Xingyang.

In the turbulent times, various forces gathered here. This important town in Sanchuan has become a new target for Liu Bang's interests. Zhao Bi, who was still immersed in internal strife, reacted very slowly to the military actions of the anti-Qin coalition forces after the Battle of White Horse.

Finally, Yang Xiong was pushed out of Xingyang. This made Zhao Ben very proud for several days. From the third in command to the first in command, from being able to just nod and look at others, to having the power to point the country, Zhao Ben realized what power brings.

of various benefits.

Zhao Bi and Wang Ming have gathered a group of vested interests around them. Their method of obtaining wealth is very simple, which is to frame people, purge rebels, and then make false accusations, and throw those who resist into prison or kill them. Here

In one point, Zhao Ben's methods are no different from those of his clan uncle Zhao Gao.

In front of the huge amount of wealth, Zhao Ben was already blinded. In his opinion, the fortified city of Xingyang was strong enough. Since Wu Guang's hundreds of thousands of people could not break the city, who else would dare to attack Xingyang?

idea.

Out of caution, Zhao Ben had previously ordered the guards on the north bank of Baima to withdraw into the city to consolidate the city, bringing the number of Qin troops in the city to 10,000. Although most of them were new soldiers recruited temporarily after Yang Xiong left, their combat effectiveness

It was limited, but if it was used to defend the city, Zhao Ben thought it was enough.

Facing the imminent threat of Liu Bang's army, Zhao Bi did not care. This made the neutral faction who had always kept a distance from Zhao and Li's internal struggle uneasy.

Once Xingyang falls, Zhao Bi will not be the only one unlucky.

Zongzheng Mansion.

Chen Di has been in a very depressed mood recently. This trip to Sanchuan made him personally feel the shaken foundation of the Qin Dynasty. Xianyang is located in the hinterland of Guanzhong and is blocked by Hangu Pass. Even if there is a fallout in Guandong, as long as Zhao Gaoming

People intercepted the messengers in Hangu, Wuguan and Yunzhong areas to the north. What Xianyang heard was still a good situation of singing and dancing and peace.

It's no longer relevant, let's hang it up. Chen Di has always had an attitude of not participating in the internal strife in Xingyang and not paying attention. Prime Minister Zhao Gao is so powerful that he, a fringe royal family, can't touch it, so Chen Di is like Wang Ming.

In the same way, they could help Zhou to do evil and slander Li Si, Li You and his son, and Chen Di could not do it either.

Silence is also a form of vocal resistance.

Chen Di's attitude was changing, and so were the attitudes of other people who did not collude with Zhao Bi and Wang Ming. When Liu Bang's army appeared outside the city, Ying Yushu, who had been holding back, took action. Zongzheng and Chen Di were her first

an object of lobbying.

"I heard that Chen Zongzheng has been restless recently, so I specially brought some fine incense to soothe his nerves. This incense was left by the late emperor. It has been almost two years, and I am very worried about it."

Ying Yushu was still dressed in plain clothes, with only a small yellow flower inserted diagonally at the root of her hairline, which made her look extraordinarily simple and elegant.

The purpose of carrying out the late emperor was to show his identity. Although Hu Hai killed his brothers and sisters, as long as he did not kill Ying Yushu for a day, then Ying Yushu would still be the eldest princess of Qin and a noble royal family.

"The eldest princess killed the younger minister. Logically speaking, the younger minister should have come to visit the eldest princess first." Chen Dicheng was frightened. He said it nicely, but the fact is that he deliberately distanced himself from the Li family a few days ago.

Afraid of setting off a fire, now Ying Yushu came to his house to kiss him. If Zhao Bi and Wang Ming knew about this, it would be really hard to explain.

"Oh, I'm waiting for Zong Zheng in the palace. I hope it won't be too long. I can afford to wait, but the rebels outside can't." Ying Yushu said, without waiting for Chen Di to reply.

, immediately stood up and left Chen's mansion.

She came today to give Chen Di an opportunity. Whether he can seize it or not depends on Chen Di's attitude. If Chen Di pays a return visit, then it is possible to talk about alliance. If Chen Di is still intimidated by Zhao Gao's power,

If he doesn't make a choice, then Ying Yushu doesn't need to spend any more time on Chen Di.

In Sanchuan County, in Xingyang, through the management of Li Si and Li Yu by two generations of father and son, the foundation of the Li family has long been buried deep in the ground. Zhao Bi can cut off the tree trunks, but cannot uproot the Li family. Junhou, Qu Changyi

Zhao Bi, a high-ranking officer, can be bribed, and county magistrates and county lieutenants can win over. However, Zhao Bi will probably not be interested in paying attention to low-level characters such as commanders, corps commanders, petty officials, and jailers. However, the potential of the Li family

Just hidden in it.

Once this potential bursts out, it will be enough to turn the Li family around. Of course, this requires an excellent leader.

Li Si has been the prime minister of Qin for many years, and it is impossible that he does not have his own power. On the issue of choosing the prince, Li Si did make a mistake. The young king Hu Hai was so stupid that he did not expect. Li Si actually foresaw that something was not going to happen and appointed Li You.

The purpose of becoming the governor of Sanchuan County was to maintain a way out.

With military power in hand, there is no need to worry about Zhao Gao making any changes.

Li Si's idea was very good, but God's calculations were not as good as those of others. He never thought that the anti-Qin wave launched by Chen Sheng and Wu Guang would bring his plan to naught.

In Xianyang, Zhongshu ordered Zhao Gao to immediately launch a palace coup after taking control of the military power in Xianyang. Ministers with different opinions, such as Li Si and Feng Quji, were either sentenced to death or imprisoned. At this time, Li You was killed because of Chen Sheng and Wu Guang.

The army was surrounded in Xingyang and could not return for reinforcements. They could only watch Zhao Gao gain power.

When Chen Sheng and Wu Guang were defeated, the situation in the DPRK was irreversible. Zhao Gao's confidant, Shaofu Zhang Han, became the general of the Qin State. Zhao Gao's strength suddenly increased, far surpassing Li Si. Li You had few soldiers, but only

Being able to obey Zhang Han's orders was the reason why he finally defeated Yongqiu.

After Li Youshen died, the actual controller of the Li family was replaced by Ying Yushu. This was the only choice under desperate circumstances. In the period of history when Li Yuan did not travel through time, Ying Yushu was like a river in the river.

The canopy was made of floating withered grass, rising and falling with the wind, leaving no trace behind.

——.

The river is surging, and the early winter snowflakes have begun to fall. In a few days, when another wave of cold current from the northern grasslands moves south, the river that has been flowing for three seasons will also freeze.

A Qin army grain transport fleet from Luoyang is going down the river. It is a team composed of three building ships, eleven flat-bottomed warehouse ships, and more than 360 sailors. Their destination is Changyi

, the Qin State's large granary in Guandong. However, before arriving at Changyi, the fleet had to stop at Xingyang for supplies.

In the land war, the anti-Qin coalition forces achieved successive victories, which posed a great threat to the Qin army's water transportation. If it were not for Zhang Han of Zhao and Wang Li, the two armies were in urgent need of food, fodder and baggage. The Qin navy would not have taken the risk this time.

Travel.

The towering bow of the ship.

A tall and tall young man with a dark complexion, General Qin, stood, letting pieces of snowflakes fall onto his black armor. After a while, his entire body was covered with white snow.

"Well, Lieutenant Li Dai, the wine has warmed up!" The cabin door of the building opened, and Gu Yun, dressed in men's clothing, stepped out with a heroic appearance.

Idiot Li——, what an idiot.

On this cold day, I stood on the bow of the boat, dumbfounded and didn't know what to think.

Gu Yun didn't believe that Li Yuan couldn't tell her gender, but this idiot didn't ask and treated her just like other soldiers. This made Gu Yun feel like a cat scratched his heart, and he was itchy but didn't dare to scratch it.
