Chapter 21 Xianyang Disturbance (Part 1)
The assassination of the Chinese army was actually just a small episode. With Xiang Yu's force, the assassin could not get close at all. But how did the assassin get close to the Chinese army? This is a bit intriguing.
Since the sudden assassination, Xiang Yu ordered Zhao Jun and Yan Jun to serve as the vanguard and march towards Xianyang, while the rest of the troops prepared one after another to move out of the stronghold.
For Xiang Yu, who has always been known for his bravery, the first thing he thought of was Liu Bang. He believed that Liu Bang would be the mastermind behind his assassination. This damned reckless man escaped from his hands at the Hongmen Banquet, but used such a humble means.
Means to harm oneself.
But the night before Xiang Yu was about to leave, Chen Ping suddenly came to Xiang Yu's tent and told Xiang Yu that there might be someone else behind the assassin.
This view was beyond Xiang Yu's expectation. He initially suspected that Chen Ping was bribed by Liu Bang, but after listening carefully to Chen Ping's remarks, Xiang Yu couldn't help but secretly nod.
Liu Bang, who had just escaped from the Hongmen Banquet, was no longer able to fight against Xiang Yu, so why would he secretly send assassins again to cause conflict? Then who could this person be?
Immediately, Xiang Yu invited Fan Zeng and informed Fan Zeng of the matter. Fan Zeng was also troubled by this matter. He sent people to investigate and learned that the assassin fled towards Lishan Mountain, was chased by Xiangzhuang's scouts, and fled all the way to Qinling Mountains.
, and Xiang Zhuang also led his army in hot pursuit that day, and has not returned yet. All kinds of mysteries are puzzling.
Although scouts were widely deployed, there was still no news. Even after Xiang Zhuang entered the mountains, he could not find him. Xiang Yu had no choice but to put it aside for the time being. On the third day after Zhao Jun set off, he hurriedly led his army westward towards Xianyang.
.
The Chinese army numbered more than 100,000 people. The team was mighty and meandering forward. A tall flag fluttered in the wind behind Xiang Yu, and the sound of bugles sounded intermittently to remind the passing people to avoid the Chu army.
At this time, the coalition forces from various countries have arrived south of Xianyang one after another, but Xiang Yu's central army has not yet arrived. No one from the coalition forces dared to step into Xianyang first. However, Liu Bang's army guarding Xianyang was already frightened by the news and fled in a hurry, leaving only
The next empty city.
At this time, Xiang Yu's army marched to the foot of Li Mountain. Looking at the vast Li Mountain, Xiang Yu narrowed his eyes. Above was the tomb of the First Emperor Ying Zheng. Xiang Yu would not let this old guy fall here so peacefully.
The team walked some distance, and a hurried shout from Long Qie sounded from behind the team: "General, wait a minute!"
When Xiang Yu heard Long Qie's shout, he frowned slightly, stopped Wu Zui, turned around and saw that Long Qie had galloped towards him, and he raised his hands on the horse and said: "General, I have urgent military affairs to report to you!
"
Seeing Long Qie in such a hurry, Xiang Yu had a bad thought in his heart. He hurriedly pointed at Long Qie and shouted: "What's the matter? Tell me quickly!"
"General Xiangzhuang's 50,000 troops did not advance westward."
"How is it possible? Isn't he not in the army? Who is so bold as to refuse my order?" Xiang Yu was furious. At this time, Yu Ziqi came to the side on horseback and said softly: "I got one yesterday.
According to the news, Yingbu left in a hurry on his horse last night, heading east, probably to the military camp in Xiangzhuang."
The words between the two of them became more and more mysterious, and Xiang Yu said angrily: "That doesn't make sense!"
Just when he was about to order someone to call Ying Bu, Long Qie hurriedly stopped him and said, "General, you don't have to go find Ying Bu. Ying Bu is not in the army. I have ordered people to inquire secretly. I heard that it was Wu Rui who went north. He has already rushed to the north."
When we arrived at the army, most of the generals in the army were direct descendants of the Poyang army, and with the loyalty of Mei Rong and Ying Bu, it is estimated that General Xiangzhuang, except for his own 17,000 soldiers and horses, was under control."
"Common man, do you want to fight me at this time?" Xiang Yu was furious and turned around and ordered: "Send the order, the army turns around and follow me back to the theater!"
"The army stops..."
"The army stops!"
The order was conveyed one after another. At this time, the army began to stop advancing. Chen Ping, who had been following him, and Fan Zeng, who was patrolling the army, hurried over. They didn't know why. When they saw Xiang Yu, they were furious and asked hurriedly: "Why is the general like this?"
?”
"Wu Ruipifu has secretly controlled nearly 40,000 Poyang troops. I want to mobilize troops to defeat him!" Xiang Yu was furious. Fan Zeng hurriedly grabbed Xiang Yu's clothes and said in surprise: "Why is the general so unwise?
?”
"Am I unwise?" Xiang Yubao's eyes widened and he said angrily, "Why did Yafu say this?"
Fan Zeng looked at everyone and reminded in a low voice: "The Poyang Army was originally Wu Rui's subordinate. He transferred his subordinates back. It is natural. Does the General have a reason to attack others? Besides, didn't the General say it last time?
I want to transfer this force to General Xiangzhuang. If once the war breaks out, it will be a big deal. General, please listen to me and make a long-term plan!"
"Alas..." Xiang Yu was reminded by Fan Zeng and had to sigh. Fan Zeng said again: "We will enter Xianyang first, and then recruit him into the city. After entering the city, everything will be slowed down. Besides, General Xiang Zhuang is still in Qinling at this time, waiting for him to come back.
It’s not too late to make further calculations.”
After being advised by Fan Zeng, Xiang Yu could only nod his head and said: "Okay, march to Xianyang!"
…
Xiang Yu issued an order to advance quickly. At noon, when the sun was high, the Chu army arrived at the foot of Xianyang City. More than 100,000 allied troops were deployed around Xianyang City. Xiang Yu was sitting in the chariot with his right hand
Holding the sword, Xiang Yu looked forward with cold eyes. After a long time, Xiang Yu waved the sword in his hand: "Enter the city!"
"Dong dong dong" the rumbling war drums began to beat, the low horns whimpered in the air, and the Chu army and the coalition army began to enter the city one after another.
At first, the various troops were relatively orderly, but as Xiang Yu's car entered the city, the coalition forces from various countries began to lose control. They crowded into Xianyang City, and some soldiers began to disperse to nearby villages and Fengyi to rob.
People's wealth, rape//whore women, burning, killing, looting, and all kinds of evil.
Xiang Yu was still maintaining order at first, but as the coalition forces lost control, Xiang Yu became powerless. He led his generals to the vast Xianyang Palace.
All the treasuries and warehouses along the way were blocked by the Chu army. The cloth, gold and silver in some good shops were confiscated, all the notices posted by Liu Bang were invalid, and the allied army's conscription order was posted on the wall.
Soon, Xiang Yu came to Xianyang Palace with the mighty troops of the Chu army. A subordinate general led several soldiers to greet them in a hurry: "General, we have searched it. There is no problem in Xianyang Palace. There are many women and treasures sealed in the palace."
It is true that Liu Bang did not take away the finances."
Hearing that there was a beautiful woman in the palace, Xiang Yu couldn't help but laugh and said: "I have ordered the three armies to set up camp in Xianyang City. Allied forces from various countries will station themselves around Xianyang. I ordered Huan Chu, Zhong Limei and others to lead their troops to station on the south bank of the Weihe River and do not make any mistakes."
Everyone sang their vows, and Xiang Yu walked towards the palace with a big smile.
…
To the west of Hongmen, at the outskirts of Xi'an, Xiang Zhuang's army was stationed here. The army that was supposed to be commanded by Xiang Zhuang, after Wu Rui arrived, the military power once again fell into Wu Rui's hands.
In the camp, Wu Rui was quietly sipping tea. In front of him was a flat map. On the map, above the Qinling Mountains, there was a circle marked with a red brush. Xiang Zhuang was trapped in
here.
It can be said that this is a conspiracy, a conspiracy created by Wu Rui. Wu Rui, who thought he would die when he returned to Poyang, gradually improved after half a month of recuperation.
What kind of status the Wu family will have in the future is what Wu Rui is most worried about. The eldest son-in-law Qingbu is from the army, so he can't count on him, but the second daughter Wu Fang has taken a fancy to Xiang Zhuang. This may be because
A marriage was destined by God, but Wu Rui knew that it would not be easy to facilitate this marriage. Therefore, he made such an accident and regained military power as a bargaining chip.
Of course, Fan Zeng is not a fool, and neither is Xiang Zhuang. This kind of trick can only be hidden for a while, but not forever.
After careful consideration, Wu Rui finally made up his mind that he had to do this. On the one hand, his position in the Xiang family must be consolidated. Although there was a marriage with Xiang You, Xiang Bo's position in the Xiang family could not be flattered.
During the time of Xiang Liang, Wu Rui did not dare to hope for this marriage. Only Xiang Zhuang, who had great power and courage, was Wu Rui's first choice.
Next to Wu Rui, Wu Fang kept pouting. She was very dissatisfied with her father's move, but she could not change her father's decision. In anger, she could only choose to ignore her father.
The father and daughter were in a stalemate like this, but Wu Rui knew that Wu Fang was just acting like a child. As long as she could promote this marriage, would she still ignore him?
In pride, Wu Rui raised his head and laughed. Suddenly, the curtain opened, and Qingbu quickly walked into the tent. He cupped his hands beside Wu Rui and said, "Yue Zhang, I have found out that Xiang Yu's army has entered the city."
"Haha, it's just as I expected." Wu Rui sneered and said, "What's going on in Xianyang City right now?"
"It's very chaotic. All the police units are burning, killing and looting. There are corpses, gunpowder smoke and crying everywhere."
"This is what I expected." Wu Rui nodded and asked, "Where is Xiangzhuang? Have you ever left the mountain?"
"No news yet." Ting Bu replied. This time, Wu Rui was silent. He stopped asking. After thinking for a moment, he looked at Mei Rong aside and ordered: "Bring me Kong Ji!"
Mei Yi nodded and left. Soon, Mei Yi led Kong Ji into the tent quickly. Seeing Kong Ji's angry face, Wu Rui couldn't help but stepped forward and said with a smile: "Kong Changshi, why are you so depressed?"
"Master Wu, what do you want to do by taking advantage of my general's absence to consolidate military power?"
"Kong Changshi misunderstood. I just want to return to Poyang's military power. I have no intention of seizing power. You..."
"But even so, you shouldn't control my general's army?" Kong Ji became even more angry. He interrupted Wu Rui's words. Seeing Kong Ji's behavior, Wu Rui could only laugh and said: "Okay, I'll do it right now.
Let you lead the troops and leave, you can decide for yourself where to go!"
Seeing that Wu Rui was suddenly willing to let go of himself and more than 10,000 troops under Xiang Zhuang's command, Kong Ji was overjoyed and asked hurriedly: "Seriously?"
"Seriously, I can also tell you that your general is on the line of Qinling Mountains. You should go quickly!" After a pause, Wu Rui said again: "I will rush to Xianyang soon. You tell Xiangzhuang, my nephew, I
Wait for him in Xianyang."
"Hahaha..." After Wu Rui laughed, he waved his hand outside the tent, indicating that Kong Ji could leave. Before Kong Ji left, he glanced at Wu Fang and saw that she was also staring at him. Kong Ji just snorted.
With a cry, he left angrily.

ps: This morning, I logged into the browser with my mobile phone and found that classmate Xiao Wu threw me a chapter and classmate Xiao a threw me flowers, as well as comments from classmate Xiaojian and comments from classmate Xiao Wu, although they were only a few words.
However, I can see everyone's expectations for this book. Indeed, when I made the decision to update the book, I did not consider everyone's feelings. I was too selfish. I apologize to everyone for this.
In addition, I have decided to save some manuscripts after I come back in a few days. I promise you that next month, I will resume updating, at least two updates, and occasionally three updates. If not, I will chop it up myself!
Please forgive me for being selfish. I will update it properly. Regardless of whether I am paid or not, I will do my best to write this book. In addition, I originally planned to continue writing history in my next book and open a book about the Three Kingdoms, but many people
I have been advised to write about a different world continent. I have also considered making an outline of a different world continent. I am very confused. If my friends are willing to give me a favor and make a decision for me, is it better to write history or a different world continent? I look forward to your answers...
