From Hanzhong County through the natural Kamishui Valley Road, the Bajiang Valley Road can reach Shu. The road passes through Micang Mountain, so it is called Micang Road. Before the Jinniu Road was excavated, Micang Road was the first important road out of Shu.

Liu Bang and three others rowed north to the Bajiang River and traveled hundreds of miles eastward by land. At dawn, the tired three men finally arrived at the intersection of Micang Road.

Liu Bang looked at the large camps that were built along the way, and some did not dare to move because he saw a tall and burly man wielding a strange weapon.

"That guy Guo Meng started with Lu Ze from Xue County, why didn't you bring him with you this time?" Liu Bang clasped his hands, tilted his head and frowned.

"Didn't the king say that Lu Pheasant secretly wanted to borrow Micang Dao soldiers? Maybe Guo Meng is here just to keep some soldiers." Wang Suikai explained.

"Yes." Liu Bang nodded slightly, "I want to see which commander still cares about this Pei Gong."

The three of them nodded and headed straight for Guo Meng in the distance.

From a distance, I saw Guo Meng put down his strange weapon and took a drink from the pottery bowl handed to him by the Bashu soldiers.

"Damn it, I've traveled hundreds of miles, and he's here to enjoy it." Liu Bang cursed secretly, and his pace quickened a lot.

Guo Meng wiped his mouth and looked sideways at the three people hunched over, pretending to hold up their hands.

"Your Majesty, Guo Meng, has met with you."

Seeing that Guo Meng was still polite, Liu Bang was completely relieved.

"I am very thirsty. Commander Guo, please bring me a bowl of water." Liu Bang said unceremoniously.

"Is the water I drank the tea from Micang Road?" Guo Meng replied.

"Te?" Liu Bang was slightly displeased, "You still have such leisure in a war?!"

"The fragrance of Mi Cang Road is long-lasting and refreshing, you must taste it." Guo Meng said with a smile, "Marquis Zhou Lu also said that the Qin army will not attack Mi Cang Road in a large scale, but it is just a feint attack, so don't worry."

Lu Ze's name was extremely harsh, and Liu Bang had a big plan in mind and didn't bother to care whether Guo Meng had violated military discipline.

Wang Hui glanced at the weapon beside Guo Peng, "I wonder what this is? It looks like an ax but not an axe, and looks like a halberd but not a halberd."

"This is the halberd used by Bashu in the past." Guo Meng picked up the halberd and played with it in his hand. "This object can be used to defend against enemies and can also dig out rocks. Among Bashu, it is much stronger than the long halberd."

Liu Bang looked at the halberd quietly, with a hint of longing in his eyes.

"How many more of these are there in the army?" Liu Bang asked anxiously.

"No more, no less, exactly... ten thousand." Guo Meng looked directly at Liu Bang and said.

"It will take more than 10,000 people to capture Xianyang City." Is this Liu Bang's trick?

"But if Ziying cannot return to Qin, ten thousand people will be enough." Guo Meng said with a smile, "rush out from that road, then occupy Yongdi to the west, block the Tangluo, and praise the two roads. This matter

That’s it.”

That bitch really knows the plan.

Liu Bang's heart twitched, and he suddenly laughed and said, "I wonder if Commander Guo is willing to work with me to achieve great things? Capture Yongdi and then march eastward to Xianyang in the future. Such great achievements will certainly earn him the title of Marquis!"

"Although the Qin army is feigning an attack, if I don't defend, the feint attack will become a real attack. How can I leave easily?" Guo Meng declined politely, "Your Majesty, you should ask other commanders, maybe they are eager to make achievements."

Liu Bang knew full well that there was a deceit in this, and Lu Pheasant knew about this plan and had a large number of troops. He should have taken a step earlier, and it was not his turn to take action.

The generals on Micang Road are all Lu Ze's people. Even if they go with him, they are probably taking advantage of him. If this happens, I am afraid that before he can replace Ziying, the generals will kill him first and claim credit later.

.

"Hahaha... I just said it casually. The generals all have important matters to attend to, so it will be fine if I serve as the commander-in-chief and conduct the expedition personally." Liu Bang said with a smile, this time he planned not to take any of the commanders with him.

"Isn't this not good?" Guo Meng said slightly threateningly, "Commander Fu has been looking forward to fighting together with the king, but I don't know when the next time will be."

"Fu Kuan?"

Liu Bang couldn't hide his disgust on his face. Although Fu Kuan had military exploits, they were not great. He defeated Yang Xiong's army in Qu and beheaded twelve people. At that time, Fan Kuai alone beheaded ninety-five people, and behind him, Jin She beheaded one hundred and three.

ten.

Fu Kuan was also considered a rebellious minister. He was originally a cavalry commander with the title of the fifth official of Wei State. Instead of following Wei Wang Bao, he followed Liu Bang.

"If you can betray Wei, you can betray me!"

Liu Bang cursed secretly in his heart, but there was a smile on his face, "This trip is very dangerous, so I won't bother Fu Aiqing. Commander Guo will hand over the grain, grass and halberd to me, and the big thing is to quickly go north to attack Chu."

"Well... I have to think about the safety of the king, right?" Guo Meng stroked his beard and said with a smile, "I don't know where the king's strange road is, but it must pass through Hanzhong County. If Ziying set up a trap in Hanzhong

If there is an ambush, the king's situation will be dangerous."

Wang Hui and Jin She suddenly had gloomy faces.

"I have never seen such a cunning boy in the past, and I don't know who he learned this from!" Wang Hui scolded.

"Who else could it be besides Lu Ze?" Jin She replied coldly.

Guo Meng didn't care at all when he heard the two people's discussion, "It's useless to talk more. You'd better choose a few generals to go with you, so as not to embarrass me."

Liu Bang knew it was surveillance, but he had no choice. He thought for a long time and said with a smile, "There is nothing wrong with bringing Fu Aiqing, but I still need to bring... Commander Jin Qiang."

Guo Meng hesitated for a long while and nodded slowly.

Liu Bang knew that Jin Qiang was loyal to him, but when Ba went to the banquet, he also stood up for Lu Pheasant. Lu Pheasant mistakenly thought that Jin Qiang was interested in her, and Liu Bang took advantage of this.

Not long after, long-faced Fu Kuan and Jin Qiang put on armor and raised their hands in front of Liu Bang.

"Your Majesty has important things to do, so I'd like to trouble you two commanders to follow you." Guo Meng said with a slight sneer.

"I am determined to protect the king Zhou Quan!" Jin Qiang replied decisively.

"I should do the same~" Fu Kuan agreed nonchalantly.

In his early years, Liu Bang had become accustomed to the cynicism and ridicule of his neighbors and villagers for his lack of knowledge and skills. Now, facing the betrayal of his subordinates, he felt really uncomfortable.

The scene of Yong Chi and Zhou Shi standing on top of Fengyi City, mocking him condescendingly, reappeared before their eyes.

"Wei people, Wei people again!" Liu Bang clenched his fists and made up his mind, "If I have a chance, I will humiliate Wei people a hundred times!"

"If your Majesty has nothing else to do, please go on your way." Guo Meng said with a smile, "I have selected 10,000 soldiers for your Majesty."

Guo Meng waved his finger, and 10,000 slightly shorter Bashu soldiers in red, holding halberds, lined up in the distance, looking at Liu Bang coldly.

"Haha... Commander Guo is really thoughtful. These ten thousand soldiers seem to be new to the military camp, right?" Liu Bangqiang said with a smile.

Guo Meng shook his head and chuckled, "Recruits are more energetic. If the king can achieve great things with his recruits, he will be respected by everyone in the world."

"Okay...very good! I'm on my way now!"

Liu Bang put on a stiff smile and led Wang Sui and four others to the front of Wanjun.

"My officers and men, today I will go north together with you, take over Ziying's lair, and occupy the Longxing land of Qin! One day I will divide the territory and tear up the land, and I will reward you all generously!"

Liu Bang imitated the tactics of the Mangdang Mountains when he fought with his troops, and he remained calm in front of ten thousand soldiers.

"Well, if you officers and men do not want to live outside Bashu, I can also reward you with money, and you will return to your hometown in glory one day! Let the villagers take a good look at it."

Liu Bang continued to fight, but the soldiers remained expressionless and did not take his king seriously at all.

"It's not long since the king came to Bashu. How come he doesn't even know what the soldiers of Bashu like?" Guo Meng on the side joked.

Liu Bang was a little embarrassed and looked at Wang Hui, "What do they like?"

"them..."

"My fellow soldiers, the land of Qin has the best honey, and the fresh fruits produced are sweet and delicious. After capturing Xianyang, I will command a large reward to the three armies." Fu Kuan walked up to Liu Bang and said loudly.

The eyes of the ten thousand soldiers suddenly lit up,

"Invade Qin and capture Xianyang!"

"Commander, raise your troops quickly!"

Liu Bang smiled bitterly, "It turns out to be delicious and sweet..."

"These people are really easy to deceive." Wang Hui sneered, "The three kingdoms of Bashu, Linjiang, Hengshan and Baiyue are rich in sweet fruits. What good things can be found in Qin?"

"In my opinion, the so-called Gan Guo is just a cover. Guo Meng and Fu Kuan just want to embarrass the king." Jin She whispered.

"I really want Gong Ao to kill that bitch, and Lu Ze will also die in Linjiang. Let's see who they will wag their tails at then!" Liu Bang cursed.

People who are good at buying people's hearts hate and fear the most when there are others who are better at buying people's hearts than they are.

Lu Ze is the person who scares Liu Bang.

Fu Kuan suddenly turned around and faced the three of them. The three of them shut up as if they had not said anything.

"Hmm... Now that the army is ready to fight, let's set off now." Liu Bang said.

"That's fine." Fu Kuan nodded, "According to the command of our commander, the army will march westward to Jucheng!"

Fu Kuan carried the halberd on his shoulder and walked to the front of the formation with his head held high. The four Liu Bangs followed Fu Kuan silently like followers, feeling extremely lonely.

"Your Majesty? When did Your Majesty leave Fuling?!"

Everyone was startled and turned around to see Kong Xuan, with a colorful face on his face, galloping over on a yellow horse.

"Commander Kong?" Liu Bang looked back at Kong Min, his throat a little sore with excitement.

"Your Majesty, Kong Min, see you!" Kong Fu jumped off his horse and knelt down in front of Liu Bang.

"My dear, please get up." Liu Bang helped Kong Min up with slightly trembling arms.

"Kong Min?" Fu Kuan frowned and said, "If you are not stationed at Jinniu Road, what are you doing here?"
