Joy of Life: I am a Han Dynasty succubus, and I rebel from the beginning

Chapter 371: Han Xin has zero political acumen and brainlessly asks for the throne.

Fan Xian opened his mouth slightly, somewhat surprised.

Fei Jie didn't understand why Shen Miao said this. It was the first time that Shen Miao used honorifics in front of a mortal.

The old man in sackcloth clothes spoke with a smile.

"This is a gift that the people of the temple should have. All the temple messengers can provide it to Master Fan Xian."

"Otherwise, how could Ye Qingmei do whatever she wants in the temple so easily?"

This is the authority. Only those who are recognized by the temple's intelligent brain and are humans who come out of the temple can borrow the power of the temple.

Such people exist, and people in the world call them those with heavenly veins!
This time, Fan Xian received the same treatment as Ye Qingmei.

Fan Xian closed his eyes and his tone returned to its calm state.

"let's start!"

Fei Jie began to give Fan Xian anesthesia. With the help of a bunch of sophisticated instruments, the old man in sackcloth clothes replaced some of Fan Xian's weak organs with mechanical ones.

There was just one thing the old man in sackcloth clothes did not tell Fan Xian.

With the addition of intelligent auxiliary control of true qi, the temple's intelligent brain can also rely on the mechanical body to forcibly control Fan Xian's body.

Of course, even if the old man in sackcloth clothes didn't say anything, Fan Xian had sensed something in his heart.

But in order to defeat Liu Hong, the great enemy, Fan Xian was willing to give everything.

The good news from Hangzhou was spread all the way to the few remaining roads in Qing State, and dozens of states and counties surrendered.

Only the eldest prince Li Chengru, who controlled the road to Beijing and was stationed in Kyoto, and the hinterlands of Nanjing City and Suzhou City were not affected.

Everyone understood that the towering tree of Qing State was about to crumble.

In the camp of the coalition forces of the vassal states, where all the generals were sitting, Liu Hong was reading Han Xin's report.

Because of the city of Hangzhou, the Yan family did not seize the opportunity, and more than 400,000 troops were preserved almost intact and surrendered one after another.

The Han army massacred all the noble families in Hangzhou City, used their land, silver and grain, opened their warehouses to release grain, and granted them land.

The 400,000-strong army quickly calmed down their panic and was willing to accept Han Xin's deployment.

Han Xin selected 200,000 strong men from among them, and gave travel expenses to the rest of the soldiers, collected their weapons, and sent them home.

As for the body of Qin Ye, the commander of the Privy Council, it was still intact and sent to Liu Hong's camp.

Although it was clearly a report, the generals of the vassal states showed no joy at all, and looked up at the expressionless Liu Hong from time to time.

He cursed Han Xin for his actions.

He distributed land, opened granaries to release grain, used silver and grain to appease the people and the military, and secretly gathered an army of 200,000.

What is Han Xin trying to do?

Do you have your own troops?
These were clearly things that the monarch and civil officials should do, but Han Xin was left to do them alone.

Did Han Xin want to say that the contribution of Hangzhou City was his own achievement?
Ergouzi, who was originally in high spirits reporting the battle report, looked heavy-faced when he saw these generals.

I stood there in a daze for a moment, somewhat confused.

Why are these people still not happy even after winning the battle?

Gousheng suppressed his anger and almost spoke through gritted teeth.

"General Chariot and Cavalry, what does the great general want to do? After such a great victory, how will His Majesty reward us?"

Er Gouzi instinctively sensed that something was wrong, but he didn't understand where the sense of crisis came from. He could only speak in a stammering voice.

"The general is the greatest general who destroyed the Qing Kingdom. The title of Marquis is no longer worthy of the general. He should be crowned a king."

Liu Hong finally raised his head and looked at Ergouzi.

Er Gouzi knelt down instantly, with cold sweat on his forehead.

Ergouzi, who had been a great contributor and was quite proud of himself, finally woke up completely.

Emperor Gaozu was the ruler of the Han Dynasty, and the title of king should have been awarded to Han Xin.

But there are some things that the emperor can give you, but you must never ask for them.

"Han Xin, ah..."

Liu Hong sighed quietly. These people guessed wrong. He was not angry, but felt a little headache.

He is the grandmaster, the cornerstone of the Han Dynasty.

Seeing his men's contribution, Liu Hong was so happy that he didn't even have time to get angry.

Liu Hong just had a headache because Han Xin's political acumen was too poor.

I didn’t feel it when I was with Xiao He before, probably because of Xiao He’s advice. Now that he is leading the army alone, his low political EQ is obvious.

"Fortunately, I am a grandmaster. Fortunately, I am a grandmaster. Fortunately, I am still young."

Liu Hong murmured to himself, feeling somewhat relieved.

Two hundred thousand elite soldiers of the Han State, two hundred thousand carefully selected soldiers of the Qing State, and a total of four hundred thousand troops, these are now more troops than Liu Hong.

Xiao Zhan's army of 100,000 was completely wiped out, and only 300,000 were left in the coalition forces of the vassal states.

These are basically important generals whom he trusts. With his full support, they are leading troops outside, and now they have more troops than the monarch.

There is also coordination between the upper and lower levels, and the support of the people.

Now I ask you for the throne, will you give it to me?

"Tell me, which fiefdom does Han Xin want?"

Liu Hong pondered for a while, if Han Xin wanted Hangzhou, Northern Qi, Jin and Yan would give it to him, it doesn't matter.

Anyway, when the fiefdoms move north, they will be settled in Northern Qi.

Ergouzi breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Liu Hong was not angry and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

"Your Majesty, the general wants Qianlong Bay and the country's name is Zhao."

Gou Sheng's eyes were bloodshot and he looked like he was about to draw his sword.

"Han Xin is seeking death, Your Majesty! I request your decree to depose Han Xin from his position as general and allow me to lead 100,000 elite troops to attack Han Xin."

What is Qianlong Bay? That is the place where Liu Hong was born.

No matter whether Liu Hong was Peibo, Peigong, or the Grand Commander of Andong, Qianlong Bay has always been Liu Hong's base.

After more than ten years of hard work, An Xin received assistance from Northern Qi, benefit transfer when Qing was an official, and commercial trade with Dongyi City and Xihu.

Although Qianlong Bay has a population of only 500,000, it can be said to be a place of abundance second only to Dongyi City.

It is precisely because of this that Liu Hong’s sworn brother Fatty Lu has been guarding Qianlong Bay.

And now this fellow Han Xin is asking for the birthplace of Emperor Gao.

No wonder Gousheng was so angry, even though he had worked with Han Xin for a period of time in Qianlong Bay.

Gousheng would not allow Han Xin to behave in such a rebellious manner.

Liu Hong tapped the table lightly with his fingers and looked up at Er Gouzi.

"General Chariot and Cavalry, is this what you mean?"

Instead of calling Er Gouzi by his nickname, he was called General of Chariots and Cavalry, which meant that Liu Hong now only cared about the relationship between the monarch and his subjects, not the brotherhood.

Er Gouzi couldn't help but slap himself. How could he be so blinded by greed that he was willing to do this mission for Han Xin? He immediately denied it.

"No, no, no... Your Majesty, I have always been on the same page with you."

Liu Hong laughed. It seemed that his old brothers who followed him were still afraid to make any waves in front of him.

As for Qianlong Bay, it is definitely not given to us.

Qianlong Bay connects Northern Qi, Southern Han and the eastern princes, and also borders Western Hu, and has great strategic significance.

Liu Hong waved his hand, and Guo Baokun quickly picked up his pen and ink.

He used to be a compiler in the palace and was quite familiar with the format of imperial edicts.

The imperial edict was spoken in a calm tone, telling Han Xin that Qianlong Bay was the retirement place prepared by Liu Hong for Fatty Lu and that it already had an owner.

As for the title of King of Zhao, Liu Hong agreed, and after the fall of Qing State, he would let Han Xin choose another fiefdom himself.

Xiao Zhan couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.

"Your Majesty is truly a rare and generous monarch."

Praise aside, Xiao Zhan dare not imitate Han Xin, for Han Xin was an old minister who followed Liu Hong in conquering the world. He once served as a family retainer and had made great military achievements.

Xiao Zhan didn't think that if he were asking for the throne, Liu Hong would let him go so easily.

Liu Hong also picked up his pen and wrote a secret letter.

One bright and one dark, handed to Er Gouzi.

"Take it back and tell Han Xin to read more history books and seek more visits from Zhang Liang, Xiao He and others. Don't stay bored in the army all day."

Liu Hong spoke almost unhappily.

Han Xin's loyalty is beyond doubt. When Liu Hong went to Kyoto as the Grand Commander of Andong, it was Han Xin who brought 30,000 cavalry from Qianlong Bay to give Liu Hong confidence.

But this guy has no political sense.

Er Gouzi felt relieved when he saw that Liu Hong had no intention of getting angry, and spoke shamelessly.

"Your Majesty, am I a marquis or a king?"

Liu Hong glanced at Er Gouzi sideways and uttered a word.

"roll!"

"Got it."

Er Gouzi was quite tactful. He laughed and realized that His Majesty was still the same His Majesty as before, and he felt relieved.

When he returned to report to Han Xin, he also felt a little resentful towards Han Xin for giving him such a difficult task.

Yan Xiaoyi spoke suddenly.

"Your Majesty, what should we do with the body of Qin Ye, the thief?"

At first, Yan Xiaoyi was the Grand Commander of Zhenbei, who was on par with Liu Hong. However, he was transferred to the north by Emperor Qing and was succeeded by Qin Ye.

He could only go on to raise the banner of rebellion in Mount Daito with Uesugi Tora, leading 20,000 cavalrymen.

Naturally, he didn't have a good impression of Qin Ye.

Liu Hong was silent for a while.

I recalled the days when we sought cooperation while fighting with the Qin family, and fought while cooperating.

After a long time, Liu Hong looked at the tent and spoke softly.

"Send it to Emperor Qing! Let him see that the general he relied on the most has died in the internal strife."
