[Wei Nie] Vertical and horizontal killing
Chapter 56
The horn of the Chu army sounded at this moment.
Before the farm disciple had time to recover from Guigu Zongheng's swordsmanship, a pair of cavalry suddenly rushed into the formation and disrupted the position of the formation.
The general of the Chu State in fresh clothes and red horses rode his horse and stood beside the two of Guigu, and laughed loudly: "Whether you are 4000 or 40, my Chu army did not fight against Qin's [-] troops. No fear. How does your farm compare yourself to Qin Jun?"
The farm disciples were disrupted in the formation, and the formation of Di Ze had already shown signs of instability.
But at this time, Tian Mi, the only one who could be regarded as the hall master, has disappeared, and several disciples in the branch hall look at each other and don't know what to do.
Gai Nie said: "General Long Qi, the power of breaking the formation remains the same as before."
Long Qi smiled and cupped his hands: "Thanks to Mr. Gai and Master Liusha for mentioning Di Zezhen's heart and mind, we can get twice the result with half the effort."
Gai Nie replied: "The Chu army really knows the art of war, and I admire it."
Wei Zhuang didn't speak, he just glanced at Gai Nie without any trace.
Those eyes were filled with contempt for Ge Nie's hypocrisy.
Gai Nie received this look: "Tian Hu uses so much manpower to deal with you and me, the dispute between the six sages will definitely be restrained."
The corner of Wei Zhuang's mouth curled up: "It was indeed a wonderful performance."
The leading farm disciples had just had their swords cut off by Wei Zhuang, and now they only held torches in their hands to bluff, and gritted their teeth: "Damn it, you Guigu Zongheng actually set up an ambush and pretended to escape just now."
Wei Zhuang's face was full of sarcasm, he was always too lazy to talk to people he despised.
Long Qi looked up to the sky and said with a smile: "There is a saying in the art of war, and soldiers are never tired of deceit. The owner of Guigu is well versed in the art of shielding armor. The mountains here are gentle and surrounded by trees, so how can you not guess that there will be an ambush? If you don't set up an ambush, how can you lure me out?" Waiting for an ambush? It's just a game of praying mantises catching cicadas, with the oriole following behind."
The farmer's disciple became furious: "I can't wait until I was ordered to hang and kill the two Guigu who are the head of my farm. What does it have to do with your Chu army? What are you Chu army doing here?"
Long Qi said succinctly: "Save people."
The peasant disciple gritted his teeth: "Save people? Why? Even if you fight to the death tonight, you must avenge our master!"
These words had just received a few echoes, when suddenly there was a muffled thunder on the hill.
At this moment, the moon is bright and the stars are sparse, and the sky is clear, where is the dull thunder?
Long Qie kindly explained the confusion for everyone when the farm disciples looked around: "The two of Guigu Zongheng have already speculated that there may be an ambush here, how can our Tenglong Army fight unprepared battles? The surrounding mountains and forests have already been sent To lay out the brimstone, you don't need to fight to the death with swords, as long as I give an order, the brimstone can be ignited—”
The farmer's disciples panicked for a while, their steps began to be messy, and the formation was no longer sustainable.
The leading disciple is still trying to restore the situation: "This is the land of the farmer's family. You can arrange it as you say? Even if the two of them guess it, it's impossible."
Long Qi raised his head: "With this person, there will be no objection to deploying sulfur in the enemy's rear."
The farmer was startled, and before he could ask carefully, he could already smell the strong sulfurous gas on the tip of his nose.Many people pointed at the person standing on the cage where the Mohists were imprisoned and shouted, "It's Ji Bu! It's Ji Bu!"
The chief disciple of the farm family has lost his mind. He thought he was in control, but unexpectedly, he fell into someone else's scheme and was caught in someone else's game.
The matter has come to this point, the power of life and death is no longer in his hands, what should we do?
Long Qi saw that everyone had thrown away their helmets and armor at this time, and it would be better not to take advantage of the victory to pursue at this time, so he rode his horse forward and approached the leading disciple of Kui Kaitang: "I will give you one last chance, let open."
……
There is no suspense in the situation, the hunters are rounded up instead, and the trappers are trapped forever.
Although the disciples of the peasant family without a leader have more courage, they still lead their families with their own land and fields, and they are unwilling to give up their family concerns easily.
If you don't want to die, there is only one way left - to give up hunting Zongheng.
Everyone retreated three feet away, watching Guigu and the prison cart drive away, feeling extremely annoyed.
Gai Nie used the ghost valley sound transmission technique to hear the sound: "The woman in Kui Kui Hall just left."
Wei Zhuang also replied in a secret voice: "I believe someone has set up a treat for her on the way."
The convoy traveled to a secluded and open place, and Gao Jianli, who was seriously injured, had time to ask: "What is going on here?"
Long Qi laughed loudly and said: "All of this is a scheme set up by the two Guigu and us." After speaking, he turned to Zongheng and the other two, and said: "Everything is exactly as Mr. expected, exactly. .”
Wei Zhuang interrupted coldly: "Although the man was rescued, the matter is far from over."
Gai Nie clasped his fists at the crowd, without needing to say anything, everyone knew that the two of them already had a plan for the next step.
After this battle, Long Qi became more fond of the two of them, so he didn't say much after hearing this, and signaled his subordinates to bring their mounts.
Gao Jianli and Big Iron Hammer suffered serious injuries, especially the loss of internal strength. After waking up, they were weak even to speak, and urgently needed treatment.
The Chu army and Zongheng led by Long Qie escorted the two back to the Mohist stronghold, and Taoist Xiaoyaozi delivered internal energy to the Mohist to heal their injuries.
Here, Xiaoyaozi and Zongheng are the most powerful, Xiaoyaozi Yungong and Guigu are protecting the Dharma outside the cave.
The entrance of the cave was slightly concealed, and the two hid in the shade under a nearby tree.
Wei Zhuang looked at the silent mountain, he was not satisfied with this attack: "The people behind the scenes are hidden, it is not something to be happy about."
Gai Nie was not as pessimistic as Wei Zhuang said: "At least in the case of the Mohist school, the person who arranged the arrangement got the result he least wanted." The road to confusion brings variables.
Wei Zhuang squinted at him: "When did you become so short-sighted?"
Gai Nie said: "Xiao Zhuang, when we were in Tooth-Eating Prison, the seemingly seamless situation of the Hidden Guard was only broken by a small mechanism."
Wei Zhuang frowned: "Speaking of Shadow Secret Guard, what do I think of Zhang Han?"
Gai Nie was silent for a moment and said: "According to what I know, Zhang Han is in the Xianyang Palace as the young mansion, but apart from his duties as a secret guard, he may still be able to mobilize the Xianyang lieutenant army."
This is unexpected information.
Wei Zhuang said: "When the lieutenant army was the core of the capital's defense, it would not be used lightly unless it was absolutely necessary. From this point of view, Zhang Han has even more trust in Yingzheng than Zhao Gao, who is in the trap?"
He has no doubts about Gai Nie's judgment. Gai Nie's ten years in Xianyang Palace will not be wasted easily.
"There is Meng Tian outside the empire, and Zhang Han inside; there are Li Si and Meng Yi above the court, and Zhao Gao's net in the inner palace. Yingzheng's empire seems to be solid and indestructible." Wei Zhuang's tone was full of Slightly sarcastic, the meaning is obvious.
Ge Nie leaned against the thick tree trunk with his eyes closed, half of his face was hidden in the shadows.
Wei Zhuang's breath suddenly approached.
Gai Nie opened his eyes, and suddenly said: "Those who worry about the outside attack the weak, and those who worry about the inside attack the strong."
The corner of Wei Zhuang's mouth curled up: "Change the subject. Brother, are you still afraid of me?"
Gai Nie said: "It is to answer your question just now."
Wei Zhuang's expression is very subtle: "In the past, the disciples of Confucius used these words to lobby Qi, Wu, Yue, and Jin. They used the blade of Wu to defeat Qi; and the sword of Jin to destroy the prestige of Wu. .”
Gai Nie: "The original purpose of Zigong was to prevent Qi from sending troops to attack Lu."
Wei Zhuang moved closer again, as if he was having fun with Gai Nie's expression at the moment: "If the worry comes from outside, you should attack the weak enemy; on the contrary, if the worry comes from the internal opponent, you should attack the strong enemy. use his hands to eliminate his opponents."
Gai Nie had no place to retreat, so he didn't move: "Leading the peasant family to be an enemy of the Mohist family, and even wanting the peasant family to be an enemy of me, just shows that the crisis of the empire at this moment comes from within."
Wei Zhuang understood: "Some people want to take advantage of this battle of affection and temptation to clear away obstacles and eliminate dissidents. But this real obstacle may not be a hundred schools of thought."
Gai Nie: "When you and I split up, I tested Zhang Han. He is not the one who makes arrangements."
Wei Zhuang's tone is very intriguing: "Oh? It seems that you know your former colleagues very well."
The two of them are already quite close at this moment, so close that they can clearly see any subtle expression on each other's face.
Gai Nie had no choice but to raise his hand and press Wei Zhuang's shoulder to remind Wei Zhuang that the distance was too close: "Zhang Han is loyal to the orthodoxy of the empire. Fusu's exile may not only become a change for the empire, but also a change for the empire." The situation in the world is a chance."
Wei Zhuang curled his lips to look like Ge Nie's outstretched hand: "I'm afraid Zhang Han is not qualified enough to cooperate with Quicksand?"
Gai Nie said: "Xiao Zhuang, you and I don't need to lobby for this matter."
Wei Zhuang ignored Gai Nie's hint and got closer: "Oh? Are you sure he will take the initiative to ask for peace?"
Gai Nie withdrew his hand a little bit in self-deprecation: "With Zhao Gao's style of work, he will definitely not just lay out one game. He likes to weave a network like a network. It looks chaotic, but in fact it is a deadlock for each other."
"A dead end?" Wei Zhuang's breath was already on the side of Gai Nie's face: "Since the interests are exchanged, how can there be a real dead end in the world?" He stretched out his hand, clasped Ge Nie's shoulder, and pressed it.
Gai Nie lowered his head, just in time to see the ring that Guigu had passed down from generation to generation reflected a dark glow in the dark night by the broken moonlight.The meaning of this ring had troubled him for many years.It wasn't until he walked out of Ghost Valley that he was completely free from the shackles of fate.
The person he respected the most had repeatedly hoped that he would embark on the path of destiny.
"Xiao Zhuang..." Gai Nie's last words were blurred between his lips and teeth.
Wei Zhuang has always been a cold and rational person. Everyone in the world thinks that the owner of Quicksand only cares about profit, and he can kill anyone for profit.However, in the eyes of Guigu Zongjian, Wei Zhuang has always been a duplicity and responsive person.
The author has something to say: I thought about the shape of the Guigu ring worn on the uncle's hand... So the uncle can't accept this cool aesthetic, so he gave up graduation?
sweet or not?
In order to dig out Zhang Han and historical allusions, I gnawed on the history of Qin every day, and the more I gnawed, the more I discovered the timeline of the honey sauce of salted chicken...
Small History Classroom (from Du Niang)
The historical allusion of "Those who worry about the inside attack the strong, and those who worry about the outside attack the weak":
Worry comes from external enemy countries, so we should attack weak enemy countries to strengthen ourselves
Worry comes from internal opponents, so we should attack powerful enemy countries and use their hands to get rid of our own opponents.
At the end of the Spring and Autumn Period, Duke Jian of Qi sent the State Secretary as a general to attack Lu.The strength of the State of Lu was no match for the State of Qi, and the situation was critical.Zi Gong, a disciple of Confucius, analyzed the situation and believed that only the state of Wu could contend with the state of Qi, and the army of the state of Qi could be defeated by the strength of the state of Wu.So Zigong lobbied Qi Xiang Tianchang.
Tian Chang was planning to usurp the throne at that time, eager to eradicate dissidents.Zigong advised him not to let dissidents easily take the initiative to expand their power in attacking the weak Lu with the principle of "those who are worried about the outside attack the weak, and those who are worried about the inside attack the strong". .Tian Chang was tempted, but because Qi had already made plans to attack Lu, he turned to attack Wu, fearing that his troops would be unknown.Zigong said: "This matter is easy to handle. I will go immediately to persuade Wu to save Lu Faqi. Isn't this a reason to attack Wu?" Tian Chang happily agreed.
Zi Gong rushed to the state of Wu and said to Fu Chai, the king of Wu: "If the state of Qi conquers the state of Lu, the power will be strong, and Qi will be defeated. It is better for the king to strike first and join forces with Lu to attack Qi. If not, the state of Wu will be able to compete against the strong Jin. , have you achieved supremacy?" Zigong did not stop, and persuaded Zhao Guo to send troops to accompany Wu to attack Qi, which solved the worries of King Wu.
Zi Gong lobbied the Three Kingdoms and achieved the expected goal. He also thought that after Wu defeated Qi, he would threaten Lu, and Lu could not really relieve the crisis.So he sneaked to the state of Jin and stated his interests to Duke Ding of Jin: if the state of Wu succeeds in defeating Lu, he must turn to attack Jin and strive for hegemony in the Central Plains.Advise Jin State to step up preparations for war in case Wu State invades.
In 484 B.C., Fu Chai, King of Wu, took command in person and led [-] elite soldiers and [-] Yue soldiers to attack Qi State. Lu State immediately sent troops to help.The Wu army in the Qi army used a strategy to lure the enemy, and fell into a heavy siege. The Qi division was defeated, and the coach Shu and several generals died in the chaos.Qi State had no choice but to ask for peace.After Fucha's victory, he was arrogant and arrogant, and immediately moved to attack Jin.The state of Jin repelled the Wu army because of its early preparations.Zigong made full use of the contradictions between Qi, Wu, Yue, and Jin, skillfully dealt with it, and defeated Qi with the "sword" of Wu, and destroyed the prestige of Wu with the "sword" of Jin.The state of Lu lost little, but was able to escape from the crisis.
