Chapter 123: The People and the Country
A loyal minister is a loyal minister, although he has a big opinion of the king, but when the country is in danger, the loyal minister will still give up personal grievances and take responsibility for the country.
Now Zhou Huan, who is Xiangguo, has long been no longer angry and has begun to think about the future and destiny of the country.
Although the enemy does not play cards according to the rules, Zhou Huan can't ignore it.
Besides, General Beiying is a candidate suggested by Xiangguo himself, and he can't be wrong if he can say that.
Zhou Huan thought for a while and said: "Your Majesty, the matter has come to this, we must first strengthen the defense of the capital, and at the same time send envoys to the royal family to explain this matter to the royal family, so that the royal family can prepare in advance." If it's just a small group of Rong Di who comes to attack, the scattered country can deal with it. If the Rongdi army comes to attack, we will need reinforcements from the royal family. ”
Zhou Huan is an old minister in the end, and he is also a person who has experienced many wars, and the strategy in his chest is a set of strategies, and it is also a method and strategy that is in line with the reality of the scattered country.
After hearing this, Sanpanzi immediately said: "Lord Xiangguo is right, the widow thinks that Rong Di must have come to inquire about the news when he went south at this time. Later, Rong Di's brigade of soldiers and horses will definitely come to invade the scattered country, and we should be ready for a big battle. ”
After dealing with Rong Di for so many years, Sanpan has long been frightened by Rong Di, as long as it is news about Rong Di, he would rather believe that the enemy is powerful than underestimate the enemy.
Since ancient times, underestimating the enemy has been a taboo in war; But to pay too much attention to the enemy is to be cowardly.
Subsequently, Sanpanzi said to Xiangguo Zhou Huan: "The widow worships Lord Xiangguo and is fully responsible for this matter, and asks Xiangguo to do everything in his power to repel Rong Di and defend his homeland." ”
Quarrels are quarrels, and there is a reason why the scattered plate did not kill Zhou Huan. Because whenever the country is in danger, it is necessary to test a capable minister like Zhou Huan to share the worries of the country.
Although the loose plate is greedy for pleasure, he will never kill the pillar of the country just because the minister scolds him for pleasure.
How important it is to keep a clear head at critical moments!
Especially when the country was in danger, Sanpanzi still believed that only Xiangguo Zhou Huan could defeat Rong Di.
"The minister commands." Then Zhou Huan said to General Beiying: "General Beiying, you will return to Beiying, set up troops and horses in the area of Jiankuoling, and strictly prevent Rong Di from crossing the Jiankuoling Mountains and heading south." ”
"General Nuo ---, the last command." General Beiying replied.
Then the general of Beiying asked: "Lord Xiangguo, at the moment, the people north of my Jiankuoling have fled south, should we stop them from moving south?" ”
"The people are the foundation of the kingdom, and if they are willing to move south, let them come. At the same time, post stations were set up along the road to provide food for the people. ”
"No---。" With that, General Beiying walked out of the palace.
Zhou Huan said to the scattered plates: "Your Majesty, the country is in an eventful season, and the ministers should go to the camps in person to arrange the war; Please also ask your lord to work hard to govern the country, and not waste political affairs! ”
"Okay, well, the widow knows." Sanpanzi agreed, and then Sanpanzi said to Zhou Huan: "There is one more thing that Xiangguo should know." ”
"Your Excellency, please speak."
"Just now, I heard from General Beiying that in the recent period, Yaguo's soldiers and horses have appeared in the Longchuan area from time to time, what do you think Xiangguo should do?"
Zhou Huan listened and said, "Your Majesty, where we don't want it, there are still a lot of countries to worry about!" ”
"Hmph---, what's the use of Yaguo worrying, as soon as Rong Di comes, the widow doesn't believe that he Yaguo can hold it?" Sanpanzi said disapprerovingly.
Since the monarch doesn't take Longchuan seriously, what else can Zhou Huan, as the prime minister, do? I had to sigh and leave.
Dusk comes, the sunset sprinkles the afterglow on the top of Qinling Mountain, and from a distance, the whole mountain seems to be covered with a golden top.
Outside the capital of Sanguo, the people who went out walked towards the city one after another.
"Bell Bell ---"
"Bell Bell ---"
After a nervous gong sounded, the soldiers defending the city shouted loudly: "Come back to the city, Rong Di is coming from the north." ”
Drumming marched, and Mingjin collected the troops.
This is a tradition that has been around since ancient times.
Hearing the shouts of the soldiers, the people who were originally slow and leisurely couldn't help but speed up their pace and run quickly towards the city.
"Close the city gate--- After the people basically returned to the city, the scattered city guards immediately ordered the city gate to be closed.
Horses' hooves rattle and dust flying.
Not long after the gate of Sanguo was closed, a sky of smoke and dust appeared in the northwest direction, and Rong Di came.
It can't be fake, it can't be fake.
Years of experience have told the monarchs and ministers of the scattered kingdom that this time it is really Rong Di who is here.
"Look, my lord, the army of Rong Di is coming." The defenders of the city pointed to the horse team in the distance and said to the general.
Following the direction pointed by the soldiers, General Sancheng saw that on the mountains in the distance, the dust was flying, and the Rongdi horse team was galloping; Nearby, many people were running towards the city.
"General, open the city gate quickly, we are the people of Jiankuoling, open the city gate quickly!" The people shouted as they ran.
"What about adults?" Seeing that the people flocked to the city gate, the soldiers defending the city asked the general.
What should I do?
The general who defended the city had no idea at the moment, he knew that once the city gate was opened, before all the people entered the city, Rong Di's cavalry would quickly enter the city.
If the Rongdi army enters the city, the scattered kingdom will be finished.
"My lord, Rong Di is here, open the door quickly!" The people who came to the city cried and cried for their fathers and mothers.
"My lord, here are our people, open the gates and let them in!" The soldiers defending the city said to the general.
"With so many people entering the city, I don't dare to make decisions without permission, don't open the door until you wait, let me report to the king." The general said to his subordinates.
With that, General Sancheng hurriedly ran into the city.
Scattered King's Palace.
As soon as he finished dealing with the matter at hand, before he could return to the dormitory, he was startled by the sound of the report outside the palace.
"Report to ---, king, Rong Di has called." General Sancheng shouted as he ran for a hundred years.
That's a fast speed, huh?
Sanpanzi was so shocked that his mouth grew up, "Didn't you say in the morning that the Rong Di army was still north of Jiankuoling?" Before it gets dark, why did the enemy come to the capital? ”
"Your Majesty, Rong Di is a cavalryman, extremely fast, and now he has hit the plateau north of the capital."
"Now that the enemy is here, hurry up and meet the enemy! What are you still doing here? When he heard this, he immediately responded.
"Your Majesty, the city has been full of people from scattered countries, asking to open the city gate and let them in. General Sancheng replied.
Yes? When has it been, and there is such a thing happening.
"Adding to the chaos, it is simply adding chaos, the enemy has hit the city, and they should ask to open the city gate and let them in, it is simply unreasonable. The widow ordered all the soldiers to be ready for battle, and never allowed anyone to enter the city. Loose plate said angrily.
Whoever is loose is also an assertive person. Let you go into the city, do you want the widow's country?
Which is more important, the country or the people, the heart of the scattered plate is very clear.
There are thousands of people, and if there is less, there will be more; There is only one country, and if it is gone, it will be completely gone. Take a hundred plating and read the latest chapter of "Pre-Qin's Starry Sky Claw Book House" for free for the first time.
