"King, Chen Sheng, this miscellaneous hair, dared to rebel, and dared to rob the emperor, he is really looking for death, you just let Lao Fan and I go to Xu Du to kill him" The angry Fan shouted.
Su Qin reminded: "That Chen Sheng has already carried the Son of Heaven and escaped from Xudu, and it is useless for you to rush to Xudu." ” "Bring me the map," the potter shouted, waving his hand.
Jing Ke immediately reprimanded the pro-army on the left and right, and removed a huge map to the ground, and the potter jumped off his horse, propped up the ground with his sword, and looked down at the map, his eyes sweeping over it.
"Chen Sheng is quite knowledgeable, he should know that he can't make any waves with a few thousand mobs, since he abandoned Xu Du and fled, he should know that he can't hold it, according to the direction of his escape, will he want to flee to Luoyang, and then flee west into Guanzhong to Yiyang Cao Cao" Su Qin analyzed beside him.
The pottery merchant's gaze extended from Xudu to Luoyang, and further west, Hangu Pass and Tongguan Pass, and then the land of Guanzhong.
This route was also the closest route for Chen Sheng and Liu Xie to escape from the territory of the Great Wei, and as for the Yan State in the north, it was obviously too far away from Xu Du, and they could not be stupid enough to attach themselves to Liu Bei.
"No, Chen Sheng definitely doesn't want to go to Cao Cao."
The potter flicked his hand and categorically denied Su Qin's judgment.
Su Qin looked stunned and looked at the potter suspiciously.
Tao Shang said: "Cao Cao took advantage of Chen Sheng's rebellion to seize Hanzhong, Chen Sheng can be regarded as a hero, but then he was missing, indicating that this person is either unwilling to be subservient, or Cao Cao is also suspicious of him, so he has to flee from Hanzhong, since this is the case, then he has no reason to defect to Cao Cao now." ” Su Qin nodded thoughtfully.
The potter then pointed to the west, "Their escape from Guanzhong is certainly the closest route to escape from my Great Wei Wang's land, but you must know that on the line from Luoyang to Hangu Pass, there are 20,000 elite soldiers stationed in Zhou Yafu, just Chen Sheng's mob, not to mention Luoyang, I am afraid that even the Tiger Prison Pass will not be broken."
You talked about Chen Sheng and some knowledge, how could he come up with such a decision?"
Speaking of this, Su Qin was completely convinced, nodded again and again, but said: "Since the Son of Heaven and Chen Sheng are not going to defect to Cao Cao, where do they want to flee to, is it possible that they want to cross the Yellow River and go to Youzhou to defect to Liu Bei, this seems too whimsical." ” The ministers on the left and right said yes, and even Fan Xu shouted that it was impossible, after all, from Xudu to Youzhou, there was most of the Central Plains in between, and even Yejing, which was heavily guarded, unless Liu Xie and Chen Sheng were stupid, otherwise they would not choose this condition at all.
"They didn't go to Cao Cao, let alone Liu Bei, they wanted to go here" With a wave of his palm, the potter slapped it on a corner of the map, and said categorically: "This king expects that they want to cross the Yellow River north and escape into Taihang Mountain." ” The eyes of Su Qin and the other ministers immediately followed what the potter pointed out and shot towards the vast mountain range at the junction of Bingzhou and Jizhou.
Su Qin's thoughts turned, and he suddenly realized, and said busily: "What the king said is extremely true, the terrain of this Taihang Mountain Range is dangerous, and the mountains are stacked, which is the easiest to hide and is not conducive to the army to conquer, Zhang Yan's Black Mountain Yellow Turban was hidden in this Taihang Mountain Range, whether it is Han Ting or Yuan Shao, they have never been able to exterminate it, if the Son of Heaven and Chen Sheng escape into the Taihang Mountain, we really can't help them." ” "It turns out that Liu Xie's house wants to escape to Taihang Mountain, Wang, what should we do now" Fan Xu was a little anxious.
The potter groaned slightly, and snorted disdainfully: "Don't worry, with this king, they can't escape from the palm of this king."
The potter immediately ordered Fan Hao to command the infantry army, and under the banner of going to Xudu to quell the rebellion, he continued to go north from the avenue and rushed to Xudu, so that Chen Sheng and the others could relax their vigilance.
The potter himself personally led 5,000 light horsemen, doubled the road, and rushed to the Yellow River to intercept Chen Sheng and Liu Xie's crossing of the river.
At the same time, the pottery merchant ordered Xiang Yu and other generals to lead the main army to speed up and shift the division as soon as possible, so as to prevent Chen Shengli from using his talent to attack the heart and incite more ignorant people to follow his rebellion, which in turn caused the Central Plains where Xu Du was located, setting off an even more storm of rebellion.
The potter believed that Chen Sheng's gang did have some extraordinary ability and courage, otherwise, he would not have raised an army to create a rebellion against Qin, setting off the so-called "first peasant uprising" in history, and then ignited the fuse of the heroes against Qin.
It's a pity that although Chen Sheng has courage and talent, after all, his vision and ability are limited, although he is the first to oppose Qin, he was quickly destroyed by the Qin army because of successive mistakes.
Such a person, how could the potter really take him seriously.
At that time, the king decree was handed down, and the pottery merchant passed through Ye County without entering, led five thousand iron horsemen, drove north, and went straight to the Yellow River.
On the south bank of the Yellow River, twenty miles south of Yanjindu.
On the northbound avenue, the dust and fog are rolling, the figures are moving, and tens of thousands of people and horses are walking on the avenue in a disorderly manner, heading towards the direction of Yanjin.
Chen Sheng raised his whip and looked at the team with no end in sight, the corners of his mouth raised slightly, and he hooked up a trace of pride.
When he escaped from Xu Du, Chen Shengcai only had 4,000 people, and after going all the way north, there were people coming to join him one after another, and in less than seven days, his followers had reached 30,000.
"If it continues to develop at this rate, by the time I arrive in Bingzhou, I will say that I have already gathered 100,000 people, and then I don't need to flee into the mountains, I can directly capture Bingzhou and establish myself as the king" Chen Sheng stroked his short beard with his hand, a slight smile burned between his eyebrows, and he was immersed in the blueprint in his imagination.
There would be so many people following him, even Chen Sheng himself didn't expect it.
Yingchuan County is the county where the key Tuntian people of the Great Wei Dynasty exist, and there are nearly 10,000 Tuntian people in the vicinity of Xudu alone, and these Tuntian people are the historical products that have been left behind by the pottery merchants in order to cope with the shortage of grain and grass, and follow Cao Cao's Tuntian policy.
In recent years, Xiao He has been in charge of the government, rewarding farmers and mulberries, persuading the people to return to farming, so that a large amount of wasteland can be reclaimed, and because of the talent of the pottery merchants, the wind and rain in the Great Wei Dynasty have been smooth for many years, and the grain and grass have been harvested for many years, and the dependence on the grain produced by Tuntian has been greatly weakened.
In addition, in the past two years, the Shang Dynasty reform has been very successful, liberating a large number of households from the hands of the powerful people, and the new number of households means that the source of national food has also been greatly enhanced, and the demand for tuntian has been weakened.
Therefore, when the potters conquered Wu, some ministers suggested that Tuntian could be banned, and these Tuntian people should be incorporated into the national household on the spot, but it was only because the potters fought all the year round that they did not have time to discuss with the ministers in detail, and the proposal to cancel Tuntian was shelved.
The agreement signed between these tuntian people and the government was that the government would provide money and cattle and consumables, and the tuntian people would cultivate the grain, and the grain and grass produced would be divided between the government and the people.
The share of grain received by the people of Tuntian is indeed a little less in terms of normal grain endowment, but in the situation of chaos and pastoral conditions at that time, the people of Tuntian were able to get funding from the government and survive, which was quite fair.
It's just that with the passage of time, in the Central Plains, around the Tuntian people, there are a large number of yeoman farmers, these yeoman farmers only need to pay the legal grain endowment, and they can get quite a considerable amount of surplus grain.
The people of Tuntian, who had lived a peaceful life for a long time, only knew that the grain tax given to them by the government was too heavy, and that it was unfair to exploit him, but they forgot the sharing agreement they voluntarily signed with the government back then.
As a result, the resentment of the people of Tuntian increased day by day, and they became more and more dissatisfied with the Great Wei government in their hearts.
At this time, Chen Sheng appeared.
He escaped from Hanzhong, disguised as Jianghu Langzhong, and in the process of practicing medical treatment, he secretly incited the dissatisfaction of the people of Tuntian against the Great Wei, and accumulated strength in private.
Chen Sheng originally planned to incite the people of Tuntian to rebel against Wei in the next attack on Wei, attack Xudu, hold the Son of Heaven hostage, respond to the countries, and deal a fatal blow to Great Wei from within.
Unfortunately, to Chen Sheng's disappointment, the kings were incompetent and were destroyed by the potters one after another, and not long ago, the news came that Liu Zhang, the king of Shu, was destroyed by the potters.
This news shocked Chen Sheng greatly, and also disrupted his overall plan, making him realize that it was unrealistic to expect the kings to attack Wei, and he had to act immediately, otherwise when the pottery merchant class returned to the north and a large number of the main forces of Great Wei returned, his chances would be even more slim.
Therefore, before the potters returned to the division, Chen Sheng entangled more than 4,000 Tuntian people, and took the opportunity of transporting grain to Xudu, killed the defenders by surprise, and captured Xudu in one fell swoop.
At this time, Liu Xie was in the palace with a sad face, and after learning that the potters had destroyed Shu, he was even more uneasy, and he had a premonition that after the potters returned to the master, it was very likely that they would force the palace and force him to give up the rivers and mountains of the Han Dynasty to the potters.

At this time, Chen Sheng rebelled, broke into the palace, and rescued him from the "clutches" of the potter.
Liu Xie was naturally overjoyed, and hit it off with Chen Sheng, and immediately made Chen Sheng a general, and the two of them combined with a group of royalists, estimating that Xu Du could not hold it, so he set a strategy of abandoning the city and fleeing north to Taihang Mountain.
According to this strategy, Liu Xie, under the escort of Chen Sheng, crossed the Yellow River from Yanjin to the north of Hanoi County, where the Wei army was empty, and from there went north into the Taihang Mountains.
Then, with the help of Liu Xie's Son Yu Wei, Chen Sheng summoned the ministers loyal to the Han family, gathered strength, and then invited Yan and Qin to send troops to attack and annex the state, where he killed it from the Taihang Mountain, and captured the state in one fell swoop.
Then, Liu Xie could set the capital in Jinyang City, take the state as the base, combine the troops of Qin and Yan, sweep away the pottery merchants, and rejuvenate the Han Dynasty.
"Liu Xie, do you think I will help you in the Han Dynasty, you are just a chess piece in my hand, I Chen Sheng is just to borrow the appeal of your Son of Heaven to achieve my Chen Sheng's grand hegemony, hehe" The more Chen Sheng thought about it, the more proud he became, immersed in the sweet dream he had weaved, and couldn't help laughing, with a weird sneer on his face. isjgy:
