Chapter 639

Meng Shanming understood and said slowly, "the princes are retreating day by day, the rebels are rampant, and the imperial court has to delegate power to Nanzhou. Lord Tao is indeed a good means, but... The rebels are expanding rapidly, and the war is spreading to the land. I don't know how many people want their families to be destroyed."

Niu Youdao knows the truth and encourages the rebels to expand the combat area. In the final analysis, it is the ordinary people who suffer.

"Meng Shuai, the world is like this. Some things are inevitable. We don't compete for the initiative. The initiative falls in the hands of those people. They will never change. The people can't wait for the dawn after a long night. If we have a heart, everything we do is worth it."

Niu Youdao's tone was heavy. He knew that his decision would kill many people. He slowly stood up and wandered around the house.

"Although I don't know how to March and fight, I still know some basic principles. If I encourage the rebels to expand the war situation, the rebels will be tired after a long war. After the war situation expands, the troops should also spread, and it's difficult to take care of each other. It makes the princes unable to retreat together, which can speed up the trend of the rebels to act like this and force them into the end of a strong crossbow. At this time, if an external force is exerted, the bow string will break!"

"At this time, although the princes are defeated, all the people are in place and can fight back at any time. Just wait for Meng Shuai's command! At this time, the worse the situation is, the better it will be for us. The imperial court is incompetent, and the subjects of Dayan are disappointed! The princes are incompetent, and the subjects of Dayan are disappointed! Who can save Dayan? At this time, the son of King Ning rallied his arms and ordered the princes to run away like tigers and wolves And out, sweep the rebellion inside, deter the strong enemies outside, turn the tide, and save Dayan from water and fire. What's the people's heart? "

When he came to mengshanming, he leaned over and asked.

Guan Fangyi, a bystander, was shocked. At this time, she really understood Niu Youdao's real intention.

Mengshanming was silent for a long time. He only had dignified eyes and dark eyes. Finally, he sighed: "master Tao is far sighted. I write a letter!"

Niu Youdao straightened up and motioned to Guan Fangyi. The latter immediately walked away, took pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and personally studied ink for Mengshan.

After tonight, Niu Youdao didn't let Meng Shanming leave. He left Meng Shanming here temporarily and asked Meng Shanming to analyze the war situation and trend for himself at any time.

……

Lush vegetation, close to mountains and rivers, the army is stationed. Xu Jingyue, the governor of Gongzhou, and several ministries linger by the lake.

A pawn came and reported, "my Lord, there is a man outside who asks to see me. He says he is an old friend of my Lord."

"Old friend?" Xu Jingyue turned around and asked, "who is it?"

The pawn said, "I don't know. He won't say it. He said that adults will know when they see him."

Soon, the so-called "old friend" was brought. A friar accompanying Xu Jingyue whispered in her ear, "it's a friar. He has been controlled and searched. There's nothing else but a letter." the letter lit up in her hand.

Xu Jingyue looked at the old friend and found that she didn't know him, so she asked, "who are you and why are you pretending to be an old friend of our house?"

The visitor raised his chin towards the letter, "why, adults will know when they read the letter."

Is the letter for me? Xu Jingyue's eyes returned to the letter.

The friar immediately tore open the envelope, shook a piece of paper from the inside and came out to check. After confirming that there was no problem, he handed it to Xu Jingyue.

Xu Jingyue swept the letter casually, touched the familiar handwriting on the letter, looked moved, and then focused on it.

The more he looked, the more complicated his expression became. Finally, he looked up to the sky with a long sigh, closed his eyes and shook his head slowly, looking unbearable.

The letter was written by Meng Shanming. Meng Shanming denounced in the letter and asked Da Yan why Xu Jingyue didn't kill the enemy and serve the country when he was in danger? Every word and sentence in the letter showed a desire to go to war. Unfortunately, it was clamped down by the imperial court. There was no place to use it. There was no place to vent its grief and anger, so I had to write a letter to denounce it.

……

In the courtyard of the pass where a large number of soldiers gathered, Tu Zhou CI Shi'an, sitting in front of the case, trembled with his hands holding the letter, and his eyes were in tears.

Meng Shanming sends out a sad roar in his letter. He wants to go to the battlefield with his old, weak and disabled bodies. Why should he be embarrassed.

Finally, the letter paper slammed on the record, shook its head, shed tears, and choked with vibrato, "Meng Shuai!"

……

On the official road, the army winds all the way without seeing the end. The war is urgent, but it is dragging on.

Under the roadside tree, Zhang Hu, the governor of Changzhou, holding the letter, suddenly turned around and punched several times on the trunk with a heavy fist. His eyes were red, and the leaves fell one after another.

The deputy general was surprised and said, "Sir, why is this so?"

Zhang Hu showed him the letter.

After reading, the deputy general sighed, "Meng Shuai, why bother? Now it's not the time for King Ning to hold the power of war. Even if the brothers work hard, what can they do? If they die for the country and die in the battlefield, they will become the rebels in the eyes of the imperial court. Who can be willing?"

Zhang Hu put his fists on the tree, bowed his head and said, "I was only a groom in those days. How could I be today without Meng Shuai's help? Meng Shuai cried with blood and grief as an old and disabled man. I really..." he suddenly released his hand and turned around and said angrily: "Wu Gongling is something. He dares to talk wildly about sweeping Dayan. When I was famous on the battlefield, his brother was still leading the king's horse and pedaling. Send orders to the army to speed up immediately!"

The deputy general was surprised, "Sir, you have to think not for yourself, but also for the brothers. Adults have spent all their money. Who will take care of their small family? Do you expect the imperial court?"

Zhang Hu said angrily, "how dare you resist?"

"I..." the deputy general was speechless and could only execute in the end.

Soon, the army accelerated and entered the trot mode.

Zhang Hu and others led a group of Pro guards to gallop to the front of the army.

Almost at the same time, several monks had galloped to catch up with Zhang Hu and said loudly, "why did Mr. assassin suddenly speed up the March?"

Facing the questioning of several monks, finally, Zhang Hu calmed down and looked at the faces of his men and horses. He had to face the reality, and the army moved forward slowly again.

……

In the imperial palace of the state of Yan, Shi Sheng, the elder of Xiaoyao palace, standing under the eaves, stroked his beard in one hand and looked at a letter in the other. What he saw was the letter Meng Shanming wrote to Su Qitong, the governor of Haozhou, and he was the person behind Haozhou.

After he finished reading the letter, the younger martial brother waiting on the side said, "elder martial brother, Su Qitong thinks what Meng Shanming said is reasonable. There are no finished eggs under the nest. I hope we can let go and fight the rebels!"

Su Qitong reprimanded: "what kind of war? Courage of every man! Can he fight well? Do you want to take him to fight Han song? Is it time for him to be strong? All the people in Haozhou are fighting hard, and when Shang Jianxiong can be merciful, he can't be merciful? If your front feet stabilize the situation, his back feet can fill in. Who are the reinforcements waiting for others to die and take the chance?"

The younger martial brother said, "elder martial brother, I don't mean anything else, just paraphrase his meaning."

Just then, a disciple ran quickly and said to Shi Sheng, "master, the leader urgently summoned."

Shi Sheng asked, "what's up?"

The disciple said, "Cangzhou rebels suddenly stepped up their offensive. The offensive was fierce, and the imperial court people and horses retreated day by day."

The two brothers looked at each other and then left quickly.

When they arrived in a temple, several high-level officials of Xiaoyao palace followed them. They basically arrived. They saw long Xiu walking back and forth with a calm face and negative hands.

When everyone arrived, long Xiu asked Yi Shu to report the war.

After that, long Xiu stopped to face the people: "Cangzhou rebels suddenly strengthened their offensive. I'm afraid the situation will change. The disciples in the army facing Han song should immediately remind them to be in place to prevent the opposite army from raiding."

The crowd nodded, and Shi Sheng then said, "leader, civil strife can't be ignored. Do you want the Nanzhou army to come out and fight?"

As soon as he said this, Yi Shu suddenly said, "martial uncle, the cattle thief dares to rob even the grain of the imperial court. Do you expect him to contribute?"

Long Xiu swept away coldly, as if to say, when is your turn to speak here?

Yi Shu lowered his head and knew that he was presumptuous and dared not speak again.

Long Xiu can see that this apprentice is not a general dislike to Niu Youdao. Can he see that he has the intention to marry him?

The idea just flashed through my mind, first pressed to one side, and then to the public: "Now it's time to consume the strength of the East and the West. We can delay this matter and don't rush to let Nanzhou out to break the game. Besides, Niu Youdao is really a little difficult to control. It's not certain whether he will obey and send troops. However, the Cangzhou rebels are not worried. I don't believe that several companies can cooperate to urge the princes to kill him."

Shi Sheng in front of his hand touched the letter in his sleeve. Meng Shanming has made it clear that as long as the imperial court orders, Nanzhou will send troops.

However, he did not take out the letter in the end, otherwise people would see through the attempt if he refused to make efforts in the future.

Long Xiu then asked, "what about the movement of grain in Nanzhou?"

An elder sighed, "yes, it is. There is news from Xue Xiao in Dingzhou. Today, he has handed in 20 more cars. But according to his method, he can only hand over two thousand cars for a hundred days. I'm afraid he can only hand over a fur when the war is over. However, we still take him for lack of temper. We're afraid to force him against us. This guy has nothing to fear!"

Yi Shu secretly bites his teeth and scolds the dog thief!

"Hum!" long Xiu sneered. "See how I can deal with him when I turn back! Hurry, keep urging him to speed up! Didn't he say there was a problem with the vehicle? Let Xue Xiao collect vehicles from Dingzhou to pick up the transportation. I think he has any reason to delay!"

Reason? No reason. Before the vehicles collected by Dingzhou entered Nanzhou, they met a group of masked robbers and defeated the escort of Dingzhou. The people driving the cars were scared to flee.

The robber was so angry that he couldn't grab anything. A fire burned all the vehicles

In Maolu mountain villa, Guan Fangyi hurried to Niu Youdao's yard and found Niu Youdao who was talking with Meng Shanming. He reported: "there is news from Dachen mountain that the grain truck was destroyed. The three factions have not asked us to explain. They have to explain to Dachen mountain. It is a headache for Huang lie to find the robbers in Dachen mountain within three days."

After that, she couldn't help laughing. The three factions knew that it was useless to find here and began to embarrass Dachen mountain.

Niu Youdao: "this is simple. Let Huang lie say that the robbers have fled into the territory of the state of Zhao."

Guan Fangyi couldn't help laughing and said, "you have to hold this batch of grain!"

Niu Youdao shook his head and sighed, "How many people have died when these grains have been transported all the way, and the friars of the five countries from the East and the West have fought each other? Why is the grain safe in Nanzhou? You think I'm really only for the money of Tuhan and song? Similarly, the supplies of Jin and Qi are safest only in Nanzhou. There must be looting and destruction in other places. They will understand later. I'm the real one Those who saved the grain for Dayan will be in my hands without damage! "

Guan Fangyi suddenly realized at this time. She looked at Niu Youdao with complex eyes and realized what it was called painstaking efforts.

Meng Shanming, who was sitting in a wheelchair to listen, looked respectful and finally understood someone's painstaking efforts.
