Chapter 216: The Art of Controlling People

Ji Wen couldn't help but snort when he heard it: "What do you know?" First pacified Zhang Shumo, but the national teacher confessed before he died. First level the chapter of the book and ink, then destroy the West Route Army, and finally exterminate the Jiudu Village, this king remembers clearly! ”

"Lord Wang, when the national teacher said these words, he didn't know that Qinghua City had been lost. Moreover, the problem of our lack of grain and grass has not been solved, and if we do not defeat Qinghua City and recapture grain and grass from Jiudu Village, our army will not last long. Hao Yang still said.

Ji Wen hesitated after hearing this, what Hao Yang said also made some sense, and Ji Wen didn't know what to do for a while. So he looked at Geng Li: "What does General Geng think?" ”

Geng Li immediately said: "My subordinates also think that Qinghua City should be recaptured first. Qinghua City is the main road to Jingguo, and after losing it, it is like being choked by someone, how can you ignore it? ”

After listening to this, Ji Wen thought in his heart: The biggest problem at the moment is still grain and grass, if you want to recapture the grain and grass, you must attack Jiudu Village, but you can't directly attack Jiudu Village across Qinghua City, so if you want to fight Jiudu Village, you have to fight Qinghua City first. However, in this way, it is contrary to the explanation of the national teacher. Zhou Gang is scheming, and before he died, he deliberately confessed that he must have his intentions to hit Zhang Shumo first, but why?

Thinking of this, Ji Wen expressed his concerns. But how could Geng Li and Hao Yang know Zhou Gang's thoughts, and the three of them discussed for a long time without any result. At this time, Ji Wen suddenly remembered Yang Xue, Yang Xue was quick to think, maybe she could put forward different opinions on this matter.

So Ji Wen thought about Hao Yang and asked, "Where is Yang Xue now?" ”

Hao Yang chuckled in his heart, and hurriedly replied, "Madame should still be in the room now." ”

"How is she now?" Ji Wen asked again.

"Madame is not in a very good mood. Yesterday I asked the doctor to treat her, but she refused. ”

Ji Wen snorted coldly after hearing this: "You guys retreat first, I'll go see her!" ”

When he came to Yang Xue's room, Ji Wen found that the door could not be opened with a bolt. So he shouted inside: "Bold Yang Xue, don't you hurry up and open the door, do you want this king to break in?" ”

As soon as Yang Xue heard Ji Wen's voice, she narrowed her eyes, she thought for a moment, turned out a slender hairpin and hid it in her sleeve, and then opened the door.

Ji Wen saw that the blood stains on Yang Xue's forehead had not been wiped off, and he looked sloppy and sloppy, and was very dissatisfied: "Bold, you see that this king doesn't tidy up his appearance, what kind of body has he become!" ”

Yang Xue sneered: "Didn't the prince reward me to his subordinates?" Why did you come to see me? ”

Ji Wen laughed when he heard this: "Everything here is mine, and the things of the next person are also mine, why can't I see you?" This king is just to let you understand that women are just playthings to this king. When I love you, I will naturally pamper you, and if I get tired of playing, you are worthless! ”

After hearing this, Yang Xue showed anger on her face, she shrunk her hand into her sleeve, took out the hairpin and stabbed Ji Wen fiercely.

But Ji Wen grabbed Yang Xue's wrist as soon as he could, so that Yang Xue's hand couldn't play. Then she snatched out the hairpin in her hand and said playfully: "I'm angry and want to kill me?" I didn't expect you to be so self-conscious. ”

Yang Xue spat on Ji Wen's face: "Phew! If you have the ability, you will kill me! ”

"Kill you? Think beautifully! A weird smile appeared on Ji Wen's face: "Tell you, I have many ways to make your life worse than death!" So you'd better get acquainted with each other, either to please me, or to prove to me that you're still useful! ”

Hearing this, Yang Xue sneered in her heart, Ji Wen finally took the bait!

It turned out that the assassination of Ji Wen just now was deliberately done by Yang Xue. She understands that if she wants to regain Ji Wen's trust, she must show her hatred for Ji Wen, making Ji Wen feel that she was forced to obey obediently.

Yang Xue's eyes flickered, and she asked tentatively, "How to prove it?" Doesn't the prince dislike me? ”

Ji Wen laughed: "This king is just for the sake of husband and wife, I want to give you another chance, as long as you serve this king, the previous things will be written off, you are still the king's concubine!" ”

"What if I don't agree?"

"Then don't blame me for turning my face and not recognizing people!" Ji Wen's face showed a hint of hideousness: "I still have a lot of subordinates who haven't been rewarded!" ”

When Yang Xue heard this, she trembled with fright, and she quickly knelt on the ground: "The concubine is willing to serve the prince!" ”

"That's right! You clean up immediately, this king has something to ask you. Ji Wen touched Yang Xue's head and smiled smugly. Obviously, he was very satisfied with his mastery.

After a while, Yang Xue packed up and came to Ji Wen's room, but the scar on her forehead was still clearly visible.

When Ji Wen saw Yang Xue coming, he said straight to the point: "This king thinks you are quite smart, so there are some things I want to ask your opinion." Before the national teacher passed away, he reminded me to type Zhang Shumo first, why do you think the national teacher let this king do this? ”

Yang Xue thought for a moment and said, "This shows that the national teacher is very jealous of Zhang Shumo. Among the enemies of Xuliang County, the Northern Route Army has been broken up, and there is nothing to worry about. The Western Route Army was originally trapped in the city in the previous period, and as long as the prince blocked their supplies, they could not attack themselves. Only Zhang Shumo's side has the most fierce development momentum, if you don't take advantage of its weakness to eliminate it, it will definitely have endless troubles. ”

Ji Wen nodded thoughtfully, in his opinion, Yang Xue's guess was consistent with Zhou Gang's opinion, so he continued to ask: "Now Jiudu Village has robbed the king's grain and grass, resulting in a slight shortage of grain and grass in our army, so we must take back the grain and grass." And the Western Route Army occupied Thanh Hoa City and broke through the blockade of our army. Once you go to attack the West Route Army and Jiudu Village, it will leave room for Zhang Shumo to develop, what do you think our army should do? ”

Yang Xue said without hesitation: "Hit Qinghua City first!" Thanh Hoa City is a transportation artery, and the prince must control it in his own hands. Moreover, our army has just experienced a defeat in the Great Tea Castle, and it already has lingering fears about the Wu Xiu Army. Fight Thanh Hoa City first to regain morale! The prince can order Ma Hua to abandon Mengzhou City and concentrate superior forces to attack Qinghua City, without fighting with the Western Route Army, just drive them back to the city in the previous period. Then attack Jiudu Village to recapture the grain and grass, which can solve the worries of grain and grass. ”

"What about Zhangshumo?" Ji Wen asked again.

"The prince can order Geng Li to lead people to constantly harass the big tea castle, only disturbing and not fighting, in order to suppress Zhang Shumo. Once the rear is calmed, the prince can concentrate his troops and horses to attack Zhang Shumo! ”

Ji Wen nodded with satisfaction after listening, and after Yang Xue's analysis, the situation in the northwest seemed to be clearer again.

So Ji Wen summoned Hao Yang and Geng Li again and told Yang Xue's words to the two of them as they were. The two immediately praised Ji Wen's wisdom, which made Ji Wen's heart bloom.

Next, Ji Wen ordered Geng Li to stay in Xiuwuzhi with 20,000 horses, and let him harass the Great Tea Castle from time to time. I moved Xu Liangcheng and began to deploy troops, and the northwest region is about to usher in a bloody storm again!
