Chapter 172: The donkey's skills are poor
However, he said that the soldiers of the Xiangguo that day, after seeing that King Wu announced the pardon of the crime of transgressing the country in the court, and let Gou Jian return to the country, he was angry and walked away.
This kind of disrespectful practice is a blow to the prestige of King Wu, and accountability can be both light and heavy.
Although, King Wu did not blame it down; But this patience is a balancing act. King Wu knew that the soldiers would not agree to pardon Goujian, the king of Yue, and he also gave up the accountability of the soldiers, which was also a strategy to retreat.
The Prime Minister's Mansion on Ximen Street seems to be very quiet.
At the northwest foot of the Prime Minister's House, there is a set of independent small courtyards. Push open the pair of lacquered mahogany doors in the small courtyard, there is a hall on the left and right compartments, and the area is not large, and the depth is only about two zhang. The left compartment is a secret room, with no windows except for a blackened lacquered wooden door. The right compartment is a study, there is only a bamboo curtain on the doorway, and on the half wall is a dark red hollow wooden lattice carved window lattice.
In this secret room, there is a middle-aged man with a yellow face sitting on the east side, dressed in a white brocade robe, with a crimson bib around his waist, and no accessories on his body, looking simple and plain.
His eyes are like a giant, and it can be seen from his powerful body that this person is a military general.
On the west seat sat a member of the Xiangguo Army, he was dressed in a wide robe with big sleeves, white hair, and an emerald green hosta slanted into the bun, which was also a homely casual clothes.
I only heard the soldier say: "General Wang! Now up and down the state of Wu, although the movement of the army must be based on the tiger talisman of the king, the general is in control of the most elite dragon banner army of the state of Wu, and he guards the safety of Kyoto. As long as the general gives an order, this plan can be done! ”
This person is none other than Wang Sun Luo, the leader of the Dragon Banner Army.
Wang Sun Luo was silent for a long time, it seems that the two have already fought several times. Just look for the last result.
Wu Yuan continued: "Now that the king listens to Bo Yao's words, he is bewitched by Gou Jian, and for a while he considers himself the king of benevolence and virtue, such a woman's benevolence will only make Wu Guo suffer!" ”
Wang Sun Luo said in a deep voice: "Xiangguo is talking about state affairs, and the young general is talking about the way of being a minister." After all, he is a courtier of King Wu, and he can't do such an unkind, unjust, disloyal and unfilial transgression! ”
The soldier snorted coldly: "The general still doesn't understand what the old man means!" The old man was the general Jean who led the dragon banner army on the outskirts of the city. Surrounding the palace and carrying out military admonitions is not to let the general kill the king! ”
"After all, this is a great crime of treason! Even if King Wu agreed to kill King Yue. After the incident, won't King Wu take my life to vent his anger? ”
"Don't worry, general! As soon as this matter was completed, after the king killed the monarchs and ministers of the Yue Kingdom, the general led the dragon banner army to retreat to Dongting. Swap guards with specialized support. The old man will say yes in it. Once time passes, the king will not pursue it again. ”
Wang Sun Luo shook his head and said: "Xiangguo said that it was a military admonition, but in fact, what is the difference between it and rebellion?" Yesterday, Xiangguo was above the court, arguing with reason and arguing with the king. But why didn't the ministers of the DPRK and China help the prime minister? This shows that the king has grasped the power of the state in all aspects. At that time, without the support of the ministers, it will be extremely difficult to deal with the aftermath by the efforts of the prime minister on his own. ”
The oil lamps on the walls creaked. Sometimes a few shiny sparks burst out, and it was a coarse linen wick burning. Some of these sparks burst in the light. It makes the flames flicker, so that the lights are always shaking.
The light shattered the shadows of a room, and in this airtight room, the two of them looked even more breathless.
The soldier sighed and said, "The general can go and pay a careful visit, the ministers of the DPRK and China, how many of them have not accepted bribes from the Yue Kingdom in private?" This is what the old man is most worried about. Once Gou Jian returns to China and works hard to make the country prosperous, but my minister of the DPRK and China is bribed by the Yue State, what kind of situation will it be? If the general is sincerely thinking about the rise and fall of the country, military advice is the last way. ”
Wang Sun Luo patted his head, stood up, and bowed. said: "Rong Xiaojiang will go back and think about it." This happened suddenly, and you have to think about it carefully, after all, this is a head-off thing.
Xiangguo, please stay, the young general will leave! ”
Seeing that Wang Sun Luo's face was embarrassed, the soldiers knew that this matter was difficult, so they also got up to send him off.
Wang Sun Luo paused for a long time, then turned back to the soldiers and said: "Please rest assured, even if the young general does not conspire with Xiangguo, he will naturally not reveal Xiangguo's strategy." Leave! Leave! ”
"The day after tomorrow is the period of King Yue's trip, if the general wants to implement the military advice, it must be before the king of Yue leaves the capital." The soldiers are trying to do the worst.
"This is natural!" Wang Sun Luo didn't reply, led by his attendants, strode out of the Prime Minister's Mansion, got into the carriage, and went back to the camp of the Dragon Banner Army.
Wang Sun Luo had just gone on his front foot, and a person stepped out of the study opposite, but it was Yue Peng.
Yue Peng looked at the faces of the soldiers, and saw that the white eyebrows were tightly locked, and his face was sinking like water, so he knew that something was wrong.
"General Wang rejected the lordship, right?"
Wu Yuan sighed: "The old man thinks that General Wang has been with me for many years, and he is also fiercely loyal to Wu State. But he has too many scruples! ”
Yue Peng smiled: "This is risking your own life, how can you not scruple?" Even though the military advice was successfully implemented, the king had no choice but to order the king of Yue to be killed. But what the final result will be is unknown. Others will not be relieved only by Xiangguo's promises, because Xiangguo is no longer the Xiangguo of the past! ”
"Doesn't the old man have self-knowledge? Now that the king has taken the old man's words as the wind in his ears, what does this mean? This shows that the king doesn't need me anymore, he can already make his own decisions! ”
Yue Peng said: "The king pardoned Gou Jian, is the consequences really as serious as Xiangguo said?" Even if the young general has followed Xiangguo for many years, he is still a little unimpressed with this matter. After all, the actual situation of the country of Vietnam is there, and there is no way to oppose us with the current national strength of the country of Vietnam. And Sangkook's reaction was so strong, which was also an important reason why the ministers did not support Sangkook. After all, what everyone sees is the reality in front of them. ”
The old man also figured this out. After all, everyone is a rat-eyed man. How to say it, Yue Guo is a big problem for Wu State, and that is understood from the height of national strategy. The old man carefully observed the appearance of the king and Gou Jian, and speculated that they were each other, so he was so anxious that he wanted to make this move. ”
"Isn't my king as good as that Goujian?" Yue Peng was a little surprised.
"Wu Wangzhi is very talented, and when the first king was there, he reminded the old man. Moreover, King Wu seems to be strong, but in fact, he is good at slander and has the kindness of a woman; Gou Jian has the image of being mean and unkind, although the ninja is invincible, but this person can only share the suffering, not the same wealth! If you can ninja, you must have a plan. Gou Jian can endure today's humiliation, isn't he full of revenge in his heart? The king was bewildered by his sweet words, so he made this stupid move and allowed Gou Jian to return to China! ”
"But after all, the strength of the Yue country is not good, so it is difficult to do anything?"
"At that time, how could Qiang Chu ever look at our Wu Kingdom in his eyes? However, who would have thought that the old man and the former king and grandson Wu defeated Chu and almost destroyed the Chu State? Who would have thought that with the national strength of the State of Wu, it would be able to defeat the powerful State of Chu? In the same way, the next day the country became stronger, wouldn't it be that there was an extra powerful enemy in our backyard? ”
Yue Peng nodded and said: "Xiangguo is thoughtful and far-sighted, and the young general is deeply admired!" But the tactics of this military admonition were opposed by the junior generals; And this time, the young generals thought it would be difficult to succeed! ”
"Maybe? But I'm in a position, can I let this matter go? ”
But the young general looked at General Sun Luo, and he was unwilling to wade into this troubled water. Xiangguo asked him to send troops to admonish, but he definitely refused! ”
"The old man is also suffering from no good strategy, and military advice is the most risky strategy, and it is a last resort. The old man's original intention was to take advantage of Wang Sun Luo's control of the Dragon Banner Army to implement military advice, prompting the king to kill Gou Jian's monarchs and ministers, and then Wang Sun Luo led the army to support and adjust the defense, and took charge of the Dongting Water Division. The old man mediated with the king and persuaded the king to send troops to attack Vietnam. Now we want to destroy the Yue Kingdom, it is like destroying the withering and decaying, but it is said that it is effortless! ”
Yue Peng smiled after hearing this, and thought to himself: "It seems that Xiangguo is old!" Even the method of military admonition can be figured out, which is really wonderful! This military admonition is not much different from a palace coup, it is all playing with fire! ”
"If General Wang Sunlu doesn't follow Xiangguo's proposal, Xiangguo can have a good plan?" Yue Peng asked a little mischievously.
"! A good idea for fart? Even if the old man sacrificed his life to cut down Gou Jian, what could he do? Having made a fatal mistake in the strategy of the country, this is what is dangerous! The soldier waved his big hand and sighed:
"There's no way for the old man! If General Wang hadn't done it before the day after tomorrow, the old man would have run out of donkey skills, that's it! That's it! (To be continued......)
