The enemy is the best partner.

The relationship between countries is also very simple to say.

Li Yuan believed that Ying Bu should understand this truth. He was neglected by Xiang Yu for a long time and was resentful in his heart. He would not miss this opportunity to attack Xiang Yu's lair.

Since Xiang Yu, you look down on me, then show your strength and let you see clearly who it is, helping you win the battle between Julu and Qin people. It is not those bullshit princes, but him - the tattoo artist Yingbu.

Chen Ping thoughtfully, and in terms of strategy and detailed planning, Chen Ping's ability is not to be questioned. Chen Ping made an indelible contribution to the reason why Li Yuan's power was able to quickly gain a foothold in Guanzhong.

From Yongqi to Guanzhong.

From occupying only one county to sweeping over the land of Guanzhong, it is not that no one wants to challenge Li Yuan's authority. Some wealthy families in Fengyi, Linxia and other places have also gathered some remaining soldiers to make a stick. As a result, before they can get things done, Chen Ping divided and dissolved them one by one.

However, Chen Ping also has shortcomings.

Among them, Chen Ping's vision is not broad enough in terms of overall measurement and coordination. Most of his focus is only on his own one-acre and three-point land. At most, it is to extend it and then pay attention to whether there are hostile forces around him. Chen Ping pays less attention to forces that are far away from his territory and are not threatening for the time being.

——.

Chen Ping was thinking about who was suitable for lobbyist, and Li Yuan didn't want to disturb his ideas, so he took the tassels on the table and ran towards Hongnongjian with several young doctors.

The strategy is excellent.

If the execution is not effective, it will also fail.

According to the strategy proposed by Han Xin, there are two key points to success. First, Han Xin's lure into the enemy was successful. The Chu army was angry and went out of the city to fight. Second, the water attack plan was successful. The Chu army was flooded by floods. These two conditions can be said to be indispensable, especially the second point. The requirements for terrain and landform are very high. Hongnong Jian is three miles long. Which section can be used as the location of the Saihu Lake needs to be carefully planned and investigated.

When Li Yuan arrived at Hongnongjian, he found that Jiang Yu had arrived first. Jiang Yu, who had been stationed in Hangu Pass for more than a month, was very familiar with the terrain here. After being taught by the enemy's sneak attack on the pass from a small road several times, the Qin army's defense of this pass was even tighter.

"Mr. Li. Look, this valley is facing the valley. If we can cut off the stream and build a dam, it will become a lake containing the stream in a few days. "Jiang Yu gestured excitedly. His eyes were bright as if he saw the scene of the Chu army being swallowed by the flood at the end of the valley.

Li Yuan swallowed dryly, and his heart was filled with a sudden change. The war was ruthless, either you die or I live. The plan to flood the seven armies is not without history. The recorded scenes of corpses everywhere.

"General Jiang, blocking the stream and building the embankment will be done by your team. You can arrange an ambush at the high hills in the valley. Once an enemy escapes, you can chase and annihilate it." Li Yuan said in a deep voice.

"No!" Jiang Yu replied loudly. Then he directed his troops to start carrying stones and eliminating weeds. These projects cannot be completed in one day or two days. The soft mountain soil has a very high requirement for the dike. Jiang Yu must always use large stones to fix the position in order to block the seepage area bit by bit.

——.

the next day.

As soon as Li Yuan got up, Chen Ping rushed over in a hurry.

"Mr. Li, when it comes to lobbying, is it appropriate to have one person?" Chen Ping quickly advised before he could stop breathing.

"I don't know who it is?" Li Yuan asked curiously. Lobbying is a technical job that relies entirely on words and courage. People who have no ability and courage dare not go to the unfamiliar forces alone to lobby. The current situation in Guandong is that the princes united to attack Qin. In the case of enemies everywhere, they are in danger and are in danger.

"Therefore, the Hou Zhaoping of Dongling, is now a kind of melon man in the Changshi Mansion. This person is smart and knowledgeable, and can take on this position." Chen Ping said.

"The chief thought that a person who is a melon can take this position?" Li Yuan was surprised. Chen Ping was not a person who was ignorant of importance. He was very cautious in recommending the candidates for the overall situation, and now, although the Zhao Ping recommended by Chen Ping once served as the Marquis of Dongling in Qin, his specific abilities are unknown.

Zhaoping.

This name is very strange. Compared with Li Shiqi and Lu Jialai, Qin State was a defeated side. Even if there were envoys wandering among the various armies, the final result was probably either retreating or surrendering. If it was not good, it would be as unlucky as Li Shiqi and became a leader for the princes to seek credit.

"Mr. Li, the wise men do not avoid relatives, summoned Ping to plant melons. When the melons ripen, the fragrance spreads to their neighbors and is praised by their neighbors. People who do not care about gains and losses and can deal with changes with an open-minded attitude are considered to be wise people." Chen Ping insisted. In terms of people's perspective, Chen Ping has full confidence in his own eyes.

"Okay, since the Chief Secretary recommends it, let Xulai Hangu see you. What matters can be disclosed and what needs to be kept confidential must be explained to him clearly. At the same time, Zhao Ping's family stayed in Xianyang, and all the expenses they used were collected by the treasury." Li Yuan nodded and ordered.

Know yourself and your enemy, and you will never be defeated in a hundred battles.

The real situation in Guanzhong is now completely unfamiliar to all the princes. Under Li Yuan's governance, the newly born Qin regime was like a phoenix, showing vitality in agriculture, military affairs, construction and other aspects. Although this vitality had just shown signs, as long as you persist, the national strength of Qin could be gradually restored.

——.

Zhao Ping rushed from Xianyang to Hangu two days later. The former Dongling Marquis of Qin, who was nearly 40 years old, had a strange face, waxy hair, deep eye sockets, and a skinny body, and a sick person. Not to mention anything like this, he probably didn't even need to check when passing through the city gate.

"Zhao Ping, if you can lobby Ying Bu to rebel against Chu this time, you will be a great contribution. I can ask the court to retain the title of Marquis of Dongling." Li Yuan's first words when he saw Zhao Ping, the lobbyist who was about to take office was very excited.

Zhao Ping was so excited not because he was able to make great contributions, but because of the inheritance of the title of Dongling Marquis, the rule of the Qin State by the Legalists, and Shang Yang's reforms, he passed through two talented prime ministers, Lu Buwei and Fan Sui, and then Han Fei and Li Si, two Legal disciples, formulated a number of systems for the development of Qin State.

The military title system is one of the fundamental systems of the Qin State and can be passed on to descendants, but it cannot last for three generations. Zhaoping's title of Marquis of Dongling was passed down by his ancestors, and by his generation, it has been three generations. From this level, it is the end of the title of Marquis of Dongling to Zhaoping's generation. His sons and grandchildren cannot enjoy the blessings brought by their ancestors.

This system of Qin effectively eliminated the phenomenon of only relying on the development of a generation, and then the descendants were dependent on their parents. If they persisted to the future generations, it was actually a kind of essence, which was much more powerful than the so-called "ritual, righteousness, benevolence, wisdom, and trust" blank checks in Confucianism.

Less gossip.

Zhao Ping embarked on the journey east with great excitement. Two Qin soldiers accompanied him, and their mission was to secretly protect Zhao Ping's safety.

——.

Luoyang.

This quiet little town has now become a large army camp.

On the edge of the Luo River, from time to time, Chu soldiers with red tassels were leading their horses to the river to wash. They unbuttoned their pants without any scruples and scattered a string of yellow turbidity in the clear river water.

shore.

Several women who came to wash their clothes looked hesitant, holding wet clothes in their hands, not knowing whether to advance or retreat. The clear river water in the past had been trampled by Chu soldiers and horses, and what made them even more embarrassed was that there were bold Chu soldiers in the river, revealing their ugly things under their crotch, and showing off their flaunts to the woman.

Located in a house on the banks of Luoshui.

King Shenyang of Henan was furious. When the major general of Xiangzhuang arrived, he took over his palace without hesitation, and even said that he was saying that he would take care of the residence for the overlord.

Xiang Yu was still far away in Pengcheng and Dongjun, so there was no hurry to keep a place for him. Xiangzhuang was obviously a fox and a tiger's power, occupying the property of Shenyang, a cheap prince. Perhaps in Xiangzhuang's eyes, Shenyang was just a dog raised by Xiang Yu. Since it was a dog, there would be no personal property. Everything about the dog was naturally owned by the owner.

"King, Major General Xiang called the manager of the mansion just now. According to Xiao's estimate, the wealth hidden in the house may not be saved." Luoyang Order Zhang Zhonggong ran in with a look of fear and reported to Shenyang.

"What, what is the difference between this and a robber? Is there any reason for it? No, I want to go to the overlord to sue him Xiangzhuang." Shen Yang cursed.

"Mr. Zhong Gong, you know me the best. All the wicked and heartless things in the mansion will die a good death." Shen Yang was so angry that he was panting, and he almost couldn't lift it up in one breath.

After the arrival of the Chu army, Shenyang would not have been betrayed by everyone.

But the people around him fled to the Chu people one by one. Now even the servants in the mansion have fled. At this time, only Zhang Zhonggong was still standing beside Shenyang.

Now, there is no one left, and the property that he had finally collected was looted by Xiangzhuang, which made Shenyang feel in pain.

"King, I guess it's just a lawsuit. I heard from the people in Pengcheng that the people in the Xiang family are very domineering." Zhang Zhonggong reminded in a low voice.

"Domphe, huh, I, Shenyang, aren't anyone who can bully me. Zhonggong, go and pass my orders and gather the team. I will fight Xiangzhuang to death." Shenyang was heartbroken and even showed his rare pride.
