Overlord of the late Qin Dynasty

Chapter 320 Entering Xianyang (10)

"My lord, do you want the world, or a corner of peace?" After Fan Zeng and Zhang Liang made eye contact, Zhang Liang asked first.

As soon as Zhang Liang's words came out, the rest of the civil and military personnel of Chu State in the tent secretly gasped in their hearts, extremely surprised.

"Uncle Gu and Uncle dormant under the command of the First Emperor, revive Chu and the Xiang family is the goal of Uncle Gu and Uncle. But since the rebellion against Qin, wars have ensued from all over the world. Feel guilty! If you can seize the world and annex other countries to save them from the suffering of war, why would you not want to be alone?" Sitting at the top, Xiang Yu did not expect that Zhang Liang would be outspoken, nor did he hide his inner embarrassment said euphemistically.

Although Zhang Liang knew Xiang Yu's true thoughts after joining Xiang Yu, when Xiang Yu said it in front of all the civil and military personnel, he was shocked and delighted in his heart.

Putting aside the shock and joy in his heart, Zhang Liang looked at Fan Zeng and continued to speak: "My lord, if you have this heart, I suggest that you might as well take the Guanzhong, Sichuan and Sichuan areas, and then occupy Nanyang County, Nanjun, Sanchuan County, The four counties of Hedong County! Use this as the foundation, imitate the Qin of the past, and take it to scare the world!"

"As for other counties and counties, the lord can pretend to hand them over to the state of Chu for governance, but in reality, the descendants of Xiang's family or those who love the lord will be the county magistrates. In this way, although the lord's country is only in the Guanzhong, Sichuan and Shu areas in name. The four counties, but the counties and counties that the lord has subordinated since he raised the army are still under his command!"

Although Xiang Yu also felt that what Zhang Liang said was suitable for the current situation, he was still a little unwilling.I have worked hard for several years to win the current territory. Why should the counties and counties under the rule have to be handed over to others because of the scruples of the other princes in the Kanto region.

Xiang Yu still wanted to assign all the counties and counties currently under his rule to himself, but he couldn't come up with a way to deal with the countries in the Kanto region.

Suddenly, Xiang Yu thought of the history he had learned.

Historically, Xiang Yu enfeoffed the princes after the Qin Dynasty was destroyed.A total of eighteen princes and kings were entrusted, and the entire Central Plains were dismembered.

Xiang Yu thought about it for a second, why didn't he follow the example of Xiang Yu in history to enfeoff the princes and turn the contradictions of the Kanto countries to the country so that he can continue to own the counties under his current rule.

Xiang Yu, who decided secretly, hurriedly ordered Han Dao, who was next in line: "Zixin, take out the map of the territory of the world and spread it on the ground!"

"Here!" Han Xin got up immediately to take orders, and then took several soldiers to get the territory map.

In the tent, all the civil and military officials of the state of Chu were waiting for Xiang Yu's decision. When they heard that Xiang Yu asked Han Xin to fetch the map, they were puzzled.

Xiang Yu's actions made Fan Zeng and Zhang Liang seem to have thought of something, but they were not sure and had to wait for Han Xin to come back with the rest of the tent.

Han Xin brought a pair of maps together with several sergeants, and spread the maps on the ground according to Xiang Yu's instructions.

After laying down, Han Xin surrendered and returned to his seat.

Like Zhang Liang and Fan Zeng, Han Xin was also thoughtful.

Seeing that the map of the territory of the world had been spread on the floor, Xiang Yu got up from his seat, drew out his sword, pointed at the map of the territory on the ground, and said to everyone in the tent: "I just heard Zifang's words and thought it was very reasonable, but in my heart It is unwilling to give these counties and counties that were conquered by Gu and all the soldiers to others in name. After thinking hard, Gu thought of a way and asked General Han to go and get this map of the territory of the world!"

I saw Xiang Yu pointing to the modern Shandong, Henan, Hebei, and Shanxi borders in the north and south of the Yellow River, and then slowly said: "The place pointed by the lonely sword is the most affluent place in the world, and it is also the place that has produced the most overlords and great powers since the Spring and Autumn Period. A place where Gu and everyone are afraid of Zhao, Wei, Qi, and Yan are on this piece of land, if they unite with Gu Mu's strength, they really can't fight against it!"

"However, if this land is divided into more than a dozen countries, each of them will go their own way and then fight over land disputes between counties and counties. Before that, Gu Ke will only control the land mentioned by Zifang, and will be stationed in the rest of the counties for the time being. The soldiers and horses of the county will change their flags. When the Central Plains is in chaos, Gu will take back these counties with the king's order!"

After Xiang Yu finished speaking, he looked at Fan Zeng and Zhang Liang, trying to see from their faces whether his idea was feasible.However, Fan Zeng and Zhang Liang, as the two masterminds at the end of Qin Dynasty and the beginning of Han Dynasty, couldn't help but wonder how Xiang Yu could see what they really thought.

"My lord's strategy is feasible! But we need to think carefully about the reasons for dividing the land of the Central Plains, so that the Central Plains can reappear like a Spring and Autumn Period!" Just when everyone was shocked by Xiang Yu's words, Fan Zeng straightened his body and said to Xiang Yu . "And we have to make a good plan on how to keep the land of the Central Plains still raging with flames of war, so that those princes who don't want the lord to become bigger will have no chance to unite to prevent the lord from taking back the counties under his rule!"

Hearing Fan Zeng's words, Zhang Liang couldn't help but thump in his heart.He felt that South Korea might not be able to keep it. After all, Zhang Liang joined Xiang Yu in order to allow South Korea to continue the country.But according to the current situation, Xiang Yu is indeed ambitious and wants to follow the example of Qin State and annex other countries to establish a dynasty.

Originally, Zhang Liang thought that Fan Zeng would oppose Xiang Yu's strategy, and he could plead with South Korea to allow South Korea to survive while Xiang Yu was recuperating, even if there was only one county and one city left.

But he never expected that Fan Zeng would agree with Xiang Yu's strategy of dividing the Central Plains.South Korea is cowardly, and Zhang Liang knew that if Xiang Yu implemented the strategy of dividing the Central Plains, he feared that South Korea would be destroyed by the other separated countries.After all, the foundation of South Korea's founding is only a dozen counties, and although it has strong recruits, it has no background to compete with other countries.

"What Yafu said is very true!" Xiang Yu nodded in agreement with Fan Zeng's words, and then said: "It's better to wait for Xianyang to take it, and then discuss it after Qin surrenders! But in the meantime, I hope that Yafu, Zifang and Dear friends, you can come up with a charter first!"

"Here!" Hearing Xiang Yu's words, Fan Zeng, Zhang Liang and other civil officials stood up and cupped their hands.

"Okay! Long Qi and Zhang Han order the soldiers and horses, and go to Tongguan with Gu! Let's see if the pass that hinders our coalition forces is strong or not!" Xiang Yu waved his hand to signal to the civil servants and advisers who had surrendered their hands to get up, and then turned to the generals. Long Qie and Zhang Han ordered.

"Here!" Everyone stood up and cupped their hands.

Tongguan.

Yinglin and Xijia came together, Xijia cupped his hands and said to Yinglin: "General! We can't stop the Kwantung rebels, so we might as well withdraw from Tongguan to preserve our strength. It won't be too late to fight back when the imperial soldiers arrive. !"

"No! As a general of the Great Qin Dynasty, this general has no way of escaping. If Tongguan falls today, this general will also die for the country with his own body!" Yinglin killed a Qi soldier who was rushing towards him, and pointed at the soldiers behind him resolutely. Xi Chu said.

When Xi Chu heard Ying Lin's words, his desire to escape began to waver.

After killing several enemy soldiers, Xi Zhu shouted loudly: "The last general is willing to follow the general. If he can't repel the enemy army, he will die in battle and die for the country!"
