Chapter 285: One Will Succeed and Ten Thousand Bones Will Wither
Qin Cheng's profession in this life is a general at best, and a national weapon in layman's terms, so naturally he has to run wherever there is a war. Although Qin Cheng's own ambitions are not limited to this, those impulses in his heart can only be regarded as extravagant hopes at best. Although Liu Che was willing to let him go to a level related to governing the country, it was obvious that Qin Cheng couldn't touch that level too much now.
In the Han Dynasty, there were those who were transferred to prime ministers, such as Tian Wei, although this guy did not end up in a good end; There are also those who have been promoted to lieutenants as generals, such as Zhou Yafu, although this guy did not end up well. But in the end, this path has been proven to work, at least there is a possibility.
But now the situation in the Han Dynasty is a little delicate, Liu Che reuses his cronies, and even in fact, there is a tendency to form an inner dynasty, so the Taiwei and the prime minister of the outer dynasty are naturally not so important. And Qin Cheng now doesn't know if he belongs to Liu Che's inner dynasty, or quasi-part of the inner dynasty, so he seems a little embarrassed, but what Qin Cheng clearly knows is that although Wei Qing is also a general, he is a real member of the inner dynasty, a core member.
Putting these aside, based on Qin Cheng's understanding of the Han Dynasty over the years, Liu Che's territorial expansion in the south has achieved considerable results, including the southeast and southwest. The legendary "Yelang arrogant" refers to Yelang was also successfully found by Tang Meng last year, and Qianjun was established there.
In other words, the south is a hotbed of war, and the main body of this hotbed is Minyue. To the east is the sea, regardless of that. The northeast is mainly Wei's Korea, and Wei's Korea and the Han Dynasty are inseparable, and as far as Qin Cheng knows, he was unable to avoid fighting with the Han Dynasty later. As for the north and the west, it was the sphere of influence of the Xiongnu. In a word, there were not many wars in the Han Dynasty of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty - a monarch with great talent is the *** of countless wars. With the memory of Qincheng in the 21st century, there is no exception for the Qin Emperor Han Wu and the Tang Dynasty and Song Ancestors in history.
The growth of a generation of famous generals also needs to be shaped by countless wars. Without the cruelty of ten thousand bones, where can there be the glory of success?
......
Qin Cheng looked up at Liu Che's face, and first humbled himself: "It's a big matter, and the minister doesn't dare to discuss it, but the minister resolutely implements His Majesty's decision." ”
Liu Che shook his robe, "Don't dare to discuss, it's not that you can't discuss, but you say it's okay." ”
Qin Cheng arched his hand, and then said: "Minyue is a barbarian land, the people are wise and unopened, simple in nature, scheming, easy to be bewitched by some people with bad intentions, since the king of Minyue is subordinate to the Han Dynasty but does not know how to be a minister, he is good at causing trouble, and he should be educated." ”
Liu Che nodded, "You are right, the people in the land of Minyue are still simple, but the people of Minyue are too wild, I have taught them a few times and I don't know how to restrain them, I don't know that what they have to spend to provoke trouble is my money and food, and it is my people who suffer because of this!" Your words are exactly what I want, and in your opinion, who should I send this time? ”
"The court is a big event, how dare the ministers talk nonsense?" Qin Cheng said in a proper manner, but what he thought in his heart was that it seemed that Liu Che was waiting for him to take the initiative to ask for help, or not, although the errand was harder, but if it was done well, he could accumulate a lot of political qualifications, so he said: "However, although the minister is weak and dull, he is willing to saddle the horse and share a worry for His Majesty." ”
Liu Che smiled, his eyes showed appreciation, and said, "You are a clever person, I can understand your intentions." But this matter is not in a hurry for the time being, although the king of Minyue has done some things this time, but the action is not obvious in the end, I will observe for a while, it is really time to use troops, I will not forget you! ”
"It is the glory of the ministers to share the worries of your majesty." Qin Cheng leaned over and said.
"Okay, I can see that your injuries are not very well, you should be tired after sitting for a long time, I won't leave you to eat, you go back to recuperate first, and other things will be said when the injury is healed." Liu Che said.
"Your Majesty, the minister retires." Qin Cheng bowed, the wound on his back was faintly painful, and there were still more activities today.
Because Qin Cheng was injured and couldn't walk fast, Liu Che understood him and arranged for the people in the palace to carry him out, looking at the scenery around Weiyang Palace in the air, Qin Cheng felt a lot of emotions in his heart for a while. At present, it seems that his future is quite clear, as long as there is no big mess, Liu Che should not let himself be buried, people with no background and no power are already extremely hard in this world, if they can't meet their bosom friends and nobles to help, there is no hope in this life. Fortunately, Qincheng has had good luck since he crossed over, first met Li Guang, and then met a talented monarch like Liu Che, so the road of life is brighter. In any case, this is a good time for people like Qin Cheng.
......
When Qin Cheng returned to the Qin Mansion, Bai Xinxin informed him: "General, General Liu is here and is waiting in the hall. ”
"Willow?" Qin Cheng hesitated for a moment, and then understood that when the news of his injury reached the hussar camp, the soldiers above and below must be very worried, and it was normal for Liu Mu, as a deputy general, to come and see him on behalf of the soldiers.
"General, badly wounded?" Liu Mu was stunned when he saw Qin Cheng being carried back, probably because he didn't expect Qin Cheng's injuries to be so serious, so he hurriedly stood up and greeted him.
Qin Cheng waved his hand and sat down opposite the willow wood, "How are the barracks for the past two days?" ”
"When the general encountered an accident, all the generals were very worried, and today General Li returned to the camp to inform me that the general had returned home, and the generals recommended me to take a look." Liu Mu Dao, even when he visited Qincheng in private, he did not forget to wear armor, and the armor did not leave his body all year round, as if he did not have regular clothes. Qin Cheng was accustomed to this, and if he thought about it, he seemed to have only seen Liu Mu wear his usual clothes once for more than two or three years, or on Chinese New Year's Eve.
After a lot of gossip, Liu Mu suddenly said: "I know a very prestigious Langzhong in Chang'an, can he treat the wound without leaving a scar, do you want to introduce it to the general?" ”
These words made Qin Cheng a little surprised, "Which of the generals who fought on the battlefield did not have a scar, and this thing is also a testimony left on his body, wouldn't it be a pity to eliminate it?" I'm not a woman, so why bother with these things...... Besides, the scar is not on the face. ”
Liu Mu made a big face, suddenly a little unnatural, glanced at Qin Cheng with annoyance, and said lightly: "Don't do it, don't do it, why do you want to pull it on a woman?" ”
The two talked a lot about the affairs of the military camp, mainly because Qin Cheng couldn't go to the military camp for a short time, and Liu Mu had to take care of many matters in the army, but Liu Mu was a deputy general all the year round, and he was familiar with these things.
After Liu Mu left, the Nangong merchants who had passed in the afternoon went and returned, and Qin Cheng had long expected that the Nangong Chamber of Commerce would come again, so he welcomed him to the study to talk.
Nangong Shang saw that Qin Cheng was half-sitting and half-lying for a long time, with tea bowls on the square table, and a small stove with boiling water next to him, and he was slightly surprised, "You know I'm still coming?" ”
"Aren't you here? Have a seat. Qin Cheng said lightly, "Don't hide anything and say it quickly, I still have to sleep after I finish speaking, but I have been running all day today, and my wound still hurts." Having said that, Qin Cheng still got up and picked up the kettle and began to make tea.
Nangong Shang was silent for a long time, and said seriously: "I don't think I'm suitable to be an official, well, that is, to be an official." ”
"Do you want someone below to take your place, retreat into the background or simply return home?" Qin Cheng asked.
"Well, I think I'm still suitable to be a small businessman, and I can't do those intrigues in the court." Nangong Shang said very sincerely.
"Are you dissatisfied with Zhang Qian? Let's get it straight! ”
Nangong Shang laughed at himself, "I'm a small person from a border county, why am I dissatisfied with the people around Your Majesty?" ”
"I'm really not satisfied with that." Qin Cheng blew the weak tea in the tea bowl, the heat wave made him give up the plan to take a sip immediately, he looked up at Nangong Shang and said seriously: "What you just said is the real reason why you are dissatisfied, right?" Zhang Qian is a person close to His Majesty, not a member of the army, and he has never done this work before, you are afraid that he doesn't understand anything but likes to point fingers. If that's the case, under the pressure of His Majesty, you naturally can't compete with him, but if you don't, you're afraid of doing something bad. The most important thing is that the lives of the intelligence team are in your hands, and you are a little afraid. ”
"Sort of." Nangong Shang didn't deny it, but after taking a sip of tea, he found that there was no taste, sighed, and put the tea bowl aside, "Dr. Zhang has been away from the country for ten years, and it can be seen that he wants to make meritorious contributions very urgently, but as you just said, Dr. Zhang doesn't know anything about the intelligence team, and the intelligence team simply allows the slightest mistake." You must know that there is a princess on the grassland, Ixher, who is staring at the intelligence team, and if you are not careful, you may repeat the mistakes of the past. ”
"So you want to escape?" Qin Cheng asked very seriously, and he didn't have any other feelings except for seriousness.
"I don't want to leave behind, and I can't persuade His Majesty to remove the Chamber of Commerce and the Intelligence Team, what can I do?" Nangong Shang said angrily.
"Well, I'll think of a way for you." Qin Cheng frowned and thought about it, at this time, saying that leaving the entire Chamber of Commerce and the intelligence team would only make them die faster, and it was absolutely irresponsible, and it was nonsense, which could not effectively improve the current situation at all. But it was inconvenient for Qin Cheng to say anything to Liu Che directly, because the Chamber of Commerce and the intelligence team were taken out by Liu Che from his hands, and if he took care of these things at this time, wouldn't he be looking for death?
Qin Cheng said: "There is only one way to solve this matter, and of course escaping is not the way." Only by putting you in an equal position with Zhang Qian, or that you are directly responsible to Your Majesty...... Or directly to the lieutenant of the Northern Army......"
