The video takes us to ancient times; Li Er transforms into the Tongtian Emperor of Shu Han.

"..."

"So, you didn't come here specifically to try and sabotage me, did you?"

Zhang Liang gave another bitter smile.

How could he not know what Li Er was saying?

In this situation, even if Qin were to fall, or even if Han were to be restored, they would still be at the mercy of others.

Is that really the country he envisioned?

But he couldn't think about these things.

He could only firmly believe that he would be able to lead his former officials to restore his old country.

Only in this way could he maintain his firm belief and keep going.

"On the contrary, I'm here to give you a chance."

"Others may only see you as pawns, but if you are willing to help me, after we achieve great things in the future, I will help you restore Han. You can choose to be the King of Han or the Prime Minister of Han."

Another pie in the sky.

But Zhang Liang still dared not accept.

Or perhaps he simply doesn't believe it.

“Brother, I see ambition in your eyes. Although we have only exchanged a few words, my intuition tells me that you are the same kind of person as the Qin Emperor.”

"But I'm curious, you're just a mere Sishui Pavilion Chief from Pei County, with nothing behind you."

"Qin Shi Huang was able to conquer the six states because he had the legacy of six generations of Qin people and the fearlessness of countless Qin people. But what do you have?"

These questions made Li Er feel somewhat ashamed, and even Liu Bang outside the canopy broke out in a cold sweat.

I never expected that at this moment, Zifang would be so scathing and insightful!

Every word you said makes perfect sense!

Liu Bang couldn't understand how Li Er had the audacity to try and win over these extraordinary talents when he had nothing!

Xiao He was one thing, since they had known each other for decades and he was relatively easy to trust.

However, this kind of empty promise wasn't very effective with Zhang Liang. As a strategist, he was also adept at making empty promises to people.

"Marquis Liu is still clear-headed. Words and empty promises are not enough to make him obediently submit."

Old Zhu is really looking forward to it.

If the flatbread doesn't work, what other methods does Li Er have?

"I have a feeling that Zhang Liang is already somewhat tempted."

Zhao Kuangyin looked somewhat puzzled.

"There's no doubt that Zifang is tempted, but the offer from Li Er isn't enough."

Although he was reluctant to admit it, Liu Bang had to say that Li Er was quite adept at making empty promises!

Within the canopy, what Liu Bang could see, Li Er could naturally see even more clearly from Zhang Liang's slightly wavering eyes!

Not enough chips?

Then add more!

It's just a flatbread!

As long as you, Zhang Liang, can eat it all, I'll draw until you're stuffed!

"I really have nothing right now, you don't need to doubt your judgment."

"It is precisely because I have nothing that I can grant you these conditions."

"But you don't need to worry too much. I don't need you to make a decision now. Instead, I can make a bet with you. When the Great Qin is in turmoil in the future, I can raise an army of 30,000 with a single call. At that time, you can come and join me. All the agreements we made today will still be valid."

"If by then I can't muster a large army in a short time, you can wait and sell yourself for a higher price, how about that?"

It's that familiar taste again.

It's exactly the same as the flatbread that Xiao He was fed!

But the smarter a person is, the more willing they are to fall for this.

They agreed, and if Li Er fails to do so, they will not suffer any loss.

If this is achieved, then the investment will definitely not be a loss.

"If I were to assist you in achieving great things, would you truly be willing to help me restore the Han dynasty, rather than acting like the Qin Emperor?"

Zhang Liang was tempted again.

But at this point, he remained cautious.

"Of course, but there is also an agreement. Since you have figured it out, I will not hide it from you. I do indeed share the same wish as the Qin Emperor: to truly achieve the unification of the world."

"However, you are an exception. I can help you restore Han and give you ten years. If, after ten years, the Han under your rule is stronger than mine, I will keep you and your country."

Li Er knew all too well how dangerous clever people could be.

He can find every illogical point in your words.

Therefore, he made no attempt to hide anything and told Zhang Liang everything.

"That's quite frank."

Upon receiving such a frank answer, Zhang Liang couldn't help but chuckle.

He had studied some physiognomy.

Judging from Li Er's eyes, his imposing demeanor without anger, and the confidence he unconsciously exuded.

It is definitely not something that can be confined to a small pond!

This wasn't the first time he'd met someone like this.

However, the last time he felt this way was when he assassinated Qin Emperor Ying Zheng in Bolangsha!

After forcing himself to stare into Li Er's eyes for a long time, Zhang Liang slowly lowered his head.

“Liang, we will be setting off for Pei County soon. If the Qin Dynasty is in turmoil at that time, we will not need 30,000 troops. If you can gather 10,000 troops, I will be willing to serve you.”

"But this only represents me. I have no right to, nor will I, interfere with, what the other former officials of my homeland think."

"And if I had discovered before then that you were not a wise ruler, I would have left on my own, and I hope you would not have stopped me then."

Get it!

Upon hearing this, Li Er immediately smiled.

He selectively ignored the latter part of Zhang Liang's words.

what?

Am I not a wise ruler?

joke!

I am comparable to the ancients, and countless successors can only look up to me!

If I am not a wise ruler, then there will be no wise ruler in this world!

Tell Xiao He that I can recruit Zhang Liang into the army.

Tell Zhang Liang that I can raise an army of 30,000 to start a rebellion.

Now, all that's left to deal with is Han Xin from Huaiyin!

If we can also get Han Xin under control, then these three will form a perfect closed loop!

After all, for Li Er, what he valued more than Han Xin's talent in commanding troops was that guy's ability to rapidly build up an army!

Even when viewed from the perspective of later generations, Han Xin's actions seem equally incomprehensible!

When ordinary feudal lords recruit soldiers, they almost always do so in their own territories, and it takes a long time to train them to the point where they can go to war.

But Han Xin was different from everyone else.

Wherever this person is, as long as he is given free rein, he can quickly build up a large army capable of going to the battlefield and even fighting tough battles.

It can be said that Liu Bang's ability to maintain a stalemate with Xiang Yu on the main battlefield and to have a near-inexhaustible supply of soldiers was largely due to Han Xin.

Moreover, Li Er clearly remembered that, according to historical records, when Han Xin fought the Battle of Back River, he led 30,000 new soldiers!

Thirty thousand new recruits were enough to defeat Zhao's two hundred thousand elite troops!

The victory in this battle was inseparable from Han Xin's command ability, but it also demonstrated his ability to train troops.

If they were just new recruits trained by ordinary generals, let alone winning a battle with their backs to the river and defeating a larger force with fewer troops, they would easily collapse in a battle with equal numbers of soldiers!

This also demonstrates Han Xin's abilities.

With Zhang Liang secured, the promise made to Xiao He was fulfilled.

Once Han Xin is dealt with, the promised 30,000 troops to Zhang Liang will be secured.

As for what that troublemaker Han Xin needs...

He's nothing more than the Grand Marshal of all the armies in the land!

If he wants it, General Tian Ce can bestow it upon him without hesitation. In any case, I can accomplish the task with my own strength!
