Chapter 630
Niu Youdao was stunned for a moment, and when he realized the meaning of the other party's words, his eyes lit up immediately, he stood up abruptly, clapped his hands and praised: "Good! With Commander Meng here, why don't you worry about the rebels staying alive!"
That's really a face of sincere appreciation, the war that was a headache for the whole country of Yan, I didn't expect that in the eyes of this old man, it was nothing more than a trivial matter, it is really high!
He doesn't know anything about fighting, especially this messed up war. He doesn't dare to command indiscriminately, and naturally he doesn't dare to speculate on himself. Come to ask for one or two, and only after asking for advice will you know what it means to be a master who sees the sun through the clouds, how can you be unhappy.
Meng Shanming waved his hand otherwise, "It's easy to say, but it's not easy to do. Once the Nanzhou army leaves Nanzhou, I'm afraid the court will make trouble everywhere, and won't let the Nanzhou army come back easily, and take the opportunity to overwhelm our Nanzhou army." The state army is also a possibility."
Gao Jiancheng mentioned this point a long time ago, and Niu Youdao nodded knowingly.
Meng Shanming continued: "The most difficult thing is not this, but the word 'righteousness'. Why does Nanzhou formulate a battle plan for the princes to implement? And why should it order the princes? It is wrong to order the people and horses of the world arbitrarily. Conspiracy, the court will be the first to refuse!"
Niu Youdao: "Meng Shuai means that the imperial court needs to bestow orders and commands?"
Meng Shanming nodded: "The person who holds this great power is the Great Sima! Before, King Ning was the Great Sima of the Yan Kingdom, but now he is Shang Yongzhong, a member of the royal family. Shang Yongzhong is His Majesty's answer, so you can ignore it, but can Your Majesty agree? Once the prince is given the power to order the people and horses of the world, if the prince uses this to quell the helpless rebellion of the imperial court, his prestige will probably make your majesty shudder!"
"So that's it." Niu Youdao nodded slowly, and then he understood the way, and he was very happy. No wonder the other party said that it is easy and difficult to put down the chaos, and asked: "Can Meng Shuai have a way to make the court hand over this Power? If you have a way, just say it, and I will find a way to handle it."
Meng Shanming shook his head: "After finally taking away the power from King Ning, how can His Majesty easily delegate power, especially to the prince. I have thought about this for a long time, but I am at a loss. Daoist asked me, I was wrong I know a thing or two about fighting, and the battles in the court are not my specialty. It's a pity that Luo Shaofu died early, Luo Shaofu was good at this, and King Ning lost the throne and was able to support the Yan, it was not because of us These warriors are all thanks to Luo Shaofu. This guy suppressed the government internally and the countries externally. It can be said that he single-handedly helped the weak Yan to its later prosperity. I don't understand, with Shaofu Luo's ability and means, how could he easily be in danger with the prince? When I retired back then, it was Shaofu Luo who persuaded me in private. Now that I think about it, did Shaofu Luo realize what he wanted to protect me?"
Regarding what he said, Niu Youdao didn't know anything about it, and he had no intention of it at the moment, so he asked again: "How about letting the three factions force Shang Jianxiong to hand over this power?"
Meng Shanming still shook his head, "That's enough! Now it's not like in the past, the millions of troops fighting against the Han and Song countries are all from His Majesty's line of troops, and the three major factions don't dare to force the dog to jump over the wall. It’s not just a Cangzhou Rebellion.”
Having said this, Niu Youdao also felt troubled, and couldn't help sighing, "The chaos in Yan's country will affect my Nanzhou sooner or later. Wugongling, Wugongling, his troubles have caused restlessness and panic in the whole country of Yan. "
Meng Shanming: "I have seen that this person is rebellious, and I have been suppressing him back then. If King Ning hadn't stopped him, I would have eliminated him. His brother Wu Gongshan was probably killed by him."
"Oh!" Niu Youdao was curious, "What grudge did Meng Shuai have with him back then?"
Meng Shanming: "There is no grievance to speak of. At that time, his brother Wu Gongshan was only a commander of a hundred men. In order to stand out, he took the initiative to emerge from the army at the risk of being beheaded, led the horse for King Ning, and knelt down as a horse. King Ning took the initiative to ask for a fight. King Ning was so moved that he sent a thousand elite soldiers to him. Wang Favor, promoted all the way, only he will come later."
Niu Youdao wondered, "What does it have to do with Wu Gongling?"
Meng Shanming: "That battle was a life-and-death battle. Wu Gongshan was injured. After the war, I went to visit in person, but I heard the two brothers arguing outside the tent. Wu Gongling vented his dissatisfaction with his brother, saying that a man of seven feet should not kneel down. As a horse stool, the words were quite disrespectful to the prince. I knew at that time that if this person could not do what he wanted in the future, he would turn against him. I opened the curtain and entered. Two brothers were lying on the sick bed and the other was standing beside the sick bed. Seeing me enter, everyone broke out in a cold sweat."
Niu Youdao could imagine the situation at that time. In the army, Meng Shanming's words were enough to make the two brothers die without a place to bury him. He asked with a smile: "Meng Shuai is the one who kills and decides. How can there be troubles in the future?"
Meng Shanming: "I don't want to let it go. At that time, I had already drawn a foot of the sword from my waist. It happened that King Ning was worried about Wu Gongshan's injury, so he also came to visit him personally, but was stopped by King Ning. Later, Wu Gongshan went to war. Desperate for meritorious service, Wu Gongling will not give up, King Ning promotes two brothers, I will stop one of them!"
Niu Youdao asked with a smile: "Suppress Wu Gongling?"
Meng Shanming nodded: "Only for deputy positions, not for the chance to hold military power. Before I retired, I also repeatedly told Luo Shaofu not to give this person a chance."
Niu Youdao: "It's no wonder, I have been aggrieved by Meng Shuai for so many years."
Meng Shanming shook his head: "Once this kind of person holds military power, the consequences will be unimaginable, how can he be tolerated? If it wasn't for his military exploits, he would have killed him for fear of shaking the army's morale. Now that I think about it, I am too benevolent for a woman. I have harmed Wu Gongshan. It also left such troubles for Dayan."
Niu Youdao sighed endlessly when he heard it, the grievances and grievances in this world are really endless and confusing.
The two talked for a long time before they came out. Shang Shuqing had been waiting outside, and Yuan Gang also showed up.
Under the eaves, Meng Shanming, who was sitting in a wheelchair when he saw Yuan Gang, gave a sigh of pity, "Bold and cautious, fearless in times of danger, flexible in mind, calm and brave, good at writing, loyal and loyal, possessing the all-round qualities of an excellent general." The condition is really a rare general talent, if he is trained and experienced, he will surely shine brightly and become famous all over the world. Don’t you feel that you have been humiliated by hiding in this mountain villa? Why don’t you let him go with me!”
Niu Youdao didn't agree, "If he wants to be famous in the world, for me, it's better for him to live well than anything else." Leaning on his sword, he walked down the steps.
Meng Shanming let out a soft sigh.
Shang Shuqing didn't know what Niu Youdao specially invited Meng Shanming to talk about, and when he saw someone came out, he went forward to have a warm conversation with Meng Shanming.
Yuan Gang invited Niu Youdao aside, and said in a low voice, "Lei Zongkang and Wu Sanliang are back."
Niu Youdao immediately knew that he had the answer, otherwise the person sent to inquire would not have suddenly withdrawn and immediately asked, "How is the situation?"
Yuan Gang: "It should have gone to Misty Pavilion."
Niu Youdao: "What do you mean should be? Are you sure?"
"Don't dare to say about other places, do other forces dare to exist in that area? Although the people are not in place..." Yuan Gang gave a general overview of the tracking situation.
Niu Youdao was silent for a while, and finally said slowly: "It seems that unfortunately I guessed correctly, it is really a person from Misty Pavilion..." After thinking for a long time, he reminded in a low voice, "I tell the relevant personnel to keep quiet, neither Bailijie nor Gongsunbu Act like nothing happened."
Yuan Gang: "With such a person by my side, can I feel at ease?"
Niu Youdao: "There's nothing we can do if we can't feel at ease. After getting rid of Gongsun Bu, the other party will install a second Gongsun Bu. Can we all find out in time? What we have is better than what we can't. Good." It's just that Misty Pavilion has always been on the sidelines, and will not easily intervene unless their interests are touched, how to guard against it, what should be known to the other party, and what should not be known to the other party, you have to know it well."
Yuan Gang nodded.
Niu Youdao: "I want to go to the capital in person. I will take the matchmaker with me. You look after my family."
Yuan Gang was startled, "Master Dao, the capital city is a dragon's pool and a tiger's den, Shang Jianxiong will not let you go, and it is too late to hide from him, how can you cast yourself into a trap?"
Niu Youdao waved his hand, "It's not as exaggerated as you think. No one knows that I will go. I will go quietly and come back quietly. Nothing will happen."
Yuan Gang still objected, "Master Dao, I don't agree, it's too dangerous."
Niu Youdao shook his head, "There are no eggs under the nest, the situation is chaotic, the situation is too big, we are not well-organized in many things, we don't dare to act rashly without experience, and hesitate in our hearts. I have to go to the capital to ask an expert for advice. I won't do it. Now that I know it in my heart, I really dare not make a decision lightly, this time it is imperative."
Yuan Gang tried to ask, "High opinion?"
Niu Youdao nodded by default.
Afterwards, Niu Youdao found Guan Fangyi, invited her to take a trip together, and escorted Meng Shanming back to Fucheng.
Running around like this, Guan Fangyi was unhappy, "Why, as for the two of us guarding together?"
After all, Niu Youdao was going, but she had to keep up in the end, and she also felt something strange in her heart, and wanted to see what the hell Niu Youdao was up to.
Another three large birds flew away, and Yuan Gang watched them off, both worried and relieved.
After finding out the bottom line of Bailijie, at least there is no need to do the matter of arranging Sha Huanli and Xueluo'er.
Otherwise, he could have imagined how unbearable the next scene would be. Bailijie could not be killed, but could only be controlled. The background of Bailijie is too hard, so hard that others can't control it. It's useless to say what Daoist would do with one of the two women tied up, because in all likelihood, Baili Jie put him to sleep again.
During the period, the woman knew what happened, but she didn't know who was molesting her, and then she was released, only letting Bailijie know who she was molesting.
This is probably worse than letting Baili Jie kill the woman, even if it was forced by others, Baili Jie dare not speak up afterwards.
For other things, it may be okay to be persecuted. If you give the granddaughter of the Nine Supremes and so on, the consequences can be imagined. Can you still expect that raw rice and cooked rice will be able to take advantage of the situation? Even if Baili Jie was killed, he would not dare to speak out!
He, Yuan Gang, is unwilling to do such low-level work.
PS: Another person on the hero slope, congratulating the new leader "Three Young Masters 520" on the birth.
