On the other hand, the Xiang family itself is full of talents, and in addition to the top Xiang Yu himself, there are also many members of his uncles and brothers.

Xiang Han, Xiang Tang, Xiang Sheng, Xiang Guan, Xiang It, etc., constitute the basic core of Xiang Liangjun.

In addition, there are Heng Chu, Zhou Yin, Chen Ying, etc., although they are not as famous as the Five Tiger Generals, they are also existences that cannot be ignored.

There are also Li Ji and the like, although they are also people who defected to Xiang Liang's command at the beginning, but there is another identity, which has appeared on other battlefields, and is the prince and king of the early Han Dynasty with Yingbu and Peng Yue.

Of course, there is another crucial existence that cannot be forgotten, that is, the brain and think tank of the Chu army - Fan Zeng.

Fan Zeng is a nest person, usually at home, so he has a good plan. At the time of Chen Sheng's Daze Township uprising, he was seventy years old. Soon, Xiang Liang led his disciples to cross the river to the west and became the main force in the anti-Qin struggle, and Fan Zeng went to defect, hoping to contribute his wisdom to the anti-Qin cause in his lifetime.

Fan Zeng and Xiang Liang met in Xuedi. At that time, Chen Sheng had been killed, Zhang Chu's banner had fallen, and the anti-Qin struggle was at a low ebb. Fan Zeng's arrival came at the right time.

The strategy proposed by Fan Zeng was to obey the wishes of the people and support the descendants of the king of Chu. Xiang Liang and others resolutely accepted Fan Zeng's proposal, found Xiong Xin, the grandson of Xiong Huai, the king of Chu Huai, who was herding sheep for others in the people, and reinstated him as the king of Chu Huai, creating the Chu state regime.

It was this kind of strategic designation that caused the power of the Chu regime to explode sharply, and the rebels of the world joined one after another. Although there were some accidents in the middle, Xiang Liang was broken by Zhang Han. But the ultimate goal of overthrowing the tyrannical Qin was also successfully accomplished.

However, the rest of the matter is needless to say.

The famous incident "Hongmen Banquet", the assassination conspiracy failed, Fan Zeng was furious, took out the sword he was wearing, smashed a pair of jade buckets (jade wine vessels) given to him by Liu Bang, and reprimanded Xiang Zhuang and secretly scolded Xiang Yu: "The erector is not enough and the plot, and the one who wins the king of the world will be the prince of Pei." ”

Such an upright and fierce personality is undoubtedly this person's biggest flaw, Liu Bang's adviser Chen Ping seized Xiang Yu's suspicious and arrogant characteristics, and used counter-plots. It separated the relationship between Xiang Yu and Fan Zeng.

caused a thing that has been widely regretted by everyone for a long time.

As for this person's ability, the systematic assessment is similar to Li Zuoche and several others, slightly inferior to Zhang Liang and Chen Ping. This was explained to Bao Hong when Li Zuoche was introduced earlier.

However, considering the impermanence of heaven and earth, Fan Zeng may have been strengthened in the minds of the people because of that regrettable relationship through the ages. After all, many people subconsciously want to make up for their regrets.

Moreover, according to records, Fan Zeng was curious. This is a point that can be targeted, but at the same time it is one of the most dangerous.

The thing of conspiracy plays an effect, that is, defeating the strong with the weak, exerting a subversive effect, and creating miracles. If you don't use it well, that is, you will lose all the games if you are short of breath.

Therefore, there is another word corresponding to the strange scheme, which is called risk.

On the other hand, it is to seek stability, and it will be suppressed by the general trend.

The value of the existence of the conspiracy is to find flaws, and in the face of overwhelming methods, you can't find flaws at all.

Perhaps the only flaw is the damage, and the purpose of any conspiracy is to work to reduce the end result of the damage.

This is also the crux of many people's arguments that Guo Jia's intelligence is higher than Zhuge .

This one often walks by the river, how can there be shoes that don't get wet. In order not to be caught in the trick and fail, you need to create a solid foundation with dignity and integrity, so that you can have the capital to continue after the omission.

Of course, if you continue to talk about politics. After all, this capital is made by politics. Therefore, there is a mastermind, and it is enough for Zhuge Liang to brush up the economy, politics and culture of Shu. Just like Guo Jia has to have Xun Yu behind him, although Dongwu Erzhang and Lu Su don't brush their faces much, their actual role cannot be ignored.

Looking back at this Fan Zeng, during the Qin and Han dynasties, especially when Fan Zeng had just come out of the mountain, it happened that Chen Sheng and Zhang Chu's army was exterminated for Zhang Han, and the strength of the anti-Qin army could be said to have dropped to the freezing point. In this case, steady and slow development is tantamount to chronic suicide.

Therefore, only by relying on the development of strange schemes can the strength expand rapidly, defeat the strong with the weak, form a sweeping trend, and succeed in destroying Qin.

The current situation is completely different. Tens of thousands of Yellow Turban soldiers need a certain level if they want to be white to the essence. The reason why Chen Sheng was defeated was, in the final analysis, because of the collapse of the upper leadership. It can even be said that Chen Sheng's control over his subordinates has not been restored after all.

If Fan Zeng didn't have to worry about the annihilation of the entire army if a failure of a trick failed, then more tricks might be even more whimsical and elusive. After all, if he sacrificed part of the bait a few more times to lure the enemy into the trick, it would be enough for someone else to drink a pot.

"Isn't Mr. Li ready to help?" Bao Hong greeted with a smile.

Regarding Fan Zeng's analysis, Li Zuoche was very concerned. Of course, it is only to help Bao Hong analyze the pros and cons, and even more to scare Bao Hong.

"Don't even think about it!" Li Zuoche waved his hand, indicating that he didn't want to fight his own ideas, "It's impossible for me to help you deal with the Yellow Turban Army, at most, I can see you say hello when you jump into the trap." ”

"However, I don't need to say that if you keep it for a long time, you won't have to say it? I'm not necessarily his opponent myself, let alone only defend and not attack, so don't count on me! Li Zuoche said with a smile.

"What does Mr. think of the group of people under Liu Biao?" Bao Hong waved his hand and said with a smile, "It seems that Liu Jingzhou is going to face such an opponent, what am I worried about!" ”

"Under Liu Biaojun, I only have contact with those few, and I feel that no one can do it without being pitted by Fan Zeng." Li Zuoche thought about it, and there were only a few people he came into contact with, "But these people, are they all going north and not staying to fight with Old Man Fan Zeng?" ”

Li Zuoche naturally asked Xun Wang and others who got on a boat and had a good chat with him.

"The old man doesn't have that ability!" Xun Wang waved his hand, he is also a scholar type, and his military strategy really can't reach the top level, at most it is second-class.

"I'm not very good at that." Sima Hui said with a smile, "But Zhicai, you can stay and take a look, originally we also had the intention of letting you learn from Pang Degong and them here." ”

"Hey, hey! I'm going to recruit them slowly, Mr. Shuijing, didn't you give me a chance by arranging them here? Bao Hong said with a smile.
