Wang Mang saw Ju Wuba and Liang Lin both looking shocked. He immediately pulled them over to apologize to Emperor Ming, but Emperor Ming naturally didn't care. Then Wang Mang took Ju Wuba and Liang Lin with him.
Taihang is under the forest.
After Wang Mang left, Emperor Ming dismissed his ministers, took Long Qie back to the palace alone, and said to Long Qie, "General Long, do you know all about the mission of leading the army into Bingnan this time?"
"Well, unite the Southern Allied Forces to fight against Qin Hao." Long Qie said seriously.
Emperor Ming smiled and shook his head, saying, "No, you are going to clean up the traitors."
"ah?"
Long Qie looked surprised. Emperor Ming did not explain anything and said directly, "Long Qie, listen to the order."
"The end will be here."
"Long Qie is now ordered to lead 50,000 troops, pretend to cooperate with the Bingnan coalition forces, enter Bingzhou and occupy Shangdang and Huguan."
"..."
Long Qie did not respond, but asked doubtfully, "But Your Majesty, if you fall out with Wang Shichong at this time, wouldn't it be an advantage for Qin Hao?"
Emperor Ming still had no intention of explaining, but just looked at Long Qie steadily. After a moment, Long Qie lowered his head, cupped his fists and said, "I obey."
"Go down."
"promise."
After Long Qie left, the man in the bamboo hat walked out from behind the screen and took off the bamboo hat he was wearing, and the face revealed was Xiang Yu.
Xiang Yu looked at Emperor Ming and said calmly, "Why didn't you tell Long Qie?"
Emperor Ming glanced at the man in the bamboo hat and said helplessly, "Now is not the time."
"That's right. The day you have been waiting for is finally coming."
"Yes, after the Qin and Jin families merged into one, and if the Ming Dynasty helped, they would have the ability to unify the world, end the troubled times, and calm the war. Isn't this our common expectation?"
Xiang Yu stared into Emperor Ming's eyes and said solemnly, "You know what I mean."
"Ha ha."
Emperor Ming smiled, then changed the subject and said, "Brother Xiang, I know this request is a lot of points, but I still hope you can stay."
"You know that's impossible. I don't want to be betrayed a second time."
Xiang Yu decisively refused. Seeing Xiang Yu's resolute attitude, Emperor Ming had no choice but to give up this unrealistic idea. After all, he and she almost tricked Xiang Yu to death in the first place. It was good that they didn't seek revenge on him.
"Then what are your plans next?" Emperor Ming asked.
Xiang Yu thought for a while and said, "Zhenbeiguan has fallen, and 300,000 foreigners have moved south. My brother Kongming is going to Hetao to help Qin Wen fight against Yuan Meng, and I am going to protect him all the way to Hetao."
Emperor Ming couldn't help but look weird when he saw this. He suppressed the overlord of an era, but now he was reduced to a bodyguard and thug. Isn't this too belittling the status of an overlord?
What did the brothers from the princes say to Xiang Yu to make Xiang Yu do this for him? Emperor Ming was extremely confused about this.
On the road leading to the north, a carriage was lying in the middle of the road. Yu Shilan stood on the carriage with her baby in her arms, looking towards the direction of Taihang, waiting for her husband to return.
"Da da……"
"Look, Brother Xiang is back."
Huang Rong smiled and Shi Lan couldn't help but smile happily when she saw that the figure on the horse was indeed Xiang Yu.
Xiang Yu rode up to the carriage and said to Zhuge Liang at the front, "Let's go."
After Zhuge Liang hesitated for a moment, he said, "Brother Xiang, actually you don't need to accompany me to the Hetao. I've already caused too much trouble for you along the way."
"Why should I be polite to your brother? Besides, we also want to contribute to the fight against the aliens."
As he said that, a glimmer of hope flashed in Xiang Yu's eyes, and he said in a deep voice, "I have been fighting with my own clan before, so naturally I can't miss this only opportunity."
Zhuge Liang couldn't help but show admiration on his face. He knew the grudges between Xiang Yu and Qin Hao. Now Xiang Yu could put aside the grudges in the past and help the Jin army fight against the aliens regardless of the past grudges. This kind of ambition is not something ordinary people can have.
"The eldest brother is so righteous, and the younger brother admires him."
When Zhuge Liang said this, Xiang Yu felt a little embarrassed.
"What's the point? Don't talk about me. Let's talk about you, brother Kong Ming. Are you sure you can help the Jin army survive this disaster?"
"well."
Zhuge Liang sighed and shook his head, with a solemn look on his face, and said in a deep voice, "The foreign tribes in the north took advantage of the melee between the Han princes and went south to invade my Han territory. Now even the Manchus are taking advantage of it.
Without the Manchu Qing to check them, Yuan and Meng can continue to mobilize their troops south. By then, the Jin army will definitely face more than 300,000 foreign troops."
"So, the Jin army will not be able to escape this time?"
Xiang Yu said with a serious face, after all, if the Jin army cannot stop Yuan Meng, hundreds of thousands of Yuan Meng cavalry will march south to the Central Plains, which will be bad news for the entire Han Dynasty.
"No, the Jin army was formed in the flames of war and has been fighting against foreigners since its establishment. It is by no means as fragile as it appears."
Zhuge Liang looked determined, and then said, "I always feel that the death of General Yang Ye is not that simple. He didn't have to die, but he died so deservedly in a weird way, which makes me have to doubt
He may have set up a back-up plan."
Yang Ye's death was reasonable in the eyes of most people, but in the eyes of a wise man like Zhuge Liang, it was full of flaws. He could see the unreasonableness in it at a glance, but due to limited intelligence and information congestion and lag, it was difficult for him to find it.
Conclusive and conclusive evidence.
"General Yang Ye is good at marching and fighting, and conspiracy is not his strong point. Even if he comes up with some good ideas, there will inevitably be loopholes in the implementation, and a small loophole may cause the entire plan to fail.
We must rush over now to understand the specific situation first. If General Yang Ye really has a back-up, we will help him improve his plan. If not, we can only find ways to deal with Yuan Meng from other aspects.
Already."
Zhuge Liang's words made Xiang Yu confused, but he still understood one thing.
"In this case, let's rush to Jinyang as soon as possible." Xiang Yu said.
Zhuge Liang shook his head, "No, let's go directly to the Hetao. There is someone there who may know the form of the Hetao better than Duke Jin."
"Oh? There are still people like this in the Jin army."
Xiang Yu looked surprised and asked, "Who is he?"
"The leader of the Jin army who succeeded General Yang Ye and fought against Yuan Meng, Wang Meng."
At this time, Wang Meng was troubled by the problems that Yang Ye had left for him. After careful study, he found that Yang Ye's plan was full of flaws. But now that the matter had come to this, Wang Meng could only do his best to make up for Yang Ye's mistakes.
But there were a few problems that even Wang Meng couldn't find a solution to.
After all, one person's wisdom is limited. Wang Meng still doesn't know that a wise man will help him in the future, and Zhuge Liang's arrival will definitely bring amazing changes to the battle situation in Hetao.
