Chapter 440: Discerning the Situation (II)
"Sui loses its deer, and the heroes of the world chase it."
The eldest grandson Wuji cleared his throat and said: "But in my opinion, none of the so-called heroes from all walks of life who have rebelled today can be called heroes. The first to raise the banner to rebel Jibei County Zhishilang Wang Bo, high ambition but lack of strength, ambition but no means to display their ambitions, relying on the earliest army, so there is still a few names on the green forest road, in fact, the Jibei army has already existed in name only. ”
"Hebei Dou Jiande, seems to be benevolent and generous, but in fact narrow-minded just pretend to be tolerant to cover up, every time someone makes a mistake, he is tolerant and indulgent to show his generosity, so that although he can win over some people's hearts in a short period of time, but over time, his subordinates will have a contemptuous heart, and sooner or later they will become a disaster. How long can the Lord's grace and lack of authority last? ”
"Xu Yuanlang, Du Fuwei and the like, are just a momentary bravery, with no strategy, now it seems that the soldiers are strong and strong, but in fact, the combat power of their soldiers is only third-rate. Although they have won many victories, they have won the soldiers and people of the counties with average combat strength in various places, and they are not heroes. ”
The eldest grandson Wuji talked eloquently, and his voice was clear and full of confidence.
"Let's talk about Wagangzhai in Dongjun, Zhai Rang is known as a first-class hero in the world, creating Wagangzhai, occupying Dongjun, and inviting Li Mi to be a military advisor, in fact, he is just an idiot. One mountain can't accommodate two tigers, Li Mi is actually inferior to others? Sooner or later, there will be civil strife in Wagangzhai, and when the time comes, whether Zhai Rang kills Li Mi or Li Mi kills Zhai Rang, many generals in Wagangzhai are afraid that they will be chilled. ”
"So, in my opinion, none of these people are heroes."
The eldest grandson Wuji smiled and said, "The general is different......"
Li Xian just looked at him with a smile, his face was calm, and he didn't interrupt his words, although in his opinion, what Eldest Sun Wuji said now was nonsense. Generally, lobbyists have to find an entry point to clarify the purpose, lead people to ask questions, and then step by step introduce the questioner into the routine they have designed. Since Li Xian had long known what the eldest grandson Wuji was for, how could he be taken away by his words.
"You're wrong."
Li Xian waved his hand and said with a smile: "At this time, you should praise Tang Gong first." ”
"Really?"
The eldest grandson Wuji thought for a while and said, "It's true, I'm sorry, why don't I start from the beginning?" ”
Li Xian glanced at him and said, "You have already started from the beginning for the third time, can you concentrate?" Isn't a lobbyist like you too undutiful? ”
The eldest grandson Wuji smiled and said: "The general wants to say that the Duke of Tang sent me, did he send the wrong person?" ”
Li Xian said: "I just found that you don't seem to be in a hurry. ”
The eldest grandson Wuji nodded and said: "I came from Taiyuan, Hedong, and walked all the way to Juyeze for three months, general, do you say I'm in a hurry?" If I go back too quickly, the Tang Guild will say that I don't do my job properly, which is not a good thing. ”
"You're not in a hurry?"
Li Xian suddenly laughed: "You're not in a hurry, aren't you afraid that you will go back too late and won't be able to catch up with your family's Tang Gong?" ”
"Don't be afraid"
The eldest grandson Wuji said firmly: "If I don't go back, how can Tang Gong do something?" ”
"You are frank, and you don't mention Tang Gong to cover it up at all."
"Because there is no need to hide anything, even if I say something fanciful and good now, one day in the future it will be punctured, and then I will be ridiculed and laughed at by the general, I might as well simply be happy. I can't say that the general and I will have time to get along in the future, do I want to be teased by the general every day? ”
"You're confident."
Li Xian smiled and asked: "You have been talking nonsense for a long time, and you haven't said anything of practical value, am I an ugly girl who worries that I can't get married?" You matchmaker just say a few nonsense words, and I'll pat my ass and go with you, with countless dowry riches? ”
"Potential!"
The eldest grandson Wuji said indifferently: "Just because of a powerful word, can the general still not understand?" ”
He stood up and said as he paced: "Since the beginning of history, all dynasties and dynasties have rebelled against the world, and it seems that only one Han Gaozu was born in a poor family, and in addition, they were all from famous families. Even if it is Liu Bang, it is difficult to achieve great things without the help of the Lu family, the Lu family is a famous family, so Han Gaozu also won the world with the help of the family. ”
What he said was far-fetched, but it was not without reason.
"Why did Dou Jiande, Zhai Rang, Du Fuwei, Xu Yuanlang and others have to name themselves early? What Changle King, Xiaoyao Gong, isn't it because they are all from poor families? Without the support of the Maison, they would all be eliminated sooner or later. With all due respect, even if you are as brave and mighty as a general, and do not rely on the family, I am afraid that you will not be able to go further. ”
"Now in the world of the Great Sui, who can be as glorious as Tang Gong in the world, a big family?"
"The Yuwen family, the Pei family, the Yu family, the Cui family, these families are already declining, and they can't make any waves. I said before that there are no heroes in the green forest road, because if there are heroes in the world, Tang Gong should be the best. So in my eyes, there are no heroes other than Tang Gong. ”
"Therefore, Tang Gong is the potential, Tang Gong values the general, and the general is attached to Tang Gong, which is to take advantage of the situation."
Li Xian smiled and said, "You mean, if I don't rely on the family, I will die sooner or later?" ”
"Even if you don't die, you just stop at the three counties, and in the future, all the families in the world will be against you, even if the generals of the three counties are afraid and can't keep it. The people of the family, ascending to the heights and shouting, the followers enter the stream, doesn't the general know Li Mi? Wagangzhai soldiers are strong and strong, and the soldiers are far away from Luoyang, the eastern capital, and Li Mi commanded hundreds of thousands of troops, and hundreds of heroes, which is to borrow Li Mi's momentum, Li Mi's family has a prominent status, and his great-grandfather was one of the generals of the Eight Pillars of Wei. It is precisely by virtue of his name as the Duke of Pushan that the rebels from all walks of life on the Green Forest Road will flock to join the service. ”
"No matter how bad it is, I still have Junozawa in my hand."
Li Xian smiled and said: "I live in Juyeze, and being a leisurely idler is also leisurely, if I follow Tang Gong, I will be a minister, a minister, can I still be as happy as now?" ”
"Not at ease, but glorious in the end."
"Don't use the glory as an excuse to convince me, I'm not a man with much interest in glory. In my opinion, the so-called glory is not as good as a piece of meatloaf, not as good as a piece of meat. ”
"What the general wants, if Tang Gong achieves a big thing, he will definitely give it."
"Be more realistic."
Li Xian said with a smile.
"King!"
The eldest grandson Wuji said: "Tang Gong said that if the general is willing to lead the army to attach, Tang Gong will be the emperor in the future, and the general will be like the children of the Li family, and the general will be crowned the king and worship the general, and the territory will be divided." ”
"The king is worthless."
Li Xian said: "Do you think that if I want to, even if I am now the king, will anyone dare to object?" As for the fiefdom of the territory, even if the Duke of Tang is called the emperor, how big can the fief given to me be, is it bigger than the three counties of Dongping County, Qi County, and Lu County combined? If there are no three counties, why should I be the king of his Longyou Li family! ”
"The general should know the current affairs and not be attached to the family, sooner or later there will be a day of defeat."
"What if I don't believe?"
……
……
The eldest grandson Wuji returned to the room with some annoyance and depression, sat down on the chair, picked up the herbal tea on the table and drank a few sips, and then breathed a long sigh of relief. The weather was already cold, after a few sips of herbal tea, his heart was a lot cooler, and the feeling of depression in his heart was a little lighter, he smiled, looked at the eldest grandson Wujian who was sitting not far away and said: "This Li Xian is also a person with great ambitions, I thought he could see through the situation, in this world, how can the children of the poor family fight for it casually?" I didn't expect him to fall into the dream of competing for the crown, which made me feel a little ridiculous. ”
"Oh?"
The eldest grandson Wujian put down the book in his hand, smiled and asked, "Why, with my brother's argumentation, I can't make sense of Li Xian?" ”
"Makes sense?"
The eldest grandson Wuji said: "I'm about to be made sense by him." ”
He told him about today's conversation with Li Xian, and the eldest grandson listened attentively. After the eldest grandson Wuji finished the matter in detail, she pondered for a while and shook her head with a smile: "Brother has fallen behind." ”
"How?"
The eldest grandson Wuji asked in surprise.
"Li Xian asked his brother why he wasn't in a hurry, in fact, he knew that brother, you were in a hurry."
The eldest grandson Wuji stood up, changed a cup of tea for the eldest grandson Wuji and said: "We have been walking for three months since we came out of Taiyuan, Hedong, and according to our expected return date, we will return to Taiyuan in the first month." Tang Gong also had to listen to his brother carefully explain the news he had heard, so that he could judge whether to send troops and how to send troops. Although Li Xian didn't know the details, he concluded that we would definitely not stay for long. From this point of view, the brother's persuasion fell to the bottom, because the brother was anxious. ”
"Anxious?"
The eldest grandson Wuji pondered for a while, and said with a wry smile: "It's really anxious, we can't stay for a long time, but he has time to spend with us." I can't say that we will hide out again in a few days, and we can only return again in vain. Once, Tang Gong didn't say anything, and twice it was still the same, Tang Gong inevitably despised me in his heart. ”
"So, my brother was in a hurry to promise him benefits, but he didn't care at all, not to mention what his brother promised him, he didn't look down on it at all. He now occupies the land of the three counties, with 100,000 soldiers under his command, controlling the life and death of millions of people, and the soldiers are full of food, so there is no need to be afraid of anyone. My brother was in a hurry to promise him, but he couldn't impress him, didn't he say it in vain? ”
"Just ......"
The eldest grandson's eyes suddenly lit up: "What if I don't believe it?" This sentence is a bit manly, I thought he was just a random scoundrel, but after listening to this sentence, I changed my previous opinion. ”
"Duke Tang didn't promise me any rights, how can I make my own decisions and promise Li Xian any benefits?"
The eldest grandson Wuji said with annoyance.
The eldest grandson Wujian smiled and said: "Tang Gong didn't give any rights, he didn't ask for anything, in fact, what it means is that all rights are given to you, my brother only needs to take care of it himself, but if it won't harm Tang Gong's interests, what benefits can't be given to Li Xian?" He doesn't want the vain name of a prince, so what does he want? My brother felt that he could give it, so he gave it to him little by little. ”
"He's an insatiable one!"
The eldest grandson Wuji said.
"Insatiable because he has this qualification now."
The eldest grandson said with bright eyes: "What he wants is not surrender, at most it is just cooperation." And the elder brother thought that he was the envoy of the Tang Dynasty, and it would be a dereliction of duty not to let Li Xian surrender. In fact, my brother drilled the tip of the horns, where is there such trouble? ”
"Do you have a way?"
Eldest Sun Wuji asked in surprise.
"He wants to cooperate on an equal footing, and my brother agrees! What Tang Gong wants is just that he is involved in Wagangzhai in Dongjun, as long as Li Xian does this, in the future, Tang Gong will break Chang'an City, and then break the Eastern Capital, and then Li Xian's equality will naturally be gone. Tang Gong is powerful, why don't he surrender? ”
The eldest grandson said indifferently: "If he wants equality, give him equality, if he wants to cooperate, then cooperate." Even if he asks for some grain and grass, he can give him it, anyway, Taiyuan is thousands of miles away from here, and it is impossible to transport grain. ”
"It's just telling lies to each other, and it's up to you to see who tells the more beautiful lies."
She looked at the eldest grandson Wuji and said: "Li Xian is just bargaining, the more he is like this, in fact, it shows that he has the heart to belong to Tang Gong!" ”
