No war broke out in winter. It was already the twelfth lunar month when Han Xin and Jiang Ming negotiated. Xiang An was busy taking care of the winter affairs in the vast area to ensure that the people could survive this winter. At the same time, he was discussing with the ministers next year's spring plowing and spring planting.
, and the war after next spring.
The war is not over yet. The four remaining princes in the world have to die and there is only one war left to end. Even after one person rules the world, he still has to spend a lot of energy to deal with possible rebellions, and he has to go south every autumn and winter.
The plundering Huns.
Therefore, although Liu Ji gave orders to Zi Huai, Zi Huai did not leave immediately, because in winter, Xiang Yu must have been busy dealing with the same things as Xiang An and Liu Ji, and the defense line would definitely change again in spring.
That's when Zihuai should do something.
"After so many years, there is still no news about your brother?"
Langya County, the source of glue, Xiang An and Zijuan were sitting in the mansion, chatting wordlessly.
"...No." Zijuan was also dealing with some documents. Hearing Xiang An's words, he couldn't help but sigh, "Liu Ji doesn't have a general named Zihuaai under his command. To be more detailed...
There are too many things to do, and there is no chance to look for them."
"...I'm sorry, Beichu has just been established, and there are too many things to put on your shoulders." Xiang An's hand that was writing paused for a moment, and his eyes were a little tired.
"I didn't say it was your fault, Second Brother, what are you apologizing for?" Zijuan couldn't help but laugh, "When I decided to leave Big Brother's place with you, Second Brother, I had already made plans to carry on this new country with you, Second Brother."
I'm ready, this is just a choice, my own choice, it has nothing to do with you, second brother."
"As for Ashu..." Zijuan's eyes dimmed slightly, "Although I feel sorry for him, I'll wait until Beichu is more stable before I go to find him."
"I must find him back." Zijuan's hand holding the pen was slightly firm and her tone was firm.
"Besides, second brother, you said there are so many things on my shoulders... Who can put as many things as you on your shoulders?" Zijuan looked at Xiang An and sighed.
Xiang An didn't respond, Quan pretended not to hear, and was still doing his own thing.
His hair and beard are a little gray, and this is still the case under the support of the powerful vitality of the salvation machine.
The battle with Xiang Yu by the river consumed too much of Xiang An's vitality. Although both of them were injured at the time, there was a poppy beside Xiang Yu who could share the pressure and help heal his injuries. Xiang An...
...Zi Juan was powerless, and Xiang An was able to bear the injuries that were so heavy that an ordinary person could die several times.
Moreover, Beichu was founded in troubled times, and the pressure and risks Xiang An had to endure were completely different from those of Liu Ji and Xiang Yu.
But the Xiang Security Department took over.
"After spring, Han Xin will definitely organize an offensive in the north, and the defense work in the south will still be left to General Wei." Xiang An avoided the previous topic and started talking about business.
"We can use the old county of Zhao State as the front line and fight Han Xinyou there." Zijuan's tone also became serious.
"No, it's too far north. Han Xin won't choose that side. He will definitely attack the old Wei Dynasty." Xiang An frowned, glanced at the map posted on the wall opposite, and thought for a moment, "After the spring plowing next year
, I will be his opponent myself."
"To the south, we have to consider the possibility of Liu Ji attacking both countries at the same time."
"So, if possible, we must annihilate the army led by Han Xin as soon as possible."
Xiang An raised his head, his tone filled with ferocity and... deep concern.
Han Xin...is not that easy to deal with.
...
"Lord Xiang Yu..." In Pengcheng, in the palace, the poppy sat next to Xiang Yu, looking sad.
"Yu..." Xiang Yu raised his head, looked at the sad Poppy, and couldn't help but shook his head, "Maybe I shouldn't have told you this so early."
"Is there really no room for mediation? Lord Xiang Yu, I..."
"This is for the world and the Central Plains." Xiang Yu interrupted Poppy's words and touched her head.
"Sorry, Yu...this is the meaning of my existence."
"Feel sorry......"
...
Winter passes quickly.
There will definitely be losses in winter, especially in the current troubled winter. Not only among civilians, but even among the army, starvation and freezing will occasionally occur.
But after the Spring Thunder, everything revived, along with the desire to fight.
The army was not engaged in production. After the beginning of spring, Han's all-out offensive immediately pressed on the two Chu states. Not only Western Chu had to face a large number of Han troops on the border, Han Xin also began to attack Northern Chu.
Zijuan, the general of the Shangzhu State of Northern Chu and also the Taiwei, immediately set off to the northern defense line to block Han Xin's attack. The harassment in the south was handled by another general conferred by Xiang An, Wei Hao.
superior.
After Xiang An arranged all the internal affairs of Beichu, he immediately set off and rushed to the north with the remaining army. He wanted to compete with Han Xin in terms of strength and try to directly direct Han Xin's military deployment in the north.
Destroy.
But, that is Han Xin.
How many generals dare to say that they can definitely defeat Han Xin?
Without any one of them, Xiang An wouldn't dare to say that.
The first wave of offensive failed, and Xiang An was unable to completely eliminate Han Xin in a short period of time.
After that, it was an offensive and defensive battle that lasted for half a year.
Xiang Yu did not waste his troops playing games with Liu Ji on the vast border, but chose to regroup his troops and attack to the west. However, his offensive was like hitting a sandbag, and Liu Ji did not
He did not think about completely defending Xiang Yu's attack, but chose to use his huge soldier base to fight Xiang Yu. When Xiang Yu attacked one side, Liu Ji only used a small part of his troops to defend, and then used most of his troops to defend.
The troops bypassed Xiang Yu's offensive and attacked other places in Western Chu.
This created a very strange scene.
Xiang Yu has been winning, but Han has never suffered a devastating blow, and even the map has not lost much. On the other hand, Xi Chu itself, although victorious in battles, has always been led by the Han, and its morale has been seriously depleted.
, no matter which direction we attack, we cannot continue to expand the territory of Xichu.
For a time, Han State actually contained two countries on both sides at the same time.
But the consequences of this are also very obvious. All the Han State can do is contain it. Western Chu and Northern Chu cannot really attack the Han State, and the Han State cannot truly destroy either of the two countries.
In this way, the three countries were entangled in an offensive and defensive battle to contain each other for a whole year.
