In September of the first year of the second year, Huiji, Wucheng.

The county guard Yin Tong has been like an ant on a hot pot for the past few days, fidgeting in the house, and where the people are slightly angry with him, it will be a death beating. In less than ten days, four subordinates and maids in the county guard's mansion were beaten and broke their muscles and bones.

In fact, Yin Tong was impatient, and he was very impatient waiting for the news from the Central Plains. A month and a half ago, he received startling news: some people had rebelled, rebelled in the Central Plains.

At first, he scoffed at the rebels, calling them ants with contempt, not believing that they could overthrow the seemingly powerful Qin Empire. But the news that came immediately greatly surprised him, the seemingly powerful Qin army was defeated again and again, and was beaten without the power to fight back. In contrast, the rebel army swelled rapidly, from 900 men to hundreds of thousands. The heroes of the world and the relics of the six countries also responded, and they each rose up against Qin.

Yin Tong's attitude towards the rebel army also changed from contempt to fear.

Can he not be afraid? If someone is against Qin, then who is the biggest leader of the Qin State in the entire Huiji territory? That was undoubtedly his Yin Tong.

So he thought that it would be better for him to take the lead in opposing Qin first, so that he could change from the county guard of Qin to the leader of the rebel army, and maybe he would be lucky enough to be a king.

Although he intended to oppose Qin, Yin Tong was still hesitant, and he was still worried in his heart. So he sent his cronies to the Central Plains to inquire about the news. If the rebel army wins and enters Guanzhong, then he will not hesitate to raise the banner against Qin. If the Qin army succeeds in counterattacking, then he Yin Tong is naturally a model county guard of Great Qin to defend the territory and protect the territory.

After anxiously waiting for more than 20 days, Yin Tong finally waited for the return of his cronies, and the 200,000 troops of the rebel army Zhou Wen had captured Hangu Pass and were attacking it. Wu Guang's 200,000-strong army also surrounded Xingyang, and Wu Chen, Zhou Shi, Tian Dan and others had already captured Zhaodi, Wei and Qi, and Daqin saw that it would not work.

After getting the news, Yin Tong made up his mind and strengthened his heart to raise troops against Qin. He retracted the entire county of soldiers and horses to Wucheng, allowing his cronies to control the various armies, and at the same time Wucheng imposed a curfew to prohibit gatherings of more than ten people.

He also summoned several confidants and civil officials to discuss when to raise the matter in the Taishou Mansion. Seeing that the Lord Bo Fan Zeng had a hesitant look on his face, Yin Tong asked curiously; "Fan Gong, the tyrannical Qin has gone against the grain, and the world has already complained, and now I want to comply with the mandate of heaven and respond to Zhang Chu against Qin, don't you think it's wrong?"

Fan Zeng arched his hand and saluted back: "The world has been suffering for a long time, if you want to do something, then it would be better." It's just that my lord, you have been guarding the county of Qin for a long time, and I am afraid that the people will have many doubts if you take the initiative to cause trouble, so it is better to find someone with prestige to assist. ”

Yin Tong has always admired Fan Zeng, nodded when he heard this, and said, "Then I don't know who Fan Gong thinks is suitable?" ”

Fan Zeng smiled slightly and said, "My lord, why are you in such a hurry, you have even forgotten the sages around you." ”

Yin Tong was stunned for a moment, then reacted, patted his head and smiled; "Haha, look at my memory, Fan Gong is talking about Xiang Liang. That's right, he does have a very high prestige in Wuzhong. ”

"Come on, go and invite Xiang Liang to come."

The distance between Taishou Mansion and Xiang Mansion was not too far, and in less than two moments, Xiang Liang had already arrived.

When Yin Tong saw Xiang Liang coming, he went up and grabbed his hand, and said with a smile: "There is Lao Xianggong." ”

Xiang Liang hurriedly arched his hand and said, "Your Excellency is polite." ”

"I don't know what the important thing is for the adults to summon Xiang here?"

Xiang Liang turned around and waved back, leaving Fan Zeng and a few other confidants and civil officials, and then lowered his voice and said: "I heard that all the west of the river have rebelled, and this is the time when God is going to destroy the Qin State." I've heard people say that the first is to control the people, and then the people are to be controlled, so I plan to raise an army against Qin, what does Xiang Gong think? ”

Xiang Liang swept his eyes slightly, and saw that although there were only a few people in the hall, when he just entered the Taishou Mansion, he saw hundreds of guards on duty outside the hall. Such an arrangement can only show that Yin Tong is observing words and feelings, if Xiang Liang agrees to follow him, the two are close comrades-in-arms who are like brothers. If Xiang Liang hesitated, I was afraid that the knife and axe men outside the tent would rush up to send him on his way.

Xiang Liang nodded solemnly and promised; "Xiang Liang is willing to serve the adults and serve the dogs and horses."

Yin Tong was overjoyed and laughed; "Xiang Gongyan is serious, the two of us will be brothers in the future, I am the lord, you are the commander, for me to conquer the city and open up the territory, this is a good country, how about I divide two points and a spoon!"

Xiang Liang pretended to be moved, and then proposed: "My nephew Xiang Yu is familiar with the art of war, excellent martial arts, although he is young, but he is more suitable to be a general, it is better to summon him to respond to the adult's uprising." ”

Xiang Yu's reputation for bravery, Yin Tong, had also heard of it a little, and he was very interested in Xiang Liang's proposal, and said with a smile; "It's better, then Xiang Gong will ask to send his nephew over."

Xiang Liang was secretly happy in his heart, so he said goodbye and left, and when he went out, he met Xiang Yu, who was standing outside the mansion with a sword and waiting, and secretly glanced at him. Xiang Yu understood, so he followed Xiang Liang back to the conference hall in stride.

Yin Tong saw Xiang Liang's uncle and nephew coming from a distance, and saw that Xiang Yu was seven feet tall, with a tiger's back and a bear's waist, a swallow's jaw and a tiger's head, and his appearance was different from ordinary people. Yin Tong couldn't help but secretly cheer when he saw it, greeted him with a smile, and said, "Is this Xiang Xian's nephew?" Sure enough, the power of life is extraordinary. ”

Xiang Yu squinted at Yin Tong and didn't reply, his attitude was extremely arrogant. Seeing that Xiang Yu was so arrogant, Yin Tong couldn't help but show displeasure, and thought of using the two uncles and nephews, so he forcibly suppressed his anger, stretched out his hand and said with a smile: "Brother Xiang and the virtuous nephew, please take a seat, and we will discuss the anti-Qin matter together." ”

Xiang Yu didn't buy his account at all, but snorted coldly, looked at Yin Tong and sneered; "What kind of dog are you, how dare you call my uncle a brother. You must know that my uncle is the son of Xiang Yan, the general of the Chu State. ”

"You ......." Yin Tong was startled, looked at Xiang Liang fiercely, and said in a trembling voice; Brother Xiang, what do you mean by this? ”

Xiang Yu suddenly looked up to the sky and laughed; "You idiot, my uncle and nephew are dignified Xiang Yan, and you want to take us as eagle dogs, this is extremely arrogant, and we should be killed."

"As the county guard of the Qin State, I usually squeeze the blood and sweat of my Chu people, but now I want to fish in troubled waters and lead the Chu people to oppose your master, this is disloyal and unjust, and it should be killed."

"I want to start an incident, but I hesitated, and actually asked my Xiang Yu to come to you with a weapon, this is stupid and should be killed. With these three articles, how can you survive? ”

Yin Tong saw that Xiang Yu had already pulled out his sword, he was so frightened that he hurriedly turned around and ran, shouting 'help' in his mouth, but it was too late. Xiang Yu swung down with a sword, splitting Yin Tong in half from top to bottom, and the blood arrow suddenly spewed out and splashed all over the place. Xiang Liang also jumped up, cut off Yin Tong's head, held it in his hand, opened his eyes angrily, and looked at the civil officials viciously and said: "Yin Tong is dead, what are your plans?" ”

These civil officials are all elegant and elegant people, where have they seen such a bloody scene, they were suddenly stunned with fright, their bodies were like chaff, and they all looked at Xiang Liang tremblingly, not daring to speak. Only Fan Zeng was still sitting there drinking tea calmly, looking as usual.

At this time, there was an uproar outside the court, and Yin Tong's personal soldiers rushed in one after another, and when they saw that the lord was killed, they instinctively waved their weapons and surrounded them.

Xiang Yu laughed and said to everyone; "Princes, rest for a while, this is a small night, and Yu can go." After speaking, he drew his sword and strode up to kill.

Xiang Yu kills people, how can he use two tricks. Before he could do so, the guards who rushed in front were killed by Xiang Yu, and the guards behind saw that Xiang Yu was so brave, how could he dare to move forward, so they scattered in a hurry. Xiang Yu looked back at everyone in the hall and said, "What do you think?" ”

Looking at Yin Tong's bloody head in the hall, and looking at Xiang Yu, who was covered in blood and majestic, everyone couldn't tell the situation, and they all bowed to Xiang Liang and said: "I am willing to serve Xiang Gong as the county guard of Huiji." ”

Fan Zeng stood up, clapped his hands a few times, stretched out his hand and pointed to Yin Tong's seat and smiled, "Brother Xiang, please take a seat." ”

Xiang Liang did not shirk, strode on, and sat down unceremoniously.

"Yu'er, beat the drums, gather the three armies."

"Yes, uncle."

After hearing the drum of the call, the soldiers in Wuzhong City gathered in a group to gather in the school training ground in front of the Taishou Mansion, looking at the Yin Tong head hanging high on the big platform, and Xiang Yu who was full of murderous aura on the stage, where would they not know what happened. Ji Bu and Zhong Liwei, the leaders of the team, took the opportunity to shout: "I am willing to support Xiang Gong and resist the tyrannical Qin." ”

Yin Tong was already unpopular in Huiji, Xiang Liang was highly respected, and Xiang Yu's bravery was even more famous.

Xiang Liang took the seat of the county guard without much effort, sent people to collect the county, and recruited troops with great fanfare. There were 8,000 elite soldiers, commanded by Xiang Yu, with Ji Bu, Zhong Liwei, Long Ji, Yu Ziqi, Yingbu, and Hengchu as captains. He also captured Zhangjun, which was also Jiangdong, and immediately moved north after stabilizing the rear, responding to the princes to attack Qin.

******

The chaos in the Central Plains also affected the neighboring Pei County, and the common people, who had long been fed up with the tyranny of the Qin Dynasty, waited eagerly and craned their necks for the arrival of the rebel army. Unexpectedly, Ge Ying's southward army only killed a few counties in the northern part of Surabaya County, and was hastily recalled by Chen Sheng.

This made Chen Xianling of Pei County breathe a sigh of relief, but he was still worried. Jiangbei was all opposed, only a few small counties like Peixian were still wavering, and the princes of the rebel army were busy attacking the territory to recruit troops, and small counties like Peixian were temporarily ignored.

Chen Xianling was worried all day long, and he couldn't come up with a good idea, so he had to summon Xiao He and Cao Shen to listen to their opinions.

Xiao He is a meritorious cao in Pei County, talented and prestigious, so the county commander always consults him when he encounters hesitation. Xiao He pondered for a moment and asked, "My lord, do you think that if you rise up against Qin, will the people in the city believe you?" ”

Chen Xianling is also a smart person, after listening to Xiao He's words, he shook his head with a wry smile: "I have no virtue or merit, but I have helped Qin Guo do a lot of things that offend people, if I get into trouble, I'm afraid no one will obey it." ”

"What do you mean?"

Chen Xianling showed hesitation on his face, and hesitated for a long time before sighing: "How about maintaining the status quo?" ”

This time it was Cao Shen's turn to shake his head, and he said unceremoniously: "Lord Chen, you can't help but deceive yourself with this kind of thinking, now the whole world is in chaos, like a spark ignited under dry firewood, how can I Pei County keep one side quiet?" Now it's just that the princes don't have time to take care of a small county like us, once they get out, they will definitely attack us, what will we use to resist at that time? ”

Chen Xianling was silent for a long time before he said with a wry smile: "What do you two think?" ”

Xiao He offered a strategy: "You are an official of the Qin Dynasty, I am afraid that it will be difficult for the people of Pei County to listen to your words, and if you want to do great things, you must invite the fugitive heroes back." In this way, Pei County can be as safe as Mount Tai. ”

Chen Xianling only felt that his eyes lit up, and it made sense to think about it, so he hurriedly asked, "Then who does Xiao Gong think he invites back?" ”

Liu Ji of Mangdang Mountain was loyal and prestigious, and he was also known as the son of the Red Emperor in the countryside, and he was very convinced. Of course, these are all nonsense of fools, and adults can use him to win people's hearts. He has committed a felony by releasing criminals, and if the adults forgive him for his crimes, he will surely be grateful to Dade and do his best to help you. At that time, the adults could rise up against Qin and dominate one side, and they could protect the land and the people when they retreated, and they would not be in vain for the people as county pastors. ”

Chen Xianling hesitated a little, hesitated for a while before saying, "Is it really possible?" ”

"The lower officials are willing to vouch for it with a head."

"Xiaguan Cao Shen is also willing to vouch for it together."

Chen Xianling pondered for a long time before he said: "Okay, let's bother Xiao Gong to invite this Liu Ji back." ”

Liu Bang, who was fighting guerrillas in Mangdang Mountain, received Xiao He's paperwork, was overjoyed, and hurriedly ran down the mountain with hundreds of bitter brothers, and rushed towards Pei County. Unexpectedly, he rushed to the city, and Chen County, who was at the head of the city, saw that Liu Bang was a large number of people, and he couldn't help but worry that he couldn't control Liu Bang and was dominated by him. He hurriedly ordered the gates of the city to be closed, and the soldiers went up to the city walls to defend the city.

Liu Bang was running feverishly towards Pei County, but he couldn't help but be furious, blocking the city gate and pointing at the city head and scolding, all of which were unbearable words.

Chen Xianling was annoyed and angry, so he ordered the soldiers to shoot Liu Bang. Because of his power, the soldiers had to open their bows and arrows, but they all fell in front of Liu Bang, and Liu Bang laughed when he saw it. Chen Xianling grabbed a bow in a hurry and shot Liu Bang himself. After all, he was only a civil official, and his strength was insufficient, and the arrow feather just landed obliquely in front of Liu Bang's feet, which also frightened Liu Bang, and he was still scolding in his mouth, but he didn't dare to get too close.

Chen Xianling thought about it when he returned to the city, and felt that Xiao He and Cao Shen were obviously deliberately tricking themselves, so he ordered someone to arrest Xiao He and Cao Shen, who were eating inside and out, but unexpectedly, Xiao He and the two had already heard the rumor and ran out of the city to Liu Bang overnight.

Early in the morning of the second day, Liu Bang ran to the city again and scolded, and did not order the siege of the city, but just surrounded the city. The people in the city were not in danger, and the city was very lively, so they ran up to the city to see Liu Bang's liveliness.

Liu Bang saw that the city was crowded, so he took the opportunity to let the soldiers shout in unison: "The world has been suffering for a long time, and the princes have risen together, and they want to slaughter Peicheng, and only by opening the city can Peicheng be protected." ”

As soon as the people at the head of the city heard Liu Bang's inciting words, they immediately became noisy, and the general who defended the city, Xiahou Ying, took the opportunity to shout: Kill the county order, protect Peicheng. With a group of soldiers and civilians, he rushed into the county office, hacked Chen County's commander, who was still encouraged, to death, opened the city gate, and set up Liu Bang as the lord of Pei County.

Liu Bang worshipped the Yellow Emperor on the bank of Surabaya and sacrificed to Chiyou. Because it was rumored that he was the son of the Red Emperor, he provoked the banners, the banners were all red, called himself Pei Gong, recruited troops and horses, and watched the Central Plains according to the city.
