Qin Emperor Ziying

Chapter 491 Zhang Liang ran away
Wancheng is very close to Wuguan, and it can be reached in two days if you march quickly.

That night, Liu Bangjun abandoned most of his luggage, and each soldier only carried five days' rations with him, and marched towards Wuguan in the dark.

In Liu Bang's view, it should be more than enough to rush to Wuguan in two days and three days to break through a Wuguan that is strong outside and weak in defense.

However, what Liu Bang, including Zhang Liang, didn't know was that as soon as he broke out of the camp on his front foot, a messenger from Ziying entered Wancheng on his back foot.

……

After two days of rapid march, Liu Bang's army finally came under Wuguan. However, Liu Bang did not dare to attack the city directly regardless of the exhaustion of the soldiers.

At this time, Zhang Liang held a piece of information in his hand, but his brows furrowed deeper and deeper.

According to the scouts who were one step ahead, when the scout army first arrived at Wuguan City, Wuguan City still had ten people per defense, but when the army arrived, Wuguan City had indeed reached 20 people per defense.

However, Zhang Liang carefully discovered that the time for each defense change on the Wuguan city wall was extended to four hours!
According to what Zhang Liangping has learned in his life, this situation must be due to the lack of defense in Wuguan City, and its guards are bluffing.

However, just like before, Zhang Liang always felt that he had missed something, and a sense of ominousness was always lingering.

Just when Zhang Liang was struggling, a soldier covered in dust and dust opened the military tent.

"How's the situation?" Seeing the soldier coming in, Zhang Liang hurried up and asked.

"Zhang Situ, you have miscalculated this time." However, before the soldier came, he spoke hastily, when a sarcastic voice came from outside the tent.

"Our army attacked for the first time this morning, and some soldiers successfully climbed to the top of Wuguan. Although they failed to break through Wuguan, the warriors who climbed first retreated completely.

According to what he saw, Wuguan City was really empty, and there was nothing behind the wall.I am afraid that Wuguan can be broken through in one day.

If Pei Gong had listened to me and bypassed Wancheng directly, I am afraid that he would have passed the Yinma Pass by now! "

Zhang Liang fixed his eyes and saw that the person who came was Li Shiqi who had been at odds with him.

Both of them are counselors, and Li Shiqi has clearly surrendered to Liu Bang, but Liu Bang always shows his "desire" for Zhang Liang intentionally or unintentionally, which makes Li Shiqi naturally competitive.

With Liu Bang's emphasis on Zhang Liang, if Zhang Liang really voted under Liu Bang's command one day, it would undoubtedly be a great challenge to his status.

But fortunately, Zhang Liang's identity is still South Korea's Situ, and this mistake in decision-making will definitely reduce Zhang Liang's importance to Liu Bang.

"Mr. Lao Guangye has been rushing to tell everyone, Liang really has something to give from his heart." Facing Li Shiqi's ridicule, Zhang Liang said lightly, comparing Li Shiqi to the messenger.

Hearing Zhang Liang's thorny words, Li Shiqi lost his temper immediately, and shook his hands with a reddish face and said, "I still need to discuss the military situation after entering the customs with Mr. Pei, so I won't bother Situ Han. "

After finishing speaking, Li Shiqi hurriedly left Zhang Liang's military tent, and Li Shiqi pronounced the word "Han" in the last sentence of Han Zhi Situ's extremely hard.

Obviously, Li Shiqi's last sentence was to sow discord between Zhang Liang and Liu Bang. After the siege, it was normal for the army to discuss the next siege plan. Liu Bang didn't send anyone to invite him, but it was practical.

"Ah!" Zhang Liang sighed, at this moment Zhang Liang even wondered whether it would be more appropriate for him to go back and continue to assist Han Wangcheng. Although Han Wangzhi was not talented, at least he obeyed his own decision.

Liu Bang's siege proceeded in an orderly manner, and almost every time a few soldiers attacked the city wall, they were driven down again.

Every time he sieges the city, Liu Bang has an illusion that as long as he puts more effort, he will definitely be able to capture Wuguan.

However, on the third day, the crumbling Wuguan City still hadn't been breached, and it always felt like it was on the verge of getting ready.

In this day's siege, the dawn of victory was clearly seen. Not only did Liu Bangjun successfully attack the top of the city, but he also successfully occupied a corner of the city wall and fought with the Qin army.

Later, under the counterattack of the Qin army regardless of the cost, it was able to defend the city of Wuguan.

However, a serious problem is now on Liu Bang's table. The army's food is almost exhausted, and there is only food left for the last meal.

At the military meeting this time, several of Liu Bang's planners had an extremely heated discussion on whether to fight or go. Among them, Li Shiqi insisted on attacking Wuguan with a last stand, because the situation of Wuguan seemed to be difficult to hold on to Liu Bangjun's plan. an attack.

"What's Situ's plan?" This time, because of the great importance of the plan, Zhang Liang, who is a "guest qing", was also invited over. At this time, Liu Bang once again thought of asking for Zhang Liang's opinion.

"Liang follows Mr. Guangye's intention." Facing Liu Bang's question, Zhang Liang cupped his hands slightly and expressed his thoughts.

"Okay, order the whole army to make meals immediately, and then attack the city with all their strength, without breaking it!" Liu Bang ordered.

In Liu Bang's view, today is the time when Wuguan City is broken.

However, after the military discussion, after Zhang Liang returned to his military tent, he carefully carried a small burden while Liu Bangjun was attacking the city with all his strength, avoided the patrolling guards, left the military camp and came to the nearby camp. On a hillside.

There were already several of his disciples waiting there.

"Situ, the food I've been waiting for is enough for ten days. However, my subordinates don't know anything about it. Our army is in a good situation. Why do we leave?" a doorman asked puzzled.

"These people are crazy. The city that should be captured in one day has not been captured in three days. I don't believe it if they say it's innocent, but Liu Ji doesn't listen to me. What can I do?" Zhang Liang sighed.
