Chapter 1082: Agitation
"This..." Zhai Qiang suddenly froze, Gan Mao's reputation was spread all over the world, and now he came to Wei to be so trusted by the King of Wei, and planned to hand over the defense of Daliang to him, which made him very uneasy.
Will the king let Gan Mao replace him and appoint Gan Mao as the prime minister?
Thinking about it, Zhai Qiang immediately bowed his hand and said: "King, there is something wrong with this matter, although Gan Mao is virtuous, but after all, he has just arrived in Wei State, and his mind is not clear, so he should not rashly entrust him with all the military affairs."
Moreover, the general Ni Liang, who is proficient in military affairs, fought against the famous general Shengzi of Qi in the past and gained the upper hand. And not long ago, in the battle of Huachu, he also successfully brought the army back to China, which is a good use of soldiers.
Therefore, the minister thought that Ni Liang would replace Xiwu and take charge of military affairs. ”
Seeing that Zhai Qiang was opposed, Wang Wei did not force it, and nodded in response: "What Xiangguo said is that Ni Liang can indeed be a general. However, I still believe in Gan Mao's widow, Gan Mao's teacher used to be an important minister of my Wei State, and Gan Mao has always been close to Wei State, since he served as Qin Minister, Qin and Wei have always been friends.
Now that Gan Mao is coming to Wei, the widow is not allowed to reuse it to make his heart clear. Therefore, as long as Gan Mao is willing to stay and assist the widow, the widow is willing to treat him seriously. ”
"The king is wise."
A few days later, Gan Mao arrived in Daliang, and Wei Wang did not hesitate to personally greet Gan Mao outside Daliang City, and then the two took a car together and returned to Daliang together.
Then, the king of Wei's chariot drove into the beam, and then entered the Wei palace, and finally the king of Wei and Gan Mao, who had a good conversation, entered a side hall, and when the two sat down, the king of Wei said:
"The gentleman is not stupid and is willing to stay to assist the widow, and the widow is very grateful. It's just that the Wei State was newly defeated, its strength was greatly damaged, and the widow was not long on the throne, and the hearts of the people in the country fluctuated.
At this time of crisis, hundreds of thousands of Chen soldiers of the Chu State were in the south, peeking at the beams of our capital. At this time, there were only more than 100,000 remnants of the defeated army in Daliang City, and the strength was far from being the opponent of the Chu State.
At this time, I don't know what Mr. thinks to do? ”
Gan Mao smiled when he heard this: "Why should the king worry about the Chu State!" Wei is a big country, hundreds of thousands of people with armor, although the loss of troops in Huaibei, but this did not shake the foundation of Wei, but there is only some damage, and it does not affect the overall situation of Wei.
Therefore, the minister thought that the Chu army attacked Daliang, not only was this not a crisis for the king, on the contrary, it was still an opportunity for the king. ”
"A widow's chance?" King Wei was stunned.
"Yes, it's the king's chance." Gan Mao nodded and said: "The current situation in the world is that the Chu State has defeated the Five Nations Alliance, the prestige of the King of Chu has almost reached its peak, all the countries in the world are afraid of Chu like a tiger, Qin and Qi have formed an alliance with the Chu State one after another, and the Han and Song countries are eager to go to the Chu State immediately to worship the King of Chu, this is the evidence."
It's just that everyone only saw that Chu won the battle of Huaibei, but ignored that Chu had been greatly weakened after being attacked three times in a row. This time, Chu sent 300,000 troops to Huaibei, but did not enter the army in the face of the empty Liang, but waited for the Wei army to return to the Liang, which exposed the fact that Chu was strong outside and weak inside.
Moreover, the minister also heard that the king of Chu comforted the dead and hanged orphans in Hanbei, and also exempted Hanbei County from taxes for five years. This move of the king of Chu not only shows that the king of Chu has no intention of fighting, but also exposes the fact that the national strength of the state of Chu is weak, the soldiers are tired, and the people are withered.
Therefore, the minister thought that although the current Chu State was powerful in Chendi, the current Chu State was simply unable to retaliate against various countries, and it did not have the strength to go north to attack Daliang. ”
Listening to Gan Mao's analysis, King Wei said in great surprise: "So the widow doesn't have to worry about King Chu's revenge at all now!" ”
"Exactly." Gan Mao nodded, and then arched his hand: "King, now is your chance." If all the countries are afraid of Chu today, and the ministers and people of Wei are also afraid and hateful of Chu, at this time, the king should unswervingly oppose Chu and show that he has no fear of Chu, so as to win the hearts of the people and the prestige of the world.
As long as the king can go against the trend of the world now, he will transfer troops from all over the Wei State to Daliang with great fanfare, and show the people of the world his determination to fight against the Chu State.
In this way, when the king of Chu saw that the king had made preparations in Daliang City, and at the same time he was afraid of the weakness of the Chu state, the king of Chu would definitely not dare to send troops to attack Wei.
At that time, the Chu army of Chen Di retreated without a fight, while the king of you won without a fight in Daliang. In this way, the kings of all countries in the world are afraid of the Chu State, and they have befriended the behavior of the Chu State, and the king's eyes are like a torch to see through the reality of the Chu State, then the king and the kings of all countries have been separated.
At that time, the king will definitely be able to gain great popularity in the world, and at that time, will the king still worry about the instability of the country and the invasion of other countries? ”
"This..." Wei Wangyu listened to Gan Mao's story, and couldn't help but be a little moved.
Xiang Guo Zhai Qiang said this before, and now Gan Mao also says the same, he thought about it carefully, and he also felt so.
After three successive attacks on Chu, it seems that the losses of Chu are even greater. The battle of Xiyi was a crushing defeat for the Chu state, the first battle of Chencheng for the Chu state was defeated again, and the battle of northern Han for the Chu state was still defeated although it was victorious. Therefore, after these three wars, the losses of Chu are far greater than those of Wei, with the weakness of Chu, although Wei suffered a fiasco in Huaibei, but he Wei has no reason to be afraid of Chu!
Thinking about it, the king of Wei was overjoyed and said: "Yes, now the widow does not have to fear the revenge of the Chu State at all, as long as the Chu people dare to come, the widow will dare to fight to the death with the Chu people under the city of Daliang." ”
Saying that, King Wei looked at Gan Mao and said with a smile: "Mr.'s words made the widow suddenly, King Qin doesn't need Mr., it's really a loss for the Qin country." After the widow repels the Chu people and stabilizes the country, the widow must worship Mr. as the prime minister. ”
When Gan Mao heard this, he immediately overjoyed and said, "King Xie! ”
On the same day, Wei Wangjun held a banquet in the palace and invited his ministers to attend the meeting to welcome Gan Mao's arrival.
After the banquet, Gan Mao returned to the mansion that the King of Wei had rewarded him, looked to the west and pondered:
"I traveled eastward, and when I passed through Fenyin, I saw that the garrison of Fenyin was already insufficient, and to the east of Fenyin, Puyang, Zhidi, and Anyi were all very empty, as long as the Qin army could successfully attack Fenyin from Xiayang (Shaoliang), it would be able to easily take Puyang and even Anyi of Wei.
Now that the king of Wei has been encouraged by me to resist Chu, and is ready to continue to transfer troops from all over the country to Daliang, in this way, Hedong will be further emptied. This time, the Qin army may be able to take Hedong and completely break through the blockade of the Three Jin Dynasty against the Qin State. ”
Thinking about it, Gan Mao was in good spirits, immediately sat on the side of the desk, took out a silk cloth brush, and then quickly wrote down what he had seen and heard along the way and his own countermeasures.
Then, Gan Mao summoned his disciple Cai Sui and said: "Quick, immediately send this secret letter back to the Qin State, and tell the king that the King of Wei has been instigated by me, and the second batch of grain to support the Wei State can be prepared." ”
"No."
