Chapter XXXVIII The Human Heart 3
Peng Yue looked at the grassland north of the Great Wall, and felt a little emotion in his heart, because he did not think that he would one day become an important minister of the Qin Empire and guard the frontier for the Qin Empire. Pen~Fun~Pavilion www.biquge.info Novels.23txt.
It's just that compared to his days in Ba County, patrolling and studying in the Great Wall area made him feel fulfilling.
Perhaps, as one concept suggests, he is more like a veteran who cannot escape the thirst for war.
At this time, what Peng Yue saw was another section of the grassland that appeared like a black tide, gradually enlarging black spots.
He looked at it suspiciously, and what he saw was not anything, but a large number of Hun riders heading south.
"I didn't expect these Huns to choose this place as a breakthrough. However, this is not surprising, because this place is easier to attack than the situation in Liaoning County. β
Peng Yue muttered this sentence, as if this was something he expected.
And beside Peng Yue, a five-hundred-hundred-hundred-lord clenched his fists and asked, "County Captain, what should we do now?"
"Send heralds and falcons to convey the news of the Huns to the south, and in addition, light the beacon fire, so that the nearby officers and soldiers can enter the combat situation!"
After Peng Yue thought about it for a while, he quickly gave this order.
As the Huns continued to move south, a group of five knights rode swiftly southward, and in the sky, under the watchful eye of a falconer, a goshawk flew into the sky, and then towards the south......

Yingbu, this is a fierce general who has followed Zhang Jiashi quite early.
In the original history, Yingbu was sent to a distant place for forced labor because of his crimes, and in this time and space, perhaps because of the flapping wings of Zhang Jiashi, a little butterfly, Yingbu became a prisoner who built the Afang Palace.
After that, Zhang Jiashi became the captain of the Afang Duwei battalion, and in an action of convict mutiny, in order to save the lives of more than 100,000 convicts, he finally risked his life to admonish the first emperor, and even officially tore his face with Zhao Gao, the order of the CRRC government at that time, and the two sides entered a situation of endless death.
Yingbu officially became a member of the prisoner army under his command before Zhang Jiashi entered Liaodong, and in the following wars, because Zhang Jiashi knew his identity and secretly supported him, he finally rose quickly and became a new general of the Qin Empire.
If it weren't for the appearance of Zhang Jiashi, I am afraid that Yingbu in this world would be like his original history, a few years after escaping the prisoner residence of Afang Palace, he quickly became the leader of an anti-Qin Empire force in the south of the Qin Empire, and became the king of Jiujiang divided by Xiang Yu.
When Chen Sheng rebelled, Yingbu went to meet Wu Rui, the commander of Fanxian County, and rebelled against the Qin Dynasty with his subordinates, gathering a team of several thousand people.
After Zhang Han eliminated Chen Sheng and defeated LΓΌ Chen's army, Yingbu led his troops north to attack the army of Qin's left and right colonels, defeated them at Qingbo, and then led his troops to the east.
I heard that Xiang Liang pacified Jiangdong Huiji and crossed the Yangtze River to the west, Chen Ying led his army to Xiang Liang because Xiang had been a general of Chu for generations, and crossed the Huai River to the south.
Xiang Liang led his division to cross the Huai River and march westward, attacking Jingju, Qin Jia and others.
When Xiang Liang arrived at Xue Di and heard that Chen Sheng was indeed dead, he supported the king of Chu Huai. Xiang Liang is known as Wu Xinjun, and Yingbu is Dangyang Jun.
Xiang Liang was defeated and died in Dingtao, and the king of Chu Huai moved his capital to Pengcheng, and the generals and Yingbu also gathered in Pengcheng to guard. At this time, the Qin army stepped up its siege of Zhao, and Zhao repeatedly sent people to ask for help. King Huai of Chu sent Song Yi as a general, Fan Zeng as the last general, Xiang Yu as the second general, and Yingbu and Pu generals as generals, all of which belonged to the commander of Song Yi and went north to rescue Zhao. [8] Xiang Yu sent Yingbu to take the lead in crossing the Yellow River to attack the Qin army, and Yingbu repeatedly took advantage of the military exploits, so Xiang Yu led all his men and horses to cross the Yellow River and fight with Yingbu, thus defeating the Qin army.
After the Qin general Zhang Han surrendered, Xiang Yu led the army west to Xin'an, and sent Yingbu and others to lead the troops to attack and bury more than 200,000 of Zhang Han's subordinates alive at night.
When they arrived at Hangu Pass, they were not allowed to enter, and they sent Yingbu and others to defeat the army guarding the pass from the hidden path before they were able to enter the pass and reach Xianyang all the way.
When he was a general under Xiang, Yingbu often served as the vanguard of the army, which shows his courage in battle.
In 2o6 B.C., when Xiang Yu divided the world, Li Yingbu was the king of Jiujiang, and the capital was set in six, and Yingbu, the king of Jiujiang, ruled Jiujiang and Lujiang two counties.
In the same year, the princes all left King Xiang's base camp and returned to their own feudal kingdoms.
Xiang Yu supported King Huai as the righteous emperor and moved the capital to Changsha, but secretly ordered Jiujiang Wang Yingbu and others to attack him halfway. In August of that year, Yingbu sent generals to attack Emperor Yi and chase him to Chenxian to kill him.
After the start of the Chu-Han War, in 2o5 BC, Tian Rong, the king of Qi, betrayed the state of Chu, and the king of Xiang went to attack the state of Qi and requisitioned troops from Yingbu.
Liu Bang defeated the Chu army in Pengcheng, and Yingbu excused himself from being seriously ill and did not go to assist the Chu state. Xiang Yu resented Yingbu because of this, and repeatedly sent envoys to rebuke Yingbu and summoned him to go, but Yingbu panicked and did not dare to go. Xiang Yu was worried about Qi and Zhao in the north, and Liu Bang was worried about Liu Bang in the west, and only Yingbu was the only one who knew him, and he valued Yingbu's talents, and planned to get close to him and appoint him, so he didn't attack him.
In the third year of the Han Dynasty, Liu Bang attacked the state of Chu and launched a large-scale war in Pengcheng, and after the defeat, he retreated from Liangdi and came to Yu County, saying to those close to him: "People like you are not worthy to plan the world's great affairs together." Sui He, who was in charge of delivering the report, said, "I don't understand what Your Majesty means. Liu Bang said: "Whoever can send an envoy to Huainan for me, let them move the army, betray the state of Chu, and contain King Xiang in the state of Qi for a few months, and I will be foolproof if I seize the world." β
Sui He said: "I ask to send an envoy to Huainan." Liu Bang gave him twenty men to accompany him to Huainan.
After Sui He arrived, because Dazai was the master of the house, he waited for three days and couldn't see Yingbu. Sui He took the opportunity to lobby Dazai and said: "If Yingbu does not summon me, he must think that the Chu State is strong and the Han State is weak, which is the reason why I sent the envoy. that if my words are right, that is what Yingbu wants to hear, and that if my words are not right, let us twenty lie down on the chopping board and chop them to death with axes in Huainan Square. In order to show that Yingbu betrayed the Han State and was close to the heart of the Chu State. β
Dazai then relayed the message to the king of Huainan, and the king of Huainan received him.
Sui He said: "Liu Bang, the king of Han, sent me respectfully to Shuyingbu to drive, and I privately felt strange why you were so close to the state of Chu. β
Yingbu said, "I will serve him as a courtier facing north. β
Sui He said: "The king and the king of Xiang are both listed as princes, and they serve him as courtiers in the north, they must think that the state of Chu is strong and can entrust the country to him." When Xiang Yu attacked the Qi State, he personally carried the tools to build the wall, and took the lead, and the king should dispatch all the people of Huainan and personally lead them to be the vanguard of the Chu army, and now only send 4,000 people to help the Chu State. Liu Bang fought in Pengcheng, and King Xiang had not yet sent troops to Qi State, so you should mobilize all the men and horses in Huainan to cross the Huai River and help Xiang Yu and Liu Bang meet day and night under Pengcheng. You have a crowd of 10,000 people, but not one of them has crossed the Huai River, and this is to watch which of them wins and who loses. Is this what the people who entrust the state to others are like in the first place? You want to rely on yourself in a down-to-earth manner under the false name of returning to the Chu State, and I privately think that it is not advisable for the king to do so. However, you don't turn your back on the Chu State, you think that the Han State is weak. Even though the army of Chu was strong, it bore a reputation for injustice in the world, because he broke his covenant and killed Emperor Yi. However, the king of Chu thought he was strong by virtue of the victory of the war, and after Liu Bang gathered the princes, he returned to the division to garrison Chenggao and Xingyang, transported grain from Shu and Han, dug deep trenches, built high barriers, and divided troops to guard the border fortresses. Cheng Gao, Liu Bang's army held on, the attack could not be broken, and the retreat could not escape the pursuit of the Han army. Therefore, the army of Chu is not enough to rely on. If the Chu army defeats the Han army, then the princes themselves are afraid of their own danger and must rescue each other. Once the state of Chu is strong, it will just attract the attack of the world's army. Therefore, the state of Chu is not as good as the state of Han, and the situation is obvious. Now that you are not friendly with the foolproof Han State, but you have entrusted yourself to the State of Chu, which is in danger, I am privately puzzled for you. I don't think Huainan's army is enough to destroy the state of Chu. As long as you send troops to betray the Chu State, Xiang Yu will definitely be contained, as long as it is restrained for a few months, Liu Bang will be foolproof in seizing the world. I ask you to carry the sword to the Han Kingdom, and the King of Han will definitely divide the land and give it to the king, not to mention this Huainan, Huainan must be yours. Therefore, the king of Han has sent an envoy to offer an immature strategy, and I hope you will seriously consider it. β
Yingbu said, "Follow your advice." "Secretly promised to betray Chu and return to Han, but he didn't dare to reveal this secret.
At this time, the envoy of the state of Chu was also in Huainan, and he couldn't wait to urge Yingbu to send troops and stay in the hotel. Sui He went straight in, sat on the seat of the envoy of the state of Chu, and said: "The king of Jiujiang has been attached to the king of Han, why did the state of Chu let him send troops?"
Yingbu looked surprised. The envoy of the State of Chu stood up and wanted to leave. Sui He took the opportunity to persuade Yingbu and said: "The great thing has been accomplished, we can kill the envoy of the Chu State, and we can't let him go back, so we hurry up and move closer to Han and fight together." Yingbu said, "Just follow your instructions and send troops to attack the state of Chu." So he killed the envoy and sent troops to attack the state of Chu.
Xiang Yu sent troops to defeat Yingbu, who fled to Liu Bang.
When Yingbu arrived, Liu Bang was sitting on the bed washing his feet, so he asked Yingbu to meet him. Seeing this, Yingbu was furious, regretted coming, and wanted to commit suicide. When he withdrew and came to the hotel prepared for him, Yingbu was overjoyed to see that the curtains, utensils, food, and attendants and officials were as luxurious as Liu Bang.
Later, Yingbu sent people to Jiujiang to recruit thousands of people from the old department, and the king of Han allocated some troops to him, and his power recovered some.
After Xiang Yu's death, Liu Bang was proclaimed emperor, and Yingbu, the king of Huainan, became one of the princes with different surnames. Yingbu took six as its capital, and the areas under its rule included Jiujiang, Lujiang, Hengshan, Yuzhang and other counties.
In the eleventh year of the Han Dynasty, Empress Lu killed the Marquis of Huaiyin, so Yingbu was afraid in his heart. In the summer of that year, the king of Han killed Peng Yue, the king of Liang, and chopped him into meat sauce, and then packed the meat sauce and gave it to the princes. One of the meat sauce was sent to Huainan, Yingbu was hunting, and when he saw the meat sauce, he was very frightened, and secretly made people deploy, gathered troops, and waited and reconnoitred the unexpected alarm of the neighboring county.
Yingbu's favored concubine was sick and asked for treatment, the doctor's house and the middle doctor's house lived opposite the door, and the concubine went to the doctor's house for treatment many times, and Ben He thought that he was a servant, so he sent a rich gift and drank with the concubine in the doctor's house.
When the concubine served Yingbu, she talked comfortably and unhurriedly, and praised Ben Hyuk as a loyal and honest person. Yingbu said angrily, "How do you know?"
The concubine told him all about their relationship. King Huainan suspected that she had a ** relationship with Ben He.
Ben Hyuk was frightened and excused himself for not going to work. Yingbu is even more angry and wants to arrest Ben-hyuk. Ben He wanted to sue Yingbu for rebellion, so he took a stagecoach to Chang'an. Yingbu sent men to chase after them, but they did not catch up. When Ben Hyuk arrived in Chang'an, he wrote a letter to tell him that Yingbu had signs of rebellion and could kill him before the rebellion.
Liu Bang read his report and discussed it with Xiao He, Xiao He said: "Yingbu shouldn't have such a thing, I'm afraid it was because of a grudge against him." Please imprison Ben He and send someone to secretly verify the King of Huainan. β
Yingbu saw that Ben He absconded in fear of sin, and changed his words in the letter, and already doubted that he would tell the situation of his secret deployment, but the envoys of the King of Han came again, and with considerable verification, they killed Ben He's entire family and rebelled. When the news of the rebellion reached Chang'an, the emperor released Ben He and made him a general.
......
From these Yingbu records, we can see that the original Yingbu was in fact a selfish and suspicious person with a small heart.
And Han Xin and Peng Yue were killed one after another, and Yingbu suspected that Liu Bang would attack him, which was actually human nature. It's just a pity that Yingbu can be said to be a fierce general on the battlefield, but in terms of his ability to govern the country, Yingbu is even inferior to Peng Yue, not to mention his father-in-law Wu Rui.
At the beginning, even if Yingbu controlled only the two counties of Jiujiang and Hengshan, its strength should be much stronger than a partial division under Xiang Chu, but in less than half a year, Yingbu was so attacked that he wanted to flee Liu Bang, I am afraid that this has nothing to do with Yingbu's own combat level, but the overall strength of the two counties of Jiujiang and Hengshan at that time was quite unsatisfactory.
In the case of Liu Bang's subsequent expedition to Yingbu, this can also be corroborated, because even if Liu Bang's military strength was at its peak at that time, Yingbu controlled the land of the four counties at that time, and it was not too difficult to make Liu Bang or the Han Empire pay a greater price.
It's just that Yingbu finally resisted Liu Bang's army in less than four months and ended up being defeated and killed, and his lack of ability to show civil affairs was fully exposed.
