…
Qin Tian was in a state of flux at the moment in the palace describing the various scenes after occupying Yizhou, but at this moment, the Kyushu Chamber of Commerce encountered a dilemma.
When Yunguo attacked Xuchang City once, the Kyushu Chamber of Commerce also assisted Zhao Kuo and Pang Quan in strategizing, who knew that Yunguo had already expected it, and defeated the troops of Yuguo and Pear Country to lose their armor, conquered the entire Xuchang County overnight, and came towards Runan.
At this moment, the two countries of Yuguo and Pear have been subjected to layers of exploitation by the Kyushu Chamber of Commerce for nearly a year, even if the number of horseshoe gold is small, there is a lot of accumulation.
What's more, coupled with the years of fighting, because the Kyushu Chamber of Commerce canceled the employment of the army, their army has been continuously damaged for several months, and thousands of injuries have been lost at every turn, and the front line has been transported to Jingzhou by the Kyushu Chamber of Commerce because of the frenzy of the fighting population in the past few months, enjoying peace.
If they didn't leave, every time the siege turned back to the local county guard, they would be terrified all day long, preventing themselves from being suddenly turned into meat cakes by catapults.
Qingzhuang is only in the hinterland of the Three Kingdoms, and now that the Yunguo has broken through Xuchang, the hinterland of the imperial country is exposed to the sight of the Yunguo, and the people are panicked, for fear that they will be involved in the war, or worried that their children and men will be captured as strong men, so they have fled the country.
Of course, although Zhenguo's policy order is good, but all parts of the world have imitated it after hearing about Zhenguo's reclamation order, but the other party's reclamation order is different, and the effect is much less than that of Shangzhenguo, which is in Jingzhou, where the scholar clan is scarce, and many countries are still using the well field system, so the original reclamation order has been changed a lot.
However, for those people, it is very good to get some benefits, so they did not all go to Zhenguo, only six layers of the population poured into Jingzhou, and the rest of the forty percent ran to various places, after all, it is better to leave their hometowns, where to have relatives and friends, it is better than those who are not familiar with Jingzhou.
Now that Yunguo has defeated Chen Liu, he has attacked a county town on the border of Runan at night, and this county town has been defended for a long time, but fortunately, Yunguo's attack is not strong.
At this moment, Yuan Chen was out of shape and disputed in front of the Kyushu Chamber of Commerce.
Yuan Chen really couldn't keep calm, the Kyushu Chamber of Commerce was actually defeated! Actually defeated! But the consequence is to return the amount and promise to send Xuchang back.
After Yuan Chen learned of the promise of the fire, he said to the fire with a little calmness: "The plan you provided failed, do you know how much the loss of my imperial kingdom is?" Let's not talk about the huge loss of displaced people, let's talk about the money and grain in Chenliu County and its important strategic location, as well as the merchants, money, grain, and population lost because of the Yun Guo's soldiers coming to Runan, not to mention that the amount is all returned, even ten times it is not enough to compensate for my loss. ”
When he got angry, he said calmly: "Victory or defeat is a common thing in soldiers, and my Kyushu Chamber of Commerce does not guarantee that every plan will succeed, and besides, this time I only charge you 3,000 gold, which is not worth revealing too much energy." In addition, the fundamental reason for the failure of this strategy is that the opponent's soldiers are very fast, and take advantage of the time it takes to get from Runan City to Xuchang, and strike first, this is your own reason, who told you not to do it earlier? Who made your soldiers slack? ”
The fire crackled and said a lot of truths and analyzed the reasons for its failure, which made Yuan Chen look at the fire with a somewhat gloomy face.
Early? Neglect?
Just after getting the news of Yunguo, the front line rushed back, and he immediately came to the Kyushu Chamber of Commerce in the hope that Zhao Kuo could go out, probably Zhao Kuo's campaign for several months, a little tired, so he did not agree to go out just to conspire, after getting it, he quickly sent someone back to Xuchang.
But who would have thought that it was still a step late, Yunguo seemed to have been brewing for a long time, starting from the border of Yunguo to capturing Xuchang in one go, as if it had been rehearsed many times.
At this point, it is useless for Yuan Chen to be angry, and the most important thing now is to ease the relationship between the Kyushu Chamber of Commerce.
In an instant, Yuan Chen calmed down, and said to the fire: "It's useless to say this now, now Yunguo has mobilized troops to the border of Shouchun on a large scale, and intends to move troops against Shouchun, so Li Yi has already gone back with Qi Yin, and I also got the news that Xu Zhi is sitting in Xuchang, we have top strategists on our side, and the other party is strong, and the other party is strong, my imperial country is already like the twilight West Mountain, unless a peerless strategist can appear and turn the tide, there is no cure." ”
He was embarrassed all of a sudden, and he only knew a few people in Jingzhou, and the only peerless one was just a Dian Wei, or a general, and he couldn't see that he couldn't lead the army, but he was a peerless strategist......
Yuan Chen seemed to see the embarrassment of going wrong, frowned and said, "The Kyushu Chamber of Commerce won't have a peerless strategist, right, are you still worried that I am short of money?" The matter of horseshoe gold is easy to discuss, and I am angry with the monarch of the pear country, as long as we can pass this crisis, at any cost. ”
Misfire frowned, and his mouth was a little hesitant to say something......
Yuan Chen recalled it at this time, it was possible that he was a eunuch, if it was the five great powers, it was impossible for them to have no peerless strategists, even if the peerless strategists were rumored.
At this moment, a clear voice came, and a white-clothed gentleman, holding a black feather fan, looked calm and elegant.
"Who said that the Kyushu Chamber of Commerce doesn't have peerless strategists?"
The white-clothed gentleman walked to the door of the Kyushu shop with a confident and calm tone, and said elegantly.
was stunned, looking up and down at the white-clothed gentleman, a little at a loss.
And Yuan Chen looked at the white-clothed scholar suspiciously, and said, "This is ......"
The white-clothed man flicked his sleeves and said slightly to the fire: "I've seen the commander." Then he took out a token from his bosom, lit it up, and said, "I am the Cabinet Military Division, Ling He." I was ordered by the king to help you, although you hired me to the imperial kingdom as a minister, the cloud country has a master, and I cannot be defeated. ”
Ling He had been active in the Central Plains since a few months ago, and for dozens of days he had been spotting another army with the same bandit style wandering around the Central Plains.
A few days ago, I used the intelligence system of the shadow attack to learn that the other party had a plan for Yun Guo.
Seeing that the balance of the Three Kingdoms had been broken, Ling He immediately rushed to Runan City, and happened to meet Yuan Chen to question and go wrong, so he naturally spoke up to solve the siege.
When he heard that Ling He's cabinet military advisor was almost frightened, he wiped his cold sweat and introduced to Yuan Chen: "This is the latest peerless strategist sent over, if you want to win, then you must hire him as the prime minister, and it will only cost 100 horseshoe gold a day, and nothing will cost you to hire him for a month?" However, to be clear in advance, this is not free. ”
Yuan Chen looked at Ling He, who was only about 33 years old, with some suspicion, but after thinking about the quality and reputation of the Kyushu Chamber of Commerce, Yuan Chen also believed it.
Just as he was about to agree, Ling He said: "With one condition, if I think of a plan, I will naturally make a plan, and it can't hinder my freedom of action." Make a contract if you agree, so that you don't regret it when you get it. ”
Yuan Chen immediately believed in the three points again, the peerless strategist should have some strange temper, but at the same time, he also raised a question, saying: "What if you don't want to conspire at the critical moment of my country's survival?" ”
Ling He glanced at Yuan Chen with his eyes, and lightly spit out a few words: "I have a bottom line." ”
Yuan Chen reluctantly agreed, and immediately returned the 3,000 gold he had just gotten to the fire.
There is also a limit to the fire, for the Imperial Kingdom, the Pear Country, the horseshoe gold is a little less, for the Cloud Kingdom is a little more, sometimes you don't need money, the demise of the Imperial Kingdom is sooner or later, now it's just a delay for a while.
It's just that what makes the fire a little worried is whether the Pear Kingdom will suddenly make peace with the Yun Kingdom, so that the Imperial Kingdom will suffer alone, if things come to this point, the Kyushu Chamber of Commerce will be unable to recover even if it is powerful.
In fact, Li Wei also thought about this problem, but in the end it was abandoned, because of four words: lips and teeth are cold!
Pear Wei is not mediocre, knowing this shallow truth, now the pear country and the cloud country are in the same situation, not to mention whether they can stop the war and make peace, even if they can, it is only the void and the snake of the cloud country, and after the imperial country is eaten, it will inevitably be attacked in two ways and eat the pear country.
The purpose of the cloud country is normal, its purpose is nothing more than to include the entire Central Plains in the bag, although the cloud country was once weak, but he is different from the Zhen country, it has a long history, as well as a rich heritage, as well as the connections accumulated by the ancestors, only need to be wise now, ascend a call, naturally respond to a hundred calls, plus today's cloud country is said to be strong, and the number of talents who have come to the country is naturally increased.
The Central Plains, the land of the Three Jin Dynasty, was occupied by the Wei State, the Korean State, and the Zhao State in history, and the Three Jin Dynasty were strong, densely populated, and the heavens and the earth were outstanding, and how many outstanding heroes came from the Central Plains.
And Yuan Chen also saw this, and he was not worried about Li Wei's position at all, he was leading the way for Ling He at the moment, without the slightest shelf of a superior person, but a professional guide, shushing the cold and asking for warmth, and on the other hand, he also knocked on the side to test whether Ling He had real talent and real learning.
And Ling He's frank and extraordinary conversation in the face of Yuan Chen's temptation along the way made Yuan Chen have to pay attention to it, Yuan Chen could see that the Kyushu Chamber of Commerce was sincere in wanting to help him, and it was estimated that Yunguo would need 100,000 horseshoe gold a month to hire, and he was more and more grateful to the fire.
After entering the palace, Yuan Chen did not dare to slack off in the slightest, and quickly summoned hundreds of civil and military officials and introduced Ling He.
This Zhang Hai's ability was also promoted recently, and he served as a military advisor, but how can he compare to Zhao Kuo, so he has never had the opportunity to show up.
If Qin Tian is here, he can also know that this Zhang Hai was at the Xiangyang Alliance, and the princes who were going to do it with one mouth said that they couldn't wait to dig three feet into the ground.
That is, the Zhang Zi who said that Yin Chang raised a killing machine.
Zhang Zi was originally preparing to get ahead in the area of Peijun in Xuzhou, but was repeatedly rejected, so he traveled to various parts of the Central Plains, and then chose to join the imperial country.
After Yuan Chen's introduction, Ling He indifferently asked Niu Roar to continue training the soldiers, and asked him to post the An Min List, and then demolished the rest of the palace, and didn't know where to get the news, he raided the mansions of several corrupt officials and filled the treasury.
When Yuan Chen was shocked by the intelligence system of the Kyushu Chamber of Commerce, Ling He finally had time to settle down after Ling He skillfully handled a series of other government affairs, military affairs, and solved some people who did not obey his management.
In a very short period of time, the entire imperial kingdom was cleared, the government was harmonious, the backlog of trivial government affairs was quickly dealt with, and the army was also reorganized, the old and weak were cleared of the ranks, the morale was stabilized, and the number of non-commissioned soldiers was counted, and all the officers who were paid empty salaries were eliminated.
Yuan Chen completely believed that this person named Ling He was indeed a peerless strategist, not only a strategist, but also proficient in leading troops, government affairs, and resourcefulness, and his strength was not bad.
It only took half a day to put the imperial kingdom in order with various means, and Zhang Hai and his speed were not one-tenth of it.
If Qin Tian was again, he would naturally snort disdainfully, what is Zhang Hai, the Xiangyang Alliance was only 79 at first glance, how could it be compared to Ling He, a pervert.
Later, Yuan Chen held a feast, sang and danced, and invited Ling He, Zhang Hai, Niu Hao and other courtiers to come to celebrate Ling He's appointment.
Ling He naturally wants to give some face to Yuan Chen, after all, the other party is the lord of a country, if you provoke the other party, it will be boring to send troops to slaughter you.
When Ling He was late, he was stunned to find that there was no place for himself, and he frowned and arched his hand at Yuan Chen and said, "Since there is no position for the original phase here, then please allow the original phase to leave." ”
Ling He thought that these courtiers under Yuan Chen were crowding him out, and he was a little unhappy in his heart, when was this still infighting, it seemed that he would have to rectify it tomorrow.
Yuan Chen hurriedly stood up, stopped Ling He down, and said to Ling He: "Prime Minister doesn't need to be angry, no one dares to sit in your position, here." ”
Ling He understood in an instant, above the main seat, there was also a seat, that is, next to Yuan Chen, there was a position that was also placed at the same level with Yuan Chen.
Yuan Chen brought Ling He back and pressed Ling He to his seat, while he sat at the same level as Ling He.
Ling He pondered for a moment, and then accepted it calmly, which made Zhang Hai envious, Ling He's identity and his talent led to this foreign prime minister being able to sit in the first place.
First, Ling He must have come from a powerful country, and it is very likely that he was an important figure in the Ji State, and this alone is qualified to sit there;
Second, Ling He's skills, just half a day to make all aspects of Runan City so exciting, it is enough to sit there;
Third, at this critical juncture for the imperial country, it is understandable to sacrifice some dignity, not to mention that Ling He himself has a reason and ability to sit there.
This is also the reason why Ling He accepted it calmly.
Then after eating and drinking good wine and food for a while, Yuan Chen frequently gave Ling He some affectionate dishes, hoping that Ling He would put forward some conditions for him to meet, and then asked even more quietly: "I don't know these singers, the prime minister can take a fancy to them, just put them forward." ”
Ling He was stunned for a moment, and then said with a chuckle: "The monarch doesn't need to be like this, he will naturally do his best in the future, and within seven days, the Xuchang territory will naturally return to your hands." ”
Yuan Chen was indeed a little relieved after receiving Ling He's assurance, but he didn't know why the words that he said to himself always appeared in his mind.
"Victory or defeat is a common thing in soldiers, and my Kyushu Chamber of Commerce does not guarantee that every plan will succeed, and besides, this time only charging you three thousand gold, it is not worth revealing too much energy. In addition, the fundamental reason for the failure of this strategy is that the opponent's soldiers are very fast, and take advantage of the time it takes to get from Runan City to Xuchang, and strike first, this is your own reason, who told you not to do it earlier? Who made your soldiers slack? ”
"Besides, this time I only charged you 3,000 gold, which is not worth revealing too much energy."
This sentence made Yuan Chen a little uneasy, this uneasiness expanded rapidly, and he always felt that he didn't give Ling He any benefits, and his heart was not steady, and then he said cautiously: "I don't know what the prime minister likes?" Lonely will let people prepare, or Lone will reward you with five thousand gold? Or gold and silver jewelry? Despite the opening. ”
Ling He smiled and said, "Monarch, there is no need to do this, I will do my best in the future." ”
Yuan Chen was stunned, gritted his teeth, and finally said, "Otherwise, Your Excellency will stay in the palace tonight and have something important to talk about." ”
Events?
Ling He was stunned for a moment, and nodded very happily.
After drinking and meat, Ling He was still quite sober, and steadily followed a neighbor into the rear. In the palace, he then arranged for the palace maids to serve and wash, but Ling He refused.
Late that night, Ling He was keenly aware that Yuan Chen didn't seem to have anything important, otherwise he wouldn't have come late at night, and Ling He wouldn't be able to leave the palace gate now, so he was ready to sleep.
At this moment, two slender voices appeared at the door, and then quietly walked in and secretly climbed into bed.
Ling He suddenly woke up at this time, I have to say that this Yuan Chen is really bold enough, he can really forbear, if such a person is not Yuan Qiang's strength and happens to Yunguo to attack the imperial country, otherwise he will definitely be a generation of overlords.
Ling He hurriedly left the woman who was covered by me, put on her coat, left the two concubines' costumes, and found Yuan Chen.
Yuan Chen smiled and said, "The prime minister got up very early. There was a hint of ambiguity in his tone.
Ling He suddenly felt a chill rising upwards, not to mention letting him sit on an equal footing with Yuan Chen, just to say that Yuan Chen was able to send his concubine into someone else's bed without moving his expression and still look so immovable.
If this Yuan Chen is given time, maybe he will be able to soar into the sky, and he may become a new generation of overlords.
Ling He hurriedly arched his hand and said: "The monarch doesn't need to be like this, he didn't touch a single hair of them in the next, and the matter of Xuchang will naturally help him, if the monarch really wants to send something to rest assured, just send it to the next house, as well as some clothes." ”
Ling He also knew what Yuan Chen meant, and the surname Suo was frank and wanted to benefit.
