After hearing the dispute between Qu Yuan and Roo, Xiong thought for a while and made a choice.

"The State of Song has more than 100,000 troops. If you want to annihilate it in one go, you must dispatch more than 200,000 soldiers. Xiang Jiao has a low qualification and is not enough to command such a large-scale army."

Xiong Lu did this with his own reasons. Although Xiang Yu showed extraordinary military command and his bravery was unparalleled in the world, Xiang Yan, Xiang Liang and his son had already been appointed as generals and lieutenant generals. If Xiang Yu was promoted again, the Xiang family would be extremely powerful.

As a far-sighted hero, Xiong Lu naturally would not let such a thing happen, nor would the Xiang family stand out and threaten the Xiong family's dominance in the Chu State. Even if Xiang Yu's ability to command troops is outstanding, he could only sacrifice!

The Xiong Mu had his plan in his mind, so he could only wait for Xiang Yan to escape from the army or return to the field after his death before reusing Xiang Yu. Progress step by step, and there would never be a situation where the three grandparents and grandchildren were in power together and their achievements were too great to shock the master.

After hearing Xiong Lu's words, Xiang Yu felt extremely bitter in his heart, and he could not hide his disappointment on his face.

He was so eager to make achievements, to use his achievements in pacifying the Song Kingdom to establish his reputation, and to prove to the people of the world that he was not a brave and unscrupulous warrior, but a commander who could be civil and military.

To this end, Xiang Yu worked hard to train his troops in the past year, teaching his soldiers with Ji Bu, Zhonglimei, Yu Ziqi and others day and night to improve their fighting ability on the battlefield, in order to be able to serve as the commander of the attacking Song Dynasty.

Now, Xiong Mun failed Xiang Yu's hope in just one sentence, erasing Xiang Yu's efforts over the past year, which made Xiang Yu deeply disappointed, even indignant and dissatisfied, and only hated that the hero had no use of his skills.

Xiang Yu was young and cunning, but Xiang Yan had been immersed in the court for decades. After hearing Xiong Lu's decision, he immediately stepped out to support him: "What the lord said is very true. Yu was young and reckless, so what can he do? If you want to successfully destroy Song, you need to send a respected general. If the lord doesn't dislike him, I am willing to plead to attack Song!"

The Xiong Mu was very satisfied with Xiang Yan's statement and smiled and said, "Xiang Qing is my number one general in the Great Chu. Your responsibility in the future is to fight against Qi, Qin and other powerful countries, so why should Xiang Qing take action personally, a small Song State?"

The bear couple said and swept to Xiang Liang and Dou Bobi: "I decided to appoint Xiang Liang and Dou Bobi to lead 100,000 troops to march in two directions, conquer Shangqiu and pacify the Song Dynasty. I wonder if you two have confidence?"

Xiang Liang and Dou Bobie took the lead together and held their fists to take the order: "I obey the order, this will definitely fulfill my mission when I go to attack Song!"

Only then did Xiong Lun turn his eyes on Xiang Yu: "Although Xiang Jie is still very experienced, he is brave and good at fighting. He can serve as the pioneer of Uncle Ling. He will train his abilities and will become a pillar of the country in the future!"

"I obey the order!" Xiang Yu endured the unhappiness in his heart and went out to take the order.

After the Xiong Gu finished the arrangement, Baili Xi then came out with the tablet in his arms and bowed to the ground: "Lord, I received a letter from Tang Gong Fangli yesterday, saying that Wei and Jin jointly attacked Tang and dispatched up to 300,000 troops. The Tang State was in danger, so I asked the old minister to ask for help from the lord and send troops to aid the Tang."

The bear couple twisted their beard and said, "Tang State is also our ally, but is it worth it to get into evil with Wei and Jin for the sake of Tang State? Tell me about your views."

At present, all the civil and military officials expressed their opinions, and some supported the support of the Tang Dynasty, because the enemy of Chu was not only Wu and Song, but also the powerful Qin State, and the ally was only one Lu State, which was obviously not enough.

If we compete with Qin in the future, the geographical location of Tang can play a good role, effectively help Chu to restrain Qin and reduce the pressure on the Chu army.

The other part of them objected, feeling that because a newly-rise Tang State offended the powerful Jin and Wei strong, it would be a little more worthwhile to make strong enemies when they make enemies with Song, Wu and Qin.

The two voices were noisy and evenly matched, and no one could convince anyone, so in the end they were left to the bear couple to make a decision.

Xiong Lei closed his eyes slightly and said, "I think that if you want to dominate the world and want to balance Qin, you must build a reliable and obedient allied country in the Central Plains, and Tang State meets this condition very well. Although Jin and Wei are strong, they are far from our Great Chu. When we destroy Song and Wu, only Qin will be a strong enemy, so there is no need to be afraid of Jin and Wei. I think that we can send troops to aid Tang!"

Baili Xi couldn't help but burst into tears when she heard this, and knelt on the ground and bowed: "I thank you for your kindness. I will thank you for your lord's help on behalf of the people of Yu State here."

"Baili Aiqing is flat!"

The bear couple smiled and greeted Baili Xi, not forgetting to show off their affection, "The reason why I decided to send troops to aid the Tang Dynasty is due to your own sake. You must do your best to benefit the people of our Great Chu in the future."

"I must do my best to do my best to do my best, and I will be dull and will not be resentful even if I die!" Baili Xi still kowtowed.

The bear couple turned their attention to Tang Mei and Yang Youji: "Wei and Jin Dynasties dispatched 300,000 troops. If the troops aided Tang were too few, it would not work. I decided to allocate you two 100,000 troops to help Tang and set off as soon as possible. But you two must remember that this should focus on support, try to avoid a head-on battle with the Wei and Jin Dynasties and reduce losses."

Tang Mei and Yang Youji took the order together: "I obey the order!"

After the morning court dispersed, the generals dispatched their troops as ordered. The land of Chu State shouted that horses were neighing, the wind and clouds changed color, flags fluttered, covering the sky and the sun.

Xiang Liang and Dou Bobi each led 100,000 troops to leave Yingdu and rushed to the Song State in the northeast of Chu State. Tang Mei and Yang Youji needed to gather some troops from all over the place, so they could only send troops after the day of their acquisition. Yingdu is the capital of Chu State, and the troops must not be drawn too empty, so as not to give Qin State an opportunity to take advantage of it.

Watching the Chu army heading north in a mighty way, the waving flags obscured the sky, the dazzling swords and guns changed the color of the sun and the moon, and the dense steps made the earth tremble.

Ma Pi and Jian Kuai, who had been waiting for news in Yingdu, sighed: "The State of Chu is truly one of the few major countries in the world. With the sudden dispatch of 300,000 troops, it still has as many as 250,000 to guard the territory. This strength is really amazing, and it is impossible to accept it! If one day, our Tang Kingdom can be so strong, why should we ask other countries for help?"

When Yu Miaoge learned that Chu State decided to send troops to aid Tang, he couldn't help but burst into tears. Fortunately, his brother did not mention marrying Xiang Yu again, so he expected that the sending of troops was definitely not the energy of Yu Ziqi. It was probably because a big man convinced Chu Gong to send troops.

Yu Ziqi had already followed Xiang Yu to attack Song, and before leaving, he was too lazy to say goodbye to Yu Miaoge, which made Yu Miaoge a little sad. He was unwilling to further deteriorate his brother-sister relationship, so he could only temporarily restrain the other party's longing for separation.

Two days later, Tang Mei ordered Yang Youji to be the vanguard and carried 100,000 troops away from Yingdu to support Tang. He planned to go north from Xiangyang to Wancheng and then to Xingyang, cross the Yellow River from Xiajin Ferry to north and go north to Pinglu to join the war. The entire journey is about a thousand miles, and it is expected to take about ten days of marching.

"It's fine, there are 100,000 reinforcements entering the country, so why worry about the Wei and Jin Dynasties not retreating!"

Looking at the vast Chu army, Ma Pi and Jian Kuaijia were very excited. They felt that Chu was much more righteous than South Korea, and that they would be more reliable in finding allies in the future. They were many times stronger than South Korea's verbal countries!

The two of them excitedly bid farewell to Yu Miaoge, and left Yingdu with a letter. They quickly whipped their horses and embarked on a journey back to Tang.

Just when the Chu State sent troops to aid the Tang Dynasty, Han Wu, the Marquis of Han, also received news that Han Fei was captured.

Although Han Wu was very afraid of Han Fei and was afraid that he would threaten his position, Han Fei's arrest was equivalent to the Wei people slapped him in the face. If there was no expression, it would not only be ridiculed by the princes in the world, but also aroused dissatisfaction among domestic public opinion.

After discussing with his ministers, Han Wu decided to use troops against the Wei State. General Bao Yuan led 70,000 troops to attack the Wei State. In name, it was to seek back Han Fei, but in fact it was to block the world's wide mouths.

Good news followed one after another, Fang Li was in a good mood. In order to avoid losing troops and generals, he did not attack Yongcheng occupied by Leyang, but instead camped under the city to confront him.

In order to relieve the pressure of Shen Pei who defended Pinglu, Fang Li ordered Zhao Yun and Gao Shun to lead 3,000 cavalry to bypass Yongcheng and harass the back of the Wei army, making it impossible for Pang Juan to attack the city with all his strength.

The Tang army's strategy was extremely effective. Zhao Yun, Gao Shun and Zhang Liao took turns to launch wheel battles against the Wei army, and kept attacking the backs of the Wei army. The strategy of the enemy stationing and attacking us, and the enemy advances and retreats was irritating. The Wei army was unable to defeat the trouble and could not attack the city with all its strength.

When Pinglu learned that reinforcements arrived, the people of Pinglu had a high morale and were full of fighting spirit. Almost everyone participated in the war, and the whole people were soldiers. After using up all the rocks and wood in the city, they demolished their houses, blocked the Wei army's siege with bricks and adobes, and guarded the ancient city of Pinglu with united fighting spirit.

When he learned that Bao Yuan led 70,000 Korean troops to attack Daliang, Pang Juan decided to give up attacking Pinglu and led his troops to join Leyang to fight against the main force of the Tang Kingdom in the wilderness, defeating the main force of the Tang army in one fell swoop, and completing his contributions in one battle.

"The Wei army retreated, the Wei army retreated!"

"We won, Pinglu saved!"

Seeing the Wei army heading south like a tide, gradually moving away, the sound of cheers on the Pinglu City Wall, the soldiers and civilians with ashes on their faces raised their arms and even cried with joy.

Shen Pei stood on the city wall with a wound bandaged, still with a serious expression. To Ji Ling, Liao Hua said: "The Wei army just gave up the attack on Pinglu. The war has not ended. It is not time to celebrate now. The Jin army attacked Jiangguan, and Chi Yang was very anxious and had to divide the troops to rescue him."

Shen Pei sent someone to contact Fang Li and Zhou Yu, and decided to order Zhang Liao to lead 3,000 cavalrymen to return to Chiyang to assist Qu Yi in guarding the pass, and Ji Ling led 4,000 people to Jiangguan to assist Ying Bu and Yan Liang to resist the attack of the Jin army.

You must guard the North Gate and not allow the Jin army to break into the territory, otherwise the Jin army's cavalry would rush like a flood. Pinglu was handed over to Shen Pei and Liao Hua to defend. You must not be careless. You must always beware of Pang Juan's killing and making a comeback.
