Chapter 177: Driving the Tiger and Devouring the Wolf
In the palace, after Wu Han took his seat, he fell into an eerie silence, Xiang Yu and Fan Zeng stared at Wu Han, while the others withdrew their gaze and looked left and right cautiously.
This is true for those who are qualified to sit, let alone those who stand in secret.
No one dared to look directly at Wu Han's edge, only Yu Ji was alone, secretly peeping at him, although it was very secretive, Wu Han still felt it.
The reaction of everyone in the hall, Wu Han's expectations, only Yu Ji was an exception, and even Wu Han was puzzled by her appearance. Of course, he didn't care too much, but looked at Xiang Yu, waiting for him to open his mouth to discuss the matter.
"The siege of the giant deer has been resolved, what do you generals think our army should do next?"
In the end, Xiang Yu glanced at Wu Han, broke the silence, and asked everyone.
As Xiang Yu's voice fell, the generals who were looking left and right immediately discussed, and some people proposed to rest and recuperate first, replenish the troops and recover their vitality, take over the armies of the princes from all walks of life, and the coalition troops entered the pass. Some people suggested that Xianyang should be attacked immediately, after all, King Huai has an appointment, and the one who enters the customs first is the king.
The two groups of people argued endlessly, no one was determined, Wu Han looked indifferently, but did not open his mouth, because he knew that Xiang Yu and Fan Zeng must have already discussed the result, and there was no need for him to talk nonsense.
The reason why there is this meeting is just because of his existence, and it is just a formality.
Just like in the palace of King Huai of Chu, even if King Huai had already decided on the candidate for the general of the Northern Expedition in his heart, he still gathered all the high-level officials of the real power of Chu to discuss together, because of Xiang Yu and Fan Zeng, as the king of Chu Huai, he could not directly issue orders, but needed to play political means to achieve his goals.
Sure enough, when the opinions in the hall were uncertain, Fan Zeng suddenly coughed lightly, and after attracting everyone's attention, he said: "In the battle of the giant deer, Zhang Han was killed, the last pillar of the tyrannical Qin collapsed, and now the obstacles that run in front of our army have disappeared, the gate of Guanzhong is wide open, and our army will march to Xianyang at the fastest speed, ** Tyrannical Qin." ”
After speaking, Fan Zeng looked at Wu Han, and with Fan Zeng's movements, the eyes of everyone in the hall fell on Wu Han again.
"I'm afraid it's too late, don't forget, Liu Bang has now arrived in Nanyang, and he is closer to Guanzhong than our army."
Feeling everyone's gaze, Wu Han hesitated for a moment, and then opened his mouth and muttered, he did not veto Fan Zeng's meaning, but expressed his worries from the side.
"Liu Bang? That old boy also has the ability to attack the pass? ”
As soon as Wu Han's words fell, before Fan Zeng and Xiang Yu could react, Zhong Liwu and the others below took the lead in sneering disdainfully, and their words seemed to resonate with Xiang Yu, and he also looked disapproving.
Xiang Yu and the others proudly looked down on Liu Bang, that was because they defeated the world's famous general Zhang Han and buried 300,000 Qin troops.
"Liu Bang naturally doesn't have that ability, but General Xiang does."
"What does Wu mean by joining the army?" ”
"I don't know if the generals have thought about it, but now General Xiang is powerful in the world, defeating Zhang Han, the general of the Qin State, and destroying 300,000 soldiers of the Qin army, which can be described as a great reputation, and no one dares to compete with it."
"But what if Liu Banghu pretends to be a tiger and uses the name of General Xiang to deter the guards of all passes?"
"I don't think he will be subject to any resistance either, after all, Liu Bang is also under the command of King Huai, the army of Chu."
"Once that happens, within three days, Liu Bang will be able to attack Hanzhong and take Xianyang!"
"King Huai has an appointment, the Northern Expedition to the west, no matter which way, the first to enter Hanzhong is the king, if Liu Bang pretends to be the first to attack Hanzhong in the name of General Xiang, I don't know General Xiang, what should I do then?"
Wu Han said lightly to everyone, his voice echoed in the hall, although it was light, it fell on the ears of Xiang Yu and the others, but it was like thunder, deafening.
All the people sitting in the hall, including Xiang Yu, fell silent after Wu Han finished speaking, because they really didn't expect it.
Only Fan Zeng was still sitting firmly on the Diaoyutai, squinting at Wu Han without any surprise.
What Wu Han could think of, how could Fan Zeng not think of it, but because of his identity, he couldn't say it as bluntly as Wu Han, and even if he said it, with Xiang Yu's indecision in this regard, it was estimated that he would ignore it.
Therefore, he simply didn't say it, because he knew very well that Wu Han would definitely mention it.
After all, in the agreement between the two, King Huai and Du Liu Bang must die, so Wu Han has to find a way to leave the army and act alone before he can start, and this threatening remark happens to be the best excuse for Wu Han and Xiang Yu to divide the army.
Wu Han's departure, Fan Zeng is happy to see it, because Wu Han stayed in the Chu army, in Fan Zeng's view, it is a hidden danger, a time bomb that may detonate at any time, like a hungry tiger, the slightest carelessness will choose people to eat.
In the case that it cannot be removed, driving the tiger and devouring the wolf is undoubtedly the best way, so Fan Zeng naturally has to add fuel to the fire:
"I don't know what Mengzhi thinks?"
Fan Zeng broke the silence, Wu Han couldn't help but look at him, and when he saw his calm and relaxed appearance, he couldn't help but curse secretly in his heart: Old fox.
"The threat needs to be strangled in the cradle in advance, as long as someone can go and drag Liu Bang, everything will naturally be solved."
Without any hesitation, Wu Han directly said the words he had already brewed, revealing his intention without leaving a trace.
"It's a good way, but our army is now under-armed, and it is difficult to send people to interfere with Liu Bang...... Could it be that Mengzhi wants to volunteer to help the general solve this trouble? ”
"This is Zheng's duty, and he should do it!"
Wu Han and Fan Zeng sang and harmonized, and the two cooperated tacitly, and before everyone reacted, they quietly settled the matter.
At this time, Xiang Yu suddenly came back to his senses, he wanted to say something, but because of Wu Han and Fan Zeng, he had to swallow the words that came to his mouth.
And Xiang Yu did have this worry in his heart, he was also worried that Liu Bang would be the first to enter the customs, and he didn't know how to deal with it at that time.
Therefore, Xiang Yu also acquiesced to this decision, and he did not veto it, Wu Han and Fan Zeng decided the matter, how dare other Chu generals have objections, they all seconded it.
The decision to march into Xianyang and divide the soldiers, which was related to the fate of Xiang Yu and Liu Bang, and even the entire Julu world, was agreed upon in such an understatement.
A word determines life and death, a thought determines fate, and the power of power is vividly displayed at this moment.
While talking and laughing, the temperament and majesty exuded by Wu Han and Fan Zeng made the experienced Chu generals in the hall shudder.
After the two most important things were settled, the meeting did not dissolve, and then everyone discussed other matters.
It's just that it has nothing to do with Wu Han, although he stayed, he has been watching silently like a spectator, without expressing any opinions.
The reason why Wu Han didn't say goodbye directly was that he wanted to observe Xiang Yu and the others up close, after all, he still needed to stay in the battle of Julu, and it was possible to use the Chu army to deepen his understanding.
"What's going on......"
In an instant, Wu Han looked at almost everyone, and after imprinting all the generals of the Chu army in his mind, his gaze finally fell on Yu Ji, in fact, from the moment he stepped into the hall, he felt that Yu Ji was a little abnormal.
Although she sat beside Xiang Yu with Fan Zeng detachedly, Wu Han found that she kept a certain distance from Xiang Yu, and her behavior was not what lovers should have, and she was as indifferent to Xiang Yu as a stranger, which was extremely abnormal.
Moreover, Wu Han also found that she was secretly peeping at herself.
At first, Wu Han didn't care too much, but when he found out that Yu Ji's eyes had been on him from beginning to end, he realized that something was wrong.
At this point, Wu Han began to observe Yu Ji vaguely, he always felt that this Yu Ji had a feeling that he couldn't say anything, but the first two times were because they were too far apart, and he couldn't feel anything. And now, the two of them are almost close at hand, both on Xiang Yu's left side, taking this opportunity, Wu Han thinks that he may be able to find some clues.
"Isn't it ......"
When the whole meeting came to an end and everyone left one after another, Wu Han found that when Xiang Yu was about to leave with Yu Ji in her arms, she obviously had a rejection reaction and seemed to be extremely resistant to intimate contact with Xiang Yu.
This is definitely not the reaction that Yu Ji should have, after all, at this time, although Xiang Yu and Yu Ji do not have the name of husband and wife, they have the reality of husband and wife, otherwise how could she be qualified to participate in such an important meeting.
Seeing this situation, Wu Han's mind suddenly appeared in his mind, the feeling that Yu Ji brought to him and the performance of this meeting, as well as the familiar feeling in her.
When all the clues gathered in Wu Han's mind, he suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and a terrifying thought could not be suppressed in his heart.
Although this idea is crazy, Wu Han thinks that it is very likely, thinking of this, the corners of Wu Han's mouth can't help but show a strange smile, and he glanced at Yu Ji meaningfully.
As if sensing Wu Han's gaze, Yu Ji also turned her head to look at Wu Han when she broke free from Xiang Yu, walked down from above, and passed by Wu Han.
Looking at each other, Wu Han spied some obscure things from the depths of Yu Ji's bright and beautiful pupils, and was also sure of what he was thinking, so he couldn't help but murmur in an inaudible voice:
"It's really deep enough to hide......"
Although Wu Han's voice was low, Yu Ji was very close to him, and he also heard his whisper, his body that was originally moving forward suddenly stiffened, and it took a few seconds before it recovered as before, and he continued to leave without any abnormality.
"Interesting!"
Looking at Yu Ji's background and thinking of her previous reaction, Wu Han can now basically determine that there is definitely something wrong with this Yu Ji in front of him.
Moreover, if Wu Han did not guess wrong, there should be no mistake in the player, otherwise it is not enough to explain all this. (To be continued.) )
