Chapter 86 Success or Failure Asks Who Determines the Remnant Sun Alone Reflects the Blood and Fire Pass (Middle)

(Second update.) )

In Li Congjing's cognition, there are many dazzling figures in the Five Dynasties period, if you talk about magic, the officialdom tumbler Feng Dao is the first, and he has gone through the Tang, Jin, Han, and Four Dynasties without falling, and he has been a prime minister for half his life, which is unique in history; If you talk about heroism, Chai Rong, who died young, should be the leader; If you talk about eloquence, no one can compete with Zhao Kuangyin; If you say who is the first talent of the five generations, the answer is also the only one - Wang Pu!

Not to mention that he wrote the "Qin Tian Calendar"; construct tangent functions; set up a new law with seven tones, and wrote the "Law Standard" with seven evens, twelve laws, and eighty-four tunes; planned to build Kaifeng City, laying the foundation for its later prosperity in Bianjing; Just say that his book is famous in history, "Pingbian Ce", which can be called a volume of five hundred years.

The strategy of the Later Zhou Dynasty, including the Northern Song Dynasty, which later unified the world, began with the "Pingbian Policy". If it is said that Li Cunmiao's annihilation of Liang relied on Guo Chongtao's plan to set a surprise attack, then Zhou and Song were able to conquer the world because of the strategy of "Pingbian Policy". The former's strategy, only destroying one country, is enough to show Guo Chongtao's talent, and the latter's strategy to pacify the world is far higher than Guo Chongtao's. Even compared to Kong Ming's "Longzhong Pair", "Pingbian Ce" is even better.

It is rumored that when Zhao Kuangyin intended to usurp Zhou, the world's heroes, whether they were the Jiedu envoys who led the troops outside, or the ministers of the court who held heavy power, were not afraid, but they were afraid of one person, and this person was Wang Pu. Hearing that Wang Pu died, Zhao Kuangyin was greatly relieved, and then began to prepare for the mutiny.

Such a great man appeared in front of him in such a way at this time, Li Congjing couldn't help but wonder if the young man in front of him was just the same name as that great talent. However, names can overlap, and if the words are the same, it is too much of a coincidence.

Li Congjing was looking Wang Pu up and down, and Yelu Deguang had already let out a laugh, "Wang Pu? Haven't heard of it! ”

Wang Pu stood in front of people gracefully, calm and relaxed, and when he heard Yelu Deguang's words, his face suddenly fell, and he glared at Yelu Deguang with a red face. Before he could speak angrily, Yelu Deguang waved his hand impatiently, "This king doesn't matter who you are, now, you get out of the way of this king!" ”

The corners of Wang Pu's mouth moved, he flicked his sleeves angrily, turned to face Li Congjing, and with a bright smile on his face, he squeezed his eyebrows and said: "This benevolent brother, I think you seem to be in some difficulty, do you want to help you?" ”

Li Congjing walked in front of Wang Pu, and when Wang Pu was overjoyed, he went straight past him and brushed him aside, "You get out of the way." ”

Wang Pu: "......"

Li Congjing intentionally or unintentionally put Wang Pu behind him and included him in the scope of his protection, facing Yelu Deguang, and said seriously: "Yelu Deguang, it's time to end." ”

Yelu Deguang was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "You're right, it's time to end, so now, Li Congjing, are you ready to die?" ”

Li Congjing shook his head slightly, "Yelu Deguang, you are bold enough, you are careful enough, and most importantly, you are ambitious enough, which does make me feel admired, but now, here, it is you, not me, who will end." ”

"Oh?" Li Congjing's calmness from beginning to end made Yelu Deguang a little flustered, but of course he wouldn't mess up because of Li Congjing's words, "Li Congjing, do you think you can bluff this king by playing tricks?" ”

"Why make a fuss." Li Congjing shook his head and looked at Yelu Deguang with a straight face, "I have always wondered before, there are so many places in Danzhou, Wang Houde wants to mess with my military and politics, why did he choose Furong Town alone?" It is true that Furong Town is close to Gubeikou, which can be called the heart of Gubeikou, and the town army of Furong Town will attack Gubeikou from the inside, and the Khitan Jingqi outside the pass should be combined with the outside, which will have twice the effect of breaking the customs with half the effort. Logically, this does make sense, and it explains it well. But you are missing a very important point. ”

Yelu Deguang looked at Li Congjing motionless and did not answer.

Li Congjing, who was standing with his hands in his hands, smiled faintly, "You are indeed wise, Wang Houde and Zhao Tianhe originally thought that after this thing was completed, they would be able to go to Khitan to enjoy the glory and wealth and high-ranking officials, but where did they know, you made up your mind to abandon them from the beginning, and never thought of letting them leave Danzhou." After all, if you want the fish to bite the hook, you have to put the bait, even if the fish can catch it in the end, the bait will inevitably be lost, Wang Houde and Zhao Tianhe are the bait you use to catch my big fish. I have to admit that you know me very well, whether it is that you are hiding a large number of elite horses outside the pass, and you are sure that you will be detected by my eyeliner, or you let Wang Houde and Zhao Tianhe make a gesture of attacking Gubeikou, and you are sure that I can see through your plan to destroy Danzhou Tuntian and cause a military mutiny, it all shows that you have a thorough understanding of my mind and thinking, otherwise you would not dare to do it. It is said that the enemy is the one who knows you best, and it is true, and I should be honored that you have been so careful about dealing with me. It's just ridiculous that Wang Houde and Zhao Tianhe will naively believe in the enemy, thinking that you will really keep your promise and give them a future that they can't find in Datang. ”

When Jianzi heard Li Congjing's words, his eyes flashed, and he glanced at Yelu Deguang.

Yelu Deguang's face gradually turned cold, and said: "This is just your speculation, Li Congjing, you should know that if a person like you and me wants to say something that seems to be very reasonable, but in fact it is like a castle in the air, there can be thousands of words in a blink of an eye, and each of them can look very similar to that." ”

"That's true." Li Congjing didn't deny it, but what he didn't deny was the second half of Yelu Deguang's words, and he continued: "Yelu Deguang, you know me very well, and I believe you yourself think that you know me very well, after all, how much you know about your enemy, how sure you are of defeating him." However, I have to tell you the truth, you don't know me well enough. ”

Yerod sneered, "What is it, what is it?" ”

Li Congjing stretched out a finger and said seriously to Yelu Deguang: "But where there is a conspiracy, there will always be flaws. And you used Wang Houde and Zhao Tianhe as bait, intending to lure me to this place to ambush the flaw, not in Wang Houde, Zhao Tianhe, not in Furong Town, but in Gubeikou! ”

Jerod was startled, and a look of disbelief flashed in his eyes.

"If you really make up your mind to attack Danzhou, use fine cavalry to destroy Danzhou, Jizhou and nearby states Tuntian, take advantage of the chaos of the Danzhou town army to attack and kill these border troops, and destroy the border army of Danzhou and other states, you must grasp the most important factor. This factor is time! You must rush to Danzhou quickly with a surprise thunderous move at a time of surprise, and then you can retreat safely before our army arrives for help. It is true that Gubeikou is a strong pass in front of you, and if you want to enter Danzhou, you must first pull out this nail. And to break through the Gubei Pass, there are Furong Town troops and other manpower to attack from the inside, and your cavalry is attacking outside, which is indeed the most meticulous strategy. However, is that really the best strategy? Is it the most time-saving strategy? Li Congjing's indifferent smile was extremely dazzling in Yelu Deguang's eyes, and his conclusion stirred up a huge wave in Yelu Deguang's heart, "Obviously, that's not." ”

Li Congjing looked directly at Yelu Deguang, and slowly unveiled the crucial and decisive part of this battle of wits and courage, "If you want to break into Gubeikou with a fine horse, you only need Wang Houde, who is the assassin of Danzhou, to arrive at Gubeikou Pass in the name of patrolling defense, kill one or two guards by surprise, and open the gate in the middle of the night!" This is really a simple matter for Wang Houde, who has the identity of a thorn history! ”

Li Congjing's gaze gradually became sharper, and his deep eyes were like a deep pool, unable to see the bottom, "Yelu Deguang, people like you and me, will not think that this is the most effective strategy." But you didn't do it, you went to the near and far, and you covered it up, didn't you just have something else? ”

"And on the boundary of Youzhou, there is only one more important contribution than breaking through Gubeikou and destroying Danzhou, and that is my Li Congjing's head!"

Li Congjing's words were loud, like morning bells and dusk drums, hitting everyone's hearts fiercely, making everyone stunned.

But he is not an arbitrary person, after saying that, he took a long time to ask Yelu Deguang, who could no longer hide his emotions and his face was like the bottom of a pot, "Yelu Deguang, do you say that what I said is right?" ”

Jerod did not answer him.

Wang Pu, who was put behind him by Li Congjing, looked at Li Congjing's gaze at this time, full of brilliance, probably because of excitement, his hand holding the sword trembled slightly, and finally, he couldn't help but sigh, "Brother, you are too wise, you are about to have my three points of style!" ”

The fifth girl was originally looking up at Li Congjing's tall back with great concentration, and when she heard the words, her eyebrows sank, her face suddenly became unkind, and she brushed Wang Pu aside and said, "Get out of the way!" ”

Jianzi's long sword had already been sheathed, and his eyes fell on Li Congjing, not as before, with a touch of a touch, but looked deeply at Li Congjing a few times.

Yelude let out an inexplicable laugh suddenly, the embarrassment on his face dissipated like a cloud, and restored his demeanor as the most accomplished young man in the Khitan, he looked at Li Congjing and said: "This king is very curious, since you have seen through this, why do you have to risk your life and appear here?" ”

Li Congjing smiled gently: "If you don't enter the tiger's den, you can get the tiger." Wang Houde and Zhao Tianhe are the bait you use to trap me, and I am the bait I use to lure you into the bait, if I don't show up, how can you appear? ”

These words made Yelu Deguang stunned for a while, but he still said seriously: "But you almost died!" ”

"There are always things in the world that we can't control, and this unexpected existence is this sword." When the words came out, Li Congjing didn't have any meaning, "A gentleman doesn't stand under a dangerous wall, and a daughter's body doesn't sit in the hall, this sound really pleasant, but in troubled times, if you want to stand on the top of the peaks, if you don't even have the courage to fight hard, what qualifications do you have to enjoy the scenery of the peak?" After speaking, Li Congjing wiped his nose, "Of course, it is undeniable that I don't have enough people in Danzhou, otherwise I can block all the crossings and mobilize 10,000 people to search the mountains, so you can't run." ”

Yelu Deguang was noncommittal, "Even so, Li Congjing, this king still doesn't believe that you have evidence that this king has entered Danzhou." ”

"Not really." Li Congjing said frankly.

"Oh?" Jerod raised his eyebrows.

Li Congjing smiled and said, "But I know that you will definitely come." ”

"Why?" Jerod asked.

Li Congjing looked at Yelu Deguang and said very seriously: "Because you want to win me too much." ”

Yerod was stunned, then bowed his head silently, did not admit or deny.

Li Congjing sighed: "The most unacceptable genius in this world is that another genius is stronger than him. In the territory of Khitan, you are the best young man, and no one has ever been able to defeat you, so after you have been defeated by me one after another, you will definitely regain your dignity, this is human nature. After a pause, he said: "Human nature is impermanent and permanent, no matter how clever the calculation is, ignoring human nature, it will not be perfect." ”

At this point, it was the end, Li Congjing no longer procrastinated, waved his hand, and signaled to the guards behind him, "Send a signal!" ”

The sound of firecrackers sounded one after another, one after another, and the explosion crossed the Huya Pass and went straight to the sky.

Somewhere behind the mountain, Ma Huaiyuan heard the movement, jumped down from the rocks, and said to the Furong Town Army who was on standby: "Damn, it's finally my turn to wait for the game!" He stepped on the war horse and waved his hand forward domineeringly, "Soldiers, the commander is in front, and he will go to battle with the general!" ”

In a roaring sound, the sound of horses' hooves and the collision of clothes and armor joined together and rushed out of the mountain road.

Yelude's face was as bright as dark dust, and he was unwilling after all, "Li Congjing, why do you still win?" ”

Li Congjing said: "Because this is Danzhou, because I am the envoy of the Lulong Festival, because this is the Tang Dynasty, it is my territory!" ”
