Chapter 90 Persuading to surrender 2
Sui He was pulled outside the tent by a team of Chu soldiers and beaten up. If Fan Zeng hadn't come out to stop him, he would have been beaten to death.
With his wounds, he returned to Xingyang. When he saw Wang Zhu, he said to himself, "Your Majesty, it's better not to be late. I will go to see King Yingbu of Jiujiang immediately."
Wang Zhuting wondered: "Why?" Youhe said how he was talking nonsense in front of Xiang Yu and General Chu, and then said, "I must go to Lu'an immediately."
Wang Zhudao; "The Chu army has been blocked all the way, how can you go?" Sui Hedao; "I am just disguised as a merchant to pass through the border." Wang Zhu shook his head and said, "That's too dangerous." Sui Hedao; "It's even more dangerous to take people there, but it's safe alone. To be quick, you must be ahead of Xiang Yu."
Suihe didn't bring his followers but only gold. He rushed along the way, traveling day and night to Lu'an. Lu'an was Suihe's hometown, and he was very familiar with the path.
Suihe arrived in Lu'an. He relied on his locals to open up the joints with gold and asked to meet Wang Yingbu, Jiujiang, as a private identity. When Yingbu heard this, Suihe was back and felt very angry. Didn't he run away? Why did he come back and do it? Can't he be able to make ends meet outside?
Ying Bu didn't see him at all, so he sent a doctor to drive him away.
Sui He thought, how could he have come to the King of Jiujiang's palace and return without success, so he said directly; "Please tell the King of Jiujiang that Sui He came to see the King of Qin according to the order of the King of Qin. The King of Qin has long envied the King of Jiujiang's heroic spirit. If the King of Jiujiang did not see him, the King of Qin would definitely think that the King of Jiujiang looked down on him. In this case, if the King of Jiujiang is in danger in the future, it will be difficult for the King of Qin to help. When he meets him, it has nothing to do with the overall situation and gives the King of Qin face. Why not do it?"
The doctor is a cultural person and knows diplomacy very well. He thought to himself that Sui He is really good at finding a new boss so soon. He turned around and reported to Ying Bu.
Ying Bu didn't take Sui He at all at all. He was drinking and having fun with his concubine. When the doctor came in to report this, he was both angry and helpless. Sui He changed his boss and had the face to see me.
"Let him in!"
Suihe walked into the house and saw Yingbu drinking and chatting with his concubine, so he ignored him. He knew that Yingbu was jealous of his farewell without saying goodbye, so he told his own house and said first: "The envoy of the Great Qin Dynasty, Suihe, met the King of Jiujiang." In this way, a private meeting turned into a diplomatic incident. It would be a bit embarrassing if Yingbu sat and drank again.
Ying Bu drove the concubine out of the house, turned around and sneered, "Suihe, you still have the face to come back. Can your actions be worthy of me?"
Sui He smiled and said, "It is precisely because Sui He feels sorry for the king of what he did before that he came back this time to remedy it."
Ying Bu said angrily, "Aren't you a lobbyist for the King of Qin? Tell you, don't say anything, but hurry back and tell the King of Qin that I, Ying Bu, is a subordinate of the King of Western Chu, and it is impossible to be with him, so that he will die as soon as possible." Sui He said; "The king's words are a bit too unconsidered. When Qin and Chu are fighting for power, the king is in Jiujiang, holding heavy troops in his hand, and is in a dangerous place. He is neither close to Chu nor Qin, so he wants to become an emperor."
Ying Bu stood up and said angrily, "Fuck, I am the subject of the overlord, of course I am close to Chu!" Sui He was surprised: "It is inappropriate for King Jiujiang to say this. Emperor Yi conferred the world as fourteen kings. These kings are all on equal terms, so there is a distinction between superiors and subordinates."
Ying Bu slapped the table and shouted, "You are asking knowingly. Since Xiang Yu calls himself the overlord of Western Chu, he means dominating the princes. He has always been conquered by his martial arts. If anyone is dissatisfied and is immediately attacked, I, Ying Bu, will not touch the egg on the stone!"
Sui He sneered, "Jiujiang King is just now thinking about loyalty to the overlord, it seems a bit too late. Thinking about the time when Xiang Yu sent troops to attack Qi and asked you to send troops, but you couldn't let you go out of illness; Tian Rong, the Qi Kingdom, came to attack Pengcheng, and you stood by and watched when he saw that he was dead. Peng Yue cut off the overlord's food route and you ignored him. Xiang Yu asked you to assassinate the Emperor Yi, but he insisted that King Hengshan follow him, which shows that he no longer trusts you. If the king thinks he is the subordinate of the King of Chu, then the ministers will not save him when he sees the king dies. How can this be the duty of being a minister? The King of Chu has long been resentful to you. The king resents his ministers, so can a minister have a good life? It is a matter of luck. Xiang Yu has not come to deal with the king now, but because he is fighting with the King of Qin, he has no time. When he frees up his hands, he will definitely deal with you.
The king is bound to die when he kisses Chu now. If he doesn't care, he will also affect the family and the young. If he kisses Qin, there are also the King of Qin and hundreds of thousands of Qin soldiers as the backing. The difference is so powerful that the king can see clearly than me."
Ying Bu originally wanted to send Sui He away in a few words, but he didn't expect that Sui He was confused by his words, but he didn't dare to slam out. A layer of sweat couldn't help but burst out from his black face, and he coughed, "Sui--General Sui, please sit down--" Sui He said, "There is a door."
"Can the King of Qin beat the Overlord? In my opinion, this is unlikely. The King of Qin in Xingyang City is defeated again and again, and he is no match for Xiang Yu at all." Ying Bu said the truth.
Sui He Qiao said with a lingering tongue; "That's because you don't know the specific situation. The Overlord was seriously injured in the war seven days ago. Now the Chu army is retreating step by step, and the food and grass are seriously insufficient. The Qin army has basically taken the initiative in the war. It is time for the King of Jiujiang to abandon the darkness and turn to the light."
Sui He made a decision without authorization and wrote a blank check for Yingbu: "The King of Qin said that as long as the King of Jiujiang can surrender to Qin, you will be immediately renamed King Huainan, and all the three counties of Jiujiang, Lushan and Yuzhang will be the fiefs of the king, giving the king the greatest trust and power, and its status is above all the princes. What else can the king consider?"
Ying Bu was very dissatisfied with Xiang Yu, but he still didn't dare to answer Sui He at this moment. The reason was very simple. He was afraid of Xiang Yu's force.
Just as Ying Bu was hesitating, his concubine suddenly came in and reported that the decree of the Western Chu King had arrived and asked the King of Jiujiang to go out to receive the decree.
Ying Bu became nervous and hurried out to greet him. Suhe was overjoyed and clenched his fists repeatedly, and my plan was accomplished!
Sui He followed Ying Bu from the backyard into the front hall. The person who came to send the order was Shang Jing, the adviser of Xiang Yu. Shang Jing was sitting carelessly in the hall drinking tea, but he didn't stand up when he saw Ying Bu coming.
Ying Bu was a little embarrassed and coughed; "It turned out to be Mr. Shang. I heard that Mr. Wu brought the order of the Overlord!" Gong Jie put down the teacup, nodded slightly, and said in a deep voice. "It seems that King Jiujiang has a tough body recently. The Overlord wants King Jiujiang to send troops to attack Wuguan of Qin, so there should be no problem!"
Ying Bu hesitated for a moment, and Shang Jing took out a bamboo slip from his sleeve: "This is the order of the Overlord. Someone reported the rebellion of the Jiujiang King, but the Overlord did not believe it. Please ask the Jiujiang King to lead the troops north immediately, and carry 200,000 hu of food and grass to support the Western Chu army. Thank you, the Overlord."
Blackmail is definitely blackmail. Two hundred thousand hu! Ying Bu is so angry!
Shang Jing didn't look up at all, so he didn't see Sui He. However, Sui He hid behind Ying Bu and stared at Shang Jing, thinking that this old boy was so arrogant that he was clearly forcing Ying Bu to rebel.
Sui He suddenly rushed out from behind Ying Bu and shouted at the top of his lungs, "It's outrageous. Xiang Yu is what? King Jiujiang has already surrendered to the King of Qin. Why do you still use it at will? Letting King Jiujiang attack Qin is simply delusional. Isn't this forcing King Jiujiang to be a shameless villain?" As he said that, he chopped the bamboo slips in Shang Jing's hand, tore it to pieces, and threw it out of the door.
Shang Jing and Ying Bu were both stunned! No one expected Cheng Yaojin to come out on the way!
"Suihe--" the two of them exclaimed in unison.
Sui He looked at Shang Jing and said, "How could Xiang Yu do this? Didn't I say it very clearly in Chu Camp? King Jiujiang is already from Qin, so why did he send you here?"
When Shang Jing saw Sui He was here, it seemed that Ying Bu was treating him as a VIP guest. He suddenly understood everything in his heart and looked at Ying Bu in horror. "Why is the King of Jiujiang like this?"
Ying Bu said, damn, I don’t know why he is like this?
Sui He turned his head and said harshly to Yingbu, "Don't be afraid of King Jiujiang. Xiang Yu dared not do anything with the King of Qin. King Chu is cruel and cannot be a mate. A real man makes a quick decision when doing things. It is better to kill his envoy and break openly. If you are embarrassed to do something, I can do it for you!" As he said that, he copied a quick knife from the weapon rack and rushed towards Shang Jing.
Shang Jing was a civil servant. He had seen such a white knife entering the red knife. He was so scared that he retreated repeatedly, his limbs trembled, and he ran to the yard in a panic: "The King of Jiujiang has rebelled, the King of Jiujiang has rebelled-" Sui He held a big knife and chased him hard behind! Ying Bu suddenly woke up, and he was fooled by Sui He.
"Don't kill him with the general!"
Sui He thought that if he killed him, no one would go back to report the letter to Xiang Yu, he roared angrily, "The great kindness of the King of Jiujiang spared your life and asked you to go back and tell Xiang Yu that from today on, the King of Jiujiang and him will not owe each other one another. When they meet again, they will be enemies of the two countries. Either you die or he dies."
Shang Jing heard it clearly, glad that he saved his life, fled back to the inn, packed his things and returned to the camp of Xichu.
Sui He ran back panting with a big knife and asked Ying Bu for credit: "King, I've solved it for you. Now you can surrender to Da Qin with peace of mind." Ying Bu really wanted to strangle the bastard in front of him to death, but at this time he would never dare to do it. Xiang Yu was offended thoroughly. Do he still dare to offend the King of Qin?
"You have caused me a lot of trouble, and Xiang Yu will not let it go."
Sui He smiled and said, "The King of Jiujiang was wrong again. I am not harming you, but I am saving you. However, the King of Jiujiang should really make some preparations now. I guess Xiang Yu will send troops to attack, and I will stay here to fight side by side with the king." Ying Bu took a breath of air conditioning; "Didn't you say that there is the King of Qin who doesn't have to be afraid?"
