Chapter 184
"But you? You damn well want to strip every peach from the tree—will that work?"
"This won't work! We must implement enfeoffment!"
"Yes! We must implement enfeoffment!"
"I propose we launch an attack on Outside Xianyanggong immediately! Eradicate the rebellious son in one stroke and force Seeing Ying Zheng to implement the enfeoffment system!"
That person spoke these words.
And the moment those words left his mouth, everyone was instantly shocked!
Now?
Enfeoffment?
They were astonished!
Yet they couldn't help but feel their eyes light up with excitement!
Enfeoffment!
This is the enfeoffment they longed for most!
Being enfeoffed as marquises or appointed as prime ministers—who in this world does not desire it?
Moreover, can nobles with territory be the same as nobles without territory?
Nobles with territory are called Marquises or Kings!
They can establish their own states and maintain larger private armies!
They become absolute masters over an entire land!
Nobles without territory possess only land and private armies!
Everything must still obey the Emperor's orders!
Such days are far too uncomfortable!
Therefore, enfeoffment must be implemented!
Hereditary succession without reduction!
In that instant, many people's eyes lit up!
Likewise, the crowd began discussing when to send out the troops!
"Tonight, right tonight!"
"Outside Xianyanggong is currently very empty; without Li Yuanba guarding it, there are only five thousand garrison troops!"
"We can absolutely conquer it!"
093. Summoning all experts under heaven to kill Li Yuanba! A death-defying trap!
Inside Wanhualou in Xianyang City!
At this very moment, a large group of nobles shouted excitedly.
They wanted to immediately attack Outside Xianyanggong, kill Facing Ying Su, and threaten Seeing Ying Zheng into implementing enfeoffment!
Meanwhile, other nobles hurriedly intervened: "Impossible! Impossible!"
"Impossible? Why is it impossible?"
Those nobles, sweating profusely, said:
"Even without Li Yuanba, there is still Li Cunxiao!"
"He is a fierce warrior no less than Li Yuanba!"
"Wang Jian's failure with his fifteen thousand troops to attack Outside Xianyanggong was caused by him!"
"This man Li Cunxiao is extremely fierce!"
"He alone blocked fifteen thousand troops!"
"His strength is enough for one person to open and close Guancheng Sect!"
He shouted, at this moment, trying to restrain the other nobles' impulsiveness!
However, some nobles indeed let out a cold sneer:
"Strength enough for one person to open and close Guancheng Sect?"
"And block fifteen thousand troops?"
"Keep bragging!"
"Do you really think another fierce warrior like Li Yuanba could possibly appear?"
"To speak plainly, there is absolutely none!"
"It doesn't exist!"
"I heard there is no such thing at all!"
"The situation back then was entirely because Li Yuanba had returned!"
"Similarly, only Li Yuanba could have accomplished such a feat!"
"What Li Cunxiao? It is nothing but fabricated nonsense!"
A crowd of nobles jeered.
Another group of nobles began shouting:
"Then shall we attack Outside Xianyanggong tonight?"
"Right tonight, catching the rebellious son off guard!"
At this moment, everyone was very excited!
But a calm noble shouted:
"No, absolutely not; even if we must attack, we must wait a few more days!"
"Li Yuanba has just left; what if he hears the news and returns?"
"You must know, he possesses the Ten-Thousand-Mile Mist and Cloud Illumination, traveling ten thousand li by day and eight thousand by night! If he were to return, it would be an instant matter!"
Another noble refuted, "He has already left; how could he possibly return?"
"Moreover, we are launching a surprise attack, moving very quickly, and we are surrounding Outside Xianyanggong; the news cannot get out. How could Li Yuanba know?"
That noble shouted, "But what if?"
"The rebellious son Facing Ying Su is cunning; you surely don't truly think he has no brain!"
"What if this is a trap, what then should we do?"
"What if, by the time we all arrive at Xianyang City, Li Yuanba bursts out?"
"That is a very possible thing!"
"He, knowing full well that all of us are dissatisfied with him, still dispatched Li Yuanba to fight the Xiongnu? He is mad!"
"No!"
"Absolutely not!"
"If you wish to attack tonight, you attack; our Zhang family will not send anyone to attack!"
The moment his words left his mouth, instantly, everyone could not help but panic!
Everyone was terrified and trembling!
Yes, what if it is a trap, what should be done?
However, just at this moment, a descendant of Shang Yang laughed:
"Li Yuanba has left. When the great army set out, I sent people to investigate; Li Yuanba indeed followed within the army and did not depart!"
"Now, he may already be nearing Huashan!"
"This..."
The moment his words left his mouth, the eyes of the others all lit up brightly: "Are you certain?"
The descendant of Shang Yang said, "Of course I am certain; Li Yuanba is not here, this is a fact!"
"Attacking tonight is the best opportunity; in a few more days, the rebellious son will realize, and this may instead increase the defenses of Outside Xianyanggong!"
"In that case, it will be difficult to attack!"
"Then let's do it!"
"Then let's do it!"
"Our Liu family today will throw caution to the wind!"
"If we do not succeed, we shall perish!"
"We, Fan Jia, today will also throw caution to the wind!"
"Two thousand private soldiers; this is all the army our Fan family can muster!"
