The Summoning World of the Great Qin Empire

Chapter 700 The First Confrontation of Top Advisors

Liu Bang was slightly angry: "Zifang, if someone else pleads for this poor man, I can think about it, but you also pleaded for this common man!"

"Your Majesty calm down, and listen to my minister's words." Zhang Liang smiled slightly, bowed to Liu Bang, then stood up, waved at the guards, telling them to step back for now.

The chief guard looked at Liu Bang.

Liu Bang almost relied on Zhang Liang's strategy when he was fighting abroad, he could be said to be obedient to Zhang Liang, so he nodded immediately, and the guards also withdrew their swords when they saw this, and withdrew from the king's account.

"My lord please..."

"Say one more word, and I will ask the king to cut off your head right away!" Before Cao Wushang could finish his begging for mercy, Zhang Liang yelled angrily, scaring him back abruptly.

Seeing Cao Wushang shut up, Zhang Liang cupped his hands at Liu Bang and said, "According to my minister, he was still doing well last night, but when the king went down to bring Sun Wu today, he found out Sun Wu is gone, so one can imagine that Sun Wu must have escaped last night."

"En." Liu Bang nodded, and approved of Zhang Liang's statement: "What is the plan for now?"

Zhang Liangdao: "It is impossible for Sun Wu to escape and cross the river, so he can only hide in the army. Therefore, please order the whole army to be thoroughly investigated. As long as Sun Wu is in the army, he will definitely be found."

"Shan, pass on the order to thoroughly investigate the three armies immediately, and we must capture Sun Wu!" Liu Bang said through gritted teeth. It can be seen that he is eating to death now, and believes that Sun Wu is a traitor who secretly communicated with Qin.

There is no other way, when Sun Wu came up with a plan, he almost broke up the capital of Qin State, and even caused the assassination of the emperor.

Fazheng, Qin Hui, Zhang Juzheng and other six officials were all ashamed of this, wishing to put Sun Wu to death.

No matter how powerful Sun Wu is, he can't stand up to so many masters using big moves indiscriminately, and the most important point is that both Liu Bang and Chen Youliang believe that Bai Qi is on their side, and it happens that Bai Qi is in Guojia. He wrote to Liu Bang and others under his advice, implying that there was a detailed work among the coalition forces, although he did not directly state that the work was Sun Wu.

However, all the hints in the letter coincided with the conjectures of Liu Bang and Zhang Liang, which is equivalent to announcing Sun Wu's death sentence.

Sun Wu was really wronged. When he was just born and was about to make a big difference, even if Qin Hui and Fazheng were blamed, he would steal the chicken and lose the rice. It is really embarrassing.

Seeing that Liu Bang agreed to a plan, Zhang Liang continued: "When our Han army is mobilized, Chen Guo and Zhou Yu's army must be terrified. Second, please order the king to inform the two armies of our army's affairs. The army also checks the number of people, if Sun Wu is not mixed with our army, then he must be among these two armies."

There is one more thing that Zhang Liang didn't say, if he was in the other two armies, Chen Youliang would probably order to investigate, but it's not easy to talk about Ran Min's side.

The herald was still in the king's tent and did not leave, so Liu Bang said, "Have you remembered everything clearly?"

The herald licked the tip of the writing brush, wrote down the last word, then nodded and said, "I remember everything clearly!"

"Well, hurry up and execute it!" Liu Bang was also a little anxious, got out of the king's tent, and rode over there on horseback.

Lu Guan reported the situation to Liu Bang. He had asked someone to count it. Yesterday, he found that there was also a Huotoujun who disappeared together, and that person often delivered meals to Sun Wu.

As for the guy who was stripped of his clothes, knocked out and left in the field for a night of freezing, he was also brought in for questioning.

Zhang Liang believed that Sun Wu should have beaten the soldier unconscious and changed into the soldier's clothes before he got out.

Soon, a general came up to report that he had met Ran Min wearing single clothes outside the Han army barracks last night.

Hearing this incident, Zhang Liang was like a fly smelling blood, and immediately deduced that this incident had something to do with Ran Min.

The patrolling general reported that it was Ran Min who heard someone report that someone in the army came to the Han army to find someone to drink, which violated the military regulations, so he stayed there and wanted to catch a righteous one.

As soon as Zhang Liang heard this, he turned his head and looked at the generals: "Whoever drank with Ran Min's generals last night, stand up!"

Many generals look at me, I look at you, no one has moved, and there is also a ban on alcohol in the Han army. After all, it is time for battle, and generally people are not allowed to drink, unless the battle has achieved a staged victory, the superiors will Ordered to let go of drinking.

"What? Prime Minister You can't speak well?" Liu Bang's face was gloomy, and his eyes swept over the faces of all the generals.

"Pfft!"

Before Liu Bang finished scanning his eyes, he heard a sound coming from behind him. Looking back, Cao Wushang started to walk on his knees again...

This time Cao Wushang slapped his own ears while walking on his knees, until his nostrils were bleeding.

"It's the last general. The last general shouldn't be drinking with the generals in Ran Min's army. Please forgive me, Your Majesty!"

Liu Bang sneered: "It's you again, why do you do everything?" He looked a little out of breath.

Seeing someone stand up and admit it, the other generals also breathed a sigh of relief.

Zhang Liang waved his hand, and the rest of the generals retreated outside the tent and waited.

For a while, in this tent, only Han King Liu Bang, Lu Guan, Zhang Liang and Cao Wushang who was kneeling on the ground were left.

"My lord, judging from the various clues so far, this matter has something to do with Ran Min, but I have a very close relationship with Ran Min at present. If I am fully sure, it is better not to tear my face. .”

"Then according to the prime minister's words, what should I do?" Liu Bang also had some concerns, but if he knew that Zhou Yu had given way to the emperor of Qin, and as a result, all his lands in Han had been occupied by Qin, he would probably go to talk to Ran Min now. Desperately.

Zhang Liang pointed to Cao Wushang who was kneeling on the ground and said, "According to what Cao Wushang said, he should often drink with that general in Ran Min's army. Am I right or not?"

"Yes! Your Excellency, the Prime Minister, has bright eyes like torches!"

Zhang Liang sneered: "Your flattering is quite decent, but if Sun Wu escapes this time, it won't work if you are good at flattering again!"

Cao Wushang put on a bitter face, knelt on the ground and began to greet the [-]th generation ancestors of Sun Wu's family: Laozi served you with delicious food and drink every day, and didn't make things difficult for you, and even gave you women here from time to time. You treat Laozi like this...

He completely forgot that the money he extorted from Sun Wu was enough...

Zhang Liang said: "Last night, the general patrolling by our army met Ran Min. Ran Min said that he was squatting to catch the general who was drinking secretly. Now let someone inquire about it. If Ran Min punishes the general, it proves that Ran Min said It's true, if that general has nothing to do now, it means that Sun Wu must be in Ran Min's army!"

Such reasoning is watertight and well-founded.

Lu Guan kicked Cao Wushang who was kneeling on the ground: "What are you still kneeling here for, waiting to be beheaded?"

At this time, Cao Wushang also became clever, kowtowed quickly and said: "The guilty general will go to Ran Min's army to inquire now, and then go..."

After Cao Wushang left, Liu Bang looked at Lu Guan and said, "This Cao Wushang cannot be reused. If you can use it in the future, don't use it."

Lu Guan quickly bowed and said: "This is my fault, please calm down, Your Majesty!"

Liu Bang looked at Lu Guan meaningfully: "When I was hunted down by the small officials of the Qin State, you were always by my side, and you are also the most important person in my widow."

"My minister will surely shed the last drop of blood for my great Han Dynasty!" Lu Guan said seriously, looking at this partner who had played with him since he was a child, the current king.

"Don't say these things, the widows said back then, I will definitely do something, and I will not disappoint your expectations!"

There was a very strange expression on Liu Bang's face, which was somewhat holy.

It didn't take long for Cao Wushang to come back. He told Liu Bang that he had seen that general with his own eyes, and his ass had already been beaten to pieces by Ran Min. The fuzzy flesh and blood is not fake.

"This—" Zhang Liang was also a little confused. Doesn't this mean that this matter has nothing to do with Ran Min? In other words, Sun Wu will definitely hide in the army.

If you can't run towards the north, then you can't run towards the south, so you are looking for death?Is it possible that Sun Wu still wants to seek refuge with Emperor Qin?

It's just that the battle report sent by Zhou Yu said that the emperor of Qin has retreated steadily, and now two-thirds of Jiaodong County has been recovered.

What a Mei Zhoulang, he really has the ability to defeat the so-called invincible Emperor Qin.

Everyone is immersed in this kind of joy, but if you want to know the truth, no matter how cultivated you are, you can't help but swear.

Liu Bang's face also became uncertain. Now that it is confirmed that there is no problem with Ran Min, the only thing left to do is to investigate!
Zhang Liang shook his head and said: "Your Majesty, this matter is still too strange. Ran Min is the leader of an army, and he was outside in the middle of the night in single clothes just to wait for a general. This seems a little unreasonable. The minister thought, If you want to know the truth, why not go to Ran Min to check it out..."

"Check it out?" Liu Bang looked displeased: "Isn't it a Sun Wu, who is not the same with him, and now pass it on, Sun Wu secretly joined forces with Qin, and wanted to sell our three-nation coalition army to Qin. At that time, won't everyone call for a fight? No matter how much Ran Min wants to fight, he won't cover up a collaborator!"

Zhang Liang was pleasantly surprised: "This humble official is overthinking, the king has thought very well!"

Liu Bang was very satisfied that he could come up with such a solution, while Zhang Liang followed his own way of thinking about things, not saying that anyone should be [-]% higher.

The news was released very quickly, and almost everyone in the Three Kingdoms Allied Forces knew about it.

In Zhou Yu's army, Ran Min looked at Sun Wu who was sitting opposite him, and then glanced at the general whose buttocks had been beaten to death, and the smile on his face deepened.
