Prime Minister of Great Qin

Chapter 320: Fighting with roommates? (14)

Xiang Liang was extremely angry.

He was already dissatisfied with Xiang Yu's impulsive thoughts, and now Xiang Yu was still chattering here, which completely angered him.

Xiang Yu was unmoved.

Still stick to your point of view.

Xiang Yu raised the corners of his eyes slightly, without looking directly into Xiang Liang's eyes, and said in a deep voice: "In the past, our Chu nobles gave in too much, so now we can only hide in Tibet. As Mr. Fan said, the Qin Dynasty is One country in the world is actively seeking change in order to survive, trying to create some changes in the world, and then continue the country. How can we, the nobles of the six countries, continue to wait for death?"

"Waiting to die, what is the country of death?"

"As the saying goes, take one step back, and step back step by step."

"Whenever I have the thought of retreating, I will keep giving in involuntarily. I always think that there is still room for retreat. I always feel that as long as I keep giving in, the general trend of the world will develop in my favor. But is this really the case in the world?"

"I, Xiang Yu, beg to differ."

"When encountering trouble, you shrink back and become timid. You don't dare to fight and win. How can you accomplish anything with such an attitude?"

"Uncle thinks that Qin is too powerful and we should make concessions."

"But when will this concession end?"

"It has been ten years since the founding of the Qin Dynasty, and our Chu Kingdom has retreated for twelve or three years. Has there been any improvement? Now we are just following those Confucian scholars and spreading some rumors and prophecies in the world. Can these rumors really slander the Qin Dynasty? "

Xiang Yu's eyes were cold.

He decided to express his thoughts completely.

He stared directly at the sky, his dissatisfaction with the current situation directly exposed.

Xiang Yu said loudly: "The Qin army has won hundreds of battles in the past and is invincible in the world. Therefore, our nobles cannot help but be afraid of Qin. We even dare not have any intention of resistance or any intention of resistance. Wherever the Qin army goes, , The nobles of our six countries all shrank their heads and did not dare to show their faces, for fear that they would be discovered by the Qin people and be surrounded and suppressed by the Qin army."

"But this is Chudi!"

"In our territory of Chu, as Chu people, how can we sit back and watch the Qin people run rampant? And just swallow their anger?"

"Fight when it's time to fight."

"If you never dare to take action, wouldn't you be taking the initiative to show your cowardice?"

"of course."

"We don't have enough strength to fight against the Qin army, but what we want is not to really destroy Qin in one battle, but to show our determination to fight the Qin people to the end. What we want is to put them to death. The bravery of the young people makes the Qin people no longer dare to trample on us and humiliate us at will, and only by actually taking action can the local officials deeply feel that the great Chu is here."

"The Kingdom of Chu will never be destroyed!"

"The reason why they dare to be half-hearted."

"Isn't it just because we are not determined enough to fight against Qin?"

“How can you convince the public if you don’t have confidence?”

"A husband fights, courage also."

"How can we achieve great things if we don't even have the courage to take action?"

"Uncle, you think too much sometimes."

"As a general, what you really need to consider is the struggle on the battlefield, rather than some calculation of interests and blind pursuit of perfection. Without the edge, will my Xiang family still be the original Xiang family?"

"Is my Da Chu still the same Da Chu I used to be?"

Xiang Yu expressed his dissatisfaction loudly and loudly.

heard.

Xiang Liang was furious and yelled on the spot: "What do you know at once? Have you really fought against the Qin army? Do you know the oppressive power of the Qin army on the battlefield? Not to mention that my Xiang family only has more than a thousand people. Even if there are ten thousand people or 10 people, they are no match for the Qin army. Do you think I want to retreat again and again?"

"I don't want to take action?"

"But what's the price?"

"The price is that my Xiang family will bleed like a river."

"You can use this to become famous and be respected by people all over the world, but what about the other sons of my Xiang family?"

"Are they going to accompany you to die in vain?"

"Back then, King Huai of Chu was silent and became a blockbuster. King Gou Jian of Yue was lying on his back to eat his courage. Now this is exactly the situation we are in. Our forbearance at the moment is just to make better moves in the future. And once we make a move, it will definitely be earth-shattering. How can we really be restrained? What are the gains and losses in front of you?"

"Your suggestion is brave and devoid of wisdom."

"How can I agree?"

"I usually ask you to study more and study more, but you just don't listen. When something happens, you just show off your courage. If you can kill the violent Qin with your bravery, then it's your turn to take action?"

"If you dare to mention these arrogant words again, don't come out with me in the future."

"I, Xiang Liang, cannot afford to lose this person."

"I, Mr. Xiang, cannot afford to be embarrassed like this."

Xiang Liang was furious and scolded Xiang Yu severely.

Among the children of the Xiang family, he is actually the most optimistic about Xiang Yu. However, Xiang Yu has a really stubborn temper and likes to rely on force to solve problems. However, Xiang Yu is very powerful and can get him to settle things most of the time. This also leads to the fact that Xiang Yu There is no progress at all, and I always believe that bravery can solve all problems.

This also annoyed Xiang Liang for a long time.

to this end.

He even spent a lot of money to hire famous teachers for Xiang Yu.

It's just that the results are not good.

aside.

Fan Zeng stroked his gray beard, a smile appeared in the corners of his eyes, and he said with a smile: "Brother Fan, why are you so angry? I think what your nephew said is reasonable."

heard.

Xiang Liang frowned.

He said with a sullen look on his face: "Brother Fan, why are you starting to speak for him?"

"You have no idea what a bastard my nephew is."

"If I hadn't always brought it with me, it would have turned upside down long ago."

Fan Zeng laughed and said nonchalantly: "Brother Xiang, you have wronged me."

"I really think your nephew's idea is right."

"Sometimes simply giving in may not necessarily lead to everything one wishes. Appropriate publicity and appropriate action may be far better than unilateral avoidance."

"And this is probably your nephew's true thoughts."

"He wants a fight."

“But what’s more important is determination and courage.”

"Isn't it because local officials dared to switch to the Qin court this time because they had no confidence in the nobles of the six countries?"

"In their eyes, you are probably a bunch of lost dogs. You only dare to do things behind your back and don't dare to show up in public at all. Even your public appearances in the city in the past were all with their help. How can this not let them down? Are you feeling arrogant?"

"My nephew's intention is to speak out at the right time and show his toughness to the outside world."

"A fist, just clenched, does not have much deterrent effect. Only when it is really punched out and people can feel it, can people feel the power."

"And you have had this problem for a long time."

"Since Zhang Liang Bolangsha failed to assassinate the First Emperor, the forces of the Six Kingdoms began to shrink and began a long period of silence. They only dared to make some noise and rumors, but after a long period of silence, it was difficult to cheer up."

"The morale is low and the people's hearts are sluggish. This is the current situation of the six countries." "And this is actually inseparable from your insistence on giving in."

"Giving in is the only option."

"What's more, you have persisted for so many years, but you dare not show your true strength to the outside world. This will naturally make more and more people question you. As time goes by, it will naturally make more and more people stay away."

Xiang Liang was silent.

How could he not want to avenge his previous shame?
But there is really no way.

Qin Ting is powerful. Once Qin Ting's attention is attracted, most of the wealth they have accumulated with great difficulty will probably be thrown away. Is this what he wants to see?
Fan Zeng also knew the situation of the nobles of the six countries, and sighed softly: "When things happen, you show your timidity. You only think about something happening to the First Emperor and the collapse of the Qin court. This is a poor choice. Even if the world is really in chaos in the future, it will still happen." If you want to truly destroy Qin, you will have to destroy everything in the Qin court, and the invincible Qin army will also be defeated."

"in this way."

"Only can we truly establish the power of the world."

Hearing Fan Zeng's words, Xiang Yu showed a strange expression.

In the past, Mr. Fuzi whom Xiang Liang found seldom spoke for him, and basically only followed Xiang Liang's words. This Fan Zeng could actually speak for himself, and he couldn't help but win a lot of favor from Xiang Yu.

Xiang Yu said: "What you said is absolutely true."

"My uncle only saw the shortcomings, but he couldn't see the influence on the general trend of the world."

"You can't even see the benefits that this vigorous counterattack will bring to our Xiang family. Although our Xiang family will lose a lot, it has established its leading position among the nobles of the six countries in one fell swoop. If the world is in chaos in the future, , there will definitely be more people willing to take refuge in my Xiang family."

"Because I, the Xiang family, are the ones who really dare to confront Qin Ting head-on."

"Only I, the Xiang family, really have the obsession to destroy Qin and the great cause of destroying Qin."

"Uncle, you are just wrong."

"You shouldn't have stopped me in the first place, let alone let Xiang Xiangmao, Xiang Sheng and others drag me away. You should have allowed me to lead my people to have a head-on confrontation with the Qin army. Even if we lose, it can inspire people." , it can boost morale and inspire more people who oppose Qin."

"This is the land of old Chu after all."

"We're more familiar with this area."

"Once defeated, it can be broken into pieces in an instant, making it impossible for the Qin army to catch up."

“The risks are high, but the rewards are also high.”

heard.

Xiang Liang snorted coldly and had no comment.

He said coldly: "After all, this is just your one-sided statement. What if you can't escape intact? If this time arouses the anger of the First Emperor and is searched by tens of thousands of Qin troops, my Xiang family will be able to escape at that time." How much will you pay? If our Xiang clan is destroyed because of this, do you think your reckless impulse this time will inspire or shock the world?"

"How can I risk this?"

"There is no need to argue about this matter, and there will be no further discussion in the future."

Xiang Yu curled his lips.

His face was full of displeasure.

Uncle is obviously unreasonable.

see.

Fan Zeng smiled, took the initiative to smooth things over, and said with a smile: "Brother Xiang, don't be angry. My nephew has good intentions. He also wants to restore the world, so why should he be ordinary?"

"Perhaps the words are a little extreme and the actions are a little reckless."

“But it’s also a direction.”

"The world needs some changes. Qin needs it, and the forces of the six countries also need it."

"Judging from the current situation, just relying on some rumors to slander Qin Ting and disrupt Qin Ting's arrangements has not been very effective. It has even begun to be used by Qin Ting, which is not worth the loss."

"The Xiang family's biggest goal now is to increase its own strength."

"Strength of oneself is the foundation."

heard.

Xiang Liang was stunned.

This is also the purpose of his coming here.

He slightly raised his hands towards Fan Zeng and asked humbly: "Sir, please give me some advice for our Xiang family."

Fan Zeng stroked his beard and nodded with a smile, a glint in his eyes.

He said calmly: "Before you arrived, I was actually worried for a while. Just then I heard that your Xiang family had not suffered too much damage, and then I was completely relieved. This time Qin Ting Lei took action and let the forces of the Six Nations It’s a huge loss, but in a way, it’s not necessarily all bad.”

"In the past, in the land of Jingchu, there were many forces that controlled everything."

"Canine teeth."

"Obviously, the Song and Tang Dynasties are three pillars."

"In fact, there are other nobles behind the scenes. They also have a lot of influence in the Chu region. Therefore, there are many secret troubles among the various clans. This is also the fundamental reason why it is difficult for the Chu region to unite."

"Now the vitality of the Song and Tang Dynasties has been severely damaged, and other nobles have also been robbed one after another, and their power has been greatly weakened."

"The population is fleeing."

"And Xiang's foundation is basically intact."

"So the Xiang family is fully capable of helping these nobles, drawing these people to their side, and then strengthening themselves."

"How many elites are there in the Xiang clan now?"

Xiang Liang's eyes were cloudy and uncertain.

This is a clan secret.

There are very few people in the entire Xiang family who know about it.

Fan Zeng didn't urge him, he just looked at Xiang Liang calmly.

Xiang Liang thought for a moment and decided to tell the truth. He lowered his voice and said: "There are less than a thousand Xiang clan members in Kuaiji County, but there are actually some in other counties. If they were really gathered, there should be two or three thousand people." the crowd."

Xiang Yu's eyes turned cold.

He stared at Fan Zeng, and if Fan Zeng dared to show any abnormality, he would subdue Fan Zeng as soon as possible.

Because this is a confidential matter of the Xiang family, it must not be known to outsiders.

Fan Zeng frowned and shook his head: "Not enough, the number is too small. This number is not enough to accomplish anything. If we want to strengthen the Xiang family, we can only resort to swallowing whales."

"What is the method of swallowing a whale?" Xiang Liang asked curiously.

A cold look appeared in Fan Zeng's eyes, and he said in a cold voice: "Start with other nobles."

heard.

Xiang Liang's complexion changed slightly.

Doesn't this mean that they are fighting in the same room?
Fan Zeng closed his eyes slightly and said coldly: "This time the power of other nobles has been greatly weakened. If the Xiang family can seize the opportunity to swallow the population of other nobles, the strength that the Xiang family can pull out will be at least doubled. If Able to integrate nearby dead people and bandits, the Xiang family can control nearly ten thousand soldiers."

"Even if there are not ten thousand people, there must be seven to eight thousand people."

Hearing Fan Zeng's words, Xiang Liang's eyes moved slightly, but he was still a little uneasy and said: "Is this a little too much? After all, we are the same nobles of the Six Kingdoms, fighting in the same room? If this spreads out, it may attract criticism, and even cause trouble for other people." Isn’t there something wrong with the nobles targeting you?”

Fan Zeng sneered and said nonchalantly: "Direct annexation is of course not possible, but we can gather the scattered nobles, and then strengthen control step by step, and finally make these nobles become vassals of the Xiang family, and the resources and population in the hands of these nobles will naturally fall. It fell into the hands of the Xiang family."

Xiang Liang's eyes lit up when he heard Fan Zeng's words.

Xiang Yu was also greatly moved.
