Chapter 26 4. Efang Palace and Overlord of Western Chu

A rogue is a pass for a rogue, and Liu Bang ran away, and Fan Zeng never had a good night's sleep or food.After living for seventy years, Fan Zeng finally understood a truth: youth is not necessarily capital, and old age is not necessarily inferior. Liu Bang is sophisticated and cunning like an old fox;He is also a military coach, so why does Liu Bang obey Zhang Liang, but why can't Xiang Yu listen to my advice from Fan Zeng? It's going to rain, my mother is going to get married, let him go? However, the road ahead is long, and Xiang Yu's road to the emperor will be so lonely and dangerous. Except for Fan Zeng, Xiang Yu basically has no close friends. If Fan Zeng abandons him, there will be only one result, and Xiang Yu will lose his tame The beast master's bull will rush towards the cliff even faster.

Companion to a king is like companion to a tiger. It is dangerous to follow him, and it is even more dangerous not to follow him. Is this the arrangement of heaven?Fan Zeng was confused.No, as long as there is still a breath, you must not give up resistance.Liu San, in order to fight for breath, I have no choice but to fight to the end with you, a big rascal. Depressed and hesitant, Fan Zeng regained his fighting spirit and returned to Xiang Yu's side.Fan Zeng figured out another reason. Since the road is mostly dark, he should just go straight to the end. After living for so many years, he still wants to visit the legendary Xianyang City twice in his lifetime.

Within a few days, Fan Zeng entered Xianyang City with Xiang Yu's army. In Xianyang City, disaster is about to strike.For the greatest and most glorious city in the world at that time, Xiang Yu was just a spark of revenge, a disaster from heaven, and with his arrival, everything here would be wiped out! For Xiang Yu, Xianyang City will only remind him of the once invincible Qin Shihuang, the helplessness of the princes of the six countries who left their homes and fell into a different place, and the swarms of laborers at the foot of Lishan who were driven to the fire to be slaughtered like locusts!The past is over, count the heroes and tyrants, and look at the present, Comrade Yingzheng, let history remember this moment, I will use my hero and cruelty to PK your greatness and tyranny.

Xiang Yu held up the torch and long sword that slaughtered the city high, and the shiny back of the sword was coated with a kind of poison, that is hatred!Filled with hatred, Xiang Yu broke into the palace, and the first person to kill was Qin Ziying. In the end, he killed all good and bad people, men and women, old people and children. The hell on earth reappeared ferociously, Yan Luo and the devil once again rampaged, and human beings' right to survival was once again challenged and trampled on unprecedentedly!This is the saddest long time for the Chinese people. Evil is easy to be evil, and violence is used to control violence. They are like just out of the tiger's den, and then trapped in the wolf's den. The world is narrow, where is not hell?

Speaking justice in a land where there is no justice is like speaking morality to a wild beast, and it can only be futile.Kill, burn, rob, flee, cry, punish, destroy.There is no rebirth without destruction, let all the souls of the world wait for redemption in the purgatory of fire and iron. In the catastrophe of this massacre, even the luxurious Qin Dynasty imperial palace was not spared. Xiang Yu threw a fire on the roof, and the Efang Palace burned fiercely, and the embers would not go out for three months. Afang Palace is another crazy masterpiece after Yingzheng renovated the Great Wall. When he conquered the six countries, every time he destroyed a country, he would send people to replicate the palace of the country he was in to the foot of Lishan Mountain and beside the Wei River.Later generations recorded Efang Palace, a world-class miraculous architectural complex that disappeared, and the most perfect one is Tang Dumu's "Afang Palace Fu". Although Xiao Du's articles are exaggerated, they are majestic, magnificent, and elegant, allowing us to travel through time and space. Let's go back to the glorious history of Efang Palace.

Efang Palace: Located in Xianyang, it is named after the place where it was built. Area: more than 300 miles covered. Scale and characteristics: Tall and majestic, there are palaces in the palace and buildings outside the building. Permanent population: descendants of nobles from the six countries and their court ladies. Comrade Qin Shihuang Yingzheng tried his best to build the Efang Palace, not just for the sake of ostentation.After he unified the six countries, the country was restructured into a system of prefectures and counties, and all the nobles of the six countries lost their land. In order to prevent them from making a comeback, he simply moved them all into the Afang Palace for leisure.

As a result, such a terrible and huge life scene appeared in Xianyang Palace: in the morning, when the maids sat in front of the vanity mirror and undone their hair, it seemed as if the sky was covered with dark clouds; A layer of oily suspension appeared.What's even more exaggerated is that the climate in the first palace is different, the maids in the east are sweating like rain, while the ladies in the west are breathing like wind. We have to sigh that Qin Shihuang deserves to be the greatest philanthropist on earth. To support such a large group of dudes who only eat, drink and play every day, they will eat up all the gold and silver.But the wool came from the sheep. Qin Shihuang had already plundered all the rare treasures of the six countries and transported them into Xianyang City to pile them up like a mountain. It is not a problem at all for these property to support several noble descendants.

However, in China's thousands of years of history, few world-class great buildings can be found. The Qin Dynasty regime had an enmity with Xiang Yu. Why did Xiang Yu have trouble with Afang Palace? In fact, the reason is very simple. I can’t take this thing away, and I don’t want to keep it to enjoy it, and I don’t want to leave it to Liu Bang, so I have to burn it as evidence of Daqin’s crimes. Thought dominates action, character determines destiny, and any external appearance of a human individual is closely related to his living environment and growth background. Now, when we look back at Xiang Yu's indiscriminate killing, it is actually related to the suffering and cultivation he experienced in his early years. The sense of hatred in the world has a great relationship.

Before rebelling against Qin, both Liu Bang and Xiang Yu had witnessed Qin Shihuang's dragon face at different times and places. At that time, Liu Bang couldn't help but uttered such admiration: a man should be like this!It means that a big man should enjoy such a glorious life of an emperor. However, Xiang Yu uttered such an angry roar at the time: He can replace him!This remark is jokingly said, Qin Shihuang, the bird man, I can lift him down and sit in his place. Sima Qian didn't dare to sloppily record the two unusual words said by these two unusual men in "Historical Records".The fact is also as they said in the early years, now the same Xianyang city, in the eyes of the two men, the weather and psychological hints are very different. Liu Bangxi enjoys it, but is reluctant to part with it; Come with iron to prove the overlord is invincible!

Character is destiny, and it is true. After completing the Sanguang policy, Xiang Yu was about to withdraw from Xianyang. At this time, someone suggested to him that Guanzhong has a magnificent scenery and rich products. The person who advised Xiang Yu was surnamed Han, his name is unknown, and he was known as Han Sheng.In ancient China, as long as you are a scholar, no matter whether you read good books or bad books, Confucianism or Yin Yang, you are all called students.Xiang Yu looked back at Guanzhong again. What Han Sheng said was right. Guanzhong is dangerous, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the land is rich.

It's a pity that Mr. Han didn't mention it early, and he didn't mention it later. He only mentioned it after the palace was burned. Xianyang City was basically wiped out, and there was not even a decent place to live. This dilapidated place is still left Why, let's copy the guy and leave quickly. Therefore, Xiang Yu said to Han Sheng confidently: "If you don't return to your hometown after being rich, it's like walking at night in a beautiful suit. Why bother?" When Han Sheng heard this, he immediately fainted.How can this be said by a hero who travels across the world and regards the world as his home? How different is it from a nouveau riche who makes a living out of robbery and murder?It's true that when Xiang Yu thought about it, Han Sheng laughed!Han Sheng simply couldn't stand Xiang Yu's idiot political mind, so in a moment of enthusiasm, he said something crazy to Xiang Yu: Huh, look at you like a monkey! (Wash the monkey and crown). Xiang Yu was taken aback for a moment, and then became furious.Little boy, do you dare to call me a monkey? !Without saying a word, he threw that lovely and respectable Mr. Han into the pot, and cooked it into a bitter broth on earth! I heard that when people are extremely angry or extremely proud, their IQ and EQ are frighteningly low.For a long time, Xiang Yu was either burned by the flames of revenge, or dazzled by the ecstasy of victory. Even a well-intentioned critic of a scholar should use such vicious methods to kill him, which is really detrimental to the image of a hero. Although Han Sheng died unjustly, Xiang Yu felt that it was not a pity at all.In his view, heroes are also human beings, and it is only natural for Xiang Yu to want to show off his clothes when he returns home. Xiang Yu was right, the problem is, he came up with an extremely wrong idea at the wrong time and in the wrong place!This kind of mistake has dug a big burial pit for himself invisibly! Burn and burn, kill and kill, it is useless to say anything.After massacring the city, Xiang Yu had to concentrate on dealing with one person, that is Comrade Liu Bang, the king of escape. In terms of cracking the soil to seal the king, Liu Bang must not be allowed to take advantage of it.After joint research and research, Xiang Yu and Fan Zeng finally worked out an excellent strategy to deal with Liu Bang, which was to suggest that King Huai of Chu repent and tear up the contract, and take back the damned saying that the first to enter the pass is the king. Xiang Yu and Fan Zeng's move is called killing three birds with one stone.If King Huai of Chu can take back his promise, not only will Liu Bang not be able to be named King of Guanzhong, but Xiang Yu can also shirk his responsibility, and he can fulfill his promise to make Zhang Han King of Yong! That's great, let's do it.So Xiang Yu immediately sent someone to King Huai of Chu to deliver a message, telling him to repent, or he would go away without food. Xiang Yu thought that King Huai of Chu would definitely follow suit. If he was disobedient, it would be more than just a matter of brain damage.However, something unexpected happened.After King Huai of Chu received Xiang Yu's message, he didn't even think about it, so he replied to him directly: How can you take back the words you say and the water you poured out, and everything will be done according to the oral agreement that you have made! This is really a man who is not afraid of death. He dares to fight so fearlessly when his life is in the hands of others! Xiang Yu immediately patted the table and yelled at King Huai of Chu through the air: Your King Huai was granted by my Xiang family, why don't you cooperate with us?I have contributed the most to destroying the Qin Dynasty, and now everything should be changed to my command! Xiang Yu decided to change his mind, and went to repair King Huai of Chu before repairing Liu Bang.Since King Huai of Chu is a troublesome thing, it is best to let him get out of Pengcheng, so that he will never come back. Therefore, Xiang Yu came up with a creative method of rectifying the king at the expense of others and benefiting himself. First, he deliberately promoted and respected King Huai as the Emperor of Righteousness, and then told King Huai of Chu that the ancients called emperors who owned thousands of miles of land and lived in rivers and rivers. Shangliu, in that case, you should go back to live in Chenzhou on the upper reaches of the Yangtze River. I heard that the ecological environment there is good, and the air has not been polluted by the war. Chenzhou, which is today's Chenzhou City, Hunan Province.More than 2,000 years ago, Chenzhou was an undeveloped and wild land. It was a hell on earth, full of misty mountains, birds and beasts, and it was also a place where bandits fled and haunted. If you live here for a long time, you can only use the land as your Prison, using water as tears, crying and wiping away tears, it's too late. Xiang Yu is not called emperor at all, but exiled.From then on, King Huai of Chu could no longer be called King Huai of Chu, but should be called Emperor Yi.In fact, Emperor Yi, you don't have to complain. If you see how Xiang Yu manipulates Liu Bang below, you will feel that you are a lucky one. In Xiang Yu's view, since there is a useless so-called emperor of righteousness on top, he cannot be called emperor, but can only be king.If he wants to be king, he must be the biggest king in the world. The title he proclaimed himself is Overlord of Western Chu, and his capital will be Pengcheng. Then, Xiang Yu and Fan Zeng did some serious research, and finally drew up a seemingly perfect list of kings for the princes. In this list, except for his and Yidi's fiefs, the rest of the land was cut into ten parts. Eight pieces, each of which was given to a king. Liu Bang also got a piece of meat. He didn't get Guanzhong, which he had wanted for a long time, but Hanzhong and Bashu two counties, which were the most annoying in the world. Xiang Yu named Liu Bang the King of Han for the following reasons: I heard that Bashu was once a good place for the Qin Dynasty to exile political prisoners and death row prisoners. I also heard that it is like spring all year round and has beautiful scenery.I named you King of Han just to let you take care of the environment there, so you can spend your old age there peacefully. Beautiful language can never hide the heart of a poisonous scorpion. Anyone with a little historical knowledge knows that Bashu was the worst land in the world at that time. hell. There is a proverb that can strengthen our impression of Shu: before the world is in chaos, Shu will be in chaos first, and the world will be governed before Shu is ruled.Li Bai, a great poet of the Tang Dynasty, once wrote a famous "The Road to Shu is Difficult". In his poem, he lamented: "The road to Shu is as difficult as going up to the blue sky!"In such a place, the high mountains block it, and the birds are hard to cross. As long as a person enters it, it is no less than a meat bun beating a dog, and there is no way to return to the Central Plains alive. However, the matter is far from over, and the worst is yet to come. Fan Zeng carried forward his excellent style of never doing anything and doing everything, and helped Xiang Yu cut Guanzhong into three pieces and gave them to three generals of the Qin Dynasty respectively. Zhang Han got one piece and was named King Yong; King Sai; Dong Yi won a piece and made him King Zhai.The land of Qin was divided into three parts. From then on, Guanzhong was also called the Land of Three Qins.Judging from the map, Liu Bang's Hanzhong land was ruthlessly besieged by Zhang Han and other three fiefdoms, making it impossible to go east.At first glance, Hanzhong is the sky prison, Liu Bang is the dog in the water, and Sanqin is like a strong fence on three sides.Taking ten thousand steps back, if Liu Bang was about to rush out like a mad dog, Xiang Yu would have heard the sound and rushed to wipe out the Han army before he reached the third checkpoint. From a purely military point of view, this arrangement is flawless and impeccable. If you don't praise Fan Zeng, you will have a conscience.I don't beat you, I don't scold you, I just let God torture you alive.Liu San, just accept your fate, who told you not to give birth sooner or later, but you just caught the last train and met Mr. Fan Zeng, a master of pranksters. What's more amazing is that Xiang Yu imitated the method of cutting flesh in Guanzhong and cut the old land of Qi into three pieces. After the Sanqin, there was another Sanqi.The original king of Qi, that is, Tian Fu, the son of Tian Dan, only got the worst piece, and was renamed the king of Jiaodong; General Tian Du; another one is Jibei King Tian An. Eighteen pieces of big meat, eighteen kings, those who picked up the fat laughed, those who picked up the thin ones and those who had no share, they either swallowed their words or went on the road in desolation.However, there were three people who immediately expressed strong dissatisfaction with Xiang Yu's list of kings. They were Liu Bang, the king of Han, Chen Yu, a laid-off worker, and Tian Rong, a big boss of Qi! A new chaos among princes is about to begin!
