Chapter 200 Bets
There is a saying that the layman watches the bustle, and the layman watches the doorway.
Shi Li Ai's question, Chu Tianya's answer, the ordinary sergeants nearby felt very interesting to listen to it, and the topic was very attractive, but few people really felt the deep meaning and danger contained in it.
This is like two peerless martial arts masters, who set up a frame before making a move, converging their own door while looking for each other's dead hole.
At present, this is a real talk on paper, but there is a lot of killing.
Because everything Chu Tianya and Shi Li'ai said may be verified in reality.
After listening to Chu Tianya's answer, Shi Liai's expression was very silent. He quietly turned his face to look at the distant mountains in the heavy rain and fog, and said indifferently, "It's a pity that you don't become a commander."
"Your envoy is too flattering the last general." Chu Tianya replied, "So, do you agree with the last general?"
Shi Liai smiled slightly, "Everyone knows the truth, but people often don't reason when they do things. Otherwise, where did so many old horses in the world lose their hooves and get blessings from misfortune, and where did they come from?
Old fox!
After listening to Shi Li Ai's water-tight and insinuous answer, Chu Tianya scolded him at the first time.
Shi Liai clearly knew that Chu Tianya was also looking for him to spy on military aircraft. He wanted to know if Wanyan Zonghan planned to invade the south again this year. And Shi Liai's answer is that it is not reasonable; but reason is often unreliable! At the same time, Shi Liai also conveyed this meaning: Boy, last year, you just cheated and won for a while. Don't be too proud! The strength of our Great Jin Kingdom is far better than that of the Song Dynasty, and you boy can't always defeat Wanyan Zonghan!
......
A war in which only two people participated was quietly carried out in the misty rain at the head of the North Gate of Taiyuan City. Although there were 20 or 30 sergeants standing next to them, no one could understand the deep meaning of their words. They just think that the two big men are really so idle, standing on the head of the cold city on a rainy day and blowing the north wind, talking about this nonsense?
At this time, Chu Tianya felt that Shi Liai was really an interesting person. It's fun to talk to him. Every word you say should rack your brains, and every word the other party says should be carefully thought out. At the same time, we don't speak through, but we understand each other. Such a level of brain collision is like two martial arts masters of similar strength competing with all their strength. There is really a kind of pleasure of chess and drums and fighting!
"General Song, I also want to ask you a question, which is also hypothetical. Are you interested in listening to it?" Shi Liai seems to have fallen in love with such a mental competition.
"Please speak."
Shi Liai smiled slightly, "If General Song is an official of the Song Dynasty or a governor who dominates real power in the court, will he once again have the idea of recovering the sixteen states of Yanyun and take the initiative to attack the north?"
This problem was more sensitive than the previous one. The sergeants of the Song Dynasty next to him changed their faces and looked nervous.
They should be nervous. What people in the army are most afraid of is to exceed their power or commit crimes. Discussing such a major military matter in private, not to mention generals and soldiers, even the governors have to hide and discuss.
But Chu Tianya, who was known as a general, was just a mountain thief who made the court hate him so much. He didn't have any scruples. When he gave him a chance, he wanted to kick the buttocks of the Song officials.
So he replied cheerfully, "Of course not."
"Oh?" Shi Liai was a little surprised and laughed happily, "Why?"
Chu Tianya smiled a little disdainfully, "Because war costs money and food and kills people. The officials criticize a large number of military information reports every day, which will delay him from enjoying his life. The governors have to worry about the people leading the soldiers outside and rob him of his limelight. The general who leads the troops are worried about the constraints of the officials and the governors. Even ordinary soldiers will worry about whether there will be a chance to enjoy the battle. The military salary. From top to bottom, no one in the Song Dynasty wants to go to war now. Therefore, there will be no more Northern Expedition.
After listening to Chu Tianya's words, the soldiers of the Song Dynasty sweated coldly! - Oh, my God, how dare you say it! These words are enough for you to cut your head a hundred times!
But on second thought... The officials and the governors have thought a thousand times to kill Chu Tianya. Isn't he still living well now? Why don't you add another hundred times?
"Haha!" Shi Liai laughed loudly, "General Song, if you dare to say this, aren't you afraid of being beheaded?"
"Of course I'm afraid." Chu Tianya replied indifferently, "But if the superior pursues it, the end will have his own answer. Not only will you not be beheaded, but you will also be rewarded.
"Oh, this is strange." Shi Liai suddenly became very interested, "How is General Song going to deal with it?"
Chu Tianya laughed and said, "I will explain to my superiors that in fact, the envoys of the State of Jin received the news and mistakenly thought that our Song Dynasty had the intention of the Northern Expedition and specially came to spy on the military situation. In order to dispel the concerns of the envoys of the State of Jin and continue to maintain the status quo of friendly diplomatic relations between the two countries, the last general had to say this taboo. In the final analysis, it is actually to be loyal to the Song Dynasty, avoid war and win peace for the Song Dynasty!"
Shi Li Ai's face suddenly twitched inadvertently - what a clever mouth! It seems that he has already seen my intention to come here!
"What, did the last general say something wrong?" Chu Tianya smiled and said, "Didn't you receive such false news?"
"Did you hear that?" Shi Li Ai asked cunningly.
"I just heard it from your voice. Of course, it may also be that the last general misunderstood. If so, the last general is not the Taiyuan magistrate or Xuanfu department that represents the court. The last general's words should not be counted, and it is not the meaning of the court. It's just the gossip between the last general and the noble envoy, isn't it? Chu Tianya answered even more.
Shi Liai has nothing to say. His stiff expression stiffened for a moment, and he suddenly smiled, "It seems that the envoy is going to be happy, because General Song has not yet become a Taiyuan magistrate or a bigger official. Otherwise, Dajin will have an enemy more powerful than Chu Tianya.
"Oh?" Hearing this, Chu Tianya smiled, "A mountain thief in Chu Tianya is actually regarded as a strong enemy by the State of Jin?"
Shi Liai turned his face and slanted his eyes. He looked deeply at Chu Tianya and said with a smile, "The officials and ministers of the Southern Dynasty did not dare to attack the north, and the generals and soldiers did not dare to fight with the State of Jin; but Chu Tianya dared to attack the north, and the 100,000 people under his command dared to attack the north. This is what he is so powerful!"
"Oh, how did you know what Chu Tianya was thinking? Has it been talked to him?" Chu Tianya asked curiously.
"Yes, we have talked about it." Shi Liai nodded with a smile and said meaningfully, "Although he didn't say it clearly, he already felt that he really dared to do it."
"Why does he dare to go north?" Chu Tianya smiled and said, "Even if there are 100,000 rabbles under his command, it can't match the hundreds of thousands of soldiers in the State of Jin, right? The people dare to go to the north, don't they hit the stone with eggs?
"If Chu Tianya had been so reasonable, he would have died together with Taiyuan City last year." Shi Liai's eyes narrowed slightly and looked at Chu Tianya and said, "He is a madman. No one can think of what he wants to do; moreover, he dares to do it as long as he thinks of it. If one day Chu Tianya becomes the only barrier and Optimus Prime in the southern country, he will not be surprised at all. Because he has such potential and ability! - Miracle can only favor people like Chu Tianya. The last sentence was said by the wolf owner.
"Interesting." Chu Tianya smiled and said, "Your envoy, why don't you Jin people hate Chu Tianya? Give him such a high praise."
"You're right." A sharp light flashed in Shi Liai's eyes, and she looked at Chu Tianya slightly. "The real woman who grew up on horseback has always respected more heroic warriors than them, whether he is a fellow or an opponent. Therefore, they use wolves as totems. Because among a group of wolves, the strongest and bravest one has always been the wolf king; every wolf in the wolf group is in awe of the tiger, but he dares to challenge the tiger and never dies. The brave real woman will be proud of killing the opponent who awes them! What they want to do most in their life is to string the ears of their most powerful opponent with the horse's tail and hang them under the neck of their beloved horse!"
"That's a pity. After all, Chu Tianya only has two ears." Chu Tianya laughed.
The soldiers of the Song Dynasty behind him also laughed. The expressions of Shi Liai and the virgin bodyguards are extremely serious, as if they are participating in a solemn sacrifice, serious to awe and piety.
They are all staring at Chu Tianya.
"General Song, if you see Chu Tianya one day, please convey your greetings to him. At the same time, please tell him..." Shi Liai took a deep breath and said very solemnly, "I, Shi Liai, will cut off his ear with my own hands one day!"
"Okay, I'm happy to help." Chu Tianya smiled relaxedly and said, "But what if you miss it and are defeated or even captured alive by him?"
"I will take care of myself."
"A coward." Chu Tianya blurted out and scolded.
Shi Liai's face changed slightly, "What are you talking about?"
"If you lose, you will commit suicide. What is it that you are not a coward if you can't afford to lose like this?" Chu Tianya smiled slightly, "I think people like you, Chu Tianya must not be interested in cutting your ears. Because you may even lose the courage to live at any time. Such a coward is not worthy of his opponent.
There was a sound of clenching teeth around, and the female bodyguards were staring angrily again. Shi Liai is taking a deep breath and focusing on it.
"Well said, good..." Shi Li Ai exhaled a long breath, "Then General Song thought, what should he do if he lost?"
"Five it under its command and serve it as the Lord." Chu Tianya said easily with a smile on his face.
"What?" For Chu Tianya's answer, Shi Liai was obviously very surprised.
"Do you think so?"
"Why should I do this?"
"Haha!" Chu Tianya laughed and said, "At the beginning, the noble envoy was also heavily used in the State of Liao. The official went to the Liaoxing military governor, dominated the military and political power for a while. Later, he turned to Wanyan Zonghan and became his hard-working think tank. The reason is nothing more than that the State of Jin defeated the State of Liao. He is strong and has a future, and Wanyan Zonghan knows how to be polite, virtuous and sergeant, and knows the ability of others, and knows the kindness to you. Your envoy, is the last general right?
"It's not wrong, and it's not all right." Shi Liai said, and his face was a little ugly. After all, the concept of "loyal ministers and two masters" is an eternal moral requirement for officials. Even if Shi Liai is from Liaoning, he is also a Han official who grew up in the atmosphere of Confucianism in Liaoning, and he still has some scruples about such a concept in his heart.
"If Chu Tianya can defeat the State of Jin and Wanyan Zonghan again, won't it prove that he is stronger and more promising than Wanyan Zonghan? Moreover, if a superior wants to achieve real success, the first thing is to learn to know people and use energy. Chu Tianya looked at Shi Liai with a smile on his face. "As mentioned above, isn't Chu Tianya a wise master who is more worthy of loyalty than Wanyan Zonghan?"
"Nonsense!"
Shi Liai finally became a little angry.
Chu Tianya's words really touched his bottom line.
"You are so angry." Chu Tianya still smiled, hugged his fist and said, "The last general is a rude person. I hope you don't pay attention to it."
"Wow..." Shi Liai sighed, "If these words are said by Chu Tianya, it will become a life-and-death bet. Fortunately, unfortunately, it was not what Chu Tianya said.
"If you are interested in participating in this gambling, you will definitely tell him the next time you see Chu Tianya." Chu Tianya smiled and said, "However, if you are afraid to let him know, the last general will also keep his mouth shut. What we said today is that we are full and all nonsense!"
Shi Li'ai's face trembled. He knew that Chu Tianya was using the fierce method, but he couldn't avoid it.
He took a deep breath again, and finally said a word with a long voice--
"Good--"
