After Pei Gong captured Xiayi, he led his troops to capture Fengyi. The rebel general Yong Chi and Wei general Zhang said that they saw Pei Gong coming again and knew that they could not defeat him, so they tied old lady Liu to the top of the city and threatened Pei Gong to retreat. Pei Gong was furious when he saw his father being tied up. He pointed at Yong Chi and cursed: "Yong Chi, you bastard! If you have the ability to cut off my head, why do you bully the old and the weak? Are you still a human being?" "Zhang said, pointing at the old lady Liu and saying: "Liu Bang, if you don't retreat, kill him first!" Then he put the sword on the old lady's neck. Pei Gong was so shocked that he almost broke into a cold sweat. Zhang Liang saw that Liu Taigong was in danger, so he persuaded Pei Gong to retreat. Zhang said that when he saw Pei Gong retreating, he sneered and took Taigong down.
Pei Gong retreated five li and stationed his troops. Zhang Liang said: "If we attack by force, we are afraid that they will kill Grand Duke. I am also worried about another thing." Pei Gong asked what it was. Zhang Liang said: "Sima Yi, whom we killed earlier, I heard that he was the nephew of Qin general Sima Xin and Zhang Han's favorite general. If Zhang Han leads his troops in person, the danger will be even greater, so we have to think It’s a perfect strategy.” Pei Gong asked what should be done. Zhang Liang said: "Yesterday, I came to report that Xiang Liang had driven out Qin Jia and Jing Ju was missing. Now Xiang Liang's army is in Liucheng. Xiang Liang is Xiang Yan's son. He has a high reputation and the people will definitely join him. We might as well go to Xiang Liang and borrow some soldiers and horses now. If there are too many people to besiege the city, Zhang said, he will definitely be afraid, and if he is afraid, he will flee, so that your family can be rescued safely." But Pei Gong hesitated and said, "I I have never met Xiang Liang, how can he be willing to lend me troops?" Zhang Liang said: "Heroes have always cherished heroes, why do we need to meet each other? Now that the enemy is facing us, we only seek common interests. I have decided to stay in the city, and you will not only be able to After borrowing troops and horses, I will also persuade Xiang Liang to go north to fight Zhang Han. This can not only expand the situation of resisting Qin, but also preserve the abundant people, why not do it?" Pei Gong listened to Zhang Liang's plan. , and said happily: "Sir, this idea is great. If I can save my father, it will be all thanks to you!"
Pei Gong first came to Pei County and told Xiao He about borrowing troops. Xiao He also agreed with Zhang Liang's decision. Suddenly someone came in and reported that Ning Jun, Liu Zhao, Zhu Biao, and Zhu Hu from Chu State were here. Pei Gong was overjoyed. He was about to learn about the situation in Liucheng, so he immediately sent an order to see him. After Ning Jun and Liu Zhao met Pei Gong, they explained the previous events in detail. Pei Gong said: "Qin Jia is a profit-seeking and unjust person, and he blocked Xiang Liang's troops. This was originally very ridiculous. Now he is dead and his country is destroyed, and it is all his own fault. And you still remember me, Liu Bang, in your hearts , I am very grateful for this, and I also hope that Mr. Ning will forget about the urinal, and we can continue to cooperate?" Ning Jun said: "General, 'big things do not care about details'. Although there are flaws, they can't cover up the light of the sun and the moon. How do you know the Spring and Autumn Period?" Pei Gong laughed and said, "You don't need to praise people by quoting scriptures. I will still 'disregard meticulousness' in the future. I hope you will be careful!" After hearing Pei Gong's words, everyone laughed happily. Then Pei Gong asked Ning Jun, Liu Zhao and the Zhu brothers to temporarily guard Peixian County with Xiao He. He took Zhang Liang, Xia Houying and others, and led 300 followers to leave Peixian County for the third time to Liucheng. Come.
When Pei Gong and his party came to Liucheng, Zhang Liang was going to meet his old friend Xiang Bo first, but Xiang Bo was in the rear supervising the grain and grass management and was not in the army. When Zhu Jian heard that Zhang Liang was coming, he hurried to meet him. After the two met, Zhang Liang told Pei Gong that he wanted to borrow troops. Without saying a word, Zhu Jian led Zhang Liang and Liu Bang to see Xiang Liang. When Zhu Jian saw Xiang Liang, he introduced Pei Gongdao: "This is Liu Bang who killed the snake in Si to revolt. He defeated the Qin army many times and killed Zhang Han's favorite general Sima Yi. His record was very outstanding." Xiang Liang Seeing that Pei Gong was dignified and handsome, he said: "General Liu can be called a true hero!" Zhu Jian introduced Zhang Liang and said: "This is Zhang Liang who assassinated Ying Zheng in Bolangsha - Zhang Zifang Sir." Xiang Liang was very surprised when he heard that Zhang Liang had arrived, and said, "The strong man is famous like thunder, and your feat in Bolangsha is famous all over the world!" Zhang Liang said, "The strong man has already died, and I am just the mastermind of that matter. It is not worthy of praise, because at that time, I hated Qin very much, so I took the risk and took this drastic measure. Now that I think about it, it is still not worth it." Xiang Liang stood up and walked to Zhang Liang and Pei Gong, saluted and said, "Xiang Liang and the two of you are here today. What a pleasure to meet you! What a pleasure to meet you!" He asked Zhu Jian how he met Mr. Zhu Jian briefly recounted what had happened before. Xiang Liang was overjoyed and immediately ordered people to invite Xiang Yu and a group of heroes from Jiangdong to meet them.
After a while, Xiang Yu and others filed in. Xiang Liang introduced Pei Gong and Zhang Liang to everyone. Then he introduced Xiang Yu and others to Pei Gong and Zhang Liang. Pei Gong met Xiang Yu. He saw that Xiang Yu was handsome and tall, like a superman, and he was a little in awe at first. Xiang Yu saw that Pei Gong was generous and generous, and he really had the demeanor of an elder, and he liked him from the bottom of his heart. The two of them had a feeling of déjà vu. Pei Gong said to Xiang Liang: "The general has such a heroic nephew, why worry about the strong Qin Dynasty?" Xiang Yu was overjoyed when he saw Pei Gong praising him, and said: "General Liu killed Sima Yi and defeated Zhang. Han's majesty, you are also a hero!" When Xiang Yu met Zhang Liang again, he praised: "Sir's attack in Bolangsha shocked the world. I also had the opportunity to assassinate Ying Zheng, but it was a pity that my uncle stopped me. Otherwise, Ying Zheng will die in my hands!" Xiang Yu's bold and bold nature was revealed without any obstruction. After hearing this, Xiang Liang hurriedly said: "What my nephew said was not a boast. He also wanted to kill Ying Zheng, but I stopped him! This is true, hehe!" Pei Gong asked curiously: " Oh, what's going on?" Xiang Liang smiled and said, "Okay, okay, let's serve the wine first, and then I'll tell everyone slowly." He immediately ordered someone to arrange the banquet first.
After the banquet was set, Xiang Liang raised his wine and said, "Come on, come on, I'll toast you two first." Then he toasted to Liu Bang and Zhang Liang. The two of them also responded to Xiang Liang. After drinking for three rounds, Xiang Liang said with a smile: "Let me tell you now, our Xiang family, like Mr. Zifang, was the target of arrest by the Qin State. In order to avoid the arrest of the Qin people, our family fled from Xiaxiang to Wuzhong. , It can be said that it was a narrow escape! Later, Ying Zheng visited Kuaiji County on his southern tour. I remember that that day, Wu County was very lively. People were watching Ying Zheng’s driving in the city. It happened that Xiang Yu and I were also there. Guess what happened to Xiang Yu? He was about to go out to attack Killing Ying Zheng, he also said, "I can replace him." Oh, my dear mother, I was really scared to death at that time, so I quickly covered his mouth and said, "You don't want your life, this is really dangerous." You're going to destroy the whole family!'" After Xiang Liang finished speaking, he laughed proudly.
But Xiang Yu said seriously: "If my uncle hadn't stopped me that day, I would have killed Ying Zheng!" Xiang Liang said: "Yu'er, don't boast. Even with Mr. Zifang's talent, you didn't succeed. You really had to take action that time." , even if you kill Ying Zheng, he has so many guards, how can we escape with our lives?" Xiang Yu said to Zhang Liang: "It's a pity that I didn't think of using a big iron awl!" Zhang Liang smiled and said: "Even if it was back then, Even if Ying Zheng is killed, Qin will not be destroyed. Our actions were too reckless. Thinking about it today, it is really not worth mentioning!" Pei Gong thought to himself: Mr. Zifang and Xiang Yu are both nobles, because they lost their country. I must hate Qin very much, and I am just an ordinary person. I have no deep hatred against Qin. It was only because I released the gang of soldiers who were sent to Lishan that I was forced to go to Mangdang Mountain with no way out. If it weren't for the uprising of King Zhang Chu, I might have died of old age in Mangdang Mountain in this life. However, when I met the emperor's chariot in Xianyang, I didn't think of killing him. Instead, I said with envy, "A real man should be like Ying Zheng." ', doesn't this mean the same as what Xiang Yu said?
Seeing that Xiang Liang was in high spirits, Zhu Jian told Pei Gong that he wanted to borrow troops. Xiang Liang said with emotion: "I raise troops for the world, how can I not think about others? Today, I have the same goal as General Liu, and I share the same loyalty. I am willing to help the general!" Pei Gong immediately stood up and said, "I miss Liu Ji, who has only a few soldiers, and even my hometown It’s really shameful that we can’t even protect them. General Xiang acts so generously and can help others when they are in urgent need. He is really a blessing to the people of Chu. He is relied upon by the people!” Xiang Liang laughed and said, “I will lend General Xiang 5,000 cavalry. General, how about helping you to recover Fengyi?" Pei Gong thanked him again and again and said, "General Xiang is so generous in helping me. Liu will definitely never forget your kindness in this life!" Seeing Xiang Liang being so happy, Zhang Liang also got up and said: " General Xiang, now that you have occupied Liucheng, this will definitely alarm Zhang Han, and Liu Peigong also killed Zhang Han's favorite general Sima Yi. Zhang Han will probably go south soon. Our strength is really not enough. To compete with Zhang Han, please also ask the general to go north immediately and attack Qin hard to save the world from resisting Qin!" Xiang Liang said decisively: "I raised the army to destroy Qin. Now if Zhang Han comes, I can just fight with him. He fought decisively. But I don't know what kind of person Zhang Han is?" Zhang Liang said: "I heard that he was a general in Lishan and was responsible for building the Daling of Yingzheng for a long time. When Zhang Chu's army reached Lishan, II Then worship him as your general.”
Yingbu, Huanchu and others laughed after hearing this and said: "It seems that there is really no one in the Qin State. Otherwise, how could a general be allowed to lead the army?" Zhang Liang said: "Yes, if General Xiang follows When the Qin army fought, Zhang Han encountered a strong enemy! But as far as I know, Zhang Han is also very good at using troops. Since he was ordered to fight against Zhang Chu's army, he defeated Zhang Chu's army in the theater. Zhou Wen retreated steadily, and finally Withdrew from Hangu Pass. After Zhang Han left the pass, he defeated Wu Guang's army and occupied Chencheng, which caused the uprising in Shandong to enter a low ebb. Now only General Xiang can turn the tide. I heard that when King Zhang Chu revolted, , once used the name of your Lord to call on the people. Now, why don’t the general obey the people’s wishes and also use the name of your Lord to call on the people? Then the people of Chu will definitely look to the wind and vote, and those who respond will gather. This will Form a powerful force to resist Qin." Xiang Liang was overjoyed after hearing Zhang Liang's statement, and immediately ordered Ying Bu, Pu Jiang, Huan Chu, Yu Ying, Ding Gong, Xue Gong, Xiang Zhuang, Xiang Lun, and Xiang Ta to , Xiang Guan and other ten generals listened to the order. When these ten people heard Xiang Liang's call, they stood up from the banquet and lined up in the center of the hall. Xiang Liang ordered them: "Tomorrow morning, ten of you will go to help General Liu recover Fengyi. I will also personally lead the army to fight Zhang Han!" The ten generals replied in a very loud voice: "I will obey the general's order." !”
Early the next morning, Xiang Liang came to the school field early to order troops. Xiang Jun's officers and soldiers lined up in a very neat queue waiting to set off. Pei Gong said goodbye to Xiang Liang: "General Xiang's kindness is as great as a mountain, and I am so grateful that I can't help but shed tears. If Fengyi is captured, I will return your troops and horses immediately. We will see you later!" Xiang Liang also said, "We will see you later." He invited Pei Gong. Set off. Peigong then got on a chariot and led the army to set off. He was very happy all the way because what he borrowed this time was not only soldiers, but also hope. He saw Xiang Liang's strong appeal. In the future, Xiang Liang may be the backbone of the resistance against Qin. With this power in Chu, Zhang Han has nothing to fear. When Pei Gong thought of this, he felt extremely happy.
In Fengyi City, Wei generals Zhang Shuo and Yong Chi had not seen Pei Gong coming to attack in the past few days, and they felt increasingly panicked. One day, Zhang Shuo said to Yong Chi: "General, you guarded Fengyi for the Wei Kingdom. Your contribution is not small. After King Wei defeats Zhang Han, I will state your contribution in front of the king. I must let the king I will give you an official rank." Yong Chi said: "General, please rest assured, since I, Yong Chi, have decided to defend the land for Wei, I will definitely be loyal to Wei. However, Liu Bang will not attack the city these days. I always feel something is wrong. He is really difficult to deal with!" Zhang said with a smile and said: "You are worrying too much. We have his family in our hands. If he comes again, I will tie his wife to the city wall and humiliate him. After a while, hehe! Let’s see if Liu Bang dares to attack the city? Haha!” Before the laughter stopped, someone suddenly flew to report the disaster. The visitor panted and said that a troop of troops had descended from the city. Zhang Shuo and Yong Chi were shocked when they heard the report, and hurried to the top of the city to take a look.
It turned out that Wei general Han Hu came with his troops to help in the battle. Zhang Shuo and Yong Chi were very happy after hearing this, and they welcomed Han Hu into the city together. When Han Hu came to the city, Yong Chi told him about Pei Gong's attack on Fengyi a few days ago. Unexpectedly, when Han Hu heard this, he raised his eyebrows and glared: "Liu Bang is just a small pavilion chief. This time I was ordered by the King of Wei to come to defend Fengyi. If Liu Bang dares to come, I will give him his head Move, or I will never be called Tiger again!" Han Hu looked like a big fat pig with a fat belly and white face without a beard. But Yong Chi shook his head and said: "Sima Yi was defeated by Liu Bang twice. I'm worried that the general can't defeat him!" When Han Hu heard this, he suddenly changed his color, overturned the table, and yelled: "Don't build up other people's ambitions and destroy your own prestige! If Liu Bang comes, I will definitely cut off his head!" "Report!" Suddenly a sound of reporting came in a hurry, followed by another rush of footsteps, and a Wei soldier He ran into the hall and said in a panic: "Report to the general, there is a troop of soldiers and horses coming from the southeast under the banners of 'Liu' and 'Xiang'." Yong Chi had a look of fear on his face. Han Hu said disapprovingly: "Whether it's Liu or Wang, whoever dares to come will have their heads chopped off!" Everyone hurried to the east city gate to watch. I saw a huge cavalry sweeping towards the open Fengyi City. I saw two people sitting on a chariot in the middle, one majestic, like a proud king. When I got closer, I realized that he was Liu Bang, the Duke of Pei, and the other was the extraordinary stable general Zhang Liang. The two of them rode in a tall and sturdy chariot. On both sides of the vehicle were Yingbu and others. When everyone came to the city, Pei Gong signaled and slowly stopped the troops. I saw the soldiers eager to try, and the horses kicked the ground and neighed.
When Yong Chi saw that Pei Gong had a large number of people, he was already panicking. Han Hu didn't care, so he immediately organized his army to fight. He led a group of Wei soldiers to the outside of the city aggressively, spread out the soldiers and horses, then waved his spear, stared like a hungry wolf, turned his livid face, pointed at Pei Gong and cursed: "Sishang Village Husband! Peidi child! Fengyi is the capital of the late king of Wei State. Why do you come here to rob it?" Pei Gong said angrily: "Fengyi is the country of my parents and the place where I grew up. How can I tolerate you? These Wei dogs are here to run wild? Do you know who I invited today?" "Who? Could it be the King of Heaven?" Han Hu looked at Yingbu and others beside Pei Gong with great disdain. Pei Gong sneered and said, "Have you ever heard of Ying Bu, the heroic warrior who came out of Xianyang in the past and killed the 'four sons of the royal family'?" Han Hu laughed wildly, and then said, "I have never heard of it!" Yong Chi said. He reminded: "General Han, in the past there was a man who came out from Afang Palace in Xianyang to rebel against the generals. He passed through the pass and killed the generals all the way, and went straight out of Hangu Pass. Have you really not heard of this?" Han Hu said casually: "I've never heard of it." Yong Chi said: "The person Pei Gong invited now is the Yingbu who came from Xianyang!" Han Hu laughed and said, "Even if Liu Bang moved here a thief, hahaha! A thief. ! I was about to learn this thing, who is he? Come out and fight quickly?" Yingbu raised his iron halberd and walked out of the position, saying: "Bold madman, Lord Ting is here!" Han Hu laughed and said : "Even if you are a gangster, I will catch you, look at the spear!" After saying that, he slapped his horse to kill Yingbu. Without saying a word, Yingbu raised his weapon and stabbed Han Hu. The two did not fight for three rounds before Yingbu knocked Han Hu off his horse with a halberd, and another halberd ended his life. When the Wei army saw that their general had been killed, they hurriedly came to snatch the body. When Duke Pei saw that General Wei was dead, he took the opportunity to wave his flag, and the soldiers went to the city to kill him. Before the Wei soldiers could enter the city gate, Yong Chi shouted: "Close the city gate quickly!" Wei General Zhang said that when he saw Han Hu was killed, he was panicked and at a loss. When he saw Pei Gong coming to attack the city, he used his force again. Using his usual trick, he quickly tied Pei Gong's family to the top of the city again.
