On the second day, Lu Benzhong asked Wang Shen for a boat, and set off for Lin'an with Xiao Taode's three concubines. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

It is said that Old Man Lu made such a big move in Qichun, and the officers and men in the army already hated him to the core, and it was polite not to come to him for trouble. However, to Lu Benzhong's surprise, Wang Shen came to see him off in person.

Wang Shen originally wanted to keep Lu Benzhong to work in his own scenes, but he made a joke. Although I was very angry with this old man, I thought of the two or three months when we got along, and I suddenly felt a little reluctant in my heart. Speaking of which, this is the first person he can talk to after crossing over to the Song Dynasty.

Other soldiers in the army, because of the relationship between superiors and subordinates with him, could not speak to that far. As for Yue Yun, he may not give Wang Shen face, but after all, he is a hairy child, and he may not understand what he says.

Speaking of which, Lu Benzhong was the first person to communicate with Wang Shen on an equal footing. Moreover, when the two of them speak, as soon as they say the first half of the sentence, the other party can understand what the next half of the sentence is and what it contains.

Wang Shen held Lu Benzhong's hand and sighed: "Mr. Donglai, there is no feast in the world, when you came to my Huangzhou, you said that you would return to the court when the road was too peaceful, and now it is time to break up." See you soon! ”

After that, he waved his hand: "Load things onto the ship." ”

A group of soldiers came with a few boxes and carried them into the cabin.

Lu Benzhong: "What is this?" ”

Wang Shen said: "Mr. Donglai has always liked antique cultural toys, and this time I killed Kong Yanzhou, and I found a lot of good things in his treasury, all of which are calligraphy, paintings, tripods and other objects. I didn't have much interest in this kind of thing, so I gave it to Mr. A little courtesy, not a respect, sir, please see. ”

As he spoke, he opened the box and asked Lu Benzhong to take a look.

The so-called prosperous antiques, troubled gold. For Wang Shen, the most valuable of all possessions were cloth and grain, then weapons, armor, and finally gold, silver, and copper coins. As for things like antiques, they are worthless to him to the army, so it is better to send a few to Old Man Lu.

Although this old man is hateful, he can't kill him in front of Li Heng and Zhang Jun. That being the case, it is better to leave a personal favor. Although this kind of poisoner doesn't expect him to be able to help himself in the future, if he mistreats himself in the court, it will be a headache.

Since you want to let him go, since you want to be a personal favor, why not make a favor enough.

Wang Shen has always been a person who only cares about interests and has a firm will. Although this old man hated itchy, he was sincere and reluctant.

Lu Benzhong saw that they were all good things, especially a complete set of porcelain produced in Junzhou, which was really as thin as paper, as bright as a mirror, and as sound as a whole, and these utensils had only been seen in the royal family before.

Suddenly rejoiced in my heart, and couldn't help but smile and ask: "Daosi gave me a generous gift, but are you thanking me for being drunk last night?" ”

It turned out that Wang Shen and Li Heng broke up unhappily at yesterday's banquet.

After the banquet, Li Heng was placed by Wang Shen in the Chinese army.

Li Xianggong was also an idle person, and immediately entered the state of placing envoys, and wanted to check the money and grain account book of the Sizhou army, but he was regarded as an idiot by everyone.

Unwillingly, he went to talk to Lu Benzhong again, probably to ask him, a person who is familiar with the inside story, what to do next.

But Lu Benzhong was so drunk that he couldn't wake up, and Li Heng had to go back to the tent depressed and sulk.

Wang Shen: "Master Lu is in a hurry today, don't you go to announce goodbye to Prime Minister Li?" ”

Lu Benzhong: "Li Yanping talked a lot, and the old man was so wordy that he was dragged by him, and he delayed the trip, so he said goodbye without saying goodbye." ”

The two laughed at the same time, feeling the thrill of an equal confrontation in IQ.

Yes, it was originally very easy to give Li Heng a few ideas to make Sizhou chickens and dogs restless for a while. But Old Man Lu is such a shrewd person, and he also knows that as long as he has one more mouth, he is afraid that it will not be so easy to go to Lin'an. His friendship with Li Heng is important, but his own life is even more important.

Jing Chu's affairs have nothing to do with his own money, let him Li Yanping have a headache, there is no benefit to the matter, but I Lu Benzhong will not do it.

After laughing, the two drank a few bowls of wine each.

Lu Benzhong was drunk, and suddenly pointed at Wang Shen with slanted eyes, and said, "Daosi, I know what you are thinking." It is nothing more than to include Jianghan and Ezhou in the bag, as a resource for raising the army. For you, although Zhang Yong and Cao Chengzhong have a lot of people, they have nothing to fear. If you are afraid, you are afraid, and the war will be protracted like the suppression of Kong Yanzhou, so it will be dangerous. ”

This is already to break Wang Shen's ambition.

Wang Shen didn't care, oh said: "What do you say?" ”

Lu Benzhong is leaving the Sizhou Army anyway, and the things here have nothing to do with him. He and Wang Shen were intellectually equal, and they didn't bother to say those twists and turns. Suddenly became mad, and said with a smile: "Your eyes are limited to Anlu, Hanyang and Ezhou, which is too short-sighted." Don't forget, these three state capitals are terrainous and there is no danger to defend. If you want to keep this anointed land, you can't help but fight for the shape of several mountainous state capitals around it, which is also the reason why Zhang Yong and Cao Cheng came to attack Huangzhou. As long as Huangzhou is in your hands, they will not be able to live in peace for a day. If you want to defend Jianghan in the future, in addition to Anlu, Qi, and Huang, Xiangyang is bound to fight, that is the Chongdi that connects the north and the south, and there will be no Jianghan without Xiangyang. ”

However, the place was in the hands of the Jurchens. It's just that there are few Tatars, and they have not had the strength to go south to Jingchu. However, this cannot be the case for long. After the Jurchens seized Henan, if they wanted to keep Henan, they must garrison a large army to defend it. But there are few of them, what should they do, they must set up a state capital, recruit Han Er as a sign army, and use Han to control Han. At that time, you have not yet been able to take Anlu and Xiangyang, the Han people of the Jin people signed the army and even the female Allah force went south to Jianghan and joined the battlefield, but there were many variables. When the time comes, the situation will not be under your control. Why not take advantage of the fact that the Jurchens are still attacking Guanzhong and confronting the main force of the Western Army in Shaanxi, quickly clean up Zhang Yong and Cao Cheng, and recover the six counties of Xiangyang. Only by getting Xiangyang, you Wang Daosi can be regarded as having a solid rear. Yes, Sizhou can fight, but it can live in the land of the four wars of Jianghan and Han, how long can you withstand the consumption? ”

"This battle is in quick success, not for a long time, remember, remember!"

Hearing his words, Wang Shen's heart was shocked.

As a time-traveler who is familiar with the direction of future history, he naturally knows what he should do next.

It is now the fourth year of Jianyan, as Lu Benzhong just said. After the Jurchens seized the lands of Hebei, Henan, and Shanxi, the next step was to form local governments and exercise their rule.

However, the Jurchen population was so small that if they scattered all the soldiers and horses they had at hand, and if they scattered a little in one place, they would immediately be diluted to the point that they could not be seen. In order to rule the Central Plains region of Nuoda, he had to use Han officials and support a puppet regime to control Han with Han.

By next year, the Jurchens would support Liu Yu, who had surrendered to the Jin state, to establish the so-called Great Qi regime, which would serve as the vanguard of their attack on the Southern Song Dynasty and a buffer between the Song and Jin states.

These are all written into the history books, and as a modern person, I naturally know it. However, Lu Benzhong, an ancient man, was able to deduce the future trend of the situation based on the current situation, and this person's talent is really shocking.

Fortunately, this old man is leaving now, and he will be consumed into a waste by the corrupt and corrupt officialdom of the Great Song Dynasty. Otherwise, if he still stays in Jingchu, people are really worried that this old man Lu will suddenly stab him in the back!

Wang Shen arched his hand at him, and said with a serious face: "Thank you Master Lu for teaching me, I also thought about taking An Lu as soon as possible and exterminating all the thieves." Our army has just won Qichun, and its morale is high, so it is time to do it all at once. After a day's rest, our army will return to Huangzhou, and then go west with all the troops available at hand. Goshawk fights rabbit, when with all his strength. ”

The word "Lu Shi" comes from the heart.

"No, no, no, Daosi, you want to be strong in everything. That's right, the Sizhou army is as strong as the Jurchens and invincible. With absolute strength, all intrigue and intrigue are useless to you. However, thieves come and go like the wind, you have to be strong, and people don't fight with you head-on, but what can you do? ”

"Also, Daws's mind was wrong from the beginning. In this battle, we should make a plan but not a force. ”

Wang Shen asked: "Mr. Donglai, please continue, how to make a plan?" ”

Lu Benzhong did not directly answer Wang Shen's question: "Daosi, Zhang Deyuan is here, and I heard that he lives on an official ship more than twenty miles away from Qichun. The old man heard that you used to be Zhang Xiang's doorman. Why, Zhang Deyuan is here, can't you, a protégé, go over to meet him? Speaking of which, you are a first-class talent from Zhang Deyuan's disciples! Although you have now joined Du Gongmei's sect, this relationship cannot be separated no matter what. ”

Wang Shen felt a pang in his heart, went to see Zhang Jun, are you kidding? I was also in a hurry at the beginning, so I pretended to be Zhang Deyuan's doorman, and I had the intention of pulling the tiger skin as a banner, and I couldn't help but feel a little empty in my heart. Naturally, he pretended not to know about Zhang Jun's coming to Qichun, and wanted to avoid it.

Wang Shen: "What do you say?" ”

Lu Benzhong said leisurely: "Build bridges and pave roads without corpses, kill people and set fire to the gold belt." The reason why the thief army is a thief is sometimes due to interests, and sometimes it is forced to do so, but in the end, don't they all have to find a way out? ”

Wang Shen: "What does Master Lu mean this time to use troops against An Lu as a suppression and appeasement?" ”

"That's right, blindly using strength, domineering is domineering, but it is not king." Lu Benzhong nodded: "The thief army is divided into eight routes, and they do not govern each other, and they will have discord for the sake of territory and money and food, but they can be divided and disintegrated." This time, he used troops against An Lu, first gave the thief army a dismount, beat them painfully, and then recruited An Zhi, and pacified Jingxiang in one fell swoop. However, say something that is not afraid of offending Daosi you. Although the thief army is afraid of you like a tiger, you can't represent the court or the official family after all. ”
