Chapter 23: The Holy Decree to Beiliang, the Horse Steps on the Rivers and Lakes, and the Sword Refers to the Academy?
The reason why Kong Sheng is so attentive to Beiliang is not because Beiliang is stronger than Liyang, Datang, Daming and other countries, nor because Beiliang is invincible in the world.
It's because Xu Xiao, the king of Beiliang, has the name of being slaughtered, except for the blink of an eye of killing, that is where Xu Xiao wants to conquer, then even if he kills 800 enemies and loses 1,000, he will fight to the end.
If you don't achieve your goal, you won't give up.
There are four famous generals in the Spring and Autumn Period, Xu Xiao is out of the forest tiger, Ye Baikui is the riverside Jiao, Wang Sui is the Jiantou python, and Gu Jiantang is the cave snake.
Ye Baikui of Da Chu is a Spring and Autumn soldier, and he has never lost more than 70 battles in his life, but it is a pity that Xileibi lost his family and country.
The use of troops by the king of Dongyue is the most unexpected, he can win the battle that is impossible to win, and he can also lose the battle that is impossible to lose, and he loses inexplicably, so he has the highest talent and the lowest achievement.
Gu Jiantang's use of troops is not as good as Ye Baikui and Wang Sui, but he has no shortcomings, he has never fought a big defeat, but the results are not small.
The four famous generals, the other three are better than Xu Xiao! But Xu Xiao is the only one who can step on the rivers and lakes and kill the world for the color change.
Xu Xiao's talent is the lowest, and he can't count the defeats he has fought!
But he was defeated again and again, and had the last laugh.
How unique is Kong Sheng's vision?
Before sending Zai Yuxi, who had the most quick thinking and the most outstanding eloquence, to go out to Beiliang, he had already made arrangements one step ahead in Liyang.
Kong Men's envoy left Yang, and the elite disciples who stayed in Tai'an City suggested to the emperor that he should order Xu Xiao, the king of Beiliang, to send troops to the north and point his sword at the Tang Academy.
Out of consideration for the long-term interests of the imperial court, Zhao Chun, the emperor of Liyang, agreed to Kong Sheng's suggestion after gathering his henchmen and discussing with Yang Taisui, Zhang Julu and others.
There are two reasons for this:
First, you can hand over the hole door.
Second, it can take the opportunity to weaken the power of Xu Xiao, the king of Beiliang.
After all, Datang Academy is not easy to mess with.
The strength of the master, that is definitely a level of Wang Xianzhi, Wang Lao Wei has the second name in the world, but who is strong and who is weak has to fight to know.
Although the master doesn't care about fame, his amazing array is definitely a meat grinder on the battlefield.
If it weren't for the two brushes, the academy would have been wiped out by all the big and small forces in the rivers and lakes.
What's their turn to worry about?
In addition, the most scruples of Confucius and several major empires are actually the mysterious Confucian new sage.
This person is said to be the master's senior brother.
But I have never seen the true face of Lushan.
The master is already the ceiling of this world's combat power, so isn't the senior brother who is highly respected by the master even more terrifying than him?
And Xu Xiao's subordinates are also innumerable, which makes Zhao Chun scruples.
If Beiliang continues to develop, over time, I am afraid that even the power of Liyang will not be able to control Xu Xiao.
If Beiliang and Datang Academy can be brought together this time, then for Liyang, it can also be said to kill two birds with one stone.
It seems that it is really good and harmless.
As for Datang's side, it must be operated by Kongmen.
A holy decree from Emperor Liyang left Tai'an City and drifted to Beiliang.
The emperor's holy decree and the envoy of Confucius almost arrived in Beiliang.
Li Xiao, who was holding the holy decree, sneered on his face.
"Zhao Chun's kid is really getting more and more useless, and he actually colluded with Kongmen."
"The academy isn't that easy to mess with."
"With the master in charge, the amazing array is a meat grinder on the battlefield, besides, in addition to the master, there is also a more powerful Confucian saint hidden in the academy."
Prior to this, Xu Xiao already had plans for Datang Academy.
Lao Huang's fake has been approved, and he has already left Beiliang to go to the academy.
This time, Emperor Liyang suppressed the small with the big and ordered him to send troops to the north and point his sword at the academy, didn't he want him to lose both sides with the academy?
After taking the holy decree, Xu Xiao didn't even have time to go to Tingchao Pavilion to discuss with the first strategist Li Yishan, and the messenger of Confucius arrived.
He brought with him a handwritten letter from the master of the Confucian Gate.
In the letter, Kong Sheng politely told Xu Xiao about the situation tomorrow.
After that, the most powerful Confucian leader, with his three inches of incorruptible tongue, listed the top ten benefits of Beiliangda Academy.
The meaning is clear.
If Xu Xiaoken sent troops to attack the academy, then the first thing he would get was the friendship of Confucius.
Secondly, you can make good friends with the two empires of the Tang Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty.
After the benefits are listed, then the disadvantages of not fighting the academy are discussed: first of all, Emperor Liyang has issued an order to send troops north to the academy, if he does not obey, it is a disobedience to the order.
That's a big sin.
If you are not careful, people can use this as an excuse every minute to frame Xu Xiao, the king of Beiliang, for bad intentions and want to rebel.
Then, Xu Xiao will directly offend Confucius and indirectly offend Datang and Daming for this.
Such a consequence can be said to be a hundred harms but no benefits for the King of Beiliang.
The messenger was faintly threatening.
Xu Xiao was expressionless, noncommittal in front of the envoy of Confucius, but took the emperor's decree and the letter from the master of Confucius, and walked to the Tingchao Pavilion.
Seeing that Xu Xiao, the king of Beiliang, was so indifferent, Zai Yu was angry in his heart.
But he didn't know that with Xu Xiao's temper, twenty years ago, the head on his neck had already moved.
Confucius sent him to show affection to Xu Xiaoxiao, move him with reason, and lure him to benefit......
There is only one purpose.
That is, he wanted to borrow a knife to kill people, and used Xu Xiao's hundreds of thousands of iron horsemen to step on the rivers and lakes again, leveling the Tang Academy, which was a thorn in the flesh.
However, Xu Xiao, the king of Beiliang, is not so easy to fool.
"Ahemβ"
"Yishan, guess what good things I brought you today?"
After sending the lobbyists of Confucius away, Xu Xiao went to Tingchao Pavilion to find Li Yishan as soon as possible, and while setting up the chessboard by himself, he also made a little joke with Li Yishan.
"Hehe, lord, you have brought me a problem, right?"
Li Yishan started to make tea and sat down in front of the chessboard.
As soon as Xu Xiao comes, there must be important matters to discuss, and it is not suitable for his subordinates to stay on the sidelines at this time.
"Hahaha......"
Before the start of the game, Xu Xiao took out the holy decree of Emperor Liyang and the handwritten letter of the master of Confucius and put them on the table.
"Sure enough, I guessed it."
As he spoke, Li Yishan opened the holy decree and the letter......
After reading the holy decree and the letter, a sneer appeared on Li Yishan's face: "It is indeed a difficult problem, Lord Wang, has the lobbyist of Confucius been beheaded by you?" β
"Hahaha."
"I didn't cut it, let him go back." In the midst of laughter, Xu Xiao began to play chess, telling the ins and outs of the matter while falling.
Then, Li Yishan's opinion was sought.
After listening, Li Yishan snorted coldly: "Lord Wang, Kong Sheng is planning to let us Beiliang be his front hooves, and first explore the depth of the new saint of the academy." β
"I know." Xu Xiao showed an unkind smile on his face.
"Then what is the prince's plan?"
