Chen Shou paused for a moment, and then said: "Your Majesty, I think that in the current situation, if our country advances, Zhong Hui and other heroes may make up their minds and take refuge in one side, but there is a high probability that they will crawl at the feet of Sima Zhao again." ”

"At this time, if our town is quiet, Sima Zhao is not old, what is Sima Yan's talent, Sima Zhao must also be clear, and he will definitely not have time to be soft, but he will be anxious to oppress Zhonghui, so under the oppression at this time, he often refuses to give up, and at this time, the probability of taking refuge in our country is sixty percent."

"So delaying time, in the blink of an eye is another year, in terms of the information obtained so far, Sima Zhao's current situation, I am afraid that it will only be one or two years, with his old body, there is no possibility of sending troops in the winter and spring, so that by April and May next year, our army has a good spare time, strong soldiers and horses, food and equipment, and at this time there is no fear of attacking.

If it is in the summer and autumn of next year, Xiliangzhou and even the Western Regions will be captured by our army's partial division, Zhong Hui will be hesitant, then Sima Zhao is likely to send troops to suppress it, take advantage of this time, our army is waiting for the opportunity, once the troops are sent to win the first battle, as long as the loss is not large, Zhong Hui will surrender to our country. ”

"When the time comes, Your Majesty will send the general and most of the Wei army to fight a decisive battle in the wilderness, as long as you win, Sima Zhao's old age will not be able to bear it, and if you can't say it, you will have a life, and when the time comes, the world will be chaotic, Your Majesty can take it calmly, and the world will be in Your Majesty's pocket."

"Your Majesty plucked me from the end of the micro, and I was so deeply gracious, I dare not try my best to plan, but the ministers have shallow knowledge, only this is the only strategy, and I ask Your Majesty to forgive me."

After speaking, Chen Shou saluted again.

Yang Yi looked up and thought for a while, and smiled: "The town is quiet, the more urgent the more urgent, the more prosperous is the second, the snipe and the clam are the third, the first battle will be won to promote its refuge, and it will be defeated in one fell swoop to determine the overall situation...... The more I think about what you say, the more reasonable it is, but Qing Zhicai is like the talent he waited for back then, and it is indeed insightful. ”

Chen Shou's words reminded Yang Yi of the events of the Three Kingdoms back then.

After the defeat of Guandu, Yuan Shao died of illness, and Cao Cao attacked successively.

The generals of the Cao army all wanted to take advantage of the victory to break through Eryuan regardless of losses, but at this time, Guo Jia, who had previously advocated the northward advance, tried his best to disagree with the public and suggested that he withdraw his troops.

But although the Yuan family was defeated, but the Yuan family was in the land of the four states, the heritage was profound, Yuan Tan and Yuan were not in harmony, anxious to oppress, they were brothers, and they would definitely fight together, at that time, it was defeated, Cao Cao also suffered heavy losses, and after this war, he would have to recuperate for a few more years, and if the use of troops was suspended, they would break out into internal strife.

Guo Jia suggested that Cao Cao pretend to attack Liu Biao in the south "to wait for his changes".

Sure enough, as soon as Cao Jun returned to Xudu, the news of Yuan Jun's change had already come.

Cao Cao took the opportunity to return to the army and go north, and defeated Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang, because of Guo Jia's clever plan, this battle was won easily and smoothly, with very little loss and little loss of strength, and finally let the Cao family obtain the foundation of the hegemony in the north.

At this time, it is the same, the more urgent the urgent, the more abundant the slow, there is no absolute strength, whoever oppresses Zhong Hui first often forces Zhong Hui to switch to one side.

Thinking of this, Yang Yi had already made up his mind and said, "I originally wanted to send someone to lobby Zhonghui, but do you still need this situation?" ”

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that lobbying is still necessary, send someone to lobby, and lure him with the high lord's kindness, so that Zhong Hui can determine our minds, and come to Fengyuan left and right, if no one is sent, it will make him suspicious in his heart, and he can't be afraid."

At this time, Chen Shou said with a smile: "Zhong will be a person, ambitious and talented, although he has the power of a hero, but he does not have the mind of an ambitious, just lobby without being anxious, just let him know our intentions." ”

Saying this, Yang Yi nodded and said, "Qing even thought of this layer, and it was thoughtful." ”

The wise man seeks things, the wise man does things, and the academy cultivates it, so it can only cultivate the wise man, and the wise man still depends on his talent.

Three days after Tao Ji was rescued, Sun Hao searched the surroundings of Jianye, but he couldn't find it, so he brazenly issued an order.

"Guancangwu Tao clan, is the remnants of the Shi clan, conspiracy to secede, collusion with bandits, many crimes, I originally intended to make them repent, but under the abundance, the thief has no intention of repenting, behind the resentment, and intends to assassinate me, now and the crime of exterminating the clan, I am not a person who loves to kill, in addition to the twelve people of the Tao clan, those who correspond with the Tao family, if they abandon it, they will cite the fugitive Tao Ji's evil deeds, it can still be forgiven, otherwise if it is verified, it will be connected by the Tao family, and it will be so twelve people, beheaded and abandoned the city."

Then he issued an order to the people: "Anyone who reports the whereabouts of the fugitive Tao Ji will be rewarded with a thousand gold, given an official position of a thousand stones, and rewarded with a knight." ”

In Jianye City, Tao Ji's wife and concubines and concubines were beheaded in public, and their bodies were thrown out of the city, and their heads were hung high in the square.

A Taoist temple on the outskirts of the city.

Not close to the city, there is a mountain again, it is not a fertile field, the area is naturally very large, there are pine and green bamboo planted around, it is very quiet, a fine house is located in it, the cedar furniture of all colors inside, the window is bright and clean, spotless, there is a picture of three clear pictures hanging in the middle.

A Taoist boy poured tea for Zhuge Song and retreated respectfully.

Zhuge Song drank tea, looked at the secret report sent back from the eyeliner in his hand, and secretly sighed that this King Wu also has the posture of a hero, and his methods are ruthless, and he kills people, which is really simple.

It's just that now the Dao vein has decided Allah, so Zhuge Song smiled, tore the secret report in his hand, threw it into the brazier on the side, and gradually burned into ashes.

For hundreds of years, the Tao family, which can even be called one of the several major clans in Wu State, has been greatly injured in this way, and if it is calculated, almost half of the clansmen on the bright side have been killed.

When the rulers no longer care about their faces and tear their faces, the so-called family is just a chess piece in the hands of the rulers, at the mercy of pinching.

Zhuge Song is also from a family, and his identity is a person outside the party, and all those involved in this matter were sent away, so naturally there is not much danger, but he still can't help but be a little afraid of these real rulers.

This time rescued Tao Ji, smoothly connected with Yan Han, many children of the outer sect were allowed to enter the Jinyi Guard, it is said that the real person in charge of the sect is very appreciative, and will reward a few people to enter the inner door.

"Senior brother, our people have already connected with Jinyiwei again." There was a sound of footsteps outside, and while he was talking, Lu Su had already stepped in.

Zhuge Song nodded and asked, "What do they say?" ”

"A special person has been sent over, and when the person arrives, he will contact us." The junior brother replied.

Zhuge Song smiled slightly: "This is not at ease with us, I'm afraid it's a trap, but if we don't be so cautious, I'm afraid it's not at ease, it's up to us." ”

"Senior brother, is Tao Yuanjun's condition okay?" The junior brother was very concerned about this matter: "The rest of the Tao family was slaughtered, he has already learned about it, right?" Could something happen? ”

"This is the real head of the family, and his heart is also amazing, although he is sad, he understands the situation very well and does not do anything wrong.

With such a temperament, it is no wonder that he can bring the Tao family back and operate in the Wu country for so many years, if it were not for the king of Wu who accidentally tore his face and suddenly attacked the Tao family, the Tao family may not be so miserable. ”

It's just a sigh, Zhuge Song doesn't care too much.

"A few days ago, I have personally gone to see Tao Lao Envoy, the hiding place is readily available, and the location is extremely hidden, as long as there is no traitor, King Wu's people can't find it there. I love Chinese.com

There is also Huang Zuoping to accompany him, talking about poetry and books, playing chess...... I can endure it for some time.

It's just that if you want to evacuate, it's still a little difficult in the past few days, so you can only wait for the news from the Jinyi guards over there to discuss it. ”

Sun Hao was indeed very resentful of Tao Ji's rescue, but after searching for half a month, there was no news, and it was impossible for any organization to search for such a fruitless long-term nervous search.

The search has not found anyone for half a month, and it is approaching the New Year, and the city is no longer very nervous.

At the city gate, the search and restrictions on caravans and pedestrians were also lightened a lot, and it was impossible for a fugitive to ruin the normal order and trade of Jianye City.

This is not to mention other states and counties, the most important thing is that Tao Ji has already appeared in the Han Kingdom, which made King Wu angry again, but at this time, he can't turn his face with Yan Han, he can only kill people to vent his anger, and the search in various places is also lax.

After the New Year, there were no inspections, and trade between the two countries returned to normal.

Wuchang Town, when Sun Quan built the capital here, this is also an important town of Wu State, after the New Year, the weather is a little warmer, on the street, pedestrians gradually increased.

An ordinary caravan came from the dock towards Wuchang.

More than 20 mule carts were loaded with goods, and dozens of people were guarding, and it didn't seem to be a weak caravan.

The caravan marched to the city gate and was stopped by the Wu sergeants.

"Which caravan are you? Present the paperwork and be inspected. The little official said to the caravan leader.

The team leader was a middle-aged man, a sleek man, who hurriedly stuffed some coins over, and said at the same time: "Master, this is the Zhuge family's caravan, this is an urgent material collected from the Han Kingdom, and some of them are tributes." ”

"You guys, go over and have a look." Hearing the Zhuge family and hearing the tribute, the doorman received the coins and no longer made it difficult, but the inspection that should be done was still to go through the motions.

The doorman spoke to a few men, and some of the soldiers walked over and checked the carriage.

"Lingjun, it's all goods."

"Well, it seems that you are really businessmen, okay, go over." The doorman rushed to collect the money, and saw that the caravan belonged to the national warrior clan, so he naturally let it go, and the caravan leader waved his hand.

The caravan slowly passed through the city, until it was one mile south of the city gate, and the middle-aged man who led the caravan let out a long breath and ordered: "It doesn't matter here, speed up." ”

"No." The sound of wheels and hooves rang out, but the voices fell silent.

This caravan was like a normal caravan, selling its goods along the way, and finally turned south after selling the goods in Jianye.

This is the route that caravans often travel today, buying goods from Yan and Han, then selling them in Wu, and then going to Jiaozhou to buy grain and transport it to Han.

For this reason, Yan Han built the Nanzhong official road early, which can run two large cars in parallel, and even four cars can go with each other in a smooth place.

It wasn't until the grain was purchased, after passing Jiaozhou, and entering the territory of Yanhan, that another month had passed, and after entering the Yanhan checkpoint, the caravan leader ordered: "Suspend for a while and repair in situ." ”

After the middle-aged man who led the team turned over from his horse, he beckoned a few people and walked towards a secluded place.

"Tao Yuanjun, and Mr. Huang, I have offended along the way, please forgive me." In this team, most of them are ordinary guys, both Han and Wu, and there is Jinyiwei, and the middle-aged man who leads the team is a soldier in Jinyiwei, but at this time, he said respectfully to an old guy in the caravan, and the middle-aged man next to the old guy looked weak, nominally and the old guy are father and son.

This old man is indeed old, and he doesn't work much on the road, but he is a guide, specially invited from Jianye, and also invited his son.

"This time, thanks to you, the old man was able to pick up a life, what offense is not offended, it is the old man who should thank you."

Tao Ji is naturally very grateful to the group of people who saved his life, if it weren't for their help, he would have died with his wife and concubine.

At this time, the Jinyi guard bowed his hand and said: "I just did my part, and I'm sorry for not being able to rescue the others......"

Listening to the mention of those who were killed, even if the pain had been healed, a trace of sadness still appeared on Tao Ji's face.

"It's just that my Tao family is not secretive, too ostentatious, thanks to the rescue, it's luck, others ...... Alas, perhaps it was fate as it should be. ”

After sighing, a trace of murderous intent appeared in Tao Ji's eyes: "But my Tao family will not bleed in vain." ”

Speaking of which, let's stop talking, now is not the time to retaliate, it still depends on the strategy of the Yan Han and how the Han lord is today.

"Tao Lao doesn't have to be sad, as long as there are still people, I am not afraid of no chance, and inside and outside, we have already spread our eyeliners, if you need help in the future, please contact us, the above has explained, and will definitely help the Tao family with all their might."

"Thank you." At this time, Tao Ji was also a salute, but he thanked him, although he knew that there was an order from above, but how to do it was up to the people who did the work to control the proportions.

There are also those Taoist priests, although they know that the other party helps them, they must have a plan, but compared with the grace of saving lives, these are not important, although the Tao family has suffered heavy losses, but as long as they are there, then most of the strength still exists, but they have lost some floating wealth.

People are the most important, mainly the loss of manpower in Jianye, such as other places, all hidden early, the cangwu Tao family, but also in time to abandon money and fields, etc., go directly to the Han Kingdom.

Presumably now that he has settled in the Han Kingdom, the Cangwu Tao clan may change to another county in the future.

At this time, there was a sound of horses' hooves, from far and near.

The Jinyi guards beside Tao Ji listened for a moment at this time, and said in a low voice: "Old Envoy Tao, this is the army of our country to pick up, and then they will escort you to Nanzhong, and the rest of the aftermath will be handled by me, and Mr. Huang, you can walk with Old Envoy Tao." ”

Tao Ji thanked him again, and Huang Meng also thanked him at this time, and finally set foot on the land of the Han Kingdom, and since then he has been a Yan Han person, and he is a little emotional.

Listening to the whispered reminder in his ear, Tao Ji looked at the Yanhan official road at this time, only to see that after a burst of dust, dozens of horses galloped in front of him, and these dozens of horses were a group of people wearing armor, all wearing armor.
