Section 31 "Yu Zhaobin? ”
Wu Ming muttered and couldn't help frowning. If Zuo Ying hadn't pulled him and Megie together to talk about things, he would have almost forgotten about being such a person. Three years ago, Guangyang fell, this guy was not angry with the escorted soldiers, and he acted against Mei Ji, leading more than a dozen captives to openly resist, Wu Ming met at the right time and bumped into this scene. He didn't want to be troubled, but Jian Feiyang personally came to beg for mercy, and Wu Ming couldn't save Jian Feiyang's face, so he took over the matter in the name of the Guards Battalion.
So much so that when he returned to Nanning, he was greatly embarrassed in front of Zhu Yuqing. So he still has some impressions of this. However, listening to Jian Feiyang, this Yu Zhaobin is Sima Shang's personal captain, does he dare to have any personal relationship with Mei Ji?
Zuo Ying turned his head, saw Wu Ming's thoughtful appearance, and smiled slightly: "I didn't know the true relationship between these two people at first. Moreover, at the beginning, Meggie did not cooperate, except for crying in a daze. Even when the prime minister proposed to let her do the internal response, she ignored it. ”
Yes, it is better to mourn than to die. Wu Ming sighed secretly, he had a deep understanding of this state of mind. Four years ago, he returned from the southern expedition, but He Yi disappeared. Although he doesn't like to drink, he is often so drunk that he almost collapses. Later, it was the relief of Yang Xiong, Xiaoqing and others that regained their strength.
Thinking of this, he became even more interested, and hurriedly asked, "What about later?" Why did Maggie say yes again? ”
Zuo Ying sighed and said, "After Yu Zhaobin was surrendered, he still came to the baggage camp every day to see Mei Ji. The meaning of his concern is overflowing, and this concern has gone beyond the scope of a subordinate to the master mother. I was sitting in a baggage camp at the time, so I was naturally suspicious. ”
Wu Ming also sighed in his heart, and suddenly understood. The army clearly stipulates that once surrendered, unless the most heinous enemy leader, the rest of the soldiers and generals would be given preferential treatment. There is a world of difference between the status of a pawn and a sinner. After all, the soldiers are generally veterans, and in the war, after all, these veterans have to work hard, so the treatment of the soldiers is very good. Jian Feiyang is an obvious example. Of course, he now has to be named a general of the five ranks, and he has a heavy army, which is not unrelated to his meritorious dedication to the city. The most important thing is that he has Wu Ming's trust, otherwise, it would not be possible to mix so well.
Yu Zhaobin used to be Sima Shang's personal army captain, and his status was equivalent to Jian Feiyang. Surrendered, although there was no surrender like Jian Feiyang, but the treatment was definitely much better than that of a sinner, as can be seen from the fact that he was awarded the title of Seventh Rank Lieutenant. However, Mei Ji was Sima Shang's woman before her death, and she was a famous woman. With Yu Zhaobin's status at that time, even if he wanted to save Mei Ji, he was probably out of his power.
Sure enough, Zuo Ying smiled and continued, "General Yu asked me to release Mei Ji, and said that he was willing to use his official position in exchange for her freedom. ”
Don't think about it, Wu Ming already knew the result, and asked rhetorically: "So, you didn't agree?" ”
Zuo Ying looked at Wu Ming's slightly angry face, spread his hands and said: "Lord Wu, don't look at me like this, even if I want to agree, I have to agree to the prime minister, after all, Mei Ji is too famous." The two words behind the red face are called calamity. He Yu Zhaobin has not yet had the ability to withstand the troubled waters. ”
After a pause, he continued, "However, I made a condition at the time. Once the Southern Han Dynasty recovered China and the West, Mei Ji would be free, and the imperial court would even promise to hold a wedding for them. ”
"So, Maggie agreed to be your dead room? But do you know how slim her chances of survival are? ”
Zuo Ying let out a sigh of relief, and a faint layer of sadness hung on his face: "No matter how slim it is, the two of them are happy, at least they can still care about each other, and there is hope." It's better than living the walking dead all the time. ”
After going through so many things, Wu Ming is no longer a chick who knows nothing about emotions. He also understands now that Zuo Ying's change in his mentality is mainly due to resentment that he didn't protect He Yi well. Looking at the sadness on his face, he didn't say much.
There is nothing to say either.
The two were silent for a while.
Although it was autumn, the temperature of the Tsushima grassland was still very mild, but Wu Ming felt like a layer of ice all over his body. The prime minister's scheming is really terrible, and every step is a calculation. I'm afraid that even if he is his son-in-law, he is in his calculations. After a while, he couldn't hold back after all, and continued to ask: "But even if Mei Ji agrees to die, and then use her body as a weapon at a critical moment to provoke the conflict between the two Liao brothers." But it is unlikely that the two will be in civil strife. Because although the Liao brothers are nominally the leaders of the army, the real power is the governors who support them. Jiang Huan Wei Lin and the like are not stupid. ”
He paused, and finally concluded, "In other words, Meggie is at most a dislike between his two brothers." ”
Zuo Ying stretched his waist in the wheelchair and smiled slightly: "There is a gap!" Lord Wu, that's right, what I want is that they have a dislike. "He was originally in a long figure, but at this time, he really has a little bit of confidence in his control. No one could have imagined that he would be a disability. Wu Ming looked at it, and sighed again in his heart.
The smile on Zuo Ying's face faded, and a thick hatred crept up. He sneered suddenly: "With Liao Sheng's evil ghost nature, once you get Mei Ji." If Liao Shi wants to go back, it will be difficult to climb to the sky. And Liao Shi is a fiery temper, and he definitely can't swallow this breath. Liao Shi suffered such a big loss, and it is very likely that he will return to the market immediately. ”
Speaking of this, he turned his head and stared at Wu Ming and said, "In this way, with our more than 10,000 elites facing Liao Sheng's 20,000 cavalry, it will naturally be much easier." ”
Wu Ming thought for a while, shook his head and said: "I'm afraid things are not as easy as you think, this time we can break Liao Shi's 25,000 elite horses, in addition to being well-equipped, the most important thing is to catch the other party off guard, if the two sides really form a hedge, as General Zuo Wu said, I'm afraid even if it wins, it will be a miserable victory." And now that Liao Sheng knows the combat strength of our team, he will definitely be more careful, and it is absolutely impossible to ambush and sneak attack. If you design Liao Shiqi to leave, Liao Sheng will be a turtle with a shrunken head, not to mention a sneak attack, I'm afraid they won't even have the courage to come out for a decisive battle, how easy is it to hit the enemy again? ”
Zuo Ying high-fived and smiled: "That's right, I have done so much, just to make them shrink turtles." ”
"Oh, why is that?"
The strategy set by Zuo Ying and the prime minister can be said to be closely linked, which makes people unguardable. But Wu Ming has now refined the military book for several years, and he is also familiar with marching formations, intrigues and tricks. Although the strategies set by Zuo Ying and Prime Minister in the early stage were a little different from what he expected, they could at least guess a rough idea. But Zuo Ying's words were very unexpected to him, and he was puzzled, so he naturally asked.
Seeing that Wu Ming, who had been there all the time, finally had some doubts on his face, Zuo Ying couldn't help but feel a little proud in his heart, he didn't answer Wu Ming's question, but stared at the bright moon in the air and said: "Lord Wu, this month is clear and clear, but it is a good season to talk about the world. Would you like to hear a story from me? ”
Naturally, he didn't want to tell any story, but he probably still wanted to tell him the reason. However, hearing Zuo Ying say this, he became interested instead, and smiled: "Zuo Changshi, please speak." ”
Zuo Ying raised the fireworks that had been launched just now, put it in front of his eyes and looked at it, "Lord Wu, you must know this thing." ”
The fireworks weren't that special, and they only went off, but the wrapped paper tube was a cubit long. When it was launched just now, it was even more noisy, and in the Tsushima grassland of this Ma Pingchuan, I am afraid that the movement can be seen within a radius of dozens of miles. But no matter how loud it is, it's just a firework after all. Thinking of this, he smiled slightly: "Lord Changshi, do you want me to know how Mei Ji learned this news?" What if she doesn't see it? ”
Zuo Ying was taken aback, Wu Ming could even think of this subtlety, and he could be regarded as cautious. The prime minister has always been extremely accurate in looking at people and employing people, and this time let Wu Ming lead an army to fight alone, and placed great hopes on the middle road, which seems to make some sense. But that's not what he's going to say. He smiled and said, "This can be taken into account by Lord Wu, and the prime minister will naturally take it into account." Even if Mei Ji didn't see it, there were so many Chinese and Western soldiers, wouldn't it be enough to install one or two more internal soldiers? What I'm going to talk about now is not this, but an interesting incident during the Lantern Festival on the Yuan Festival. ”
This was a big surprise to Wu Ming, Wu Ming thought that even if Zuo Ying was talking nonsense, he would have to be involved in the war. I didn't expect him to really talk about the Shangyuan Festival from fireworks. Does this kid really want to tell himself interesting stories about fireworks during the Lantern Festival? Then tonight's leisure is not shallow. However, Zuo Ying's interest was quite high, and he couldn't easily arouse the interest of others, so he had to smile and say: "Oh, what interesting things did Lord Changshi encounter during the Lantern Festival?" Why don't you tell us about it? ”
Wu Ming's suspicion, although it was well concealed, Zuo Ying still caught it, and he smiled and didn't say much. Clearing his throat, he continued: "The Shangyuan Festival is on the fifteenth day of the first month, also known as the Lantern Festival, and this festival can be passed down from ancient times. Because the ancients called the night 'night', and the fifteenth day of the first lunar month is the first full moon night, it is also called 'Lantern Festival'. ”
Wu Ming couldn't cry or laugh a little, this kid was really energetic, and he was getting farther and farther. However, Zuo Ying now has all kinds of allusions at his fingertips, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is rich in five cars, which is naturally inseparable from his usual hard work. The prime minister can let him take on the role of prime minister, but not only does he have a lot of ideas, but now he does have some dry goods in his stomach. He nodded and said, "Of course, I know this. ”
Zuo Ying turned his head, and suddenly said mysteriously: "Lord Wu knows that in ancient times, there was also a powerful dynasty on this land, and its name was also Han. ”
