Chapter 407: Chen Ping is like-minded
Fan Junshi said that the realm of Western Chu was clear, and Chu Chen Ping choked up and fell in love with Han Du. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
After listening to Fan Zeng's words, Xiang Yu had to nod helplessly. After he had inspired the soldiers on the expedition, he immediately began to return to Pengcheng with the army.
After returning to Pengcheng, the Chu army immediately returned to the camp. After Fan Zeng returned to Pengcheng, he was not in a hurry to return home, but followed Xiang Yu first to the Chu Palace.
"Father, why did I run out of military rations in Xichu?! This king clearly remembers that my food in Xichu is very sufficient! ”
As soon as Xiang Yu and Fan Zeng entered the main hall, they hurriedly ordered their subordinates to retreat, and then began to ask about food. Although he believed that Fan Zeng would have a way, he wanted to know the ins and outs of the matter.
When Fan Zeng heard Xiang Yu's question, he immediately shook his head helplessly, and after a light sigh, he replied in a deep voice: "Yu'er, you don't know anything!" We had plenty of food because of the princes who were subject to us and kept feeding us. And the one who contributed the most was the land of Sanqin! But now that Sanqin has surrendered to Liu Bang, the fertile fields in Guanzhong have become his granary for Liu Bang. In addition, we have used troops repeatedly, and it is even more expensive! Therefore, now the military rations of our Western Chu are only enough to maintain the army to defend the territory! If you want to fight, I'm afraid you don't have that spare strength! And you let that Chen Ping at this time. ”
Knowing the reason for the lack of food, Xiang Yu was very annoyed. Thinking that all this was because he didn't follow Fan Zeng's advice, he couldn't help but feel a little ashamed of the other party.
After Fan Zeng explained the reason for the lack of food, he did not have any intention of reproaching. And when he saw Xiang Yu's guilty expression, he hurriedly comforted: "Yu'er, you don't have to be anxious!" The old man said, I have my own way to get military rations! And this is one of the reasons why the old man won't let you destroy Sanqi! ”
Hearing that the acquisition of military rations required three qi, Xiang Yu was very surprised. But before he could ask, Fan Zeng continued: "Sanqi has enough grain and grass, it should be usable!" But once we destroy the three Qis, then they are likely to burn the grain and destroy the city, and the jade will be burned! Although the three Qi are now hostile to us, the old man has a way to make them like. As long as they need to rely on us, they will naturally send money and food to solve our crisis. ”
After understanding Fan Zeng's plan, Xiang Yu was relieved. But as soon as he thought of Chen Ping's defection because of this, he immediately couldn't help but become angry again!
"This king treats him very well, but he actually wants to run away for this little thing! If he is willing to speak clearly to the king, how can the king blame him? ”
Hearing that Xiang Yu was annoyed that Chen Ping had fled, Fan Zeng seemed disapproving. After Xiang Yu finished complaining alone, he said slowly: "Yu'er, you don't have to pay too much attention to this matter!" In fact, the old man had long suspected that Chen Ping had different intentions. If it weren't for the talent of this man, I would have gotten rid of him early in the morning! You forced him away this time, which can also be said to be in addition to a piece of our heart. Because of the drama, you don't have to dwell on it. ”
Fan Zeng's persuasion made Xiang Yu feel a little relieved, although he didn't want to believe that Chen Ping had different intentions, but now he was convinced of Fan Zeng's words!
"Father, that Chen Ping's defection, although it can't shake us, I really can't figure out where he can go!"
Fan Zeng did not answer immediately after listening to Xiang Yu's question. At this time, he just looked at the west silently, which seemed to imply that it was the place where Chen Ping had defected.......
-------
After fleeing Pengcheng, Chen Ping really began to head towards Korea to the west. There was only one thought in his mind at this time, and that was to reach Zhang Liang's territory as soon as possible!
Liu Bang and Zhang Liang have been back in Handu for many days, and at this time, Liu Bang has gradually stepped out of the shadow of defeat, and at the same time regained his spirits, and began to discuss the future war with Zhang Liang!
"Liang Zai, now Sanqi has been defeated, and Xiang Yu has won but not destroyed Sanqi. What do you think he wants? ”
Liu Bang used the special title used only when he was with Zhang Liang at the moment, in addition to showing closeness, but also wanting to ease the oppressive atmosphere of talking about troubled times!
“boss! With Xiang Yu's character, Sanqi sneaked up on his Pengcheng, and it was impossible for him to be weak and indestructible, so I expected that this was Fan Zeng's idea. As for why Fan Zeng is like this, I can't figure it out. ”
Hearing that Zhang Liang didn't know the reason, Liu Bang looked very lost. After sighing slightly, he immediately asked, "Then do you think that now that you and I have integrated the forces of the two families, and then attacked Xiang Yu together, will we have a chance of winning?" ”
Zhang Liang actually thought about this problem, but unfortunately he couldn't think of a way to win. At this moment, when he heard that Liu Bangti had this idea, he had to tell his thoughts truthfully.
“boss! To tell you the truth, I also thought about joining forces to attack Xiang Yu, but I couldn't predict the outcome after all. Although you and I are not inferior to him in strength now, the fighting quality and ability of the sergeants are still a little worse after all. Although we have our own strengths, the only thing I can think of is to lose both! If that's the case, then what's the point of our fight?! And this is just my prediction, it is very likely that our union will not be able to defeat him Xiang Yu! ”
After listening to Zhang Liang's words, Liu Bang immediately fell into deep thought. At this time, he remembered the situation when he was in Pengcheng and fought with the Chu army, and at that time he had vaguely discovered that his sergeants were indeed inferior to the Chu army.
Seeing that Liu Bang was already silent, Zhang Liang suddenly raised his own questions.
“boss! Xiang Yu and I can be said to be incompatible, but to put it bluntly, it is because of Yu Xi that he will not hesitate to fight. Although this reason seems ridiculous to others, I feel that I have a clear conscience. But what about you? Can you tell me, what are you for? Is it just for the friendship between you and me?! Do you have the heart to compete for the world? “
Liu Bang never thought that Zhang Liang would ask him this question so directly, and he was already a little overwhelmed at this time. Although this question caught him a little off guard, after a moment of contemplation, he replied truthfully: "Liang Zai! I can seriously tell you that Lao Tzu doesn't have that ambition! The reason why I came out of Shu to help you is that in addition to the friendship between you and me, I also know the truth that my lips are dead and my teeth are cold. Now the only one in the Central Plains who dares to resist Xiang Yu is you, if you are gone, even if Xiang Yu will let me go, then how can Fan Zeng easily give up Shudi?! The world is indeed a good thing, and I will envy the majesty of the Qin Emperor! But I'm probably still too lazy, and I think one king is enough! ”
Hearing Liu Bang's answer, Zhang Liang immediately sighed bitterly. And Liu Bang was very puzzled when he saw him!
"Liang Zai, why did I say that I have no intention of the world, you would have such an expression?! Do you think I should go for it? ”
Liu Bang's question made Zhang Liang very difficult, because he was really unwilling to let Liu Bang embark on a path that everyone yearns for, but is lonely.
"Boss, I don't know what to say. I just want to ask you, if we defeat Xiang Yu, I will definitely take my beloved wives to travel the world. At that time, what will we do with this vast land? Would you rather let it be governed by someone else?! ”
Zhang Liang's question left Liu Bang speechless, and he almost didn't think about it. At this time, he felt an abnormal headache, so he chose to escape temporarily.
"It seems too early to say all this now, and defeating Xiang Yu now is the right thing. What kind of world are you and I discussing here now, isn't it a bit of putting the cart before the horse?! ”
In fact, Liu Bang never doubted Zhang Liang's ability, and he even believed that as long as he was there, he would definitely be able to defeat Xiang Yu in the end. But at this moment, he could only lead the topic to defeating Xiang Yu first.
Liu Bang's words shocked Zhang Liang slightly, and at this time, he also thought that he should consider fighting against Xichu. And just as they were constantly analyzing the situation in front of them, Zhang Yun suddenly broke into the palace, and then reported anxiously: "King, King Han!" Here it comes! Here it comes!! ”
Zhang Yun's brainless words made Zhang Liang and Liu Bang confused. Looking at Zhang Yun, who was panting, Zhang Liang only felt speechless.
"Coming? What's coming? What's coming?! Yes, make it clear! Hold your horses! ”
Zhang Liang's reminder made Zhang Yun realize that his words were informal. After adjusting his breathing slightly, he could hear him say again: "King, Lord Chen Ping is here!" It's just outside the palace gates now! He said... He said he was here to join you!! ”
Hearing that Chen Ping was coming to vote, Zhang Liang jumped up. At this time, he was like a child, not only happy, but also very excited!
"King Han!! This Chen Ping is the key to our ability to defeat Xiang Yu, fast! Come with me to meet him! ”
Liu Bang has been until Chen Ping, and he has also received help from the other party, so he has a good impression of him. But when Zhang Liang said that the other party was the key to defeating Xiang Yu, he also danced, and then ran to the palace gate with Zhang Liang!
After Chen Ping arrived in Handu, a hanging heart was finally able to land. And when he settled his family, he immediately came to the Han Palace and asked to see Zhang Liang.
When he was young, Zhang Liang and Liu Bang appeared in front of Chen Ping's eyes together. As soon as Chen Ping saw the two, he hurriedly bowed down and bowed.
Zhang Liang saw that the other party wanted to salute, so he hurriedly pulled the other party up. After grabbing the other party's arms, he laughed loudly: "Chen Ping! Chen Ping! Do you want Lao Tzu to blind his two eyes??!! Do you know how anxious I am waiting for you?!"
After Chen Ping's salute was blocked, he had to wait all the time. And when he heard Zhang Liang's words, tears flashed in the corners of his eyes.
After a long time, Chen Ping still didn't say a word. At this time, he was a little choked up with excitement. Looking at Zhang Liang and Liu Bang, who came to greet him in person, he suddenly felt that he was the happiest person in the world. And after trying to calm down the excitement, I saw him tremble and said: "King Han! King Han! I'm Chen Ping, I'm here to vote! (To be continued.) )
