Chapter 135: The monarch is dumb and unclear, and the courtiers are arrogant
"Is this really the border defense map of the Qi country?"
Emperor Song looked at the map in his hand and the information marked on it, and his face couldn't help but show excitement.
offstage,
Guan Zhong's expression was calm, and he said in a calm tone: "If Your Majesty doesn't believe it, you can send a fine saku to investigate." ”
"But it's better to hurry up, otherwise, if the Qi country is on guard, the position of the defense will definitely change."
Emperor Song's eyes narrowed slightly, staring at Guan Zhong.
Trying to see something on his face.
But after looking at it for a long time,
In the end, he turned his head and looked at Song Wangmei: "Song Aiqing, what do you think?" ”
In the beginning,
Regarding Guan Zhong's sudden defection,
Song Wangmei's first reaction was that there must be fraud in it.
The dignified prime minister of Qi country, how could he defect to another country because of such a trivial matter.
Although it is not without such a possibility,
But Song Wangmei just felt that there was a problem.
But
When she saw the defense map presented by Guan Zhong,
The doubt in my heart has disappeared by eight or nine points.
Mainly,
The deployment of the border between Qi and Song is almost exactly the same as what she investigated.
In this way, it can be directly ruled out that the information sent by Guan Zhong is false information.
So
Guan Zhong's defection is also very likely to be true.
dispelled the doubts in my heart,
Song Wangmei came to the center of the main hall, bowed to Emperor Song and said, "Your Majesty, the deployment map provided by Mr. Guan is completely consistent with the information that our army has carefully investigated. ”
"So...... The last general believes that our army should contact Zhao State immediately, and send troops immediately before Qi State reacts! Hit Qi Guo by surprise. ”
In the face of Song Wangmei's proposal,
Emperor Song hesitated.
Now the grain and grass are still being prepared,
The army is also rearming for battle.
This kind of large-scale war is something that can be fought.
Song Wangmei saw the other party's hesitation, and said in a firm tone: "Your Majesty, you can't miss the opportunity!" ”
"Now that we have the defense map of the Qi State, the army can completely drive straight into it and annihilate the main force of the Qi State in one fell swoop."
"At that time, Zhao Guo will assist us on the flanks, and under the attack from both sides, this battle will be won!"
"That'...... All right. ”
"I'm ready!"
Emperor Song's character is relatively weak.
Hesitant to encounter things.
The major military and political affairs in peacetime were all handled by Song Wangmei and Qin Hui.
Now seeing Song Wangmei's determined appearance, he can only choose to agree.
"Mr. Guan, during this battle, please also ask Mr. to stay in Kaifeng City for some time."
"Although Kaifeng is not as prosperous as Linzi, it also highlights the style of the Great Song Dynasty."
"After the Northern Expedition is over, I will discuss the merits and deeds together."
........
After Guan Zhong walked out of the main hall.
An imperceptible smile flashed.
Guan Zhong wanted to laugh,
I didn't expect the monarchs and ministers of the Song Kingdom to be so stupid.
For Zhao Gou, the emperor of the Song Kingdom, Guan Zhong has long heard of it.
The character is weak and incompetent, and he is hesitant to deal with things.
It's just a standard template for a faint king.
At that time, when Guan Zhonggang was summoned, he discussed the issue of faint monarch with Han Lin.
At that time, Han Lin said his various problems one after another,
For example, lustful, lazy, and like to enjoy are all problems that the faint monarch will not lack.
But Guan Zhong said that there was no problem.
opposite
As a monarch, the most important thing is to know people and use people's names, and secondly, when encountering things, they must be decisive, courageous, and courageous!
Don't dare to give it a try at a critical moment.
Just like Yuan Shao in history, the fourth and third dukes, sitting on Jizhou, Qingzhou, Bingzhou, and Youzhou.
The battle of Guandu waved 100,000 troops, almost forcing Cao Cao to a dead end.
But when Cao Cao burned the black nest, Yuan Shao retreated.
made the only and most fatal mistake after sending troops.
Faced with the loss of Wuchao in the rear and the Cao army camp in front, Yuan Shao chose to bet at two ends, and it was Zhang He and Gao Ran, who had already shown lack of confidence before setting off, who went to attack the Cao army camp.
And it's not a retreat like this, not once.
When Dong Zhuo entered Beijing, Yuan Shao had already retreated once, which gave Dong Zhuo the opportunity to control Luoyang.
It was precisely because Yuan Shao lacked the courage to make a decision in battle that he gave the country to Cao Cao.
And these qualities,
Han Lin has it all.
opposite
Zhao Gou, the emperor of the Song State, is not as good as Yuan Shao.
In the same way,
Not only the emperor can't, but even the monarch and ministers.
During this time,
Guan Zhong sent people to find out all the information about the surrounding neighboring countries and all the information that could be found.
Aside from those small countries,
Guan Zhong saw Song Guo's weakness at a glance.
The king is dumbfounded, and the courtiers are arrogant.
The courtier here is talking about Song Wangmei.
The ability is a little bit, but the heart is narrow-minded and arrogant.
Such a Song State has undoubtedly become Guan Zhong's target.
Compared with
Zhao Guo on the other side.
Although the monarch also has a little bit of various problems.
However, with the existence of Li Mu and Lian Po, Guan Zhong thinks that they will not be fooled so easily.
Plainly
I still think Song Guo is stupid.
It's a good deception.
As for the detailed plan, in fact, Guan Zhong had already communicated with Han Lin.
After getting Han Lin's nod, this began to be implemented.
The current Song Kingdom has obviously fallen into Guan Zhong's trap.
After the clapper,
Song Guo sent the relevant news to Zhao State in an expedited manner for 800 miles.
meantime
Preparations for the expedition are also stepping up in China.
Two days later,
With an army of 150,000 troops, Song Wangmei was the commander and sent troops to attack Qi.
After another day,
Zhao also sent troops to respond.
The 250,000 troops were divided into two routes, commanded by Li Mu and Lian Po respectively.
On one side was a partial division led by Lian Po, 60,000 soldiers and horses entered the Wei State, and the army was displayed on the border of Zhao and Wei.
Prevent Wei from sending troops to help Qi.
The other way,
Li Mu led an army of 190,000 and approached the Qi State.
As the two countries no longer hide, tear off the camouflage.
on the border,
All kinds of information were sent to Linzi like snowflakes.
But because Guan Zhong was in the Song Kingdom,
I didn't know who to show these secret letters to for a while.
The court of the entire Qi country has no one to coordinate the overall situation.
Han Lin didn't bother to bother with these things.
Turning a blind eye to the mountains of secret letters.
Throw it directly in the corner.
The rest of the officials were like headless flies, in a mess.
This chaotic situation,
fell into Ye Qingqiu's eyes, and he was about to hold back the smile in his heart.
