Although Xiang Yu was successfully forced back to Pengcheng, he was trapped.

But the battle is not over yet, the peripheral battle is still going on.

Fortunately, under the command of Han Xin, Ji Wushuang led the cavalry to break through at key places.

The battle went smoothly.

Qin Jun's camp was directly in front of Pengcheng.

After all, the Chu army is also an archer, but there are few people.

The physical requirements of archers are much higher than that of ordinary sergeants.

Zhao Lang also had some free time, standing in the new camp and looking at Pengcheng not far away.

At this time, there were still many Qin troops cleaning the battlefield outside Pengcheng.

The main reason is that it is hot now, if we don't clean up in time, we are afraid of outbreak of disease.

There are children of doctors and young soldiers who have learned the battlefield regulations, so there is no need to worry about this.

Zhao Lang was about to go outside to have a look, but he was stopped by the fawning Wang Li when he reached the entrance of the camp.

"Your Highness, where do you want to go?"

"If you want anything, you can talk to the general."

"I will go through fire and water at the end, and I will definitely do it for you!"

It's just that Wang Li's performance made the slaves at the side shake their heads secretly. The level of pleasing the master is too bad.

Zhao Lang laughed at this time, patted Wang Li's shoulder, and said with some sincerity,

"Brother Wang Li, I just want to take a look around, and you are also here. It just so happens that we haven't had a good chat for a long time."

When Wang Li heard Zhao Lang addressing him, there was a hint of joy in his eyes.

This shows that the other party still hasn't forgotten the love between them on Zhuangzi.

After hesitating for a while, Wang Li still showed a wry smile and said,

"His Royal Highness, Meng Shangqing has ordered that you must not be allowed to go out again."

Seeing Wang Li's firm attitude, Zhao Lang didn't want to make things difficult for him.

It seemed that his previous actions had frightened the other party.

With a helpless mouth, Zhao Lang quickly asked,

"Where's Meng Shangqing?"

"Covered Qing to him..."

Just as Wang Li was about to answer, Meng Yi's voice sounded beside him,

"His Royal Highness, the old minister is here."

Zhao Lang turned his head, and saw Meng Yi walking over in a hurry, it seems that he came back from outside.

After the two parties saluted, Meng Yi directly took Zhao Lang into the camp, but he didn't dare to let Zhao Lang out again.

Last time the other party didn't mean anything at all!

He said he would run away if the situation was not right, but what happened? He took the people and rushed into the cavalry of the Chu army.

At that time, he almost lost his soul!

This made him even have some opinions on Hu Hai who was on the side.

Didn't you agree to drag the prince away?

The results of it?

You also drew your sword and rushed up!

Fortunately, nothing happened.

Back in the tent, Meng Yi said with a smile at this time,

"His Royal Highness, don't worry. According to your instructions, we should focus on defeating the Chu army, and let them go back to farming."

"Now the Chu army on the periphery is no longer a threat, and only a small number of Chu army elites are still stubbornly resisting."

"It's only a matter of time before we wipe them out."

Soon, Meng Yi told Zhao Lang the news one by one.

"Now, our army only needs to trap Pengcheng."

"Moreover, in the past two days, people have already fled in Pengcheng, and the Chu army can't support it for long."

The siege of Pengcheng was to encircle three and one, in order to shake the opponent's will to resist.

Zhao Lang nodded upon hearing this, and couldn't help asking,

"How long will this siege take?"

Meng Yi laughed and said,

"His Royal Highness, the siege cannot be rushed."

"And even after the city is broken, the Chu land is vast, and the Xiang family has been operating for many years. We still need time in the future."

Siege warfare is not easy to fight.

If the city is forcibly attacked, even with the siege equipment of Mohist disciples, the casualties will be extremely heavy.

The current Qin army cannot launch such an offensive.

And the Xiang family is not made of mud, there is still a fight in this battle.

Zhao Lang also showed a smile at this time, and said,

"Meng Shangqing, you don't have to worry, as long as Pengcheng is defeated, the Xiang family won't last long."

"I want to end the war before winter begins."

His original plan was to end before autumn.

Now it seems that it is not enough.

Just hearing this, Meng Yi couldn't help but froze for a moment, and said,

"How can this be?"

There are millions of people in Chu, and the place is even bigger!

The Xiang family is not weak, even if they lose this match, they still have strength.

So he wanted to hunt down and kill those peasants, so as to weaken Chu's war potential the most.

Then Xiang Yu wanted to leave with all his heart, and led his elite to break through, but they might not be able to stop him.

When the time comes to recruit again, it will be another big battle.

Zhao Lang wasn't surprised by the other party's reaction either. In Daqin, no one understood the power of the common people better than him. He just said,

"Meng Shangqing, even if the Xiang family can escape from Pengcheng, if they can't supply the follow-up food and grass."

"Soldiers cannot be recruited again, how long can they support?"

Meng Yi thought for a while and replied,

"Without food and grass, and without soldiers, I'm afraid it won't last long."

"But how..."

Meng Yi was half-spoken, and suddenly stopped.

He understood why Zhao Lang shouted the slogan of going home and farming, and let those farmers go back!

The Qin army let them go, and the Chu army will force them to warn them. When the Chu army is strong, forget it. Once the Chu army is weak, it will be difficult to say.

One is not good, I am afraid that these remnants of the Chu army do not need the Qin army to take action!

Moreover, Zhao Lang is still the leader of the farm family, so I am afraid that the layout has already been made!

As for food and grass, since Zhao Lang said it, it means that he already has the means to deal with it.

Thinking of this, Meng Yi couldn't help taking a breath, and looked at Zhao Lang with complicated eyes.

With such a quick three-step calculation, Xiang Yu was not wronged to lose.

After a while, he saluted and said,

"Good regards, Your Highness the Prince!"

Zhao Lang smiled at this time,

"I still have to work hard to deceive Shangqing and force the Chu army out of Pengcheng."

Meng Yi nodded and replied,

"The veteran has blocked all the passages into the city. The Qin army's food and grass can't last long. After a while, they will surely break through."

Zhao Lang nodded, he couldn't be in a hurry right now.

After saying this, Meng Yi got up to leave at this time, and Zhao Lang led his people to get up and see him off.

Glancing at Hu Hai who had been following Zhao Lang all the time, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart about the fate of his life,

He already knew~lightnovelpub.net~ Prince Fusu and Gao were relegated to the frontier.

Although the prince Hu Hai has no talent, he is blessed.

It has to be said that sometimes, choice is more important than one's own strength.

After Meng Yi left, Zhao Lang stood in the camp and looked at Peng Cheng, thinking silently in his heart,

The situation now is different from the previous life.

I don't know how Xiang Yu will choose?

"Ayu, will you cross the river?"

Thinking of this, Zhao Lang's heart suddenly moved, and he said to the big dog beside him,

"Send a letter to Brother Hai to ask him to dispatch a boat and go up the coast!"

Whether it's useful or not, it's always good to be more prepared. (to be continued)
