Chapter 249 Crack
In Quyang City, Liu Kou was in charge.
Liu Kou was pressing a little girl under his crotch and slashing hard. While shaking her lower body madly, she slapped the little girl on the butt from time to time. The little girl would suddenly whisper a few times, and Liu Kou would be excited and thrust more vigorously, while she laughed proudly.
With the rapid footsteps, the general Chu Chun had already strode forward.
Liu Kouhun didn't care, and he stretched out his rough big hand to hold Xiaoniang's slender waist tightly. His thick and thick lower body was still in and out of Xiaoniang's body. Chu Chun glanced at Xiaoniang's plump snow, bowed and said, "General, Li Zuoche, Jin Xu were trapped in Xu County by Yingbu's army."
"Hmm?!" Liu Kou was shocked when he heard this, and then he shook his lower body hard, pushed the little girl under his crotch away, shook the words under his crotch again, covered the skirt of the robe, and said in a deep voice, "Chu Chun, what's going on?"
Chu Chun glanced at the little girl's white body again and replied, "That's right, Jin Xu and Li Zuoche found that a batch of military rations in the Huainan army passed by Xu County, and then they had the idea of intercepting military rations. Early yesterday morning, the two of them each brought 2,000 elite troops to Xu County to seize grains, but they were trapped in Xu County by Yingbu's army."
"These two idiots." Liu Kou said with a hatred, "It's so hard to get some food."
Chu Chun said: "General, should we send troops to meet these two idiots?"
"Aren't you talking nonsense?" Liu Kou glared at Chu Chun and said angrily, "If it weren't for these two idiots, why would I mobilize a large army in Daliang Kingdom? Why should I come to Jiujiang?" After saying this, Liu Kou said again. "In this way, I will personally raise the army to Xu County to pick up the response. You will lead our troops to stay in Quyang."
"Here!" Chu Chun answered with a loud bang and took the order.
Hefei, Xiangzhuang Headquarters.
As soon as Liu Kou led the Liang army out of the Lingcheng City, the Chu army's fast horse arrived in Hefei.
After Baili Xian and Wu She circulated the secret letter, Xiang Zhuang said: "Two, what do you think about this?"
Bailixian shook the feather fan and pondered, "This matter does not seem to be a fraud. Moreover, since Yingbu attacked Xue County, Donghai and Si Shui County, the relationship with Liang Wang Peng Yue has been very delicate. It is probably not realistic to join forces to plot against our Great Chu. I think the conflict between the Liang army and the Huainan army should be true."
"It's good." Wu She said, "Our army took advantage of the situation and seized the tomb!"
Xiang Zhuang pondered silently, saying that it is indeed a good opportunity to seize the yīnling now, and even Quyang, Dongcheng, and Zhongli counties can take advantage of the situation. In this way, the forces of Liang army, Jin Xu and Li Zuoche can be completely expelled from Jiujiang County. But in this way, Liang Wang Peng Yue may not be willing to give up, and he might go all out with the Liang Kingdom.
At this time, the State of Chu had just fought a big battle. Although it won, its own consumption was not small. Needless to mention the consumption of veterans, it could not be replenished in a short period of time, and the supply of food and grass was also a big problem. In the previous battle, it had basically consumed the money and food in the national treasury. At present, there was really no spare energy to start a full war with Liang State.
Moreover, even if the Chu State tried its best to defeat Liang State, Jiujiang County might not be able to belong to Chu State.
You should know that Ying Bu is eyeing him, and he will miss such a good opportunity? If Chu fights with Huainan again, it will be a powerful military force. Even if he wins Chu in the end, he will definitely be full of holes. In this way, Liu Bang's strategic intention of competing for food will be fully realized.
Baili Xian said: "What the doctor said is indeed reasonable. Now it is indeed a great opportunity to seize the counties of yīnling. However, I think it is harmful and useless to attack the counties of yīnling at this time. Liu Kou will probably return to Jiujiang to fight our army in a decisive battle. If Liu Kou is defeated, it will definitely attract Peng Yue's army and Chu and Liang are fighting each other. Wouldn't it be exactly what Liu Bang wants?"
Wu Shedao: "But the problem of Jiujiang County needs to be solved after all. Our army can't continue to confront Liang army, right?"
"Yes, the problem of Jiujiang County needs to be solved after all." Bailixian nodded and said, "However, if you want to solve the problem of Jiujiang County, fighting is not necessarily the best way."
Xiang Zhuang nodded silently, Jiujiang could not be defeated, but this did not mean that the Chu army must fight with Liang army.
Wu She also became interested when she heard this and asked: "Oh, the military advisor said that if you don't fight, you can solve the problem of Jiujiang County?"
Bailixian shook his feather fan gently and said, "If you want to solve the problem of Jiujiang County without fighting, the key is to figure out three problems. First, what do I want to get from Da Chu? Second, what do Liang State want to get from Jiujiang? Finally, what are the benefits of Huainan King Yingbu?
Wu She said without hesitation: "What I want from Da Chu is of course the entire Jiujiang County, because Jiujiang County was originally one of the nine counties of the former Chu. As for Liang State, they may not want to seek Jiujiang County. Peng Yue was mostly for Jin Xi, Li Zuoche, and Ying Bu, just wanted to make profits from it."
Li Xian nodded and said, "This is the crux of the problem. My Great Chu, Liang State and Huainan State all want to seek benefits from Jiujiang County. My Great Chu is seeking the entire Jiujiang County. Liang State seeks two soldiers, Jin Xi and Li Zuoche, while Huainan State seeks the benefits of fishermen. If we know the crux, we can prescribe the right medicine."
Wu She nodded thoughtfully and said, "I dare to ask the military advisor, how can I prescribe the right medicine?"
Baili Xian said: "Let me talk about Huainan Kingdom first. Ying Bu actually has no clear goal. He just saw that my Great Chu may have a conflict with Liang Kingdom and wanted to make profits. If my Great Chu and Liang Kingdom cannot fight, Ying Bu will be unprofitable. In this way, he will give up his unrealistic fantasy and choose to form an alliance with my Great Chu again."
This is a fact. Before the Liang army sent troops to Jiujiang, Ying Bu's envoys had even arrived in Wuzhong. If it weren't for this incident, Huainan would have formed an alliance with Chu. Then, now, if Chu and Liang had negotiated peace, Ying Bu would probably have returned to the original path and chose to form an alliance with Chu.
If the State of Chu wants a stable external environment, isn’t it the same in Huainan?
Wu Sheshen nodded with consent and said, "Then, how should we settle the Liang Kingdom?"
Baili Xian said: "The best way to settle the Liang Kingdom is to talk openly and honestly with Liu Kou. However, this is basically impossible, because Liu Kou does not trust the king at all, but now there is an excellent opportunity. The king can fully express his intentions to Liu Kou and Ying Bu in person, and they have no choice but to disbelief."
Xiang Zhuang picked up the beard with a curled beard and said, "Ziliang, what do you mean..."
Baili Xian nodded gently and said, "The King Mingjian, if you want to break the three tigers fighting for food set up by Liu Bang, and to resolve the disputes in Jiujiang County, this is probably the only opportunity!"
Xu County is a small county at the junction of Sishui County and Donghai County. In fact, before the Qin Empire, Xu Yi did not establish a county. It was not until the Western Chu State that Xiang established Xu Yi alone. Xu County was originally just a county with a population of less than 30,000, but now, it has suddenly become the center of the storm that affects the world's situation.
Five days ago, Fei Zhu, a general under the tent of King Yingbu of Huainan, escorted 8,000 stones of military rations through Xu County, but was intercepted by Jin Xu and Li Zuoche's coalition forces. Fortunately, Fei Zhu reacted quickly and transported 5,000 stones of military rations into the county town in time. Otherwise, he would be afraid that even the only 5,000 stones of military rations would be stolen by Jin Xu and Li Zuoche.
Yingbu's army arrived immediately and surrounded Jin Xu and Li Zuoche in Xushan outside Xu County.
Three days ago, General Liu Kou of Liang State led 20,000 elite troops from Liang army, and more than 20,000 people from Li Zuoche arrived outside Xu County. When Ying Bu heard the news, he quickly transferred a large army from Xuyi, and then the two armies fell into a confrontation near Xu County. Although the situation was about to break out, Ying Bu and Liu Kou did not start a rashly war.
The outskirts of Xu County, Huainan Army Camp.
Kuai Che was trying hard to persuade Yingbu: "King, hurry up and withdraw the siege of Xushan, let Jin Xu go, Li Zuoche, otherwise, our Huainan Kingdom will have to fight with Liang Kingdom first!"
"But Jin Xi and Li Zuoche and others burned me three thousand stones of military rations and injured hundreds of soldiers. Just let them go, how can I swallow this?" Ying Bu also knew that what Kuai Che said was reasonable. Huainan Kingdom sent troops this time to get a bargain, not to fight with Liang or Chu. However, Jin Xi and Li Zuoche's offense made Ying Bu feel a little embarrassed.
Jin Xu and Li Zuoche burned more than 3,000 stone rations of Huainan army and killed more than 800 Huainan soldiers. If Ying Bu let them go like this, once the news spread, wouldn’t the heroes in the world laugh at him for Ying Bu’s fear of Peng Yue’s military? Moreover, Ying Bu’s actions may also swell the morale and morale of the Huainan soldiers.
Kuai Che sighed and said earnestly: "Master, if you can't bear it, you will be in trouble."
Yingbu was silent and told him rationally that he should accept Kuai Che's suggestions, but emotionally, Yingbu really couldn't accept such a reality. Who is Yingbu? Looking at the world, besides Liu Bang, Han Xin and Peng Yue, Yingbu is really not as serious as others, Xiang Zhuang is still lacking in weight. Jin Xu and Li Zuoche are? How dare you make ground on him?
When Kuai Che wanted to persuade him again, Li Ji, the personal military officer, suddenly stepped forward and bowed to Yingbu and reported to him: "King, please report to the horse. King Xiang Zhuang of Chu personally led 20,000 cavalry into the territory of Xu County. The vanguard was less than fifty miles away from Xuyi. Before dusk, the Chu army would definitely be able to reach the city of Xuyi."
"Well, Xiang Zhuang?!" Ying Bu changed furiously when he heard this.
