The Conquest of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 349 Glorious Return to Ye City

The two patrol servants were obviously tired and whispered to each other.

Cao, the waiter with a knife, said first: "What's the noise in there? The king of Chu is really good-tempered, and the tiles are buzzing with his minister's voice."

Cao, the halberd servant, explained: "It is a major military matter, one side wants to fight, and the other side wants to make peace, so can we not quarrel?"

Cao, the waiter with a knife, joked: "Hey, I also took off my pants and farted, so what if I haven't fought a war? Grandpa followed the general to fight Hulu in the clouds. How could it be so complicated? As long as the weather is good and you are in a good mood, you can Let's fight, really fight, life is much easier in those days, not like walking around with a knife now, not even daring to open a fart!"

Sergeant Cao came up to him, and scolded: "This is the place where you are waiting to chat? After a while, General Cao will see it, and see if you will be dragged there and blamed with the army staff!"

The two hurriedly fell silent, but couldn't bear it anymore.

Cao, the waiter with a knife, asked: "Brother, I heard that the painted maid in the harem was killed by the messed up Huns?"

The waiter Cao took a look at him, and then replied: "Where can the king of Chu get so angry?"

The halberd waiter Cao said in an atmosphere: "It's raised by dogs and wolves, can't we grow like this?"

Chief Waiter Cao stared at him and said, "Shut up!"

There was silence again.The voice inside came out, it was Pang Tong's voice: "...No! At the beginning, Qin general Meng Tian swept Donghu, opened up thousands of miles of land, and took the Gongsun River as the boundary, piled stones as the Great Wall, and planted trees as a dangerous fortress, which made the Xiongnu I dare not go south to herd horses. This is all in exchange for force. If I only talk about benevolence and virtue but not force to the enemy, then I will always have to be a Gongsun sheep..."

After the halberd servant Cao faintly heard it, he clapped his hands softly and shouted: "Well said!"

Chief Waiter Cao's eyes turned white again-----

In the main hall, Pang Tong continued: "...so I think the Xiongnu can only subdue, not forgive."

Gao Shun continued: "Even if you are overwhelmed, you must use benevolence and wisdom. I heard that soldiers who use soldiers can wait for hunger with fullness, chaos with calmness, and labor with ease. Only in this way can we win every battle. If our Chu army rashly goes deep Enemy..."

Pang Tong argued: "I have never said that you should 'go deep into the enemy's territory'. It is not necessary to go deep into the enemy's territory to fight a war. The doctor Yushi is talking about the skills of war. If the difference between the minister and the censor is only in the skills, isn't that true? Say, the general no longer opposes the use of troops?"

Gao Shun was stunned.

Nie Zefeng asked, "General, do you mean that?"

Gao Shun explained: "The daily life of the Huns is no different from the conditions of combat. But once we mobilize troops, we still need to organize, mobilize, equip, recruit, and train... What about the Huns... they learned to fight when they were born. They live on horseback, the knife in their hands is everything to them, they hold meetings, do business, eat, drink, and sleep on horseback..."

Nie Zefeng stopped him with gestures.

"This king is very clear about the Xiongnu's proficiency in fighting. Needless to say, now I want to ask whether to fight or not?"

Nie Zefeng patrolled the ministers.

The ministers seemed to see Nie Zefeng's inclination, and kept silent.

"Master Cao, take out those two things that this king brought!"

The waiter Cao came over upon hearing the sound, and presented two original credentials with both hands.

Nie Zefeng held two books in his hand and said: "These are two archives found in Tianlu Pavilion. One is the letter of credence written by the Xiongnu Chanyu to the Empress Dowager Lu, and the other is the reply letter from the Empress Dowager Lu in response to the insults of the Huns. You, ah, read and read...Listen, listen...Listen to how the Huns molested our big man's mother with obscene words in the national letter; listen to what humble and knee-deep words our mother swallowed... ..."

The ministers passed the two files one by one.

Nie Zefeng suddenly threw something on the table: "What is this? This is a national humiliation! National humiliation! You may have forgotten it, but this king has not! Today, you are all here, and everyone has to express their opinion. In the next 30 years, we will be very happy. The country is war or peace, you all make it clear to this king!"

Nie Zefeng pointed at everyone present.

The sky darkened, but the guard of honor of Ban Cao still did not withdraw.

A row of eunuchs from Gongsun's family came from there with all kinds of food in their hands and filed into the hall.

The courtiers chewed their food carefully.

Nie Zefeng's voice: "...This king has seen today's court discussion, and the conclusion is already obvious. Yes, Mr. Shangjing quoted the "Sima Law", 'Even if a country is big, it will die if it is warlike.' Very good. But Why did the prime minister only quote the first half of the sentence? What about the second half of the sentence? Pang Tong, tell me, tell me the second half of the sentence too!"

Pang Tong said: "The "Sima Law" says this: no matter how big a country is, it will perish if it is warlike; although the world is peaceful, it will be dangerous if you forget to fight!"

Lu Bu was embarrassed for a while.

Nie Zefeng continued: "That's right, don't just say one-sided words, I think the second half of the sentence is very important to today's Han Dynasty! 'Although the world is flat, if you forget the battle, you will perish!' From today, the Shaofu and the internal affairs The Department of History immediately prepares military expenditures, and the elite of the Han army must complete the mobilization and deployment of defenses and step up training. This king can say that he has considered this issue for ten years. This war is not to be fought for a year or two, but to fight Ten years, 20 years, even longer."

But after all, in the end Nie Zefeng also felt that the time was not ripe, and finally chose to retreat to Yecheng, to his newly built capital.

After returning to Yecheng, the first thing Nie Zefeng did was to marry Gongsun Yan, the wife of Liaodong.

However, Gongsun Yan, who was a prisoner of war, of course became Nie Zefeng's concubine smoothly.

The motorcade approached slowly, and the matchmaker Yiji and the old servant Gongsun Xiang from the Gongsun family were at the front.

Seeing Nie Zefeng, Yiji hurriedly rode forward, clasped his hands and said with a smile: "It's a good thing that my subordinates did not disgrace their fate, and have welcomed the new princess back safely."

Nie Zefeng showed satisfaction, nodded and smiled and said, "Uncle Ji has worked hard all the way, I will drink a few cups of the general's wedding wine later."

"Then the subordinate will not be polite, the general's wedding tonight, the subordinate must drink until drunk."

The two ministers looked at each other and laughed, and Nie Zefeng personally escorted his fiancée into the city slowly.

After receiving blessings from a city of scholars along the way, the convoy arrived at the prefect's mansion.

Gongsun Yan, who was wearing a wedding dress and a pearl chain on her head, got out of the carriage with the support of several maidservants, and walked briskly into the mansion.

After all the rituals, the bride was sent to the new house in the backyard, and Nie Zefeng took turns accepting the congratulations from his subordinates.

As the saying goes, people are refreshed on happy occasions. Nie Zefeng already has a lot of alcohol, and today is his big day, and he is in a happy mood.

When it was getting late, all the guests were sent away, and Nie Zefeng was three times drunk, so he went to the new house in high spirits.

At this moment, Gongsun Yan in the new house has been waiting alone for a long time.

Originally sitting for a long time, she was very bored, but as the noise outside gradually faded away, her mood gradually became tense.

On the night before leaving the pavilion, the nurse had already euphemistically told herself about the incident in the bridal chamber.

Gongsunyan was flustered when she heard this, but the nurse smiled and comforted herself, her daughter's family will always have to go through that test, bear with it, and then it will be like floating in the sky.

"Like floating in the sky, what kind of feeling would that be..."

Gongsun Yan rubbed her handkerchief, thinking wildly in her mind.

After thinking about it for a long time, I suddenly thought about my own daughter's family, how could I think about such embarrassing things, and I was not ashamed.

Under the pearl chain, a little blush could not help but creep up on the pretty girl who had applied a little makeup.

Just when he was flustered, the door creaked open, and that heroic figure walked in.

The deer in her heart suddenly jumped even more chaotically, she could even hear the bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang

The red candles were burning high, reflecting the bridal chamber like a fire.

Nie Zefeng, who was half drunk, stared at Gongsun Yan who was sitting on the bed with a smile, and walked over step by step.

The maidservants on the left and right consciously step aside, all bowing their heads and laughing secretly.

Nie Zefeng sat beside her, and the faint body fragrance wafted from his nostrils, making his heart skip a beat.

Under the bead chain, Yi Ren pursed her lips and smiled, extremely shy.

Nie Zefeng stretched out his hand, and the maids quickly handed over a small bamboo stick, and he smiled and took the pearl chain off the bride's head.

When that beautiful face came into view, Nie Zefeng felt almost suffocated for a moment.

It was a beautiful face, it was so beautiful that it made people want to stop.

When they met for the first time, Nie Zefeng only felt that she was beautiful and charming, young, with a kind of aristocratic air of a well-known lady in her whole body.

Now seeing her appearance with a little makeup and red lips and thin eyebrows, she has a mature charm, which is even more touching.

Gongsunyan bit her red lips lightly with her fine white teeth, a shy smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, and her slender eyelashes trembled slightly, showing a bit of panic in her heart.

"He didn't say anything, but his breath was like an orchid. She was so graceful that I forgot to eat. My wife, Nie Zefeng, is indeed a beauty in this world..."

Nie Zefeng was fascinated by it, and couldn't help but borrowed a few clever words from "Fu of the Goddess of Luo" to praise his bride.

Although he was not from a liberal arts background in his previous life, Cao Zhi's "Luo Shen Fu" is a famous text handed down from generation to generation. He was forced to recite it when he was in school. Although he couldn't remember most of it, he could still recite a few good lines in it. .

Gongsunyan's beauty changed when she heard it. She was surprised that Nie Zefeng, who was born as a martial artist, was able to recite such amazing poems. It's really inconceivable.

Surprised, she couldn't help but wonder: "I didn't expect the general to have such an accomplishment in poetry."

Nie Zefeng was also half-drunk, and had just borrowed a few lines from "Luo Shen Fu", and then he was surprised by Gongsun Yan and asked, only then did he realize it.

"It's just my random scribbling and random thinking." Nie Zefeng said casually.

"Graffiti?" Gongsun Yan couldn't help being at a loss again when he heard a new word.

Nie Zefeng was taken aback, thinking that he really drank a little too much, and if he dragged on like this, he might have to say something that shouldn't be said.

Immediately he laughed, "How can such a beautiful day be wasted, princess, let's do some serious things."

Changing the topic, he grabbed Gongsun Yan's slender hand.

Gongsun Yan was surprised at the fact that he had ink in his chest, and when he squeezed his hand so tightly, he suddenly woke up and wanted to pull away subconsciously.
