Chapter 45 Linjiang and the country rest together
Born as a hero, death is also a ghost, so far thinking of Xiang Yu, refusing to cross Jiangdong.
……
At this moment, Xiang Tian couldn't help but think of this poem by the Southern Song Dynasty female lyricist Li Qingzhao. In his opinion, Xiang Yu's life is indeed a masterpiece of a generation.
Covering the whole world with his own strength, many Tianjiao who are pressed can't raise their heads, such a person can be called a peerless person.
Even in the 5,000-year-long history of China, Xiang Yu is still the dazzling one. Even compared with Emperor Qin and Han Wu, it is by no means inferior by half a point.
The Qin Emperor and the Han Dynasty are all arrogant, and the overlord of Western Chu is also a hero.
……
Now Xiang Yu has crossed Jiangdong, but Xiang Tian does not see the slightest possibility of a comeback, and the coalition of princes led by Liu Ji, the king of Han, besieges Jiangdong with 700,000 troops.
Even if Xiang Yusheng, the overlord of Western Chu, has three heads and six arms, he has no chance of making a comeback.
Xiang Tian had imagined more than once that if Xiang Yu had crossed Jiangdong, would the outcome of the Chu-Han hegemony be different.
Today, Xiang Tian has personally experienced why Xiang Yu killed the Wujiang River instead of crossing the river when he had a chance to make a comeback.
Because standing in Wujiang, Xiang Yu couldn't see hope.
Yafu Fan Zeng left, most of the sky in Western Chu had collapsed, Long He died in battle, Xiang Sheng, Zhong Lixi, and the generals of the Yuzi period died in battle.
The talents of Western Chu withered, 100,000 Chu troops died in battle, and only twenty-eight horsemen remained, even if Xiang Yuli could carry the tripod, it could not reverse the ending.
A country, a regime, or even an army cannot be supported by one person, but by countless like-minded people with lofty ideals, who can support the ambition of becoming king.
For Xiang Yu, instead of crossing the river and dying, it is better to die in Wujiang happily, 8,000 Jiangdong soldiers, none of them survived, and Xiang Yu had already sprouted the will to die at that time.
……
The thought flickered in his heart, Xiang Tian, and said: "Father crossed the Wujiang River, although Han Xin, the king of Qi, and Liu Ji, the king of Han, besieged him, but the situation is far stronger than ours."
"With my father's prestige in Chu, we can raise a large army casually, plus we have dragged the footsteps of Liu Ji, the king of Han, presumably Jiangdong will be safe."
……
Xiang Tian carefully considered his words, and did not dare to be careless in the slightest, because he knew that his words were not only for Xiang Sheng, but also for the 80,000 Chu army.
In this world, Xiang Yu is the prince of the princes, and he is the overlord of Western Chu who shocked the world.
Xiang Yu's name is far louder than him, the worthless prince, and he needs to use Xiang Yu's name to win the hearts of the army.
……
"Xiang Tian, I've seen King Linjiang."
"Virtuous nephew, please inside."
After seven days of non-stop marching, Xiang Tian and his party finally arrived at Jiangling. For this capital of Linjiang Country, Xiang Tian was full of curiosity.
"King Linjiang, please."
When he came to Linjiang Country, Xiang Tian's words and deeds were cautious and cautious, this time is different from the past, Xichu is still breathing, and he is no longer the prince of the country, the strongest in the world.
Now that the Chu army has taken refuge in Linjiang, the king of Linjiang has opened and closed the card and released it all the way, which is already a great kindness. Even if Xiang Tian was no longer interested, he would not offend the captain of the king of Linjiang and force this only alliance to Liu Ji, the king of Han.
……
Linjiang Palace, the guest of honor is seated.
After a pleasantry, the banquet, singing and dancing filled the hall, Xiang Tian drank, his eyes lingered on the singer, and for a while, the guests and hosts were happy.
"Virtuous nephew, I wonder how the overlord is now?"
After the singing and dancing, the hall was suddenly empty, and the king of Linjiang sat on the top of the head, his eyes were like torches, giving people a suffocating oppression.
"My father crossed the river into Jiangdong and was fighting against the coalition army in Moling, with my father's prestige in Chu and the ability to use troops, it must not be a problem to hold Jiangdong."
Xiang Tian replied like this to give the King of Linjiang an illusion, making him think that Western Chu still had spare strength, and as long as Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu, did not die, Western Chu would never die.
He wanted to inject a confidence in the heart of the King of Linjiang, so that his heart towards Chu would remain unchanged, so as to expand the influence of the State of Chu and stabilize the King of Linjiang.
Sure enough, as soon as Xiang Tian's voice fell, the face of the captain of the king of Linjiang changed slightly, and it was fleeting.
"Lone knows that King Xiang is unparalleled in the world, and how can he trap the Nine Heavens True Dragon ...... the siege of the wall?"
Linjiang Wang Gongwei is so knowledgeable, Xiang Tian naturally will not fall on the other side, he smiled slightly, and said.
"My father was able to break through from the wall, and Xichu was still able to fight, all thanks to the support of King Linjiang, when I broke through, my father had a sentence for me to bring to you."
Hearing this, the expression of the prince of Linjiang suddenly became solemn, and he looked at Xiang Tian, the prince of Chu, and said.
"I don't know what King Xiang's will is, please tell the virtuous nephew one by one."
Taking a deep look at the Linjiang King Gongwei, Xiang Tian paused word by word, and said: "Father asked Gu to tell you that Linjiang is in the same vein as the country, Western Chu is immortal, and the Gongshi is immortal."
"Boom!"
These words shocked Gongwei's heart, and at this moment he was moved in his heart, and for the first time realized that it was not wrong to stick to it.
Linjiang Wang Gongwei is worthy of being the lord of a country, and the mood fluctuations are only for a moment, and after a while, he cleaned up his emotions and said towards Xiang Tian, the prince of Chu.
"The virtuous nephew told King Xiang for Gu that Linjiang would not be destroyed for a day, and Lone would be Chu Chen for a day."
The meeting between Xiang Tian, the prince of Chu, and the prince of Linjiang in the palace of Linjiang was actually a unique alliance.
However, the alliance between the two countries is based on mutual commitments, which goes far beyond ordinary verbal alliances.
"King Linjiang, my Xiang clan will live up to you."
This time, Xiang Tian was guaranteed in the name of the Xiang clan, and the captain of the King of Linjiang was clear about Xiang Tian's record since he broke through the siege.
For such a Xiang Tian, the captain of Linjiang Wang is extremely optimistic, in his opinion, Xiang Tian is experienced in the use of soldiers, and is by no means inferior to Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu.
And from the disposal of Hengshan Kingdom, he saw the political methods of Xiang Tian, the prince of Chu, compared to Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu, the prince of Chu is undoubtedly a little more sensible.
Because of this, the captain of Linjiang felt that with Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu, and Xiang Tian, the prince of Chu, there was a chance for Western Chu to go out of Jiangdong and sweep the world.
Therefore, the captain of Linjiang Wang made a bet at this moment. Because he is optimistic about Xiang Tian, the prince of Chu, and even more optimistic about Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu.
……
"Prince, what's the situation?"
As soon as Xiang Tian went back, Wu Shi and Li Zuoche surrounded them together, and in the entire Chu army, only these two people understood the significance of the meeting between Xiang Tian, the prince of Chu, and the king of Linjiang this time.
Glancing at Wu Shi and Li Zuoche, Xiang Tian smiled slightly, and said: "Lone made an alliance with the king of Linjiang, the Linjiang matter has been completed, the army will rest for three days, and immediately go north to the Central Plains."
"No."
Nodding in agreement, Li Zuoche and the others turned around and left, and when they got the news, they were relieved. Because they knew that only by stabilizing the Linjiang State could the Chu army be relieved to go north.
