Chapter 238: That's the Real Victory
But after all, family affection is paramount, how could Xie Xun, as Dongling Shuo's uncle, not worry about Dongling Shuo's safety?
Now that Tanglin Shuo is going to the battlefield, some ministers who are not friendly with him must have thought that he was a little stupid, and they rushed to take the initiative to take risks.
So until after the next dynasty, Xie Xun did not give up completely. even went to the queen's palace and asked the queen to come forward to persuade her.
But the queen, firstly, she has long been unable to change Tanglin Shuo's mind, and secondly, it is something that the emperor has already decided, so she naturally can't say anything.
So even if the queen came forward, Tanglin Shuo never changed her mind.
In order to reassure the queen, Tanglin Shuo also said a lot of words to appease.
After Dongling Shuo appeased the queen, he went to Chu Nanyue's general's mansion with Wang Chang.
It's not for the sake of saying goodbye to other idle things, this trip is a special trip.
When Chu Nanyue saw the two of them coming together, he had already guessed their intentions.
And she didn't rush to speak, but took the initiative to ask Wang Chang first: "Lord Wang, have you said goodbye to the eighth princess?" ”
Wang Chang nodded to her: "General Lao Chu is concerned, I explained this matter to His Eighth Highness, and after saying goodbye, I came here with His Sixth Highness." ”
It turned out that when Fang Cai Dongling Shuo was talking to the queen, Wang Chang was talking to the eighth princess. They each explained clearly, and then they came to find Chu Nanyue.
"His Royal Highness didn't stop you." Chu Nanyue said. Her tone was not one of question, but of certainty. It can be seen that Chu Nanyue has already figured out Dongling Jue's temper.
Wang Chang showed relief and joy: "General Chu is right, His Royal Highness really understands me, and knows that I want to make a name for myself and prove myself." She said she would wait for me to come back and marry me. ”
"In this way, Lord Wang's good things are near." Chu Nanyue also smiled.
Wang Chang knew Chu Nanyue's words, which could be regarded as a pleading. Only if their army repelled the Huns as soon as possible, could Wang Chang come back as soon as possible.
"Lord Wang really has good luck, but unlike me, he has to be dissuaded by everyone." Tanglin Shuo laughed to himself.
"His Royal Highness the Sixth is the pride of the sky, and the queen has more concerns." Wang Chang said.
Whether it is Wang Chang or Chu Nanyue, who would not know the queen's thoughts? But in fact, there is nothing wrong with the queen's mind. After all, no matter who among them is the queen, in her position, she will not be willing to take any risks with her only concubine.
"That's fine." Hearing this, Dongling Shuo shook his hand, "My matter has been settled, they won't interfere again, Lord Wang, let's take care of the business here first." ”
After speaking, Wang Chang also became serious, and the attitude of the two of them also made Chu Nanyue more and more serious.
"General Chu, today in the court, you must remember every word of what your father said. The Xiongnu State is eyeing us, and it seems that we cannot hesitate. According to General Chu's intentions, is it tricky to deal with them? Tanglin Shuo asked.
Chu Nanyue sat on the chair, in fact, she already had an estimate in her heart about Donglin Shuo's question, and when she answered it at this moment, it was naturally like flowing water, and it was done in one go.
"Your Royal Highness Six, you and Lord Wang must also understand in their hearts that the combat power of my Tanglin is not bad, in fact, there are advantages and disadvantages to fighting for five years. This disadvantage is what those ministers are afraid of, such as the loss of labor and money, and the fact that the soldiers are likely to be tired and not as strong as they were back then. Chu Nanyue listed them one by one.
Immediately after, Chu Nanyue's words changed: "But on the contrary, there are also some benefits." Since the Tanglin army was still in a fighting state before, the tension had not been completely lifted, which gave the army time to enter a new battle more quickly. On the other hand, the Xiongnu country, they have not fought for many years, even if the cavalry is refined, it will be worn out by a comfortable life, so just looking at the past, Tanglin does not need to be afraid of them. ”
As soon as Chu Nanyue said this, Dongling Shuo clapped his hands and said, "General Chu seems to have the same thoughts as the two of us. Although it is said that it is a tiger, the Xiongnu may not be called a tiger, and in the general situation between the DPRK and China, it seems that they are too terrible and powerful. ”
"Exactly." Chu Nanyue's words were concise and to the point.
And Tanglin Shuo remembered the attitude of Fang Cai Chu Nanyue in the court, so he couldn't help but ask carefully, and said: "General Chu is very much in favor of me and Lord Wang going, they all think that it is a risk, and it may cause a catastrophe in Tanglin, but General Chu supports it and speaks in front of the emperor for the two of us, General Chu has always been safe, this time there are special considerations, right?" ”
He didn't think that just by relying on feelings and friendships, Chu Nanyue would insist on agreeing with him.
If she really did this, she wouldn't be Chu Nanyue.
Chu Nanyue smiled and replied: "I am talking to Lord Wang for His Royal Highness the Sixth, and I think there is nothing wrong with you going to the battlefield, this is because the intention of the Xiongnu State is not to invade Tanglin itself at all, but to plunder the border. ”
Tanglin Shuo then narrowed his eyes: "General Chu is saying that they have a loud thunder and a small raindrop, creating a terrifying atmosphere on the surface, in order to make us jealous, we dare not attack easily, but in fact, the Xiongnu State did not dare to really invade Tanglin at all, just to take the opportunity to encroach on the small land on the border of Tanglin?" ”
"His Royal Highness Sixth is a person who understands, and some words are not suitable for Taiming to say." Chu Nanyue nodded and replied.
But even if Chu Nanyue didn't say it, Tanglin Shuo completely understood it under her hint.
The Xiongnu State can be said to have no chance of winning against Shangdonglin. And since the Xiongnu just wants to embezzle its interests for a while, then, when Tanglin reacts, it will inevitably retreat very quickly.
The emperor wanted a quick victory, presumably for this reason.
In ancient times, the conquests all paid attention to the division of justice. If Tanglin takes this opportunity to sweep the Xiongnu Kingdom, the Xiongnu State is afraid that it will bite back, saying that Donglin relies on the strength of the country and bullies others.
Tanglin was originally only for self-defense, but if he was labeled like this again, it would be really embarrassing and lose his dignity in front of other countries.
Chu Nanyue opened his mouth and said meaningfully: "Sixth Highness, Lord Wang." Your Majesty trusts you in putting this battle in your hands, but I think that this time the focus is not on military affairs, but on morality. When you send troops, you must not let the Xiongnu take the opportunity to make a name for themselves and pick quarrels and provoke trouble. If the charges of injustice can be returned to the Xiongnu, it will be a real victory. ”
Tanglin nodded clearly, and naturally took Chu Nanyue's advice to heart.
As for Wang Chang beside him, he has never had the opportunity to contact this aspect, but listening to Chu Nanyue's explanation at this moment, he was addicted for a while, begging Chu Nanyue to continue to give him a point.
Chu Nanyue always felt that Wang Chang had some wisdom, so she took the trouble to explain it to him.
Dongling Shuo saw that Chu Nanyue and Wang Chang spoke very harmoniously, and felt inexplicably uncomfortable, but he felt that he was too narrow-minded. This Wang Chang is already going to become his brother-in-law, why is he so jealous?
