Chapter 238: Sacrificial Wine
"Report, Holy Father, there is a young scholar outside the camp who came to defect, saying that he is willing to serve the Holy Father, and also said that he will bring information in the city of Hangzhou, and, well, the last general can't remember." A young herald entered the big tent to report it, but he was halfway through his speech, so much so that he forgot what the scholar had said.
Fang Lana's face was dark, and even the joy of hearing that a scholar had come to defect was a little less, but he felt even more urgently, the herald in front of him was his fellow countryman, and he followed him from the beginning, if he went into battle, he was willing to go out and rush forward, but it was really a bit embarrassing.
Now the uprising has been more than two months, although the crusade to the east and the west has not stopped, but Fang La is a lot stronger, looks quite burly, used to be a farmer and a coolie, and he can't eat enough, that's called a thin, now it's much better.
Speaking of which, Fang La can still have a little relationship with Chen Shuozhen, Fang La was originally from Shezhou, and later lived in Muzhou, and when he rebelled, he was in Qixian Village, Shezhou, but he immediately commanded the army in Muzhou, why?
Because there was an emperor here! Which emperor? Naturally, it is Chen Shuozhen, the Emperor Wenjia who was also born in an uprising, although orthodoxly speaking, this is a thief and a wild man, but Chen Shuozhen has a good reputation, and there are not too many local legends, and he actually recognizes this female emperor in private.
In other words, Muzhou is the land of dragon diving, otherwise how could it be a woman's turn to be the emperor.
Fang La is also a propagandist and an uprising, and it is not harmful to pull Chen and talk about the banner of Emperor Wenjia.
Of course, it's just a banner, Zhou Shaoyu can't run over and say, hey, Xiaofang, Chen Shuo is really my wife, so you have to be obedient, tsk, this is a madman.
Of course, what should be fooled is still to be fooled, in fact, if Zhou Shaoyu moves Su Shi out, and his words have something to do with him, it will definitely attract Fang La's attention, Su Shi is very famous, and if he can have a relationship with him, Fang La will definitely make a big splash, and then hope that more readers will vote.
However, in this case, the Li family, who still don't know how it is developing now, will definitely suffer, Li Gefei's reputation will definitely stink, and Zhou Shaoyu will not be able to do this.
"Yu will see the Holy Father next week." Zhou Shaoyu casually changed his name and appeared in front of Fang La.
"Hahaha, you're welcome, come on, go move a chair." Although Zhou Shaoyu's face is too tender, how can he also be a serious scholar, except for the extremely timid guy who was forced to surrender in the past two months, Ning Yuan did not die in the other ways, let alone took the initiative to defect.
It's also no way, literati, don't dare to say anything about backbone, but the most important reputation, if Fang La is already powerful, then it's okay to say, but now it's a group of mud-legged people attacking everywhere, not many people are optimistic about the prospects, anyway, when the army is defeated, it is better to die early to leave a good reputation, people will also praise a sense of integrity and loyalty, not deserving or something.
"Thank you, Holy Father." Zhou Shaoyu thanked him, and then sat down unceremoniously.
"Zhou Langjun, can you tell me why you want to come to serve this Holy Father?" Fang La sat upright, trying to make himself look majestic and serious, from a poor background, he can't be expected to know too many rules, and he can't speak in a literate manner, which is already very good.
"Since ancient times, the literati have ruled the country, does the Holy Father think so?" Zhou Shaoyu did not answer the rhetorical question.
"Huh? Well, yes, yes. Fang La was stunned for a moment, almost didn't react, then nodded, and then shook his head when he was still shaking his head.
"However, I expect that among the Holy Fathers' army, there are no scholars who have taken the initiative to serve, so do you know why?" Zhou Shaoyu said, someone just poured tea, picked it up and took a sip, frowned, what kind of taste is this, decisively put it down and didn't drink it anymore.
"Why?" Fang La is also curious, brother, I have laid down dozens of counties now, and the territory is not small, but there are still no literati to vote, are you so optimistic about us?
"First, the Holy Father's Uprising has only been around for more than two months, and the time is too short and the foundation is unstable."
"Second, the efficiency of the imperial court is slow, even if the Holy Father has made enough reputation in the southeast, but in the eyes of the imperial court, although it is valued enough, but after all, it is not in the eyes, the Holy Prince's defeat so far is only the local soldiers who have never been on the battlefield, yes, everyone is waiting and watching, and when the imperial court faces up to this matter and sends a large army, whether the Holy Father can continue to win."
"Third, although the Holy Father has captured the city of Fuzhou, there is still no big city that can really be used as a foundation, and the future is bleak, at least at this moment, it is not worth investing."
"Fourth, the Holy Father once burned down the Confucian Temple, which was a great shame for the literati, who believed that the Holy Father could not treat and reuse the literati well."
"The Five ......"
Again, Fang La, who listened to it, nodded more than once, it made sense, it was very reasonable, but as for the matter of the Confucian Temple, Fang La smiled, it can be regarded as a loss and a gain, the corrupt officials are not from the literati, and burning the Confucian Temple can be regarded as increasing morale and buying the hearts of the people at the bottom.
"Of course, in fact, to put it bluntly, the strength that the Holy Father is showing now is not enough to convince people." Zhou Shaoyu finally said.
"Is it enough to take Hangzhou?" Fang La said bluntly.
"Not enough, if you want to be convincing, you must do your best to conquer the southeast counties, but Hangzhou is a big city after all, but a land, Hangzhou, the imperial court will inevitably shake, and quickly raise a large army to come to conquer, yes, the Holy Father should buy time, before the imperial army to conquer, take Jinling, occupy the southeast half of the wall, take advantage of the geographical advantage to draw the river and defend, in order to have the capital to compete for the world."
Well, all the southeastern counties and counties and the rivers and rivers were all thought up by Fang La after he conquered Hangzhou, and Zhou Shaoyu just said it as a strategy in advance.
In fact, now Fang La hazy already has some ideas, and when he was said like this, he suddenly became brighter, and then he was overjoyed, although this guy is young, he does seem to have some ability.
But then, I saw Zhou Shaoyu smile slightly, and said: "At that time, the next family will respond with the whole family in the north to help the Holy Father......"
Zhou Shaoyu began to brag, what family has lasted for many years, how much wealth the family has, how many soldiers and horses can be made, anyway, bragging, don't exaggerate too much, Fang La can still go to the north to verify it.
Fang La's eyes bulged, and he co-authored and had a family, so he thought he would defect to him, but since he only responded after he was going to conquer Jinling, it means that he is still not optimistic about him now.
Whether it's true or not, Zhou Shaoyu does have some ability to be true, it is necessary to reuse Zhou Shaoyu, not to mention that there is likely to be a big family in the future, just the posture has to be put out, you see, I am so important as a young man, why are you hesitating?
So with a wave of his hand, under Zhou Shaoyu's proposal to finish wiping, he was given the position of a military advisor sacrificing wine, this official position was still established by Cao Cao, and the person who held this position was Guo Jia, who was known as this ghost talent. It's just that later he avoided the name of Sima Shi and called it a military sacrifice wine.
Fang La is very happy, Cao Cao, Xiaoxiong, Zhou Shaoyu is as smart as Guo Jia, and then compared him to Cao Cao? Very good, very good, I like it.
