"Zhang Hua swallowed the Great Qin in the west and conquered Qi in the east, just like the powerful Qin in the Warring States Period, and the heroes of Guandong were like the six Guandong countries. If they were not in line with each other, they would be defeated one by one."

"You are trying to follow Su Qin and join the six kingdoms, but the six kingdoms are eventually destroyed by the powerful Qin."

"Is there any better way for Yafu?"

Liu Muzhi's words made Fan Zeng fall into a long silence.

Indeed, Fan Zeng had no choice.

Zhang Hua dispatched the Five Tiger Generals to Qi in order to promote Qi and Chu in one go. Fan Zeng's troops could no longer keep up with Zhang Hua's expansion.

"Father Ya thought that before the demise of the six countries, the Xinling Jun Wei Wuji could still defeat the powerful Qin repeatedly by combining the troops of the five countries, which shows that the six countries are not weak, but they cannot work together. If the army unites together, how could the powerful Qin destroy the six countries?"

Liu Muzhi left no effort to lobby Fan Zeng.

"My Chu State, your Song State, Sima Yi's Jin State, Qi State of King Wei of Qi, and Zhu Youjian's Ming State, so the Guandong Hezong Army has soldiers from five countries."

Fan Zeng closed his eyes and pondered. According to Liu Muzhi's plan to unite the alliance, the heroes of Kanto could at least bring together the five countries to unite the alliance army.

"There are many princes north of the Yellow River, among which Liu Xiu and Li Shimin are the two most powerful princes. If you lobby the Han and Tang countries and ask them to join our Guandong Hezong Army, it will be the seven kingdoms. At that time, it will be easier to destroy the Xia Kingdom."

Liu Muzhi outlined a beautiful future, so Fan Zeng was moved by this.

During the Warring States Period, Su and Qin joined forces with the six countries and also wore the seals of the six countries, which made Qin not dare to send troops to Hangu Pass for the fifteenth year!

As an official of the Chu State, Fan Zeng naturally knew the story of Su Qin.

In the middle and late Warring States Period, the Helun faction represented by Su Qin and Su Dai fought with the Lianheng faction represented by Zhang Yi and Fan Sui for a hundred years. In the end, the six countries could not work together and fight each other internally, and ended the troubled times with Lianheng faction winning.

"The two vassal states of the Han and Tang dynasties are strong and better than our Chu state. They may not be willing to join the Union Army. Even if they join, who will be the leader of the alliance?"

Fan Zeng knew that Liu Xiu's Han Kingdom and Li Shimin's Tang Kingdom were even stronger than Xiang Liang and Western Chu established by Fan Zeng.

Unless Xiang Yu returns to Western Chu, he can go hand in hand with Han and Tang.

Liu Muzhi said: "What you fear most is internal fighting. The time is not as good as the place, and the place is not as good as the people. No matter which vassal state is the leader of the alliance, it is not important. What is important is to defeat Daxia."

Fan Zeng nodded: "Yes, the reason why the six Kanto countries were defeated by the strong Qin was because they could not work together. This time, the united army would not be defeated."

"Our Song State attacks Wancheng. Jin State attacks Xuchang. You attack Lixia, five countries join the coalition of the clan and attack three groups. As for the Han and Tang dynasties, their kings are the heroic rulers. No matter whether they join the coalition army or not, they will not sit idly by and watch either side become bigger. Since Xia State is the strongest, when Xia State fights the coalition army, they will inevitably take action. In this way, we can successfully let the Han and Tang dynasties intervene in the Central Plains battlefield."

Liu Mu's general Li Shimin and Liu Xiu also plotted against the actions of the Hezong Army.

Fan Zeng looked at Liu Muzhi with admiration. As the counselor of Emperor Wu of Song, Liu Muzhi was also a master of the moment.

No matter which emperor, there will always be counselors around him. As Liu Muzhi, as Liu Yu's counselor, was meticulous and even Fan Zeng looked at him with admiration.

"Reported that Emperor Li Shimin of Tang sent an envoy to ask for his visit, and the envoy called himself Su Qin."

"Su Qin?!"

Fan Zeng and Liu Muzhi never thought that Su Qin, a traitor during the Warring States Period, was actually serving Li Shimin!

Su Qin was on an envoy, probably to join the throne!

"Bring Su Qin to see me."

"yes."

Soon, a middle-aged man came to Fan Zeng and Liu Muzhi with a happy expression: "In the lower Su Qin, he was ordered to lobby the Kanto countries and form a united army with our Tang Emperor to fight against Daxia."

Liu Muzhi was surprised: "The Emperor of Tang also plans to join the throne?"

Su Qin said seriously: "Yes, our Emperor Tang takes Guanzhong, and you all the countries in Guandong divide the Central Plains."

"Li Shimin actually wants to get rid of Guanzhong..."

Fan Zeng quickly analyzed the situation. Western Chu was beyond the reach of Guanzhong, while Li Shimin's Tang army could attack Hedong, then directly cross the Yellow River and march into Chang'an.

For Fan Zeng, his focus was on Qingzhou, Xuzhou and Central Plains in Guandong, because Guanzhong has never been the sphere of influence of Chu.

"I can promise you. Mu Zhi, what do you think?"

Fan Zeng agreed with Li Shimin's decision and looked at Liu Yu's adviser Liu Muzhi.

Liu Yu occupied the entire Jingzhou, and his troops were almost the same as Liu Xiu and Li Shimin. If Emperor Tang Li Shimin also wanted to join the Hezong Army, then the leader of the Hezong Army might be Li Shimin, not Emperor Song Liu Yu.

Liu Muzhi pondered for a while, and then replied: "Our Emperor Song has something to say that as long as he can defeat Daxia, no matter who is the leader of the alliance, it doesn't matter."

Su Qin's eyes flashed with a strange look. Liu Yu and Liu Muzhi were even more wiser than the kings of the six kings during the Warring States Period. They didn't care at all who were the leader of the alliance, but only cared about their own interests.

Only territory, population, troops, money and food are practical things. As for the false reputation of the leader, it is not important.

"How did Emperor Liu Xiu make a decision? If Liu Xiu also joins the Hezong Army, then the power of the seven kingdoms of Heguandong will definitely be able to defeat Daxia."

Liu Muzhi wanted to know the decision of Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu.

Gugua

The Han and Tang dynasties were the most powerful, followed by Song, Chu, Qi, Jin and Ming dynasties.

The Ming Dynasty here was Zhu Youjian's subordinate, not Zhu Yuanzhang.

If it was Zhu Yuanzhang's Ming Dynasty, he could compete with the Han and Tang Dynasties.

The State of Chu also lacked Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu, so its strength would be reduced by a level.

Just the Han and Tang dynasties and the alliance between the two kingdoms is enough to give Zhang Hua a headache. If the alliance between the seven kingdoms of Kanto is combined, Zhang Hua would not be able to bear it.

Su Qin replied: "Liu Xiu claimed that the eldest princess and Zhang Hua were not suitable to use troops to neighboring countries, so let's wait and see for the time being and not join the Hezong."

Liu Muzhi frowned: "Liu Xiu is going to be a fisherman."

Fan Zeng's eyes were ruthless: "Liu Xiu wanted to sit in the mountains and watch the tiger fight, but he did not join the Hezong. Once the Hezong army won, Liu Xiu would not want to make a profit."

"Then the matter of Hezong was finalized like this. We agreed on the time to attack Xia."

Su Qin and Fan Zeng and Liu Muzhi conspired to attack Xia in the specific time and deployment.

The three of them are all intellectual strategists, and it is effortless to communicate.

Sima Yi sent Sima Zhao to join the gang.

The person in charge of the Qi State was the minister Yan Zi, and Zhu Youjian of the Ming State sent a famous general Lu Xiangsheng to discuss the matter of the Hezong.

After Zhang Hua issued the world mobilization order, the six kingdoms of Guandong, Tang, Song, Chu, Qi, Jin and Ming formed a coalition army, issued a manifesto to fight against Xia, declared war on Daxia, began to recruit soldiers and expand their troops.

The two major military groups, the Xia army and the coalition army, were accumulating troops, horses, food and grass, and were at a strife.

Fan Zeng's Chu army, King Wei of Qi's Qi army, and Zhu Youjian's Ming army gathered in Qingzhou.

Sima Yi's Jin army gathered in Runan.

Liu Yu's Song army gathered in Xinye and formed a juncture with Sima Yi's Jin army.

Li Shimin's Tang army gathered in Hedong and directly threatened Zhang Hua's rear - Guanzhong.

The news of the six countries' union spread, and all the states and counties were shocked.

The combined army of these six countries is much stronger than the original alliance of princes in the 18-town Taihang Mountains.

The eighteen princes in Taihang Mountains include Wei Wenhou, Lu Bu, Huang Chao, Wei Yan, Zhang Xutuo, Sima Yue, Zhang Liang, etc. The strongest troops are only 100,000. However, the six countries have combined their troops, including Emperor Taizong of Tang, Li Shimin of Song Wudi, Liu Yu of the Western Chuya father Fan Zeng, overlord of the Warring States Period, King Wei of Qi, King Xuan, Sima Yi of Emperor Xuan, and Zhu Youjian of Chongzhen. The strongest troops are more than one million soldiers!

Sima Zhao went to the camp of the Chu army, completed the work of the coalition, returned to Runan, assisted Sima Yi in rectifying the Jin army, and prepared to fight against the 450,000 Xia army used by Zhang Hua to attack Runan.

Zhang Hua mobilized Zhang Xutuo's Sui army, as well as Wang Jian, Meng Ao and Sima Cuo, the Qin army to farm in Xuchang, in order to attack Sima Yi.

"Let the counties of Runan County recruit soldiers and horses, go door to door, recruit strong men, and those who disobey will kill the three clans."

As the army was approaching, Sima Yi was anxious and ordered Sima Shi, Sima Zhao, Sima Yue, Du Yu, Huan Wen, Beigong Chun and others to send all the strong men from Runan County to do their best.

Sima Yi repeatedly defeated Zhang Xutuo, who was lacking in wisdom, but Zhang Hua transferred the troops of the Three Qins to deal with Qin generals such as Sima Yi, Wang Jian, and Sima Cuo. It was not so easy to fall into the trap. Sima Yi had to recruit soldiers from the entire Runan County to resist the Xia army that came to attack him.

Sima Shi raised 3,000 dead soldiers in an offensive manner. These dead soldiers were active on the border between Runan County and Yingchuan County, assassinating scouts and generals of the Xia army.

The three thousand dead soldiers offered by Sima Shi will be raised for a thousand days and use troops for a while. At this time, there is no need to pay any cost. It would rather sacrifice a group of dead soldiers than weaken the opponent's troops.

Sima Yi's power was in panic. Only Emperor Hui of Jin, Sima Zhong, who did not eat meat, was still living a good life. Anyway, he didn't have to lead troops...

In Xiangyang City, Liu Muzhi replaced Liu Yu to join the Kanto countries to form an alliance, and returned to Xiangyang City and reported to Liu Yu.

"If only our Jingzhou troops were in danger, it would be difficult to win. This time, the six countries jointly attacked Xia, and they had to conquer Luoyang and fight to Hangu Pass."

Liu Yu sat on the throne, and the six countries had already divided their spheres of influence in advance.

Li Shimin's Tang army took Guanzhong, Liu Yu took Nanyang, Luoyang, Fan Zeng took Songzhou, Bianzhou, Sima Yi took Yingchuan, and King Wei of Qi took the former land of Lu, while Zhu Youjian could obtain Qi, and part of the land allocated to him by Chu was used as fiefdom.

Liu Yu was ambitious and could not wait to advance to the Central Plains.

Liu Muzhi said: "The lord just pacified Jingnan, and many soldiers were physically and mentally exhausted. During this period, they would recruit soldiers and horses. After the rest, they could compete for the Central Plains."

Liu Yu tapped the dragon throne with his fingers: "Recruiting millions of troops, reorganizing the troops, and sending troops to the Central Plains according to the agreed time of the Union Column."

Liu Muzhi bowed: "Now."

Outside Xiangyang City, in the Xianshan Camp, Tan Daoji, the third-generation general of the Northern Prefecture Army, is urgently training a group of newly recruited Northern Prefecture Army, while many Song Dynasty generals are competing.

boom!

A burly general of the Song State was shocked, spitting blood in his mouth, and looking up at the peerless general standing in front of him with breathlessness: "I am sure that he is Gao Aocao who is compared to Xiang Yu, and I am convinced by Wenpin."

Gao Ao Cao had a long eyebrows and a leopard neck, and was extremely brave, defeating many military generals under Liu Yu in succession.

Liu Yu fought from Jingbei to Jingnan and conquered many famous generals from all dynasties, including Huang Zu, Wen Pin and others from the late Eastern Han Dynasty. However, these military generals were defeated by Gao Aocao, a fierce general of the Southern and Northern Dynasties.
