Chapter 15 Chapter 15 Lu Bu in the Chu camp used a strange move...

With a strange move, Lu Bu in the Chu camp rose to the rank of Xiang Yu's chief accountant and became a person with a name and some say. With his high vision, although he was far from being proud of his success, he was finally in a smooth situation. .

The blame must be put on Liu Bang's head. The credit for killing the King of Chu and his more than 60 royal followers cannot be recorded openly.

However, because Xiang Yu never disdained the reputation of his subordinates, it was based on Lu Bu's brilliant record of blocking and killing four generals by himself, or it was spread along with the sensational rumors that the King of Chu met Liu Bang's infantry and stabbed him to death.

After Fan Zeng deliberately sent people to spread it, within a short time, it spread to everyone in the streets and alleys, and with careful ears and eyes, it spread into the Han camp earlier.

Compared with Lu Bu's satisfaction, Liu Bang, who fled back to the Han camp alone, had no time to breathe a sigh of relief when he heard one after another that "the four generals were beheaded, the ovary was imprisoned, the King of Chu was assassinated, and the Chu army would attack on the pretext of attacking the rebels." The Han army's bad news.

Especially the death of Fan Kuai and Xia Houying, even if he was as cold-hearted as Liu Bang, he couldn't help but shed a few real tears.

That was not only his valued and capable man, but also his brother-in-law who treated him heart and soul, treated him with sincerity, and called him "Third Brother" for many years!

Wave after wave, even Liu Bang, who was as tough as Liu Bang, was so angry that he fainted on the spot!

Under the hurried rescue of his generals, Liu Bang, who subconsciously knew that the Han army was in danger, did not fall into coma for long before he woke up. After vomiting a mouthful of blood, the breath that was blocked in his chest was released. Slightly better.

At this time, he did not know that it was Lu Bu who was in charge, and he also deliberately forgot his arrangement of leaving the four generals behind to fight and using them as shields. He directed all his resentment at Xiang Yu: "What a vicious Xiang Ji!"

Whether it was him or the resourceful counselors such as Zifang, they all completely underestimated Xiang Ji, who usually used arrogance as a disguise, but once he started to play tricks, he was more ruthless than anyone else!

How could he have thought that Xiang Ji, who had always been upright and aboveboard, and even a woman's benevolent person, would suddenly be enlightened and find this huge flaw in him?

Just because of a moment of greed, not only did he become a wedding dress for the enemy, but he was also splashed with sewage all his life, and ended up having to run away in embarrassment... Liu Bang was so regretful that he wished he could turn back time and get rid of the pride of that day. I have a few big ears.

With this move, Xiang Yu not only succeeded in killing the lord who had been hindering the Chu army who only obeyed his orders, but also made excellent use of him to make a big fuss about recruiting troops, hiding horses and escaping from the banquet, right? After the followers who are willing to obey the order are silenced, they can use those Chu officials who are greedy for life and afraid of death to put this unjust stigma on his head!

Liu Bang, who has always been eloquent and quick-witted, experienced this for the first time.

Although Xiang Jui cannot deceive all the smart people in the world, people are against him, and most of them are ordinary people who cannot read a word and only hear what he hears.

Moreover, the powerful Chu army was about to overwhelm him and kill him. Who could he clarify and explain to, and who could he implore to uphold justice?

"General, time is pressing, please give the order quickly."

Zhang Liang left and never returned. When Liu Bang was helpless and desperate, Xiao He had no choice but to go out and warn him.

Speaking of the sadness in their hearts, Fan Kuai, Xia Hou, Xiao He and Cao Shen, who had known each other since Peixian County, were no less sad than Liu Bang who was in tears at this time.

But when disaster strikes, it's not their turn to feel sad for their dead brother.

There are eight city gates in Xianyang, six of which are guarded by the Chu army, and only four are still under the control of the Han army.

However, nearly half of the 100,000 Han troops under Liu Bang were still stranded in the city.

How much you want to bring and how much you can bring must be decided as soon as possible before the Chu army is completely dispatched.

Liu Bang took a deep breath sadly, raised his red eyes, and said hoarsely: "There are only 20,000 Chu troops in the city, and Xiang Jui is in the palace. If we gather 100,000 troops and don't escape the counterattack, rush into the palace and kill Xiang Jui." I was caught off guard, can I fight him to the death?"

As soon as this crazy decision was made, the people around him were horrified and tried to dissuade him.

"This matter must not be done!" All the veterans, including Cao Shen, Zhou Bo and Guan Ying, all bowed down: "General, please be careful!"

Although they did not actually go to the Battle of Julu, which made Xiang Yu famous all over the world, the opponent relied on his natural general talents to defeat the powerful Qin army with high morale. The tyrannical Qin soldiers were captured by the Chu army. The tragic rumors of the ruthless massacre have been made known to the world.

Although Liu Bang had some ability to lead troops in battle, he was overshadowed by Xiang Yu's pearls and jade in front of him - not to mention that Xiang Yu was most proud of winning a quick battle with less and more.

At present, the Chu army has an absolute advantage in numbers, how can the Han army compete with it? How can this be that we are all going to die together, but we are clearly seeking death by striking an egg against a stone?

Liu Bang was "forced" by them. Although he was still stiff and panting like an ox, he would not say anything about using 100,000 Han soldiers to attack Xiang Yu.

Xiao He, who had been silent since the reminder just now, saw that he had become much calmer and stepped forward again: "Although the current situation is bad and dangerous, it is not a desperate situation. There is still hope for hope."

Liu Bang's expression moved slightly, and his voice was hoarse: "Where do you start with this?"

Xiao He did not answer but asked instead: "If there is wine every day and beauty every night, will the general enjoy it happily and let his will be consumed by it?"

"Don't be ridiculous," Liu Bang said with a wry smile: "Now my life is almost gone, where can I find such a beautiful woman?"

Xiao He said nothing and only stared at Liu Bang silently.

Liu Bang then straightened up his expression and replied seriously: "Drinking and beauties are just a casual pastime. How can they be compared with the great events in the world?"

Xiao He smiled slightly, and then continued: "Xiang Yu's army is strong, it cannot be defeated by force, it can only be outmaneuvered, and blindly rush forward. Not to mention the destruction of both the jade and the stone, it is just self-destruction."

Liu Bang wrinkled his face in embarrassment, but did not open his mouth to refute.

Xiao He changed the subject: "General, do you still remember the events of King Tang of Shang and King Gou Jian of Yue? Major events in the world can only be planned slowly, not quickly. We should not make rapid advances because of temporary gains, nor shrink back because of temporary losses. Only those who are willing to bend their waists and endure temporary difficulties when they see the situation clearly can win the trust of the people in the future. Since the general has no fear of locking up the country and suffering people, I hope that the general will happily let go of all the extraneous things around him and go to Bashu. Gather people's hearts, employ wise men, and use the two counties as the foundation of the king's business. When the situation becomes turbulent, recruit allies again, gather the power of the two counties, and counterattack the key points."

What Xiao He did not mention was that Xiang Yu seemed to have a lot of followers around him, but because of his nepotism, he ignored Xiang Bo, the beetle that was eating away at the heart of the tree.

With Zhang Liang's intelligence and dexterity, it is unlikely that he would die just like that. As long as he lives for one day, Xiang Bo can be used by them, and the turning point they are looking forward to may come earlier than imagined.

Liu Bang listened carefully to Xiao He's words, sighed for a long time, and nodded heavily: "According to Sir's plan."

Although the two counties of Bashu are remote and once barren and backward, they are said to be vast in land and rich in resources, and their people have always been comfortable and self-sufficient.

Especially after the careful management of the former Qin Dynasty, the water conservancy was built, the city walls were repaired, the order was in order, and all aspects were completely renewed.

Based on this, this was the final retreat that Liu Bang once considered.

The most important thing is that Bashu is surrounded by natural dangers, with towering mountains and narrow and rugged roads. It is notoriously easy to defend and difficult to attack.

Not to mention the large army, even a small group of troops marching on top are frightened and cannot withstand the slightest carelessness.

It was such a difficult path that Xiang Yu had no use even if he relied on his troops to pursue him.

Moreover, he had poured sewage on his head and his ultimate goal had been achieved. There was no need to kill him. In the future, he could be put under house arrest just by deploying heavy troops in Hanzhong.

Liu Bang was filled with sadness under the pressure, and made the quickest arrangements for quietly withdrawing his troops into Bashu.

He thought with pleasure: Fortunately, he had thought about this before and had a rather detailed plan. It would not be difficult for him to restart the old plan now.

Unfortunately, the road to Shu was difficult and he did not have many troops to lead. Moreover, the Chu army was approaching fiercely. He would have to sacrifice most of his troops to block the opponent and buy time for his evacuation.

When the Chu army led by Xiang Yu's powerful generals Ying Bu and Zhong Lizhen entered the Han camp, but the Han soldiers were leaderless and were at the mercy of others, it was shockingly discovered that they were one step too late, leaving the cunning and cold-blooded Liu Bang with only a handful of soldiers. The cronies and five thousand elite soldiers of the headquarters ran westward along the path!

Without the position of leading the army, he could only stay in the palace. Lu Bu, who was waiting dryly for news, learned that 30,000 of the more than 90,000 Han soldiers who had been left behind had been slaughtered, and the remaining 60,000 had all surrendered, but unfortunately When the bad news told Liu Bang and others to run away, they didn't get furious, but were completely numb.

...What can he say?

Lu Bu, who was given a seat next to Xiang Yu and took the precious seat usually occupied by Xiang Bo, stretched out his long legs arrogantly. Compared with Xiang Yu who was sitting upright next to him, he looked completely unruly and unruly. .

However, he only fixed a pair of dead fish eyes full of resentment on the high-spirited Ting Bu who was excitedly reporting the results of the battle to Xiang Yu.

Not to mention Xiang Yu's procrastination, and the people surnamed Liu he met were probably born to be rats, and they could run faster than anything else...

If he had been allowed to lead the troops in pursuit instead of the fool with the same name, he would have been easily captured!

Ying Bu's attention was entirely focused on Xiang Yu who was listening silently. He did not notice the burning gaze of Lu Bu at the side, but he caught the silent Zhong Lizei's peripheral vision.

Zhongli Mei glanced at the eloquent Tie Bu, and then at Lu Bu who was sitting next to King Xiang. After sensing the inexplicable hostility, he couldn't help but feel a little confused.

Could it be that one mountain cannot tolerate two cloths?

An idea flashed in Zhong Lizhen's mind.

He frowned slightly and began to think randomly: For the sake of Pao Ze's affection, even though he had no close friendship with Ting Bu, he still had to give him some advice.

——After all, although he didn’t know the details in the palace, the name of the other party as ‘Lv Poison Master’ came from the mouths of those former ministers of the King of Chu who were so scared that they couldn’t lie.

Seeing Yafu treat Lu Bu so politely shows that his intelligence is extraordinary.

Lu Bu, who stared bitterly and resentfully at the incompetent Tao Bu, would never have imagined that one day he would be labeled a "poisoner" for his stupidity.

And Xiang Yu's thoughts were indeed as Liu Bang predicted.

Although he failed to behead Liu Bang and felt a little regretful that he had a more beautiful "account" for the "world", the object of his most hostility was the King of Chu who persisted in confronting him tit for tat.

Now that the King of Chu was dead, Liu Bang, who in his eyes was just a clown who was able to stir up trouble by borrowing the power of the King of Chu, was fortunately a clever clown, and now he was running around in the Bashu area in embarrassment, so he was obviously not in danger.

In the future, as long as a heavy army is stationed in Hanzhong, the people of Shu can be blocked to death.

Any general with a little experience in fighting can see this at a glance, and Lu Bu himself knew it very well.

This made him even more anxious: If Liu Bang couldn't hold it in, what else could he do to the turtle grandson? You can't follow him into the mouse hole!

——It’s a must.

Lu Bu, who had been frustrated many times in killing Liu Bang, but became more courageous with each setback, rolled his eyes.

, and suddenly I had a new idea.

With his great achievements that are difficult to publicize, and Xiang Yu's generosity, he will definitely be rewarded in the future. Then he could ask for a general position at least leading troops, and then ask to personally guard Hanzhong.

With Liu Bang's grandson's wolfish ambition, if he saw any opportunity, he would definitely not be willing to spend his whole life nestling in that one-third of an acre of land to retire leisurely - he could lure the enemy out of his hole and then give him a head-on blow!

Lu Bu was thinking happily when suddenly there was a dull "gurgling" sound in his belly, and he suddenly felt hungry.

He has always been very thick-skinned, and because of Xiang Bo's obstruction, he was unable to attend the banquet, and then quickly killed more than seventy people. Although he was miraculously unscathed, his physical strength was also greatly exhausted.

Xiang Yu and others who had summoned him to accompany him as a staff member had eaten well at the previous banquet. At this moment, they were only preoccupied with how to finish the meal, and they had ignored the fact that Lu Bu had not eaten yet after a whole day.

The sound was not loud, but Xiang Yu, who was the closest, could hear it clearly. He frowned slightly, and after thinking about it for a moment, he realized that he had made an oversight. He turned back silently and looked at the halberd behind him.

Han Xin seemed to be the only one in the room who still cared about Lu Bu's hunger. Before Xiang Yu could say anything, he had already stepped out of the queue and whispered: "I will order people to prepare dinner now."

"Thank you, General Xiang, but there is no need to bother Brother Han." Han Xin stood closer, and Lu Bu, with his keen sense of smell, caught the very faint smell of meat mixed with spices, and his eyes lit up immediately.

As he said this, without thinking about it, he swiped into Han Xin's sleeves and took out several portions of dried meat carefully wrapped in clean cloths. Then he started to nibble on the cold soup in front of him without hesitation, and returned While chewing, he thanked vaguely: "Thank you also, Brother Han."

Xiang Yu silently stared at the careless Lu Bu for a while, not knowing what he was thinking. He looked away for a long time, but he forgot to mention the dinner order again.

After Han Xin was stunned, he looked at Lu Bu, who was eating the meat that had become dry and delicious, and felt an inexplicable feeling of satisfaction in his heart... like feeding a tiger.
