Chapter 277: Twelve Golden Figures

Jiujiang to the border, Yingbu into the Han court; A word to complain of depression, and another to say Qin Jinren!

I heard that Zhang Liang took the law of Shang Yang as an example. Liu Yu immediately understood the deep meaning. Since the Shang Dynasty changed the law, the Qin State has gradually become stronger. His changes were initially unknown, but after the results were widely circulated. But even if other countries knew about it, they couldn't follow suit. The political system of the country and the stakes are one thing, and the absence of a person who can fully implement and skillfully apply and understand the new law is a fatal flaw.

Although Zhang Liang's training methods in the new army are known to others, but there are no soldiers and skilled generals who can lead them correctly, then all this is in vain!

"King Han is really powerful, this uncapitalized business is really ingenious. It's a pity that the King of Wei and the King of Dai still don't know the mystery. ”

Hearing Liu Yu praise himself, Zhang Liang immediately smiled proudly: "Brother Liu, I said that I am a "leather fence", and the soup has never leaked. Teaching them the training method is already my biggest effort, which is basically equivalent to pulling money down from my rib wishbone. ”

Hearing that Zhang Liang showed off his stinginess without a bottom line, Liu Yu had to smile bitterly and shook his head. Then he secretly said in his heart: Fortunately, Zhang Liang is not a businessman, otherwise he must be the most treacherous businessman in the world, even if he sells people, people will help him count the money.

Two days later, after the king of Wei and the king of Dai sent their own sergeants who were in charge of learning the training of the new army to Korea, they all deduced that there was a change in the country and began to withdraw their troops.

At the same time, the armies of the various princes, who were already approaching the Korean border, immediately stopped their march after learning the news of the withdrawal of the two countries. Some stopped to see the situation, while others began to look for reasons to withdraw. But they all made the same move, secretly sending envoys to South Korea to find out the inside story and ease relations.

Until this time, only 60,000 horses and horses of Yingbu Road were still advancing. A few days later, they arrived at the border of South Korea.

Originally, the soldiers of Yingbu were full of confidence, but after learning that the princes of all walks of life were either discouraged or began to evacuate, and only because of Zhang Liang, the king of Han, and a Confucian scholar named Liu Yu, they also had negative emotions and wavering. "Great King, the alliance of the Ten Princes gathered by Fan Junshi is now the only one left with us. Although we have 60,000 soldiers and horses, I heard that the Korean army is very powerful, and the king of Han is resourceful. We don't necessarily have a chance of winning. Where do you think we go from here? “

Hearing the questions of his generals, Yingbu did not show any uneasiness or trepidation. I saw him smiling and said slowly to his subordinates: "I didn't want to be an enemy of King Han. If it weren't for Fan Junshi's coercion and temptation, how could I have led the army here! Now that the situation is better, we can say that it is difficult to support alone, so as to avoid a conflict with South Korea, and Fan Junshi can also have an explanation from there. It's the best of both worlds. “

Hearing that King Yingbu of Jiujiang had no intention of sending troops at all, the sergeants all let go of the big stones in their hearts. But he was a little puzzled that after learning that the princes had retreated, he still entered the Korean border. "The king is wise, but since you have no intention of conquering, why do you want to come to this Korean border?"

Seeing that his sergeant didn't understand his deep meaning, Yingbu smiled casually: "This posture still needs to be there." Otherwise, the overlord will not be able to get by. And I want to meet King Han. After all, congratulations to him on his ascension! “

In the main hall of the Han Palace, Zhang Liangzheng and the officials celebrated the lifting of the siege of the princes' coalition. Some of the officials who were originally wavering no longer had any doubts about the ability of King Xinhan at this time.

Prime Minister Li You lamented that the crisis had been resolved, and at the same time, he was also full of praise for Liu Yu. "Liu Fuzi and Han Wangzhu are a perfect match. The two retreated with only a few words, and the other princes also stopped marching because of the retreat of the king of Wei and the king of Dai, and also sent secret peace. It's really a great contribution to my Korea. “

Although Liu Yu has no official position, as the person who resolved the crisis in South Korea, he also celebrated with everyone in the main hall. Hearing that the prime minister praised him, he hurriedly bowed down and replied, "The prime minister has won the award." It's just a little trick. It's still King Han's thoughts that can only have this effect a week ago! “

Seeing that the other party pushed the credit on himself again, Zhang Liang immediately grabbed it: "Master, you are not kind." It's your credit and yours, why don't you push it to me. I know you're afraid I'll invite you to join you. Don't worry, I keep my official position in South Korea for you, and you can say it when you want to do it. It's all right?! “

The words and laughter between the king's subjects made everyone in the palace laugh heartily. Just when everyone was immersed in joy, Wang Fang suddenly bowed to Zhang Liang seriously and proudly: "King, now the princes' alliance army has only Yingbu all the way. Although he had 60,000 men, the last general had the confidence to defeat him. Ask the king's brigadier to attack the enemy. “

Hearing that Wang Fang wanted to attack, Zhang Liang immediately waved his hand and said, "Wang Fang, don't bother." All you have to do is train your sergeants and expand your troops. Yingbu and we can't fight. Although he Chen soldiers at the border. But I reckon his envoy is coming. “

Not long after Zhang Liang's words fell, he saw a sergeant enter outside the hall. After seeing Zhang Liang, he bowed down and bowed: "King Qi, King Yingbu of Jiujiang led more than ten soldiers to my Han Capital. He wants to see the king! “

Knowing that Yingbu was actually coming, all the ministers were stunned. After Zhang Liang heard the news, he was also a little hard to believe. "Jiujiang Wang Yingbu is here in person?! He really gives face! Cheng, immediately open the palace gate, and I will personally go to greet him. Also, a banquet was prepared in the palace. “

Hearing that Zhang Liang was about to greet Yingbu, the sergeant hurried to pass the message. After Zhang Liang finished speaking, he asked the other officials to leave first, and at the same time ordered Wang Fang and Zhang Yun to sort out military affairs and check Bai Yuan's training. In the end, only the prime minister and Liu Yu were left to go to the palace gate with him.

After Zhang Liang and Yingbu saw each other, both sides clasped their fists and saluted each other. "King Han is really too polite. I came uninvited, and I hope that King Han will not be surprised. "Why should the King of Jiujiang be so polite. I can't look forward to you on weekdays, but since I'm here, I have to stay a few more days. The palace has already begun to prepare for the banquet, so please come with me. “

Li was a little confused by the words and actions of the two at this time. He couldn't believe that just a few days ago, everyone was worried about a big war between the two countries. But now, the lords of these two countries are so close together, and they have to drink and talk.

Just when Li You felt unbelievable, Zhang Liang and Yingbu had already entered the palace with their heads held high.

After the banquet was ready, Zhang Liang introduced Prime Minister Li You to Yingbu very enthusiastically, and Yingbu hurriedly greeted Li You at this moment, looking extremely friendly! When it was time to introduce Liu Yu, Yingbu suddenly said, "Liu Gongzi doesn't need to be introduced." I've known you since I was in Pengcheng, and it's a pleasure to see you again today, and to hear that you are a hero of Korea. “

Liu Yu saw that Yingbu praised him well, and felt incredible. According to common sense, the other party should hate himself very much, or look down on him. But he was extremely happy that he had helped Zhang Liang, and it seemed to be sincere.

Zhang Liang knew that everyone didn't know about this change, so he simply told Yingbu about saving himself in the past.

When Li You and Liu Yu learned the ins and outs of the matter, they suddenly realized.

When Yingbu saw that Zhang Liang dared to talk about the relationship between the two to each other, he knew that they were both trustworthy people. The four of them then began drinking and chatting.

When a few people were halfway through the banquet, Yingbu felt that he should always give an account of the soldiers, and then said to Zhang Liang with a strong drink: "King Han, I believe you already know. I sent troops this time at the direct behest of Fan Junshi. He appointed me as the commander of the coalition forces, and demanded that I, along with the princes, hold you accountable to the new Korean army. Although I have the heart to help you, Fan Zeng has my handle. I had no choice but to obey. Fortunately, you resolved the crisis in time, otherwise I really don't know how to solve this matter. “

After listening to Yingbu's words, Zhang Liang immediately asked him: "Brother Yingbu, you are already the king of Jiujiang, and you are still subject to Fan Zeng." This is a bit unreasonable! “

Although Zhang Liang's words sounded like accountability, Yingbu didn't mind. Because he knew that the other party was a man of temperament, and he said this because he really didn't understand the reason. "It's true. There are many generals under the overlord, but I am the only one who has been crowned king, in fact, there is a reason. Moreover, my king is just a soldier and horse stationed outside the army of his Xiang family, and he has no autonomy at all. “

Everyone has long been puzzled that when Xiang Yu was crowned king, he did not seal his relatives and generals, but he only added the title of Yingbu. At this time, seeing the other party mentioning it, Zhang Liang asked curiously: "What is going on?" Is there something unspeakable? “

Yingbu saw Zhang Liang asking about this, so he sighed helplessly. After a long time, as if he had mustered up his courage, he slowly said to everyone: "Actually, my throne was proposed by Fan Zeng, and he did it to reward me for killing Emperor Yi. “

Hearing that Emperor Yi's death was Yingbu's so-called, Li You and Liu Yu were extremely shocked! And Zhang Liang knew that Emperor Yi was actually not dead, so his emotions did not fluctuate much. "I see, it seems that my brother is also being restrained by Fan Zeng everywhere because of this matter, right?!"

Zhang Liang's words seemed to be talking about Zhongyingbu's pain, but he couldn't help shaking his head and sighing, and then said in a deep voice: "I really didn't expect that he, Fan Zeng, would use this matter as a lever to blackmail me." Fortunately, I listened to your opinion that day, King Han, and left a way back for myself, otherwise I am afraid that I would even have the heart to die at this moment. It's just that I'm not at a dead end now, and I don't want to take out the life-saving thing. “

Hearing that Yingbu said that he had listened to his own opinion, Zhang Liang immediately knew that what he was talking about was the release of Emperor Yi. Zhang Liang originally planned to persuade Ying Bu to make the matter public, but when he thought that Emperor Yi had escaped from this life of swords and swords, he couldn't bear to implicate him again. Just when Zhang Liang wanted to enlighten the other party, Yingbu suddenly said to himself resentfully: "If he Fan Zeng forces me hard, then I will also make his bad deeds in Xianyang public!! “

Hearing Yingbu's words, it seemed that he had mastered Fan Zeng's other handles. Driven by curiosity, Zhang Liang planned to ask what was going on.

At this time, Yingbu seemed to be a little drunk, and after hearing that Zhang Liang wanted to know the reason, he said without hesitation: "King Han, have you heard of the twelve golden men of Qin Shi Huang?!" ”
