281 The World of Great Controversy

"And Gan Long Du Zhi's gang of old ministers rely on the old and sell the old, and they actually accuse the widow of not going east?"

As soon as he thought of what he heard during the court meeting in the morning, he was angry, "What should you say that you should follow the ancestral system, seek friendship with all countries, and not make a big move?" It's ridiculous! ”

Shang Ying and Zhang Yi glanced at each other, and they both smiled bitterly.

It turned out that Ying Renhao summoned the Han envoy in the court in the morning, although he firmly refused the invitation of the prime minister, but a group of clan ministers led by Gan Long Du Zhi still took advantage of this to persuade Ying Renhao to give up the strategy of going east to recuperate, especially the law of the Shang monarch is very harmful to the people and must be abandoned.

Although Ying Renhao is weak and wronged on his face, he is already angry in his chest,

"In the world of great contention, the strong will be strong, and the weak will die, don't they understand?!" Ying Renhao's face turned red, "Look at Tang Guo, and then look at Wei Guo, even Han Wu's straw bag knows that he can't be cowardly and afraid of war, but Gan Long Du Zhi They don't understand!" ”

When it came to the clan forces in the country, a trace of gloom flashed in Zhang Yi's eyes, and he couldn't help but persuade: "My lord, Gan Long, Du Zhi and others have repeatedly failed to persuade them, so we must beware of them doing irreparable things under impulse." ”

"Irreparable?" Ying Ren made a good move, and his tone became gloomy, "What do you mean, sir, they dare to rebel?" ”

"I'm afraid it's not just daring, but I'm already preparing to rebel." Shang Ying took out two letters from the court, "According to the minister's investigation, Gan Long and others have been in love with Yiqu Meimu for several months, this is the letter intercepted a few days ago, and the minister ordered someone to copy a copy and send it to Yiqu, which was originally kept." ”

Ying Renhao took the letter and took a closer look, his eyes were slowly congested, his breathing became heavier and heavier, and finally he couldn't help but throw the letter to the ground, and roared: "Good Ganlong, Du Zhi, the widow will not be held accountable for their old foolish sake, they will repay the widow and Daqin like this!" ”

The Qin State is about to rise in a storm, and the Wu State in the west is not very comfortable, and the progress of the war with the Chu State is not good, but the Yue State, which was beaten up before, seems to be rebreathing, and begins to Chen Heavy Troops on the Wu-Yue border, repeatedly provoking conflicts between the two armies, and the war is about to break out.

Xiong Lu was blocked like a grandson by the Qin-Wu coalition army last year, and he had long wanted to find an opportunity to clean up the Wu State, but now not only are the soldiers tired, but the treasury is also empty, and he can't support the big war before the autumn comes, so he has to endure it for the time being.

In the Tang Mansion, Fang Li and Xun Yu listened carefully to the news that the internal guards had discovered, and their eyes couldn't help but get brighter and brighter: "In this way, Ying Renhao and He Lu are about to get busy?" ”

Jia Xu nodded, with regret on his face: "It's a pity that the internal guard is just starting out, and I can't get too much accurate information on the details, but the recent rumors in Qin and Wu seem to be getting tighter and tighter, and it should be good to think about it." ”

"In this way, when attacking South Korea, you don't have to worry about the fire in the backyard of the King of Chu, which will affect my Tang pond fish." Xun Yu sighed, "I just don't know how Zhao Qi is, whether he will get in the way." ”

Fang Li pondered for a long time, and suddenly said: "No, the powerful countries in this world suddenly gather to be the king, it will definitely not be as simple as just trying to discuss it." ”

Xun Yu froze for a moment, as if he suddenly remembered something, suddenly got up and walked to the map hanging on the wall and wrote and drew with his fingers, and it didn't take long for Xun Yu to pat his brain with a smile: "It's the negligence of the minister, my lord, except for South Korea, although these five countries are all friendly with my Tang Dynasty, they are not harmonious with each other!" ”

"I see!" Fang Li suddenly realized, and looked at Jia Xu, who also showed a clear expression on the side, "Wenhe, let the internal guards quickly go and investigate, except for Han Chu, what happened to the other four countries, be quick!" ”

"No!" Jia Xu clasped his fists and saluted, and retreated in a hurry.

"Wen Ruo, you send letters to the garrisons everywhere in the name of the widow." Fang Li looked at Xun Yu again, "With the Gancheng camp as a transit station, no matter what the name is used for training and adjusting defense, the army will be assembled within a month, pay attention to the light movements, don't attract attention!" ”

"The minister commands." Xun Yu bowed his head and gave up his hand, and immediately retreated.

Looking at the sky that was already slowly brightening, Fang Li lowered his face and said to himself: "Han Wu, let your Korea live a little longer." ”

More than ten miles away from Luoyang, the camp of Gancheng in the Tang Kingdom.

This small city, which was originally inhabited by hundreds of thousands of Zhou people, has been transformed into a large, heavily guarded military camp following the example of Lantian, and the residents of the surrounding villages have all been dismissed, and there is not a single superfluous figure to be seen except for the Tang army stationed.

Starting from more than ten miles outside the city gate, the Tang army took three steps, one post, five steps and one sentry, guarding the entire Gancheng like an iron bucket, even a fly could not fly in, except for the rooster and bird, only the earth-shaking horn in the city showed the vitality of the city.

In the large camp, the soldiers of the trapped camp, the first camp and the white army were stationed in different camps to receive completely different training, and they basically did not see each other on weekdays except when they were resting and relaxing.

Compared with the three battalions of soldiers who are tired and tired every day, the remaining 8,000 people of the Zhou army here are extra idle, in addition to routine drills every day, it is to listen to the soldiers from the Tang people boast about how good the Tang country is, and every Tang person who joins the army, no matter how humble his background is, as long as he makes enough contributions, it is not impossible to become a general from a small soldier.

This was completely impossible in the Zhou room, which paid the most attention to birth, and most of the low-level soldiers of the Zhou army were poor people and prisoners with thorny faces, and they soon longed for the grand scene depicted by the soldiers.

At noon one day, Fang Li took more than a dozen personal soldiers, under the escort of Dian Wei, and came to Gancheng with a strong blade and a horse, Gao Shun led Sun Ce and Hua Xiong to wait for a long time, and bowed when they saw the people who came: "The ministers have seen the lord!" ”

Fang Li raised his hand to signal the three of them to get up, and then led Gao Shun to the camp where the Zhou army was stationed.

The main reason why he came this time was to further subdue the hearts of the Zhou army, after all, such a large army was dangling under his nose every day, if he didn't grasp it in the palm of his hand, it would be no different from a knife hanging over his head.

The camp of the Zhou army was arranged near the center of Gancheng, surrounded by the Tang army, and when the camp was still about a hundred paces away, the aroma of food had already wafted out.

Fang Li nodded with satisfaction and asked Sun Ce, who was responsible for training the soldiers of the Zhou army behind him: "It's been more than three months, how is the Zhou army now?" ”

Sun Ce stepped forward and said with a smile: "The minister has followed the orders of the lord, and has reduced the 10,000 Zhou army to 8,000 people, with meat for three meals a day, and the soldiers of our army as an example, the minister also specially lived in the camp, and now, this army can no longer be called the Zhou army." ”

"It's worthy of Bofu, the widow really didn't see the wrong person." The sentry in front of the camp can be faintly seen in the distance, just from the sentry post, compared to the lazy and lazy appearance of the rout army before March, the current Zhou army has changed greatly, Fang Xingzhong is satisfied, "In the battle of attacking Korea, the widow is ready to let the Zhou army and the Wei army be the vanguard of my Tang Dynasty, and these 8,000 people may come in handy at that time?" ”
