Chapter 980 (2-in-1)

Lin Chen, who was in the palace of Emperor Yuyutian, chuckled and said with a chuckle when the Maitreya King Buddha ascended the throne of the Buddha: "After the fall of Sakyamuni Nyorai, let the King of Puguang Merit Mountain take over." Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 infoNow that the king of Puguang Merit Mountain has fallen, and Maitreya has taken over, I don't know who will take over when Maitreya falls? But when Maitreya falls, this time the gods must have nothing to do with Buddhism, and that is when you let the King of the Earth Bodhisattva and the Buddha's Heart Sect be born. ”

These things have nothing to do with the battle in front of Wuwei City, Wang Xian can be regarded as a scholar of the past and the present, and he is also slightly involved in concurrent battle strategies, although he is not as good as Wang Yangming and Yue Fei, but it can be regarded as okay.

Wang Xian put down a position in front of Wuwei City, and fought a big battle with Wang Yangming, the soldiers on both sides were the same elite, although Wang Xian's morale was slightly lower, but Wang Xian's command was the capital's Praetorian Guard, and the morale was not much lower than that of the other party. After a big battle, it turned out to be evenly divided, and no one had the upper hand.

The army under Wang Xian's command is the Xiniu Hezhou Janissary Army, which can be said to be the most elite soldier in Xiniu Hezhou, and was still a little afraid of the Nanzhan Buzhou army that won his own side in a row, but after a big battle with it, he found that the other party was not stronger than himself, and his morale immediately increased.

Wang Xian also knew that there were no strong generals on his side, and Xiang Yu under Wang Yangming's account. Ran Min is an unborn fierce general, and he will never be able to gain the upper hand, so he will hide it clumsily, and as soon as he leaves the city, he will command the army to set up a formation and fight with the army under Wang Yangming, not giving the other party's general a chance to call the battle.

But Wang Xian knew that he was inferior to Wang Yangming in the art of war after all, and the biggest advantage compared with Wang Yangming was to occupy the topography of Wuwei City, so on the first day, he had a big battle with Wang Yangming outside the city, and let the soldiers in the city know that his side was no worse than the army of Nanzhan Buzhou, so he no longer went out of the city and could not defend it.

No matter how the generals under Wang Yangming's command call the battle, they just hold on to the city and don't come out.

Wang Yangming didn't think about fighting a siege war with the army of Xiniu Hezhou at all, so he only brought a million troops, although this million army is a lot, but Wang Xian in the city also has 500,000 troops under his command, compared with his own side, it is not much or more, if the siege war is carried out, I am afraid that after he takes Wuwei City, there will not be many soldiers left on his side. At that time, I am afraid that I will no longer be able to continue to attack Xiniu Hezhou, so in case, Wang Yangming does not want to fight a siege war.

But Wang Xian just grabbed Wang Yangming's heart and never went to war.

Wang Yangming let the soldiers scold under the city all day long, and even let the soldiers sit under the city with open chests, constantly scolding, but Wang Xian just decided one point - defending the city and never going to war, which made Wang Yangming extremely helpless.

However, among the generals in the city, most of them couldn't stand the soldiers of Nanzhan Buzhou outside the city, from the son Wang Yangming to the ancestors, one by one, they scolded by name, and ran to Wang Xian to ask for battle.

Wang Xian was holding a book of Analects to study, looked at the generals kneeling in front of him, and said with a slight smile: "How are the generals compared to General Lin Renzhao, who was loyal to the country under the Three Mountains Pass?" ”

The generals glanced at each other and said, "General Lin is not only excellent in martial arts, but also in the art of war and tactics. There is no one to compare with the last general and others. ”

Wang Xian asked again: "How do the generals compare with Marshal Yue Fei?" ”

"Marshal Yue Fei's ability is even higher than that of General Lin Renzhao, how can we compare with it." The generals said.

Wang Xian said with a smile: "All the generals, get up, it's not that the prime minister is unwilling to go out of the city." Marshal Yue Fei and General Lin Renzhao are so powerful, they were both defeated in the hands of that Wang Yangming, how can we be Wang Yangming's opponents? ”

Although the generals didn't want to admit it, they also knew that what Wang Xian said was right.

After a long silence, someone said, "Prime Minister, are we just sitting in the city?" ”

Wang Xian smiled and said, "Generals, what is the purpose of Wang Yangming's coming to this Wuwei City?" ”

"Wang Yangming is the leader of the rebels, and the purpose of coming to Wuwei City is naturally to attack us."

Wang Xian smiled and said: "Yes, that Wang Yangming is a courtier of the puppet emperor, he is here to seize the throne, and if you want to seize the throne, you must take down the cities one by one."

However, Wang Yangming only brought a million troops, but I have 500,000 troops in Wuwei City, these 500,000 troops, if they fight with Wang Yangming outside the city, they may not be opponents, but if they are used to defend the city, Wang Yangming wants to take Wuwei City, but it is not so easy, if he can't take Wuwei City, Wang Yangming can't enter Xiniu Hezhou.

If Wang Yangming can't take the city of Xiniu Hezhou, how can he defeat us and seize the throne? So what we have to do now is just one word - procrastinate, and drag it until he Wang Yangming can't stand it.

After all, Wang Yangming was an expedition of the army, and it was inconvenient to transport grain, grass, baggage, and other materials, and it dragged on for a long time, so Wang Yangming had to withdraw his troops, and we naturally won.

If we can win without fighting, why bother? ”

"But what if Wang Yangming waved his troops to attack the city?"

Wang Xian looked at the generals in front of him and said: "Although this possibility exists, based on my understanding of Wang Yangming, Wang Yangming will not do such a thing."

Wang Yangming is the kind of person who achieves the greatest results at the lowest cost, and it is unlikely that Wang Yangming will use this kind of hard work method in siege warfare. Although in the end, when it is absolutely necessary, Wang Yangming may also use this method.

Not so far. He will inevitably be greatly injured, and after breaking through Wuwei City, his idea of continuing to attack Xiniu Hezhou will be shattered. We are also loyal to Your Majesty. ”

When the generals heard this, they did not speak again.

Outside the city, Wang Yangming was in the camp. Wang Yangming was also distressed at this time, how could Wang Yangming not know Wang Xian's thoughts. But knowing is knowing, Wang Yangming has no way to take Wang Xian.

If it were someone else, Wang Yangming could still use tactics to provoke the other party to fight. But Wang Xian is old and strong, that is, he recognizes one and will never go out of the city, waiting to fight a siege battle with Wang Yangming. Let Wang Yangming have a feeling of a dog biting a hedgehog.

The army has been under Wuwei City for nearly a month, and it has been besieging but not attacking, waiting for an opportunity, and besides, Wang Yangming has no other way to think of besides this.

However, the opportunity soon appeared, and what Wang Yangming had no choice but to be realized by others for Wang Yangming.

Wang Xian has always been in a high position, although he is not favored. But it also made some people feel unhappy, Wang Xian has been avoiding fighting in Wuwei City, but some people have seized the handle.

Li Ren, the governor of the government, has always been at odds with Wang Xian, and he is a Confucian disciple of Wang Xian. Occupying the position of prime minister for countless years, he was very dissatisfied, and he had long been staring at Wang Xian's position, and after getting the news that Wang Xian avoided fighting, his heart was full of joy. I know that my opportunity has come for a long time.

The next day, when I went to court. Li Ren walked out confidently and kowtowed: "Li Ren, the governor of the minister's counselor, has something to do." ”

Emperor Xuanhe was ready to retire from the dynasty. Seeing Li Ren come out to play, he sat down again and asked, "What is Aiqing doing?" Quick as it gets. ”

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty has put the national fortune in the hands of Wang Xian with great trust, but that Wang Xian has owed His Majesty's kindness, and since he arrived in Wuwei City, he has closed his doors without a fight, wasting money and food. He did not take His Majesty's high hopes to heart.

After all, Wang Xian is a disciple of Confucianism, and he is afraid that Wang Xian has some conspiracy! ”

Emperor Xuanhe was furious when he heard this, and scolded: "Wang Xian, old thief, dare to do this! Someone's coming......"

Wang Xian has been the prime minister for countless years, although most of the disciples are now above the court, but after all, there are still some officials promoted by Wang Xian, who have great trust in Wang Xian and do not believe that Wang Xian will do anything to damage the country.

"Your Majesty, the old prime minister has always been loyal to the country, and he has never had a different heart, so there must be something strange about this matter." Zheng Jing, the director of the Ministry of Rites, went out to play.

When Zheng Jing said this, Emperor Xuanhe hesitated a little, after all, Wang Xian assisted three generations of emperors and has always been loyal. If Wang Xian wanted to help Nanzhan Buzhou under the pressure of his master, he should have helped a long time ago, and it was impossible to wait until now to make a move.

Under the anger just now, Emperor Xuanhe didn't think about it, and when he heard Zheng Jing say it, he suddenly felt that things might not be what Zheng Jing said.

Li Ren saw that Emperor Xuanhe was about to give an order, but he was stopped by Zheng Jing, and couldn't help but be angry with Zheng Jing, and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, then Wang Xian's behavior at this time is consuming our national strength." His intentions are so sinister! ”

Zheng Jing hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, the old prime minister must have had something unavoidable to do this at this time. That Wang Yangming has a million troops under his command, and the old prime minister only has 500,000 in his hands, if he fights Wang Yangming outside the city, I am afraid that he is not Wang Yangming's opponent, but relying on the city, he can fight with Wang Yangming. ”

"Humph! Zheng Jing, Wang Yangming's command is a chaotic army, as soon as my heavenly soldiers arrive, it will definitely be a big drop in morale, and if you look at the wind, how can you get the reason that the morale will be higher than that of our army.

Your Majesty, it is clear that Wang Xian is deliberately delaying to save time for Wang Yangming's corporal to restore morale. Your Majesty, that Wang Xian must not stay, and must be taken down and questioned. Li Ren said.

"Your Majesty......." Zheng Jing wanted to say something more, but was interrupted by Emperor Xuanhe.

I only heard Emperor Xuanhe say: "Needless to say, give an order, let Wang Xian go out of the city and Wang Yangming on the same day, and defeat the enemy army as soon as possible. Retreat! After saying that, he brushed his sleeves and left.

After this holy decree came to Wuwei City, Wang Xian seemed to be a hundred years old, and he was exhausted. He muttered: "Your Majesty, the old minister is loyal, and he ...... it." ”

When the decree was announced just now, all the generals in Wuwei City were around, and they all heard the decree. After the eunuch who announced the decree left, all the generals gathered around Wang Xian, looked at Wang Xian, whose face was extremely ugly, and said, "Old Prime Minister, what should I do now?" ”

Wang Xian sighed lightly and said: "The generals don't need to panic, wait for the old man to play a fold, and complain to Your Majesty about the reason for defending the city without fighting, I think Your Majesty can understand." Go down. ”

The generals looked at Wang Xian, ready to say something, but couldn't speak, sighed lightly, saluted Wang Xian, and turned around and walked out of the hall.

When Wang Xian's recital arrived in the capital, it immediately caused an uproar in the court.

"Your Majesty, that Wang Xian dared to disrespect the decree and despise the emperor's authority at this time, if he is not severely punished, it is not enough to deter those who have bad intentions." After listening to Wang Xian's recital, Li Ren hurriedly said.

Although Zheng Jing had a good impression of Wang Xian, he was still a little dissatisfied with Wang Xian's disrespect for his will, so he went out and said: "Your Majesty, the old prime minister is confused for a while, Your Majesty can issue an order to reprimand him and let him go out of the city to fight Wang Yangming." ”

Emperor Xuanhe was already extremely dissatisfied at this time, but he also wanted to give Wang Xian a chance to support him back then, so he nodded and said: "Well, I ordered to reprimand Wang Xian and let him go out of the city as soon as possible to fight." ”

Wang Xian looked at the holy decree in his hand and muttered: "The traitor is misleading the country, the traitor is misleading the country!" Your Majesty, at this time, you will not hesitate to give up the victory to the decisive battle outside the city, and the countless money and food spent in front of you have been spent in vain. ”

All the generals under his command looked at Wang Xian with great worry at this time, and said: "Old Prime Minister, let's go out of the city, if we don't go out of the city again, it will be extremely unfavorable to the old Prime Minister, then even if Wang Yangming is powerful, it is unlikely that he wants to defeat us in a battle." As long as we hold out for a while longer, Marshal Yue's army may come. ”

Wang Xian waved his hand and said: "If you go out of the city at this time, then the previous efforts will be in vain, Yue Fei's army doesn't know when it will arrive, in case we are defeated, it will be the sinner of the ages." Let the old man bear the name of disloyalty, as long as you guard the city. After speaking, he turned around the study and played the table to Emperor Xuanhe again.

After this recital arrived, Li Ren sneered and said to Zheng Jing: "Lord Zheng, what else do you have to say at this time?" That Wang Xian clearly did not put His Majesty in his eyes. I still have the idea of defecting to the enemy. ”

Although Zheng Jing thought that Wang Xian had some hardships, Wang Xian resisted the decree twice and disrespected, but Zheng Jing could no longer speak for him, so he could only sigh lightly and bow his head silently. He read in his heart: "Old Prime Minister, even if you have any troubles, you can't resist the decree again and again, so that even if we want to help you speak, we can't say it." ”

Seeing that Zheng Jing no longer spoke, Li Ren triumphantly said to Emperor Xuanhe: "Your Majesty, Wang Xian's heart is still obvious, Your Majesty should send someone to take down Wang Xian, and then order the generals in the city to attack and annihilate Wang Yangming's army." ”

Emperor Xuanhe's face was already cloudy at this time, and he said, "Just as Aiqing said." After saying that, he brushed his sleeves and left.

Emperor Xuanhe's holy decree took down Wang Xian, and Zhang Yi, the imperial envoy who went to announce the decree, said to Wang Xian: "Old Prime Minister, I'm sorry, although I don't want to, but Your Majesty's holy decree is not to be disobeyed." ”

Wang Xian looked at Zhang Yi and said, "The old man doesn't blame you, he staggered to the prison with the coming Imperial Forest Army."
