Chapter 739: A Hundred Years of Planning

PS: There is one more chapter in the evening, around 12 o'clock, ask for a recommendation ticket!

The place where the army is bound to grow thorns, and the outside of the city of Diqiu, which has just experienced a fierce battle, is desolate, with only mud, rubble and graves everywhere, and the homeless patriots have re-erected their tents in the shadow of the city walls, and survived tenaciously like grass in the corners.

"Diqiu has been besieged for almost a month, and a large number of refugees have poured in, and people's livelihood is a big problem." Xiang Lu reluctantly introduced to Ji Ran.

Ji Ran bowed his head, silently observed everything along the way, and had a plan in his heart.

Although it seems that the people's livelihood is withering, the Zhao army has been called the "army of benevolence and righteousness", the soldiers attacking Emperor Qiu are bloodless, the losses are few, and they do not loot after entering the city, but prohibit speculators from rioting, which is much better than the dry bones of the battle of Wu and Chu in the south.

After entering the outer Guo area, the muddy roads are crowded, and the war orphans with sunken eye sockets gather to watch, or beg loudly. Zhao Wuxian's men took out a large amount of Zhao Qian and threw it out in order to make way for these people, and the children immediately started to fight, and the lucky one of them would probably have a bowl of hot porridge tonight.

Ji Ran observed that the markets in the city were particularly crowded, and after the war, Zhao Wuxian had opened the granary in Diqiu and brought out some supplies, but the price of food was still ridiculously high. Described as haggard and withered taxis and women filled every stall, while those with shy pockets stood at the mouth of the alley, watching gloomily.

Zhao Wuxian greeted Ji Ran's convoy as he passed by, and he could feel countless eyes falling on him: numbness, fear, and even faint hostility. However, after seeing from afar that it was the conqueror who drove the car, they were all surprised, what kind of person was worthy of Zhao Wuxian's drive?

The half-centenarian who occupied the main seat in the car looked plain and dressed simply, and he didn't look like a rich and nobleman.

When passing by the fish market, the half-hundred-year-old man even openly asked Zhao Wuxian to stop the car, and he slowly paced down and talked cordially with the fishermen, talking about whether his family was okay, about the market, and even about the ingenuity of fishing. He asked this and that, and finally left without buying anything, and everyone quietly watched outside the wall composed of the sword and halberd of the Zhao clan, but saw that Zhao Wuxian's face was as usual during the whole process, and he was not stunned.

"Who is this person?"

After the convoy left, everyone rushed to the nervous fisherman to inquire, and the news soon spread, "The old man claimed to be an ordinary scholar from the Song Kingdom, and General Zhao thought he was a sage, so he treated him with great courtesy!" ”

Everyone was speechless, but they didn't expect Zhao Wuxian, who raised his sword and jumped on the horse, which made them afraid like a tiger, still have a tolerant side.

The matter was not over yet, after arriving at the big tent, Zhao Wuxian led Ji Ran to the upper seat again, and solemnly introduced him to the guests who came to support the country. The people in the hall were very surprised, and when everyone was in the mood for wine, Zhao Wuxian stood up and walked up to Ji Ran to raise a glass to him on his birthday, and almost held this person to the sky.

As a result, the name of Xin Wenzi, along with the reputation of Corporal Zhao Wuxian Lixian, spread all over the emperor's hill. In addition, he buried Wei Linggong before, treated Shi Juan well, and accepted Lu Boyu's actions. For a while, the doctors of the Guardians began to feel that this robber who broke into the city did not seem to be so hideous......

After the song ended, only Zhao Wuxian and Ji Ran were left in the camp, and Wuxian saluted Ji Ran: "Thank you, Mr. today." ”

Ji Ran avoided and said: "The old man has just arrived, and he has not made a big contribution, why did the general say this?" ”

"Although I am stupid, my eyes are bright, and my husband deliberately stopped at the fish market today to gain fame for me."

Ji Ran said with a smile: "I just obeyed the general's approach, the old man is a contemptible person in the Song Dynasty, but the general wronged the carriage and horses, and personally greeted me in the public, I shouldn't have stayed in the market for a long time, but the general was willing to deign to accompany me." After tonight, I am afraid that the guards will think that the general is a noble man, and he can be a virtuous corporal. In this way, the defenders who do not want to be the courtiers of the Kuai are afraid that they will defect to the general in an endless stream, and the general must prepare enough seals in advance, and do not have to find mulberry wood to engrave at that time. ”

"I hope so." When they first met, they had a good heart and a happy cooperation, and Zhao Wuxian was more eager to stay by Jiran's side to assist. However, compared to these small roads, he is more concerned about the "hundred-year plan" mentioned by Ji Ran earlier!

Ji Ran deliberately sold a pass: "General, Lu Guo is still under the threat of the Qi army, and only by solving this great disaster in the east can he have a chance to integrate Jin and Lu." What's more, between Jin and Lu, there is still a defense of the country. ”

Zhao Wuxian disagreed, shook the wine cup and said, "Mr. has also seen it, Weiguo has been surrendered by me." ”

"Although surrendered, but not naturalized, the Wei State is still an independent Wei Guo, not a county under the rule of the Zhao clan."

Zhao Wuxian narrowed his eyes, and he deliberately made people declare to the outside world that General Zhao Xiao had the heart to fight for hegemony, and he was studying to promote Wengong, although he surrendered to defend the country, he would not covet the land here. Up to now, two people have broken his plan, is his purpose really known to passers-by?

No matter what, I don't want to let all the smart people in the world be fooled, I just want to be able to fool you.

He said: "I have this intention, and I also ask Mr. to talk about the strategy of turning Weihua into a county." ”

……

"Weiguo is located in Yanzhou, the land is flat and fertile, there is no obstruction of the famous mountains of the big river, it is the center of the convergence of the east and west meridian roads, and the transfer is often the north and south holes. It connects Handan and Hanoi in the west, just on the henchmen of Jizhou, and goes east to Jixi and Taoqiu, which is the throat of Lu and Cao. In the past 100 years, Qi and Jin have often competed here, and whoever gets Zheng Guo in Jin and Chu can be hegemonic, and in the same way, whoever gets Wei Guo in Qi and Jin can unify Jiuhe and the Son of Heaven will be uncle! Therefore, if the general wants to unify the east and west of Taihang, he must first lay out the layout of the country. ”

Ji Ran said after analyzing it with enthusiasm: "But turning a country into a county is not an overnight effort, and we have to start from both people and things at the same time. ”

"The people are the state, please talk about personnel first."

Ji Ran glanced at the serious Zhao Wuxian with appreciation: "However, there is no big Shiqing in Weiguo, but the power of the doctor is very strong, there are many shrewd people in the old ministers of Weihou Yuan, and the people regard Uncle Wei Kang's descendants as a matter of course as monarchs, and they will not obey the direct rule of the Zhao family." If the general directly destroys the country, it will be difficult to control it, and the doctors and soldiers of the country will tirelessly defend the existence of the country. Therefore, for the time being, we must not destroy the society of defending the country, but we must defend the people and govern the land, and at the same time support Kuai Shen as the king, we should build momentum for the generals in defending the country. ”

"How do you build momentum?"

"The morning thing is a kind of momentum, I see the situation of Emperor Qiu today, the damage is not chaotic, it is a good time to win people's hearts! Through the general's corporal Lixian, the guards will let go of their fear of you, and then secretly encourage Kuai to take revenge on those who have enemies with him, so that these people have to take refuge in the Zhao family, so that the heart of the guards can be obtained. ”

"The second is the people, the Zhao family can indirectly control the defense of the country through Kuai, and in the future, all things such as relief and disaster relief can be taken by the general under his own name. And things such as labor and tax increases are blamed on Kuai. With these, and as the general said, Kuai is not virtuous, and there is no tolerance for people, given time, when he defeats all the virtues of Uncle Wei Kang, the general can logically help Wei Ren to make another change of chasing the king. After that, he will support a small monarch as a puppet, or directly turn Weiguo into Zhao's county, and the general will choose. ”

"Great idea, it fits my heart!" Zhao Wuxian clapped his hands and praised, he had already consciously done something similar before, and after Ji Ran pointed it out, the goal became clear. For the time being, let's keep defending the country for five or ten years, and it's not too late to join when the time is ripe......

"What about things?"

Ji Ran said: "As we all know, the customs, official positions, and even many detailed aspects of the defense of the country are different from those of the Zhao family and the Lu country. The general could induce Kuai Yu to reform the system of defending the country, and strive to converge with the Zhao and Lu states in terms of writing, rails, currency, calendar, mu system, weights and measures, etc. ”

So familiar with the statement, this is ......

"The car is on the same track, and the book is the same?"

Zhao Wuxian looked at Ji Ran in surprise and couldn't help blurting out. (To be continued.) )
