Competing

Chapter 218
Yin Xu concluded that Liu Bang would be crowned King of Han, that is the "unserved prophet" of the traverser, and Zhang Liang could guess that it was his superb resourcefulness.Zhang Zifang lived up to his reputation, and was truly the number one counselor in Chu and Han Dynasties.

The reason for Yin Xu’s analysis is the same, Mr. Zifang also thinks that Xiang Yu will keep Liu Bang by his side to watch. Based on the information that Xiang Yu wants to dominate Guanzhong, he speculates a little and comes to the conclusion that Liu Bang’s fief may be in the Han, middle.The difference between Han, Zhong and Guanzhong is only one word, and they also belong to the old place of Qin, which can be regarded as a disguised compliance with King Huai's agreement.

After all, it's just speculation, Mr. Zifang is still a little uncertain, until today after hearing the ballad spread all over Xian and Yang, he became more certain.What is the purpose of the rumors about Jinyi Yexing?Obviously it was to make Xiang Yu leave Guanzhong. Who is it beneficial to?The answer is clear, Liu Bang and Yin Xu.

Since it was not done by Liu Peigong, Yin Xu could only be the main envoy. With General Yin's intelligence and methods, it is not surprising that he did this.It can be seen from this that Yin Xu has the same idea as himself. After all, Yin Xu is more familiar with the generals of Xiang Yu's line, and it is unknown if he has more news.

Moreover, Yin Xu's intelligence and foresight are extraordinary, and he may not be worse than himself in terms of predicting things like a god.Mr. Zifang still remembers the scene of Pengcheng meeting for the first time. Yin Xusu recognized himself before meeting him, and claimed to have been taught by Huang Shigong.

Zhang Liang has always been a little puzzled about this, but Huangshi Gong Shenlong has no chance at all.In a word, Zhang Liang vaguely felt that there was something magical about Yin Xu, so he quite agreed with Yin Xu's ideas, so they coincided with each other.

After explaining, Fan Kuai said: "So, Duke Pei's title will be King of Han?"

Zhang Liang nodded and said: "It's very possible, but we won't be sure until Xiang Yu announces it. Before that moment, there may be variables!"

King of Han?When Liu Bang heard that his fief would be Han and Zhong, his expression was gloomy, and his disappointment could not be concealed!
Before he could speak, Fan Kui shouted out Liu Bang's heartfelt voice: "Why? The king Huai said first, and the king who entered Xian and Yang first broke through the pass, and the king of Guanzhong became the king of Han and Zhong in this way. Han, Zhong That's the Xirong tribe, living in the barren mountains, how can they compare with the fertile Guanzhong Xiang Yu clearly wants to occupy Guanzhong by himself, we don't accept it, we have to find Xiang Yu to reason with him!"

When he turned his head and saw that everyone was silent, Fan Kui also fainted involuntarily.Zhang Liang remonstrated: "Pei Gong, let's do this before the fiefdom. Although Han and Zhong are difficult places, they still have a place to live and save their lives and strength. When everything is settled, let's make a long-term plan!"

Although Liu Bang felt distressed, it was worth nodding his head helplessly. What Zhang Liang said was right.What did King Huai promise?Xiong Xin is just a puppet, Xiang Yu is huge and powerful, what can he say?The Hongmen Banquet is thrilling, and it is not easy to save one's life. The king of Han and Zhong will be the king of Han and Zhong. If you don't want to, you have to accept it!

Liu Bang let out a long sigh, and sat back sadly, waiting for the final result of Xiang Yu's enfeoffment.Seeing this, Zhang Liang couldn't help but sigh secretly, besides Xiang Yu's movements, he had to see General Yin anytime!
Now it has been guessed that Liu Bang can be the king of Han and Zhong, but there is no news of Yin Xu, how will Xiang Yu arrange him?

Wealth and honor do not return home, like walking in brocade clothes at night!Naturally, Xiang Yu also heard the ballads that spread throughout Xian and Yangcheng.While muttering these two sentences in secret, Xiang Yu couldn't help thinking, isn't this just the situation he is in now?
Now I am the biggest hero in the war to destroy Qin, and I am about to enfeoff the princes and dominate the world. This honor is incomparable.No one can match this kind of wealth. If you stay in Guanzhong, you will not be able to share this joy.

My hometown is a prime minister in the Western Chu Kingdom, and I have lived in Kuaiji, Jiangdong since I was a child. Now that I am famous, I should let the people in my hometown know.Just like the words in the ballad, if you are rich and you don’t know your hometown, it’s like walking at night in brocade clothes. Who knows?
The more Xiang Yu thought about it, the more he felt uncomfortable. He wanted to know Pengcheng, but Fan Yafu insisted that Guanzhong was suitable for hegemony.He had only reluctantly agreed before, but now his heart was more and more shaken.At the same time, he kept looking for reasons for himself. To be an overlord depends on strength, not place.Why is Pengcheng worse than Guanzhong?Back then, Duke Huan of Qi still dominated Qi, and Pengcheng was located in the transition zone between Qi and Chu. How could it be impossible?

The capital of Pengcheng is well known to the people of Chu, and this kind of honor is incomparable.Thinking of this, Xiang Yu couldn't bear it anymore, and said loudly: "I will go to Pengcheng, I want to go back to Pengcheng!"

Fan Zeng couldn't stop shaking his head when he heard it, and said, "Yu'er, think about why Xian and Yang suddenly appeared this song 'Wealth and wealth do not return home, just like walking at night in brocade clothes'? Obviously, this was deliberately done by someone, just because they didn't want you to stay In Guanzhong, don’t fall for it!”

Xiang Yu shook his head and said, "I think these words are correct. It's time to go back to Pengcheng, and go back to Chu!"

In fact, Fan Yafu was already suspecting that this matter was done by Liu Bang, but how can there be any evidence for this kind of thing?It is common to spread some rumors through the mouth of children.Although the means are poor, they can often achieve miraculous results.For example, now, Xiang Yu is so convinced that he doesn't listen to his own advice at all.

Fan Zeng persuaded: "Yu'er can't be impulsive. The establishment of the capital is a matter of eternal hegemony. Pengcheng is no better than Guanzhong. It cannot be changed easily. Guanzhong is definitely the best choice."

Once the decision was made, Xiang Yu had many reasons and said: "Yafu, Guanzhong is the old place of the Qin State. I led the destruction of the Qin State, and killed 20 Qin soldiers in Youkeng. The people of the Qin State are very grateful to me." How can resentment live here for a long time? The will of the people is the foundation of the country. For me, Qin is not the best choice!

What's more, the soldiers under our command are all from the state of Chu, and they all want to make meritorious deeds to destroy Qin and return to their hometown in a glorious manner.Now he has to leave his hometown and stay in Guanzhong, I am afraid that the soldiers are not very willing.Strong homesickness will lead to instability in the army, and if things go on like this, there will be troubles! "

The two points Xiang Yu said were true, and Fan Yafu was at a loss for words for a while, and it was hard to refute, so he could only sigh helplessly.

When Xiang Yu saw it, he said, "Father Ya, don't worry. The terrain around Pengcheng is flat and fertile. It doesn't need to be far behind in Guanzhong. And I'm in charge of enfeoffment. I have the final say on the fiefdom!"

Fan Zeng saw that Xiang Yu had already made a decision, and now the nine cows could not be brought back, so he had to acquiesce, and nodded, "Okay then, I will return to Pengcheng when I return to Pengcheng, but this distribution plan has to be repeated again!"

Seeing Fan Zeng agreeing, Xiang Yu was filled with excitement, and said, "Let's discuss it again. With Yafu here, Yu'er will have nothing to worry about!"

The next day Xiang Yu announced the matter in the court hall, saying that he would return to Chu State!

Counselor Han Sheng said: "The four fortresses in Guanzhong are fertile and rich. It is the best choice for the king to dominate. Please think twice!"

Xiang Yu had already made up his mind, so he didn't care about Han Sheng's words, he shook his head and said, "Don't repeat, I have made up my mind, I will choose a day to return to Chu!"

Han Sheng was quite critical of this, and after leaving the court, he scolded: "It is said that Chu people are crowned with monkeys, and it is true!"

At this time, somehow, these words reached Xiang Yu's ears, how could the furious Xiang Yu allow them to insult Wu, and he was about to cook Han Sheng to death, and the news quickly spread throughout Xian and Chengyang.

After Yin Xu, Chen Ping, and Zhang Liang heard about it, they all showed knowing smiles!
