Chapter 778: The End of the Tongue Debate

Different situations, different objects, and the content of the argument cannot be exactly the same.

Today, although the Great Wei is still the most powerful force in the Three Kingdoms, it is not enough to suppress the other two countries by deterrence alone. Although the other two countries are weak, they are only slightly weaker, which does not make people think that the two countries will really be afraid of the Great Wei.

Today's Han Dynasty, occupying the four states of Yongliang and Jingyi, and then going on a northern expedition, is not a "mayfly shaking a tree", it is a tree with an axe, no matter how big and thick the tree is, it is possible that it will be cut down.

In this case, Wang Lang naturally would not boast in front of Zhang Xi about anything like "with a million armor and a thousand good generals", after all, there are a lot of troops and generals on the other side, and who is really afraid of whom.

And Wang Lang's purpose this time is not to persuade Zhang Xi to surrender, and naturally he will not say anything in Zhang Xi, "Those who follow the heavens prosper, and those who go against the heavens die". If you don't talk about the second half, it's reasonable.

But Zhang Xi doesn't know, acting, you have to play a full set, how can you only say half of the lines and not say it.

Therefore, Zhang Xi sincerely thought that Wang Lang had not finished speaking, so he said "That's it".

I didn't pout Wang Lang on the spot.

Lao Tzu has worked so hard to say so much, expounding how reasonable and legitimate the foundation of the Great Wei Dynasty is, and I will get such an evaluation from you when I come to your side? !

The old man didn't think there was anything wrong with his theory, he could only think that Zhang Xi was looking down on him, and deliberately used this attitude to express his contempt for him.

But the question is a junior, how dare you do this?!

Even if you don't count knowledge and achievements, let's just talk about Lao Tzu's age, not to mention being your grandfather, it must be more than enough to be your father, you really don't respect me at all, right?!

The old man felt that his reputation had been offended, but Zhang Xi really didn't have this idea, on the contrary, Zhang Xi began to refute it according to the lines in his memory.

"I thought that you, as an old minister of the Han Dynasty, would come to the front of the two armies and face the soldiers of the two armies, and you would have a high opinion, but I didn't expect that you would make such vulgar words."

Really, to emphasize again, Zhang Xi really didn't look down on Wang Lang much, he was really just reading the lines from the script.

But when this line heard Wang Lang's ears, he immediately fulfilled his conjecture - this bastard just looks down on me!!

Who's saying something rude?!

"I have a word, please listen to it."

Okay, I'd like to hear what you bastard can say!!

"In the past, when Emperor Huan and Emperor Ling, the Han dynasty was weakened, the eunuchs caused trouble, the country was in turmoil, and the Quartet was disturbed."

The line is still the same line, and the meaning is still that meaning.

Yes, the inaction of the emperor of the Han Dynasty led to chaos in the world, and after the Yellow Turban, it fell into the point of a four-way melee, which led to chaos in the world and the people suffered.

But at this time, shouldn't the great Han courtiers who have been affected by the Han Dynasty stand up and help the Son of Heaven stabilize the government, put things right, and calm the world? !

"On the occasion of this national crisis, what does Wang Situ do?!" Zhang Xi asked rhetorically.

At this time, where did you, Wang Lang, an old minister of the Han Dynasty, hide? !

When the Han Dynasty needed you the most, you ran away to an unknown place, neither the court nor the people, and now you come out to talk about these things, is it appropriate?!

Originally, next, it was time to follow this line and completely spray Wang Lang from virtue to character, and finally add a sentence "I have never seen such a brazen person" to trample to death, and completely give Wang Lang a "greedy for life and afraid of death", "helping Cao Weiabuse", and "shameless", then the legitimacy of Cao Wei that Wang Lang said before will be gone.

After all, who would believe the words of a man whose moral character is all corrupt?

This logic may not work very well in later generations, but in this religious society, a person's conduct often really determines whether what the person says is credible.

But to tell the truth, Zhang Xi and Wang Lang really don't have such a big grudge, and they are not as ruthless as Zhuge Yutou, so he still chose to stop here, not to the right person.

Zhang Xi changed his perspective and continued to expound his views, saying, "In the past, Taijia had no way, and the country was in danger of being tired. After Emperor Xiaowu, due to the excessive conquest, the living beings were in urgent need of hanging, Huo Guang was in power, recuperated, and returned the world to peace. Both of these are praised by the world and are virtuous people. Like Cao Cao, he is crowned a king, and like Cao Pi, he is just another Wang Mang, and Mr. calls these two virtuous people, doesn't it shame Yiyin, Huo Guang and other sages? ! ”

"You !!"

Wang Lang is depressed, really, the kind of thief who is depressed.

Because ah, I can't refute it, really, I can't refute it.

Zhang Xi moved out Yi Yin and Huo Guang, two Confucian models of human ministers, and if they were required by their standards, what Cao Cao's father and son did was really not up to the standards of human ministers, and they really could not be called virtuous people.

Immediately afterwards, Zhang Xi directly compared Cao Cao's father and son to Wang Mang, who Wang Mang was, who was recognized as a rebellious minister and thief.

The key is that what Cao Cao and Cao Pi did is really exactly the same as Wang Mang.

first controlled the government, then crowned the duke, crowned the king, and finally accepted the Chan concession. Wang Mang still has a great reputation before he usurped the rebellion, what do Cao's father and son have?!

After the eunuchs, do you count?!

If you really want to refute it, it is okay to jump out of the framework of people and ministers directly, and refute it according to the theory of "Qin loses its deer, and the world chases it together".

If the emperor of the Han Dynasty does not govern the world well and causes chaos in the world, then you will lose the qualification to rule the world, and it is reasonable for Cao Wei to replace him with the merit of pacifying the world.

But this is not in line with Cao Wei's state-building process.

Cao Wei has always been attached to the Han Dynasty, he is not a rebel who created the Han Dynasty, and Cao Pi's process is Zen Concession, which belongs to the internal transition, which is completely different from Liu Bang's establishment of the Han Dynasty to replace the Qin Dynasty.

If you really want to refute it in this way, you will deny the legal basis that Cao Wei has always insisted on - the Han Dynasty of Chan.

Therefore, Wang Lang couldn't refute it, because he couldn't refute it.

That's so depressing.

was first looked down upon by a junior, thinking that what he said was boring nonsense, and then this junior really put forward a truth that he couldn't refute, it was impossible for Wang Lang not to be depressed.

However, Wang Lang did not spurt out a mouthful of old blood after all, not to that point.

Zhuge Liang was able to scold Wang Lang to death, not only because he won the tongue debate, but more importantly, Zhuge Liang directly buttoned Wang Lang's hat, ruined all the reputation accumulated by Wang Lang in his life, and beat him into a "greedy for life and afraid of death" and "shameless" person.

In this era when reputation is more important than life, Wang Lang can't refute Zhuge Liang, which means that he acquiesced to being that kind of person, but Wang Lang really couldn't refute it.

Under the anger and attack, coupled with the age, I didn't catch my breath and hung up, which is normal.

But now, Zhang Xi did not personally attack Wang Lang, did not label Wang Lang, although his attitude made Wang Lang very dissatisfied, the verbal argument between the two sides still only stayed on the matter itself.

Even if Wang Lang can't refute it, he just loses the argument, as for whether the foundation of the Great Wei is still solid, this world has its own public opinion, and Wang Lang does not need to defend it.

As long as the Great Wei is still strong, then the Great Wei will still be orthodox, but one day the Great Wei will not work, no matter how correct the foundation of the Great Wei is, he is also an anti-thief, this is the reality.

Therefore, Wang Lang held back for a long time, and finally spit out a sentence.

"This is a short-sighted quibble of a junior, and it is not enough to discuss it with me! Leave!!! ”

After speaking, Wang Lang didn't look back, turned his horse and left.

Cao Zhen saw that Wang Lang was gone, and he didn't talk nonsense with Zhang Xi, he arched his hand and said, "See you on the battlefield!" ”

Then it was also the time to turn the horse back to the camp.

As for Zhang Xi, a person stayed in place in a daze for a few seconds, pondering a question - why didn't this Wang Lang vomit blood and die?!

Could it be because I didn't say the famous "I've never seen such a brazen person"?!

Hawkers, it's too late to make up such a sentence now, right?!

After all, the people have already gone away, and Cao Zhen has also returned to his own army, which is about to start a formal battle.

Well, don't stay for a long time, let's return to the Chinese army first, and command this battle before we talk about it!

As soon as Zhang Xi thought of this, he also turned his horse back to the camp.

After the commanders of the two armies returned to their own Chinese armies and re-established their respective marshal flags, a battle officially began.

Cao Zhenqin led 45,000 people, against 25,000 people led by Zhang Xi.

The big war is about to break out.
