a long song

One.

Chu and Han were unresolved for a long time, the young people suffered from the long-term military service, and the women and children were tired of the transportation of food and troops.

However, it is said that Chu and Han were in a stalemate, but in fact it was just that the king of Han was sticking to Xingyang, and Xiang Yu was also sticking to him.The rest of Qi, Zhao, Yan, Wei, Guanzhong, and Bashu all belonged to the banner of the King of Han, and even Peng Yue, who came and went to cut off the food roads of the Chu army from time to time, was also united with the King of Han.Now, the king of Han has more soldiers and more food, while Xiang Yu has less soldiers and less food. He also lost a general named Long Qie. I am afraid that he will not be able to keep the remaining third of the world.

This situation is exactly the same as Zhang Liang's analysis after Pengcheng's defeat, but he was only imagining at that time, and only hoped that the King of Han would be strong enough, Xiao He would be capable enough, and Han Xin would be unstoppable.Unexpectedly, these three people lived up to expectations all the way, and they were very reliable at critical moments, and Chen Ping frequently made scheming among them, resulting in Fan Zeng's death in Pengcheng, and Zhongli Mei also separated from King Xiang.At this moment, Xiang Yu is really at the end of his rope.

The only tricky thing is that King Han's parents and wife are still in Xiang Yu's hands.

A few days ago, the King of Han sent Lu Jia to negotiate, but Lu Jia returned without success.Today, under Zhang Liang's suggestion, Hou Cheng was reassigned to go there. Hou Chenggong lived up to his mission and brought Taigong and Lu Shi back on the condition that he divided the world by dividing the world.

Zhang Liang couldn't help sighing when he saw Mrs. Lu, who had rough fingers and disheveled hair due to suffering for many years, walking towards the trembling grandpa, and then looked at Mrs. Qi, who was charming and slender, standing beside King Han.

Hou Cheng can be regarded as a great hero, but the King of Han did not reward him immediately.Not only Hou Cheng, but even Zhang Liang felt very strange about this.He picked a time to ask the King of Han for the title, but he only got a hesitant "Pingguo Gong".

Seeing that something was wrong, Zhang Liang probed calmly, "It's a great congratulation that the Grand Duke and his wife have returned safely. I wonder what the King of Han thinks of Hou Gong's trip?"

Liu Ji didn't hide anything in front of Zhang Liang, and said, "Hou Cheng is eloquent, even people like Xiang Yu can be persuaded by Hou Cheng, and he should act according to his words. If there are too many people like this, the people they live in will Countries can be subverted."

What is flat here actually means subversion.

Zhang Liang's heart felt cold at the moment, but he still responded with a smile on his face.When he went back and told Hou Cheng about the title, Hou Cheng understood it instantly, and he couldn't help showing a look of desolation on his face. He smiled wryly and said, "Zifang, Bosheng will leave now."

Within a few days, news spread from the barracks that Hou Cheng, for some reason, refused the reward from the King of Han, left without saying goodbye, and went to live in seclusion in the Jianghu.

two.

Xiang Yu withdrew his troops early the next morning.

Zhang Liang followed the King of Han to the wall of Xingyang City.

The ten-mile camp of the former Chu army's position, the cloud-like tents, the rows of deer villages, the tall camp gates and sentry towers, the "Chu" banner fluttering in the wind, and the thousands of horses and thousands of troops all disappeared overnight.There is only a piece of wilderness left, with thousands of burnt black stoves, like the eyes of the blind, silently looking at the sky.

Only the wind blew over the large tracts of flattened grass on the hillside, raising pieces of broken things, making the ground a mess.

Is this all over?Liu Ji felt a little disappointed in his heart, and couldn't help showing a bit of bewilderment on his face.

Zhang Liang took all his expressions into his eyes from the side.

Xiang Yu retreated to the east, and Liu Ji announced a three-day banquet.

An army without restraint is like a flood breaking a bank.Three days later, piles of bonfires were burning everywhere in the camp, and the smell of wine and meat wafted everywhere.Soldiers were so drunk that they fell to the ground everywhere, some gathered around and took out the gold, silver and jewels they had won to gamble, some fought and fought, and there were singers singing and laughing in some tents... …

There are almost no sentries in sight.

Seeing this scene, Zhang Liang and Chen Ping, who was traveling with him, looked at each other, and they both read the same message from each other's eyes.

opportunity.

Zhang Liang instructed He Yi who was beside him: "Go to each camp to pass on the order of the King of Han, and immediately take strict precautions, and those who disobey the order will be executed."

After saying that, he and Chen Ping went to the camp of King Han.

At this moment, the lights in Liu Bang's camp were dimmed, and all the generals were drunk and walked away, only the King of Han was sitting on the high platform looking at the wine glass, wondering what he was thinking.

Seeing Zhang Liang and Chen Ping entering the tent, the attendants at the side quickly reminded the King of Han.Only then did Liu Ji turn around as if waking up from a dream, looked at Zhang Liang and said with a smile, "Zifang, Mr. Chen, you are here."

Zhang Liang stepped forward and said with a smile: "Yes, Liang has something to report."

Liu Ji cheered up and said, "What's the matter?"

Zhang Liangdao: "Three days of the banquet have passed, and the army of the King of Han is still disorganized and there is no sentry post. This is really inappropriate."

Liu Ji smiled and said: "Where is it so serious, Xiang Yu has run away, isn't it normal for the soldiers below to be happy? Ovary is too worried."

Zhang Liang said softly: "Did the King of Han forget Pengcheng?"

Liu Ji's expression was shocked.

Zhang Liang continued: "It is clear that the King of Han has many advantages. He only needs one pursuit, and the world is at his fingertips. Doesn't the King of Han really want it?"

Liu Ji was silent for a long time, led the two into the inner room, and then said: "But I have sworn in front of the world that the gap is the boundary, so what should I do now?"

At this time, Chen Pingjin said: "The King of Han has occupied most of the world, and all the princes have returned to the King of Han. But the Chu army has exhausted its troops and food. This means that Heaven is going to destroy Chu. If you let Xiang Yu go now, it will be like raising a tiger. "

Liu Ji was silent.

Zhang Liang smiled and said, "King of Han, if he wins, the name of King Han will be recorded in the history books."

Liu Ji nodded after hearing the words for a long time.

three.

The day the war ended, it is also embarrassing to look back on afterwards.

In the last battle, Han Xin put up a long snake formation to divide and then make peace, completely defeating Xiang Yu's army.When Xiang Yu was besieged, Zhang Liang composed a song of Chu, and Han Xin ordered the soldiers in the camp to sing it.

Ambushed on all sides, the heroes in the tents of the Chu army were at their end.A sword dance, Yu Ji don't overlord.The former killing god rushed out of the camp and beheaded dozens of people in a row, and finally committed suicide in Wujiang.

When a group of mobs came over with Xiang Yu's head, arms and parts of his body to ask for rewards, Zhang Liang looked away a little bit unbearably.

He remembered that the first time he met Xiang Yu was on the return trip with Xiang Liang six years ago when he discussed the Korean affairs.How heroic the young general was at that time, with the pride of victory and the domineering young people who had just entered the world, he rode on a tall horse and looked down at him under the light of the fire.Now in just six years, this existence that the princes did not dare to look up to, has now become a bargaining chip used by this group of smugglers to gain fame and fame.

It's really an impermanent world.

Zhang Liang suddenly felt very tired.

The King of Han also seemed a little absent-minded, which didn't match the cheerful atmosphere in the middle tent.He dismissed the group of people in front of him with a reward rather absent-mindedly, and then returned to the bedroom alone.

The next day, the King of Han lingered alone in front of Xiang Yu's tomb for a long time, but he was not sad for a long time, because he was about to change from King of Han to Emperor of Han.

four.

After Hanwang ascended the throne, he changed his name to Liu Bang.Then, today began to distribute the feudal titles, first to the king and then to the ministers. Han Wangxin, Zhao Wang Zhanger, Huainan Wang Yingbu, Chu Wang Hanxin, Liang Wang Pengyue, Yan Wang Zang Tu and Changsha Wang Wu Rui were all enfeoffed. After coming down, they began to entrust the great heroes.

On the day when he was entrusted, Zhang Liang was ordered to choose [-] households by himself.

Thirty thousand households.After Pengcheng was defeated, Xiao Hedu, who sent his youngest 12-year-old son to the battlefield, only took [-] households in order to gather enough soldiers and horses.Cao Shen, who has made many military exploits, ranked first in the hearts of the officials, but he only won [-] households.But Zhang Liang granted [-] to himself, and what's more, the [-] were still in Qidi, which was rich in supplies.

Zhang Liang flatly refused.He bowed his hands and said: "At the beginning, I rebelled from Xiapi, and I met Your Majesty in Liuxian County. This is God sent me to assist Your Majesty. Your Majesty used my strategy, but luckily all achieved the goal in the end. I only wish to be entrusted to Liudi That's fine, don't dare to be [-] households."

When Zhang Liang spoke, he bowed his head and clasped his hands, his posture was perfect, so naturally he didn't see the disappointment that flashed in the eyes of the emperor on the high platform.

After going to court, Han Xin came to Zhang Liang's side.He hesitated and said, "Why don't you accept [-] households? If there is only one Liu County, you won't be able to have the best food and the best clothes."

Zhang Liang wanted to laugh when he heard that, he intentionally teased him and said, "It seems that in our King Chu's heart, food and clothing are the most important things."

"Of course not!" You are the most important thing, Han Xin could barely hold back what he was about to blurt, and he blamed Zhang Liang in his heart, and muttered aggrievedly, "But you deserve the best..." Don't eat How to wear well, how to cure the disease of ovary.Forget it, the big deal is to save the good ones for him in the future.

Seeing his appearance, Zhang Liang's heart softened, so he stopped joking.He glanced left and right to make sure no one was paying attention, and then said in a low voice: "Truth, be careful when the birds are gone, and the good bow will be hidden."
