.1 After reading the book, Xiao He's face changed drastically.

Lu Zhi frowned and asked softly: "Prime Minister, what's the fortune of the money?"

Xiao He took a deep breath, tried his best to calm the shock in his heart, and replied calmly: "Queen, the king's letter said that the remnants of the Chu army in Xiangzhuang had captured the three 11 counties. At present, one Chu army guarded Hulao Pass and blocked the king's army from entering the three 11. The other Chu army is attacking Hangu Pass, and said that it is possible to enter Guanzhong at any time!"

"What?!" Lu Zhi was shocked when she heard this and said in a lost voice, "Prime Minister, is this true?" Xiao He nodded, his expression on his face was still calm, but his heart was already filled with storms.

As the prime minister of the Han Dynasty, Xiao He is still very talented, especially a little bit of knowledgeable. Xiao He knows that Zhang Liang and Chen Ping are both talented people who are rare. Since even Chen Ping said that the Chu army had the possibility of capturing Hangu Pass and entering Guanzhong, the matter must have been very serious. Maybe, the Chu army has broken through the pass now!

However, Xiao He didn't dare to tell Lu Zhi about these things, nor could he tell anyone about them.

Otherwise, Guanzhong will be in chaos immediately, and the old Qin clans will be ready to move immediately.

When Xiao He thought of the old Qin clan, he had a headache. To this day, the once glorious Qin Empire has perished, but there are many aristocratic clans left by the Qin Empire. Liu Bang absorbed some of them when he entered Guanzhong, and Xiang Yu killed a large number of them when he entered Guanzhong, but there are still many old clans left, and there are also several famous families.

Once these old clans know that the Chu army is about to enter the pass, what's wrong?

It is said that Qin and Chu are irreconcilable enemies, but Xiao He knew that they were just means used by rulers to fool the people and transfer domestic conflicts. In fact, the powerful aristocratic families of various Chinese countries have never had a clear concept of state. Therefore, as long as Chu can give them greater benefits, they will cooperate with Chu without hesitation!

If the Han King's army was still in Guanzhong, these old clans would not be worrying at all.

But the problem now is that the military forces in Guanzhong are extremely empty, especially since Xiao He just transferred three thousand soldiers from Xianyang three days ago to Hangu Pass. Now, even Xianyang City has only less than two thousand defenders left. Once the Chu army enters Guanzhong, once the old Qin clan moves when he hears the news, the situation in Guanzhong will immediately get out of control!

Xiao He was so calm that he said, "Queen, don't panic, the Chu army has not yet entered the pass." After saying this, Xiao He said, "However, for safety reasons, the queen and the prince can no longer stay in Xianyang. I will arrange elite cavalry to escort the queen. The princess has several princes. The princess goes to Hanzhong. The Xi Juan army guards and Chencang Pass is also in danger of the world. Since the remnants of the Chu army enter the pass, it is impossible to enter Hanzhong!"

Although Lu Zhi was quite scheming, she was a fu Taoist family after all. She did not dare to sing a opposite tune with Xiao He on military matters, and she responded timidly at the moment.

At that moment, Xiao He hurried back to his residence, arranged troops to escort Liu Bang's family to Hanzhong for refuge, and wrote three letters to condemn the flying cavalry to Longxi, Beidi and Shangjun to dispatch troops to defend Xianyang!

To be honest, when Zunfeng sent people to challenge reinforcements, Xiao He didn't care much about it, so after confiscating 3,000 troops to Hangu Pass, he did not rush to dispatch troops from various counties.

But now, Xiao He realized that things were much more serious than what Ju Feng said in his letter!

At this moment, Xiao He really regretted his intestines. If he had known this, he would have asked for help from various counties. If this were the case, the reinforcements from various counties would have almost arrived in Xianyang.

But at this point, it can only be a repair to the dead.

Zheng County, nearby mountains.

At night, three fast horses galloped on the mountain road.

With the faint light of the waning moon, you can vaguely see that the rider in front is a white-clothed man, the rider behind is a young and strong man in hunting clothes and carrying bows and arrows, and the rider in the middle is a graceful little girl. The girl is at most seventeen or eighteen years old, with pink cheeks and snow fu, chun like Danju, especially her big eyes that are as bright as stars, smiling before she speaks, which is very charming.

The three riders rushed up a low mountain beam. The white-clothed handsome man suddenly yelled at the reins of the horse. The mount under his crotch suddenly stood up and stopped the forward rushing momentum. This time it became hasty, but the two riders behind him still strangled the mount with their superb riding skills and did not hit the white-clothed handsome man in front.

"Little sister, you see, there is a fire in the county!" The white-clothed scholar whispered in a low voice, pointing his finger in front of him.

The strong man in hunting clothes and the charming little girl looked in the direction of the white-clothed handsome man's fingers. Sure enough, she saw a huge fire in the county and town. With the red light of fire, she could also see dense figures, as if they were army. Looking at their battle robbers, it seemed to be Han army, but why did the Han army loot the county and town?

"It seems to be the old man of Liu Bang." The hunting man said, "They are looting the county."

"This is strange." said the charming little girl. "Didn't Liu Bang always boast about benevolence and righteousness? How did he tear off the disguise on his face this time? But the people in the people were suffering.

"There must be a hidden story in this matter, and I'm afraid it won't be that simple." The white-clothed scholar waved his hand and said again, "But, we don't have to pay attention to this for the time being, so we should go back to the fort as soon as possible." "Yes, yes, let's go back to the fort." The hunting man hurriedly said, "Don't let Liu Bang's old man take the opportunity to rob our fort. My mother is still in the fort."

"Brother, let's go back quickly." After saying that, the charming little lady immediately turned around and left.

The white-clothed man looked at each other, turned his horse's head, and rushed along the mountain road to the other side of the mountain valley. In less than a moment, he disappeared under the vast night sky.

Zheng County, county town.

The once prosperous counties and towns have become hell like umbrellas!

In the afternoon, teams of defeated Han soldiers rushed into the county town. They did not kill people, but only rob food everywhere. But in the evening, tens of thousands of defeated Han soldiers rushed into the county town along the way. These defeated Han soldiers were much more fierce. They not only chased and killed the defeated Han soldiers who had entered the city before, but also killed the people in the city in a disagreement!

In addition to killing people, the Han soldiers who later entered the city also burned houses everywhere and snatched things everywhere.

Compared to killing and setting fires, thousands of girls were not so noticeable. After all, in that distant ancient times, the customs of Guanzhong were quite open, and many places even retained the custom of wives and guests. Moreover, even Confucianism did not advocate the saying that women were loyal to each other.

At this moment, the entire county has completely become hell!

"Heavenly killed you all these days!" An old man sat in his yard crying and robbed the earth. "You snatched away half a bag of millet at home, but how can we live? Liu Bang, you kill thousands of swords, the three-year exemption period has just arrived. If you don't want to send troops to grab grain and taxes, you will be killed by a thousand swords, and you will not die well..."

Not far away, a young man with a solid figure was sitting on the threshold and crying loudly.

Not far from the young man, there was an old man with a white beard lying. The old man was so angry that he was only half breathing.

"Brother, second brother, have you seen it? Liu Bang's old soldier burned all our house. Grandpa now has no place to live, no place to live. Oh, brother, stop working hard for Liu Bang, anyway, I can't earn any title of Lu Mi, my family will still be bullied by him, hoho

…”

Along the way, a group of riots rushed into a house with great momentum.

Then the sound of chaos and dogs rang out in the yard. In order to chase a hen, a rioter even jumped over the three courtyard walls and walked out of the yard next to the strong man. Before leaving, he glared at the strong man fiercely. The young man saw the long sword hanging around the waist of the rioter, and was immediately frightened and silent.

……………………

Outside the county town, Tian Heng looked at the sky-sky fire in the city and sighed quietly.

Tian Heng was once the king of the country of Shou and considered himself a cruel and ruthless person, but until today he realized that he was still far behind Xiang Zhuang and Wei Liao. Xiang Zhuang and Wei Liao were so cruel!

However, Tian Heng also admitted that this move is quite powerful and can be said to be a trick!

First, through burning, killing, killing, looting and venting beasts along the way, more than 15,000 new recruits who survived the Battle of Hangu Pass will completely transform into a group of bloodthirsty tiger and wolf soldiers, and the combat effectiveness of this army will also be transformed into a complete improvement. This is a great help for the State of Chu, which is at its end of its reach!

Secondly, since the rebellious soldiers were all wearing Han army armor, the people of Guanzhong would only record these blood debts on Liu Bang.

In this way, Liu Bang's foundation in Guanzhong will suffer double destruction. First, after the chaos, the people of Guanzhong will be displaced, and the Han army will lose the large granary of Guanzhong. Second, Liu Bang's reputation will also be severely damaged. The people will not believe the government's explanation, they only believe in their own eyes!

It can not only train troops, but also destroy Liu Bang's foundation in Guanzhong. This is a killing of two birds with one stone!

Suddenly, a rapid sound of horse hooves suddenly sounded behind him. When Tian Heng looked back quickly, he saw that Xiang Zhuang's new right Sima Jinxiang, who had first entered the camp, was already galloping under the crowd of more than ten cavalry.

"General Tian Heng." Jin Xiang bowed to Tian Heng on the horse's back and said, "The General has an order. The left army will take a break and immediately send troops to Xianyang, and there must be no mistakes!"

"No!" Tian Hengyao bowed to the east, then he immediately pulled his horse and left.
