Fusu invited several leaders of the 500 people to a banquet to welcome them, while the others were invited by the soldiers of Shangjun to drink together.The companions at the banquet were all the principals in Shangjun City, including Meng Tian, ​​Chen Ping, Han Xin and others.

Thirty days after the wine and the five flavors of the food, Fusu asked the crowd: "I heard that Zhang Zifang once assassinated Emperor Qin Shi in Bolangsha, and one of the strong men smashed one of the Qin Emperor's chariots with a hammer in his hand. , is there such a thing?"

Cang Haijun chuckled and said: "Unexpectedly, Mr. Fusu knew all about this. Yes, it was I, Tian Ba, who assassinated Qin Emperor Yingzheng in Nabo Langsha back then. You are his eldest son. Do you want to Avenge your father?" He stared at Fusu's face without blinking.

"Haha, Brother Tian's words are too serious." Fusu burst out laughing and said, "I know that Brother Tian is from Qi State, and it's for you Qi State. After taking down the land of Qi, the first emperor drove King Qi into the forest. You just set fire to him and starved him to death. Thinking about it, you are just trying to vent your anger on the people of Qi. As the saying goes, each is his own master, so what can I blame? And Bo Langsha assassinated you, didn’t you succeed? Today I raised this matter just to expose this matter."

Cang Haijun calmed down after hearing this, and said with shame: "This is Tian who thinks too much, young master is really a broad-minded person, I must never be as good as you. I will punish myself for three cups. This is to make amends to the young master." As he spoke, he poured three full glasses of wine and drank them all in one gulp.

A man dressed as a scribe who came with Mr. Canghai chuckled and said, "Mr. Canghai's apology is fake, but it is true that he wants to get over his alcohol addiction." His words made everyone at the banquet burst into laughter , this unhappiness was exposed in this way.

Fusu looked carefully at the scribe and remembered his appearance in his heart, and after offering a toast to everyone, he continued: "Since Canghai Lord, you are willing to take such a big risk for Qi, why don't you go now that Qi is re-established?" How about Linzi helping them expand their borders? I can see that with your abilities, Master Canghai, you can even be a general."

"Hey, I have lost confidence in Qi State." Cang Haijun said with a wry smile, "The assassination failed back then, and I went to the old land of Qi State when I was in exile, but unexpectedly, it was not accepted by the local people, and some even wanted to tie me up. Give it to the people of Qin as a reward. If I hadn’t noticed it earlier, it would already be a pile of bones. I also went there at the beginning of Qi, and wanted to do something for the motherland. I am very happy, if I really become an official, I am afraid I will have to work with these people who only know the immediate interests, I really can't do these things, so I finally gave up the idea of ​​​​being an official in Qi." Cang Haijun said emphatically sighed.

"Mr. Canghai, just rest assured. We don't have any struggles like those in Qi or other countries. Everyone's purpose is to help the prince ascend to the throne. You can definitely show your strengths here." Chen Ping toasted him with a glass of wine. Afterwards.

"I can see that the prince is an open-minded person, and my Tian Ba's life will be handed over to the prince." Cang Haijun said that he had changed the title of "son" to "prince" to show that he was in the Fusu camp. a member of the

"It is really my blessing to Fusu to get the help of Lord Canghai. Come, let me offer you a toast." Fusu drank a glass of wine with a smile on his face.

At this time, one of the leaders said: "Prince, I am also from Qi, but like Lord Canghai, I can't understand those courtiers who only know how to fight to the death in the country and don't want to make progress, so I resigned from the official position. Now I have a There is one thing to tell the prince, which has never been known to anyone except the two countries involved."

"Oh? What's the matter?" Han Xin asked curiously after drinking some wine.

"That means Qi and Zhao formed an alliance a month ago, and they formed an offensive and defensive alliance to fight against the attacks from the Chu people and the Qin people."

"Qi Zhao alliance?" Meng Tian and others were a little surprised. The two countries are separated by several counties, and it is very difficult to communicate with each other. How could they think of forming an alliance?

"Yes," the man continued, "I was still in the city of Linzi when this happened. King Zhao personally wrote the letter of alliance. King Qi also agreed to King Zhao's request. I think there will be no mistakes."

Hearing the news, Chen Ping's eyes sparkled, and he said immediately: "Although this news is rare, it doesn't have much to do with us. The purpose of Qi and Zhao's alliance is to deal with Chu and Qin. They and us There haven't been any direct conflicts yet. Too much business to talk about today, let's talk about other things." And so he changed the subject.

Seeing Chen Ping's actions, Fu Su knew that he had his own thoughts on this matter, but because he was worried about these newcomers, he didn't say it out on the spot, so he also helped him by saying: "Mr. Yes, the purpose of today is to clean up the dust for you, and we will talk about other business matters after you have settled down. Today I only talk about friendship, and I won’t talk about other things.”

There was another round of toasting and drinking, and everyone drank to their heart's content, and then went back separately.However, Chen Ping gave Meng Tian, ​​Han Xin and others a wink, and the two stayed at the end.After everyone had left, Fusu, Han Xin, Chen Ping, and Meng Tian walked on the path in the backyard, talking about future arrangements while sobering up.

After talking about this, Fusu asked Chen Pingdao: "What is the purpose of Mr. Chen showing us all with his eyes just now?"

Chen Ping said solemnly: "Didn't the prince hear that man said that Qi and Zhao formed an alliance? This is not good for us."

Han Xin seemed to have thought of something, but he didn't speak, but Meng Tian didn't understand the meaning of Chen Ping's words, and asked: "What does Mr. Chen mean by saying that it is not good for us? You know, Qi and Zhao are far away from our Shangjun. , will they still attack us after forming an alliance?"

"The general doesn't know something. It seems that Qi and Zhao Erguojin are far away from us and not much of a threat, but once the two countries join forces, their strength will double, and some counties near them will definitely fall into their hands. , then we may connect with their lands, and then we will become enemies. And once they grow bigger, they may become as powerful as the current state of Chu. After we wiped out Huhai Afterwards, we may face Qi, Zhao, and Chu, three countries that are equal in strength to ours, and the prince's plan to seize the Central Plains will face considerable resistance." Chen Ping said without worry.

Meng Tian just didn't think about this problem. Now that he heard Chen Ping mention it, he also understood it. He nodded and said, "This is indeed a problem. Does Mr. Chen have any way to solve it?"

Chen Ping chuckled, and looked at Han Dao: "I think General Han has some concerns in his mind, why don't you and I talk about it together for the prince and General Meng to have a look at it, what do you think?"

Han Xin smiled and said, "Then let Mr. Chen talk first."

Chen Ping didn't give in, and thought for a while and said: "Actually, the alliance between Qi and Zhao has just begun, and the two sides must not trust each other. We can send people to the two countries to spread rumors, so that both sides will have suspicions. The alliance of the two countries naturally ceases to exist. What do you think of my thinking?"

Fu Su nodded and said: "Mr. Chen's idea coincides with mine. As long as we do this, there may be two fewer enemies in the future." He looked around and just smiled, but he was noncommittal. Han Dao: "Don't you have a better way? Why do you feel dismissive of our ideas?"

Han Xin hurriedly said: "How dare I? It's just that I have a calculation, which may be more beneficial to us than yours." He paused, looked at the three pairs of eyes staring at him, and continued, "We also It can be guessed that the purpose of Qi and Zhao's alliance is to fight against Qin and Chu, and the people who are most afraid of their alliance are Chu people. After all, they have just defeated Qi and Qin, and their military power is in full swing. The old country even attacked the Qi country, and now the two countries will join hands to threaten him. If they know about this, they will definitely break their alliance before Qi and Zhao's alliance is not yet mature, and may even break the alliance between the two countries. Send troops to attack Qi before the strength grows enough to compete with our own. As long as Qi, Zhao, and Chu attack each other, their vitality will be greatly damaged, and we will be able to reap the benefits of fishing at that time."

After Sannian heard his plan, they clapped their hands together and said: "General Han's plan is indeed very good, we just need to let the people of Chu know that Qi and Zhao form an alliance without any thought, and everything will develop in our favor. "

"We have to keep this matter from Cang Haijun and others. After all, many of them are Qi people. Although they have taken refuge with the prince now, it is better not to let them know if their loyalty cannot be confirmed." Chen Ping added One sentence.

Fusu also knew the truth of being defensive, nodded and said: "Then let's secretly ask the trusted people to handle this matter."

In the next few days, Fusu began to accommodate the five hundred people who had been invited by Zhang Liang from other countries to help him.Although the number of these people is not too many, Fusu found that most of these people are talents with special skills. For example, Cang Haijun is a man of great strength and poverty, who is used to fighting, and there are also people who are good at making ordnance, and know the geography of various places, etc. Wait, the arrival of these people gave Fusu more confidence in fighting against Hu Hai and others.At the same time, he did not forget the foundation of his foothold, which is the cavalry. After training for a period of time, the cavalry under his command already had more than [-]% of the horsemanship of the Huns. Fight and get some experience from it.

On the other hand, under Chen Ping's arrangement, the plan to go to Chu to reveal the news of the Qi-Zhao alliance to the Chu people has also begun to be implemented. In this winter, the peaceful Shangjun City is working hard to accumulate energy
