Chapter 1377: The Han Banner (Sixty-Seven) The Xianyang Plan

The Qin army blocking Zhou Yu's front was defeated by Zhou Yu's troops. When the news came, not only Zhou Yu, but also his generals couldn't believe it. Could it be that Xing was captured so easily? flat? Opened the door to Xianyang? Why is it so simple?

Detailed news soon came. Those who blocked them in Xingping were only the local guards recruited by Lu Chao when he fought all the way. They were not worth mentioning in terms of equipment or combat effectiveness. Wang Chaoyong, who belonged to Lu Chao, was sitting nearby. With 20,000 elite troops, not a single soldier went to Xingping to participate in this war. There was no plan to attack Zhou Yu's troops.

The thing was so weird that it made Zhou Yu worried. Although Xingping was captured, he still did not issue the order for the entire army to march to Xianyang.

This&pig&pig&island&novel {www}.{zhuzhu}{}.{} thing is too abnormal. For a veteran like Zhou Yu, abnormal things mean traps and things beyond his control. Should they station themselves on the spot, enter Xianyang, or directly attack Wang Changyong's subordinates in the road department? For Zhou Yu, he has three choices.

Of course, in Zhou Yu's opinion, the best choice is to attack Wang Changyong. In this way, he can still alleviate the crisis in Xianyang. The opponent directly gave way to Xianyang, but Zhou Yu did not dare to go.

In Xianyang, Fan Sui hurriedly ran up the high steps of Heibingtai Hall. A rare smile appeared on his gloomy face for a long time. Good news just came. Zhou Yu's Qin Wang's army has arrived. He defeated the enemies of Xingping and occupied Xingping, leaving a gap in Lu Chao's troops surrounding Xianyang.

"Okay!" After hearing Fan Sui's report, Ying Ying finally breathed a sigh of relief. As long as he has the first Qin Wang's army to come, he won't have to worry about the second and third ones. "They occupied Xingping and wiped out thousands of enemies? Good, very good. Unexpected. Unexpectedly, the first person to come to King Qin was Zhou Yu."

Ying Ying felt extremely emotional. In the Qin State, Lu Chao, Tan Feng, and Zhou Yu were all Yan people. Lu Chao was now the biggest rebel. Although Tan Feng did not raise a rebel flag, he had no intention of coming to Xianyang King Qin. , but took the opportunity to capture Tai'an. Wu Long is also a real person with evil intentions. Of course, at this time, Ying Ying had not yet received Tan Feng's nest, which had already been captured by the Han army. On the contrary, Zhou Yu, who had always been ignored by Ying Ying, actually led the army to kill him at his most difficult time.

The strong wind knows the strong grass, and the rough waves know the heroes! Yingying sighed in her heart. "Since Xingping has been captured, why hasn't Zhou Yu arrived in Xianyang yet?"

"Reporting to the king, although Xingping was captured, the traitor Wang Changyong's 20,000-strong army was still watching. Therefore, General Zhou did not dare to march rashly for a while, and wanted to stabilize Xingping before advancing. The victory document written by General Zhou stated The purpose is to prepare to attack Wang Changyong's troops to contain the enemies besieging Xianyang," said Fan Sui.

"Wang Changyong is just a partial master.

Since he was on the Xingping side and did not dare to attack General Zhou, he was obviously afraid of General Zhou's strength, and General Zhou should not quarrel with him. Our main enemy is Lu Chao's troops in the front. We immediately sent an order for General Zhou to lead his troops to Xianyang. General Zhou has 50,000 iron troops under his command, plus 30,000 Xuanyi guards, who are ready to fight the bandits without fear. As long as Lu Chao is defeated, what will happen to the rest of the rebel army will naturally be decided by word of mouth. "Ying Ying waved his hand and said majesticly. He was originally a leader and had been immersed in the army for many years. Now that he has enough troops on hand, his intention to confront Lu Chao was immediately exposed.

"Your Majesty, what General Zhou said is not unreasonable. If General Zhou's 50,000 troops attack Wang Changyong with all their strength, they will definitely be defeated. By then, the flanks of the thieves will be exposed to General Zhou." Fan Sui said.

Ying Ying laughed: "Chief Assistant, you don't understand military affairs. Since Wang Changyong is afraid of General Zhou's military power and dare not attack, it will be impossible for General Zhou to seek a decisive battle with him. If General Zhou moves, he will definitely return shrink, and the thieves will definitely turn around to find General Zhou for a decisive battle. Our 30,000 Xuanyi guards in Xianyang City cannot go to the rescue at will. Xianyang must be our foundation. If the Xuanyi guards go to rescue and Lu Chao makes a sneak attack If we succeed, it would be a waste of time. Our first priority now is to defend Xianyang and fight against the bandits under Xianyang. If Lu Chao mobilizes a large force to attack General Zhou, we will be passive. "

After a pause, he continued: "There is no peace in the city. In the past few days, Mingtai has discovered and arrested many people. There are many aristocratic families here. Da Qin treats them badly. They actually want to collude with thieves inside and outside. "It's really unbearable!" Ying Ying said angrily: "This is one of the reasons why I dare not mobilize the army out of the city. With Xuanyi guards in the city, those with evil intentions can be suppressed."

"In this case, the minister will immediately send a message to Zhou Yu, asking him to immediately raise troops and rush to Xianyang!" Fan Sui said.

"Yes, let Zhou Yu be careful all the way. The journey from Xingping is not short, and the thieves will definitely not let him get there so easily." Ying Ying nodded and warned.

Reinforcements have arrived, and the tense Xianyang City has finally relaxed. More and more people are walking around on the streets. Some of the people coming and going also show some smiles. Thirty thousand Xuanyi guards, facing With several times the attack from their army, everyone in the city was originally worried. The king has issued a mobilization order for the whole city. All men who are taller than a riding whip must prepare to go to the city to defend against the enemy. Shopkeeper Su at the gate of the city, He also went to the armory to get a spear. His shop was not far from the city wall, and he would be the first group of people to step on the ground to guard the city wall. These days, the woman in the house was crying like a tearful person every day, just because of fear. After Shopkeeper Su walked up the city wall, he could no longer return home.

When the reinforcements arrived, Shopkeeper Su also had a smile on his face. As long as there were enough troops, those of them who had never been soldiers or fought in the war would naturally not have to go to the battlefield. He looked at the soldiers walking past the shop in a happy mood. They greeted each other loudly: "Good evening everyone, we will definitely be able to defend Xianyang and defeat the rebels."

The officer who was passing by his shop raised his head and glanced at him in surprise, and smiled at him, "Good evening, of course I can guard it."

"If we work hard, we will definitely be able to hold on!" Shopkeeper Su clenched his fist and waved. He lifted the spear leaning against the door with his other hand, slammed it hard on the ground, and said loudly.

"It seems that the people in Xianyang City are quite enthusiastic about fighting!" Next to the officer, a man who looked like a soldier whispered.

"Are you high? It wasn't like this a few days ago. Didn't you hear that Zhou Yu is coming?" A sarcastic smile appeared on the officer's face, "Master Gou must have been bored during this time. It will be over soon. Zhou Yu is here. This... The drama has officially begun. Hey, hey, I, Mingtai, am about to realize my long-cherished wish. How happy it is!"

One of these two people is Mingtai, the commander of Heibingtai, and the other, at first glance, looks very different from Gou Yi. However, if he is someone who is very familiar with Gou Yi, upon closer inspection, he can still tell that Recognizing his silhouette, Lu Chao's confidant general suddenly appeared in Xianyang City.

The two returned to Mingtai's mansion, closed the door, and had a banquet. Gou Yi also lost his disguise and returned to his true self.

"Brother Ming, I'd like to toast you. The great revenge is about to be avenged, so congratulations!" Gou Yi said with a smile.

"Thank you, Brother Gou. However, if you travel a hundred miles, you will only be able to make a mistake at the last moment. Brother Gou knows that the further you go, the more difficult it will be. Everything in front of you is all foreshadowing. This is the final blow. If this step is not done well, all the previous efforts will be in vain!" Mingtai's face showed no joy, "But for your good luck, I will drink this glass of wine."

"The general absolutely believes that with Brother Ming's ability, there will be no problem in handling this matter, otherwise we would not have come with a large army. Brother Ming also knows that if Xianyang wants to attack Xianyang hard, there is really no guarantee, even if it is Without Zhou Yu's tens of thousands of troops and horses, and only 30,000 Xuanyi guards, it would be difficult to win. We seem to be in a strong position now, but in fact we are in great danger. The key lies in brother Ming, otherwise when he comes back from the predicament in vain, we will But we have been attacked several times, and we are afraid that the wolf will run like a rat and run back to Hangu Pass," Gou Yi said.

"I have been planning painstakingly for decades, just for this day. Every step, every link, I don't know how many times I have considered it in the dark night. Now every step is in our calculation. When the moment comes, I will never show up." Any questions." Mingtai stood up, raised the wine glass in his hand, looked at the sky, bent down, and poured the wine on the ground: "The ancestors of the Chen family, the spirits in heaven, please bless the child to achieve great things and fill the whole family for the Chen family. revenge."

Seeing Mingtai like this, Gou Yi quickly stood up, looked at the sky, bowed his head to the ground, and spilled the wine on the ground.

Sitting down again, Mingtai served a glass of wine for Gou Yiman, "There is one thing I don't understand. According to our original expectations, Hangu Pass should be in a bitter stalemate with the Han people at this moment, but why is it so peaceful now? What? I don't believe that one Wang Jian can contain Jinyang's tens of thousands of powerful soldiers. Not to mention Wang Jian's strength, I just say that he needs to cross the desert to attack, and 100% of his troops will be 60 to 70%. How big of a threat can it pose if used for logistical support?”

"Sure enough, I can't hide it from Brother Ming." Gou Yi said with a smile, "When I came this time, the general also said that if Brother Ming asks, just tell Brother Ming directly. Now, except for the Han people, we Only the general, General Xu and Gou know about it. Speaking of it, there are definitely not more than ten people in the world who know about it. But the general said that Brother Ming is absolutely trustworthy."

Mingtai smiled slightly: "I guess you must have reached some kind of agreement with Gao Yuan, but I really can't guess what the agreement is. What kind of temptation made Gao Yuan willing to let go and take advantage of this great opportunity to capture Hangu? Guan, the great achievement of defeating the Qin State in civil strife? "

Gou Yi smiled, put his head to Mingtai's ear, and whispered. As he spoke, Mingtai's eyes opened wider and wider. (To be continued.)
