Chapter 101 The World Situation

Ten days later.

The mighty team came from Chu, entered Hangu Pass, and came to the city of Xianyang.

Just from the decoration of the carriage and the composition of the personnel, it can be known that this is the envoy sent by King Chu Xiongxin.

Knowing their arrival, many of the two armies stationed near Xianyang City had great expectations in their hearts.

They have the credit for the death of Qin, so will they get less rewards?

If the rebellion succeeds, you will be rich and honored for a lifetime, and your descendants will be blessed.

But letting them know about the reward given by Xiong Xin almost exploded.

It's just too deceiving!

"This Xiong Xin has a good idea of ​​picking peaches, but he is greedy for life and fears death, and he can't get rid of his habit of shepherding. How can he take on the important task of leading thousands of people?" Chen Luoyou said.

Xiang Yu sneered: "This Xiong Xin thought really well, almost all of the north of Dahe was taken down by me alone, but now he made me King Zhai, only the Shang and Beidi counties north of Xianyang.

300 years ago, this was a barren land inhabited by soldiers, and now it is still occasionally invaded by Hu people. Is it used to reward ministers who have made great contributions?
What a joke! "

Liu Bang on the side heard the words and said lightly: "Brother Xiang, don't be too upset. The king of Chu once said that 'the first to enter Guanzhong is the king'. I didn't expect what he said did not mean 'the first to enter Guanzhong is the king of Guanzhong'. He really threw me into the land of Bashu to become the king of Han."

Now he seemed calm, but when he heard the specific content of the reward, he smashed his most beloved flagon in his military tent.

It can be said that among the people called to discuss together in this account, almost none of them were treated fairly.

Even Chen Luo, who didn't care about those rewards the most, laughed angrily when he learned that he was An Zejun who only sealed [-] households.

Xiang Yu took the case and said angrily: "Brother Liu and I have seven or eight out of ten merits for the death of Qin Dynasty, but this Xiong Xin only wants to seal off the corner of the two of us, but he calls himself the Emperor of Chu, and seals those who have no merits to live in the world..."

Speaking of this, he saw a certain King Han in the tent bowing his head in embarrassment, so he added: "King Han and King Wei followed Brother Liu to knock down Wuguan, and they are men of merit. But what meritorious deeds did the descendants of the other three countries achieve to restore their country after Qin's death?"

Chen Luo said aloud: "Although Xiong Xin is not clever, this arrangement still has some tricks. He restores the five kingdoms and seals his cronies, and these people will recognize his rule. In this way, his title of 'Emperor Chu' will be stabilized."

"I can make the emperor of Qin set himself on fire in Xianyang, but I'm still afraid of the 'Emperor Chu' who came from the countryside and wore gorgeous clothes for less than a year after he proclaimed himself emperor for less than a month?" Xiang Yu curled his lips disdainfully.

Listening to the "rebellious" remarks in the room, there was no special reaction.

Firstly, because they were dissatisfied with the award, they didn't have a good impression of Xiong Xin.

Secondly, what Xiang Yu said was the truth, as long as he was willing to make a move, fight back from Guanzhong to Chudi, and let Xiong Xin engrave Fusu again, there would be no problem at all.

After a moment of silence, Chen Luo shook his head and said, "Brother Yu, it's already the end of August. It's not reasonable for us to act rashly. Besides, Xiong Xin has recruited a lot of Qin troops, and their combat power is not weak."

When the news of Xin Sheng's death in anger and Fusu's suicide reached Zhang Han one after another, he knew that he had no chance of making a comeback.

If, as in history, Hu Hai was still the emperor, and Zhao Gao was beside him, Zhang Han would have resolutely turned his back on it long ago.

It's just that he is loyal to Fusu now, and he wants soldiers for soldiers, food for food, and he is benevolent and righteous to himself.

So Zhang Han recited Fusu's sentence "All the crimes are my fault, don't hurt anyone in the Guanzhong", and then ordered the deputy general to let him lead the army to surrender, and then committed suicide in the tent.

So this group of Qin troops who were besieging Sishui County, after Xiang Yu and the others captured Xianyang, became a strong force in Xiong Xin's hands.

Without even thinking about it, Xiang Yu raised his head and said, "I now have [-] cavalry and [-] infantry. Why should I be afraid? Even if winter is approaching, I can return to Pengcheng to enjoy the snow before October."

These words stunned everyone in the room for a moment, and even Chen Luo had to complain silently in his heart, "Fuck, force the king".

However, he still persuaded him rationally: "Brother Yu, if he wants to attack Chudi now, then the enemy will not only be Xiong Xin, but also people from all over the world."

"What do you mean by that?" Xiang Yu tilted his head, his eyes puzzled, "If I go out of Hangu, I'll tell you that I'm going back to the land of Chu to punish Du Fu, everyone, don't stop him, how can anyone be willing to be an enemy?"

Chen Luo sighed and said, "It was Xiong Xin who promised them the restoration of the country, so their interests are tied to Xiong Xin. Could it be that Brother Yu will kill Xiong Xin in the future, and seal them in their homeland like now, instead of rewarding the heroes of the Qin Dynasty?"

After being stunned for a while, Xiang Yu slowly spit out two words: "No."

Chen Luo went on to say: "This is one of the contradictions. Although none of the princes awarded by Xiong Xin is the opponent of Brother Yu, they have also accumulated a certain amount of strength in the troubled times. If Brother Yu leads the army eastward, they may still cause a lot of trouble."

"will not."

"Ah?" Looking at Xiang Yu, Chen Luo was puzzled.

Xiang Yu added: "I mean, even if those bastards try to stop me, they won't cause any trouble."

Chen Luo: "..."

After coughing dryly, Chen Luo continued: "Even though these lords are not the opponents of Brother Yu, the people of the world do not want to continue fighting after the rule of Tyranny Qin and a year of war.

Brother Yu's [-] cavalry are from Chu, and they are willing to go south with you and return to Pengcheng, but among the [-] infantry, only [-]% are from Chu, and [-]% of them are from Qin. I am afraid that before they leave Hangu, only [-] to [-] of them escaped. "

Discussing from the aspect of leading the army to fight, I am afraid that I will not have a chance to win Xiang Yu in 100 years. When he beats Xiang Yu in military strategy, I am afraid that it will be a time of vicissitudes.

But now he is advising Xiang Yu from the perspective of people's hearts.

Seeing that Xiang Yu was silent, Liu Bang was more interested and interjected, "What Jiang Ning said is to suggest that we don't do anything now, and go to stay in our own fief as Xiong Xin wants?"

"Yes." Chen Luo nodded.

"Then we will stay here forever?" Xiang Yu's tone was a little dissatisfied.

"Of course not, we just need to wait for the right time." Chen Luo smiled slightly.

Liu Bang was thoughtful, his eyes flickered, and he seemed to have a lot of thoughts.

But Xiang Yu asked: "Then what is the right time? If it never appears, will I stay in Shangjun and work with Huangsha all my life?"

Scanning around the people in the tent, Chen Luo leaned over to Xiang Yu and said softly, "The so-called opportunity is just to rest and recuperate, waiting for Xiong Xin to cause resentment. If there is no opportunity, Brother Yu will create an opportunity next year. That's all."
