Chapter 760: Change
Thinking back on this day's experience, Fang Wen was still in a cold sweat, "I think Dragon King Xue still needs a military advisor." ”
"Why? It's enough to have you. Gu Shenwei sat in his chair, alternating between extreme lucidity and extreme numbness caused by excessive fatigue, and he had not been rested for several days.
Fang Wen really didn't want to admit this, but he had to tell the Dragon King the truth, "I'm not arrogant, but I really can't adapt to too many intrigues, I prefer to think about the plan for the Dragon King in a year, three years, or even ten years, that's my specialty." ”
"Then tell me about it. Gu Shenwei was really interested in this topic, and even his mind was a lot more excited.
Fang Wen said casually, he didn't expect the Dragon King to listen to it now, and coughed twice in embarrassment, but this was not a problem, he had indeed thought deeply about it, all he needed was to organize the language.
"Regardless of the future situation in Beiting, it's time for the Dragon King to consider the reaction of the Central Plains. ”
"Well, I heard that Wei Song really wants to take the Western Regions as his great achievement. ”
"Wei Song will make a hindrance from it, but he doesn't matter, no matter how ambitious he is, it is impossible to surpass the general outline of the Central Plains. Since ancient times, the Central Plains has adopted a policy of restraint towards the Western Regions, and the core is to spend the minimum cost to ensure that the Western Regions will always stand on the side of the Central Plains, at least remain neutral, and the greatest strength of the Central Plains will still be used to defend the Northern Court. ”
"I'm afraid that the North Court is destined to split, and the Central Plains can free up their hands to deal with the Western Regions. ”
Fang Wen shook his head with a serious expression, "Do you remember what King Kua said?"
"The people of the Central Plains, the people of the Northern Courtyard and the people of the Western Regions will transform into each other. ”
"Yes, in the period of staying in the Dragon Court, I think his words are reasonable, Beiting and the Central Plains have suffered huge natural disasters [***], just a few decades ago, there was a civil strife in the Central Plains, and it almost collapsed, but Beiting failed to capture the Central Plains, and now that Beiting is divided, the Central Plains may not be able to occupy the grassland. If one side is weak, the other side will always benefit, but the cost of making the other party completely surrender is too great, and the Beiting cavalry will not find enough fodder to the south, and the Central Plains army will face a shortage of food in the grassland. ”
"What impact will this have on the Western Regions?"
Fang Wen shook his right index finger, "As long as no one is too provocative, the Central Plains will not send heavy troops to the Western Regions." ”
"But I won't give up on the Western Regions. ”
"Of course not, so I hope that the Dragon King will be ready, sooner or later you will have to accept the canonization of the Central Plains and nominally submit to the Central Plains Emperor, as for the fact - the Tiangao Emperor is far away, and the Western Regions is even more far away in the sky, and the Dragon King is still in power. ”
"Hey, I came to Beiting to ask for help in person, will I be ashamed to accept the rule of the Central Plains?"
"Not now, probably later. ”
Gu Shenwei was slightly surprised, "Why did the military advisor say this." ”
"I have a hunch. Fang Wen finally said his guess, "A large number of martial arts people from the Central Plains are likely to gather in the Western Regions, maybe there are already quite a few of them now." ”
Gu Shenwei raised his head slightly, and the little numbness in his mind was completely cleared, this was exactly what he needed Fang Wen to do, "The Kongtong faction and the Qingcheng faction came to Beiting to seize the head is just a rehearsal. ”
"And it's a coincidence that the Kongtong faction obeys Wei Song's orders, and the Qingcheng faction is instructed by the Luo family, and they are all connected to the Central Plains court, so I think this may be a strategy formulated by the Central Plains court. ”
"Get the most out of the least cost. ”
Fang Wen nodded, "With the Central Plains army standing behind you, the swordsmen will exert a thousand times more power." ”
"Kongtong and Qingcheng returned in vain, will it affect the decision-making of the Central Plains Imperial Court?"
"I'm not sure that there are supporters and opponents of a decision, and I can't make a judgment without understanding the strength and true purpose of both sides. ”
"Does the military advisor need to go to the Central Plains in person?"
"No, once the road is clear, I will send someone to the Central Plains to inquire about information, although I am not a qualified wartime military advisor, it is always useful, until the Dragon King finds a more suitable candidate, it is still difficult for him. ”
Gu Shenwei really wanted to communicate more with the military advisor on this issue, and Long Chuanyun reported in the account: "Caught back." ”
On the way to the main tent, Fang Wenshi asked, "The Dragon King has long known that the competition of the Holy King is a plan for the golden cicada to get out of its shell?"
"I'm just wondering why the Holy King, who is neither valiant nor good at fighting, and who has never shown kindness to his soldiers, suddenly made such a decision? Obviously, there is no one in his army who is an opponent of Azheba, but this is only speculation, so I did not tell you in advance. ”
Fang Wen shook his head with a smile, he was used to the Dragon King's style.
"Schuritu is good. When he was about to arrive at the main tent, Fang Wenshi suddenly said, "Even I can't see the flaw, I hope he won't turn his face with the Dragon King too soon." ”
The main tent was full of people, and they all made way for the dragon king and the military advisor, and the two quickly walked to Shulitu's side.
Shulitu had an exciting and unforgettable day, although he had not rested much for several days, he did not feel sleepy at all, and seemed to be more awake than the dragon king.
The mausoleum was a great shock to the Chamberlain, who would have revered him as the new Khan on the same day had it not been for Shulitus's refusal, and the Younger King now had supreme power in the Chamberlain, who had ordered the reappointment of officers and the consolidation of all armies into one, no longer distinguishing between the Chamberlain and the ordinary army.
Shu Litu knew very well the source of power in his heart, he left the position next to the "Wang Shi", the two stood side by side, regardless of superiority, on the left and right sides lined up several princes and generals in the army who surrendered during the day, and in the middle of the camp tent, stood the grizzled Shengyue King.
As soon as the king was defeated, he wanted to use the kings' army to buy time for himself to escape, but several princes surrendered to Shulitu as quickly as possible, without any fighting.
"The second grandfather left in too much hurry, and the rare birds and fine wine that he had collected for many years were just abandoned?" Shulitu was not loud, but the tent was silent, and everyone could hear it clearly.
King Shengyue was stunned for a moment, feeling unfamiliar with the title of "Second Grandfather", he stared at Shu Litu, and his gaze quickly turned to the Dragon King's face, "Horse Whip Luo Luo has pacified the frontier, and the 500,000 army will sweep through the grassland before you say it, and it won't be long before you are proud." ”
"500,000?" said Shu Litu, "The second grandfather counted both men and horses." ”
There was a sound of laughter in the tent, and the holy king was red-faced.
Gu Shenwei nodded to Shu Litu, motioned for the military advisor to stay, and exited the tent alone, he was obviously not needed here.
A few steps after leaving the tent, he heard the hoarse voice of the Holy King shouting "Old Khan King".
He didn't want to sleep right now, so he simply settled the few things that were unresolved.
The Qingcheng faction left the Dragon Court overnight, but handed over the hostages in their hands, the female slave that the old Khan had once mentioned, and the old man Mu and Tugou handed over Liu to the Qingcheng faction, and both were not satisfied that the matter had been resolved so peacefully.
The female slave is not a few years older than Xiao Yan, but her appearance is much older, and she feels incomprehensible about the "attention" she receives, but when it comes to Lord Gu in the Central Plains, she still has some impressions.
"Master Gu is very good...... Very good. The slave girl has not yet recovered from her panic, and her words in the Central Plains, which she has not been exposed to for many years, seem very stiff.
"You gave birth to him?" Gu Shenwei asked very directly, there were only two of them in the tent, looking at the old woman, he didn't feel any touch in his heart.
"Yes......"
"How many?"
"Two, two, one woman and one man. ”
Gu Shenwei was silent for a while, "Lord Gu and the Old Khan King are dead, there is no need for you to lie anymore." "He kept his voice as soft as he could.
The slave girl cried for a while before she said, "Lord Gu is a good person, but we don't have skin to skin, and those two children are not mine, nor are they Gu Da's." ”
"Whose is it?"
"I don't know, Master Gu asked me for help, I pretended to be pregnant, pretended to give birth to a child, that's all. ”
"Then how do you know that the child is not Master Gu?"
"I guess, Master Gu is not close to women, he is very serious, and he is ...... And he looked at the baby, not at all like his own child, I have a child, I know what a father should be like. ”
The old Khan King, the Henu, the Qingcheng faction, the female slave has been influenced by too many people, and what she said is no longer credible, Gu Shenwei has a way to squeeze out the other party's truth, but he didn't take it.
It was not his own mother, who trusted intuition more than words.
"Give her livestock, gold and silver, and get her out of here. After Gu Shenwei left the tent, he said to Long Chuanyun, and then he went to see Han Wuxian.
There was a strange smell in Han Wuxian's tent, and Gu Shenwei smelled very familiar, "You finally killed Han Qin." ”
"This is not Xiaoyue Hall, there is a lack of tools, and the medicinal materials are not complete, so I really can't figure out the tricks, so I have to kill them. Han Wuxian had some small regrets.
"Is Han Xuan really your daughter?"
Han Wuxian chuckled, "Does this have anything to do with the Dragon King? Our common goal is just to kill the Lotus Maiden, as for other things, it's best not to interfere with each other." ”
"Han Xuan is also a female Gu, but her function is different from that of Dubu King's granddaughter, not to kill, but to be killed. ”
A few hairs in Han Wuxian's hands were torn off, she blew away the broken hair in her hands, and said quietly: "Little Han Fen knows a lot. ”
"It has nothing to do with her, the Lotus Girl will not tell her such an important matter, Doctor Sun said that the Lotus Girl wants to find a method for making the female Gu, so I guess that's it. ”
Han Wuxian smiled, and the whole person lay down on the bed, looking up at the Dragon King, revealing an extremely charming expression, "Do you know the real reason why the disciples of Xiaoyue Hall betrayed me? I and the lotus girl will die, Han Xuan is my only hope, in order to cultivate her, I spent many years, she can provide the world can not imagine the powerful internal force, can make me ...... and the dragon king is invincible in the world, I am willing to share it with you. The Dutch girl guessed, but she didn't know how to use it. ”
Gu Shenwei didn't respond to this suggestion, "Nie Zeng and Tie Linglong are my people, and I won't allow you to get close to the two of them anymore." ”
"It's all up to you. Han Wuxian blushed like a little girl, "Dragon King Juggernaut...... All. ”
Gu Shenwei walked out of the tent, and Han Wuxian hummed a strange tune in a low voice.
The last person to be cautious this night was Liman, who had just returned to the camp to find out why the army of the King of Heaven had reappeared in the Dragon Court and pursued the Dragon King.
"Western Regions...... There are changes in the Western Regions. The sweat on Liman's face washed out of the mud ditches, but he didn't wipe it, "Prince Dodun formed an alliance with the remnants of Jinpeng Fort and King Yue, claiming that it was the Dragon King who killed the Old Khan King. There must be a misunderstanding in this, and we can explain it to Prince Dotun. ”
Gu Shenwei felt that it was time for him to return to the Western Regions.
