Chapter 113 The worst plan

Ao Cang, Liang Jun camp.

Liu Bang and Lv Ze waited in the Liang Army camp until the evening when Peng Yue sent a flying cavalry to Yangjun to chase Tian Heng, and finally came back, but brought back an extremely amazing news. Tian Heng did not go to Yangjun to collect grain at all, but turned around and headed north halfway and went directly to Beina Mountain!

Obviously, Tian Heng did nothing about the assassination in Beinashan.

Chen Ping bowed to Peng Yue and said, "King Liang, the truth about the assassination in Beina Mountain has been revealed at this point. This is clearly what Kuai Che made to intervene Tian Heng. The purpose is nothing more than to provoke King Liang and the King to fight against the Chu army so that the Chu army can take advantage of the situation. This shows that these two people have already secretly defected to Xiangzhuang."

"Tian Heng! Kuai Che!" Peng Yue was furious and recalled Peng Ming, "Peng Ming immediately sent a flying cavalry to intercept Kuai Che and Tian Heng at various intersections. I had to tear them all the bodies!"

"No!" Peng Ming responded to the promise and immediately turned around and left.

Peng Yue bowed deeply to Lv Ze again and said, "Mr. Lv Ze, I offended you a lot."

Lu Ze snorted lightly and was about to mock him a few words, but Liu Bang stopped him with a wink.

At that moment, Liu Bang, Chen Ping and Lu Ze stood up and said goodbye to Peng Yue, and went straight back to the Han army's great bodhisattva.

On the way back to the camp, Lu Ze said in a slight resentment: "King, what's wrong with this?"

Although this incident was caused by Kuai Che and Tian Heng, Peng Yue was also kept in the dark, no matter what, Peng Yue's impulse caused great losses to the Han army. After a melee, Lu Ze's 50,000 troops suffered a total of nearly 10,000 casualties, of which more than 2,000 were killed in battle. Who should I make up for such a huge loss?

"Forget it." Liu Bang sighed, "There is no need to mention this matter."

Liu Bang was actually not happy, but it was not the time to settle the old dispute with Peng Yue, right? Now even Xiang Zhuang, the mortal enemy, has not been resolved, and Han Xin has not settled it, so how could he take action to deal with Peng Yue? If Liu Bang really wants to attack Peng Yue at this time, he will really be indifferent to the main and put the cart before the horse.

When they returned to the big tent, the three kings and ministers sat down, when a noise suddenly started outside the tent.

Liu Bang asked, "Lu Ze, what's going on? Who is making a loud noise outside?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the curtain was suddenly lifted up, and then a young man in rags rushed in from outside the tent. Seeing Liu Bang, Lu Ze and Chen Ping sitting in the tent, the young man quickly knelt down on the ground and said tragically: "King, father, Mr. Chen Ping..."

"Lu Tai?" Liu Bang then recognized that the young man was actually his wife and nephew Lu Tai.

"Tai'er?!" Lv Ze was shocked and said in disbelief, "Why did you make this look?"

In the past, Lu Tai was heroic and elegant, but now Lu Tai has a scattered bun, broken clothes, and even several wounds on his face. I don’t know how it was made?

"Father." Lu Tai said sadly, "The child lost Huzhu."

"What did you say?" Lu Ze took a deep breath and said in a lost voice, "Is Hulao Pass lost?!"

Liu Bang and Chen Ping also changed slightly when they heard this. Hulao Pass is the gateway to Sanchuan County. Once Hulao Pass is lost, Sanchuan County will be without any danger! Moreover, most of the people who attacked Hulao Pass are Chen Xi. If Chen Xi's tens of thousands of rebels, Chen Xi's rebels will rush into Sanchuan County, then Sanchuan County under Lu Ze will be over.

"How could this happen?" Lu Ze said angrily, "Did you not obey your father's orders and did not dispatch troops from Luoyang to reinforce Hulao Pass, so Chen Xi's rebels took advantage of the situation and attacked Hulao Pass?"

"No, father." Lu Tai said hurriedly, "Children has already transferred five thousand elite troops from Luoyang to guard the Hulao Pass, but who would have thought that when Children was fighting fiercely with Chen Xi's rebels, another rebel suddenly broke out from behind. Although this rebel only had hundreds of people, he was extremely brave and attacked Xiguan in one fell swoop!"

"Another rebel?" Lv Ze said sternly, "Is it Chen Xi's disciple?"

"It shouldn't be." Lu Tai shook his head and said, "This rebel army is equipped with flying spears. I guess it should be the Chu army!"

"What did you say?" Liu Bang also jumped up and shouted, "Tai'er, did you just say that the rebels had flying spears?"

"Yes, flying spear!" Lu Tai nodded and said, "And, just after the child used a crossbow to destroy hundreds of rebels that broke through the pass, thousands of rebels rushed in from outside the Xiguan. This rebel army was also unparalleled. Our soldiers were no match for the enemy at all. In less than half an hour, Hulao Pass... was lost.

"Chu Army?" Liu Bang turned around suddenly, stared at Chen Ping, and said sternly, "Is it really the Chu Army?"

Chen Ping was also shocked. Emotionally, he never believed that the Chu army would suddenly appear in Hulao Pass, but reasonably told him that the Chu army should be the one who attacked Hulao Pass! Chen Xi's rebels had never used flying spears. Also, in this world, besides the Chu army in Xiangzhuang, which army could defeat the eight thousand Han troops in Hulao within half an hour?

But the question is, how did the Chu army escape from Qi?

Incredible, incredible, how did the Chu army escape?

Liu Bang asked Chen Ping again angrily and said, "Chen Ping, are you saying something?

Chen Ping sighed and whispered: "King, the ones who attacked Hulao Pass from behind were mostly the main force of the Chu army who suddenly lost tracking medicine from Qi. Now it seems that the main force of the Chu army in Xiangzhuang has not entered Qi from the beginning. When we were looking for the traces of the Chu army in Qi, Xiangzhuang led the Chu army into Sanchuan County with the Chu army!"

"So, is it really a Chu army?" Liu Bang's face turned pale and he said tragically, "It's over, it's over now, why did Xiangzhuang's main force of Chu army suddenly come out from behind Hulao Pass? In this way, the three "county, even Hangu Pass is likely to have been lost, and my Guanzhong is probably in danger of Danjian!"

Thinking of this, Liu Bang was furious and opened his mouth and vomited blood and fainted and fell to the ground.

Liu Bang had to be angry. If Xiang Zhuang really took over Guanzhong, Liu Bang would become a loser. Once the news spread, who would care about him or care about him? Not to mention ascending the throne and becoming emperor, I am afraid that even the current princes and kings will be impossible.

Chen Ping, Lu Ze and Lu Tai quickly came forward to help Liu Bang up. Lu Ze quickly summoned someone to summon the injured doctor. The injured doctor gave Liu Bang several injections one after another. Liu Bang sighed quietly and finally woke up. Then he grabbed Chen Ping's sleeve and said tragically: "Chen Ping, Chen Ping, what should I do? What should I do?"

"Don't panic," Chen Ping advised repeatedly, "Hangu Pass has definitely not been lost!"

Lv Ze also said: "Yes, king, although Hulao Pass has been lost, the situation in Sanchuan County is still unknown. As for Hangu Pass, there is also a general named Gu Feng guarding 5,000 elite soldiers. Gu Feng is cautious in nature and guarding the pass. Xiangzhuang and Wei Liao are powerful, they can't turn into birds and fly over, right?"

Liu Bang calmed down and asked Chen Ping again: "Chen Ping, what do you think?"

Chen Ping nodded and replied confidently: "Don't worry, King, Hangu Pass must have not been lost yet!"

After saying this, Chen Ping said again: "If Hangu Pass had been lost, Xiang Zhuang would have led his troops to attack Xianyang a long time ago. How could he attack Hulao Pass again?"

"Yes." Liu Bang felt relieved when he heard this.

Chen Ping said again: "The Chu army attacked Hulao Pass mostly to support Chen Xi's rebels."

"It must be like this." Lv Ze also said, "Although the Chu army is unstoppable, it is only a few thousand veterans after all. The battle between Jipu and Meiyu was fought fiercely in Jipu. Yu Ziqi took away another five hundred people, and Xiangzhuang now only has three thousand people at most. With such a small amount of troops, it is simply a delusion to attack Hangu Pass."

"So, Xiang Zhuang made his mind to Chen Xi's rebels?" Liu Bang frowned and said, "But Chen Xi's rebels are simply a group of mobs. If Xiang Zhuang's son really annexed these tens of thousands of rebels, he would not be useful at that time, he would probably become a burden to the Chu army, right?"

Chen Ping shook his head and said, "King, don't underestimate these tens of thousands of rebels."

Lv Ze also said: "Yes, king, these tens of thousands of rebels were all selected from the hungry people in Wei."

Chen Ping said again: "If these rebels were in the midst of Chen Xi, they would indeed be a mob. But once they were transferred to Xiang Zhuang, Xiang Zhuang would definitely draw veterans of the Chu army into the rebels as team leader and other low-level schools. In this way, the combat effectiveness of this rebel army will be immediately improved."

"There are also weapons and armor." Lu Tai also said, "Huzhuo Pass has been lost, and all eight thousand elite soldiers at the pass have been lost. These weapons and armor have now belonged to the rebels. If the rebels capture Luoyang again, the armor of the army stored in the Luoyang arsenal will also belong to the rebels. In this way, this rebel army will immediately become well-equipped elite soldiers."

As soon as these words were said, Liu Bang, Chen Ping and Lu Ze immediately changed their faces.

Chen Ping thought of something and asked Lu Tai urgently: "Is there a ladder in Luoyang's arsenal?"

“There are no ready-made ladders or siege cars in the Luoyang arsenal.

"Lu Tai shook his head. Just as Chen Ping and Liu Bang breathed a sigh of relief, Lu Tai changed his words and continued, "However, the Yang arsenals ordered the bus and the more than 300 carpenters under him to build ladders and siege cars, and even build wells."

"Get up",..." Chen Ping was so shocked when he heard this, and it was really troublesome now.

Once Xiang Zhuang really controls Chen Xi's tens of thousands of rebels, the fall of Luoyang is only between Dan Jian, and the weight of the armed forces in Luoyang arsenal is second. If Xiang Zhuang gets heavy siege equipment such as cloud ladders, siege cars, and well rails, it is hard to say whether Gu Feng can defend Hangu Pass. Xiang Zhuang's bravery and Wei Liao's skill in fighting are not fake.

Chen Ping said to Liu Bang: "King, it seems we have to make the worst plan."

"The worst plan?" Liu Bang said sternly when he heard this, "Chen Ping, what do you mean?"
