Han Xin did not make a big announcement about the assassin, and the jailer who knew the inside story was also ordered by Han Xin to keep silent.
Two days later, the news that the King of Qi was assassinated again and was seriously injured and dying spread throughout the military camp.
At the same time, Han Xin ordered the soldiers to go to Linzi.
All the generals under his command went to Linzi.
Ding Fu, Ding Li, Fu Kuan, Chai Wu, Li Zuoche and others were all present.
The atmosphere in the lobby of Prince Qi's mansion was solemn.
Han Xin was seriously ill, and this matter was of great importance.
Not long after, Kuai Che walked out of the mansion dragging his seriously injured body with a sad look on his face.
When everyone saw this, their expressions varied.
"Everyone, the King of Qi has died from his injuries. The military talisman is in my hands."
Kuai Che took out the military token from his arms.
Seeing this, everyone's expression changed drastically.
The military token is the lifeblood of a general. Even if he dies, he will never hand it over to others.
The fact that Kuai Che got Han Xin's military order shows that Han Xin might be just as Kuai Che said.
"The King of Qi has left a will that all the troops of Qi should surrender to Overlord Xiang Yu," said Kuai Che.
As soon as these words were spoken, the faces of the generals in the field changed drastically.
"Impossible." Chai Wu spoke first, glaring at Kuai Che: "How could the King of Qi allow his troops to surrender to the State of Chu? You are forging military orders."
"These are the last words of the King of Qi. Do you want to disobey the military order?" Kuai Che was furious, and his wounds moved and he coughed continuously.
"It can't be the order of King Qi." Fu Kuan also said.
"Why not? Do you think I would falsely convey the order of the King of Qi?" Kuai Che looked at the two of them in disbelief, shaking with anger.
"It's impossible. The assassin was sent by Xiang Yu, a soldier raised by the Overlord. How could the King of Qi allow someone to defect to Xiang Yu? It could be you, sent by the Overlord, to coordinate with the enemy."
Chai Wu stood out with a grim look on his face. He drew the long sword in his hand and looked at Kuai Che with murderous intent.
At the same time, Fu Kuan stepped forward and stared at the military token in Kuai Che's hand with greedy eyes.
"Chai Wu, you are so good! The military token is here, do you want to disobey the order?"
Kuai Che pointed the military token at the two men to intimidate them.
"If you falsely pass on the military order, the military token cannot be in your hands." Among the few people, Ding Fu stepped forward and looked at the military token in Kuai Che's hand with the same burning eyes.
"Are there any of you who want to disobey military orders?" Kuai Che was furious.
Ding Li and Li Zuoche remained silent, feeling that something was wrong.
"This is not a military order. The King of Qi was assassinated by assassins sent by the Overlord. How could he issue another order? Surrender to Xiang Yu. Give me the military token."
Chai Wu stepped forward, grabbed the military token in Kuai Che's hand, took it into his hand, and laughed loudly towards the sky.
Li Zuoche and Ding Li's expressions changed drastically. Just as they were about to stop them, they were stopped by Fu Kuan and Ding Fu.
"You are so good, Chai Wu! How dare you seize the military order? Do you want to rebel?" Kuai Che's expression changed drastically.
"What rebellion? We are Han generals. The King of Qi has ordered the entire army to return to Han. You tampered with the military order and you should be killed."
"Okay, okay, not bad."
Kuai Che's angry face suddenly turned into a smile.
"From the beginning to the end, there was no news that the King of Qi was killed by an assassin sent by the Overlord. How did you know?"
Seeing Kuai Che's appearance, Chai Wu and others' faces changed, realizing that something was wrong.
Ding Li and Li Zuoche took a step back, distanced themselves from the three people, and looked at them warily.
Footsteps were heard from outside.
Han Xin and Lin Han came out together, looking unhappy.
Among the five generals, three surrendered to the King of Han, which was a large proportion, especially Chai Wu.
"Tell me, from the beginning to the end, there has never been any news that Xiang Yu sent anyone to assassinate me. How did you know?" Han Xin asked coldly.
"I guessed it." Chai Wu's expression changed in shock. He said, "Xiang Yu was defeated by the King of Qi at Gaixia. He hated the King of Qi so much that he sent assassins to kill him. It makes sense."
"That's reasonable, I know it's reasonable, but you're trying to seize the military token and then surrender to the King of Han. That's not reasonable."
Han Xin said this coldly, and with a wave of his hand, many soldiers filed into the Prince of Qi's mansion and surrounded the hall.
After a moment, the assassin with disheveled hair was brought into the hall and shown to several soldiers.
"This is the assassin who is trying to kill me. He claims to have been sent by Madam Lü Zhi. If he succeeds, his officers will try to seize my military power. If he fails, he will pin the blame on Overlord Xiang Yu. What are your thoughts?"
Chai Wu, Ding Fu and Fu Kuan's expressions changed drastically.
"You are all Han generals, which is good. I conquered cities and territories for Liu Bang, but he still wants to plot against me."
Han Xin's voice was filled with disappointment. He waved his hand and the soldiers who had surrounded the few people rushed forward and killed Chai Wu and the other two.
The military command fell into Han Xin's hands again, but at this moment he felt extremely complicated.
"Order the heads of Chai Wu, Ding Fu, and Fu Kuan to be sent back to Liu Bang in the Han camp. Tell him that I, Han Xin, have severed all ties with them, and that the next time we meet, we will be enemies."
Kuai Che immediately ordered someone to take the three heads and put them in a box, then left on horseback.
…
Seeing the head in the box, Liu Bang was so angry that he trembled all over. Chen Ping, Xiao He, and Cao Shen were all puzzled, but they could tell something from Liu Bang's expression.
"Your Majesty, why is this happening?" Xiao He asked hesitantly.
"Han Xin killed him and told me that all ties of friendship are severed."
When these words fell, several people immediately became confused. Coming from Han Xin's mouth, these words were a big deal.
Xiang Yu is not dead yet, and now Han Xin not only does not help them, but also becomes enemies with them. This is an unprecedented event.
"Why is this so?" Chen Ping asked, suppressing his shock.
Seeing that several counselors wanted to know the answer, Liu Bang knew that he could not hide it, so he sighed and said.
"I just learned that Lady Lü Zhi, knowing of Han Xin's betrayal, secretly ordered his assassination and contacted several others, hoping to seize his military power. However, she failed. Ding Fu, Chai Wu, and Fu Kuan were killed. Han Xin ordered their heads to be sent back and reported this to me, terminating all ties."
