Chapter 135: Meng Changlan
"Dad, Changge, your faces don't look good."
Meng Changlan, who was sitting in a wheelchair with a pale face and a blanket on his legs, subconsciously asked after seeing his father and sister coming back.
Meng Wu and Meng Changge, father and daughter, raised their eyes and looked at each other for a moment.
Meng Changge told Meng Changlan about Fang Cai's 1510.
When Meng Changlan heard this, her eyebrows raised, quite surprised.
Father was seen through by the Chen Dynasty?
"What do you think about this?"
Meng Wu looked at Meng Changlan and asked for advice.
Although Meng Changlan can't fight for the Meng family like Meng Changge, Meng Changlan is extremely smart, and his contributions are no less than Meng Changge's.
After thinking for a moment, Meng Changlan raised her eyes lightly and said softly: "It is feasible." ”
Chen Chao is right, as long as neither side says anything about this, no one will know that the soldiers of the Qin State are mixed in the Daji army.
Wearing Daji armor and waving the banner of the ever-victorious army, who would know that this army was the Qin army?
What's more, this is a good thing for Aki.
With the Qin army joining, the battle will only end faster.
Daji got cheap, will he still confess the Qin people?
The results are clear.
No.
"There are 300,000 bandits in Pingyi City, and there are only 60,000 troops in the hands of the Chen Dynasty. Meng Chang sang.
It's hard to say who wins and who loses this battle.
Meng Changlan disagreed, and analyzed: "Although my sister and father can rest assured, the Chen Dynasty previously broke 50,000 bandits with 5,000, although it was borrowed from water conservancy, but this person is a capable and far-sighted person, he attacked the bandits' flank, and the front was carried by the Daji defenders of Pingyi City, even if he couldn't win, there would not be much loss." ”
"Alright, that's it." Meng Wu made a final decision, looked at Meng Changge and ordered: "Changge, this matter is handed over to you, you personally bring three thousand crossbowmen, and enter Yunzhou to assist the Chen Dynasty in fighting!" ”
"Yes."
Meng Changge wished for this, she had already wanted to open the meat.
Although bandits are not hard-core, they must be very fun to bully.
As soon as Meng Changge left, only Meng Changlan and Meng Wu were left in the house.
Meng Wu, a burly veteran of the Qin State, sat down opposite Meng Changlan, and then frowned, thinking.
"Father, is that him? Prime Minister Daji, did he really come to the Yunzhou battlefield? Meng Changlan asked in a low voice.
Meng Wu didn't say anything, just nodded.
It's a default.
After a long time, Meng Wu took a deep breath and said:
"In this way, we have to think long-term and find a way to get rid of the Chen Dynasty, this person is too terrible, Yunzhou this trip, if he seizes the military power of Daji, my Qin country is in danger."
This is also the reason why Mengwuzhi Kaimeng long song.
If he said this in front of Meng Changge, Meng Changge would definitely not agree.
Meng Changlan had a different opinion on this, and said: "Father, this time is different from the past, and the Chen Dynasty cannot be eliminated at present. ”
"Why?" Meng Wu was puzzled.
"Chen Chao is really terrible, he is invincible in the Daji court, and now he dares to take risks alone for the sake of military power, and goes deep into the dangerous land of Yunzhou, this kind of open-mindedness, the world is rare, my father is not wrong to worry, once the Chen Dynasty seizes the military power of Daji, Daji will only become stronger under his leadership, and it will be more difficult than ever for my Qin State to go east out of Hangu."
"But father, don't forget, Chen Dynasty's move will only cause a greater backlash from other officials in the Daji court, especially those military generals in Daji, the generals will not allow the Chen Dynasty to have military power, and neither will the Daji Emperor."
"If there is a contradiction, the two sides will fight, and Daji will be more chaotic than before."
"If we get rid of the Chen Dynasty, won't we make wedding dresses for others?"
After hearing this, Meng Wu nodded silently, "That being said, this opportunity is definitely the best opportunity to get rid of the Chen Dynasty, and it will be a pity if you miss it." ”
Meng Changlan then said: "It is indeed a good opportunity, but Chen Chao has many masters around him, and he has a winning army in his hands, so it is not easy to get rid of him...... It's better to take this opportunity to strengthen my Meng family. ”
"Father's voice in the Xianyang court has become weaker and weaker in recent years, and my father can't just take care of Daqin, and ignore the hundreds of people in our huge Meng family."
Meng Wu sighed, helpless.
Mengwu's Mengjia army is not a descendant of Xianyang, and at best it can only be regarded as a local nobleman.
Therefore, Meng Wu did not have the right to speak in the court.
This time, troops were sent to assist the Chen Dynasty in the battle, and the Chen Dynasty promised to give half of the captured materials after the war.
These materials will eventually fall into Mengwu, and the pockets of the Meng family can be regarded as a disguised expansion of the Meng family, as long as the strength of the Meng family is getting stronger and stronger, they are not afraid of having no right to speak.
Meng Changlan is for the Meng family!
In her heart, she and her father Meng Wu are two completely different types of people.
In Meng Wu's heart, the Qin State came first.
But in her heart, the Meng family is always the first!
She wants her family, father, mother, brother and sister to live well in this world, and on this premise, she will think about other things, such as the Qin State.
"Well, just do as you say, after all, you've never made a mistake in your decisions over the years." Meng Wu waved his hand and got up to leave.
Meng Changlan sat quietly, lowered her eyes and slowly tasted tea, and there seemed to be brilliance flowing in her eyes......

Sending Meng Changge away, Chen Chao asked Hou Ji to bring the two craftsmen over, he had something to ask.
These two craftsmen are also considered to be immortal, and they have been staying in Yongguan City since they were rescued from the water by Chang Shengjun, but unlike the bandit captives, the treatment of the two of them is much better.
There were two steamed buns at every meal every day, and although they still couldn't eat enough, this was already the best food they had eaten in the past few months.
Since falling into the hands of the bandits, their lives are worse than death every day, and if they do not like the bandits, they will be severely beaten.
If you haven't been killed, it's already a blessing from God.
And here, not only will you not be beaten, but you will also have steamed buns to eat every day, as if you have returned to your own home.
Lifted to the city wall by Hou Ji, the two trembled and knelt down in front of Chen Chao.
"You are convicted!"
Chen Chao turned his back to the two of them and stood on the city wall, so he asked in a stern tone.
The two lowered their heads and swallowed a mouthful of saliva, kowtowing like pounding garlic:
"The villain is guilty, the villain is guilty......"
The siege crossbow came from their hands, and was used by bandits to attack the city, if the city is broken, they are all sinners, and they will be punished with the strictest punishment after the war, and it is not too much to punish the nine clans!
The two of them were almost knocked over, and Chen Chao called the two to come forward and pointed to several siege crossbow carriages sunk in the mud under the city.
Now, soldiers are pulling the ballista out of the mud.
"Siege crossbows, did you do it?" Chen Chao asked.
"Exactly!"
The two nodded in response, glanced at Chen Chao, and one stepped forward and tried to say:
"Back to the general, the villains are also forced to help the bandits make this thing, the villains have no malice, before the bandits attacked the city, the siege crossbow was damaged only once, it was the hands and feet of the villains."
"Oh? It's you. ”
Chen Chao remembered it, and everyone was wondering at that time, how could the siege crossbow be collectively muted after the second round of salvo fire?
It turned out to be the hands and feet of this group of craftsmen.
"Why do you want to do it?" Chen Chao asked.
"Returning to the general, the villains are Daji people, they are good citizens, and they don't want to help the bandits, but the villains' families are in the hands of the bandits, and I ask the general for forgiveness for what I did before."
Hearing this, Chen Chao pondered for a moment and said:
"You were forced, General Ben understands very well, and after the war, General Ben will personally help you explain, forgive you for your innocence!"
When the two heard this, they were overjoyed and kowtowed.
It's just a gesture, Chen Chao doesn't care.
"Now, to give you a chance to make meritorious contributions, I don't know if you want to?"
"General just give orders!"
Chen Chao pointed to the siege crossbow under the city: "Fix them ......"
