Chapter One Hundred and Twenty-Seven When the Flame Dragon will finally fly (3)
Chen Shou paused for a moment and said, "Your Majesty, I think that in the current situation, if our country advances, a hero like Zhong Hui may have made up his mind to surrender to one side and crawl at Sima Zhao's feet again."
"Now, if we keep our guard Yu Jing, Sima Zhao is not much older. Sima Zhao must be clear about Sima Yan's talent. He must have no time to be gentle, but he will be anxious to oppress Zhong Hui. Then under oppression, he often refuses to give up. At this time, the probability of surrendering to our country is 60%.
"It's been delaying this time, and it's another year in a blink of an eye. Judging from the information we have received at present, Sima Zhao's current situation may only be in one or two years. With his old age, there is no possibility of sending troops in the winter and spring seasons. In this way, we will be able to make peace in April and May next year. Our army has enough troops and horses, and we have enough food and equipment, so we are not afraid to attack at this time.
If we wait next summer and autumn, Xiliangzhou and even the Western Regions will be captured by our partial army, Zhong Hui will definitely hesitate, then Sima Zhao will likely send troops to suppress it. Take advantage of this time, our army will wait for the opportunity. Once the troops are sent, they will win the first battle. As long as the losses are not large, Zhong Hui will surrender to our country."
"At that time, Your Majesty will send the general to fight with most of the Wei army in the wild. As long as you win, Sima Zhao's old age will not be able to bear it and will die. At that time, the world will be in chaos. Your Majesty can take it calmly and occupy Yongliang. The world is already in Your Majesty's pocket."
"Your Majesty defeated me to the end. He received such a deep grace. How dare you not do your best to plan? Only my knowledge is so shallow. I only have this strategy. Please forgive me for your sins."
After saying that, Chen Shou gave another bow.
Yang Yi raised his face and thought for a while, smiling: "The more you keep calm, the more you are, the more you are, the more you are, the more you are, the third is the battle between the snipe and the clam. He will win the first battle and encourage his surrender, and defeat him in one fell swoop to determine the overall situation... The more you think about this, the more reasonable you are. Your talent is similar to the talent you stayed at back then, and he is indeed as insightful as fire."
Chen Shou's words reminded Yang Yi of the Three Kingdoms incident back then.
After the defeat in Guandu, Yuan Shao died of illness, and Cao Cao won consecutive victories in the attack.
The generals of the Cao army wanted to take advantage of the victory to defeat the two Yuans without considering the losses, but at this moment, Guo Jia, who had previously advocated advancing north, disagreed with the public and suggested retreating.
However, although the Yuan family was defeated, the Yuan family dominated the four prefectures with a profound foundation. Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang were in a hurry to oppress. They were brothers and would definitely fight together. Even if they were defeated, Cao Cao would suffer heavy losses. He said that after this battle, he would have to rest for a few more years. If the military use was temporarily suspended, they would have to strife.
Guo Jia suggested that Cao Cao pretend to attack Liu Biao in the south and "wait for changes."
Sure enough, as soon as Cao Jun returned to Xudu, news of Yuan Jun's change had already come.
Cao Cao took the opportunity to return to the north and defeated Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang. Because of Guo Jia's clever plan, the battle won easily and smoothly, with extremely small losses and little loss of strength, which eventually allowed the Cao family to obtain the foundation of northern hegemony.
Now, the same is true. The more urgent the ones are, the more they are, the more they are. Without absolute strength, whoever oppresses Zhong Hui first often forces Zhong Hui to turn to another side.
Thinking of this, Yang Yi had already made up his plan and said, "I originally wanted to send someone to lobby Zhong Hui. Please see if this situation is still needed?"
"Your Majesty, I think it's still necessary to lobby. I send someone to lobby and lure him with a high title and a generous salary. Only then can Zhonghui determine our intentions. If there is no one to send, he will be suspicious and fearful."
At this time, Chen Shou smiled and said, "Zhong Hui is a man with great ambitions and talent. Although he has the power of a hero, he has no heroic mind. He just doesn't have to be anxious to lobby, just let him know what we want."
As she said this, Yang Yi nodded and said, "You have even thought of this level, it's so detailed."
When a wise man is planning, a wise man does things, and when a college is trained, he can only cultivate a wise man. It depends on his talent.
Three days after Tao Ji was rescued, Sun Hao searched the surrounding areas of Jianye, but couldn't find it, so he issued an order.
"Looking at the Cangwu Tao clan, the Tao clan is a remnant of the Shi clan, conspiring to separatist vassals and colluding with bandits and bandits. I intended to make them regret it, but under the magistrate, the thief has no intention of remorse and is particularly resentful. He also intends to assassinate me. Now I am not a bloodthirsty person. Except for the twelve members of the Tao clan, those who interact with the Tao clan, if they abandon them, they will give up the evil deeds of the fugitive Tao Ji, and they can still forgive them. Otherwise, if they are verified, they will be implicated by the Tao clan, and such twelve people will be beheaded and abandoned."
Then he issued an order to everyone: "Whoever reports the whereabouts of the fugitive Tao Ji will be rewarded with a thousand gold medal, and will be given a thousand stone official position and a title."
In Jianye City, Tao Ji's wife, concubines, legitimate sons and illegitimate sons were all beheaded in public, their bodies were thrown out of the city and their heads were hung high in the square.
A Taoist temple on the outskirts of the city.
It is not close to the city and has mountains, not fertile fields, and it is naturally large in area. It is surrounded by pines and green bamboos, which is very quiet. A temple is located in it. There are all the fir furniture inside, with bright windows and clean and spotless. There is a picture of Sanqing hanging in the middle.
A Taoist boy poured tea for Zhuge Song and respectfully stepped out.
Zhuge Song was drinking tea and looking at the secret report sent back from his eyeliner, he sighed in his secret sigh that the King of Wu was also a hero, with ruthless means and was really straightforward to kill people.
But now the Taoist vein has decided on Allah, so Zhuge Song smiled, tore the secret report on his hand to pieces, threw it into the fire brazier aside, and gradually burned it to ashes.
The Tao clan, which has been crisscrossing Jiaozhou for hundreds of years, has experienced ups and downs, and can even be called one of the major tribes of the Wu Kingdom, was seriously damaged in this way. If we count, almost half of the clan members on the surface were killed.
When the ruler no longer cares about his face and tear his face, the so-called aristocratic family is nothing more than a chess piece in the hands of the ruler and lets him hold it.
Zhuge Song was also from a commoner family and had a status outside the country. All those involved in this matter were sent away. Naturally, the danger was not great, but he still couldn't help but feel a little afraid of these real people in power.
This time, Tao Ji was rescued and successfully connected with Yan Han. Many of the outer children were allowed to enter the Jinyiwei by En. It is said that the head sect really appreciated him, and Hui En rewarded several people into the inner sect.
"Senior brother, our people have already connected with the Jinyiwei again." Footsteps came from outside, and as he spoke, Lu Su had already stepped in.
Zhuge Song nodded and asked, "What do they say?"
"A special person has been sent here. When the person arrives, he will contact us." The junior brother replied.
Zhuge Song smiled slightly: "This is not at ease with us, I am afraid it is a trap, but if it weren't for such caution, I am afraid it is not at ease. It is us."
"Senior brother, is the situation of Tao Jun okay?" The junior brother was very concerned about this matter: "The remaining people in the Tao family were slaughtered. He has learned about this, right? Will there be any situation?"
"This is the real head of a noble family, and his mind is also amazing. Although he was sad, he understood the situation very well and did not do anything wrong.
With such a temperament, it is no wonder that he could have brought the Tao family back. He had been in Wu for so many years. If the King of Wu had not accidentally tear his face and suddenly attacked the Tao family, the Tao family might not have been so tragic."
Just a sigh, Zhuge Song didn't care much.
"A few days ago, I have personally visited the old envoy Tao. I have all the hiding places and the location is extremely hidden. As long as there are no traitors, the people of the King of Wu will not be able to find out where they go.
Huang Zuoping accompanied him, talking about poetry and books, playing chess... he could still bear it for a while.
If I just want to evacuate, I still have some difficulties these days, so I can only wait for the news from the Jinyiwei people over there before discussing it."
Sun Hao was indeed very resentful about Tao Ji's rescue. However, after searching for half a month, there was no news. No organization could continue to search for it without any result for a long time. The hearts of the people inside naturally became lazy and had to relax.
I haven't found anyone after searching for half a month. The New Year is approaching again, and the city is no longer nervous.
At the city gate, the search and restrictions on caravans and pedestrians have also been greatly alleviated. It is impossible for a fugitive to destroy the normal order and trade in Jianye City.
This is even less necessary for other prefectures and counties. The most important thing is that Tao Ji has already appeared in the Han Kingdom, which made the King of Wu angry again, but at this time he could not turn against Yan Han. He could only kill people to vent his anger, and searches in various places were also relaxed.
After the New Year, there was no inspection and the trade between the two countries returned to normal.
Wuchang Town, when Sun Quan built his capital here, it was also an important town in Wu. After the New Year, the weather was a little warmer, and there were more and more pedestrians on the streets.
An ordinary caravan headed towards Wuchang from the wharf.
More than twenty mule carts were filled with goods and were guarding dozens of people. They seemed to be a weak caravan.
The caravan arrived at the city gate and was stopped by Wu soldiers.
"Which caravan are you? Show the documents and receive inspection." The clerk said to the caravan leader.
The leader was a middle-aged man, a slick man, and he hurriedly stuffed some coins over and said, "Master, we are the caravans of the Zhuge family. These are important supplies collected from the Han Dynasty, and some are tributes."
"You guys, come and take a look." When I heard the Zhuge family and the tribute, the sectarian collected the coins and no longer made things difficult for me, but I still have to go through the motions that should be done.
The doorman said to the few people, and some soldiers walked over and checked the carriage.
"Lingjun, it's all goods."
"Well, it seems that you are really a businessman. Okay, let's go." The gatekeeper rushed to collect the money and saw that the caravan belonged to the national gentry, so he naturally let it go. The caravan leader waved his hand.
The caravan slowly passed through the city until he left the city gate and walked a mile south. The middle-aged man in charge of the team breathed a long sigh and said instructed: "It doesn't matter here anymore, speed up."
"No." The sound of wheels and hooves sounded, and the voices fell silent.
This caravan was like an ordinary caravan, selling the goods it carried along the way. Finally, after selling the goods in Jianye, he turned to the south.
This is the path that caravans often travel nowadays, buying goods from Yanhan, then selling them to Wu State, and then going to Jiaozhou to purchase grain and transport them to Han State.
For this reason, Yan Han built the Nanzhong official road early, and two large cars could be used in parallel, smoothly, and even four cars could be used together.
Until he bought grain, passed Jiaozhou, and entered Yanhan territory. At this time, another month passed. After entering Yanhan checkpoint, the caravan leader ordered: "Suspend for a while, and repair it on the spot."
After the middle-aged leader turned over from his horse, he waved to a few people and walked towards the secluded place.
"Envoy Tao and Mr. Huang, I have offended this journey, please forgive me." Most of the people in this team were ordinary friends, including Han and Wu, and there were also Jinyiwei. The middle-aged man in the team leader was the first army of the Jinyiwei. At this time, he spoke respectfully at an old friend in the caravan. The middle-aged man next to the old friend was looking weak, and was nominally father and son with the old friend.
This old guy is indeed old and doesn't work much on the road, but he is the guide who specially invited him from Jianye and even invited his son.
"Thanks to you this time, I was able to save my life. I should thank you for any offense or not.
Tao Ji was naturally very grateful to the group of people who saved his life. If they hadn't helped him, he would have died with his wives and concubines.
The Jinyi Guards bowed at this time and said, "I just did my best and I am sorry for not being able to rescue the others..."
Listening to the murdered people, even though the pain had been relieved, a trace of sadness appeared on Tao Ji's face.
"It's because my Tao family is not intimate and too arrogant. Thanks to the rescue, it's already a lucky person. Others...ah, maybe they deserve this."
After sighing, a murderous intent appeared in Tao Ji's eyes: "But my Tao family will not bleed in vain."
Speaking of this, I just stopped talking. It is not the time to retaliate now, but it depends on the Yan Han strategy and the current Han master.
"Old Tao doesn't have to be sad. As long as there is someone there, you won't be afraid of not having a chance. Moreover, we have already sprinkled our eyes inside and outside. If you need help in the future, please contact us. The above said that we will do our best to help the Tao family."
"Thank you." Tao Ji also gave a gift at this time, but thanked him. Although he knew that there was an order from above, the people who worked should control the degree of how to do it themselves.
There are also those Taoist priests. Although they know that the other party will help them, they will definitely have a purpose, but compared with the grace of saving lives, these are not important. Although the Tao family suffered heavy damage, they only need to be there, and most of their strength will still exist, but they have lost some wealth.
The most important thing about being a human being is mainly the loss of manpower in Jianye. For example, in other places, they were hidden early. The Tao family in Cangwu even promptly gave up their families to abandon money, land, etc. and rushed directly to the Han Dynasty.
I guess I have settled in the Han Dynasty now, and the Tao family in Cangwu may change to another county in the future.
At this time, there was a sound of horse hooves, from far to near.
The Jinyi Guards beside Tao Ji listened for a moment and whispered: "Eunuch Tao, this is our country's army. Next, they will escort you to Nanzhong. I will handle the rest of the aftermath, and Mr. Huang, who can walk with the old envoy Tao."
Tao Ji thanked again, Huang Meng thanked him at this time, and finally set foot on the land of Han. From then on, he became a Yan Han man, and he felt a little moved.
He heard a soft reminder in his ears. Tao Ji looked at the Yanhan official road at this time and saw dozens of riders galloping in front of him. The dozens of riders were wearing armor, with people and horses all in armor.
