"What do you mean?" Hong Pingjiu's row of chairs suddenly stood up in annoyance, saying that everyone couldn't beat him, but if he said that everyone would betray the leader, how could he not be angry, he asked loudly: "Zuo Xiang, do you mean you don't trust everyone?" Do you think everyone is greedy for wealth and surrender? ”

Gu Wei shook his head and said: "No, no, but because, now in the Wu army, the Tianhuo Sect only accounts for a quarter, and the other three-quarters are forcibly recruited by us, and the military spirit is originally unstable, if it is divided and scattered, I am afraid that once the military heart is scattered, the army will retreat, and it will become a trend of thousands of miles, and we will have no chance." ”

Everyone was in great distress, could they just sit back and wait for death, and they all looked at Zuo Xiang Guyu.

Gu Wei smiled slightly, and said confidently: "Your Majesty, generals! The White Tiger Army killed more than 50,000 elite people of our Wu Kingdom, but the White Tiger Army also lost nearly 30,000 people, and one of our soldiers died to replenish one, but their soldiers died one less one. Now my country still has 100,000 heavenly troops, and the White Tiger Army's shrimp, soldiers, and crabs are only 150,000 together, and the two sides continue to fight, but I am afraid that his Ye Xiangdong's family will be lost. As a generalissimo of soldiers and horses, how could he Ye Xiangdong lose all his belongings. ”

Emperor Wang Deyue of Wu naturally didn't want to leave Jiangzhou City in his heart, especially since his five concubines were all pregnant, he couldn't leave Jiangzhou, and he couldn't let this hard-won Wu State collapse and fall, he naturally needed a main battle faction, and Gu Wei was the most determined main battle faction.

The emperor looked at the ministers, and then asked Zuo Xiang Gu Wei: "You say that he can't lose his military power, what do you mean?" ”

Gu Wei smiled slightly, for Gu Wei, he has no way out, he must succeed, other people in Wu can still be heroes in the rivers and lakes, one person can eat the whole family is not hungry, but Gu Wei can't, his whole family of more than 50 people, once he loses the big tree of Wu State, he will face the fate of the whole clan being killed - besides, as a farming family, their ancestors have never been good men in the rivers and lakes, and they can't be Jianghu people at all.

"Why is the prime minister laughing?" Deng Fang asked.

Gu Wei said confidently: "Your Majesty, do you know that the tax law reform that Emperor Han withdrew from last September was implemented for only three months, and it was abolished by the Han court at the beginning of this year?" ”

"I've heard about it."

"The court is corrupt, who knows if this tax law reform is changing the law to oppress the people?"

"Yes, these people in the court are bad."

"Ahem, everyone, we are the court now."

"Hahaha...... We are a good court, and they are not a good court. ”

Zuo Xiang continued.

"But everyone knows, why did the Han Court abolish the tax law and reform? That's because the reform of the tax law touched the interests of two kinds of people, the first type of people was the scholars, after the abolition of Entian, all the scholars had to pay grain taxes to the state, which would cause their tenants and domestic slaves to not survive, and eventually the scholars would have no name. Emperor Han wanted to take away their land, how could he let the scholars afford it? Gu Wei sneered and continued to speak to everyone: "Do you know how much land this scholar clan occupies in the whole country? ”

"How much?"

"yes, how much?"

"Isn't that a lot?"

Gu Wei said: "Half! Half of the country's land is the land of the scholars! In this world, the best land is all controlled by the scholars, so this is why the Han Emperor wants to reform the tax law, because without the reform, the Holy Han Kingdom can only perish. Emperor Taiqian of the Holy Han Dynasty spent thirty years to solve this problem, but his solution was not to suppress the scholars, but to expand the territory outward, he first expelled the barbarians and Jing people in Lingnan, and encouraged the people to seize the land of the southerners, and achieved the first six years of Taiqian Zhongxing.

However, later he saw that the seizure of land brought benefits to the country, so he marched to the northeast region north of Longmen Pass, in a vain attempt to seize the Birch River Plain, but was defeated by the Beiyi people and the Yan people, and then sent the Qinglong Army to seize the Yashan Plain in the north of the Saibei, that is, the Yajin granary, and the Qinglong Army was completely annihilated by the Inuyi countries. The reason why the Han Emperor practiced tyranny and the reason why the officials were corrupt and bullied the people was because the court had no silver, and the officials could not even pay their salaries, so they had to plunder the people in order to live well.

Ladies and gentlemen, Emperor Dade wanted to take back that half of the land, but unfortunately he took too big a step, so at the end of last year, the Shi clan united to launch a palace rebellion, trying to let King Jin replace Emperor Dade, but it was suppressed. Emperor Dade was able to suppress the rebellion, thanks to the crown prince Taibao Zhang Xiaowu, this son is a famous general in the north, leading 10,000 ghost guards to resist the 200,000 dog Yi army, famous all over the world, known as the ghost general. Now, Emperor Dade has Zhang Xiaowu's knife in his hand, which is enough to deal with anyone. Dushanbo has always been rebellious, I heard that he didn't want to support Dade as the emperor, but the courtiers forced each other, Dade knelt down and promised to marry Dushanbo's granddaughter as the queen, which made Dushanbo reluctantly support.

Ladies and gentlemen, why did Emperor Dade be so afraid of Dushanbo, and why did he support the ghost general Zhang Xiaowu to be the second knife, this knife is not against others, but against Dushanbo. Therefore, I judge that Du Shanbo will even give up some of his territory, and even if we take the initiative, he will deliberately lose to Ading County, the capital of Jiangzhou, to us, because he wants to keep his elite army to use against the emperor who may unload the mill and kill the donkey at any time. ”

Everyone suddenly realized, Wu Emperor Wang Deyue in order to support Gu Wei's remarks, personally led 10,000 troops to attack Ading County, defeated the Han army in Ading County in one fell swoop, and then Wang Deyue continued to attack Beng County, Suchang Prefecture, after three days of hard fighting, the Wu army conquered Beng County, Wu Army after a year and a half of hard fighting, finally achieved two consecutive victories since the White Tiger Army went south.

These two consecutive victories are of great significance, telling Wu a truth, the White Tiger Army is not invincible, Wu people are full of confidence, continue to attack Suchang Mansion, but were met with a strong counterattack by the White Tiger Army, Wu Army was forced to retreat to Bengxian.

Wang Deyue fought a defeat, but he was excited, and when he led the army back to Jiangzhou City, he was supported by the people, and among the crowd, he caught a glimpse of the "fairy" who congratulated him with a slight smile in the distance, and suddenly, like a lightning bolt, hit his heart.

Wang Deyue finally understood what he was looking forward to the most, not to welcome the queen back, but to establish a new queen, and that person was the fairy Tao Zhiruo. If the fairy is married to the palace, not only will the six palaces have no color, but they will also win the hearts of the people, which is much better than the yellow-faced woman who can only be jealous and make trouble.

Back at the palace, Wang Deyue summoned Gu Wei and asked him if he could set up another queen, Gu Wei was shocked and said: "Your Majesty, never!" ”

Wang Deyue said: "I want to make the fairy the queen." ”

Gu Wei suddenly didn't know what to say, it was naturally a good idea to set up Fairy Tao as the queen, but this was a double sword, on the one hand, it won the hearts of the people, but on the other hand, it lost the hearts of the people of the Heavenly Fire Sect.
