In fact, at this time, Xiang Yu is no different from the one who is at the end of his rope.
Among the counties in Jiaozhou, if Gaoliang County is really captured by Song Que, then there will only be Cangwu County that he can control in Jiaozhou.
After all, although Xu Shiji had only captured Jiaozhi, Yulin, and Hepu counties for the time being, Jiuzhen County and Rinan County were themselves located in the south of Jiaozhi County, and at this time they had been completely isolated from other forces by Jiaozhi County.
It can be said that Xu Shiji just didn't take these two counties for the time being, but he could take them whenever he wanted! This is equivalent to putting meat in your mouth, you can eat it however you want! Eat whenever you want!
The last Zhuya County in Jiaozhou after these counties is located south of Hepu County and Gaoliang County. If Xiang Yu loses Gaoliang County, he will naturally lose control of Zhuya County.
Zhu Yuanzhang's behavior is no different from picking peaches! They were fighting life and death at the front, while Zhu Yuanzhang was behind to seize territory while his troops were empty.
Naturally, Liu Che's side would not be happy with this. How could they fight life and death, but in the end they had to give Zhu Yuanzhang half of the benefits, or even more than half of the benefits?
Naturally, they were not willing to continue their desperate attack as before. The harder they attack, the more they help Zhu Yuanzhang.
Of course, it is definitely impossible to continue to delay time on the front line. With so many troops and horses dispatched, the daily food and grass alone is an astronomical figure. The final decision was whether to fight or draw, or to come up with a charter as soon as possible.
However, Liu Che clearly realized that Zhu Yuanzhang was not Xiang Yu. It was not an easy task to defeat Zhu Yuanzhang, and it was impossible to start a war immediately. It must be fully prepared. Before Xiang Yu is eliminated, it is definitely not a good time for the two of them to take action first!
For the same reason, Zhu Yuanzhang was not willing to have a direct armed conflict with Liu Che at this time. If there is a direct armed conflict at this time, Zhu Yuanzhang will probably be the loser! If we want to start a war, we have to wait a little longer!
Therefore, if fighting is not possible for the time being, we can only discuss it on the negotiation table.
In the end, the two people reluctantly reached an agreement. On the most important territory division, the two people used Xiang Yu's life as a bet. Whoever could win Xiang Yu's head would win Cangwu County and Zhuya. The last two counties.
At this point, after Liu Che and Zhu Yuanzhang reached a tentative agreement, the final attack on Xiang Yu finally began.
However, both Zhu Yuanzhang and Liu Che knew very well that the so-called agreement this time was just to give them a step down to prevent them from fighting before Xiang Yu was eliminated. But once Xiang Yu dies and one party takes Xiang Yu's head, will the other party really give up these two counties?
In the end, it still comes down to who has the bigger fist!
Regarding the land in the south, Zhu Yuanzhang and Liu Che would not give in to each other at all!
………………………
Jingnan.
"This place is no longer defensible. General Long Qie must meet with the king as soon as possible!" Yu Ji, who looked heroic in her military uniform, said to Long Qie firmly.
After all, it was a relatively formal occasion. Therefore, when Yu Ji addressed Xiang Yu, she definitely could not use their usual private address, but also needed to use the title "King".
At this time, Yu Ji did not look like a woman, but like Long Qie, like a general.
After Zhu Liu temporarily reached an agreement on Xiang Yu's issue, Zhu Yuanzhang was no longer interested in continuing to play house games with Yu Ji here, and really started to get serious.
With insufficient troops, the Xiang clan suffered repeated defeats here, and the cities were lost one after another.
Therefore, Yu Ji decisively suggested giving up here and going to Jiaozhou to meet Xiang Yu first. At this time, Zhu Yuanzhang's troops have not officially reached here. If it is delayed for a while, if Zhu Yuanzhang's troops come forward, they will not be able to leave at that time if they want to! Even if they want to leave here, they have to ask Zhu Yuanzhang if he agrees!
And here, Long Qie is still the general who Xiang Yu left behind before going to Jiaozhou. Whether to fight or retreat will ultimately have to be approved by Long Qie, and Yu Ji cannot make the decision alone.
"But..." Obviously, even if Yu Ji made such a suggestion, Long Qie still wanted to object instinctively.
After all, Xiang Yu entrusted him with such an important task when he left, but if he left Jing Nan to Zhu Yuanzhang, how could Long Qie have the face to see Xiang Yu again in the future!
However, Long Qie had just spoken. After Yu Ji noticed Long Qie's objection, she no longer gave him a chance to speak. Instead, she immediately said, "General Long, from the king to the generals. The whole family is here, if Zhu Yuanzhang attacks, how will the king get along even if he is far away in Jiaozhou?"
"Perhaps General Long Qie is confident that he can defeat Zhu Yuanzhang?" When she said the last sentence, Yu Ji's tone became tougher and even had an aggressive tone.
As he said, if Zhu Yuanzhang attacks him and controls all the families of generals, big and small, from Xiang Yu down to the bottom, Xiang Yu will inevitably be controlled by Zhu Yuanzhang.
Even more seriously, at that time, will the generals below still be loyal to Xiang Yu? Of course, some people will still choose to be loyal, but more people will definitely give up resistance, and it is not even ruled out that a small number of people will start backstabbing at this time.
After all, not everyone in this world is a saint, nor is everyone free from desires and selfless.
These generals below naturally have their own reasons for seeking refuge with various princes. Some are for fame, some are for profit, some are for power, some are for money, and some of them may be for self-realization or self-realization. It’s about realizing your ambitions and talents.
But since they want something, when Xiang Yu is already on the verge of collapse, and their families are in the hands of others, are these people still willing to continue to be loyal to Xiang Yu? It’s probably still impossible to do this!
To put it more directly, when you are not enough to satisfy the demands of the generals under you, then there is already a basis for betrayal!
Of course, those who want to gain a reputation for loyalty are naturally an exception! Although in ancient times, there was still quite a market for this thing!
"I!...I am no match for Zhu Yuanzhang!" Long Qie said dejectedly.
Like Xiang Yu, Long Qie is also an extremely proud person. In his era, besides Xiang Yu, who else could he put in his eyes? Even Han Xin was not taken seriously by Long Qie, although Long Qie also tasted the bitter fruit of despising Han Xin in the end.
However, it is not an easy thing to get a person with such an extremely proud personality to admit that he is inferior to others. It can be seen that during this period of time, Long Qie suffered a big blow from Zhu Yuanzhang!
