C63 Hongmen Dining

At this time, thousands of miles away from the cloud at Hong Gate, in a private room.

At this moment, Liu Bang of Henggao was sitting on the ground, drinking wine alone.

In front of him was the singing lady who was letting out her songs, as well as the dancing lady.

Behind him were numerous burly and awe-inspiring soldiers that were guarding him from the left and right.

Not too far away, the fifty thousand soldiers of the northern troop were stationed. The troops were neat and orderly. The spear formation was like a forest, and all the flags were fluttering in the wind. How awe-inspiring.

"I didn't expect you to come to your enemy's territory, Hongmen." An elegant male voice suddenly appeared not too far away from Liu Bang.

He turned his head and saw a man wearing a dragon robe standing there.

The only one who could wear a yellow robe like Liu Bang was naturally the emperor.

Liu Peng naturally knew this person as well.

Emperor Song, Zhao Kuangyin.

Drinking all the contents of the cup in one gulp, Liu Bang said, "This was the place where I used to leave my shadow. However, Overlord Xiang Yu still died in the end. "

"After all, he is only a king. And Wang is an existence lower than the Emperor. The Emperor commanded the people. Emperors were able to support both heaven and earth. Overlord, how can you compare to the Han Emperor? " Zhao Kuangyin smiled.

"I always felt that when you were praising me, you were also praising yourself." Liu Bang muttered.

After all, Zhao Kuangyin was an emperor, and Liu Bang was also an emperor. Zhao Kuangyin was also indirectly praising himself when he praised the identity of Emperor Liu Bang.

To be honest, Liubang thought he was thick-skinned enough. After all, in the imperial court, he always liked to use the word "neon" in front of subjects he did not like. (Your father) This is historical evidence, Liu Bang has indeed done such a senseless thing in history.)

Looking at Liu Bang, Zhao Kuangyin spread his hands and asked, "This time, you have drawn the elites from the north. Aren't you afraid that the defense of the North is now empty, and that the Hu Cavalry will take advantage of it? "

"I assume that since you told Fatty Ying to go to the north, Hu Jun should be unable to threaten Yun Zhong. Of course, if there really is a risk of losing our territory, I will consider going back to take a look.

Fatty Ying was what Liu Bang called the original emperor Ying Zheng. Even though he had seen Ying Zheng on patrol before he became an emperor and had said the words "a real man should be like this", he still held disdain for Ying Zheng in every way ever since he had become an emperor.

Ying was a scholar, while Liu Bang was a scholar. While Ying was working on the law, Liu Bang was working on three parts of the law. Ying set up the order with the legal scholars, Liu Bang let the Taoists make the Han Dynasty into a country of inaction and freedom.

It can be said that apart from the fact that both sides are militarily powerful, there is little similarity between the two countries in terms of internal affairs.

However, Zhao Kuangyin didn't care about Liu's evaluation of Ying Zheng. What he cared about the most was what Liu Bang had just said.

"If there really is a risk of losing our territory, I will consider going back to take a look."

Hearing this, Zhao Kuangyin left the Hong Gate with a dark expression.

At this moment, an old servant walked up to him.

"Shangguan Family, what should we do next?"

"Tell Cai Ji to help Uncle Li to protect the cloud no matter what. If necessary, he could kill the Taishang and Heshan in the clouds without any evidence, and then blame it on the whole city. I don't want Liu Bang to delay my plans because of what happened in the clouds. " Zhao Kuangyin said.

"In addition." He thought about it for a moment and decided that he still needed to pay some money to stabilize Liubang. He said, "Take out another three hundred thousand taels of gold and make sure Liu Bang is stabilized."

300,000 gold was already quite attractive to Liu Bang.

However, to the richest Emperor on this land, Zhao Kuangyin didn't care about the three hundred thousand taels of gold.

Compared to other complex layouts, letting your spy organization go all out was the most effective solution.

"Yes, Shangguan Family." The old servant bowed to Zhao Kuangyin.

At the same time, Liu Bang, who was drinking in the Hong Gate, suddenly let out a cold sneer as he watched Zhao Kuangyin's fading back.

He took out a snow-white letter from his chest pocket and looked at the words on it. It was the Cloud Battle Report that Uncle Li had presented.

"Do you really think Nion cannot let go of the clouds and the north? Even if those places were lost, the gnome would still be able to snatch them from the hands of the Manchus. What Neyon wanted was just more benefits. "Ignorant child, you actually dare to scheme with Neyon?"

Slowly, the mocking smile faded from his face. He put the letter back in his pocket and began to read again.

"All the military operations in the city have been taken over by our men."

When Xiao Wen returned to his house, a man dressed in green suddenly spoke to him. He looked average, as if he would disappear if he was thrown into the crowd.

Xiao Wen was stunned for a moment before reacting.

Like Cai Zhen, this was a spy from Song Kingdom.

Thus, Xiao Wen pretended as if nothing had happened and opened the door, walking in alone.

"The door isn't locked." The spy judged as he watched Xiao Wen close the door.

Thus, he walked in.

"How is it?" Xiao Wen asked as he looked at the ordinary looking man in front of him.

"According to the news from Shengjing, the seven thousand five hundred cavalrymen under the yellow flag and the fifty thousand supply ships will be sent to the clouds as a combined army of a hundred thousand. Probably by next month, they will be able to block it. " The man cupped his hands and replied.

"Is the news reliable?" Xiao Wen asked again.

The man's expression was calm. He spoke to Xiao Wen as if he was narrating the truth: "The eight flags are completely clear, and each flag has our people. "According to the information sent by the spies in each flag, at this stage, the rest of the flags do not have the ability to explore the clouds."

Hearing this, Xiao Wen couldn't help but sigh.

He had originally thought that it was already quite impressive for the Manchu constables to put their men in the defensive position of the burly man's border city.

However, he hadn't thought that Song Guo would be able to turn Qing Shui into a sieve.

It seemed like the spies of this world were really powerful.

However, out of caution, Xiao Wen still asked, "So what if Nur Ha Chi wanted to keep it a secret and forced the other flags to have the ability to go on an expedition at a certain time?"

Hearing that, the person shook his head and said, "Even Zhenghuang Qi is powerless. It's just that Nurhachin has been trying to give them the ability lately. The internal affairs and mobilization of the Manchu people are not as strong as you think. The strength of their army was at the expense of the government's ability to mobilize the country, as well as their economy.

"Very good!" Xiao Wen couldn't help but nod his head in agreement.

In theory, the eight banners system should belong to the category of slavery system.

It was true that during the feudal era, other than a strong combat ability, there was nothing special about using this item.

Especially for a country like the Song Empire that was skilled in everything except military matters.

Watching the spy leave silently, Xiao Wen locked the door again.

However, just as he was about to go back to the house and get some drinks from the icehouse for the summer break, he heard a knock on the door.

"Is Mister Xiao in?" An unfamiliar man's voice sounded from outside the house. Vaguely, Xiao Wen seemed to remember that this was a official in the Cloud County.

He opened the door and asked, "What's the matter?"

"It's like this." That official politely said: "In a month's time, Lord He Xing intends to set up a banquet to invite the Squire from the Clouds, so he asked me to pass on a message. I hope that Mister Xiao will attend as soon as possible. "

"Of course." Xiao Wen laughed.

One month later, the day would arrive when the Qingqing Steel Cavalry would arrive in the clouds.

Inviting Xiao Wen at this time was clearly not a good thing.

"The people who come are not kind, and the good people do not come. It seems like the banquet held by Heshen this time will be a Hongmen Banquet! " Xiao Wen said leisurely as he looked at the official who left.
