Dragon Boat Festival in May, Yue country, deep in Huiji Mountain, ancient trees. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Next to the newly established temple of Dayu, a quaint altar was piled up with stones, and a medium-sized Yue person ** wore his upper body, draped his hair, and offered his own sacrificial wine, cow, horse, dog, pig, etc. to Wu Zhu, and then took a few steps back and bowed down.

"The god of Huiji is above, Zixu died unjustly, the Wu people are sad, and the Yue people celebrate. However, even though Gou Jian is an enemy of you, he respects Zixu's loyalty, and you are not worth it. “

After speaking, the dense Yue people behind Gou Jian waited with bated breath, and the wind blew through the forest, stirring the leaves, and making a sound of Suosuo, they seemed to think that this was Wu Zixu's soul telling them something, and they raised their heads one after another......

"Behold, the wine lord moves!" Just when everyone was doppelgängers, the witch on the altar shouted loudly.

Everyone immediately turned their heads to see, but they didn't see the wine move, but there was not a drop of turbid wine left in it......

"It's the soldier who has appeared! It's his ghost who has appeared! ”

Wu Zhu shouted exaggeratedly, and the Yue people were immediately convinced that Wu Wangfu brutally killed his loyal ministers and abandoned the corpses in the river, leaving Wu Zixu's ghost with nowhere to hide. But the people of Yue sacrificed to him, so he came to the altar, enjoyed the sacrifice, and drank the wine in the wine jue, what does it mean?

"This means that the cruelty of the husband is so cruel that even the ghosts of the soldiers can't stand it, and Wu Zixu also supports the widow's crusade against Wu Guo! This battle must be won! Gou Jian pulled out the sword at his waist and said loudly.

"Victory! Shame on the country! Similar voices resounded inside and outside Huiji Mountain.

In the vengeful crowd, there were only two people who understood, Fan Li and Wen Chong glanced at each other and shook their heads. Fan Li didn't know how many times he had seen similar tricks when he traveled around the world, but since it could be used to arouse the confidence of the Yue people, it was a good thing.

But after coming down from Huiji Mountain, Wen Chong admonished Goujian, the king of Yue, who was wearing armor: "The minister still thinks that the time to attack Wu has not yet come." ”

"The time has not yet come?" Gou Jian smiled, but his mouth did not let go at all: "Since the widow returned to the country, he has been lying on his salary and trying to sleep at night, and he only hopes that the country will be strong." So in the second year, when the Yue Kingdom had a bumper harvest and the people no longer suffered from famine, the Kun brothers of the Yue Kingdom came to Huiji and asked, 'In the past, the king of Wu sent the king to lose face in front of the vassal states, and now the Yue country has been restrained long enough, please allow us to avenge the king.' At that time, the planter admonished the widow. ”

Of course, Wen Chong remembered that he said to Gou Jian at that time: Yue Guo has just ended the war, and it is easy to breathe under the suppression of Wu State, and he is a little rich and rich, if the Yue people reorganize their armaments, they will definitely make Wu State vigilant, and then Yue Guo will inevitably invite crusade. He said metaphorically that when the ferocious bird attacked the target, he must first hide his wings, just to make Wu Wangfu think that Yue Guo had no will for revenge and was not worth mentioning, so he was arrogant and made enemies with Chu and Jin, and it was not too late for Yue to send troops when Wu was tired!

"It was precisely because of the words of the great doctor that the widow excused himself to the people and said, 'The defeat of the past is the fault of the widow, not the fault of the people. The widow has even crossed the country so far, where do you know what shame is? Please rest and save for the second and third sons, and don't mention revenge again. “

"Now, the widow has been back for more than three years...... The warehouses were solid, and the armaments were reorganized in the Huiji Mountains, but the harsh government and atrocities imposed on us by the state of Wu did not lessen in the slightest, not only taking property and women at will, but also conscripting laborers to dig canals and build palaces for the husbands. So the Kun father and brother came to ask again: Yue Guo, love the monarch as much as he loves his parents. The son will think about avenging his parents, and his subordinates will also want to avenge the king, how dare there be those who do not do their best? Please! ”

Gou Jian stretched his hands to Fan Liwen: "Such a request, can the widow refuse?" Now the husband is arrogant, kills Zixu, is punished, regardless of the domestic rice is not ripe, the shrimp and crabs are dead, and the handsome army goes north to compete with Zhao for the Central Plains. The widow learned that the husband had arrived in Song Lu and confronted Zhao Jun, which was a godsend! If the widow still doesn't cut down Wu, when will he wait? ”

"If you can wait a few more months, when the state of Wu is defeated by the state of Zhao, then the husband will be killed, and the country of Yue will attack and harass him again, then this is the best opportunity."

"Completely pinning your hopes on Zhao Guo? Zhao Hou was not in a hurry, but the widow couldn't wait for a day. Gou Jian gritted his teeth, as if he smelled the stench of feces in his mouth and nose again.

"The doctor may not feel deeply, but for the widow, these three years are more difficult than thirty years! I can't wait to eat the meat of my husband and destroy the country of Wu one day, so that I can eliminate the hatred in the hearts of widows! “

Gou Jian said that this is the part, and the literary species did not dare to say any more, Fan Li coughed lightly and said: "After the husband went north, the Yue State attacked and harassed the Wu State from the rear, which is also one of the covenants with Zhao Hou, although this matter is a little too early, but this is also a good opportunity." ”

If he waited until Zhao Hou was wiped out and then attacked Wu, Fan Li was afraid that Yue Guo would not even be able to come up with enough chips to ensure his recovery.

"What's more, once the Yue State sends troops, the Chu State will inevitably follow behind, and then the Zhao State will drag the Wu army again, and the Wu State can be destroyed."

Wen Chong still had doubts: "Will Zhao Hou fulfill the covenant and hold off the Wu army?" Zhao Jun can really defeat Wu State, will he not let him return to the south? Young uncle, have you seen Zhao Hou, what do you think of this person? “

Thinking of the scene of offering Xi Shi's hands to him, Fan Li felt a pain in his heart, but he immediately drove away his personal feelings and said to Wen Chong: "As far as I saw in Zhao State, the whole country of Zhao State promoted the brutality and barbarism of Wu State, and Zhao Hou also looked like he would break Wu and then quickly. “

In the end, it was Goujian, the king of Yue, who patted the board: "It is essential to hope for a strong country in the Central Plains, but to destroy Wu, it is up to Yue to do it himself." “

He announced: "The widow has made up his mind, and in half a month, raise an army to attack Wu!" ”

……

"Young uncle, do you really think that Yue Guo is ready to attack Wu?"

After leaving the Yue Guo palace room, Wen Chong called Fan Li, his face worried, he bluntly said that he was good at governing and knew almost nothing about military struggles.

"Although the king has only returned to the country for three years, but in addition to the years before the son of the poultry you acted as the national government, the Yue country has been recuperating for more than six years, relying on the pleasing husband, the territory of the Yue country has also been re-spread in the south of Zhejiang, in addition to resting with the people, saving food, the king has never slackened in armament, considering that the Yue army is not enough to shoot long distances during the battle with Li, the king found the Chu people Chen Yin to teach the Yue soldiers to practice shooting outside the northern suburbs, in March, the people of the Yue country can use the skill of bows and crossbows, and now there are thousands of crossbowmen."

"There is also a Yue girl who lives in seclusion in the mountains, the king later personally entered the Nanlin to find her traces, begged her to go out of the mountain, and ordered the captain of the five schools of Yue Guo to worship him as a teacher, and follow him to contact swordsmanship, and now there are 6,000 people with short swords, plus 4,000 people with spears, Yue Guo has finally recovered the strength of an army."

"As for the water, after Wu took away all the warships of the Yue Kingdom, the king ordered me to go to the island of Yonggudong in the East China Sea to recruit foreign Vietnamese fishermen, and I have obtained 2,000 people and dozens of boats.

Listening to Fan Li's slow words, Wen Chong was a little relieved, but he was still worried: "Kefucha claims that Wu has a population of more than 100,000 and 100,000 soldiers. “

"Wu has no years without fighting, the people's livelihood is withering, and there is absolutely no such number in the armor. Besides, King Wu of Zhou was able to break the millions of people in Dayi with tens of thousands of people in Xiaoyi Zhou, and I believe that this battle is by no means the same as carrying Li six years ago! ”

He smiled and said, "The king has won the hearts of the people, not to mention, there is such a thing, which is enough for the people to go forward and succeed, regardless of life and death." ”

Wen Chong was also affected by Fan Li's confidence, and saluted him: "If the young uncle can say this, I will rest assured, the matter of the military battle, there is the king, the young uncle and the commander of the Sima of the domain, and the commander of the Zhuma of Zhenyang, I will definitely prepare food and support for the army together with the eight doctors. ”

"It will be shameful before the snow, restore the country, so that the king can reach the princes and gain a foothold in Jianghuai!" Fan Li also held Wen Chong's hand, the two of them have been in Vietnam for ten years, isn't it just for such a day? They believe that those who work hard will live up to it!

Half a month later, the young and strong people scattered in various parts of the Yue country gathered to Huiji one after another, and the king of Yue, Goujian, inspected the people, and issued an oath in the local dialect of Yue: "The few people who heard the ancient sages, did not worry about the lack of their people, but worried about their ambitions and deeds." In the country of today's husband, there are 3,000 people who are clothed in water and rhinoceros, but they do not suffer from the shame of their ambition and deeds, but from the small number of their people, from the small size of their palaces, from the lack of their beauty, and from the relaxation of oppressing the people...... Its perverse actions will help the heavens to destroy it now! “

After finishing speaking, everyone shouted that Yue Guo would win, Gou Jian nodded with satisfaction, and asked his Sima Fan Li to announce the newly formulated military law.

Fan Li stood up and said loudly: "The king doesn't want you to wait for the courage of the horseman, but wants you to wait for the brigade to advance and retreat." If you don't want to die, you won't have to die, and if you retreat, you will be shameless; In this case, there is a permanent punishment! If you advance, you will think of reward, and if you retreat, you will think about punishment; In this way, there is a constant reward. “

After speaking, he unfolded the silk book and read it out: "From now on, those who have meritorious service in the country of Vietnam will be knighted and granted fields!" The knights are divided into 12 classes, the first class is called the Gongshi, the second class is called the Zaoshi, the third class is called the good man, the fourth class is called the Rong Shi, the fifth class is the national scholar, the sixth class is not changed, the seventh class is called Bingduo, the eighth class is called Zhirong, the ninth class is called the official doctor, the tenth class is called the Gong doctor, the eleventh class is called Zhigui, and the twelfth class is called Yuan Rong! ”

Fan Li went north to Zhao State, but it was not just as simple as sending a Xi Shi, many of the good governance of Zhao State were firmly remembered by him, and after returning to Yue State, he reported Gou Jian and chose his good ones to follow.

After saying that he completely copied the "twelfth-rank lord" of Zhao State, Fan Li popularized the status of each title to the bewildered Yue people, how many acres of land they could get, how many houses they owned, and how many slaves they could get.

Although the Yue people are not interested in these strange titles, those benefits are real, and there is only one requirement to get a knighthood.

That's the head, the head of the people of Wu!

For a time, the people of Yue encouraged each other, the father encouraged his son, the brother encouraged his brother, and the woman encouraged his husband, saying: Who is the king, but there is no death? ”

In late May, the country of Vietnam raised troops to attack Wu!
