Chapter 331 How to be a thief
When Lu Junyi saw a person entering the door in front of him, he smiled and quickly bowed and replied, "Everything is OK, brother, don't be fine!"
At this time, a young man rushed in from outside the door a few steps, headed straight to Lu Junyi, and smiled and said, "Master, I'm back."
Lu Junyi looked at the boy and was extremely happy. He reached out and patted the boy on the shoulder and smiled, "Xiao Yi, you have grown up and are a hero!"
Yan Qing really changed a lot. It turned out that a young man was now a man with clear outlines and his eyes were full of brilliance. Even his face and skin color became much darker.
However, there were dozens of men of the Party and the people who came in saw each other's faces changed and their heads fell a little. This period of carefree life seemed to have wiped out a lot of trauma, but these trauma and inner darkness were still hidden deep. When the culprit of all this was still insurmountable.
"Brother Zheng is here at the right time. I just hunted some delicious delicacies today. Come to the table quickly." Lu Junyi and Yan Qing met briefly and chatted, and quickly came forward to greet Zheng Zhi.
Zheng Zhi walked towards the first seat in front of Lu Junyi, and naturally saw Wu Yong on the side. Wu Yong saw Zheng Zhi coming in, and his heart was beating wildly, as if there was a bad premonition. This premonition was stronger than when he was in Cangzhou before, making Wu Yong stand aside and dare not move.
Zheng Zhi glanced at Wu Yong with his eyes, walked to the first seat and sat down, and said, "Why don't the scholars come and sit together?"
Who is the scholar calling? Wu Yong naturally knew, but hesitated.
On the contrary, Lu Junyi looked around and understood, and asked, "Do you know this gentleman? Have you also found this gentleman to calculate a fortune?"
"Haha... This gentleman is good at fortune-telling, but he is not as accurate as me. Wu Xuejiao was stunned and didn't come to sit down." Zheng Zhi was free and easy, and he did not seem restrained at all in Lu Junyi's house.
Wu Yong was no longer able to do so, and he had to go to the table without hesitation, but he instantly changed his smile and bowed: "Mr. Zheng, it is really destined to meet his husband in Yuanwai's mansion."
Zheng Zhi shook his head and said, "Fate is sometimes destined by heaven, but sometimes it is the arrangement of people. Just like Wu Xuezhao arrived at Lu's Mansion today, and like someone who met you here today, it was all man-made."
Wu Yong naturally understood the meaning of Zheng Zhi's words, which was quite embarrassing. Zheng Zhi has always been like a mountain pressing on him, no matter how he planned or thought about it. He seemed to be always suppressed by this Zheng Gong and could see through it.
This feeling is really the greatest discomfort in the world for a clever mind. It is like a curse, and the maggots on the bones cannot get rid of it.
Wu Yong walked to Zheng Zhi and sat down. The smile on his face disappeared. He just said, "Mr. Zheng, are you here to catch me?"
Lu Junyi had already understood some things. This fortune teller was obviously not that simple. He didn't believe in Zhang, but his surname was Wu. Zhang Yong became Wu Yong...
When Lu Junyi thought of this, he didn't know who the famous Wu Yong was? At this time, Lu Junyi's face was also gloomy. He looked up at Zheng Zhi, but did not speak, but just stood up and poured wine for Zheng Zhi himself.
The food has not been served yet, but the wine has been poured.
Zheng Zhi picked up the wine glass and took a sip, without answering Wu Yong's words, and said, "At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, there was a poisonous man, Jia Xu and Jia Wenhe, who never talked about morality, benevolence and righteousness. In his strategy, he always hits people's hearts. As long as the purpose, no means. Wu Xueju, how about comparing you to this poison man?"
"I dare not take it. Mr. Jia is the assistant of the emperor, the talent of the general and the prime minister, and the people who plan the country are only one mountain scholar and a bandit, which is far from it." Wu Yong thought so in his heart, but he was also modest in this occasion.
"Haha... pedantics are better than that. The difference is that the pedantics are too small and have a little shallow knowledge. I don't know what the world is." Zheng Zhi even made a blunt comment, or it could be said to be criticism directly.
Wu Yong's face turned dark when he heard the words. It was naturally difficult for a smart person to accept that he was criticized so directly. A person who is good at wisdom and a person who convinces the public with wisdom, but this kind of wisdom that he is proud of was directly despised. Wu Yong was not convinced.
"Zheng Gong Zheng has a deep strategy and extraordinary wisdom. Wu Yong admires it. I wonder why my husband is here to find him?" Wu Yong naturally knew in his heart that it was not a coincidence and fate. He was also nervous, but he always thought that he could escape again. For no reason, he felt that he had escaped twice under Zheng Gong, and this time it was probably the same. So he only asked Zheng Zhi what he had to do with him.
Zheng Zhi waved his hand, pointed to the wine bowl and smiled, "Why would you rather wait until the wine and food are served before talking about the matter?"
"Mr. Zheng said frankly that he would not dare to refuse what he could do. Don't blame me for what he could not do." Wu Yong really felt that Zheng Zhi let him go several times and had to do something himself. At this time, he was afraid that this matter would not be possible.
"That's right. Since the pedan is anxious, let's talk about the matter first. Now Liangshan has become a powerful force, and the pedan should retire. Here, he will take back the things placed on the pedantic items. Don't be surprised by the pedantics. First, eat and drink enough, so that you can go on the road with peace of mind." Zheng Zhi had no expression on his face.
However, the people of Yan Qing, Wu Song and Lu Da heard the words, their faces were already showing harshness and murderous aura.
Lu Junyi was shocked when he heard this, but he also understood that it was natural that Zheng Zhi, the military advisor of Liangshan, wanted to kill him. Lu Junyi raised his hand to signal Li Gu, and then signaled everyone present.
Everyone in the hall stood up, and the steps were complicated and there was no one left.
Wu Yong couldn't understand what the neck was? Isn't the neck a human head?
Wu Yong stood up and asked, "It's okay for Mr. Zheng to take this life, but he also needs to die!"
Naturally, Wu Yong would not think like Lu Junyi. Zheng Zhi wanted to kill him, but it was not because he was the military advisor of the Liangshan thief. If it were because of this, Wu Yong would not have lived today!
Zheng Zhi looked up and glanced at Wu Yong with his eyes, and asked, "Scholars really don't understand? If the scholars really don't understand, how can they compare to Jia Xu?"
Wu Yong heard Zheng Zhiyi's reminder and his mind started to run rapidly.
Don’t really understand? Does Wu Yong really understand? At this point, how could Wu Yong not think thoroughly? He just didn’t think about it, and he was even more unwilling to think about a possibility!
At this time, Zheng Zhi had already reminded him, and Wu Yong could not help but not think that Liangshan had come step by step to the present, and came out of Cangzhou to meet Zheng Zhi, which caused a great loss, but Chao Gai and Wu Yong and nearly a thousand elite soldiers returned to Liangshan safely.
If he wanted to kill himself, Zheng Zhi was just a small task, so why did he let him go?
Looking for Zhu Tong in Cangzhou, he was arrested under Zheng Zhi and released in a few days. Why is this?
Twenty thousand official troops besieged Liangshan, but the gate of the village was broken, and Liangshan won, but Zheng Zhi was not damaged and even killed Gao Qiu. Why is this rebel Liangshan?
Things have reached this point today, and everyone can't figure it out between the front and back contacts, but Wu Yong cannot figure it out! If Wu Yong can't figure it out, how can Liangshan come from?
"Raising the thief is your own respect! Raising the thief is your own fat! Zheng Gong is the poisonous man! Zheng Gong is the real big thief in the country!" Wu Yong pointed at Zheng Zhi, knowing that his life was at its peak, and Liangshan was already fat to be slaughtered, which was also the time for his life to be lost!
Wu Yong's hands were trembling. Liangshan, which had been working hard for many years, has now become the capital of Zheng Zhi's success.
Wu Yong was unwilling to admit defeat, so he spoke again, his words trembling: "Zheng Zhi, do you really think you are sure to win? Now Liangshan's elite soldiers can reach 20,000, and there are waters surrounding them. The number of soldiers in Cangzhou is less than 10,000, and the outcome is still unpredictable. Even if I, Wu Yong, died in Daming Mansion, you can't succeed!"
"Students sit down, it's still early, and the food and drinks are not ready yet, so don't worry. Since the scholar asked this, he naturally had a problem in his heart. Liangshan wanted to win, but he was just fighting with fate, and his vitality was only on the front line!" Zheng Zhi reached out and pulled Wu Yong to sit on the chair.
"Zheng Zhi, you are so proud, I will see how you will fail in the underworld!" A person is about to face life and death, so how can he be as dull as usual, even Wu Yong can't be calm.
Zheng Zhi didn't explain much, but said, "It's time to come. The reason why someone can win is no longer a wise plan, or that someone can know what other means can be used in Liangshan."
This is true. Zheng Zhi's foresight is a crucial point in this big game.
"Even if the battle formations are opposite, you and I will arrange troops to fight to the enemy, and I will not be afraid of you in Liangshan's 20,000 elite soldiers!" Wu Yong seemed to want to fight with reason, but the battle was not about victory or defeat, but about his own chances.
Zheng Zhi shook his head slightly: "You are too small and have a narrow vision, so you are here. You have never seen the world before. When two armies face off, you are only 20,000 elite soldiers in Liangshan? A certain general and more than a thousand cavalry will inevitably rush into your Liangshan army into a mess? The battle formation is not something you, a rural scholar, can imagine. War and strategy seem to be in line, but they are still two completely different things. You know small strategy, but you don't know big battle."
Zheng Zhi had the intention to talk to Wu Yong slowly, and it seemed that he had a kind of self-psychological comfort for a thousand-year-old celebrity. If he really wanted to kill Wu Yong, Zheng Zhi always thought that he should have a deeper conversation with him. As for the significance of this conversation, there was no need to think about it, he just wanted to chat with Wu Yong for a few words.
"In this way, you Zheng Zhi is very knowledgeable about fighting and planning? I, Wu Yong, cannot write beautiful articles and cannot pass the imperial examination. However, I am familiar with Guigu Zongheng and military classics, craftsmen and people's hearts every day, and think about military and military wars from ancient times to the present. I just want to keep a person born with a dignity in this world, and not far away, and go with the flow of history torrents. Victory and defeat are all due to human consequences, so what can I do if I fight again? You Zheng Zhi, can you ensure that you are not lazy?" Wu Yong expressed his inner pride at this last moment. People who read and wise people will always have such a pride in their hearts that is not revealed.
"You are planning this country's way of tyranny in the countryside? But you only see the village men fighting for rice. The village women repeatedly talk about their family's shortcomings. It is ridiculous! During the Taiping period, you planned military and military affairs in the nest of bandits. What you saw was just a robbery. You were even more ridiculous. You could not lie dormant for the opportunity to succeed, you could not have a place to use your skills, and you could not have a place to display military affairs. It is sad!" Zheng Zhi seemed a little excited and his tone increased. Wu Yong was perhaps talented, but this talent was not where he should be displayed.
There are many hidden dangers in the Song Dynasty, but it is still a peaceful and prosperous era. There is no room for rebels to grow. Rebellion will be a flash in the pan. This is one of the reasons why Chen Sheng and Wu Guang were defeated, and Liu Bang, a mud-legged person, can succeed. Before the world is chaotic, bandits will eventually be just bandits.
Wu Yong's entrusted was not human, Chao Gai and Song Jiang did not have such a talented and stubborn strategy, but was just a pawn in the hands of others.
Wu Yong was stunned for a moment when he heard the words, but he was still dissatisfied and said, "The principles in the world are the kings, and the losers are the enemies. How can there be so many truths? Although I, Wu Yong, died here today, I cannot get the vast world to show my ambitions, and my life will be the time. But I, Liangshan, will definitely defeat you."
"Most winners are similar, while those who lose are their own failures. The scholars don't think much about it, and eat and drink well. Today, Mr. Lu is a meal of wine and food, and he doesn't treat this last meal badly." Zheng Zhi had a verbal confrontation in front of him. He wanted to convince Wu Yong in theory, but he had already thought through it thoroughly at this time.
People do not convince with words, but they ultimately understand it themselves. Even if they can be said more than reason, they cannot convince a person. People’s hearts do not surrender to others, but will only influence themselves.
Lu Junyi listened for a long time, not confused. He roughly understood the meaning of many words, but he couldn't speak and didn't want to make any comments. He just said, "I'll go down and arrange a few good dishes to eat and drink tonight."
After saying that, Lu Junyi left the door and called Li Gu to explain how many times.
No matter how long the food and food were served, everyone started to eat.
Wu Yong also moved his chopsticks a few times, but he was worried. How could he really eat and drink? In the face of life and death, any delicious food is like chewing wax.
Wu Yong asked again: "Mr. Zheng, what should you do if you take charge of Liangshan?"
When Zheng Zhi heard Wu Yong's words, he didn't know that Wu Yong was really thinking about something, and said: "Build high walls, accumulate grain, and be king slowly!"
These nine words are guided by Zhu Yuanzhang's main policy of anti-Yuan. Building high walls means managing the base area well. Raising grain means developing comprehensive strength. If you slowly become king, you will not be in a hurry to stand up and wait for the opportunity.
The main reason why Liangshan failed was that the green forests in the rivers and lakes were too popular. Without a real base, most of the money, food and things were plundered. They were at the beginning and became the target of public criticism, and the court was in great trouble.
Including the later king of rebellion, Li Zicheng, also failed here. No army in a real base is a big gamble that cannot be defeated, and cannot be re-run, and the outcome must be determined. The forces with bases have always been indomitable. If they fail, they are dormant and develop and start again.
There is also the success of a great man in later generations, so I won’t talk much about it.
When Wu Yong heard the words, he naturally understood the truth, but he remembered Song Jiang again and said, "I, Liangshan, can be called a thief, but it is not a thief. Everyone has a loyal heart. It is just a dog official who is rampant and a treacherous dynasty. In the future, he will definitely be the side of the purity of the lord!"
"Hmph... I deceive myself. I robbed the state prefecture and turned around and said that I was not a thief. The world is vast, thousands of miles north and south, thousands of miles east and west. If you ask about the billions of people in the world, is Liangshan a thief?" Zheng Zhi really felt ridiculous. Recruiting peace seems to be a good road, and it is so good that it is ridiculous. Who would believe the loyalty of a thief?
Even if you are recruited, you will be consumed by someone as a chess piece and a battle formation. For the current dynasty, you will only kill two birds with one stone. Who cares about whether you are loyal?
A good meal was naturally not pleasant to eat. Wu Yong's words could not argue with Zheng Zhi, and he couldn't eat a few bites.
The food was not very enthusiastic, and there was no drinking or laughing. Only Lu Da and a few people were talking and talking and laughing.
Even Lu Junyi looked around and listened to him for a few moments. Lu Junyi thought that Wu Yong had some talent to learn. There was only one sentence, which was to say Wu Yong.
