Chapter 5 Fighting Fire Across the Mountain
In the garden on a spring night, the flowers and trees have shown vitality, but the dead branches and leaves are still there. A green-shirted scribe walked silently on the winding path. When he stopped by a small tree, he picked up the tender buds that had just come out from the branches with his hand, and the tender buds fell with his hand. The scribe looked up to the sky with a feeling and sighed. He was just like this tender bud, and he couldn't help shaking too much. This man was Mo Zhuo who endured at home. The change in the court was so fast that he was at a loss. After waiting for more than ten years, I finally had the opportunity to display my talents. I thought I could achieve my ambition. Who would have thought that when my foundation was not stable, General Hua suddenly passed away, and then a sudden appeared. When Gao Guo had a secret talk with He Ran, he was only worried about this Junran. After returning to Dechang City, his worries directly escalated into shock, because several powerful old ministers were in a different place because of the impeachment of him. The Empress Dowager was self-evident in his favor. In just a few months, this Juran came to the place where the clouds and rain were called for rain. Step, Mo Zhuo, who can see the situation clearly, can only help in vain. He immediately thought of countless lessons from the past. There are too many examples of kings who favor women and harm the country. Now it seems that the Empress Dowager's love for Zhuran is even worse than those kings, and women are more likely to go to extremes in terms of emotions. With a glimmer of hope, Mo Yu presented the gift He Ran asked him to bring to the Empress Dowager. The Empress Dowager only took a glance and took the gift and brushed it away. He could see that the gift touched the Empress Dowager. Mo Yu really wished that the time could be reversed, so he could directly send He Ran back as a gift.
Thinking of his brother He Ran, Mo Zhu was really jealous. This person is simply a panacea. It works there. If he has him, the difficulties he is facing now will be solved immediately. He can lead troops to fight, and he can also deal with the empress dowager. If he is willing to come to Kangguo, our brothers will join hands. ... Alas, it's useless to think of these. This life is so good. Mo Yan really envies the relationship between King Yi and his king and minister. His brother lives a really comfortable life, but this is disappointing, but he has no ambition! Thinking of this, Mo Yu shook his head, because he realized at this moment that it was precisely because He Ran had no ambition that King Yi and his ministers would not suspect him. His good life was not all given by God.
Pushing the disease and forbearance this period of time is really going to put Mo Yu out of illness, because he doesn't know when it will end. Seeing that Jun Ran's continuous cultivation of wings but is helpless, it is undoubtedly the biggest torture for him. He did not go to Zhao Hong to discuss it, because in the last court only by eye contact, he understood. Zhao Hong, who has just become a Dazai, is in a similar situation to his own, and his foundation is even more unstable, because he still has the status of a traitor. At this moment, he has to pick up his tail and be a man. But Mo Zhuo knew in his heart that Zhao Hong was forbearing as much as himself, and he would never tolerate people like Ju Ran riding on his head. In contrast, Zhao Hong should be more eager. His position as a military division can not be replaced by anyone. Now there is continuous war in the world. In times of crisis, you have to lead the troops to war with real knives and guns. Even if you get the power, you still have to rely on yourself in the short term. If you really change a mediocre talent to take charge of the country's soldiers and horses, there is a danger of destroying the country at any time. Yes, Dazai is different. At least he will not be in danger of national subjugation for a while.
What kind of opportunity can be brought down? Mo Zhu couldn't think of it. This was his biggest distress. He knew very early that Tongling sent troops to attack the State of Zhao. There was no one in the army who had more eyes and ears than him. After hearing the news, he glanced at the corners of his mouth, and even Chi Sheng and others understood the strategy that did not work. As a military teacher, he naturally knew it as soon as he heard it, but he just glanced at the corners of his mouth and didn't even say a word.
The news of Pinghe's fiasco came, and he calmly didn't even raise his eyelids, because he knew it was the result, but his heart was in **. Fourteen thousand soldiers, these are all elite soldiers! He is really distressed. The gendence of the border division is far from comparable to the army gathered by the temporary recruitment of the people. The State of Kang does not have much capital to toss around like this. After a few more defeats, the army of the State of Zhao will take Dechang directly. At that time, even if he wears up the battle, he will be unable to return to the sky. He was heartbroken. He knew that he could not be defeated in one fell swoop by this defeat alone. Do he really have to wait until the subjugation of the country to have a chance? Mo Zhuo closed his lips tightly and stamped back to the dormitory.
As Mo Yu expected, Tong Ling did not lose the position of commander-in-chief because of the defeat of Pinghe River, but only suspended the momentum of promotion. What Mo Yu did not expect was that less than a month after the defeat of Pinghe River, the State of Kang quickly repaired with the State of Zhao, and there was a noise of uniting the State of Zhao, the State of Zhao and the State of Liu to attack Xiping on the court, which made Mo Zhuzhen Some can't sit still.
Anazing the secret reports from all parties, Mo Zhuo couldn't help smiling bitterly after careful consideration. Although there was no conclusive evidence, he believed that his inference would not go wrong. It should be that the king of Zhao was secretly manipulating these changes. The copper edges sneak attack on the State of Zhao and the soldiers were useless. The group realized that the State of Zhao was not as easy to provoke as imagined. If it is not good, it will be eaten up. If the king of Zhao secretly takes the initiative to show his goodwill to Juran at this time and cooperate with bribery with a lot of money and other means, then the two countries will quickly solve the explanation.
After the Battle of Pinghe, Mo Zhuo learned about the deployment of Zhao's troops at that time. The king of Zhao sent 18,000 forbidden troops to help in the battle. In addition, the troops of the border gate of the State of Zhao, under the condition of occupying the right time and place, Jiao Gong was fully capable of killing both Kang's troops. Although he had not directly handed over, Mo Zhuo's ability was still slightly Knowing one or two, he analyzed that it might be that Jiao Gong had just been promoted. He was afraid that his generals and soldiers would refuse to use their lives. For the sake of caution, he concentrated the direct lineage and horses to encircle and annihirate Chi Sheng's Kang army. Now he doesn't think that's the same thing at all. It's the king of Zhao who planned all this at the beginning.
King Zhao must have seen that Juran is eager to cultivate power in the army. The best place to be promoted in the army is the battlefield. Only when the generals fight the war can have the opportunity to be promoted repeatedly. Therefore, he must have sent eloquent people to talk to Juran's group about the benefits of the war in Xiping, which can be regarded as the right heart. Yes.
Humph! Mo Yu curled his lips. The king of Zhao's mind was very clear. If he really fought, the State of Zhao would definitely not contribute. His intention was to consume the national strength of the State of Kang. When the time came, he would not hesitate to give Kang a fatal blow.
The war with Xiping can't be started under any circumstances, but how can we stop Juran? Mo Zhu thought about it and felt that it was necessary to meet Zhao Hong. As soon as he made a decision, the servant came in and reported that Lord Dazai came to visit him!
