Text Chapter 699: Shi Gong's Comments on Confucianism, a History Book

Xiao Lan has been stationed on the border for many years, so he naturally knows the importance of his lair. This time he decided to send troops and seized the opportunity to defeat King Zuoxian's army. However, when he raised his troops, he still made backup preparations.

At that time, two days after his army set off, letters to other military towns were sent out. Regardless of the attitudes of other military towns, it was somewhat of a relief.

In fact, due to the sudden death of King Zuo Xian, Xiao Lan decided to send troops because he believed in Qiu Yan's judgment and his own inference.

Therefore, when the news of the dispatch of troops reached surrounding military towns, even Anyang Hou Pangyi, who was quite close to him, was shocked and felt that this move was undesirable.

This is like when a general in later generations suddenly announces that he will attack a powerful enemy country in a stable period. Not only is there no warning, but it is even more likely that it will be difficult to win and he will suffer the consequences.

After receiving the letter, the nearby Jiedu envoys such as Ande Army, Zhaode Army, Baoyi Army, Zhongyi Army, and Dingnan Army immediately wrote back to object and asked Xiao Lan not to act rashly. Unfortunately, when their letters arrived, Dingchang Army Already set off.

However, even though he left, in order to prevent the enemy from stealing his retreat and to prevent the enemy from setting traps, Xiao Lan still left a force of troops in the city, led by Yang Zhong.

In this way, the situation is clear.

The reason why Xiao Lan notified other military towns was not to hope that they could march together. The purpose of this sudden attack was to turn into Rufeng. If there were too many troops and horses, they would become a burden and the pressure on logistics and coordinated command would be reduced. If it belongs, there will be trouble.

Xiao Lan's report was, firstly, to inform the friendly forces of his whereabouts, so that they could take care of him and share the risk when he was attacked suddenly. Secondly, it involved the distribution of military merit. It was good to eat alone. But after all, he was separated from his colleagues, so he reported it first, so that others could not blame him if he didn't go. Once he had achieved achievements, he could sell his favor with just a few strokes——

The credit for the defeat of King Zuo Xian's tribe cannot be shared by those who have not sent troops, and the profit will not be lost.

Even military generals who can achieve the position of a military commander are rarely single-minded and brave people, and most of them are well versed in the rules of officialdom. Know how to move forward and retreat, after all, this officialdom is not about immediate victory or defeat.

Listening to Yang Zhong's words, Shi Gong quickly understood Xiao Lan's plan and nodded: "Xiao Lan is quite smart and has not been dazzled by the great situation. It seems that his so-called pursuit of the defeated troops, It's possible that he released the smoke to buy time to retreat. You said he didn't bring much supplies? This is a bit risky, so he can't fight for a long time. He has been there for a few days and the recovery should be there. Today and tomorrow.”

Everyone had gotten out of the carriages, and a group of carriages was gathered up by a monk. The soldiers on the side were stunned, but no one tried to explain.

You can tell. Yang Zhong admired Duke Shi very much, but he acted neither humble nor arrogant along the way, and introduced the events before and after in a leisurely manner. Many of his words were to the point, and they were just right, showing his shrewdness, which was completely contrary to his rather serious and dull expression.

As he spoke, Shi Gong said with regret: "Xiao Lan seized this opportunity and defeated King Zuo Xian's tribe with a movement like the wind. Once he returned, he had achieved his full success. But since there is a plan, Lang The troops returned to attack Dingchang, which shows that the Hu people have also made arrangements. If the court cannot make a quick decision, it is likely that the Rouluo people will quickly quell the civil strife due to external pressure..."

There was a hint of sadness in his words.

"The court is a Confucian world, and the most procrastinating and procrastinating times are not only unsatisfactory, but also always like to be soft-hearted and spend all your thoughts on meaningless things. If you miss this good opportunity, you don't know when we will see it again. , a master who writes classics is not just someone you can find."

Speaking of this, Shi Gong glanced at Qiu Yan.

After getting off the bus, Qiu Yan kept silent, thinking about the name Yang Zhong said. However, a group of generals, including Yang Zhong, showed enough respect for Qiu Yan and even deliberately slowed down their pace. parallel to him.

Xiao Lan attacked this time and took away the generals including Mr. Xu, Yuan Xing, and Lu Jiang, but those who were left behind were not mediocre people. They also knew some inside information and knew that Qiu Yanshu was a military classic. In the distant future, his status in the military strategist may be very detached, but it won't hurt to show respect now.

At the end of the team, Pang Qianru and the royal family followed. She was not a member of the envoy group. The reason why she left was because she felt the changes in the military order and the congratulations of hundreds of families. Then she left the city and rode north. Only then did she have the following. As soon as things were done, now that the Sanshui incident has subsided, he naturally returned with the convoy.

In fact, the entire process from the time when the Darui court decided to send envoys to the dispatch of envoys, and now when Qiu Yan returned to Dingchang, was called the "Envoy to Mobei" event by later historians. Pang Qianru also wrote about it in that history book. However, no name appeared, she was just called "the daughter of Marquis Anyang", which played a certain role.

According to the envoy status, Meng Qingbin is the main envoy. He is still in Sanshui discussing the details with others, and the envoy affairs are still going on. However, judging from the role played, Qiu Yan is undoubtedly the more crucial one. , coupled with his future achievements, historians have to focus on describing it. What's more, it was Qiu Yan's departure that settled the general trend and set the tone.

The term "Tongshi Mobei" later also had the meaning of going through twists and turns, but finally getting what he wanted. This is because in the history books, the matter was divided into three parts. One was to kill King Zuoxian, and the other was to intimidate him. The Sanshui tribe, the third one is the Dingping Rouluo Zuoxian King tribe, three simple labels, but there are many details, through the writings of historians, there is a legend in the plain.

Everything that is alive before us is often only one or two sentences engraved in the history books. The merits and demerits are all in it, and the evaluations of future generations are also in it. How can people today not pay attention to it.

While thinking, the man came to the barracks.

This barracks is not the original one. The place has been changed. The people in the camp are much thinner and the blood is no longer strong. This is normal. After all, most of the soldiers followed Xiao Lan northward.

Under the guidance of Yang Zhong, they arrived at a separate camp area. There were wailings everywhere in the camp, and there were screams from time to time.

Walking outside the camp, you can see large areas of blood stains.

Yang Zhong said: "This is an area specially set aside to accommodate the wounded as ordered by Shi Gong. Because it was too hasty, there are still many shortcomings."

"This is not my idea, old man, but the idea of ​​Duke Zhuang Yuan." Shi Gong chuckled and pointed at Qiu Yan, "He mentioned in the letter that dividing it like this can reduce epidemics. This time, when he came here, the people in the barracks The evil spirit has indeed been reduced a lot, showing that there is much to be done.”

"It turns out it was Qiu Xiuzhuan's intention." Yang Zhong was shocked, and the expressions of the generals behind him also changed slightly, keeping this matter of dividing the wounded camp in mind.

Originally, they thought this matter was Shi Gong's suggestion, and it was all done out of respect for their seniors, but now that they knew it was Qiu Yan's idea, their thoughts were completely different.

Qiu Yan completed the military classics. Although he had no battlefield record, he must be accomplished in theory. In addition, he made the decision to kill King Zuo Xian and notified Xiao Lan in time, allowing the officers and soldiers to defeat King Zuo Xian's plan. All of which enabled him to establish a certain prestige.

At least in the Dingchang Army, the young generals respected Qiu Yan very much.

Therefore, I was particularly attentive to what Qiu Yan said and suggested, and kept this matter in mind. In the future, I would lead the army alone and implement them seriously.

Soon, under the guidance of Yang Zhong and others, Qiu Yan and others arrived outside the tent. From a distance, they could smell the blood and stench inside the tent.

"This is it."

As soon as Yang Zhong finished speaking, someone opened the curtain and walked out. It was the doctor who accompanied the army that Qiu Yan had met once.

The doctor was shocked when he saw so many people outside. When he saw the faces of Yang Zhong and Qiu Yan, he quickly saluted.

"How is the situation?" Yang Zhong waved his hand and then asked.

The doctor shook his head: "It's very bad. Due to the impact, the internal organs were displaced and ruptured, and the wounds on the body were also very serious. In addition, due to excessive blood loss, the fuel was exhausted. The only way I could hold on until now was to hang on with one breath. Once you feel discouraged, just go.”

"Thank you, sir." Yang Zhong nodded and was about to speak, but found that the doctor was hesitant to speak, so he asked again, "Sir, do you have anything else to say?"

The doctor hesitated for a moment, then said truthfully: "There are many wounded people inside, and many people cannot bear the chaos. I know the general brought people here to express condolences, but if so many people are admitted at once, it may be counterproductive."

"Is that so?" Yang Zhong frowned slightly and glanced at the people around him.

Shi Gong shook his head and said: "Boy from the Yang family, don't feel embarrassed. We are all members of the military. If there is anything we can't say, the old man won't go in. Didn't that person say he wants to see Qiu Yan? Just let him go in alone." , just in time to let him see the condition of the wounded soldier, after all, it is different from the cold words on the paper. "

Just like that, after a few words, Qiu Yan was led into the camp by the doctor.

As soon as he stepped inside, the blood and stench became stronger and thicker, filling the air and making people sick. However, Qiu Yan did not feel disgusted at all, but became more solemn.

On both sides of the tent, a famous soldier was lying, wrapped in bandages and gauze, but it could be seen that the treatment was quite rough. The cloth was stained with blood, and from time to time someone turned over and cried.

One by one, the wounded soldiers also have blood and blood floating around, but they are in signs of decline. Moreover, each of them has a faint trace of cause and effect, which is connected to Qiu Yan, but not closely. With Qiu Yan's current methods, it is easy to Just shake it off.

But he didn't do that.

"Master Zhuangyuan, please go this way." From the front, the doctor led the way to the innermost corner. There was a person curled up silently in the hay and bedding. His body was stained with blood, and his legs were broken at the knees.

From his body, Qiu Yan captured traces of blood and energy that were the same as his own.

This man was none other than Lao Kai, a soldier whose Qi had been passed through by Qiu Yan. After the Qi and blood passed away, there was still some residual energy, but it was already thin.

It was this person who wanted to see Qiu Yan. (To be continued...)
