Chapter 194: Yunmeng's Debate
The news that Chi You was imprisoned in the heavenly prison by Jiuli Ancestor because of his unauthorized use of the military rations of Yinshan Pass spread to the Yunmeng clan.
The patriarch of the Yunmeng clan, the Yanlong King, was very angry when he heard the news, after all, Chiyou was implicated in order to save the people of the Yunmeng clan from famine.
King Yanlong didn't expect that in order to save the lives of the people of the entire Yunmeng clan, Chi You had to use the military rations of Yinshan Pass as a last resort, such a benevolent and righteous act, not only did Jiuli Old Ancestor not reward him, but his old fool even indiscriminately beat Chi You into the heavenly prison.
"It's simply hateful, no wonder Jiuli has not made any improvement under the governance of this old fool, and it is still a plate of loose sand. It seems that it is time for Jiuli to change the winner. ”
Enraged, the Yanlong King immediately summoned the civil and military ministers of the Yunmeng clan to discuss the preparation of sending troops to attack Jiuli City.
Yunmeng Wenchen Yanhua heard the meaning of the Yanlong King, and hurriedly stepped forward to stop him: "Your Majesty, you must not act so impatiently, otherwise it will make Prince Chiyou's business achievements for so many years fail." ”
The Yanlong King asked, "What is the business of Prince Chiyou?"
Minister Yanhua replied: "What Prince Chiyou is running is to unite the eighty-one clans of Jiuli, reproduce the glory of Jiuli in the past, and lead the eighty-one clans of Jiuli to dominate one side. ”
King Yanlong recalled that when Chi You raised troops to conquer the eighty tribes in the past, he did not kill and plunder, but only besieged each tribe one by one, so that they could sincerely subdue Jiuli City, and had achieved the goal of uniting the eighty-one tribes of Jiuli, but despite this, the eighty-one tribes were still dissatisfied with Chi You.
It just so happened that our Yunmeng clan had a demon dragon to make trouble, and Prince Chiyou skillfully took the opportunity of Yunmeng to eliminate demons, and did not hesitate to know the law and break the law, and tampered with the military rations of Yinshan Pass, intending to buy the hearts of all ethnic groups and establish prestige, if it were not for this, it may not be that Chiyou would help our clan wholeheartedly.
Yanlong Wang Si understood the reason, and said: "It seems that Prince Chiyou's bet this time is indeed enough, but I don't know if his bet can make him get that rich return." ”
Minister Yanhua said: "Whether Prince Chiyou's bet can be repaid and get a good return depends on what you do, the king." ”
The Yanlong King said: "Yes, then you can tell me, should this king help Chi You avoid this catastrophe?"
General Qingping stepped forward and said: "King, when Yunmeng was in danger, Prince Chiyou was able to step forward and lead the three elders of Jiuli City to help Yunmeng overcome the difficulties. It makes sense that we should all help Prince Chiyou survive this catastrophe. ”
The Yanlong King pondered for a moment and asked, "I wonder what General Nuba thinks?"
General Nuba stepped forward and replied: "His grandmother's, as soon as I heard what this Jiuli ancestor did, I knew that he was a ruthless and unrighteous wreck, Prince Chiyou's behavior was obviously a move of great virtue and benevolence, he didn't reward even if he was old, and he also put Chiyou into the prison, the king, Prince Chiyou is kind to my clan, according to the will of the ministers, we should raise righteous soldiers, kill Jiuli City, destroy the fool of Jiuli ancestor, rescue Prince Chiyou, in order to repay the kindness of the past." ”
The Yanlong King asked Xiao Ran again, "I wonder what General Xiao Ran thinks?"
General Xiao Ran said: "No matter what the purpose of Prince Chiyou is to help my Yunmeng clan, in the eyes of the world, Chiyou is already a great benefactor of my clan, if I don't care about Chiyou being imprisoned, the world will regard my clan as an ungrateful person, which will damage the image of my clan outside, and no one of my clan will be willing to make friends with my clan in the future." ”
The Yanlong King said with some doubts: "But attacking Jiuli City, it is not so easy, in the case of the enemy is strong and I am weak, if you rush to send troops, if you don't do well, you will be burned, then Chiyou helped our clan at the beginning, is it necessary for our clan to take risks for this move." ”
Yan Hua said: "The king doesn't have to worry so much, we are definitely not alone. ”
The Yanlong King asked curiously, "I don't know what the mystery of Yanhua Aiqing's words is?"
"The king sent me as an envoy to the Hades and the Yao Clan, and during this period, the two patriarchs heard what Chi You did in the Yunmeng Clan, and they were all impressed by his promise and daring fashion.
They privately expressed their willingness to follow Chiyou sincerely, mainly because now the integration of the Yan and Huang clans in Huaxia is growing, while my Jiuli and Bayi clans are still divided and suspicious of each other. If this continues, sooner or later, one day nine, the Jiuli clan will be swallowed up by the Yan and Huang clans, and the Jiuli clan will cease to exist at that time.
The underworld and the Yao believe that if the Jiuli clan wants to unite today, regain the glory of the past, fight against the Yan and Huang clans south of the Yellow River, and keep the Jiuli lineage, only Chiyou can do it.
From this point of view, even if my Yunmeng clan does not send troops to rescue Chiyou, the Yao clan and the Hades will also send troops to Jiuli City, and in this way, why don't I Yunmeng use the reason of repaying the king of kindness and righteousness to go to Jiuli City to be the head of the king of Xingjun Qin.
Looking at the overall situation of Jiuli, in the near future, Chi You will definitely take charge of Jiuli's authority, and at that time, the king will definitely be deeply reused by Chi You and lead the Yunmeng clan to stand at the top of Jiuli's glory. ”
When the Yanlong King heard this, he thought for a moment and said: "Aiqing, this is to let this king bet on the future of the entire Yunmeng clan as a bet, if it is really as you say, the Yunmeng clan can indeed have a bright future, raise their eyebrows, and have unlimited scenery, but if we lose the bet, we will never turn over." All of you here are important ministers of my Yunmeng clan, you say, can we suppress this gamble?"
The slave replied rudely: "Since he is gambling on Chiyou, my Yunmeng clan is also gambling on it, what are you afraid of, it's a big deal that people are dead." ”
General Qingping said: "Whether it is for Yunmeng, or for the future of the entire Jiuli, the last general thinks that we should all send troops to rescue Prince Chiyou, and now we have taken advantage of the time and people, so the last general thinks that we can make this bet, and the odds of winning are not small." ”
The Yanlong King asked, "General Xiaoran, should my Yunmeng clan participate in this gamble about the rise and fall of our clan? ”
General Xiao Ran said: "The image of General Chiyou sacrificing his life for the people must have spread throughout the land of Jiuli, and now everyone has seen the growing momentum of the Yan and Huang clans south of the Yellow River.
The threat will make all the tribes have to let go of all the prejudices and obsessions of the past, so that everyone will have to stay close together to keep warm and unite to fight the growing ambitions of the Yan and Huang clans.
From this point of view, as General Qingping said, Chi You occupies the time and people, and is still a person who has attained the Tao.
The king, so the general thinks that this gamble is worth the risk. ”
Hades asked Yanhua again, "Aiqing, as the minister of my Yunmeng clan, is known as the Zhiduoxing of my Yunmeng clan, I don't know what our chances of winning this gamble are?"
Yan Hua replied: "Looking at the overall situation with the current situation, I think... We have at least a 70 percent chance of winning. ”
The Yanlong King smiled and said: "Seventy percent of the chance of winning is already a big probability, okay! This king has decided to send troops to Jiuli City to rescue His Highness Chiyou." ”
When everyone heard this, they saluted the Yanlong King and said, "The king is wise, and the cloud dream will be prosperous." ”
King Yanlong said impassionedly: "In this case, let's prepare our troops and horses, and immediately go to Jiuli City before sending troops to rescue Prince Chiyou, and help Chiyou to the throne of King Jiuli by the way, so as to conform to the hearts of the people of the whole Jiuli clan." ”
When Yanhua heard this, he hurriedly stepped forward to stop him: "Don't worry, the king, this matter needs to be considered in the long run." ”
"Aiqing, it was you who said that you were going to send troops to Jiuli City, and now what are you talking about in the long run, what kind of medicine is sold in your gourd?"
Yanhua explained: "Great King, now Prince Chiyou is only imprisoned in the heavenly prison by Jiuli Ancestor, and Jiuli Ancestor has not yet pronounced a sentence on him, if he sends troops at this time, it is inevitable to implement the truth of the population, give people a handle, and finally end up with a great reputation of rebellion, wouldn't it be worth the loss?"
The Yanlong King said: "But if we don't send troops, we will let the Hades and Yao clans take the lead, and in the future Chiyou's reward meeting, how can my Yunmeng clan be the first to take the lead? ”
"The king misunderstood Weichen's intentions, although we will not send troops at this time, but we can do things in front, and bring the future when Prince Chiyou is rewarded for meritorious deeds, my Yunmeng clan is still the first meritorious clan. ”
"According to Aiqing, how should we do things ahead?"
"According to the minister's wishes, we can send spies to Jiuli City first to monitor the movements of Jiuli City at any time.
Furthermore, I suggest that envoys be sent separately to contact the various tribes, and unite the forces of most tribes to wait for the best time to attack Jiuli City together.
In the end, it is to conform to the will of heaven and people, and put Prince Chiyou on the throne of the king of Jiuli, so as to end the century-old chaos of the eighty-one clans of Jiuli, unite and strengthen the momentum of Jiuli, and form an evenly matched situation with the growing Yan and Huang clans, so as to ensure the prosperity and stability of Jiuli. ”
