Chapter 949: Dong Dalang (II)
When Dong Kuang came, Sun Tu was leisurely boiling water to make tea in the hall, as the water in the pot boiled, he was pouring the translucent and hot boiling water into a small teapot, watching the tea move with the water, exuding bursts of fragrance, and his face also showed a calm expression.
As his status improved and he grew older, Sun Tu slowly became interested in some self-cultivation things. It's a pity that he is just a martial artist before and after the crossing, so he is unfamiliar with the facts such as dancing and writing, and in the end he can only choose two things to cultivate his sentiments, one is fishing, and the other is to make tea.
River fishing allows people to put aside the mundane and focus on the surface of the river and the fishing rod, and this tea can be used to relax the mood through a series of procedures, paving the way for the next big decision. Now that he is in Zhuozhou, he is not good at going out fishing at will, so he can only make tea.
This whole set of tea-making tools was still found by Sun Tu from the warehouse system, but it was easy to carry around, but it was a little too eye-catching to take out at this time, which made Dong Kuangdu's eyes change slightly. However, he was a calm and rational person who was almost indifferent, even if he felt that things were a little strange, he didn't ask questions curiously, he just hugged his fist: "I've seen General Sun, from now on, the safety here will be borne by Zaixia." ”
"It's good to say, it's hard for General Dong." Sun Tu smiled and pointed to the seat in front of him, motioned for him to sit down and speak, and said, "If you want to talk about it, I have to thank General Dong for saving me, and twice in a row." I'm ashamed that now I have nothing to repay but a cup of tea. As he spoke, he lifted the teapot and filled the small tea bowl with a puddle of green tea, and made another gesture of please.
Dong Kuang didn't hesitate, he sat down immediately, he was not afraid of burning the tea bowl, he poured the tea into his mouth in one sip, and then a pair of eyes stared at Sun Tu's eyes, although he didn't say anything, but he had passed on the doubts in his heart.
Sun Tu also picked up the tea bowl in front of him, blew it lightly a few times, and then sucked the tea into his mouth, and then said slowly: "General Dong feels a little strange, why did I name you to come to guard?" ”
"I hope General Sun will tell the truth." Dong Kuang's answer was as simple and powerful as the one he fired before.
"I think if I said that it was only for my own safety, General Dong would definitely not believe it." Sun Tu filled a cup of tea for both parties again, but this time the other party did not serve tea again, a pair of eyes were still staring at him for a moment, the meaning was already very clear, he wanted an answer.
"Even so, I can only tell the truth. General Dong, you saved me, my Sun Tu is grateful for his kindness, so naturally he will want to save you and invite you here, precisely for this reason. After a pause, he looked at him and said: "Because I believe that there will be drastic changes in Zhuozhou soon, and only by the cooperation of you and me can we keep ourselves and control the situation!" ”
"Huh, upheaval? Isn't it that the forces of your three kingdoms want to swallow my Zhuozhou? What does this have to do with my safety? ”
"Doesn't matter? I don't think with the shrewdness of General Dong can't fail to see that under the seemingly calm water surface of Zhuozhou, there is already an undercurrent. And once the undercurrent rushes out, it will inevitably be a monstrous wave, and then the entire Zhuozhou will not be protected, and it will be difficult to protect itself by relying on only a few thousand people. ”
Seeing that the other party's face finally changed a little, Sun Tu smiled again: "General Dong, in fact, you also know that you are in a delicate situation here, so you have always deliberately kept a low profile and did not dare to show too much." But you also need to know that sometimes your enemies won't let you go just because you're low-key, especially when things happen so suddenly, they can't protect themselves, and they have long been suspicious of you...... Even if you get along well with him on the surface, or even call him father and son! ”
This last sentence hit Dong Kuang's heart like a hammer, Rao is he has always been calm, and his face has changed sharply at this time: "You ......"
"Dong Gongzi doesn't have to be in a hurry to deny it, because the truth is not something you can deny, you know this, and there are a lot of people outside who know it. In the final analysis, the root of all this is only that you are the son of Dong Clown, and there are many inside stories between Pharmacist Guo and your father. For the sake of the internal stability of the Chang Shengjun, he can only keep you by his side for the past few years, and he has to pretend to attach great importance to trust, but what he thinks in his heart, I think you should know better than me. Why have you always been so low-key, and I didn't even know there was such a character as you when I wasn't here, and I wasn't here? ”
Sun Tu's words were like a sharp knife, slashing at Dong Kuang's protective film, and soon cut this layer of camouflage out of the cracks, making his mood more and more nervous, and he even forgot to deny and refute.
"If it weren't for those changes, he and his cronies would have been extremely reassuring to you. If there is no variable this time, you will still be his subordinate who regards him as a son and nephew, and the righteous father and the righteous son complement each other. But now, everything has changed, and in a few days, Zhuozhou will inevitably change, and at that time, he will no longer have to worry, there is a way to attack you, and he can also stain you as a misdelict afterwards, so that the old troops left by your father will not be able to avenge you. Of course, it is also possible that they will be completely eradicated like you by then, and I think you should know what Pharmacist Guo is, and once he does it, he will never leave any trouble. ”
Dong Kuang's face was a little pale, and there was sweat dripping down his forehead. He really didn't expect that one day he would be so embarrassed in front of a stranger, as if he had been stripped naked, and he would be looked at naked, and there would be no secrets anymore. This made his heart weak, and he didn't dare to continue to look directly at Sun Tu.
After a long time, he hoarsely said in his throat: "How dare you say that there must be a drastic change in Zhuozhou?" ”
With just this sentence, it can be regarded as admitting the correctness of Sun Tu's previous statements about him. He, Dong Kuang, Dong Dalang, the son of Dong Clown, has indeed been pretending to be obedient all along, and has always been hostile and wary of Guo Yaoshi! The two sides didn't tear their faces because of their own interests, and they have been acting separately all the time!
And Sun Tu is sure in his heart at this moment. Although he was seventy or eighty percent sure of what he said just now, after all, it was only inferred from the existing clues, and there was no definite evidence. But now, his worry can finally be put down, and his expression has become more and more solemn: "Isn't this unclear?" Now the forces of the Song, Liao, and Jin Kingdoms are all in Zhuozhou, but Guo Yaoshi has been playing the wishful thinking of the three families and has been unwilling to make up his mind. He seems to be smart with this hand, but in fact he is stupid, he is playing with fire and killing himself! Now that we know the true attitude of the other party, there is not much concern about the words.
"Just because of this decision of your father-in-law, you conclude that Zhuozhou will inevitably be in turmoil?" Dong Kuang's title couldn't be changed for a while, and he wasn't ready to change it.
"There is actually no problem with his ideas, the key is ability, and the ideas of the people under him. Do you think that after my tripartite envoy arrives in Zhuozhou, he will be obedient and obedient, waiting for him to make a final decision? Even the most certain side has to be prepared, let alone the other two. Now that Pharmacist Guo is acting so greedily, what do you think the three of us will do? Since Zhuozhou is so important, it naturally can't fall into the hands of his Guo Yaoshi and Chang Shengjun, how can it be controlled by someone he can trust, do you understand what I mean? ”
Dong Kuang's breathing suddenly became urgent: "You mean, someone has already colluded with your tripartite envoys?" ”
"And he must be an important figure in the victorious army, at least he has a certain amount of military power and the right to defend the city, and he is quite trusted by Guo Yaoshi!" Sun Tu's answer was categorical. And the more resolute his attitude was, the more the confusion in the other party's heart became stronger, and Dong Kuang even subconsciously picked up the tea bowl because of his uneasiness and swallowed the half-warm tea in one gulp.
Seeing this action, Sun Tu brought a smile in the corner of his eyes: "This is not my guess, but it can be known through facts." Since Pharmacist Guo had been guarding against our three parties in the early morning, how could the two sides of Liaojin find my residence and brazenly attack him? It may not be too difficult for the Liao people, after all, they have a few days to slowly find an opportunity, but what about the Jin people? They only arrived in Zhuozhou yesterday, and then they were able to accurately touch the door at night, this must have been someone to inform them of the details of the city, this is not early to collude with them, what is it? ”
Dong Kuang's face changed again, he knew that Sun Tu's judgment was indeed reasonable, and the people in Chang Sheng's army had already colluded with Guo Yaoshi and Liaojin behind his back!
Thinking about it carefully, this is also a very normal thing, after all, the situation of the Changsheng army has not been very good, especially in the past six months, Zhuozhou has almost become an empty city and a dead city, and the food is already in front of you, who doesn't want to find a good way out for themselves? No matter how loyal you are, you can't compare to your own survival.
"So in my opinion, his self-righteous sitting on the ground is completely a stupid manifestation of not being able to recognize the situation. If it were me, I would have already chosen a faction to take refuge, it would save a lot of trouble and save myself. ”
"What about you? Do you have a solution here? ”
"Well...... Sun Tu smiled, "It depends on whether you are wise enough, General Dong." Now that you and I are in good hands, what I can tell you is that as long as there is chaos, with the strength of you and me, we will definitely be able to occupy the initiative in the city, and it is not too difficult to replace Pharmacist Guo. But I don't know Dong Dalang, do you have the determination and courage to cooperate with me, and take the victorious army that should belong to you, no, the resentful army, back to your own hands? ”
In the end, Sun Tu's eyes were fixed on the other party's face, and he raised such a sensitive question like the poisonous snake that tricked Adam and Eve into stealing the forbidden fruit.
The answer is only in Dong Kuang's thoughts!
