Chapter 35: The Provisional Alliance

After the messenger took everyone to the welcoming house and turned to leave, Zhang Han sent Zhang Ping out and asked him to settle the accompanying soldiers.

As soon as Zhang Pingfu walked out of the room, Zhang Han suddenly sat down in the room.

He endured it before, so he didn't lose his temper in front of everyone, and at this moment, Zhang Han finally couldn't help but sit down, closing his eyes and adjusting his breathing.

The momentum of the 10,000-person battle array is by no means imaginable for people who have not experienced it, Zhang Han was unprepared just now, and after feeling it at close range, he couldn't help but feel his blood surging, and he was still extremely tight, almost vomiting blood.

Although when the bandits attacked Xianyang City before, Zhang Han had also seen the momentum of the army's rushing and killing, but that time was a small-scale battle after all, and compared to what he saw this time, it was really a small thing.

This time, Zhang Han was definitely more affected than the other stimuli he had received before. Seeing the army's momentum of turning mountains and seas and swallowing mountains and rivers up close is indeed an unprecedented experience, and even at this moment, he still has palpitations.

With today's experience, Zhang Han's mentality has been enriched a lot, and he can't help but sigh in his heart: The Predator Army is really terrifying!

However, while feeling full of emotion, Zhang Han couldn't help but feel dissatisfied with himself.

You must know that he is now a general who has fought in all directions, and he is the God of War of Great Qin, who has experienced a hundred battles, if he has always been so timid, then how can he convince people on the battlefield in the future.

Thinking of this, Zhang Han also secretly made up his mind to improve his psychological endurance as much as possible in the future, and such a thing today must not be allowed to appear for the second time.

Of course, this is also a slow thing and needs to change gradually. Wait until the mentality grows up little by little, in order to become a commanding general, just with Zhang Han's temporary determination, of course, it can't change anything.

After sitting on the seat for a while, Zhang Han felt a little better. Just as he was about to get up and go for a walk, the sound of conversation suddenly came from outside the house.

"General Sima, this is the place where King Xiang greets the guests, please rest here for a while, and we will come to inform you when King Xiang summons you."

Voices came from outside the house, and it seemed that the messenger had led the new princes to the place. Zhang Han was still guessing the identity of the person who came at first, but when the messenger called out the title of General Sima, Zhang Han immediately knew the identity of the other party.

Among those of them who received Xiang Yu's summons and came to Xiang Yu's military camp, there were really not many people with the surname Sima, except for Sima Xin, it was difficult for Zhang Han to think of anyone.

It's really not that the enemies don't get together, but I didn't expect that I would meet Sima Xin here.

Speaking of which, the relationship between himself and Sima Xin was not very good, coupled with the recent secret fighting, the relationship has deteriorated to the extreme, and the two naturally avoided it if they could.

However, Zhang Han didn't expect that this was too coincidental, and he happened to meet here. Presumably, Sima Xin would be very surprised to learn that he was here again.

Knowing the identity of the comer, Zhang Han also dispelled the idea of going out. I didn't have anything to say when I saw Sima Xin, it was just embarrassing, so it was better to hide and disappear.

Just when Zhang Han made up his mind not to go out, a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in his mind, and an unprecedented idea came to mind.

I had always wanted to go with the flow and obey Xiang Yu's separation, but if Xiang Yu assigned Hanzhong Land to Liu Bang as he knew, it would be a great weakening for himself.

If you can gather Sanqin and oppose this proposal, will it be able to make Xiang Yu make changes?

Thinking of this, Zhang Han showed a look of surprise on his face, if this matter can be done, it can cut off a lot of trouble for him.

However, he still has to get Sima Xin's assistance in this matter, and only by reaching an agreement with Sima Xin in advance can he ensure a greater chance of winning.

Outside the house, after the messenger took Sima Xin to the resting place, he turned and left. Sima Xinxiang looked around, and was about to enter the house, when suddenly the door of the opposite door opened.

"General Sima, don't come unharmed."

Hearing this familiar voice, Sima Xin's pupils couldn't help but constrict, and he stopped. After working with Zhang Han for so long, he would never hear this voice wrong, he turned around suddenly, and it turned out to be Zhang Han in front of him.

"You ......"

Zhang Han's sudden appearance was too unexpected, just like an old fox like Sima Xin, he couldn't help but be stunned at the moment, and couldn't speak with his mouth wide open, not to mention the other attendants.

"What? Could it be that General Sima doesn't want to see this king so much? Zhang Han looked at Sima Xin and showed a playful smile.

"Don't dare, the last general Sima Xin will see the king. The last general did not know that the king had come so early, and he could not come to meet him, and asked the king to forgive him. ”

Sima Xin was still an old fritter after all, and he reacted in a moment and bowed to Zhang Han.

Sima Xin is a general, and he can be regarded as Zhang Han's direct subordinate, and he knows very well in his heart that although he and Zhang Han have a lot of festivals in secret, but on the bright side, the number of courtesies should not be less at all.

"No need to be polite, General Sima, please get up."

Sima Xin was so respectful, Zhang Han naturally couldn't find any fault, but Zhang Han didn't want to find fault, he wanted to discuss this important matter with Sima Xin.

"Since entering Xianyang, the two of us haven't seen each other for a long time, we happened to meet today, I have something important to discuss with the general, I wonder if General Sima can appreciate his face?" Zhang Han seemed to have no intention, but what he said surprised everyone.

Hearing Zhang Han's invitation, Sima Xin's eyes widened in disbelief, and an absurd thought couldn't help but appear in his mind - could it be that Zhang Han was going to poison himself here?

In fact, it is no wonder that he was so surprised, after the trade struggle some time ago, even ordinary people can see the conflict between the two sides. At this moment, Zhang Han suddenly made such an unbelievable proposal, and it was strange that Sima Xin was not suspicious.

But then Sima Xin shook his head again and vetoed his idea, after all, this is Xiang Yu's territory, no matter how bold Zhang Han is, he doesn't dare to do it to himself here. But he still couldn't think of what kind of medicine Zhang Han was selling in the gourd.

"The king summons, how dare the last general push the stop, please let the king call the shots."

Since he couldn't figure it out, Sima Xin didn't think about it anymore, so he simply agreed.

Sima Xin was so open-minded, but it was beyond Zhang Han's expectations, seeing Sima Xin like this, he stopped talking nonsense, turned around and returned to his room, and Sima Xin also walked in.

"If there is anything, please explain it to the king." Sima Xin came to the house, but refused to sit down, but stood in the middle of the room and asked coldly.

He knew what kind of person Zhang Han was, and now he suddenly called himself in unconventionally, so naturally there was something important.

"We don't talk darkly, what I discussed with you is nothing more than this separation. You don't have to suspect that I have any malicious intentions, what I am going to say will be beneficial to the three of us Qin generals. ”

"I want to hear about it." Hearing Zhang Han mention this separation, Sima Xin's originally gloomy eyes couldn't help but light up.

"In the past few days, King Xiang's close ministers have released a lot of news. King Xiang wanted to reneg on the original agreement and seal Pei Gong to Shu, and this Qin land was divided into a few Qin generals for us, you must have heard about it. ”

Sima Xin listened to Zhang Han's words quietly, nodded silently, and there was not the slightest emotional fluctuation on his face. It seems that he already knows all this that Zhang Han said.

"But according to the latest information I have received, Pei Gong has already bribed Xiang Bo and asked him to persuade King Xiang to seal Hanzhong Land to him." After Zhang Han finished saying the news, he stopped and looked at Sima Xin's expression.

Sima Xin frowned slightly, and his gaze at Zhang Han became unpredictable, he thought for a moment and asked softly, "Then I don't know what the king is going to do?" ”

Zhang Han saw his expression, he knew that his plan was playful, he didn't rush to answer, but looked at Sima Xin and smiled: "Do you think it is unfair for King Xiang to violate the agreement and deprive Pei Gong Qin of the fiefdom?" ”

Sima Xin looked at Zhang Han strangely and sneered, "Heh, fair? Which of the current princes is not on their own? If Pei Gong sat in the position of King Xiang, he might be even more out of line. Everyone is an ordinary person, and they are not good people, so no one should say anyone. ”

"Good! I'll just wait for your words. What I want you to do is very simple, that is, to join me in opposing the division of Hanzhong. Zhang Han stood up suddenly, his eyes shining with a terrifying light, "I mean very clearly, no matter what others do, our own interests must not be infringed upon." From Shangjun in the north to Hanzhong in the south, this is the territory of the three of us Qin Laoren, and we must not allow others to get involved! ”

Sima Xin looked at the energetic Zhang Han in front of him, and suddenly he was in a trance, as if he had returned to the time when he fought the world. The Zhang Han in front of him was vaguely the young Qin Shaofu at the beginning, and at this moment, an indescribable emotion surged in his heart.

"The last will obey! If the king took the lead in standing up against Liu Bang's proposal, Sima Xin would definitely follow. Sima Xin bowed deeply with his fists and agreed to Zhang Han's request.

"Okay, then this matter is decided, but you have to remember that if I am the only one who stands up at that time, then it is very likely that Liu Bang will not be able to refute it, and you don't want to offend Liu Bang, but because of a small loss, Hanzhong will fall."

After all, Sima Xin still had a holiday with himself, and Zhang Han didn't want the other party to stab him in the back, so he also told him at this moment.

"The king can rest assured, the last general will naturally know the severity. Even if it's for your own sake, you should stand up and oppose it. ”

Sima Xin naturally knew what Zhang Han was worried about, he smiled slightly, and made a promise to Zhang Han.
