Fleeing the wasteland and farming: don't panic, the family's metaphysics boss

Chapter 307

Go back in time for one month.

Qu Country, Marshal's Mansion.

However, on this day, Commander Zhou Ye was asking a Taoist priest, when suddenly a guard came to report: "Commander, there is a man from the Mu Kingdom outside the door, who claims to be Xiangguo, and wants to visit Commander." After speaking, he presented a gold medal.

Zhou Ye was puzzled. He took the gold medal and saw that it was Xiangguo's identity card. He wondered, "After Mu Guo's old Xiangguo died, his status has been hanging in the air. How come Xiangguo came to see me?"

The Taoist priest saw Zhou Ye's desire to meet people, and he was very sensible: "Since there are noble people visiting, the poor Taoists will retire first."

Zhou Ye then ordered people to invite that Xiangguo into the hall.

The visitor looked to be in his early twenties, although he claimed to be Xiangguo, but he was dressed in common clothes and looked very simple, especially his face was very handsome, not like Xiangguo, but a refined scholar.

"Xu Ying, Mu Xiangguo, is specially ordered by the monarch to come to visit Marshal Zhou." He saluted.

"Xu Ying?" Zhou Ye glanced sideways, not concealing his disdain, "As far as I know, the position of Prime Minister of Mu Kingdom has been vacant for many years, and I have never heard of the name 'Xu Ying'."

These words inevitably sounded harsh, but for someone else, it would be really embarrassing to have their noble status belittled in this way.

Zhou Ye also said this on purpose, not to mention Mu Guo, he didn't take it seriously at all, let alone the man in front of him looked weak, he even looked down on him, why bother to show face.Besides, Mu Guo had only suffered a defeat under his command a few months ago.

However, I thought I would see Xu Ying's face change suddenly, but I didn't expect him to just smile and explain kindly, "Thanks to the trust of the monarch, Xu Ying was just appointed as the Prime Minister half a month ago. The news hasn't come out yet, you don't know, Commander?" It's also normal."

After Zhou Ye heard it, he laughed again. He was still a boy, so he said arrogantly: "Is there no one in Mu Country? Xiangguo, who is under one person and above ten thousand people, is you such a kid?"

Xu Ying's demeanor and tone remained unchanged, "Xu Ying has just arrived in Qu Country, and he has heard similar words: They all say that there is no one in Qu Country."

Zhou Ye's face suddenly turned into anger, "My country is a big country, full of talents everywhere, heh, is Xiangguo blind at a young age?"

Xu Ying said: "I only heard about this when I entered the country of Qu, and the people of the country of Qu said so, "Zhou Ye is counted as the commander-in-chief who has suffered defeats many times, but the Duke of the state has not punished him. It seems that there is no one in the country. .' Marshal, haven't you heard this before?"

"You" Zhou Ye was so angry that he almost flipped the table.

Xu Ying's expression was calm, "The commander sent troops three times this year, but he suffered two defeats, and both times he was defeated by Daxia. The first time he suffered a loss in Xiafu County, and the second time he suffered a big defeat in Xiachengyang County.

As the saying goes, winning ten battles does not equal one defeat, not to mention you still lost to Xia Zi.

This year's two defeats have ruined all the reputation the commander has accumulated in previous years.Even if you won face in Mu country a while ago, but Mu country, hehe. What is there to be proud of when you win Mu country.

Marshal, don't you realize how dangerous your current situation is? "

Zhou Ye was furious at Xu Ying's words at first, but after hearing the last sentence, he fell silent.

Xu Ying's words were exactly what was on his mind.He is known as the god of war in the Qu country, but this year he has suffered repeated defeats. He attacked Mu country before to temporarily restore his name as the god of war.

But as Xu Ying said, even if he won, he was not proud, because Mu State was really vulnerable to Qu State, and he led troops to attack Qu State, in the eyes of others, he was like a stone Hit the eggs, not worth mentioning at all.

Zhou Ye's face was gloomy, thinking of his deadly enemy in court.That person was probably planning how to read his book, and he had already sensed the danger that Xu Ying said in his heart.

Seeing that he was silent, Xu Ying paused for a moment, and said: "When I first came to Qu Country, I heard rumors about the Commander, and the position of the Commander in the court is clearly in jeopardy.

Qu country is the country that is most likely to replace Xia, and Qu country's ambitions have never been concealed. This point must be clearer than me.

But you lost all the battles with Daxia this year, how can Duke Qu bear this anger?You let him be ridiculed by the people of the world and lose the face of the country, do you still want to pretend that nothing happened?
Marshal, are you not afraid?Or do you think the Qu Guo Guild will remember your past military exploits and give you a little slack? "

Zhou Ye frowned tightly, and asked in a deep voice, "Why did you come to see me?"

Xu Ying smiled, "I just want to be friends with Dashuai.

The commander-in-chief should know that Mu State is now at war with Daxia Minzhou, but Mu State is backed by Yinzhou. In order to understand the danger of Minzhou, Daxia will definitely order Yinzhou to send troops to attack our Mu State.

Yinzhou has a strong military force. Once troops are sent out, the state of Mu will be in danger. "

Zhou Ye snorted coldly, "This is your Mu country's business, so what does it have to do with me?"

Xu Ying continued: "I'm going to be blunt. I hope the commander-in-chief can ask Qu Guogong to fight and lead troops to attack Yinzhou. Qu Guo is adjacent to Yinzhou, and you don't even need to go through other countries."

Zhou Ye seemed to have heard the funniest joke, and laughed endlessly, "Could I be a fool, Zhou Ye, your country is in trouble, why should I help you stop the Yinzhou iron cavalry?"

Xu Ying smiled lightly: "Commander, you are not helping Mu Guo stop the Yinzhou iron cavalry, you are helping yourself.

How many people are waiting to poke your back in the court of Qu Country now?Do you really want to sit and wait until Duke Qu finds some excuse to settle the score for you?
Right now, you are asking for a battle to attack Yinzhou, which is a good time for you to stand up.Yinzhou is a big state with a strong military force. If you can win Yinzhou, then you will be ashamed, the name of God of War will be preserved, and the country will be famous all over the world. "

Zhou Ye stared at Xu Ying, but didn't respond immediately.

Xu Ying slowly picked up a cup of tea and took a sip, feeling quite at ease.

Zhou Ye was a little annoyed, because this young man had completely grasped what he was thinking.But even if it was for himself, he was clearly blocking the knife for Mu Guo, and he couldn't swallow this tone.

"Hmph, you sounded good. Yinzhou is located on the border, adjacent to the four countries, but it can be as stable as Mount Tai and not be oppressed. Its military strength is evident. If I send troops to attack, I will be famous all over the world if I win. If I lose, then It’s just that I will have a bad reputation for thousands of years, and even my life is in danger, so why should I take risks?”

Xu Ying raised his eyelids slightly, and looked at Zhou Ye firmly, "First, you have no choice, commander. You have lost your trust in front of Duke Qu Guo. As a commander, if you don't use military exploits to justify yourself, The only thing waiting for you is tragic death. To justify yourself, only a big state like Yinzhou can show it.

Second, Yinzhou will definitely send troops to attack our Mu country. This is the time when Yinzhou's defenses are weakest. If we don't attack at this time, when will we wait?
third"

Xu Ying took out a roll of parchment from his sleeve, "This is the military defense map of Yinzhou. With this map, if the commander-in-chief attacks by surprise, this battle will undoubtedly be won."

Zhou Ye was startled, and quickly picked up the parchment, with a suspicious expression on his face: "How can you have the military defense map of Yinzhou? How can this thing be obtained easily? Is it fake?"

Xu Ying sneered on his face, "To tell you the truth, I am actually from Yinzhou in Daxia. I was extremely disappointed in Yinzhou, so I turned to Mu State to seek a way to survive. As for getting this military defense map, it is simply a matter of fact to me." It's a piece of cake"
