Chapter 44: Nanshanzi who suddenly appeared

Liu Bang saw that the army was violent, and he already had the heart to die.

Suddenly, a horse broke away from the march and went straight to Liu Bang. Liu Bang fixed his eyes and saw that it was Xiao He!

Xiao He came to the front, turned over and dismounted, and said bitterly: "Pei Gong, Pei County is trapped and is about to be captured!" He took more than 600 people and brought Pei Gong's wife to stand out from the encirclement! ”

Liu Bang's eyes darkened, and he fell straight down.

When he woke up and saw Xiao He in front of him, he said leisurely: "I'll wait for only one way to die!" ”

Xiao He comforted: "Pei Gong doesn't have to be like this, now there is one person who can save the dead!" ”

Liu Bang's eyes widened suddenly, and he quickly got up and asked, "Now that there is a strong city in front and a large army in the back, how can I turn around?" ”

Xiao He waved his hand and brought in a personable young man. The young man was followed by two attendants, and at first glance he was a master of one enemy and one hundred.

Liu Bangqi said: "Who are you?" ”

The young man arched his hand and said: "In Xia Nanshanzi, I have seen Pei Gong." ”

Liu Bang looked at Xiao He strangely, could it be that the turning point in his mouth was this young man?

Xiao He opened his mouth and said: "Pei Gong Mo looks at Mr. Nanshan's youth, but Mr. Nanshan is a descendant of Guigu, so why not have his strategies." ”

"The reason why He was able to bring 600 people to see Pei Gong was all due to Mr. Nanshan's strategy. When the Qin army arrived in Pei County, they saw that the army of Pei County was invincible, and they were helpless for a while. ”

At this time, Mr. Nanshan found He, covered the straw man with armor, and pretended to be a suspicious soldier. He also made oxen and horses haul grass and raise smoke and dust as a sign for reinforcements to come. For a while, he actually bluffed the Qin army, so that he did not dare to rush into the army, and he was able to get out of Peixian. ”

When Liu Bang heard this, he hurriedly got up and said, "Thank you Mr. Nanshan for your help." If there is no husband, Xiao He and Bang's wives and children will die in Qin Junye. ”

Nanshanzi arched his hand and said: "I admired the name of Pei Gong for a long time, and when I knew that Pei Gong was in trouble, I rushed from Nanjun to seek great things with Pei Gong. ”

Liu Bang hurriedly asked, "Now that I am trapped in such a Jedi, does Mr. Nanshan have a good plan?" ”

Nanshanzi pondered for a while and said: "For today's plan, we must get out of this place first, once the Qin army of Pei County chases after us, we can only sit and wait for death." ”

Liu Bang smiled bitterly: "Mr. Nanshan probably doesn't know, Shao Zhen, the county guard of Dangjun, can be described as extremely difficult, I wanted to withdraw the army several times, but he was bitten by him, and when he turned around and wanted a decisive battle, he retracted back to the city." Otherwise, the state would not have ended up in such a situation. ”

Nanshanzi smiled indifferently: "There is a plan below." Pei Gong could order the soldiers to bring only three days' dry rations, discard the grain, grass, and camp tents, and travel lightly, and quietly withdraw at night. Looking down, there will be dark clouds covering the moon tonight, and it is expected that the Qin army will not be able to detect it. ”

Before Liu Bang could speak, Xiao He frowned and said: "If you discard the camp tent, the soldiers can still sleep on the ground, and you can't do it with only three days of dry food." Even if our army is out of danger, what about three days later? Compared with being trapped here, the army is in a worse situation than being trapped here. ”

Liu Bang agreed: "When marching and fighting, the most important thing is grain and grass, once the food is cut off, the sergeants will mutiny." ”

But I couldn't help but be suspicious in my heart: 'This person appeared quite strangely, and he specially selected the Qin army to offer a plan when he came to the city, and now he wants my army to give up the heavy grain and grass, isn't it uneasy and kind?' ’

Nanshanzi seemed to have expected it, and responded: "The withdrawal of troops is just a plan. This place is only 500 miles away from Xiangxian, and the soldiers are not burdened by baggage, and three days are enough to reach Xiangxian. ”

"The main force of the Qin army is still in Pei County, according to the investigation of the entourage, when the Qin army set off from Xiang County, all the soldiers of Surabaya County were incorporated into the army of Guanzhong and taken away, and there were only a few hundred county soldiers stationed in Xiang County at this time, which was no different from the empty city."

"If Pei Gong leads the army to raid Xiang County, it is expected that Surabaya County will be unable to resist Ji Zhuang. Xiangxian is the county guard, with abundant armaments, grain and grass, and high walls and strong cities. At that time, the capture of Xiangxian County, and then try to countermeasure, the plan can be achieved! ”

When Xiao He heard this, he changed his hesitant attitude and praised: "Mr. Nanshan is really a god and a man, how can he be feasible." ”

Liu Bang was also overjoyed to see Xiao He's approval, and bowed down and said: "Bang is fortunate to have Mr. help, and he will not forget Mr. Kindness." ”

The corners of Nanshanzi's mouth raised slightly: "I am willing to serve Pei Gong." ”

Then Liu Bang arranged a matter of affairs, took advantage of the night to cover the stars and the moon, quietly led the army to withdraw, and rushed to Xiangxian in the starry night.

The more than 100 people who were left to confuse the Qin army also took advantage of the night to withdraw the next day, leaving only an empty camp for Wang Shaozhen and Qi Liang.

After nearly two days of hurrying, Liu Bang had approached Xiangxian, ordered the army to rest on the spot, and immediately attacked Xiangxian after the scouts reported and rested.

In Liu Bang's tent, Nan Shanzi and Xiao He sat opposite each other and ate.

After eating a few bites, Nanshanzi put down the chopsticks in his hand and said: "In the past few days, I realized that the rumors are true, and Pei Gong is really a talent. ”

Liu Bang said with a smile: "Mr. has an overreputation, the state is just a country man, and everyone will not give up and swear to follow, so that there is today." If it weren't for the help of Mr. and others, Bang would still be drinking dew and eating fruits in the Mangdang Mountains. ”

When Xiao He heard this, he imperceptibly showed a displeased expression.

Nanshanzi asked: "I heard that the reason why Pei Gong fell into the grass was caused by private pawns. Now the second emperor seems to be different from Yingzheng, quite a bit of a virtuous name, if the second emperor pardons Pei Gong, I don't know what Pei Gong thinks? ”

Liu Bang laughed: "Mr. doesn't have to test Bang. Bang Ben is a free and easy person, and he wants to be a pavilion chief and a small official, and he can also seek benefits for the villagers in the pavilion, but this world is unfair. On the way to escort the soldiers, Bang saw that the soldiers were really pitiful, and he couldn't bear to bury them in the north, so he let them go privately. ”

"I wanted to hide in the mountains with my brothers from then on, and I also wanted to be happy."

After a moment of conversation, he said angrily: "But unexpectedly, the imperial court indiscriminately slaughtered the people, killing and wounding more than 200 people. Tyrannical Qin is so unreasonable, Bang simply rose up to seek justice for the world! ”

Nanshanzi was curious when he heard this: "I heard that it was because the people of Surabaya Pavilion killed the officials of the imperial court that the county lieutenant sent troops to suppress the people. And this county lieutenant disappeared after slaughtering so many people, didn't Pei Gong feel that there might be something strange in it? ”

Liu Bang said angrily: "What can be wrong!" Since the second emperor ascended the throne, it has indeed greatly reduced the forced labor, and also promoted many agricultural tools for the world, Bang Yuan thought that this second emperor was different from the first emperor, maybe a good emperor. ”

"But how dare the county lieutenant massacre the people without an order from the imperial court? In the final analysis, whoever is the emperor of this Great Qin is the same, and the people will never have a good life! ”

Nanshanzi smiled when he heard this: "In this way, I will be at ease in the future." As long as Pei Gong is for the people of the world, he will definitely help him. ”

After Nanshanzi left, Xiao He thought for a while and said to Liu Bang: "Pei Gong, why listen to this Nanshanzi's words, which have the meaning of excusing the second emperor, why worry about ......"

Liu Bang nodded: "I feel the same way." ”

Just as he was about to continue to express his worries, the scout suddenly came to report: now there are only 300 defenders in Xiangxian County, and since the Qin army put down the rebellion in Sanxian, the city gate has resumed normal entry and exit.

After listening to this, Liu Bang said to Xiao He: "And no matter what purpose this person has, since the situation of Xiangxian has been confirmed, without further ado, let's talk about it after taking Xiangxian!" ”
