Chapter Twenty-Four: The Comer Is Not Good
Geng Bingwen walked behind Zhu Ao with his hands down.
Due to Zhu Ao's instructions in advance, the generals of the Su Domain were very attentive to Geng Bingwen, and took turns to toast, and after a few laps, Geng Bingwen drank a lot, shook his head and said: "Just now His Royal Highness asked me about the method of defending the city, in fact, it is very simple, defending the city is based on grain and grass as the first priority, and most of the Jincheng soup pools throughout the ages have not been breached, but have been starved alive; Many of the besieging troops also withdrew because they ran out of food. ”
Zhu Ao couldn't help but nod his head, and spit out the truth after drinking, it seems that this Changxinghou is really drunk, and the unique work at the bottom of the box has been poured out. In the era of cold weapons, it was quite difficult to attack a fortified city, and the opponent stood on a tall and strong wall, and the advantage was too great. Don't you say that the ancients had three fears? Climbing the city wall, sleeping on the mother, robbing the law field, this climbing the city wall is ranked first, and its difficulty can be imagined.
You don't see the prelude to the Battle of Poyang Lake not long ago - the Battle of Nanchang, Chen Youliang besieged a Nanchang city with hundreds of thousands of troops, and fought for three months without defeat, and was finally overturned by Lao Zhu. Therefore, when the wise generals of ancient times entered the siege city, the general method was to drain the water of the siege, and then wait for the food inside to be eaten, at which point they would surrender or collapse. This method is also called by them: "a soldier who surrenders without a fight". As for how many people die inside, they won't care, as I said before, those who win the world win the hearts of the people, and if they occupy the territory, will no one come to run? If the city can't be defeated, the people inside it are people's, what does it have to do with you?
Men have been good teachers since ancient times, Geng Bingwen is obviously drunk, plus there are so many people who ask him for advice, bring him a high hat, there is no door on his mouth, and then said: "Of course, in addition to sufficient grain and grass, the city should also be strong, you just pile up a pile of grain and grass, the city is very loosely repaired, and people will attack in a wave, and it is useless for you to pile up so much grain." I don't think our Zhangye City is very strong, and if the enemy attacks on a large scale, it is very likely that it will be lost. ”
This sentence made the faces of the generals dull, and they all put down their wine glasses, and some of the temperamental ones have begun to scold their mothers in their hearts: Old immortals, Lao Tzu invites you to eat and drink, is it for you to bury us in front of the prince?
Zhu Ao did not refute Geng Bingwen's words, he just drank by himself, and in his heart he actually agreed with Geng Bingwen's point of view, but this kind of offending words made it better for him to say it for himself, and said: "What Changxinghou said is true, but Changxinghou also knows that the locals can't burn bricks, and the city can only be built with sand, which is naturally not particularly reliable." The Marquis of Changxing is a popular man in front of his father and grandson, after returning to Beijing, can you say a few good words for us Su Fan, let my father send some craftsmen who can burn bricks over, I represent all the soldiers of Su Fan, thank you Marquis Changxing. ”
"This ......." Geng Bingwen hit a spirit, and he woke up for most of the time, but he was sent by Zhu Yunwen to find fault, if he went back and said good things for Zhu Ao, then what would Zhu Yunwen think of him? Could it be that Lao Geng was also bought by the vassal king?
But the mouth of eating people is short, and the words are all said to this part, it would be too bad to refuse King Su's request directly, Geng Bingwen could only play haha and said: "It's easy to say, it's easy to say." The old minister must express His Royal Highness's loyalty to the emperor and the grandson. ”
Zhu Ao smiled: "So thank you Changxinghou, come, come, let's toast Changxinghou again." ”
With that, everyone began to push the cups and change the lamps again.
After the banquet, Zhu Ao returned to the dormitory, Dai Nu was already waiting there, and when he saw Zhu Ao coming, he first helped him take off his coat, and then helped him to the bed, and said, "Why did the prince drink so much wine?" ”
Zhu Ao said helplessly: "No way, the person who comes is not good, this person has to be dealt with carefully." "China's wine culture really has a long history, everything is carried out on the wine table, and the later generations of Zhu Ao is a poor teacher, and he naturally does not go to the wine field more than those officials and businessmen, but he has also experienced some of them, and the general field can still cope with it.
Dai Nu knelt on the ground, and said while helping Zhu Ao take off his shoes: "Wouldn't it be enough to let his subordinates drink more if there is such a thing in the future?" Why does the prince have to drink it himself? ”
Zhu Ao was surprised in his heart, it turned out that the thoughts of women throughout the ages were the same, and they didn't want their men to drink more. At first, Zhu Ao was worried that he from later generations would not be able to adapt to the ancient values and would have ups and downs on the road to picking up girls, but now he understands that the deep desire of ancient women is actually the same as that of modern girls, and there are only two things - love and bread, plus a little face problem - can not be worse than others, especially in terms of finding a husband.
It is said that in ancient times, there was a widow who died of her husband in her twenties, and when she was in her eighties, she said to her daughters, daughters-in-law, granddaughters, granddaughters-in-law and other female juniors: "Your husband must remarry after he dies, don't learn from me to be widowed, that kind of difficulty is beyond your imagination." "Human nature is unchanged for thousands of years, Zhu Ao has always believed in this sentence.
Zhu Ao touched Dai Nu's little head and said with a smile: "Okay, good." This king knows it, and this king will listen to you from now on. ”
A sweet smile hung on the corner of Dai Nu's mouth, brought over the foot-washing water, and said while washing Zhu Ao's feet: "Look at what the prince said." It will always be the concubine who listens to the prince, and the prince is called admonishment. ”
"Hehehe. Well, it's admonishment. Zhu Ao smiled. The feeling of being slapped on the back is comfortable, especially being photographed by his own woman, how can Zhu Ao in later generations have such treatment, take the initiative to shoot beauties, and people still don't appreciate it.
After Dai Nu finished washing Zhu Ao's feet, he instructed the palace maids around him to take out the footwashing water, wiped Zhu Ao clean, helped him to the bed, and asked, "Is it true that the concubine heard that the emperor sent a messenger to rebuke the prince?" ”
Zhu Ao pulled Dai Nu into his arms and said, "Your news is quite well-informed, who told you?" ”
Dai Nu lay in Zhu Ao's arms like a kitten and said: "The prince is the heaven of the concubine's body, and the prince's every move is a big thing for the concubine's body." Today, I heard that the emperor was dissatisfied with the prince's approach, and the concubine was very worried. ”
Zhu Ao turned his head, looked at Dai Nu's sincere face and clear eyes, couldn't help but feel sweet in his heart, pinched her nose and said, "Don't worry." It's just that the concept of my father and this king is different, and your sky can't fall. ”
Dai Nu buried his head low, and said timidly: "Lord, there is a sentence that the concubine doesn't know whether to say or not?" ”
Zhu Ao stroked her hair and said, "Say, you are all from this king, what else can't you say?" ”
