The Grandmaster Strategist Chapter 6: The Eve of the Great War

In the fifth year of Tongtai, in the first month of the first month of the same year, Da Yong’s envoy Gou Lian paid a visit, and he bribed his officials with a lot of money. When the king was young, the prime minister Shang Weijun controlled the government. Restricted him not to go to war and caused a missed opportunity. This is a sin that cannot be forgiven.

——"The History of Chu Min in the Southern Dynasties".

Looking at the information in my hand, I almost groaned and read it. King Qi took the information and said to me: "Suiyun, I didn't expect your strategy to be really sinister, so that Long Tingfei was under the command The general was killed and wounded.” I can only defend palely. This is not my arrangement. In fact, the plan of Su Qing, the chief sentry of the Northern Han Dynasty, was more vicious and more dangerous than I arranged, and the result was more perfect, not only achieved The purpose of framing Quartz and discrediting Duan Wudi also attacked Long Tingfei's prestige by the way. If it weren’t for Su Qing who was embellished by Qiu Yufei on the way back to Zezhou with some secret spy masters, although relying on Su Qing’s outstanding martial arts, hard fighting with secret spy masters, and timely response sent by Zezhou, he finally forced to retreat. After Qiu Yufei, he paid a heavy price. The plan this time was really perfected by Su Qing.

However, I thought with a guilty conscience that this seemed to be not Su Qing’s responsibility. Qiu Yufei was let go. Although I don’t know how this person suddenly became an innate master, it seemed to be my responsibility. Su Qing suffered heavy losses. Speaking of Demon Sect is the assistance of the North Han Dynasty, but Jing Wuji can only act as a deterrent. If a person like him personally kills the enemy or assassinates it, the soldiers and civilians of the North Han Dynasty will feel that the North Han Tower will fall. Well, and Jing Wuji doesn't do anything, our master-level masters will not be dispatched, so before a critical juncture, Jing Wuji will not make a move. In comparison, the other disciples of the Demon Sect pose a greater threat to us, just like Qiu Yufei, who would have thought that he would suddenly advance in martial arts and advance to the congenital extreme number. It is no wonder Su Qing made a mistake. I regretted it a little, but Qiu Yufei couldn't kill after all, and I had to put down the facts and prepare for the aftermath. I decided to call Su Qing into the Chinese Army. After all, the army will soon attack the Northern Han Dynasty. Since Su Qing’s identity has been leaked, it would be more appropriate to stay in the Chinese Army Counselor. This woman is really not easy. She can stay in the Northern Han Dynasty for many years. Leaking the slightest flaw, this time I went into the tiger's den, and the methods I wanted to cover up were so skilled that I really admired it.

After finishing the information, I told Hu Yanshou to pass Su Qing in. After changing into a blue shirt for men's clothing, although she is still graceful and graceful, but like a winter plum, Su Qing walked into my camp with an indifferent expression, bowed down and said: "Subordinate Su Qing, knock on the master of Chu Xianghou Jianjun. , The subordinates violated the orders of the adults and changed their plans without authorization. Many colleagues were killed and the adults were also asked to convict them." After speaking, he coughed a few times, and his face became paler as snow.

I took a look at this woman in admiration. This is a strange woman. She was a short-lived woman in the Da Yong rivers and lakes six years ago. She was dressed in a blue Confucian shirt, but she never concealed her identity. She was ruthless and upright. She never looked true. After seeing people, he became famous in just half a year, and then he took refuge in King Yong, and he invited himself to the North Han as a secret spy, with outstanding credit. Within a few years, he became the chief sentry of the North Han. Regardless of his talent and loyalty, he is second to none in the secret spy. The character has made great contributions this time, but seeing that there is no trace of pride in her expression, nor is she worried because of unauthorized violation of orders, the crimson shirt is really extraordinary.

Su Qing's heart was not as calm as she showed, but in fact, she was also uneasy. Although the master Jiang was gentle and elegant, she, as the chief guard of the Northern Han Secret Spy, naturally knew a lot about the insider of the imperial court. How, she knew very well, if it wasn't for the entanglement between her and Duan Wudi, and Shizi was accidentally infatuated with herself, she would never dare to change her plan without authorization. However, after the plan is successful, she is more worried about her ending. The most wise people often get out of control for the worst things. She is afraid of offending this person for what she does. He doesn't have to snare off charges. Only her elites will be Qiu Yufei. Killing half of the wounded, you can offend yourself.

But I don’t think of her thoughts. For me, it’s best for people under her to be able to adapt to changes. However, since I have the courage to change the plan, I have to bear the consequences. If I fail, I will be punished heavily. If you win, you should be rewarded. Su Qing's gains outweigh the losses, and I naturally want to reward them. With a light sigh, I said: "This is not your responsibility. Although you changed your plan without authorization, it was more effective than I expected, and you sacrificed a lot. How could Benhou blame you? As for Qiu Yufei. The killing was unexpected. The gains outweighed the losses this time. You don’t have to blame yourself too much. Have you taken the medicine that Xiao Shunzi sent?"

An expression of gratitude flashed in Su Qing's eyes and said: "Subordinates thank you for your innocence, the medicine is very effective."

Xiao Shunzi interjected: "General Whistle Su, after you recover from your injury, I will fight you and see how Qiu Yufei is now."

Su Qing said straightforwardly: "The subordinates only took Qiu Yufei's hundred tricks, and they were defeated and injured. The subordinates are incompetent. Please forgive me and Lord Li."

I took a deep breath. After Xiao Shunzi guessed that Qiu Yu was flying into the congenital realm, I felt uneasy, but Su Qing, a woman who was able to take a hundred moves from a congenital master, was no longer a martial art. Simple, but really a hero of the female middle school. It’s just a pity that my sister-in-law is still alone today. I thought in my heart whether it was possible to make a match for her, but I didn’t dare to express such thoughts, lest she think I’m frivolous, just say:" General Su, now the Northern Han Dynasty must make every effort to eliminate our secret spy, and now that the war is about to come, you don’t have to go back. When our army attacks the Northern Han, you can set off with the army again, command our hidden secret spy, and take control Intelligence, our scout camp will also be managed by you, you are willing."

Su Qing looked overjoyed. She hadn't expected this kind of reuse before she came back. She quickly thanked her, "Thank you for your kind love, your subordinates must do their best."

After Su Qing retreated, I sighed with relief and said to Xiao Shunzi: "Things have been arranged now. The battle is about to come. Please ask King Qi, General Xuan, and Jing Chi to come over. We have to discuss how to attack. The Northern Han Dynasty, and when will Chiji come over? Do Dongchuan and Nanchu have intelligence to come over?"

Xiao Shunzi said: "Chi Ji issued an order from the son to go to Nanchu to rectify the intelligence network, and found that the reason why he did not get the information about the Fengyimen change this time is really because of the concealment of Wei Yin's methods. Tianji Pavilion Because of the inconvenience to intervene too much, Chi Ji has arranged to monitor the Fengyi Gate. I think there will be no mistakes this time. In addition, Chief Han did not have any disagreements due to Dongchuan's affairs, so Chi Ji has already set off and rushed over. Zezhou is now, and it is expected to arrive in two or three days. Dong Que has already arrived in Dongchuan, Chen Zhen is grateful for the favor of the son, he does not believe in the promise of King Qing, and he is not like Han Wuqi, has little old affection for Shu, so The situation in Dongchuan has stabilized. Now that an agreement has been reached with King Qing, I believe that he can enter the core of King Qing’s power soon. However, if King Qing launches too quickly, I am afraid that they will not have time to control King Qing’s vitals."

I said lightly: "You can rest assured that Xiahou Yuanfeng is not a vegetarian. He has already begun to attack King Qing and ask Dong Que to contact him. The strength that King Qing relies on has suffered heavy losses, so that he can rely more on Splendid Alliance. If King Qing wants to see Huo Jicheng, he would say that it is inconvenient for Huo Jicheng to come forward. When King Qing raises the flag, Huo Jicheng will appear. Anyway, King Qing should know that the forces of the original Shu Kingdom will not fully believe him."

Xiao Shunzi chuckled, and said: "More than Xiahou Yuanfeng is not a vegetarian, and the emperor is not a vegetarian. The letter he asked Master Shi to write is almost impossible to tell you to offer advice quickly." /

I smiled bitterly and said: "I don't know if I owe their brother anything in my previous life. I am arrogant and smart, but these two can easily see through me."

At this time, a hearty smile came from outside the account: "What are you talking about, if the emperor can see through you, he won’t always be swollen. There are several rulers in the world like the emperor, who are always at your disposal. You don’t want to talk about the emperor. I’m jealous of such favors.” Then King Qi strode in and winked his eyes: “Suiyun, you are very sorry for Su Qing, how about , Do you want me to attack you, Changle is very virtuous, I won't blame you."

I said sternly: "His Royal Highness, don't talk nonsense. If Miss Su heard it, wouldn't she be discouraged? She is not the one who cares for Israel."

Li Xian was forced back by me, and said: "I am also kind. Su Qing is still alone. A woman who is struggling like this, this king can't pass it. She is such a scheming method, if it is not you, who Can you afford it?"

I said coldly: "I'm not an opponent of your Royal Highness, let alone her, so why don't I ask Chang Le to tell the emperor that she should be the concubine?"

Li Xian was taken aback and said: "Don't stop, I'm just joking, this Su Qing is terrifying, I don't dare to offend, besides, she is now a third-rank general, so you can't make fun of her."

I glared at King Qi. I don’t know who started the conversation first, but I said in a strange way: “I’m just about to ask Xiao Shunzi to send someone to invite His Royal Highness and Xuan Song and Jing Chi. Why is your Highness down? It's coming, but what's the matter?"

The king of Qi said with a stern tone: "There is nothing to do, but I want to discuss with you about the march."

I smiled and said: "I have this thought right now. Let's talk about it when the two generals arrive. But these things, Your Highness can handle these things, and Zhe can only listen to them." Qi Wang said: "I'm here. It’s time to send someone to preach them, and it will be here soon." At this time, a guard outside the account said: "General Jing and General Xuan, please."

The King Qi and I looked at each other and smiled. A large-scale attack on the Northern Han Dynasty is imminent. The battle that will determine Dayong’s fate is about to begin. If this battle can be quickly resolved, no one in the world can stop Dayong’s unification of the world. If you are caught in the quagmire of a long battle, then it is a situation where Da Yong is attacked by a group. This battle is very important.

In Southern Chu, Lu Can threw the edict to the ground angrily. He had planned that once Great Yong and Northern Han went to war, he would immediately hand over the defense of Shu Zhong to his subordinates, and led his army across the river to attack Great Yong. This is the only opportunity for Nanchu to seize the world. Missed this time, without the restraint of the North Han iron cavalry, the South Chu can at best be able to settle the Jiangnan, but the emperor Gou Lian easily frightened the court officials with money and intimidation. . Looking at the edict that prevented him from entering the battle, Lu Can really felt helpless.

At this time, someone said: "General, Chentang is the first to see you." Lu Can frowned and said in his heart, how could Wei Ying come? He has not healed yet, and because of the terrible defeat in the East China Sea, many of his powers have been lost to Feng. The dance hall and the Yihuang hall were separated, and now it was time to keep a low profile, how could he come to meet him? However, although he despised Wei's despised person, he still values ​​his talent. Lu Can ordered Wei Ying to come in.

Wei Yin's expression was a little haggard. After all, getting out of the sea of ​​fire was not so easy. He was chased by Dayong along the way, and it was very difficult to return to Nanchu safely. He calmly bowed to Lu Can and smiled: "General Lu must have a headache. I don't know if I can speak up next?"

Lu Can said indifferently: "What is the wisdom of the first seat of Wei? The court already has a will, can this general still resist it?"

Wei Yin smiled and said: "The general is too roundabout. What is the point of resisting the decree? My father has long ignored the military. Southern Chu has three points of military power, and the general has two points. Jing Xiangshou general Rong Yuan is not as prestigious as the general, and he is usually more. Listening to the general's dispatch, if the general is willing, I would like to help the general to clear the side of the emperor and remove the errant traitors. From then on, the general can display his ambitions, he can also be attached to his tail, and get revenge. Wei Ying's heart can be shown every day. , I don’t know what the general said?"

Lu Can came up with the case and scolded: "Wei Ying, how can you say that there is no father and no king? You were in trouble at the beginning. If it were not for Shangxiang and the king, how could you have a foothold in Southern Chu, now Just gaining power, it’s like doing this kind of rebellion. Don’t blame me for turning my face and ruthlessly. I tied you to Shangxiang and let him see the ugly face of your Fengyi Sect."

He was so furious that the guards outside the account rushed in with weapons. Lu Can’s guard took a cold look at Wei Ying, and said: "General, does this person offend the general? Please tell me Next."

With a mocking smile on Wei Ying's face, he said: "General Lu, if you want to kill or get tied up, you have to wait until you have finished speaking from the bottom of your heart. Is it possible that the general doesn't dare to listen to it?"

Lu Can's face sank, and he waved his hand to make his guards retreat, saying: "Wei Ying, Nanchu is not Dayong, this general hopes you will do it yourself."

Wei Ying smiled slightly and said: "The general would like to know what Monk Gou Lian was talking about?"

Lu Can was taken aback, and said: "How do you know about such secret events?"

Wei Yin did not answer, and imitated Gou Lian’s tone: "The grandfather is the grandfather of the country, the guardian family, this sincerity is indescribable, but the survival of the country is not in the civil servants, but in the general of the military, now your country Three points of military power, two points for Lu Gong and his sons, and one point for Jing Xiang’s defender Rong Yuan. The soldiers in the hands of Xiang Ye can control only one city of Jianye, compared to Lu Xin Lu, General Lu Canlu and General Rong. It can be ignored. Although Lu Gongye is loyal to the emperor and patriotic, he will never embarrass his son. General Rong also obeys General Lu’s orders. If General Lu initiates a rebellion, your country’s society will be subverted instantly, which is General Lu’s heart. No ill intentions, the grandfather must be wary early. Now I have trouble in the northern borders of Dayong. General Lu is young and young, and is not afraid of the danger of being a car with a man’s arm. He even intends to cross the river and attack me. If he loses, under the anger of Emperor Dayong, When the Northern Xinjiang is in trouble, the teacher will surely rise up. When the two countries will join forces, blood will flow in a river, and the tragic situation of the past will inevitably reappear. Moreover, there are still brothers on the king who are hostage in our country. If the emperor is angry, he changes to a new king. How does Shanghe Xiangye deal with himself, if he wins, it is just my Da Yong fighting on both sides, and I have to retreat temporarily. Da Yong has a million soldiers and ample money and food. Even if he loses temporarily, it will not hurt his vitality. Victory and Yuwei, high power is the master, even if General Lu is unintentional, I am afraid that it will inevitably not be disagreeable when the time comes. Xiangye will always restrain General Lu, and then General Lu will set up the banner of the Qing monarch, I am afraid that Nanchu will respond. The prince inevitably has no place to bury his body. Even the noble royal family may also be caught by the pond. It can be seen that regardless of the victory or defeat, Yu Xiangye is unprofitable. It is for the prosperity and wealth. Once the army hides the sun, the power of the prince will be in vain. For the sake of the prince, there is no way to negotiate. In the past, your country was defeated, and you have made an agreement to indemnify every year. To this day, the soldiers and civilians of your country are still suffering from it. With this as a condition to negotiate with our country, our Majesty must agree to reduce or exempt compensation for the war in northern Xinjiang. When the time comes, the ruling and opposition parties must praise the grandfather’s merits, will it not be more than the harm of the military. If the master agrees, our country can also reconcile the Qin and Jin Dynasties with your country It’s good, my majesty is willing to promise the king with his lover, and when the princess and the time are ready, the two countries will be married. The Northern Han Dynasty has a strong army. It has not been ten or eight years and cannot be conquered. Your Majesty is keen on the war in Northern Xinjiang and hopes more. Discuss with Nanchu, I don’t know what the grandfather wants?"

Lu Can didn't understand it at first, and his face sank after only a few words. When Wei Ying finished speaking, he sighed and said, "Shangxiang must have agreed."

Wei Yin said coldly: "Gou Lian's tongue is full of flowers, Shang Weijun was taken prisoner by Da Yong in the past, and he was already terrified. He just wanted to steal security, not to mention that the general was holding a heavy army, and he was jealous of Shang Xiang, Lu The father-in-law is ill again, and now the peace talks have been negotiated. Unless the general uses military advice, there is no chance of recovery."

Lu Can's expression moved, and he said, "You came here today, did you mean you alone, or did you mean Fengyimen?"

Wei Yin looked a little anxious, and said: "They are afraid of Da Yong’s forces, how dare to fight Da Yong, they just want to use conspiracy and tricks and fight on the battlefield. They have no courage to participate. This time it’s mine. Meaning, but if the general is willing to raise troops, I promise they will choose to support the general."

Lu Can sighed deeply and said: "Wei first seat, I know that you are sincere today, but as a courtier of Southern Chu, Lu must never do such a ignorant thing, so I will not Raise soldiers, I will take your thoughts, and I won’t leak out today’s affairs. Go ahead."

Wei Yin said disappointedly: "Do you know that if you compromise today, you will never have the opportunity to set foot on the territory of Dayong?"

Lu Can said sternly: "No matter what happens in the future, Lu can't do anything unfaithful and unfilial. If the ministers can resist the remonstrance of the order and soldiers, then what is the imperial court? If Lu does such things, Nan Chu will never Wang Gang’s failure to reunify, instead of this, Lu Can would rather fight hard in the future to save the southern half of the Yangtze River."

Wei Yin sighed: "You are so loyal, how can you be Jiang Zhe’s opponent? No matter, I was blind. When you are the entrusted lord, since you have made a decision, I have nothing to say. It’s just that from now on, I may be offended, so please be considerate."

Lu Can’s eyes flashed murderously, and then he was discouraged: "I know you want to control Shang Xiang instead, but although Shang Xiang doesn’t know the military strategy, you may not be his opponent for those fighting things. In any case, if you Doing too much, don’t forget that I still have an army."

Wei Yin sighed softly and said: "If I can control Fengyi Gate, I will definitely get rid of Shang Weijun so that you can control the political affairs. Unfortunately, I can't do anything about it. That's it. It's what Wei wants to do. Maybe you can take advantage of your southern Chu army to take Chang'an." After that, Wei Ying turned and walked out. Lu Can wanted to call him out, but finally he didn't say anything. Since he can't do unfaithfulness and unfilial piety, then it is also the same to break with Wei Ying. Inevitable. After a deep sigh, Lu Can whispered: "Even if he is crushed to pieces, Lu must protect the picturesque country. It's just that this is a matter of conspiracy, but Lu is dead and can't live. If Mr. Jiang is here. , I must laugh at myself for being too pedantic. Ever since he was studying in the past, my husband used to make fun of him. Alas, I am not as free and easy as my husband after all."

Walking out of Lu Can's camp~IndoMTL.com~Wei Ying walked blankly for a long time, and it took a long time to recover from the complete disappointment. As the son of the prime minister and once served as a high-ranking official, Wei Ying’s military strategy can only be perfect. It's not just generality. Today, the Great Yong's army is strong, and the Southern Chu and the Northern Han are powerless to fight. Now is the only opportunity to attack between the north and the south and weaken the Great Yong's power. As long as the Great Yong suffers heavy losses, it will not be completely destroyed for a while. It is also unable to dominate the world again, if the world is unified, then its own hatred will no longer be able to avenge. Although Ling Yu, Ji Xia, and Yan Wushuang were also slightly versed in military and political affairs, they were short-sighted. They only wanted to make the Southern Chu more peaceful in the south of the Yangtze River. For them, Dayong wanted to destroy the Northern Han Dynasty and digest its people. Ten years is not enough, and although Southern Chu is dim and weak, after all, it occupies half of the country. As long as they hold the Yangtze River and are not afraid of Da Yong’s iron hoof going south, they would rather use various means to hinder Da Yong’s unification process, but dare not face the enemy. , For fear that Da Yong simply sent troops to Southern Chu first. In their hearts, there is a buffer of ten years, which is enough to allow Nanchu to accumulate strength and to ensure safety for at least a few decades. For them, the hatred of the Fengyi sect master was already yesterday's yellow flower. As long as they can be prosperous and wealthy, they are not willing to give up their lives and revenge. Now what they want most is to secretly control the Southern Chu dynasty, just like in Dayong in the past, and it is not in their interests to send troops between the two countries. These stupid short-sighted women, how can I get involved with them. The hatred was heavy, and Wei Ying came to his senses. He decisively gave up the useless complaints. Since he could not use Lu Can to send troops to Dayong, he had to use the power of Fengyimen to try his best to control Nanchu's government. Concentrate all the strength to avenge Dayong and Jiang Zhe. For this purpose, I would rather pay any price. A resolute look flashed across his face, and Wei Ying quickened his pace. He couldn't waste any more time.
