Chapter 128 Attack on Xianyang
.When Xiang Zhuang was in Wei Liao and Wu She surrounded the horses and entered Hangu Pass, it was already bright.
Wei Liao patted the broken door of Hangu Pass and said with emotion: "General, Hangu Pass is so majestic in the world, but in the end, my Great Chu captured it, hahaha."
Wu She also praised: "I have no strong pass that cannot be defeated by the iron armor of the Great Chu!"
Xiang Zhuang nodded silently, then turned over and dismounted, and stepped onto the juncture step by step along the horse path.
Walking up the horse road, I saw corpses lying on the ground everywhere, most of which were from the Han army, but there were also many dead soldiers in Chu army, especially when Xiangzhuang stepped onto the city, he saw Gongsun Sui standing on the shut. Although Gongsun Sui had already been extinguished, he was full of eyes and his body was not falling.
Xiang Zhuang couldn't help but sigh, but Gongsun Sui died in battle here.
Gongsun Sui was originally a small school under Xiao Gongjiao's tent. He was brave and good at fighting and had good martial arts skills. Xiang Zhuang still remembers the scene when Gongsun Sui and more than 50 Chu soldiers were rescued. But he never thought that he would be here today.
In addition to Gongsun Sui, Xian Dengying also suffered heavy casualties, with at least two hundred people killed in battle and more than one hundred seriously injured!
In addition to climbing the camp first, there were relatively few casualties in the camp, and no one in the Nufeng camp was injured or killed.
Jin Xiang came to Xiangzhuang dejectedly and said shamelessly: "General, Jin Xiang is useless and failed to save Brother Gongsun's life. Please blame me."
"Silly boy." Xiang Zhuang patted Jin Xiang on the shoulder and sighed, "How can you blame me?"
After saying this, Xiang Zhuang looked around the Chu soldiers standing around and raised his arms and shouted: "As a soldier, Gongsun Sui was able to die in the battlefield and wrap the body in the horses. It was his honor! And all the soldiers who died in battle, this was also their honor! What a honor they were able to die in the battlefield and in the Hangu Pass?!"
Xiang Zhuang Hongliang's voice instantly spread inside and outside the wall with the cold morning breeze.
In order to win the Hangu Pass, the Chu army paid a high price, and the casualties of 20,000 new soldiers were particularly heavy!
However, compared with the casualties, what is worse is the morale and morale of 20,000 new recruits. In the battle of Hangu Pass, 20,000 new recruits almost faced double killings. Going forward, being killed by the Han army, retreated, and being killed by veterans! Therefore, although Hangu Pass was captured, the remaining more than 10,000 new recruits seemed to show signs of instability.
The most urgent task is to relieve the resentment in the hearts of these more than 10,000 new recruits and to reiterate the morale of the army!
Xiang Zhuang roared, and the new soldiers who were closing the battlefield were clearing the battlefield, all raised their heads, but they all looked cold. It could be seen that the new soldiers were still very resentful.
Xiang Zhuang took a breath and shouted again: "People are going to die after all!"
"Even if it is the Three Emperors and Five Emperors, Yao, Shun, Yu and Tang, did it eventually turn into a cup of loess?"
"You, you, and you, will one day die in the battlefield and turn into a cup of loess!"
"But I want to tell you that as long as you die, death is not as terrible as you think."
"What does it mean to die? It means you die, but the titles you earned with military merits and rewards you earned with the enemy's heads have made your wife and children buy land, have food and clothing, live a good life without worries about food and clothing. This is called death and it will not be in vain to come to this world. That's all worth it!"
Whether it was a veteran or a new recruit, they all nodded silently when they heard this.
What is the purpose of being a soldier? Apart from making a living, isn’t it just a matter of winning a wife and a son?
Although many soldiers are still alone now, as long as they earn military merits and have titles, are they afraid that they will not be able to find a loving little girl and give birth to ten or eight sons?
Xiang Zhuang turned his head and shouted, "Where is Wu She?"
Wu She took two steps forward and bowed, "Wu She is here."
Xiang Zhuang waved his hand and said loudly: "Login the names of all the soldiers. Whether they are alive or have died in battle, they will be promoted to the first level!" Xiang Zhuang's promise was actually just a blank check, because now he has neither territory nor grain income, and he can't give the title at all.
However, no one doubted Xiang Zhuang’s promise, because the ancients valued loyalty and righteousness very much.
Especially for people like Xiang Zhuang who have high positions and powers openly do things without trust, they will inevitably be despised by the whole world! Therefore, whether it is a veteran or a new soldier, they are willing to believe that when the Chu army fights back to Jiangdong, Xiang Zhuang will surely fulfill his promise and will definitely reward them with their true titles!
After hearing Xiang Zhuang’s promise, all the soldiers looked excited!
Especially those veterans of the Chu army, many of them have even obtained the fourth-level "not-updated" title!
Once you have obtained a non-renewal title, it means that you can be exempted from renewal, which means you can retire at any time and you will no longer have to fight to the death on the battlefield to earn military merits! Of course, at this stage, even if the veterans of the Chu army have obtained a non-renewal title, they still have to serve in the army. After all, Xiangzhuang now has no land.
In less than a moment, more and more new recruits gathered at the gates.
The new recruits reposted that Xiang Zhuang's promises soon spread throughout the army. With the inspiration of military merits and the temptation of titles, the resentment in the hearts of the new recruits finally disappeared.
Behind Xiang Zhuang, Wei Liao couldn't help but lightly his head.
He is worthy of being the general, and he hits the point in one go!
However, Xiang Zhuang's purpose is not just this. Give military merits and titles only solve the morale of the new recruits, but the morale problem is still not solved. After the iron-blooded baptism of the Battle of Hangu Pass, the remaining more than 10,000 new recruits were almost all elite, but their morale is low now and they have no fighting spirit. Xiang Zhuang still has to find a way to inspire their fighting spirit.
To inspire the fighting spirit of these recruits, it is difficult to say, but it is easy to say.
As long as they try to arouse the beastly nature of the new recruits and arouse their desire to burn, kill, and robbery beasts, they will immediately become a group of bloodthirsty beasts, and they will immediately be full of fighting spirit!
However, the people of Guanzhong will suffer an unprecedented catastrophe.
Xiang Zhuang didn't care about these things anymore. Besides, he originally planned to destroy Liu Bang's foundation in Guanzhong! Now that things are coming, how could he be merciful? It's really like a gentleman who is not a toxic man, not a husband, not a ruthless heart, not a ruthless man, not a ruthless man, not a scoundrel, how could he beat Liu Bang, a rogue who can push his biological son out of the car and run for life?
Thinking of this, Xiang Zhuang did not hesitate anymore, jumped onto the female wall, then raised his arms and shouted: "Warriors of the Great Chu, tell me, are you hungry, do you want to eat meat?"
"Think!" The veteran Chu army who was closing the wall responded with a loud bang.
"Do you want to drink?" Xiang Zhuang said sternly and roared again.
"Think!" This time, all the recruits who heard the question responded loudly, and the recruits on the outside also roared hysterically.
"Do you want to sleep with your little mother?" Xiang Zhuang roared with hissing and roaring again.
"think!"
"think!"
"think!"
Whether it was a veteran or a new recruit, they all spoke in unison and responded loudly this time.
Although the veterans were ready to fight, the new recruits were also ready to move and couldn't wait.
Xiang Zhuang pulled out the horizontal sword, pointed the tip of the knife from the west to Xianyang, and then shouted at the top of his lungs: "Then why are you still stupid to stand here? Follow this road to the west to Xianyang. There is meat, wine, and thousands of little ladies in Xianyang City, and you will all be yours!"
Xiang Zhuang's words were like a drop of water falling into a oil pan, and the sky was boiling in an instant.
"Come on, walk with Lao Wuzi, enter Xianyang City, drink and eat meat, and sleep with the little lady in Guanzhong!"
"Hahaha, I'll listen to it. The wine and meat in Xianyang City are about to be decided!"
"Baby guys, all cheered up Lao Wuzi, rushed into Xianyang City, robbed money, grain and mother!"
Looking at the blood of the beasts boiling in the lower gate, Xiang Zhuang felt cold in his heart, so he immediately turned his sword forward and gently 3. Tens of thousands of new soldiers immediately felt like a flood breaking the embankment, overflowing Hangu Pass, and then flocked to Xianyang, four hundred miles away, along the straight and spacious road.
Xianyang was originally the capital of the Qin Empire.
At the end of the Qin Dynasty, Liu Bang and Xiang Yu were in chaos and entered the pass one after another. Liu Bang listened to the advice of Xiao He and Zhang Liang, and almost no grass was moved to Xianyang. However, Xiang Yu did not follow the advice of Yafu Fan Zeng, and almost burned the entire Xianyang with a fire. However, now, under the painstaking management of the Han Prime Minister Xiao He, Xianyang has restored its former prosperity.
Xiao He even built a large-scale construction and built the Changle Palace on the basis of the Qin Palace.
A few days ago, the magnificent Changle Palace was finally completed. At this moment, Xiao He was patrolling the entire palace with Queen Lu Zhi and the ten-year-old prince Liu Ying.
Looking at the layers of palaces and buildings, Lu Zhi said to Xiao He as she walked: "Prime Minister, the king has only a few wives and concubines, and his children are only six or seven. Isn't it too deserted to live in such a large palace?"
To be honest, Lu Zhi's mood is quite contradictory at this time. On the one hand, she also wants to live in. It will definitely be very comfortable to live in such a large palace. But the problem is that once she really lives in Changle Palace, there will definitely be many palace maids serving the life of the King of Han. The King of Han was originally very lustful. Wouldn't the bees enter the flowers?
Lu Zhi was just over forty years old, and she was just as old as a wolf or a tiger. She didn't want to stay alone in the air.
Xiao He naturally knew Lu Chu’s thoughts, and he had nothing to say at the moment, so he just responded and made excuses.
Lu Zhi sighed and said, "Prime Minister, I heard that the rebels were found outside Hangu Pass? I don't know where the rebels came from. Why has the news been heard from my elder brother yet?"
As soon as Lu Dan finished speaking, a junior official suddenly chased after him in panting.
The junior official at the school saw Xiao He from a distance, and before he could see the ceremony, he shouted loudly: "Prime Minister, the king is urgently delivering it!"
