I have lived forever since the end of Qin Dynasty

Chapter 207
Changan.

Huaiyin Marquis Mansion, inside the study.

Han Xin sat quietly in front of the desk, with bamboo slips nearly two feet thick neatly stacked on the table.

"Oh, I didn't agree so easily before I knew it. I didn't expect to find me a tiring job." He rubbed his temples and sighed softly.

You must know how to arrange troops, march and fight, distribute food and grass, use terrain, etc., in his mind, they often come up naturally according to the situation of the war, without much thought at all, just like drinking water when you are thirsty, and drinking water when you are hungry. It's an instinctive reaction of the body to eat.

It is not an easy task to engrave the imagination in the mind on the book of war.

What's more, Han Xin wrote a kind of tactics in his study during the day, and often when he was lying in bed at night, he would come up with a new idea, so he overthrew it and started again the next day.

Such a workload is enormous.

He originally planned to write a total of seven volumes from recruitment and training to formation according to the terrain.

Now a year has passed, and he has only completed five and a half volumes.

If he came up with the idea of ​​writing a military book, then he probably would have slacked off a long time ago. It's just that he promised Chen Luo something, so he was so concerned that he didn't want to be perfunctory.

After flexing his wrist a bit, he held the brush with a somewhat sword-like appearance. After all, he had never systematically read and practiced calligraphy. Many times, Han Xin wanted to write his own ideas accurately, and he needed to ask others for advice. It is also the reason why he spent a year and has not yet finished writing this book of war.

"Tuk-tuk-tuk." The study door was knocked three times, and Han Xin raised his head, somewhat puzzled.

Have I been writing in the study for so long today?

On weekdays, except when the attendant prepared the meal and called him to eat, he would only come to remind him.

"Come in." After saying this, he got up and tidied up the bamboo slips on the table to avoid confusing their positions.

The attendant entered the room respectfully, saluted and said: "Master, at the beginning of March, Yang Xiahou was assassinated by the traitor Ji Yu on his way back to Chang'an..."

The bamboo slips in Han Xin's hand fell onto the copybook, and he turned around with extremely cold eyes.

The attendant who came to report the news trembled. Since serving Han Xin, he had never seen his lord look so scary.

Even though he knew that Han Xin was once a great general who fought on the battlefield and commanded millions of troops, his lord was silent in the mansion and stayed in the house all day long. In the past, Marquis Yangxia often came to visit, but in the past six months only Wuyang Hou and Yingyinhou have been here several times, and they are actually good servants to them.

Therefore, it is difficult for these two images to be unified in his heart. Until now, he seems to have caught a glimpse of Han Xin's side that has never been revealed in the mansion.

"Is Jiang Ning okay?" Han Xin blocked the scroll of bamboo slips that were rolling down from the table, and casually threw it aside. If Chen Luo died in an accident, he could stop writing the military book that he had written for nearly a year give up.

The attendant hurriedly shook his head, and hurriedly added: "My lord, I heard that although there were hundreds of rebels in the Wei state, but the Marquis of Yangxia was brave, and the nearby county captain led soldiers to provide timely support, so nothing happened."

"Yeah." Han Xin waved his hand distractedly, and after the attendant left, he snorted coldly, "Ji Yu? I think you're tired of working."

The next day.

The first thing Liu Bang announced in the morning was that Chen Luo was assassinated on the way.

The officials in the hall were shocked immediately.

If they were sorted by status, then Chen Luo was second only to the emperor, empress, princes and princes, and almost ranked in the top fifteen among the big Han.

But in terms of importance, Chen Luo is more important than Wu Rui, Ji Xin and other princes and kings, and can even be ranked in the top five of the big man!
How dare Ji Yu.

If he sent someone to assassinate Yang Xiahou, then most of his servants and most of Wei's courtiers would suffer.

At that time, after the Wei State is conquered, I am afraid that a large number of criminals will be sent to Chang'an, and the prison rooms will be filled with prisoners who once held high positions.

Prime Minister Xiao He was the first to stand up, bowed his hands and said, "Your Majesty, the traitor Ji Yu is a provocation to the majesty of the great man. Not to mention his rebellion, he even sent troops to assassinate Yang Xiahou, who holds an important position in the court. I suggest that General Zhou increase his troops, quickly break through the Wei State, and arrest him at the head of the Chang'an lord, as a punishment and to promote Heaven's prestige."

After he finished speaking, Han Xin Youyou, who was sitting at the front on the west side, stood up.

Most of the officials in the hall were stunned, including Xiao He, who also looked at him blankly.

Since the founding of the Great Han Dynasty, Han Xin's sense of presence in daily life has been reduced to a minimum. Most people can only see him in the early court, and it is even said that he never got up to make any suggestions.

After standing up, Han Xin said solemnly: "Your Majesty, Yang Xiahou is the doctor of history and my friend, and the rebel Ji Yu attacked him to challenge your dignity and look down on me.

Now is the season of spring plowing, and once again recruiting troops to quell the rebellion in Wei State will affect this year's harvest, so you send me to the front to command the army to fight, without increasing the number of troops, you can still destroy the rebels in advance and attack their king All. "

After finishing speaking, he smiled modestly. He remembered Chen Luo's previous advice, and he didn't say that he could reduce his troops to [-]. That would be too arrogant.

Hearing Han Xin's proposal, the eyes of the generals behind him glistened.

one Year!A whole year!

In this year, they have never seen the general again, and they have never seen the art of commanding soldiers on the battlefield like moving arms, and manipulating the army formation like playing with dishes.

Originally they thought that Liu Bang would dispatch Han Xin for the Wei rebellion, but in the end they only dispatched Zhou Bo, which made them very disappointed, thinking that Ji Yu was really unworthy.

It turned out that Han Xin took the initiative to invite Ying at this time.

Fan Kui, who was kneeling behind Han Xin's right, said in a low voice: "General, can you let me go together, and Kui can lead the vanguard for you."

Liu Bang, who was at the top, pondered for a moment.

After making eye contact with Xiao He, he said aloud: "Since General Han you take the initiative to ask for a fight, how can I refuse?

Tomorrow, you will leave for the front line to take over the position of the commander, let Zhou Bo be your lieutenant general, and capture the traitor Ji Yu to Chang'an as soon as possible. "

Han Xin nodded heavily: "The minister takes orders."

----

As for the story of Marquis Yangxia and Chang'an, the officials were startled and furious, saying: "The thief is still provoking him, and if he dares to hurt my minister, the crime will be death!"

Nai ordered Xin Tibo to attack Wei. ——"Historical Records: The Chronicles of Gaozu"

----

Xinzhi knew that Yang Xiahou was in danger on the road, so he paid homage to Liuhou to verify the authenticity.

In the early morning of the next day, Xin Zou said: "Yang Xiahou is an important minister of the Han Dynasty and a close friend of the minister. If the bandits attack, the minister is willing to destroy the soldiers."

Shangyun, order its sign. ——"Historical Records Huaiyin Marquis Family"
