Chapter 21: The General Trend of the World (2)
"The Jin Zhao clan doesn't pay attention to the princes within the Central Plains attacking each other?" Lin Yuyan asked, after all, in such a troubled world now, with a strong force in his hands, it is unimaginable that he does not want to annex a small country.
Doctor Luo also knew what Lin Yuyan was thinking, and said: "Maybe it's not that it doesn't seem to be like paying attention, but it's really powerless to pay attention, where the Jin Zhao clan is located, facing the Guirong, Lin Hu, Guifang, Lou Fu and other tribes in the north of the Central Plains, these alien tribes are on the horse for the soldiers, and the people are off the horses, although the Jin Zhao clan is extremely strong, but it is still a little stretched to deal with these alien tribes...... Therefore, the main army of the Jin Zhao clan was in the north of the Jin Zhao clan's fiefdom, and there was a Zhongshan country that took advantage of the very few soldiers and horses in the south of the Jin Zhao clan to send troops to invade and occupy it, but the result was that the Jin Zhao clan opened a gap along the way to the Zhongshan country in the north, and deliberately led the foreign tribes to invade the Zhongshan country, and the Zhongshan country was thus in a slump and was eventually annexed by many countries, while the Jin Zhao clan stood in the north of the Central Plains, which shows the strength of its army. ”
Hearing this, Lin Yuyan nodded, if this Jin Kingdom was not divided into three Jin, which one in the Central Plains could resist?
Thinking of this, Lin Yuyan asked, "What about Wuguo?" What is the status among the nations? ”
In this regard, Luo Shicheng also said bluntly: "It seems that Qi, Chu, and Jin were powerful countries at that time, even if they had their own incidents, but the wind of a great country still exists, followed by Yan, Lu, Song, Wei, Zheng, Lu, Wu, Yue, Ba, Shu and other countries, these countries are either because of their large population, or because of their strong army, they all belong to the second-rate countries in the world. ”
"Is that all there is to it?" Lin Yuyan couldn't imagine that the huge martial kingdom did not belong to the ranking of the second-rate vassal states at that time.
Luo Shicheng nodded: "Although it is difficult to speak, but the situation of the martial arts country is indeed like this......"
Lin Yuyan carefully weighed, for the poverty of the national strength of the martial country in the past few days, such as Gu Liangqiu, a famous Confucian in the martial country, will not be able to meet the treatment of carriages or even ox carts, like the capital of the martial country Wancheng, the outer city wall will actually be in disrepair and look dilapidated, how can there be such a scene in today's powerful country?
"Does Dr. Luo have a good strategy to strengthen the country?" Lin Yuyan also asked, after all, it seems that he knows little about today's world, it is difficult to know how to enrich the country and strengthen the army, even if he seems to have a clue in his heart, but now Lin Yuyan lives in the palace, and he has just left the cabinet, and he knows little about the outside world, so it will be counterproductive to act rashly.
"Your Highness, do you know the allusion that the Jin Wei clan won Wu Qifang and won the head of the three Jins?" Dr. Luo asked.
Lin Yuyan shook her head with a slightly embarrassed face: "Uh...... Ignorance. ”
Luo Shicheng replied with a smile: "The way of Confucian etiquette or the study of historians has been studied in the palace for a long time, I am afraid that some things are still unclear. ”
Listening to this excuse for Dr. Luo to excuse himself, Lin Yuyan also smiled and motioned to Dr. Luo to introduce this allusion.
Doctor Luo continued: "This Wu Qi is a patriot? First, I studied Confucianism. After the change, abandon Confucianism and join the army, this person started from the Lu country, for the Lu country will defeat the then powerful Qi country, and then the Lu country is not allowed, into the Jin Wei clan, the Jin Wei clan has appointed this person as the general minister, the Jin Wei clan has become a strong country in the three Jin Dynasty in one fell swoop, the Jin Wei clan also relied on their own strength, 50,000 Wei soldiers defeated 500,000 old Qin troops in Hexi, and the old Qin country was destroyed! The Jin Wei clan is strong because of Wu Qi, even if the current Central Plains countries, those who can compete with the Wei warriors of the Jin Wei clan are afraid that it will be difficult to ......."
[50,000 breaks 500,000...... Wu Qi! 】
looked at Lin Yuyan with a look of surprise, and asked by the way: "Does Your Highness know who founded the Wei warriors of the Jin Wei clan and the warriors of the Wu Kingdom?" ”
Lin Yuyan replied hesitantly: "Could it be this Wu Qi?" ”
Doctor Luo nodded and said: "Exactly, the warriors of the Wu Kingdom were sent by the Jin Wei clan to support the training of the Wu Kingdom, but the conditions for training the warriors are really harsh, and the huge Wu Kingdom is also worth tens of thousands, compared to the Wei warriors of the Jin Wei clan, the warriors of my Wu Kingdom are still a little worse, the most important reason is that the national strength of the Wu Kingdom is really not as strong as the Jin Wei Clan, I am afraid that the most important thing is that the Wu Kingdom does not have such a world-class talent as Wu Qi......"
Hearing this, Lin Yuyan couldn't help but admire: "This Wu Qi is really a peerless national warrior......
Doctor Luo also nodded at this: "There are very few people in the world who can take the military family to the extreme like Wu Qi. ”
"If my Martial Kingdom can have such a peerless warrior, it will really not be like the current situation of external worries and internal difficulties!" Lin Yuyan also sighed.
Doctor Luo also regretted: "It's a pity, Rao is such a peerless countryman, and it is difficult to support the building of the general, this person's virtuous ability in the Jin Wei clan is also difficult to be tolerated, Wu Qi later defected to the Chu State, and set off a period of change in the Chu State to enrich the country and strengthen the army, and the national fortune of the Chu State also had a period of prosperity, but Wu Qi's reform of the law involved too many interests of the old nobles of the Chu State, so after the death of the modern King of Chu who supported Wu Qi, this peerless national warrior was executed by the old nobles of the Chu State, As a result, the state of Chu fell into the crisis of the old nobles grasping the power of all parts of the state of Chu. ”
Immediately, Luo Shicheng changed his words and said to Lin Yuyan: "Although Wu Qi is dead, but the demon characters in the world, I don't know how many, if Wu Guo can dive down and recruit talents, it may not be impossible to find a person like Wu Qi like the Jin Wei clan back then." ”
Lin Yuyan looked at Luo Shicheng and said, "I'm afraid that Dr. Luo's words mean something......
Luo Shicheng also nodded, looked at Lin Yuyan and said, "Your Highness, Luo also knows a talented countryman!" ”
"Is that the Han Kui that Dr. Luo recommended earlier?" Lin Yuyan said.
Sure enough, Luo Shicheng nodded.
Lin Yuyan showed embarrassment and said: "I really don't hide it from Dr. Luo, today's court discussion is talking about the selection of Mrs. Luo recommended by Dr. Luo, it is this Han Kui, but because this Han Kui is a small official of the Jin Wei clan, the courtiers think that it is really difficult to be qualified for the position of the criminal doctor......
Luo Shicheng also seemed to have expected this, and said: "Then Wu Qi was promoted to the Wei clan by Lu back then, and he was just a dead man!" Your Majesty uses it or not, the holy judgment is arbitrary, but Luo also wants to tell the truth, compared with his junior brother Han Kui, Luo is like a towering ancient tree compared to the end of autumn! ”
"Doctor Luo really admires Han Kui...... Lin Yuyan said.
Doctor Luo nodded and continued: "If the Wu State does not use this person, it is really unintentional that the Chu State will cut off one of its arms and execute Wu Qi back then, and even win, after all, Wu Qi of the Chu State did not defect to other countries......
When Lin Yuyan heard this, he also thought deeply, after all, as far as he knew, this Luo Shicheng Luo Dafu was also a rare person in the Wuguo court, and it seemed that such a wise man was a highly respected candidate, even if it was a small official, it should also have something extraordinary.
Thinking of this, Lin Yuyan also said: "If Han Kui comes to defect to Wuguo, I will definitely help him......"
Luo Shicheng smiled at this, I am afraid that most of the meaning is that he does not believe in the strength of this Gongziyan at this time: "I'm afraid it's not enough...... Like a national soldier like Senior Brother Han Kui, if Wu Guo can't treat him as a national soldier, he will definitely not sincerely serve Wu Guo, and it still depends on whether His Majesty reuses this person......"
"I understand...... Lin Yuyan nodded, and then looked at Luo Shicheng and saluted very respectfully: "Thank you, Mr. for solving Yan's doubts today, Yan is grateful!" ”
Doctor Luo got up and hugged Lin Yuyan and said, "Your Highness, you don't have to be so polite!" ”
Lin Yuyan got up and said to Luo Shicheng: "Mr. returns to his hometown, but Yan still wants Mr. to remember that no matter when Mr. returns to his hometown, the door of the court of Wuguo is always open for Mr." ”
Hearing this, Luo Shicheng was deeply touched, although the Gongziyan in front of him had made a lot of changes in Luofu during this time, it was undeniable that this Gongziyan's attitude of admitting mistakes and his speech and demeanor made Luo Shicheng quite good.
"Your Royal Highness, this farewell, I'm afraid I'll see you again in a few years, and I hope that Your Highness can become the pillar of the martial kingdom like the third prince, the fourth prince, and the fifth prince!" Luo Shicheng also put forward his own hopes.
In this regard, Lin Yuyan nodded, it was good to be a prince who was waiting for death, but he didn't expect to understand the martial arts during this time, and he had realized that the current martial arts were surrounded by enemies, and he was already walking on the edge of the cliff, and the slightest inappropriate move would make the huge martial arts country become an extremely bleak stroke in the history books like the old Yongguo from this troubled world.
Under the nest, how can there be no eggs, and when the time comes, I am afraid that he, the prince of the royal family of the Martial Kingdom, will not have a good end!
"Mr. Luo, let's go!"
Luo Shicheng nodded, and then said: "Your Highness doesn't need to send it, let's stay......"
Lin Yuyan nodded, Luo Shicheng turned around and walked out of Sanli Pavilion, and then saw Luo Shicheng get into the carriage, standing on the carriage, holding the rut, and looking at the huge Wancheng behind him, for some reason, with a slight sigh, he urged the groom to catch the car.
Jing Yi watched the people of the Luo Mansion clan walk away, and his Royal Highness was already staring at the direction of departure, and reminded: "Your Highness, are you going back?" ”
Lin Yuyan woke up like a dream, looked at Jing Yi and replied: "Go back, Mr. Luo is leaving, Wuguo is missing a virtuous talent!" ”
Jing Yi comforted His Royal Highness and said, "Didn't Doctor Luo also recommend a talent of a national scholar?" It is the Han Kui who defends the country, looking at Dr. Luo's admiration for this person, it can be speculated that this person must not be a mediocre and incompetent person, maybe he is really a peerless warrior like Wu Qi! ”
Lin Yuyan also nodded: "To be honest, I am also quite curious about this little official of the Jin Wei clan, Han Kui, I hope he is really as extraordinary as Mr. Luo said......"
Jing Yi nodded and said, "Your Highness, it will be ......"
Lin Yuyan also muttered: "Hopefully......"
