Overlord of the late Qin Dynasty

Chapter 281 Hu Hai’s Death, Entering Guanzhong

Chapter 281 Hu Hai died and entered the customs ([-])
What Yuan Yi said was exactly what Cao Ge and Huang Bing were worried about.

But Cao and Huang had different ideas. After Cao Ge was appointed as the county guard by Zhao Gao, his family was taken into Guanzhong by the people of Heibingtai as hostages.Therefore, Cao Ge was very worried about the safety of his family members in Guanzhong.Huang Jie was just the opposite. He was originally a general in the army, and he happened to have served under Dong Yi's command.Later, Zhang Han went to the Guandong, but he was unable to join the army due to illness, so he stayed in Guanzhong, and Xianyang in Guanzhong changed drastically.Huang Jia also saw the opportunity to join Zhao Gao's family. After he recovered from his illness, he was appointed as the captain of Sanchuan County, in charge of the military of a county.

Huang Biao, who was born in Qianshou, was not suspected by Zhao Gao. In addition, Huang Biao had no children, so Zhao Gao did not leave his family in Xianyang.Therefore, Huang Jia can be said to be the only one among the three senior officials in Sanchuan County who has no worries.

"Yuan Xiancheng, do you want to surrender?" Yin Xiao asked sharply after Yuan Yi finished speaking, and put his hand on his waist and drew out his sword.

Seeing this, Cao Ge shook his head.Before the Chu army arrived, there was going to be chaos within him.

Then, Cao Ge shouted: "Yin Xiao, what are you going to do? Are you going to kill your colleagues? Take back your sword!"

"Yes, my lord!" Yin Xiao was the one who was pulled out by Cao Ge, and when he heard this, he cupped his hands in response, and put the sword back into its sheath.

"I think it's better to surrender!" Huang Jia said softly after Yin Xiao put the sword back into its sheath.

Of the [-] soldiers in the entire Sanchuan County, except for the [-] soldiers led by the county captain of Luoyang County, the rest are in the hands of Huang Jia.Although what Huang Jie said was as light as a breeze, it caused the hearts of the four present to stir up turbulent waves.

Huang Jie also knew what impact his words would have on everyone. He continued to explain: "The Chu army not only outnumbers me in terms of numbers and equipment, but its front commander, Dong Yi, is also my Qin general. I, Sanchuan There is no chance of winning at all! If I surrender, the people of Sanchuan will not suffer from the war, and we can continue to restore the livelihood of the people of Sanchuan County. Why not do it?"

"My lord's family is in Luoyang, while the family of the county sheriff and the censor are in Xianyang as hostages. If he surrenders, won't the county lieutenant harm the families of the other two lords?" Yin Xiao didn't dare to deal with Huang Jia. Presumptuous, but also questioning his boss in an unpleasant tone.

"County Yin doesn't know how powerful the Chu army's intelligence system is!" Huang Jia said seriously after hearing the words. "When Zhang Han, Dong Yi, Sima Xin and others descended to Chu, their families were no longer in Xianyang. Before I surrender, I can secretly contact General Dong Yi. Let him report to Xiang Yu, Duke of Han, to rescue Caojun, Luo. Censor's family. Isn't this the best of both worlds?"

Huang Jie's words made everyone get out of the entanglement and found another way.

The next day, the county lieutenant Huang Jia led the army out of the city, leaving only the original [-] soldiers in charge of security in the city.

Then, dozens of riders from the camp outside the city headed south.

Goushi County.

At this time, Goushi was already occupied by the state of Chu, and Dong Yi, the general of Chu state, took Goushi County, which had no troops stationed, without any effort.

The first Chu army had 36000 soldiers, Dong Yi's 3000 personal soldiers, and a brigade of 6000 auxiliary soldiers. The Chu army stationed in Goushi County and the camp outside the county amounted to [-].

The auxiliary soldiers were added by Xiang Yu as an army after he reformed the military system.As the soldiers and horses temporarily stopped during the war, it is responsible for the miscellaneous affairs of the army during the war, dispatching 1500 government soldiers and recruiting 4500 civilians.

After Dong Yi captured Goushi County, Zhang Han sent an order to suspend the march to Luoyang.

Dong Yi, who received the order, knew what Zhang Han was thinking, so he also ordered the whole army to stay at Goushi for repairs.

Dozens of cavalry suddenly appeared in Goushi County, and some sentry cavalry had already reported to Dong Yi in the city.

Dong Yi immediately ordered Lieutenant Hu Ju'er to lead five hundred cavalry to control the dozens of cavalry and bring them to the county government.

At the county government, Dong Yi is waiting with Cao He, the new magistrate of Goushi County sent by Xiang Yu.

Cao He is a relative of Cao Jiu, the governor of Runan County. Xiao He recommended him to Xiang Yu because of his political talents.This time, the magistrate of Goushi County abandoned the city and fled after Dong Yi's army arrived. Dong Yi reported to Xiang Yu to appoint a new county magistrate.

It happened that after Cao He was recommended by Xiao He, Xiang Yu arranged for him to be in charge of people's livelihood in Yangdi, so he ordered him to be the magistrate of Goushi County.All the way at high speed, Cao He arrived at Goushi from Yangzhai, Yingchuan within 5 days.

"The County Magistrate Cao is here, so this general will feel relieved! The political affairs in the county these days will make this general cry!" Dong Yi smiled and chatted with Cao He.

Dong Yi knew that Cao He was a relative of Cao Jiu, governor of Runan County, so Dong Yi dared not and could not offend this man from the Chu family.

"General Dong has said it before! The general is capable of writing and martial arts, and it is easy to govern a single county. The general has managed Goushi County in an orderly manner these days? Even if he arrives later, it will be fine!" Cao He said to Dong Yi also responded with a smile and spoke earnestly.

"Haha!" After a haha, Dong Yi said, "There are people coming from Luoyang. I am afraid that Cao Ge, the governor of Sanchuan County, is about to surrender! We must be prepared, otherwise we will be in a hurry!"

"The general is right!" Cao He nodded approvingly.

While the two were talking, Hu Ju'er brought the head of the cavalry from Luoyang to the county government.

"General, County Magistrate Cao." After Hu Ju'er saluted Dong Yi and Cao He, he pointed to the soldiers of the Qin army behind him and said, "This is Huang Jing, Lieutenant of Sanchuan County, Captain of the Military Academy."

"Huang Jing met General Dong and the county magistrate!" Huang Jing bowed to Dong Yi and Cao He knowingly.

"Huang Jie?" Dong Yi was a little puzzled when he heard Huang Jie's name, and then asked Huang Jing, "You are a county captain from Jayang?"

"Report to General Dong! The Commandant is from Jayang, and he served under General Dong when he was in Guanzhong!" Huang Jing hurriedly said when he heard Dong Yi's question.

"It really is him!" Dong Yi laughed after hearing Huang Jing's reply. "I didn't expect this kid to become a county lieutenant now!"

Then, Dong Yi said, "What did this kid send you here for?"

"Report to General Dong! The Commander sent the villain here to dedicate Sanchuan County to the general!" Huang Jing looked at Dong Yi cautiously and said softly.

"Oh?" Dong Yi was very surprised.

Cao He on the side was even more surprised, although both of them had guessed that the governor of Sanchuan County and others would definitely surrender.But I didn't think about how fast it would be. It's so powerful to take down Sanchuan County without a fight, I don't know where to use it!

"My county lieutenant and Yuan Yi, Luoyang County, proposed to surrender to the Chu army, but the county guard, Cao Ge, and the supervisor, Shi Luozheng, hesitated. Because their wives and children are in Guanzhong, they dare not agree rashly. Huang Jing was afraid that Dong Yi would not believe him, so he hurriedly said what Huang Jie had told him. "My county lieutenant persuaded the two of them, and then promised that the Chu army would rescue the wives and children of the two adults. The two adults just agreed, but it is necessary for the Chu army to rescue their family first!"
