Chapter 108: Infighting among the feudal lords

Fan Zeng did not accept Han Xin's advice.

At the Hongmen Banquet, Xiang Zhuang helped to dance with his sword, but Xiang Boru appeared as expected. Next, Fan Zeng's trick was discovered by Zhang Liang. Guan Ying, a brave general in Liu Bang's army, came into the tent with a sword shield. After competing with Xiang Zhuang, Xiang Yu, who was so happy, couldn't help but feel envious. Why didn't there be such a fierce general in the Chu army?

Xiang Yu didn't think about it. With an invincible general like him, which opponent would compete with the Chu army for courage? Without an opponent, even if the Chu army generals were brave, they would not be able to find an opponent to fight.

After changing a supporting role, the Hongmen Banquet continued to be staged. Although Li Yuan's influence caused some deviations in this drama, overall, Liu Bang is an excellent starring role, while Zhang Liang is the best director. As for Fan Zeng and Xiang Zhuang, they still play the unpopular and unlucky villain.

Han Xin is a complete supporting role in this big drama. He finally rushed to the mirror, but was deleted by the jealous villain.

The course of history is changing at the end of a tiny point. This Hongmen Banquet, influenced by Li Yuan, happened a month later than Yuan. Guan Ying replaced Fan Kuai, and it seemed that nothing had changed, but in fact it was not.

What really changes is not the event itself, but the human heart.

Because Han Xin, an important figure who is enough to influence the changes in the war situation this year, had the idea of ​​seeing Li Yuan, the backbone of the remnant Qin, and the young and brave generals in the Qin army.

After the Hongmen Banquet.

Xiang Yu's self-confidence was even more inflated. He was no longer satisfied with the actual position of the General of Chu. He wanted to be a real overlord, rather than a verbal title of the princes.

In mid-May, Xiang Yu sent a messenger to Pengcheng to ask whether King Huai's "those who entered Guanzhong first became king" was still valid. At the same time, a silk book that Liu Bang personally recognized Xiang Yu as the commander of the coalition army was attached. This was the last test of Xiang Yu's strength by Xiang Yu.

In the same month, the sun was scorching, and Liu Bang began to retreat from Xianyang according to the agreement of Hongmen. At the same time, Xiang Yu's Chu army quickly advanced westward and entered the former capital of Qin from the direction of Baqiao: Xianyang.

For the people of Xianyang, this is just another unfortunate arrival, and it is more destructive than the one a month ago.

When Liu Bang's army entered the city, some people began to regret it. If they had known that the rebellious soldiers were so fierce, they followed Li Yuan to Yongzhou. Now, when Xiang Yu's army entered the city, their regrets became even stronger.

What regrets more than the people of Xianyang is the short-lived emperor Ying Ziying.

The unlucky last emperor of Qin State was imprisoned after only having a dream of being an emperor for less than forty days. In the hands of Liu Bang, Ziying and others who contributed all their wealth had at least survived. But now, Xiang Yu, who had taken over the emperor, would not let Ziying and others go without him.

If the tomb of Emperor First Emperor was not too large and profound, Xiang Yu would not mind digging Ying Zheng out of the tomb to whip the body to quell his hatred.

June 1st.

Ying Ziying was in the western city of Xianyang. When former Prime Minister Zhao Gao was killed, the Chu army was killed. He went to Huangquan Road with him, including Feng Jing and Ma Cao, who were prominent in the court of the third generation. Like Ziying, they became victims of the power struggle. The troubled times were originally a test of people's judgment.

Once you follow the wrong person, you will be in a state of doom.

Late June.

King Huai Xiong Xin's delay in reply made Xiang Yu, who was slaughtering in Xianyang even more furious. Yu Ni, the Chu royal clan who did not know the changes in the situation, showed a "fairness". Xiong Xin and his subordinates actually thought that Xiang Yu was too fierce and difficult to control. Compared with this, Liu Bang was gentle and belonged to the type of lenient elders, and was more obedient. Therefore, the previous agreement to enter Guanzhong as the king cannot be changed. If he was named king, Liu Bang should be named King of Qin for the first time.

The shepherd's son Xiong Xin is not aware of his life or death. His subordinates are all fucked and have no eyesight. They cannot see the changes in the world's general trend. Those who are waiting for Xiong Xin's ruler and his ministers have no other way except for life or death.

In early July, Xiang Yu convened his confidant generals at all levels of the Chu army in Xianyang to accuse Xiong Xin of his unjust actions. Naturally, Liu Bang and other princes did not attend such a meeting. As a stakeholder, Liu Bang had already consciously retreated Liu's army to the front line of Hanzhong after the Hongmen Banquet. In the Guanzhong area, he only occupied the exit of the Lantian Plank Road. He could attack and retreat and defend. This was the most comprehensive strategy that Liu Bang thought of under the current situation.

Afang Palace.

The solemn Chu soldiers guarded here extremely strictly. One Chu general after another was summoned, and Long Qi, Ying Bu, Ji Bu, Zhonglimei, Yu Ziqi and others arrived one after another.

"King Huai was established by my Xiang family. I have no merits and honors. How could I arbitrarily preside over the world's convention? At the beginning of the chaos in the world, I temporarily supported the descendants of the six kingdoms to be kings to punish the violent Qin. However, we were personally held on the battlefield by the fierce and slept in the open for three years, and finally destroyed the Qin Dynasty and determined the world. Could it be that it was Xiong Xin, a yellow-mouthed child?" Xiang Yu put his helmet on his armor and asked loudly indignantly at the soldiers.

"Wrong, wrong, wrong!" All the generals of the Chu camp showed resentment. King Huai, a guy who only knew how to enjoy it, naturally could not have a common language with them.

"Who is the one who defeated Qin? It depends on the hard battles of the generals, the passionate blood of all the soldiers, and the heroic souls who died on the battlefield. Without them, I don't know when and when will the Qin Dynasty be destroyed? Without them, the Qin people would have entered Pengcheng and killed everyone cleanly." Xiang Yu looked angry. His words were very tragic, and they were reasonable and resonant with the generals.

"Old King, I, Long Qi, have been following you for a long time. Today, what do you say is what you say? If anyone dares not obey, Long Master will not forgive him." Long Qi shouted violently, and a pair of ring-eyed pairs of followers swept across their faces.

"Where did General Long say? Bu's life is given by the Overlord. Not to mention Xiong Xin's fake King Huai, even if the true King Huai comes, I only the Overlord follows." Ying Bu, who had a look of face, hesitated and said loudly.

"We are all the orders of overlords." Zhonglimei and other generals also responded. As Ying Bu said, Xiong Xin only has an identity and has never shared the joys and sorrows with the generals of the Chu army. How could he be supported by the generals? At this point, even if Xiang Yu didn't say anything, the generals of the Chu camp would be given their own choice.

"I want to respect King Huai as Emperor Yi. I heard from Yafu that the ancient emperors would have to live in the upper reaches of thousands of miles. Pengcheng was not the land of Chu, but also under the river, not the residence of the emperor. It would be better to move the imperial capital to Bin County, Changsha County to clear his heart, cleanse his soul, and correct his movements." Xiang Yu nodded with satisfaction and continued.
