General Qin

Chu Di, living in Chao County.

A middle-aged man in his forties and wearing felt clothes looked at Fan Zeng with a bitter look on his face.

"Fan Gong, I have been ordered by the Qin officials in the county to go to Guanzhong in three days."

Fan Zeng stroked his beard under his chin and sighed: "I didn't expect the Qin people to be so cruel. Even you, a descendant of King Huai who was hiding incognito and shepherding sheep for others, could be found and forcibly moved to Guanzhong. The emperor is going to move the Liu Dynasty to Guanzhong. All the nobles of the country must be wiped out."

A sneer came from the corner.

"In my opinion, maybe the emperor wants to move all the nobles from the six countries to Guanzhong, gather them together, and then kill them all. In this way, things like Zhang Liang's assassination and Xiang's rebellion will be avoided in the future. , It’s really a complete solution, it’s very good.”

These words frightened the middle-aged man so much that his expression changed. He looked at Fan Zeng in front of him and said, "Mr. Fan, you are a wise man. Do you think my life will be in danger during this trip?"

Fan Zeng glared at Liu Bang who was sitting on the ground.

He turned to comfort him: "Heart, don't listen to Liu Bang's nonsense."

"If the emperor wanted to kill you, why would he go to war and move to Guanzhong before killing you? Wouldn't it be faster if he directly issued an edict and ordered counties and counties to recruit troops to encircle and suppress you? Is it possible that there are still people who can resist the Qin army? So you are here. Don’t worry, although you will be imprisoned as a caged bird by the Qin people in the future, as long as you don’t act recklessly, your life will be fine.”

Xiong Xin was relieved after hearing this, but the bitterness on his face became even stronger.

Xiong Xin is the authentic son and grandson of the Chu Kingdom. In terms of seniority, he is even the uncle of Chu King Fu Chu and Changping Lord Xiong Qi.

He had some friendship with Fan Zeng before. When Wang Jian attacked Chu, Fan Zeng saw that the Chu Kingdom was about to perish, so he advised him to hide his name and avoid disaster temporarily, so as not to prevent the Chu Kingdom from being destroyed in the future and the Qin people to retaliate against the Chu Kingdom for Li Xin's defeat. The royal family. After all, Qin lost hundreds of thousands of troops in one fell swoop. No one could predict what it would do after Chu was destroyed.

Xiong Xin listened to Fan Zeng's suggestion and concealed his identity in Juchao. He even lowered his identity to work as a shepherd for others as a cover for his identity.

He did hide in the first wave because the Qin officials did not have strong control over Chu and did not find out his identity.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Liang's assassination and the Xiang family's rebellion made the First Emperor furious, ordered strict investigations in various places, and moved all the clans and nobles of the Six Kingdoms to Guanzhong.

Xiong Xin's identity was revealed after this wave of attacks, and he was directly written on the migration list.

Fortunately, although Xiong Xin is from the clan, he is relatively distant.

He is the grandson of King Huai of Chu.

After King Huai of Chu, there were five kings of Chu, including King Qingxiang of Chu, King Kaolie of Chu, King You of Chu, King Ai of Chu, and King Fucu of Chu.

Therefore, although Xiong Xin was of high seniority, he actually had little power. He was the number one in a down-and-out clan. He was not as valued by the Qin officials as the nearby Chu kings, and the control was slightly looser. Only then did he have time to visit Fan Zeng.

After sending away Xiong Xin, who looked gloomy, Fan Zeng sighed again.

"Will the world still be in chaos?"

Although Fan Zeng is old, he has a strategy in mind. In recent years, he has been observing Qin's actions after unifying the world.

He saw that the Qin Emperor was extremely extravagant and built palaces and imperial mausoleums on a large scale. They launched wars one after another and conquered all directions. In addition, other major projects such as Chi Road and Straight Road were carried out. The heads of Guizhou Province complained about the trouble, and taxes were increased one after another.

Not to mention the harsh laws of Qin, which were spread throughout the world, making it unbearable for the people of the six kingdoms who were always accustomed to freedom. This was also a sharp contradiction between the Qin system and the people of the princes.

As for the contradiction between the nobles of the Six Kingdoms and the people of Qin, it is even more acute and irreconcilable. Zhang Liang is the most prominent example.

These kinds of contradictions are constantly accumulating. According to Fan Zeng's estimation, if the Qin court does not change the current policy, it will still abuse the people's power. Not to mention that the Qin legal system is under high pressure, and within a few years, the long-standing contradictions in the world will explode.

In the end, the nobles of the six countries rose up, and the heads of the world gathered to respond. In this way, the rule of the violent Qin could be overthrown and a new era of chaos would usher in.

At that time, it will be his chance to show his talents and become famous all over the world.

However, now the Qin people want to capture all the nobles of the six countries into Guanzhong.

"Without the leadership of the nobles of the six countries, who in the world would dare to resist the rule of the Qin people?"

A flash of confusion flashed in Fan Zeng's eyes.

In his long-standing thinking, princes and generals are born with this kind of relationship.

Without the leadership of these natural princes, and without the banners of these six kingdoms clans, who in the world can compete with the Qin people, relying on those ignorant heads of Guizhou?

"Liu Bang, if Qin's law oppresses too much, do you have the courage to fight against Qin?"

Fan Zeng turned his head and looked at Liu Bang, who was picking his feet in the corner.

Liu Bang laughed and said, "Rebel against Qin? Duke Nai still wants to sneak into the Qin people and become a Qin official. Duke Fan, do you think there is anyone in the world who can defeat Zhao Tuo?"

Zhao Tuo.

Fan Zeng's face darkened.

Yes.

As long as Zhao Tuo, the thief, does not die, who in the world would dare to rebel against Qin?

…

Because the assassination and rebellion had just occurred, the Emperor Shi Huang immediately issued this order to move to a higher position, and officials in all counties and counties in the world attached great importance to it.

Things like the discovery of Xiong Xin, the grandson of King Huai of Juchao County, are not uncommon in various places.

Many nobles from the six countries who had been hidden before were cleared out one by one and written on their migration lists. After being gathered together by Qin officials, they were escorted by soldiers from various counties and cried all the way to Guanzhong.

If it were changed to the past, the powerful clans in some places might be passionate and unwilling to leave their homeland and raise flags to resist.

But with the example of the Xiang family being the first to rebel and be wiped out, this migration event went particularly smoothly.

The summer of the twenty-ninth year of Qin Shihuang.

Nobles from the three kingdoms of Zhao, Yan, and Chu entered Hangu Pass one after another.

As soon as they entered Guanzhong, the well-equipped and heavily armed Daqin Lieutenant Army immediately monitored the route and placed the nobles of the Three Kingdoms clans in the Six Kingdoms City.

The number of clan nobles in the Six Kingdoms was so huge that they could not be accommodated in one city, so later the emperor ordered the urgent construction of several cities and settlements for resettlement.

The cost of manpower and material resources will naturally be paid by these clan nobles who have newly moved into Guanzhong.

In order to stabilize the migration, the Qin State did not confiscate the properties of these nobles of the Six Kingdoms. They sold their houses and real estate in the original places and entered Guanzhong with the money.

This was a huge amount of wealth. Zhao Tuo estimated that it was impossible for the First Emperor, who was short of money, to let go of this big piece of fat. He would probably have to find a way to squeeze the money out of the hands of these people. to make up for the emptiness of the national treasury.

Close to the heights of Lishan Mountain.

The eldest son, Fusu, was wearing a black robe and looking at the vast city not far from the mountain.

He turned back to look at Zhao Tuo next to him: "My mother-in-law summoned me to the palace before, hoping that I could bring some benefits to the Chu clan during the migration and give me a good place. I refused, and even this time I moved, I gave him a good place." The place where the Chu people were resettled was the most remote, and the conditions for them were also the most stringent."

"Young master did well."

Zhao Tuo smiled. He had told Fusu before that during the migration, he must remember not to be merciful and not to show kindness to these people.

The words didn't make it clear, but in fact they were afraid that the eldest son would be emotionally moved because he was from the Chu clan, and would give preferential treatment to the clan nobles of the Chu Kingdom. That would be all over.

The First Emperor asked Fusu to take charge of the migration, not only because he wanted to see his ability. I'm afraid he just wants to see if his son's body still has feelings for Chu.

Fusu's background is too sensitive.

In particular, Lord Changping rebelled against Qin, which made the First Emperor attach great importance to this aspect.

He would never allow his successor to have a good impression of Chu people in his heart.

Fusu failed the test this time. Not to mention being eliminated immediately, at least the emperor would be displeased and disappointed.

Now Fusu rejected Concubine Chu's intercession and made his attitude clear in this matter.

Then the First Emperor should also make a decision.

Zhao Tuo glanced at the resolute Fusu next to him, and thought to himself: "Will the young master Fusu who has changed become the prince Fusu?"
