Destiny Only Han

Chapter 285 Liu Ying: So I am Sanduo?
Yebingfang, Linzi City.

Ever since the plan of Guan Ying's attack on Chu State was confirmed first, and then the Qi soldiers slowly assembled, Liu Ying became busy.

What he has to do today is to take a walk around Yebingfang in the east of the city.

However, although this place is called Metallurgical Workshop, it does not smelt metal, but only serves as a place to repair weapons and armor.

Liu Ying does not intend to spread the epoch-making production tools such as blast furnaces and water rafts to Qidi.

The main reason is that the officials here are not as good as those in Guanzhong and Hanzhong that Xiao He personally trained. If the coal and iron trading company is reproduced here, it is very likely that the relevant blueprints will be stolen by Xiang Yu.

Therefore, it is necessary to come here to have a look before the war.

In later generations, Liu Ying once read a joke, saying that in the last years of the Ming Dynasty, the government increased the order for weapons in order to defend against foreign captives and suppress domestic bandits.

At this time, a young blacksmith was also assigned the task of making weapons for the government.

It's just that at the beginning, the officials in charge wanted kickbacks, but he endured it.

Materials used in metallurgy were also withheld, and he endured it.

The kickbacks increased, and he endured it again.

The salary was reduced, but he still endured it.

Until the government advances the deadline for delivery, if the delivery cannot be made on time, they will be punished, ranging from bankruptcy to bankruptcy, to decapitation and exile!
So, he reversed...

After escaping, the blacksmith joined a rebel army named Wang Jiayin, and later became the leader, nicknamed 'Eight Kings'.

This person is called Zhang Xianzhong!

Those lawless little officials in the last years of the Ming Dynasty were not individuals. Many little officials who experienced the troubled times of the end of the Qin Dynasty also ate people without spitting out their bones!

Liu Ying's sudden attack this time was still the same old method, first to check the physique and spirit of the craftsmen, and then to check the food situation.

Bai Gui's embankment also plugged his holes, and his father-in-law's cautious fire also painted his gaps. Therefore, Bai Gui has no water and his father-in-law has no fire hazards.

These are all cautious and easy to escape, and respectful and far-reaching.

All corrupt behaviors start from many inconspicuous places.

If there is no skimping on food, then there are probably no other places.

But fortunately, Liu Ying, who was sitting in the small room next door, looked at the food in front of her. Although she didn't have much appetite, it was actually full of food, enough to make up for the consumption of a man who worked hard all morning.

Well, limited by the lighting conditions, everyone works from sunrise to sunset, and the workshop only has lunch.

So five days later, the Langzhong cavalry, which had been prepared, embarked on a journey to attack the rear of Chu.

The car is chaotic, the horse is Xiaoxiao.

The four-wheeled carriages pulled by two horses were full of weapons, armor, food, grass and clothes.

Xiang Yu's main force is still in Kaifeng, which is the central part of Henan in later generations, but Guan Ying's attack this time is in Jiangsu and southern Anhui.

With such a long distance, unless Xiang Yu puts on his wings, he will not be able to come back immediately.

With the blessing of saddles and stirrups, all Langzhong cavalrymen have changed into cavalry armor that can cover their knees. Their combat effectiveness has actually stabilized the Chu army cavalry.

Therefore, in the face of the Chu army's garrison in many places, Guan Ying has the certainty of victory.

And this is also the reason for dispatching Langzhong cavalry.

Only when Xiang Yu was hurt, would he ignore the conspiracy behind the peace talks and hastily withdraw from the front line.

When those Chu soldiers who wanted to protect their own crystals from being stolen were once again entangled by Liu Bang who was like brown sugar...

Fight and not fight, retreat and never retreat...

Mental breakdown is sooner or later.

But at this moment, Liu Bang, who was sitting cross-legged in the palace of the King of Han in Xingyang City, was holding a edamame in his left hand and a piece of yellowed bamboo paper in his right hand. .

"Son, you actually taught me how to fight?"

"It's such a failure..."

Liu Bang sighed, stuffed the edamame into his mouth and chewed, and then even swallowed the skin angrily.

"The only way to relieve worry is..."

He was stunned because the wine in front of him was also made by Liu Ying.

For a moment, Liu Bang felt frustrated.

If the son is too capable, Lao Tzu must be like this. This is a male instinct, and no one can avoid it.

But Liu Bang is different from ordinary people after all, he laughed a little wretchedly.

"No matter how capable the little brat is, isn't he still born to the public? It's a pity that he didn't have another son..."

But regrets are regrets, Liu Bang looked at another letter paper on the table, and his heart was still full of pride.

The Bo Ji whom he had only met once gave birth to a son a day ago.

Well, although Bo Ji used to be Wei Bao's concubine and was often lucky, but if we infer according to the time, this son must be named Liu.

Suddenly, Liu Bang remembered that when he returned to Guanzhong, he heard the nickname Liu Ying had given him in private, and his brows were even more beaming.

one hair boy...

Although he didn't understand what 'fa' is until later, this nickname still made him very satisfied.

Although the kid's expression was full of sarcasm at the time, for ancient men, being able to give birth to a son is something worth showing off.

Well, the phrase "A tree of pear blossoms presses crabapples" back then was not just a joke, but also a compliment.

After all, at an age when ordinary people struggle to breathe, Lihua still has the ability and mood to suppress Haitang, which is really admirable.

Liu Bang put down the letterhead in his hand, pulled out a blank bamboo paper, and immediately ground the ink.

Since the birth is a son, the name should be carefully considered.

After all, the name Liu Ji...

Well, they all suffered from being uneducated!
Liu Bang couldn't help curling his lips, complaining in his heart about his father, a big farmer.

The old man is too unreliable, so whether it is Liu Ying or Liu Fei's name, he did it himself.

In fact, when Liu Ying was born, he said that he was born as a legitimate son, so he took the meaning of 'perfect'.

But in fact, what he thought in his mind was the word 'surplus'.

Without him, if you are not in charge of your family, you will not know how expensive firewood is.

After setting up a household, Liu Bang had a deep understanding of his own poverty, but he couldn't save a lot of necessary expenses, so he was actually overwhelmed by the fact that he had another son...

So, God seems to have heard his prayers. Since then, although Lao Liu is still working hard, regardless of whether it is Lu Zhi or Cao's, they are really "replenishment"...

Until the appearance of Qi Ji, Liu Bang regained his confidence as a man.

So from then on, he became cautious about naming things.

So, he slowly wrote the word 'Heng' on the paper.

Constant ones, often also.

From the heart to the boat, go up and down between the two, give with the boat from the heart, and persevere.

Moreover, the day when Bo Ji gave birth happened to be the day when the strings were wound up. According to the "Book of Songs Tianbao", it is as constant as the moon.

Heng refers to the first quarter moon.

After naming Liu Heng, Liu Bang saw his own brainstorm, a complacent expression appeared on his face again, and began to hum a ditty.

Yellow and violent...

As a result, Zhou Bo, who walked in from the outside, immediately neither advanced nor retreated.

Liu Bang beckoned, and asked Wei Wuzhi to send the letter back to Guanzhong, and immediately asked someone to place a futon in front of him, and nodded to Zhou Bo to sit down.

"I heard that your majesty wants to negotiate peace with the Chu army?" Zhou Bo looked directly at Liu Bang.

Currently only Liu Ying and Zhang Liang know about the pretense of peace negotiations. Of the other generals on the Xingyang side, perhaps only Chen Ping, who has woven an intelligence network, knows a little bit.

Liu Bang nodded, and said seriously: "That's right, the national seal is covered, it's absolutely true."

Zhou Bo beat his chest and said, "Who gave the king this idea? This person should be killed! At this moment, Xiang Yu was wiped out in one go. How can you retreat lightly?"

Liu Bang crossed his hands and moved his wrists: "Don't care who came up with the idea. Now that the national seal has been sealed, we can only do it according to the agreement..."

"Bah, bad habits!"

Zhou Bo waved his hand violently, his eyes widened: "There is no need to abide by such a bullshit agreement!"

Well, when they were in Pei County, if they paid their bills on a monthly basis, they would have been bankrupt for many years, so breaking the contract is nothing at all!
The old god Liu Bang was asking: "In the army, did you say that too?"

This sentence was the question Liu Bang really wanted to ask after laying the groundwork for a long time.

The morale of the army cannot be violated. If the soldiers think that it is better to strike and truce, it will be really difficult for him to break the contract.

Zhou Bo nodded angrily: "It's not just me, most of the lieutenant generals also think the same way. If Fan Kuai and I hadn't suppressed it, the soldiers would have come to petition a long time ago!"

"Your Majesty, don't forget that there are many Guanzhong disciples in the Han army, and they have a deep blood feud with Xiang Yu and the Chu army!"

Liu Bang nodded first, then leaned forward and asked, "You said, Fan Kui also doesn't agree to strike?"

Zhou Bo nodded blankly.

Liu Bang suddenly looked up to the sky and smiled, beckoning: "Okay, sit closer and have some wine with me."

Although Zhou Bo became more and more confused, when Liu Bang mentioned the word 'wine', the greedy worm in his belly suddenly went up desperately and took control of his brain.

However, he still pretended to hesitate for a while: "Military laws are strict, and generals are not allowed to drink without reason..."

Liu Bang tapped the table with his finger: "Pei County swear words! Bring it to Nai Gong!"

Therefore, Zhou Bo happily obeyed his orders rather than being respectful.

However, after drinking two glasses of wine, he still frowned and said, "I really can't stop fighting..."

Liu Bang raised the corner of his mouth and whispered into his ear, "I'll tell you a secret. You must never tell anyone else!"

Zhou Bo nodded: "Don't worry, my mouth is the strictest..."

A trace of contempt flashed in Liu Bang's eyes, but he still whispered: "The contract, Naigong has already used it as a toilet..."

Zhou Bo opened his eyes wide suddenly: "The king means..."

Liu Bang booed: "Drink, drink..."

At sunset, Liu Bang patrolled the city defenses as usual, and when he passed a tower, he staggered suddenly.

"What? Your Majesty ate the contract?"
