Xiong Wu was the strongest to become the leader of the anti-Qin alliance, but there were other forces in the alliance that were no weaker than him.
Zhang Liang pointed at the two men Xiong Wu was attacking and said, "Do you see those two men, the old man and the young man, holding guns?"
That was Xiang Liang and your brother Yang, whom you had previously inquired about. They were both from noble families of Chu, and their influence in Chu was no less than that of Lord Xiong Wu.
However, when Xiang Liang first rose to power, he borrowed the reputation of the Chu royal family, but this reputation was eventually taken away by Lord Xiong Wu, and the two sides seemed to have some conflict.
Xiang Liang's nephew, Xiang Yu, was a military strategist, but he was praised by his fellow military strategists as being comparable to the Lord of War. Xiang Yu was so brave that no one could defeat him!
Besides you, Brother Yang, the only other person I know who could single-handedly annihilate the Black Dragon Cavalry is Xiang Yu.
The Xiang family's current power and influence are at least 80% attributable to Xiang Yu's efforts.
As Zhang Liang spoke, Yang Cheng glanced at Xiang Yu.
In this world, Xiang Yu is young and valiant, tall and imposing, like a god descending from heaven. His entire body radiates a fierce aura, and he is like the sun, making people dare not look directly at him.
He sat cross-legged with his eyes closed, holding a thick, dark-colored Overlord Spear in his hand, which exuded a strong murderous aura.
Sensing Yang Cheng's gaze, Xiang Yu also glanced in Yang Cheng's direction.
Their eyes met, and it seemed as if an invisible explosion was heard.
Xiang Yu let out a soft exclamation, then carefully examined Yang Cheng for a couple more moments before looking away.
Zhang Liang didn't notice this and continued, "That chubby fellow dressed in luxurious clothes is Tian Dan. He comes from the royal family of Qi and had a strong family background in Qi. In his early years, he recruited many retainers and stationed troops for war. He also has the support of some Confucian scholars."
The guy behind Tian Dan is called Han Cheng. He is a descendant of the Korean royal family, but he is a coward who only knows how to curry favor with the powerful and has disgraced the Korean royal family!
He befriended Tian Dan and received considerable financial support from him. At the same time, Confucian scholars in Han also supported his restoration of the kingdom.
Yang Cheng looked at Zhang Liang with slight surprise.
Zhang Liang's family had served as prime ministers of the State of Han for five generations, so normally they should have been extremely loyal to Han.
Now, a descendant of the Korean royal family is here, yet Zhang Liang treats him with utter disdain. What did this person do to earn Zhang Liang's contempt?
Seeing Yang Cheng's gaze, Zhang Liang snorted and said, "My Korean royal family only has so few people. Logically speaking, I should be the one to assist him."
My Zhang family has served as prime ministers of Han for five generations. I am not the kind of person with ambitions. My life's ambition is to overthrow the tyrannical Qin Dynasty, not for personal gain.
Han Cheng had some reputation before, but I never expected him to be so cowardly. When faced with the Qin army's pursuit, he actually betrayed his loyal subordinates and fled on his own in order to escape!
Having seen through this person, I was disheartened and left.
However, this person also attached himself to Tian Dan, who had great power in Qi and wanted someone in Han to support him in the alliance, so he helped him develop Han.
Although this person is the leader of the resistance against Qin in Han, he is cowardly and lacks any sense of responsibility; he is unfit for great tasks!
Zhang Liang let out a long breath and then looked at a tall, strong-looking young man opposite Han Cheng and said, "This man is Yan Zhao, the leader of the anti-Qin resistance in Yan. He is a member of the royal family of Yan and is known for his generosity, magnanimity, and hatred of evil."
It is said that he was the nephew of Prince Dan of Yan. He often followed Prince Dan when he was young. He studied under the sword god Gai Nie and also learned swordsmanship from Jing Ke.
He also has the support of strategists behind him.
The lands of Yan and Zhao are full of men of great compassion and sorrow. Yan Zhao is one of the few leaders in the alliance who is single-mindedly focused on overthrowing the Qin Dynasty and disregards his own interests.
In the past, Jing Ke attempted to assassinate the King of Qin, but little did people know that his friend Gai Nie had also personally entered Xianyang and single-handedly stormed into the Qin King's palace. Thousands of soldiers who were guarding him died under his sword, but in the end, he went mad and retreated for some unknown reason.
Over the years, Yan Zhao has also been the one who sent the most people to participate in the assassination attempts against the Qin emperor.
Although the land of Yan was not granted to Qi, if any wanted criminals rebelling against the tyrannical Qin came to Yan, Emperor Zhao of Yan would unconditionally provide them with financial assistance.
After introducing these people, Zhang Liang introduced some people from various schools of thought and sects.
Some of the various schools of thought and cultivation forces chose to be supported by nobles from the six states, while others chose to act independently.
Some, like the Confucian school, were so large that they even invested in several anti-Qin forces in batches.
In fact, the goals of the various schools of thought and the forces of cultivation were much simpler when it came to resisting the Qin Dynasty.
All they wanted was peace and tranquility, free from official oppression, so they could peacefully pursue their abilities and ambitions and expand their schools of thought.
The main force resisting Qin was actually the nobles of the former six states.
Without some bloodline or status, you're not even qualified to rebel.
That's why the Chen Sheng and Wu Guang uprising at Dazexiang was so awe-inspiring.
How can a sparrow know the ambition of a swan? Are kings and nobles born with a special destiny?
A roar from Dazexiang planted the seeds of indomitable spirit into the backbone of China.
From then on, revenge and rebellion were no longer the exclusive rights of nobles.
When those in power leave no way for the people to survive, they no longer choose to endure in silence, but instead rise up in rebellion, resist oppression, and hang those who are high above them.
Zhang Liang glanced outside the hall and said, "There is actually one important figure who is missing from this alliance meeting, namely Wei Bao, the anti-Qin leader of Wei."
Wei Bao was a member of the Wei royal family, not the imperial clan; he was of legitimate royal lineage. His elder brother was Ningling Jun Wei Jiu.
