Xiang Kang really wronged his good third uncle Xiang Bo this time. Xiang Bo did not frame him out of thin air and shamelessly slander him. In fact, Feng Zhong not only did this on the battlefield on the southern front, but also did more excessively and more rampantly than what Xiang Bo introduced in his letters.

However, just like Xiang Kang and Zhou Zeng expected that Xiang Kang arranged for the Southern Front of the Young Commander of the Foreign General Feng Zhong. After sending the written order to the Huainan Front, Master Xiang Bo was indeed furious. Although he was the same ancestor as Xiang Kang, he still scolded his unfilial nephew behind his back, scolding Xiang Kang for being tragic and betraying the ancestors and betraying the ancestors. He left himself with such a talented, civil and military, and who was in command of the army and victorious in all kinds of battles, but he did not come and respect him. He actually used Feng Zhong, a slave who was a foreign surname, who has been a countryside muddy for generations! If it weren't for Zhang Liang and Xiang You, Xiang Bo would have almost rushed back to the northern line and came to find Xiang Kang, the unfilial nephew, to fight hard!

While hating Xiang Kang, Xiang Bo was of course extremely dissatisfied with Feng Zhong, who snatched his throne of commander in the southern line. He dreamed that Feng Zhong would replace him and take over the power of the young commander's army. After Feng Zhong took office, he held a military meeting for the first time. Before Feng Zhong could preside over the meeting, he deliberately rushed to say: "Everyone, today we gathered together to discuss how to take down other cities in the southern part of the East China Sea and open up direct contact with our country's Marshal Xiang Liang, the country of the Great Chu. I hope you will work together and have any good strategies and plans. Even if it is feasible, I will definitely adopt it with General Feng Zhong and Feng Feng."

Hearing this, the young commander and civil and military officials present were of course stunned and subconsciously looked at Feng Zhong's reaction. Feng Zhong was also obviously caught off guard. He didn't know how to refute Xiang Bo's scattered power. Fortunately, the Han soldiers who are always around Feng Zhong reacted quickly and whispered a few words in Feng Zhong's ear in time. Feng Zhong then calmed down and said with a smile: "Everyone, Master Xiang has misunderstood. I will hold this meeting today. I am not trying to discuss the next tactical plan with you, but to discuss other things."

The young commander and civil and military continued to say nothing, but they felt a little admiration for Feng Zhong in their hearts. They cleverly regained the initiative. Such methods are rare. Xiang Bo, who tried to underestimate Feng Zhong, looked a little ugly and said with a forced smile: "In this way, it is indeed a misunderstanding. But General Feng, are you trying to discuss other things when you hold this meeting?"

Feng Zhong also worked as a pavilion chief and Youzi, and later served as a magistrate in Xu County for a period of time. Feng Zhong also developed some leadership skills and cleared his throat and said, "Master Xiang, and all the generals, who were wrongly loved by the Young Marshal, promoted me to the general of the Great Chu State's storm, and asked me to preside over the southern front of the Young Marshal's Army for him. I, Feng Zhong, was really flattered, but I had to be loyal to my duty. Yesterday, after receiving the Young Marshal's written order, I thought hard and weighed it over and over again, and had already decided on a tactical plan for military use. Today I just wanted to ask everyone for advice and see if my tactical plan is feasible."

Xiang Bo's face looked even more ugly. Chen Ying, who actually looked down on Xiang Bo in his bones, smiled and said, "It turns out that General Feng has a chance of winning, so we can feel much more at ease. General Feng, please tell me your wonderful plan, let me listen carefully."

"The reward for Chen Duwei is not a clever plan, it is just a superficial tactical plan." Feng Zhongqian then said: "That's what I plan. I plan to concentrate the main force of our Young Marshal's Army in the south, first attacking Huaiyin in the east, and then heading south to capture Guangling, seize the city and open up direct contact with Marshal Xiang, and finally turn around and go west to capture Tangyi, restore the entire East China Sea, and complete the Young Marshal's instructions and expectations for us."

Chen Ying and other young commanders nodded, but Xiang Bo was sarcastic and said, "General Feng is indeed a clever plan. Our army's main force is currently gathered in Xutai. Dongyang to the south is the territory of General Chen Ying and General Chen. It is most convenient to go south to take Tangyi. If you leave it shortcuts, you will waste your time. You will first go to the Huaiyin City, and then go south to Guangling. It is indeed a master move, a master move."

Xiang Bo's intentional straits are destined to have no effect, because before this, Feng Zhong also raised similar questions to his personal soldiers surnamed Han, and immediately said with a smile: "Master Xiang is not bad. Judging from the current situation, it seems that our army goes south to directly to Tangyi. However, the wise man has made a mistake occasionally, because Master, you have forgotten a way and drive the way!"

Xiang Bo looked at Feng Zhong in confusion, but Feng Zhong talked freely and said, "Master Xiang must have forgotten that it is two hundred miles from Xutai to Tangyi, and one hundred and thirty miles from Tangyi to Guangling. The road is all ordinary roads, which are difficult for soldiers to walk, and food and grass to transport. If our army takes Huaiyin first, we can go south to Guangling along the broad road built by the tyrant Qin. During this period, our army only needs to walk about 140 miles of ordinary roads, and at the same time, we can also obtain the benefits of transporting grain from the Huaihe River, which saves time and saves the food and grass required for the transportation of grain. During this period, our soldiers have to save how much effort we have to save and how much food and grass to consume along the way. Has Master Xiang not calculated?"

Xiang Bo was speechless and continued to pick the bones in the eggs for a while, saying, "Huaiyin City is strong. Our army could not attack several times before, and sacrificed the lives of many soldiers. If we still couldn't take it down, what's the use of the road any easier?"

"Master, don't worry, this is already there at the moment." Feng Zhong smiled and said, "Although the city in Huaiyin is solid and not easy to attack, our Young Marshal Xiang has wiped out the main force of the tyrannical Qin army in Donghai County and has also taken down Tancheng, the capital of Donghai County. When the tyrannical Qin army in Huaiyin heard the news, it will inevitably be terrified. How can our army attack again at this moment be able to capture it?"

"It's easy to say."

Xiang Bo snorted coldly, and was extremely disdainful of Feng Zhong's big words. Unfortunately, other young commanders and civil and military officials did not see this way. Ma Pei, the magistrate of Xutai County, who had voluntarily surrendered, immediately stood up and bowed to Feng Zhong and said, "What General Feng said is extremely true. When he heard that Gongsun Qing was dead and Tancheng had been broken, the violent Qin army in Huaiyin must be frightened and had no intention of fighting again. The subordinates were not talented and had a little friendship with Liu Dingzhi, the magistrate of Huaiyin County, and would rather serve on the general's envoy to Huaiyin and persuade Liu Ding to surrender in Kaicheng. He hoped that the general would allow him to accept it."

Hearing this, Feng Zhong showed joy and wanted to agree. Unexpectedly, the personal soldier surnamed Han behind him suddenly coughed, and at the same time he pointed a finger on Feng Zhong's back. Feng Zhong woke up and said with a hurried smile: "Maxianzun is not afraid of hardships and voluntarily goes to risk his risk of persuading the tyrant Qin army in Huaiyin. I am really moved. But there is no need. It is too dangerous to do so. I am really reluctant to let Countyzun take such a big risk."

"The general doesn't have to worry." Ma Pei insisted and said, "Since Ma surrendered to the Great Chu, he has not yet made a contribution to the size. He feels really ashamed. Now that he has the opportunity, the subordinate officials are willing to take this risk and help the general achieve great success."

Feng Zhong still insisted on shaking his head and once again refused Ma Pei's volunteering kindness. Ma Pei had no choice but to ask Feng Zhong what he planned to do. Feng Zhong replied: "There is no hurry to recruit surrender. In the previous period, our army's partial army attacked Huaiyin and suffered losses of soldiers and generals, and more than 160 soldiers were sacrificed. This revenge must be avenged. The general's meaning is that after our army sent troops, we should cast a white flag in the army and write the four big words "revenge and hate" so that the tyrannical Qin army in Huaiyin knows that our army will not only take down the Huaiyin city, but also liquidate the old debts we had for the last attack!"

Everyone was stunned, and then Xiang Bo was of course laughing wildly. Chen Ying, Ma Pei and others were surprised to Feng Zhong's young generals and civil and military officials and said: "General Feng, aren't you kidding? We do this, wouldn't we force the tyrannical Qin army in Huaiyin to death? How could the tyrannical Qin army in Huaiyin surrender to us?"

"No need to ask more, just do it." Feng Zhong insisted, and said, "Everyone is going back today to prepare for sending troops. We will send troops eastward at noon tomorrow to take down Huaiyin."

Chen Ying, Ma Pei and others were stunned again, but Xiang Bo laughed happily and couldn't wait to say, "Did you hear it? General Feng has already given orders, go and prepare, we will send troops east to fight Huaiyin at noon tomorrow. Remember to prepare the banner of revenge and release the news so that the tyrannical Qin army in Huaiyin knows that we are going to find them to settle the old accounts this time!"

The young commander and civil and military officials did not dare to deal with Xiang Bo's trouble, but turned their eyes to Feng Zhong. Feng Zhongze smiled and said, "Go and prepare quickly. Tonight we will have someone prepare a banquet. We will gather together again and arrange the affairs of staying in Xutai. We will set off tomorrow to fight Huaiyin."

The young commander's army looked at each other, but could not resist Feng Zhong's repeated urging, so he had to take the order and prepare. Xiang Bo also smiled and took Xiang Youyang away. As a result, after everyone had finished leaving, Feng Zhongcai said to the Han soldiers behind him: "It's so hard to bear it. If it weren't for you to stop me, I really want to tell them our real plans."

"You must endure it." The personal soldier surnamed Han replied: "General, you will not only be dissatisfied with Master Xiang, but also may not be convinced by the way. If you don't make a little mysterious and let them see through the general's methods and skills, how could they know how great you are? Be patient for a few days and then give them a surprise, so that they will truly obey your advice."

Feng Zhong nodded repeatedly, patted the shoulder of the personal soldier surnamed Han and said, "I'm so sorry for helping me. I can't treat you badly. If I have a chance in the future, I will definitely recommend you in person in front of the young coach and ask him to reuse you."

"I hope you can do what you say." The personal soldier surnamed Han murmured in his heart, and was somewhat dissatisfied with Feng Zhong's repeated embezzlement of his contributions and embezzled his plans.

…………

When Feng Zhong and Han's personal soldiers were each insane, Xiang Bo also returned to his residence with a smile on his face. As soon as he met, he couldn't wait to tell his friend Zhang Liang about the meeting. As a result, Zhang Liang was of course inexplicably informed when he heard this, and said, "It's right to fight Huaiyin first. If it were my commander brother, your southern army, you must fight Huaiyin first and then take Guangling, but what's the name of directly taking revenge? Isn't it even more difficult to force the tyrannical Qin army to death and then take Huaiyin?"

"The villain is successful." Xiang Bo said contemptuously: "No one listens to it. He insists on doing this. I am too lazy to care. When he suffers a loss, I will see how I deal with him!"

Zhang Liang planned and said after a while: "Brother, I think you'd better understand the situation first. Although Feng Zhong, the head of Guizhou, was born in a humble background, was quite strategic and had a good mind to do things. I suspect that he was so mysterious and unexpectedly surprised everyone, establish his reputation and prestige, and let everyone obey his true words."

Xiang Bo could hear Zhang Liang's words. In order to understand Feng Zhong's true intentions and plans, when everyone gathered for a banquet in the evening, Xiang Bo repeatedly tried under the banner of persuading Feng Zhong not to act recklessly, trying to take out something from Feng Zhong's mouth. Unfortunately, Feng Zhong was determined to keep it secret, and he gritted his teeth and did not reveal any rumors. He spoke anxiously, and Xiang Bo, who was irritable and arrogant, had a dispute with Feng Zhong, which led to the dinner that was over.

At noon the next day, after spending money to buy a fortune teller and pretended to be a ghost, he got the signing of Feng Zhong, the young commander with a total of more than 5,000 troops, and advanced eastward. As a result, when he set out, Xiang Youjun, who was appointed as the vanguard, actually received a white flag with four big words "Revenge and Suffering". At the same time, Feng Zhong also clearly ordered Xiang You to release the news early to let the Huaiyin Qin army know that the purpose of the self-stop visit was to settle the old accounts. Xiang You had no choice but to follow the order, while knocking the revenge banner to the front of the army, and let the soldiers spread news to the people along the way, deliberately letting the Huaiyin Qin army find out the purpose of the self-substation.

Two days later, Xiang You's army, who was advancing lightly, arrived at the Huaiyin City first. The Qin army led by Liu Dingzhi and Guan Gu did not dare to go out of the city to fight, and decisively chose to close the city and protect themselves. At the same time, the situation was also reported by Xiang Bo and Xiang You and his son. In addition to trying hard to strengthen the city defense, the Qin army in Huaiyin City repaired a defensive fortification under Huaiyin City, and early on set up a stance to defend the city, which also made the already very difficult to fight Huaiyin City even more difficult to fight.

On the afternoon of that day, Feng Zhong led the main force to the city of Huaiyin. Xiang Bo and Xiang Sui and his son were reluctant to go out to greet him. As a result, they just took a rough look at the terrain. Feng Zhong immediately arranged the camp to arrange the camp, letting Xiang Sui army station at the west gate of Huaiyin, and from the main force stationed at the south gate, arranged a thousand troops stationed outside the east gate of Huaiyin. At the same time, five hundred soldiers were sent across the river to the north and guard the wharf to the north bank of the Huaihe River, without giving the Huaiyin Qin army a chance to cross the river and escape.

Seeing this scene, the young generals of the young army were of course confused and said to Feng Zhong: "General Feng, how can he arrange a camp like this? The tyrant Qin army trapped the lonely city and became a trapped beast. If our army besieged the city from all directions, it would be like forcing the tyrant Qin army in the city to the dead end, and the trapped beasts are still fighting. Isn't it even more difficult for our army to break the city again?"

"We should surround three and one missing." Xiang You couldn't help but say: "The tyrant Qin army in the city now has one road to Guangling. We should deliberately give up the south gate to leave a way for the tyrant Qin army, and then launch an attack on the city, so that the siege battle will be more confident!"

"If we let the tyrant Qin army run away, will we be beaten to revenge in vain?" Feng Zhong smiled and pointed to the flag of Xiang You camp and said, "Brother Xiang You forgot that in addition to siege the city this time, there is another purpose for you to avenge the last time you siege the city, and leave a way out for the tyrant Qin army to run away. How can we take revenge?"

Xiang You was speechless, Feng Zhongze waved his hand and said, "Just do this, divide his troops and set up a camp immediately, build a solid camp, and make a long-term plan!"

He could not resist Feng Zhong, and the generals of the Young Commander's army had to follow the order. As a result, he saw that the Young Commander's army divided his troops to besiege the city, and he did not even let go of the position on the north bank of the Huai River where the Qin army could not escape. Of course, the Qin army in Huaiyin City was noisy. The generals' faces were blue and black, and the soldiers looked sad. Everyone knew that this time they were doomed. After the city was broken, the defenders in the city were afraid that they would survive and were extremely pessimistic. Among the soldiers and civilians, there were even rumors that the Young Commander's army would massacre the city after the city broke.

Feng Zhong's tricks reached this point, and Xiang Bo of course could no longer bear it. Regardless of Zhang Liang's dissuasion, he immediately wrote a handwritten letter to Xiang Kang after returning to the camp, accusing Feng Zhong of all kinds of rebellious actions to his unfilial nephew, so that Xiang Kang knew what kind of thing he had used to preside over the war on the southern front of the Young Marshal's Army. Then he sent someone to send the letter overnight and shouted: "Feng Zhong's son, he is simply using the army of our Xiang family as a joke! He forced me to be so anxious that I directly killed him with one knife, seized military power and took charge of the army himself. What should I do if Xiang Kang could do, my uncle?!"

Zhang Liang did not stop Xiang Bo from talking nonsense this time, because Zhang Liang really couldn't see what Feng Zhong was selling this time. If Feng Zhong was really doing this, Zhang Liang would never stop Xiang Bo from seizing power by force and create an opportunity for himself to show his strength. However...

However, something unexpected happened to Zhang Liang. The next morning, Zhang Liang and Xiang Bo, who were bored all day long, walked around and relaxed outside the camp. In addition to seeing Feng Zhong sending his army to cut down wood nearby to build siege weapons, they suddenly saw a group of people walking out of Feng Zhong's camp, beating drums and music toward the south gate of Huaiyin. Zhang Liang and Xiang Bo were curious, and quickly rode the horse to check the situation. Then they saw it unexpectedly that Ma Pei, who had previously volunteered to come forward to persuade Feng Zhong to surrender the Huaiyin defenders, was wearing an official uniform, sitting high in a gorgeous carriage, surrounded by musicians, heading towards the south gate of Huaiyin with a smile on his face.

"What the hell is Feng Zhonger doing? Why did Ma Pei do such a big battle?"

Seeing this scene, Xiang Bo was of course two-year-old King Kong couldn't figure out the mind. He broke his head and couldn't understand what kind of Dali pills Feng Zhong sold in the gourd this time. However, Zhang Liang suddenly screamed, slapped his forehead heavily, and shouted in anger: "Gao! Why didn't I expect this?"

"I didn't think of anything in Zifang?" Xiang Bo asked quickly.

"I forgot that if I sent envoys to surrender directly, the tyrant Qin generals in Huaiyin City may have many concerns and may not be willing to surrender easily. After hesitation, recruiting surrender will not only take time and effort, but may also cause trouble and fail." Zhang Liang said with a wry smile: "But Feng Zhong deliberately made such a fool before, deliberately pushing the tyrant Qin army in Huaiyin City to death, and then suddenly release a way of life. The tyrant Qin army in Huaiyin must take this way of life."

Xiang Bo was speechless, but Zhang Liang turned his eyes to Feng Zhong's camp helplessly and murmured, "Feng Zhong is really just a farmer in Qianshou Village who has been farming for generations. It's just a common lobbyist trick. How could he be so whimsical and use it to fight and defeat the enemy? A rural villager? I, a Korean nobleman..., alas! He is so shameless!"

"Absolutely impossible to succeed! Absolutely!"
