Age of Empires: Beginning Reincarnation as Prince of Qin

Chapter 203 Envoy to the Tang Dynasty! ! !

Chu, Huaiyin County.

The weather in Huaiyin County has been cloudy and rainy, the sky is overcast with dark clouds, and there is a thunderstorm from time to time.

"Pa-ta, pa-ta."

The majestic heavy rain poured down, hitting the eaves, making people almost worried about breaking the rubble.

Han Xin, the Marquis of Huaiyin, was still reading the volume of Huangshi Gong's Art of War in the hall, but at this moment, he was a little absent-minded.

It seems that he is reading military books, but in fact his mind has drifted to nowhere.

"Clap, clap, clap."

"Clap, clap."

"Clap."

The sound of raindrops falling on the eaves made Han Xin very irritable. For some reason, an ominous premonition arose in his heart, as if something bad was about to happen.

"Snapped!"

"It's raining so annoying!" Han Xin said after throwing the book of war on the table, picking up the tea bowl and taking a sip of tea.

Kuai Tong at the side looked at Han Xin, thinking that the prince might have something on his mind!
"My lord, is there something unpleasant in your heart?" Kuai Tong raised the teapot, filled the tea bowl in front of Han Xin, and asked.

Han Xin's expression froze, he looked up at the gloomy sky in the distance, and said in a deep voice: "The sky is not only a human image, but many things can be seen from the sky!"

"The season of autumn and winter is not the rainy season, but now it is raining heavily. The sky is abnormal. I am afraid that something ominous is about to happen!"

Hearing this, Kuai Tong smiled, and said in a deep voice: "Oh, my lord is too worried. Under my lord's plan, the kings of Yingbo have already fought with the emperor of Han. My lord just needs to wait and sit back. The fisherman's profit is enough!"

"Now, the situation is very good, why should the prince be so worried."

Although Han Xin had asked himself to be the Marquis of Huaiyin from the King of Chu, Kuai Tong, the generals under Han Xin, still called him the King of Chu.

Han Xin shook his head and said, "That's not right. It's up to man to plan things, but it's up to God to make things happen. This man has thousands of calculations, but he can't count on God."

"Although Liu Ji is about to die, he still has the life of a dragon. I hope that God can stand by my side this time, Han Xin!"

"The important minister said that once Liu Ji dies, the dragon spirit of the great man will surely dissipate. At that time, who can be the hero of the great man to be around the prince!"

"At that time, His Majesty the King of Chu will definitely be able to ascend the throne and sit in the palace, and be crowned the Great Treasure!" Kuai Tong said from the side.

However, the voice did not fall.

"report"

"Report to the King of Chu, Jiujiang Wang Yingbu has a secret letter!" At this time, a messenger braved the heavy rain and handed a letter to Han Xin.

As soon as he heard that the letter from Jiujiang Wang Yingbu had arrived, Han Xin couldn't help but "click" in his heart.

Han Xin has always had an ominous premonition in his heart these days, and he knew that this ominous premonition should be reflected in Yingbo's letter.

Han Xin took the letter from Yingbo, looked at it carefully, and looked at it, and Han Xin's face became gloomy.

Han Xin's face was so gloomy that water dripped out, and his heart sank to the bottom.

Yingbo lost again, which Han Xin did not expect.

In Han Xin's view, with Jiujiang Wang Yingbu as the leader, Han Wangxin, Zhao Wang Zhang Ao, Changsha Wang Wu Rui, Liang Wang Penghui.The five forces added together should not be unable to deal with Liu Bang no matter what!

However, something unexpected happened to Han Xin. When these five families were added together, he really lost the battle.

Since Han Xin received the letter, his face became more and more ugly.Kuai Tong was standing opposite Han Xin. Kuai Tong was also very curious about the letter from Ying Bu. He also wanted to know what was in the letter and why Han Xin had such an ugly face.

"My lord, this letter" Kuai Tong hesitated to speak.

Han Xin's expression froze, and he said in a deep voice, "Hey, Yingbo was defeated, and Penghui was killed by Lu Bu!"

When he heard the first half of the sentence "Yingbo was defeated", Kuai Tong didn't pay much attention.After all, victory or defeat is a common matter in military affairs, and it is impossible for anyone to say that they only win battles and never lose battles.

Therefore, Yingbo lost one game and two games last time, which does not affect the overall situation.

Now, the most important thing is that Peng Hui is dead. This is what can really affect the situation.

Although Peng Yue asked himself to be deposed, in fact, in the hearts of the people of Liang, Peng Yue was the King of Liang.

This is like the fact that although Han Xin's title has been lowered to Marquis of Huaiyin, in the hearts of the people of Chu, he is still the king of Chu.

If Peng Yue is dead, then his son Peng Hui will be the new King of Liang. If Peng Hui is not dead, then the people of Liang will be able to fight against Liu Bang together.

However, once Peng Hui died now, the hearts of the people in Liangdi would be dissipated.Moreover, once Peng Hui died, it meant that the big man lost a king with a different surname, which was a huge blow to the morale of Yingbu and others.

These kings of the opposite sex are all prosperous, and all are damaged. Now that the king of Liang, Peng Hui, died, Yingbo really panicked.

What is the purpose of Yingbu's letter to Han Xin? It is to tell Han Xin that it is not our business to confront Liu Bang.

Han Xin, Ying Bu, Wu Rui and others are old acquaintances.They all followed Liu Bang to fight the world together. It can be said that you know my length and I know your depth.

Han Xin knew Yingbo very well, and Yingbo knew Han Xin very well.

In Yingbo's eyes, Han Xin is just an old fox. He just wants to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, and reap the benefits of the fisherman.

Why didn't Yingbo send a letter to Han Xin at the beginning, asking him to send troops.It is precisely because Yingbo understands that his prestige is not as good as Han Xin.

If Han Xin was invited to send troops from the beginning, after Liu Bang was really defeated, then whoever should be the emperor, Yingbo would definitely not be able to compete with Han Xin.

The reason why Han Xin is invited to send troops now is because it seems that Liu Bang can't be defeated.His life was in danger after the fight, so naturally he didn't care so much, so he had to invite Han Xin to send troops.

And Han Xin also knew Yingbo. In Han Xin's eyes, Yingbo was both cowardly and courageous.

If this battle goes smoothly, then Yingbo will fight bravely than anyone else.But if it is really too late to beat, then Yingbo can run faster than anyone else.

Therefore, Yingbo told Han Xin in his letter that if the war situation continues to deteriorate.He will take Changsha Wang Wu Rui and others back to Jiujiang County to defend. Han Xin believes that Yingbo can do such things.

Once Yingbo really confessed and withdrew to Jiujiang County, Han Xin would be the next one to suffer.

Moreover, Han Xin will still be in a helpless state by then.

Han Xin knew that he couldn't just sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight. If one is not good, the tiger may bite him.

Thinking of this, Han Xin picked up his pen and wrote a reply letter to Yingbo. In the letter, Han Xin asked Yingbo to stick to Qianzheng City, and promised Yingbo to go out immediately after preparing the army.

In at least a month, his army of Han Xin could rush to the city of Qianzheng.

After Han Xin wrote the letter, he handed it to Kuai Tong and said, "Go, send someone to deliver this letter to Yingbo!"

After receiving the letter, Kuai Tong asked Han Xin, "King Chu, shall we send troops?"

Han Xin stood up from the table, patted the clothes on his body, and said in a deep voice: "Under the overturned nest, there will be no eggs."

"Send troops!"

Although Han Xin intended to sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight, the premise of sitting on the mountain and watching the tigers fight was that the two tigers were evenly matched.

If the disparity in power between the two tigers is too great, then when the tiger Liu Bang eats the tiger Yingbo, the next unlucky one will be Han Xin.

However, at this time Han Xin looked solemn, as if he was thinking about something.After a long time, Han Xin said slowly: "If I send troops, Liu Ji will definitely ask Datang to send troops to contain me!"

"Once the Tang Dynasty sends troops, it will affect the whole body. Kuai Tong, I want to send you to the Tang Dynasty as an envoy. No matter what, I must persuade the Tang Emperor not to attack my land of Chu!"

For Kuai Tong, this task was a very difficult one.

Why do you say that?
Liu Bang's family is the Emperor of Han, and they sent envoys to the Tang Dynasty, which belongs to the diplomacy between countries.

When people talk about it, it is also very important.

When Kuai Tong was sent to the Tang Dynasty as an envoy, he was an envoy of princes and kings, and his weight was not comparable to that of Liu Bang's envoy.

Kuai Tong was beating his heart at this time, he was not sure how to persuade the Emperor Tang not to attack Chu, so he didn't dare to give Han Xin this guarantee.

Looking at Kuai Tong's appearance, Han Xin seemed to understand what Kuai Tong was thinking.

Just listen to Han Xin's instructions: "Don't worry, this matter is not as difficult as you imagined."

"Han Emperor Li Yuan and his eldest son Li Jiancheng are both peace-loving people, and they will not easily agree to send troops to attack our land of Chu."

"Only, his second son, Li Shimin, is very belligerent. Therefore, after you arrive in Datang, go to Li Jiancheng first, and talk to him about his life."

"As long as Li Jiancheng can be persuaded, then Tang Emperor Li Yuan can also be persuaded through Li Jiancheng."

It's all said and done, and Han Xin has helped Kuai Tong find a breakthrough.If, at this time, Kuai Tong is still afraid of wolves and tigers, it will appear that he is too incompetent!

Thinking of this, Kuai Tong cupped his hands and said, "King Chu, don't worry, I, Kuai Tong, will definitely convince the Tang Emperor and won't attack me in Chu."

Han Xin is a practical faction. After sending someone to send a reply to Yingbo, Han Xin began to prepare his army.

Han Xin is going to send 20 troops to join the coalition forces. Only in this way can he occupy a dominant position in the coalition forces.

As the saying goes, one general is incompetent, and thousands of troops are exhausted.

Since Han Xin joined the coalition forces, he had to occupy a dominant position in the coalition forces.

Han Xin's army is ready to join the war, so naturally it can't be hidden from Liu Bang's eyes and ears.

After Liu Bang learned that Han Xin was going to join the war, he immediately sent Chen Ping as an envoy to the Tang Dynasty to ask for help.

Datang is connected to Chu, so if Datang sends troops, it will be able to contain Han Xin in Chu.

Chen Ping started from Luoyang, and Kuai Tong had already arrived at the capital of the Tang Dynasty, where he met Li Jiancheng.

Kuai Tong's envoy to the Tang Dynasty was a secret trip. After arriving in Luoyang, Kuai Tong did not go to see Tang Emperor Li Yuan, but first went to see Li Jiancheng.

Prince's Mansion.

main hall.

"I don't know, what is the special envoy of the king of Chu coming to our Tang Dynasty for? Why didn't he go to see my father first, but come to see me first!" Li Jiancheng asked Kuai Tong after he ordered tea to be served.

Kuai Tong smiled slightly, and then said to Li Jiancheng: "I don't know if His Royal Highness knows the current situation of my great Han. The Emperor of Han wants to cut down the feudal clan, and now his troops are approaching the city of Qianzheng!"

"The Emperor of Han wants to cut down the vassal, so my King Chu naturally can't just stand by. My King Chu has been raising his troops recently, and will go to Qianzheng Cheng to join the battle in a month or so."

"Perhaps, it won't be for sure that this big man will change in a short time!"

Li Jiancheng took a sip of his tea and said to Kuai Tong: "This is your big man's business, what has it to do with my Tang Dynasty?"

Kuai Tong immediately explained: "My family's king of Chu's conspiracy should have been heard a little bit compared to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"

"My King of Chu predicted that the Emperor of Han would definitely send someone to persuade Emperor Tang to send troops to contain our King of Chu. Therefore, he sent someone as an envoy first."

"Now, the Han Emperor's envoy has not yet arrived, so it would be a bit reckless to seek to see the Tang Emperor first. Therefore, I came to seek to see His Royal Highness the Crown Prince first!"

"I don't know about this, how does His Royal Highness feel about it!"

Hearing Kuai Tong's question, Li Jiancheng frowned, and then replied: "This is a matter of your Han family, and has nothing to do with my Tang Dynasty!"

Obviously, Li Jiancheng is a pacifist, he does not like to fight.

After hearing Li Jiancheng's answer, Kuai Tong thought to himself, the king of Chu is really good at predicting things.The prince of the Tang Dynasty really did not support the Tang Dynasty's meddling in the Han dispute.

"His Royal Highness, my King Chu has something to say! In order to persuade the Tang Emperor to send troops to help, the Emperor of Han will definitely promise the disputed land between the Han and Tang Dynasties as a reward!"

"The King of Chu said that the Han and Tang Dynasties fought for years, but they kept fighting in small battles. The reason for this is precisely because there is this disputed land as a buffer."

"If so, the emperor of Han promised this disputed land to the emperor of Tang. Of course, the Tang Dynasty won the land. However, without this disputed land as a buffer, the next battle between Tang and Han will be a life-and-death battle." Battle of the Kingdoms!"

Kuai Tong told Li Jiancheng what Han Xin said, and sure enough, Li Jiancheng frowned and fell into deep thought.

Li Jiancheng is an extremely smart person, and he knows that what Han Xin said makes sense.

Once the Tang Dynasty agreed to send troops, although in the short term it would earn land, it would also lose the buffer between the Han and Tang Dynasties.

"The king of Chu is right!"

"Mr. Kuai, don't worry, I will convince my father that I will not interfere in the fight between the big men!" Li Jiancheng promised Kuai Tong.

Li Jiancheng is a man of success. He does not want the Tang Dynasty to expand its territory, let alone the great Han to unify the six countries of the Central Plains.

Li Jiancheng only wanted to make Datang more and more prosperous, there would be no wars, and the people would live and work in peace and contentment.

In Li Jiancheng's view, intervening in the battle between the big men.Although it can be profitable in the short term, it is not beneficial in the long run.

After Kuai Tong got Li Jiancheng's promise, he hurriedly bowed his hands to Li Jiancheng to thank him.

After the two chatted for a long time, Kuai Tong got up to leave.

Before leaving, Kuai Tong bowed his hands to Li Jiancheng and said, "His Royal Highness, please pay attention to it. After the envoy of the Han Emperor arrives, send someone to the Yuelai Inn in the west of the city to inform me. Good job!"

Li Jiancheng nodded and replied, "Naturally, it doesn't matter!"

Li Jiancheng and Kuai Tong have the same purpose, so if you let them know, there is nothing wrong with it!
