To be honest, Zhao Si was very surprised by Xiang Yu's begging for surrender.
Xiang Yu's character in history is not mentioned for the moment, but he is praised for his aloofness. His final stubbornness was his unwillingness to cross the Yangtze River and was defeated and died.
But at this time, Xiang Yu has declined.
Is it because you are afraid of death?
Zhao Si thinks it is definitely not the case.
Maybe it's because of what Xiang Liang said to Xiang Yu before committing suicide?
"Heh..." Zhao Si sneered.
"Tie them up." Zhao Si waved his hand.
The soldiers heard the sound and obeyed the order, stepped forward and tied him tightly with ropes.
Zhao Si observed that Xiang Yu did not choose to resist. It seemed that he was not pretending to surrender, but there was no fear in his eyes, and he accepted the fact that he was captured calmly and calmly.
So here comes the question. Xiang Yu's personality charm comes from his arrogance, and his biggest personality flaw also comes from his arrogance. Isn't it more shocking for a Xiang Yu who knows how to face humiliation and then become brave?
"How long has it been since you started playing the trick of lying on your back to try your luck?" Zhao Si thought irrationally for no reason, and finally shook his head, only finding it funny.
The fact that the Xiang family is determined to overthrow the Qin State is quite funny in itself.
If it were the Great Qin in the original history, there would be no need to say more, but now history has changed.
Not only did the First Emperor say he was immortal, but he would not have a problem living another thirty or forty years with the aura of raw jade.
Thirty or forty years were enough to roll out policies one by one in Da Qin.
Taxes were lowered, corvees were reduced, and supplemented by high-yielding grains and three kinds of fairy grains with huge yields, plus the reduced price of salt, Xiang Yu did not have the basic plan to imitate the Yue King Gou Jian.
It is a fact that people are stupid and easy to fool, but people are not fools.
Not to mention the future, right now, for the heads of Guizhou who can live a less difficult life with three kinds of immortal food, you can let them scold Qin Shihuang, but if you really pull them to rebel, most of the heads of Guizhou will not be willing to do so.
This group has the power to subvert the destiny bloodline, but only if the living environment of this group is at the end of its rope.
"You like to be brave, don't you..." Zhao Si looked at Xiang Yu who had surrendered and chuckled.
"Then just sleep on your salary and taste your courage every day."
Xiang Yu's best fate is to be demoted as a slave... Before Xiang Yu suffers the consequences, the Xiang family should cooperate honestly and accept Da Qin's arrangements.
"Let's go!" Zhao Si waved his hand.
Fan Kuai stepped forward and pushed Xiang Yu. Xiang Yu's body stiffened instinctively. He turned his head and glanced at Fan Kuai, but suppressed his inner emotions.
People work as swordsmen, and I work as fish and meat. He has not forgotten his uncle's teachings before his death.
"What are you looking at?" Fan Kuai was glanced at and immediately stared back.
Others would still be shocked by Xiang Yu's gaze, but Fan Kuai's main character is that he is not afraid of anything.
It is a fact that he cannot defeat Xiang Yu, but it is also a fact that he is not afraid of Xiang Yu.
Fan Kuai pushed Xiang Yu to the carriage.
Xiang Yu ignored Fan Kuai's disrespect for him and looked quietly at the neatly arranged Qin troops.
Elite!
Absolutely elite!
They are much more elite than the eight hundred rural soldiers he trained.
Of course they are elite. After all, they are the only full-time soldiers in the Qin Dynasty, and they are selected from the millions of Qin soldiers who have experienced hundreds of battles. Everyone's food and equipment are top-notch in the world.
His eyes passed over the soldiers, and finally fell on the golden-armored general who was guarded by the soldiers.
That is Zhao Si...
A man who pushed himself into a corner.
Xiang Yu despises Zhao Si, the sixth person who set fire, but to be fair, if it weren't for Zhao Si, perhaps the path Xiang Yu would choose would be to die calmly and fight until the last moment of his life.
The fire caused him to lose the opportunity to confront the enemy, and also gave him time to choose and think.
Zhao Si stepped onto the chariot and lined up. Now that things were done, Zhao Si finally no longer had to wear a dull helmet. He took off his helmet and looked back. His eyes fell on Xiang Yu who was tightly bound on the chariot frame. He found that Xiang Yu's eyes were also looking at him. The moment they looked at each other, Xiang Yu lowered his head, his submission seemed stiff and funny.
Zhao Si turned around, smiled and waved his hand, and Liu Bang and Xia Houying drove for Zhao Si.
"My lord, you are in a good mood today..." Zhang Cang, who was fair and fat, climbed up the frame with some difficulty and sat on it.
"It's quite good...it can be regarded as solving a serious problem." Zhao Si spread his hands.
The Xiang family is indeed a serious concern, but this is not Zhao Si's fault.
The solution that seems to be easy now is because the Emperor's command came directly and single-handedly defeated Yin Tong, the governor of Kuaiji County, and then the army directly wiped out the uncles and nephews of the Xiang family.
If the status quo remains, the governor of a county colluding with the top nobles of the Chu region and growing indecently for a period of time can really cause a big stir.
Give the Xiang family and his son and the governor of Kuaiji a certain amount of time to prepare. If they really raise an army, it's really not that easy to put them out.
"Where's the poppy?" Zhang Cang had a smile on his fat face.
"Aren't we about to go..." Zhao Si laughed at the sound.
He was quite frank. To be honest, Zhao Si had seen a lot of beauties, and they were all top beauties. To be rational, he didn't think Yu Ji could be so beautiful that he couldn't control her.
The reason why I have such obsession is nothing more than the aura of history.
But now that Xiang Liang has committed suicide and Xiang Yu has surrendered, upon closer inspection, the aura of history is just that.
The founder of the Han Empire was still driving for himself.
In terms of personality, they are indeed unique, but if we don't understand them in depth, the so-called historical halo is actually just that.
All the maids given by the First Emperor were of the highest quality in this era. In terms of appearance alone, they were even better than the famous stars of later generations. How beautiful could Yu Ji be?
To put it bluntly, it is nothing more than satisfying my own historical feelings.
The main thing is to just drop in... Who gave the Yu family a chance?
After chatting all the way, Zhao Si returned to the convoy with the bodies of the surrendered Xiang Yu and Xiang Liang, and Zhao Si rushed to the Emperor's drive to return to his life.
"What happened here is that Xiang Liang committed suicide and Xiang Ji surrendered." Zhao Si sat in front of the First Emperor and handed over his answer sheet.
"Hmm..." The First Emperor put down his brush and nodded.
"Xiang Liang's body was sent back to the Xiang family for burial, and Xiang Ji was demoted to a slave." The First Emperor rubbed his brows.
He was not too harsh and demanded that Xiang Liang's body be exposed in the wilderness.
It's a fight to the death, and the First Emperor is not someone who needs to be whipped to vent his anger to prove his sense of existence.
No matter how you say it, the Xiang family is one of the first-class nobles in Chu. For the First Emperor, it is more cost-effective to keep the Xiang family led by Xiang Bo than to destroy the Xiang family and trigger panic in the entire Chu land and even among the nobles in the world.
If we want to destroy the Xiang family, we have to force the Xiang family to rebel. Although it will not have much impact, when we promote the relocation order in the future, we will have lessons learned from the Xiang family and even the nobility of Chu... …
At that time, I'm afraid it won't be a relocation order, but another war to destroy the six countries.
Letting them live with luck... might not be a bad thing.
The First Emperor was definitely tolerant, and he did not delve too deeply into the Xiang family, or even the nobles related to the entire Chu region and Yin Tong.
We should deal with the crime according to the procedures of laws and regulations, and deal with it according to the crime committed.
"In this way, it is considered generous. Once Xiang Liang dies, the Xiang family will be headed by Xiang Bo. With Xiang Bo's character, the Xiang family will integrate into the Great Qin faster and respond better to the Great Qin's policies." Zhao Si smiled.
There is a thing called convert fanaticism.
To put it bluntly, the Xiang family's unswerving rebellion was because their previous status was too high, but it was impossible for the Qin State to restore them to their previous glory, and even wanted to share their property and power.
Therefore, under the leadership of Xiang Liang, the Xiang family chose the path of resolute non-cooperation.
But more than ten years later, the Xiang family couldn't stand it any better.
No matter how big the family fortune is, it can't stand to live in vain. The Xiang family has been in decline for more than ten years. The fact that Xiang Liang committed suicide and Xiang Ji was demoted as a slave declared the bankruptcy of their rebellion plan.
The worst has happened, and the collective will of the Xiang family will inevitably find a new way out.
Xiang Liang and Xiang Bo can be seen as the embodiment of the two ideas of the Xiang family.
Xiang Liang wanted me to cooperate and treat him politely so that I could receive the same treatment as before.
Uncle Xiang is like this and he still needs a bicycle. If there is something to eat, he will grab it first.
Xiang Liang went bankrupt, and Xiang Bo's voice increased significantly.
After this incident, in order to consolidate his position in the Xiang family, Xiang Bo will definitely take the initiative to push out a large number of people who disagree with him.
At the same time, in order to show his willingness to cooperate...
Perhaps when working for Da Qin, Uncle Xiang would be more attentive than working for Xiang Liang.
The First Emperor allowed Xiang Liang's body to be returned to the Xiang family for burial. Simply demoting Xiang Ji to a slave was a release of goodwill. At this point, Xiang Bo should have become sensible.
If you are still ignorant, no one in the world can say anything about the destruction of the Xiang family. They can only think that the Xiang family is seeking its own death.
But for Xiang Yu...
"For Xiang Ji, I have a small suggestion." Zhao Si said.
The First Emperor nodded to indicate that Zhao Si was inflamed.
"This person is quite brave and has family blood here. It is not suitable to stay in the south. If possible, it is best to send him to the Longxi area." Zhao Si said.
Where can I be dispatched to in the south? At most, they will be assigned to Lingnan.
There were countless Chu people recruited by the Lingnan generation. Isn't it just asking for trouble to send Xiang Yu, who plans to work hard and try his best?
The Qin State allowed people to be promoted based on meritorious service. This was a legal requirement. Needless to say, the fairness of officials in the Qin Dynasty. Tian Xin was able to continue to be promoted after being demoted by the First Emperor.
Xiang Yu was brave enough to make a name for himself in Lingnan, and with his family and bloodline that he could thrive in the south, Chun Chun gave Xiang Yu an opportunity to take advantage of.
Of course, this is the least likely thing. If it were so easy, Xiang Yu would have gone to Lingnan to enlist in the army instead of following Xiang Liang to train private soldiers.
However, the overlords of Western Chu have learned to endure hardships, so it would be a bit disrespectful not to make arrangements.
It would be a waste not to throw it on the battlefield. Since you are going to work hard, it is reasonable to work for Da Qin before you work hard.
Longxi is the most suitable place to face the front line of Donghu Yuezhi Xiongnu.
Nine out of ten soldiers recruited in that place were from Lao Qin.
There are many tough men inside, and Meng Tian and Young Master Fusu are in charge personally.
Not to mention that Zhao Si sent Han Xin and Li Shiqi there not long ago.
"My retainer, Han Xin, is a general in Longxi. Xiang Ji is very brave and might as well be a commoner under my retainer."
Zhao Si smiled.
It's hard to say whether Xiang Yu and Zhao Si can be seen by others, but Han Xin can definitely do it.
With Han Xin's ability to manage the army...
In addition, 90% of the Longxi Corps are purebred old Qin people.
It would be extremely difficult to make any splash under Han Xin's nose.
Anyway, history has changed beyond recognition, and sending Xiang Yu to meet his destined old enemy in advance is also something Zhao Si is happy to do.
(Also...don't panic...)
