Chapter 240: Chapter 150: [Hongmen Banquet Showdown] Liu Bang: That’s Freaking Xiang Yu! (7k Double-Length)
"In this period, just the ones who died from exhaustion or were beaten to death must already number in the hundreds, right?"
Chen Feng nodded with a grave expression:
"Too few."
"It’s more than that."
Qi Hui sighed and said:
"Indeed."
Then Qi Hui became spirited again:
"I suddenly thought of a new method."
"Since we can analyze and restore some bamboo slip records from this aspect, can we not also analyze those we don’t yet understand through different identities?"
"Just like with the bamboo slip record of ’countless dead,’ we had no intuitive concept."
"But after experiencing the civilian corvée firsthand, watching so many people die from exhaustion or being beaten to death."
"We almost don’t need to think to understand what the records meant."
"Although history is different, many aspects are the same."
The more he thought about it, the more feasible it seemed, Qi Hui became excited:
"Quick!"
"Contact your senior brothers and sisters, have them come for corvée labor."
Chen Feng and the Blue Star netizens in the live stream gasped.
This is a bit ruthless!
However, Chen Feng acted quickly, issuing the teacher’s command to the senior brothers and sisters!
All of you come for corvée labor!
Whoever thinks suffering is good, only the one doing it knows!
...
The live stream of Chen Feng and Qi Hui could only be considered mildly popular.
The truly popular ones were the live streams where, after choosing roles, some randomly selected powerful characters.
For example, someone chose [Emperor].
As soon as they entered, they were in the magnificent palace, barely excited before hearing a rough voice outside shouting:
"I am ordered by the Chancellor (Zhao Gao) to execute Your Majesty on behalf of the world; though you speak much, I dare not report!"
Before they had time to react, they were forced to commit suicide.
It’s unknown whether it’s a matter of time nodes or some other reason, but currently choosing Emperor only leads to this plot, and many players analyze that this should be the reason for being the last emperor?
Comparing the Chu-Han contention, whose realm was it for?
Surely that of the previous dynasty.
So players abandoned the [Emperor] option and instead chose a variety of other identities to enter the [Immersive Plot] mode.
At this time.
In Celestial Shark Live, in the [Huaxia] game zone, within the live stream room,
a streamer called Fei Lang who chose an entourage identity was now ranking highly in the [Huaxia] game zone’s live stream leaderboard.
Because being an entourage meant you could end up with anything.
But he randomly ended up among the Han Dynasty’s initial stakeholders.
He chose to assume an NPC character identity.
The current identity is called Lu Wan.
At this moment, he was in a corner of the banquet hall, eating and drinking while introducing the original stakeholders of the Han Dynasty in the room to the Blue Star fans in the live stream:
"Brothers, after constantly skipping the plot,"
"I’ve finally joined these initial stakeholders."
"Now, open the Polestar Official Website and find the [Chinese History Series] database, let’s cross-check~"
The [Immersive Plot] mode is different from the [Multiplayer Online] mode, much like World War II, where you can’t skip plot scenes in an online battlefield, but you can skip them freely in [Immersive Plot].
At this moment, Fei Lang was scanning the people in the room, looking at a brawny man:
"Look, that one."
"That is Fan Kuai."
[Founding General: Fan Kuai]
[Origin: Hero of Pei County, early years as a dog butcher, close ties with Liu Bang, joined him in uprising against Qin, crowned top fierce general of early Han.]
[Early exploits: At the Hongmen Banquet, stormed the tent with a shield, rebuked Xiang Yu, protected Liu Bang to safety, famous for bravery and loyalty.]
[Peak accomplishments: During the Chu-Han contention, often led as vanguard to defeat enemies, broke through at the Battle of Xingyang, led infantry and cavalry to charge at the Siege of Gaixia, annihilating elite Chu troops.]
[Legacy: His ’storming the tent to protect his lord’ act became a model of loyalty and bravery, legendary rise from a dog butcher to marquis, admired by future lower-class military officers.]
[Note: The rage at Hongmen, echoing through millennia! Players unlocking this template can join the ’Common Soldier General Record’ series.]
"Look at this introduction, you can tell he’s a fierce general."
"Vanguard breaking enemies, infantry and cavalry charging the formation."
"Sounds very sensational."
"And over there, that one is Zhang Liang."
[Hidden Strategist: Zhang Liang]
[Origin: Descendant of Korean nobility, five generations served as prime minister before Qin destroyed Korea, vowed revenge.]
[Early life: Taught by Huang Shigong in ’Grand Duke’s Art of War,’ highly skilled in strategy. In early support for Liu Bang, united Ying Bu and Peng Yue with the ’Xia Yi Plan,’ turning the Chu-Han tide and laying the foundation for counteroffensive.]
[Peak feats: Proposed plans before the Hongmen Banquet to ally with Xiang Bo, aiding Liu Bang’s escape; during the Chu-Han contention, conceived the ’Openly Repair Roads, Secretly Cross Chencang’ strategy, helping Han regain the Three Qins; before the Battle of Gaixia, advocated encircling Xiang Yu, culminating in the Ten-Sided Ambush.]
[Legacy: His strategies, ’planning within a tent, deciding victories miles away,’ revered as military canons, honored with Xiao He and Han Xin as ’Three Heroes of Early Han.’ Venerated as ’Saint of Strategies’ in later generations, works like ’Plain Book’ attributed to him, with far-reaching influence.]
[Note: ’The plan can stabilize the country, wisdom can secure a nation!’ Players unlocking this template can join the ’Eternal Strategy Records’ series.]
"He’s also a major figure."
"They’re all in the Polestar Official Website database."
"As for the others like Liu Bang, Xiao He, and mentioned Xiang Yu, Xiang Bo, etc., the Polestar Official Website hasn’t updated yet."
"But just looking at these achievements, they’re impressive."
The Blue Star netizens were very interested in the introductions, with titles like the top fierce general of early Han, ’planning within a tent, deciding victories miles away,’ these descriptions are very striking.
How did these ancients come up with such terms?
Hiss—
At this moment.
With the intrusion of a small soldier, the grandeur within the hall fell into complete silence.
