Chapter 125: Fishing in Troubled Waters
"Big brother, how did you ask You Jian today to get war horses, weapons, grain and grass? This old boy, the last time I went to talk to him, he just didn't pull out a dime! It's still big brother, you're amazing, and you'll get it all done as soon as you make a move! Wang Shicheng said happily. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Since he is unwilling to give us face, then I can only use His Majesty to suppress him in front of His Majesty." Shi Zhan replied lightly.
"Big brother is clever! Since then, the weapons and horses of the wolf cavalry have been settled, and the imperial court has allocated an additional batch of grain and grass to us, and the brothers will not have a problem eating for the time being! Wang Shicheng couldn't help but applaud.
"I'll talk about this later, let's get down to business, this time you take Xiao Min out on the expedition, and everything is decided before acting. But don't protect him too well, let him face the risks, don't let other people go, everyone is raised by his parents, my son is a son, and other people's sons are also sons, I hope you do it equally, understand no! Shi Zhan said solemnly.
"I understand! Big brother rest assured! Wang Shicheng said solemnly.
"This time, your task is not to kill how many Huns and Qiang people, but not to let them take their cattle away, you don't have to chase them for a long time, just achieve your goal." Shi Zhan advised again, then sighed deeply and said, "The rest depends on how God arranges it!" ”
Li Chang and Wang Shicheng quietly looked at each other and didn't say anything more.
"Third, there is one more thing." Shi Zhan beckoned to Wang Shicheng.
"Big brother, you say." Wang Shicheng came over.
"I sent you out this time, there is another purpose, to fish in troubled waters, take advantage of the chaos to lead some war horses back, I know, you are very good at doing this kind of thing!" Shi Zhan patted Wang Shicheng's shoulder and said with a smile.
Wang Shicheng was stunned for a moment, and he and Li Chang both laughed randomly, and said: "Big brother, although your words sound like scolding me, I am really willing to do this!" Hahahaha~"
Shi Zhan also laughed and asked Li Chang: "Now you know why you didn't let you go, right?" Only the third child can do this! You can't! ”
"Third child, then you can take a little more! When the time comes, we will equip each brother with horses and turn them all into cavalry. ”
"Then you might as well take someone to the Huns to rob it yourself!" Wang Shicheng gave him a blank look.
Lord Liang sat there, quietly looking at Shi Shi and Zhang Bao.
Shi Shi looked depressed and said: "Sure enough, you said it, my father is very satisfied with Lao Jiu now, maybe when he comes back, the crown prince will not be mine." ”
The Liang County Lord smiled faintly and did not speak, while Zhang Bao noticed the subtle movement of the Liang County Lord. Zhang Bao said to Shi Shi with a smile: "Your Highness, rest assured, the show has just begun, and Xihuahou has already helped you do what you should do but don't want to do today." ”
"What should you do but don't want to do?" Shi Shi didn't understand what Zhang Bao meant, and looked at Zhang Bao with wide eyes and asked.
Zhang Bao looked at Shi Shi with a smile and did not speak, Shi Shi looked at Zhang Bao, thought for a moment, suddenly realized, and said, "Is that the strategy you told me yesterday?" ”
Zhang Bao nodded.
"But these are two different things! Didn't you say ...... before" Shi Shi said, deliberately stopped, looked around, made sure there were no outsiders, and then continued: "Didn't you say that you want this king to send a detailed work to pass on Lao Jiu's march to the Huns?" Then let him be defeated, so that his father would be disappointed in him. ”
"That's right, but now that Xihuahou has made a move, we don't need to do such a thing, so as not to make His Highness unbearable, wouldn't it be better."
"I still don't understand what you mean, didn't Lao Wu go to help Lao Jiu this time? Today, the fifth elder in the hall has analyzed it so thoroughly, how can there still be a reason for the defeat of the army? Shi Shi looked at Zhang Bao and Liang County Lord suspiciously.
Lord Liang put down the cup and said lightly: "Does Your Highness think that King Qing and the Marquis of Xihua will have the same hatred?" ”
"No! Lao Jiu has always been 10,000 dissatisfied with Lao Wu. Shi Shi replied without thinking.
"The county lord has reached the point." Zhang Bao nodded respectfully to the Liang County Lord, intending to erase some of the previous estrangement between him and the Liang County Lord.
Lord Liang didn't make any response, and continued to lower his head and drink tea.
Zhang Bao was a little embarrassed, and Shi Shi said as if he didn't understand: "I seem to understand what you mean!" ”
"So Your Highness, don't worry for the time being, things are still within the scope of what we can accept."
Shi Shi nodded, as if he understood what Zhang Bao meant.
Gao Shangzhi and Shi Jian sat opposite each other, both of them staring seriously at the chess game on the table, and on the small charcoal stove next to them, a pot of water was boiling, and there was a slight "gurgling" sound from the pot.
The third child standing next to him hurriedly squatted down and prepared to pick up the kettle to make tea.
"Don't worry, cook a little longer." Shi Jian held the sunspot in his right hand, his eyes were still staring at the chessboard, and he said lightly.
The third child looked at Gao Shangzhi and Shi Jian suspiciously, only to see Gao Shangzhi glance at him, and the third child obediently put the kettle back on the charcoal stove.
"The adult's chess skills are still so exquisite, Bai Zi outflanked in a roundabout way, and it seems that there is no order, but in fact, he has secretly crossed Chen Cang, which really makes this king a little embarrassed." Shi Jian said, and dropped a son gently.
Gao Shangzhi carefully looked at Shi Jian's sunspot trend, frowned, and suddenly laughed "haha", and said: "Your Highness is really in a desperate situation just now, not confined to the gains and losses of a son, starting from the overall situation, sacrificing these few chess pieces, but suddenly the peak turned, and the situation was immediately different, it was really wonderful!" ”
At this time, the charcoal stove made a "zizi" sound, and it turned out that the water had been completely boiled and overflowed from the mouth of the pot.
"The water is also good!" Shi Jian turned around and picked up the teapot, and the third child hurriedly put the tea bowl next to the chessboard, and the boiling water entered the bowl, and the fragrance of tea was overflowing.
"Good tea!" Gao Shangzhi smelled the fragrance of tea and said with a smile.
Shi Jian put the teapot back into the charcoal stove, handed the tea bowl to Gao Shangzhi, and said, "Today is not only good tea, but also good chess for adults. ”
"The person sent by You Jian to report to Li Cheng is already on the way, if there is no accident, he can arrive in Li Cheng tomorrow morning at the latest." Gao Shangzhi picked up the tea bowl, blew it lightly, and said slowly.
"Don't worry, the tea is very hot." Shi Jian reminded Gao Shangzhi, then brought his tea bowl to his front and said, "The show has just begun. ”
"Today, Xihua Hou's analysis of the battle situation in the main hall, has His Royal Highness heard it?"
"The old five are resourceful, I am the first good general in Zhao State, and I deserve it." Shi Jian smiled, took a sip of tea slightly, then put down the tea bowl and said: "It's a pity, no matter how good the strategy is, Lao Jiu won't listen to it, especially this strategy was proposed by Lao Wu." ”
"What His Royal Highness thinks, it coincides with the old minister, Xihuahou's tactics are seamless, I'm afraid that the people who come to implement this tactic are a group of stupid talents." Gao Shangzhi said and laughed.
"Is there any movement over there?" Shi Jian asked the third child standing aside.
"Last night, the eighth child was staring, and there was no movement in the post house, but the few suspicious people who told His Highness yesterday still appeared around the post house from time to time."
"My lord, it looks like it's time for us to move at night." Shi Jian glanced at Gao Shangzhi.
"What does Your Highness mean?"
"Let's leave the affairs of the Huns aside for the time being, first cut off Murong Jun's hand, and then give this favor to Shi Yong." Shi Jian picked up the tea bowl again and said.
"Your Highness, isn't it true that you have already thought of a countermeasure?" Gao Shangzhi asked.
Shi Jian smiled, and Gao Shangzhi immediately understood it, and instructed the third child: "Let the fourth and fifth children keep an eye on those suspicious people in the past few days, and find out their hiding place as soon as possible." ”
"My subordinates understand!"
