Chapter 922 The real king
"All countries?"
Xiao He couldn't help but smile and said,
"Although these city-states have few villains, they have a very strong tone."
The entire northwest boundary is actually quite large, but the city-state has a small population. I don’t know if these people all add up to one million.
It's not as good as a fraction of the Qin Dynasty.
He dares to be called an alliance between the countries.
Han Xin also said with some regret at this time,
"Yes, there are indeed fewer of these people."
He also hoped to use these people to exchange for a royal title. There were too few people and not enough credit.
Looking at Han Xin's regretful look, Xiao He couldn't help but wonder, why did the other party seem to be afraid that these small countries will not unite in this situation?
When he was about to think deeply, Han Xin continued to say,
"So Brother Xiao, you don't have to worry. These people can't make any troubles."
"Just show your ambitions, and then take a good role as a minister."
Hearing this, Xiao He couldn't help but feel a little fascinated. Although his family was in good condition before, he was strictly a poor family, and his highest position was just a small official.
Now he has the opportunity to stand at the highest position in the world. Of course he will be moved, but he still said with a little humility at this time.
"There are many capable people in the court, and I'm afraid it's not my turn. I think Brother Chen Ping is doing very well in the south."
Han Xin said with great certainty at this time,
"Brother Xiao, you don't have to be humble. When it comes to governance, just look at this heavy snow. We waited for tens of thousands of soldiers but were not affected too much. This is all your credit!"
This time, the snow on the grassland was of course greater than in the Great Wall, but before it snowed, Xiao He made preparations in all aspects.
He was a little dissatisfied at the beginning, thinking that the other party was preparing too much.
But soon, the snow was a bit unexpected, and with the previous preparations, the army did not suffer too much damage.
He was so impressed that he was so proud of himself.
Of course, I have to say that Zhou Bo, who was behind them, was also a talented person. The two cooperated with each other to preserve the Qin army on the grassland.
Xiao He wanted to be humble at this time, and a Qin army hurriedly walked in and said,
"Your Highness the General and the Crown Prince urgently believe it!"
Han Xin quickly took the letter and opened it for a look. The admiration for Xiao He on his face became stronger and stronger. He said,
"Brother Xiao, you really expect something like a god. Your Highness the Crown Prince asked you to go back to the Great Wall immediately and prepare to arrange the spring plowing matters."
Xiao He couldn't help but nodded slightly complacently, and then asked,
"Did you say other things in the letter? I will take care of these things before I leave. Brother Han, it's easier."
Han Xin said quickly,
"There is indeed a big event. Your Majesty is about to tour the grassland north. He will first go to the place where the Xiongnu royal court is located, then turn here and then return to Xianyang from here."
Upon hearing this news, Xiao He's expression suddenly became serious.
"Your Majesty's Northern Tour is a big deal, Brother Han must not take it lightly."
"Otherwise, your prince will be powerless to do anything if he angers His Majesty."
Han Xin also looked solemn and nodded.
They all knew the reputation of the First Emperor, and they dared not easily touch the other party's majesty.
Han Xin said quickly,
"I will go to see you once, and I will come back to guard the border and ask Zhou Bo to accompany him. He is more familiar with this kind of thing."
Xiao He nodded. Zhou Bo is indeed much stronger when it comes to dealing with people.
Soon the two finalized the general plan to receive Qin Shihuang.
"Brother Han, I will leave a document before I leave. You can hand it over to Zhou Bo, and follow the above arrangement."
Han Xin nodded very obediently this time.
Now he is determined to get the title of king, as long as he can spend other things safely,
"By the way, His Highness the Crown Prince wants us to see where the old Shang Shanyu and the left Huns have arrived now."
Xiao He frowned slightly at this time.
"The Huns had left the sphere of influence of the western city-states before the beginning of winter last year, but we don't know much about the outside world."
"How can you know where they are?"
Xiao He couldn't help but sigh in his heart at this time, the world is really big now, but since His Royal Highness asked them, he still had to have an explanation, so he said,
"Brother Han, the city-state where Liu Bang is now is nominally the land of my Daqin. You might as well write to him and ask him."
Han Xin's eyes lit up when he heard this. He was just about to collect information from there. This was a good reason, so he nodded and said,
"Okay, I'll send a messenger to ask."
Soon the two finalized all the things to do, and a messenger was heading towards the northwest city-state.
A few days later, although the temperature in a city-state northwest of Daqin had only risen a little, the atmosphere was extremely warm, because today is the day of the Six Kingdoms City-Constitution Alliance.
It is rare for the people of the city-state to encounter such a celebration. Everyone is extremely happy. This is also related to their insecurity. Everyone does not know whether they will live tomorrow. The best choice is to enjoy it in time.
At this time, Liu Bang sat at the top in the palace of the city-state, and there were several kings of the city-states on both sides. The atmosphere was very harmonious at this time, because from now on, they were a very strong force in the city-states in the Western Regions!
"Everyone, come and drink this cup together. From then on, we will be the country of brothers!"
Liu Bang said loudly at this time, and there were servants around him who translated his words to others.
Soon, the kings of several other cities cheered together.
They were happy that they had found a strong backer.
But no one saw the cold light in Liu Bang's eyes.
These small city-states are not as good as a county town in Daqin. How could he look down on these, self-righteous, short-sighted, so-called kings.
According to Zhang Liang's plan, forming an alliance is just the first step, and then it is swallowing step by step.
Within five years, he will become the true king of all city-states!
Thinking of this, Liu Bang raised his head and drank the wine in his hand. As the smell of alcohol rose, his long-silent ambition was also his long-awaited ambition!
Yes, this is the courage that a real man should have!
When the banquet was in full swing, a servant hurried to Liu Bang and whispered something.
Liu Bang's face changed slightly. He found an excuse to walk outside and saw Zhang Liang waiting for him outside with a document.
Seeing Liu Bang come out, Zhang Liang said with a serious expression,
"Pei Gong, Han Xin has written a letter!"
"Letter from Han Xin?"
Liu Bang was slightly shocked. Although both sides did not break up, just by looking at the other party's defense, everyone knew that they knew it.
"What did he say? Do you want me to go back?"
Zhang Liang shook his head and said,
"I'm not surprised if this is the case, but the other party asked us to provide various information, such as finding out where the old Shang Shanyu of the Xiongnu was."
Hearing this, Liu Bang was stunned.
It seems that Han Xin really doesn’t treat him as an outsider, so what is the other party’s idea?
