The world is in turmoil, with rebels rising up in Sishui County and Chen County, but there is no peace in Kuaiji County far away in the east of the Yangtze River. The Xiang family has deep roots in Kuaiji, and they are also lying dormant, waiting for an opportunity to rise up and regain the Chu Kingdom.

At this time, in the secret room of Lu Mansion, three large boxes were placed in front of everyone. The lids of each box were open. The first box contained swords, and the second and third boxes mainly contained swords.

The most important thing is the head of the enemy and the head of the spear. These will become the capital for the Xiang family to get started.

At this time, Xiang Liang picked up an iron sword in front of the box and waved it in his hand. The iron sword was heavy and the sharp edge made people shudder. Moreover, it had an effect that a copper sword could not match.

Hard sword body and sharp blade.

But this kind of sword is extremely difficult to produce. It is said that steel can be made from a hundred times. At this time, the Xiang family did not have the ability to produce large-scale production. They only made more than 20 iron swords like this. Most of them still produced copper swords. But with

Under the guidance of Xuanzi, the bronze swords made by the Xiang family are all four feet long. This is an obvious advantage on the battlefield.

Xiang Liang nodded with satisfaction, put the iron sword back into the box, and picked up the Ge Tou from another box. The Ge Tou was cast in bronze and polished by craftsmen. It was as sharp as ever and played a leading role on the battlefield.

Looking at the three boxes of weapons, Xiang Liang laughed loudly: "Zhuang'er, you did a good job, I am very satisfied."

Xiang Zhuang smiled and cupped his hands: "Uncle, you are so complimentary."

Xiang Liang waved his hand and said with a smile: "You have done a good job."

At this time, Xiang Bo came over, picked up the iron sword, looked at it, and explored the blade with his hand. It was extremely sharp. He couldn't help laughing and said: "Although we have iron smelting technology, how can we increase production?

Further research is needed, Zhuang'er, I hope you can resolve this matter as soon as possible."

Xiang Zhuang looked at Xiang Bo, nodded and said: "I will visit Xuanzi again, hoping to get his help to increase the production speed of iron swords."

Everyone nodded slightly. At this time, the guard knocked on the door. Soon, a voice came from outside the door: "Mr. Liang, a message from the county government has come. The county governor wants to see you."

"I know." Xiang Liang replied displeasedly. At this time, he looked at Xiang Bo beside him and ordered: "Transfer these weapons to the treasury of the back house. Be careful not to expose them."

After saying that, Xiang Liang strode towards the secret room.

...

In the governor's house, Yin Tong paced back and forth in front of the desk. Chen County fell, and Chen Sheng established the Zhang Chu regime in Chen County. At this time, the whole country of Qin was in turmoil. Although the court did not send out large-scale troops to suppress arrests, Yin Tong knew that the Qin State was

After years of tyranny, people have lost their support. It is not easy to suppress the rebellion.

And, more importantly, Jiangbei is in turmoil and Jiangdong will not be stable. Where should I go? Recruit troops to suppress bandits or seek self-reliance?

From the current point of view, Yin Tong prefers the latter. He has established two thousand private troops in Kuaiji. As long as he woos the powerful people in Luliang and Kuaiji counties, gathers soldiers and horses, and recruits heroes from all over, it will not be difficult to stand on his own.

.

Moreover, what Yin Tong valued most was that Jiangdong was extremely far away from the political center of the imperial court. Even if the Qin State intended to suppress Jiangdong and send troops back and forth, it would still take half a month. Moreover, Jiangdong was also in danger of the Yangtze River, and the Qin army wanted to cross the river.

It is even more difficult.

Just when Yin Tong was thinking wildly and wandering around, a soldier walked in quickly and reported: "Sir, Lu Liang is waiting in the side hall."

Yin Tong nodded and walked quickly to the side hall.

Xiang Liang had sat down at the table at this time. The soldiers brought tea. Xiang Liang picked up the tea cup and took a sip. Although the aroma of the tea was overflowing, Xiang Liang was not in the mood to taste the tea at this time. He held the tea cup and thought about it.

But Zhong was thinking quickly. Yin Tong was eager to find him. What could happen?

But Xiang Liang was puzzled. Has he ever thought about whether his identity has been exposed? But judging from the current situation, it should not be the case. Otherwise, Yin Tong would not beat around the bush and invite him here. He only needs to dispatch troops and generals.

Then you can catch yourself. While Xiang Liang was thinking about this, rapid footsteps sounded, and soon, Yin Tong walked in quickly.

"Keep Mr. Liang waiting." Yin Tong walked in with a smile. Xiang Liang hurriedly stood up, cupped his hands and saluted: "Lü Liang, please give your regards to the governor."

"There is no need to be so polite between you and me." Yin Tong smiled and waved his hand, and the two of them took their seats respectively. At this time, the soldier brought another cup of tea, put it in front of Yin Tong, saluted and left. At this time, Yin Tong picked up the cup

Tea cup, but he did not drink it, but looked at Xiang Liang and asked in a deep voice: "Did Mr. Liang ever hear that Chen Sheng and Wu Guang rose up in Qixian County, and the war was raging everywhere. At this time, Chen Sheng and others had already entered Chen County

, established the Zhang Chu regime there, and formally fought against the imperial court."

Xiang Liang didn't expect that Yin Tong came to him for this matter. He thought for a moment and couldn't help but smile: "I've heard a little bit about it, but I think this news may be untrue."

When Yin Tong saw what Xiang Liang said, he became interested and couldn't help laughing and said: "Why did Mr. Liang say this?"

"I heard that Chen Sheng started out as a tenant farmer. Because the imperial court conscripted Dingbei garrison, he had to enlist in the army and went north with the army. So, how could such a humble young man serve hundreds of thousands of Chu people?" Xiang Liang said.

At this point, he looked sideways at Yin Tong. Yin Tong also fell into deep thought at this time. Soon, he wondered: "What Mr. Liang means, there must be someone behind Chen Sheng?"

Xiang Liang nodded and said with a smile: "I heard that Chen Sheng sent a message to all directions, threatening that Chu general Xiang Yan is in the army and should lead his army westward to attack Qin. I think this is true."

After Xiang Liang finished speaking, he sneered unconsciously. Xiang Yan was his father and had already died on the battlefield. He said this now just to increase Yin Tong's doubts and see what his plan was. Sure enough, Yin Tong

After a moment of silence, he sighed and said: "To be honest with Mr. Liang, several forces have risen in the world at this time. As the governor of Kuaiji County, I also want to occupy a place. If Mr. Liang is willing to help me, the country will be rejuvenated in the future, and Mr. Liang will be the leader."

This is the first achievement.”

Xiang Liang guessed that Yin Tong was indeed plotting rebellion, which just played into Xiang Liang's plan. Xiang Liang came to Yin Tong's side, pretending to be mysterious, and asked softly: "What are your plans, Lord Sheriff?"

"I heard that the warrior Huan Chu was abandoned in the mountains. I want to win over him. Together with the soldiers from Kuaiji County and my private army, we can stand on our own. There is no problem at all." Yin Tong said softly.

After a brief reflection, Xiang Liang believed that the time was ripe. He couldn't help but smile and said: "My nephew Xiang Yu knows Huan Chu. We might as well ask him to lobby. He will surely convince Huan Chu to come to the capital."

"Great!" Yin Tong was overjoyed and stood up suddenly. At this time, Xiang Liang cupped his hands and said, "In that case, I'll go back and make preparations and ask my nephew Xiang Yu to come and take orders tomorrow."

Yin Tong nodded and said happily: "Then we have an agreement."

...

Returning to Lu Mansion, Xiang Liang immediately asked Xiang Taida to gather everyone for a meeting in the secret room, and he went straight to the secret room.

About half an hour later, everyone came one after another. When Xiang Liang saw that everyone had arrived, he ordered the dead man to close the door of the secret room. The room was dark. Two oil lamps were lit and the room became bright again. At this time, Xiang Liang coughed dryly.

With a cry, he sneered: "The opportunity I was looking forward to has finally arrived."

Xiang Liang's eyes wandered on everyone's faces, and after a brief silence, Xiang Liang said again: "Yin Tong will summon Yu'er tomorrow. At that time, we can take the opportunity to kill Yin Tong, occupy Wu County, and call on all parties to rise up in Kuaiji."

Xiang Liang's words made everyone's blood boil, and they couldn't help but secretly cheer. At this time, Xiang Yu said with a smile: "Uncle, don't worry, Yin Tong is a common man, I will definitely take his dog's head with one sword!"

Everyone in the room burst into laughter. Xiang Zhuang and Xiang You also stood up one after another and said with a smile: "I am willing to listen to my uncle's arrangements."

Seeing the high morale of everyone, Xiang Liang flattened the map on the table. It was a geographical map of Wuxian County, with the geographical location of Wuxian County covering a radius of hundreds of miles. At this time, when everyone's eyes were focused on the map

, Xiang Liang said with a smile: "Yin Tong intends to recruit Huan Chu, and I have agreed to do it in the name of Yu'er. When the time comes, Yu'er carries a short blade and follows me into the inner office, waiting for an opportunity to kill Yin Tong and take his head to order the three armies.

."

"I'm willing to go through fire and water for my uncle!" Xiang Yu handed over his hand. At this time, Xiang Liang continued: "Zhuang'er, You'er, you two will take the dead men of the Xiang family and Yu'er's private army to control the major intersections and cities in Wuxian County.

Gate, half an hour after Yu'er and I enter the house, you two can come with troops to meet us, there must be no mistake!"

"Don't worry, uncle, we will do our best to ensure that uncle and Brother Yu return safely!" Xiang Liang nodded and said: "Xiang Sheng, you go and invite Long Qie to join us. Xiang Ta, you go and invite Huan Chu to come down the mountain.

, Uncle Xiang, you set out tonight to summon the Xiang family members to meet in Kuaiji."

Everyone clasped their fists, Xiang Liang nodded and ordered: "Everyone go and prepare."

...

Everyone left one after another, but Xiang Liang winked at Xiang Zhuang, and Xiang Zhuang stayed. After everyone left, the door of the secret room was closed again. At this time, Xiang Liang put away the map and looked at it.

Looking at Xiangzhuang, he couldn't help but smile and said: "You have been managing the iron shop for some time. Now, the Xiang family is in trouble. It is the time to hire people. I have decided to replace someone to take over the iron shop. Who do you think can take on this important task?"

Seeing that Xiang Liang was serious, Xiang Zhuang gradually understood. It seemed that Xiang Liang had decided to incorporate himself into the military. Thinking of this, Xiang Zhuang lowered his head and thought for a moment, and couldn't help but smile: "I think Hua Yu can take over as the craftsman."

Shop, he has been with me for a while, so he should have no problem with this."

Hearing this, Xiang Liang nodded, "Since you think it's okay, leave the duties to him these days. I believe in your vision."

Xiang Zhuang cupped his hands and said with a smile: "I will find him tonight, and he can take over the shop tomorrow."

After saying that, Xiang Zhuang looked at Xiang Liang and said, "If there's nothing else, I'll leave first."

After leaving the secret room, Xiang Zhuang went straight to Xiang Sheng's room. Soon, he walked into Xiang Sheng's room. At this time, he was cleaning his sword with linen cloth. Xiang Zhuang took out a jade pendant from his arms and gave it to Xiang Sheng.

He told them: "After you go north, you can take a detour to Suiyang. The Kong family in Suiyang has an appointment with me. You should hand the jade pendant to them and tell them that I will go there in person soon."

Xiang Sheng took the jade pendant, put it in his arms, smiled and cupped his hands, "Don't worry, Mr. Zhuang, I will definitely handle this matter well."
