Yu Wenshu smiled slightly: "Because you really didn't pay less, to be honest, last time you showed mercy to my two sons, just on the one hand, if you are like Li Hun, you think that you are kind to me Yuwen Shu, you can break the contract and break the money, then the old man will definitely let you know how powerful the old man is." ”

Wang Shichong said with a smile: "Yuwen Dashuai, don't forget, my Wang Shichong started as a businessman, but not an ordinary businessman, I am a big businessman, if the business wants to be big, you have to be willing, willing to be willing, willing to give up, there is a gift to get, I Wang Shichong is the most money, and then I have a little talent, but what I lack most is connections, family background." I used to think that I could get ahead by relying on my ability, but Gao Ying and Yang Su made me understand one thing, that is, the sons of a big family like them can't look down on me, a foundationless Hu Shang, who can promote me Wang Shichong, except for the same Yuwen Marshal who is not noble enough, who else is there in the world? ”

Yu Wenshu nodded: "You finally made this clear, no wonder you didn't throw yourself at Yu Zhongwen or Li Yuan, both of them are descendants of the Zhu Clan, and they will only look down on you more than Gao Ying and Yang Su." Thinking about it this way, you really only have the old man as a big tree to rely on. ”

Wang Shichong smiled slightly: "Yes, so the marshal and the last general, it can be said that it is a match made in heaven, we have common interests, and we also have similar backgrounds, there is no last general to provide you with a steady stream of funds, in front of the supreme to protect your position, I am afraid that you will not always be in charge of the military power of the Great Sui." ”

Yuwen Shu Zhengse said: "Okay, General Wang, you have indeed helped the old man a lot over the years." The old man also knows these things. I didn't promote you less. At least, I haven't been like Yu Shiji and Feng Lun, who have been saying bad things about you in front of the Supreme, we really take what we need. ”

"But now that you have passed the most dangerous time, the Supreme no longer wants to get rid of you as he did when he first ascended the throne, and even trusts you more than the old man, in this case, the old man can rely on saying bad things about Li Yuan. Regaining military power, you can also take one step or even two steps, become a general or even a general of a certain guard, and become a general of the same level as Xue Shixiong and Lai'er. At that time, you won't have an idea about the position of the boss? Your old man knows his methods, and he is really a little jealous. ”

Wang Shichong sighed: "Yuwen Dashuai, no matter how bad your reputation is, your Yuwen family is also a long-lasting Guanlong Jiangmen family, and I, Wang Shichong, have great ability." My parents were also businessmen or civil officials, and it wasn't until my generation that I began to join the military. If you want to get ahead in Guan Long's family, your ability is secondary, and your family background is the most important, you are right, I want to be a general of the Sixteen Guards, or even a general, but that is also the limit of my Wang Shichong in the military world, if you want to go further, it is impossible, not to mention anything else, it is the hearts of the generals of Guan Long, and I will not be able to accept it. ”

The corners of Yu Wenshu's mouth hooked: "But you can give money and make friends with the generals, as far as the old man knows, in addition to partnering with the old man to make an accident, you and Yang Xuangan, Xue Shixiong, Laihu'er, Wei Shichong and their families, there are also financial contacts." ”

Wang Shichong smiled slightly: "Those are just ordinary friendships, so that they will not suppress my upside, but even so, they are still lukewarm to me. I relied on your big tree to enjoy the shade, how could I have the idea of replacing it? Our Wang family doesn't even have a county, and if we want to really lay a solid foundation, it will take at least two or three generations of hard work. ”

Yu Wenshu's brows widened, and he nodded with satisfaction: "If General Wang really thinks like this, then it is naturally great, it seems that we can continue to cooperate." But I have one last question, Li Yuan's status is noble and popular, if I come forward to defeat him, it will be my Yuwenshu grudge against the Guan Long family, who will come to me? Besides, I reported Li Yuan, what good is it for me? Are you so sure, the Supreme will definitely hand over the position of the Great Sui Coach to me again? You must know that the Yang family, the Xue family, the Cui family, the Li family, the Wei family, these Guanlong families are all qualified. After all, I am the general of the defeated army who has had a collapse in the Sasui water. ”

Wang Shichong smiled and waved his hand: "Yuwen Marshal thinks too much, the Great Sui still has an absolute advantage over Goguryeo militarily, as long as you are not greedy for merit, thinking about eating the entire Goguryeo in one go, but choose to take Liaodong step by step, and then use it as a base for advancement, attack Goguryeo itself in the south, and send partial divisions to sweep its north and west respectively, then within three or five years, it can be done, which can be done by any general who has been in battle for a long time, not to mention Yuwen Marshal you." ”

Yu Wenshu squinted his eyes slightly, and stroked his long beard with satisfaction, thoughtfully.

Wang Shichong's eyes flashed, and he continued: "As for Li Yuan, he is the leader of the Guanlong nobles, when the commander was in charge of the Great Sui Army, more than half of the Guanlong family could only show favor to the commander and take the initiative to vote for you out of practical considerations, but now that you have lost your military power, these people will go to fight Li Yuan." ”

"I heard that Feng Lun sent an envoy to Beji this time, Li Yuan sent his second son Li Shimin to escort him, and there were thirty or forty sons of the Guanlong family who volunteered to follow Li Shimin, which shows that the people's hearts are back, and now Li Yuan has no military power in his hands, these people have taken the initiative to serve, if the Supreme gives Li Yuan the command of the army one day, then the commander wants to bring down Li Yuan again, but it will be difficult!"

Yu Wenshu gritted his teeth: "The old man's friendship with the Supreme began when he was the king of Jin and the great Sima of Yangzhou Xingtai, and it has been nearly thirty years now, which is not comparable to Li Yuan." ”

Wang Shichong smiled slightly: "But Li Yuan and the Supreme are cousins after all, and this blood relationship is here." Besides, the two sons of the handsome man colluded with Feng Lun last time to frame the last general, won't this kind of thing leave a shadow in the heart of the Supreme? Since you took charge of the army, you have placed your cronies and those who have asked you for money everywhere in the army, will not the Supreme be vigilant? Dashuai, there are some things, and it's better not to break them at the end. ”

Cold sweat began to break out on Yu Wenshu's forehead, and he barely squeezed out a smile: "General Wang, what you say, the old man will think about it carefully, thank you for telling the old man these things, the old man will find a good time to make a statement to the Supreme." ”

Wang Shichong nodded and gave a military salute to Yuwenshu: "I hope that after the official is reinstated, the marshal will not forget what the last general did for you today, and the last general will be waiting for your good news in the Eastern Capital." (To be continued.) )
