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

Chapter 262 Then go and fetch the horse, my Marquis of Huaiyin

Would Han Xin agree?

This is something that countless people are curious about.

For Li Er, if he wanted to resolve the chaos at the end of the Qin Dynasty as quickly as possible, then none of the three heroes of the early Han Dynasty could be missing.

Even Liu Bang had to admit it.

Without Han Xin, the Chu-Han Contention would have become a joke, and he would have been confined to Hanzhong for the rest of his life!

"We think that Han Xin, with his proud nature, would not be able to tolerate this."

"Not only did they give him a hard time right from the start, but they also explicitly rejected his idea of ​​being made a king. How could he agree to that?"

After finishing Zhu Di's cigarette, Old Zhu was satisfied. He looked up at the sky and casually expressed his opinion.

"I also think that although Han Xin was able to endure the humiliation of crawling between someone's legs, he never really took that butcher seriously, and he never even considered those people as his own kind."

Zhao Kuangyin thought for a moment and said.

He had just said that he admired Li Er for coming up with such a way to suppress Han Xin's arrogance.

However, if the words are spoken too clearly, it will greatly reduce the possibility of Han Xin surrendering.

"You are all wrong."

Liu Bang sighed softly.

"Han Xin will definitely agree."

"He is indeed a proud man, but he is also a smart man."

"Once Li Er has demonstrated his abilities, he will weigh the gains and losses of his choices."

"By rejecting Li Er, he would have to create such a terrifying opponent to realize his ambitions."

"At least until he figured out how Li Er saw through his thoughts and cracked his military strategy, he would not rashly create this enemy."

Han Xin was indeed somewhat slow to grasp domestic affairs, but apart from that, he had almost no weaknesses.

His arrogance was only directed at those he looked down upon.

In the original course of history, he looked down on everyone except Xiao He, who introduced him.

But as long as you can prove that you are better than him and that you can be superior to him, he will consider the gains and losses and treat you as an equal.

At the same time, everything happening inside the canopy seemed to confirm Liu Bang's words.

Li Er waited in Huaiyin for only two days. On the morning of the third day, as soon as he pushed open the door of the inn, he saw Han Xin sitting quietly at the door.

"If I go with you, will you provide meals?"

"Food and lodging included. In the entire Pei County, whatever you want to eat, just mention my name...Liu Bang!"

"No problem, I'll go with you. I want to be the Grand Marshal of the Army. If you really achieve great things in the future, I want to be ennobled as a marquis."

Han Xin said expressionlessly.

His tone was extremely calm, as if he were certain that Li Er would agree.

"Then go and fetch the horse, my Marquis of Huaiyin."

Li Er raised an eyebrow.

"The minister obeys the order!"

They got into character pretty quickly!

Seeing Han Xin's sensible expression, Li Er was satisfied.

Before coming here, he had only seen Han Xin in historical records and could not be sure of the man's character.

Therefore, his original plan was to recruit Xiang Yu's only strategist after he had won over the three heroes of the early Han Dynasty.

Fan Zeng was used to check and balance Han Xin.

However, it now seems obvious that there's no need to go through with that.

In a sense, Han Xin was very sensible.

Once he recognizes the situation, he will quickly give in to the situation that he is powerless to change.

He wouldn't care about anything else as long as he could achieve his ambitions.

Is there a difference between being granted the title of Marquis and being granted the title of King?

At least for him, there was no difference.

Then, time passed rapidly within the celestial canopy.

In the following period, Li Er was not as eager as he had initially appeared.

He didn't rush to recruit soldiers or horses, nor did he rush to recruit other talents from the late Qin and early Han dynasties.

He seemed to truly see himself as a wandering knight-errant, spending his days idly, helping the weak and punishing the strong, and occasionally taking Han Xin to suppress bandits to hone his skills.

Until the First Emperor died at the Shaqiu Palace, as recorded in historical records.

Fusu committed suicide under a forged imperial edict, and Meng Tian also died unjustly.

Hu Hai ascended the throne.

Later, Li Si was framed by Zhao Gao, executed by being cut in half at the waist in the marketplace, and his entire family was exterminated.

From then on, the entire Qin Dynasty experienced an explosion under immense pressure.

Hu Hai lacked the ability to maintain high pressure, nor the ability to appease, so he could only send the Qin Dynasty to the executioner's block in his own way, with the help of Zhao Gao.

However, this time, before Chen Sheng and Wu Guang could launch their uprising at Daze Mountain, Li Er took the lead in raising the banner of rebellion.

Just as he promised Zhang Liang, he deliberately promoted his image as a generous and magnanimous person over the past two years.

When the Qin dynasty issued an edict to further increase taxes and corvée labor, Li Er immediately executed the county magistrate he had supported for so many years and raised his arm in protest.

Tens of thousands of people gathered in Pei County in just over a month.

The promise made to Zhang Liang was fulfilled so easily.

From that point on, Li Er was completely on the right track.

Xiao He was in charge of logistics and internal affairs management, while Zhang Liang was responsible for making decisions on major directions and assisting Xiao He in handling internal affairs.

Han Xin was in charge of training the troops.

Li Er, with his body half-buried in the ground, personally led the army to resist the imperial court's punitive expedition.

Because without Chen Sheng and Wu Guang, and without the Dazexiang Uprising, Pei County became a thorn in the side of the imperial court.

Similarly, it became a source of hope for countless people who could not survive!

As their power grew rapidly, the number of troops sent by the imperial court to suppress them also increased dramatically.

"...How should I put it? If Zhao Gao keeps doing this 'little gourds saving their grandfathers' thing, Xiang Yu might not even have a chance to raise an army!"

What happened in the sky left Liu Bang speechless.

Just by counting on your fingers, Li Er has already repelled four attacks by the imperial court, annihilating at least several thousand enemies and capturing more than 20,000.

Even now, the nobles of the former six kingdoms have made no move.

It's not that they didn't want to, but that Li Er's success was too great, making it difficult for them to find a suitable opportunity!

Even if they also raised the banner of rebellion, they would still be in the face of the newly formed rebel army and Li Er's army, which had won many battles and forced the court into a series of defeats.

Anyone with a brain wouldn't have another choice.

They could only wait until the powerful rebel army in Pei County suffered a setback at the hands of the imperial court; that would be their best opportunity.

However, Li Er did not rush into action, but instead had Han Xin cooperate to gradually erode the surrounding areas.

The imperial army that suppressed the rebellion instead became the fuel for their growth and expansion!

Seeing that the area surrounding Pei County was being nibbled away, yet the imperial court still showed no sign of mobilizing the border troops to suppress the rebellion, the nobles of the six kingdoms finally could no longer sit still.

They realized something.

The best opportunity may no longer exist.

If we don't take action soon, we might not even get a sip of soup!

Li Er's actions revealed the weakness of the Qin Dynasty to the world, and as a result, the Qin Dynasty could no longer maintain its former high-pressure rule.

This is the difference between Hu Hai and Ying Zheng.

If it were Ying Zheng, he would have mobilized all his forces to suppress the rebellion the moment it broke out!

This is like a chicken delivered to our doorstep. After making an example of them, how many more years will those forces underwater and those nobles of the six kingdoms be able to behave themselves?

Unfortunately, Hu Hai lacked the courage, or rather, Zhao Gao, who controlled the court, didn't have this idea. He even thought of using the rebellion to eliminate dissidents!

Therefore, the Qin Dynasty was led to the execution ground.
