Chapter 162: Pros and Cons
Huaiwang jade pendant, the symbol of the king of Chu, Liu Yuan looked at the jade pendant in Xiong Xin's hand and was surprised, it turned out that this jade pendant, which symbolized the identity of the king of Chu, had been privately hidden by Xiong Xin. This is a sudden change, the moment Xiang Yu saw Xiong Xin, he knew that his uncle's plan to support the king of Chu had failed, so after he weighed it, he made this strategy to correct the king, in order to take advantage of the chaos to kill Xiong Xin, so as not to fall into the righteousness of the king of Chu in the future. But people are not as good as heaven, Xiong Xin actually took out the Huaiwang jade pendant.
Seeing this, Liu Yuan immediately shouted loudly again: "With King Huai's Yupei as proof, you and the others are all Chu people, do you have to kill the King of Chu?" ”
"Kill the King of Chu?" As soon as Liu Yuan's words came out, the soldiers of the Xiang family army did not dare to attack the city, for the Chu people, how could they dare to do something rebellious to kill the king of Chu? And. These soldiers also began to look at Xiang Yu and the others, and they also had some doubts in their hearts.
"Not good!" Long He panicked in his heart, if it continued like this, the Xiang family's army would be unstable.
"General, don't go your own way." Ji Bu also advised, in fact, they also understood Xiang Yu's plan, but in the face of this Chu King Yupei, no matter how many words they spoke, they were pale and powerless.
Xiang Yu was aggrieved in his heart, but he was helpless against Liu Yuan, in the face of the current situation, his unruly heart was also without the slightest edge, he gritted his teeth and said: "Order, withdraw the army!" ”
A jade pendant of the king made Xiang Jiajun dare not cross the thunder pool by half a step.
The Xiang family's army moved when they heard the order, but when they retreated, they all saluted to Xiong Xin on the city tower. It can be seen that in the hearts of the people of the old Chu, the Chu royal family is still deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Liu Yuan's plan to support the king of Chu in this step can be described as a step ahead.
"Lord, I have finally withdrawn from the army." Zhou Bo breathed a sigh of relief, and the pressure just now also made him nervous.
Liu Yuan bowed slightly, he looked at Xiong Xin, and saluted respectfully: "Your Majesty, Xiang Yu has withdrawn." ”
"This person actually questioned Yu Widow, how could this Yan have such a descendant?" Xiong Xin was extremely angry at Xiang Yu's previous words, and he still said angrily at this moment.
Liu Yuan didn't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, he said lightly: "Don't worry about the king, this feather may be confused for a while, and the king still needs to subdue the Xiang family army at this moment, so it is not appropriate to be suspicious because of this matter." ”
"Well, what you said is extremely true, this family army is my old army, and it needs to be subdued as soon as possible." Xiong Xin also said in agreement, "However, who went to the Xiang family army camp?" ”
"Your Majesty, Zhou Bo is willing to go." Zhou Bo immediately came out of the queue and asked for his life.
"This, Liu Yuan, what do you think?" The only person Xiong Xin could rely on was Liu Yuan, and he also knew that Zhou Bo was the general under Liu Yuan's account, so he looked at the latter and asked as if he was soliciting.
Liu Yuan's heart sank, and secretly said that this bear's heart is not simple, "Everything is still subject to the king's arrangement." ”
"Well, that's good." Xiong Xin laughed, I don't know if it was because of Liu Yuan's attitude towards him, or because of Zhou Bo's request for help, Xiong Xin was very satisfied. "Zhou Bo listened to the order and ordered you to go to the camp of the Xiang family army immediately and subdue the army for the widow."
"No!" Zhou Bo immediately took the order and left.
"The widow is very tired, Liu Yuan, this place will be handed over to you." Xiong Xin waved his hand, and under the protection of Lu Ze, he hurriedly left the city tower.
After Xiong Xin left, Xiahou Ying said with a little anger: "Lord, this Xiong Xin is so arrogant, if it weren't for the lord, he would be able to have today?" ”
Liu Yuan's eyes also became more and more gloomy, and it can be seen from the series of conversations just now that this bear heart is not a person who is content with the status quo and is at the mercy of others. It seems like a few short sentences, but the meaning is intriguing.
"Making him king is just a check and balance on Xiang Liang. Don't worry, if this bear heart wants to make a move, it is undoubtedly a fool's dream. Liu Yuan said in a deep voice, not to mention himself, just Xiang Liang, and he would not really listen to Xiong Xin. And if this Xiong Xin wants him to fight with Xiang Liang in order to consolidate his position, it is ridiculous.
In the eyes of him and Xiang Liang, Xiong Xin is just a puppet. Of course, Xiang Liang has not yet arrived, and it is too early to say at this moment.
In the camp of the Xiang family's army, Xiang Yu had just entered the account when he suddenly heard that Zhou Bo, the envoy of the king of Chu, had come. When he was angry, he directly shouted: "Expel, if you don't obey, kill directly." ”
"General, it seems that this King of Chu is going to subdue my Xiang family's army." Jibu whispered from the side.
"Hmph. This bear's heart will calculate. Xiang Yu smashed his fist on the desk, "Want to subdue my Xiang Jiajun?" First of all, ask me about the halberd in my hand! Even if he is the king of Chu, he is just Liu Yuan's puppet, how can I, Xiang Yu, send Xiang Jiajun to Liu Yuan? ”
Zhong Liwu and the others all nodded their heads, although the soldiers of the Xiang family were reluctant to attack the King of Chu, but this Xiong Xin wanted to subdue them only by his own prestige, which was simply ridiculous. Not attacking the king of Chu and being loyal are two different things, and they should not be confused.
"The general will come soon, and the general should wait for the general to decide." Ji Bu said again.
"According to your words, the order will go down, and the whole army will rest." Xiang Yu's complexion improved slightly, and after a pause, he said again: "However, don't be negligent in defense." ”
"No, don't worry, general, I'll understand."
After Zhou Bo was expelled, he hurriedly met with Liu Yuan and Xiong Xin. After hearing Zhou Bo's narration, Xiong Xin was furious again, "Where is Xiang Liang?" How could this feather lead the troops? This person is rebellious, and the widow is quite disliked. ”
Liu Yuan just smiled, and did not postscript, and only after Xiong Xin's anger was vented did he say: "The king should take this opportunity to write about the old Chu in order to gather the forces of all sides of the old Chu in Pengcheng." ”
"Yes, how could the widow forget this text, fortunately, there is a reminder from you." Xiong Xin said with some joy, "This matter will be left to you to do, how to write the text, after you have considered it, it will be handed over to the widow for review." ”
"Yuan Order." Liu Yuan gave up.
This essay is also an art, how to write it, by whom, these are all an attitude of Xiong Xin. Now that Liu Yuan has an advantage among the princes of the old Chu, how can he coerce the Son of Heaven to order the princes, but this requires a good plan.
Now Liu Yuan has the heart of the bear, but he is still very scruples. After all, with his strength, he is not the largest of the various forces in the Ancient Chu. He wants to blackmail the Son of Heaven's strategy, but the premise is that he also needs his own strength as a confidence, otherwise, it is just boring for himself.
Xiang Liang and the others can respect Xiong Xin on the surface, but for Liu Yuan, they don't need to care about face. And whether Xiong Xin will always "trust" Liu Yuan is also unknown. Therefore, this time Liu Yuan's plan to support the bear's heart is also pros and cons, and overall, the pros outweigh the disadvantages.
The next day, outside Pengcheng, in the camp of the Xiang family's army, Xiang Liang finally led the troops to arrive.
