Chapter 1393
Xiang Yu defeated Chen Qingzhi, and the morale that had been so excited was crushed. What's more troublesome is that under Chen Qingzhi's design, Xiang Yu was forced to retreat and lost three counties in a row.

For the three counties of Jiaozhi and Hepu, under the oppression of the situation, Xiang Yu could only give up, exchange space for time, and try his best to regain Cangwu County, which was previously defeated by Chen Qingzhi.

After all, if there is no way to take this place back, it is equivalent to being cut off from Jiaozhou and Jingnan.

Regarding this point, Chen Qingzhi was powerless to stop it.There is no way, there are only so many people under him, and they can't stop it even if they want to.Can only let go of Cangwu, and cooperate with Xu Shiji's main force to take over other sites first.

No matter how big a piece of fat is, the most important thing is to be optimistic about the piece that can be eaten first. Only on the basis of doing this well can you plan for more.

At this time, Xiang Yu's military strength was far less than that of Xu Shiji's weakness, which was magnified, and he had no choice but to tear down the east wall to make up for the west wall, squeezing the strength of other places.

And this includes the Longqie Department located in Jingnan.

In particular, Zhu Yuanzhang's forces in Yangzhou are heading north, and there is a tendency to further increase investment in Yuan Shu. After all, the war against Yuan Shu has achieved great results. It is not surprising to increase investment at this time to obtain greater benefits!

Although the terrain of the Central Plains is flat and it is in the place of the Fourth World War, it has always been synonymous with prosperity and dense population.The more you can take down, the greater the help to improve your strength.

Of course, Li Xiang had no intention of stopping Zhu Yuanzhang from seizing Yuan Shu's territory.If he has been hiding in the Jianghuai area, he will be in trouble. If he dares to come out, it means that he has a weakness!Li Xiang was not afraid that Zhu Yuanzhang would come out to the north, but he was afraid that he would not come out at all.

For Li Xiang, if he had the opportunity to put his battle with Zhu Yuanzhang in Yuzhou, it would be better than putting both of them in Yangzhou.

Just like for Liu Che, Li Xiang is not afraid that Liu Che will attack him actively, but he is afraid that this guy will be determined to retreat to the end.It's better to have a chance to fight outside the turtle's shell than to crack its shell first!

After developing his strength to the level of Li Xiang, what he is concerned about is no longer the gains and losses of a city or a pool, but the overall direction and the development of the general situation.Only by controlling the overall situation can we grasp the future.

And it was precisely because of this, because Zhu Yuanzhang put on an appearance of intensifying his efforts against Yuan Shu, that Xiang Yu made up his mind to draw more troops from Long Qie.

However, as Xiang Yu's power in Jingnan became more and more empty, the princes who should show their fangs finally showed their fangs.

Liu Xiu was the fastest one. After all, the territories of the two sides were close to each other, and they took the land of three counties in a row with all their strength.

Zhu Yuanzhang's movements will be a little slower. This does not mean that Zhu Yuanzhang's reaction is slow. In fact, Zhu Yuanzhang moved his troops northward in order to tempt Xiang Yu to transfer troops from Jingnan. This time the journey will be longer. That's why he was slower than Liu Xiu.

However, Zhu Yuanzhang struck even harder. Instead of taking Lingling and Guiyang, he first attacked Xiang Yu in the last few counties of Wuling County.In this way, Zhu Yuanzhang completely isolated the power of Liu Xiu and Xiang Yu.

Unless Liu Xiu attacks Zhu Yuanzhang at this time, he will lose any direction of expansion in the south.However, Liu Xiu at this time is obviously far from having the ability and strength to attack Zhu Yuanzhang.

After all, comparing Liu Xiu's current strength with Zhu Yuanzhang's, there is indeed a world of difference.Liu Xiu took action against Zhu Yuanzhang when he was not strong enough, because he was afraid that Zhu Yuanzhang would not destroy him?Therefore, if you are not strong enough, you have to endure what you should, and when you should follow your heart, you must follow your heart!
For Zhu Yuanzhang's actions, Liu Xiu could only smile helplessly. Should he be resentful that Zhu Yuanzhang kept blocking his way, or should he thank the other party for his importance!
Of course, the fact that he was able to win three counties may not be able to digest Liu Xiu's current situation. After all, he originally only owned four counties, and those four counties were just won.

Zhu Yuanzhang was willing to keep Liu Xiu at the beginning because in Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes, Liu Xiu still had value.However, Zhu Yuanzhang will not let Liu Xiu develop further.This is a wolf, if it grows stronger, it is very likely to bite itself back.Therefore, if you are willing to keep him, you must keep him, but you must also control him within a certain range.

After Wuling, there are Lingling and Guiyang. In fact, a small part of the land here was already in the hands of Zhu Yuanzhang. Everything is in Zhu Yuanzhang's hands.

Zhu Yuanzhang's offensive was like thunder, and Long Qi was no match for Zhu Yuanzhang at all. In a critical moment, Yu Ji went to the front to beat the drums for the whole army, which greatly boosted the morale of Xiang's army, and blocked the Yangzhou army's offensive for a while.

But this method can only be used for a while after all, not for a lifetime.You can stop Zhu Yuanzhang once, but it is impossible to stop Zhu Yuanzhang three times.

After all, compared to Zhu Yuanzhang's military talent, none of the generals of the Xiang family in Jingnan can compare with him.In this battle, the most powerful general is undoubtedly Lu Ya.

Seven generals including Ji Anbang, Wei Bao, Yao Gang, Chen Fei, and He Tingyu were killed by the flying knives. Three generals including Xing Daorong and Han Cunbao were decapitated by the knives in their hands. The two generals of Bai Xiaode were captured alive by him.

Many of them did not fight Lu Ya head-on at all, but were killed by a flying knife coming from nowhere during the process of defending the city. I don't know who made it.

It wasn't until Bai Xiaode went out to fight and was captured alive that he didn't even find out his name until this time.And when she learned that the name of the person who played was Lu Ya, Yu Ji immediately made a decision not to allow anyone to play, and everything was defensive.

Lu Ya, maybe other people will only think that this is a newcomer after hearing this name.However, the same name is different in Yu Ji's ears.Among the Conferred Gods, those whose strength is qualified to surpass this person are really very few.

It's just that the room was leaking and it was raining overnight. The current situation of the Xiang family was already bad enough, but the sky seemed to really refuse to let them go. In the case of repeated defeats in the battle, another shocking news hit their heads.
