Chapter 142 shows strength

Wang Pu said: "The Khitan people are valuing profit and have no trust, and they are greedy, if we show weakness to them, the Khitans will inevitably think that our strength in the Central Plains of the Great Zhou Dynasty has been greatly damaged, although the victory is still defeated." Eighty-one? Middle? Literature Network ? In this situation, it is like a lonely and helpless child, who can only be beaten and scolded, and has no ability to fight back. It's no wonder that the Khitans don't take the opportunity to go south. Therefore, we have to show our strength to make the Khitan people feel uneasy, let them continue to hesitate, and buy time for our Great Zhou. ”

Wang Pu didn't finish saying this, this matter is so noisy, the Khitan may be temporarily bluffed, but he will eventually slide to the Chu State. So, he used the phrase "buy time".

Guo Rong pondered for a while, smiled slightly, and said, "This time, count them as lucky in the Chu Kingdom." Just do what Mr. said, encourage the momentum of Da Zhou, and let the world know that my Da Zhou is not Shi Jin, if you want to be rounded, you can rub it round, and if you want to be rubbed flat, you can knead it flat! ”

Wang Pu saw Guo Rong with a smile on his face, but after a closer look, he saw a trace of melancholy hanging from the corner of his eyes, and knew that he was still a little uneasy in his heart. At that moment, he asked again: "Does Your Majesty still have doubts in his heart?" ”

Guo Rong looked at Wang Pu in surprise, and the smile on his face gradually stiffened, and finally turned into a deep sigh.

Silence is better than sound at this point. Wang Pu also knew that the pressure in Guo Rong's heart must be extremely great. At present, this environment is indeed too bad, if the sixteen states of Yanyun are in hand, even if there are Khitan iron horses in the north, relying on the terrain of Youyan, at least Hebei can become a pure land... But now, except for Guanzhong, there is not an inch of land in the dignified Great Zhou that is no longer under the threat of the enemy. This is a clear account.

And what about the secret tents? The Khitan people are rampant and murderous, and the people in Hebei are extremely hateful to the Khitans, which can naturally be used as a help, but in the face of the Chu State in the south, the Great Zhou is really a little powerless. Take the initiative to attack, win the fight, consume yourself is losing, and if you can't win, you will lose to your grandma's house. If you don't attack, if you don't attack, in less than two years, the Chu State will definitely find trouble with the Great Zhou, the reason is very simple, he will definitely not sit back and watch the Great Zhou recover his national strength. Taking a step back, even if the Chu State does not attack, however, the Great Zhou tax is heavy and the Chu State tax is light, and the people on the border secretly flee to the Chu State are innumerable, which is simply unstoppable. If you want to prevent the people from absconding, you can only lure them to profit and reduce taxes, but Chu has overseas taxes that can be used as a supplement. None of the ships in the Great Zhou court went to sea, and the sea was all under the control of the Chu army. In desperation, the Great Zhou wanted to reopen the Silk Road, but unfortunately, the Silk Road has been interrupted for a hundred years, and it is extremely difficult to open the Western Regions again.

However, it is not impossible to reverse the situation, your own capital is small, but as long as you have a vicious vision, see the steps, and take one step at a time, the other party will always make mistakes.

Wang Pu said with a smile: "Your Majesty, the minister dares to conclude that if the Khitan and the Great Zhou fight, the Khitan will lose, and the Great Zhou will win." Maybe we can recover the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun. ”

Guo Rong was stunned for a moment, his mind was still on the demonstration, he was worried that the Khitans would go south, but he didn't expect Wang Pu to say that even if the Khitans went south, they would lose.

Guo Rong said: "Please sir to solve my doubts." ”

"Since Han Gaozu Jing was difficult to come, the Khitan was in chaos, there were many infighting, and many of the lords and generals withered, and the rest were on the side of Gao Mohan. Now Gao Mohan is wrecked, if the Khitan people really go south, the one who commands the army must be Yelu Tart, Tart Lie's child relies on the identity of the royal family, and does not know the military, although Yelu Jing is not stupid, but after all, he is known as the 'Wine Fairy Sleeping King', he uses ministers, can help him keep power, and how can he help him settle the world, it is nothing more than Xiao Gui Cao Sui, inheriting Yelu Deguang's set of things, but unfortunately, Yelu Deguang is not Xiao He, he is not Cao Shen, Khitan is far inferior to Yelu Deguang's era. As the saying goes, thousands of troops are easy to get and hard to find, let Tart Lie be a big handsome, and all the incompetent people such as thorns are used, can Khitan An be undefeated? So, Your Majesty can rest assured. Wang Pu analyzed.

Wang Pu did not analyze it from the objective national strength, but directly from the personnel point of view. Speaking of national strength and military strength, the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, and the Khitans are still stronger than the Great Zhou, but they are far inferior in talent. Most of the outstanding Khitan talents of Yelu Deguang's generation have no choice but to fall with the passage of time. The rest are all sons and brothers who have not gone through a big scene, so much so that Yang Gon made a fuss in the Central Plains, and they are all regarded as famous generals by the Khitans. Yang Gon's set of things is something that Yelu Deguang is not willing to play, how fierce Yelu Deguang was back then, canonized the emperor of the Central Plains! With such strength, can people use it to fight guerrilla warfare for you?

Wang Pu continued: "The real problem at the moment is the combination of the two powers. One south and one north clamp the Great Zhou. Once, they echo each other and jointly send troops, Da Zhou Ke will be in danger. ”

"In my opinion, what should we do?"

Wang Pu thought for a long time and said, "Your Majesty, there is a way for the minister, but I don't know if Your Majesty is willing to give up. ”

"But the west enters the Guanzhong and abandons the Central Plains?" Guo Rong asked. Although enriching Guanzhong is already the basic national policy of the Great Zhou, for some reason, when he speaks, Guo Rong always has a faint bitterness in his heart.

"Your Majesty, do you feel that by discarding the Central Plains, my Great Zhou will lose the foundation of dominating the world?" Wang Pu asked.

Guo Rong looked at Wang Pu, gritted his teeth, and finally said, "Sir, I... I... The state of Chu is expanding too fast, and I am really uneasy in my heart. "Guo Rong wants to say, no matter how much we care, the other party is also seeing the move, let's give up the Central Plains, in case he Chu State turns his face and turns the Central Plains into a paradise for the Fengjia side, Da Zhou is hard to stay in Guanzhong, then... Isn't that self-defeating? But when he said this, he seemed to be a little distrustful of Wang Pu, and in the end, he was still vaguely passed by Guo Rong.

Wang Pu smiled: "Your Majesty, what the minister wants to say is another way." ”

Guo Rong was stunned for a moment, daring to love Lao Wang didn't say that the old tune of moving west was repeated.

"What is your best plan, sir?"

"Your Majesty, the minister also said just now, our current problem is the convergence of the two powers. But what if we break this confluence? ”

"Breaking the confluence?" Guo Rong was stunned. Wang Pu's meaning, he understood it, Wang Pu wanted to take risks, and wanted to turn passive into active. But Da Zhou is not rich.

Wang Pu said: "Your Majesty, if the alliance between the Khitan and the Chu State is unstoppable, then we might as well take the lead." They are one in the south and one in the north, and the news is closed, even if they can send troops at the same time, it is impossible to cooperate strategically seamlessly, and we are not without opportunities. Moreover, at present, the new army of Chu has not been completed, and in the short term, it is unlikely that the Khitan will send troops, and the Khitans are consumed and infighting, if we use some means, for a while, it is possible for the Khitan and Chu to form an alliance, but it is unlikely that the Khitan will immediately go south because of this. To put it bluntly, why does the state of Chu want to form an alliance with the Khitan, one is to respond to each other when attacking, and the other is the current situation, the state of Chu is defeated, there is no elite soldier in a hundred battles, he needs the Khitan to send troops to the south and fight with us, so that our Great Zhou has no chance to recuperate. ”

"You mean, let's take the initiative to attack the Khitan?" Guo Rong was extremely surprised.

"Yes, what the minister means is that we will take the lead, break them one by one, and beat them up in time." Wang Pu said with a smile.

Guo Rong was stunned for a while, and he asked, "How did this grain come from?" We don't have much military rations, we can't last too long... Besides, the elite army has just been brought to Liangzhou by Kuang Yin. We only have 70,000 or 80,000 troops. Of course, this plan is very risky, but Guo Rong didn't say anything stupid like "will this plan be too risky", there is nothing in the world that is not risky, the key is whether he is feasible or not, and how feasible is it?

"Now at the end of winter, when the spring flowers bloom, the mountains are full of wild vegetables, and the people can temporarily satisfy their hunger, so that the surplus grain in their homes can be temporarily lent to the army, and there is another way, that is, because of the grain to the enemy." Wang Pu continued: "The Khitans did not hoard too many troops in the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun, and these armies were also negligent in guarding against them. The Khitans have been strong for a long time, and although they dare not go south for the time being, they never thought that we would dare to go north. This can catch them off guard. Even the Yanjing Mansion under the rule of Yelu Tart Lie claimed to be ready to go south, but in fact, he didn't understand military affairs at all, and those so-called preparations were child's play. ”

"If our army enters the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun, how will the Khitan and Chu countries react?" Guo Rong asked in a deep voice, he flew around thinking about Wang Pu's plan. This plan is indeed very, very risky and strategically hampering. On the one hand, he was exploring the Western Regions, but on the other hand, he suddenly provoked a battle in the northern Xinjiang. But once it succeeds, the benefits will be too great, and the big one will make the calm Guo Rong excited.

Guo Rong is not a reckless person after all, he also thought of this matter in an instant, if he loses, what will be the result? One of his main forces collapsed, and the Central Plains was about to be lost, so he could only retreat to Guanzhong. Retreat to Guanzhong... A cold light flashed in Guo Rong's eyes, since they all retreated to Guanzhong, this plan can be tried. Of course, Guo Rong understands that he took the initiative to retreat to Guanzhong and was beaten back to Guanzhong, this situation and reputation are obviously worlds apart, and the situation may be unstable at that time.

"The State of Chu has nothing to say, it will definitely send troops to the north, but how many troops will be sent out, there is something special about this. Ma Yun and others are not impulsive people, even if they want to sell it to the Khitan, they will never give up their training plan. The goal of the state of Chu is very clear, that is, the world. If he fights all the elite soldiers with our Great Zhou, what will he do against the Khitans? Wang Pu said.
