The old place of Chu State in the south of the Great Qin Dynasty, the capital of New Chu, Shouchun, on the tenth day of the September 1st year of the Second Emperor.
Since the founding of the new Chu Kingdom, this old palace that once belonged to the king of Chu has been cleaned up. Although it is not much worse than the Xianyang Palace of the Great Qin Dynasty, it is already the best palace compared to the Chu Kingdom.
It's right.
Today, the huge Chu Palace is full.
On the left side of the hall, the general, the Grand Sima (in charge of the army), the upper pillar country (in charge of the army), Wu Xinjun (who was self-proclaimed when Xiang Liang raised his army) Xiang Liang ranked first in the left, and under Xiang Liang was the Left Sima (
Deputy of the Grand Sima), Song Yi, then the Right Sima, Wu Rui, Wu Zeng, Fan Zeng, Zhang Liang, the Second General Xiang Yu, Long Ju, Ying Bu, Ying Bu, and followed Wu Rui to join the Chu State
More than a dozen Baiyue elders who were granted the title of official title by the King of Chu.
On the right side of the hall, the commander-in-chief (prime minister) Zhaotong ranked first in the right. Below Zhaotong were the left Yin (deputy prime minister) Jing Gong, the right Yin Jing Tong, and Mo Ao (no specific duties, but Mo Ao could represent Chu.
King) Qu Ping, Gong Yin (the chief official in charge of engineering construction) Showa, Lang Yin (the chief official in charge of execution) Qu Bu, Zuo Tu (can represent the king of Chu to handle internal and external affairs. Zuo Tu can be directly promoted to Ling Yin at critical moments
, with a close relationship with the King of Chu, surrendered, the Sanlu doctor (in charge of the royal family) Qu Jian, the doctor (the commander of the King of Chu) Jing Cong, and more than ten people who depended on the three tribes of Zhao Qu and Jing, and surrendered after the establishment of the new Chu Kingdom.
Officials of the Chu family nobles.
On the left and right of the hall, all civil and military officials are clearly distinguished!
After Xiang Liang brought hundreds of thousands of people who were plundered from Sishui, Dang County and Chen County back to Shouchun, the honeymoon period between the Xiang family and Zhao Qu Jing, the three major tribes of Chu was truly over.
The two sides fought for a series of official positions in the court, which was no less than a battlefield fight.
After a series of exchanges, the Xiang clan finally controlled more than 90% of the troops in Xinchu. Under the pressure of the Zhaoqujing tribes, Song Yi, who had already worn a pair of pants with the Zhaoqujing tribes, was forcibly stuffed into Xiang.
Liang's subordinates became the second-in-commander of the military in the state of Chu, nominally second only to Xiang Liang.
However, the entire Chu civil servants' group basically had nothing to do with the Xiang clan. From top to bottom, except for the county magistrate and county magistrate of Kuaiji, the former Jiangdong land, belonging to the Xiang clan. The rest of the other Jiujiang, Qianzhong, Hengshan, and Fujianzhong were the ones.
All the officials in Changsha, Lujiang and other counties basically came from the disciples of the three tribes of Zhaoqu and Jing.
Of course, there are also a few former county magistrates and county magistrates who chose to submit to the State of Chu.
If it weren't for the support of Ziying and Zhao Tuo, the three tribes of Zhao Qujing would not have the confidence to compete with Xiang Liang at all. Before Xiang Liang returned to Shouchun, with the help of Ziying, the three tribes of Zhao Qu Jing provided by Ziying
The Qin army armed an army of 100,000 people, firmly controlling Shouchun and several relatively wealthy counties around it.
It was this 100,000 army that made Xiang Liang finally choose to take a step back.
Of course, the most important thing is not because of the 100,000 army. It is because the Zhao Qu Jing tribes agreed to send half of the weapons sent by Ziying from Nanyue to support Chu to Xiang Liang. This is the fundamental reason why Xiang Liang took a step back.
Xiang Liang was worried that the South Vietnamese side would no longer support the Chu State, so this was the case. However, he obviously underestimated Zhao Tuo's courage. After learning that Xiang Liang returned to Shouchun, Zhao Tuo was in succession.
Armed with weapons that can equip more than 100,000 troops.
Although they are all old goods eliminated by the South Vietnamese army, they are much better than the knives, forks and wooden sticks used by Xiang Liang's army.
At the same time, all the civil servants in the State of Chu were divided into three tribes of Zhao Qujing, and the Xiang clan did not even get an official position with a size of sesame, mung beans. Both sides were officially torn apart.
Today, I don’t know how many times the two sides have quarreled in the Chu Palace Hall in more than a month.
The quarrel between the two sides, from the initial distribution of interests such as official positions, to the deployment of troops, to the distribution of weapons, etc., anything takes at least several days to finally reach a compromise.
However, today, the purpose of the quarrel between the left and right sides has changed.
Everything was because of the two edicts that Shouchun had just received that Hu Hai, who had returned to Shouchun from Xianyang, expelled Ziying from the Ying royal family and was about to attack Nanyue.
According to the principle, the news from Xianyang reached Shouchun, if it was not a special channel, it would take at least ten to twenty days. The reason why Chu State was able to receive the news so quickly was due to the help of Jixia Academy.
The three tribes Xiang Liang and Zhao Qu Jing who received the news had completely different reactions.
Xiang Liang's side believed that Hu Hai was arrogant and was arrogant. He was even willing to use troops to Nanyue and Chu at this time. This was a great opportunity for Chu. He should contact the Nanyue side to send troops at the same time, taking advantage of the ups and downs of preparation for the people of the Qin Dynasty.
The Chu army crossed the Huai River and destroyed the two Qin troops on the north bank of the Huai River, and then went directly from Wuguan to the north; while Nanyue directly sent troops to Bashu and Shu counties, and then occupied Bashu and headed north from Dasan Pass.
The State of Chu and Nanyue sent troops at the same time, destroyed them together, and then the world was divided equally.
Obviously, Xiang Liang's intelligence work is too backward.
The three tribes of Zhao Qu Jing believed that at this time, they should strictly defend the Huaihe River barrier and sent a message to Nanyue to prepare in advance. They asked Nanyue to send a ship to the Yangtze River to prevent the Qin army from crossing the river and entering the hinterland of the south of the Yangtze River.
As long as the two natural barriers of the Yangtze River and the Huai River are protected, the Qin army, which now has no tower ship naval army, can only look at the capital of Chu on the other side of the river like in more than a month before, and sigh at the river.
.
In this way, the State of Chu would not have to worry that the Qin army would suddenly cross the river and kill to its own nest. It would only take several years to plunder the population of Chu in Jiangnan, and the State of Chu would inevitably increase its strength.
When the Qin army could not cross the river, Hu Hai would definitely choose to go south to Bashu, so the first thing he had to encounter was Nanyue.
Zhao Tuo is not an easy person. He was able to endure it until today before he suddenly launched it, and even brought Ziying from Xianyang to Nanyue. The most important thing is that Zhao Tuo was the general who promoted the world-dominated First Emperor and was able to be
The people that the First Emperor valued, and they were young people, were not talented and famous in the world?
Of course, the Qin Dynasty is not easy to mess with now. Then the collision between the Qin army and the South Vietnamese army will inevitably be a fierce battle against the wheat. When the Qin army and the hundreds of thousands of troops in the South Vietnam are in a defeat, the Chu State can take advantage of the situation.
Cross the river and head north and destroy the Qin Dynasty in one fell swoop.
Of course, there is another thing that Zhao Qu Jing and the other two did not say, that is, since they can destroy the Qin Dynasty in Guanzhong, can Nanyue, which lives in a corner, still survive?
The fisherman gains profit when fighting with the snipe and the clam!
Whenever they think about this, Zhaotong, Jinggong, Qu Ping and the other two couldn't help but want to laugh out loud.
The future is so beautiful.
Neither Fan Zeng nor Zhang Liang spoke about this debate. Whether it was Xiang Liang's quick battle plan or the dark-hearted method of the three major families of Zhao Qu Jing, they actually seemed good on the surface.
Relatively speaking, Fan Zeng prefers what Zhaotong, Jinggong and Qu Ping say, because he is also an extremely black-hearted person.
Zhang Liang, on the other hand, is more inclined to what Xiang Liang said.
Zhang Liang knew very well that whether it was Xiang Liang or Zhao Qu Jing tribes, all the assumptions made were based on wishful thinking. The most critical issue was that they did not understand the comparison of the strengths of both sides.
Even though Xiang Liang was using Jixia Academy, Zhang Liang knew that Xiang Liang's use of Jixia Academy was still at the most basic level of assassination and death warriors. However, Zhang Liang keenly grasped the original mystery.
The tactics that the soldiers of the Bird Camp once used were to go deep behind the enemy or approach the enemy, and constantly harass and disrupt the enemy's deployment.
The tactics adopted by the Qin army caused great trouble to Xiang Liang at the beginning, and in Zhang Liang's view, those soldiers were actually largely like the dead soldiers of the Jixia Academy. Because they were not afraid of death.
.
Obviously, it was the soldiers who were able to quickly grasp the movements of Xiang Liang's army.
From the bottom of my heart, Zhang Liang admired the Qin generals who had such tactics.
Zhang Liang was also very clear about why Xiang Liang proposed to act like this. Because the news from Jixia Academy, in addition to Hu Hai's two edicts to attack Nanyue, there were also frequent military mobilizations in Xianyang.
Whether the Qin army went north to Jiuyuan, west to Bashu or south to Jiujiang, rough information came from Jixia Academy.
It was precisely because of the huge pressure from the nearly one million Qin army that Xiang Liang made a plan to eat the 200,000 Qin army on the other side of the Huai River before the arrival of the Qin army.
Xiang Liang returned to Shouchun and vigorously trained soldiers while building weapons. After nearly two months, the effect was extremely significant. In addition to the Qin army's weapons with Ziying's help, it can be said that the combat power of the Chu army is now relatively high.
There was a qualitative leap two months ago.
Offense is the best defense.
Xiang Liang may not know this sentence, but as a commander, he has learned the essence.
The news that the Zhao Qu Jing tribes knew was only the news that Xiang Liang told them. Xiang Liang did not intend to tell them all the news that hundreds of thousands of Qin troops went south to fight against Chu, because the Chu State is not stable now.
As people's hearts are fluctuating, I'm afraid it's already chaos before the war.
Xiang Liang, Song Yi, Zhang Liang and others didn't speak, and the person who spoke was Fan Zeng. Although Fan Zeng was more inclined to the opinions of the Zhao, Qu, and Jing tribes, his lord was Xiang Liang.
Zhaotong, Jinggong, Qu Ping and others naturally could not speak. The person who spoke from the three tribes was Jinggong's younger brother Jingtong.
The two of them quoted the scriptures and had been arguing for half an hour.
The new King Huai of Chu, Xiong Xin, sat in the hall, looked bored and looked at the two people who were arguing behind him, and couldn't help but feel drowsy. Although he wanted to take all his power into his hands like his ancestors,
But he knew very well that he could only be a bystander now, and there were people who could match each other at critical moments.
So after feeling the look of Xiang Liang and Zhaotong looking at each other, Xiong Xin, who was originally drowsy, had no choice but to cheer up immediately.
He knew that it was time for the two to show themselves to end the argument.
