The path of the villain is not easy

Chapter 333 Discussion
Changsun Ji frowned and was thinking about this matter. Wang Gang walked in from the door and said to Changsun Ji: "My lord, the banquet is ready. Staff Cheng has arrived. Mr. Guo has something to delay, but It should be here soon."

Changsun Ji nodded, now he is just a general of the guard, and cannot give Cheng Ping and Guo Yu any official position, and now he can only be recruited as an aide.

Changsun Ji stood up, walked from the study, walked through a bamboo forest path, and arrived at a pavilion.

There is a stone table in the pavilion, which is full of wine and meat.Two people are sitting at the table talking together.It was Cheng Ping and Guo Yu.

Changsun Ji walked over, and the two quickly stood up and saluted Changsun Ji. Changsun Ji nodded with a smile, and then waved his hands to indicate that the other party should not be too formal.

"I thought Mr. Guo would be the last one to arrive, but I didn't expect to be the last one now." Changsun Ji said with a chuckle.

"I heard that my lord invited me to enjoy the moon and drink, and also introduced a friend to me. How could I neglect such a good thing, so I came here in a hurry." Guo Yu also joked.

Everyone laughed and sat down in the positions of host and guest.

Although Guo Yu came to the capital before, at that time, Cheng Ping had already left the capital and rushed to Tongshan.So today is the first time the two meet.

Changsun Ji introduced the identities of the two of them, and the two stood up again and saluted each other, which means they have become friends.

Originally, there was nothing wrong with Changsun Ji inviting them to drink and enjoy the moon, but he just thought it would be a cleansing for Cheng Ping, and he would introduce the two of them to each other.

However, the matter of the barbarians in the Western Regions made him a little irritated. After drinking for three rounds, Changsun Ji had been thinking about this matter in the study, but now that he drank some wine, an irritability appeared unconsciously between his brows.

Seemingly sensing the change in Changsun Ji's mood, Guo Yu said softly, "My lord, what's bothering you, I think you seem a little depressed."

Changsun Ji smiled wryly and said: "It's nothing, it's just a trivial matter. I have some guesses, but I'm not sure. I didn't want to bother you, but if you ask me, I'll tell you. Help me think about it."

The two looked at each other, then cupped their hands and said, "My lord, please tell me."

Changsun Ji nodded, and then told the news that the barbarians from the Western Regions molested Xiao Yitong today, and then he asked Wang Gang to inquire about it, as well as all his own guesses and worries.

After listening to Changsun Ji's words, the two thought about it.Guo Yu opened his mouth and said: "People who are not of my race must have different hearts.

These people from the Western Regions have this kind of nature. When our army in the Central Plains is strong, they will scramble to submit to our feet. He will take the opportunity to avenge his revenge and send troops to plunder our borders. "

"Sir, then why didn't we completely incorporate the Western Regions into our country when we were strong and prosperous?" Changsun Ji asked with some doubts.

"My lord, I don't know. The Western Region is too far away from us, and there is a vast desert in between. If we send troops to the west, we will need to waste a lot of military and material resources, and it will be difficult to get the logistics supplies right."

"And we have a vast land area, so there is no shortage of land area at all. In addition, there is nothing in the Western Regions? We only produce BMW, beauties and wine."

"However, every year when they pay tribute, these countries in the Western Regions will bring a batch of special products such as BMWs from the Western Regions to the capital to fill this vacancy, and no one will be interested in the Western Regions."

"After all, even if it is a waste of manpower and material resources to take down the Western Regions and send officials to manage them, the geographical distance can be regarded as isolating the Western Regions, and what you get is things like BMWs and beauties. Since you already have If you have already obtained it, then there is no need to do this kind of thing again.”

Changsun Ji nodded. People in the Western Regions are not lacking in smart people. Just this trick alone can save them from a catastrophe.

"My lord's guess is that this matter is very likely to happen. Take precautions. My lord should make preparations in advance to avoid being caught off guard." Cheng Ping persuaded.

Changsun Ji nodded. He agreed with this very much. It is better to be more cautious in everything. After all, there is nothing wrong with being careful. Even if what he thinks doesn't happen, he can't lose anything.

"It is certain to be prepared, but it would be the best if we can avoid this military disaster. What can the two of you do?" Changsun Ji asked.

"Hehe, my lord, now Yan's domestic military strength is being dragged down by the rebels, and the whole country is at its weakest time, but the country has come at this time, which means that the country's national strength has been improved in recent years, and I think I You can no longer be attached to Yan."

"Since the country has moved this idea, unless Emperor Yan can wipe out the rebels extremely quickly, or there are major changes in the country that lead to the decline of national strength, otherwise this military disaster will be inevitable." Cheng Ping looked at Changsun Ji and said.

Changsun Ji sighed, and he also understood what Cheng Ping said. He said that when his own strength is not up to it, even if you have all kinds of schemes, it will be useless.

"Hehe, my lord, don't worry. Although there is no way to get rid of this military disaster, it is not too difficult to delay him for a while. If Emperor Yan can suppress the rebels within the time of delay, then this military disaster may also end here." exempt."

"Oh, what good plan does Cheng Ping have that can relieve my worries?" Changsun Ji looked at Cheng Ping and asked excitedly.

"Your lord, you only need to be tough on these countries, so they won't be able to figure out what's going on in the country, so they don't dare to act rashly. Although this suspicious strategy won't last long, as long as the country of Yan is careful about it, at least There is no problem in delaying it for another three months." Cheng Ping said softly.

"Then isn't this an excuse for the country? If the country publicizes this, the country of Yan will lose its moral advantage." Changsun Ji frowned and said with some doubts.

"Hehe, my lord, you're making a fool of yourself. The tougher we are, the less that country will dare to move. Besides, when did the country of Yan convince people by morality? The countries in the Western Regions didn't come down because they respected the country's morals. It is a subordinate state, but the national strength of Yan State.

If the Gou country dares to publicize this matter, it only needs to let the Gou country envoy disappear a few people at random when they leave the border of the Yan country, and the envoy group will automatically lose its position. "

Changsun Ji was taken aback for a moment, then laughed loudly and said, "That's right, that's right, I thought about it. After Emperor Yan suppressed the rebels, don't say that the country dared to publicize this matter, probably not even a word." dare not say."
