025, the wise man (below)
What Qiu You asked Cangyu to do was very simple, one was to become the sect master of Bujin Mountain or the acting sect master who actually controlled the sect, and the other was to let Bu Jinshan support the palace sheep to reset, and these Cangyu could agree. If Mr. Sanshui can't come back, Bu Jinshan really needs to set up another sect master, except for Cangyu, who else can control the scene?
It's just that Mr. Sanshui's life and death are unknown now, and Cangyu was ordered to guard the portal, so it's a little anxious to do it now. And Cangyu got a Lizhu and a few Langyu, and he could regenerate dragons and tigers for decades or even nearly a hundred years, and he couldn't help but have other thoughts, which had nothing to do with Gongyang or Yuxuan.
Yu Xuan breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It's really good that Elder Cangyu replaces Mr. Sanshui in charge of Bujin Mountain and supports Gong Yang to regain the throne." But as Mr. Qiu You just said, even if Gong Yang ascends to the throne, the Xiangmu Kingdom will not be able to hold it in the end, and sooner or later it will either be destroyed or surrendered, what is the point of this?"
Qiu You said with a solemn expression: "Next, is what I want to do with the two of you." Since the Xiangmuro Kingdom will not be able to hold it sooner or later, why doesn't Zimo take the initiative to surrender for Xiangjun all these years?"
Gong Yang sneered: "I can't keep it, it's just a possibility in the future, and no one knows how long it will take to happen." The Shaowu army only besieged the Xiangmuro country, and did not attack it in a big way, and he didn't want to pay that price. Zimo can sit comfortably on the throne, how can she be willing to take the initiative to surrender? What's more, even if everyone else can surrender, only the monarch cannot surrender!"
For ordinary people, there is no difference between being under the rule of Shaowu and under the rule of Zimo, and even the situation will be better, the Ba Mu country is not a foreign race in the first place, and the clans of the five countries are branches of the same root.
Only those powerful people who are attached to the prime minister are afraid of losing their original status, so they will restrain their subordinate ministries to be trapped in the remnants of the Xiangmuro country. If they surrender to the young man, they will lose their profits. But the biggest loss is Xiangjun himself. The lord of the city has surrendered, and there may be a chance to continue to be the lord of the city, but can the king still be the king if he surrenders?
Qiu You shook his head again and again and said: "Who said that the king can't surrender? If he can defend his country, he should hold it, but he knows that sooner or later he can't hold it, it is better to surrender early." ”
He spoke again. From the point of view of the monarch himself, in fact, the sooner he surrenders, the better. Because of the change of time and the situation. If Xiang Jun insists on resisting to the end, his fate may be no different from that of Zheng Stocks, and even if he wants to surrender at that time, it is unlikely that he will be able to surrender.
The greater the price that Shaomu had to pay to defeat the Xiangmuro Kingdom, the greater the value of Xiangjun's surrender to Shaomu, and the more benefits he could gain in the negotiations, and Xiangjun could take the opportunity to put forward various conditions for Shaomu and swear an oath to make an alliance. If Zimo is so much for Xiangjun. If the palace sheep surrenders as a prime minister, then the benefits belong to the palace sheep.
Yu Xuan nodded again and again: "Sir, I see that I am in it, but I can't see it so thoroughly." It is true that the sooner Xiangjun descends, the more advantageous it is, so that he can pay a greater price for less affairs and agree to more conditions. According to Mr. Qiu You, what requirements should we make to Shaowu, which is the best way to retreat in the future?"
Qiu You finally said his true purpose: "I want a remote fiefdom." Nominally, under the rule of the Bamuro State, in reality it is at large, no different from the monarch. At least more comfortable than it is now. At the same time, he also asked for more goods and slaves, and moved to a remote city, as if he was a king himself, and he had no worries about foreign enemies. ”
Yu Xuan was surprised: "How can there be such a place, even if there is, can Shao Wu agree?"
Qiu You replied proudly: "Of course." I happen to know that there is such a place, haven't you heard of Shanshui City? It is in the northern wilderness, ordinary people need to walk for ten days to reach, and the road is steep and rugged, and you need to rest at the post houses along the way. But Shanshui City is located in an open valley. Like the fairy city at the foot of Chiwang Mountain, there are many tribes in the nearby mountains, which have become increasingly prosperous in recent years.
Wouldn't it be much better for Xiangjun to carry a large number of goods and goods given by Shaowu and occupy this treasure land in this world, and now he is trapped in the remnants of Xiangmuro Kingdom and is surrounded by a large army?
Moreover, Xiangjun has abdicated at that time, and he is nominally a minister of Shaowu, so he no longer has to be at odds with Shaowu, and he can still pay taxes and trade for mutual benefit, but in fact he is not under Shaowu's rule, there is no better way to retreat than this, and Shaowu will definitely agree. As far as I know, at the time of the national war, Shanshui City also sent troops to participate in the war, and also burned the logistics baggage of the Shaowu army, and then retreated to the Northern Wilderness.
Because of its difficulty in trying to figure out, Shaowu did not investigate and punish him, but only sent envoys to appease him, so that Shanshui City was still nominally under the rule of Ba Muruguo, but in fact it was still a place that Shaowu could not control. Giving such a fief is just a favor, how can Shao Wu disagree? Besides, even if Shao Wu is given to Xiang Jun, Xiang Jun will try to take it for himself. ”
The palace sheep was surprised: "Do you need us to take it ourselves?"
Qiu You nodded and said, "Yes, now there is a lord in Shanshui City, and the city lord's name is Ruoshan, and he also rules all the tribes in that area. With only Ba Jun's edict, his people will not be willing to sacrifice Shanshui City, so Xiangjun first has to capture Ruoshan and Zhenyan his henchmen, and then replace them with Ba Jun's edict, and then he will become the lord of the Northern Wilderness. ”
Yu Xuan is much more stable than Gong Yang Laocheng, and he hesitated a little and said: "I have also heard of this place in Shanshui City, which was originally a place where the Qingshui clan established a walled city. Shanshui City is nominally called Chennagong, but it is an extraterritorial place in the wilderness.
As the gentleman said, the road to Shanshui City was steep and rugged, and the monarch could only appease and not conquer it with a large army. If we want to seize the city and occupy its land, how can we do it? If we gather the elite who follow Xiangjun to go to the conquest, not to mention the difficulty of logistical planning and transportation, as long as the other party cuts off the mountain road, we will have nothing to do. ”
Qiu You said with a smile: "Who said that we are going to raise a large army to attack? It is true that we need to use the elite who follow Xiangjun, but not to attack with great fanfare." Then Ruoshan City Lord, he didn't think that we would plot against the Northern Wasteland, right?
If Xiang Shaowu surrenders, most of the existing military formations will be dismissed and return to their hometowns, but they can stay behind the elite who follow Xiangjun, and then let Jinshan send a group of monks to help, pretending to be caravans and entering the city in batches. Shanshui City has no threat from foreign enemies, and its defense is lax on weekdays, so how can it be our opponent if Shanshan's men only have two patrol formations gathered from the barbarian tribesmen?
At that time, if you suddenly attack in the city, you will definitely be able to capture Ruoshan and occupy Shanshui City. Controlling Shanshui City is equivalent to controlling all the departments of the Northern Wilderness. At that time, the prime minister will have the feudal edict of the young affairs in hand, who can raise any objections, and there will be no worries from now on.
If Xiangjun and Lord Jianguo are still not at ease, I can not only ask the Cangyu Sect Master to send Bujinshan monks to help, but I myself will also accompany the two of them to go and personally take down Ruoshan. In this way, it is even more foolproof!"
As soon as he said this, Yu Xuan and Gong Yang finally completely put their minds at ease. It seems that Qiu You has already made a plan, and Ruoshan is far away in Shanshui City, of course, it is impossible to know that there are people here who are fighting this kind of idea. Qiu You's plan is to gather the strength of the elite and Bujin Mountain sects selected from the country, and it is a sneak attack, of course, he can deal with a city lord in the wilderness.
Qiu You's mind is not meticulous, if he changes the target, he may be able to succeed in dealing with whoever he wants. But Qiu You doesn't know the details of Ruoshan, and he doesn't know the origin of the tiger baby and his relationship with Ruoshan. The military formation of Shanshui City did participate in the national war at the call of the poor, and also burned a rear camp of the Shaowu army, but outsiders did not know that Ruoshan had seen Shaowu beforehand.
There is a disciple of Ruoshan Xiling in the Bamuro Kingdom, and there is a disciple of Ruoshan in the army, Lin Xiao, Qiu You actually wants to use Shaowu to fight the idea of Shanshui City, and thinks that Shaowu will send this favor. But from his point of view, it is not unreasonable to think so, anyway, there is no need for Shaowu to pay the price, let alone cause trouble to Shaowu.
Qiu You is even more unclear, Ruoshan has already broken through Dacheng cultivation, and now Granny Shui has also broken through Dacheng cultivation, and the couple sitting in Shanshui City are all masters in the world, even if he goes, he is not an opponent.
But at this moment, Qiu You, Yuxuan, and Gong Yang in the secret conversation feel that they are all happy. Gong Yang asked, "Mr. Qiu You, you gave the immortal elixir given by Lord Xingsha to Elder Cangyu, and you are willing to personally help Benjun seize Shanshui City. After paying such a big price, I don't know what to ask for, how can I thank you, sir?"
Qiu You also knew that if he didn't ask for enough benefits, it would be difficult to completely win the trust of the two people in front of him, so he smiled slightly and said: "I'm just doing what I think I should do, but if Xiangjun wants to thank me, I won't refuse."
After you become the prime minister again, you will not immediately be relegated to the rank of minister, but you will have to sit firmly on the throne for a while. As the king of the kingdom, you will reward me with whatever you want, and I will accept it with pleasure. After seizing the Northern Wilderness, I hope that Xiangjun can make me the lord of Shanshui City, and hand over Ruoshan and his henchmen to me. To be honest, I have some personal vendetta with them. ”
Gong Yang got up and saluted: "I see, this gentleman understands, it must be as Mr. wishes! When I become the lord of the Northern Wilderness, I will do my best to worship Mr. The goods I get from Shaowu and all the benefits in the Northern Wilderness!"
In addition to being happy, Yu Xuan didn't forget his worries, and he asked one last question: "Mr.'s plan is based on the premise that Sanshui and Zimo can't come back." But if they come back, and there are two masters by their side, Tiger and Xuansha, what should we do?"
Qiu You seemed to be very confident and smiled: "Come back and come back, what's the big deal? At that time, Bujin Mountain has been controlled by Elder Cangyu, how can Sanshui be Cangyu's opponent? As for the Xiangmuro Kingdom, a new monarch has been established, even if Zimo comes back, he will already be the first monarch to abdicate, and the overall situation in the country has been decided." As long as Peng Keng's couple does not interfere, no one can change anything. (To be continued......)
