Chapter 565 Father and Son (1)
Xiahou Zao said anxiously: "Champion Marquis, you must be careful of others. According to the last general's opinion, it is better to prepare elite troops and wait for the Chu army to enter the pass and attack them. This will not only regain the king, but also take the opportunity to kill the prince of Chu. As long as you regain the king and then join forces with the General of Cavalry, the Old General Li may not have a chance to turn the tables."
Zhou Guanfu pondered for a moment and shook his head, saying in a deep voice: "No, I believe in the Prime Minister. If you act rashly in Tongguan, can you kill Prince Chu? Maybe you will hurt the king. If so, we will not be able to redeem it."
Xiahou Zao said anxiously: "Champion Hou..."
"Okay, you don't need to say more." Zhou Guanfu said coldly, "This matter is settled... Outside Tongguan Pass, the Chu army camp.
While welcoming Zhonglimei to the tent, Gao Chu asked with concern: "Old Zhongli, how have the iron bars and iron chains on the river waterway cleared? When will we enter the Wei River?"
Gao Chu was also a little anxious. If the river and Wei River waterway were not cleared for a day, the Chu army that penetrated deep into Guanzhong would not receive logistics supplies for a day. It would be very easy to change over time. If Lang'er had a few shortcomings, the fisherman would not be able to castrate him when he went back? Besides, the prince was also in Xianyang. If the prince had any good or bad luck, it would be a shake of the foundation of the country.
Zhongli Mei looked embarrassed and smiled bitterly: "The Duke of Wei doesn't know anything. It's easy to block the iron cable of the river. It can be melted by setting up a furnace, but it's difficult to clean the iron bars of the river. There is little progress."
Gao Chu frowned and said, "That's all I can do is to attack Tongguan."
However, there are 8,000 elite Han troops stationed in Tongguan, and there are tens of thousands of Han troops nearby, and there are peerless generals like Zhou Guanfu. How easy is it to succeed in a strong attack?
He slapped his hands. When Gao Chu was about to invite Zhonglimei to take the seat, his aide Xu Jiang suddenly hurried in and said happily: "Duke of Wei, Zhou Guanfu just came, they are going to surrender!"
"oh?"
"Um?!"
Zhongli Mei, Gao Chu was shocked when he heard this.
Then Zhong Limei said, "Duke of Wei, there must be a fraud!"
"Make a fraud?" Gao Chu narrowed his eyes slightly, then opened it suddenly and said with a grim voice, "No matter whether he is a fraud or a truth, as long as the Han army opens the door, it will be difficult to close it again, hey!"
After saying this, Gao Chu looked up and shouted, "Come here, beat the drum and gather the generals!"
A moment later, the sound of rapid war drums sounded in the Chu army camp. With the sudden and intense drum beats, the generals and schoolmen of each battalion and division rushed to Gaochu's central army tent.
In the afternoon of the same day, Gao Chu led his army to Tongguan.
To everyone's expectations, Zhou Guanfu and the Linjin guard Xiahou Zao did not make any mistakes, but simply offered their respective military talismans. Unlike Xiang Zheng's humility, Gao Chu honestly and unceremoniously accepted the military talismans, and sent troops to confiscate Tongguan and Linjin Han troops, and then concentrated on detaining them.
Almost at the same time, Zhou Yafu, who was stationed in Hexi, Li Shang, who was stationed in Shangjun, Jin Xu, who was stationed in the northern part, and Li Zuoche, who led his army to block the entrance of Ziwu Valley, also received letters from Bai Mo.
A few days later, Zhou Yafu, Li Shang and Jin Xu sent people to send their seals and military talismans to Xianyang. Li Zuoche also led his army to withdraw from the mouth of Ziwu Valley and placed Bishu's army into Guanzhong.
A few more days later, Bishu's army and Gao Chu's army arrived in Xianyang almost at the same time.
