a long song

One.

Sitting on the high hall was a man, propping his head with one hand, wearing a fresh crown and tassels, and a crimson robe, but the bright colors couldn't hide his gloomy face.

Qi Xian who was standing under the steps asked, "Is King Huai worried about the destruction of Dingtao?"

King Huai of Chu looked over with melancholy eyes, his slender arms tensed abnormally, and said, "Dingtao was broken, and Xiang Liang died. What's going on in this world? His nephew He is also extremely cruel, how can a person like Gu be able to control him."

Qi Xian walked a few steps, thought for a while and said, "King Huai, I heard that Song Yi had discussed with Lord Wu Xin that he would be defeated on this trip, but Lord Wu Xin didn't think so. After a few days, Lord Wu Xin was defeated and died. You can see the signs of defeat before the army goes out, Song Yi should be said to be very proficient in marching and fighting. I think that Song Yi can be the general to suppress Xiang Yu's spirit."

King Huai of Chu glanced at him, his eyes light and light, and his voice seemed dreamy: "Then Song Yi is a Confucian scholar, how can he hold back someone like Xiang Yu?"

Qi Xian said: "Looking at the current situation, although Pei Gong's military strength is inferior to that of Xiang Yu, he is generous and kind, and he is quite popular. I think that King Huai can make an agreement with the generals that the one who enters Guanzhong first will be the king, and then Song Yi will lead Xiang Yu to the north to rescue him." Zhao and Peigong Xilue entered the pass, let the two tigers fight each other, King Huai can reap the benefits."

King Huai of Chu frowned, and said, "Xiang Yu is not a fool, it's so obvious..."

"King Huai, although Xiang Yu is not stupid, he is not a smart person either. He is self-willed and determined to go his own way. This time he is facing Qin Jun, and he bears the vengeance of killing his uncle, so he will have no objection." Qi Xian said, thinking about what happened before. With the beautiful smiling face of the man who came to look for me for a few days, and the fine jade biscuit that was pushed into his sleeve with soft hands, the words that man said to him were unconsciously carried in his mouth, " This time, Duke Pei must enter the pass first, and Xiang Yu has a strong character, so there will be a fight between the two sides. Even if Duke Pei really presides over Guanzhong as king, with his generous temperament, he will definitely not make it difficult for King Huai."

The melancholy brows were relieved, and Wang Huai said: "Tomorrow, the generals will go to the palace."

two.

Liu Ji stood on the hillside looking at Gaoguan from a distance, listening to the reports from the scouts.

He looked back, thought for a while, and asked Zhang Liang beside him, "Zifang, I have [-] soldiers on hand now, do you think I can beat this pass?"

Zhang Liang took a step forward and said with a helpless smile: "Pei Gong, this is close to Xianyang, and the Qin army's defense is very strong. We must not take it lightly. What's more, the Qin army is known as the tiger and wolf division. We have [-] pairs Twenty thousand is too risky."

Liu Ji had always trusted Zhang Liang and listened to him in almost everything, so he felt stupid at the moment, and hurriedly asked: "Then what should I do? This is very close to Guanzhong, so I have to attack it quickly. It is said that the first to enter Guanzhong is the king!"

"Don't be impatient, Mr. Pei. This matter is very simple." Zhang Liang stretched out his hand and gently touched Liu Ji's arm comfortingly, and said with a calm smile, "I heard that the general at Gaoguan is the son of a butcher, and the merchant Those who come from the family are usually more interested in profit. I think we can let some soldiers go first, and the cook camp will prepare meals for 5 people, and the rest of the soldiers will occupy multiple banners on the surrounding hills, as suspicious soldiers, and kill their vigor."

Speaking of this, Zhang Liang breathed a sigh of relief, suppressed the last rising tone, and smiled calmly at Liu Ji: "Then we need Mr. Guangye, Mr. Guangye is very eloquent, let him take the precious Treasures go to bribe that Qin general, and now the victory or defeat depends entirely on Guangye Jun's mouth."

Liu Ji's eyes lit up when he heard that, he looked at the beautiful face in front of him, couldn't help but grabbed his hand excitedly and said: "Ovary! You are really God-given to me! Just do as you say! "

Zhang Liang let him hold his hand, the smile on his face remained unchanged, he only pulled his hand out without a trace while discussing with the over-excited Pei Gong.

three.

Cen Shuang accepted the meeting gift from the gray-bearded old man in front of him, which was equivalent to accepting the proposal from the person behind him.Cen Shuang played with the gold horse riding swallow for a while, and couldn't help but feel more and more happy.He secretly thought in his heart, I have been a general here for a long time, but Mao didn't get it.This Liu Ji just rebelled in a small place, and there are such good things.If I go to Xianyang with him, there will be many beauties and treasures in Efang Palace.Liu Ji has more soldiers and horses than me, and he will definitely be the main one at that time. Even if he doesn't get any official position in the end, at least he can make a small fortune!

Thinking of this, Cen Shuang turned his head and said: "Mr. Guangye, to be honest, I have had enough of this Qin thief's violence! He repairs that ruined palace every day, and his military salary can't be paid by him. What fool is willing to give it to him?" Do it! That's why I really admire Peigong's act of breaking into Guanzhong, otherwise, you go back and tell Peigong, let's join hands and go west to take Xianyang!"

Li Shiqi cupped his hands and said with a flattering smile: "General Cen really understands righteousness! Peigong is now in a critical period, but there are not enough troops, and I don't know how hard it is along the way. If the general can help, Peigong will be grateful, and Xianyang will be broken soon. !"

Cen Shuang laughed loudly and said, "Okay, Mr. Guangye, let's go back. Tell Pei Gong that the gate of the city will be opened for him on time at the first hour of the unitary hour."

four.

At the beginning of the unitary hour.

Fan Kuai stood in front of the army and led the soldiers behind him slowly into the city.

The flags were flying, Zhao Ying and Cen Shuang stood on the city wall, watching the blackness on the ground.

wrong!Zhao Ying suddenly had a shock in his heart, he was also considered a veteran, and upon closer inspection, he found that the number of this army was smaller than what he saw when he was looking at the hills and raising the flag, and now it was no more than 2 people.

He hurriedly said to Cen Shuang beside him: "General, this number is wrong. The general saw that Liu Ji was bluffing earlier, thinking that he would be defeated, and let them go because of the people in the city. Now it seems that there is a fraud in it. We We can annihilate them in one fell swoop when they enter the city."

Cen Shuang unhurriedly glanced down the city, patted Zhao Ying on the shoulder and said with a smile, "General Zhao has good eyesight, he is indeed a veteran honed on the battlefield! But..." Before the words were finished, Zhao Ying felt that With a pain in his waist, he opened his eyes wide and looked down, and a gleaming dagger pierced his abdomen.

Zhao Ying couldn't believe it.In the blink of an eye, he thought that Cen Shuang had been on the battlefield longer than him, and he could see that it was unreasonable, but Cen Shuang hadn't seen it yet.Could it be that he colluded with that bastard Liu Ji?

At this juncture, Zhao Ying unknowingly developed infinite strength.He pulled out the dagger on his body, and stabbed Cen Shuang in front of him before he had time to retreat.Cen Shuang didn't have time to dodge, and was stabbed in the face. A pair of hateful eyes widened and looked at him. He thought that Pei Gong had fewer soldiers and horses, and he could also occupy a place after entering Xianyang, at least equally.Who knows that people are not as good as heaven, and now all of this has to be a wedding dress for others!

Cen Shuang closed his eyes unwillingly.

Zhao Ying's abdomen was bleeding profusely, which had completely stained the lower half of his armor.Holding his last breath, he shouted: "Shoot arrows and defend the city!" He collapsed due to excessive blood loss.

Most of the soldiers in the city had not had time to react to this sudden change.A few quick-witted people had already started shooting with their bows, so they drew their bows and shouted, "Archery! Defend the city!"

A sharp whistle sounded.

Fan Kuai raised his hand: "Siege the city!"

Pei Gong's army was halfway into the city, and Fan Kui took the lead, and was the first to charge up the city wall, killing all directions.Later, the soldiers kept coming, killing all the people on both sides of the city gate, and letting in the rear half of the army like opening a gate to release a flood.After two hours of fighting, the unprepared Qin army was quickly captured in the dark, and the wall of Gaoguan City was replaced with the flag of Pei Gong.

"It's still Zifang who knows things like a god!" Liu Ji said happily to Zhang Liang, his eyes were full of trust and admiration for him, "If Zifang didn't say that this was just a general's betrayal, there might be a change in the bottom, we must take the opportunity to break the city, Lao Tzu I’m afraid I’ll end up here today!” After speaking, Liu Ji remembered that he had said vulgar words.His ovary used to be the son of Xiangguo from South Korea. He had a prominent family background and learned etiquette well. Will he be angry now?

Liu Ji secretly went to see him, touched his head in embarrassment and said: "Hey, I'm so excited, I feel a little..."

Zhang Liang was funny looking at him like this, and he also understood how this Duke Pei was considerate of him.It's just that his country was ruined 12 years ago, and he is no longer a prince. The former etiquette is still a habit.

Zhang Liang laughed and said, "Is Liang such a pedantic and sour person who only pays attention to etiquette all day long? Pei Gong has a true temperament and treats Liang kindly. How can he be angry when Liang is happy? Or is it that Pei Gong treats Liang as a As an outsider, do you think Liang is so stingy?" After speaking, Zhang Liang frowned slightly, his pale face became more and more picturesque under the light of the torch at night, and there was a hint of grievance between the eyebrows and the corners of the eyes.

Liu Ji's mouth was dry for a while.

When he was a pavilion head, he liked to have sex with those beautiful widows and daughters-in-law in the village, so he has always known his greedy and lustful problem.When Liu Ji saw Zhang Liang for the first time, his heart was shocked, and he was much more polite to him than to other annoying Confucian scholars.Now, after getting acquainted with his ovary, he knew that Zhang Liang was not only beautiful, but he didn't have the airs and bad temper of those stinky scholars, and he was also very smart. Liu Ji respected and obeyed him more and more.Seeing his aggrieved appearance now, he felt guilty for a moment and didn't know where to put his hands.He stammered a little: "The ovary..."

Zhang Liang chuckled and said, "Liang Fang was just joking, and I hope Pei Gong won't take it to heart. It's getting late, Pei Gong should hurry up and count the soldiers with Officer Xiao and the others. If there are reports of deserters, our situation will be more difficult. "

Liu Jiru woke up from a dream, and hurriedly said: "Yes, I have to go there quickly, Lao Xiao and the others are still waiting for me! Zifang, you should go back to your room to sleep, you are not in good health, this day is really hard for you." , hurried away.

Zhang Liang was indeed tired, so he found an empty room and went to sleep.

Fives.

Anyang.

Fan Zeng squeezed the military newspaper and said with a sneer: "What a Zhang Liang! Go down to Wancheng first, and then break through the Yaoguan Pass. He lightly smashed two such dangerous and difficult bones. On this journey westward, all the cities are waiting for the wind. Next. If there is no him, that rascal will die in Wancheng. Now it is good, if the march over there is fast, in a few days, Liu Ji will be able to enter the pass!"

After finishing speaking, Fan Zeng took a breath, showed a tired look, and murmured: "Attack front and back, not tired of deceit. Zhang Liang is really thoughtful and skillful. It's a pity that it was Liu Ji's side. People." After speaking, the cheeks on both sides were clenched tightly, and it seemed that there was a killing intent.

Han Xin, who came up to the table, trembled.

It's him again.

This person seems to show his talent to the world all the time, so that others either admire and rely on him as the center, or wish to eradicate him quickly, or, being admired and hated secretly by someone like Han Xin.

And no matter what kind of relationship, the cause is nothing more than because this person is too dazzling, and his plans are extremely open and aboveboard, Zhijiaoren has no choice but to bow down.

After hearing this, Xiang Yu turned away from his previous mania, and was terribly quiet at this moment.

They have stayed in Anyang for forty days without advancing.Xiang Yu once argued with the general Song Yi and asked to join forces with the Zhao army and defeat the Qin army, but he dismissed it: "The gadfly that can bite a big cow can't hurt the gnat. Now Qin is attacking Zhao. The Qin army wins, and the soldiers will also Weary. We can use their exhaustion to attack; if we cannot win, we will lead the troops to beat the drums and march westward, and we will definitely annihilate the Qin army. Therefore, it is better to let Qin and Zhao fight each other first, and we can reap the benefits. If we talk about tenacity Rui, fighting bravely on the front line, I am not as good as you; if you are sitting in the military account, planning and making decisions, you are not as good as me. Now, you still have to listen to me."

After returning that day, Xiang Yu lost his temper and called Song Yi a coward and a hypocrite.Han Xin quite agrees with the general's idea, marching and fighting should not be rash, like Song Yi's style of fighting, they have a great chance of winning, but it takes a lot of time.It's a pity that Xiang Yu harbored the revenge of the Qin army for killing Xiang Liang, and he wanted to enter Guanzhong and become king, so I'm afraid he won't listen.

If it were him in the past, Han Xin would want to advise Xiang Yu and advise him not to rush forward.But since...

He thought of that night, the whisper whispered in his ears, and the thin silhouette illuminated by the bonfire.

I was in a trance for a while, and there was a strange feeling in my heart that I couldn't explain clearly.

Han Xin paused, lifted the curtain and went out of the tent.
