In the past, Chen Yu and Zhang Er were in Zhao State, and the authority of the two of them could even ignore Zhao Xie after joining forces, which can be described as monstrous.

Now, everything has passed through time, Qin and Wei still have country names, although they are feudal countries, but they really leave a "name", and the rest, including the name "Zhao", has become a part of history.

Liu Bang doesn't look down on Chen Yu, and he doesn't seem to have anything to look down on, he just thinks that Chen Yu has no influence on the center, and then Chen Yu himself doesn't have any financial or human strength, and thinks that cooperating with such a person is not helpful at all.

Since you want to do great things, you always need to find someone with energy. If the person with the energy is a goofy-looking guy himself, then it's all too good.

"Huh?" Han Xin was stunned for a moment, and asked rhetorically: "What does the baron mean, to incorporate the armies of those Western Regions countries?" ”

Originally, Han Xin was discussing something with Yu Fanjun, but after Liu Bang came over, he hesitated when he saw Yu Fanjun present and said the purpose of coming.

Maybe it was because of Yu Fanjun's presence, Liu Bang said it a little implicitly, but the meaning was undoubtedly very obvious.

The envoys must continue to go west, because that is their mission. However, it is a bit difficult for the envoys to continue westward now, after all, the king of Wan and Maudun have not yet received a reply to the Empire's request for peace, and they do not think that the Empire will accept peace, especially since the probability of reaching peace with Maudun is negligible.

What to do? Is it really waiting for the Western Corps to solve the Maudun? Obviously, it is also a very difficult thing, and Meng Tian has said it more than once. If Maudun did not fight a frontal battle, not only would the Western Expeditionary Corps not be able to completely annihilate Maudun, but it would be impossible for anyone to annihilate Maudun, who was bent on escaping.

Since the threat of Maudun cannot be removed. So it's always a good idea to insure yourself as much as you can, right? At least that's what Liu Bang meant.

Yu Fanjun interjected and asked, "Envoy, do you know Feng Zheng?" ”

"Feng Zheng?" Liu Bang knows! He said: "Feng Quji's son, father and son are both former Qin State Guannei Marquis, and they are also generals in the army. What's wrong? ”

Han Xin took over the topic and said, "Feng Zheng is on his way to the Western Regions. ”

Liu Bang was stunned, he couldn't hold back any longer. He scolded: "As the chief envoy of the envoys, why do I always need to hear new news from other people!" It seems that anyone can get the news before me! ”

"The military's Di Bao system ......" Han Xin extinguished Liu Bang's burning anger with a sentence, saying, "Do not share it with other systems." ”

So let's put it mildly. It is really not for nothing that the civilian clique wants to suppress the military, the military general clique is easy to get promoted and make a fortune, and it is also a priority in any sequence, and the social status is because of the propaganda of the empire in the past ten years. Not only does it have a lot of priority privileges. Some positions are also only considered for the recruitment of ex-servicemen.

Privileges or something, people have won it by throwing their heads and spilling their blood, and there is nothing to say. What the civilian clique can't stand is that the military always has the exclusive use of some things that must be communicated, resulting in many embarrassing responses from the civilian clique due to the lag in information.

Liu Bang is now very embarrassed in the face of Han Xin and Yu Fanjun's faces. He twitched his cheeks, deciding that nothing had happened just now, and asked, "What is Feng Zheng doing in the Western Regions?" ”

"Maudon has always been in a high-pressure regime, and there is room for manipulation in it." Yu Fanjun touched his chin. As he spoke, he invited Liu Bang to sit down and poured a glass of grape wine for Liu Bang. Then he said: "Feng Zheng was entrusted by the center, and he was responsible for carrying out the co-optation and division against the Xiongnu in the Western Regions. ”

"This ......" Liu Bang had the urge to vomit blood again, he originally wanted Mao Sui to recommend himself to do something to divide and win over, and this time he came to Han Xin to get Han Xin's support. He said, "If I'm not mistaken, Feng Zheng is the minister of Qin Fengguo, right?" ”

"Yes." Yu Fanjun bowed his head and said: "So Feng Zheng also came with the nature of opening the way for the Qin King's department. ”

Calculating the time, the precursor of King Qin Fusu should also come to the Western Regions, but Liu Bang didn't know what kind of situation it would be, whether King Qin Fusu would come over in the first batch, or Meng Yi would bring people over first.

Speaking of Meng Yi, he is Meng Tian's sibling. The current situation of the two brothers is that Meng Tian is serving as a general of Zhengxi in the empire, and they seem to be mixing quite well; Meng Yi has been working for Fusu, and he is currently the minister of state in the Qin feudal state, and he is also a high authority no matter how you look at it.

Because the two Montessori brothers mixed quite well, some good people had some gossip that Montessori was favored by the ruler in order to obtain high positions.

Maybe some guys are not wrong to say that, the Montessori brothers really have to win the favor of the ruler to have the opportunity to show their talents, and many people who are also talented, even if they have the ability to the sky, there is no room to show it. But I have to mention that many times being able to get yourself favored is also a skill, isn't it?

"Then it's not clear." Han Xin didn't beat around the bush when he spoke, and in the face of Liu Bang's question, he replied directly: "There is no news that Meng Yi will come later, but Li Si has taken over the Viceroy Province formed by the integration of the counties in the Northwest, and the Western Regions will need to rely on the material support of the Northwest Governor's Province for a long time. ”

Liu Bang was keenly aware of one point, the emperor seemed to be deliberately throwing the civil and military forces of the Qin family to the northwest?

Let's take a look at the people in a series of official positions! Li Si of the Northwest Governor's Province was originally the court lieutenant of the Qin State, and then the general of the expedition to the north was Meng Tian, the original general of the Qin army, and the person in charge of the Yinshan War was Xu Yan, who was from the Qin clan,...... There are many more official positions that are all from Qindi.

Naturally, being born in Qindi does not mean that they will be monolithic, and the reality is that those people are quite contradictory. It is estimated that it is precisely because there are contradictions that can form a containment in a certain sense, so the emperor will make such personnel arrangements?

"I found that your psychology is really dark." Yu Fanjun said with a smile, seeing that Liu Bang looked like he was about to turn his face, he waved his hand and said, "I don't mean anything else, I just think it's a good thing." ”

Liu Bang had a dark face: "Isn't it for everyone's responsibility?" ”

Yu Fanjun nodded in agreement with Liu Bang's words.

Definitely. With a black-bellied person in charge, the people under his command will have a lot of freedom, and the most important thing is when there is any benefit. The black-bellied chief officer must be the first to pounce, and if the chief officer takes the lead, others will be embarrassed, and they should be on it.

"This place in the Western Regions, it's good to stay for a while, at least you should eat with a mouth full of oil, and no one has given up." Liu Bang felt that it was better to spread it out, and no longer covered it up: "But I've stayed for a long time, and I don't mention a series of troubles." I don't want to die old in this damn place at all, and I want to go back to my home country and do something good for my family. ”

Family? As long as there is a little bit of identity, when they gain status and status. Who wouldn't think about their family?

"There's one thing I've been thinking about lately." Liu Bang held the grape wine in his hand, looked serious, and said: "Streamline and start, or have more force." But King Qin disrupted my plans. ”

"You're thinking too much." Yu Fanjun said directly: "Want to streamline your departure? How many people should be offended? ”

"I'm really going to do that if I'm forced to do something!" Liu Bang also waved his fist as if to strengthen the credibility of his words. Spilled some of the wine in his hand. He said, "Compared to offending people. I'd rather finish the task sooner! ”

Han Xin dodged just now, he should have been splashed if he didn't dodge, the wine was sticky, and he didn't want to take a shower before it got dark.

"General Meng has mentioned that the precursor of King Qin will come over in the autumn at the latest." Liu Bang sighed lowly: "I originally just dealt with it casually, but I didn't expect to really cooperate with them." ”

"General Meng?" Han Xin also asked slightly confused: "What did he say?" ”

Yu Fanjun directly covered his face with his hands, he knew that Han Xin was dull, but it seemed that he had mentioned it before. Dare to love Han Xin is not remembered at all.

Liu Bang also looked at Han Xin in a bit of a daze, and said in astonishment: "Didn't you agree last time?" ”

Han Xin said very seriously: "Is there one? I always thought you were joking. ”

"Ahem!" Yu Fanjun hurriedly opened the topic: "It's an envoy." What do you mean now? ”

Liu Bang is extremely sure that Han Xin has a high military talent, but Han Xin is lucky not for this, it is that Han Xin has the identity of the only disciple of the emperor, otherwise Han Xin will eventually die even if he achieves high achievements.

"I mean!" Liu Bang put down the quilt heavily, raised his hand and said, "Collect the arms of those small countries, and then let them accept the leadership of the empire!" ”

Yu Fanjun blinked his eyes and said very seriously: "That doesn't seem to be what we should do. ”

"But it didn't say we couldn't do it!" Liu Bang was really relieved, he almost gritted his teeth and said: "The opportunity is in front of us, not only our opportunity, but also the opportunity of the empire, if you give up in vain, no matter what, you will be unwilling." ”

is really unwilling, before Liu Bang did not serve as the envoy of the envoy group, he was planning to get a piece of the pie in Nanyang. Successfully relying on Wei Fengguo, he was indeed able to obtain great benefits in southern Xinjiang, including forming a regional offensive and defensive alliance with Wei Bao, and also obtaining a piece of land to become a real lord.

Lord! It's exciting to think about, and Liu Bang also successfully persuaded a group of wealthy clans, and at the same time recruited a group of lords who only had honorary titles of nobility, he really wanted to do a big job in southern Xinjiang.

So far, Liu Bang has not figured out why the emperor chose himself to be the envoy of the envoy corps, compared to him, there are many people who are suitable as the envoy, but he was chosen. He had been promised by the Emperor that he would be given a knighthood if he returned to the Empire on a successful mission.

Knighthood promotion? I don't know how many people dream of becoming a nobleman, because becoming a nobleman in the empire will get unimaginable benefits, that is, why so many people sharpen their heads and squeeze into the army, which further creates the particularity of the military.

Want to become a nobleman on a non-military route? In fact, it is not without opportunities, but it is relatively difficult for people today.

Why? Relying on physical fitness to fight, that is the innate capital of able-bodied people, but if it is related to knowledge, there are many times when it is not hard to learn a knowledge that can really be learned well, and whether it will be used with knowledge is really inseparable from talent. Therefore, taking the scientific research route that is becoming more and more important, and then achieving achievements and ranking nobles, is not something that idle people can do at all. As for governing the place or something, the first premise is to read, read, and read...... Then the assessment becomes the government system, and then after a series of "passing the test" to become a landlord, only then can the stage be able to show talents.

Of all the ways down, is there a better chance of getting a knighthood than entering the military and relying on physical fitness? In an age when 99 percent of the population is illiterate, there really is no better way to become a nobleman than by fighting hard. Therefore, even if you know that you will succeed in one thing or something, you can't reduce people's enthusiasm for pursuing.

"Actually, it's not so easy to mix in the army now!"

"Joining the army is still the easiest option compared to any other route."

"That's ......"

Yu Fanjun has just expressed his support for what Liu Bang is going to do next, and Han Xin has also expressed limited support.

Han Xin's so-called limitations, he didn't have too complicated thoughts, that is, he couldn't hinder the empire's strategic deployment of the Western Regions, once what Liu Bang wanted to do conflicted with the empire's strategic deployment, then he would withdraw.

Hearing Han Xin say the kind of words that only children can say, Liu Bang was speechless and felt very funny at the same time, even Yu Fanjun also stared at Han Xin several times with idiot eyes.

Some things are either not involved in the beginning, and once they participate, there is no possibility of withdrawing, and it is estimated that Han Xin, who has a lack of emotional intelligence, will say something like that.

Liu Bang got the consent of the two main military attaches of the envoy corps, and he went to the Western Expedition Corps to find Meng Tian.

"Integrate those natives of the Western Regions?" Meng Tian looked at Liu Bang, who was full of interest, with a rather strange expression, as if he didn't understand, and asked repeatedly: "Does it include the army and the country?" ”

Liu Bang nodded embarrassedly with a shy face, he had that idea, but if he really did it from the beginning, he didn't mention what the reaction of the center would be, and there should be a large group of people who would jump to the feet of the Western Expeditionary Corps.

How many people are counting on making a fortune in the Western Regions now! Liu Bang has no problem uniting some people (the country) in a limited way, but it is certain to offend people by doing things that are "round", even if it is done in the interests of the country, after all, the interests in it are too great, so big that even Meng Tian, who is the general of Zhengxi, does not dare to swallow it alone.

"What's that......" Liu Bang blinked, "hehehe" laughed for a long time, looked at the people present, and said, "Isn't this coming to ask for opinions!" The implication is that you don't dare to swallow it alone, and everyone will do it together if there are good things. (To be continued.) )
