"Now that our army is at its peak, we can capture Yingchuan County just around the corner!"
Zhang Liang saw Liu Ji's expression, and with his wisdom, he didn't know what Liu Ji was thinking in his heart at this moment, so he took advantage of the situation and said.
"Why don't we follow the trend and capture Yingchuan in one fell swoop?"
After Liu Ji heard Zhang Liang's words, a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes, revealing a heart-wrenching expression as if it were easy to find someone who could easily find someone with a lot of money.
"Yes, brother, the celebration banquet may be held at another date. If someone else takes the lead and becomes the king, we will suffer a huge loss."
"There is no time for this celebration banquet. It won't be too late to hold it again when the big brother in Guanzhong is king."
At this moment, a tall, rugged-looking man stood up and said to Liu Ji.
"Yes, yes! Nowadays, whoever enters Guanzhong first is more important. It doesn't matter if we don't hold this celebration banquet!"
"If Xiang Yu is allowed to enter Guanzhong early, it will be troublesome!"
Seeing Zhang Liang and Fan Kuai saying this, others understood what Pei Gong meant and agreed one after another.
"It doesn't matter, now all the princes are watching with eager eyes. The situation is indeed quite tense."
"Since everyone has said so, we have to be unkind. Then we will postpone the celebration banquet, but I will keep your contribution in mind. When we enter Guanzhong in the future, we will reward you on a regular basis."
Seeing that everyone around him was so understanding, Liu Ji couldn't help but nodded with satisfaction.
"General Han, will the rebel Liu Ji really attack our Yingchuan County in the near future?"
Two days later, on a city near Yingchuan County, the governor of Yingchuan County curiously asked Han Xin who was standing on the top of the city wall.
Is it possible that the other party will not attack elsewhere? Why is it his Yingchuan County?
"Well, he will definitely come in the next few days."
Han Xin nodded solemnly.
This Yingchuan County is the most convenient route to Xianyang. For a person like Liu Ji who loves false fame, he must fight for the title of 'King of Guanzhong', and this place must be the place he wants to fight for.
"coming!"
"It's so fast. It seems that I have underestimated Liu Ji's eagerness to become the king."
While Han Xin was chatting with the governor of Yingchuan County, Han Xin saw tens of thousands of troops coming from a distance, heading towards his city with great momentum.
He originally thought that Liu Ji would take a break after taking over a county, but unexpectedly, he couldn't wait to set off after only two days.
This is better!
"Lord Sheriff, I'm going to watch your performance now."
Han Xin bowed his hands towards the Yingchuan County Sheriff.
"No matter what, I will risk my life for Great Qin!"
Seeing that the rebel Liu Ji was really heading towards him, the governor of Yingchuan County sighed helplessly.
"General Han, I leave this life to you, so please take it easy!"
Looking at the mighty appearance of the tens of thousands of troops, and then looking at his own weak body, the Yingchuan County Sheriff was still a little worried and warned Han Xin again.
"Don't worry, I believe Sir Dingbao is fine."
Han Xin promised, patting his chest.
This matter is related to the rest of his career, and there is no room for carelessness.
If the governor of a county really makes a mistake, no matter how great his achievements are, it will be difficult to make up for it.
He must have had complete assurance before he dared to implement this matter.
And the reason why he took such a big risk and went through all kinds of setbacks was because he had his own selfish motives.
After all, the Guanzhong troops are not his direct troops, and they will most likely be taken back after the rebellion is suppressed.
And if he wanted to gain a foothold in Da Qin, how could he not have his own team, so he set his sights on Liu Ji's army.
It would be a waste to follow Liu Ji with such a large army. It would be better to abandon the dark side as soon as possible and surrender to Da Qin as his team.
But this is a rebel army after all, and I don’t know if it will be directly broken up and reorganized by then.
However, given the courage of His Majesty the First Emperor, he might not look down on these things.
After hearing this, the governor of Yingchuan County felt a little relieved. After all, he was a person sent by His Majesty himself, so he should still have some abilities.
I have worked hard for most of my life to climb to my current position. If I were to fail here, it would really be my grandma’s family’s fault.
"I have long heard of Pei Gong's reputation for benevolence and righteousness. Today I have been waiting for Pei Gong to come!"
When Liu Ji's troops arrived at the city, the city was wide open.
Liu Ji, Fan Kuai, Zhang Liang and others also looked at the scene in front of them with some surprise.
"Could it be that this city is just like before, voluntarily abandoning the dark side and turning to the bright side?"
Looking at the city gate wide open, Liu Ji couldn't help but think.
Under the gaze of Liu Ji and others, the Yingchuan County Sheriff, together with Han Xin, led dozens of people out of the city gate and walked towards Liu Ji.
Seeing someone coming from the other party, Fan Kuai quickly walked forward with his confidants, protecting Liu Ji behind him to prevent the other party from sneak attack.
"It's better to meet him than to be famous. The name of Pei Gong is indeed well-deserved."
"I, the Sheriff of Yingchuan County, pay my respects to Mr. Pei."
When he was still a few meters away from Liu Ji, the Yingchuan County Sheriff stopped and bowed to Liu Ji.
"The Sheriff of Yingchuan County?"
Liu Ji, who was protected by Fan Kuai, heard this and stepped forward quickly.
However, for the sake of caution, he still maintained a safe distance from the other party.
The opponent's move was obviously an act of surrender.
Hahaha, could it be that the reputation of Pei Gong is already so great that even the governor of a county came to vote for him?
"Guardian of Yingchuan County? Do you have proof?"
At this moment, Zhang Liang frowned at the person in front of him and asked coldly.
For some reason, he always felt that something was not right, but for the time being, he didn't see much of what was wrong.
"This is my magistrate's seal. I would like to trouble Pei Gong to take a look at it in person."
The Yingchuan County Sheriff was naturally prepared in advance. He took out a seal from his chest and put it on his hand, holding it up with both hands.
Fan Kuai, prompted by Liu Ji's gaze, took a few steps forward, reached out and took the seal, put it in his hand and looked at it for a few times.
It's just that he is a rough man and cannot understand the messy graphics on the pattern.
In desperation, he retreated and handed the seal in his hand to Liu Ji.
After Liu Ji read it, he handed the seal to Zhang Liang who was standing aside.
Seeing Zhang Liang nodding thoughtfully, Liu Ji felt relieved at the moment.
But Zhang Liang was still a little confused at this moment.
Although it all seemed so normal, he still felt a little uneasy inside.
It all seemed to be going a little too smoothly, so smoothly that it was hard for him as a counselor to believe it.
Although Pei Gong has some reputation now, he is still slightly inferior to other princes.
As the governor of a county, even if he really wanted to betray the Qin Dynasty, he had other better choices. Why was he so obligated to surrender to them directly?
This is really a bit abnormal.
