At the old site of Zhaocheng, Luo Ling is still on his way here, and Luo Yi and Xiang Liang are here to take charge of the overall situation.
The reason why the alliance was chosen here was naturally because it wanted to worship King Su here and use it as a banner to gather the rebels. If it didn't do this, it would be unfair.
The rebel leaders from all over the world gathered here, and the troops were scattered in the surrounding cities. After all, this place was now in ruins, and it was impossible to provide food for so many troops.
In the camp, Luo Yi and Xiang Liang sat opposite each other. Xiang Liang said excitedly: "Sir, there have been dozens of princes going to the alliance these days, and hundreds of thousands of troops have gathered. Such an army is probably enough to compete with Bao Qin competed against each other."
Luo Yi thought deeply: "Eldest brother went to persuade Zhao Tuo to stand on his own. If it succeeds, then Bao Qin will lose one of his arms. Then our army will be enough to fight Bao Qin. We still have to wait for eldest brother to come back. Thousands of armies are easy to get, but one general is hard to find." , the princes are all good and bad, and I am afraid they are no match for Zhang Han and Meng Tian."
At this time, a voice came from outside the tent, and then a soldier hurriedly walked in and said: "Young Master, Duke Chu, Cheng, a descendant of the Korean royal family, is asking for an audience with Prime Minister Zhang Liang."
Xiang Liang already had an old relationship with Zhang Liang. Hearing this, he quickly said, "Please come in quickly."
Then he said to Luo Yi with surprise on his face: "Master Yi, although I don't know who this Han Cheng is, Zhang Liang is not an ordinary person. He assassinated the First Emperor in the past and caused a massacre in the world for ten days. This is a real man. And he has a good plan in his heart. Apart from your eldest brother Ling, there is probably no one in the world who can surpass him."
Luo Yi didn't expect Xiang Liang to have such a high opinion of Zhang Liang. Knowing that his eldest brother Ling was like a god to Luo Yi, he immediately became interested.
Han Cheng and Zhang Liang walked into the camp together and saw Luo Yi first. As soon as they saw the sacred mark, they knew that he was a direct son.
Xiang Liang stepped forward and held Zhang Liang's hand and said, "Zifang, I haven't seen you for many years. How are you?"
Zhang Liang laughed loudly and said: "Good morning, Liang An. Thank you very much for your concern, Mr. Chu. Now Liang is running around for Korea. Although his body is tired, when he comes back from his dream at midnight, he feels energized by the thought of his ancestor's reputation."
For a son of a family like Zhang Liang, his actions are inevitably burdened by the family's reputation, which even drives his actions.
When Han Cheng heard this, he said with emotion: "The Zhang family has been in the Han Dynasty for five generations. The ovary has the power to reach heaven, but it helps him to succeed. He works hard for success. How can he be virtuous? It's just the virtue accumulated by his ancestors."
When Luo Yi and Xiang Liang heard this, they immediately had a strong impression of Zhang Liang, especially Xiang Liang. He had always known that Zhang Liang worked tirelessly to restore Korea, which was exactly the same as him in the past.
Even now, Xiang Liang still wants to revive the Chu Kingdom, but he is Xiang Chu, not Xiong Chu.
So he reached out and patted Zhang Liang's arm and praised: "Zifang is really loyal. He lives up to the reputation of his ancestors. He is a good man."
Zhang Liang said with a smile: "The Zhang family has only been in the Han Dynasty for five generations. How can it be compared with the Xiang family who served as the minister of Chu in the 800s? Compared with the Luo family who has been in charge of the state for thousands of years, it is even less worth mentioning."
Zhang Liang's words were very wonderful. Although he said that the Zhang family was not worth mentioning, he equated his family's loyalty with the Xiang family and the Luo family. This not only complimented the Xiang family and the Luo family, but also elevated himself. , what a quick thinker.
The four of them talked for a short time before Luo Yi was impressed by Zhang Liang. Zhang Liang's analysis of the world situation was actually 70% similar to Luo Ling's. This already made Luo Yi feel that Zhang Liang was very impressive.
"Young Master, Duke of Chu, has risen up against Qin since King Chen, and heroes from all over the country have joined forces. However, judging from Liang's point of view, the most powerful people in the world are still descendants of the royal families of the six kings. If the alliance can restore the kingdoms, they will definitely be able to Clean up people’s hearts.”
Zhang Liang wanted to use the power of the Luo family and the Xiang family to restore Korea, but what he said was reasonable. Although Chen Sheng and Wu Guang sent out inspiring princes and generals, Ning had the guts.
But judging from the actual situation, these nobles from the six countries still have strong appeal and reputation, and they also have considerable financial and social resources. Once chaos breaks out, they can immediately gather powerful forces to stir up the storm.
There are many rebel princes who have come here, and they have gathered Luo Yi, an old member of King Chen's army. The rebels wanted to call him Luo Gong, but Luo Yi said that he was not the head of the family, and his eldest brother's tomb was on the way, so he could not be called Luo Gong, so He is called the Young Master.
Then there are Chu Gong Xiang Liang, Qi Wang Lu Cheng, Jiaodong Wang Lu Qian, Wei Wang Wei Jiu, Liang Wang Liang Che, Yan Wang Zhao Nuo, Zhao Wang Zhao Xie, Dai Wang Chen Li, Pei Gong Liu Bang, in addition to the host Luo Apart from the Xiang clan and the Xiang clan, these eight are the strongest among the rebels.
Among them, the King of Qi and the King of Jiaodong are both descendants of the duke clan of the Qi State, and they are brothers. They can be regarded as distant clan clans. King Wei Jiu is the most noble among them, a genuine son of the Wei State. The King of Liang can be regarded as a duke of the Wei State. After the capital of the Wei Kingdom moved to Daliang, he took Liang as his surname and had been secretly competing with Wei Jiu.
Zhao Xie was also a noble of the Zhao Kingdom. After the fall of the Zhao Kingdom, he became the patriarch of the Zhao family, and his status was very noble.
Only the Yan State was completely wiped out due to the assassination of Qin Shihuang. Zhao Nuo was a noble of the Yan State, somewhat similar to the Xiang family's status in the Chu State. Of course, it was far less prominent than the Xiang family.
Among these rebels, the only one with a humble status was Peigong Liu Bang.
These people have many capable people under their command, but they are still willing to regard these old aristocrats as kings. The remnants of aristocratic politics have not been completely eliminated, and many heroes still recognize the natural nobility of these people.
Xiang Liang already had an old relationship with Zhang Liang, and this was his original intention, so he agreed directly. Zhang Liang couldn't help crying when he heard this, and Xiang Liang comforted him upon seeing this.
Zhang Liang said: "In the past when Korea was destroyed, Liang and Gongzi Fei left separately. Later I learned that Gongzi Fei died in Qin. Over the years, I have been working tirelessly to restore the country of Korea. Now I finally see the outline, and I will be able to meet him in Huangquan in the future. Ancestor, the only thing left to do next is to kill the violent Qin. The enemy of the country and the family hates each other, so Liang must settle the score with the violent Qin."
Talking about the violent Qin Dynasty, Zhang Liang gritted his teeth with hatred. This is the biggest difference between the survivors of the Six Kingdoms and ordinary powerful people. The hatred between the powerful people of the Six Kingdoms and the Qin Dynasty is not that deep. It is mainly because of the pressure of life and the general trend. They have to go against it, and these Six Kingdoms have no choice but to rebel against the general trend. The remnants of the country are really enemies of the country and the family, and they are the most hardcore anti-Qin force.
Luo Yi heard the words and said in the same way: "We must not only punish the violent Qin Dynasty, but also practice the law and completely trample the set of Qin laws implemented by Shang Yang in the Qin State into the ground, so that all kings will take it as their example." Quit.”
As more and more people gathered, Xiang Yu arrived with his disciples from Jiangdong. The news that he had sent Meng Tian to retreat in Zhengdi also came back. The rebels were surprised by his bravery. It was really hard to imagine how he could defeat him. But Xiang's reputation has improved again in the hearts of everyone.
However, when they saw Xiang Yu looking forward to Shenfei, his shining eyes, and his majestic figure, everyone sighed that he must be a hero.
After Xiang Yu arrived at Zhaocheng, he immediately came to the camp and asked: "Sir, has Duke Ziling arrived yet? Should we start the alliance directly? Now Zhang Han and Meng Tian are leading an army to attack Shandong. The situation is critical. We can’t waste any time, you are also a direct descendant of the Luo family, and you are enough to represent the Luo family.”
Xiang Yu's military talent is undoubted. Although he defeated Meng Tian's forward army in Zheng Di, he was keenly aware that the Great Wall Corps brought by Meng Tian was really brave. He could only kill dozens of people in each battle. Not even a hundred people.
Luo Yi pondered for a moment and thought that Xiang Yu was right. Anyway, Luo's role was to preside over the alliance and use the name of King Su and Luo's prestige to rally the heroes. The real main force was the Xiang family and the soldiers from Chu.
The heroes of Shandong came to the camp with their trusted followers and personal guards. They sat down according to the number of troops. The top seat was empty. Xiang Liang sat on the left, Luo Yi sat on the right, and Xiang Yu sat on the bottom seat. , he repelled Meng Tian's attack and was now the only person to defeat the regiment led by the Qin general. He gained great prestige among the rebels.
Luo Yi had a solemn look on his face, then took out a bronze bell and struck it slowly. The bronze bell even had a large amount of rust on it.
"Everyone, this is the bronze bell struck by our ancestor Wen Gong during the alliance at Qiyan in the past. At that time, all the eastern princes of Zhou Dynasty gathered under the command of Song Gong and Qi Hou, and worked together to protect the state of Bang Zhou. , I took out this clock today and hope that we and other heroes from Shandong can inherit it and work together to defeat the violent Qin Dynasty."
The Qiyan Alliance was the starting point of Luo Wengong's regency and played an extremely important role in the entire history of Zhuxia.
The inheritance of history has always been a great force. As soon as this ritual vessel from a thousand years ago was taken out, the tent was filled with solemnity, and everyone listened attentively to the clanging sound.
Luo Yi tapped lightly, then stopped and said loudly: "May King Su be with us!"
Everyone was from Shandong, and of course they knew that this was Luo's highest blessing. They all looked shocked, lowered their heads, crossed their hands and said loudly together: "May King Su be with us!"
King Su and Luo complement each other. In fact, King Su is not the only saint king that has ever appeared in this world.
Which of the Three Kings and Five Emperors is not famous? Which one is not full of meritorious deeds and does not look like a human being?
But only King Su can achieve such a status, not only because King Su is indeed too miraculous, but also because King Su's descendants are so reliable.
The other saint princes and descendants are completely ordinary people, which will only make people feel that these people are not worthy of being the descendants of the saint king. However, the descendants of King Su make people feel from generation to generation that these are the descendants of the saint king, his descendants. They are all such saints, so how great must it be to be the source of everything and worshiped by all descendants?
Luo Yi was about to announce the start of the alliance and would take a group of people to the ancestral temple at the old site of Zhaocheng to worship King Su.
Suddenly he heard the sound of horses stepping on the ground and entering the camp. After thinking for a moment, he knew that it must be his eldest brother coming back, otherwise the guards here would be so tight that no one else would be able to get in.
He quickly stood up from his position and ran out of the tent. Sure enough, dozens of people from Luo Ling's party came back after a long journey, but the days of traveling did not damage Luo Ling's style in the slightest.
Luo Yi shouted with joy: "Brother!"
Luo Ling got off his horse and patted Luo Yi on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "A Yi, good boy, I heard about your deeds on the bank of the river. You are really majestic."
Hearing this, Luo Yi covered his face and said, "Brother, please don't tease me. The alliance is about to begin. All the heroes from Shandong have already arrived. Brother, your place has been reserved. I thought you wouldn't be able to come back."
Luo Ling smiled and said: "The ancestors approved of my approach, so it is not difficult to destroy the violent Qin. The key is the arrangements after the destruction of Qin. With these heroes gathering together, I want to take a good look at the heroes of the world, and of course I must rush back as soon as possible."
"Lord Luo!"
"Hello, Public Security Bureau Luo!"
The heroes in the big tent came out to greet Luo Ling, the head of the Luo family. Luo Ling responded one by one, and everyone gathered around Luo Ling to sit down at the main seat.
Luo Ling was not familiar with everyone, so Luo Yi introduced him one by one. After Luo Ling knew everyone's identities, Luo Yi said again: "Gentlemen, the eldest brother did not come here before because he went to South Vietnam to talk about Zhao Tuo."
Zhao Tuo!
Everyone was immediately shocked. He was a general who controlled 500,000 soldiers of the Qin Dynasty. If he led the army back, the consequences might be real.
Perhaps the soldiers in the Southern Expedition Corps will directly return to their homeland to fight against Qin. If so, the strength of the rebel army will be greatly strengthened.
But they are also likely to still obey Qin's laws and become the executioners who suppress the rebels. If they really become the opponents of the rebels, plus Zhang Han and Meng Tian, Qin's strength will be so powerful that they can't find a way to survive.
Luo Ling was straightforward, without wasting everyone's time, and said straight to the point: "You don't need to worry. Ling went to convince Zhao Tuo that he would close the road to the Central Plains and open up the kingdom of Zhu Xia in the land of Baiyue. What he wanted What he wants is that after the world is stabilized, the Emperor of the Central Plains canonizes him as the King of South Vietnam, and he is willing to surrender the whole country."
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this. It would be good to stay in South Vietnam. At least they don't have to face unknown consequences. As for a throne, it's nothing. There are now six or seven kings here, plus Fusu's enfeoffment. King, there are too many kings in this world, so making him the King of South Vietnam is nothing.
Especially since South Vietnam was conquered by others, it would be a great deal for the whole country to surrender and be crowned king.
However, everyone once again had a new understanding of Luo Ling, the head of the Luo family. He was truly worthy of the praise of the young master. He entered South Vietnam alone and was able to convince Zhao Tuo, the commander of 500,000 soldiers, not to go north. There are so many thrills and wisdom that ordinary people cannot understand.
Seeing that everyone felt at ease, Luo Ling said again: "The purpose of all the gentlemen gathered here is self-evident, which is to kill the violent Qin.
The people of the world have been oppressed by Bao Qin for too long. I would like to ask the leaders of the world, is there anyone who does not want Bao Qin to perish?
The First Emperor was a single husband, and Hu Hai was also a single husband. Their cruelty could not be tolerated even by King Su, who was above the Nine Heavens.
Since the fall of Zhou Dynasty, King Su has never paid attention to the affairs of the world. However, after the unification of Bao Qin, he told me in a dream that Bao Qin's laws are too cruel and Bao Qin must not be allowed to exist anymore.
The crime of tyrannizing the Qin Dynasty lies with Dufu. If he cannot overthrow the tyrannical Qin Dynasty, he will not be able to face his ancestors.
As for the hatred for the destruction of the country and the destruction of the family, compared with King Su's desire to trample on the laws of Qin, it can only be regarded as attachment. "
Luo Ling directly expressed his attitude. This was not only the hatred of Luo's country and family, but also the existence of a country where King Su did not allow such laws as Tyrannical Qin, so Luo would definitely fight to the end.
If you join the alliance, you must stand completely opposite to the Qin Dynasty. Don't think about the two sides, otherwise the Luo family will never let you go.
Basically, those who come here cannot coexist with the violent Qin Dynasty, so naturally there is nothing wrong with it, and the only Liu Bang naturally follows the trend.
When Luo Ling saw this, he said: "On the way to Ling, I heard that Fusu had consecrated various kings in Xianyang, and that Handan King Zhang Han and Linzi King Meng Tian had led their armies to defeat many rebel armies."
Many people present looked a bit unhappy. Han Cheng and Wei Jiu even hid their faces directly. Both of them were Zhang Han's defeated generals. Zhao Xie heard this and said: "Luo Gong, now Zhang Han is preparing to attack Zhao. Will you?" After the alliance is over, I will go to battle with Zhang Han. I really can't delay it any longer. I will help Su to grant the kings and win the hearts of the Qin people, so that many people have given up their thoughts of resisting the violent Qin."
This is what everyone is most worried about. Fusu is not a one-man husband like the First Emperor, nor a fool like Hu Hai. He still has prestige and is willing to share power, which gives him a large number of supporters, at least not the previous ones. The whole world is in rebellion.
Unexpectedly, Luo Ling smiled directly and said: "Prince Zhao Xie, you are really worrying too much. Could it be that the cruelty of the Qin Dynasty was just the result of the emperor? It was jointly promoted by the officials of the entire Qin State from top to bottom. .
It's like a rushing torrent. Can one person stop its flow? Do you think that Fusu, using his position as a prince to gain the hearts and minds of the great nobles, can make those lower-level subordinates obey orders?
He enfeoffed all the kings, and these princes had to lead the Qin people eastward. Instead of reducing the burden on the people of the world, it became even heavier. As long as the Qin people's offensive was thwarted or even defeated, the situation of the entire world would be reversed in an instant. . "
Luo Ling's words were shocking. When everyone thought about it, it was indeed the case. Luo Ling said again: "It doesn't matter if Fusu is granted the title of prince. How can the heroes of Shandong be comparable to those of him? What he relies on is nothing more than Zhang Han and Meng Tian." , hoping that these two people could put down the rebellion for him, but this was simply a dream.
As long as we work together to defeat Zhang Han and Meng Tian, we can defeat Hedong, Hangu Pass, and Wuguan at the same time, and it will be easy to overthrow the violent Qin. "
Yes, in the past, when Hangu Pass was the most powerful pass in the world, if all the countries in Shandong worked together, they could still break through it. Not to mention that now, with the erosion of the rivers, Hangu Pass is no longer the type where one man can pass ten thousand people. Fumo opened the natural danger.
"I also ask Luo Gong to take charge of the overall situation. I am willing to respect you as my co-master, accept your grant, and obey your orders."
As the first person said this, several heroes were also willing to accept Luo Ling as their co-leader.
Xiang Liang knew in his heart that Luo Ling would definitely refuse.
Sure enough, Luo Ling immediately said: "Gentlemen, Luo Shi presided over the alliance to defeat the violent Qin Dynasty, but not to make Luo Shi the new emperor. We make an agreement here.
The first person to enter Guanzhong will be crowned king in Guanzhong, and the person who contributed the most to the destruction of the Qin Dynasty will be the co-leader. This must be very reasonable. "
[Your family's political credibility has increased, and your family's attraction to Wang Zuo's talents has decreased. 】
Everyone's eyes lit up immediately. Luo Ling's meaning was very clear. What Bao Qin relied on now was the army of Zhang Han and Meng Tian. If he could defeat these two people and his contribution was so great, it would be very reasonable for such a person to be the co-leader.
Entering Guanzhong is also very important. It can cut off the support and supplies of the Qin army in the Central Plains. This is also a great achievement. It is reasonable to call the king of Guanzhong, and I am afraid that few people dare to lead the army directly to Guanzhong. After all, once Zhang Han and Meng Tian return An attack would result in the total annihilation of the entire army.
Xiang Yu asked excitedly: "Luo Gong, what if he is the one who has made the greatest contribution and is also the first to enter Guanzhong?"
Luo Ling immediately said: "If he made the greatest contribution in the process of overthrowing the Qin Dynasty and also conquered Guanzhong, how could anyone in the world who had been oppressed by the violent Qin not be grateful for his kindness?
For such a benevolent hero to the world, everyone in the world should surrender to him. Is there any other way to express respect and love for him besides the title of King of Guanzhong and co-lord of the world? "
Luo Ling said this because he wanted to tell everyone that those who destroyed Bao Qin would gain great reputation, because Bao Qin's reputation was really bad.
But everyone obviously did not understand this level. What they thought was that the king of Guanzhong and the co-lord of the world, wouldn't that be the emperor of Zhou when Bangzhou was the most powerful?
The most important thing is that the Luo family still maintains the tradition of thousands of years. When everyone recommended Luo Ling to be the co-leader, he gave up. This means that the Luo family still does not want to rule the world, which makes many people feel... Strange thoughts.
Especially Zhang Liang, he is keenly aware that although it seems that the Xiang family and the Luo family are allies, this is still uncertain. Who said that the Luo family can only form an alliance with the Xiang family, and the Luo family is not just one Man, isn't Luo Yi very close to Pei Gong and Liu Bang?
Luo Ling looked at Xiang Yu and saw that Xiang Yu also had an excited look on his face. He obviously didn't understand the meaning of his words and shook his head slightly. He looked at the people in the tent one by one and only saw a few people deep in thought.
Pei Gong, who was relatively friendly with A Yi, had a twinkle in his eye, staring at Zhang Liang closely, and looking at Luo Yi from time to time. He seemed a little out of place with the others, which made Luo Ling become slightly attracted to him.
After establishing the reward, Luo Ling still arranged the direction of attack for everyone. Zhang Han and Meng Tian's attack would eventually have to be faced, but Luo Ling boasted that his army was unparalleled. Inherently brave.
The Luo family still has a group of brave warriors in hand, but Luo Ling is not ready to put these directly into the battlefield, because in his opinion, they are actually useless. These people are the children of Luo Ling who will later build a family as a guard.
————
The Zhaocheng Alliance was a very special alliance. First of all, it perfectly organized the anti-Qin forces in Shandong. From this aspect, the alliance was very successful. However, due to the Luo family's insistence that "the Luo family is not king" In terms of political principles, as the host of the alliance, Luo did not take the opportunity to seize the supreme power. This was the second time that Luo voluntarily gave up the opportunity to become the supreme ruler after King Su. From ancient times to the present, it is unprecedented in Chinese and foreign history. ——"The Destruction of the Empire·Qin"
I haven't been feeling well for a day since I got home. I'm exhausted.
