Chapter 34: Kong Kui's direct advice

Chen Sheng's uprising, in Surabaya County, Chen County has a lot of impact, which also made the originally strong, violent Qin State have the largest civil strife in history, all over the country have risen in response to Chen Sheng's uprising, although the rebellion has not yet spread to the whole country, but the entire Shandong region, has gradually fallen.

As a descendant of Wei, Wei Ji also began to plan his future, he was not willing to live a mediocre life, he wanted to rely on his own strength, regain the Wei State, re-revive the land of Wei, and make him prosperous.

The rise of Chen Sheng made Wei Ji see hope, saw the hope of the re-rise of Wei, perhaps, taking advantage of the opportunity of the Shandong turmoil, the Wei family can start in Suiyang and gain a firm foothold in Dangjun, so that they can gradually go north, compete for the world, and recover Wei.

This idea should not only be thought about in his heart, Wei Ji even wanted to put him into reality, he was already in the secret room at this time, summoned Zhou Shi, Li Yan and Wei Bao, ready to discuss how to deploy the uprising, how to be able to control Dangjun.

At this time, next to the carbon pot, everyone sat around, and a layout map of Suiyang was placed on the table, which took the Wei family three months to draw a drawing, as long as there is this drawing in hand, the entire Suiyang can be seen at a glance.

But at this time, the room was silent, no one spoke first, Wei Zhi was also bowing his head and pondering, until Wei Bao's cough broke the silence in the room, Wei Qi had already raised his head to scan everyone at this time, and said loudly: "Uncle Zhou, Uncle Li, I have decided to raise troops in Suiyang, establish our Great Wei State in Dangjun, and work with Chen Sheng to overthrow the Qin State." ”

Zhou Shi had already considered this problem, at this time Wei Zhi mentioned it, Zhou Shi nodded slightly, and couldn't help laughing: "Qin has been tyrannical for a long time, and the people's hearts are not supported, what we were worried about at the beginning was whether we could overthrow the tyrannical Qin, lest Wei become the first leader, at this time Chen Sheng raised troops, and we just took the opportunity to make trouble against the tyrannical Qin." ”

Li Yan on the side nodded and smiled: "Yes, we have more than 300 dead soldiers at this time, if we gather Suiyang celebrities, encourage the strong, kill the county guards, and occupy the city, we have our family property in Suiyang, and we can recruit soldiers on a large scale, at that time, it is not difficult to rise to the side." ”

"This is natural, but I'm worried about Li You, I heard that he has been named the county guard of Sanchuan, with nearly 100,000 soldiers and horses, if he raises troops to advance eastward, can we resist?" Zhou Shi hesitated a little and said in a deep voice.

This question is indeed very tricky, if the Wei family has just started an incident and is arrested by the Qin army on a large scale, it will not be worth the loss, but now the arrow is on the line, and it has to be sent, Wei Zhi hesitated, on the side, Li Yan said: "If Li You dares to go east easily, isn't he afraid that Chen Sheng will take the opportunity to go west and attack Sanchuan County?" ”

Speaking of this, Li Yan took out the map and said: "If Sanchuan County is lost and Hangu Pass is exposed, I am afraid that the Qin State will be in turmoil, and Li You will definitely die if he is derelict in his duties, and he will definitely not dare to take this risk." ”

Li Yan's words once again aroused everyone's confidence, and soon, Wei Ji and others set their eyes on Zhou City, and Zhou City also woke up in contemplation, he looked at everyone, resolutely got up, and ordered: "Wei Gongzi, you and Li Yan will gather the dead together, send down the weapons we have stockpiled, and prepare for trouble." ”

Wei Yi was very excited, and nodded with Li Yan, at this time, Zhou Shi's eyes fell on Wei Bao again, and said with a smile: "Leopard Gongzi, you go and prepare grain and grass, if we have an accident, the problem of grain and grass needs to be solved urgently, these things are all in the warehouse in the south of the city, you must be careful in doing things." ”

Wei Bao also nodded slightly, and at this time, Zhou Shi put away the map on the table and said with a smile: "I'm going to visit Kong Kun, he is a famous man in Suiyang, if you can get his help, you should be like a tiger with wings." ”

。。。。。。

At night, a carriage galloped down the street, and soon he turned a corner, and came to a stop in front of an inconspicuous mansion, and a man came down from the carriage, and he straightened his robe, and looked up to see a plaque engraved with the words 'Confucius'.

The person who came was Zhou Shi, at this time he had strode towards the Confucian Mansion, buckled twice on the door knocker, and soon, the sound of hurried footsteps sounded, and an old butler opened the door of the Confucian Mansion, and asked in a hoarse voice: "Who are you looking for?" ”

Zhou Shi smiled and arched his hand: "Please tell Mr. Kong, Canghai Jun Zhou City came to visit." ”

The old man glanced at Zhou Shi up and down, and nodded slightly: "Please wait, I'll report." ”

The old man closed the door and went to report, Zhou Shi stood in front of the door, looked around, and saw that no one was paying attention, so he sighed, at this time the rebellion was in full swing, and the imperial court was extremely strict with the curfew in various places, if it was interrogated or taken away at night, it would be really difficult to do, but soon, footsteps came from the courtyard again, and a young man's interrogation sounded: "Are you sure it is Zhou Shi?" ”

The old man's hoarse voice sounded again: "Childe, he did say that he was Zhou City. ”

The sound of conversation disappeared, and soon, the door of the Confucian Mansion opened again, and a young man bowed and said with a smile: "It turned out to be Mr. Zhou, my father is already waiting in the living room, please come with me." ”

"There's a nephew." Zhou Shi also smiled in return.

。。。。。。

In the Confucian Guest Hall, Kong Kun sat at the table, holding a teacup, slowly tasting tea, taking a sip of tea and stomach, the fragrance was overflowing, Kong Kun felt a lot more refreshed, at this time, his thinking shifted from the fragrance of tea to Zhou Shi, he suddenly came to visit late at night, what is the purpose?

Not long ago, Chen Sheng and Wu Guang rebelled in Qi County, all the way north, the defenders were defeated and retreated, and even Chen County in Chen County was lost, which shows that the Qin State at this time is no longer strong, and the rebel army that is gradually rising will become the dominant force in the future.

In this case, it is conceivable that the arrival of Zhou City must be that the Wei family can't stay still, they want to take the opportunity to start an incident, but at this time, the world is still unstable, Kong Kun does not approve of the Wei family raising the flag to rebel at this time, which will form three forces, three forces exist at the same time, Chen Sheng's anti-Qin eyes will unconsciously fall on Wei Qi, at that time, the world has changed greatly, maybe the Qin State will benefit from the fisherman, but the two forces will be annihilated in one fell swoop, thinking of this layer, Kong Kun can't help but sigh lightly.

Just as Kong Kun was pondering, hurried footsteps sounded outside the door, and soon, the voice of his son Kong Ji sounded: "Father, Uncle Zhou is here." ”

With the sound of footsteps, Kong Ji took Zhou Shi into the guest hall, at this time, a maid also followed, she put the tea on the table next to Kong Kun, saluted and left, at this time, Zhou Shi smiled and said: "Mr. Kong, we haven't seen each other for a long time." ”

"It turned out to be Mr. Zhou, please take a seat." Kong Kun hurriedly got up, pointed to the soft seat on the side and asked Zhou Shi to sit down, the two saluted each other and took their seats, at this time, Kong Ji said softly: "Father, you talk to Uncle Zhou, and the son will retire first." ”

Kong Kun nodded, Kong Ji left, there was a brief silence in the house, and soon, Zhou Shi arched his hand and smiled: "The last letter to Mr. Kong, I don't know what Mr. Kong thought about it?" ”

Zhou Shi got straight to the point, straight to the topic, so that Kong Kun was more convinced of his guess, it seems that Zhou Shi really came to raise troops in Suiyang, after a little contemplation, Kong Kun smiled: "Since ancient times, good birds choose trees to perch, I, Kong Kun, of course, do not want to live in Suiyang, but now, I suggest Mr. Zhou, do not use force in Suiyang again." ”

Zhou Shi was slightly surprised, and said suspiciously: "Please Mr. make it clear." ”

Kong Kun lowered his head and pondered for a moment, then raised his head and said, "Sir, with the power of the Wei family, can you resist the Qin Iron Army?" ”

"I can't." Zhou Shi shook his head slightly, and said: "But we have analyzed that the Qin army will not advance eastward in a short period of time, at least, there will be no large-scale battles in Dangjun." ”

Kong Kun nodded slightly, and said: "Since the Qin army will not advance eastward, then Mr. thinks that if the Wei family recovers the Wei State, will you be able to resist Chen Sheng's army in a short time?" ”

Zhou Shi was slightly surprised, and said suspiciously: "Chen Sheng's army? Why did you say that, sir? ”

Seeing that Zhou Shi was still puzzled, Kong Kun had to sigh and said: "Okay, let me tell you directly, Chen Sheng has nearly 100,000 troops, and his power is huge. ”

Zhou Shi nodded and sighed: "I admit that Chen Sheng's power is very strong, but sir, you must know that our Wei State will not easily offend Chen Sheng, and we will draw them together to fight against Qin......"

Zhou Shi didn't finish speaking, but was interrupted by Kong Kun raising his hand, Kong Kun got up, paced back and forth, and said half-loudly: "Sir's words are wrong, if the Wei family rises up at this time, the Qin State will regard the Wei State as a rebel, and at the latest in three months, it will definitely send troops to come to arrest it, and Chen Sheng will also regard the Wei State as a thorn in his side and try to pull it out, so that the Wei State is sandwiched between the two great powers, can it survive for a long time?" ”

After hearing this, Zhou Shi couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat, and after a long sound, he squeaked: "Please Mr. Kong teach me." ”

"If you want to survive in the cracks, the only way is to take refuge in Chen Sheng, so that you can survive and wait for the opportunity to restore the country, which is the best policy." Kong Kui smiled, the house became quiet again, Zhou City, Kong Kui were silent, as if time had stopped at this moment......

Soon, Zhou Shi finally made up his mind, looked at Kong Kun, and resolutely said: "I should keep Mr.'s words in mind, and ask Mr. to go with us, my son-in-law should remember it!" ”

"Hehe, the troubled times are coming, the world is in turmoil, I'm afraid Suiyang will not be peaceful from now on, since the Wei family does not give up, Mr. Zhou does not give up, I should do my best to help." Kong Kun arched his hand and smiled.

Sending Zhou Shi away, it was already late at night, Kong Kun walked slowly in the courtyard, at this time, his daughter's voice sounded from behind: "Is Daddy ready to go to Chen County?" ”

Kong Kun was startled by the sudden voice, and when he came back to his senses, he found that at some point, his daughter had appeared behind him, and he couldn't help but be surprised: "You are a girl's house, it's so late, what are you doing when you come out?" ”

Kong Xiuyun didn't pay attention to her father's question, and still asked persistently: "Is Daddy going to Chen County?" ”

Seeing that his daughter already knew, Kong Kun had to sigh lightly and scolded: "How do you know about this? Are you eavesdropping outside? ”

"Daddy, I don't want to go, I want to stay." Kong Xiuyun did not answer her father, but categorically said what she thought in her heart, but Kong Kun replied decisively: "No! Absolutely not! ”

"Why?" Kong Xiuyun wanted to ask again, but Kong Kun had already thrown off his sleeves and left, and soon, Kong Kun's decisive voice sounded: "You have no choice in this matter, pack up your things tomorrow, and we will leave in three days!" ”

Soon, the figure of Kong Carp disappeared into the night......

。。。。。。

Half a month later, a team of 300 people appeared outside the west gate of Chen County, and the person at the head was Wei Gongzi, although he was full of complaints and unwillingness, but in the end, he was still moved by Zhou Shi to take refuge in Chen Sheng.

Soon, the city tower sounded the roaring drums, in the city gate, a team of Chu troops ran out quickly, holding Changge, lined up on both sides, after the army array, the sound of military music echoed, Chen Sheng in Cai Ci, Wu Guang and others accompanied by the slow march, almost to the front, Chen Sheng arched his hand and smiled: "The descendants of the Wei State come to vote, this king welcomes you, everyone, please inside!" ”

"Thank you King Zhang Chu for your hospitality." On the side, Zhou Shi returned the salute, and Wei Ji and others escorted the family with three hundred dead soldiers, and slowly walked towards the city.

Soon, an inconspicuous carriage, the curtain was lifted, Kong Xiuyun revealed beautiful eyes, she looked at the sergeants lined up on both sides of the city, and couldn't help sighing, when will the war end......
