Chapter Ninety-Six: The Temptation Trap
Lam tin.
Belonging to Neishi County, the twenty-seventh year of the first emperor, the Qin State built Chi Road in 36 counties in the country, one of which is a southeast road, that is, from Xianyang, through Lantian, through Wuguan, to Xiangyang.
After Liu Jun occupied Lantian, Liu Bang, Marquis of Wu'an, moved his residence to the Dinghu Palace, the palace of the first emperor in Lantian, which covers a vast area and was built on a grand scale, which is the place where the monarch of Qin State took refuge in the summer before the Afang Palace, and in front of the palace, there is also a royal shame garden, which is the place of royal hunting.
Compared with the gray face he had in Xingyang a few months ago, Liu Bang was full of energy, and his gray hair was combed neatly, and he had returned to the gentlemanly style of a humble elder in the past.
An army of 100,000 left Hanzhong.
Liu Bang can now be described as a strong soldier, in Dinghu Palace, Xiao He, Cao Shen, Zhou Bo and other old Peixian troops are all there, and Zhang Liang, Wang Ling and other new advisers and generals are also among them. With Cao Shen, Zhou Bo and other brave generals in battle, and Zhang Liang's strategy, Liu Jun's journey can be described as a breakthrough.
"The ovary, Xianyang has already been emptied by Li Yuan's thief, I'm afraid there won't be anything left? If we go, we will have a reputation at best. Liu Bang said lightly.
Liu Bang's bloody battle with Li Yuan in Sanchuan County can be regarded as understanding Li Yuan's style, this thief is a robber, and if he starts first, it is estimated that there will not be many things left.
"Pei Gong, even if it's a false name, it's enough. Among the princes, only Pei Gong led an army alone, and the rest were lackeys of the Xiang family, so there was no need to worry. Zhang Liang said with a smile.
The general trend of the world, Zhang Liang is confident.
The Qin State has fallen apart, and the next battle for hegemony is to tear apart the princes of the anti-Qin Dynasty, Xiang Yu broke the prestige of the main force of the Qin State, and ruled the princes of all walks of life, and the prestige was unique for a while; And what Liu Bang has to do now is to occupy Xianyang City before Xiang Yu, and show a message to the people of the world: The Qin State was ended by Liu Bang, not Xiang Yu.
It's just that Liu Bang, who was born as a pavilion chief, has a disadvantage compared with the Xiangzhi of Jiangmen Huzi, and what Zhang Liang has to do is to turn the disadvantage into a victory.
Fame, even if it is a false name, is a resource in this era of underdeveloped information. As long as Liu Bang's reputation spreads all over the world, then many people who are not from the family will come to Liu Bang one after another, and with such a mechanism for gathering talents, Liu Bang is like a powerful hematopoietic machine.
"The ovary is very worried, but I am really unwilling to think that this time it is cheaper than Li Thief." Liu Bang sighed hatefully, thinking that Li Yuan fled back to Guanzhong in order to retreat and defend himself, so with his 100,000 army, he could avenge Xingyang's revenge, but now it seems that he can't take care of it for the time being.
"Pei Gong, Li thief soldiers are less than 30,000, there will be only a few members, this time the guard is not successful, and has to retreat, it can be seen that its strength is limited, and there is no ambition, compared with the tiger of Xiang Ji, only a dog guarding the household, what a way! A certain wish led the army to take the head of the Li thief and cheered up the generals! Without waiting for Liu Bang to answer, one of the generals who sat down was already shouting loudly.
Liu Bang looked at it, but it was Qi Gill, the general of the Qin State who had just surrendered, and Qi Gill probably saw that Cao Shen and the others showed a dignified look when they talked about Li Yuan, so they couldn't wait to step forward and admonish.
Qi Gill is over half a hundred years old, and he is the general of the Qin State guarding Hanzhong, in his opinion, Li Yuan is a little-known junior, who only relies on temporary luck to achieve things, and his ability is not good.
Cao Shen and Zhou Bo heard the sarcasm in Qi Gill's words, and their faces changed, who is Li Yuan, and it is natural for several of them to have suffered clearly, don't say that there is only one Qi Gill, even if all of them go up, they can't take Li Yuan for a while?
Liu Bang glanced at Qi Gill, and said in silence: "Since Gong Qi has this intention, it is better to lead a team of men and horses to take Chen Cang." The rest of the generals will go to Xianyang with my troops. ”
"No!" Cao Shen and Zhou Bo received the order according to their words, and strode out one by one, without looking at the triumphant Qi Gill on the side.
After Liu Bang finished his order, he got up and walked towards the direction of the palace, where there were still beautiful girls in the palace waiting for him, although it was only the inheritance of the first emperor, but the freshness was really not bad.
Qi Gill, just a general.
The land of Yongqi, for the Central Plains, is a wild place in the west, and only the Qin people will regard it as a sacred place. As a Chu person, Liu Bang really cares about the Central Plains.
Use Qi Gill to test Li Yuan's strength, if he can win, it will naturally be the best; If it is defeated, then there is also a saying about Xiang Yu at that time.
It's not that they don't attack, but that the Qin army of Li Thief is extremely brave, and the elite of the non-Chu army can't surrender.
――。
April 16 of the first year of Qin III.
Liu Bang's army marched at a speed of 100 miles a day, and the third emperor of Qin, Ying Ziying, was eager to ask Li Yuan of Yongcheng for help, but never received a response.
At this time, Yingzi Ying Fang Shi woke up from the emperor's dream.
In desperation, Ying Ziying had to tie himself with a rope, and brought the royal jade seal and military talismans to Liu Bangjun to surrender in person. At this point, the state of Qin ceased to exist as a unified empire.
When Li Yuan left, he took away the wealth and grain of the Qin treasury, but he did not take away all the luxuries of Xianyang, and the wine shop for the pleasure of the princes was open as usual.
Facing the groups of beauties in Afang Palace, Liu Bang was also confused, more than half a hundred years old, according to the longevity of this era, Liu Bang can be regarded as a long-lived person, he has struggled for several years, and finally has such an opportunity to enjoy, how can he let it go.
In the face of enjoying a comfortable life, people sometimes lose themselves.
Liu Bang's subordinates are not all people who can't see danger, but how to persuade has become a problem.
If Fan Hao does not die, with his identity as a brother-in-law, he is the most suitable object; It's a pity that Fan Xu died in the Battle of Daliang, which makes it difficult to persuade anyone.
Although Zhang Liang is deeply valued by Liu Bang, after all, he has not long defected, and there are some things to say, whether Liu Bang can listen to it, whether there will be mustard, Zhang Liang also has concerns.
As for Xiao He, Cao Shen and others, former brothers, now with the improvement of Liu Bang's status, the relationship between the two sides has become a subordinate relationship between subordinates and lords, if they are forcibly advised, Xiao He is not sure.
Just when Zhang Liang, Xiao He and others hesitated, time passed day by day, Liu Jun's soldiers wantonly looted in Xianyang City, and many generals couldn't help but say that they seized property, women and children, which made the people of Guanzhong have a plummeting perception of Liu Bang. By the time Zhang Liang and the others couldn't bear it, it was too late.
Facing the indifferent and hostile eyes of the people of Xianyang, Liu Bang began to react that Xianyang was a temptation trap left by Li Yuan. Sadly, he, Liu Bang, jumped off without a defense.
