Ni Chu

Not long after Fan Zeng persuaded Xiang Yu.Zhang Han sent Sima Xin to personally go to the camp of the Chu army to discuss with Xiang Yu about the surrender of the Qin army.

This time is Zhang Han's last hope.If Xiang Yu does not allow him to surrender.His only way out is to lead the Qin army and the Chu army to fight to the death.

I heard that it was Sima Xin who came to discuss the surrender of the Qin army.Xiang Yu and Fan Zeng greeted them out of the gate.

The reason why Xiang Yu treated Sima Xin with courtesy.This is not without reason.Back then when Sima Xin was in charge of Qin Liyang Prison.Xiang Liang once committed a crime and was saved by him.Mrs. Xiang always took care of one of his favors.This time Zhang Han sent him.It was also a last-ditch effort.He wanted to use his kindness to the Xiang family to promote the surrender of the Qin army to the Chu army.

"I don't know that General Sima will come in person. Xiang Yu is far away to welcome you. Please don't blame the general." When Xiang Yu and Fan Zeng walked out of the gate.Sima Xin was already waiting there.Xiang Yu cupped his fists and saluted, "General, please come into the camp to talk."

Sima Xin quickly returned the salute to Xiang Yu and said: "The defeated general bows down to the great general of Chu. The general is so polite. Sima Xin is really ashamed."

After returning to the tent with Sima Xin.The three people sit down as guests and hosts.Xiang Yu pretended not to know why Sima Xin came to the camp of the Chu army and said, "General Sima has always been in front of Zhang Han's camp. Why did he suddenly come to our camp?"

Sima Xin bowed slightly.First he bowed to Xiang Yu and then to Fan Zeng and said: "General, General Fan. The last general came to your army. There is one thing I want to ask you two. Please give us the 20 yuan. A way out for the homeless."

"Oh." Xiang Yu tilted his head.Pretending to be puzzled, he asked: "How did General Sima say this? The Qin and Chu armies are facing each other. They are each masters. How can you leave a way for your army to survive?"

Sima Xin bowed his body.Very humbly said to Xiang Yu: "The general doesn't know something. General Zhang Han led us to fight for three years. Julu was defeated. Qin II blamed Zhao Gao. Zhao Gao was afraid of taking responsibility. He pushed all the responsibilities to me. Now I will die when I return to Xianyang. I will die in a decisive battle with the Great Chu army. The only way to survive is to surrender to the Chu army. But the general has repeatedly refused our army to surrender. Isn’t it just that we are cut off? A way for 20 people to survive."

Xiang Yu held his forehead with one hand.Make a very troubled expression.After a while, he raised his head and said to Sima Xin: "General Sima. The envoy sent by the former Fangui army did indeed propose to surrender to our army. But you are not unaware. Now the two armies are fighting. Both sides are fighting for victory. There is no need to go to the extreme. If Zhang Han had sent the general here earlier, I would not have agreed. How about this. You go back and tell Zhang Han immediately. I accept his surrender."

Sima Xin imagined many scenarios on the way here.Only Xiang Yu never imagined that Xiang Yu would agree to their surrender so easily.He looked at Xiang Yu in a daze.There was a look of confusion on his face.

If Xiang Yu flatly rejects his request.He might still feel better.At that time, he will rely on the friendship between the two parties.Have a good relationship with Xiang Yu condom.In that case Xiang Yu agreed to their surrender again.Instead, he would feel much more at ease.

"Great General. General Zhang Han is indeed sincerely seeking refuge this time. The last general has something to say and I don't know whether to say it or not." Sima Xin hesitated.In the end, I decided to express my worries: "The Battle of Dingtao. General Xiang Liang died in battle. General Zhang Han still feels very guilty when he thinks about this incident. The last general is worried that the general can't let go of his hatred. Wait until our army surrenders." He also killed General Zhang Han. That is not what a hero does."

After listening to Sima Xin's words.Xiang Yu and Fan Zeng glanced at each other.Then the two looked up and laughed.

Sima Xin's hairs stood on end from their laughter.He looked at them both puzzled.I wanted to ask them what they were laughing at.But dare not.The expression on his face was very embarrassing.

Fan Zeng saw Sima Xin showing embarrassment.He smiled and said to him: "General Sima. You look down on our great general too much. The great general promises to accept your surrender. Since he said he agreed to accept your surrender, he will definitely not go back on his word. Just tell General Zhang Han when you go back. Feel free to surrender. .No harm will be done in the future.”

Xiang Yu also smiled and shook his head.After Fan Zeng finished speaking.He then said to Sima Xin: "If I don't sincerely accept your army's surrender, how can I agree. A man will keep his promise. If I agree, how can I go back on my word? After General Sima returns, please tell General Zhang Han. I will go to Huan with him tomorrow." South made a covenant."

Got the promise of Xiang Yu and Fan Zeng.Sima Xin put his heart into his stomach.He exchanged pleasantries with Xiang Yu and Fan Zeng for a while but did not accept Fan Zeng's invitation to stay in the Chu army camp for dinner.Hastily rushed back to the Qin army barracks.

Early the next morning.Zhang Han led a group of guards.Dressed up really carefully.He put on his armor.Polish your boots to a shine.He stepped on his horse and rushed towards Huannan in a very majestic manner.

When Zhang Han arrived at Huannan.Xiang Yu had been waiting there for a long time.

Xiang Yu rode on a Wuzhui horse.Stand proudly against the wind.The battle flag of the Chu Army danced "hula-la" in the wind.It added a bit of arrogance to him standing under the banner.

From a distance, he saw Xiang Yu waiting there.Zhang Han hurriedly mobilized his horse to meet Xiang Yu.When he was still thirty or fifty steps away from Xiang Yu.He rolled over and jumped off the horse.Walked and ran over.

"The defeated general Zhang Han. Kowtow to the great general of Chu." He ran to Xiang Yu.Zhang Han half knelt on the ground.Clasped fists with both hands raised high above the head and said to Xiang Yu: "The last general is sorry for the general. He really deserves to die. I have been pardoned by the general. I am extremely terrified."

Zhang Han bowed to the ground.Xiang Yu quickly jumped off his horse.He stretched out his hands to help him up.After picking up Zhang Han.Xiang Yu patted him on the shoulder and said: "General Zhang. You and I were enemies that day. Although the death of Uncle Dingtao was the result of the general alone, but you and I are each masters. If it was the general who was besieged that day, it must be uncle I will definitely kill the killer and leave no room for it. Now the general is willing to submit to me, Great Chu. It is really a blessing for Great Chu. The world is lucky. You and I should forget the past from today. Work together. Overthrow the Tyrant Qin. Restore the Six Kingdoms."

After being lifted up by Xiang Yu.Zhang Han supported Xiang Yu's forearm with both hands.I was moved to tears.After choking for a long time, he said: "Great general. You are not talented. Three years ago, I led troops in Guanzhong to fight against various rebels. I have been diligent and diligent. I have made a lot of military exploits. To be honest, I was killed in Julu a few days ago. Defeated by the great general. I wanted to ask Xianyang for help and then fight against the Chu army. I never thought that Zhao Gao not only refused to send troops, but impeached us in front of the Second King. He said that we were not good in the battle. He wanted to recall us Xianyang was ruined. I had no choice but to lead my army to surrender to the general.”

Speaking of which.Zhang Han sighed.Then he said: "Now Shaorong and the 20 army have nowhere to go. It is difficult for a family to return to the general. I am grateful to the general for not giving up. Let go of the past. Shaorong swore again today. From the date of the signing of the covenant. I was born as a general. Death is the general's ghost. Even if you are heartbroken, you must repay the general for taking him in."

Xiang Yu took Zhang Han's hand.Before meeting Zhang Han.He is still full of hatred for Zhang Han.But when I really saw Zhang Han.When I heard him say so much helplessness himself.Can't help but have a feeling of sympathy and sympathy.

"General Zhang. From then on, I, Xiang Ji, and you are a family. Today I will designate you as 'King Yong' and march westward with our army. You are a famous general. With your help. In the future, I will definitely fight on the battlefield." Much more handy."

"I would like to obey the general's order." I heard that Xiang Yu said that he would go forward with the army.Zhang Han hastily responded.

Zhang Han was named "King Yong".Xiang Yu looked at Sima Xin who came with Zhang Han.He said to him: "General Sima. General Zhang is now acting with the army. You will be the general who surrendered to the Qin army. Lead the army to open the way for the army. We will go straight to Guanzhong. Overthrow the tyrant Qin."

Sima Xin heard that Xiang Yu wanted him to be a general.I was taken aback for a moment.Then he looked at Zhang Han.Seeing Zhang Han's calm face.He just took a step forward and accepted the appointment.

After 20 Qin troops surrendered.The coalition forces with 40 princes marched towards Xianyang mightily.There were not many obstacles along the way.It didn't take long to come to the vicinity of Xin'an.

this way.Although there was no resistance.But the coalition's march was not smooth.After Qin Jun surrendered.Many officers and soldiers of the Chu army and the coalition of princes who had fought against the Qin army believed that the Qin army had oppressed them severely in the past.This time is your chance for revenge.

"Hey. You. What are you looking at. What about you. Come here." A group of surrendered Qin troops were patrolling.Several Chu soldiers came towards them.One of the soldiers of the Chu army waved to the leader of the Qin army.

The Qin army officer was stunned.At first I didn't come back to my senses.The Chu soldier who waved to him then shouted again: "What are you in a daze for? It's about you. Are you deaf or something?"

The Qin army officer was scolded by the Chu army soldiers.frowned.But he didn't say anything.He just reluctantly walked in front of those Chu soldiers, bowed his hands to them and said, "What advice does this military lord have for me?"

The Chu soldier pulled his lips upwards.Said to the Qin Army officer: "I don't have anything to advise. It's just that our elder brother's shoes are dirty. You can dust him off."

"Forgive me, I can't do anything." The Qin Jun officer frowned.He thought that the soldiers of the Chu Army had asked him to do something urgent.Unexpectedly, it was deliberately to humiliate him.Immediately stood up straight and said: "If there is nothing wrong, I am going to patrol next."

"Patrol." The retreat of the Qin army officer did not make the Chu army soldiers give up provocation against him.He was about to turn around and leave.The soldiers of the Chu army stepped forward and grabbed him.He said to him: "You defeated soldiers. You are only worthy of shining shoes and feeding horses. Our camp has always been unbreakable. If you are expected to patrol, we will be like you. Sooner or later, we will be beaten on our knees and beg for mercy. "
