Kuaiji County.
In the governor's house, Xiang Liang, a man with a big horse and a golden sword, was sitting directly on the governor's seat. Below him stood Xiang Yu and a group of warriors. The legs of the governor of Kuaiji County were shaking uncontrollably.
As a high-ranking official of Da Qin, there was a group of people who wanted to rebel sitting in the mansion, and they were also looking at him eagerly.
He forced himself to cheer up, "I am the governor of Kuaiji appointed by His Majesty the First Emperor. Even if I die today, I will leave a reputation of loyalty in the history books."
Then he saw a young man walking in from outside, with a red dot carved between his eyebrows.
Stigma?
A direct descendant of the Luo family is actually alive!
This made him a little dumbfounded. The world's historians came out of the Luo family. Even the historians in the palace of the Qin Dynasty, although they were the historians of the Duke of Qin, they still missed the Luo family in their hearts. Now that he was standing on the opposite side of the Luo family, how could he still be recorded in the history books? Leave a good name?
Even if the historian writes in a straight line, as long as he is in a bad mood and uses Chunqiu's writing style to describe it in two sentences, he can turn into a clown who hinders the restoration of the Luo Kingdom.
"Xiang Gong, the eldest brother came with a message. The Qin army defeated King Chen's army and then defeated King Wei's army. Several rebel armies were being hunted. The three brothers also rescued King Chen's army on the bank of the river. The defeated army, totaling tens of thousands of people, is retreating towards Zheng. We can go and make peace with the three brothers, and then contact the other kings to form an alliance to attack the Qin Dynasty."
When Xiang Liang heard this, he cupped his hands and said, "According to Duke Ziling's words, Kuaiji County is in the hands of the Xiang family. He gathered eight thousand elite troops and marched north to destroy the violent Qin Dynasty.
Today, I will first cut off the head of the county guard for Duke Ziling as proof. "
"Eight thousand elite soldiers? This is absolutely impossible!"
The county guard didn't even care about the fact that he was about to be killed, and said silently.
The eight thousand elite soldiers in Xiang Liang's words completely shocked him. Under his rule, an old aristocratic tycoon was able to pull out eight thousand elite soldiers. This meant that Xiang was just teasing him in the past few days. , Kuaiji County was never in his hands.
Xiang Liang just glanced at him lightly when he heard this, "You are a feudal official in name, but in fact you are a subordinate of the Legalists. You are superstitious about the laws of Qin. How do you know what the people below think? Don't say eight Thousands, as long as I can destroy the violent Qin Dynasty, 80,000 or 800,000 people can be at my command.
Chen Sheng was just a farmer. He raised his arms and everyone responded. The Xiang family had been rooted in the land of Jiangdong for hundreds of years. Their kindness was widespread, but the Qin Dynasty was not considerate. Now when he climbed up to sing, Songs of Chu spread everywhere. What is impossible? "
The Legalists believe that what they practice is the righteous way. The obviously derogatory term "subordinate" is what the Legalists hate the most, especially the Confucians, their mortal enemy, who likes to use this term to slander them.
The governor wanted to speak after hearing this, but Xiang Yu stepped forward and grabbed him by the neck. He lifted him up with a gentle lift. Compared to Ding, lifting someone up was as easy as eating and drinking. Xiang Yu looked at his hands. The struggling county guard snorted coldly and fell hard, bleeding to death immediately from all his orifices.
Xiang Yu took the cloth and wiped his hands as if he were killing a chicken. Xiang Liang asked: "Sir, why didn't Duke Ziling come? Isn't Duke Ziling planning to go to the Central Plains?"
Luo Xinyan said with a smile: "Brother is also in the Central Plains. The eldest brother has gone to do more important things. Have you forgotten that in the south of Chu, Bao Qin still has hundreds of thousands of troops? If you let them go, let Xianyang transfer them back. , it must be detrimental to the rebel army’s crusade against Qin.”
Xiang Liang said bitterly when he heard this: "You are talking about Zhao Tuo's southern army. Most of them are Chu people, but now they are fighting with swords and guns.
Alas, the Qin Dynasty destroyed six kings and the Luo Kingdom was dispersed. Only the Chu Kingdom was the strongest. Ying Zheng was wary and deliberately conquered South Vietnam to consume Chu's local strength. Until now, no one knows how many Chu people buried their bones in the mountains and forests and Gusu City. There are still large areas of wilderness outside, and the miasma-ridden areas in South Vietnam are really worthless. If the Xiang family can become the master of the world, they will definitely treat the Chu people well and give the Chu people fertile land for farming. "
Luo Xin was noncommittal. Of course, he didn't agree with Xiang Liang's words. It was still important to open up new territories and expand territory.
However, what Xiang Liang said is not a big problem. There are still large areas of wasteland that have not been developed in Chu State. It is indeed unnecessary to directly expand areas where there is no profit. The right way is to proceed slowly, develop the population, and continue to encroach.
"Gong Xiang is such a kind elder. With you here, I believe that after the fall of Qin, the world's leading officials in Guizhou will live in a royal way. This must be the greatest blessing, right?"
Xiang Liang just laughed when he heard this. On his left was Xiang Yu, and on his right was Luo Xin. He strode towards the courtyard. Many people had gathered here, most of them were powerful people from Chu. Among the countries, there were Luo and Chu. The country's resistance was the most intense and it was unwilling to accept Qin's rule.
Xiang Liang walked to the door, looked at everyone and said loudly: "Everyone, in the past, Qin State killed all the kings of our Chu people. This was the hatred of the country. Qin State also killed my father. This is the hatred of the family. Hatred, with such hatred, can the Xiang family live peacefully under the rule of Qin?
It must be impossible. The only thing the Xiang family can do is to expel the violent Qin and regain the Chu State. The flag of the Chu State will be unfurled among the Xia kingdoms again, and the thousand-year-old ancestral temple will be re-established in the capital of Ying. "
Someone immediately said: "Gong Xiang, your family has been the ministers of Chu for generations and has a great reputation in Chu. If we don't obey your orders, do we have any other choice?"
It is said that Chen Sheng of the Central Plains became king, and the rebel armies from all walks of life sought out the descendants of the Six Kingdoms to become kings and establish themselves as kings. You should also become king, so that you can communicate with all the rebel armies on an equal footing. "
No one mentioned looking for the descendants of Chu's royal family to become the king. For one thing, most of the real royal families of Chu died after the fall of the country, and the rest were also captured and slowly died in Xianyang City.
Secondly, the main purpose of establishing the descendants of the Six Kingdoms is to use the banner to win people's hearts. After all, in this era, the princes, generals and ministers were born to be nobles. They were all descendants of the three kings and five emperors, and ordinary people were completely incomparable.
But the Xiang family and the Luo family don't need it. With the influence of these two families in Chu and Zhuxia, there is no need to borrow the banner of others. Even if the real descendants of the Chu royal family stand here, I am afraid that except for the Xiang family, Besides, no one will pay attention to him.
The huge influence of the Xiang family was the fundamental reason for the depression in the later period. The King of Chu often hesitated between worrying about the Xiang family's betrayal and needing the Xiang family.
So with the support of everyone and the witness of Luo Xin, Xiang Liang re-established the Great Chu, named King Su, and invited heroes in the Central Plains to discuss the crusade against Qin.
Luo Ling sat in a carriage and wandered along the narrow path in the mountains. The more he looked at the surrounding terrain, the more satisfied Luo Ling became, and he became more confident in persuading Zhao Tuo.
