Chapter 250 The Calculation of Military Power

Zhang Qiyuan's face was solemn, and he said, "Wang Xiu won consecutive battles in adversity, and the light soldiers rushed to Lanling, which is simply a wonderful stroke, and the meaning is absolutely heavy, the former Han Cao Mengde burned the black nest is nothing more than that, Song Kou was defeated in the fire in Lanling, and Wang Xiu also saved a life because of the fire." "言*情*首*发 [latest chapter reading baoliny] Copy URL visit wèn: 7777772e766f6474772e636f6d dagger dagger, you have no food and grass, what kind of war are you fighting"

"Hehe, Wang Hao's calculation is good, but unfortunately I didn't expect it to be this ending, Wang Xiu sat very well." Zhao Huan smiled gloatingly, he was very happy to make Wang Hao deflated, although he didn't appreciate Wang Xiu, after all, people contributed to the country.

Zhang Qiyuan pouted, he didn't value Wang Hao, in his eyes, whether it was Wang Hao or Li Bangyan, Cai You and others, they were all prodigal sons who didn't learn and didn't know how to do anything, they just relied on flattery to gain power, he was also a little junior and had a low status, if he was placed in a slightly lower position, he could completely blow up these capable ministers.

Wang Xiu really has real talent and learning, and this small-scale battle made him more aware of Wang Xiu, decisive, ruthless, and dangerous, and an extremely dangerous opponent.

Thinking about it, he couldn't help but glance at Zhao Huan, and secretly strengthened his confidence, he must firmly lean under the big tree of the prince, one day he will trample Wang Xiu under his feet, no matter how capable you are, it is useless not to be favored by the emperor, and finally make wedding dresses for others.

"The official family asked Cai Gengdao to preside over the bandit adaptation, and added an official to Wang Xiu, and let him lead the troops south, all of which were advocated by Wang Huang, and the Qing family said that Wang Xiu was sure of this. I'm not very optimistic, the power of the thieves is too great. "Zhao Huan doesn't think that Wang Xiu can do it, Fang La is not Song Jiang, yesterday's golden brand Guantang, there are more than 100,000 anti-thieves in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and the officials and soldiers are invincible.

Zhang Qiyuan was not good at disobeying Zhao Huan, but he didn't agree, so he had to say euphemistically, "Wang Xiu is cunning, judging from the war in Xuzhou, he has a deep understanding of the art of war." However, His Royal Highness is right, with the prince in the two mansions, I'm afraid he won't be able to show it. ”

"The Qing family's tone chatted, it seemed a little unbearable" Zhao Huan heard Zhang Qiyuan's tone hesitate, and couldn't help but feel good.

"Wang Xiu and Chen are classmates, he showed his talent by chance, I don't want him to fall early and lose a bosom friend." Zhang Qiyuan also gambled, betting on Zhao Huan's appreciation of him, and secretly laid the groundwork for framing Wang Xiu.

"You are the enemy" Zhao Huan's face sank, his eyes were quite sharp, he didn't like two-faced characters.

Zhang Qiyuan didn't care, and said resolutely, "Although the minister doesn't dare to boast of Yu Liang, he and Wang Xiu have always gotten along, and the two have been able to part ways." ”

"Huh." Zhao Huan looked at Zhang Qiyuan strangely, and found that his face was full of sincerity, and couldn't help but smile and said, "The Qing family is an honest person." ”

To be an honest person, at least in front of the person who decides his own fate, it is best to be an honest person, Zhang Qiyuan breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that he was in Zhao Huan's mind, and his image was thicker, and said with a smile, "The minister is just talking about things, no matter what, the minister admires Wang Xiu's ability to govern the country very much, and it is enough for those who only know how to flatter the lord and seek wealth, and they have a confidant in life."

"A good confidant in life, don't be arrogant to the Qing family, Wang Xiu is just one step ahead, I think the Qing family will never be inferior to him." Zhao Huan smiled, his eyes turned to the fish tank again, and he seemed to say to himself, "When the koi fish turns into a dragon, it is a good time to show your ambitions, and you still need to be patient."

Zhang Qiyuan's heart moved, and Zhao Huan said his secret in front of him, which was enough to show that he had completely integrated into Zhao Huan's camp at this moment, and he could no longer have any thoughts, otherwise he would suffer a thunderous blow. However, his mood was also excited, Zhao Huan gave him a promise, as a scholar, he is no longer Zhang Qiyuan of Shangshui County, several years of experience has made him continue to realize that he was like a frog at the bottom of the well, fighting all day long, looking back on it is ridiculous.

Thinking about it again, Wang Xiu's deeds, his scalp suddenly numb, it seems that Wang Xiu's every step is carefully calculated, and every step is paving the way for the future.

Wang Xiu walked in front of him, and he was making great achievements, which also made him envious, but with Zhao Huan's promise, his eagerness faded. On the contrary, he had the idea of helping Wang Xiu, so that this guy could accumulate qualifications and return to the court, so as not to be completely suppressed by Wang Huang, otherwise he would really have no one to play.

"Your Highness, since Wang Xiu has left the prince with nothing to say, why don't your Highness push the boat down the river." Zhang Qiyuan smiled wickedly.

"What do you mean by that" Zhao Huan said with a smile, he understood what Zhang Qiyuan meant.

"The snipe and the clam compete, and the fisherman profits." Zhang Qiyuan didn't say it explicitly, believing that Zhao Huan could understand.

Zhao Huan groaned slightly, smiled, and said playfully, "The Qing family is not kind." ”

"Since people are unkind, don't blame me for being unjust, Your Highness will consider it." Zhang Qiyuan's face was upright.

The edict of the imperial court was long overdue, it was already the end of December, the sky was cold, the snow was falling, and the whole Xuzhou was shrouded in a white world.

There were more than a dozen charcoal copper basins burning in the hall of the county government, which was full of warmth, and Wang Xiu, Song Jiang and others were sitting in the hall, but people's faces were not very good-looking.

The edict ordered Cai Gengdao to be the envoy of Zhao'an, and divided the official positions of Song Jiang and others, all of which were nothing more than low-level military attachés such as patrol inspections. What made them look bad was that they immediately went to their posts on the day of the reward, which meant that they handed over the entire army and became a loner.

The most hateful thing is that their soldiers and horses will be disrupted and absorbed by reinforcements from various military states, isn't this forcing people to rebel again

Wang Xiu knew that everyone was angry, and if he didn't make a mess, he had to ask Song Jiang and others to discuss, and first stabilize people's hearts.

Fortunately, that night, he did not capture Shi Jin, nor did he take advantage of the chaos, always restrained the horse team and let Shi Jin go, winning the favor of a cadre of people. Of course, if he really wants to fight, he is not afraid of Song Jiang, but he can only lose both, so that others can get a big advantage.

The next day, Song Jiang announced that he would accept the imperial court's edict, and the soldiers and horses retreated into various camps, in addition to normal patrols and alerts, the attack on the city of Liguo was lifted, and all Guantang freely entered and exited Liguo, which also bought time for Wang Xiu, and at least gave Wang Hao a resounding slap.

Wang Xiu also entertained a small banquet for three days and a large banquet for five days, trying to have a good relationship with these unruly people, and deliberately had a good relationship with Guan Sheng, Lu Junyi, Wu Yong, Li Jun and others, and deliberately selected their elite soldiers.

"The imperial court has made a decree, and there is no way to change it." Facing everyone with very ugly faces, Wang Xiu thought about it thousands of times in his heart, and decided to do it according to his own proposal.

Song Jiang didn't speak with a dark face, but Shi Jin said with a big grin, "Disperse our brothers, and transfer the soldiers and horses, what does the imperial court want to do, do you want to separate us?"

Wang Xiu glanced at Shi Jin, he couldn't wait to slaughter this guy, but he couldn't ignore the overall situation, endure it, anyway, this guy must die, don't rush for a while, he said lightly, "The edict of the official family cannot be disobeyed, now you are also the officials of the imperial court, you should focus on the overall situation." ”

Shi Jin was very unconvinced, and was about to speak when Guan Sheng pulled him along, muttered and stopped talking, but glared at Wang Xiu hatefully, as if he was about to burst out and kill someone.

Wang Xiu didn't want to pay attention to this kind of unruly person at all, he calmly said to Song Jiang, "Eunuch, I have played the imperial court, and I am ready to select elite soldiers under your command, once it is finished, go south with me, and we will make meritorious deeds." ”

Song Jiang's eyebrows moved, he understood what Wang Xiu meant, some words were hidden, and they couldn't be said when there were many people. He cleared his throat and said slowly, "Brothers, don't worry, Lord Wang will never treat us badly, you go to the back to eat and drink first." ”

"I'll go with my brother." Li Kui, who was full of beards and tall horses, looked unwilling, and stared at Wang Xiu with a pair of fierce eyes.

He was very unfriendly to Wang Xiu, and the siege of the city for several days caused heavy losses to his brothers, he was defeated twice when he landed in the city, and was almost killed by a crossbow arrow, and his friend Lei Heng died in the hands of Wang Xiu, which made him instinctively hostile to Wang Xiu.

"You, you don't dare to step down for me." Wu looked at Li Kui with his eyes and scolded sharply.

Li Kui looked at Wu Yong, and then at Song Jiang's warning gaze, Ruan Xiaoqi smiled, pulled Li Kui's sleeve and left, he had to shrink his head and follow out.

There were Wang Xiu, Song Jiang, Wu Yong, and Lu Junyi left in the room, and Wu Yong spoke first, "I don't know what happened to the court, is there someone who embarrass my brothers." ”

"It's for me that you have suffered from the fish in the pond." Wang Xiu smiled indifferently, and said with a straight face, "Some people don't want us to make contributions, don't worry, they are not targeting you." The edict asked the guards everywhere to collect soldiers and horses, and I also participated in it, I am afraid that some people in the imperial court will not be able to cover the sky with one hand, this is an opportunity. ”

Lu Junyi's face hesitated, and he said, "My brother is newly attached to the imperial court, and if he rashly gets involved in right and wrong, I am afraid that he will be shattered." ”

However, it's simple to kill and flash, don't say whether he can kill it or not, just with the elite soldiers of Liguo, there are not many people left who can kill him.

"It's a bit of a right and wrong, it's too much to say." Wang Xiu pursed his lips and said, "Nearly 20,000 people are placed in anyone's body, and the imperial court cannot be reassured, it is imperative to incorporate into various armies, this is the law of the imperial court, and no one can change it." Song Jiang and the others had gloomy faces, they also understood that it was absolutely impossible for brothers to get together, the court had a maximum of more than 10,000 soldiers and horses, and it was only available on the Sixth Road in Shaanxi, and there were only six or seven thousand generals in the mainland, and in remote areas such as Liangzhejiang Road and Fujian Road, there were only 3,000 people in one general, and there was no deputy general. It's a joke that you can keep 10,000 soldiers and horses, I'm afraid that his original soldiers and horses will be divided among the generals. "What do you mean." Wu Yong wanted to speak and stopped, he was not sure of Wang Xiu's intentions, this young man made him deeply jealous whether he was resourceful or courageous
