Established a millennium family since King Wu defeated Zhou

Chapter 226
Xiang Yu is not familiar with Luo Ling, because Xiang Liang has always been in contact with Luo Ling, but Xiang Yu knows that Luo Ling values ​​​​himself very much, and has praised him many times for having the air of a holy king.

Sitting under the tree, Luo Ling looked at the heroic Xiang Yu, feeling a little pity, Xiang Liang was like a scabbard, able to keep Xiang Yu's extremely sharp knife in the sheath, preventing him from showing his sharpness wantonly, Even hurt yourself by mistake.

"Have you finished talking with Duke Chu? Come and sit down."

Luo Ling greeted Xiang Yu, he was almost ten years older than Xiang Yu, so he could be regarded as his half elder.

Xiang Yu still respected Luo Ling, not only because of Luo's status, but mainly because Luo Ling was kind to him. Hearing this, he sat opposite Luo Ling and saluted, "Mr. Luo."

Luo Ling pondered and said: "Duke Chu passed away, you are the new Duke Chu, and the allied princes will surely recognize it."

After Xiang Liang's death, what kind of face Xiang Yu will use to face the princes is a very important matter. He is not as prestigious as Xiang Liang, and his prestige is not enough to unify the power of Chu. A strong person is needed. Give him support.

Luo Ling's words are to express to Xiang Yu that I will fully support you, and then you can start contacting the forces of Chu State under Xiang Liang's command.

"The dead have passed away, the living should always move forward, both the Luo family and the Xiang family have great enmity with the state of Qin, and it is time to strive to be the first to overthrow the tyrant Qin.

You are a born military master and the best candidate to destroy the Qin Dynasty. This is the mission entrusted to you by Haotian and King Su. When you make immortal feats, you will be able to become a hero in the world in front of everyone. Lord of the world.

At that time, the entire Xiang family's ancestors will be proud of you, and Chu Gong must be able to rest in peace. "

Almost every sentence of Luo Ling's words touched Xiang Yu's heart. Xiang Yu gritted his teeth and said, "Don't worry, Lord Luo. I know the priorities in my heart. Now is the critical period for destroying Qin. When the soldiers came back, they heard that Zhang Han was fierce and brave, and Shandong heroes could not be restrained.

For more than 800 years, the Xiang family has always faced difficulties. In the past, when Wu State broke Yingdu, the ancestors covered the king and queen mother and died generously.

Even though Ji is not as talented as your ancestors, he still has the ability to ignore life and death, and Xiang's reputation will not be buried in Ji's hands. "

What Xiang Yu is most proud of in his life is his family background. He is really too proud. He wants to fight for the highest glory in the world for the Xiang family. He doesn't pay attention to any Qin country. The only thing he can look at It's Rockwell.

Luo Ling nodded secretly, what he liked most was Xiang Yu's ambition, he crossed his hands and saluted, "Duke Chu, may King Su be with you."

Xiang Yu was taken aback, this was the first time Luo Ling used an honorific title to him, and directly called him Duke Chu, Xiang Yu reacted, and also crossed his hands and said: "May King Su be with me."

……

After Xiang Liang's death, the princes of Chu State were all in mourning. They couldn't believe it. Chu State was about to dominate the world. They, the nobles of Chu State, were all going to rise. They didn't expect to encounter such a big blow suddenly.

Xiang Liang's death was not only his own, but also caused casualties to the Chu army. Although there are still a large number of children in the hometown of Chu, especially in the core area of ​​Jiangdong, who are willing to join the army, the Xiang family cherishes these Jiangdong children very much and has always been First go through training and then go to the battlefield.

As a result, Chu State will lose its strength for at least one year in the future, leaving only the Chu army under Xiang Yu's command as a support.

When Luo Ling and Xiang Yu walked in, they faced the melancholy nobles of the Chu Kingdom. When they saw Luo Ling walking in, they stood up and saluted. As for the position of the Patriarch of the Xiang Clan, I will call him Duke Chu."

Luoling called Xiang Yu the Duke of Chu, which was to admit that Xiang Yu inherited Xiang Liang's position among the heroes of Shandong. If they were unwilling to submit to Xiang Yu, it would be a disgrace to Luoling.

Everyone looked at the majestic Xiang Yu, and looked at each other a few times. Now that Chu State has suffered a serious setback, only the tens of thousands of Chu troops under Xiang Yu's command are the most elite. If they don't give Luo Ling face and follow in Xiang Yu's footsteps, not only Only the princes of Shandong, even in the state of Chu, they do not have their status.

So the crowd bowed directly to Xiang Yu and said, "Greetings, Duke Chu!"

Xiang Yu, who accepted everyone's worship, was not very happy, but directly said loudly: "I saw that all the gentlemen were sighing just now, it must be because of the previous failure.

But Ji wanted to say that it was just a small failure, and it really wasn't worth such a long sigh.

Before 1000 years, the state of Chu was just a sub-state, and the ancestors made great efforts to open up mountains and forests, and laid down five thousand miles of land with one knife.

Now that we have two thousand miles of fertile land east of the river and millions of people, do we still need to fear the tyranny of the Qin Dynasty?

Failure is nothing more than fighting again, and the current results have been achieved with great difficulty. Do you want to give it up?
If we retreat now, who will avenge the hatred of the Jiangdong disciples?Who will avenge so many Chu people who died at the hands of Tyrant Qin? "

These words made everyone's faces turn red, and Long Qi's temperament was more staunch, so he said immediately: "Duke Chu, I am willing to follow you and fight with the Qin army, please don't say anything."

Xiang Yu walked up to him and patted him heavily and said, "Okay! This is a good man of Chu State. Uncle always mentioned you to me, saying that you are good at fighting, and you are a rare general in Chu State. Zhang Han, you will be my deputy."

Luo Ling stood quietly by the side, he said very little, and spent most of his time observing, observing all the people and things he could see, this was one of the foundations of his exhaustive strategy.

……

Xiang Yu had [-] elite Chu troops, plus the defeated troops gathered by the nobles of Chu, and the troops left by Xiang Liang to Xiang Yu, the Chu army totaled [-]. As the Chu army began to gather again, the cloud of war once again loomed. Condensation over Handan County.

Xiang Yu and Luo Ling stayed together. According to Luo Ling's script, the protagonists of this war were naturally Xiang Yu, the military lord, and the elite Chu army he led. What he was responsible for was to force Zhang Han to a decisive battle.

In fact, as a natural commander, Xiang Yu made it clear when he came to Zhao, "From Chen Sheng to Wu Guang, what Zhang Han is best at is defending. method, so if you want to win, you must fight him head-on.

With the undeserved courage of all men, he is best at this kind of confrontation on the frontal battlefield, but if you want to force Zhang Han to a decisive battle, you must cut off his food and reinforcements, and this requires you to do it. "

Luo Ling nodded and said: "The hero sees the same thing. What the Duke of Chu said is exactly what Ling will do. The princes have already arrived around Zhang Han. According to the plan, they began to harass Zhang Han's grain roads. Zhang Han will definitely insist It will not stop fighting us head-on."

Among the princes in Shandong, only Xiang Liang and Luo Ling have the prestige to command the princes, but Xiang Liang is not capable enough, so with Luo Ling as the commander-in-chief, now is the time to play the role of an alliance.

In this war, Xiang Yu is of course the one with the most pressure, because whether it is a raid on the grain road or a small-scale battle, it does not affect the overall situation. on the war.

Once Zhang Han can't be defeated in the decisive battle on the frontal battlefield, all the previous efforts will be useless, and even become a joke.

A battle report was sent to Luoling, and it was a test for anyone to command so many soldiers and horses belonging to different princes at the same time, especially to adjust tactics and strategic goals according to changes in the situation. Luo Ling also felt a little bit of pressure.

Zhang Han clearly sensed the changes in the situation. He is the real talent of the sky. He has counted the entire era of heroes, and there are not many who can beat him. The princes of Shandong are patrolling around Zhao. Knowing that he has become a thorn in the side of the Shandong princes.

But Zhang Han was not afraid, on the contrary he said happily to the left and right: "When I was a young man in the old days, how could I have imagined that one day I would be able to stir up the world like I am now?
Your Majesty crowns me king, and the land of the Great Qin rests on my shoulders. This must be the highest honor of being a subject.

Defeating these rebels, killing them and then bringing their heads back to Xianyang will surely shock the people of the world, and use the sword in the hands of the widows to bring peace to Great Qin. "

Zhang Han was full of confidence, and then the news of grain roads being harassed made him utterly devastated. These actions could not directly defeat him, and as long as he wanted, he could directly retreat to Xingyang, where there was a big granary. Of course, he would not do that.

It is precisely because of this that Zhang Han is very puzzled by the behavior of Luo Ling and others. Can't run.

Zhang Han could leave here with the army at any time. After much deliberation, he finally came to a conclusion that made him somewhat unbelievable, "These rebels in Shandong want to fight again? This is to force the widows Fight them?"

No wonder Zhang Han couldn't believe it. He really didn't know why the Shandong kingdoms were so confident. The army of Chu had just been defeated, and the army of Zhao also suffered heavy losses. Normally speaking, at least the army should be reorganized and its strength restored.

It has just been less than a month, and it is absolutely impossible to restore strength, but it turns out that the next big battle is about to start directly, it is simply crazy.

How did he know that both Luo Ling and Xiang Yu couldn't wait to kill him, and then headed west, completely unwilling to waste any time.

On the contrary, Zhang Han was a little hesitant to fight again directly. While hesitating, he began to organize an army to wipe out those Shandong princes who participated in the raid on the grain road.

Zhang Han is a master at beating the rebels, basically all his families have suffered a lot of losses, but Luoling's goal is still being achieved steadily, because no one dares to disobey Luoling's orders at this time, Luoling almost used the strongest His tone declared to everyone the importance of this war.

----

Zhang Han was a seriously underestimated commander. People at the time praised him as "Baiqi Zhiya". The ancients never missed it when evaluating famous generals. This is enough to prove his talent.

He was born when the Qin Dynasty was about to be destroyed. He conquered countless Shandong uprisings and almost revived the Qin Dynasty's society, but fate did not favor him. His opponents were Xiang Yu and Luo Ling, who were extremely powerful in the whole history , which is doomed to failure. ——"The Destruction of the Empire·Qin Kingdom Chapter"
