Ji Guang packed some cloth, grain, and some fine wine in an ox cart. Afraid of causing unnecessary trouble, he rode a horse, followed the light car, and quietly went to Yangshan. Along the way, I only saw the beautiful mountains and rivers, the small river leisurely, and it was a good place to live in leisure.

When they arrived at Yangshan, they asked the villagers, and several people walked towards a dense forest. It turned out that the soldiers resigned from the official title, went to Yangshan, and after receiving the 100 acres of land from King Wu, they built a thatched house in a dense forest in Yangshan to talk about their livelihood. And named the thatched cottage "Chuqiu". He rented the fields to those peasants, and he didn't work himself, but only danced and danced swords on weekdays, and read some ancient books in his spare time, as if he was a fool and enjoyed himself.

In fact, the soldiers were always watching the situation, and their eagle-like eyes were always watching every move of the Wu court, trying to find their own opportunities in those power struggles. So that one day, all wishes come true, step on the war horse, and wave the army to fight Chu.

Seeing that several people came to the front of their house with ox carts, when the soldiers came out to see, the son had already come to the door.

Seeing the salute, Childe asked in a cool voice, "Sir, don't come unharmed?" I came out of nowhere today, and I didn't have time to report it, so Mr. won't blame me, right? ”

The soldiers returned the salute, let Ji Guang into the house, and sat down. Ji Guang smiled: "Sir is hard, I haven't seen Mr. since the last offense." I heard that Mr. Taoguang is here to keep his eyes on the obscurity, and he wants to choose a good tree to live in. I want to ask Mr. Wu for something. ”

The soldier owed: "The prince is the king, and today I take care of the thatched house, how can I be at peace in my heart?" ”

Childe Haha smiled: "Mr. has good intentions, but he has the talent to help the world but is hidden in the recklessness, which is not Mr.'s wish." Please hold back and so, I have something to ask sir. ”

And the attendants went out, and the servants told their men to retreat, and the two of them talked on their knees.

The soldier asked, "Childe tried his best to stop my plan to borrow the teacher's revenge, but is it for today?" ”

Childe replied, "Not only to stop Mr., but also for Wu Guo." You think that now Chu is strong and Wu is weak, and it is not the best time to cut Chu. Your revenge cannot be built on the danger of our country, sir, and if I think about it, does there be some truth in what I said? ”

The soldier groaned half-loudly, speechless. Half a day before he spoke: "Now my thatched hut and thatched hut is like a fairy-like day, and I am at ease." Even if I help Gongzi win the country in the future, and Gongzi still doesn't agree with my revenge, then what if I want to do something very risky to seize the country? Doesn't that put me in a situation where I am looking for death? It's better to live like an immortal here. ”

Ji Guang said excitedly: "The royal bureaucracy is greedy and cruel, not for the virtuous king, so if you want to wait until the state of Wu is strong and prosperous, wouldn't it be a fool's dream to avenge the doctor?" Ji Guang is not talented, if Mr. can help me win the country, I will promise Mr. to take revenge! ”

The soldiers knew Ji Guang's intentions: the last time he blocked his own war Chu Jihua, the main intention was not to stop the war Chu but to prevent the royal bureaucracy from forming a political alliance with himself, if this alliance was formed, then his Ji Guang's ambition to seize the country was basically hopeless. It's just a pity that the royal bureaucracy fell for Ji Guang's divisive plan. And in the current situation, Ji Guang wants to form an alliance with himself to deal with the royal bureaucracy.

The soldier pondered for a long time and was silent. If he doesn't combine with Ji Guang, the political wisdom of the royal bureaucracy is indeed inferior to Ji Guang. Then, how you stand in line is very important.

"I want to ask sir, in the face of the current situation, how should I deal with the current plan, can I start to seek the country's jihua?" Ji Guang asked.

Wu Yuan shook his head and said: "It's still too far, since ancient times, Mouguo doesn't care about these kinds: one is to master the government, set up the king, make him an ornament, find an opportunity to force him to Zen, and replace him himself." Second, after being able to grasp the military power, looking for opportunities to remove it, it is no different from usurping the throne, and it will be rejected by the ministers. You also have to be able to buy people's hearts, pick up the pieces, and secure your position. The third is assassination or murder. ”

Wu Yuan continued: "Have you ever thought about it, what means do you use to seek the country? Is it a siege of the royal palace with soldiers? You don't have a soldier, you don't have the right to fight; The son's name is Shangqing, but in fact, the government is also held by King Wu. Childe has no soldiers and no rights, so he has to choose the third option. ”

Ji Guang saw that his analysis was reasonable, and he was very impressed: "Please talk about the third method, as long as there is a way, there will be a direction, so as not to have no purpose." ”

"The hardest thing is also this assassination or murder. It has to meet many conditions, and the coefficient of change is also large, a slight difference, the opportunity will sometimes be fleeting, success or failure, the risk factor is extremely high. ”

Ji Guang thought that the king was physically strong, very brave, and the commander of the forbidden army was his son Qingji, who was even more of a bad star, with excellent martial arts and muscles like iron. Besides, the palace is heavily guarded and well guarded. The king's own martial arts are also a kind of protection for zuihou, even if you find a super killer, it is an impossible task, basically no one can have the opportunity to face the king's wingman with a weapon.

Ji Guang became disheartened for a while, and his eyes that had just flashed dimmed.

Seeing that Childe's face darkened a lot, Wu Yuan continued: "Warriors, opportunities, and stratagems are the main factors for success. Childe can think carefully and deal with these conditions one by one when they are ripe, and then he can start to act and succeed in one blow! ”

"What Mr. means is that first of all, we must find a high-level killer who can be qualified for this jihua, and meet the hard conditions for being able to kill the royal bureaucracy in martial arts; The second is to find or create an opportunity to do it; Zuihou is when this opportunity to do it is ripe, how to carry out this assassination is a hands-on step and the meaning of a good plan. Is it? Mr. ”

The soldier nodded yes.

Ji Guang saw that the soldiers were thorough in analysis and strict in logic, and he was already convinced. Besides, opportunities are found, not created by you, these can only be planned slowly, and you can't be in a hurry.

Turning the conversation, Gongzi said with concern: "Mr. has no salary, so he will rely on those thin fields to live, and I will send some things over from time to time in the future, I hope Mr. will not dislike it." ”

The soldier thanked him, looked at the middle of the day, called people in, served the village dishes in front of the case, went to the house, opened the wine given by the son, and watched the fine wine flow into the cup, which was already fragrant.

"Thank you Gongzi for your eyes on me, the soldiers are not talented, I am fortunate to have the love of the son, what will the son say in the future, my soldiers will do their best, I will salute the son!" Then drink it all.

Childe said politely: "Disturbing the house today, there is a lot of disturbance." I don't know if Mr. often goes to the capital city of Meri? ”

The soldier said that he often goes, he likes to make friends all over the world, and he will suffocate himself at home.

Childe began to talk eloquently through wine, and he hoped that the soldiers would change their roles as soon as possible and use them for themselves: "You know that Mr. Li, and he recommended Mr., and he also admires Mr. very much, in fact, you can have more interactions." He was also my protégé before he was left, and now I recommend him to be the official of the city clerk, and he is my confidant. Sometimes when my husband can't see me, he can go and look for the divorced. ”

Childe's mind was also very thoughtful, and after thinking for a while, he said: "As for the choice of warriors, Mr. will help me pay more attention, not only to have high martial arts, but also to have courage and knowledge." Since Mr. has made friends with the world's heroes, he can be carefully selected, and he can inform me if there is news. There is a lot of disturbance today, thank you for your hospitality, I should go, so as not to arouse suspicion. ”

After a few words of greeting, Ji Guang got up and made a speech to the soldiers, and several attendants followed Ji Guang and rode away on horseback.

The soldier sent the guest back to the house, and thought to himself for a while, in his own opinion, this Ji Guang can condescend to the courtesy, thoughtful, if he can achieve great things in the future, he will definitely be able to do something. In this way, it seems that he has to be bound to his chariot in order to have a way out, in order to have a day of revenge. He didn't report his conspiracy to King Wu that day because he wanted to leave a way back, and it seems that the decision at that time was very correct today.

The soldier decided to defect to the son Ji Guang to help Ji Guang seek the country, so he often wandered around, looking for hermit masters.

On this day, the soldiers heard that there was a genius young man living in a small village not far from Qingqiu. He likes to read, and he reads through ancient books on the art of war, and is very obsessed with the use of soldiers. He is not very old, but he has a ravine, and he is good at strategy. The soldier rode his horse and slipped to the village to see what was going on. I didn't have anyone to look for, and I didn't know the name of the young man, so I had to wander around. At this time, I saw a young man of about 20 walking on the side of the road. The soldier dismounted and asked, "May I ask my brother, there is a master in this village who likes to read military books, do you know who he is?" Can you take me to meet him? ”

The man looked at the soldier and was a little puzzled: "Do you dare to ask Mr. what is the matter with him?" ”

When the soldier saw that the young man seemed to know, he told him that he had come to visit the young man who liked the art of war.

The man shook his head: "It's just a vain name, don't take it seriously, sir, the person you said is named Sun Wu, and he is Xiao Ke." ”

The soldiers were overjoyed, and after examining it again, they saw that Sun Wu really had the image of a fairy wind and bones, and he liked it very much.

In order to try Sun Wu, the soldiers found an open place on the side of the road, used stones as the smallest unit of the army's array, and let Sun Wu demonstrate it on the spot. Sun Wu saw that the soldiers were extraordinary, and they were also masters in the middle, so he was unceremonious and showed his hand. Sure enough, I saw that his formation changed naturally, and the formation was similar. It seems that this person has a talent for the unpredictable.

The soldiers also tried it with the content of "The Art of War of the Eight Formations after the Wind", and Sun Wu also answered it fluently, explained it thoroughly, and was able to respond to it from beginning to end, and interspersed flexibly.

The soldier couldn't help but sigh: "It's really a genius in the world!" He had the heart to make friends, and revealed his identity to Sun Wu, saying that he was a soldier who fled to Wu.

The young man also knew some of the legends of the soldiers, what white-headed people crossed Shaoguan, Yuzhang people crossed the river, etc., so they also respected it very much, and the two became friends. Because Sun Wu's family is poor, the soldiers themselves have a rent of 100 acres of land, plus the gift of the son, and they are still passable, so they always bring some food and clothing, and they help Sun Wu a lot.
