Wang Shichong laughed and patted Shen Guang's shoulder: "Young man, it's a good thing to have enthusiasm, there will be many big battles in the future, I hope you can be the first to rush to the head of Liaodong City, and fly the banner of my Great Sui high to deter the enemy, okay, the pit of those prisoners is almost finished, you work hard, after beckoning them to bury the corpses, they will be given a few days of dry food each, and they will be dismissed, there are two of my soldiers who can speak Goguryeo, you just let them translate." ”

Shen Guang nodded, turned around and walked towards the big pit, and only Wang Shichong and Wei Zheng were left on the slope.

Wang Shichong's gaze gradually became cold, and he sighed softly: "Xuancheng, I think it's time to hand over the military power." ”

Wei Zheng didn't know about Wang Shichong's military discussion in today's account, so he was slightly stunned and said, "Why? ”

Wang Shichong sighed, and told him what was in the account today, and Wei Zheng shook his head again and again, he sighed and said: "So that's the case, lord, why do you want to offend Yuwenshu in order to help Yang Guang defeat Liaodong, it's really unwise for you to do this, even if Yang Guang loses this time, isn't it more conducive to our plan?" ”

Wang Shichong's eyes flashed: "Xuancheng, we have analyzed it last time, we are all Han people, it is one thing to recommend Yang Guang's tyranny, but we can't do anything that harms our race, this time Yang Guang's expedition to Goguryeo is not only his own business, but also the action of our Han dynasty to regain the land that this ancestor fought so hard to seize after a lapse of several hundred years, and to recover the homeland of the Central Plains, even if we want to establish a new dynasty in the future, we cannot miss Goguryeo." ”

Wei Zheng still shook his head: "Lord, with all due respect, these are things that are too far away. At present, we are not sure that we will get into trouble, so how can we take back Goguryeo after the founding of the People's Republic of China. Besides, if he offended Yu Wenshu for this matter, if he frames you next, what would it be? ”

The corners of Wang Shichong's mouth hooked: "The matter of slaughtering prisoners must not be done now." The Sui army newly entered Goguryeo, what is needed is to win the hearts of the people and reduce the resistance of the people here to the army. But he was determined to slaughter the prisoners, and to put it bluntly, he still had to play his own petty calculations. ”

Wei Zheng nodded: "Yes, a few days ago, after Yu Zhongwen led his troops to the camp, Yuwenshu did everything possible to ask his troops to stay on the west bank, and the two of them had a big quarrel in front of Yang Guang for this. I still don't understand, since Yuwenshu has already murdered you. Why didn't the lord turn to support Yu Zhongwen and talk about the balance of Yuwen. ”

The corners of Wang Shichong's mouth hooked, and he sighed: "Yu Zhongwen is a member of the Guanlong family, in addition to the two big families of Li Yuan and Li Mi, their Yu family is another Western Wei founding eight-pillar national family. At that time, the ancestor Yu Jin was the founding general, and his status was even above Yang Zhong, the ancestor of the Yang family of the Sui Dynasty. ”

"Yu Zhongwen is arrogant. And greedy for small profits, in the south of the Yangtze River once resold military rations, to stimulate the people to revolt, but his people can be good at fighting, from the time of the pacification of Wei Chi Yuan, can be alone, for this reason, even the first emperor Yang Jian was careful against him, did not dare to give him too much military power, let alone let him out of the town, forming a separation. ”

"So Yu Zhongwen has not been ambitious during the first emperor, and He Ruobi's situation is a bit similar, but later when Yang Guang was the king of Jin, he was eager to win over important ministers, so he found Yu Zhongwen under the recommendation of Yuwenshu, and became his own Sima of the Jin Palace, and later became the official to the right guard rate of the East Palace, which is equivalent to Yuwenshu's right-hand man, two generals, and it is precisely because of the two of them that Yang Guang can control the army so quickly."

Wei Zheng said with a smile: "But there is no other day, there is only one position of the general general, when they seized power and took charge of the army, Yuwenshu and Yu Zhongwen could still work together, but after Yang Guang sat in the world, he was more reused Yuwenshu, who had no background and was rejected by the generals of Guan Long, and was alienated from Zhongwen." So Yu Zhongwen has been resentful all these years, and he wants to rely on this expedition to Goguryeo to turn over. Right, my lord? ”

Wang Shichong nodded: "So from us, if Yu Zhongwen gains power, then he may gather the generals of the entire Guanlong family, all of them listen to his orders, this person does not want the Sui Dynasty to perish, and he will definitely fight to protect it, he is not terrible alone, but if he can command the generals of Guanlong, it will be a little troublesome." The lesser of two evils, although Yuwen Shu is now murderous to me, I am confident that there is a way to cure him, but if Yu Zhongwen gains the momentum, then our plan to seize the world will be hit hard. ”

Wei Zheng's eyebrows raised slightly: "When the lord said this, I was relieved, yes, when Yu Zhongwen is fighting for the world, he will create far greater trouble for us than Yuwen Shu, so it seems that it is better to continue to maintain the status quo." Lord, it's for this reason that you decided to hand over the military power, so as not to be framed by Yuwenshu next, right? ”

Wang Shichong said with a smile: "This is an inevitable thing, besides, this army of Mai Tiecane was formed by him, he is the soul and core of this army, the reason why he played such a big role when crossing the river is also the reason why everyone from the soldiers to the generals want to avenge Mai Tiecane, and now they have crossed the Liao River, killed the deputy commander of the Goguryeo army, and captured the big battalion, which can be regarded as more than half of the revenge." ”

"The rest of the people, starting from the Mai brothers, will have a weakened fighting spirit, even if I continue to fight with them, it is impossible to have much success, and in my opinion, this army is mostly southerners, and it can come in handy in the battle of crossing the river, but it is about to enter the Liaodong Plain, which is suitable for cavalry combat, and it is obviously not stronger than the other armies. So leaving at this time is the best choice. ”

Wei Zheng nodded, looked at Shen Guang, Shan Xiongxin, Yang Gongqing and others who were beckoning the soldiers in the distance to throw the corpses and heads into the pit, and said, "Then Xiongxin and their personal guards, do they still go back to Yang Guang's imperial camp to serve as guards?" ”

Wang Shichong said with a smile: "Yes, it is still the safest to follow Yang Guang, but there is one person I must stay, it will be of great use in the future." ”

Wei Zheng laughed: "Fei Qingnu, right, you must stay!" (To be continued......)
