Emperor Qin Ba Shi

Chapter 63 Where the interest lies, the action is where it comes!
The allied forces of the princes besieged Hangu Pass and fought for a long time.Wang Ben, Marquis of the Great Qin Dynasty, was born in Hengkong, news of Qin Chu's nine battles, four victories and five losses, spread like wildfire.

Suddenly the world was in an uproar, and the six countries in the Kanto region were dumbfounded.

The situation in the world has changed in just half a year, making people dazzled.The Great Qin Empire, which originally had only a dead end, is about to revive.

As long as Qin II does not die, it will be a matter of time before the Great Qin Empire is reborn from the ashes.

……

Pengcheng.

The righteousness of the Kwantung rebels lies in the palace of Chu King Xiongxin.When Qin and Chu fought for a long time, with more victories and fewer losses, news came that they still stopped at Hangu Pass.

Xiong Xin breathed a sigh of relief just now, but immediately became nervous again.This time, Liu Ji stopped at Gaoguan and was defeated by Qin II.During the nine battles between Qin and Chu, Xiang Yu stopped at Hangu Pass.

It is a bad thing for the Anti-Qin Alliance, but it is indeed a good thing for Chu Huai Wang Xiongxin.

Whether it is Liu Ji or Xiang Yu, Xiong Xin is not at ease.From a shepherd boy to King Huai of Chu, he has already grown up, and his vision is not what it used to be.

……

Everyone in the world knows that Xiong Xin and Xiang Shi had friction, first there was a little awkwardness, and then a big conflict broke out.

Xiong Xin seized Xiang Yu's military power, intending to expel Xiang Yu from the core of Chu State.Xiang Yu rose violently and beheaded Song Yi, the champion of Qingzi, and became a veritable commander of the Chu army in one fell swoop.

Both men insist on deposing the other.

……

Chu Huai Wang Xiong Xin, although he was a shepherd boy, was not ignorant at the time.The cruelty of the political struggle and the confrontation between many parties made him grow rapidly.

It is no longer a puppet who has just succeeded to the throne and has black eyes.The ambition of power is growing wildly in his heart, and the bear heart at this moment is like the recovery of the abyss demon.

The pursuit of power has become his only pursuit!
……

Speaking of which, this time Xiang Yu beheaded Song Yi, the champion of Qingzi, it happened suddenly, and everything was not planned in advance, which caught him by surprise.

"Dear dears, the general lost four out of nine battles and lost tens of thousands of troops, but still stopped at Hangu Pass. Do you have any opinions on this?"

Xiang Yu led his army to the north, broke through in one fell swoop, and became famous outside, shaking the world.

King Huai of Chu, Xiong Xin, was not idle either. After several purges by the Pengcheng court, the supporters of the Xiang clan had already withered.

Those in high positions are all the confidantes of King Huai of Chu Xiongxin!

It is really shocking for a shepherd boy to grow up to this point.It's just that Xiong Xin forgot a word, when ambition does not match strength, ambition must be suppressed.

Now the main force of the Chu army is in the hands of Xiang Yu. In the battle of Julu, the whole world is trembling, as if facing an abyss.The general trend is in hand, and the righteousness cannot be the enemy.

Heng Wen smiled, and said: "My lord, Xiang Yu's generation of tigers and wolves brazenly killed Qingzi and the champion to control the entire army. The heart of rebellion is clearly revealed."

"I thought that I should write the twelve kings' letters in succession, and urged Xiang Yu to attack Hangu Pass."

As soon as these words came out, the whole hall was silent.King Huai of Chu Xiong Xin pondered for a moment: "Heng Aiqing, if you break through Hangu Pass, Xiang Yu will be even more powerful, and I'm afraid he will be even more unstoppable!"

After Xiong Xin said these words, the hall was silent for a while, and Heng Wen bowed solemnly: "Your Majesty, the Hangu Pass is the most dangerous in the world. During the Warring States Period, there was never a country that could break through it head-on."

"There are famous generals like Wang Ben, Marquis of Tongwu. Although Xiang Yu is brave, he is only on the top of the battle line. Such a natural danger, even if he wants to, he is powerless!"

"As long as Xiang Yu can't take Hangu Pass, he can disintegrate his power, seize his army, and weaken his reputation. Once Xiang Yu breaks through Hangu Pass and destroys the tyrant Qin, he will seal Xiang Yu in the pass."

"Xiang Yu's killing of 20 prisoners in Xin'an has already aroused the anger of the old Qin people in Guanzhong and cut off the foundation. This is a plan to draw salary from the bottom of the pot."

Xiong Xin had a clear mind, and with a flash of thought, he understood the advantages and disadvantages of this strategy of constant temperature.

"According to the above doctor's words, I sent the king's letter to Xiang Yu and Liu Ji, with twelve words in a row!"

"promise."

……

Wuguan.

In the deepest part of the entire mansion, that is, on the northernmost side, there is an independent courtyard.Backed by the north slope of Wuguan, facing a large pool, it is very quiet.

This is the residence of Liu Ji, the Duke of Pei, and the residence of the general guarding Wuguan.At this moment, except for the lantern at the entrance, all the lights in the mansion have been extinguished.

But there is a little light here, sprinkled in the pool through the white screen window, which is very bright on this moonless night.In this faint light, three figures came in a hurry.

……

A tall solitary lamp illuminates the spacious and simple study room: a circle of natural-color wooden shelves is filled with bamboo slip albums, a sword stand stands in front of the bookshelf, and a long sword is placed horizontally.

Liu Ji sat solemnly in front of the long table, staring at Chi Xiao on the sword stand, and sighed a long time from time to time.

"Pei Gong, why are you bothered?" A male voice with a Chu State accent swayed in the quiet big room.

"Is it Xiao He?" Liu Ji still sat solemnly, his expression didn't change at all, his accent was so familiar, he didn't need to guess who it was.

"Peigong Mingrui, I have something to report!" The steady voice floated like a ghost's voice.

"It must be a very important event to come here late at night. You don't need to be polite, come in quickly." Liu Ji's eyes left Chi Xiao for the first time and looked at the gate.

"promise."

……

"Pei Gong, there is news from the scout battalion that Qin and Chu fought nine times, with four victories and five defeats, and Xiang Yu's troops are trapped in Hangu Pass..."

"Snapped!"

Liu Ji took the case, his face was a little ferocious under the lonely lamp, and he roared: "Xiang Yu is such a waste, Hangu Pass has not been broken, and Gaoguan is strong. The imperial edict of King Huai of Chu may be a piece of waste paper!"

"Pei Gong, the allied forces of the princes have suffered heavy losses, and the matter of destroying Qin is likely to undergo a major change." Xiao He let out a long breath: "What does Pei Gong want to do?"

Liu Ji stood up, and the sword stand shook slightly.Under the light, he was so skinny and old, as if all the flesh and blood had dried up in that bony skeleton.

"Mr. Zifang, what's your opinion on the current situation?"

Liu Ji is an extremely sensible person, he knows his own strengths and weaknesses.For the analysis of the general trend of the world, it is far inferior to Zhang Liang and Xiao He who are sitting here.

Zhang Liang was stunned for a moment, then immediately bowed and said in a loud voice: "Under Hangu Pass, Qin and Chu fought nine times, and each other was exhausted. I thought that a big battle would not break out in a short time."

"Now that Xianyang is changing, Qin II once awakened, punished Zhao Gao, pacified the Xianyang court, and pacified the anger of the great Qin Empire's meritorious deeds. Sent down the imperial edict to release the hearts of the old Qin people."

"In the battle of Wuguan, Yaoguan defeated our army in one fell swoop and won the hearts of the Qin army. In addition, the Jiuyuan army went south brazenly, and Wang Ben, Marquis of Tongwu, was born in the sky."

"Zhang Han fell, but Wang Ben, who was stronger than Zhang Han, appeared. Now that the princes have joined forces to destroy Qin, there is no time and strength."

Speaking of this, Zhang Liang bowed deeply: "The Qin army in Jiuyuan went south regardless of everything, which means that the Qin army still recognizes Qin II. It is hard to guarantee that the Qin army in Nanyue will not be ready to move."

"Once South Vietnam's 50 Qin troops appear in the Central Plains, not to mention destroying Qin, I am afraid that even the six countries in the Kanto region will have problems protecting themselves."
