Chapter 382 [Tears and Tears]
Pang Cong has an army of 80,000, if he desperately breaks through the siege at the cost of casualties, even if Bai Dong builds a steel castle, he dare not say that he will be able to trap the Wei army, after all, Daliang still has to leave a part of the army, and the army of the young officer of Gongzi will also be left as a maneuver, and the army he uses to besiege Pang Cong is only 100,000 people, even if he is fully prepared and the black technology of Zhuge Repeater, in fact, it is still the hemp rod that fights the wolf, and if he is not careful, he will be crushed.
Fortunately, Pang Cong was too careless, and the Wei army did not carry much grain and grass, which gave Bai Dong a lot of opportunities; And judging from the behavior of the Wei army after being trapped, Pang Cong not only did not strive to break through the siege or try to withdraw from the chasm, but instead showed extreme calm, strengthened the camp day by day, and put on a posture of fighting a protracted war. Using himself as a bait in a vain attempt to attract the Qin army, waiting for the Wei army to come to a beautiful counter-encirclement?
Sometimes history is really wonderful, always people inadvertently experience a reincarnation, and the intersection points that people are familiar with or unfamiliar with are secretly highlighted in these reincarnations, sometimes they slip away quietly in front of people's eyes, and sometimes they make people suddenly realize and sigh the miracle of the creator.
Bai Dong, who thought that he would experience a few big battles, couldn't help but smile, I have to say that Pang Cong is like the Huang~Pu elite in later generations, and he has changed his thinking slightly, and he was originally passively surrounded, but he became an active lure to the enemy, and maybe he could become a hero of Wei? Talented! It's a pity that geniuses are often naΓ―ve, and it's even more tragic for geniuses who don't understand politics.
According to the information that Bai Dong had, Wei Shen and Pang Juan had already had a contradiction; The key is that this contradiction is not simply villain jealousy, Pang Juan is ruthless but not a villain, no matter how unbearable Wei Shen is. In later dynasties, he was definitely a wise king with a pioneering spirit and sufficient ability. The contradiction between these two people is just a collision of values.
Only by knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent can one win a hundred battles. According to the information collected by Bai Dong, the contradiction between Wei Shen, Gongzi Ang and Pang Juan belongs to the dispute of 'gentlemen'. The dispute between villains is actually the easiest to resolve, because most of them come from interests, as long as there are enough interests, two villains who are enemies of each other can become a pair of people who are full of love ~ heart. The dispute between gentlemen is different, both sides are fighting based on 'righteousness', and since they are gentlemen for the country and the people, how can they fight for a little benefit? As long as there is an opportunity, the gentleman is definitely ten times more cruel than the villain to the villain.
This is to look at the problem from the height of politics. Pang Cong, the rough embryo of the army, can't see it, and Chang Yuan, Wei Shen's descendant, can't see it clearly; Three days after Pang Cong was besieged, the slow Wei scouts finally brought back this shocking news, at this time Wei Shen's military order had not yet been issued, Chang Yuan had already issued a military order, and the whole army accelerated to help Pang Cong, originally marching sixty miles a day, but now it has to be changed to a one-day march of 100 miles! General Chang has always been a person with a bottom line, and he is also a smart person, even if he is a descendant of Wei Shen and has never had a good impression of the Pang family, he also knows that what should be insisted on at this critical juncture is the national righteousness! It also shows the righteousness of Pang Cong to lure the enemy with his body. If he arrives one step late, I'm afraid he will become a sinner in the Wei State!
For fear that his military strength is not enough. At the same time as rushing to the aid of Pang Cong, Chang Yuan also released countless herald pigeons and light horse scouts, stating to Wei Shen that he was powerful, and put forward the strategic intention of the army to go north and gather and annihilate the Qin army. He believed that the prince would definitely put aside his prejudices and go to the national disaster with the Pang family. The opportunity to defeat Bai Dong has arrived, and the prince should see it more clearly than him, and he will definitely not let go of this opportunity.
Wei Shen quickly replied, but the order from Feishu made Chang Yuan almost vomit blood, "General Pang is the elite of our army, how can the Qin army be broken?" This is the policy of the Bai Dong movement, if my army is mobilized by him, there will be a lifetime of silence, and there will be variables immediately! The general must not be fooled, the army should rest on the spot, stand by and move, earnestly! β
"Fart!"
Chang Yuan's lieutenant still can't forget how angry General Chang was at that moment, he tore up the letter and was still angry, and actually asked someone to stew the whole pigeon that sent the letter and drink with him, and then scolded the prince for ignoring the righteousness while drinking, and he was willing to stop only if he wanted to kill General Pang. The deputy general really wants to remind Chang Yuan that we are the people of the world! can see Chang Yuan's angry expression in his eyes, he didn't dare to speak after all, otherwise Chang Yuan would really cut off his head!
Chang Yuan, who was promoted by Wei Shen to become a general from the Jingwu stroke, violated Wei Shen's order for the first time, not only did not stop to rest, but urged the army to march quickly, and as a result, it was raided by the elite cavalry led by the young officer of Gongzi near Linjun who was only a hundred miles away from the army of Pang Cong, and the combat effectiveness of the Changyuan army with only 10,000 soldiers was obviously insufficient. Fortunately, Gongzi's young officers and soldiers are insufficient, otherwise he would be the second Pang Onion.
Chang Yuan, who took a little rest, was not waiting for Wei Shen's encouragement but the indifferent military law team, this military law team was a loss of three horses per person, and after four hundred miles of galloping one day and night, the military judge was so tired that he wanted to vomit blood, and it was strange that this grievance did not come out on his head. According to Wei Shen's general order, Chang Yuan was removed from the battlefield and escorted to Cheng Kuang for trial, and Chang Yuan's first army was temporarily led by Wei Tu, and he retreated 300 miles to Cheng Kuang to rest. According to the military regulations of the Wei State, those who do not obey the orders of the generals in wartime will be killed.
Wei Shen's drastic methods against Chang Yuan shocked all the generals in the army, and those who admired Pang Cong and sympathized with Chang Yuan before now kept their mouths shut wisely. After receiving the information, Bai Dong couldn't help but sigh, the history will be so similar, after this incident, Pang Cong is afraid that he will no longer be able to wait for reinforcements, and the chasm will become Meng Lianggu, Pang Cong is the tragic Zhang ~ Lingfu
"You are the general I picked up, but you violated my orders at the most critical time, I want to kill you, do you have any complaints?"
Wei Shen didn't sit upright in the high hall, there were no delicate beauties beside him, not even a single guard left, Chang Yuan had no shackles on his body, he was still wearing his general's robe, and on the low table between the two of them, there were fine wines, barbecues, and fruits that only nobles could enjoy. These fruits are kept in the ice cellar in the summer, and it is not known how much financial and human resources it will cost to add ice cubes and maintain them on weekdays.
Wei Shen poured a glass of wine for Chang Yuan. Peel an orange for him with your own hands. Then he sighed softly: "You are my man." Now that I am against me for the sake of the Pang family, if I don't kill you, who else will listen to my orders in the future? Chang Yuan, I have to kill you, what else do you want, but it doesn't hurt to say. β
"If the son of the world misses the old love, please let my family go"
Chang Yuan swallowed the orange in one bite, and then glared at Wei Shen. He was dissatisfied and angry in his heart, but he had to bow his head for the fate of his family.
"You've been with me for five years, don't you know what kind of person I am?"
Wei Shen shook his head slightly: "Don't worry, the sin is not as good as your family, after you die, I will ensure that your family will always enjoy prosperity." Your son's name is Changshan, right? I remember that he loved to study the most, and after Bai Dong created a new poetry style, his new poems became popular in Daliang, and he was known as 'Chang Jiu Change', and I don't know how many Wei Dafang regarded him as a dream couple. Wait until after the armistice of Qin and Wei. I will try to send him to study at the 'Fengming Academy' in the Qin Kingdom, this battle will not last long."
"Xie Shizi!"
Chang Yuan took a bowl of wine and dried it. Since Wei Shen promised like this, he had nothing to worry about, and stared at Wei Shen: "At the moment of state affairs, why does the prince want to fight!" Could it be that the prince can't see the righteousness of General Pang Cong to lure the enemy with his body, and he can't see that this is a great opportunity to annihilate Bai Dong? β
"Hehe, what if you annihilate Bai Dong? Is it to deepen the hatred of Qin and Wei and add a great enemy to the west for me? Chang Yuan, you have always been a military general who does not understand the affairs of the court, like a worm that can't survive the winter, and you can't see the scenery farther away."
"For a military general, why do you need to go through the affairs of the court? Could it be that increasing internal friction like the prince of the world is the way to strengthen the country? Chang Yuan thinks that now that the enemy is present, whether it is the prince or General Pang Juan, they should all focus on national affairs! In this way, my Great Wei will always maintain the position of overlord and sweep away in the future"
"Well said, impassioned! It's a pity that if you hear what Pang Juan hears, you will definitely laugh at his belly, and state affairs are important? When did Pang Juan have Wei in his eyes? Wei Guo is just a puppet in his hand, but he is just the capital to support him as a famous general in the world! Therefore, the trouble of Wei is not in Qin Zhao, but in Ponzi! Chang Yuan, Chang Yuan, you really disappointed this son! β
Wei Shen interrupted Chang Yuan with a sneer: "Back then, Li Zi was in Wei, and he cultivated intensively and did his best, and Wei was strong!" Wu Zi was in Wei, training military soldiers, opening Hexi, breaking Qin's 500,000 army, and Wei was determined! But since the rise of Pang Juan, what has Wei gained? What he brought was the flames of war, the poor troops, and I did my best! Since Pang Juan became a general, he has fought countless battles and won countless battles, and he has become a famous general in the world! But what did Wei get? What Uncle Wang and I saw was that the treasury was gradually empty, what we saw was that orphans and widows were crying in the wilderness, and what we saw was that the savings of Wenhou and Wuhou were gradually emptied by him! Therefore, the battle of Pang Juan was not for the Wei State, but for his personal selfishness! If this person doesn't go, the Wei State will decline from prosperity to decline, and sooner or later it will become a weak country! β
"For this reason, Uncle Wang and Huizi have repeatedly advised my father to take back Pang Juan's military power, but unfortunately my father is cautious, but he only wants to be vain, although he is defensive of Pang Juan, but he is still intoxicated with the 'victories' he has brought Pang Juan and has a very high prestige in the army, and he has the 'Pang Family Army' in his hands, and Uncle Wang and I also want to throw a mouse trap."
Wei Shen glanced at Chang Yuan: "Bai Dong raised troops to invade my Great Wei, so he will naturally be punished; However, before that, using Bai Dong's hand to weaken the power of the Pang family is also what this son must do. Although this move is related to tens of thousands of lives, for the long-term peace and stability of the Great Wei Dynasty and for the sake of Pang Juan's restraint, what are tens of thousands of lives? What you see is just a war, but what this world sees is a hundred years of the Wei Kingdom, why should the world know the joys and bitterness? β
"The prince of the world often doesn't know the mind of the son, damn it!"
"I can't blame you, this son is suspicious by nature, although you are my confidant, but you have never put your heart into it, and now you have violated my military order in public and have to be killed, and it is too late for this son to regret it. Hey Changyuan, you can go on the road with peace of mind, and this son will correct your name in the future; You are not a sinner of the Wei Kingdom, but on the contrary, you are a hero of the Great Wei! β
"Chang Yuan, thank you to the son, why not give this head to the son?"
"Chang Yuan, you go all the way."
As soon as Wei Shen grasped Chang Yuan's hands, tears fell like rain. (To be continued......)
