A few days ago, on the grassland, a team of nearly two thousand Qin troops was slowly marching towards the west.
Instead of the worry of an expedition, there was mostly joy on the faces of the people, as they would soon be able to go to the western city-states to capture some more slaves and go exchange them for money.
According to General Liu, they were going to get rich.
With such thoughts, everyone’s excitement was naturally much higher.
Moreover, General Liu was a dependable person who had led them to earn a lot of money before.
At this time at the front of the procession Liu Bang was walking with Zhang Liang at the very front.
“Has there been any news from Cao Sen recently?”
Zhang Liang nodded and said.
“A messenger sent word long ago, everything is going extremely well, they have almost reached the city-state in the west.”
“There were some smaller city-states that came over to show their goodwill long ago, so there’s no need to worry too much in the early stages.”
“It’s just that the Huns are also moving very quickly, I’m afraid we can’t keep up with them now.”
Liu Bang nodded his head and sank for a while before he returned, the
“It’s not a big problem, the Huns won’t stay in the Western Region city-states for too long, when they are done plundering, we will then use the excuse of helping these people to stay, only then will it be justified.”
“It will also give the officials a reason.”
“Let’s say that if we don’t stay to suppress them, I’m afraid riots will form in the west and threaten the new lands of Great Qin when the time comes.”
This method was something he had planned for a long time ago, when he wanted to purposely provoke the resistance of the city-states in the west and then excuse himself to stay in the west, and now that the Huns had done this for him, it was also excellent.
Zhang Liang smiled after hearing this and said.
“Duke Pei, your strategy is difficult for ordinary people to match.”
In terms of the big picture, Zhang Liang had to admit that the other party was indeed extremely talented.
Hearing this, the two of them looked at each other and smiled, and both seemed to have a much more cordial relationship.
Fan Kuai who was watching this scene next to him was a bit stunned, and couldn’t help but mutter to that
“A few days ago, you had to kill each other, but it’s only been a few days how come they are so amicable.”
“Big brother is also too fickle.”
Hearing this, Lu Òncouldn’t help but say in a low voice.
“Nonsense, this is what big brother can afford to do, what a true great man does!”
Of course he can see the current situation, a few people are surely can not go back, and Zhang Liang does have great talent, otherwise it can not be one person will bring all the people to this point.
So from the current situation, getting along with Zhang Liang is the right thing to do.
So from the present situation, getting along with Zhang Liang is the right thing to do.
Of course it may be difficult for ordinary people to bear this for a while, but this will require a heart.
This elder brother of his is indeed hard to be compared to ordinary people in terms of heart, I’m afraid that only the current Crown Prince can be compared.
Fan Kuai somewhat disbelievingly skimmed his lips and returned to.
“It’s not because we fell into his trap, otherwise we would have gone back to enjoy our happiness.”
Lu frowned at this time and said.
“Alright, you say less, don’t spoil big brother’s business.”
Where would Fan Kuai be afraid of the other party, he still wanted to say something, a Qin army hurriedly ran from far away, arrived in front of Liu Bang and took out a document, saying.
“General Liu, Great General Han Xin of the Marquis of Huaiyin has an order for you to go to his tent!”
Hearing this, Liu Bang’s complexion changed slightly, then he and Zhang Liang exchanged a glance, then returned, and
“Go and report back to the Marquis of Huaiyin, I will take the order.”
After the messenger left, Liu Bang immediately said to Zhang Liang that
“Success or failure is at stake, this side of the camp is in your hands, be prepared for contingencies.”
Zhang Liang nodded, they had prepared for this.
Soon after, he led his manpower towards the direction the messenger had mentioned.
In a simple camp in the distance, Han Xin was standing in the camp looking into the distance, and after a while, said to Xiao He who was beside him that
“Brother Xiao, do you think that Liu Bang will come?”
Xiao He reveals a smile and returns.
“There is no reason for him not to come.”
“It’s just that Pei Gong is good at befriending people, I’m afraid that when you do…”
Without waiting for Xiao He to finish Han Xin returned, the
“Although there is some friendship between him and I, it is not deep, and all of this friendship is also because of Gongzi Lang, don’t worry, I will not show favouritism.”
“On the contrary, it’s you, brother Xiao, he did think extremely highly of you in the beginning.”
“It’s just that after Brother Xiao was persuaded by me to go over to Gongzi Long’s side, I’m afraid he would only hold a grudge against me.”
Xiao He revealed a smile at this time, and returned with a few emotions, saying.
“It is true that Duke Pei treats me well, but His Highness the Crown Prince is the one who understands me the most.”
In the beginning, Zhao Lang had treated him with kindness.
But the later it got, the more the two sides exchanged.
He found that the other party could speak to the depths of his heart every time, not to mention the other party’s almost unreserved trust in him.
So, his loyalty to the other party is unquestionable.
Therefore, his loyalty to the other party is unquestionable.
Han Xin nodded at this time and said.
“That’s it, this time I’ll mainly find out if he’s really done something rebellious.”
“Unfortunately, I’m afraid that Gongzi Long has only just received the letter now, and it’s too late to reply.”
Nowadays, Great Qin was really too big.
Just at this time, a Qin soldier hurriedly walked over and said.
“General, General Liu Bang is outside seeking an audience.”
Han Xin and Xiao He looked at each other and soon Xiao He said.
“Good, we’ll go and greet him now, and we’ll live up to our previous friendship.”
The two of them then headed towards the entrance of the camp and soon saw Liu Bang waiting at the entrance.
As soon as the two sides met, Liu Bang at this time with a few moments of joy, a few moments of emotional excitement, said.
“Brother Xiao, Brother Han, after a long goodbye today, we finally meet again.”
“Seeing that the two of you are well, Liu Bang’s heart is joyful.”
Said a person a song will two people firmly grasp, next to the Qin army to see, the heart is also extremely emotional, today’s world sometimes a parting may be forever.
So when we meet each other, we are always extremely happy.
Of course, this can also be seen several people’s feelings are extremely deep.
This was said extremely bluntly, even Xiao He could only smile for a moment and said.
“Pei Gongan is good, we are also extremely pleased.”
Liu Bang said at this time that
“Well well well, today we must not get drunk.”
With that, he pulled the two men towards the inside of the camp, and those who didn’t know thought that this was his camp.
Han Xin frowned at this time and was about to resist, but Xiao He on the side shook his head slightly.
The other party’s behaviour was not at all like that of one who had done something rebellious, and it was still not a good time to be impulsive.
Soon several people arrived at the camp and began to drink and catch up, and for a while the atmosphere was extremely cordial.
After drinking a round of wine, Han Xin was already a bit impatient, looking at the slightly smoky Liu Bang, and was about to directly force the question, but Liu Bang opened his mouth first at this time and said.
“When we met again after a goodbye, brother Han is already the Marquis of Huaiyin, this is the top marquis ah, only lower than the Marquis of Che, the king.”
“Just these two titles, if it is not the merit of destroying the country, I am afraid it is difficult to reward.”
“So brother Han can now be said to be at the peak of human courtier titles, I’m really envious.”
Hearing these words, Han Xin’s face instantly became a bit ugly.
