Chapter 760 Wang Yues big man(1/2)
The last two are easy to say, but only on the first one, Zhao Gao and Li Si were unable to comply.
You know, Zhao Gao and Li Si have already offended Mr. Fusu to death. As long as Mr. Fusu ascends the throne, they will die.
Even if Fusu didn't want to kill the two of them, those who supported Fusu didn't want to. After all, they all had blood feuds. How could they let them go after they stood up?
Zhao Gao understood this, and Li Si understood it even more. So when Zhao Gao called Li Si and wanted to tamper with the edict while Yi Xiaochuan was missing, ordering the young master Su to commit suicide and let the young master Hu Hai inherit the throne, Li Si slightly
After hesitating, he immediately agreed.
In Li Si's view, Zhao Gao was just a eunuch and a man without an heir. In the end, it was the Li family that benefited, so why wouldn't he do it.
…
Because Yi Xiaochuan, the biggest opponent of Zhao Gao and Li Si, was still missing, no one could oppose this changed imperial edict, and Hu Hai became the emperor.
However, Fusu, who was deeply influenced by Confucian culture and was taught a fool, was deceived by some Confucian scholars. He took Confucius's saying that a king should treat his ministers politely and his ministers should be loyal in everything, as if the king wanted his ministers to die and the ministers had to die, and the father wanted them to die.
When the son dies, the son has to die.
So, when he received the imperial edict that he should commit suicide, Mr. Fusu obeyed and committed suicide without even thinking about it.
After Fusu's death, although some others were dissatisfied, they also lost support and had no choice but to accept their fate.
When all enemies are gone, the enemies are your former allies.
As a result, the contradiction between Zhao Gao and Li Si, a pair of traitors who dominated both the government and the public, gradually became apparent.
On this day, in order to test who was always following him, Zhao Gao said he would give Master Wen a horse when he went to court. However, when the emperor and other ministers wanted to see it, they found that Zhao Gao had brought it up.
But it was an elk.
However, Zhao Gao pointed at the elk without a blushing face and said, "This horse is so heroic. It must be a peerless horse. My colleagues around me, do you think this is correct?"
Everyone present was afraid of Zhao Gao's power, and all of them remained silent. When Zhao Gao asked the question a second time, Zhao Gao's die-hard fans spoke up one after another, "What Master Zhao said is, this is a horse."
It’s jumping up and down, so cute.”
Even Emperor Hu Hai was afraid of Zhao Gao when he saw so many people saying it was a horse. He could only say helplessly, "Since most people say it is a horse, then it must be a horse."
Zhao Gao secretly remembered those who had not spoken out, and when he returned, he would remove those who should be exempted from office one by one, and get rid of all those who should be eliminated. Even Li Si did not dare to openly oppose Zhao Gao. For a time, Zhao Gaoquan
He swayed the government and the public, and vaguely controlled Xianyang.
Zhao Gao, who was very proud of himself, observed that Yu Shu was still fine after taking the medicine for so long, and her appearance became more beautiful. He thought that the medicine might be the elixir of life, so in order to cover up others' eyes, he quickly sent Yu Shu to her.
He was buried with Qin Shihuang in his mausoleum, but he took one and gave it to his adopted sister Xiaoyue.
Xiaoyue was very grateful to see Zhao Gao being so kind to him, but just before she took it, she unexpectedly got the news that although Yi Xiaochuan was seriously injured, he did not die. He had been soaked in the medicinal bath and was just like a vegetative state.
.
Xiaoyue still liked Yi Xiaochuan at this time. When she heard the news, she rushed to see Yi Xiaochuan. When she found out that Yi Xiaochuan's life was hanging by a thread, she thought that even if the medicine Zhao Gao gave her was not a medicine for longevity, it would be a life-saving medicine.
She gave Yi Xiaochuan the medicine Zhao Gao gave her.
As expected, the elixir of immortality had the effect of bringing the dead back to life as Qin Shihuang thought. Yi Xiaochuan, who had been in a coma for a long time, recovered soon after taking the medicine. However, Qin Shihuang was not lucky enough to enjoy it.
At the same time, Zhao Gao got the news that he had returned to the old place of the Six Kingdoms to get the remnants of Juxian Hall. He still often went against the people of Zhao Gao's Zhongyi Hall, so he issued an order to arrest the remnants of Juxian Hall in various places.
Xiang Yu, who had heard that Master Fusu had died, was already angry enough. In addition, Zhao Gao treated a deer as a horse and wanted to clear out the Juxian Hall. Their uncle and nephew were so angry that they led eight thousand children of the Chu State to rebel. They were originally
Since they were all important ministers of the Chu State, after they rebelled, the troops in Juxian Hall from all over the country responded to their call, and a large number of troops and horses soon gathered.
For a time, wars broke out all over the Qin State and they were plunged into turmoil.
…
When Yi Xiaochuan woke up and received the news, he and Xiao Yue prepared to go find Xiang Yu without hesitation. However, they were blocked by Li Si's son Li You on the way.
Yi Xiaochuan persuaded Li You to lead the Meng family's 200,000-strong army to kill Zhao Gao, kill Hu Hai, and make other princes emperors. Only in this way could Qin be saved.
But in Li You's view, no matter who ascends to the throne by any means, it is a loss for the royal family. He is already the emperor, and he must be loyal. This is the will of the Meng family army.
Neither of them could blame each other. Li You also cared about the brotherhood between the two of them for many years in the Meng family army, and couldn't bear to kill him, so he let Yi Xiaochuan go. He would only see him on the battlefield in the future. And Xiao Yue.
The girl was determined to follow. Although Li You didn't want to give up, he still let go and watched the two of them leave.
…
After Yi Xiaochuan and Xiang Yu met, he left Xiao Yue behind and went to contact the old Juxiantang troops to work hard to overthrow Da Qin. He even rushed to the vicinity of Pei County, found Liu Bang who was a bandit on the mountain, and persuaded him to go down the mountain.
He rebelled and even handed over the brothers of Juxian Hall in Peixian County to Liu Bang.
But Yi Xiaochuan had just left, and when he heard that the Qin army was coming soon, Liu Bang quickly ran away and rushed to Kuaiji to join Yi Xiaochuan. He felt that Yi Xiaochuan was an easy fool and wanted to get more wool from Yi Xiaochuan.
The men Wang Yue arranged for Liu Bang left without even thinking about following Liu Bang, but secretly sent the remaining men to Yandi to join Hou Xiang.
…
Xiang Yu didn't know the situation in Peixian County. After Yi Xiaochuan left, he took out a box full of love letters to express his admiration for Xiaoyue, and successfully moved Xiaoyue. After all, in this era, there is no such woman.
Being able to withstand such a passionate emotional attack, the two became committed to each other from then on.
Originally, the laws of the Qin Dynasty could not be tolerated by the people of the newly restored Six Kingdoms. After Hu Hai came to the throne, he imposed levies and extortionately without considering the people's livelihood. Chen Sheng and Wu Guang had already revolted in Dazhao Township. What is even more strange is that these two
Year after year of disasters, people in various parts of the Qin Dynasty were in dire straits, so rebel armies emerged one after another in various places, growing bigger and bigger like a snowball.
What's even more speechless is that Zhao Gao didn't care that Qin was on the verge of danger. Because he found out that Li Si and Hu Hai were conspiring to get rid of him, he took the first step to kill Li Si and Hu Hai, and made Ziying the king of Qin.
Li You, who was annihilating the rebels on the front line, heard that his entire family had been killed by Hu Hai, and had no intention of directing the war. The Qin army under his command was leaderless and was easily annihilated by Xiang Yu.
When he caught Li You, Yi Xiaochuan wanted to let Li You escape, but Li You was determined to die and wanted to die with the Great Qin in his dream. He was unwilling to surrender and live in this world.
…
Zhao Gao saw that the uprising army was so powerful that he realized that he was afraid. He thought of Wang Yue's army in the north, so he asked Ziying to issue an order to order Wang Yue to go south to attack the army of the overlord of Western Chu.
When Wang Yue saw the imperial edict, he refused on the grounds that he was at war with North Korea. Now that Qin still had the strength to fight, it was not his chance to take action yet, so he was prepared to wait.
Zhao Gao was so angry that he had no choice but to take action against Wang Yue. He saw that Wang Yue meant that the two sides were not helping each other, so he sent Wang Yue's eldest brother Wang Li to lead the last Qin army out of Hangu Pass.
Go to meet Xiang Yu.
When Wang Yue's secret guards heard the news, they felt happy. This was an opportunity for him. Without hesitation, he asked the secret guards to pass the news to Wang Li and prepare to cooperate internally and externally.
Before Wang Li could organize his army and set out, he received Wang Yue's notice. He did not hesitate. After leading his army out of Hangu Pass, he did not stop Xiang Yu's army in Western Chu at all, but led his army north to fight with Wang Yue's army.
Attacked from both sides, they soon occupied the land on the north bank of the Yellow River and faced the Western Chu army from a distance. Only Zhang Han was left to lead the remaining 100,000 troops to confront Xiang Yu.
Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu, could not figure out what the Wang brothers were doing, but when he saw that Wang Yue had no intention of guarding Xianyang, he led his troops to prepare to attack Zhang Han. He was eager to enter Xianyang. After all, he had an agreement with Liu Bang, and he would enter first.
Xianyang is the king, and he cannot lose to Liu Bang.
Brothers Wang Yue and Wang Li saw that the battle between Xiang Yu and Zhang Han was in full swing, so they consolidated the defense line along the Yellow River, and then began to clear out other forces within the territory. Because Wang Yue had many troops and horses, totaling more than 400,000, the number of troops within the territory was more than 400,000.
The forces had no intention of resisting and were quickly wiped out by Wang Yue.
After Liu Bang destroyed the Qin army in Lantian, he colluded with Zhao Gao and entered Xianyang first. Zhao Gao continued to follow Liu Bang and served as Liu Bang's chamberlain.
In this regard, Wang Yue had to admire the two of them. The great hatred between the two was just put aside, which made Wang Yue speechless. He was also prepared to wait for the two to fight, so he took the opportunity to act.
However, it doesn't matter even if he doesn't fight, Liu Bang's good life will end here. After Liu Bang listened to Hou Rui, who was arranged by Wang Yue to be beside him, and cleaned out the Qin royal family, Hou Rui, who was already deeply trusted by Liu Bang, but Hou Rui,
At this time, he turned against Liu Bang and killed Liu Bang.
Before Hou Rui took action, Wang Yue had already led his troops across the Yellow River. Taking the Meng's army's trusted token, he ordered the Meng's army along the Great Wall to stay where they were. He led his troops into Xianyang and took advantage of the situation.
Sent a large army to control Hangu Pass.
Liu Bang's army in Xianyang was originally in disarray because of Liu Bang's death, but because Hou Rui was a figure second only to Liu Bang, they didn't know what to do. After all, this was a matter of the second brother killing the eldest brother, and they are not the same.
It doesn't matter.
Therefore, after seeing Hou Rui defecting to Wang Yue directly, none of the people Liu Bang belonged to had any intention of resisting.
Zhao Gao, who originally sought refuge with Liu Bang, was stunned for a long time after receiving the news. He personally handed the jade seal to Wang Yue in exchange for his freedom.
Wang Yue did not stop him. He was busy now and had no hatred against Zhao Gao. He did not want to embarrass Zhao Gao. Now he had controlled the old land of Qin State and the vast land on the north bank of the Yellow River. He would not stop doing anything.
He took the lead in proclaiming himself emperor, naming the country Han, and establishing Xianyang as the capital.
Zhang Han, who was fighting Xiang Yu to the death, heard the news and immediately led his army to retreat. After consolidating the defense line, it was like Wang Yue had pledged his allegiance. In his eyes, Wang Yue was Wang Jian's grandson. Even if he conquered the world, he was still from Qin. He was Qin.
People are their own people.
Xiang Yu was stunned when he heard the news. The Qin State had been destroyed. If he continued to fight, he would be fighting against the Han Dynasty.
After Yi Xiaochuan heard the news, he simply handed over all the troops and horses to Xiang Yu. He met with Wang Yue alone, and after getting permission, he went to Lishan. He wanted to open the passage to Lishan and see him.
Yu Shu, as for the affairs of the world, they have nothing to do with him.
The current situation is exactly the opposite of that of the rebel army at the beginning. The original goal of the rebel army was to overthrow the Qin Dynasty, but the Qin Kingdom is gone. According to the Han law promulgated by Wang Yue, corvee service is very light. Those peasant soldiers who participated in the uprising
, none of them want to fight again.
The rebels had unstable hearts and had no strength to fight Wang Yue's Han. For a time, the boundaries between Chu, He and Han were clearly divided, and King Huai of Chu also divided the occupied land to those who rebelled.
Princes, let them all go to their destiny.
Wang Yue pretended not to see the split of the rebel army, and did not take the opportunity to attack. He used his rich experience in government affairs to deal with matters in his own territory, and had no intention of taking the initiative to fight the Chu army.
After two or three years of this, the natural disasters in various parts of the country seemed to have stopped immediately after the Qin Kingdom was destroyed, making Wang Yue think that it was the Qin that was punished by heaven.
Under Wang Yue's governance, the Han Dynasty was happy and prosperous, and the country's power was growing day by day, and the people lived and worked in peace and contentment. However, the princes in Chu State were constantly arguing, making the people miserable. Many people in the land moved to the Han Dynasty, or fled south to
