Chapter 319: The Tactics of Cutting Chu
Hearing this, the man was okay to say, his face was as usual, but he also swept his eyes to Burry: the wealth of Wu was in his sleeve, and he was carrying the money and grain of Wu State, to be exact, the family background of Wu State's treasury was in his mind!
Nabury's face was ugly, and after thinking for a while, he smiled bitterly: "Our current family foundation is at most enough for the expenses of the imperial court, if we want to attack other countries, assuming that we use 20,000 troops, we can support it for two months at most! Alas, if we fight with the Chu army, it will definitely take more than half a year, and if we use 30,000 soldiers, we can't afford it! Even if we dig Gusu City three feet into the ground, it will last for a month at most!"
Mengjing snorted coldly and smiled contemptuously: "So, how can this war be easily started? On the surface, it seems that the battle is fought on the merits and morale of the army, the strategy and strategy of the generals, and, of course, the determination and will of the king! But in the final analysis, it is still necessary to fight with money, and if there is no money and no food, what can be fought? If a soldier is hungry to fight, isn't that a mental illness? No matter how good a soldier is, if he has nothing to eat, it will still be over!"
She had already unceremoniously lectured her husband and Bury, and at this time, the two of them had already drooped their heads, and their faces were incredulous: how could she know so many things? It seems that she knows the situation of Wu Guo better than the prime minister, why?
"Well, Mrs. Sun is right, then, we will do it according to General Sun's plan! We have set up a household department, a military department, a ritual department, a officials department, a criminal department, and a work department, and we will employ people according to regulations and gradually implement them, and how to use talents is the key to enriching the country and strengthening the army! I see that Mrs. Sun will be in charge of this household department, and you can be regarded as the first female official of our Wu State! This Ministry of Rites and Officials is personally in charge of the Ministry of Rites and Officials, and the Prime Minister Wu Zixu is in charge of it, and the Criminal Department, you are in charge of the Ministry of Works, and you are in charge of the Ministry of Works. He Lu finally agreed to their overall plan, and even the personnel arrangements were completely according to the candidates they proposed.
Nabury was unhappy, and was depressed for a moment, before he asked unwillingly, "So, what should I do, my lord?"
"Ah, you? Well, well, you don't need to take care of the six departments, you just take care of the widow's diet and daily life, as well as the distribution of officials' salaries, this is a big matter, and you have to cooperate with Mrs. Sun, the head of the household department, to deal with it!"
Bury was happy at this time, his face was happy, and when he was about to speak, Mengjing had already smiled: "Lord Bury, this person, you can love money, but you can't be greedy, Your Excellency is full of flesh at a glance, and you are so brave and ruthless, so we have a rule here, if you are greedy for money, we will punish you according to the law, understand?"
At this moment, not only the ministers were startled, Burry's face was pale, and even Lu Lu was shocked: Could it be that this Mrs. Sun has the skill of observing people? Could it be that she is really a strange person?
Thinking of this, he was immediately happy and smiled: "Haha, Mrs. Sun is right, then, just do what Mrs. Sun wants! Ladies and gentlemen, just act according to the rules! Okay, that's all for today's court meeting, and the widow will hold a banquet in a while to reward General Sun and Mrs. Sun! Ladies and gentlemen will accompany him!" After speaking, he smiled proudly.
Fu Ji was a little unhappy, and sneered: "In this way, Mrs. Sun is almost half a prime minister, but, how can you be the prime minister of our Wu country?"
"Haha, listen to the general's meaning, you are not convinced! Very good, Mrs. Ben's virtue and ability, at least, you are far from waiting! The king can rest assured, our Wu Kingdom will be rich and strong within three years, and then, send troops to attack Chu!"
Sure enough, when the husband heard this, he became angry: "Okay, even if you can bear it, then, what if you can't make me rich and strong in Wu Guo within three years?" After speaking, his eyes were already fixed on Mengjing's head.
"Haha, do you want my head? Hehe, don't worry, king, if Wu Guo is not rich in three years, I will automatically send the head, but if we make Wu Guo rich and powerful in these three years, we will be paid!" Dream Mirror smiled proudly, as if he had seen a room full of gold.
When he heard this, he was not happy: "It turns out that Mrs. is still a greedy person, but how much are you going to want?"
"Hehe, king, according to the rules of our hometown, we will divide twenty-eight shares, and we will earn twenty percent of the commission! That is to say, if we enrich the wealth of Wu to 10 million gold, we will have to collect 2 million gold!" Mengjing already had a sweet face, but his eyes were firmly fixed on King Wu.
When he heard this, he was a little unhappy, but after thinking about it, didn't this come out of the sheep? Therefore, he laughed out loud and was happy: "Okay, just do what Madame wants! It's just that General Sun and Madame's money is in your two million gold, so we won't give you money!"
"Cheng, little meaning, hehe, our General Han and Mrs. Han's expenses are also covered by us, haha, the king is the king, good bearing, refreshing, deal!" After speaking, Mengjing smiled proudly.
When he heard this, he frowned unconsciously: "In this way, in three years, the wealth of my Wu Kingdom should have eight million gold?"
"Of course, it's only a lot, if we are Taiping, Han'er, Ling'er, and other countries such as Qi, Jin, and Yan, the wealth of our Wu Kingdom will continue to come, haha!
Sure enough, both the ministers and the ministers all showed their greed: It seems that the road to prosperity and strength of the Wu State is hopeful! And they will all be high-ranking officials!
It's just that the two out of ten that Mengjing wants made them all show their beast-like eyes, and they all seem to want a piece of the pie, and their faces are full of envy and jealousy!
When Sun Wu saw it, he sneered unconsciously, but immediately changed his words: "I don't know if General Fu has the courage to start a war with the Chu State?" He immediately changed the topic back: It's going to be a war, and it's a war with the Chu State!
"Da Sima, didn't you say that you won't attack Chu? Why, you're going to go to war with Chu again? Didn't you say that you don't have any money?
Sun Wu smiled: "Haha, this soldier is impermanent, and the water is impermanent! We just said that we would not attack Chu, but we didn't say that we would not fight with Chu? Haha, hasn't Chu State been moving frequently recently? Of course we have to have fun, otherwise, hehe, wouldn't it be a shame for people to underestimate my Wu State! King, I heard that Cai State, Song State, and Cao State want us to send troops, if we don't send troops, won't we let the people of the world say that we are afraid of Chu State?"
When he heard this, he stayed for a while before he smiled: "It turns out that the general has already had a good plan, then, how should we destroy Chu? and how can we save the three kingdoms?"
"Haha, my lord, it depends on the courage of our general! General general, aren't you the number one warrior of my Wu Kingdom?
When the man heard this, he immediately raised his eyebrows and shouted: "How can this general be afraid of the Chu army?
"No, I'll give you three thousand at most, and besides, you have to hurt Chu Guo! Otherwise, let's change people, Prince Fucha, are you willing to fight?" Sun Wu was agitated again.
When the husband heard this, his face suddenly turned embarrassed, and he didn't even speak!
Seeing this, Nafucha sneered: "I can't imagine that my uncle is so cowardly as a mouse, so, Fucha is willing to fight in the Chu State, but I don't know if Da Sima can give 5,000 soldiers?"
"No, it's only three thousand, haha, no more than one person is enough! If Prince Fucha doesn't dare to send troops, then we will only have the church General Han! But, in that case, where will the faces of the generals of the Wu Kingdom go?" Sun Wu was agitated again.
Finally, Enbo's face couldn't hold back, and he sighed: "It's better for me Enbo to go to war, I'm willing to lead 3,000 troops to attack Chu State!"
"Oh, General Enbo, our Wu State is currently short of grain and grass, this great Sima has no grain and grass to help you, you have only one way to get grain and grass: go to Chu State to get it! Hehe, there, it is our best granary at present, hehe, the general can attack the border pass, not to defeat the enemy, only cut off the grain road, in this way, the Chu army will be exhausted, haha, we will sit and collect it!" Sun Wu smiled proudly.
Wu Zixu then understood, and laughed: "Okay, haha, good! Da Sima is really a good plan, in this way, let the State of Chu raise troops for my State of Wu! Haha, from today on, let's go to get the grain and grass of the State of Chu, hehe, not only can we not receive General Enbai, General Enbo also has to bear the supply of 30,000 grain and grass for our army, haha!"
When He Lu heard this, he immediately understood, and Da Le: "Okay, good, good! We will use the grain and grass of Chu to raise troops for us, haha, Da Sima is really a big material, haha, great!"
The courtiers were dumbfounded, not knowing what they were talking about.
Naember was the first to understand and smiled: "In this way, I want to bring 3,000 cavalry, we only attack and not defend, only take grain and grass?"
"Yes, that's it! As for our border city, haha, this great Sima personally defends the city! In addition, we should also get rid of Qingji! General Enbo, remember, don't be greedy for war, let's only take grain and grass, don't fight, kill the enemy, whatever! Every time you take grain and grass, it is a great achievement! Haha!" Sun Wu became happier the more he said.
At this time, Fu Yi and the others also understood, but they regretted it too late, their faces were annoyed, and their eyes were full of jealousy: this time, Sun Wu was a colleague for a while, and asked him first, but he was not brave enough!
The husband was very happy and smiled: "If I knew this was the case, I should have been resolute! General Ember, I am jealous of you this time, why don't I be your lieutenant general?"
"Okay, refreshed!Haha, the prince is the deputy general, and General Enbo must not refuse, but your strength is still three thousand!" Sun Wu smiled happily.
He Lu also admired his husband this time, and smiled: "I didn't expect our prince to have such a mind, very good, then, you two go and choose soldiers! Haha, I only then understand why General Sun Wu only needs you to bring 3,000 soldiers, because we only have 3,000 war horses! Refreshing, this time, we have victory and undefeated!"
"Okay, that's the end of our battle against Chu at the moment, two generals, remember, don't kill more, try to kill as little as possible, we can only seize grain and grass! They also deliberately indulge the Chu State, so they don't look down on us anymore! Haha, that's good!" Sun Wu smiled proudly.
Wu Zixu sighed and smiled: "Changqing is really full of wisdom, we thought that in the past three years, we would indulge the Chu army to conquer wantonly, but I didn't expect that when it comes, we can still share the soup of Chu at will, this time, I appreciate the generosity of the Chu army a little! It turns out that they gave us the opportunity to attack them at will!"
"Hehe, this is the so-called impermanence of soldiers, haha, so, if we want to conquer the Chu State, we must not stick to the normal state! Be flexible and mobile, this is the best choice!" Mengjing smiled sweetly.
