677. Take your brother and choose the Lord

More than 200 people rested for a while and continued their journey to the west.

Suddenly, it felt like our team was a bit like a headless fly, heading towards a place that was not a destination.

What if I found Chen Shengwang and joined him?

When a person is in adversity and has a clear goal, he will often work hard and overcome all difficulties for the goal, but often when a person becomes famous, he will be depressed and greedy for happiness, which is the weakness of human nature, and Chen Sheng has not really achieved fame and got rid of the predicament, he has already begun to grow pride, listen to slander, and kill the deceased, as said upstairs.

It is precisely because Chen Sheng's difficulty in taking on important responsibilities that the revolutionary line he created for the rebel army was also wrong, and he did not defend it firmly. This is important because the Qin state has a strong army and strong combat effectiveness, while the rebel army is just the opposite.

Chen Sheng, Wu Guangyan without faith, said before the uprising that Gongzi Fu Su or Xiang Yan's descendants, called "Zhang Chu".

But in the end, Chen Sheng claimed to be the king when his career was not successful, can he win the hearts of the people?

And the Qin general Zhang Han is really powerful, Zhang Han's strength is known to everyone, he has been invincible, until the battle of Julu was defeated by Xiang Yu and surrendered, can Chen Sheng win such a person?

It is also because of this that Zhang Han personally led the troops to chase and kill Luoshi Village before, and I did not fight back, because in the case of the absolute difference in strength, I can't beat him, even if he is more powerful than Zhang Han alone, but the war is not an individual hero attention, but a matter of unity.

Chen Sheng only lasted 6 months from his rise to his death, but he was already the king, and he built a palace for himself and set up hundreds of officials, but he was unwilling to rely on the inertial authority of the old royal family of Chu in the hearts of Chu people.

He exposed his ambition and selfishness too early, which could only bring the centrifugation of heroes and heroes, and in the end, Chen Sheng was left with only some villains and speculators who tended to be inflammatory, and finally he died at the hands of his own coachman, which is not accidental.

Therefore, later Zhu Yuanzhang adopted the strategy of accumulating grain, building a high wall, and slowly becoming king, and finally succeeded, but Hong Xiuquan followed Chen Sheng's old path, and later generations saw it.

Chen Sheng is called the king, elects officials, and worships generals, all with henchmen, of course, they are all villains and careerists.

Chen Sheng himself has no talent, but there are many heroes and thieves who lead troops under him, how can he control them, Chen Sheng has a group of commissioners to supervise the generals.

He appointed a man named Zhu Fang as the Zhongzheng and a person named Hu Wu as the secretary, who was responsible for leading these commissioners, finding faults and making small reports.

Generals from all walks of life fought against each other, and if they were rude or disobeyed the king's orders, they were immediately taken into custody and executed. Chen Sheng recognized Zhu Fang, Hu Wu and others as loyal ministers until his death, but these loyal ministers were good at acting as coercion and bending the law with their own interests, but in fact, there was no "law". In short, the impact is extremely bad and a big disappointment.

"Lord, why don't you leave?" Wei Zhongxian said behind me.

I raised my head, and I said, "Maybe defecting to Chen Sheng is not a clear path. ”

"But...... We're almost in Daze Township now, we're ......," Wei Zhongxian said puzzled.

I looked into the distance, and I said, "Daze Township, it's less than three hundred miles away from Chu Land, let's go find King Chu Huai." ”

"That's the Chu army!" Wei Zhongxian said.

Jia Xu said: "The lord's strategy is right, now Chen Sheng is the king of the mountain, his ambition is inflated, his eyes can't accommodate other people, and it is said that there is no shortage of strong generals under Chen Sheng's hands, even if we go, how do you say he will treat the lord?" ”

"This ...... If I were Chen Sheng, I would definitely be jealous, and others would inevitably be excluded when they saw that the lord was outstanding...... After all, many of them are bandits, and they may do even more terrible things to the lord, and if they don't do it, their lives will be in danger. Wei Zhongxian said, looking at me, "But...... But my lord, where are we going except to go to King Chen Sheng? We have ...... There is no way out! ”

"Go to Chu Di and go to King Chu Huai, or follow our plan." I said.

"Chu Di's words, we will be in direct contact with Xiang Yu, isn't the lord afraid that this Yu will seek personal gain for public reasons, and then do something unfavorable to the lord?" Wei Zhongxian was obviously more inclined to Chen Sheng's side.

I let out a long sigh: "It's also embarrassing to think that I was the emperor of Lin Xiongtu for two lifetimes, but now I have ended up in this field...... But life is an experience, now we can only grit our teeth and persevere, seize any opportunity, in general, Xiang Yu will not deal with me for the time being, because the identity of King Chu Huai is still quite fearful...... And Chen Sheng's side, in the coming days, he will face the encirclement and suppression of the Qin army, and we will be able to grasp the power in two years? ”

I looked at the two of them.

Wei Zhongxian was silent: "Indeed, there are too many variables on Chen Sheng's side, but it is the same on King Chu Huai's side, there is a powerful Xiang Yu on his side, and there are nine consecutive rings!" ”

"This is not something we are considering, and it will help us even more to defect to King Chu Huai now." I said.

However, in Daze Township during this period, bandits were rampant, and our convoy had just walked for a while, when suddenly there was an exclamation in front of us.

I saw a family member covered in bruises, running towards us: "Help, help! ”

I glanced at Peng Yue, almost dismounted, but found a group of armed bandits in the distance, these individuals were riding big horses, and a group of people were rushing towards us, about forty or fifty people.

When the guy saw us, snot and tears were all over the place: "Help! These bandits have captured our lord...... Ask the hero for help! ”

"Stinky boy, still run!" A man on a horse in the distance suddenly took out a bow, drew it on the horse into a full moon, and pierced it with an arrow without mercy.

I immediately stepped on my horse, and the spear in my hand was tightened with all my strength, and I fired a shot at the enemy.

Shout!

The spear directly knocked the bow and arrow away, and with an indestructible momentum, it killed the enemy directly.

One man was pierced through the chest by my spear and fell from his horse, and the spear did not cease until it stabbed a third man.

I strode past the meteor as the other thieves circled me.

I picked up the spear and went back to back with Peng Yue, killing the enemy.

And these thieves are also a rabble, they don't have much martial arts themselves, at this time the two of us killed the enemy side by side, Jia Xu waved the fan in his hand, and the surrounding Jinyi guards quickly outflanked them and surrounded these thieves.

For a while, the flesh and blood flew sideways, and when there were five or six people left, one of them knelt on the ground with a flutter, and urinated and urinated in unison: "Hero spare your life!" ”

"Say, what hill are you from?!" I let out a loud shout.

The man cried so much that he choked up, maybe because of the severed limbs around him, it was too thrilling.

The man snorted and cried, and said intermittently: "We are here to get the name!" ”

"Vote?"

When I asked, I found out that these were the people who came to defect to Chen Sheng, and when they came to defect to Chen Sheng, they had to hold the certificate of surrender.

The so-called vote is to prepare a generous gift for Chen Sheng's cottage, and these are also slaves from poor families who came to flee, so they naturally have nothing, so they set their eyes on the business travelers around them.

This little brother of the family came here with his master to flee, and his old man and his family were ready to move with all their property, but they were unexpectedly targeted by these thieves.

For a time, there was a conflict between the two sides.

But how can a wealthy businessman deal with a group of outlaws, he was immediately beaten to the ground, and all of them were ambushed.

The rest of this little brother wants to come to move the rescuers, but if we don't happen to pass by, I'm afraid these people will be miserable.

I said, "Disperse, and don't continue to do evil, and if I find you committing murder everywhere, be careful that I take off your skins to make battle flags!" ”

"Yes, yes, yes!" That man has already collapsed, how dare he refuse me.

Here the family man knelt down in front of me: "Benefactor, benefactor, go and see my master, they are still in prison!" ”

"And the thieves?" I asked.

The thief man said: "That's King Chen Sheng's subordinates, there are about twenty or thirty people, and the old man is guarded, we are here...... Chase this kid. ”
