Peng Yue knew that it was hopeless to defend to the death, the Chu army was strong, and what Luan Bu said still had some truth, since he was defeated, then both sides would be defeated, if Peng Cheng was the capital of Chu, then I would destroy them all, and the fish would die and the net would be broken, why not.
"Please also ask the virtuous brother to pack up the soldiers and horses of the headquarters, and go out of the city to Daliang tonight, I heard that Wei Xiang is highly respected in the country, so you can please Wei Xiang first, and he will introduce him to the King of Wei."
Peng Yue said thoughtfully.
Luan Bu also felt reasonable, and immediately saluted out of the hall, Peng Yue thought for a moment, thinking that there was nothing wrong with it, and immediately ordered a thousand troops from outside the palace, preparing to destroy the palace.
The reason why Pengcheng is famous is that there is the palace of the monarch of Chu State, which was repaired by the Qin Dynasty and used as the county government.
After the thousands of soldiers packed up the treasures, they separated the house from the palace, Peng Yue gave an order, and directly set fire to the palace, and after the fire was rapid, Peng Yue did not stay.
Flee along the west gate with a lot of property, the people in the city saw this, but no one went to put out the fire, after all, the palace pavilion was burned, Pengcheng had no place to be nostalgic, in this way, the thieves were not worried about the land of Pengcheng, and the people would live in peace.
In the early morning of the next day, on the side of the east gate of Pengcheng, the smoke was filled, the fire gradually disappeared, and the day before yesterday was still a prosperous temple, but it was turned into ashes overnight, although there was still some left, it was also picked up by the surrounding people.
In the Chu camp, Xiang Liang finished washing, and stretched out a lazy waist facing the rising sun, "So Pengcheng will be broken!"
” Without waiting for Xiang Liang to leave the camp, Fan Zeng ran in anxiously, his face was very anxious, Xiang Liang was a little stunned, everything was ready, it shouldn't be like this.
Then he asked, "Everything has been discussed yesterday, why is the gentleman in such a hurry?"
” Fan Chang sighed and said helplessly: "Things have changed, Pengcheng was burned by fire!"
Peng Yue and Luan Bu have already fled to Wei with their troops!
” "What!
And such a ridiculous thing!
Xiang Liang obviously didn't believe it, hurriedly walked out of the camp, and looked into the distance, there was still green smoke coming out of the city, and the people spontaneously opened the east gate, and there were already pedestrians coming.
Xiang Liang originally planned to use Pengcheng as the new capital of Chu State, but he didn't expect this kind of thing to happen, so he immediately rushed to Pengcheng in armor, not daring to delay in the slightest.
Before he left the camp, he asked Fan Zeng again, "Where are Xiang Zhuang and Ji Bu?"
” "Prime Minister Qi, the second general went to pursue Peng Yue, but he has not returned."
Fan Zeng said in a low voice.
When Xiang Liang heard this, he was very annoyed, "It's really ridiculous!
Peng Yue must have been prepared to flee at night, how could he catch up, Ru quickly sent someone to chase the two back, and went to Pengcheng first. ” Fan Zeng didn't dare to say more, and immediately bowed down to receive the order, Xiang Liang rode his horse and hurried to the city, entered from the east gate, and saw the collapsed temple, and there were sparks in some places, accounting for nearly a quarter of Pengcheng.
"Peng Yue Pifu, damn it!
Ay.
Xiang Liang sighed, so he had to order the soldiers to be stationed outside the city for the time being, and then send the soldiers to repair Pengcheng.
In any case, the geographical location of Pengcheng is quite superior, even if it is burned to the ground, it still cannot be lost, after all, it is surrounded by water on three sides, easy to defend and difficult to attack.
Ji Bu and Xiang Zhuang decided to lead 2,000 troops to pursue Peng Yue, but it is conceivable that they found nothing, and when they came back, they were scolded by Xiang Liang.
In the camp outside Pengcheng, Xiang Liang's face was hesitant, this was the first time he led his troops to fight, although Pengcheng was captured, for now, it can only be said that both sides are defeated.
"Now Peng Yue has fled to Weidi, don't worry, when the Qin army solves the Lingbi, a certain will go straight to Dingtao, and then grab Peng Yue and behead the public!"
Xiang Liang said ruthlessly.
Ji Bu was beside him, he didn't listen to Xiang Liang's command, he was terrified in his heart, and said in a low voice: "Prime Minister Qi, the last general is willing to stay in Pengcheng, and the abbot will repair the matter, and I hope that the prime minister will approve it." ” Xiang Liang also knew that Ji Bu was loyal to Chu, and this time he acted a little recklessly, so he had to wave his hand and said: "In this case, you can stay in Pengcheng, and the other 30,000 soldiers are stationed in Pengcheng, and a certain 20,000 soldiers will go to Lingbi to fight to the death with the Qin army!"
” When all the generals heard this, they were all bowed, but Fan Zeng's face was sad, thinking that the Qin army would march from Yangzhai, it must be prepared, Zhang Han and Li You joined forces, and the strength was definitely more than 40,000, and now only 20,000 is a bit abrupt.
Xiang Liang saw that Fan Zeng seemed to have a different opinion, and immediately patted him on the shoulder and said: "Mr. is old and thoughtful, which is of course a good thing, but the use of troops needs to be quickly resolved, so as not to delay the fighter." ” "For example, yesterday's incident, if you rush to attack Pengcheng, this kind of thing will definitely not happen, but unfortunately, it is completely because of the old gentleman's meticulousness that Pengcheng is like this."
Fan Zeng sat aside, wanting to persuade, but when he heard that Xiang Liang pushed this matter on his head, he was very unhappy in his heart, so he pretended to be calm and said, "The prime minister is thoughtful, and the old man has nothing to say." ” "In that case, send troops tomorrow!"
At this time, the commanders of the Qin army were Hu Hai and Zhang Han, and the deputy generals Li You and Meng Fang and others, as for Chen Ping and Yingbu, they followed Hu Hai in the center of the army and did not dare to make any mistakes.
When the army marched to Mangxian, the whole army rested, Li You served as a county guard in Sanchuan, with a good reputation, and along the way, there were slightly 10,000 prisoners and soldiers who were willing to follow, making the Qin army nearly 50,000 troops!
In Mangxian County, Hu Hai is in the tent, there is a map next to him, and he is holding a silk book in his hand, the generals are very puzzled, Li You first saluted and said: "Your Majesty, not far ahead is the spiritual wall, rest at this moment, what is the so-called?"
” Hu Hai immediately spread out the silk book in his hand, "Everyone, Aiqing, look at the battle report ahead, the Chu thieves have occupied Pengcheng, and the guards have fled to Weidi, and it seems that they will soon go to Lingbi to fight with our army."
"Your Majesty is worried that the morale of the Chu thieves is strong, and our army is invincible?"
Chen Ping stood aside and secretly suspicious.
Hu Hai nodded undeniably, "What Aiqing said is exactly what I am worried about, Chu thieves are all elite soldiers and strong generals in Jiangdong, although our army is mostly composed of homeless people, and if they meet head-on, they are afraid that they will not be defeated." ” As Hu Hai's words fell, the tent fell into silence for a moment, and when Yingbu saw this, he immediately rushed out from behind, "Your Majesty, don't worry, you can lead a team of people, but you can go to the thief!"
” "Ridiculous!
How can you be wild in front of Your Majesty!
Zhang Han hurriedly stopped.
But Hu Hai didn't care, but laughed out loud, "What Yingbu said, you can't ignore it." ” Chen Ping in the tent was the first to understand the meaning, "Does Your Majesty want Yingbu to ambush at Jushui?"

Wait for the Chu thief to come and frustrate his prestige?
” Hu Hai glanced at the map, "Aiqing laughed, I don't know the art of war, this plan still needs to be discussed by Zhang Han and Li You, but I think this plan is also feasible." ” Zhang Han and Li You didn't dare to have any negligence, hurriedly walked to the map, and said in unison: "Your Majesty is wise!"
