"Prince, General Han captured Wei Bao!"
"The general captured Pingyang and captured Wei Bao's mother and wife!"
"The Han army captured all fifty-two cities of Wei!"
…
The battle between the soldiers and immortals is clean and neat, which is simply an artistic enjoyment.
Liu Ying had nothing to say. He could destroy an entire country with a wave of his hand. With this ability, he was definitely a man who could compete with Xiang Yu!
"The decision for the war is entirely up to the general, but I would like to inform the general that he must take good care of Wei Bao's mother, wife and children, take good care of them, and don't offend him."
The Han army cannot repeat the mistakes Xiang Yu made.
After the news was sent, Han Xin had already arranged it in advance.
Not only Wei Bao's mother and wife, but also Wei Bao and others, Han Xin persuaded Han Xin nicely that the Han army had done nothing wrong in Qiu and would treat the people of Wei kindly, and that all Wei troops who surrendered and were captured would be properly arranged.
As for where Wei Bao will go, it will be decided by the King of Han.
No matter who he is, as long as his crime is not heinous, the King of Han is willing to give him a way to survive.
It must be said that Han Xin's statement, coupled with the performance of the Han army, quickly won the hearts of the Wei people.
After half a month, the fifty-two cities were successfully replaced, and no one was trapped in the city and resisted.
When things got to this point, Wei Bao had nothing to say.
You said that Liu Bang was hypocritical and hypocritical. After all, it was only a question of truth and falsehood. When it fell on Xiang Yu, it was a question of presence or absence.
At this time, Liu Bang's order also came, requesting that Wei Bao's family be sent to Xingyang.
Han Xin readily agreed and at the same time called Guan Ying and asked him to escort a group of prisoners to Luoyang to await the prince's call...
Han Xin was busy here, and Liu Ying was also thinking about it. Hedong is a very rich place, with not only food but also salt ponds. Now it has fallen into the hands of the Han army, which is a good time to show off its skills!
"Second uncle!"
Liu Ying found Lu Shizhi and got straight to the point, "It's not okay to be greedy for military supplies, but there are so many people in the Lu family to support, so it won't be easy for you. Go to Hedong, do some serious business, and supplement the family income, just don't violate national laws. .”
"Serious business? What serious business can compare to cheating Xiang Yu?"
Lu Shizhi raised his head and looked at Liu Ying blankly.
Liu Ying was startled and said with a wry smile: "You can't be deceived!"
"Who said that?"
Lu Shizhi suddenly shook his head, took out a piece of silk from his arms, and handed it to Liu Ying, "Xiang Yu sent someone to deliver a letter to me and asked me to find out if Han Xin has any objections?"
"What? Are you still asking?" Liu Ying asked in shock.
Lu Shizhi nodded, "Yes, I was given five hundred gold!"
"No way!"
Liu Ying was simply dumbfounded. I had heard that there would be bonuses if things were done well, but who had ever heard of bonuses being increased if things were done badly?
Did Xiang Yu take the wrong medicine?
Could it be that he has too much money to spend?
"Prince, I can't figure it out either! Could it be that Xiang Yu wants to take a bait from me?"
Liu Ying rolled her eyes at him, "Are you worth five hundred gold?"
Lu Shi was stunned. In his heart, he was a priceless treasure.
"Something's wrong...What did Xiang Yu want you to inquire about?" Liu Ying asked.
"Inquire about General Han to see if he has any rebellious intentions?" Lu Shizhi said: "Don't tell me, King Xiang is quite smart. The general has all the lands in Wei. If he wants to rebel, Guanzhong will not be able to survive... …”
Liu Ying glared at Lu Shizhi fiercely, and he took back what he said.
Liu Ying paced back and forth, suddenly stopped, and said excitedly: "I know, Xiang Yu suspected that the general did not listen to my father's orders. Instead of reflecting on himself, he suspected that we had made a mistake!"
Lu Shizhi was also shocked. Is that what happened?
Xiang Yu believed Lu Shizhi's lies and felt that Han Xin had few troops and horses and could not take Wei.
Now that Han Xin has won, he must have increased his troops and gained troops from Wei... Han Xin's strength has greatly increased, but Tai'a is against him. How could he be willing to surrender to Liu Bang?
These people who lead the troops all have this mentality, isn't Yingbu an example?
"Prince, I understand!"
Lu Shizhi slapped his thigh suddenly, full of surprise, "Xiang Yu must hate Ying Bu. He hopes that the Han army will also have Ying Bu, so he is suspicious of General Han. Do you think that is right?"
Liu Ying paused, saying this was in line with Xiang Yu's character.
"Second uncle, what should you do next?" Liu Ying asked seriously. After all, lying and deceiving is not what an honest child like him should do.
Lu Shizhi twirled his beard with his hand, as if thinking seriously.
After a while, Lu Shizhi turned to Liu Ying and said, "Prince, do you think what my uncle did is considered meritorious service?"
Liu Ying's eyelids twitched, "Why, uncle wants a reward?"
Lu Shizhi smiled apologetically and said, "No, not yet!"
He paused for a moment and then said: "I was wondering if you could help me restore my reputation. Now people say I am greedy and shameless. Being blocked in the door and apologizing has become a joke in Luoyang."
Liu Ying thought for a while and then said: "Second uncle, if you didn't have this reputation, Xiang Yu wouldn't believe you!"
"Then, what should we do?"
"Let's do this. When Xiang Yu is eliminated and rewards are given based on merit, I will definitely fight for my second uncle and will never treat you badly." Liu Ying said with a smile: "You are making money from Chu State now, and you will be granted a title in the future. With the title of a great man, all the good things in the world will happen to you, so just enjoy it secretly!"
"Seriously?" Lu Shizhi asked doubtfully.
"Of course, we don't lie to our own family!"
Lu Shizhi looked at Liu Ying again and found that the boy looked sincere and didn't look like he was lying, so he nodded.
He thought for a while and then came up with an idea.
"Next, we need to focus on the internal fighting among the Han army. Xiang Yu likes to hear this." Lu Shizhi explained: "He can't take down Xingyang for a while, and he definitely doesn't want to admit that he can't defeat the defeated general, so he will think about it. If the Han army keeps fighting among itself, it will fall apart sooner or later."
Liu Ying blinked and chuckled: "You just know that you can't win in a head-on battle, so you expect the enemy to collapse on his own?"
Lu Shizhi said helplessly: "When I was a child, I also hoped that my eldest brother would be able to do everything, but later I stopped thinking that way."
"Have you thought about it?"
"It's your mother who has grown up."
Liu Ying's face darkened, "Okay, you decide how to trick Xiang Yu next."
After coming out of Lu Shi's house, Shusun Tong was looking for Liu Ying again, and he was very anxious.
"What's the matter, sir?"
Shusun Tong said: "Prince, the general destroyed the Wei state, captured tens of thousands of horses, and escorted 20,000 people to Luoyang... Destroying the country and offering prisoners is such a great achievement that we cannot take it lightly. Now that the king is still in Xingyang, only the prince Come take care of this."
Liu Ying thought for a while, let alone the first major victory of the Han army after the defeat of Pengcheng, and the first time since he was established as the prince.
You really can’t be careless.
"Sir, what are your orders?"
Uncle Sun said: "Everything else is easy to talk about. Does the prince know the four words of arrogant soldiers and fierce generals?"
Liu Ying was startled, "Sir, tell me what you have to say!"
Shusun Tong then said: "Prince, since ancient times, those who have achieved great achievements have always been arrogant and domineering. Even a person like Lord Xinling, after stealing the talisman to save Zhao, also wanted the five cities of Zhao. Now the Han army has a great victory. , some people take credit and are arrogant, and no matter what etiquette is arranged, they will cause trouble!"
"Seriously?"
"Prince, otherwise you can't show your merits!" Shusun Tong said worriedly.
Liu Ying said thoughtfully, "I understand."
…
Guan Ying rides on a tall horse, showing off his power.
Behind him are 20,000 young and strong prisoners, all of whom are to be given to Liu Ying to enrich the prince's camp.
"Your Majesty Pengcheng was defeated, and the Chu army was as powerful as a rainbow. In order to counter the Chu cavalry, your Majesty drew elites from the whole army and gave them to me as commander. This also shows my ability. In the battle of Jingxian, I defeated the Chu army, and now I have defeated the Chu army again. I attacked the city one after another and destroyed the Wei State! I, Guan Ying, can be considered worthy of your Majesty! Hahaha!"
His subordinates all agreed and praised General Guan for his awesomeness.
The people and horses are marching, Hangu Pass is in front of them.
"General, Guancheng is heavily defended and there is no one to greet you."
When Guan Ying heard this, he became furious and said, "We have made great achievements and returned here in triumph, but we dare to close the door and refuse to accept them. How can it be justified?"
After saying that, Guan Ying spurred his horse and ran forward.
His subordinates also became angry and followed Guan Ying, rushing directly to Hangu Pass, insisting on giving the gatekeepers a good look.
In the blink of an eye, Guan Ying arrived at Hangu Pass, looked up and cursed, "Who is guarding the city? Your General Guan is here, open the city gate quickly! Otherwise I will fight in!"
I shouted three times in a row, but there was no response from Chengtou.
Guan Ying was anxious, took out his bow and arrow, pointed it at the city wall, and was about to shoot.
At this time, a young face poked out from the crenel, glaring at Guan Ying without saying a word.
Guan Ying lowered his hand silently, his face turned red, and he said stupidly: "My son, why is it you?"
