Chapter 360: The Outspoken Strategist
Outside Xiri City, the entire 300,000 Shura army is undergoing rigorous military training every day.
The earth-shattering shouts and the morale of the momentum like a rainbow made the defenders of the imperial court who were fifty miles away not eat and sleep well.
In the old mansion of the Fan family in the old city, a group of people sat around the stone table, sipping tea and eating snacks.
"Old Fan, do you think we should take action immediately and cooperate with the outside action?" Lao Zhu picked up the teacup and asked with a sip.
"No, stand still. Unless we receive definite information, the military department will no longer activate Fengming. As long as we don't get the news, we can't move. ”
"Lao Zhu, are you too cautious. Now it's General Qin Fang who is sitting here, do you think Feng Ming's qualifications and abilities can surpass him? ”
"Others may not be able to, but Feng Ming can definitely do it. It's not been a day or two since we met Qin Fang. If he had the ability, he would have taken possession of our city of Siri long ago. But did he occupy it?
Compared to other cities on the border, we are the closest city to the Imperial Court. It's not so much that it belongs to the Shura Kingdom, but it is more like it belongs to the imperial court.
We only know now that there are 300,000 Shura troops on the other side, and we don't know anything about the rest of the situation. I still remember the last war!
Since ancient times, there have been many battles in which less has won more, and I did not expect that I would be able to experience one for myself on that day. I think you will never forget it! ”
Lao Zhu stopped talking, and Fan Biao's words calmed his heart. This is indeed not the time to act.
In the City Lord's Mansion, Qin Fang was in the courtyard in front of the study, fisting vigorously.
When he finished punching a set, the military advisor who had been waiting on the side said to him with a smile: "The general's boxing skills are getting more and more peaked. I can tell from your boxing skills that you are quite sure about this fight. ”
"The military advisor has won the award, so you have been waiting for a long time. Let's report on the situation! Qin Fang said while wiping his sweat with a towel.
"Yes, General.
As you expected, those people all ran to Fan Biao. According to your instructions, don't startle the snake, and the lowly post did not install eyeliner in Fan Biao's old mansion. ”
"Now the morale of the Shura people is high, and the morale of our army is low. The external troubles are already serious, and if the internal troubles are allowed to germinate again, there is no need to fight this battle, and the defeat of our army is already doomed. ”
"General, do you mean to send troops to hunt them all down and arrest them all now?"
"Nope! Just staring. They haven't done anything now, and if we do it, it will not only make them bite back, but it will also make those who had been obedient to us rise up against them. ”
"What the general said is that the lowly knows what to do."
"Father! Yo! The military advisor is also here! That's right, there's something I want to discuss with my father, and the military advisor will help you figure it up! Qin Jie walked in from the outer courtyard with a smile and said.
"Jer, what makes you so happy! Did you think of a good way to break the enemy? "Regardless of whether Qin Jie has great wisdom or not, in his heart, his son will always be the best.
"Father, it's not about it. Instead, I want you to help me propose. Qin Jie's rare face flushed.
"Propose?" Qin Fang and the military advisor exclaimed in unison.
"Yes! Propose. The child has been with Fan Biao's daughter for a while, and thinks she is a good woman who can be my wife. Don't you want me to get married soon, too? ”
"Jer, my father is very happy to hear the news. But these are extraordinary times, and it's not appropriate for you to bring up this matter. The war on the front line is tight, if your father agrees to your request, what do you want the soldiers of the three armed forces to think? What do the Shura people think? ”
Qin Jie's smiling face froze suddenly, and he quickly became angry. He yelled and shouted, "Father, why is it not the time? I married Fan Biao's daughter, then Fan Biao became my father-in-law, your in-laws.
Once it becomes a family, Fan Biao has to think about his daughter even if he doesn't think about himself! Isn't it a good thing for us to have this concern? ”
The military advisor smiled bitterly and did not speak. This is the general's family affairs, even if there is business implied in it, but it is really not suitable for himself to speak.
Qin Fang originally wanted to beat Qin Jie violently, but what Qin Jie said was not unreasonable. Isn't the current self worried about a backyard fire? As long as Fan Biao becomes his own person, won't this internal trouble disappear without having to do it himself?
He knows his father Qin Jie very well, and he knows that his current father is already a little moved by his words. So, he added another fire and said, "Father, Fan Biao is not just the city lord of Xiri City!" I learned from Lan Lan that Fan Biao is also the grandson of the current prime minister of the Shura Kingdom.
As long as I marry Lan Lan, this Shura army will not embarrass us anymore for the sake of the prime minister's face. In this case, won't the fighting on the front line tend to ease? ”
This news was tantamount to a bombshell, and Qin Fang and the military advisor glanced at each other very tacitly.
If what Qin Jie said is true, it is indeed good news for the tight war on the front line, but how should he gain a foothold in the imperial court in the future?
As far as Gong Yu is concerned, one of the two sides is the general of the imperial court, and the other is the prime minister of the Shura Kingdom. If the two sides go to war in the future, will they fight or not?
Privately, if they get married, their generation will be a generation lower in front of Prime Minister Shura. If he is an elder and orders himself to do things, will he do it or not?
"Strategist, what do you think?" Qin Fang, who was in a difficult situation, had to ask for help from the number one think tank around him.
"General, for now, I don't think you can agree to the Major General's request."
"Strategist, what do you mean by that? If you don't help me, forget it, how can you dismantle my platform! It's in vain that I respect you so much! Qin Jie originally thought that the military advisor would help him speak, but he didn't think that he would oppose him as soon as he came up.
"Shut up! Let the military advisor continue. ”
"General, you are now the supreme commander of Xiri City and the supreme commander-in-chief of the front. Once you have an in-law relationship with the Shura, it will not only make your soldiers suspicious of you, but also make the elders of the military department suspicious of you.
In this battle, if you win, it's okay, you will be at most promoted and secretly surrendered when you go back, and all the rights in your hands will be handed over. If you are defeated, the elders of the military department will not be soft on you, and will directly punish you with capital punishment.
He believed that in the face of major rights and wrongs, generals must uphold the heart of justice and must not be soft-hearted. Even to his own son, he only sees him as an ordinary soldier.
I know that what I said today will make the general feel uncomfortable after hearing it, and it will make the major general have a grudge against me. But even if I had to do it again, I would still say the above.
This is my duty as a military advisor, and I can't watch the general fall into a dangerous situation, let alone a predicament that I can't get out of. ”
