Chapter 246: Destroying the Nation of Sorrow
Outside the city of Guzang, Wu military camp.
Sun Wu, Wu Zixu and other generals of the Wu army were discussing the big tent of the Chinese army.
In accordance with Qingji's order, they led 10,000 troops to attack and destroy the Guzang Kingdom.
is just a Guzang country, a small country and a widow, which is a matter of being captured by the Wu army, which is strong and strong and comes with a great victory.
It's just that Sun Wu, as a general, must take into account the cost of casualties among the soldiers of the Wu army.
In war, people always die.
But Sun Wu must minimize the casualty rate of the Wu army as much as possible, and even surrender without a fight!
"Governor Dadu, the envoy of Guzang Kingdom asks to see you!"
Just when Sun Wu was discussing with the generals, a junior colonel suddenly entered the big tent of the Chinese army and said.
Hearing this, Sun Wu and Wu Zixu, who was standing on the side, glanced at each other, and both saw the deep meaning in each other's eyes, and smiled knowingly.
Before the war began, Gu Zang Guo sent an envoy first, and he must have admitted that he was soft.
After all, Gu Zang is the one who is lagging behind and occupies a weak position.
And if the Wu army sends an envoy first, it will be to salute first and then to soldier, while invading other countries, without losing the demeanor of a great country.
Originally, Sun Wu and Wu Zixu were worried that Guzang people would be unruly and strong-tempered, and they might resist stubbornly.
But now it seems, nothing more than that!
At least if Sun Wu used it properly, he would not be able to destroy the Guzang Kingdom at the lowest cost.
"Bring people in."
"No!"
Not long after, a middle-aged man wearing a dark robe and a long crown on his head, under the guidance of the small colonel, entered the Chinese army's tent with low eyebrows and eyes.
Looking at the generals of the Wu army on the left and right, all of them looked murderous and vicious, and the envoy of the Gu Zang Kingdom couldn't help but show a look of fear.
After all, Wu Jun had just rushed over from another battlefield, and the evil aura on his body had not yet subsided, and it was naturally very terrifying for the envoy of Gu Zang who had never smelled blood for a long time, or had never killed a person!
I saw that the envoy of the Guzang Kingdom came to Sun Wu tremblingly, waved his sleeves, and saluted respectfully: "My minister, I contempt the doctor Kou Zhun in the country, see the governor of the capital!" ”
In advance, the soldiers guarding the camp gate had already informed this Gu Junzhong doctor named Kou Zhun that the highest military commander in their army was the governor of Sun Dadu.
In fact, that's exactly what happened.
The military system and official system of Wu are different from those of the Central Plains, and even unique.
Not to mention the system of three public and nine secretaries, the military service system adopts a compulsory military service system.
There is also a strict hierarchy of military commanders at all levels.
Captain, chief, commander, captain, lieutenant, lieutenant, general.
On top of the generals, four towns and four expedition generals are set up, which are southeast, northwest and northwest.
At the same time, such a general can also increase the rank of governor.
For example, the current Sun Wu, whose original official position was one of the three dukes, is now appointed by Qingji as the general of Zhengnan, increasing the title of governor of the capital, and supervising the military affairs of the ancient Yuedi, and has the right to cut first and then play.
"Doctor? I don't know what the doctor is doing here? ”
Sun Wu asked pretending not to know.
In a small country like the Gu Contempt Country, under the king, the biggest courtier is the doctor, which is needless to say.
Therefore, this time, the country can send a doctor as an envoy, which shows the sincerity of seeking peace!
"Governor, I can't hide it, my minister has come by the order of my king, and wants to make peace with your country."
As expected, Kou Zhun lowered his head and said: "Our monarch has admired the culture of Wu for a long time, and now the king has arrived, and he is willing to be a vassal of Wu State, a vassal of Wu State, a vassal from generation to generation, and pay tribute every year!" ”
Called the minister Nagong?
Before this battle was fought, the country of Gu had already succumbed, which was really expected.
Because the country of Gu is itself a vassal state of the Yue country.
Even the Yue Kingdom can be surrendered, but it is conceivable that the Gu Contempt Country is not a hard bone!
Surrendering to the state of Wu is no different from surrendering to the state of Yue.
Sun Wu smiled indifferently and said, "The meaning of your monarch is already known to the governor of Pontus. However, the order given by my king to the governor of Pontus is to destroy the kingdom of Gutu, so I will not obey my fate! ”
"The Governor ......"
Without waiting for Kou Zhun to speak, Sun Wu waved his hand and said, "No need to say more! ”
"Doctor Zhong, please also tell you on behalf of the governor of the country, Wu will destroy the contempt, if you are contemptuous of people, you can turn against the armor, and surrender with Lilly, then you will still not lose the glory and wealth, and the position of the marquis will also be sealed."
"If not, on the day the city is broken, I am afraid that I will contempt the monarch and ministers, and it will be difficult to protect my life!"
"My minister is retiring."
After knowing that Wu Guotie was determined to destroy the Gu Guo, Kou Zhun could only talk for a long time and reluctantly leave.
After Kou Zhun left, Sun Wu asked the generals to retreat, leaving only the deputy general Wu Zixu to sit opposite him.
Looking at the generals, the only one who can keep up with Sun Wu's rhythm is Wu Zixu.
"Zixu, it seems that we want to destroy the Guzang Kingdom, Yi Ye."
Sun Wu said with a smile.
"Why did the Metropolitan Governor say that?"
"Hahahaha. I wrote the book of war, I don't know if you have read it, Zixu? Only by knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent can one win a hundred battles. ”
Sun Wudao: "I have ordered someone to find out clearly, the country of Gu is now the lord is weak and the minister is strong, the monarch is endless, the mediocre people, timid and afraid of things, hearing that my Wu country will be destroyed in three months, and I dare not resist." ”
"And Lu Hun, the doctor and powerful minister of the contemptuous country, may resist stubbornly, but there is nothing to be afraid of."
"If the king surrenders, his army and people will be like a plate of scattered sand, how can they resist? Therefore, it is not difficult for my Wu country to be a soldier who surrenders without a fight. ”
Hearing this, Wu Zixu followed with a slight bow and said, "I don't know what the Metropolitan Governor plans to do?" ”
"I should repair a book, so that people will be sent to the end. If there is no final understanding of the current affairs, it will definitely come down. ”
"Tomorrow, we can invite the army to fight on the bank of the Scorn River, and wait for the surrender of the city without end, and the country of Scorn can be determined."
"Good!"
Wu Zixu agreed with Sun Wu's proposition.
It is worth mentioning that although Sun Wu is the governor of the capital and has great power in the army, Wu Zixu, as a deputy general, can still restrain Sun Wu.
In order to firmly hold the military power in his own hands, Qingji also took great pains.
However, in order to ensure the combat effectiveness of the army, every time Qingji selects a general or a deputy general, he will consider whether the two are compatible.
For example, the current Sun Wu and Wu Zixu are obviously a pair of golden partners.
As soon as Kou Zhun, the envoy of the country of Gu Mi, left, Sun Wu repaired a letter and sent an envoy to officially send a letter of war to the country of Gu Wu.
This is undoubtedly a provocation for the monarchs and ministers of the contemptuous country!
Since there is no point in suing for peace, surrendering to Wu and becoming a slave of the dead country is not what the contemptuous people want to do, so under the call of the upper doctor Lu Hun, the soldiers and civilians in the city have mobilized one after another, ready to fight to the death with the Wu army.
In such an environment, the monarch of the contemptuous country was helpless in the end, so he could only obediently agree to Lu Hun and other ministers of the main battle faction to fight to the death.
