Chapter 971: The Heroes Seek Darkness

Brother, brother, brother still thinks that your old bones were buried in a small place and fed to the wolves. ”

Seeing that the old man in front of him was really his brother, with good arms and legs, and even the habit of coughing and spitting had not changed, Li Shang breathed a sigh of relief, but he still couldn't stop complaining.

Who let Li Shiqi follow Zhang Erxi to attack Qin five months ago, and there was no news?

Li Shiqi sneered: "Who taught you those light hero skills?" With old swordsmanship, how many jackals will you be afraid of? ”

"What did the brother do?"

Li Shang lowered his voice, as early as when his elder brother urged him to surrender to Chu, he said that no matter Chu or Wei, they will be defeated in the future, only Heifu can dominate the world, and Li Shiqi must be familiar with the Six Kingdoms, and when the time comes, he can sell himself at a high price......

Li Shiqi didn't answer first, but asked him if everything was okay at home? How many people did you bring in?

Li Shang said: "Not much, only two thousand, and the remaining two thousand are taken by Li Xuan and left behind by Chen." ”

Li Shi is Li Shiqi's son, but Li Shi Qi is extremely distrustful of him, and said disdainfully: "Li Xu? Can this convince those rangers? It's just your prestige. ”

Li Shang was helpless: "Brother, Li Xuan is also over thirty years old, and his brother takes him to practice martial arts on weekdays......"

Li Shiqi shook his head and said: "This son is not like me, and he can't learn your three masters, sadly, the old man who has earned his merits at the risk of death, I am afraid he will not be able to keep it in the future, or ......."

He smiled and said, "Pass it on to you!" ”

"Meritorious Lord? Brother is now ......"

Li Shiqi said: "I am now the left watch personally appointed by the regent of Great Qin. ”

"This is what I got in Hedong, wearing out my mouth, saying that I lowered one Sima and two counties."

It is not an exaggeration to have this feat, but the great thing is that because of Li Shiqi's careful planning, and the "feather battalion" set up by Heifu is very secret, he took refuge in Heifu and persuaded him to surrender several counties, except for a few people, no one can know.

Only then was Li Shiqi able to blend in with the defeated Wei soldiers in Hedong and easily run to Hanoi County......

"I met Sima Mao, a Zhao general who was ordered to assist the Wei garrison in Hanoi, and he looked at the Qin army in Mengjin and Heyin, but he was terrified."

Now Hedong and Henan have been taken by Heifu, the three rivers are one, and it is also the most densely populated and rich place in the world, the people of Hanoi returned to Qin earlier, and even helped King Qin Zhao win the battle of Changping, and began to eat the benefits of the military duke early, and the mentality is different from other Kwantung counties, they are happy to be Qin people. Hanoi County is facing enemies from the west and south, and it will be difficult for anyone to defend it.

Li Shang said: "Brother persuaded him?" ”

"Almost."

Li Shiqi sighed: "Sima Mao's grandfather Sima Shang, is Li Mu's colleague, the two of them together in charge of the army, repelled the Qin army, Li Mu was killed by Zhao Wangqian, Sima Shang was also deposed of the title, his family is not so stupid and loyal to Zhao State, but Sima Mao and Li Zuoche, but they are close friends, Li Zuoche is now in Taiyuan to defeat Han Xin, the end of the war is about to start, Sima Mao can not bear to abandon it. ”

"And the advantage of the Qin army in the Central Plains is still not big enough, and it is necessary to see that the south bank of the Great River has become a sweeping trend, and Sima Mao will abandon the last illusion."

"So I crossed the river and went south to Daliang to spy on the military."

Li Shiqi said with a smile: "This time, Xiang Liang, as the Zuo Sima of the Chu State, gathered the eighteen county dukes to guard against the Qin army's eastward advance in spring. ”

Zuo Sima, this is Xiang Liang returned to the Chu State, in addition to the county duke, the new official position, Xiang Yu is the Shangzhu State & Da Sima, the supreme military commander of the Chu State, then Zuo Sima is his deputy, Xiang Yu crossed the Huai to repel the Jiangdong division, and attacked the nearby Hengshan area to the west, Huainan handed over to Ji Bu, and all military affairs in Huaibei were handled by Xiang Liang.

At present, the division of power within the Chu State is somewhat delicate, but it is also a helpless move in wartime, and what Li Shiqi is curious about is that in the face of this terrible situation, how far can Xiang Liang go, can he be stronger than Xiang Ji?

"He was serious and summoned the county magistrate of the Eighteenth Road?"

Speaking of which, this so-called Eighteen Road County Duke is really a specialty of the Chu State, which is equivalent to a feudal monarch.

Because of the Seven Heroes of the Warring States Period, they have basically completed the centralization of power and counties, but the Chu State is still in the feudal dream of the Spring and Autumn Period.

There is no way, the country is too big, almost the same as the other six combined, and there are many old states, Puyue aliens, and direct rule is impossible at all, so I have to let the princes continue to be placed in the place.

As a result, the more and more sealed, Zhao Jingqu and Ruo Ao are all old nobles with a long history, and the Chu State is not like the Yan State and the Qin State.

When Wu got up and went to the state of Chu, the illness he found for the king of Chu was: "The ministers are too heavy, and the kings are too many; If this is the case, then the Lord will abuse the people, and this poor country is also the way of weak soldiers. ”

But Wu Qi's reform also failed, and in the third year, he was directly killed by the nobles at the funeral of the king of Chu, and a civil war broke out in the Chu state, and the army of the king of Chu and the fiefdom of the nobles fought inseparably.

In the end, the nobles with the bad plot were killed, but the king of Chu also saw the power of the nobles and compromised. In this way, it was tepid, and it was difficult to return until it was occupied by the Qin State of Jianghan, and the relocated Chu State not only did not change, but also intensified its separation.

Who would have thought that in the Spring and Autumn Period, he shouted "I am a barbarian, and I don't use the Central Plains as a scorn", and the state of Chu, which established itself as the king because of its disobedience to the Zhou, has become the country that adheres to the Zhou system and is most addicted to etiquette and music.

As a result, when the Qin army came over again, the king of Chu still did not have the slightest appeal, and the great nobleman Xiang Yan had to come forward and summon the county officials to fight Qin to the death.

After the death of the country, the county magistrates, their protΓ©gΓ©s, and their descendants, who were deprived of their privileges, became the most active group of people who opposed Qin, hiding in the rivers and lakes, and never dying......

The sharpest rebel of the year finally became the most conservative mound dry bones, even if the bones were dissolved, the smooth skull was still crowned with an exaggerated high crown, and Bai Sensen's body was covered with a bright body like fire, and the cuffs were wide Chu clothes and deep clothes.

Now that the state of Chu has been reborn, it is still being drummed up by the old aristocracy, not Lu Zuo Dick. Naturally, it is necessary to highlight orthodoxy, since it is said that the Chu system is to be restored, it must not just be as casual as adding a "Yin" to the official name.

The Chu system without sub-sealing is soulless!

In addition, the real power factions in various places have their own armed forces, in order to unanimously admit their power to the outside world, the new Chu State is also very happy to recognize their power, this vast Chu land, suddenly there are dozens of "county dukes", the small ones have hundreds of soldiers, the big ones are thousands, and the largest ones are like Xiang Ji, sitting on the entire Donghai County, and the descendants of their Xiang family, as long as they are adults, are all mixed with county dukes.

It's not that no one sees the drawbacks of this system, but in the end it did, perhaps because of a reluctant compromise in reality, or because it was a belief in ......

If you get the fiefdom, you can fight for yourself and the Chu State, right?

"This is going to let the Duke of Xia know, and he will definitely beat these county dukes to the point that there is no one left, although the name is the same but the meaning is different, but otherwise, there will be no way to show the nobility of the duke."

Therefore, today Xiang Liang has to fight against the Qin army that is advancing eastward, and he also has to learn from his old father's routines, and after a summoning, the lords of all over the country can join one after another with their men......

For a while, the script of the heroes to beg for the black has been completed.

"Seventeen roads have come now."

Li Shang is Chen Liugong, he is relatively close to here, and he came early, so he counted them to his brother one by one, and Li Shiqi can usually report his deeds when he hears his name, which is the "information" he sold to Heifu.

"Guling Gong Zhouwen."

Li Shiqi said: "Xiang Yanjun is in the middle of the day, he participated in the battle fifteen years ago, this person is one of the very few people who has fought a big battle, and he is also Xiang Liang's right-hand man?" ”

"Exactly, Zhou Wen is now the general."

"There is also Yu Fanjun, the father of Xiacheng, he was the first group of people to surrender to Xiang, there is Mo Aolonghe, and Chen Sheng, who went to Zhao State......"

"Hengyang Gongfu Kuan, Wei Ren also, extremely brave."

"Take care of Gong Zheng Bu, raise troops to welcome Xiang Ji, and besiege Tandi."

"Xiapi Gong Xiang is entangled, Xiang Liang Ji is brother."

"Yongqiu Gongxiangshe, this is the son of Xiangxian Gongxiang, and the son of Huangkou."

Li Shang hated this neighbor very much, at first Xiang She was Chen Liugong, but he felt that Chen Liu's light man was difficult to control, so he exchanged with Li Shang, which was in his arms, but he looked down on Xiang She more and more.

"Fenggong Yongya, Xiayi Gongwang's Mausoleum, these are all characters in the Fengpei area, all county heroes, and there are no outstanding deeds, but they all responded to Xiang Liang's call."

Li Shiqi commented: "If you don't come, I'm afraid you will be attacked, although the situation has been decided, but the county officials are vulgar people, they may not be able to understand, and ......"

"In every county magistrate, there are hostages who are detained in Pengcheng! This is also a strategy! ”

Li Shang gritted his teeth, his son Li Ji was a hostage, otherwise he would not be so timid.

"It's only seventeen, and the last one hasn't arrived......"

Li Shiqi smiled: "Pei Gong Lu Ze." ”

"My brother, you make a bet with me, Lu Ze, do you dare to come here to pay homage to Xiang Liang?"

Li Shang shook his head: "Don't dare to come, there are rumors outside, saying that Lu Ze secretly communicates with Heifu, if he comes, if he can't explain clearly, won't he be taken down the sacrificial flag?" Manchus are all punished? ”

It is said that Heifu was at the Hongmen banquet, and others did not ask, but asked Lu Ze by name, as well as a person named Fan Xu......

But if he doesn't come, Lu Ze's two brothers will be hostages in Pengcheng, and I'm afraid they will suffer.

"Brother, is this true or false? Did Lu Ze really vote for Qin? How can this be done? Could it be that Peiren Xiao He and Cao Shen introduced him, and I heard that both of them are in high positions. ”

"How do I know ......?"

Li Shiqi muttered that some of the regent's practices seemed to be at his fingertips, and he seemed to be far-sighted and as intelligent as him, but he couldn't understand it at all.

He only knew that Heifu dug a pit at that Hongmen banquet, but he didn't understand how much the regent did to make a small county public with a little-known name, even if it exploded, it would have little impact, and Li Shiqi could only see the opportunity to act......

Of course, the premise is that Lu Ze has the courage to come here.

At this moment, there was a commotion outside, and Li Shang went out to ask, and when he came back, he said with annoyance:

"It's me who lost......"

"Pei Gong Lu Ze, he has reached the Great Liang!"
