Chapter 0228: I! Death penalty !!
"Whew~"
"It's autumn······"
In the autumn and August of the 11th year of the Han Dynasty, the south bank of Huaishui.
Seeing the Huainan soldiers under his command come to the river bank, laying a pontoon bridge on the river that is not too turbulent, Yingbu only tightened his shirt slightly, and then turned sideways with a lonely face.
"Hongxian, there has been no change so far?"
Hearing this, the guard beside Yingbu only hurriedly took two steps forward and bowed his hand with a smile on his face.
"Your Majesty: Not yet."
"It has been two days since the king's army arrived in Huaishui, and the spies reported: Cao Shen, the Marquis of Pingyang, the prime minister of Qi, stationed in Hongxian County with tens of thousands of Qi soldiers, and strictly ordered Hongxian to siblings not to go out of the city to meet the enemy."
"In the near future, Cao Shen's department also made sunrise and sunset, and cleared the wilderness with thirty miles of strong walls around Hongxian County, as if he wanted to defend the ······"
In the end, the guards were full of excitement.
"King!"
"That is, Cao Shen has no intention of fighting, and when he crosses the Huaishui, why doesn't the king take a detour to enter Chu?"
"The last general has heard that the one from the Han Wang's family is now in Qixi······"
"Seriously?!!"
Before the guards could finish speaking, they saw Yingbu turn sideways suddenly, looking at the distant clan brother beside him with a look of great surprise.
"The prince's army, if it is really in Qixi?!!!!!"
After the guard nodded heavily with joy, Yingbu looked down and pondered for a moment, then smiled contemptuously, stepped forward, and stepped on a raised mound.
"Hey ······"
"Hey, hey!!"
"No one in the Han family ······"
"There is no one in the Han family, !!"
With the tone that gradually became angry, Yingbu's face couldn't help but have a touch of heartfelt joy.
"Brother Zhong still remembers: When the widow started an incident in Lu'an, what did he say?"
Hearing Yingbu ask such a question in an inexplicably confident tone, the guard only stepped forward with a chuckle and bowed slightly to Yingbu.
"The king said: The general of the Han Dynasty is the only one who can defeat the king, only Han Xin, Peng Yue, and the King of Han!"
"Han Xin and Peng Yue are both dead, and the king of Han is even older and decrepit, so he will not be able to come in person; Therefore, the king will win! ”
Listening to the clan brother repeat this sentence he had said with admiration, Yingbu's face was full of joy as if he had already won.
At the end of June, when Yingbu made up his mind in the royal capital of Lu'an and decided to raise troops on his own, in order to motivate his soldiers, he did say this sentence.
In his heart, Yingbu really thinks that in the past few decades, the only few who can be 'equal' with him are Han Xin, the Marquis of Huaiyin, Peng Yue, the king of Liang, and Liu Bang today.
It's just that when he first said the sentence 'King Han is old and decrepit, he will not be able to come in person', Yingbu's psychology is actually not very bottomed.
- The Son of Heaven is old, and it is not an unknown secret!
As early as ten years ago, when the world was divided by the princes of the Eighteen Roads sealed by Xiang Yu, and it was divided into the two camps of 'Chu and Han', similar topics had long appeared in Yingbu's ears.
Yingbu had heard the words "the king of Han is old and decayed, and he will not be able to achieve great things", and what "the king of Han is old and decaying, and he will die in a few days", Yingbu has heard it more than a hundred times.
The result?
——The sentence 'The king of Han is old and decaying, and he will die in a few days', from the period of Chu and Han hegemony more than ten years ago, has been shouted to the present!
This year, it is the eleventh year of the Han Dynasty, the seventh year of Liu Bang's succession to the emperor's throne, Liu Bang, who has always been evaluated as 'old', still sits on the throne of the Son of Heaven with all his beards and tails.
Not only that, in the past ten years, Liu Bang has dragged on for more than half a hundred years, maintaining a high-intensity campaign of 'on average, a prince with a different surname will be wiped out every year'!
On the other hand, in the past, those heroes who claimed to be 'handsome in their prime' and thought that they were 'far from being comparable to the old and decayed Han Wang', were basically old and old, and they died.
from the overlord Xiang Yu to the king of Chu Han Xin; From Zang Di, the king of Yan, to Peng Yue, the king of Liang······
To this day, almost all of the 'young and handsome men in the prime of life' in the Chu and Han dynasties have turned into dry bones in the mound.
And the 'old decay' who was secretly thought by these people to be 'sure to live for a short time', Liu Bang, the son of heaven, is still alive today.
Therefore, more than a month ago, when Yingbu shouted the sentence 'Liu Bang is already old, he will definitely not be able to lead the army to fight' in front of the Huainan soldiers, but Yingbu was still muttering in his heart.
- Words, already shouted out.
The Huainan soldiers also have an inherent impression of their own king, "only afraid of Han Xin, Peng Yue, and Liu Bang".
In case in the end, Liu Bang really came, what should the widow do?
This question has appeared in Yingbu's mind more than once.
In the end, Liu Bang didn't come.
Not only did he not come, but he even sent the crown prince as if he was giving himself a gift bag.
——A little doll who is only fifteen years old, nothing less, and has not yet been crowned an adult!
Now, that little baby even stationed his own big tent of the Chinese army in Qi County, which is only 200 miles away from Chu and Jing and only 100 miles away from Hongxian!
And it's not in the city, but in the western suburbs of Qi County!
Thinking of this, Yingbu's eyebrows were already quietly filled with a little longing.
The heirloom jade seal carved by the side and the clan seems to have appeared in Yingbu's field of vision, as long as he stretches out his hand, it can fall into Yingbu's hands;
The old body of Liu Bang, the son of heaven, also seemed to have knelt in front of Yingbu, kneeling and kowtowing with a sad face, praying for Yingbu to "survive and die" and leave a lineage among the Liu clan, so as to spread the incense of the old Liu family;
Even! Even the crown prince Liu Ying, who is two hundred miles away from here! They have all appeared in front of Yingbu!
"The king of Huainan is wise and martial, and he should be the king of the world; The kid is just a horseman, and he doesn't dare to work with the king of Huainan······"
Dropping such a sentence, a young figure with a vague expression drew his sword in front of Yingbu and lightly placed it on his neck······
"Hehe······"
"Ha ·······"
"Hahahahaha!!!!!"
"I! Death penalty !! ”
With a loud cry without warning, the Huainan soldiers who were busy building pontoon bridges on the riverbank stopped their movements one after another, and turned their blank gazes to the mound not far behind them.
It was at that moment that the guards beside Yingbu reacted extremely quickly, came to Yingbu and knelt on the ground, tore his throat, and shouted a sentence that made everyone jaw-dropping.
"Minister!"
"Your Majesty Xie!!"
The familiar tone of the guard came to his ears, and it finally made Yingbu regain his mind from his reverie.
Looking at the clan brother who knelt down in front of him, and the Huainan soldiers who stood in place under the mound, not knowing what was happening, Yingbu pondered for a moment, and finally stopped his back.
"Spread the edict!"
"At dusk today, the army crosses the Huaishui! Tomorrow at noon, you must arrive in Hong County!! ”
At this time, the faces of the Huainan soldiers were at a loss, and finally slowly turned into a touch of horror and a little apprehension.
And in the end, all these unsettling emotions turned into a roar that shook the sky.
"Obey Your Majesty's edict !!!!!"
Hearing this deafening roar, and as if soaked in the comfort of warm persuasion, Yingbu greedily enjoyed it for a moment before turning back with a smile.
With a meaningful smile and a nod to the brother on the side, Yingbu took a step forward and walked towards the military tent in the distance.
"Spread the book to Lu'an: forcibly requisition of people's grain, and quickly lose the army for use!"
An extremely firm order provoked the guards on the side to tighten their faces slightly, and then stepped forward with hesitation.
"Your Majesty."
"Lu'an is the capital of the king; If the people's grain is forcibly levied in Lu'an, it will be ······ in the future"
"I'm afraid it's not good in the name of the king?"
But when Yingbu heard this, he only turned around with a smile on his face, and patted the guard on the shoulder with ease.
"When it's extraordinary, it's an extraordinary thing!"
"To cross the Huaishui, the widow wants to leave an old and weak army in Hongxian County to make a feint; The widow led the elite pawn and went straight to Qixi! ”
Speaking of this, Yingbu's eyes were already filled with a strange light.
"This battle is a decisive battle for the outnumbered people to destroy the Han!"
"But with this victory, there will be no one left, and the widow can stop the widow from destroying the Han and replace it!"
"Such a big war is imminent, if the food and grass are not enough, how can the widow say anything about the army? Talking about the Valley of the Broken Letters? ”
Hearing Yingbu's words, even if his heart was still full of doubts, the guards could only nod helplessly.
"In this case, the last general will send another man to find some cattle and mutton to eat, so that the king can sacrifice his army."
Seeing his brother's reaction like this, Yingbu smiled with satisfaction and patted the guard on the shoulder again.
At the moment when he turned around and turned his back to his brother, a word that surprised Yingbu himself was a little shocked, and the ghost sent a god to jump out of Yingbu's mouth.
"Hmmm······"
"In the future, don't be called 'king' again."
With such a sentence, Yingbu walked towards the military tent in the distance with a strange smile.
And behind Yingbu, looking at Yingbu's long back, the guards only frowned quietly, and then looked back at the riverbank, the Huainan soldiers who were in full swing on the pontoon bridge.
In the end, the guard's frowning brows quietly brought a touch of deep worry.
"Chu Di has not yet been obtained, and he has already made it clear that he is the emperor······"
"Alas~"
"I hope this matter will not bring disaster to the king······"
