XiangLiang's Raptor crossed the river

The Founding of the Han Empire

In early 208 BC, the zhang-chu governor of the Guangling Special Region (around present-day Yangzhou) summoned Ping to cross the river to find Xiangliang.

ZhaoPing, as the commissioner of Zhang Chu Guangling Special Area, has been pioneering in the Guangling area for several months, but unfortunately has not been able to gain a foothold.

Now zhangchu's capital, Chen County, had been taken by the Qin army, and the whereabouts of the great king Chen Sheng were unknown.

Zhao Ping knew that he was already a grasshopper on Zhang Chu's rope, and he couldn't run away, he wanted to save his life.

If before this, Zhao Ping was still willing to put up the shelf of the commissioner and was reluctant to share it with others, now in order to save his life, he could not take care of anything.

However, Zhao Ping did not make a name for himself in Guangling, and he now had nothing in his hand except the commissioner hat.

Now Zhang Chu has been beaten up, and this hat is not worth much.

Zhao Ping thought about it, thinking that he could be bolder, what kind of vain hat of the prime minister and the prince, I could discount wholesale.

Anyway, King Chen Sheng and his ministers are now dead or alive, and no one can take care of me.

To put it bluntly, ZhaoPing's immediate priority is to find someone to take over.

To his surprise, he found that Xiang Liang, who would be in charge, showed great interest.

The two sides hit it off, and Zhao Ping casually sent a Zhang Chu regime shangzhu guo, equivalent to a big general's hat to Xiang Liang.

In exchange, Xiang Liang hung Zhang Chu's banner, so that Zhaoping was naturally protected and his official position might be promoted.

How to see, it is also summoned to the white wolf with flat gloves.

Why was Xiang Liang willing to be summoned to pingtao?

This is because Xiang Liang has carefully deduced the situation of the Golden Jianghuai.

Jianghuai is bounded by the Huai River, which can be roughly divided into Huaibei and Huainan, and after Chen Sheng's uprising, the first to be lively is Huaibei.

Xiang Liang's decision to officially enter the market is precisely to see the trajectory of the change in the situation in Huaibei and discover the huge opportunities contained in it.

Huaibei is north of the Huai River, mainly including Chen County, Yan County, Surabaya County, and Donghae County. We can review the "Key" section and compare it to the map above,

Chen County was the capital of the Zhang Chu regime, located in the upper reaches of the Huai River, and we counted them in the baiyin river.

Yan County was the place where Liu Bang fled, and at this time it belonged to the area between hills and swamps.

Surabaya County is Liu Bang's hometown, and here is the important town of Pengcheng, which is today's Xuzhou, which belongs to the richest and most prosperous piece of Huaibei.

To the north of Surabaya is the Great Lake Juyeze, and the Huai River water system and the Yellow River water system at that time can be interconnected through Juyeze.

During the Warring States period, a chasm was also built to open up the entire Huai River and the Yellow River system.

Therefore, the Wei and Qi states in the Yellow River Basin have very convenient transportation with The counties of Yan and Surabaya, and they will undoubtedly exert a great influence on the struggle for hegemony in this area.

For example, Liu Bang made a name for himself in Surabaya very early.

Unfortunately, the talent was famous, and the old nest Fengyi was reversed by Wei Guoce. Liu Bang tossed for several months and failed to take the old nest back.

Not to mention, it belonged to the territory of the State of Wei during the Warring States period, and the State of Wei had a deep penetration of this place.

Therefore, the four counties of Huaibei were the first to toss out the famous Donghai County.

Donghai County is today's Linyi in Shandong to Zhangjiagang in northern Jiangsu, and can be extended to Nanjing and Yangzhou in the south.

Donghai County was blocked by the Yimeng Mountains to the north, Hai to the east, and Yan County and Surabaya County to the west undertook the pressure of the State of Qi and the State of Wei for him.

In this way, all kinds of local tycoons can develop freely in Donghae County without interference.

After several months of development, Donghae-gun has roughly formed the following large teams:

Qin Jia team, Dong Fei team, Zhu Jishi team, Zheng Bu team, Ding Disease team.

There is also a mysterious team of Dongyang Ningjun, who appeared frequently in the Qin Jia era and had a deep intersection with Liu Bang.

Dongyang Ningjun was the second largest man in Donghai County after Qin Jia, but then disappeared.

Considering that Dongyang later had a clear giant-level big man Chen Bao, it is unlikely that a county will produce a big guy of such a magnitude, so many people in later generations think that Dongyang Ningjun is Chen Baby.

This series also equates Dongyang Ningjun and Chen Bao as the same person.

These teams are basically the teams that each county won in the first round of the sea, and now it is time to start the second round of the audition.

Everyone acquiesced to such a rule of sea selection, that is, to attack Tan County, where the Imperial East Sea County was located, and in the process of attacking the enemy, the winner of the sea election was decided by the way.

The feat of the major teams in the East China Sea besieging Tan County, where the county was located, attracted the attention of Chen Sheng, who decided to send a special commissioner to the East China Sea to guide the work.

Chen Sheng had undergone some careful screening in the selection of commissioners in the East China Sea Battlefield, and it was WuPing Junpan who was dispatched.

During the Warring States period in the East China Sea, it belonged to the State of Chu, Chen County, where Chen Sheng was active, also belonged to the State of Chu, and Most of the Wuping Junpan were also Chu people.

Wu Pingjun was the title of this person, which meant that this person was a high-ranking nobleman of the Qing rank in the Chu State.

Chen Sheng's status as a commissioner in several other directions was mediocre, and he had specially sent a high-ranking old nobleman for a Donghai County, which showed his importance.

At that time, Chen Sheng had already been defeated by the Qin army, and all the commissioners who had come out of the hall of fame had set up their own portals, and they had nothing to do with him.

Chen Sheng needs to find a reliable back road, the East China Sea side is huge and has not ended the audition, it seems to be an ideal back road.

Now that the ball is at the feet of the teams in the East China Sea, how to face Wu Pingjun, the commissioner?

The most anxious is probably the strongest Qin Jia team.

Qin Jia had already set his sights on the position of the boss of the East Sea, and now that a Wu Pingjun had landed, he was definitely not happy. You Chen Sheng have been defeated and retreated, and now you still want to send a special commissioner to take a big seal and come to me to drink five or six?

So Qin Jia's team did not do one, two without stopping, and the fire and dropped the commissioner Wu Pingjun.

About a short time later, Donghae County's Zhi Tan County was taken, and Qin Jia's team won the second round of sea selection in Donghae County.

After taking the position of the boss of the East Sea, Qin Jia's team naturally had higher ambitions.

The current situation was that Zhang Chu had been destroyed, Chen Sheng's whereabouts were unknown, and the main force of the Qin army had gone north to Linji, the capital of the State of Wei.

Qin Jia's team obviously believes that the interests of the boss of Donghai County can no longer satisfy themselves, and now is a good time for stud.

So Qin Jia's team decided to stand on their own and restore the Chu kingdom together with Chen Bao and other bigwigs.

The next question is, who should be the king of the newly formed Chu state?

Of course, Qin Jia wanted to establish himself as king like Tian Dan, Wu Chen, and Han Guang, but he probably couldn't do it.

Qin Jia is the strongest, but Chen Bao, Dong Xuan, Zhu Jishi, Zheng Bu, Ding Yi, etc. are also the winners of the first round of auditions.

If they unite against Qin Jia, then Qin Jia will definitely not look at it enough.

Qin Jia finally did not dare to establish himself as king, and set up a Jingju as a puppet King of Chu.

Jing is a surname of the Chu State, one of the three major dukes, and the establishment of a figure with the surname of Jing is equivalent to establishing a senior figure that everyone can accept.

In this way, Qin Jia, Chen Bao, and several large teams of Donghai took Jingju as the head of the sheep, hung the banner of the Chu State, and set up the shelf.

This team is not small, and it has also received some recognition, such as Liu Bang's desperate time to pray to Jingju for help.

However, the Chu state that the East China Sea team put together had a big flaw, that is, Jingju's appeal was still too small.

The Jing family is also a family of the three veterans of the Chu Kingdom, and its influence is not to say that it is compared with the royal family, that is, it is better than the Xiang family.

Whose sign to hang is not only a matter of name, but also determines the fundamental distribution order.

Hanging the sign of Jingju means that people who can be related to the Jing family will naturally have a better chance to sit in the front row of the future regime, and if they can't do anything, it will be much more difficult for them to find a position in the future regime.

In Huaibei, especially in the East China Sea, the Jing family may have some prestige, and it may be easier for everyone to have something to do with the Jing family.

But what about elsewhere?

Can the Xiangliang team of Huijian and the Xiangjia of Xiang county in Surabaya County recognize the Jingjia? Are you willing to rely on the relationship with Jing Jia to mix the future?

The wu rui and Yingbu teams in jiangxi and hunan in the middle reaches of the Yangtze River are now mixed up and jointly crossed the river to recover Chen County, the capital of Zhangchu.

Can they recognize the Jing family? Are you willing to rely on the relationship with Jing Jia to mix the future?

Chen Sheng's lüchen team, which is now fighting guerrillas in Henan and Anhui, is also very well mixed, can they recognize the Jing family? Are you willing to rely on the relationship with Jing Jia to mix the future?

Qin Jia's team hung up the banner of the Chu State, but they were only willing to find a Jingju to be the King of Qin, mostly because they did not dare or want to pull a bigger puppet, for fear of not being able to control the various teams that swarmed.

Qin Jia's team was reluctant to pull a tiger skin that was bigger than Donghai County, but wanted to hang the banner of the entire Chu State, and even wanted to inherit Chen Sheng's position as the boss of the anti-Qin alliance.

When Qin Jia established the State of Chu, the Qin army was besieging the capital of the State of Wei, and from a strategic point of view, the State of Chu and the State of Qi naturally wanted to rescue the State of Wei.

So Qin Jia's team decided to take their own more comfortable route, attacking Dingtao on the outskirts of the Qin army, and also sent people to invite the State of Qi to cooperate in the battle.

Qin Jia's meaning was simple: King Chen Sheng sent a telegram to the whole country to work together to overthrow the reactionary rule of the Qin Empire.

Now that Chen Sheng has lost, my Chu state has inherited Chen Sheng's legacy, so you Qi guo should join me in completing the unfinished great cause of King Chen Sheng.

When King Tian Dan of Qi heard that he was angry, would Lao Tzu be willing to save the State of Wei, and from which route to save the State of Wei, that was Lao Tzu's own affair, and you had a relationship with Qin Jia, who did not know where it came from?

Without saying a word, Tian Danzai slaughtered the emissary Gongsun Qingzai sent by Qin Jia and told Qin Jia that Zhang Chu Chen Sheng, the great king Lao Zi, recognized that you Qin Jia and Jing Ju were bullshit, and Lao Tzu did not recognize them.

Xiang Liang carefully observed the situation in Huaibei and decided decisively that I was going to enter the situation.

As long as I play the banner of Zhang Chu, I can quickly lay the victory.

At present, the active territory of the Chu state is mainly in the south of huainan huaibei and the south of the river, in addition to the headquarters of xiangliang and xiangjia, there are generally the following teams:

Qin Jia, Chen Bao, Dong Yi, Zhu Jishi, Zheng Bu, and Ding Yi of the East China Sea;

Yingbu, Pu (as Wu Rui's general), lü chen, who were active in the area around Chen County;

Liu Bang, who was active in Surabaya County;

Of course, there are many other small teams that are still being selected.

If these teams want to be integrated, they must be seated, and if they want to be seated, they must have an order that everyone recognizes.

The only thing that can make these teams approve is Chen Sheng's Zhang Chu regime. Because only Chen Sheng can relate to everyone.

With the speed and strength of the response to Chen Sheng, everyone will not suffer losses and will accept it.

Xiang Liang resolutely raised the banner of Zhang Chu to cross the river north and compete for supremacy over the golden Jianghuai.

As a result, Yingbu, General Pu, the Headquarters of the Xiang Family, and even Chen Bao of the Qin Jia camp all recognized and quickly joined the Zhang Chu Branch formed by Xiang Liang.

Qin Jia's Dong Yi, Zhu Jishi, Zheng Bu, Ding Yi and others probably would not oppose Xiang Liang's new team.

As a result, Qin Jia lost all his chips and quickly perished.

Xiang Liang's troops going north were only 8,000 men, and the troops of Yingbu, General Pu, Xiang Jia's headquarters, Chen Nian, and others were not worse than him, and even much stronger than him.

Why is everyone willing to gather around a beam that is not stronger than them? Because Xiang Liang dared to raise the flag at this time, no one else dared to fight, and naturally he was happy to have someone take the lead.

Why are everyone willing to let Xiang Liang take the lead instead of Qin Jia? Because the Zhang Chu banner raised by Xiang Liang accurately grasped everyone's psychology and satisfied everyone's fundamental interests.

It is easy for us to have the illusion that the cattle people who came out of the chaotic world must have been like Xiang Yu recorded in the history books, practicing the sword method to ward off evil spirits and killing one person with one sword.

If we follow this understanding, how did people like Jin Rong and Du Yuesheng, who have no power to bind chickens, become the boss of the shanghai beach underworld?

When the chaos first began, I did not dare to say that absolutely everyone was equal, but it must be the moment when the world was relatively equal to the opportunity.

When the opportunity comes, whether you are a "little guy" depends on your usual accumulation, but how do many "little guys" become big guys?

When to enter the market, in what capacity, and in what way, is often the decisive decision.

In an instant, hundreds of millions of people were divided into high and low.
