Chapter 0111: I asked about King Liang, not Peng Yue

In the autumn of the tenth year of the Han Dynasty, in September Xinyou (twenty-seven).

After a long journey of nearly a month, the Guanzhong army led by Liu Bang finally rushed to the front line of the war - Zhaodu: Handan.

But after arriving in Handan and setting up the big tent of the Chinese army, Liu Bang's attention was not immediately placed on Chen Xuan, who rebelled against Dai and Zhao and established himself as the acting king.

Looking at the man in front of him, Liu Bang's face was so gloomy that it almost dripped······

"King Liang, is that really what you said?"

As soon as Liu Bang's words fell, he saw the man kneeling on the ground with an anxious face and kowtowing suddenly.

"Your Majesty!"

"What the minister said is true, Peng Yue, the king of Liang, has a !! of anti-form"

Seeing the man complaining bitterly about Peng Yue's crimes, Liu Bang's face turned pale, and he finally waved his hand with a calm face.

"Servant, go down and rest first."

When the man who was called the 'servant' by Liu Bang withdrew from the big tent, Liu Bang thought for a moment with a cold face before raising his head with a gloomy face.

"Do you think what Mrs. Liang said is true?"

"Peng Yue, Mo is really reversed?!"

Hearing Liu Bang's question, the generals and generals gathered in the big tent suddenly looked at each other.

Peng Yue wants to be opposed?

If you put aside the consideration of the princes with different surnames, none of the dozens of people in this big tent have a reason to believe that Peng Yue, the king of Liang, will also have a day of rebellion.

The reason is very simple: since Liu Bang, the son of heaven, stepped down from Dangshan more than ten years ago and officially raised the anti-Qin banner, Peng Yue has almost always spontaneously helped Liu Bang.

From Dang to the north to attack Changyi, Peng Yue, who had more than 1,000 horses, spontaneously came to assist Liu Bang in attacking Changyi; Changyi did not fight, Liu Bang stopped going north and turned westward, and Peng Yue also led his men and horses to follow.

Since then, until Liu Bang made a detour through Wuguan and was able to enter Xianyang first, the soldiers and horses led by Peng Yue have always been Liu Bang's 'supernumerary personnel'.

- The chieftain, Peng Yue, without any appointment from Liu Bang; Peng Yue's soldiers and horses have never been allocated by Liu Bang for grain, grass and baggage.

But whenever something happened, Peng Yue spontaneously led people to follow and assist Liu Bang; After the battle was over, Peng Yue's army quietly followed him to camp not far from Liu Bang's army, putting on a posture of 'being each other's horns and covering each other'.

Then Xiang Yu entered the Guanzhong, almost left Liu Bang Xiang's head at the Hongmen Banquet, and then later sealed the world as the princes of the Eighteen Roads, until Xiang Yu withdrew from Guanzhong and returned to Chu, when Liu Bang, the king of Han, returned to Hanzhong, Peng Yue had nearly 10,000 men and horses, and he was still a guerrilla force without belonging.

In this way, he followed Liu Bang like a fart for several years, until the first year of the Han Dynasty, when Tian Rong established himself as the king of Qi and provoked the overlord Xiang Yu to lead troops to attack, the guerrilla captain Peng Yue finally got Liu Bang's first appointment.

——Grant General Peng Yue's seal, lead his subordinates to the east of Hangu, march to Jiyin, and attack Xiang Yu's department!

finally got Liu Bang's appointment as he wished, and Peng Yue's first battle was also quite brilliant.

With more than 10,000 soldiers, against the tens of thousands of soldiers and horses of Xiao Gongjiao, the general under Xiang Yu, Peng Yue almost killed tens of thousands of Xiao Gongjiao's troops at the cost of less than 1,000 casualties!

Then, Peng Yue 'overfulfilled the task', and when Liu Bang was still busy cleaning up the remnants of the Three Qins, he recaptured dozens of cities in the land of the old Wei Dynasty, completely cutting off the road from Guandong to Guanzhong.

——The land of the old Wei is also the current Liang State; And whether it is the current Liang State or the former Wei State, it is the last barrier outside the Hangu Pass and the last fortress for the Kwantung forces to enter the Guanzhong!

With Peng Yue guarding the gateway to the eastern part of the country, Liu Bang was relaxed and freehand, and he was able to return to Sanqin and dominate Guanzhong.

In the spring of the following year, Liu Bang, who was able to unify Guanzhong, led his army eastward and launched a full-scale offensive against Xiang Yu, the overlord of Chu, and Peng Yue finally got his wish, and officially led his troops to be attached to the account of Liu Bang, the king of Han, in the Waihuang area.

At that time, there were many rumors in the Han army camp, saying that Peng Yue pacified Wei, maybe he wanted to be the king of Wei?

But the final result greatly surprised the expectations of the entire Han army camp, including Liu Bang, the king of Han.

——Peng Yue did not invite himself to be the king of Wei, but suggested that Liu Bang: From among the descendants of the old Wei State, a person worthy of trust should be selected and named the king of Wei!

Knowing Peng Yue's intentions, Liu Bang was full of admiration: Peng Yue is not an ambitious person, but he can take on a big responsibility; Wei Bao is the cousin of Wei Wangjiao and the real descendant of Wei Wang, so let Wei Bao be the King of Wei and let Peng Yue be the Wei Xiang.

In this way, Peng Yue, who could only follow Liu Bang's army like a licking dog, became the Wei minister who held the military and political power of Wei in one fell swoop.

Then, it was Peng Cheng who worshipped, Liu Bang was chased and killed by the overlord Xiang Yu for nearly a thousand miles, and under the response of his relative general Lu Ze, he finally stabilized his foothold in the Xingyang area.

But the army was defeated like a mountain - under Xiang Yu's powerful offensive, Wei Bao, who was personally named the king of Wei by Liu Bang, had no choice but to sentence Han to surrender to Chu.

In the dark time when the Han-Chu confrontation was in Xingyang and the Han army was too busy to take care of itself, looking at the entire Liu Han camp, the only one that frequently went out on expeditions and won many times was the 'guerrillas' of tens of thousands of people under Wei Xiang Peng Yue.

The Han army was in a low mood, and the Chu army was strong, so Peng Yue led the army around the rear of Xiang Yu's army, attacked and disturbed the Chu army's grain road, and even more in Xiang Yu's rear, captured 17 cities including Suiyang and Waihuang.

When Xiang Yu stopped continuing to advance westward due to the repeated interruption of the grain road in the rear and had to turn around to stabilize the rear, Peng Yue hurriedly gave up the captured city and returned to the west of Xingyang.

Then Xiang Yu's army was in a hurry, and he had no choice but to retreat to the Yangxia area, but Peng Yue jumped out for the first time, combining sneak attacks and guerrillas, and captured more than 20 cities around Changyi, and obtained more than 100,000 stones of grain and rice for the Han army to eat.

It can even be said that during the period when Liu Bang was defeated in Pengcheng, retreated to Xingyang, and struggled to support the confrontation with Xiang Yu, the reason why the Han army was able to hold the direction of Xingyang without being defeated in one fell swoop was that at least eighty percent of the credit should be credited to the guerrilla leader Peng Yue.

Even now, among the military generals of the Han Dynasty, there are also similar 'polemic array strategies, and the Marquis of Huaiyin is the first in the world; On frontal fighting, Yingbu is the first in the world; However, when it comes to invading the rear and cutting off the enemy's grain routes, there is no one in the world who is on the right side of Peng Yue's view.

And among the three of the strategic master Han Xin, the peerless fierce general Yingbu, and the guerrilla ancestor Peng Yue, if it is said that who is the most responsible and the least likely to rebel and cause rebellion, it is undoubtedly that from beginning to end, he only knows how to fight with his heart, and has never taken the initiative to ask Liu Bang for a reward and a title from Peng Yue, the king of Liang!

This makes it so that now, when a person who calls himself 'Liang Taifu' runs to Handan and says in front of Liu Bang, 'Peng Yue's anti-form has been formed', no one in the entire big tent wants to believe it.

But if you don't believe it, under the premise of 'cutting off the princes with different surnames' as the general trend of the court, there are few people who dare to stand up and plead for Peng Yue, the king of Liang, who will be purged.

Obviously, Zhao Xiang Zhou Chang is not among them······

"Your Majesty······ Your Majesty. ”

Seeing that everyone in the tent silently lowered their heads, Zhou Chang couldn't help but sigh a little, then walked out and bowed to Liu Bang above.

"Minister······ Ministers······ I thought that Peng ······ Peng Yue broke ······ Never······ No······ Anti! ”

"Cover ······ Guy ······"

Seeing Zhou Chang making a posture of 'I'll expand and talk', Liu Bang couldn't help frowning and glanced at Chen Ping on the side.

After only being stunned for a moment, Chen Ping came back to his senses, stepped forward with a smile, lightly held Zhou Chang's arm, and signaled that he could do it for him.

Seeing this, Zhou Changzong was unhappy, but looking at Liu Bang's not very beautiful face, he finally nodded, and was helped back to the side of the tent by Chen Ping.

Then, it was Chen Ping who stepped forward and gave Liu Bang a little bow.

"Your Majesty."

"Since the prince of Qin was beheaded by Xiang Yu, and all the departments of the righteous army were the princes of the Eighteen Roads, Peng Yue has been with His Majesty for a long time."

"After the defeat of Pengcheng, the king of Wei also sentenced the Han and surrendered to Chu, but thought that Wei Xiang, Peng Yue did not do rebellious things, and was anti-loyal, and attacked and disturbed the rear baggage and grain roads of the Xiang army in Suiyang and Waihuang."

"After the defeat of Pengcheng, Your Majesty had to protect Xingyang, and Peng Yueshi can be said to have contributed a lot······"

As he spoke, Chen Ping couldn't help but turn sideways, nodded slightly to Zhou Chang with kindness, and quietly turned the conversation.

"And Mrs. Liang said that Peng Yue intended to rebel, and the minister also thought that it was not true."

"In the third year of the Han Dynasty, the king of Wei sentenced the Han to surrender to Chu, and was beheaded by the brother of the Marquis of Fenyin, the late Zhou Ke, the Marquis of Gaojing. ①”

"At that time, Peng Yue had never asked himself to be the king of Liang, and even after His Majesty was enthroned, Peng Yue also paid tribute."

"Your Majesty forcibly ordered Peng Yuefang to take the seal of King Liang?"

Listening to Chen Ping talk about these old things, everyone in the tent couldn't help but agree with them.

- That's Peng Yue!

- Liu Bang, the Son of Heaven, was not even the King of Han, and when he was just 'Pei Gong', he took Wan'er and 8,000 people to follow Liu Bang's ass and assisted Peng Yue of Liu Bang's army all the way west!

Putting aside Peng Yuefei's surname Liu, these actions alone have made Peng Yue more trustworthy than most of the Liu clan's relatives!

Thinking like this, everyone couldn't help but raise their heads again and look at Liu Bang's unpredictable and uncertain face.

I saw Liu Bang get up from his seat with a gloomy face, and look around with a gloomy face.

Then, it was Liu Bang's slightly old voice, but at this moment he couldn't hear the weak and sluggish voice, which sounded in the tent of the Chinese army that was ten zhang square.

"What I asked is not the opposite of Peng Yue."

"The person I asked is the King of Liang, is it as Liang Taifu said, and the reverse form has been formed?"

PS: Zhou Ke, Han general, cousin of Zhou Chang, Marquis of Fenyin.

In the third year of the Han Dynasty (204 BC), the king of Wei sentenced the Han Dynasty, and Zhou Ke, the imperial historian of the Han Dynasty, was ordered by Liu Bang, the king of the Han Dynasty, to behead the king of Wei in Xingyang, and then was ordered to take over the defense of Xingyang.

In the fourth year of the Han Dynasty, Xiang Yu broke Xingyang, and Zhou Ke swore not to surrender and killed Xiang Yu.

In the sixth year of the Han Dynasty, Xiang Yu Wujiang killed himself, and Liu Bang, the king of the Han Dynasty, was established as the emperor, established the Han Guozuo, and posthumously named Zhou Ke as the Marquis of Gaojing, and Zhou Cheng, the son of Zhou Ke, inherited the marquis.
