Chu and Han contend for the throne

Chapter 136 Wei Liao's Vision

Just as he was worried, Xiangzhuang's army entered the city.

Xiang Zhuang heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that the two armies were facing each other from afar.

It seems that Tian Heng is a smart person, and Xiao Kai did not mess around. As long as this conflict does not turn into a large-scale melee, the situation will still be within the controllable range, and there is no need to even kill people.

Seeing Xiang Zhuang and Wei Liao approaching under the guard of hundreds of soldiers, Tian Heng didn't dare to neglect, and hurriedly led Tian Ruifei, Zidu and other generals to meet him.

Xiao Kai in Miyagi saw it from a distance, and hurriedly brought his generals out of the city to greet him.

Xiang Zhuang didn't pay any attention, and rode his horse straight to the main gate of the palace city, then got off his horse, pointed at the hundreds of corpses lying on the ground, and shouted sharply: "Who can tell me what's going on here? ? My brothers didn’t die by the enemy’s swords and halberds, but died by their own hands, hey, what’s going on?”

Xiao Kai and the dozen or so generals behind him all lowered their heads.

To be honest, this conflict was not provoked by Xiao Kaijun, but neither Xiao Kai nor the generals under Xiao Kai came out to defend themselves, because there was no need for it, because they all knew that no matter when, The general will never let them suffer. The general is notorious for defending his shortcomings or saying that he must retaliate.

"Don't say anything, right?" Xiang Zhuang's knife-like eyes glanced over the faces of Xiao Kai, Tian Heng, Tian Ruibai, Zidu and others, and then he shouted fiercely, "Okay, since you don't want to say yes Whoever picks the head, the general will ask himself..."

Before the words were finished, Tian Libai had already strode up to the general, cupped his hands and said: "General, everything happened because of the last general, it has nothing to do with the last general's uncle and the soldiers of the right army, whether he was fighting or killing the last general, he recognized it, and hoped to see it again." The general should not implicate the uncle of the last general and the more than 2000 soldiers of the right army, they...are innocent!"

Xiang Zhuang couldn't help but think highly of Tian's dilapidated state, he is a man who dares to act and act.

"Okay, I'm pretty brave." Xiang Zhuang nodded, and said again, "Then let me ask you, what's going on?"

Tian Ruibai said: "The military order is issued by the last general, and the melee is also provoked by the last general. Whether to fight or kill, the general can do whatever he wants."

Having said this, Tian Libai poked his neck, and said: "The last general is just not convinced. The soldiers of my right army fought hard for two hours, and finally broke through Xianyang, but the rear army took advantage of the emptiness to break through the city and took away the first victory. And captured the palace first, the general thought that the rear army took advantage of my right army, and the treasures in the palace should be divided equally between the two!"

"Shut up!" Xiang Zhuang was furious, and he whipped Tian Ruifei's face.

Tian Ruibai suddenly became a little dazed, Xiang Zhuang snorted, and then shouted sharply: "I tell you, we are the Chu army, soldiers of the Great Chu Kingdom, not thieves and strong men! Just draw your swords to each other, but as a soldier, you can never point your weapons at your brothers."

After that, Xiang Zhuang pointed at the Xianyang Palace again, and shouted sharply: "Isn't it just a Xianyang Palace, isn't it just a little gold, silver, jewelry, silk and satin? Can it be eaten or worn as armor? On the battlefield, they can Save your lives? When the enemy's arrows are shot, can they block the arrows for you?"

"No, no!" Xiang Zhuang patted his chest and continued to growl, "On the battlefield, they are the ones who depend on your life and death, defending you from arrows and serving as human shields!" Xiang Zhuang said, pointing and lying on the ground There were hundreds of corpses, and he said bitterly, "It's these robes and brothers who died under your sword, it's them!"

"Today, you stab them with swords. Tomorrow, others can stab you with swords! Think about it, who is willing to go to the battlefield with a person who dares to stab swords at himself? Who is willing to fight with him? He entrusts him with life and death? Hey, who is willing? At least...I don’t want to!"

A look of shame finally appeared on Tian Ruibai's face.

Xiao Kai and the dozens of generals behind him also showed shame on their faces.

Tian Heng also had a pensive look in his eyes. He expected that Xiang Zhuang would take advantage of this incident to establish his prestige, but he did not expect such a prestige, but Tian Heng had to admit that this prestige was more powerful than he originally thought. It is much more clever, it is easy to kill people, but it is not easy to kill people, gain authority and convince both parties.

However, Xiang Zhuang seems to have done it. It seems that he was able to lead thousands of remnants out of the encirclement of Liu Bang's hundreds of thousands of troops. Everyone who has ever lived is smart, whether it is Han Xin or Peng Yue, it seems that they are not as good as Xiang Zhuang in this respect.

Xiang Zhuang shouted again: "Anyone with blood on their hands, stand up!"

Tian Liluo bowed his head, and was the first to stand up, followed by dozens of small schools, and behind Xiao Kai, more than a dozen small schools also walked out with their heads down, Xiao Kai thought about it and stood up Well, although his hands were not stained with the blood of his own people, as a general of the rear army, he also bears the inescapable responsibility for this matter.

"Go back, I know this has nothing to do with you." Xiang Zhuang couldn't help but push Xiao Kai back.

Xiang Zhuang strode up to the dozens of Chu army small schools again, and said murderously: "You have blood on your hands, according to the military regulations, you will be beheaded to show the public, but I think this is the first time you have committed a crime, and now it is yours again. When employing people, I will give you a chance to redeem your merits, but all the military exploits you have earned before will be wiped out, will you accept it?"

"Submit." Tian Libai first agreed dejectedly, and dozens of small schools also agreed.

Xiang Zhuang said again: "Also, you can be spared the death penalty, but you cannot escape the life penalty. Each of you can be whipped eighty times, will you accept it?!"

When Tian Libai was about to answer, Xiang Zhuang stared and shouted: "As for you, Tian Libai, as the deputy general of the right army, doesn't know how to restrain his subordinates, but provokes troubles instead. It's especially abominable. You will be whipped two hundred times immediately!"

After Xiang Zhuang finished speaking, he waved his hand, and dozens of relatives rushed forward like tigers and wolves to detain Tian Ruibai and dozens of small schools, and then the long whips of "噗", "噗", "噗" sounded in front of Xianyang Palace There was the sound of beating flesh, Tian Lipai and dozens of Xiaoxiao were beaten to pieces, but all of them gritted their teeth, and no one moaned.

Xiang Zhuang looked back at Xianyang Palace again, and when he was about to set fire to it, Wei Liao suddenly tugged at his sleeve.

At that moment, Xiang Zhuang followed Wei Liao to a secluded place, and said in a low voice: "Military Master, what's your idea?"

Wei Liao said in a low voice: "General, after thinking about it, I always feel that there is still this palace built by Xiao He in Xianyang City. It is better to keep it than to burn it!"

"Well, it's better to keep it than to burn it?" Xiang Zhuang frowned, "Military Master, don't you have a soft heart?"

The Chu army's Guanzhong strategy had been drawn up as early as the Dabie Mountains, and it can be summed up in two words-destroy!
Except that Qiao Zhuang Han army burned, killed and looted Guanzhong, while destroying the foundation of Guanzhong's population, it also destroyed Liu Bang's reputation for benevolence and justice as much as possible. Xiang Zhuang never thought of completely destroying the foundation of Guanzhong, which is basically impossible. Zhuang's bottom line is to ensure that Liu Bang will not be able to use large-scale troops in the Kanto within three to five years.

In this way, Xiang Zhuang has three to five years to use his methods against the princes of the Kanto.

Even if Han Xin, Peng Yue, Yingbo, Zhang Er, Zang Tu and other princes from all walks of life cannot be provoked to fight with Liu Bang, at least they must destroy the alliance relationship between them.

It shouldn't be difficult to achieve this goal, because no matter what kind of alliance it is, the basis for its existence is to have a common and powerful enemy. With a little operation, this alliance will definitely disappear and disintegrate.

Therefore, Xiang Zhuang will never be soft on the damage to the foundation of Guanzhong.

Wei Liao waved his hand and said: "General, I am not soft-hearted. I still say the same thing. If you want to break Liu Bang's sweeping power across the world, one is to force Liu Bang to return to Guanzhong, so that the princes from all walks of life will support their troops and create their own. The opportunity is to destroy Liu Bang's foundation in Guanzhong, making it impossible to dispatch a large army to attack Guandong in a short time, but..."

After saying this, Wei Liao said again: "Today I saw Xianyang City, which was renovated by Xiao He, and this palace, which is even more luxurious than the Qin Palace. The old man has a new idea. General, Liu Bang is not good this year. Already 55, and five years from now will be the year of Ershun, how much ambition will be left by then?"

"Military division, you mean..." Xiang Zhuang's heart skipped a beat when he heard this.

Wei Liao's meaning is obvious, Guanzhong must be destroyed, and it must be destroyed severely.

However, Xianyang City and the Han Palace in front of us can stay. In this way, on the one hand, Liu Bang can enjoy the luxurious life in Xianyang City, but on the other hand, he has to face the embarrassing situation of not being able to recruit soldiers and food. As he gets older, within a few years, Liu Bang no longer has the ambition to compete in the Central Plains.

After all, Liu Bang is 55 years old, but Xiang Zhuang is only 25 years old!

Age is his biggest advantage in Xiang Zhuang, he can kill Liu Bang even if he is exhausted!

This old guy Wei Liao's vision is poisonous, he saw the crux of the problem at a glance!
Seeing that Xiang Zhuang's heart was moved, Wei Liao said with a smile: "General, what do you think?"

"According to the advice of the military advisor!" Xiang Zhuang slammed the festival heavily, then turned around and shouted, "Where is Jin Xiang?"

Jin Xiang hurriedly took two steps forward, clasped his fists in both hands and said loudly, "The last general is here!"

Xiang Zhuang said: "Lead the troops to guard the palace and Xianyang City immediately. From now on, all soldiers of the army are not allowed to enter the city without reason, let alone tamper with any grass or tree in Xianyang City. Anyone who violates the order...will be killed without mercy!"

"No!" Jin Xiang agreed with a bang, and immediately took Xian Dengying to take over the palace.

As for Xiao Kai and Tian Heng, they left Xianyang with their respective songs and went to camp outside the city.

Regarding Xiang Zhuang's military order, Xiao Kai has nothing to say, Tian Heng has nothing to say, and he also believes that Xiang Zhuang will never treat the more than 2000 soldiers of the Right Army badly.
