There is a situation map made of sheepskin spread on the ground. This is what Chen Ping drew after integrating information from many parties to the detailed locations of the various forces in Daqin. "Now the Zhang Chu regime of Chen Sheng and Wu Guang has become our biggest threat to seize Taiyuan."

If the enemy wants to truly capture Taiyuan, we have to fight them." Fusu looked at the situation on the map and said. Because it has been marked on the map, the original Shangdang County fell to Chen Sheng and Wu Guang during this period.

In their hands, it can be said that now they are at the peak of their momentum, and they may very well be able to take advantage of the situation to take down Taiyuan.

Chen Ping added on the side: "On the surface, it seems that our biggest enemy is Zhang Chu, but don't forget that there is also a Zhao country here. After all, the original owner here was Zhao." While talking, Chen Ping used

The hand knocked on Handan County, where Zhao State is now located.

"Zhao Guo thought that he didn't have enough troops, so he came up with a conspiracy to seize my county. Now that their plot has completely failed, I'm afraid there is no threat to us anymore." Zhang Wu said with a grin.

"But we have to guard against it. After all, we have no idea how many people they have now." Chen Ping frowned.

"Let's take a look at the east side again," Fusu suddenly said, "Liu Bang and the Chu army in the east are very close to each other, so they have a good chance of getting together."

Everyone looked at Fusu strangely, wondering why he would go see these two insurrectionists who were still far away from them. These two people should be given to Hu Hai and the others to give them a headache. However, due to the influence of historical events, the

Of course, Fusu would pay special attention to these two great figures who would make history in the future, but he couldn't say anything. But since he said it, Chen Ping, as a military advisor, had to answer. He carefully looked at the territory where the two were located.

Said: "The current situation seems to be that the geographical location of the Chu people is more ideal, and they are also carrying the banner of reviving the Chu Kingdom. As long as they capture Jiujiang County, there will be some friction with Sishui County where Liu Bang is located.

.If Liu Bang, the Duke of Pei, can be subordinated to the King of Chu, their power will be greatly enhanced. By then, the southeast side will be completely in the hands of the Chu people, and the court will probably have a headache."

Fusu listened carefully to Chen Ping's analysis and nodded frequently: "What Mr. Chen said is true. Although they will not have any impact on the situation in the Central Plains at the moment, in the long run, their power cannot be underestimated.

of."

"Since the prince and sir have talked about the Chu State, let me talk about the Qi State." Meng Tian, ​​who has never expressed his opinion, also interjected; "With the help of the Qi people in the old days, this country farthest from our Qin Dynasty wants to

The success rate of regaining their homeland should be the highest, and as long as they take a few steps, they will join forces with Chu and Liu Bang's troops. Once the three groups of troops come together, it will be really difficult."

"Perhaps it is possible for Liu Bang and the Chu people to form an army, but in my opinion, the Qi people will not truly form an alliance with the Chu people. After all, they are completely two countries, and there will always be some differences." Chen Ping relaxed.

typical.

"Okay, now that the situation of the rebels has been analyzed, let's take a look at our real enemies - Hu Hai and Zhao Gao." Fusu clicked on the location of Xianyang City on the map, and in his heart

Still brooding over Li Si's death.

Chen Ping smiled and said: "They don't have much influence on my attack on Taiyuan County. The two counties of Hedong and Shangdang outside Hangu Pass have now fallen into the hands of Chen Sheng and Wu Guang. If they want to support Taiyuan, they must take a long way or capture it first.

Two counties, but if they have become exhausted by the time they really arrive in Taiyuan, then they can only come to die. Of course, they can also mobilize troops from other counties to assist, but one is now under the control of the imperial court

There are not many soldiers and horses in the counties now, and they don't dare to withdraw all the guards, otherwise their territory is likely to be occupied. So the prince only needs to be careful about Chen Sheng and Wu Guang in this battle.

.”

Fusu stood up and said: "After listening to Mr. Chen's words, I have more confidence in taking Taiyuan. Then we will make more preparations and send troops to attack Taiyuan County in two days."

Everyone accepted the order one after another, and a pre-war meeting ended like this.

Just when Fusu was planning how to capture Taiyuan, war broke out in the Central Plains.

Xiang Yu was riding on his Wuzui horse, his eyes fixed on the city in front of him. They had spent half a month besieging it, and then they continued to attack it in turn, but until now, there was still no one.

A single soldier can attack the city wall. Just now, Xiang Yu used his skills to launch an attack on Jiujiang City. When he was about to reach the top of the city, he was forced down by the people above with crossbows. Then his uncle

When he found out what he had done, he immediately summoned him back with gold, and at the same time gave himself a severe scolding. So now he can only ride on his horse and direct the soldiers to attack the city wall again and again.

This is the last and most important city in Jiujiang County - Jiujiang City. Its city wall is four feet high and several feet thick, and its four city gates are also made of fine wood wrapped in copper.

, so no matter how hard the Chu people attacked, they could not break the city. Now Xiang Yu was complaining about the ancestors of Chu. Why did he build a city that was so easy to defend and attack from the south?

Xiang Liang was discussing how to capture Jiujiang City with his friend Fan Zeng in the tent at this time, but no matter how hard they tried, they were unable to do anything about the situation where the Qin soldiers in the city only defended but did not attack and were well prepared with defensive equipment. "This way.

If the fight continues, our army's casualties will be too great. Even if we capture Jiujiang City, the gains will outweigh the losses." Fan Zeng walked back and forth in the camp and suddenly said.

Xiang Liang smiled bitterly and said: "I don't know, but now it is difficult to ride a tiger. If we don't capture it, not only will our Chu army be unable to get out of this corner, but the morale of the Chu army will also be greatly reduced."

"Actually, why not use something soft?" Fan Zeng stopped and said, "How about we surround it for another half month and then send people in to persuade them to surrender. This can also reduce unnecessary casualties."

"It's not like we didn't persuade them at the beginning, but the problem is that the city guard Yu Fulong is too straightforward. He said that he would fight our army to the end even if he died." Xiang Liang smiled bitterly.

"Actually, as long as we besiege and do not attack, there will be no food supply in the city, and then they will have no choice but to accept the persuasion to surrender."

"This... is a feasible method. Okay, let's try it first. Come here~" Xiang Liang called. Immediately, soldiers came in, "Order Yu'er to stop attacking, and we will besiege the city again."

"

Xiang Yu had no choice but to retreat his troops after hearing his uncle's order, but he kept mumbling: "It must be Fan Zeng who gave his uncle the idea. How long will it take to capture Jiujiang? What a scholar's opinion."

Obviously, looking at the current situation, Liu Bang is the best. He took advantage of the fact that others were attracted by Chu State, a power that was much bigger than himself, and started his slow but powerful expansion. There was Xiao He's strategy in this, and of course there was

Due to luck, now he has not only completely occupied Sishui County, but also captured Donghai County in the northeast, which has greatly improved his strength. Of course, although Donghai County is a county system, the people in it

But there were only a few, so Liu Bang took it down so easily, but although the place was small, its effect was great. As its name suggests, Donghai County is backed by the sea, so Liu Bang had no worries at all. At the same time,

When salt was produced at the seaside, the salt content of the military's food increased. You must know that salt at that time was very precious. In the Central Plains and even further inland areas, it would take a long time for many people to eat salty food.

But Liu Bang's appetite did not only stop at these two eastern counties, he also set his sights on the Central Plains, where heroes competed for hegemony and won victory in one fell swoop.

"Xiao He, we now have 50,000 troops. I think we should be able to capture Dang County and Chen County in the west." Although Liu Bang is now the lord of the land, he has no such consciousness at all. He is still

He looked like he always did, holding a wine bottle in his hand, and he was like a brother to his subordinates.

Xiao He said with a smile: "Don't be impatient, Mr. Pei. I have sent people to spread some rumors in those two counties to make them panic. When our army arrives, we will definitely be able to capture it in one fell swoop."

"Why bother? We can just send troops there, why bother creating all this momentum?" It was rare for Liu Bang to have such a big power in his hands, so he wanted to show off his methods.

"Although the two counties of Dang and Chen don't have too many soldiers and horses, the combined strength of both sides is huge. Moreover, our armies cannot be separated to attack two places at the same time. If we only attack one place, the people and horses on the other side will come to attack.

Our Surabaya County, so we must create a momentum so that the enemy cannot guess our thoughts, so that we can defeat more with less."

"Xiao He, you still have the brains. If I, Old Fan, would have led the troops to attack those two counties, why should I care about him?" Fan Kuai on the side laughed.

"So Lao Xiao is the military advisor and you are the general." Liu Bang also laughed.

Judging from the confident expressions of Xiao He and others, Liu Bang will definitely take down Dangchen County this time. It is indeed smooth sailing.

"Your Majesty, I will definitely capture Taiyuan County when we go here. Then I, Zhang Chu, can invade Xianyang and destroy Qin." Wu Guang was already ready to go, with 40,000 troops ready.

"Good brothers, when we take over the world of Qin, you and I will divide the world equally." Chen Sheng patted Wu Guang on the shoulder and said.

Wu Guang agreed, got on his horse, and shouted angrily: "Now that Taiyuan County has been severely weakened due to civil strife, our army will be able to capture it easily. By then, everyone will be a hero in the founding of the country.

All of them can be crowned kings and marquises."

As soon as he finished speaking, the soldiers shouted: "Princes, generals and prime ministers would rather have their own kind!"
