Chapter 17 Queen Huai

end of october.

Surabaya County, Pengcheng.

This place is very close to Xiangxian County, the underground county of Xiang's ancestors, so when Xiang Liang's army chose to station here, Xiang Yu also said with emotion: "It's a happy life to return home with wealth and honor."

In the camp of the army.

Xiang Liang sat at the top, no longer the image of the amicable elder in Xiang's mansion in Kuaiji, but wearing armor, with the feeling that the superior is not angry and arrogant.

Sitting on his left is Xiang Yu. Relying on his performance on the battlefield these days, almost everyone praised this young general.

There is no other reason.Xiang Yu fought too fiercely. He dared to rush into the enemy army with a few cavalry alone, and after defeating the opponent, he was able to leave unscathed.

On the lower right of Xiang Liang is sitting Xiang Chan, who behaves mediocrely during the war these days, but his seniority is very high among the Xiang family, so it is not surprising that he is in this position.

And now Chen Luo, who was the number one adviser in the army, was sitting beside Xiang Yu in a daze.

Now that Xiang Liang had summoned almost all the senior officials in the army to discuss the matter, he probably guessed that it had something to do with his suggestion a few days ago.

If that's the case, then I might really have to come forward to answer the conversation later, and I can't be a spoiled fish.

After waiting for everyone to arrive, Xiang Liang, who was at the head, said in a calm tone: "The Qin army left Guanzhong in two groups not long ago, and wanted to conquer us. Unlike the waste from local counties and counties, most of the troops dispatched from Guanzhong were former Great Wall Legion, and they were all Qin's battle-hardened divisions."

After the words fell, many people in the tent gasped.

Jiujiu old Qin, went to the national crisis together.No bleeding, no truce!

At the beginning when the Qin people came east, under the encouragement of the military merit system, the people of the six countries were cast into a psychological shadow.

And now it is only more than ten years since Qin destroyed the world. Among the people present, there are even those who have fought against Qin soldiers in person on the battlefield, and they understand how brave the real Qin people are.

Even Xiang Liang, who hated Qin the most, had to admit that the soldiers of the Qin army were indeed elite.

Chen Ying answered, "I heard that King Chen has fought against the Qin army several times, but he lost troops and lost two cities in a row."

Dongjiang County in Donghai County had an uprising, and he was promoted as the leader of the leadership.

It's just that he was always loyal, and after returning home, my mother persuaded him that "there are no rich and powerful people in your Chen family ancestors, and it is not a good thing for you to suddenly gain such a reputation."

Therefore, Chen Ying gave up on becoming king on his own, and chose to lead his troops to defect to Xiang Liang, who led the eight thousand children from the east of the river to the west.
Xiang Chan nodded, with lingering fears in his heart, he said: "It seems that this Qin army is indeed formidable, even as powerful as King Chen, it is difficult to parry."

Xiang Yu glanced at his Ji father, and said clearly: "Let me lead [-] elite soldiers, enough to break it, why worry too much."

For his uncle, Xiang Yu has an average opinion, and he is not as convinced of Xiang Chan as he is of Xiang Liang.

Xiang Chan shook his head: "Yu'er, you don't understand, Qin's soldiers are brave and well-equipped. It's not like the soldiers under the county guards you confronted these days, you can rush into the formation at will..."

When Chen Luo heard this, she just turned her head and covered her mouth with a chuckle.

If you really give Xiang Yu [-] elite soldiers, it will really kill the Qin army. The way the Overlord marches and fights is indeed difficult for ordinary people to understand.

"Third brother, why do you want to gain the prestige of the enemy?" Xiang Liang, the leader, interrupted him.

If these words are spread, it will inevitably stir up the morale of the army for a while.

Therefore, Xiang Liang secretly decided that Xiang Chan could not be appointed to the core position in the future.

"Yes..." Xiang Tang bowed his head in a low voice.

Xiang Liang rubbed his brows, and said in a deep voice: "I summoned you here today not to worry about the encirclement and suppression by the Qin army. King Huai was innocent back then, but the Qin people detained him to death. Countless Chu people felt ashamed, angry and missed him.

At that time, Chu Nangong said, "Although there are three families in Chu, Chu will die when Qin dies." It is our responsibility to restore the glory of Chu State back then.

Although King Chen took the lead in the rebellion and had a great momentum, I think the reputation accumulated in Chu is still not as good as those kings who ruled Chu in the past. "

After what he said, those people under the seat had some vague guesses, but they didn't make a sound.

But Xiang Liang's gaze turned to the left, and Chen Luo knew that it was time for him to come out and speak out.

He stood up and cupped his hands and said, "It was outrageous that King Huai was imprisoned by Qin without trust. After Qin destroyed all the countries, the nobles from all countries were sent to Xianyang. The Xiang family has been the general of Chu for generations. After the incident, they wanted to revitalize the great Chu. They searched hard for the descendants of the royal family back then. They finally found something in the past few days. They found the grandson of King Huai who was living abroad."

After Chen Luo said this, everyone in the tent suddenly became clear.

Before that, Xiang Liang only called himself "General Chu", and Chen Sheng also tried to send people to recruit Xiang Liang and the others.

It's just that after Chen Luo persuaded Xiang Liang and pointed out his interests, Xiang Liang rejected the envoy sent by Chen Sheng.

And after the messenger replied Xiang Liang's answer and the news of seeing Chen Luo in his account, Chen Sheng stopped contacting Xiang Liang and the others, but did not target them.

Only in this way, a new contradiction has arisen.

If Xiang Liang claims to be a general, no matter how high his status is under his command, he cannot be named a marquis or uncle.

It was still early days when the incident started, and this contradiction was not prominent. After all, the status of everyone in the account did not need to be highlighted by official positions. After a battle was won, Xiang Liang would also reward and distribute property.

But if it continues like this, this tiny contradiction will eventually intensify.

Many people think that by that time, Xiang Liang will become king on his own, and their status will also rise.

But they didn't expect Xiang Liang to choose another way to solve this problem.

At this time, a personal guard opened the tent door and brought a young man into the tent.

Seeing this, Xiang Liang stood up and said courteously, "Welcome to the Queen Huai!"

Everyone immediately stood up and saluted like Xiang Liang.

And Chen Luo carefully looked at Xiong Xin, the grandson of King Huai of Chu who was brought into the big tent, who was standing two or three steps in front of him.

His complexion was dark and his figure was a little thin. Even though he was wearing luxurious clothes, he couldn't hide the embarrassment in his eyes.

Looking at the big figures saluting to him in the tent, Xiong Xin turned his head stiffly, obviously not knowing what he should do next.

A few days ago, he was just a shepherd, and he had never seen this scene at all.

Chen Luo reminded softly: "You are the Empress Huai, go and sit at the top. General Xiang will take care of the next thing."

After being reminded, Xiong Xin cast a grateful look at Chen Luo, and he walked quickly to Xiang Liang's side.

And Xiang Liang took Xiong Xin's thin and thin hand, raised it high and said: "This is after the royal family of Great Chu. I want to restore Great Chu and destroy Tyrant Qin. I will make Xiong Xin the current King of Chu. What do you think?"

Naturally, no one spoke out against it, and no one dared to say so.

After all, everyone in the tent knew in their hearts that even if the King of Chu was in charge, the real person in charge was Xiang Liang.

 By the way, what time do you like to update, I feel that I need to update at a fixed time, do you have any suggestions?
