Chapter 24 3. Great Qin Rogue Empire

When I met Liu Bang in Xue County, Liu Bang was forty-nine years old, and Xiang Yu was just twenty-five years old. Xiang Yu's age is exactly the golden age for rushing across the battlefield.And Liu Bang, with his old arms and legs, was able to command battles on horseback. Not to mention the nutritional conditions in the Qin and Han Dynasties, even in modern society, it is surprising.In short, no matter how strong Liu Bang's body is, he is still an old man who has passed his vitality, and he can't compare with Xiang Yu, who is full of blood. In Xiang Yu's eyes, this Liu Ji from Pei County is just a weird old man.But Xiang Liang valued Liu Bang very much, which can be seen from his support for Liu Bang.

Xiang Liang readily agreed to Liu Bang's request to borrow troops, and gave Liu Bang five thousand soldiers on the spot, and at the same time sent him ten generals of the rank of five doctors.The fifth doctor is not an official position, but a title. At that time, Qin State set up a 20th-class title, which is similar to the current department-level investigator.It can be seen that Xiang Liang attaches great importance to Liu Bang. The history books didn't say why Xiang Liang attached so much importance to Liu Bang, but after deliberation, Xiang Liang should have glanced at Liu Bang, and was startled immediately, thinking who is this old man, why did he come to this war-torn battlefield to cause trouble?Obviously, this old arm and old leg was also beaten on the battlefield.But at that time, the old guy represented the orientation of public opinion, because China is an agricultural society, and the most important thing is to respect the elderly. Once something is approved by the elderly, it means that you have moral resources.Therefore, Xiang Liang felt great compassion, and worried that the old man Liu Bang would be beaten to death, so he gave more soldiers and horses to protect Liu Bang.

With Xiang Liang's 5,000 troops, plus the original 9,000, Liu Bang's army suddenly expanded to 14,000.14,000 people are trivial, Liu Bang's ability to lead troops can command up to 100,000 soldiers.With 14,000 people, he once again sent his troops to attack Fengyi. Yong Chi, who was guarding the city, couldn't stand it anymore, so he had to abandon the city and flee to the state of Wei. Yong Chi was originally from Peixian County, but he was forced to flee to Wei State. He must have regretted it very much in his heart-this is indeed the case. After that, he wandered for a period of time and returned to Liu Bang's banner.This is something for later, let's not mention it for now.

After regaining Fengyi, Liu Bang's confidence increased greatly.Since then, Fengyi has become Liu Bang's biggest capital, and he is also very grateful to Xiang Liang for this.But with Yong Chi's lesson, the people staying in Fengyi this time must be extremely reliable. Who should be sent to guard Fengyi?Liu Bang looked behind him, and Ren Ao, the former jailer of Pei County, came into his sight. Ren Ao's loyalty has been severely tested.At the beginning, Liu Bang abandoned his post and fled privately, which caused Lu Zhi to be arrested and imprisoned, where he was humiliated.It was Ren Ao who rushed out at a time of crisis, wounded officials, and protected Lu's pheasant.Handing over Fengyi to Ren Ao will definitely reassure Liu Bang.

Since then, Ren Ao really lived up to Liu Bang's expectations, and he guarded this Fengyi city for two years, eliminating Liu Bang's worries. At this time, Xiang Liang finally tracked down the accurate information about Chen Sheng and learned that Chen Sheng was really dead.So Xiang Liang spread his message to all rebels, gathered in Xuedi, and held the first joint meeting of rebel leaders to discuss the issue of rebuilding a unified command center. Leaders of various rebel armies rushed to Xue County one after another, and Liu Bang also came.At the same time, there was also Fan Zeng, a 70-year-old man who came all the way from Chao County.

Fan Zeng, he witnessed the great process of the entire Warring States period, and witnessed how Qin Shihuang defeated the six kingdoms and unified the world.He watched the whole seventy years without saying a word, countless vicissitudes of life, and saw that he was quiet and self-knowledge for a long time, and his wisdom was deep. When he appeared on the stage, he shocked everyone. Fan Zeng said: "Chen wins and loses for sure. Qin destroyed the six kingdoms. Chu is the most innocent. Since King Huai entered Qin and did not turn against him, Chu people have pitied him to this day. Therefore, Nan Gong said, "Although Chu has three families, Chu must die when Qin is destroyed." Today The first thing Chen Sheng did was to stand on his own without establishing an empress of Chu, and his power will not last long. Now that the emperor has risen from Jiangdong, the generals of Chu Fengwu are all vying to be attached to the emperor.

Ginger is old and spicy, and demon is old and mature.Fan Zeng finally deserved to sit and watch for seventy years, explaining the root cause of Chen Sheng's defeat in one word.Chen Sheng's defeat was due to the fact that he didn't set up a more flamboyant banner, but allowed himself to stand on the tide of history. As a result, when Qin soldiers went out to cut the flag, they could only chase after him and Chen Sheng.After three chops and two hacks, the skull was chopped off.In short, there is a price to be paid for pulling the wind. If you want to get more success with a small price, you must have enough forbearance.

When Fan Zeng said these words, he actually implied that Xiang Liang had to endure first.Xiang Liang accepted Fan Zeng's suggestion and sent people to find the descendants of King Huai of Chu. In fact, the King Huai of Chu mentioned by Fan Zeng is a rather funny figure in history. Simply put, Qu Yuan, the great patriotic poet, was so angry that King Huai of Chu threw himself into the river. In the era of King Huai of Chu, the state of Chu was the most powerful, and was promoted by the six kingdoms of Shandong as the leader of the vertical treaty, leading the six kingdoms to fight against the strong Qin.So Qin State sent Zhang Yi, a strategist, to deceive King Chuhuai, saying that as long as King Chuhuai broke off diplomatic relations with other countries, Qin State would cede six hundred miles to Chu State.Qu Yuan advised King Huai not to be fooled, but King Huai of Chu refused to listen, and really severed diplomatic relations with other countries.Then Zhang Yi changed his words and said that what he promised King Huai of Chu was his own six-mile land, not Qin's six hundred-mile land.Then Qin State launched an attack on Chu State again, and the other countries hated King Huai of Chu for nothing, and stood by, making Chu State extremely miserable.

Later, the State of Qin deceived King Huai of Chu to visit the State of Qin for a friendly visit. Qu Yuan failed to stop him, so he threw himself into the river in anger.King Huai of Chu went to Qin and was detained.Soon after, King Huai of Chu escaped to the State of Zhao, but the State of Zhao did not dare to take him in, so he fled to the State of Wei, but was not taken in either.Then Qin Bing caught up and dragged him back, King Huai of Chu was furious. But the Chu people think that King Huai of Chu is a bit stupid, but he is kind, kind, and honest.The state of Qin took advantage of these advantages of King Huai of Chu and used hooligan methods to kill King Huai of Chu and the state of Chu.Therefore, although the Chu State was subjugated, the people were dissatisfied and believed that Qin State's victory by hooligan means was not a joke.

In short, King Huai of Chu has the deepest impression in the hearts of Chu people, and has become a symbol of Chu's sadness.If the descendants of King Huai are established as kings, their appeal will be far and wide. Everyone found Xiong Xin, the grandson of King Huai of Chu. This poor grandson is herding sheep for others. When the king of Chu was established, Chen Ying was the first to be granted the title of Shangzhu Kingdom—this is actually the title that Xiang Liang thought he had been granted by Chen Sheng before.Chen Ying also got the fiefs of five counties.The reason why Chen Ying was named was because he didn't have the slightest desire for profit. If the 20,000 followers said they would give it to Xiang Liang, they would give it to Xiang Liang. No one can compare to this kind of lofty integrity.Just because Chen Ying does not fight, the world cannot compete with him. This is the highest law of gaining benefits in the world.

Xiang Liang named himself Lord Wu Xin.This title means that he is very good at fighting, and he is faithful. Seeing that everyone has rewards, Zhang Liang couldn't sit still, so he put Liu Bang aside and stood up to recommend Han Cheng, the son of South Korea, and asked Xiang Liang to help South Korea restore the country.Now five of the six countries have recovered, and only South Korea has not yet recovered, which is unfair. Xiang Liang refused to help, but he couldn't bear the sympathy, so he played a small game and only gave Han Wang and Zhang Liangqian people to take back the old territory of South Korea by themselves.Zhang Liang and Han Cheng went, and really took down a city or two, but the Qin Brigade came, and Han Wang and Zhang Liang were reduced to a small group of guerrillas in the Yingchuan area. Next, Qin general Zhang Han showed his talents and staged a wonderful solo show.
