After several bloody battles, Li Yuan is no longer the same as a young military marquis before.

On his handsome face, a scar was scratched from his right ear to his forehead, and the area where he had just scabbed slightly raised, adding a bit of fierceness to his whole body.

Chen Ping, Hou Xi, Guan Yue; Luo Jia, Jiang Yu, and five people formed the core team around Li Yuan. Among these five people, Chen Ping expressed his feelings early in the morning. Now his relationship with Li Yuan is full of prosperity and loss. Hou Xi and Luo Jia are the old subordinates who have been following Li Yuan for the longest time. There is no need to question loyalty. Although Jiang Yu joined Li Yuan's army for a short time, he was quickly promoted by Li Yuan. Behind his joining represents a large number of new forces.

In contrast, it was surprising that Guan Yue became a member of the core team. Guan Yue had been immersed in the officialdom for nearly twenty years and had never seen anyone. He did not easily express his political position as the usual style of such officials. For them, no matter who came to power, as long as they did not clearly express their opposition, they would always have the opportunity to be appointed. Before, Guan Yue had played under the command of Li You, Yang Xiong, and Zhao Ben. Although he was considered to be dedicated, he was never considered a confidant.

This time, after the border general Su Jiao entered the city, Guan Yue's old partner Fan Jia immediately turned to the border army, which seemed to be stronger. In terms of strength, Su Jiao's border troops were nearly 6,000, most of them were elite soldiers who had been experienced in battle formations. In addition to the Mudan Tower hidden underground, the main force in Xingyang City is now this army. Gongsun, who has always been involved with Guan Yue, also lobbying Guan Yue for two days. This made Guan Yue feel both annoyed, and he felt that if he was a fence-bearer, he would probably be mediocre in his life.

A scholar died as a confidant. Although he was not a famous scholar, he also knew the principle of repaying kindness. Li Yuan's performance in the Battle of Xingyang is obvious to all. If it weren't for him, the city would have been captured by Liu Bang's army, so how could Su Jiao take the lead and do you have to be the turn of being a hero.

After drinking with his old boss Yang Xiong, Guan Yue chose to stay under Li Yuan's command. This is why he was able to attend such a secret meeting.

At the point where the lights shine, the two words Xianyang jumped into the eyes of Chen Ping and others like thunder.

"Xianyang? How is this possible?" Guan Yue was the first to lose his color and screamed, his round eyes widened. He could hardly believe his eyes. The place where Li Yuan pointed was actually the capital of Qin: Xianyang.

For the Qin officials who were like Guan Yue, Xianyang was like a sacred and inviolable palace. Without the call of the court, they would not be able to return to the center of the empire. Therefore, Li Yuan wanted to take down many defenses with just a few thousand county soldiers. Xianyang, which was regarded as the most impoverished city in Qin, was not crazy, what was it?

Is Li Yuan crazy?

Of course not. He was annoyed by the continuous meat grinder wars in Kanto. For the Qin army, none of the homelands of the six Kanto countries was safe.

There were enemies everywhere, and there was no idea where a rebellious armed force would emerge. This was the biggest problem facing the Qin army. In the Xingyang defense battle, according to Li Yuan and Chen Ping's plan, three Qin troops, Zhang Han, Wang Li and Luo Jia, surrounded from different directions. They had a great hope to encircle and annihilate Liu Bang's troops, but in the end, the annihilation battle was formed by the addition of Xiang Yu and Han Cheng's two anti-Qin forces.

What made Li Yuan even more uncomfortable was that the Qin army's supplementary was also facing great problems, and the consumption was far from as much as casualties. With the chaos of Hu Hai and Zhao Gao, fewer and fewer people had a good impression of Qin in the Guandong area. If Li Yuanjun wanted to be reborn, he had to leave Sanchuan County and go to Guanzhong where the Qin people lived.

Time is endless.

In a few months, Liu Bang and Xiang Yu's two armies will enter the hinterland of Qin from Wuguan and Hanguguan respectively. By then, if Li Yuan did not have a sufficient force to compete with and did not occupy a base area where he could advance and retreat, then what awaited him would be the same fate as Wang Li and others: killing him.

If you don't want to die, you must take a gamble and take risks to save your life.

"Guan Gongcao is right. The place we are going to next is Xianyang, our capital." Li Yuan smiled coldly, his eyes full of awesomeness, and his sharp eyes swept across Chen Ping, Luo Jia, Hou Xi and others' faces one by one.

This battle in Xingyang gave Li Yuan not only a strong confidence, but also a elite soldier was forged in his hand and gained Chen Ping and other subordinates. More importantly, he saw the crux of the current crisis of Qin, which was the internal struggle for power and profit. If this problem was not solved, the demise of Qin was inevitable.

Since there is an elite soldier in his hand that can change the situation, why not try it out and attack Xianyang, kill Zhao Gao, and abolish Hu Hai, so that the source of the chaos in Qin was completely destroyed.

"If the general advances westward, if he has no name, our army may not even be able to enter Hangu Pass? Why not take the name of clearing the emperor's side? "Chen Ping thoughtfully, and he had quickly immersed in his role in the shocking proposal made by Li Yuan. Chen Ping was a member of Wei and had no sense of belonging to Qin. The reason why he defected to Li Yuan was just because he was attracted by Li Yuan's potential. Now, since Li Yuan is determined to take risks, Chen Ping of course would have to sacrifice his life to accompany him.

Take down Xianyang and kill the emperor.

How can such glory fall into the hands of others? No matter what, Chen Ping must participate in this adventure that is famous for historic history.

"Qingjun, sir, too!" Li Yuan's eyes lit up and he almost blurted out. The three words Qingjun were recorded in historical books. The rebellion of the Seven Kings during the reign of Emperor Jing of Han was still the last part of the Qin Dynasty. Chen Ping had already proposed it. Why didn't Li Yuan be surprised?

"Ha, the general's thoughts are far-reaching, and Ping admires it very much. Hu Hai is unrighteous, but as a king, if our army proposes to abolish and establish, it will not be accepted by the Qin army along the way. If it is a banner of killing Zhao Gao, even if the counties and counties do not participate, they will acquiesce us to pass!" Chen Ping was excited and analyzed.

"Sir, you're too optimistic. Not to mention anything else, this Hangu Pass is a dangerous pass in the world and has heavy troops to guard it. If our army takes the banner of clearing the king's side, the soldiers guarding the city can open the door." Guan Yue retorted. Guan Yue, who was originally from Xianyang, has also been to Hangu Pass several times. Whenever he sees this dangerous pass, he feels a sense of fear. Now that he hears Chen Ping so optimistic, he can't help but make different opinions.

Chen Pingzheng was worried that no one would argue with him and could not show his ability. After hearing Guan Yue's question, he immediately replied: "Kongcao forgot that we have also imprisoned an important person in prison. If we don't use it, wouldn't it be a pity."

"Sir, is Zhao Ben?" Hou Xixiang didn't easily interrupt. The content of the discussion at this secret meeting was too shocking, which made him breathless for a long time.

"If it is not this person, who else can there be? Whether our army can detain Hangu Pass will be regarded as this person." Chen Ping said confidently.
