Chapter 205: Yafu Fan Zeng
It was early spring and the wind was chilly.
On the side of the desolate road, you can see the bodies of people who have frozen to death from time to time.
Most of these people are ordinary people and are from Guizhou.
Although Xiang Yu led an army of 400,000 to take charge in the land of Qilu, it was still not peaceful.
Xiang Yu was cruel and killing. Although he was strict in his rule, he turned a blind eye to the military and harassing the people. Some of the strategists and generals around him were also disgusted with this style.
But Xiang Yu was stubborn and these people dared not speak in depth.
Previously, some princes who rebelled against the Great Qin again and established their own fiefs to compete with Emperor Hu Hai of the Second Emperor of the Great Qin in Luerling, Zhao State for the treasures of Wuling, and were fooled by Hu Hai of the Second Emperor of the Qin State.
Only Xiang Yu did not participate in this battle for the Wuling treasures.
It’s not that Xiang Yu doesn’t love money, but he has greater ambitions.
Those princes led their troops to fight for the treasures of the Wuling treasures of Zhao State and returned empty-handed. In his opinion, they were all as stupid as pigs.
Xiang Yu, who was nearly 100 meters tall, sat in his mansion, with Xiang Liang at his upper head. And his lower head was Xiang Bo, Xiang Zhuang and other important figures in the Xiang family.
"Uncle and nephew held this time the Pengcheng Conference was said to be a feudal place with the princes of various families, but in fact it was to meet and determine our position as the leader of the alliance." Xiang Yu spoke with a proud look on his face.
Among the people in the family, he didn't care about anyone except his uncle. Because these people were short-sighted.
Now, the Pengcheng Alliance is regarded by these internal tribe members very important, very complex and very uncontrollable.
Xiang Yu ignored everyone's worries.
In his mind, only power is recognized. As long as there is absolute power, all conspiracies and tricks will disappear under this power in his opinion.
"Zhang Liang also said that in this robbery of Wuling's treasures, the biggest winner was Qin Ershi Hu Hai. Moreover, Hu Hai seemed very smart. He could kill Zhao Gao in the complex Xianyang City and regain control of the Qin Dynasty, which means that this person is not simple. We must deal with it carefully." Xiang Bo said after pondering for a moment.
He and Zhang Liang are brothers who have lived and died, and they believe in Zhang Liang's words.
"The centipede insect will die without being stiff. The Qin Dynasty has not yet reached its last moment of extinction, so we must be careful to deal with it." Xiang Liang nodded.
Xiang Yu looked at these people and felt a little irritated. In his opinion, this Pengcheng Alliance was just a notice to the princes to know who was the big and big king in this game and who should obey the orders. Unexpectedly, he was complicated by his uncle and others.
Just as they were discussing, military soldiers came to report outside.
"General, some Pengcheng native Fan Zeng asked for a visit." The military soldier knelt on one knee and reported steadily.
Xiang Yu nodded. If there are military soldiers worthy of his special treatment in his army, they are his personal guards.
"Fan Zeng?" Xiang Yu's eyes lit up.
If there are some literati who deserve his attention, then Fan Zeng is one of them. Because Fan Zeng and Xiang Liang are the best brothers, they are like brothers.
Although this person is a little older, he has a reputation in Pengcheng and is an amazing person.
He had sent someone to visit Fan Zeng before, but now this person has arrived in person. Xiang Liang and Xiang Yu immediately stood up to greet him.
Seeing Xiang Yu like this for the first time, Xiang Bo, Xiang Zhuang and others stood up and followed him out.
When he walked through the door, he saw an old man with a slightly hunched waist standing at the door. He looked like he was in his sixties, with his white hair and gray beard, which made him look a little old.
The moment she saw Xiang Yu and others greet her, the old man Fan Zeng took a step forward and clasped his fists and said, "Fan Zeng Pengcheng, I have heard of the general's name for a long time, and I will come to see you today."
As he said that, he slightly clasped his fists and bowed.
Xiang Liang hurried forward, grabbed Fan Zeng's hand, and laughed: "Old Fan, with you, big things can be accomplished."
As he said that, he pointed to Xiang Yu and said, "This is Xiang Yu in my family, Yu'er, this is Mr. Fan Zengfan. He is like me, and you should treat him like an uncle."
Seeing that Fan Zeng was old, Xiang Yu was wise, he was a wise man. In addition, he had heard Xiang Liang talk about Fan Zeng repeatedly before, and he was praised.
Seeing Fan Zeng at this moment, after hearing Xiang Liang's words, he clasped his fists and bowed deeply and said, "I am the same brothers as my uncle, and that is Xiang Yu's Yafu. Xiang Yu pays homage to Yafu."
Fan Zeng hurriedly grabbed Xiang Yu and several people walked into the hall together.
After they sat down one after another, they exchanged greetings, but Fan Zeng did not politely and asked directly: "I heard that the two generals were going to hold an alliance in Pengcheng, what is the purpose?"
Xiang Liang knew Fan Zeng well, so he didn't speak, but looked at Xiang Yu.
Xiang Yu looked at Fan Zeng and said, "The Pengcheng in the alliance is to meet with the princes and kings of various families, and to discuss how to advance troops to destroy Qin."
After hearing what Xiang Yu said so simply, Fan Zeng shook his head and said, "The general is right. As far as I know, at this Pengcheng Conference, the general's main purpose is to use force to coerce the opposition of the king. It is recognized that you are the leader of the alliance, right?"
Fan Zeng speaks bluntly and does not go around the corner. This is his advantage and his fatal flaw.
Xiang Yu heard this and did not say anything.
Fan Zeng smiled and said, "The general was thinking well, but imagine that if there is a great chaos today, Qin lost his deer and everyone will chase him. Which one is not an ambitious person? If you use force to suppress it, you may be kneeling down today and launching an army to rebel against you tomorrow. In this way, there will be chaos in the world, and in the end, you will be defeated by the tyrannical Qin who will die without being stale."
Xiang Liang and others were moved and nodded, looking at Xiang Yu, hoping that he would express his opinion.
Xiang Yu just kept calm and listened to Fan Zeng's words.
Fan Zeng didn't care about Xiang Yu's attitude and said to himself: "Among the vassal states that the Zhou emperor once enfeoffed, the six countries were destroyed by Qin, and only Chu was the most innocent. There were rumors that even though Chu had three households, Qin would be destroyed. If the general wanted to show his momentary power, he could use force to oppress all the princes according to the original plan and let them recognize the general as the leader of the alliance."
"If the general's intention is to pacify the world and govern the countries, then he should slow down and change his method." Fan Zeng's eyes flashed with faint light, looking at Xiang Yu.
Xiang Yu's face, which had been calm, was now moved, and he listened to Fan Zeng's words.
"Please explain in detail with the father Ya."
An undetectable smile appeared on Fan Zeng's face, and he spoke out the route he had planned for the Xiang clan.
