Fufeng.

Stormy.

This important town has become the focus of competition between the Qin and Han armies.

The Han general Guan Ying had been attacking the city continuously for nine days. For four or five days, Han Xin cut off supplies. In addition, the Han army had different opinions. Guan Ying was a little lax. In the past two days, due to Liu Bang's personal visit to the front line,

The Han army's attack became fierce again.

Veteran general Xin Sheng and captain Feng Xuan led the infantry to stand on the front line of the city wall. The 5,000 Qin soldiers who had stayed in the city were now less than 3,000. The casualties of 2,000 soldiers were replaced by Guan Ying.

The army had twice as many casualties. Facing a newly formed army of new soldiers, Guan Ying's veteran soldiers were almost unable to fight.

It's nearly noon.

Feng Xuan pressed his back tightly against the bluestone of the city wall, opened his mouth, and panted rapidly.

"The army heading north should be arriving soon. Otherwise, the Han army wouldn't be so desperate?" Feng Xuan was surprised and happy. From this morning to noon, the Han army attacked like crazy, which made him feel pressured.

It was heavy, but there seemed to be a glimmer of hope.

Born in the palace of a great general of the Qin State, Feng Xuan's knowledge was much better than that of ordinary generals. During this battle to defend the city, Xin Sheng was coordinating the battle in the city, while Feng Xuan was directing the battle on the front line. The old man and the young man cooperated tacitly.

, so that the Qin army's infantry, which was not very powerful, could persist.

——.

A mountain separates the two.

To the east of Qishan, the war was raging, and the Qin and Han armies were fighting in darkness. To the west of Qishan, the peaceful pastoral scene made people mistakenly think that they had entered a paradise.

Following the bumper harvest of spring wheat, under the auspices of Guan Yue, Hou Xi, Zhang Fu and other internal affairs officials, the new season of winter wheat was sown before the snow fell. Now, as the harsh winter slowly passes, green shoots begin to bloom.

A little nod appeared from the corner of the shell, seeming to be smiling at the passing teams of healthy women transporting food.

Yang Laozhuang.

It is more than a hundred miles away from Fufeng, where the war is raging, and there are mountains in the middle. Coupled with the guard troops, it is rare for the people of Guanzhong who moved here to sit together and enjoy a rare reunion at the end of the year.

In a thatched house at the east end of Zhuangzi.

A few weak lights flickered. This kind of oil, which was refined from pine nut oil, was a rare thing in this era. Only wealthy families could afford it.

The owner of this thatched cottage is obviously not among the rich. Inside the house, a plump woman with a big belly sits on a soft mat with a happy face. Next to her, there is a six-year-old,

The seven-year-old girl has delicate features and looks like a very smart little person.

"Mom, my brother is moving!" The little girl put her hand on the woman's belly and cried out in surprise.

"Don't touch it. Later, I will sacrifice to the ancestors and make a wish for your father. May he be safe and sound." The woman patted the girl's hand and said angrily.

"Which daddy?" The girl was not worried and just asked in confusion.

"Both yes, let Grandpa bless them, keep swords and guns away, sharp arrows away, and all bad things stay away -!" The woman's voice became lower and lower, getting louder and louder.

As she spoke, her thoughts were like a kite with its string broken, falling to an unknown place.

woman.

Just like a vine, if you want to survive in this troubled world, you must wrap around a big tree. When this tree falls, you must look for the next suitable and strong tree. This is what my grandmother has said since childhood.

training experience.

Yang remembered this ancient saying. When the first man disappeared in the war in Guandong that involved more than 200,000 people, she took the girl in front of her all the way to Yongqi and found another one.

The man leaned on him.

This person named Han Si is not tall and somewhat introverted in character. When at home, Yang's behavior is much stronger than Han Si's.

When it comes to matters between husband and wife, Han Si, a carpenter who is severely inexperienced, can't compete with a mature woman like Yang. After just a few nights of "fierce fighting", Han Si is completely immersed in Yang's gentle country.

, defeated in the first battle and defeated in the battle, Han Si's new daughter-in-law, Yang, tightly captured Han Si's heart with a woman's unparalleled courage.

Gone are the days when one person had enough to eat and the whole family was not hungry.

Han Si, who officially became a member of the men, joined the Qin army, and quickly became a general and a military prince from a pawn. As Han Si's military position was promoted, he also brought back grain and fields that could be eaten by women and children.

, even the oil stains in the pine oil lamp were purchased with Han Si’s military salary.

Women are looking forward to when the men at home will come back, and when the baby in their belly will be born. They also imagine that when the men come back from the army, they can buy more cows and sheep. Even if the milk is not enough, the baby will also have goat milk.

You can drink it. The woman's heart feels sweet when she thinks of it.

There will always be a beautiful day in life.

Even if the sky falls, it's no big deal.

Han Si died on the battlefield, and a new life was growing in his mother's womb. In a few years, like his father, he would grow into a big tree where his relatives could rest.

——.

Outside Fufeng City.

Han army tent.

Guan Ying, the general of the Han army, stood across one end of the table in the tent with a bluffing face, sullenly drinking strong wine. His continuous failure in attacking the city made him, who had always been arrogant and arrogant, lose his place among the generals of the Han army.

face.

Pioneer general.

Not that easy to do.

The Qin people in the city were like a bunch of hedgehogs. Every time Guan Ying saw hope, they would show their sharp venomous stings. However, the other Han generals who had never been to the city were laughing at him, thinking that Guan Ying was not good enough.

This is a false name. He couldn't even take down the small Fufeng City, and he dared to claim to be the most powerful general of the Han army after Fan Kuai.

"Marquis Guan, the scouts are reporting urgently. The Qin army's cavalry has appeared thirty miles away -!" A scout reporting the news stumbled in.

"Where is Zhou Jie? Isn't he stationed in the north?" Guan Ying felt angry. The internal fight with Zhou Jie had already caused him to lose a lot of points in front of Liu Bang. Under his strong request, Zhou Jie's troops

After being transferred to the north of Fufeng City, Guan Ying did not expect that Zhou Jie would let Qin's cavalry suddenly break into the encirclement.

The scout bowed his head and retreated. Guan Ying vented his anger and could only throw the wine cup in his hand violently. At this time, Guan Ying, who had a grudge in his heart, did not expect that it was not that Zhou Xie did not resist, but that

Luo Jia's cavalry was too fierce, and the sharp edge of Qin's cavalry was far beyond what Zhou Gui's newly defeated army could withstand.

"Come here, report to the King of Han quickly, saying that our army entered the city first, but just as the bandit Li was returning, the city was gained and lost. Now the enemy is oppressed by a large force. For the sake of the overall situation, he wants to retreat to Wugong. On the line of the Wei River, I don't know if it is possible -

." Guan Ying thought about it again and again, and finally called Cheng Chu, the deputy general of the army, and gave instructions.

"Don't worry, Marquis Guan, the general will know how to report it!" Cheng Chu nodded and said. As Guan Ying's deputy, the two sides have a close relationship. It can be said that both will be prosperous and both will suffer losses. Cheng Chu thought about it for a moment and understood what Guan Ying meant.

.

Guan Ying was very fierce. He was a cloth dealer and had the cunningness of a merchant. His reply was very reminiscent of the Spring and Autumn Period. Listening carefully, it was not that Guan Ying was not brave in battle, but because Li Yuan's reinforcements were so strong.

Because it's too fast.
