Chapter 116 The army is dispatched to capture Xiang Yu
Other situations are easy to find out, but the secret passage is difficult to investigate. It is definitely a secret of the Xiang family. How can it be found out in a short time?
What they lacked was time. Leading so many people to march from Xianyang, not to mention the daily consumption of food and drink, but hiding so many people was a big problem.
It is not an easy task to hide the traces of tens of thousands of people.
The longer the delay, the more likely it is that they will be exposed, and then they will not catch the Xiang clan by surprise, which is called countering the rebellion of the Xiang clan.
It would be great if Xiang Yu could not be stationed in the Xiang clan and could not escape through the secret passage...
Meng Yi was thinking in his heart, and suddenly he remembered what his brother had just mentioned: It is said that someone in the county is going to do something. Xiang Liang is always invited to be the host of funerals. What a great reputation!
So when Xiang Liang was asked to be the host, would he take Xiang Yu with him?
As Xiang Liang's most valued nephew, Xiang Yu took him with him to let him gain experience and get in touch with some people to accumulate connections. This possibility was not ruled out.
Meng Yi asked: "Brother, when you went to inquire, did you find out about Xiang Liang's movements?"
Meng Tian said: "I was just about to tell you that Xiang Liang is visiting the county town today, and a family has asked him to attend to something. I went to see that family's house, and there is indeed something wrong."
Meng Tian said. Yi hurriedly asked: "Brother, has Xiang Liang ever Are you bringing the Xiang family’s children?”
Hearing what his brother said, Meng Tian felt that he finally understood why the king sent his brothers to capture the Xiang family. This guy with heavy pupils.
Since ancient times, people with double pupils have been extraordinary. They were born with the appearance of saints and emperors. Legend has it that Cangjie, Yu Shun and Chong'er all had double pupils. Cangjie coined the word "Sage", Yu Shun was the ancient emperor, and Chong'er was the overlord of the Spring and Autumn Period.
If the man with double pupils was the king's son, the king would not be worried. However, this son with double pupils comes from the Xiang clan and is the enemy of Da Qin. If the king can still sleep, then there is something wrong.
If Chongtongzi is not eradicated as soon as possible, if the ancient legend is true and Chongtongzi is allowed to grow, will the world still be Qin?
It is a pity that he did not know the reason beforehand and did not inquire whether Xiang Liang had brought a descendant of the Xiang family with double pupils.
Meng Tian shook his head and said: "Xiang Liang brought the Xiang family's children, but I don't know if any of them have double pupils. I should find out more clearly."
The Xiang family has quite a lot of people like me. In a prestigious place, if you inquire too much about people, it is very likely that as soon as you ask, someone will inform the Xiang family, causing the Xiang family to be vigilant.
Therefore, Meng Tian and others were disguised when they went to inquire about the prime minister. They only inquired about the key questions determined in advance and did not ask about other things.
Meng Yi said: "Brother is not to blame for this, Yi Wei told him earlier."
Although the king said that he could inform Meng Tian about the Xiang family when he felt it was necessary, but then Come, brother will definitely guess Li Nian's origin.
And Meng Yi didn't want Meng Tian to know Li Nian's origin, because Li Nian was too special, and he couldn't see through whether Li Nian's future would be good or bad.
It goes without saying that it is good, but if it is bad, then people like him who know Li Nian's origin will most likely not be good either. It is enough for the Meng clan that Meng Yi knows Li Nian, and there is no need to involve another brother.
If he dies, there will still be brothers who can support the Meng family. But if both of their brothers die, the Meng family will definitely decline or even perish.
Looking at the map, Meng Yi and Meng Tian discussed, and also called in other Qin generals. They mainly discussed if the Xiang clan had a secret passage, where would be the exit of the secret passage, and how to deploy their troops to capture the secret passage. The person who escaped?
After some discussion, Meng Yi, as the general, ordered: "I will personally lead an army to go to the prime minister. My brother will lead an army to attack the Xiang clan. General Ge, General Chu...each will lead an army to go there. In these areas, once anyone is found, they will be arrested immediately. General Wu and General Cai will each lead one "Stand by."
The general's order was issued, Meng Yi glanced at the sky and said, "Please work together, don't delay, and capture the Xiang family as soon as possible."
Meng Tian and all the Qin people. The general saluted Meng Yi and said seriously: "Follow the order!"
This matter cannot be delayed. The longer it is delayed, the more likely it is that the Xiang family will find out, making Xiang Yu more likely to escape.
Even if he knew that he was not 100% sure of catching Xiang Yu, Meng Yi could only choose to cut through the mess quickly.
'If Xiang Yu really escapes, he can only use the lives of the Xiang family to force him to show up. According to what Li Nian said, Xiang Yu would rather kill himself than cross the river. He died. '
The king's order must be fulfilled, but Meng Yi does not want to use this method until the last moment. Not only does he think this method is too despicable, but he also considers that using this method will definitely make Da Qin's reputation The area gets even smellier in the photo below.
Originally, Da Qin's reputation in these places is not very good, but it still uses such despicable methods to arrest the Xiang family. What will the local people who think that the Xiang family are good people think?
Groups of Qin troops broke out from the dense forest where they were hiding, and headed towards Xiaxiang under the leadership of Qin generals such as Meng Yi and Meng Tian.
In Xiaxiang County, it was still afternoon, it was not dark yet, the city gate was not closed, and a group of soldiers guarding the city were bored at the gate.
Although they wear the clothes of Qin soldiers, these soldiers are actually locals.
If a land is captured, Da Qin will have to station a Qin army, and hundreds of thousands of Qin troops will not be enough.
Several soldiers guarding the city gate were gathering together to talk about where their superiors who were supposed to be here with them had gone. Suddenly, there was a roar from the distant ground.
The expressions of the soldiers suddenly changed. This movement meant that a large number of people were approaching!
But now that the Qi State has been destroyed, how can there be such a large number of people to come to the prime minister?
Is it the enemy, or is the Qin army mobilizing?
Although the guards guarding the city gate were bored and seemed lazy, at this moment, the soldiers guarding the city gate responded quickly. Some went to the city to report, and some warned the surrounding people and closed the city gate.
Soon, a Qin army appeared outside Xiangxiang City. Judging from the momentum of the march, it was obviously a real tiger and wolf army of Qin.
After discovering that it was the real Qin army, some of the common people felt a lot more at ease. Although they were once citizens of Chu, Chu was destroyed by Qin a few years ago. They are now considered the people of Qin. This Qin army should not have come here to massacre. Theirs, right?
Leading the Qin army was Meng Yi. He glanced at the closed gate of Xiangxiang County. He now had two choices: one was to reveal his identity and let the people in the city open the gate; It is to break through the gate of Xiangxiang City.
Both options have their own problems: In the first option, even if he reveals his identity, the people in the city may not open the city gate immediately. Instead, they will ask the county magistrate first and wait for the county magistrate to come. open.
There will be a period of waiting. With the reputation of the Xiang clan in the Prime Minister's office, when the county magistrate gets the news, the Xiang clan people in the city must also get it. What will they think and do?
You will definitely guess whether this Qin army is coming to cause trouble for them!
