Chapter 519: Passive Changping Jun, Advice: False Ding's Theory
"General, the prime minister has sent an envoy to Daliang City."
In the camp tent, as Yan Mao came to report, Bai Yan looked at the uncle who was curled up together, trembling all over, and his eyebrows were slightly wrinkled.
Changping Jun this is to come to envelop the nobles in the city of Daliang, although the Wei State is small, but the famous scholars of the scholar family, the great Confucian celebrities, but more than the ten Qin States combined, this is not an exaggeration, the Qin State since the Shang Dynasty, it has pursued ploughing warfare, non-ploughing is war.
Although it has been repaired a lot since the time of King Huiwen of Qin, and the situation has been much better after the successive generations of Qin kings and the reward and reuse of the famous minister LΓΌ Buwei, but compared with Qi and Wei, which have hundreds of years of heritage, it is still far inferior, and Qin is better than Qin in terms of scribes, and even Chu is better than Qin.
This is very closely related to the national policy and the inheritance of the clan.
After all, the scholars of this period must have the scholars to rely on, not the great Confucians in the world in later generations, all of whom are poor and poor.
And Changping Jun obviously came this time, wanting to encircle the famous families in Daliang City.
In the eyes of outsiders.
Changping Jun is the right prime minister of the Qin State, so he should naturally be the Qin State and accept the famous men and women in Daliang City.
But if, like Bai Yan, it is clear that Changping Jun and Chu have always colluded, and in later generations, when Qin attacked Chu State, he directly led the troops to rebel behind his back, then Changping Jun's actions at the moment are a little intriguing.
"Yan Mao, now in the army, do all the soldiers know that I Bai Yan is a Qi person?"
Bai Yan looked at the trembling uncle and asked.
Changping Jun sent people to the city to win over the famous people of Wei this time, Bai Yan just had many reasons, and he couldn't stop it, after all, Changping Jun was the right prime minister, and in the eyes of everyone, all Changping Jun's actions were for the Qin State, if he Bai Yan used means in private, then once Changping Jun or others found out, he would not be able to get any benefits.
In other words, any general of the Qin State, even if Wang Jian knew the purpose of Changping Jun, he could not stop it, so he could only watch helplessly.
But on the contrary.
He Bai Yan is a Qi person!
is different from Changping Jun, Changping Jun is Yingzheng's uncle, but he Bai Yan is a Qi person, plus his previous Bai Yan blocked the mouth of the canal, wrote to Xianyang to ask for grain, and the letter from the corpse Cheng to the corpse family, these are all shortcomings that Changping Jun is unable to make up for as long as he does not know that he betrayed Qin.
"The soldiers know it! The general rest assured, all the soldiers have no second heart for Bai Yan! β
Yan Mao listened to Bai Yan's inquiry, but didn't understand it, thinking that Bai Yan was worried about rumors in the army, so he hurriedly handed over the report.
Bai Yan turned his head and glanced at Yan Mao.
Yan Mao's face with a conspicuous scar was a little overwhelmed in the face of Bai Yan's gaze, and when he saw that Bai Yan didn't speak, he looked at himself with a strange face, making sure that he didn't have anything strange about him, and didn't understand why Bai Yan looked at him like this.
The man on the side looked at Yan Mao, and then looked at Bai Yan in confusion.
"General, hey, old man, there's nothing you can do!"
The old doctor beside the uncle stood up tiredly, shook his head, and said to Bai Yan.
Immediately afterwards, the other two old doctors also glanced at each other, sighed, and then got up and saluted Bai Yan in silence.
"The general's relatives, I'm afraid this time, it depends on the creation of the Mandate of Heaven!"
The old doctor said to Bai Yan.
In the tent, when they heard the old doctor's words, they were startled, and they all looked at the uncle lying on the couch with a worried face.
"Yes"
"So how is this good?"
Yan Mao and Yan wanted to say something, but before they could say it, they saw Bai Yan sigh.
"There are three elders!"
Bai Yan bowed to the three of them gratefully, and turned his head to look at him after the salute.
"Go and get thirty gold for the three elders, and the three of them have worked tirelessly to save my uncle."
Bai Yan commanded.
"No!"
Hearing this, he hurriedly replied, then looked at the uncle, and then at the three old doctors.
"The general can't do it!"
"General, how does this make this!!"
The three old doctors with gray hair were also taken aback when they heard Bai Yan's words, and hurriedly said that in their eyes, they didn't save the general's relatives, and the general didn't blame them, they were already very happy, how could they still take the general's bounty.
"The three elders rest assured, this is Bai Yan's gift of gratitude, and there is no other meaning, the Wei country is in turmoil, and the three elders need to live in peace, no matter where they go, they have no money, and there is a lot of inconvenience."
Bai Yan said this, and then showed a ashamed face, and bowed to the three of them.
"If the three elders are in a hurry to leave, Bai Yan will arrange a carriage to send them off today, if they are not in a hurry to leave, Bai Yan also wants to beg the old man to stay for a few more days, this time Bai Yan was ordered to lead the troops, led the army of Qin to attack Daliang, and then acted against the sky, digging a ditch to release water, and finally the people in the city were devastated, after the flood, there will be a famine, there is no good doctor for the elderly, Bai Yan is worried!"
Bai Yan said slowly, in this sentence, Bai Yan specially said that this time he was ordered to attack Daliang, and this attack did not mean the same as the ditch he ordered later.
"General rest assured! We will stay. β
The three old doctors with gray hair looked at each other, nodded, and then looked at Bai Yan and said.
For Bai Yan, anyone who is a Wei person will feel complicated in his heart to Bai Yan, and it is impossible not to be angry, after all, it is Bai Yan, who is the general of Qin, who leads the army of Qin to attack Wei, and it is also a channel that Bai Yan ordered to dig.
However, when it comes to resentment, the two countries are at war, how many generals will care about the life and death of the people from ancient times to the present, before Bai Yan not only dug the ditch, he gave Daliang the opportunity to let the people leave, that is, after the channel was dug, he also sent his blood relatives as envoys to personally go to Daliang City to persuade him to surrender, the result was that the King of Wei not only cut off Bai Yan's uncle's hands and feet, but also insulted him with dog dung, in the face of such a thing, Bai Yan did not anger the people in Daliang City, and when the rainstorm came, he also asked the soldiers to order people to block the canal.
"There is labor!"
Bai Yan saluted the three doctors with a grateful face, and then asked him to take the three doctors down to rest.
"How to return the gold"
Yan Mao watched the three old doctors leave the camp after saluting Bai Yanji, muttering in a voice that could only be heard by himself.
Yan Mao didn't understand what his general did, first of all, the bounty, and then the kind words, in Yan Mao's eyes, no one was saved, it was a direct threat to the three people, so that the three of them racked their brains to find a way to save people.
"General!"
After Yan Mao watched Yan leave, he saw Bai Yan's eyes looking directly at him, and suddenly Yan Mao also looked at himself again to see if there was anything wrong.
"Yan Mao, in the future, you must not enter the court of the Qin State, even if you are transferred to the frontier to guard either side. Remember! β
Bai Yan opened his mouth and instructed, this is not an order, but Bai Yan's instructions to Yan Mao.
The mouth of eating people is short, the hands are short, the three old men are all doctors, and the people of Wei may not listen to everyone's words, but from ancient times to the present, the people will instinctively trust the words of the doctor, this is an eternal truth, Yan Mao does not understand these Bai Yan can understand, after all, this world is like this, official position and power are the preferred way for everyone to solve any solution.
But if you can't even buy people's hearts, then it's really not suitable to go to the court of the Qin State, in the face of the disputes between those factions and colleagues in the court of the Qin State, Yan Mao's temperament is too upright, and it is difficult to have a good end.
"Hehe, general, Yan Mao won't go anywhere, he will follow the general in the future!"
Yan Mao heard Bai Yan's words, and said with a smile, the scar didn't seem to be infiltrating at all, but it made people want to laugh.
Bai Yan glanced at Yan Mao, didn't speak again, but turned his head to the uncle's side.
Looking at the uncle who had stopped eating or drinking, and began to vomit, was very afraid of light, and his body was also feverish, Bai Yan knew that the uncle should be a dog disease after being bitten by Wei's fake dog.
"Uncle!"
Bai Yan looked at the uncle who was full of pain and even moaned, no matter how much grievance he had, it had dissipated at this moment, and he didn't know if his father would be uncomfortable if he knew about it in the future, after all, no matter how many uncles he was, he was also his father's own brother from childhood to adulthood.
Thinking of the arrogant appearance of the uncle before, thinking of the uncle who always liked to bully his honest father before, and thinking of the uncle who disregarded family affection behind him.
From childhood to adulthood, pictures appeared in his mind, looking at the dying uncle in front of him, Bai Yan's eyes were full of complexity.
After coming to the Qin State, Bai Yan had killed many, many people, and the dead people he had seen on the battlefield were too many to count, a sharp sword with blood, a corpse pierced by arrows and Changge, and Bai Yan had long been accustomed to the pictures.
But Uncle is different from everyone else.
Twilight.
Bai Yan thought of when he was a child, under the sunset, he sat next to the rice field, at that time his father and grandfather had not yet separated, during the autumn harvest, he sat with Zilu at that time, listening to Zilu talking about things in Linzi City, looking at the fields from time to time, grandfather and uncle talking, father and uncle were busy in the fields, mother and aunt, and they were helping in the back.
The memories of that scene, now looking at the appearance of the uncle, Bai Yan knows better than anyone that those scenes are the past that he and the uncle have never had a chance to return to.
"General, the downstream battalion, there are a few people from Daliang City, they say they want to see the general!"
Outside the camp tent, a soldier hurriedly walked into the camp tent and said to Bai Yan.
Bai Yan heard that someone asked to see him, and he was not surprised, from the beginning of the grain and millet being burned, until now, several days have passed, and the scholars in Daliang City have long been unable to hold on, and now the reason why they are struggling to persist is nothing more than wanting to continue to have a higher status than the people after the Qin Dynasty.
"Please go to the tent and order someone to prepare a banquet!"
Bai Yan got up slowly, looking at the uncle who couldn't hold on and saw King Wei go out of the city with his own eyes, Bai Yan turned around and left the camp with Yan Mao.
In the camp of the Qin army.
In a tent, Changping Jun was kneeling behind a wooden table, looking at the other five men behind the wooden tables in the tent, the youngest of whom were in their forties, and the oldest ones were even in their seventies.
Because in the camp of the Qin army, in addition to the servants who guarded the camp tent, there was also an eyeliner in the camp as an internal response, so Changping Jun was not worried about any changes in the camp of the Qin army, but he didn't know.
Moreover, after learning that Bai Yan was not a disciple of the Bai family, Changping Jun, who had long dared not easily move Bai Yan, did not have the slightest idea of moving Bai Yan again, Bai Yan was the favorite of Yingzheng, and held two elite side horses and iron horses.
In the Qin State, moving such a general is almost tantamount to delusion.
"The Peng family, Master Peng is an old friend of the old man, this time I learned that the old man is here, when the water of the Candle River and the ditch recedes, Master Peng will definitely go out of the city to greet him."
"The Yang family has a friendship with the old man for more than 50 years, but unfortunately Brother Yang is no longer alive, it's a pity~!"
The five men in the tent talked to each other, discussing the old friends they could win over in Daliang City, as well as some relationships, as well as the famous people and Confucians who were important in Daliang City.
These five people are all members of the scholar clan, and they have always been the guests of Changping Jun, and they are highly valued by Changping Jun.
This trip to Daliang, in addition to Yingchuan and the people in the Qin court, Changping Jun took five people, all of them came to Daliang City, to give him advice, many times no matter how smart a person is, there are times when he is negligent.
They had just arrived today, so Changping Jun did not even leave the camp, and stayed in the camp tent to entertain these five people.
"Report to Changping Jun, there is news that there are people from Daliang City in the downstream camp, asking to see Bai Yan!"
A servant entered the camp tent and reported to Changping Jun.
Changping Jun put down the bamboo slip, frowned slightly, and after thinking for a few breaths, his complexion began to become gloomy, and the well-informed Changping Jun was not clear at this time, the Wei clan in Daliang City, this was preparing to negotiate with Bai Yan.
"Bai Yan?"
"Why did the Wei people go to Bai Yan!"
When the five advisors heard the servant's report, they all looked at each other in bewilderment.
"It's the identity of Qi people!"
The first to react was the white-haired old man in his seventies, the old man's name was Wei Zhao, and he was an old man of the Wei country.
"I see!"
Changping Jun also reacted quickly, and immediately realized why in the face of Bai Yan who flooded the Great Liang, the Wei clan was finally able to put some mustard, and when he had already sent envoys into the Great Liang, he still chose Bai Yan.
Obviously, it is the identity of Qi people, and at this time, it plays a role.
Thinking of this, even if he is Changping Jun, who has always been steady and unfazed, it is a little difficult to accept, compared to Bai Yan, he Changping Jun did not lead troops to attack Wei, second, he did not flood Daliang City, and third, he did not have relatives who were mutilated by King Wei, and finally took the initiative to send people to negotiate in the city.
As a result, he was busy with his work, Bai Yan didn't do anything, no, it caused everyone in Daliang City to become like this, it was all done by Bai Yan, and as a result, those scholars in Daliang City still chose to meet Bai Yan in private.
"You must not let Bai Yan entrap the clans in Daliang City so easily!"
At this time, the youngest middle-aged man said loudly, the man's name is Ji Sheng, a scholar of the Chu State, who came to the Qin State from the Chu State in the early years and defected to Changping Jun, and Changping Jun also admired his intelligence very much and stayed by his side.
As Changping Jun's staff, Ji Sheng knew Chang Ping Jun's plans, after all, many times, Ji Sheng personally went to Chu State to see Xiang Yan, Jing Qi and others on behalf of Changping Jun.
Therefore, at present, Ji Sheng is very clear that this time Changping Jun knew that Bai Yan was going to take the opportunity to attack Chu State, whether it was Changping Jun, Xiang Yan and Jing Qi, they all hoped that when Bai Yan attacked Chu State, he could use the Wei clan to cut off Bai Yan's grain and grass behind his back, and also cut off Bai Yan's retreat.
In this way, it can not only solve the problem of Bai Yan and the more than 100,000 troops of the Qin State, but also do not need to expose the fact that Changping Jun has been anti-Qin.
Therefore, the Wei clan must not be allowed to fall to Bai Yan and make friends with Bai Yan, otherwise the purpose of Changping Jun and Xiang Yan will be in vain.
"Changping-kun, do you want to prepare a carriage to go to the downstream camp?"
Hu Cong looked at Changpingjun and asked.
Changpingjun shook his head.
"The news came from the downstream, and I immediately appeared downstream, and with Bai Yan's intelligence, I will definitely think of a lot."
Changping Jun sighed, his face was full of sadness, and at this moment Changping Jun also felt tricky, he had experienced the matter of Shangjun Gaonu, and even Wang Ben was almost calculated by Li Mu, fortunately, Bai Yan withdrew his troops back to defend Yanhe, and Bai Yan suddenly appeared in Yanmen a few months ago.
These all tell Changping Jun how sensitive Bai Yan is.
Only then did the people in Daliang City go to the downstream camp, and once he also appeared in the downstream camp at this time, no matter what excuse he had, Bai Yan would probably not be suspicious.
What's more, even if he goes to the downstream camp at the moment, it will not help at all.
"Is there any news from the south?"
Changping Jun looked at his cronies Ji Sheng and asked, when he discussed with Xiang Yan and Jing Qi about using the Wei clan to deal with Bai Yan, they didn't know Bai Yan's identity as a Qi person, and now, he had already given up his life and sent this matter to Xiang Yan and Jing Qi, and he didn't know if there was a way for Bai Yan to return to Qi after the two of them learned about it.
After being expelled from Xianyang by Ying Zheng, when he stayed in Yingchen, he was completely determined to leave Qin and help Chu deal with Ying Zheng.
And compared to killing Bai Yan, in the face of the vast territory and many generals of the Qin State, he is more inclined to let Bai Yan return to the Qi State, not only others, he also knows Bai Yan's ability to lead the troops very well, as well as the prestige in the side cavalry, it can be said that once Bai Yan returns to Qi, the Qi State not only has Bai Yan, such a famous general, but also a brave and good side horseman.
This is tantamount to adding insult to injury for the Qin State.
"No news has come yet!"
Ji Sheng shook his head, his eyes were also a little anxious.
"How's that okay?"
"Yes! If Bai Yan is not stopped, once the Wei State goes out of the city and surrenders to Qin, there will be no chance there. β
The other men kneeling behind the wooden table also frowned and discussed.
At this time, Changping Jun also got up slowly, walked back and forth in front of the wooden table, constantly thinking about countermeasures, and couldn't go, but he couldn't let Bai Yan smoothly persuade the Wei State to surrender and win over the Wei clan.
"In today's situation, the best way is to find a way to support Bai Yan, as long as Bai Yan is not in Daliang, even if any Qin general comes here, he will not be as good as Changping Jun!"
Ji Sheng thought about it, suddenly looked at Changpingjun who was walking back and forth, and said softly.
"Bai Yan is a general, Ying Zheng has handed over the general talisman to Bai Yan, Bai Yan can now not only mobilize Wang Ben, but also the army of Qin in the camp in Qianzhong, and he can also mobilize, plus the surrender of Wei is imminent, if you want to take Bai Yan, with Bai Yan's cleverness, it is absolutely impossible!"
When Changping Jun heard Ji Sheng, he stopped looking at Ji Sheng, shook his head and said.
Ji Sheng's method of once and for all, Changping Jun doesn't understand, but if you want to transfer Bai Yan, it's not easy to talk about, not to mention that Bai Yan's intelligence makes people dare not move easily, even if they use the soldiers and horses of Chu State, they may not be able to support Bai Yan, and in the case that Bai Yan has a general, he has not yet won over the Wei clan here, and Chu State rashly fights with Bai Yan, I am afraid that men will take advantage.
Although he himself is the right prime minister, it is absolutely impossible and has no right to let Bai Yan, who is the main general, leave Daliang at this time.
In the tent.
Hearing the words of Changping Jun and Ji Sheng, everyone else frowned and thought about it, only Wei Zhao, who was the oldest, was in his seventies, and raised his hand to stroke his long beard.
"Maybe there is a way to get Bai Yan out of the beam!"
Wei Zhao said softly.
As soon as these words came out, the other men, as well as Changping Jun, all looked over one after another, and looked at Wei Zhao with surprise, is there really a way to get Bai Yan to leave Daliang?
Even Ji Sheng, who proposed this method, looked at Wei Zhao with a puzzled expression.
"Please speak up!"
Changping Jun asked with a respectful arch of his hand, in Changping Jun's eyes, it was impossible to take Bai Yancai at this time, but since Wei Zhao spoke, Changping Jun still wanted to hear Wei Zhao's method.
Under the gaze of Changpingjun and everyone, Wei Zhao sighed and looked at Changpingjun.
"Changping Jun Ke still remembers that when he was in Luoyin before, there was a Wei Guoshi named Wei Pang, who once said bluntly that if Qin lost Jiuding, he would lose the world!"
Wei Zhao said.
Changping Jun heard Wei Zhao's words, and after thinking about it for a while, he nodded, don't talk about him, it is the court of Qin, and the vassal states have spread it, since this matter has been shipped, the scholars of Chu and Qi like to use this matter to ridicule Ying Zhengde for not being worthy, it is Cangtian who deliberately let Jiuding fall into Surabaya, so that Qin is destined not to get.
"Is Zhao Lao planning to let Bai Yan go to find Jiuding? Although it is said that if they are using the matter of Jiuding to ridicule Yingzheng today, if Bai Yan is asked to find Jiuding, it is understandable, but these princes and kings of Jiuding have sent people to Surabaya to find it, but it is all in vain, how can Bai Yan move? Spend your energy looking for it! β
Ji Sheng looked puzzled, frowned, and after thinking differently, he looked at Wei Zhao.
The other men were the same, and they didn't understand why Wei Zhao said to let Bai Yan go to Jiuding.
"If you can't find Bai Yan, you won't go."
Wei Zhao looked at Ji Sheng and said this, and then looked at Changping Jun: "Then what if there is news of Jiuding?" β
As he spoke, Wei Zhao's old face and old eyes showed a look of deep meaning.
None of the people present were stupid people, and when they heard Wei Zhao's words and thought for a while, they all vaguely guessed what Wei Zhao meant.
"Zhao Lao said, make a fake Jiuding and hide it in the Surabaya River?"
Ji Sheng paused and said cautiously.
Wei Zhao was dressed in delicate silk clothes, and his old face under white hair showed the smile of an old fox.
"It has been more than 50 years since Jiuding fell into Surabaya, and the old man is about to forget what Jiuding looks like, today, I have seen Jiuding people~~! Few and far between! β
Wei Zhao took a deep breath, closed his eyes, raised his hand to smooth his long beard, and shook his head.
"Wei descends, attacks Chu, Jiuding! Between the three, Bai Yan is almost the strength of one person, destroying the Wei State, only the final step, now Changping Jun is here, this step is far less than attacking Chu and Jiuding, and Jiuding is standing in the righteousness of the world, Bai Yan can't not know the importance of this thing to the Qin State, once Qin and Chu are at war, Bai Yan will be difficult to get out and go to find the Ding again."
Wei Zhao slowly analyzed it for everyone.
At this time, Ji Sheng's eyes flashed with a light following Wei Zhao's words, and he hurriedly looked up at Wei Zhao.
"And now, if Bai Yan hands over the beam to Changping Jun, he can first find Jiuding, and then attack Chu State, even if Bai Yan gets Jiuding in the end and sends it back to Xianyang, then we can also look for the great Confucianism who has seen Jiuding, and admonish Ding is a fake Ding, and then let Yingzheng slander Yingzheng to get Jiuding, and deceive the world, when the time comes, Yingzheng and Qin's civil and military officials will definitely anger Bai Yan! At that time, if Bai Yan knows in advance that Jiuding is a fake Ding, he will die if he returns to Qin, I am afraid that Bai Yan will have no way out."
Ji Sheng said and spoke, contemplatively, his face was full of smiles, and then he looked up at Wei Zhao with admiration, this method is good! can not only support Bai Yan, but also frame Bai Yan and force Bai Yan to return to Qi.
Thinking of this, Ji Sheng looked at Wei Zhao's gaze, which was called admiration.
The other three men did the same, looking at Wei Zhao, looking at each other, nodding their heads constantly, all agreeing with Wei Zhao's idea.
"Kai, fortunately to have the help of the elderly!"
Changping Jun also looked admitted, and after coming back to his senses, he kept nodding his head, full of serious salutes to Wei Zhaoji, and while he was relieved, he was also cheering for this plan.
"Please also ask Changping Jun to write a letter immediately and send it to Chu and Qi, the news of Jiuding not only has to spread, but also needs the actions of Qi and Chu to make Bai Yan have to fight. Things started because of Bai Yan, if Bai Yan heard Jiuding and didn't fight, then fake Ding! I'm afraid that in the future, it will be Yingzheng, and I can't see the 'true ding'! β
Wei Zhao returned the salute to Changpingjun and chuckled as he said his last words.
"Wonderful!"
When Ji Sheng heard Wei Zhao's words, he glared, and the corners of his mouth immediately rose.
Book friends, Happy Tanabata Duck!
