Chapter Thirty-Five The Storm

The fleet of Li Yuan is anchored in southwest of Xingyang, Pingyin and Li Yuan.

The heavy snow also forced Li Yuan to stop moving forward. How to enter Xingyang City smoothly and contact Hou Xi, Guan Yue and others became the key to whether Li Yuan's trip was successful.

Before the Battle of White Horse broke out, a letter was sent to Li Yuan. According to the letter, Guan Yue, Hou Xi, Hu Zhuang and others, as well as the people retreating in Daliang, were all placed in the Dongcheng area by Zhao Ben. Zhao Ben was very alert and sent soldiers from a village to take strict supervision on them.

Regarding Hou Xi and Guan Yue's dilemma, Li Yuan was in a fight that he was about to be unable to provide help, but he didn't know what their situation was now?

"Entering the city! It seems that you can only go to the water gate, but how can you avoid the enemy outside the city and let the guards open the city gate? Once you enter the city, where can you go?"

Li Yuan opened the map of Sanchuan County and pondered his head and thought about the power situation in Xingyang City. He asked Yang Xiong and Sima Yin to analyze it one by one. It made sense at that time, including who could contact, where to raise soldiers to hide, etc. However, when Xingyang was right in front of him, Li Yuan discovered that his previous plans were some unrealistic fantasies on paper.

To enter the city, first of all, there must be a tiger talisman order, and secondly, the generals and school guarding the city should not be suspicious. Secondly, it is necessary to avoid Liu Bang's army on land.

There was a piece of tiger talisman, but Li Yuan had a piece of it. It was found from the Qin army's tower ship captain who was captured by friendly forces. Li Yuan had no way to defend the city. For him, Xingyang was completely a strange city and could not be unfamiliar.

"Did, what's the best thing about a broken map? If you want to enter the city, just ask your aunt!" Gu Yun felt resentful in his heart, because Li Yuan had been in a daze these days, either staring at the map, and had no intention of talking to her. This made her feel unhappy, holding her with knowledge and a lot of tricks.

Gu Yun has the kind of slim appearance but actually has a hot and lively temperament. If it weren't for this temper, she wouldn't have turned against Zhao Ben on the spot.

This made her feel a little restless when facing Li Yuan.

"Captain, I know the general guarding the water camp in Xingyang. Maybe I can get into the city to serve as an insider!" Gu Yun blushed and finally couldn't help it. Although Aunt Gongsun said that she would act according to the opportunity and not reveal her identity, Li Yuan, a fool, was so angry.

From the commander to the captain, Li Yuan's name has also changed with the increase in the number of troops led. The original personal troops have now increased to more than 200 people. Gu Yun is now leading this personal troops.

"What did you say? Oh, I almost forgot. Gu Tunchang, you were originally from Xingyang." Li Yuanzuo suddenly realized, nodded to Gu Yun with a stern face.

A woman became a general in an ancient army, which made Li Yuan feel a little proud. As a modern person, Li Yuan had a strong complex for Mulan. Whether it was the version of Anita Yuan or Zhao Wei, for Li Yuan, who could only think about it in his memory, seeing Gu Yun in military uniforms reduced his homesickness a little.

Gu Yun never knew Li Yuan’s little thoughts. She was now immersed in the joy and excitement of temptation: “Captain, if you trust me, tomorrow night, I will sneak into the city from the Water Gate and wait until we contact Guan Gongcao and Hou Sima in the upper city, and then contact the captain.”

Gu Yun's eyes turned and the corners of his mouth bent slightly, looking in a good mood. He finally lurked to Li Yuan, and finally found such a good opportunity to show his abilities and connections. The excitement after long-term depression made Gu Yun lose his peace.

Gu Yun was exposed.

Although Li Yuan could not guess which force was behind her, at least one thing was certain that there would never be Zhao Ben behind Gu Yun.

November 19, 3rd year of the Great Qin II.

The continuous heavy snow covered the sky and the earth into a vast vast area. Liu Bang's coalition forces had been besieging Xingyang for three days. It became increasingly difficult for Xingyang City to connect with the water and land passages outside the city. The guards in the city were panicked and tried to fight at the gates of the city. This made the generals and soldiers of the coalition were even more arrogant.

Driven by fanaticism, the coalition forces attacked Xingyang very hard this time. Whether it was Peng Yue, General Pu or other small princes, they had extraordinary interest in the strong city of Xingyang. This was a city that Wu Guang had not captured by more than 100,000 troops. If any of them entered the city first, how could they miss the opportunity to become famous in the world?

After losing the main force that can be used to fight in a mobile field, more than 10,000 guards who were pieced together by Zhao Ben retreated step by step in the battle with the coalition forces, and were full of dangers. Zhao Ben finally began to experience the pain of being trapped in a cocoon. If it weren't for the heavy snow, the crowd in the city would have been imprisoned in front of Liu Bang's tent.

The desperate sentiment spread in the city, and the high-pressure situation caused by Zhao Ben was disintegrated by the arrival of Liu Bangjun. In the face of the heavy pressure of life and death, various forces of thought were constantly recombining.

In the east of the city, Li You Mansion.

Zong Zheng Chen Di, Xingyang Order Fan Jia, Gongcao Guan Yue, Sima Hou Xi gathered together. Behind these people, they all represent a force, and they are also the backbone of the anti-Zhao Ben in Xingyang City.

After Ying Yushu visited, Chen Di visited Li You's old mansion the next day. He also saw clearly that it was impossible to do anything else. If the city was destroyed, no matter how he pleased Zhao Gao, it would be useless.

What's more, the identity of the royal princess of Ying Yushu has made her undisputedly possess the power to represent the royal family. Hu Hai's actions have now disappointed the royal family of Ying. If you look for a replacement, Ying Yushu is undoubtedly the most suitable one. Although women cannot be emperors, they can still control the power. There are such examples in the history of Qin.

Chen Di's turnaround gave the anti-Zhao side the initiative. Zhao Ben and Wang Ming tried to suppress those who they could not stand or wanted to plot against, and they inevitably told Chen Di. After all, Chen Di was one of the two special envoys sent by the court to investigate. In fact, because he was deceived by Chen Di's always silent attitude, Zhao Ben and Wang Ming had not yet noticed that Chen Di had already had an unusual mind.

Xingyang ruling Fan Jia and Gongcao Guan Yue sat next to each other and had a great conversation. As veterans in the Xingyang officialdom, they were familiar with the situation of changing the king's flag on the city. However, it is obvious today that they did not represent the same force.

Guan Yue has nothing to guess. As the representative of Yang Xiong, he is the spokesperson of the Yang Xiong Group in Xingyang City. Although Yang Xiong was suppressed by Zhao Ben, the power was gradually declining, at least there was still some hidden.

As the magistrate of Xingyang County, Fan Jia's status has never been higher or lower. As a military center, Xingyang often has local county troops stationed in Qin, which makes Fan Jia's little power at hand insignificant. However, Fan Jia is still confident today. Among the soldiers guarding the city, nearly a thousand guards were drawn from him.

Hou Xi was a typical foreign force in this venue where local forces in Xingyang competed. The news that Li Yuan had reversed the situation on the White Horse reached Xingyang, which made Hou Xi go from being neglected to being sought after. In addition, nearly a thousand people who were placed in the east of the city were also slightly better.
