Chapter 41

at the same time.

Surabaya County, Pengcheng.

Xiang Yu returned with his army and stationed outside the city, casting a layer of gloom over the already treacherous city.

His uncle Xiang Liang was defeated, killing half of Chu's elite, but he himself defeated the Qin army in Huaiyang. Some people even thought that if he was given more time, he would be able to wipe out the Qin army.

Everyone is waiting for King Chu Xiongxin to give the final result, how to deal with and arrange his position.

In Xiang Yu's army account.

"Wait for the king's edict to General Xiang, I will submit the letter, please beg you to be the general." Chen Luo's tone was calm, but confident and powerful.

Han Xin pursed his lips: "Jiang Ning, I have heard a lot of unfavorable rumors against General Xiang in recent days, saying that Lord Wu An was defeated and died and could not be punished, so he will be punished by General Xiang."

"These things are just spread by good people." Chen Luo chuckled, "The king's foundation is shallow, and he was supported by Mrs. Xiang, so if he wants to play a trick of balance, he will definitely not continue to suppress Xiang Yu."

Han Xin scratched his head: "Okay."

When talking about this topic, he couldn't figure out the twists and turns, but choosing to trust Chen Luo seemed to be the best choice.

"Afterwards, the Qin army surrounded us from both sides. I'm afraid we will have to divide our forces with General Xiang to fight against him. It's just a pity that you, Han Xin, may not be able to directly become the commander-in-chief of the first army." Chen Luo changed the subject and talked about what Han Xin is good at.

Sure enough, Han Xin's eyes lit up: "If it is the army of Po Wangli, they have been besieged for more than a month, their morale must be low, and they are afraid of the Chu army. If you want to attack them, you should harass them more to exhaust your army. The battlefield should be set in the mountains, and the troops should be divided to attack behind them. Well... on the way to Pengcheng, I chose two favorite battlefields, respectively..."

After a long speech, he didn't catch his breath, and continued: "If we go to Pozhanghan and Xinsheng, their greatest advantage is cavalry. We should defend the city, or fight with them in dense water systems to limit the opponent's performance. I haven't done field research here, but..."

Listening to Han Xin's explanation, Chen Luo would ask some questions about his own doubts from time to time.

After getting the answer, he often has a feeling of sudden enlightenment.

Han Xin's thinking is indeed clear.

The place where Chen Luo had doubts was that when Han Xin described the general direction strategy to himself, he felt that it belonged to "common sense", so he skipped it, which caused him to not understand.

After traveling all the way these days, after Han Xin's teaching and explanation, the value of his military strategy directly increased by 2 points, to 45.

Of course, this is because the value of his own military strategy is too low, so the improvement is more obvious.

After talking about the military affairs, the two talked and laughed for a while about the interesting things in the army recently.

At this time, there was a commotion outside the tent, which was mixed with the sound of "The king's order has arrived".

"After the king's arrangement, I guess I will also be called over." Chen Luo said lightly, looking towards the tent door.

The news that he went to Xiang Yu's army must not be concealed, and since he suffered a big defeat with the army, Situ's position probably cannot be kept.

What's more, in the past few days, Chen Luo got the news.

King Xiongxin of Chu advocated the restoration of the Chu system during the Warring States Period. Of course, this was just a pretext. His most fundamental intention was to use this to replace some important official positions with his own cronies during the adjustment of the official system.

And the reason for "restoring the Chu system" is too legitimate, even if it is opposed by a small number of people, those people will definitely not be able to reason.

I belong to the group of people who have been affected.

His official position as a Situ was conferred shortly after Xiang Liang's uprising, and it was not an official position in the Chu system, but an official position in the Zhou Dynasty and Qilu and other Central Plains regions.

It's just that at the beginning of the incident, all matters were in the initial stage, and no one would care so much, not to mention that Chen Luo's status in the army was very high at that time, and no one would say anything like "not in line with the rules".

He got up slowly, and when he walked out of the tent door, he happened to see Xiang Yu's personal guards coming.

"I was mentioned in the king's decree, so General Xiang came to me?" Chen Luo smiled.

"Yes." The guard nodded respectfully.

Seeing the guard's attitude, he responded easily, "I see."

The place where Xiang Yu's main tent was set up was not far from his tent.

After walking briskly for three or four minutes, he entered the main tent and saw the envoy Wang standing in the middle of the big tent.

"My servant, Chen Luo, has met the envoy of the king." Seeing the other party turn around, Chen Luo saluted.

The other party smiled and said kindly: "I'm here to congratulate Chen Zuoyin first."

Then he took out a volume of silk script and read: "The king Shang Shengming restored the Chu system, and the former Situ Chen Luo warned Wu Anjun before the battle, so the previous defeat is not his fault. I transferred you to Zuo Yin, I hope you will be loyal to the king."

In fact, these reasons are completely nonsense.

I am almost the same body as Xiang Yu, if I don't want to suppress Xiang Yu, then I will not be demoted too badly.

Compared with the original Situ, Zuo Yin must be regarded as a demotion, but this official position is equally important. Yin can be interpreted as the meaning of "long, upright". Therefore, in the Chu system, most of the official positions with the word Yin are in the court, or are in charge of the field.

As for Chen Luo's current duties as Zuo Yin, he was in charge of leading the army during the war, and was one of the chiefs of the judiciary when there was no war.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." According to the procedure, Chen Luo bowed and thanked, and moved his eyes to the first place.

Chen Luo didn't come too early, so he missed the process of Wang Envoy announcing Xiang Yu's status.

And he was a little puzzled when he noticed that there was some anger in Xiang Yu's eyes.

He was assigned as Zuo Yin, so according to common sense, Xiang Yu's position should not be too low.

After the envoy finished his announcement, before leaving the big tent, Chen Luo said politely, "Why don't the envoy stay and eat at the banquet before leaving?"

But the other party waved his hand: "Thank you Chen Zuoyin for your kindness, the villain has to read the king's will to Pei Gong who came with you all."

"Oh?" Chen Luo squinted his eyes. He was a little surprised that Liu Bang was appointed an official by the King of Chu so quickly, "I'll send the king to the camp."

On the way to send someone off, Chen Luo politely and quietly slipped a few baht of gold to the other party.

Received a bribe that exceeded the normal standard, the king's envoy immediately beamed with joy. Under such circumstances, Chen Luo successfully found out about Liu Bang's appointment as an official.

Returning to the main tent, Chen Luo approached Xiang Yu and asked in a low voice, "Brother Yu, what position did the king arrange for you this time? It seems that you are offended."

"Si Bai." Xiang Yu spit out these two words coldly. After Wang Envoy left, his face became completely gloomy.

"How come?" Chen Luo was taken aback.

But after thinking about it for a while, he understood Xiong Xin's intentions for such an arrangement.

Then he pursed his lips and said: "Brother Yu, don't be angry, I'll just say what is the king's intention of arranging me to be Zuo Yin, it seems that the reason is on you."

"Jiang Ning, what do you mean?" Xiang Yu asked with a frown. He was quite dissatisfied with Xiong Xin's arrangement, and he completely thought that Xiong Xin was targeting him and Xiang.

It's just that judging from Chen Luo's current performance, it seems that he thought it simply, so Xiong Xin's arrangement turned out to have other meanings?
 Thank you for your votes these days!
