The Conqueror Isn’t Alone

Han Xin was unaware of the situation, panicked, and finally managed to wake up Lv Xiandi, who was in a trance after suffering a heavy blow.

However, even though Lu Bu regained consciousness, the eyes that were still shining brightly on both sides were now dull and lifeless.

Han Xin asked him puzzledly, why didn't he conquer Bashu so that he could get soldiers and horses to attack Liu Bang directly?

——Damn it, of course he didn’t expect that! ! !

Lu Bu was so sad and angry that he almost vomited blood!

When he thought that he had actually thrown away the 'Wang Bashu' with his own hands, and then had the chance to stab Liu Mozi's den of thieves openly and openly, he felt regretful.

How could his mother, Xipi, be so smart in the first place? Because she disliked Han Xin's verbosity, she deliberately left this extremely useful soldier to look for Xiang Yu alone!

If he had known that Han Xin could figure out this method at once, he wouldn't have bothered to nag!

Lu Bu stared dimly at Brother Han, who had a particularly bright head and whom he loved and hated at the same time. It wasn't until Han Xin shivered for no apparent reason that he slowly closed his eyes.

Although my eyes were closed, the scenes of the past few days could not help but replay in my mind.

Some were forced to use force to remonstrate with the stupid king, and both sides suffered losses; some had to rack their brains and randomly persuade Xiang Yu to stop making the king indiscriminately in order to clean up the mess; some were flattering and deceiving all the way. That stupid king went to awaken his ambition to dominate the world...

Han Xin looked at his wise brother with a face of despair at a loss, and couldn't help but start to reflect on himself and seek death before asking what he said wrongly. Lu Bu suddenly opened his eyes and jumped up!

"Brother Han, come back as soon as you go!"

After saying these words in a hurry, Lu Bu was swept out like a strong wind.

Han Xin was left standing behind, staring blankly, not knowing what to do.

——Lü Bu naturally went to Xiang Hanzi.

Although this king is a fool, he is very magnanimous. Even on the day he was beaten, he was willing to make him king.

Then if he wants to remedy the situation, he can ask the governor of Bashu to do something for him. With the other party's generosity and forthrightness, what's the difficulty?

King Xiang was a hero who did not even skimp on the fertile Qi Land and the good Yan Land. How could he be reluctant to part with the remote and desolate Bashu that was still under Liu Mozi's control?

The more Lu Bu thought about it, the more hopeful he felt. His eyes were shining and there was wind in his steps.

The land entering Shu is rugged and difficult to navigate, and there are many soldiers who may not be able to take advantage.

All he had to do was bring along Han Xin, a wise man with a damn good brain, and the 50,000 troops and horses he already had, and he wouldn't ask for anything else from the stupid king.

——With this unforgettable lesson, not to mention that in the future, Han Xin will only nag a few words when he behaves mischievously, even if he really takes out a knife and stabs him a few times, he will be willing to endure it.

Anyway, Liu Mouzi is also a newbie, so he may not have established a firm foothold yet.

He and the Bingxian lead 50,000 elite troops into Shu. They will be invincible and invincible. The head of the old thief Liu will be easily captured!

Once he was successful, he left a letter asking King Xiang to give his brother Han the post of governor of Bashu County.

King Xiang won the two counties of Bashu and Han Xin got the post of county governor. Everyone was very happy.

On my own, the sky is vast and the earth is vast. With my own abilities, how can I not go anywhere?

Lu Bu was thinking about defeating Shu's plan to kill Liu all the way, and a smile gradually appeared on his face, sweeping away the dejection he had just seen.

His steps became more brisk, and in the blink of an eye he arrived in front of the main hall where Xiang Yu was discussing matters.

The guards looked solemn and guarded the doors of various palaces closely.

When they saw that it was General Lu who came rushing to see him, even though they were far away, their expressions changed.

This General Lu was a terrifying man who even dared to beat up the most heroic king, and who for the first time had the king wander around the barracks for several days with a bruised nose and face!

How did Lu Bu know that the fight that day, which made him feel quite embarrassed and did not take any advantage at all, and was even ashamed to reveal the details in front of Han Xin, was far more famous than his previous battles in which he killed more than 200 enemies in total? It's mind-blowing.

Lu Fengxian's reputation for being fierce and brutal has already made a big noise in the Chu camp.

After all, among the Chu army, unless they compete in battle in person, there are not many generals who can compare with one hundred, but there are several.

However, in the whole world, there is only one person in the world who dares to punch the fierce and brave King Xiang in the face, and not only escapes, but also gets promoted step by step... But General Lu is the only one!

Lu Bu had no idea that in the eyes of the Chu soldiers, he was already a powerful god who was more ferocious than a tiger, and he was deeply respected.

As soon as they saw him rushing forward, the soldiers couldn't help but think of the loud military remonstrances that night. Their scalps felt numb and they had to pretend to be calm. They respectfully asked: "General Lu has urgent military affairs and needs to report to you." King’s report?”

He was so knowledgeable and knowledgeable that Lu Bu was about to follow suit, but as soon as the words came to his lips, he rolled his eyes and suddenly changed his mind.

That's all, he had refused the job several times before, but now he took the initiative to ask for it.

If you go back on your word, you will lose your face.

If the old man is so reckless and makes King Xiang unhappy and ruins his plan, what can be done?

"No need." Lu Bu's face was as pleasant as ever, and it shocked everyone without even realizing it: "Bu, just wait."

As soon as he finished speaking, in front of everyone, Lu Bu actually leaned on a stone pillar with a jade lion pattern, waiting in a good mood.

However, he was rarely patient and willing to wait. However, the guards knew that he had a very high status in King Xiang's heart, so how could they dare to let him really wait?

go?

Moreover, General Lu seemed to be in a good mood, but if he got impatient in the middle, even King Xiang would dare to beat the evil star with a bruised nose and face, and he might kill a few of their soldiers... That would be easy!

Everyone was slightly shocked, looked at each other quietly, and made a tacit decision.

The others continued to guard as if nothing had happened, and one of them went directly into the palace to report the matter to King Xiang.

Xiang Yu listened expressionlessly to his staff's reports on the many affairs surrounding Xianyang in the two months since he left the city, and fell into deep thought from time to time.

When he first heard that his beloved general Feng was here first, his deep and silent eyes seemed to suddenly light up with a cluster of fire.

The broad shoulders and back, which were originally slightly curved, straightened unconsciously.

He said without thinking: "Why are you stopping us? Let Fengxian come in quickly."

How can anyone dare to stop it? It was obviously General Lu who wanted to wait!

The soldier secretly thought.

But he was relieved, and knowing that the announcement was wrong, he hurried out and respectfully invited Lu Bu into the palace.

Lu Bu's eyes were blank at this time, and he was carefully planning how to fool the stupid king and ask the county governor to do it tactfully without damaging his own face.

Although he was a little surprised when he heard this, he did not doubt his presence and entered the hall openly.

Seeing his flamboyant figure entering the room, the soldiers looked at each other and let out a long sigh of relief.

The civil servants of the Chu State in the palace had long been accustomed to the sudden arrival of Lu Bu, a man recognized as a wise and brave man.

Lu Bu walked into the palace with great swagger, and was led to the second seat closest to King Xiang that had just been temporarily placed and sat down. The civil servants all looked at him intently, still discussing the topic just now.

Xiang Yu's gaze has been fixed on Lu Bu since he entered the palace, never shifting for a moment.

It wasn't until Lu Bu sat down without speaking, but asked for soup by himself, that Xiang Yu, who never waited for the other party to speak, slowly looked away, thoughtfully.

He thought for a long time, then regained his composure and continued to listen carefully to what the civil servant said.

Lu Bu once lived like a fish in water in front of Fatty Dong, and he has a cunning and flexible nature in his bones. He understands well that once you have something to ask for from the emperor, you need to correct your attitude and lower your self-esteem.

Even though he was listening to the boring court debate between civil servants, which lasted for several hours, he always remained awake, looked serious, and did not take the opportunity to go to Duke Zhou.

After the court debate was over and everyone dispersed, Xiang Yu was finally able to look at his beloved general who had suddenly found out for some reason, and asked in a deep voice: "Why did Fengxian come so suddenly?"

coming!

Lu Bu perked up and quickly sat up straight. He skillfully put on a flattering smile on his face and said forcefully: "Although Bu is not talented, I am willing to share the worries of the king!"

Xiang Yu was slightly stunned.

He silently listened to Ai Jiang happily talking about the benefits of the Bashu land, and he was filled with indignation and said that he should not have taken advantage of the despicable and shameless Liu Mouse. Then he changed the subject and said that he was willing to take the post of governor of the two counties of Bashu. , led the 50,000 Guanzhong army, rushed into Shu, and recovered the fertile land.

Xiang Yu had to digest less than half a cup of tea before he frowned and said coldly in Lu Bu's sparkling eyes: "No."

As soon as these words came out, Lu Bu was dumbfounded and asked anxiously: "May I ask your Majesty, why?"

...too far, not good.

Xiang Yu pursed his lips.

After careful consideration, he realized that such a loyal and loyal person like Fengxian, who had no desires or demands and was devoted to Chu, should never be treated lightly.

Fengxian does not want to be the king or lead the county...

He then made a plan to promote Fengxian as the Grand Sima of Chu State in just one or two years, and to control Xianyang for a long time.

Out of intuition, he did not express his true thoughts. He only said calmly with a straight face: "The time has not come yet."

Seeing Lu Bu's eyes widening and asking for further explanation, Xiang Yu's heart became a little tense, and he quickly added a little hastily: "If you have any unanswered questions, you can ask Yafu when he returns."

After all, Fan Zeng was already old and lost to the fatigue of accompanying the army. He occasionally caught wind and cold on the way, so he simply accepted King Xiang's kindness and stayed in a small county outside the pass to recuperate while the army left three thousand elite soldiers to protect him.

The disease has gone away like a thread, and it will take at least half a month for Fan Zeng to return to the capital.

As soon as Xiang Yu moved out the smart man Fan Zeng, Lu Bu believed him 100%, and his face could not hide his disappointment.

Fortunately, this idea was a flash of inspiration, and the plan was far from complete.

Now that he was rejected, although he felt unhappy, he did not become suspicious.

Seeing that Ai Jiang, who was still full of energy just now, suddenly drooped, Xiang Yu relaxed his eyebrows slightly, was silent for a moment, and suddenly said without any waves: "The King of Han wants to ask for Zhang Liang's release with a thousand taels of gold. I wonder what Feng Xian thinks?"

After Xiang Bo's private rescue deeds were exposed that day, although Xiang Yu miraculously did not anger the Han army counselor, Zhang Liang was still thrown into prison again and never saw the light of day.

And after this incident, the prison cell was even more tightly guarded. Even if Zhang Liang had great ingenuity, he could not fly with his own strength.

Zhang Liang seemed to be aware of the dangerous situation, and he was very calm and did not cause any trouble. Over time, people have forgotten about him.

It wasn't until the King of Han suddenly came to beg for help that Xiang Yu remembered that such a number one person was still imprisoned in prison.

Zhang Liang is a Korean and is very famous in Korea.

If he were released and returned to Korea to assist the King of Han, it would be justifiable.

Zhang Liang?

Lu Bu's ears twitched and his attention was instantly attracted.

"In my opinion, Zhang Liang cannot be let go!"

Even if it’s just a piece of cake

After reading some historical records, Zhang Liang's name is still like a thunder.

Although I don't know where the King of Han is, he is willing to pay such a large sum of money to ransom someone, and he can choose a moment when the overlord goes to war. There is something fishy about everything.

Lu Bu was extremely vigilant, fearing that this fool would be greedy for money, so he let the most powerful and intelligent man of the Han army go. He tried his best to persuade him: "This good man is cunning and full of tricks. Once he is used by others, he will definitely bring trouble to the king in the future." . I would rather keep it locked up and waste some food than let it go!"

Xiang Yu said lightly "Huh".

Seeing that this idiot was noncommittal, how could Lu Bu still remember that he had failed to ask for the governor of Bashu County?

Afraid that Xiang Yu would let the tiger return to the mountain and give Liu Bang another powerful military advisor, he had to rack his brains and salivate to finally get this idiot to nod with sincerity.

After taking care of this mess, Lu Bu finally regained his composure and returned to Qinchuan Palace with his normal expression.

Since his wise brother left in a hurry, Han Xin has been waiting in the palace uneasily.

Seeing that Lu Bu finally returned, he was relieved.

Before Han Xin could ask, Lu Bu, who was full of complaints, couldn't hold it in any longer and complained to him, saying that the fool overlord was almost going to do something bad again, and he was so tired that he was frightened.

Han Xin listened silently.

As a Korean, he knew that Zhang Liang was extremely resourceful and far-sighted, and due to the hardships in recent years, he was wholeheartedly loyal to Liu Bang.

For the Chu camp, it really shouldn’t be let go.

Looking at the angry brother, Han Xin couldn't help but smile. Just when he was about to agree, he heard the brother suddenly let go of his anger and laughed proudly: "Bah! I want to occupy the manhole and not shit, so I call that Liu The old thief is greedy!"
