Fu Qin starts with a plan

Chapter 356 Must find a way to get rid of Liu Bang

"Yafu, what's wrong with you?"

After calming down, Xiang Yu looked at Fan Zeng suspiciously.

Fan Zeng took a deep breath, looked back at Xiang Yu solemnly, and said, "General, don't treat Liu Bang carelessly!"

Ok?
Can't you treat Liu Bang carelessly?

Xiang Yu frowned slightly, apparently feeling even more puzzled by Fan Zeng's endless words.

Aren't you talking about the messenger Sima?
Why did Yafu suddenly involve Liu Bang?
And didn't that guy Liu Bang come to the banquet honestly?

After thinking for a while, Xiang Yu asked deeply: "Yafu, what exactly are you trying to say?"

"Hey!"

Seeing that Xiang Yu still didn't understand what he meant, Fan Zeng sighed helplessly, and said in a low voice: "General, I originally thought that Liu Bang had only two choices, one is to receive a letter from the general and come to the banquet non-stop ;

The second is to completely ignore the general's message and refuse to go to the banquet! "

"If this is the case, the old man is not worried, because it shows that Liu Bang is a short-sighted person, but now it seems that this is not the case!"

Speaking of this, Fan Zeng's tone became serious.

And Xiang Yu still didn't seem to understand Fan Zeng's meaning, but he didn't ask Fan Zeng's reason in public, but just waved at Jiang Chao; "Drag Sima, the messenger, and wait for him to be dealt with. The rest of the people, go outside first and wait!"

As soon as these words came out, Jiang Chao immediately responded and dragged the messenger Sima down.

But the rest of the princes were stunned.

Anyway, people like myself are also princes of one side, how can we recruit them to come, and wave them away?
This feather is too domineering!
Although the princes were indignant at Xiang Yu's words and deeds, Xiang Yu's deterrence was unstoppable, so after only a moment's hesitation, the princes left the army tent in despair.

When only Fan Zeng and a few confidant generals were left in the army tent, Xiang Yu asked Fan Zeng again: "Yafu, what concerns do you have, why don't you express it clearly?"

"Yu'er, if Liu Bang arrives as soon as possible after receiving your letter, it means that he is timid and fearful, not enough to accomplish great things!"

Fan Zeng said, glanced at the generals, stroked his beard and said: "If he ignores your general's orders and thinks that hundreds of thousands of mobs under him can sweep the world, this is a reckless behavior, and it shows that he has nothing to worry about. !"

"pity."

He paused, and continued: "It's a pity that he actually prepared a gift for you, and it took such a long time, it shows that he is weighing the pros and cons!"

"What's the difference in weighing the pros and cons?" Xiang Yu asked with a frown.

Fan Zeng shook his head and sighed: "The decision made after weighing the pros and cons shows that this person is brave and resourceful!"

"This"

"Yu'er, you are very talented in military affairs, but you are not as good as Liu Bang in political affairs!"

"Yafu said I'm not as good as Liu Bang?" Xiang Yu was surprised.

Fan Zeng said indifferently: "In the struggle for the world, those who try to make a name for themselves will gain nothing in the end, and only those who are pragmatic can aspire to the top!"

"Yafu thinks I'm not pragmatic?"

"The Xiang family rose during the chaos, and the so-called prestige is mostly false. Yu'er may wish to think about it. When your uncle Xiang Bo was in power, how many people followed him, but when he was defeated, how many people helped him?"

"To be blindly obsessed with power is absurd! Although Liu Bang gathers the crowd and disperses, but what the people want, Yu'er should pay attention to learn from it!"

"Ah!"

Xiang Yu let out a 'huh', and said disdainfully: "Yafu's words are absurd. He actually asked me to imitate Liu Bang's son-in-law!"

"The ruler is short and the inch is long, Yu'er can't make mistakes!"

Fan Zeng shouldered the important task of revitalizing the state of Chu, and knew Xiang Yu's nature well, so he said meaningfully: "Yu'er knows that Liu Bang was born as a pavilion chief, and most of the people who gather are county officials, butchers, and even refugees and scattered robbers. There are hundreds of thousands of supporters, but they are all mobs!"

"However."

As he said that, he changed the subject, and continued: "But Liu Bang can use the name of Peigong to drive these mobs, why?"

"Why else? Isn't he just old and cunning!"

"Yu'er's words are wrong!"

Fan Zeng sighed: "At the root of it, Liu Bang's aim is to win people's hearts and not fight for fame. Liu Bang's army is certainly not strong, but he can survive dozens of battles, how can he be a cunning and cunning generation?"

"What does Yafu mean is that Liu Bang's ambition is not small?"

"Not bad!"

Fan Zeng took the case and said: "If you only fight for fame and stay with King Huai of Chu, what kind of title can't you get? But Liu Bang chose to go west to Guanzhong, which shows that his ambition is limitless!"

"Such Peigong, I, Xiang Yu, really underestimated him!" Xiang Yu sneered.

Fan Zeng's expression turned serious: "The battle of the great world is about heroes, and there are many others, no matter what!"

"What Yafu said is reasonable, but this Liu Bang is going to the banquet"

Xiang Yu hadn't finished his sentence, but Fan Zeng said solemnly: "Two evils are the least important, and two benefits are the most important. I am afraid that Liu Bang came to the banquet after careful consideration..."

At this point, he paused, then snorted coldly: "To put it bluntly, Liu Bang came prepared!"

"So what if you come prepared?"

Xiang Yu didn't like the feeling of being tricked, so he still said with disdain: "A local ruffian, I, Xiang Yu, let him die at any time!"

"Yu'er still doesn't understand!"

Fan Zeng said angrily, "The current Liu Bang is very different from the previous Liu Bang. In the past, when Liu Bang attacked the city, he must have amassed wealth and gathered beautiful women. But after entering Guanzhong, have you ever heard that he has harmed places?"

"This"

Xiang Yu showed hesitation.

Fan Zeng glanced at him, shook his head, and said emphatically, "Liu Bang is a man who intends to plot against the world. If he doesn't get rid of him as soon as possible, he may become a serious trouble!"

"But didn't Father Ya say that Liu Bang is very good at winning people's hearts? If I kill him rashly, won't it be true?"

Xiang Yu hesitated and said: "What's more, he brought gifts to the banquet. If I kill him, what will the princes think of me?"

Hearing Xiang Yu's question, Fan Zeng was also embarrassed for a while.

But the more this happened, the more he wanted to get rid of Liu Bang.

Liu Bang came to the banquet with more than a dozen horsemen, and there were so many gifts, it was clearly a gamble for his life.

If such people are left alone, they will become a serious disaster in the future.

No!

No matter what, we must find a way to get rid of Liu Bang!
Fan Zeng made up his mind, gave up persuading Xiang Yu, and instead acted without authorization, even if he was blamed by Xiang Yu later, as long as he could get rid of Liu Bang, everything would be worth it.

At the same time, outside Xiang Yu's large tent,

Liu Bangzheng and his subordinates were standing in front of the Chinese army tent, waiting for the call.

When the other princes saw them, they all avoided them.

There is no doubt that Liu Bang is not welcomed among the princes. The main reason is Xiang Yu's attitude.

Xiang Yu was close to Liu Bang, and the princes were close to Liu Bang, and Xiang Yu was far away from Liu Bang, and the princes were naturally alienated from Liu Bang.

Liu Bang is well aware of the current situation.

But Fan Kui and others behind him said angrily: "Brother, what do these bird people mean? We greeted them with good intentions, but we ignored them?"

"Yes! We have an army of hundreds of thousands, and these princes are not even worthy to carry our shoes. How can we think so highly of ourselves?"

"Hmph! A group of guys who are just taking advantage of people's power are nothing more than relying on Xiang Yu's power, so they don't take us seriously!"

"That's right, what's so great about that Xiang Yu, he has an army of hundreds of thousands, and so do we, if you don't accept it, fuck it!"

Hearing that his subordinates were getting more and more outrageous, Liu Bang immediately shouted: "Enough!"

As soon as the voice fell, all the subordinates immediately silenced, and the atmosphere suddenly became quiet.

But Liu Bang said in a deep voice: "Brothers can't bear this birdishness, could it be that I, Liu Ji, can bear it? Anyway, we are also the commander in chief of an army, but is the current scene a time of impulsiveness? A little intolerance will lead to chaos and big plans!"

Hearing this, Zhang Liang glanced at Liu Bang appreciatively, and immediately nodded his head in agreement: "What Peigong said is true, all generals, don't be impatient!"

Xiao He also comforted the generals at the side: "Today's shame will be returned in the future, and all follow Pei Gong's orders, and don't cause trouble again!"

"promise!"

The generals promised to silence.

Liu Bang scanned around, nodded in satisfaction, then restrained his dissatisfied expression, put on a warm smile, went straight forward a few steps, and cupped his hands at the guards outside the tent: "Please tell me, brother, just say Liu Bang from Pei County, led his troops to the banquet!"

"The banquet has already begun, and Pei Gong was late. The general ordered Pei Gong to receive the punishment before going to the banquet!" The guard said indifferently.

"Liu Bang is willing to accept punishment, but I don't know how the general will deal with Liu Bang?"

"The general asked you to kneel outside the tent for an hour!"

"This"

Liu Bang hesitated.

The guard sneered: "Why, Mr. Pei doesn't want to respect the general's order?"

"How dare you!"

Liu Bang accompanied him with a smile and said, "It's just that the outside of the tent is a place of passage. Liu Bang kneels outside the tent and obstructs the passage. How about kneeling aside?"

"Pei Gong is free!"

"it is good!"

Liu Bang responded and knelt down in front of everyone.

Seeing Liu Bang like this, Fan Kui and others gritted their teeth tightly, with humiliated expressions on their faces.

But despite this, they followed Liu Bang and knelt on the ground together.

In the big tent, Xiang Yu couldn't help but browbeat when he learned that Liu Bang was well-behaved, and said to Fan Zeng, "Yafu, Liu Bang is like this, what are you worried about?"

Fan Zeng was silent when he heard this, the expression on his face was like a sculpture.

Xiang Yu frowned slightly, and immediately ordered Jiang Chao: "Let all the princes come in!"

"promise!"

Jiang Chao made a promise, and soon, those princes who had been driven out of the camp entered the banquet again.

At this time, Xiang Yu, completely ignoring Fan Zeng's face, raised his wine glass and laughed at the princes: "Isn't Liu Bang known as the commander-in-chief of hundreds of thousands of troops? Did you see that? He was supposed to kneel outside, so he just knelt down obediently." outside!"

"Hahaha--"

All the princes roared with laughter.

Xiang Yu drank a glass of wine, then smiled and waved his hands: "It's rare to get together today, so I won't make things difficult for him. Come, let Peigong come in!"

After the messenger got the order, Liu Bang and his party walked into the big tent under the eyes of everyone.

At this time, Liu Bang was wearing a gray robe and plain clothes. Since he entered the big tent, he kept his head down, not daring to look at Xiang Yu.

"Liu Bang, Pei County, I pay my respects to the general, and I have met all the generals!" Liu Bang came a few steps away from Xiang Yu's table, and immediately paid his respects.

Xiang Yu looked down, and the smile on his face was even stronger.

"Liu Bang, why are you late?"

"Report to the general, Liu Bang delayed the banquet of the general in order to prepare a gift for the general, and he deserves death. Please make atonement!"

Seeing Liu Bang's humility, Xiang Yu, who was sitting on the main seat, was very useful, so he waved his hands and said: "Get up, you are also the commander of the first army, and it is not good to spread the word if you keep kneeling on the ground like this!"

After speaking, he gave Jiang Chao a look. Jiang Chao understood and immediately arranged seats for Liu Bang and others.

"Thank you, General!"

Liu Bang stood up, saluted Xiang Yu again, walked to his seat, and sat down seriously.

Seeing this, the rest of the princes looked contemptuous.

At the beginning, the princes regarded Liu Bang as a character. After all, Liu Bang had hundreds of thousands of troops in his hands.

But after seeing this scene, all the princes suddenly lost interest.

Probably because the main force of the Qin army was in Julu, there were no defenders at Hangu Pass at all, so Liu Bang took advantage of a loophole and entered the pass first.

Otherwise, why would such a local ruffian sit with those present?
"Liu Bang, I heard that you are so powerful that you captured Hangu Pass very quickly, and now you have reached the territory of Yunyang. This is to destroy Qin in one fell swoop!"

Not long after Liu Bang sat down, Xiang Yu looked at Liu Bang with his wine glass in his hand, his eyes full of smiles.

"The general was joking."

Hearing this, Liu Bang got up quickly and explained: "The battle of Hangu Pass, Liu Bang was just a coincidence. If there were no generals involved in the main force of the Qin army in Julu, no matter how powerful Liu Bang is, he would not be able to break through Hangu Pass!"

"Hehe, I do have some self-knowledge!"

Xiang Yu smiled, and then asked Liu Bang again: "The distance between Yunyang and Xianyang is only a dozen li, and you have hundreds of thousands of troops, when are you going to attack the city?"

"The king of Chu once said that the one who broke Xianyang is the king of Guanzhong. Liu Bang has no talent, so he dare not covet this position!"

"Oh? So, you are waiting for me in Yunyang?"

"Of course!"

Liu Bang said solemnly: "In the whole world, the one who destroys Qin is the general!"

"Hahaha!"

Xiang Yu laughed loudly, and the rest of the princes agreed: "The general is the king of Guanzhong, and he deserves his name!"

"Hey, Xianyang is not yet broken, so it's too early to talk about becoming king at this time!"

Xiang Yu waved his hand modestly, and all the princes smiled in accommodating manner.

However, not everyone is catering to Xiang Yu.

At least Fan Zeng never catered to him from the beginning to the end, and has been observing Liu Bang all the time.

At this time, Fan Zeng, with his old eyes, seemed to contain infinite wisdom, constantly analyzing Liu Bang's actions.

In his opinion, the more humble Liu Bang behaved, the more terrifying he was.

According to Liu Bang's current status, there is no need to be so humble. After all, with hundreds of thousands of troops in his hand, even if he can't match Xiang Yu's coalition army, he can deter one side and become the king among the princes, but he behaves like a wimp, which is really weird.

What is Liu Bang planning?
Why did the princes despise him so much?Could it be that there are other plans?
Thinking of this, a gleam flashed in Fan Zeng's eyes, as if he wanted to see through Liu Bang.

However, Liu Bang always showed a humble demeanor, which made him very puzzled.

After a while, Fan Zeng waved to Xiang Zhuang not far away when everyone had no idea.

Xiang Zhuang is Xiang Yu's cousin. The two grew up together, and they both learned martial arts from Xiang Liang.

Although Xiang Zhuang's military strength is not as good as Xiang Yu's, his swordsmanship is very good.

Xiang Yu called Fan Zeng his sub-father, and Xiang Zhuang, as Xiang Yu's cousin, naturally also called Fan Zeng his sub-father.

Seeing Fan Zeng waving towards him, Xiang Zhuang approached Fan Zeng calmly, and was about to ask, but was interrupted by Fan Zeng waving his hand: "Don't talk, just listen to my arrangement!"

"."

Xiang Zhuang hesitated for a moment, then nodded respectfully.

　Ask for a monthly ticket, ask for a recommendation ticket, ask for a full order!
