Chapter 136 - Foolish Dreams, Big Fights
"Under the two conditions, it's very simple! First: My brothers in Wagangzhai are usually used to being loose here. Even after Zhao'an, I hope that the imperial court can let me wait to guard the border pass.
Second: I'm still going to be my Demon King! Continue to dominate Wagangzhai! As long as the court agreed to my two requests, the brothers in Wagangzhai immediately voted to the court. Before and after the saddle of the court for the court, I will not give up! I only heard Cheng Yanjin say solemnly.
When Liu Xiu heard this, he smiled "poof", and then said: "Cheng Yanjin, do you think I don't know what you want to do?" You're trying to sell dog meat with a sheep's head......"
"Hey! Marshal, that's not what you said, when did this court become a sheep's head? If you let someone know, where will the emperor inspire you, I'm afraid it will ......" said, Cheng Biting Jin also made a gesture of wiping his neck.
Everyone was immediately amused by Cheng Biting Jin and laughed.
And Liu Xiu also shouted: "Okay, you are a splash, you are really the demon king of the world, and you dare to threaten Ben Shuai." ”
When everyone heard this, they burst into laughter again.
"Marshal, just say it, can you agree."
Cheng Biting Jin, these two conditions for you are really tricky! Whether he can agree or not, Ben Shuai has no right to decide. Wait for the marshal to report to the court and wait for the court to decide. After the results are down, Ben Shuai will inform you again!
However, during this time, the people of Wagangzhai must be in peace in the cottage, and if something happens, don't blame Ben Shuai for being ruthless. I saw Liu Xiu Enwei and said.
Cheng Yanjin is a smart person, so he naturally knows what Liu Xiu means, so he agreed to it. Guan Yu saw that this Liu Xiu not only did not kill Cheng and Jin, but also surrendered Wagangzhai, and he couldn't help but secretly admire Liu Xiu, the marshal of sweeping the north.
In this way, the banquet lasted until midnight, and then dispersed. And Cheng Yanjin was naturally drunk and unconscious.
But Wang Bodang excused himself for not being able to drink. Liu Xiu and everyone naturally knew what they were worried about. Nor did they force their drinking. So naturally it is extremely sober.
In the end, under Liu Xiu's arrangement, Wang Bodang and Cheng Yanjin lived in Guannei.
…………
Just as the war in the north was going well, Temujin was expelled back to his homeland. In the south, Yizhou is full of war.
Previously, Zhao Tuo and Wei Yan fought for five days and five nights under the city of Chengdu. Relying on Chengdu's tall city walls and easy-to-defend terrain, the Han army successfully resisted the wolf-like attack of the Qin army with 50,000 men.
In the end, when the grain line was too long, Zhao Tuo was afraid that something would happen, so he ordered the troops to withdraw to Jianwei to rest. In this battle, the Qin army suffered nearly 50,000 casualties, while the Han army was also uncomfortable, with nearly 30,000 casualties.
Even the tall and majestic city walls of Chengdu were crumbling under this war. And Wei Yan was also in this battle, and was shot in the left shoulder by the Qin army's strong crossbow.
However, in the first battle of Chengdu, Wei Yan and Chen Gong, two rising stars, ushered in a round of applause in the court. After all, with only 50,000 people, he could resist more than 200,000 Qin troops, and this courage is not something that everyone has.
After this good news reached Chang'an City, Liu Bang and the ministers finally let go of the hearts that had been hanging. After all, this Qin army was like a bamboo all the way, but he didn't expect to arrive in Chengdu and suffer such a big loss from Wei Yan.
Although it can only be regarded as a big draw, for the current Han army, this is no different from winning!
After Liu Bang's great joy, he naturally did not forget to step up the allocation of grain and grass to the Han army in Chengdu. And this burden naturally fell on Xiao He again.
However, on the afternoon when the good news from Chengdu came back, Liu Xiu's good news of sweeping the north finally arrived at the palace! Of course, incidentally, there is also a letter of surrender from Wagangzhai.
After Liu Bang found out, he was even more overjoyed. Even when eating, he couldn't close his mouth happily, and personally called Lu Pheasant over and read the good news to Lu Pheasant.
After hearing this, Lu Pheasant was naturally very happy, but then his face was sad. Liu Bang looked at Lu Pheasant, and naturally knew in his heart what he was not happy about, but he didn't pay attention to it.
After eating, Liu Bang left Lu Pheasant alone and went to find Mrs. Qi. This Mrs. Qi is naturally the one who was taken as a concubine by Lu Pheasant after Liu Bang's death the day after tomorrow. It's just that now Lu Bu is very fond of her, and although Lu Pheasant, who is the queen, is dissatisfied, she doesn't dare to do it openly.
…………
In the morning of the next day, Liu Bang informed the officials of the two good news, and all the officials were happy.
Subsequently, Liu Bang handed over the surrender of Wagangzhai to the hundred officials for discussion. To be honest, when Liu Bang saw the two conditions proposed by Wagangzhai, his face darkened half.
This first article, Cheng Yanjin wants to retain military power, and Liu Bang is quite acceptable. After all, in Liu Bang's view, no matter how powerful Wagangzhai is, it is just a group of bandits and bandits who have not yet become a climate. Even if the military power is given to him, how much waves can he make!
But this second article, Liu Bang is a little unacceptable. This matter of being crowned king with a different surname, Liu Bang is taboo.
In fact, in Liu Bang's opinion, the biggest reason why Xiang Yu was defeated by himself was to wantonly fief the king, but he couldn't satisfy the greed of his subordinates, so he gave himself an opportunity to unite the princes and suppress Xiang Yu.
"Your Majesty! The minister has this to play! At this time, Chen Ping, the prime minister of the left, stood up and said.
"Say it!"
"Your Majesty, just now I discussed with all the adults, and I agreed that although Cheng Yanjin is willing to surrender, the two conditions he put forward actually have his own calculations."
"Yes! Your Majesty, this retains the right to the army, and it's just a matter of not leaving the border pass! He is a thief, and he still wants to be a rightful king! It's a fool's dream! Fan Xu said extremely dissatisfied.
"Hey! Lao Fan! What happened to the bandits? Isn't Lao Tzu also a bandit? How? Do you look down on bandits? When Liang Wang Peng Yue heard Fan Hao say this, he was displeased.
After all, this Peng Yue was also born as a bandit back then. Fishing in the wild lakes and rivers, and ganging up with a gang of people to be robbers. Later, he joined the anti-Qin camp and subsequently submitted to Liu Bang. But even so, Peng Yue also felt that it was still very disgraceful to be a thief back then, and there were many taboos in his heart.
Now Fan Xu's words naturally hit Peng Yue's sore spot. Don't look at how the two usually get along, if they really make trouble, they can really turn their faces and deny people!
When Fan Hao heard this, he immediately laughed and said, "What? My words poked at King Liang, your sore spot? What, am I not right? A bandit, still thinking about ripping the earth and sealing the king? ”
"Fan, I'm you*. If you have any opinion of me, you can say it. Let's go outside and compare, you don't have to beat around the bush. Peng Yuedang even burst into foul language.
When Fan Hao heard that Peng Yue was so hurtful, he jumped to Peng Yue and said, "You have the ability to say it again, I promise to screw your head off!" Lao Tzu speaks, he never beats around the bush, since you are a thief today and want to compare, then come! Who instigates whose grandson! ”
The civil and military officials present were also suddenly a little confused by the sudden anger of the two.
"Isn't this talking about the surrender of Wagangzhai again? Why did they fight? ”
"It's just, I know how to fight and kill all day long, it's really boring!"
"Alas! I advise you to say a few words, and don't blame me for not reminding you when you are beaten. This King Liang is born as a bandit. Now that the general has talked about his sore spot, King Liang is naturally unconvinced!"
