Chapter 016: The Struggle for Benevolence and Righteousness

Looking at Liang Luo's fake face, Gu Bingzhang had to admit that he had a bit of the shadow of Emperor Xianwu, suspicious and ruthless, but compared to Emperor Zhiwu, his ability was much worse! It's too cunning and insidious, and now I still feel chills in my back.

At Liang Luo's request again and again, everyone got up one after another.

"Guys, you're still ......"

Without waiting for Liang Luo to finish speaking, everyone hurriedly expressed their support for Liang Luo's decision, and there was no more objection! Gu Bingzhang also lowered his head.

Liang Luo deliberately glanced at Gu Bingzhang, and after seeing that he also lowered his head, he showed an imperceptible smile, at this moment he seemed to have eaten honey feces, and his happy expression was not easy to express.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Liang Luo hurriedly expressed his "attitude":

"Everyone, I think so, he is a common people! If we can take advantage of this to subdue the hearts of the Xiongnu people, maybe we can achieve the effect of surrendering the army without a fight, why not? ”

Everyone was silent.

In order to break the embarrassment, Liang Luo took the initiative to step forward, took Gu Bingzhang's hand, and said with a smile on his face:

"General Gu, can you also tell me your opinion. I am in charge, you are in charge of the army, we are civil and military, this Xuchang City can be impregnable, isn't it? ”

Gu Bingzhang tried his best to suppress all kinds of thoughts, and the thousand kinds of blood in his chest were already cold before they could be exported, and the exit turned into sonorous and powerful words:

"Back to my king, the general has no other ideas now, what my king has decided is a military order, and since it is a military order, we will abide by it!"

Liang Luo still didn't give up, and continued to ask:

"I decided to sell grain only from the level of subduing people's hearts, and I didn't seriously think about other levels, generals are especially good at military affairs, can you consider whether it is appropriate to sell grain from the level of using troops?"

A trace of doubt flashed in Gu Bingzhang's eyes, Liang Luo is really unpredictable, sometimes he is jealous of his ability, and sometimes he can think strategically and consider things quite thoughtfully, but now he can't understand him at all.

Just as he was confused, Xu Zhen spoke.

"King Qiqi, I think that if you look at it from the level of using soldiers, the king can't sell grain to the Huns!"

Liang Luo turned his head, glanced at Xu Qian, and asked angrily:

"What? Do you also know a little bit about the military? ”

Xu Zhen was not polite to him, and said with a smile:

"My grandfather once followed Emperor Xianwu to conquer the northern captives, and the official was the governor of the festival, and I was fortunate to learn a little bit from him, but it was enough to deal with the Huns!"

"Huh! The tone is not small, wow! Tell me why you can't sell grain to the Huns? Liang Luo turned his back and paced in the hall.

"The king doesn't know, almost everyone of the Huns is a soldier, even women and old people can get on the horse and wield a knife, when the grass is abundant, they and we are safe, if there is a natural disaster, they will go south to plunder, what to say to buy grain and farm, but to hide from the world!"

"But now that the whole territory of Shanxi has been captured by the Huns, maybe they really want to buy grain and farm land?"

Xu Zhitou told his views without humility:

"The king doesn't know, the Huns are now headed by Zhao Jiuyuan, and their internal bodies are resolutely opposed to sinicization, and it is absolutely impossible to farm, and Ulez, who led the troops this time, is even more against the Huns farming!"

Seeing that Liang Luo was hesitating, Gu Bingzhang couldn't care so much, he stepped forward and said:

"As far as the general knows, there is also a force of about 10,000 people under this Ulez, all of them are blue-eyed and red-haired, extremely tall eunuchs, this army is particularly cruel, very strong in combat, and the most unacceptable is ......"

Liang Luo hurriedly asked, "What is it?" What waves can a group of eunuchs set off? ”

"This army never brings food with them!"

The crowd was amazed, "So what do they eat?" ”

"Eat our people, eat our prisoners of war! Therefore, every time they go to the city, that place is a miserable scene of white bones exposed in the wilderness, and there is no rooster crowing for thousands of miles! King, you say that such an army will buy grain to grow? Who would believe that? ”

"General Gu is not bad at all!" Xu Zhen added.

"Gross! Vomit~" After everyone listened, the sound of vomiting was endless!

"Even so, there are also Xiongnu people growing food! I don't sell too much to him! ”

"King, you pity their people, but who will pity the people of my Han family!"

Liang Luo shook his head and said:

"Where the people are not the people, I never dare to forget the teachings of the sages, I will not give up if I can save one."

"King, the current situation is definitely not a petty conflict, but a life-and-death struggle between my Daliang and the Xiongnu and other foreign lands, and you can't be emotional?"

"But when I think of those Xiongnu people and Shanxi people starving everywhere, I really can't let it go!"

Seeing that Liang Luo was more and more stubborn the more he persuaded him, Xu Zhen had no choice but to take out the sage book and said:

"King, don't you hear the story of Song Xianggong's return from the defeat of benevolence and righteousness?"

Liang Luo not only didn't listen, but was very angry, he waved his sleeves and shouted:

"I have made up my mind to sell grain! If you say anything more, you will be punished! ”

"Yes!"

After speaking, he glanced at the ministers, turned around and walked to his seat.

"By the way, General Gu, it's up to you to sell grain, you can decide how much to sell and how little to sell, I have a headache, I'm afraid I won't be able to help you these days!" After saying that, he turned into the screen and disappeared!

Gu Bingzhang looked at the place where Liang Luo disappeared stupidly, and he fell into doubt again.

At this time, someone asked:

"General, today's advice from hundreds of officials is all loyalty, why is the king so angry?"

Xu Zhen smiled: "The king is angry, it seems that your exhortation has worked!" ”

Everyone was even more puzzled, how could it be effective?

Just as he was hesitating, a waiter came out from behind the screen and said respectfully to Gu Bingzhang:

"Your Royal Highness, my illness has not recovered, and it is difficult to manage the government for the time being, from now on, all government affairs in Xuchang will be attributed to Gu Bingzhang! You can take care of yourself, you don't have to report! ”

Looking at the direction in which the waiter left, Gu Bingzhang finally had a rough answer in his heart, but it was a chilling answer.

"General Gu, what's going on?"

Gu Bingzhang just said to himself:

"It seems that the king is really angry." As he spoke, his eyes were full of tears, and in an instant, he felt that it was dark in front of him, and he lost consciousness and fell straight to the ground.

When he opened his eyes again, he was lying in his house, surrounded by the generals.

"Awake? General Gu, you've finally woken up! Everyone couldn't hide their excitement.

"Harm, what am I?"

"You suddenly fainted in the temple, and this is what the king ordered his medical attendant to send you back?"

Gu Bingzhang touched his head, as if a 10,000-pound boulder was smashed on his chest, he looked around and muttered:

"Oh. What about the king? Is he okay? ”

"The king is sick, he is still very serious, and he can't get out of bed at present, and now that the general has woken up, there is hope for the hundred officials in Xuchang!"

Could it be that I am thinking too much, the king is really sick?

Just in doubt, Gu Bingzhang looked at it, the people who came today were basically his own generals, and there was a person in the crowd who was very conspicuous - Xu Zhen.

Seeing that Gu Bingzhang had noticed himself, Xu Zhen hurriedly strode forward from the rear and said:

"General, I am here to convey the king's message, the king has deployed the Eagle Yangwei army in Nantun, a total of 18,000 people, all handed over to the general!"

Looking at Xu Zhen with an expressionless face, Gu Bingzhang felt even more puzzled in his heart, what did this king want to do? So he only replied:

"Oh. Got it. ”

"Xu Zhi farewell!"

"You send Brother Xu for me!"

Xu Zhen returned the salute, took a few steps back, and left the Gu Mansion.
