The two of them were chatting one by one, when someone outside ran over quickly and stopped in front of the hall. Chang Qianhu gestured, and he strode in, attached it to his ear, and whispered a few words.

"It's fighting again." After hearing this, Chang Qianhu immediately turned back to Monk Daoyan and said.

"How's it going?" Monk Daoyan didn't say much reason, and asked.

The visitor looked at Chang Qianhu, who nodded, so he arched his hand again and said succinctly: "The people of the Guo family have hit the door of a private house of the Wang family. The Wang clan was prepared, gathered a lot of people, and scattered their follow-up teams, and those in the core were fenced. ”

"Then the level of his platoon doesn't seem to be very good?" Monk Daoyan said unceremoniously: "In this way, I have also met him a few times. Although I am not very familiar with it, I really haven't seen him say anything about the art of war or anything. I inquired about it, but he only talked about some major diplomatic and strategic reasons, and did not say anything about the specific battle formation. ”

It stands to reason that his family is a general, and there should be no lack of education in this area. I don't know if it's because I'm not interested, or if we're not close enough to talk to me. He thought for a moment and speculated.

"I don't see anything about it." Chang Qianhu disagreed: "What can be talked about on paper? ”

"At least you can see a little bit of the basics." Monk Daoyan said, "Of course I know that allusion. But even if Zhao Kuo is thrown here, it is estimated that few will be able to beat him. That's enough. ”

"Uh......" Chang Qianhu was speechless for a while.

He still looked a little uncertain, probably doubting whether Monk Daoyan himself was a soldier. But the situation was urgent, so there was no much temptation.

"The captain who was watching over there said that it was Guo Gongzi's subordinate, and his quality was too poor." The spy who came to report said: "There are not many people he has brought with him, and there are not even a few Guo family members. We heard from the people around us that he was routinely on official duty to arrest criminals, but who knew that things were going to get bigger. Therefore, a group of citizens were temporarily gathered, weapons were distributed, and they went to attack Haoqiang's den. ”

"That'...... Look at it this way, but it's okay? Monk Daoyan was a little surprised: "I have also visited the slums in this place, and the people in that place are basically in a state of confusion. At that time, only Han Xin could drive the people of the city to fight. The residents on their side were far less trained than the city people in the Qin Dynasty. Being able to use them as soldiers is indeed a bit level. ”

"What's going on now? That person is still a friend of Wu Shizi. Chang Qianhu asked, "Do you have any other movements?" ”

"No, there is a stalemate between the two sides." The spy said: "The people led by the Guo clan are very tenacious, and the people outside are constantly going to reinforce them, so no one can beat anyone." ”

"Who's organizing the rescue now?" Monk Daoyan asked.

"At present, the people who can rescue them are still organizing, and they have not arrived. And those people, there won't be too many of them. The spy said, "There is no one organizing it now, it's just the people who were scattered before, trying to contact them." ”

"We can't even count how many people there are, because the whole area is full of stragglers right now. Those people were not the regular army in the first place, they were the people who were temporarily pulled by Guo Kang from the Rus' ghettos. After the brigade was scattered, these people ran everywhere, and from time to time people gathered and tried to fight back. Even if they are broken up again, there are other people running to get together. So I guess as long as the battle is not over, they won't disperse for a while. ”

"That's really me underestimating him." Monk Daoyan nodded and said.

"The fight between the two families of Taiwei and Prime Minister is also fresh enough." Chang Qianhu complained on the side: "I don't know what experience to refer to to deal with it, but I can actually do this kind of thing......

"Taiwei's side hasn't reacted yet, all the people left behind by the prime minister's family have been dispatched, and they are still pulling more people to let everyone participate in quelling the chaos." The spy continued to report: "Now that Shi people from the Ministry of Rites have been involved, and we have also seen them send people to the nearby Li family's residence to let people come out to help. Even several warehouses around were seized by them, saying that they wanted to temporarily requisition the materials inside. It is estimated that if it continues to develop, there will be many people involved. ”

"We're here as a caravan, and there's a warehouse there, and there's some spare weapons and armor. Should you move it out or destroy it first? They are in a hurry, and they will probably grab it. ”

"I think it's better to just leave it there and withdraw the people." Monk Daoyan suggested: "We don't need to support anyone in this matter, we just wait and see." ”

"If no one supports it now, it is equivalent to supporting this prime minister's family. Only they still have the strength to loot the artifacts," Chang Qianhu said: "Support them, can the Taiwei hold it up?" I think they have a closer relationship with King Wu, so they should support these talents, right? ”

"If he can't handle this, will he really be able to do great things in the future?" Monk Daoyan suddenly said without a word.

"Huh?" Chang Qianhu didn't react for a while.

"You just said the performance on the spot, I just thought it through. This kid wants to do big things. Monk Daoyan said: "This is a good thing for King Wu and even the Ming Dynasty. ”

"When the envoys of the Han Dynasty visited the countries of the Western Regions, they were not worried that they were too strong, but that they were too weak. Because these people really couldn't help themselves, they couldn't complete the task of pinning the Huns. ”

"We're certainly in a much better situation than we were then, but the goal of diplomacy is the same. The imperial court does not lack the kind of small barbarian country that comes to cheat a tribute and say a few good words in exchange for a reward, but needs a force that can assist us and maintain this system. ”

"Missing a Fang Bo?" Chang Qianhu immediately understood.

"Yes." Monk Daoyan nodded: "The areas directly managed by the Ming Dynasty are already governed by liuguan. But outside the direct jurisdiction of the imperial court, it was still a feudal system in fact. The heads of various origins and titles were appointed by the imperial court, but in fact they were still local hereditary princes. This is not much different from the three generations of antiquity. So, the methods we can use are actually pretty much the same. ”

"What we really need is a big country like Wei and Lu, which can stand in the barbarian heap and still enforce the order of the imperial court. But we don't have the ability to send people to establish a vassal state in the distance, like the Zhou people; And I have seen along the way, there are indeed too few ready-made countries that have this condition. These people are either outright barbarians and completely incapable of cooperating; Either they are weak and incapable, and they can't do a good job of self-preservation. Now that there are so many opportunities, it is certainly time to give it a try. ”

"But the biggest question now is whether they can hold on." He paused and said: "We Chinese people are not barbarians who live and die in the twilight of life, and we should consider the great plan of thousands of years when planning state affairs. If, like the rest of the Mongol regimes, Rome could not hold out for decades, it would not be worth investing too much. ”

"Guo's kid has a bit of an idea. If he succeeds, the chaos in Rome should ease. But ideas and abilities are two different things, and we don't know if he can do it. ”

"If it hadn't happened so suddenly, I would have wanted to test him myself." Monk Daoyan shook his head: "Forget it, a child with a weak crown can't be too strict." In this world, you can't expect to get sick every day. ”

"That's fine. But I think the other group of people are also quite grassy, I don't know if they can play it. Although this matter is serious, both sides are too hasty, and the level of performance is not high. Chang Qianhu stood in a professional perspective, analyzed it, and finally agreed.

Monk Dao Yan nodded, and was about to say another few words, when another spy ran over.

"Let's just say it, what's going on?" Chang Qianhu recognized him, obviously knew his task, and said directly and loudly.

"Princess Jeanne has left the camp outside the city!" The spy didn't bother with etiquette, and quickly reported: "She gathered a group of supporters and went to the palace!" ”

"Look, I'll just say it." Chang Qianhu patted his thigh: "Hey, sure enough, something is coming." ”

"I think it's best not to rush into this matter." Monk Daoyan persuaded: "Let's see what they can communicate." ”

"I don't know who to care." Chang Qianhu's face was big, and he turned his head and ordered, "Just follow Master Daoyan's method." ”

The spies responded and quickly exited the room.

"I hope that on both sides, at least there will be a person with hope for the future." He muttered helplessly.
