Chapter 82 Zhao Dilangyan

Wu She looked at Wei Liao, then Xiang Zhuang, and asked, "General, are you still going to Handan?"

Xiang Zhuang pondered for a moment and said to Wei Liao: "Military advisor, why don't you go to Handan and go directly to Huguan?"

Wei Liao shook his head and sighed: "General, if Zhang Liang really sees through his old strategy, how could he just set up his pockets in Handan? For our army's next move, he will definitely make pre-arrangements. Huguan is a natural danger. If our army can capture it in one fell swoop, it would be fine. If it cannot be captured and is trapped in the Huguan Canyon by the Han and Zhao armies, it will be damned."

"What should I do?" Wu She frowned and said, "You can't go to Handan, and Huguan can't do either. Can you go to Yandi?"

Xiangzhuang and Wei Liao smiled bitterly at the same time. Of course, the Chu army could not go to Yan land. Yan land was far away from the heartland of the Central Plains, with a large area of ​​sparse population, and difficult supply. How to survive at that time is a problem. Moreover, Yan land is frequently facing the border, and it is possible to encounter the Huns Hu cavalry at any time. If the Chu army really went to Yan land, it would be exactly what Liu Bang had.

Wu She paused and said, "How about you, go back to Qi?"

"Absolutely not!" Xiang Zhuang said decisively, "Han Xin has probably returned to Qi. If he kills back to Qi at this time, isn't he going to rush flies on the tiger's head and seeking death?" It's not that Xiang Zhuang is self-deprecating. Han Xin's ability to general soldiers is rare in history. Just by facing Han Xin's hundreds of thousands of troops, he will definitely be alive without death.

Wei Liao sighed and said helplessly: "General, he is still a soldier."

The Chu army still had few soldiers. If there were many soldiers and 50,000 elite soldiers, they could completely divide the troops into two groups, attacking Handan with great fanfare, attracting the attention of Liu Bang and all the princes, and the other was directly attacking Huguan, siege Han, and then heading straight from Hedong to Guanzhong. At that time, no matter how unwilling Liu Bang was, he could only return to Guanzhong in a hurry.

Once Liu Bang returned to Guanzhong, his power to sweep the world would be broken.

After Wei Liao finished speaking, he looked at Xiangzhuang at the same time with Wu She. His final idea must be Xiangzhuang to get it.

Xiang Zhuang was silent. It was already this time. Is there still a way out? He stretched his head and shrank his head or a knife. It would be better to move forward bravely. Maybe he could even break out of the desperate situation! Handan should not go to the ground, Zhao should not plunder, Huguan should not go down, Guanzhong should not go even if he didn't say anything, fight!

Xiang Zhuang shouted: "I won't go to Handan anymore, just go to Huguan!"

After saying this, Xiang Zhuang said again, "The army does not need to hide its traces. The population ahead is dense, and it is impossible to hide its traces. Then ask for open fire to march quickly. Maybe it can still get a fish-eye and pass the test!"

In the eastern suburbs of Ye County, Zhou Bo's 20,000 elite soldiers were winding towards Handan along the way.

Zhou Bo's army headed north, and the beacon towers densely spread across Ye County lit up wolf smoke to warn Handan.

The county magistrate of Ye County has received a secret order from King Zhao. Whether it is the Han army or the Chu army, as long as they find a large army entering Zhao, they will ignite the beacon and warn them. At the same time, all the city gates will be closed. All the soldiers in the city and the powerful people will climb the city and take strict precautions. The Zhao army did this to prevent the Chu army from passing the pass, and also to guard against the Han army taking the opportunity to capture the city of Zhao.

After all, Zhang Er only admitted that he was an ally of Liu Bang, but did not consider himself a minister of Liu Bang.

Amid the rapid sound of horse hooves, a young general in white robe urged the horse to come to the Han general Zhou Bo, and pointed the whip in his hand at the low city wall of Ye County and said to Zhou Bo: "My father led a large army to Zhaodi to help the war. The county magistrate of Ye County not only did not appreciate it, but also guarded us like a thief. It was so easy to be indistinguishable. Why wouldn't the child lead the troops to fight?"

"Guanfu is not allowed to make trouble!" Zhou Bo shouted softly, but his tone was full of spoiling.

Zhou Guanfu is Zhou Bo's only son (Zhou Yafu has not been born at this time). He just arrived in Zhou Bo's army not long ago.

Zhou Guanfu just turned 17 this year. He has a face like a jadeite and a starry star. He is extremely heroic. He is eight feet and five inches tall. He is extremely powerful. He can open a seven-stone hard bow. He is good at using a pair of short halberds. He has the courage of ten thousand men! Zhou Bo named his son Guanfu because he hopes that his son can be braver. He doesn't want to grow up and be braver. Zhou Bo couldn't help but be unhappy.

Although he was scolded by his father, Zhou Guanfu didn't care and said, "Father, was Fan Kuai really killed by Xiang Zhuang?"

Her erect face immediately became extremely serious and said in a deep voice, "Fan Kuai is not brave enough to be under Xiang Yu, but she was still killed by Xiang Zhuang in the battle formation. If you meet Xiang Zhuang in front of the formation in the future, don't be able to compete with each other, do you know?"

"Father, the child is not afraid of Xiangzhuang." Zhou Guanfu raised the two iron halberds in his hand and shouted, "The pair of iron halberds in his hand should kill all the heroes in the world. How can Xiangzhuang be just right?"

"Don't talk nonsense!" Zhou Bo finally changed his face and shouted sternly, "You are so arrogant at such a young age?"

When Zhou Guanfu saw that Zhou Bo was really angry, he lowered his head and stopped talking, but he was still dissatisfied. He thought that if he really met Xiang Zhuang on the battlefield in the future, he would have to kill the generals in front of the formation! It is said that Xiang Zhuang is the best in the world now. If Xiang Zhuang is killed, wouldn’t Zhou Guanfu be the new best in the world?

On the left side of Shaqiuyi, on the bank of Zhang River, five thousand Chu troops were advancing westward!

In order to seize the time as much as possible, Xiangzhuang decided to give up the marching method of hiding day and night, and instead marched quickly during the day. The marching route no longer took remote paths, but marched straight along the main road. More than 100 cavalry and scouts had all been sent out. First, to investigate the enemy situation, and second, to drive away pedestrians on the road ahead and clear obstacles for the army to march.

However, the army had just crossed the Zhang River, and an unexpected situation suddenly occurred!

Xiangzhuang was riding a black horse. As the group of people was moving slowly, Wei Yuewuyang, who was riding in front of his saddle, suddenly shouted: "Husband, look, it seems like a wolf smoke?"

"Wolf smoke?" Xiang Zhuang suddenly felt a stern when he heard this. He looked in a hurry in the direction of Wei Yuewuyang's finger. Sure enough, he saw a small earth platform a few miles south. A striking thick smoke had soared from the sky from the earth platform. Isn't it wolf smoke?

Wei Liao, Wu She, Huan Chu, Ji Bu, and Yu Ziqi, who were following Xiang Zhuang on horseback, also changed one after another.

"General, there are wolf smokes farther there!" Soon, another soldier shouted further away from his fingers.

In fact, without the need for the personal soldiers to remind you, Xiang Zhuang, Wei Liao and others have already seen it. Langyan warned, this is definitely a wolfyan warning! It seems that Wei Liao's worries have become a fact. Zhang Liang has seen through his strategy, and Zhao is already prepared. It is impossible for the Chu army to think that Qiao Zhuang Han Army will pass the test again!

After less than half a cup of tea, Gongsun then rushed back from the south with more than ten cavalry.

There was a Zhao army barely pressing in front of Gongsun Sui's saddle. When he arrived in front of Xiangzhuang, Gongsun Sui knocked the Zhao army barely to the ground, and then bowed to Xiangzhuang to report: "General, the villain pulled out a beacon tower in the south, beheaded two people, and arrested a living!"

The young man from Zhao army turned over and knelt on the ground, kowtowed repeatedly and begged for mercy: "God of your life, general, please spare your life..."

Xiang Zhuang rode his horse to the young master and said in a deep voice: "I am asking you something. If you answer truthfully, you will be alive. If there is a lie, you will be killed immediately!"

The young man from Zhao Jun said repeatedly: "The villain must answer truthfully."

Xiang Zhuang pointed to the beacon tower that was pulled out by Gongsun Sui not far away and asked, "When was this beacon tower built? Who asked you to build it?"

"This beacon tower was built five days ago and was ordered by the county magistrate."

The Zhao army soldier said this and said, "The villain also heard that not only Julu County has built many beacon towers, but also Handan County in the south and Hengshan County in the north have also built many beacon towers. The county magistrate clearly ordered that as long as a large group of people enter Zhao, whether it is the Yan army, Qi army, Han army or Chu army, they must light beacon towers."

Xiang Zhuang nodded slightly, and then gave Gongsun Sui a look. Gongsun Sui understood, immediately turned over and dismounted, then pulled out the horizontal knife and put it on the neck of the young man Zhao Jun, shouting sternly: "Boy, do you dare to lie?"

"Ah, no, no, no, no, what the villain said is true." The young man Zhao Jun was so scared that his butt was urinated.

Xiang Zhuang used another glance, and Gongsun immediately kicked the Zhao Junshu's butt and scolded: "Get out!"

The Zhao army soldiers were like a general amnesty and crawled away. Xiang Zhuang turned his head and ordered Gongsun, and said, "Send the order, the entire army will speed up the marching and attack Huguan!" Although the whereabouts were already violent, Xiang Zhuang still did not change his decision. He said the same thing. He had no other choice. Even though he knew that this was a dead end, he could only rush forward with his teeth.

Handan, the palace residence of King Zhao.

King Zhang Er of Zhao fell ill when he returned to China, and his condition deteriorated rapidly and he could not get up in less than two days.

At this time, Zhang Er was summoning Gao Xiang and the Crown Prince Zhang Ao to discuss the matter. Just a moment ago, the beacons ignited in the south and southeast had already been passed to Handan. At the same time, Ye County and Wei County also condemned the flying cavalry to report that four Han troops had entered Zhao in large numbers, less than fifty miles from Handan!

Zhang Er had already received a report from Liu Bangfei, knowing that it was Zhou Bo, Wang Nu, Mei Jing, and Fu Kuan, and the four armies of Xiahou Ying and Li Shang were left. It was probably about to enter Zhao territory. Only the remnants of Xiangzhuang Chu army have not yet heard of it. I don’t know if it has really entered Zhao territory?

Zhang Er was a little worried and asked Guan Gao: "Major, the beacon towers should be built at all the checkpoints, right?"

"Don't worry, Julu, Handan, and Hengshan counties, more than 20 counties, all the relevant ports are covered with beacon towers. As long as a large army enters Zhao, no matter which army it is, the king will get the news as soon as possible!" There is still a high level of confidence. This is not only to guard against the Chu army, but also to guard against the Han army. How could he take it lightly?

As soon as Guan Gao finished speaking, an insider came to report: "King, the North Watchtower is smoking!" ps: Let me explain that during the Chu-Han battle for hegemony, there were two Han Xin, one was King of Qi, Han Xin, which is well-known, and the other was King of Han, which is not very familiar to everyone. In history, in order to avoid confusion, Han Xin, Han Xin, was usually called Han Xin, but Han Xin.
