Destiny Only Han

Chapter 288 Liu Ying: Sweeping Coupons

Lixia north of the city, Daming Lake.

Liu Ying jumped off the horse, took off her sweaty clothes two or three times, and jumped into the shallow water on the bank.

There are four monsters in Daming Lake. Frogs do not sing, snakes do not appear, long droughts do not dry up, and long rains do not rise.

So apart from worrying about being caught by crabs, there is no risk factor at all.

The reason he went out on a hot day was because he heard that someone had captured two rhinos alive.

Well, such things as rhinos were not only found at the turn of the Qin and Han Dynasties. The last rhino recorded in China was a small one-horned rhino that was hunted and killed in about 1922. Since then, China’s native rhinos have disappeared.

Liu Ying's idea is very simple, that is, to transport the two rhinos back to Guanzhong and build a zoo to raise them.

When he was in Hanzhong, he promised to build a new Zhongyangli for Liu Taigong, but after the completion, his family moved to Liyang.

But a promise is a promise.

Liu Ying not only wants to fulfill her promise again in Guanzhong, but also wants to build a new Fengcheng in the place where the Hongmen Banquet was held in the past, as in history.

Xinfeng, the new Fengyi!
Well, some people say that Liu Bang is from Feng County instead of Pei County, which is actually not very accurate.

Because during this period, Fengyi was a township under the jurisdiction of Pei County.

But the strong master wins the ancestors.

Liu Ying does not intend to simply reproduce a small rural town in the second century BC, but intends to use this excuse to build a city that never sleeps in this era!
There are everything from the racetrack to the Cuju field.

Not only for fun, but also as a way to establish social values.

filial piety.

In the second century BC, Mr. De, Mr. Sai, and Ma Dabeard had no social basis, so it is better to rule the world with filial piety formed since the Spring and Autumn and Warring States.

It is worth mentioning that many street stalls said that Fusu was influenced by Confucianism, so he obeyed the imperial edict and committed suicide with tears in his eyes.

But in fact, Confucianism has never forced people to do anything.

Zeng Shen, one of the four consorts of the Confucian Temple, because he accidentally hoeed the melon seedlings when weeding the melon field, was considered inattentive by the old father, so he was beaten up and passed out.

When Zeng Shen woke up, he thought he was filial and beautiful, so he was scolded by Confucius:
"The small stick will accept, and the big stick will go away. Now I am waiting for the violent wrath, so as to trap my father's injustice. How safe is filial piety!" '

In other words, it's your filial...

It was the Legalists who really influenced Fusu's behavior.

According to the Qin law, parents or slave owners have the right to write to the government, requesting to kill unfilial sons or disobedient slaves at home.

That's why it was written in the imperial edict of the first emperor: Fusu is unfilial as a son of man, and he bestows a sword to kill himself!General Tian and Fusu are outsiders, and if they don't correct themselves, they should know their plans.If a minister is unfaithful, he will die...

Therefore, it is very important to overthrow the Confucius shop and rescue Confucius!
Some time ago, after Liu Ying heard that Guan Ying had defeated the governor of Xue County and captured and killed several generals, she decisively found Kong Ju, who was working under Han Xin's account, and asked him to go to Qufu, no matter what method he used, to protect the Good old house.

Kong Ju's elder brother is Confucius' eighth grandson, Kong Yu.

It's Kong Yu from Lubi Collection.

When the first emperor was there, Li Si suggested burning poetry and books, so Kong Yu hid many of his own, that is, Confucian classics, in the walls of the Confucian mansion.

After Chen Sheng and Wu Guang's uprising, Kong Yu served in Chen Sheng's army, but unfortunately he was defeated by Zhang Han and died.

In the period of Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty, Liu Yu, king of Lu Gong, forcibly demolished the Kong family in order to expand the palace, so these ancient books were dug out.

So Liu Ying's idea is naturally that there is no need to wait for many more years.

Anyway, he was preparing to compile the Dahan Encyclopedia in Guanzhong. It’s okay to have more or less. The big deal is to make those Confucian scholars work overtime...

Six nine five is a blessing!
Six o'clock, about Mao's time, is the time when the government prepares to work, and five is the rule of this period, one day of rest every four days.

Just when Liu Ying was about to improve the guillotine, Han Xin came from a distance and told him some unfortunate news.

The army of Yanzhao said that the rendezvous of the main army would be delayed on the grounds that the heavy rain blocked the road; while Peng Yue said that he was infected with the wind and cold and could not go to the ground, so he could not come to join the army.

Liu Ying held a river crab with its teeth and claws open, looked up at Han Xin and asked, "Do you believe it?"

Although Han Xin felt that Liu Ying looked at him strangely, he still shook his head slightly.

Although he is a political idiot, if he can't even see through the rhetoric of hanging rails, then he is a real idiot!

And he's hiding something.

What Zhang Ao sent him was not only a notice to evade the meeting, but also persuaded him to wait for the best time to send troops.

Zhang Ao inherited the throne of Zhang Er, but when Liu Bang was canonized again, he no longer used the bamboo coupons that signified equality, but the iron coupons that represented his subjects.

So Zhang Ao felt that he could unite Zang Tu and Han Xin and exchange the iron coupons for bamboo coupons. Zhao Guo would become an ally on an equal footing with Han Guo, just like Yan Guo.

Although Han Xin was also a little moved, Liu Ying, as the deputy commander of Fa Chu, was almost sitting beside him at the moment, and the big men in the army such as Cao Shen were also Liu Bang's cronies.

The most important thing is that the order to call up the army has been issued, and unless Liu Bang comes in person, even he, the king of Qi, has no way to revoke it.

Therefore, he could only come as planned.

Liu Ying sighed helplessly, looked at Han Xin and asked, "The main force of Yanzhao is not here, so how many troops have we assembled at this moment?"

Han Xin lowered his head and was silent for a while: "Qi army has 12 troops, Zhao army has 18 troops from Zhang Cang's department, and Lu Wan and Liu Jia's [-] troops from the northern line, totaling [-] troops."

After Han Xin became King of Qi, Zhang Cang replaced him as Prime Minister of Zhao, so he had some military power in his hands. He had reached the north bank of the Great River two days ago and was now crossing the river one after another.

Liu Ying did some calculations, and the Yanzhao coalition army had at least 15 troops, while the Liang army led by Peng Yue, after several years of development, had no more than 10 troops.

In other words, the army assembled at this moment is only half of the original target!
Liu Ying glanced at Han Xin, but said nothing.

In fact, Liu Ying knew exactly what Zhang Aopengyue was thinking.

It's the last battle, and if they don't get enough benefits, these two people will definitely not send troops easily.

Liu Ying had vaguely guessed this point when Liyang made the decision, but at that time he thought that Liu Bang and Zhang Liang had already made arrangements, so he didn't make corresponding moves.

So he looked at Han Xin and asked, "If we don't wait for them, with our current strength, can we defeat Xiang Yu?"

Han Xin was silent for a long time, then nodded with difficulty.

"Yes, but it's difficult."

"How difficult is it?"

"It's hard to go to the blue sky!"

After listening to Han Xin's answer, Liu Ying remained silent again.

After a while, he looked up at Han Xin and asked, "I remember, did we capture a Chu general called Zhou Lan?"

Han Xin thought about it and nodded silently.

Liu Ying said with a smile: "If I remember correctly, he seems to be the younger brother of Zhou Yin, the Grand Sima of Chu State..."

Han Xin scratched his head: "And then?"

Liu Ying raised her eyebrows:

"Zhou Yin is now in Jiujiang, if we ask Zhou Lan to persuade him to surrender, then the army of Jiujiang will fall to us?"

"According to this calculation, there are at least sixty to seventy thousand new troops!"

Han Xin shook his head: "I don't think it's possible."

Liu Ying asked back: "How is it impossible?"

Han Xin replied: "I know Zhou Yin. He was a general of Xiang Liang back then. He was extremely loyal to the Xiang family. If you want to persuade him to join the Han Kingdom..."

Liu Ying raised an index finger to interrupt Han Xin: "Listen to what you said, is there a possibility that Zhou Yin's allegiance is to the Xiang family, not Xiang Yu himself!"

Han Xin shook his head again: "I'm not sure, but I can't rule out the possibility."

As Xiang Yu's halberd-bearer, although he is not highly valued, after all, he hangs around in the power center every day, and actually has some understanding of Xiang Yu's status in the Xiang clan.

After Xiang Yan died in battle, the person in charge of the Xiang family was Xiang Liang. After Xiang Liang died, it was Xiang Liang's son, Xiang Xiang, who should have taken over the banner of the Xiang family.

However, through a mutiny, Xiang Yu joined forces with Yingbo to kill Song Yi, the champion of Qingzi, and dragged all the Xiang clan into the water. He had to pinch his nose and let him be the general of Chu!
As a result, Xiang Yu replaced Xiang Xiang and became the speaker of the Xiang clan.

This is also the reason why Xiang Yu did not entrust a single Xiang family when enfeoffing the princes.

Liu Ying got out of the water and said excitedly: "Let's do this, let Zhou Lan persuade his elder brother to surrender, and promise to be a marquis after the matter is completed. He led the southern army to join Yingbu and attack Jiujiang country together!"

Han Xin stared at Liu Ying for a long time, and suddenly asked with some doubts: "Don't you need to report to the King of Han for such an important matter as Fenghou?"

Liu Ying shook her head: "When I left Liyang, I asked for a few blank iron coupons from my father, which are specially used to reward meritorious ministers...Just report to my father afterwards!"

Han Xin nodded, feeling full of regret.

It's a pity that Liu Ying only has the right to be canonized as a marquis, not a king, otherwise it would be easy for Peng Yue.

After all, Liu Bang had promised to canonize Peng Yue as King of Liang.

Today, Peng Yue is only Prime Minister of Liang. Although he has the real status of King Liang, he only lacks the name of King Liang!
Liu Ying ran back to the room in a hurry, took out a small box from under the bed, opened it, looked up at Han Xin who came in and asked:
"Didn't Zhao Jun have many generals who also served in our army when we attacked Qi before? Have all these people returned to Zhao State now?"

Han Xin nodded: "After Qi was established, Zhao Jun and Yan Jun, together with the generals and schools, have withdrawn to the north. I remember telling you before?"

He immediately asked with some doubts: "Why are you asking this again?"

Liu Ying spread out the iron coupons in the box, smiled and said nothing.

Those generals asked to be King of Qi because of Han Xin, so that they didn't receive the reward they deserved.

If Liu Ying's expectations are not bad, they also did not receive rewards after returning to China.

Well, if their names are written on the iron coupons...

Will they be loyal to King Zhao?
Or Hanwang?
