Chapter 48: Xiao He's Intentions

Pei county.

Due to the rebellion of Liu Bang and others, the county guard sent troops to prepare to exterminate the rebels, and the current situation in Pei County is dark.

There was no one in charge, and in the face of the Qin army's approaching the city, the people of Peixian County were panicked.

Knowing that killing the county order is a capital crime, in the form of Qin Jun, this time I am afraid that it is so simple, the best is to hand over the culprit and many others, and the worst is to slaughter the city.

Of course, this is just some ideas, so many people are involved, so many people have died, how can it be easy to let Liu Bang and others go.

Some respected old people in Peixian County had to find a way, knowing that Qin Jun would definitely not give up, and everyone would have to accompany the funeral when the time came.

No, a few old people came to Xiao He, firstly, Xiao He was the biggest official besides the county order, and secondly, Xiao He understood things and had the ability to lead everyone.

"Lord Xiao, now that the soldiers are coming to the city, what do you think we should do?" An old man said.

"yes, we have to make a choice now?"

"In my opinion, Lord Xiao, you are highly respected, and you are the most capable of our Pei County, so you are the most capable person in charge?"

"Yes, taking Lord Xiao as the main thing will definitely be able to appease people's hearts."

Several people admired Xiao He to do it, but Xiao He knew that he didn't have this ability, but he didn't have real power.

Since he wants to be attached to Liu Bang, then he has to let Liu Bang take the position now to see if he has the ability to follow him.

In the past, Liu Bang didn't look good, and even a little scoundrel, but since that time he came into contact with Liu Bang, especially when Lu Gong married his daughter to Liu Bang, Xiao He took a high look at Liu Bang.

If it weren't for this, Xiao He would not have looked up at Liu Bang a few times, Lu Gong is a person who looks at faces, and he values Liu Bang so much, how could Xiao He be indifferent.

"No, no, never." As soon as Xiao He heard that a few people recommended him, he immediately refused, and said to a few people, "Everyone, this head Xiao is absolutely undeserved." ”

"Lord Xiao, don't shirk!" An old man said.

"yes!" One said.

"Yes! Don't put it away! Said an old man.

Xiao He looked at a few people, and said helplessly: "Everyone, it's not that I want to be deliberately humble, you all know that I am an official of the Qin State, and now I am also forced to be helpless, if I can survive, who wants to rebel?" ”

The reason why Xiao He is like this is because of Liu Bang, if he hadn't taken into account his friendship with Liu Bang and told Liu Bang that he couldn't recruit An, he wouldn't have ended up where he is today.

Originally, the county order wanted to lure Liu Bang to Pei County, and then find an opportunity to kill Liu Bang, Xiao He knew the news and hurriedly told Liu Bang, so there would be such a thing.

"Since this is the case, why don't we respond to the Zhang Chu coalition with this, what do you think?" An old man had apparently thought about it and said to everyone.

"I think it does." One humanity.

"Naturally, I don't have anything to say." One said.

When Xiao He heard their words, his heart was already happy, with these people supporting the rebellion, that is, all the people in Pei County rebelled together.

At that time, there will be people to resist the Qin army's siege, and with the help of the people in the city, the Qin army wants to capture Peixian, I am afraid it will be a little difficult.

"No, that's a big sin to destroy the three clans!" Xiao He hurriedly persuaded a few people, explained the powerful relationship, and asked them to make a decision, "We can risk our lives ourselves, but we hurriedly have dozens of people, they are all innocent, what can we do to protect them?"

Xiao He said to the point, and everyone felt that it made a lot of sense when they heard it, they were personally dead, but there were more than ten or twenty people in each family, what should they do?

Because his own behavior killed the whole family, no one can carry this pot, and everyone nodded.

"yes!"

"yes!"

"Now that the county order has been killed, everyone here is responsible, and no one can get rid of it?"

"It's imperative to find someone to take it on as soon as possible."

Some people say that everyone is responsible, and an old man said: "How can everyone be responsible!" ”

"This time, the Qin soldiers of Pei County died a lot of people, do you think others will believe that this is a person's doing?" The man who had just said that everyone was responsible, responded.

"Yes, there are thousands of people here, and the intention is obvious, that is, they want to slaughter the city." One continued.

"Even if it's not, we hand over a few people, it still can't calm their anger, it's nothing to be a county order, but now people are convicting us of rebellion." The old man said that they understood that things would not end so simply.

"In that case, then we can only win this tough battle, at all costs." The old man knew that Pei County had no way out, so he could only resist one way.

"It seems that this is the only way." Everyone nodded, this was the best way to do it now.

"Again, who will be the one in charge of this." Once again, the old people are back to this question.

"Ladies and gentlemen, so far, ours has not retreated, or we recommend Liu Bang to be the leader, what do you think?" Xiao He also said it again, which was also the purpose of his coming here this time.

"Liu Bang?" Some people are very confused.

"No, no." Someone began to object.

"Yes, Liu Bang is a reckless person, and he can't make a big deal!" One more objected.

"yes, it's not a joke." One more dissenter.

Xiao He had already thought of this, and knew that they would oppose it, so he said to everyone: "Everyone, have you heard a rumor, it is rumored that Liu Bang is the son of the Red Emperor and once killed the son of the White Emperor!" ”

When the old man heard this, they had heard it too, but a long time had passed, and they didn't remember it for a while.

Xiao He said: "Let me tell you, according to his brothers, Liu Bang's slavery passed through Dangshan and met a white snake as thick as a waist to block the way.

Some people persuaded Liu Bang to take a detour, but you all know that the old people said that the white snake was an ominous person, and Liu Bang did not listen to his subordinates.

said that the husband was afraid of something, so Liu Bang saw the white snake, drew his sword and went to cut it, and instantly cut the white snake into two pieces.

Liu Bang skinned the white snake, cramped, and even ate the bitter gall, and then he was fine, do you think this is magical? ”

It's a bit strange, they've all heard of it, and although they don't know if it's true or not, they sometimes have to believe it.

"We've heard about it, but what happened, the hell does." The old man was skeptical.

"Yes, after all, there is no snake as thick as a waist, it's a bit exaggerated!" Said in an old man.

Xiao He saw that everyone didn't believe it, in fact, Xiao He didn't believe it either, if he didn't see it with his own eyes, who would believe it.

Xiao He said: "Everyone, I know you may not believe it, but I asked Liu Bang privately about it, but I didn't say it so heroically.

He knew that if the slave ran away, he would be executed if he went to Lishan, so he simply let everyone die, drank some wine, and didn't think much about it when he encountered the white snake blocking the way.

At that time, he was dazed, and naturally he didn't know that the white snake in front of him was a behemoth, and he picked up his sword, and he told me about this, and he said that if he hadn't been drunk, he wouldn't have been able to do such a thing.

He regretted it a little now when he thought about it, but it wasn't the most terrible thing, they left the next day, and as they walked down the road, they saw some monster footprints, and a single toe print was bigger than ours.

He said that if he can live until now, it means that he is blessed with a great life, but I think that this is a great calamity, and if he does not die, he will be blessed. ”

Hearing what Xiao He said now, they believed it, no matter how they looked at Liu Bang, they would not be so heroic, it turned out that there was a reason.

"Since this is the case, then we will take Liu Bang as the person in charge of Pei County." One began to give his opinion.

"I agree, there is no one to choose anyway!" One more agreed.

"We agree." In the end, they all agreed.

There is no way to suffer, Xiao He is unwilling, and Pei County urgently needs someone in charge.

"In that case, I'll persuade Liu Bang again." Xiao He said to everyone.

"It's fine."

Xiao He left satisfied, the goal has been achieved, and now it is up to Liu Bang to make a statement.
