Chapter Twenty-Eight: Encountering Wang Pu on the Royal Street (Second Watch)

The moonlit night is dark, the crows are crying, and the weather is October. In the past few months, Guo Rong thought left and right, and wanted to rectify military affairs in the army, such as the five generations of forbidden troops, tired of the dynasty, in order to appease, without simple selection, so the majority of the old people, and the arrogance does not need to die, and the enemy will either flee or surrender.

Since the Battle of Gaoping, Guo Rong was deeply aware of these shortcomings in the army, so in October, Guo Rong issued an edict, ordering the whole army to streamline the administration of the elite soldiers, take the elite as the officers, remove the dross, eliminate the weak and help the strong.

In his edict, he also ordered all localities to recruit the world's heroes and heroes not to be hindered by the grass, but to go to His Majesty, personally read the test, and select those with excellent martial arts and outstanding appearance to be assigned to the classes in front of the palace.

It rode all the armies, and each commander chose it.

In November, the Yellow River flooded, silting up its channels and diverting them unevenly, destroying countless houses and submerging fields. The imperial court sent Li Gu to Lan (Puyang, Henan), Yun (northwest of Dongping, Shandong), and Qizhou along the river according to the embankment, and sent 60,000 soldiers to complete the project in 30 days.

In the seventh year of Han Qianyou, in November of the first year of Zhou Xiande, Liu Min, the lord of the Han Dynasty, was seriously ill and imprisoned by his son Liu Chengjun. Liu Min died, and Liao ordered Liu Chengjun to be the emperor and changed his name to Jun.

……

A year has passed, and the time has come to the second year of Xiande, and in the past few months, Zhao Dezhao has used a bright and dark line in his hand, and the spark can start a prairie fire, and at this time he has slowly sprinkled a commercial network and spy network in Luoyang City.

After a few months, Zhao Dezhao's body grew taller again

Through this net, Zhao Dezhao remotely controlled Luoyang. At the same time, Zhao Dezhao knew that soon, Guo Rong would start the road of conquest.

On this morning, Zhao Dezhao had nothing to do, so he deliberately went to the royal street for a casual stroll, walked through a street and alley, and suddenly heard someone on the other side of the street, someone screamed, and then saw a person fall to the ground.

Liu Han said: "For this disease, we must first measure the fat and thinness of its shape, so as to adjust the truth and falsehood of its qi, and in fact, it will be diarrhea, and the deficiency will be supplemented." It must first remove its bloodline, and then adjust it. Regardless of the illness, it will be peaceful. The patient has palpitations, shortness of breath,"

On the streets, people come and go, and it is very lively.

Suddenly, there was an exclamation from the crowd over there, and Zhao Dezhao heard the voice.

Zhao Dezhao walked up, and then saw an old man lying on the ground, with some soil on his clothes, and then his back was hooked, his legs and feet were a little swollen, his left hand was covering his heart, he was having difficulty breathing, he kept coughing, and he was about to get up from the ground, but his face was dark, and he looked like he had a heart attack, he tried to get up, but there was no way.

Zhao Dezhao saw that the old man who fell to the ground couldn't move, and he tried to ask, "Uncle, how are you?" ”

"Little brother, my chest hurts so much, can you help me get up and go to Langzhong." The old man said.

"Chest pain, uncle, you use your right hand to pinch the position of the tiger's mouth for the time being, I'll call two cars, I know a doctor, his medical skills are still good." Zhao Dezhao first picked up the old man on the ground, then hired a carriage and went to Liu Han's medical center.

Liu Han was boiling medicine for the patient in the hospital at this time, and when he saw Zhao Dezhao, he thought that Zhao Dezhao's mother He was suffering from something, so he hurriedly asked, "Brother Zhao, what's wrong?" Is it a mother or a ......"

Zhao Dezhao pointed to an old man at the door, and then said, "The patient is outside, Lao Liu should hurry out and have a look." ”

Liu Han said that this was not Zhao Dezhao's mother, so he was relieved, and then went out of the hall, and saw a patient lying on the chair with his eyes closed and short of breath, and then leaned down and tested his pulse, and probably had an understanding in his heart.

He said: "Brother Zhao, this person is a symptom of palpitations, shortness of breath, complexion, blackness, and swelling all over the body. When I prescribe a pair of medicines here, I will go and give them to the patient. ”

Zhao Dezhao listened to Liu Han's words, it turned out that this person had a heart attack, no wonder Fang Cai behaved like this. But then he said: "I saw this old man fall to the ground just now, so I specially brought it over to take a look at the disease." ”

After a while, the old man sitting at the top of the table, his closed eyes slowly opened, and he saw a stranger around him, and a small child sitting next to the table. He asked: "Little brother, thanks to your life-saving grace just now, otherwise my little old man's life would be suspended, little brother's life-saving grace, little old man should remember it, and he will be grateful another day!" ”

"Uncle, this is a bad statement! I saw the old man fall to the ground, out of righteousness, not for repayment, and if so, it is not the style of a boy. ”

"My little brother is so righteous, my little old man admires him very much, alas - there are eight times out of ten things that have not been satisfactory recently. Nine. ”

"Life is not going well, of course, eight times out of ten. Nine, don't be so discouraged, I don't know what the uncle is worried about? ”

The old man said: "Little old man, I am just a small official in the imperial court, and I have been worried about the country's plans recently, and I don't know who can solve the problem in my heart." ”

"Uncle, what's the matter? If I can help you, tell me about it. Zhao Dezhao wondered, he wanted to know what this old man was worried about.

"Little brother, in October last year, the current saint issued an order to recruit soldiers, and specially ordered the heroes of the world to go to the Zhou Kingdom."

Zhao Dezhao knew that it was Guo Rong's rectification of the army, and as soon as this order came out, people from other countries crowded over to Kaifeng City, and during this time, there were more warriors and soldiers from many other countries in Kaifeng City. And Guangwei Group's business has reached a higher level during this period.

Zhao Dezhao suddenly remembered Wang Pu's "Pingbian Ce", which contained opinions on these issues, so he replied: "When Zi Shengming is today, he has long seen the chaos of the military generals' chaotic government, such as the Jin Kingdom back then because of the loss of morality. And in a country, if the monarch leads to chaos, then the country will be arrogant and the people are in distress, those who are near are traitorous inside, those who are far away are betrayed outside, the world is centrifugal, and people do not need to die. ”

The old man said again, "Little brother, is there anything else?" The old man changed his name again in the blink of an eye.

Zhao Dezhao continued: "Back then, Wu and Shu took advantage of the chaos and stole their numbers, and secluded and took advantage of them to occupy their places. The art of peace is just about the loss of anti-Tang and Jin. ”

The old man shook his head and said, "How does the little brother get the Fa?" ”

Zhao Dezhao continued: "When the wheat grass is uneven, let alone people. To govern the country in troubled times, we must treat it with fierce medicine, we must advance the virtuous and retreat to clear its time, use it to go to the judgment of its materials, give the signal to knot its heart, reward merit and punish the crime to do its best, be frugal and thrifty to enrich its wealth, and make it thin to enrich its people. As long as its warehouse is solid, the instrument is prepared, and people can use it. In short, it is to obey the common people and let them live a life of peace and contentment. People will be peaceful, there is a tendency to take, then those who know their situation are willing to spy for them, and those who know their mountains and rivers are willing to be the pioneers. His people are of the same mind as this people, that is, they are of the same as the will of heaven. ”

The old man couldn't bear to interrupt Zhao Dezhao, he swallowed his saliva, and listened to Zhao Dezhao continue: "All the way to attack starts with the one who changes.

If today's Wu land is the easiest place to obtain, from the sea in the east to the Yangtze River in the south, the land under its jurisdiction is 2,000 li. Our Zhou army should attack the weak point of Wu Land, so as to explore the strength and weakness of Wu Land, and send troops to attack its weak place, then Tang State will send troops out to protect it, and our Zhou State knows the strength and weakness of Tang State's troops, so we can attack from its weak point, but we can know his reality and let Tang State take care of itself. “

"Little brother's insights have opened the eyes of the little old man, today is really worth the trip, let me meet such a number one person."

"How dare you! It's just Dezhao's foolish understanding. Zhao Dezhao said modestly.

"The Tang State has been in war for many years, the national strength has been greatly reduced, and the Tang State is cowardly, if you know that the Zhou army is going south, you will definitely send a large army to the rescue, at this moment we just take advantage of its unpreparedness, but with light troops to scratch it, attack its weak place, we can take advantage of some advantages. Now the strength of the Han State has been greatly reduced, the gas has been lost, it is not enough for the border troubles, you can take your time, the most important thing is to get Wu Zegui and Guang are all ministers, and Min and Shu can be called by flying books. If it does not come, it will go hand in hand in all directions, sweeping and smoothing down. Wu, Shuping, and Youzhou are also looking at the wind. However, the annexation of the state is a mortal coward, and it cannot be lured by grace, but must be attacked with strong troops. Flat edge of the world, this is a strategy. ”

Zhao Dezhao had already finished what he wanted to say, he picked up a cup of tea and drank it, what he said just now was so energetic that he even forgot that his mouth was dry, but he also said it from Wang Pu's "Pingbian Ce" according to his memory. The old man nodded, suddenly silent, and after a long time, he replied: "This strategy can be regarded as the policy of Zhuge Wuhou in the world, the little brother doesn't know what to call it, today thanks to the little brother's righteous action, otherwise my Wang Wenbo is dead and it is just a cheap life." I am going to visit my brother, I don't know what to call my brother? ”

"Uncle, the boy's surname is Zhao Mingdezhao."

"Oh, it turned out to be the thunderous Zhao Dongjia, disrespectful and disrespectful!"

"The old gentleman is gracious! I don't know what the old gentleman is called? ”

"The little old man's surname is Wang, and his single name is Pu. The word Wenbo, "

"It turned out to be Wang Bibe Langzhong, disrespectful and disrespectful!" It turned out that Zhao Dezhao met a boss today, this person was Wang Pu of "Pingbian Ce", and later Zhao Pu also informed His Majesty the Emperor of this matter on a snowy night, and then attacked the world according to this strategy.

Then, Wang Pu said goodbye to Zhao Dezhao and went to the palace.

……

Later, Wang Pu told Guo Rong what he had just said, and Guo Rong hit it off, and this suggestion was "first south and then north, first easy and then difficult." "Pingbian Strategy"
