Destiny Only Han

Chapter 151 hatred because of jealousy
In August, a gust of wind has brought a little cool breath of autumn.

To the west of the abandoned hill, on the endless field, the yellowed ears of grain, under the reflection of the setting sun, emit an attractive golden yellow color and exude a faint fragrance.

However, when the sun sets and the moon rises, the flames soar into the sky.

In the light of the fire, the knight holding the torch can be seen faintly, rushing further away.

With the idea of ​​destroying if he can't get it, Zhang Han sent his cavalry to set fire to the farmland before being surrounded by the Han army in the abandoned hill.

There is a saying in military strategists, if you eat an enemy for one minute, you will take me for twenty minutes;

With the successive defeats of the Sanqin, Yong Kingdom has now changed from a strategic offense to a strategic defense, so it is particularly important to fortify the wall and clear the field!
At this moment, Zhang Han was standing at the head of the ruined hill, commanding the soldiers to prepare to defend the city, while looking in the direction of Pengcheng.

"Xiang Yu should have received Gu's request for help, I hope he can come as soon as possible..."

"As long as Xichu's army launches an attack, everything will be fine!"

He never questioned the combat power of the Chu army, and even in the previous defeats, he didn't think that his skills were inferior to others.

If the Qin army under his command had not suffered a massacre under Xin'an City, the current situation would definitely not be like this!
However, everything can't go back...

Zhang Han sighed silently, walked quickly to the top of the city, and personally went to supervise the soldiers' demolition of houses and used them as rolling logs and rocks to defend the city.

He firmly believed that he could guard the city wall until Xiang Yu's arrival!

…………

Guanzhong, Liyang County.

Sima Xin stood at the top of the wall, feeling a little desperate.

Outside the city, where the stars are dotted in the night, shining like a river of stars, are the bonfires and military lanterns in the camps of the Han army.

The surrender of the Lantian defenders left Sima Xin with no more troops to mobilize.

The defenses of the counties in Serbia are still insufficient, and it is only a dream to send troops to serve the king when they go out of the city to fight in the field.

So under such circumstances, the Han army and the Lu army joined forces and surrounded Liyang like an iron bucket, not letting any soldiers leave the city.

On the other hand, the fact that the Lantian defenders surrendered and the King of Han canonized them as Wanhuhou was widely spread.

With such a combination of grace and power, Qixian, Qianxian, Pinyang and other counties in Guanzhong were easily conquered one after another.

And Zhou Bo also joined forces with Cao Shen who was repairing in Jingling, and was marching towards Zhang Han who was trapped in the abandoned hill.

Sima Xin supported the wall with his hands. Although the early autumn night was not so cold, he still wrapped the cloak tightly behind him.

"It is said that the envoys of the Han Dynasty came to the city to see Gu."

Without looking back, he gave orders to the attendants behind him, and then looked at the Han army barracks in the distance again in a daze.

Wang Tu's hegemony, the kingdom of gods on the ground, are now all a dream.

At this moment, he just wanted to save his own life.

After a while, Li Shiqi, wearing a Confucian crown, tremblingly walked up to the top of the city, and bowed to Sima Xin: "My minister, Li Shiqi, has met King Sai!"

Sima Xin smiled sadly: "Hey... King Sai?"

Li Shiqi waited for his laughter to die down, raised his eyes and asked, "I don't know why King Kuiye summoned you?"

Sima Xin said cheerfully: "If I surrender to the King of Han, I wonder if I can change my life?"

Li Shiqi smiled all over his face: "It's more than just a life. When I came here, my king once said that if the king is willing to surrender, he can still retain the position of King Sai and enjoy all the glory!"

Sima Xin sneered: "Keep the throne? Your Majesty, can you still have a king?"

Li Shiqi shook his head and said with a smile, "The king of Han's entry into the customs is nothing more than Xiang Yu's usurpation of power, and the division of entrustment is unfair. But the king's throne is to be reported to the empress, and everyone in the world knows."

"So, how can my king take away the throne of the king so easily? I have a few words in my heart that should not be said to outsiders. I want to speak for the king. I wonder if the king is willing to listen?"

Sima Xin was stunned for a moment, and said seriously: "Sir, please tell me, I will listen with all my ears."

Li Shiqi carefully said: "In the land of the Three Qin Dynasty, there is still King Zhai and King Yong. In order to recruit the two kings, at this moment, the king's position as King Sai is as secure as Mount Tai!"

"Even if we take [-] steps back, one day in the future, my king wants to cut off the king's throne. As long as the king bows his head and surrenders, my king is a dunous elder, and he will definitely not kill the king!"

"And the world is in turmoil. I'm afraid that day may not come in ten or twenty years. Even if it does come, with the accumulation of these decades, the royal family can enjoy peace and prosperity for generations!"

Sima Xin thought for a while, then nodded heavily: "Sir, a word made a certain Mosai suddenly enlightened! In this case, a certain is willing to use the power of a country to serve the King of Han!"

…………

Three days later, in the morning.

Two rows of long horns protruded from the head of Liyang City, and they neighed in the face of the rising sun.

Today is the day when Sima Xin, king of Sai, surrendered to Liu Bang, king of Han.

A year ago, in the south of the Wei River, Prince Qin Yingsu came out in white clothes, marking the complete collapse of the Qin Empire.

Now, the king of Qin, who is divided into thirds, also comes down in a plain car and white clothes. Everyone understands that Guanzhong will soon become the Guanzhong of Han!

Liu Bang stood on the car, holding his sword, and behind him a scarlet cloak fluttered in the wind, making a sound of hunting.

He looked ahead, the flags were unfurled, looking around, spears were like forests, soldiers were like clouds, thousands of troops followed him, surrounded him, guarded him, and looked up at him!
Sir, be it!
But when Sima Xin really appeared in plain white clothes, Liu Bang jumped off the chariot immediately, walked to Sima Xin with a smile on his face, and under the puzzled eyes of the other party, he took off the cloak behind him and put it on his body.

Immediately afterwards, he took Sima Xin by the hand and stepped into his chariot, and walked towards the city of Yueyang side by side with him.

This is the gift of participation.

It is the highest courtesy handed down from ancient times for the emperor and his ministers to ride in the same car!
Now, this kind of etiquette is used on Sima Xin who has been defeated one after another and has no choice but to surrender!

All of a sudden, not only the Han army, but also the Serbian army who came out with Sima Xin on the opposite side were completely silent. When the carriage passed by, they even forgot to bow their heads and not look directly at His Holiness the rule.

Among the crowd, I don't know who shouted.

"king!"

Immediately afterwards, the shouts of mountains and tsunami sounded.

"king!"

Liu Bang smiled gently, leaning on the railing of the carriage with one hand, raised the other hand, and kept waving to the shouting crowd.

As a result, the shouts became more and more deafening!
From Liu Bang's line of sight, one could see a pair of faces with red ears and red ears, full of fanaticism.

Some are old, some are young, some are ravines, some are flat and immature.

Although the faces are different, they are filled with the same tears and admiration.

Sima Xin's face turned pale. Although he was in the same car as Liu Bang and was also called the king, he knew very well that the 'king' people were calling had nothing to do with him!

The scene at this time had never appeared even when the First Emperor was on tour!
When the First Emperor went on tour, he was majestic and majestic, but the people all looked sideways, and their hearts were full of resentment.

The suffering of the people's livelihood is unspeakable, but the emperor eats the blood of the people, but he is extravagant and desperate, delusional about immortality, and enslaving the common people in the world for life after life!

It's just that after Sima Xin compared Liu Bang with the first emperor, he didn't have the slightest respect for Liu Bang in his heart.

On the contrary, resentment rose faintly in his heart!

The resentment caused by jealousy began to ferment in his heart.

Sima Xin squinted at Liu Bang, his face remained unchanged, but he secretly swore in his heart, just wait, today's humiliation will be paid with blood!
…………

Liyang Palace.

This is 383 BC, in order to conquer the land of Hexi, Qin Xiangong moved the capital to the Qin King's Palace built thereafter.

Afterwards, Qin State moved its capital to Xianyang again. Although there is no King Qin here, the royal palace is not abandoned, and a lot of money is invested in repairs every year.

But because Qin State was not rich when it was first built, and the construction technology was relatively backward. Compared with Xianyang, the palace here is the difference between Fontainebleau Palace and Europa District...

However, good fortune and misfortune depend on it. It is precisely because of this that when Xiang Yu led his troops west to slaughter Xianyang, although it was also looted by rebels, the palace escaped.

After Liu Bang finished his surrender ceremony, he lived in the palace here at the kind invitation of Sima Xin.

As for Sima Xin himself, he moved to a palace in the east of the city.

At this moment, Liu Bang was strolling in the palace, and he put a label on Sima Xin again in his heart.

mean!

Sima Xin took advantage of the three days of preparation time to remove all the valuables in the palace. Liu Bang believed that if it wasn't for the lack of time, he would even remove the rockeries in the garden pond!
Well, under Liu Ying's 'influence', when he commented on the garden now, he picked up the rockery in the pond and commented on it. After the clouds and mountains were covered in mist, he pretended to be cowardly and slipped away...

At this moment, he was standing in the distance, twisting his beard and looking at the rockery in the pond:

"The artistic content of this rockery is very high..."

Lu Ze, who came in with him, didn't bother to talk to him, but there is always a lot of people around the leader who give him a lot of compliments.

Li Shiqi stepped forward slowly, and said in admiration, "My king has good eyesight!"

Liu Bang smiled contentedly, reached out and patted Li Shiqi on the shoulder: "Yes, you are the first to recruit Sima Xin!"

Li Shiqi smiled all over his face: "Don't dare, don't dare, it's all soldiers who use their lives, and it's just a matter of tongue!"

Liu Bang shook his head: "Humble, isn't it modest! Everyone has their own strengths. For example, Mr. Guangye, you persuaded Sima Xin to surrender for me with just a good tongue, saving you a bloody battle!"

"And let my younger brother believe in Chengjun Li Shang, lead troops to march westward, and break through four counties in Longxi one after another in ten days, it is unstoppable!"

"It is Liu Bang's blessing to have talented Kunzhong at his service!"

Li Shiqi's eyes were slightly red, and he bowed to the ground: "It is the blessing of my two brothers to be attached to the Lord Ming to spread our wings!"

Liu Bang stretched out his hand to help him up: "Now that Sima Xin has descended, Dong Yi is there, and I hope that Mr. Guangye will suffer from the fatigue of boats and cars again..."

Li Shiqi shook his head slightly: "Dong Yi is different from Sima Xin. He was born in the army. If I, a Confucian scholar, go there, I'm afraid things will be the opposite."

Liu Bang asked: "In your opinion, who should be allowed to go?"

Li Shiqi had a plan in mind: "A strong man who accompanied me into the city to persuade Sima Xin to surrender, led Zhu Zhen!"
