Chapter 258: The Vanishing Han Xin
Confucianism helps children, and the two are peaceful; Pengcheng lost the flying tiger, and from now on the world will go up!
Liu Yu fell into deep contemplation after listening to Ziying's words. It's not that he doesn't want to help Zhang Liang, but in this way, he is equivalent to completely devoting himself to South Korea. The idea that I didn't want to be a celebrity came to naught.
Ziying saw that the other party had not made a sound for a long time, and she was very anxious. But he chose to wait patiently after all, without any intention of urging or persecuting Liu Yu.
After a long time, Liu Yu finally made a decision. I saw him bow down to Ziying, and then said firmly: "Since Your Majesty trusts you, Zhang Situ is a person who respects you." I Liu Yu should deal with this matter. Even if people in the world scold me for being untrustworthy or looking at Qin and Twilight, I don't care. Today, even if I am pointed out by Qianfu, I will work with Your Majesty to ensure that Lord Zhang returns to Handu! ”
Hearing that Liu Yu had agreed to his invitation, Ziying was very happy. After talking to the other person about the set of action steps that you have developed, you start asking if they have a good opinion.
After listening to Ziying's statement, Liu Yu immediately said with a smile: "With a commander like Your Majesty guarding the border passes, students believe that the people of the Central Plains are worry-free!" Your decisions are based on the situation. But there is one more thing that should be noted. Even if Fan Lao can't see the clues and abnormalities from our army, it will be difficult to protect it within Han Du. Although Prime Minister Li Cheng and Lord Zhang Yun blocked the news, I am afraid that it will not be too long. Once the news leaks out and reaches Fan Lao's ears, he will definitely mobilize Xiang Yu, or directly skip Xiang Yu and send troops to attack us without authorization. At that time, the soldiers will be like arrows, and the battle will inevitably be not brave enough. In addition, we are in Chudi, once the grain and grass are cut off, it will completely become fish and meat to be slaughtered. ”
After listening to Liu Yu's analysis, Ziying couldn't help but tremble. This one person calculates, and two people count! Regarding the work of news blockade in South Korea, he is indeed a little lazy. "Liu Gongzi is very right! Ignored under the following. In your opinion, how should we prevent the leakage of information within Handu? ”
Seeing Ziying humbly asking for advice from him, Liu Yu hurriedly replied: "I propose to send the messenger to return to Handu immediately." And along the way, he kept chanting, "Zhang Situ has signed the Chu-Han Alliance!" In this way, it can not only exaggerate the matter of Chu and Han's peace talks, but also deter some young people in the Han capital. When the sergeant returned to Handu, he ordered him to explain the changes in the general and the way His Majesty should deal with it to Prime Minister Li Cheng in detail. I believe that the other party will definitely cooperate with Your Majesty's strategy and keep it a secret. I wonder what Your Majesty thinks? ”
After listening to Liu Yu's suggestion, Ziying did not answer the other party's question in time. Instead, he called Li Wen, who was waiting outside the tent, in as soon as possible. After instructing Li Wen to summon the sergeant who delivered the letter, he said gratefully to Liu Yu: "Liu Gongzi's method is very unique, but it is also the most effective. With Your Excellency here, I believe that I will be able to help Zhang Situ return to South Korea safely.
Seeing that Ziying adopted his own opinion and praised Youjia, Liu Yu felt very pleased. "Your Majesty has won the prize, this is just a little cleverness."
For Liu Yu to call himself His Majesty from beginning to end, Ziying seemed a little uncomfortable. "Liu Gongzi, as I said below, I am no longer an emperor or a monarch. Now he is just a border guard. If Liu Gongzi can afford to be below, he will call the name below, in my opinion, it is a hundred times better than those honorific titles in the past! ”
Seeing that Ziying really didn't like the honorific title, and was very sincere, Liu Yu immediately replied: "Even if you want to say goodbye to the past, then the student is respectful and obedient." It is indeed not in accordance with the etiquette law to call His Highness by name, so it is better to call you a "general"! ”
Hearing that the other party had changed his name, Ziying was sincerely happy. Although the other party did not change according to what he said, he no longer called himself His Majesty after all. As for the title of "general", although it is also a little uncomfortable, it is well deserved in the end, so it is barely acceptable! ――
In Fan Zeng's mansion in Pengcheng, a man in civilian clothes was waiting for Fan Zeng's instructions. "Zhou Yi, you have worked hard in Shuzhong. I don't know what to gain? “
When the man in civilian clothes heard Fan Zeng's inquiry, he hurriedly bowed down and clenched his fists and replied: "Military Master, the land of Shuzhong is not as barren as the world says. On the contrary, because there has been no war, the farmers and merchants are very prosperous. After Liu Bang entered Shu, he governed in Hanzhong. And he also continued to appoint officials of the Qin Dynasty. Now this Shu has been governed by him in an orderly manner! The overlord sent him to Shu, and it seemed that ......"
Seeing that Zhou Yi wanted to speak and stopped, Fan Zeng already knew what he wanted to say next. "Do you think that the overlord sent Liu Bang to Shuzhong, but it was actually a wrong move?"
Zhou Yi saw that Fan Zeng had already guessed what he was thinking, so he clenched his fists and didn't dare to make any answer. "How can the old man not know the false words of the world, and he can't be gullible. I already knew the richness of this Shu. When the overlord decided to let Liu Bang enter Shu, I also felt that it was inappropriate. But then I thought about it, no matter how rich Shuzhong is, it is impossible to reach one country with one domain! When Liu Bang entered Shu, I also sent people to follow him, hoping to burn the plank road and cut off the way out of his army. I never thought that he would actually do it himself. In this way, even if he Liu Bang has more food and soldiers and horses, he will not be able to leave Shu. As long as we find that he has signs of repairing the plank road, we can prepare in advance, and it will take at least ten years to repair the plank road. “
Hearing Fan Zeng's explanation, the man named Zhou Yi nodded unconsciously, as if he understood the mystery. But then he asked: "Military advisor, I walked in and out of Shu on a mountain road, what if Liu Bang also led the army out of the mountain road?" “
Regarding Zhou Yi's worries, Fan Zeng seemed unimpressed. "The mountain roads are rough, more difficult than the boardwalks, and the horses can't cross them at all. Without cavalry and carriages transporting grain and grass, it would be difficult for Liu Bang to display even if he had great skills! What's more, at the exit of the mountain road, I have already let Sima Xin of Sanqin garrison, if Liu Bang rashly sends troops, he will only get into the pocket I prepared! “
After listening to what Fan Zeng said, Zhou Yi no longer had doubts.
Seeing that the other party was relieved, Fan Zeng whispered to him: "You are also tired." Go back and rest early. “
Hearing that Fan Zengran was resting with him, Zhou Yi hurriedly saluted and wanted to leave. But before he could take a few steps, he suddenly turned around and asked timidly: "Strategist, the villain has something I want to ask, Qingmin her...... She really ......."
Before Zhou Yi finished asking, Fan Zeng sighed lightly and said, "Zhou Yi, is it possible that you have never given up on Qingmin?" For the two of you, the old man can be said to be carefully cultivated. I also want to see the two of you succeed. It's a pity that she fell for the bewitchment of that ovary and betrayed me. If I don't kill her, it's already a favor. Don't remember it anymore! “
Fan Zeng's words were like a heavy punch, and Zhou Yi was instantly beaten weak. After saluting Fan Zeng again, he left in disappointment......
Not long after Zhou Yi left, a sergeant hurriedly came to Fan Zeng. After the salute, the other party hurriedly reported: "Military advisor, Han Xin, the halberd in the army, has not returned to the camp to report for two days. There is no sign of habitation in his home either! “
Hearing that Han Xin had disappeared, Fan Zeng instantly became nervous. "Didn't I order you to keep an eye on this person? Why did you suddenly disappear?! ”
Seeing that Fan Zeng was a little angry, the military advisor hurriedly replied: "The villain is indeed secretly spying on Han Xin according to the instructions of the military advisor, but this person has a very good personal education with General Zhong Li. Every time he enters and leaves General Zhong's mansion, the villain can only wait outside. The night before Han Shin's disappearance, he was drinking at General Chung's house. I didn't leave the house until midnight. When he returned home, he fell asleep. As a result, he disappeared early the next morning. ”
After listening to the other party's report, Fan Zeng was already furious. Just as he was about to reprimand the other party, another sergeant suddenly entered and made an urgent report.
"Tell the military advisor! General Cao Wuxian has been missing for many days, and his whereabouts are unknown. He was originally a general under the rule of the overlord, so the little one had no right to know his whereabouts. But this morning, a man's body was found on a barren hill outside the city. Judging from the clothes and accessories on his body, this person is General Cao. It's just that...... But his head was gone, as if it had been cut off! ”
Fan Zeng heard that Cao Wuwu had died and his head had been cut. Immediately said to the two sergeants: "Quick!! The whole country was ordered to arrest Han Xin, and he must not be allowed to escape. Cao Wuxian must have died at his hands. He cut off the other party's head, he must have gone to vote for Liu Bang!! You will send someone to fly to inform Sanqin, let them strictly guard the road that can enter and exit Shuzhong, and once they find Han Xin or someone similar to him, they will be killed immediately! Also, immediately send an order to Zhong Liwu, since he is friendly with Han Xin. Then he naturally knew what Han Xin was thinking, and let him personally lead the troops to chase him! ”
The sergeant was extremely angry when he saw Fan Zeng, and hurriedly took the order to go down on an errand. After the sergeants had left, Fan Zeng sighed to himself alone in the hall: "After all, I am old!" I forgot that Zhang Zifang would definitely lobby Han Xin when he came to Pengcheng. Now not only has the "Jiaolong" been released, but also the "Flying Tiger" has been lost! Is this really fate?! ”
Just as Fan Zeng was thinking hard about how to remedy it, suddenly another man in civilian clothes entered and asked to see him. As soon as Fan Zeng saw the other party, he hurriedly beckoned him forward, and then asked urgently: "How about you probe the movements of the Han army?!" Is there any other news from South Korea? ”
After the man in civilian clothes bowed to Fan Zeng, he hurriedly replied: "Qi Qi military division, the Han army has no major movements, and it rushes at sunrise every day and camps at sunset. Occasionally, there are many sergeants who pass by the city of our Chu country, and go inside to buy and eat and drink. There is nothing unusual in the army. And when the villain observed the barracks from a distance, he could occasionally see Zhang Zifang patrolling the camp, but Qingmin didn't follow! As for the whole of Korea, they were all rejoicing at the signing of the alliance with the state of Chu. Nothing out of the ordinary! ”
After listening to the other party's report, Fan Zeng immediately shook off the angry face just now. Then he laughed and said, "What a means! actually stabilized the morale of the army in this way. But after all, he was a little immature, how could it be true without Zhang Zifang accompanied by Qingmin. The more this is the case, the more relieved the old man becomes, but he is afraid that the real Zhang Zifang may not be able to return to South Korea alive! (To be continued.) )
