The strongest fortresses are often breached from within.
Although Xiang Liang does not know this sentence now, this is exactly what he was thinking at this time.
Xiang Liang didn't know the reason for the sudden invitation from the county governor, but it gave him another brilliant idea. This is also the reason why the Qin officials who used to be the county governor invited him to go later.
Xiang Liang is waiting for Xiang Yu to come back.
When talking about Xiang Yu, we have to say that he is a natural military wizard, but he is only good at commanding troops to fight.
Xiang Yu has shown a unique trait since he was a boy: he hates reading and loves military affairs. But Xiang Yu hates reading. He does not refuse it outright, but gives up immediately after trying it briefly.
As a direct descendant of the Xiang family, how could he not know how to read and write? Xiang Liang urged him to learn to read and write. Xiang Yu said: "To learn to read, as long as you can remember names, it is useless to learn more."
Xiang Liang urged him to learn swordsmanship, but Xiang Yu said: "A sword can be defeated by one person, and it has no strength, so I don't want to learn." Xiang Liang asked solemnly: "What kind of skills do you want to learn, my nephew?" Xiang Yu said, "Nephew.
If you want to learn, you will be the enemy of thousands of people!"
Xiang Liang was so surprised that he began to teach Xiang Yu how to practice military art books and various martial arts. Unexpectedly, Xiang Yu still had a brief taste of it. He read a few books and then threw them away. What he left behind was: "The art of war is deceitful. How can you defeat the enemy without using force?"
Soldier halberd!"
At this time, Xiang Liang understood that a person with such a temperament would not be able to learn any knowledge, and was destined to be a brave and powerful general. But fortunately, Xiang Liang thought that he had a good command of strategy. Wouldn't it be good to have Xiang Yu's bravery?
In desperation, Xiang Liang, who was proficient in weapons, secretly found a magical ironworker and used Xiang Yu's strength to create a weapon that was extremely rare at the time and was simply named "The Enemy of Ten Thousands".
There is no clear record of Xiang Yu's weapons in "Historical Records". This theory of "ten thousand enemies" has a clear logic. Xiang Yu must be holding a long weapon, and it must be like a majestic figure like Xiang Yu who is "powerful to conquer the mountains and the world is unparalleled"
, how can an ordinary long weapon satisfy him?
In the pre-Qin period, chariots were only used during the golden age of the Spring and Autumn Period. Chariot soldiers usually had two weapons: a long sword and a bow and arrow. By the Warring States period, especially at the end of the Warring States period, with the gradual decline of chariots, cavalry was in the ascendant, and knights were almost
Short weapons, that is, various swords, were all used.
But even the cavalry generals did not use long weapons at that time. The fundamental reason is that in the pre-Qin period, the saddles and stirrups, two of the most incredible things for cavalry, had not yet appeared. It was impossible to use long weapons to fight with the enemy.
?
Therefore, spears of more than two feet, such as Shige, are only used in infantry battles and cannot be used by knights.
In other words, as a cavalry general, Xiang Yu fought with unusually long weapons, which can be said to be unique in the late Qin Dynasty. Since then, long weapons used by cavalry generals have emerged one after another in history, and they should all be imitated by Xiang Yu.
The weapon Xiang Liang made for Xiang Yu was a large conjoined iron spear about two feet long. The spearhead was about one foot wide and three feet long. The tip was as sharp as an arrowhead. It was similar to the popular red tassel spear in later generations, but it was
It is much larger than a gun, like an extra large shovel, but much sharper than a shovel;
The spear body is not the wooden shaft of the heavy armored infantry spear of the Warring States Period, but an arm-thick piece of fine iron that is integrated with the spear head; the spear tail is also a short spear, about one foot long, resembling a special-shaped dagger.
This rare weapon weighs about 200 kilograms according to the Qin system. Ordinary people would find it difficult to carry it and walk, let alone dance it. Xiang Yu was the only one who was greatly surprised when he saw this weapon.
The iron spear danced so loudly that the wind howled, and he shouted loudly: "Divine weapon, divine weapon! We are truly the enemy of ten thousand people!"
Perhaps it was with such a magical weapon that Xiang Yu could become the invincible overlord praised by later generations. Unfortunately, this weapon eventually disappeared in the long river of history, and it cannot be seen by future generations. It must be said to be a pity.
The island where Xiang Yu trained his soldiers was in the rivers and lakes of Wuzhong in Jiangdong, not too far from the Xiang family's mansion. After receiving the news of Xiang Liang's summons, Xiang Yu hurriedly mounted his horse and ran back.
But this trip took almost an hour.
Xiang Liang was waiting anxiously for Xiang Yu. When he saw Xiang Yu, he didn't wait for him to take a breath and pulled Xiang Yu away without saying anything. The uncle and nephew were also very happy.
behind the car.
Along the way, Xiang Liang informed Xiang Yu of the news and plans he had received one by one, and planned all possible changes. Soon he arrived at the governor's mansion.
Xiang Liang is the county governor's guest, so most of the county governor's servants know each other. At this moment, the person waiting at the gate of the county governor's house was the housekeeper (housekeeper) of the county governor of Kuaiji. When he saw Xiang Liang, he quickly bowed and said: "
I’ve seen Duke Xiang. Your Majesty is waiting in the mansion. Please come, Duke Xiang!”
"Thank you!" Xiang Liang smiled and bowed to the old man, and was about to walk in. Xiang Yu, who was following Xiang Liang, quickly followed.
The governor's family saw that Xiang Yu was ** feet tall. Although he had a handsome face, Kong Wuli had a killing spirit. Worried that it would be disadvantageous to the governor, he quickly stopped him and said, "Wait a minute, this strong man. Your Majesty, I only see Mr. Xiang alone."
, please wait in the wing."
Xiang Yu's face suddenly darkened when he heard the elder's words, his eyes widened and he was ready to curse.
Seeing that Xiang Yu was about to get angry, Xiang Liang gently pulled Xiang Yu with his hand and said with a slight smile: "This is my son. I can just let him wait in the corridor. Liang can go in alone."
When the elder heard what Xiang Liang said, he looked at Xiang Yu with a murderous look on his face. He didn't dare to refute and thanked him quickly. Seeing that the elder no longer insisted, Xiang Liang took off his sword and handed it to Xiang Yu, who was bare-handed, and followed the elder into the hall.
.
Xiang Yu was waiting in the corridor outside the hall.
The county magistrate's elder took Xiang Liang through the hall and went directly into the magistrate's study, where the Kuaiji magistrate had been waiting for a long time.
Xiang Liang and the governor of Kuaiji met at the ceremony, and the guests and hosts took their seats. The governor of Kuaiji couldn't wait to tell the reason why he invited Xiang Liang.
It turned out that after Wu Rui married his daughter and started an army on April 16, the first year of the Second Emperor, the barbarians in the Baiyue Land heard that "Fan Jun" had raised an army against Qin, and they came to surrender one after another. In less than two days, Wu Rui had gathered 100,000 people.
The remaining barbarian soldiers.
In the pre-Qin period, Zhejiang and Guangdong were not economically developed areas like those of later generations. At that time, the Baiyue land was filled with miasma, poisonous insects were rampant, and the weather was hot and humid.
For the Chinese people who have always lived in the fertile soil of the Central Plains in the dry and cool climate, this is a typical barren land. Even by the height of the Tang Dynasty, the land of Baiyue had been fully integrated into China and had been greatly developed, but the same was true of Lingnan and other places.
It has always been considered a wilderness.
Therefore, in later history, when the imperial court punished criminal officials and prisoners, one sentence was often "exile to Lingnan". This shows that the Chinese people living in the Central Plains since ancient times have despised the land of Baiyue.
The Baiyue barbarians who have lived in the poor mountains and harsh waters of Baiyue since ancient times have long been fighting against the sky, the earth, and the miasma of poisonous insects. They are born to be natural warriors. Therefore, Wu Rui, who gathered an army of more than 100,000 barbarians, quickly launched an attack on all parts of Jiujiang.
They invaded and occupied, and together with Yingbu's troops, they went south, and their troops were directed at Zhang, Hengshan and other counties adjacent to Jiujiang.
