Xiao He, who stayed in Fengyi, suddenly returned to Pei County, Liu Bang knew that something was wrong, and when he came to the hall, Xiao He was dusty, and his face rarely showed a worried look, "It's not a good thing!" Yongya surrendered to the King of Wei! ”

"What the hell is going on?" Liu Bang asked in a deep voice: "You speak slowly." ”

Xiahou Ying brought a bowl of tea, Xiao He took it, drank it in one go, wiped his mouth and said: "Wei Xiangzhou City sent someone to surrender, Yongya agreed, I couldn't persuade it, and escaped overnight." ”

When everyone heard this, they immediately exploded.

Fan Xuyuan opened his eyes, his eyebrows were furrowed, and he roared: "I have long seen that Yongyan is not pleasing to the eye!" Although this kid is also from Pei County, he has not been with us since he was a child. ”

Cao Shen nodded and said: "Yongya is born strong, and it is inevitable that he will have a high heart. ”

Xiahou Ying scolded: "I didn't expect him to do such a thing!" ”

It turned out that Chen Sheng, the king of Chen, ordered his subordinates, the former Wei native Zhou City, to pass through Wei. Zhou City established Wei as the king of Wei and appointed himself as the minister of Wei. Taking advantage of Liu Bang's absence, Zhou City sent envoys to recruit Yongya, the main general who stayed in Fengyi.

Everyone, you say a word to me, and scold Yongyan is not authentic.

Liu Bang's face turned blue and scolded: "Go back and clean up this guy now!" ”

Liu Bang immediately led his troops back to attack Fengyi, and Yongya was ready. Liu Bang has not yet achieved complete control over this rebel army, and the leadership of the rebel army has split, anyway, it is an internal dispute, and the soldiers are acting on the battlefield, and they are homesick, who is embarrassed to really fight!

As expected, Fengyi was not captured. Liu Bang was angry and sick. Under the pretext of illness, he found the bottom of the stairs and led the troops back to Peixian.

Fengyi has to be solved after all! His own authority is not enough, so he has to borrow a bigger flag, Liu Bang thought. Jing Ju, a nobleman of the original Chu State, was proclaimed as the false king of Chu by another rebel army. Liu Bang went to defect, intending to borrow troops to attack Fengyi.

Halfway through, Liu Bang met Zhang Liang, who also came to join Jingju. After Zhang Liang was a Korean nobleman, his grandfather and father served as the state minister of five generations of Korean kings. The two met and talked and fell in love very closely.

Liu Bang smiled and said: "I originally came to borrow soldiers, but I didn't expect to meet Mr." If the gentleman is willing to help me, it is better than 100,000 soldiers! ”

A trace of shyness appeared on Zhang Liang's white face, and he arched his hand and said: "I studied under Huang Shigong, learned the art of war, and usually discussed with others, no one can understand, Pei Gong, you can understand as soon as you hear it, your wisdom is innate!" ”

Zhang Liang gave up the idea of defecting to Jingju and switched to Liu Bang.

The army of the Qin Dynasty approached Chu, encircled and suppressed the rebels, and slaughtered innocent people. Liu Bang temporarily put aside the internal contradictions, led the army to the west, met the Qin army, the initial battle was unfavorable, and after replenishing the troops and grain and grass, the Qin army was repulsed. Liu Bang took advantage of the victory to capture Xiayi, and the righteous army expanded to nearly 10,000 people. Liu Bang thought that the time and strength were ripe, and attacked Fengyi again, but still failed.

Liu Bang heard that Xiang Liang was stationed in Xue County. Half a year ago, Xiang Liang and Xiang Yu raised troops in Wuzhong, and then crossed the river to the north, and the team grew to 60,000 or 70,000 people, the strongest in Chu.

Liu Bang left his army to surround Fengyi, and he only brought more than 100 cavalry to Xue County to ask Xiang Liang for help. Liu Bang already had a certain amount of influence in Chu at this time, and Xiang Liang wanted to take this rebel army under his command, and Liu Bang's honesty also made Xiang Liang feel good.

Xiang Liang allocated Liu Bang ten generals and five thousand soldiers. Liu Bang thus became a general under Xiang Liang's subordinates. Liu Bang attacked Fengyi for the third time, but Yongya was unable to defeat him, fled to Wei, and later took refuge in Zhao, and finally surrendered to Liu Bang. Yongya was not only not killed, but was also unexpectedly named Hou, and unexpectedly became the protagonist again.

At this moment, Liu Bang and Xiang Yu met. Liu Bang is twenty-four years older than Xiang Yu, and Xiang Yu calls Liu Bang "eldest brother". The brothers who fight side by side today, he fights for the hatred of the world every day. At this time, they don't know the ending, they even get along well, they will eventually drift apart, love and kill each other!

The Qin Dynasty appointed Zhang Han as a general, pardoned 700,000 Lishan prisoners, issued weapons, and sent a letter to Guguan to suppress the uprising. The Qin army beheaded Wei Xiang Zhoushi, the king of Wei committed suicide in defeat, and Wei Bao, the younger brother of Wei Bao, fled. Chen Sheng and Wu Guang were killed one after another.

After receiving the exact news that Chen Sheng was dead, Xiang Liang adopted Fan Zeng's suggestion and found Xiong Xinli, the grandson of King Chu Huai, from the people to become the king, also known as King Chu Huai. King Huai of Chu named Xiang Liang as Wu Xinjun and Feng Fan Zeng as a general. Fan Zeng is a strange person, he is already seventy years old when he came out of the mountain. At the time of the Qin and Han dynasties, when the stars were shining and heroes were rising, Fan Zeng became one of the first-rate talents with his foresight and resourcefulness, and Xiang Yu called him "the second father".

Xiang Liang ordered Xiang Yu and Liu Bang to lead an army to attack Chengyang (Hezedong, Shandong). After breaking the city, Xiang Yu issued an order to slaughter the city: "Men, women and children, no one will be left!" ”

Liu Bang couldn't bear it and persuaded: "The people are innocent. ”

Xiang Yu Senran said: "The people of Chengyang are not innocent when they help the Qin army defend the city. ”

After speaking, he smiled again: "The eldest brother is benevolent, and he can't be a general." ”

Liu Bang had no choice but to laugh. On the way back to the camp, Liu Bang rode on a horse, and saw the people's houses on fire along the road, and heard terrible cries from time to time, and couldn't help frowning and sighing.

The rebels pursued the Qin army to the east of Puyang and defeated the Qin army again. The Qin army was resupplied and reorganized. Liu Xiang and the others avoided the enemy's sharp qi and bypassed the attack on Dingtao. Dingtao did not take it, gave up, attacked Yongqiu (Qixian County, Henan) to the west, and killed Li You, the defender of Sanchuan County of the Qin Dynasty. Li You also has another identity, he is the eldest son of Li Si, the left prime minister of the Qin Dynasty.

Li Si didn't know that his eldest son had died in battle, and his life was not easy.
