Competing

Chapter 187 Make Up Your Mind
The world is always so unpredictable, and history always has many unexpected coincidences and accidents.Liu Bangjun didn't know that treacherous villains like Cao Wushang had appeared in his army, so he secretly betrayed the news to Xiang Yu in order to ask for credit and reward.

The key is that the content of the informant was still "hearsay", taken out of context, and even a little bit of wireless. After all, although Liu Bang himself planned to be the king of Guanzhong, he never had the idea of ​​making Ziying the prime minister.

God is pitiful, God is not mean to Liu Bang.Cao Wushang, the traitor in his own army, is just a leftist in any case, not an important figure in the core decision-making circle.Just when he and Zhang Liang were worried, God sent Uncle Xiang, Xiang Yu's uncle.

You must know that Xiang Bo is a core figure in the Chu army and has a detached position. The news he brought and the role he played are by no means comparable to Cao Wushang.In an intelligence battle before the Hongmen Banquet, it was obvious that Liu Banglue, the Duke of Pei, had the upper hand.

With such a coincidence and such luck, Liu Bang would wake up laughing even in his sleep.

Bashang Liu Bangjun's camp, Zhang Liang's tent.

Xiang Bo finally couldn't resist Zhang Liang's various blunt and insinuating inquiries, and told the truth: "Yu'er and Fan Zeng have decided to hold a banquet at the Hongmen barracks tomorrow night, and invite all the princes and generals to celebrate the destruction of Qin. The battle. All generals must participate, and Liu Bang is indispensable."

Hearing this, Zhang Liang was somewhat relieved. In fact, what he and Liu Bang were most worried about was that Xiang Yu directly led the army to kill him. The 40 elite troops who have returned from a great victory are definitely not something that my subordinates can resist.

Although Xiang Yu and Fan Zeng are likely to be worried about the bad influence, they would not do so according to common sense.But a person like Xiang Yu is arrogant and self-willed, and since the Battle of Julu, he has not paid attention to the people of the world, maybe he will go his own way.Since Xin'an was killed and surrendered, Xiang Yu couldn't do anything.For Xiang Yu, what they lost was nothing more than reputation and morality, but for Liu Bang, it was worth their lives, so they couldn't afford to lose.

For this reason, Liu Bang and Zhang Liang have always been worried. Before they can be sure, they have been sending a large number of guards to take precautions secretly.At the same time, he tried to get news from Xinfeng Hongmen. At this moment, the confirmed news brought by Xiang Bo finally gave Liu Bang a reassurance.

Of course, Zhang Liang also wondered whether Xiang Bo was acting?Was it sent by Xiang Yu and Fan Zeng just to confuse and deceive themselves?After thinking for a while, Zhang Liang shook his head lightly, denying this idea, because he believed in his own vision and judgment.

Secondly, the people of Chu State did not have this need at all. If Xiang Yu wanted to deal with Liu Bang, it was straightforward that no matter what method he adopted, Liu Bang would be passive.Why bother?So Xiang Bo really did it in private, for his own comfort.Thinking of the friendship in the past, Zhang Liang couldn't help feeling warm in his heart.

Although moved in his heart, on the surface Mr. Zifang is still calm and calm, pretending not to know: "Of course, the Qin State is destroyed, and three years of hard work has finally achieved results, so naturally we should celebrate it. Pei Gong's Snake Rebellion was also considered the first to raise troops against Qin, and his contribution to destroying Qin is not insignificant, so naturally he should see it."

Breaking Wuguan, capturing the capital of Qin State, and accepting the surrender of Prince Qin, these great achievements can be said to be second only to Xiang Yu. Zhang Liang didn't mention these things.

Uncle Xiang shook his head and smiled wryly: "Brother Zifang is talented, everything in the world, everything in the world, what this matter means, of course you know? Why do you have to play charades with me?"

A trace of guilt could not help but appear on Zhang Liang's face. As for whether it was from the heart, only Mr. Zifang knew.

Xiang Bodao: "It can be said that Liu Bang entered Guanzhong first to pick up a bargain. You must know that all Qin's troops gathered in Julu, and they were all wiped out by Yu'er. Otherwise, how could Liu Peigong have this opportunity? The battle to destroy Qin deserves the most credit." Yu'er was the one who was great, but the biggest victory in this battle was won by Pei Gong.

This... Even Yu'er may not care about it, but will the group of wolf-like generals under him be convinced?There are also many princes and kings clamoring from it, Yu'er must do some things in order to save face, not to mention there is Fan Yafu..."

The biggest fruit of victory in the battle to destroy Qin is naturally the throne of the King of Guanzhong for now.It's hard for Xiang Bo to say too clearly, but fortunately, both of them know it well.Uncle Xiang also excused Xiang Yu intentionally or unintentionally. After all, Xiang Yu is his own nephew, and it is better to blame some bad things on others!
Xiang Bo sighed lightly: "Yu'er has already received news that Liu Peigong is going to become king in Guanzhong. You shouldn't, you shouldn't, why did Duke Pei appoint Ziying as his prime minister?"

Zhang Liang's heart was shocked. Although he was not there when he talked about this matter, he heard Zhou Bo mention it later.Only a few core generals and counselors around Liu Bang knew about it, and even if it spread, it was limited to the middle-level generals and close guards.Xiang Yu got the news so quickly, so it seems that there should be a traitor in the army.For Liu Bang, who is under great pressure, this is a bit worse!
Xiang Bo continued: "When the princes and generals at Hongmen learned about this, they were very angry. Although Ziying is the son of Fusu, he is known as a virtuous man in ordinary times, but he is the king of Qin and an enemy chief after all. What do you want to do? How can you be worthy of the soldiers and common people who died in the battle of the Six Kingdoms? Now there is a lot of quarrel at Hongmen, and Liu Bang’s crimes can be imagined. Zifang has been following Liu Bang’s side, which is already very dissatisfied. If you want to question Liu Bang, Zifang, you should also be at the top of the list."

What Xiang Bo said was not obvious, but Zhang Liang knew well that princes and kings were nothing.Naturally, Xiang Yu wanted to kill Liu Bang, and more than that, Liu Bang's advisers and generals probably would not be short of one, and he was the first to bear the brunt!

Uncle Xiang continued: "Brother Zifang once rescued Uncle Xiang in distress in the past, and we have known each other for many years, and we have a deep friendship. As a brother, I can't bear to see you die with Liu Bang. I came here on a starry night. You hurry up and leave!"

Zhang Liang shook his head and said, "I was sent by the King of Han to help Peigong. Now he is in a difficult situation, how can he leave easily? If he sneaks away like this, is it a treacherous person? So it is time to tell Peigong!"

This... Uncle Xiang hesitated a little.

Zhang Liang said: "Pei Gong never thought of being called the king of Guanzhong, and he never and would not establish Ziying as his prime minister. Someone must have instigated false accusations. There are many secrets in it, which need to be explained in detail. If the general blames Pei Gong for this, the truth will come later Dabai, the prestige and reputation of the general will be greatly affected, Brother Xiang can't bear to see such a situation, right?"

The last time, son, Xin'an, Uncle Xiang also used Xiang Yu all over the country, but Xiang Yu didn't give himself a bit of face to his uncle.He is not very angry with this uncle, but more helpless and frustrated.Seeing that his nephew did something wrong but could not be dissuaded, so that a series of subsequent adverse consequences occurred.

Naturally, it can't be like this this time, even if you can't be persuaded, then find a way to stop it!You must not let Yu'er commit the crime of killing Liu Peigong.Xiang Bo made up his mind and nodded slightly.
