Chapter 11 Clever tongue

Early the next morning, Wu Wangfu sent a lifting tent, and when he saw that Bo Yao was already waiting in the military tent, he said, "Why did Dazai get up so early?" ”

Bo Yao accepted Fan Li's heavy gift, and had already thought of a rhetoric in his heart, this fashion sighed pretentiously, and said, "It's not all about King Yue. I didn't sleep well all night, and it annoyed me. ”

Fucha said: "Gou Jian has only a few thousand soldiers under him, and defeating the Vietnamese army today is like reaching into his pocket and taking out something, where is it worth Dazai's sleepless night?" ”

Bo Yao said: "Didn't Gou Jian send Wen to ask for peace last night? As a result, you were scolded back by the monarch. ”

The husband said, "Yes, that's right. ”

Bo Yao said: "But that Gou Jian is not dead, after Wen Chong went back, he sent Fan Li over." ”

The husband glanced at Bo Yao vigilantly: "Fan Li is looking for you?" ”

Bo Yao said helplessly: "Yes, he doesn't look for others, only for me, and the minister has to receive him out of politeness." Otherwise, wouldn't it be a joke to let the people of the world know that the dignified Dazai of the Wu Kingdom did not even dare to receive the envoys of the Yue Kingdom? ”

Fucha said: "Dazai and Fan Li have talked? ”

Bo Yao said: "Yes, the minister talked to him a few words. ”

The husband said, "What are you talking about?" ”

Bo Yao said: "It's still the same old topic, the matter of King Yue's request for peace and surrender." ”

Fucha was angry and said, "Dazai, didn't we already make a conclusion about this when we talked to Wengen? Do not accept surrender, fight a decisive battle today, and kill Gou Jian. ”

Bo Yao said: "Yes, I also told Fan Li, I said to him: 'Don't talk nonsense, go back and tell Gou Jian, prepare for war.'" See the high and low on the battlefield. 'Guess what Fan Li said? ”

Fucha said: "What did Fan Li say? ”

"Fan Li said: 'If the Yue State still has the strength to compete with the Wu State, it will not come to surrender, and now the Yue State only has 5,000 remnants, how can it deal with the hundreds of thousands of troops of the Wu State? When the fight started, it was also a matter of eggs hitting stones, and the Vietnamese army had no hope of victory. So King Yue once again sent Fan Li to ask for surrender. ’”

The husband was furious: "The revenge of killing my father is not shared." I can't wait to catch Goujian, peel and cramp, and I can't solve the hatred in my heart! ”

Bo Yao nodded in agreement and said, "How can a minister not know the king's heart? I said to Fan Li: There is nothing to talk about here, go back and prepare for war. Who knew that at this time, Fan Li sneered at me and said a word, which shocked the minister's heart. ”

The husband said, "What did he say?" ”

Bo Yao said: "Fan Li looked at me very contemptuously and said: 'We are all courtiers who assist the king, and the most important thing to be a courtier is to be loyal. I was angry at the time, pointed to Fan Li's nose and said, 'You make it clear, why am I disloyal?' Fan Li sneered and said, "I heard that the good ministers do not blindly obey the king's will without a bottom line, but should point out the king's inconsiderate points in a timely manner, so as not to let the king go further and further down the wrong path." Now that I see that Dazai clearly knows that King Wu has made a wrong decision, not only does he not dissuade him, but he goes to pry the king, can you be considered a loyal minister? Fan Li's words made me sweat down. I said that my king is invincible, dominating the world, and it is just around the corner, what is wrong? Fan Li said: 'It is wrong for King Wu not to accept the surrender of Yue! Then Fan Li said something to me, I think what he said is really reasonable, but I don't dare to make a decision on my own, so I said, this is a major matter, you should go directly to our king. Fan Li said: 'I knew it was useless to say to you, so I won't look for you' and left in a huff. ”

When the husband heard Bo Yao say this, he also felt curious, and he didn't know what he had done wrong, so he said, "What did Fan Li say to you?" ”

Bo Yao said: "Fan Li didn't need to alarm the king last night? ”

The husband said, "It's useless, I slept all night, and no one is looking for me." ”

Bo Yao: "Fan Li is still a little blind, he doesn't dare to disturb the king's rest, he may have waited outside the king's tent all night." ”

The husband didn't know what he had done wrong, and he was worried. As a king, you are most afraid of making mistakes, and one wrong decision may cause great losses to the country. He understands this too well.

"Where is Fan Li now?"

"Waiting outside the tent."

"Set up a knife and gun rack, and Xuan Fan Li will enter the account."

"Yes!"

When the soldier was ordered, he immediately set up swords and guns outside the tent of the Chinese army.

Fan Li saw that the knife and gun carriage was very low, so he could only bend over and drill over like a dog. This kind of formation has only been seen on the stage, and now it is really his turn. If you bend down and drill inside, the knife and gun carriage will be lowered and lowered, and you can only climb into it in the end.

That's a shame. Before the crossing, he was a soldier who was not afraid of death, and he would become a big man, let alone be ashamed, at most he would die!

Fan Li gritted his teeth, held his head high, and walked straight over. Those who were soldiers saw Fan Li walking over with a straight waist, and they were not afraid of hitting their heads with knives and guns. They know that the matter of the knife and gun rack is psychological warfare, and the purpose is to defeat the other party's prestige and momentum, not really to break the opponent's head and bleed. Fan Li's head was about to hit the knife and gun, and the soldier had to raise the knife and gun a little higher, so that Fan Li kept approaching the military tent.

Seeing this scene, the husband secretly admired Fan Li's courage in his heart.

"The criminal minister Fan Li sees the king!"

The husband said: "Fan Li, why did you come to me again when you didn't prepare for war?" ”

Fan Li said: "On the orders of the widow, I came to ask for surrender. ”

The husband said: "This was made clear to the genre last night, and you have to talk nonsense over and over again." Why? There's nothing to talk about, let's go back and tell Gou Jian to prepare for war. ”

Fan Li said: "The reason why the minister came to ask for surrender again and again is because the minister feels that the king's acceptance of surrender is not only beneficial to the Yue State, but also to the Wu State. ”

The husband said, "I'm curious what you can say." You say. ”

Fan Li made a big salute and said, "King, have you forgotten what General Sun Wu said? Sun Wu said: "The matter of fighting with soldiers can only be used temporarily to destroy a strong enemy, and it cannot be solved in this way for a long time. Although the Yue State has offended the Wu State and created hatred, the people who have offended the Wu State have reached the end of their rope and have repeatedly asked for surrender. The whole country of Yue belongs to the king, yours. The countless gold and silver collected by the king of Yue, as well as countless treasures and treasures, were all contributed to the king. Those palace beauties are also the king's. Yue Guo has contributed so much to Wu State, what do you ask for? It is very simple, only ask the king to leave the life of the king of Yue, so that the temple of the Yue Kingdom can be preserved, and the incense continues. Therefore, the economic benefits of the king's acceptance of surrender are very large. Not only that, but the king accepted the surrender, and the reputation of benevolence would spread throughout the world. To dominate the world, one relies on force and the other relies on benevolence, so that the people of the world can be convinced. I think the king will not understand this truth. If the king must start a great war and fight fiercely, without giving the king of Yue any hope, the king of Yue will kill the queen and all the palace maids, burn the palace, destroy all the treasures, or burn them or throw them into the river. There are also 5,000 soldiers under King Yue, and these 5,000 people have survived countless battles, and their combat effectiveness is very strong. It is no exaggeration to say that they had no trouble killing five Wu soldiers by themselves. The more people dare to die, you know the king. After this battle, the king will lose 20,000 troops in vain, and what have you gained, king? The minister risked his life to say these words, and asked the king to think twice. ”

These words shocked King Wu, and he really didn't think about it so much.

Just as the husband was silent, he suddenly heard a roar like thunder outside the tent, and a man rushed in and shouted: "What a Fan Li, you dare to confuse the king with clever words, see me take your life!" ”

The sharp sword stabbed at Fan Li's chest.
