Chapter Twenty-Six: Peeling off the cocoon, the night talk

Chen Zichen kept pacing in the big tent. He was considering the seriousness of this matter www.biquge.info this matter is not so easy to solve, not only involving the Ministry of War, but also the localities, and possibly the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Households. He has to think about what extent it will be involved, although Chen Zichen hopes to change the situation in the court, but he is planned and step by step, and the steps are not easy to exaggerate, whether it will cause a counterattack, or a riot, which will make the Qi country even more chaotic, Chen Zichen does not want to do this. Back then, Uncle Sun killed so many people at once, because there was only internal strife and no external troubles, but now it is different, in Chen Zichen's view, it can only be solved step by step.

"Lu Huan, what do you think about this matter?" Chen Zichen frowned, and turned his head to ask Lu Huandao, who was standing on the side.

Lu Huan thought for a moment and said, "My lord, it's useless to think so much now, only tomorrow when I go to see the city lord and figure out the actual situation." ”

Chen Zichen shook his head and said: "You think too simply, this matter has been accumulated for a long time, and it can't be solved in a few words, if we want to completely exterminate the water bandits this time, we must solve this matter, otherwise it will be difficult to move an inch." ”

"But my lord, you can't just take action based on this Han Li's words?" Lu Huan asked puzzled.

Chen Zichen smiled and said, "What Han Li said is nine points true, he must have inquired about me, otherwise he wouldn't have told me everything about this matter." ”

"Oh? Your Excellency is saying that he used you as a lifeline to save him? Lu Huan asked.

"Haha, yes, this Han Li may have been suppressed by this Yu City Lord for too long, and the Yu City Lord has moved the interests of their naval army in Jiangmen, forcing them to have no way to live, so they defected to me, thinking that I can save them." Chen Zichen felt that this Han Li was still a funny person, and his words were too realistic, allowing Chen Zichen to judge the credibility of his words for a long time.

"Oh? According to adults, it seems that things are very simple, but there are many problems involved, and some of them are very complicated. Lu Huan frowned and said, saying that this in-depth analysis of things is really not his strong point, it is better to let him lead the troops to fight, which seems to be more pleasant.

"Okay, don't think about it, it's probably my business again, you just go back and rest, I'll think about it myself." Chen Zichen asked a few guards and Lu Huan to go back to rest, he couldn't sleep again today.

There have long been people in the military department who have shouted that they want to cut off the navy, they think that the navy is useless, and the military expenses of the navy are not only to pay military salaries, but also to maintain ships, which is a large amount of money, the household department has asked the military department to reduce expenditures, the military department can not get enough money in the household department, the infantry is not enough to pay, as soon as they think of the navy to want more, the military department simply began to slowly reduce the expenditure on the navy, in recent years, it has allowed the navy to negotiate with the local government, self-sufficiency, which makes many people in the navy lose confidence. Moreover, the local government was even more unwilling to come up with a large sum of money that even the military department was unwilling to give to 'serve' the navy, and even took back the place assigned by the military department to hoard grain and grass, because the military department said that they should be self-sufficient, so the granary must also be recovered, otherwise it will disobey the order of the military department. It just so happened that Yu Yunzhi, the lord of Jiangmen City, was still the son of the current Ministry of Industry Shangshu, naturally, Han Li wrote his situation to the Ministry of War, and the Ministry of War was able to ignore it, and he didn't want to care about it, because since the founding of the Great Qi State, he had never used the water army to fight, and the people of Qi did not agree with the water army from the bottom of their bones, which was different from the Gao clan and the Wang clan next to the river, their water army was very powerful.

One thing after another flashed through Chen Zichen's mind, and it couldn't be clearer, things might be like this. But Chen Zichen has a doubt, since the granary in the west of the city has been taken back, there will definitely be no grain and grass piled up inside, and there is not so much grain and grass? That water bandit has been in Chushui all the year round, and he should know this matter very well when he is close to Jiangmen? So why did they come to burn a so-called granary that the army of water could not use?

....

The moon and stars are sparse, and the breeze blows.

Yao Sanjiang, who was wet, returned to his own village, his face was a little bad, and he shouldn't say that it was very bad.

"What's the matter, as soon as you come back, you have a straight face, who will you show it? This time it did a good job, burning down their granary in the west of the city. The water bandit boss Du looked at Yao Sanjiang for a long time and praised with a smile.

"Hmph, the burn is burned, who the knows that a young man will be killed halfway, fight with me, and force me to dive away, if I don't go to the water, I'm afraid I will have to explain it in his hands." Yao Sanjiang scolded indignantly.

"Oh? Second, the master has met a master? How so? The guards of the granary in the west of the city are just a few family members from the Jiangmen City Lord's Mansion, how can someone embarrass you? It was Xu Mao, the respected military advisor who seemed to be in the water bandits.

"You don't know, military advisor, that person's martial arts are definitely above me, I see that he is dressed in brocade, but it has been dusty for a long time, I tried to recruit him. But the man didn't say a word and directly provoked me. Fortunately, Lao Yao and I are witty, so I won't let the military advisor and my brother not see me. Yao Sanjiang seemed happy that he was back.

"Oh? What does that man look like? Let's see if there's a way to recruit him, it's time to hire someone. The bandit leader Du asked for a long time.

"Yes, Sanjiang, can you remember?" Military advisor Xu Mao also asked.

"Hey, you two have no conscience, you don't care about Lao Yao's life and death, but you care about whether I remember others, do you wish I was picked to die in this Chu Shui?" Yao Sanshui deliberately joked about Du Bantian and Xu Maodao.

"Okay, Lao Yao, don't interrupt, it's not that we don't know your ability, as long as you enter Chu Shui, you are the king, who can catch you, think about it." Boss Du is worthy of being the boss for half a day, two sentences, one kill and one handful, just right.

"That's, I don't ask Lao Yao what I do, but I really can't remember that person, it was dark at the time, the fire was burning, and the smoke was too big on my side to see clearly, but if I let me fight again, I can recognize it, his marksmanship is too sharp." Yao Sanjiang didn't know how to lift, but said truthfully, and he was still a little afraid of Chen Zichen's marksmanship.

"Alas.... Now that we have torn our faces with the Qi country, and now our stockade is full of only 30,000 troops, I'm afraid we can't stand the Qi army? Du Bantian said sadly.

"Don't worry, the big boss is relieved, Qi attaches great importance to infantry and inhibits the development of the navy, only 10,000 sailors are counted as full, and the survival of the navy is difficult to solve, let alone encircle and suppress us? Don't forget, on top of this Chu Shui, you King Du is not a vegetarian. The military advisor Xu Mao said to Du Bantian with great confidence.

"Strategist, what is the use of saying that our old Yao went to burn the granary in the west of the city today, there is nothing in it." Yao Sanjiang asked puzzled.

"If you want to go, you'll go, aren't you happy?" Du Bantian said slightly.

Yao Sanjiang is this character, it's useless for you to scold him, he said hatefully: "Big brother, in order to burn the granary in the west of the city, I even lost my big knife, you compensate me." ”

"Get out, where you lost it, where can you find it." Saying that, Du left the lobby first after half a day, obviously it was the middle of the night now, and if he didn't sleep, his two beautiful girls were already looking forward to it.

"Brother Junshi, you just sell it well, so that Lao Yao knows whether my big knife is worth it?" Yao Sanjiang grabbed the military advisor Xu Mao, who was about to leave, and asked.

"It's worth it, of course it's worth it, and it's earned, how much your big knife is worth, it's not comparable to the granary in the west of the city." Military advisor Xu Mao squinted and smiled.

"Strategist, you're going to kill me in a hurry, I heard that the navy doesn't have a granary in it?" Yao Sanjiang was a little anxious, he was aroused by the military advisor Xu Mao, and now he wanted to know what he was burning.

"Okay, let's tell you, although there is no granary of the Qi State Naval Army, there is a huge amount of grain and grass hidden by the city lord of Jiangmen City, you think, if we surround Jiangmen, Jiangmen City can use that grain and grass to break the siege, but we burned him, and as soon as we surround Jiangmen, they can surrender obediently." The military advisor Xu Mao whispered proudly. This idea was given to Du Bantian, and Du Bantian also agreed with him.

"Okay, then they won't be saved, and the military advisor deserves to be a military advisor." Yao Sanjiang flattered.

"Okay, it's not early, look at you, you're wet, go back and wash and sleep, your aunt is missing you, don't go back." The military advisor Xu Mao quipped, and left quickly after speaking, and his beautiful girl was also waiting for him.

Yao Sanjiang rushed back with some loss, a hint of satisfaction, and a hint of greed.

There is a way that:

Eat this way by water,

Cross the waterway and follow the customs.

Clippers fire leads to the west of the city,

Who knows how to kill a good general?
