Chapter 58 Chapter 58
Poor Lu Matong was trembling behind the two of them, unaware that he had called an unreasonable and arrogant tiger to his attention.
Lu Bu turned his head several times without a trace, and only after he remembered Lu Matong's disgusting face clearly, he snorted coldly and paid attention to the front.
Because of his unhappiness, he subconsciously forgot the rule of being half a horse behind the king, and followed his own temper.
As soon as he was caught in the horse's belly, Wu Wei, who thought pacing was boring and ruthless, immediately slapped his tail knowingly, and happily passed the jerk jade lion in front of him.
Xiang Yu stared blankly at the back of Ai Jiang who walked over him unceremoniously, and without thinking he urged the Jade Lion to follow him, so as not to be thrown away.
The jade lion is afraid of the overlord's aura, and always walks on thin ice.
No matter how tired he was, he didn't dare to delay for a moment, so he hurried to catch up.
Wu Wei extremely despised this jade lion, and when he saw that it dared to keep up, he suddenly became angry.
Taking advantage of the fact that the rider on his back is only loosely holding the reins, and he is in a free-handed posture, how could he let the jade lion catch up, and he immediately ran with all four hooves!
However, there was a big killing god on his back, and the jade lion was very frightened.
One black and one white two riders galloped, just like two lightning flashes across the vast plain, always biting one after the other.
After all this galloping speed, in the end, both Wuxian and Jade Lion were out of breath from exhaustion, but they only threw the horse behind them and threw them far away.
The two horses galloped with all their might, the dazzling effort had passed nearly a hundred miles, and Gu Du was extremely tired.
Lu Bu seemed to have come to his senses just now, and he couldn't help but frown.
He tightened the reins a little, and Wu Wei walked down the stairs numbly and turned to pacing slowly.
Xiang Yu calmly ordered the Jade Lion to speed up a few steps, marching hand in hand with him, and asked nonchalantly, "Why did Feng Xian just stare at Lu Matong?"
Lu Bu turned his head lazily, gave him an indifferent look, and said nonsense: "Your Majesty is wrong, Bu never looked at anyone."
Xiang Yu pursed his lips and said, "Three eyes."
Lu Bu looked at him inexplicably.
Xiang Yu's face was cold.
The pair of heavy pupils didn't look at him, they just stared at the unmanned path ahead, and after a while, Fang said slowly, "Feng Xiangong turned back and looked at Lu Matong three times."
Why doesn't he know that this fool has the ability to see all directions and listen to all directions?
Lu Bu secretly slandered, and he just said "Oh" as if nothing had happened, and said in a perfunctory way: "It's rare for Bu to meet a master, so I just took a few more glances."
Xiang Yu remained silent.
When Lu Bu thought of Lu Matong's abominable appearance, he was filled with disgust.
In addition, the confrontation has been included in the list of future liquidation, how can this foolish king mention that person again to make him upset.
but……
Lu Bu rolled his eyes and suddenly realized that there was no one around, and the Dumb King seemed to be in a good mood, but wasn't it a good time to mention that cheap old man's invitation!
His anger has always come and gone faster.
With a certain idea, he squinted his tiger eyes, the corners of his lips curved slightly, and his cold eyebrows just turned into a sly smile: "Your Majesty, there is something important you need to report!"
His face became so fast that it really made Xiang Yu's eyes dizzy.
Xiang Yu was slightly startled, and said lightly, "Feng Xian, but it's okay to say it."
Lü Bu only thought about the words for a while, and then he began to talk incessantly: "The Chinese New Year is over and spring ploughing is approaching, no matter whether you are a commoner or a soldier, you must not miss the timing of ploughing. Even if it can't be compared with the Guanzhong area, it must not be underestimated, let alone the two areas of Yan and Zhao? If the princes are given a chance to breathe, the king will only rely on the money, food and soldiers in the west and east Chu areas. In a stalemate of equal power, it is difficult to break the enemy, but instead it is in danger."
Xiang Yu listened carefully, considered for a moment, and asked, "Following the intention of the first, but once the New Year is over, are you going to send troops to retake the three places?"
"Chen Pingping is still in Zhaodi," Lu Bu's mouth twitched slightly, and he said unceremoniously, "If this is the case, Your Majesty, wouldn't he kill the messenger sent by his family! Of course, it will take a while!"
Xiang Yu frowned.
Seeing that this fool was not enlightened, Lü Bu thought that he had not counted on him, and continued: "According to Bu's opinion, the situation in the northern land is uncertain, and the land of Eastern Chu may not be able to live without the great king, let alone. It is easy to move the division northward, so as not to let the rat people enter while they are empty, and then they will be tired of running for their lives. Although the Hengshan Mountain is down, the battle in Jiujiang is still unknown..."
The more Xiang Yu listened to his analysis, the more his brows tightened.
Seeing that Xiang Hanzi was completely on the hook, Lu Bu was secretly delighted, and his face was serious, and solemnly proposed: "The king clearly has a teacher of tigers and wolves ready to go elsewhere, why not use it?"
"Where?" Xiang Yu's eyes "Lu" and "Confused" asked, "Where?"
Lu Bu frowned and danced: "Although my brother is low-key and reserved, he is a natural general, and he is very talented in the art of war. Since he has defeated Peng Yue, stationed in Xianyang, and managed the remaining soldiers, is it difficult to see what he can do? !"
Rao was Xiang Yu, who had no doubts about the love in front of him, and he couldn't believe it when he heard the words.
He remained silent, but Lu Bu had already observed his words and looked at his "color", and he could not help but hurriedly said: "No matter whether the debater succeeds or fails, he will not be in a hurry for a while. Since the battle situation in the Jiujiang area is stalemate, Dongchu The army must not be moved lightly, and there are still more than 200,000 elite soldiers in Guanzhong, why not take advantage of it and capture the Wei land first, so that the road for the supply of grain can be unimpeded?"
Xiang Yu said solemnly: "The country must not lose, and Zhang Han must not move."
Lu Bu scolded the fool for being too ignorant. So far, he has not regarded Han Xin's hen that lays golden eggs as a general who can lead an army alone.
Moreover, sending troops from Xianyang to attack Wei was really beneficial and harmless.
Regardless of whether Wei can be completely defeated, as long as it poses a certain threat, it can cause panic among the feudal lords, thereby greatly reducing the pressure on the main battlefield outside the customs.
If Chen Ping hadn't persuaded the king of Zhao to rest at that time, and the fall of Wei land, he would have increased his lobbying power.
Lu Bu thought about it, and suddenly changed his words: "Forget it, Bu and Brother Han have a very close relationship. It is inevitable for the king to suspect that Bu uses cronyism and prefers to listen to others..."
When did he say this?
Xiang Yu pursed his lips and wanted to speak, but he heard the next sentence from the general: "Your Majesty is the king of a country and the commander-in-chief of an army. It is reasonable to act cautiously. There is only one suggestion from Bu, I don't know. Your Majesty would like to hear it."
Xiang Yu was blocked by Shengsheng after he said something, and after a while, Fang said dully, "Tell me."
Lu Bu looked at this elm head with mixed emotions, and there seemed to be a radiance in his eyes.
In Xiang Yu's eyes, this love raised the corners of his lips, and his eyebrows were full of self-confidence and pride: "The guards in Guanzhong are nearly 200,000. In order to prevent something very wrong, the king can make Han Xin stand still."
One does not move?
Xiang Yu frowned in confusion.
Seeing his love, he said in high spirits: "I'm not talented, but I would like to guarantee Brother Han with my wealth and life. The king can order him to raise his own troops, food, and capture Han and Wei prisoners... Only three As for the others, not to mention the army in the city, and the army in Guan is not used by one.”
Having said this, facing the stunned Xiang Hanzi, Lü Bu could only feel his brows raised, and said happily: "If you rely on such a mixed army, Brother Han can also make achievements in Wei, and the king will be willing to serve him from now on? "
Xiang Yu was silent for a long time.
Anyone who hears this will only feel that it is a fool's dream.
——What is the combat strength of this part composed of young soldiers and enemy prisoners who have been recruited hastily?
The Central Army, which was easily collapsed like a "tide" under Zhang Han's remarkable command back then, is the best example.
Such a mixed crowd, not to mention a serious enemy of the army, even if you just want to bring it to the battlefield smoothly, it is definitely not something that can be done with only three or four months of training.
But the love will be stubborn and stubborn, and Han Xin, who is just a commander of the army and is well-known for his humiliation, is so acclaimed, repeatedly recommended, and even took the initiative to propose such harsh conditions, it is obvious that he has made up his mind.
Xiang Yu thought about it for a long time, and finally sighed.
That's it.
He was restless in his heart, but he couldn't help thinking that since love would insist on doing this, then... just let it go.
Although he didn't value Han Xin, he didn't think he had the magical ability to train and transport troops as his love general said, and he treated him as an ordinary general.
It's not like they will deliberately make things difficult and force the other side to fail.
"No need."
Xiang Yu said lightly: "Fengxian's Guan Zhongjun will be directly led by him, and more people... as much as he is willing to raise, as much as he can raise, he will raise as much as he can."
Six days later.
When Han Xin, who was still restless and was deeply ashamed of his impulsive and rude request that day, really got an order from Wang Zhao who allowed him to lead an army to conquer Wei...
I only felt that was in the cloud and mist, and feet were like a cloud, full of disbelief.
- Did it really happen?
That request was made at that time because of the urge in chest that didn't want to miss the opportunity.
But he said that since his brother left, he combined the 20,000 Wei soldiers and nearly 10,000 Han soldiers, and after a month of intensive training with the Guanzhong army, his military appearance changed a lot.
Although compared with Guan Zhongjun, who was more familiar with him and had been an elite division of the former Qin Dynasty, these newly recruited soldiers seemed to be of mixed quality, but it was enough to fight Hanzhong.
He ignored Zhang Han's shocked dissuasion, seized the opportunity of Liu Bang's defeat and fled back to Hanzhong, and just after a month of training, he led this new army to the west.
On the other hand, Liu Bang had only escaped from birth, and he had lingering fears, and it took several days to calm down.
Although he knew that 80% of the defenders stationed in Xianyang were coming, he was really reluctant to give up the fat in his mouth, so he revived his morale with the assistance of Xiao He, and recruited a group of young soldiers from Bashu, thinking of training as soon as possible, acting as a guard military.
How did he expect Han Xin to come so quickly?
The 20,000 recruits had just arrived in Hanzhong, and he didn't have time to train in the future, so Han Xin's aggressive and even terrifying trilogy arrived.
Liu Bang reluctantly resisted for a few days, but his morale was low and the soldiers were afraid of the battle. In the end, he could only find an opportunity and quietly abandoned the city and fled.
Although Han Xin failed to catch others again, but this time he came for military training, so it wasn't too much of a pity.
He successfully recaptured Hanzhong and personally drove Liu Bang all the way back to Bashu before returning to Xianyang to find Zhang Han.
Zhang Han was deeply disturbed by the fact that he could not stop him that day. How could he have expected him to use his troops like a god to come this far? He really relied on the mixed army that was no different from the rabble, and recaptured Hanzhong very quickly!
Not only that, after this battle, Han Xinke increased the number of 20,000 young men who had been recruited from Bashu by Nayu Xiao He to the soldiers who had stepped up their training.
With more and more soldiers under his hands, Han Xin decided to go outside the gate.
At present, although the rations are still very abundant, they not only need to be eaten by the soldiers in Guan, but also sent to the Eastern Chu battlefield.
Both sides are consumed at the same time, coupled with the long food route and many countries, it is inevitable that the enemy will seize it.
If you want to open up the food route and conquer the Wei land, it has become a top priority.
While Han Xin was training troops in an orderly manner, while comforting the people, he waited quietly.
Winter is coming to spring, and spring ploughing is just around the corner, which is the best time to send troops in his mind.
But even when he was cheeky and made that request to his virtuous brother, he never dared to imagine that a king who had never looked down on him would appoint him as a general!
Han Xin opened his eyes wide and stared at the brief edict.
——From this day on, he will no longer be able to temporarily lead the entire army even as a lieutenant by relying on the extra letter of his virtuous brother who is the chief general.
But under the unreserved, sincere and enthusiastic recommendation of the virtuous brother, he won the honor of being promoted exceptionally, and solidly became the main general of the Guanzhong Army.
Yes - the chief general who has the complete authority to recruit troops, raise food, and send troops to fight!
Han Xin took a deep breath, closed his eyes tightly, and the hand holding the edict trembled uncontrollably.
But after a while, his eyes were hot, and the corners of his eyes were moist.
At the same time, an unprecedented scalding heat flowed through his limbs, filling him with unprecedented forward mobility.
——He was used to being out of place, and he was unknown.
——I was also used to chewing hardships alone and enduring contempt and indifference.
——I am more accustomed to wandering without support in my heart, and my ambitions are high in the air, as bright as the bright moon, but also out of reach.
The only one who has never been used to, is such a sincere and sincere brother who always believes in him and respects him.
Han Xin was frozen in place like a bottle of clay sculpture, motionless for a long time.
Only he knows clearly in his heart, that invisible and invisible shackle that always shackles him, traps him, and scolds him...
It has been melted by the sincerity and trust of the virtuous brother contained in this paper edict, and has no trace.
Han Xin gently wiped the water from the corner of his eyes and smiled.
The eyes are clear, the heart is fixed, the road is clear.
He lowered his eyes and put down the edict, and carefully put the seal of the general that was in the hands of his virtuous brother not long ago into his chest and put it away properly.
This kind of affection that picks him up in the slightest, even if he shatters his bones, he also needs to return.
In stark contrast to Han Xin's cautious actions, it was the boiling blood on his body, the shaking knuckles, and the sound of... the roar of fiercely intersecting swords.
——That is the Tibetan Feng Divine Soldier, throbbing as soon as it is unsheathed.
