Chapter 342: Land for Peace

The British rose and fell.

Unlike other weak princes, Yingbu's bravery and fame gave him a high reputation among the heroes of the Kanto region, and his reputation as "butcher and murderer" was rumored to make children stop crying.

Once upon a time, the names Xiang Yu and Yingbu were often linked, but now, just like Qin and Zhao, they fought to the death.

"Yingbu is dead, died at the hands of Xiang Yu!" This news is too shocking, for people who don't know the grievances between Dongchu and Xichu, Xiang Yu is doing this, it is simply the relatives and enemies who are happy. At the same time, this cruel fact also frightened those who once praised Xiang Yu as the king of the princes.

In the past, they always thought that only the Qin State regarded them as enemies, and the princes would ally and attack Qin together, and under such a banner of righteousness, the contradictions between the princes were also covered up. But in the past two years, the princes of the Kanto region have survived less and less in the mutual attacks one after another.

Beam.

With the improvement of relations between Qin and Chu, this ruined city located at the junction of the two countries was once again full of vitality, and the caravans that came and went on the river, as well as those neutrals who did not want to vote for either Qin or Chu, their arrival made Daliang regain a bit of the style of the former Wei capital.

To be able to revitalize the beam, it should be said that Wei Bao's contribution is not small, and he also had some complacent thoughts before, but after hearing that Yingbu was dead, Wei Bao suddenly woke up.

Where the nest is dangerous, there are no eggs.

Wei Bao, who was immersed in his own small kingdom, suddenly looked up and found that in the Central Plains region of the Northland, he had become one of the two old princes who were still alive, and the remaining other king of Changsha, Wu Rui, was far away in the south of the river, and he couldn't support each other.

Is this God's favor, or is God going to see his jokes? The panicked Wei Bao urgently summoned his generals and ministers to discuss the next way out. Unlike a thief from a humble background like Yingbu, his status as a descendant of the Wei Bao royal family also attracted him to some famous figures.

In terms of ministers, the former Han King Liu Bang's former old friend, Pei County native Yongya chose to defect to Wei Bao after a number of employers, and there is also a familiar person's descendants for the first time on the historical point platform, the former Changshan King Zhang Er finally died of illness in Daliang after being exiled all the way.

After the death of his father, Zhang Ao, the master of Liu Bang in history, and the husband of Princess Lu Yuan. The famous beautiful man in the early Han Dynasty defected to Wei Bao nearby, which was also a helpless move, and now it is the Qin and Chu families that dominate, and these two families have no good impression of Zhang Er, an outdated prince.

In terms of military generals, after Puhou Chen Wu was killed by Liu Bang, the Wei army consisted of Cai Yin and Zhang Shuo, two Wei people, and Cai and Zhang's abilities could not be compared with Chen Wu, but they were loyal.

"The King. This book killed Yingbu, and it is very likely that we will be stabbed next, and according to the opinion of the general, it is better to prepare as soon as possible. simply voted for the Qin State. Cai Yin, who made this suggestion, was the commander of the 500 Wei army sent to Yandi at that time, and after seeing the strength of the Qin army, Cai Yin completely lost his arrogant look.

"Never, my lord. This Cai Yin was in vain as the general of the army, but he was cowardly before fighting, and only cared about drumming that the king would give up the position of prince. The minister implored the king to seize the military power of this subordinate and pay respect. Hearing Cai Yin's strong admonition, Zhang Ao, who had always been tough on Qin State, hurriedly stepped forward and asked loudly.

"Zhang Ao, what kind of thing are you, you also want to be presumptuous in my Great Wei." Cai Yin was furious, as an old man who followed Wei Bao to fight several times, Cai Yin's loyalty had already been proven by the facts, but he couldn't imagine that he would be slandered by juniors like Zhang Ao today.

"Okay, don't quarrel, vote for Qin or not, this king has his own opinions, you guys will talk about it first, after Xiang Ji takes Jiangdong, what will he do, and whether it is possible to attack my Great Wei." Wei Bao waved his hand impatiently and asked a few of his subordinates below.

According to Wei Bao's thoughts, such an independent small kingdom is the most comfortable now.

Rather be the head of the chicken, not the queen of the cow.

In Daliang, he Wei Bao is the sky, he is the king, it can be said that there is no other, even if the territory is smaller, the army is weaker, but as long as he doesn't make trouble, the two big countries of Qin and Chu generally don't have to pay attention to him, this is because the location of the last Chenggao Alliance is in the territory of Wei.

Having such a buffer zone was very necessary for Qin and Chu, and now, this delicate balance was very likely to be broken by Xiang Ji.

A person who has regained his courage and invincibility on the battlefield is terrifying. Comparatively speaking, Wei Bao was more willing to trust the Wuhou of Qin in the west, who was slowly advancing but pressing step by step, in fact, the results of the two methods of being pushed off the cliff at once and boiling the frog in warm water were the same, but the process and feelings were completely different.

"Great King, the minister is willing to go to Pengcheng immediately to inquire about the news of the Chu State." Zhang Ao was young and vigorous in the end, and after Wei Bao expressed his concern, he asked for an order.

In stark contrast to Zhang Ao's passion, Xiang Yongya, Cai Yin, and Zhang Shuo were silent one by one, and they seemed to be very happy for Zhang Ao to take on this glorious task.

"In this way, Zhang Qing will work hard." Wei Bao paused, and seeing that there was still no response, he had to say to Zhang Ao.

When Zhang Ao held his head high and went down with the smile of the victor, Yongya and the others began to come to life, and they approached Wei Bao one after another and whispered.

"The king, this nationality is cold by nature, and brave and brave, in the past, when Fan Zeng was there, he could still hear a thing or two, and now Xiang Tuo, the prime minister of Chu, will only condone him, when he is frustrated, Xiang Ji may take into account the feelings of the people in the world, and when it comes to being proud, I am afraid that no one in this Chu country can persuade him-." Yongya tugged his beard under his chin and said as he nodded.

Eight years have passed since the strife of the world.

The old brother back then, there are not many people who are still alive to witness this history, Yongya is also one of them, he once defected to Xiang Liang, and he has worked with Xiang Yu, and he can be regarded as an acquaintance who knows himself and his opponent.

"Yongqing, according to what you say, is it really possible for that book to attack my Great Wei?" Wei Bao asked urgently.

"King, although there are only four or five cities in my Wei State now, such as Daliang, Chenggao, and Pingyi, compared to the war-torn counties of Chu State, Wei Land is like a piece of fat on the side of the mouth, as long as you stretch out your hand a little, you can grab it in your arms, with Xiang Ji and Xiang Tuo's temperament, will they let us go? Obviously not, the reason why they haven't made a move is simply because we are not fat enough, not rich enough. Yongya said helplessly.

"What about that?" Wei Bao listened to Yongya's analysis, and he was also upset for a while, he actually understood in his heart that the taste of survival in the cracks was not pleasant, it was like hanging a sharp sword on his head at any time, and he didn't know when it would fall.

"King, the minister has a discussion, I don't know if I should talk about it or not?" Yongya groaned slightly, and leaned closer to say.

"If you have an idea, this king will never blame?" Wei Bao frowned and said.

"King, the city under the jurisdiction of my Great Wei, in addition to the cities of Daliang and Chenggao that are sandwiched between Qin and Chu, there is also the old capital Pingyi, which belongs to Hedong County, and is surrounded by the territory of Qin, if the king is willing, we can use Daliang and Chenggao in exchange for the safety of Pingyi, and my subordinates believe that Li Yuan will agree to this condition, after all, being able to take several cities in Wei without bloodshed is also a good thing for Qin." Nga Tooth Tract.

Land for peace.

Yongya is an ancient man more than 2,000 years ago, so he naturally did not know that there was a country called Palestine in the later generations, and he also exchanged the land for the hope of peaceful nation-building.

Wei Bao was silent.

Give up the homeland that you have managed to keep, give up the enjoyment of the past few years, and then run to another remote place to start a new life.

It's not easy.

But Yongya is right, in the face of the two big countries of Qin and Chu, how long can the little Wei State last for this kind of dancing on eggs?

Maybe it's a few months later, maybe it's tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, anytime and anywhere, the Chu army and the Qin army will come like an overwhelming flood, and with only more than 3,000 Wei soldiers, and then look at Cai Yin and Zhang Shuo's panicked appearances, Wei Bao really doesn't have the confidence and courage to stay in Daliang anymore.

"Yongqing, you took my name thorn and went to Luoyang, I heard that the Shenwu Marquis of Qin State is returning from Nanjun, and it is very likely that he will pass through there, and when the time comes, you will judge the situation and go to find out Li Yuan's tone." Wei Bao sighed and said with difficulty word by word.

Wei Bao has always supported his reluctance to bow to the Qin State, just because he is different from others, he is the royal family of the Wei State, thinking that back then, when the anti-Qin riots, his brother Wei Zhi was killed by the Qin general Zhang Han, and now, it is really unbearable to let him surrender to the Qin State.

But what if you don't bow your head? In front of the strong, everything is a floating cloud. Is it really until the Chu army kills, the newly married concubine becomes the plaything of the Chu people, and the wealth that has been earned with great difficulty is burned. If it is really as Yongya said, it can be exchanged for the safety of Pingyi with Daliang and Chenggao, and the result is not bad after careful calculation.

Wei Bao swayed left and right in the middle of his wandering, and the judgment of which one of Zhang Ao and Yongya was correct can only be proved by time, compared to Wei Bao, Peng Yue, who has been steadily regarded as the leader of the robbers in Juyeze, is much more decisive.

Peng Yue.

In history there is the title of guerrilla king. This is mainly due to the fact that he repeatedly led troops to attack and harass the hinterland of Chu during the Chu-Han War, so that Xiang Yu has not been able to do his best to deal with Liu Bang.

And now, Peng Yue, who has always been in a semi-independent state, can't hold it anymore, seeing one after another little guys who are younger than him and younger than him follow Li Yuan to become an official and become a knight, but he has lost the opportunity because of his own selfishness, this kind of torture has made Peng Yue, who is nearly forty years old, fed up.

With more than 6,000 robbers from Ju Yeze, he officially annexed to the Qin State, which was a decision made by Peng Yue after some hard thinking. (To be continued......)
