Legends in Chu and Han - C319
Long Tianyu summoned all the dukes to the main hall, and announced that he would be going to Hong Men to negotiate with the allied army, to discuss the division of the Great Qin. There was a need to divide the Great Qin, but there was also a need to participate in the discussions among the loyal troops, and there were at least nine dukes in the army that came from Zhao Qi, Wei, Han Yan, and the five old countries that had fallen.
Zhang Er suddenly asked: “Why are we going to Hongmen Emperor? We won’t let Xiang Yu and Fan Zeng obediently come to the Xianyang. Right now, the ones who have the upper hand are the allied forces.
“That’s right, who does Xiang Yu think he is? we should all bow down to Pei Gong! ”
“That’s right, Pei Gong entered the Xianyang first, naturally he is Guan Zhong Wang, and married the Chu Nation as his wife and concubine, this is a contract between Li Yuan and the other allied armies, the Xianyang was captured and destroyed, the Li family’s young miss is Pei Gong’s man.”
“Yes, it is indeed Pei Gong …”
“The Chu Army wants to seal the territory, let Xiang Yu and Fan Zeng come to the Xianyang to beg for us … …”
The twenty some marquis generals of the allied armies roared in agreement, flattering Pei Gong, while also greatly humiliating Chu Army Xiang Yu, trying to vent out the anger and resentment in their hearts. These few days, the number of people who died in battle with the Chu Army were far greater than the number who died at the hands of the Qin Army, as the war against the Qin had turned into a battle with the Chu Army.
Long Tianyu saw that everyone’s morale was high, so he was about to say that he was coerced to go to the Hong Sect and use the rivers and mountains to exchange for beautiful women. This was too useless, but he had no choice but to bring these generals over. Otherwise, what king would they seal at the banquet?
He immediately blocked the crowd’s noisy discussion and calmly said: “Everyone, do not underestimate this banquet. Chu Army has sent a hundred thousand reinforcements to Lan Tian, and today, Xiang Yu will lead the army to Xianyang and settle at the Hong Gate area. He will set up a Hong Gate banquet, and ask all of you to bring them to it.
“What?” A hundred thousand reinforcements, oh my god, even more than all of us combined. Powerful, but we can jump into the trap in the open when there’s a feast in the dark. No, we can’t do it! ” Wei Bao shouted. He was a little scared of the Chu Army.
In the end, the Chu Army still did not have any good intentions. This is a scheme for us, they are obviously not able to get into the Xianyang, but they want to set up a feast as a king to trick us into going, the camp is filled with their men, if we were to suddenly make a move at the feast, wouldn’t we all be killed? Tian Rong said angrily.
“When the time comes, we won’t be split up in the Land of Qin, but rather, our bodies. We’ll definitely dismember them into eight pieces …”
“Everyone be quiet, please listen to what Pei Gong has to say!” Xiahou Ying stopped the crowd’s discussion, he knew very well that all these rebel leaders would just blindly make a fuss. When they saw that the charge had finally come to fruition, all of them were so scared that they ran away without any fighting spirit, letting them talk casually without any conclusion, all they needed was for Mo Shou to protect themselves.
Long Tianyu looked at the Marquis General coldly and said: “What’s there to be afraid of? There are one hundred thousand disciples of the Chu Army here, and we also have one hundred thousand elite soldiers of the Pengcheng. In terms of military strength, we’re more than them. In terms of generals, we’re several times stronger than them. We have to go, and we have to split the world right in front of Chu Army. If Chu Army wants to play tricks, she’s courting death! ”
Wei Bao, Tian Rong, Han Guang and the others quieted down, after knowing that the dragon army had over a hundred thousand elite soldiers, they immediately understood that if they were to split the territory, it would be fine. But if Xiang Yu wanted to deal with the allied army, she would be the first one to split the territory with the dragon army.
“Go!” Pei Gong will go, we will go. ” Zhang Er said firmly.
“We will all follow Pei Gong to the Hongmen Feast’s King … …” Everyone else also agreed with him.
Long Tianyu laughed as he looked at these loyal officials. He felt that it was ridiculous, were these people really historical figures? How could he have become so shameless and philistine? He shouted: “Then it is decided, tomorrow night we will go to the Hongmen banquet, the main force of the Pengcheng Allied Army and 100,000 troops will go up, the other dukes will only bring a thousand men with them to build a strong army, as long as they bluff, this general will guarantee that they will not harm your warriors.”
Of course, everyone was talking big words about the honor of dying, but inside, they were overjoyed. They did not have thousands of soldiers, so if they went to the battlefield and died, they would become a powerless king. Without strength in this chaotic world, it was easy for others to swallow them.
“In that case, all of you should go back and prepare. Tomorrow evening, we will meet outside the pavilion and head to the Hongmen Mountain Range’s King. Today, we should return to our respective camps and think carefully about whether or not our side wants that piece of land.” Long Tianyu threw out a very alluring and sensitive topic, causing everyone to immediately forget about the danger, and focus solely on obtaining the title of king.
Ambition is a butcher’s knife, and a man whose ambition is constantly expanding will swing it at a man who prevents him from reaching his presumptuous goal. Even if the man himself did not want to stop him, he would not be able to escape as long as he thought the man was a stumbling block.
The day quickly passed. When Nine-Way Allied Army returned, hsheexcitedly compared the maps and chose the location she wanted the most, while the dragon army adjusted their formation according to plan, and prepared to send out the troops tomorrow night. As for Long Tianyu, he accompanied the two women and peacefully spent the entire day with no signs of travelling, and no one knew what kind of situation would happen during the banquet tomorrow night.
The famous history of the Hongmen Feast was actually set up because of Long Tianyu.
The next day, Pengcheng Allied Army was all in place, and the construction of the Chu camp was completed. Both sides only needed to wait for the envoys to arrive, and each side had their own matters to attend to. During the day, everyone was extremely excited, and only Long Tianyu was not able to let the two girls go, because after tonight, the situation would be different.
“Because of the Hongmen feast, the world’s situation will change. The battle in the Central Plains will begin again!” Wan-Er stood beside him. Her heavenly voice echoed in his ears.
Long Tianyu looked at the setting sun in the sky and sighed, “Maybe this is fate!”
Yi Yi was peerless. She pointed to a line of people outside the restaurant and said, “All kinds of people are here. Husband, you are going to the banquet. Be careful!”
Long Tianyu retracted his gaze and looked outside the grand hall. The banner was fluttering, on the banner were embroidered the names of different allied armies, with a grand voice, he nodded his head and regained his confidence, then said: “It’s time to experience the events of history for myself. No matter what the situation is, I will gladly accept it, hahaha.”
Seeing her husband’s confidence, Wan’er felt that you could handle any difficulties. Don’t worry, the future world will be yours, but for now, it’s not the time. Chunyu Wan’er said half naughty half serious.
Long Tianyu did not care about all these, as he was clad in battle robes and a silver white armor was flashing with a cold gleam, he extended his hand and patted the two girls’ plump buttocks, and laughed: “Tonight, wait for me to bring Yueyao and Ji Er here, we will talk through the night, hehe.”
A round moon hung high up in the sky, releasing a milky white light across the land. Traces of mist the color of milk floated above his head. Long Tianyu was not in the mood to admire the moon at the moment.
Outside, the Dragon Army Generals Guan Ying, Fan Kuai, Xiahou Ying, Yu Ziqi, Yu Ziqi, the strategists Zhang Liang and the others were all calmly waiting for him, while the dukes of Zhao Jun Zhao Xie, Tian Guang Tian Rong, Wei Bao of Wei Jun, Han Guang of the Korean Army, Zang Tu of the Yan Jun, Peng Yue, Tian Du, Cheng Gao and Zhao Xin along with their nine thousand men were all waiting for his orders, and thus, they immediately headed to the Hongmen’s Night Banquet.
