"Your Majesty, this is my fault."
Zhang Liang saw that Liu Bang had been silent for a long time and opened his mouth to break the brief silence.
"Hey, there's nothing wrong with the ovary.
There is no regret medicine in the world.
We don't need to think too much about the past.
Let's see what to do next."
Liu Bang, who had finished his sulking, said so knowing that he still couldn't leave Zhang Liang.
"I have thought repeatedly about why we are always led by Xiang Yu.
In the end, I decided that the problem lies in the situation.
Now Xiang Yu has the terrain and human power.
This terrain is because he relies on the powerful navy and Jiangdong and Jianghan's water network.
Make sure our troops cannot penetrate deep into his hinterland.”
"What does human strength mean?"
Liu Bang asked, blinking his eyelids.
"This power is that he lives in the south of the Yangtze River, getting rid of the situation where he was in contact with all the princes from all walks of life.
He jumped out of the circle of princes in the north.
Although the princes are now surrendered to His Majesty on the surface, they are actually integrated, and even And there are people like Tian Heng who blatantly refuse to recognize His Majesty as the Emperor."
Zhang Liang glanced at Liu Bang.
"Go on."
"Based on the above two points, our army does not dare to devote all its strength to the expedition, and can only build a network on the spot, hoping that Xiang Yu will fall into the trap.
Our mentality gives Xiang Yu an opportunity to take advantage of it.
In this way, he takes the initiative, and we are everywhere passive."
Liu Bang understood what Zhang Liang said.
He sighed and said, "Oh, I regret that I should not have adopted Sir's best strategy, and directly handed over hundreds of thousands of troops to Han Xin, crossed the river to pursue Xiang Yu, and did not give him a chance to breathe.
Maybe Xiang Yu has been defeated and died today.
That son Does Fang have a way to break Xiang Yu's momentum?"
"Now, all Bashu and Shu have fallen into the hands of Xiang Yu, and Hanzhong cannot be saved.
Your Majesty should deploy some troops to supplement Guanzhong, and urgently order the Guanzhong army to strengthen the defense of Chencang and Sanguan to ensure that our territory in Guanzhong is not lost.
Then your Majesty gathered the armies of various princes, marched south to Huainan, and then besieged Guangling.
If Xiang Yu lost Guangling, our army would be able to sneak across the river without any worries, raid the Zhenze Wusong area, and raid his grain.
Canghe Navy Camp.
So he should fight us here.
If he really fights us, Your Majesty can let Han Xin take full command of the entire army.
In addition, we need to send a partial force to recapture Xiangyang.
The lost land.
By occupying Xiangyang, we can firstly protect the military and attack Jiangnan.
In short, what we have to do now is to force Xiang Yu to fight us. " "In addition, from now on, our army will devote all its efforts to building warships in the Huai River, training naval forces, and digging a canal from the Huai River to the river.
It will be used for crossing the river in the future."
"This strategy can really work."
Liu Bang rarely expressed doubts about Zhang Liang's strategy.
Zhang Liang sighed and said: "At the moment, there is no other way.
If your Majesty can conquer the hearts of the world in his lifetime, this is the only way to treat a dead horse as a living horse doctor.
If your Majesty does not have such ambition, he will lead his troops back to Guanzhong now. , stay in seclusion in the land of Qinchuan and Heluo, and be a nominal king first, waiting for the opportunity. " After hearing this, Liu Bang almost spit out a mouthful of old blood.
I thought that according to what you Zhang Liang said, all the princes' promises were fulfilled and large areas of land were ceded.
Now you want me to go back and guard the eight hundred miles of Qinchuan and the mere Heluo land to be a nominal king.

Isn't this kidding me?
But he still suppressed his anger and asked: "What will happen if this strategy fails?"
Zhang Liang smiled hoarsely and said only four words: "The loser is a bandit."
Liu Bang was silent for a few minutes, and finally said: "I bet, just do what Zifang said.
I am the Red Emperor of destiny, and I can't die even when Xiang Yu easily kills me many times.
This is proof.
This This time I believe God is still on my side.”
Chen Ping, who had been silent at this time, said: "Your Majesty, I have one more thing to report.
After I sent people to conduct multiple inspections of the south of the Yangtze River, I found that the newly built Jinling City in the east of the Yangtze River was very strange.
The puppet Chu army had a large number of sophisticated equipment, and even Warships seem to be From then on, the city's workshops could produce a large amount of high-quality and low-priced goods to earn a lot of money for Xiang Yu.
Moreover, this city actually existed as Xiang Yu's palace.
There were no idlers living in the city, so it was impossible to send anyone in. check it out."
Zhang Liang suddenly realized and said: "No wonder Xiang Yu can recover so quickly in Jiangdong, no wonder he can feed nearly 300,000 troops in the remote areas south of the Yangtze River, no wonder he can build a powerful navy.
It turns out that the secrets are all in Jinling City."
Then he turned around and saluted Liu Bang and said: "Your Majesty, I suggest that during the battle of Guangling, if possible, send a surprise force to sneak across the river, attack Jinling and destroy the city.
Maybe there will be an unexpected surprise, and it may even be possible to destroy the city.
Xiang Yu killed him directly."
Liu Bang liked what Zhang Liang said, and he said with bright eyes: "Just follow what Zifang said."
On the bank of Han River, under Fancheng.
Liu Jia's two eyebrows were almost twisted together.
He stared at the piles of corpses under Fancheng without saying a word.
These were all corpses of Han soldiers.
A few days ago, the emperor allocated another 20,000 troops to him.
Combined with the 50,000 reinforcements from Hanzhong and the 80,000 troops from the headquarters, the total strength was 150,000.
Ask him to regain Xiangyang.
But at the moment, he can't even recapture Fancheng.
Although Liu Jia still doesn't know the saying that Xiangyang will be strong and Fancheng will be weak in later generations, he knows that attacking Xiangyang is much more difficult than Fancheng.
Today, even Fancheng garrisoned by two to three thousand people cannot be conquered, let alone Xiangyang garrisoned by tens of thousands of people.
Moreover, the Chu army's Huben naval division and land division, which are said to be able to accurately launch stone-pounding equipment, were deployed to support Fancheng in the future.
This made Liu Jia's confidence in regaining Xiangyang even more shaken.
Liu Jia also adopted the strategy of his generals and counselors, arranging more than 10,000 troops to bypass Fancheng and go south along the east bank of the Han River, trying to cut off the two Xiangyang supply lines of the Han River and Qinchi Road at the narrow waterway of the Han River.
But sending out two groups in a row was like a meat bun beating a dog, with no return and a loss of 20,000 troops.
This shows that there is still a mobile force of Chu army with considerable strength south of Xiangyang.
But he did not dare to risk the supply line being cut off by the Xiangyang defenders and send his main force south to fight the Chu army decisively.
In fact, Liu Jia made a mistake in his judgment.
This Chu army's mobile force did not have many troops.
It was a division of 5,000 soldiers composed of Nanjun's land reclamation troops.
But they had sentry posts all over both sides of the Han River, and local county and county garrison soldiers and township warriors were also mobilized to set up reconnaissance and cavalry posts.
Therefore, when the Han army moved south, Ji Bu was well aware of every move, and with the help of the water network in the Han River Basin and the convenient waterways of Yunmengze, he was able to quickly gather troops from various counties and nearby settlement camps to annihilate the small group of Han troops heading south.
Soldiers of Southern Infiltration.
"Have the ten siege vehicles I ordered to be built the day before yesterday finished?"
Liu Jia asked, staring at a captain who was responsible for building siege equipment.
"Tell the general, it's basically finished."
"It's basically finished, which means it's not all finished yet."
Liu Jia added grimly.

The lieutenant hurriedly explained: "General, the five-day construction period is too tight.
My subordinates are supervising day and night.
Seven of them have been built.
I hope that the general will give you one day and they will all be completed."
"I'll give you one day's grace.
Can the Chu army across the way give me one day's grace?
Your Majesty, can't you give me one day's grace?
Come on, pull him down and chop him down."
Liu Jia directed all his anger for many days on the captain.
"General, spare your life, General, I was wronged."
The captain, crying in pain, was pulled down by the soldiers, and soon a bloody human head was brought to him
