I’m The King Chapter 1438: : Han Banner World (128) give me a reason

Qu Wan's life is undoubtedly very tortuous. His old country is now being beaten to pieces and is on the verge of extinction, but he has nowhere to use him. He had no choice but to seize several prefectures and counties in Sanchuan County of the Qin State as temporary shelters. At the same time, he threatened and extorted the Qin people to obtain some more food and grass, barely keeping his remaining hundreds of thousands of subordinates from starving.

It’s not just that everything will be fine if you have a full stomach. The morale and morale of the army have fallen to the bottom. Deserters will appear every day. , Those soldiers who missed their hometown began to leave the soldiers secretly and deserted when they could not see any way out.

It is now mid-October, the footsteps of winter are getting closer, the wind has begun to cool, but his soldier *pig*pig*shima *small* said ww.huzu soldiers are still wearing thin summer clothes , Winter has become a problem before him. He needs a lot of cotton clothes and quilts, but obviously, the counties he occupies cannot provide such a large amount of military supplies. The Chu people in these places have already fled a lot, and now they have to support ten people. There are tens of thousands of troops, and it is considered polite to describe them as barren and four walls.

Qu Wan is planning another armed demonstration in order to ask the Qin people for what he needs. Of course, if the Qin people don’t give it, he will indeed fight. If he doesn’t fight, will his soldiers be alive after winter comes? Frozen to death?

Zhao Shucheng took a few confidant guards over the mountain on a rainy night in autumn. It can be said that he arrived at Qu Wan's residence, Danfeng County, after going through untold hardships. Although the Han people did not block the mountains tightly, there were still mobile sentries and patrols. These Han people were not interested in the scattered soldiers of the Chu army who fled, but for them. These Chu soldiers who had lost their weapons and armor were no longer soldiers, and ran away as soon as they ran. But for Zhao Shucheng, it was quite different.

The order he gave Qu Wan this time was too important, so important that he didn't even dare to give it to others, in case the people he sent fell into the hands of the Han people, the plan would be leaked. Then the state of Chu will never be able to return to heaven. Because of this, as the top person in charge of the secret army of the Chu army, he actually decided to take this trip himself.

Adorned as a woodcutter, he went out day and night all the way, lost several catties of flesh, and finally rushed to Danfeng County without any danger. Danfeng County has completely become the camp of the army, and there are hardly any civilians in sight, and what makes Zhao Shucheng even more frightened is that. On the faces of these Chu soldiers, he could not see a trace of anger, but only numbness and distress.

This added countless worries to his heart. Is such an army worthwhile?

And after seeing Qu Wan, he was even more surprised. When Qu Wan led the expedition, he was also in the sending team. At that time, Qu Wan was in high spirits. But the person standing in front of him now turned out to be a sluggish old man. You know, Qu Wan is not yet fifty, and his black hair before the expedition is now mottled and mixed. The wrinkles on the face are the same as old bark.

"General Qu!" He exclaimed. In the past few months, the great general who shouldered the lives of hundreds of thousands of soldiers can imagine the inner suffering. What kind of pressure can make a person age so prematurely!

"Zhao Shucheng, General Zhao!" Qu Wan's eyes widened. Looking at the people who came, he almost couldn't believe his eyes. Earlier, the soldiers reported that there was a messenger coming from Yingdu. He thought it was another kind of meaningless messenger who came to urge him to attack Wuguan and return to the country for rescue. If he can fight through, do he still need them to destroy him? But he never expected that it was Zhao Shucheng standing in front of him.

"You, why did you come here? Yingdu, what happened to Yingdu?" In Qu Wan's mind, Zhao Shucheng should be in Yingdu to be correct.

"Ying Du is fine now." Zhao Shucheng looked at Qu Wan and said, "But if we don't react, something will happen soon."

Qu Wan let out a long breath, "How is the near part of Chu State now? You also know that I am here, and the sources of news from Chu State are not well-informed."

"Shoufu and Taiwei are preparing to fight the enemy in the Jingzhou area. Now they have mobilized nearly 500,000 troops from all walks of life, concentrated in the Jingzhou area, and the defense line has almost been repaired." Zhao Shucheng said slowly: " The fate of the country of Chu lies in this battle."

"500,000?" Qu Wan smiled wryly: "500,000 people are concentrated in the Jingzhou area, there is no depth, and there is no way to fight back. How will this battle be fought? Will it last? Until the Han people retreat automatically? I'm afraid we want to endure it." I can't survive it!"

"Yes, although we have 500,000 people, there is a big gap between us and the Han in terms of combat effectiveness and preparation for war. We do not expect to defeat the Han, but our 3617/'> I hope I can exchange my life for time." Zhao Shucheng looked at Qu Wan with piercing eyes.

"The Han people have a total of 20 main armies, and now the Han army concentrated in Jingzhou has as many as 16 armies." Zhao Shucheng said: "General Qu, do you understand what I mean?"

"Exchange life for time!" Qu Wan murmured: "I understand, we use 500,000 people's defense to prolong the war and drag the main force of the Han people in Jingzhou, so that they can't fight back." Gu, at this time, if there is any problem within the Han State? Or if there are foreign enemies to attack, Chu State will be saved."

He suddenly shouted, "Qin people, the only hope is Qin people."

"Not only the people of Qin, but also you, General Qu, and you have 150,000 troops. Even if we can't take Wuguan, we can't go back to rescue, but we can go to fight the mainland of Han." Zhao Shucheng ruthlessly typical.

"But I have no food, no supplies, do you think I haven't thought about it? If I have enough food, I can attack Tai'an, take Tai'an, Wulong, and then go straight to Yingzhou County, attacking Ying water, into the mainland of Han, but it is impossible for my hundreds of thousands of people to go to war hungry!" Qu Wan said painfully.

"So this time I will come here in person, the first is to inform you about this matter, and the second is to solve the problem of food and grass supply for you." Zhao Shucheng said: "After seeing you, I will go to Xianyang Go to see Lu Chao. The lips are dead and the teeth are cold. Our great Chu is really dead. Could it be that they, Qin, can still take care of themselves? At this time, if they can’t cooperate with us sincerely, then after we fall, it will be their turn.”

"If there is enough food and grass, I will be able to hit the mainland of Han and force the Han army to retreat." Qu Wan's face was radiant again, and his eyes were radiant again. "It's just how do you convince Lu Chao? As far as I know, King Gao Yuan of Han gave Lu Chao a ten-year promise that he would not attack Qin for ten years."

"In the face of national interests, promises stink like bullshit!" Zhao Shucheng said coldly: "The relationship between Lu Chao and Gao Yuan is extremely complicated. If we talk about personal grievances, I'm afraid the one who wants Gao Yuan to die the most is Lu Chao. , in ten years, Lu Chao will be able to compete against Han with the power of Qin alone? Lu Chao must be very clear about this. This is our only chance, so why not their only chance? Otherwise, how could you Will you be able to stay here until this time? The Qin people are still eager to provide you with the necessary food and grass, because Lu Chao is also waiting, waiting for an opportunity."

"Now, you are a hungry wolf locked in a cage by Lu Chao. As long as the opportunity comes, he will let you out."

"However, the purpose of my coming is not just to solve the problem for you. This time, I want to let Lu Chao understand that if he still has the idea of ​​preserving his strength and sitting on the mountain to watch the tiger fight, then he will wait to fight with our Chu State." Let's subjugate the country together, if we don't fight hard at this time, then everything will be over."

"You go to Xianyang, I will boost morale in Danfeng again, as long as there is a possibility of returning home, the soldiers will burst out with great enthusiasm." As long as there is a glimmer of hope, the greatest potential can be stimulated. No one wants to be a subjugated slave.”

Ten days later, Qin State, Xianyang, Heibingtai.

This huge black palace used to be the symbol of the highest power of the Qin State. Generations of Qin kings issued orders here and ruled the whole country, but now, this black palace has changed its owner. There is still a master on top of it, but everyone understands that this baby king sitting on the throne, who is only a few years old, is just a puppet, and the person who manipulates him now lives in the Black Ice Terrace Hall Among them ~IndoMTL.com~ Lu Chao, who entered the Black Ice Terrace, removed the changes made to the Black Ice Terrace during Yingying's reign, and all the comfortable decorations were swept away, so that it was restored to King Qin Wulie. The appearance of the times. In the huge palace, it was empty, but those geographical maps that criss-crossed the ground looked more like a satire now.

Zhao Shucheng noticed that above the location of Jicheng, the capital of the Han Dynasty, it was not the uniform black in the hall, but a piece of bright red, which was a bit dazzling.

"Please sit down, General Zhao!" Lu Chao sat cross-legged on the pu tuan, and in front of him was the bright red ball. "I don't need to say these words, because I understand them all. I also know that without the state of Chu, my state of Qin will be alone. But at least the state of Qin can still survive for ten years. In ten years, many things may happen. Accidents, for example, Gao Yuan suddenly died of a sudden illness? As long as he dies, will we have a chance? So, give me a reason, if there is no answer that satisfies me, I would rather wait for such accidents that are not easy to happen. I am absolutely unwilling to go to a situation where I must die."

"The state of Chu will never be defeated quickly!" In front of such an extremely intelligent person, without saying anything superfluous, Zhao Shucheng simply said: "General, the state of Chu can drag the main force of the Han people to Jingzhou all the time, let us They fell into the mud."
