Chapter 851: The Heart of the People

Sima Wen explained: "Even if the water recedes, then at that time, everywhere will be silt, and because of the loess, ordinary people will not be able to walk at all. ”

As he spoke, he added: "Even if the soldiers can barely walk, I'm afraid it will be difficult and abnormal, and the journey is less than ten miles a day, not to mention, how can our army be escorted in the mud because of its heavy grain and grass?" ”

"Then just wait for the heavens!" Zhao Chuan said unconvinced.

"Huh." Sima Wen smiled and said: "Since the Qingwang dares to chisel the Honghu Dam, he must have thought of everything, now it is close to winter, and the green land is warm and humid, not as dry and cold as the winter in my country, even if it is frozen here, it is at most just a thin layer of ice on the surface, the next day the sun shines, the thin ice melts, and it becomes silt, so repeatedly, and there is water flowing down from time to time upstream, and the whole winter, I am afraid it will be like this." ”

He was right, Qingguo's side, it was precisely because of the seasons and geography that he dared to let the Honghu Dam burst, otherwise, the water potential alone would not be able to stop the wind army for long.

Without grain and grass, there is no way to fight, without baggage, there is no way to attack the city, the current situation, these things, can not be transported, once forced south, grain trucks and siege equipment and other baggage, will be mired in the quagmire......

"Hateful!" After hearing this, Lu Chen couldn't help but say something angrily.

After listening to Sima Wen's explanation, all the generals in the tent also shook their heads and sighed, and Su Muzhi said: "From a military point of view, Qingwang's strategy is very successful, and our army can't go around, and if you want to go around, you can only enter Qingdi from Hanyu Pass, so I'm afraid that you can only continue to go south in the coming year." ”

"Hey! Set up the camp outside Yanzhou City, wait for the spring flowers to bloom in the next year, and then go south. Lu Chen also shook his head and sighed helplessly.

At this time, Sima Wen said again: "Weichen thinks that what the king is thinking about now should not be how to enter the army, but should take this opportunity to win the hearts of the people in the world." ”

"Oh?" When Lu Chen heard this, he couldn't help but glance at him.

Sima Wen continued: "After this incident, the Qingwang will be blamed by the people of the world, and the people will also discuss it, and a large number of literati will also criticize and write, and hundreds of miles downstream of Honghu Lake, the people will also be displaced. ”

Without waiting for Lu Chen to speak, Su Muzhi already sneered and said, "Hmph! It's ridiculous! The dam burst was done by King Qing, and those refugees are also the people of Qingguo, what does it have to do with my king!? ”

"If we don't open a warehouse for disaster relief, those people who have lost their homes will starve to death!" Sima Wen looked at Su Mudao.

"So what!? The grain and grass of our army are used for war! Not for good deeds! Those Qingguo Diao people, if they die, they will die! What's the big deal! Su Muzhi sneered.

"You!" Sima Wen was extremely angry, and then he didn't want to argue with him anymore, but faced Lu Chen again, and continued: "King, you have the world in mind, when the world is a few terms, when the Qing King ravages the people with a flood, but the king, you do the opposite, but comfort the people, relief refugees, at that time, the people of the world will sing praises for the king, and the king is more prestigious among the people in the world!" ”

As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Qun also stood up and said: "Weichen agrees with Lord Sima's opinion, as the so-called people win the hearts of the people win the world, those refugees, although they are the people of Qingguo, but they are also my Central Plains nation, and the war between our country and Qingguo is also an internal contradiction within the nation, the king and the Qingwang, who has the heart of the world, who is among the people of the world, is the holy monarch!" ”

"The minister also seconded the proposal, to dominate the world, although force is a vital point, but the people's hearts must not be lost, if the green king loses the hearts of the people, and the king wins the hearts of the people, then in the future war, the green king will only be defeated!" Liu Yuan also stepped forward.

The three advisors all persuaded Lu Chen to open a warehouse for disaster relief in order to win the hearts of the people, Lu Chen pondered for a moment, and immediately made a decision.

But at this time, Su Muzhi was still unwilling to say: "King! ”

"Huh?" Lu Chen waved his hand to interrupt him, and said: "This king has made up his mind, there is no need to say more, when the torrent retreats, if there is a disaster in Yanzhou, immediately open the warehouse and release grain!" ”

As he spoke, he added: "From now on, all the green land north of the Honghu Dam will act in accordance with our country's policy!" I think it is a wind land! Soldiers are not allowed to enter the city at will to disturb the people! Didn't you hear it all! ”

"No!" When he said this, the generals immediately shook their bodies and said in unison.

"I'm Wang Yingmingβ€”" Sima Wen hurriedly bowed his hand and gave a deep salute.

After the discussion, everyone left from the big tent of the Chinese army, and when they walked outside, Su Muzhi said to Sima Wen with some dissatisfaction: "Hmph, every time I join the army, Lord Sima always advises the kindness of the king's wife in front of the king, which is really ridiculous." ”

How can this be a woman's kindness? This is the foundation of the country. Sima Wen retorted.

"You know, it's war!" Su Muzhi said coldly, although he and Sima Wen have a good relationship in private, there is a great difference in military concepts.

"Just because it's war, it's all the more so." Sima Wen followed.

And the concept of the two of them, sometimes, Lu Chen will take Su Muzhi's cold-blooded and ruthless advice, and sometimes, he will take Sima Wen's advice, which is also a king's knowledge.

Lu Chen was an enlightened person, and under the given conditions, he would accurately judge which courtier's opinion was worth adopting at that time.

After deciding to open a warehouse for disaster relief, Lu Chen also immediately sent a letter to the royal court, ordering the officials to immediately dispatch officials to the counties of Yanzhou.

At this time, the grain and grass that Li Gongfu was responsible for escorting also arrived at the Fengjun camp.

Seeing him, Lu Chen was a little surprised, but it was more of a surprise, because Yanzhou is a county, and now it has been occupied by the Wind Army, and he is short of ministers!

There is no doubt that after the handover, Lu Chenna said directly to Li Gongfu: "Now that the head of Yanzhou County, there is no specific candidate for this king, so you can grieve and take this place temporarily, how about it?" ”

"This ......" Li Gongfu hesitated for a moment, then bowed down and said, "Weichen respectfully obeys the king's order." ”

"Is it difficult to implement our policies first, and then to explain the law?" Lu Chen asked again.

Of course, this is difficult! Yanzhou had just been warned, and a number of young officials had already fled in a hurry, the official office system was paralyzed, and there were no soldiers in the city.

Li Gongfu pondered for a while, and said truthfully: "Back to the king, I'm afraid there is a shortage of manpower." ”

"En......" Lu Chen thought for a while, then looked at Su Muzhi, and said directly: "Transfer two thousand troops to him." ”
