In the second half of the night, the water surface of the river (Yellow River) is calm.

Amid the sound of the oars, more than 150 large and small ships were slowly heading towards the north shore. On the first step, Xiang Zhuang stood solemnly with a knife, and behind him were Wei Liao, Wu She and Huan Chu generals.

It took only two days for the second crossing of the river, and the Chu army was about to cross the river for the third time.

Although this is not much different from the great man's four crossings of Chishui.

General Huan Chu was confused by the two days of back and forth, and asked immediately: "General, General, I am really confused. We finally crossed the river two days ago, why did we cross the river and return to Zhao today? If I had known this, wouldn't it be better to hide directly in the old forest in Hexi? We could have traveled more than 300 miles less."

Xiang Zhuang and Wei Liao looked at each other and ignored Huan Chu. It would be useless to say to this rash man.

Wu She patiently explained: "General Huan Chu, if our army did not run back and forth like this, how could we transfer several Han troops from Zhao to the east bank of the river?"

"Is this a bird useful?" Huan Chu was not so polite to Wu She. He immediately retorted in a muffled voice, "Today, the Han army was transferred to the east bank of the river. Tomorrow they couldn't find us, wouldn't they chased the west bank again? At that time, we would have to be chased by others like rabbits?"

Wu She was so angry that she thought to herself that she was a rash man, Huan Chu, could not tell her.

"Huan Chu, don't be rude to Mr. Wu She." Xiang Zhuang scolded Huan Chu and said to Wu She, "Sir, now you should know why you have to wait until Zhou Bo and Mei Jiao arrived that day before crossing the river?"

Wu She nodded and sighed: "The General is far-sighted and I am here to accept it."

Huan Chu scratched his head, and couldn't help but ask Wu She: "Mr. Wu, why did you have to wait until Zhou Bo and Mei Jiao arrived that day before crossing the river?"

Wu Shedao: "Because when Zhou Bo and Mei Jiao arrived, they could see that there were only more than a hundred ships for crossing the river in total. So when the Han army scouts found more than a hundred ships hidden outside the forest on the east bank of the river, they would not continue to search deep into the forest. In this way, the ships hidden deep in the forest will be saved."

"Oh, so that's how it is." Huan Chuzu suddenly realized, but in fact he didn't understand anything at all.

Gao Chu, the captain of the Nufeng, said: "Sir, the general must wait until Zhou Bo and Mei Jiao arrive before crossing the river. The intention should be more than that, right?"

"Of course." Wu She nodded happily, "What I just said is only one, and there is another."

Speaking of this, Wu She deliberately paused. When Huan Chu, Ji Bu, Xiao Kai, and Jing Qian's eyes were focused on his face, then he continued: "The second intention of the General's move is that even if the Han army discovered that General Ziqi was not the main force of our army, we would never have thought that we had actually entered Zhao again!"

Xiang Zhuang and Wei Liao looked at each other again and laughed at each other. Wu She's words hit the nail on the head.

Because after the Han army crossed the river eastward, all the ships had been burned down, including those collected by the Han army themselves and those hidden by the Chu army on the outside of the forest. The total number of fishing boats of all sizes and large have been burned. Now there are probably only a handful of ferries that can be found on both sides of the river, within hundreds of miles upstream and downstream.

The Han army's move was obviously to prevent the Chu army from rushing into Zhao again!

Therefore, even if Yu Ziqi's five hundred suspicious soldiers were discovered by the Han army, no one could guess that the Chu army actually crossed the river for the third time and entered Zhao for the second time! Zhang Liang was not good either. Although Zhang Liang was wise and close to the monster, his vision and insight were still based on intelligence and facts.

At that time, the Han army and Qi army would probably search for traces of the Chu army in the mountains and valleys of Xue County, Dong County, and Jishui County, and deep mountains and forests. The Chu army had already attacked Huguan and went to Guanzhong!

Of course, this is not Xiang Zhuang's credit, and Wei Liao offered it.

This time, the Chu army did not have to worry about the Han army's encirclement and blockade, but the beacon towers spread all over Zhao were still a huge problem. From Jipu to Ye County to Huguan, it must pass through the hinterland of Zhao. It is absolutely impossible to drive it into an institutional place. The only way is probably to pretend to be hungry people.

To be honest, there are quite a lot of hungry people who fled from Wei to Zhao.

More than 4,000 Chu troops gathered together to pretend to be hungry people, and it was not so conspicuous if they were divided into more than a dozen groups.

Of course, in order to look more like hungry people, it is necessary to gather some of the elderly, young, women and children before entering Zhao.

As for the remaining more than 300 northern mink horses and more than 400 mules and horses carrying military rations, they can also use the place bought by Hu Shangqi to pass through Zhao. At worst, some of the horses were intercepted by the Zhao army on the way. As long as most of the horses could pass through Zhao, Xiangzhuang didn't care about this small loss.

If this still doesn't work, then there is no other way, so you can force yourself to attack Huguan!

But in this way, the Huguan Guards will definitely know the news, and it is impossible to attack again.

Fortunately, Zhou Bo, Mei Jiao and other Han troops who were originally pursuing the Chu army in Zhao, have now been transferred to the east bank of the river by the Chu army. Liu Bang wanted to transfer the army into Zhao to intercept the Chu army, so it was absolutely too late, because the ferry had almost been burned out. It would take at least ten days and half a month to build a floating bridge!

#############

Pang Yu had a dark face and was carrying a stone weighing at least 500 kilograms (han kilograms).

More than half a month ago, Xingyang was captured by the Lu Ze and Peng Yue coalition forces, and Chen Xi's general Manqiuchen was killed in battle. Jin Bo, an old clan of the Great Wei Dynasty, also died in the chaos. Pang Yu and Jin Xiang broke out of the encirclement with more than 200 remaining troops. About ten days ago, Pang Yu accidentally intercepted a cavalry of the Han army. When he learned that Xiang Zhuang was in Zhao, he and Jin Xiang brought the remaining troops to cross the river to join.

Unexpectedly, when Pang Yu and Jin Xiang rushed to Anyang County with more than 200 remaining soldiers pretending to be hungry people, the Chu army had already crossed the river and returned to Qi again. Pang Yu was about to continue to chase Xiangzhuang with the remaining soldiers, but at this moment, Pang Yu, Jin Xiang and more than 200 remaining soldiers were surrounded by the Zhao army.

At first, Pang Yu was a little nervous, thinking that Zhao Jun had seen through their identities, but soon, he discovered that Zhao Jun had not found anything, because there were more than 5,000 hungry people arrested at the same time as them. The hungry people were divided into several groups, one group transported rocks to the top of the city, one group dug trenches, and another group sent to quarry.

Because of his growth, Kong Wu was strong and was responsible for carrying huge rocks to the city.

Up to now, Pang Yu has been serving five days of labor and has moved at least 50,000 kilograms of huge rocks to the top of the city. Even though Pang Yu is strong, he can't bear it. Just now, he was secretly calculating that if he and Jin Xiang led more than 200 remaining soldiers to launch a raid at night and incite the hungry people to take advantage of the situation to incite the trouble, it is still very likely to seize Anyang County.

But this matter is not urgent, so I have to reconcile with Jin Xiang first when I look back.

Although Jin Xiang was just a little kid under the age of sixteen, most of the more than 200 remaining soldiers were disciples of the Jin family. If Jin Xiang had not nodded and agreed, Pang Yu would not have been able to mobilize the more than 100 remaining soldiers.

Pang Yu was thinking about how to persuade Jin Xiang tonight, but he slipped and fell on the horse road.

The huge rock weighing more than 500 kilograms that was originally carried on Pang Yu's shoulder suddenly fell to the ground, and then rolled down the tilted horse road. An old man was walking up with a basket of gravel on his back. He was about to be pressed by the huge rock. A big hand like a palm fan suddenly poked out and suppressed the rolling huge rock.

When Pang Yu looked at Dingqing again, he found that the one who saved the old man's life was also a strong man with a big figure.

The strong man was more than eight feet tall and was strong. He was also strong. He was pressed on his back, weighing four or five hundred kilograms. It turned out that he was also a labor force captured by the Zhao army.

While Pang Yu was looking at him, he suddenly got a whip on his back.

Then a gong-like curse sounded from behind: "Don't be lazy, work quickly!"

Pang Yu almost had an attack on the spot. It took a lot of effort to finally restrain his burning anger. Then he grabbed Ma Dao and carried the huge rock again. While lowering his voice, he said to the strong man: "Brother, thank you." I wonder if it was an illusion, Pang Yu always felt that this strong man didn't look like an ordinary person.

"It's just a matter of raising hands." The strong man responded lightly and left.

This strong man is indeed not an ordinary person, he is not someone else, he is Jing Qian, a powerful general of the Chu army!

Xiang Zhuang decided that Qiao Zhuang's hungry people would get away with it, so he divided more than 4,000 people into ten groups, Xiang Zhuang, Wei Liao, Wu She, and Gongsun led more than 40 cavalry scouts of the cavalry Qiao Zhuang's Hu people and bought "going to Han to sell horses". The rest of the troops were divided into nine groups, with more than 400 people in each group. Qiao Zhuang's hungry people went to gather outside the Huguan Canyon.

The Chu army was originally planning to hijack the elderly, young, women and children because they were all strong men and they were not as hungry as hungry people.

As a result, there was no need, because along the way, there were too many hungry people encountered on the road. The Chu army took out some dry food casually, and tens of thousands of hungry people followed them. Each Chu army had more than 400 men, surrounded by tens of thousands of hungry people, and immediately became less eye-catching, and almost no one would be suspicious.

Of course, heavy armor, longbows, large shields, javelins and other weapons are absolutely not allowed to be carried.

In fact, in order to hide himself as much as possible, every Chu army soldier only carried a long sword and a ring sword, and his armored battle robe was replaced with torn clothes. All the other unnecessary equipment was buried in the dense forest near Jipu. Xiangzhuang could be said to have made a desperate bet. If he missed the attack on Huguan, the consequences would be disastrous.
