Chapter 802 Two people, different treatment
What is the essence of competition?
That is the competition for talents!
This Shi Bao, no matter whether he is at the same level as Deng Ai or because he has the same name as his brother-in-law, he feels familiar to me.
But if Shi Bao can be compared with Deng Ai, it means that he is at least somewhat capable.
I'm not sure whether Shi Bao has real ability, but I know that Deng Ai, who is used as a reference, does have real ability.
In the spirit of having jujube and not having any jujube, it is better to kill Feng Junhou than let him go. How can he let this person go?
People in this world are either greedy for money, lustful, or power-loving. Most of them cannot escape these types of things.
Listen to what Xi Jun said, this person once asked for an official position, which means he loves power; he is also willing to accept the gold and silver coins given by Xi Jun, and coupled with the painful look of wanting to return the money to Xi Jun, he is greedy for money.
As for whether it’s good or not, I don’t know yet.
But if one of the three accounts for two, then he is considered to be an extremely vulgar vulgar person.
The layman is good, the layman, after all, Feng Junhou is also a layman.
If you want to talk about noble moral integrity, although Feng Junhou can barely manage a few sentences, he always feels a little frightened in his heart.
Just talking about wine, **** and wealth, Feng Junhou had many things in common. For example, he felt that the Emperor of Han Dynasty was easier to deal with than the Prime Minister of Han Dynasty.
After all, he has countless resources at his disposal.
However, Feng Yong can sit in his current position and has a lot of talents at his disposal. This does not mean that he just listens to the reviews and hires people without any brains.
After all, Feng Junhou had a deep understanding of Feng Ping's murder.
So Feng Yong brought up the question he just raised:
“What did Shi Yishi say just now that war is about to break out in Guanzhong?”
You want to say that peace and war are the beginning, or war is beginning in Hanzhong, there is no problem, but if you want to talk about Guanzhong...that is worth debating.
Because according to Feng Yong's memory, Cao Zhen's attack on Hanzhong did not reach Hanzhong for a month, and he retreated halfway.
In the original history, the old demon Zhuge held most of the Han's troops, so he could only watch Cao Zhen leave.
Now, he only has half of his troops at most, and the other half is placed in Longyou.
More importantly, Adou and the Queen are on their way to Hanzhong now, and they don’t know where they are.
Given Zhuge Laoyao’s temperament, Adou’s safety must be his first priority.
If Cao Zhen retreats, I'm afraid Zhuge Lao Yao's wish will be fulfilled.
"Returning to the king, Longyou is the shield between Guanzhong and Hanzhong. If you want to protect Guanzhong, you must protect Longyou; if you want to attack Hanzhong, you must also have Longyou."
Shi Bao’s first sentence attracted Feng Yong.
This statement is somewhat familiar.
Isn’t it what I said to Old Demon Zhuge?
Of course, the second half of the sentence is the first time I heard it.
So Feng Yong asked: "If you want to attack Hanzhong, you must also have Longyou. What does it mean?"
"Your Majesty, there are several ways to enter Hanzhong from Guanzhong, but as long as they are blocked according to the mountainous terrain and dangerous terrain, it will be difficult for the army to disembark, so it is necessary to cooperate with them from Longyou."
"Because to the south of Longyou, there are two counties of Yinping and Wudu. From then on, the two counties can directly connect to Shu."
"At that time, Hanzhong will have to be guarded by divided troops. If Guanzhong and Longyou coordinate, Hanzhong's troops can be mobilized, which will be much easier."
"Now that the Han Dynasty has taken down Longyou, the territory of Shu will be safe! On the contrary, Guanzhong is always under attack from Longyou and Hanzhong, so Han and Wei are fighting, and now Han has taken the initiative."
The more Feng Yong listened, the more surprised he became. He immediately said, "You are such a talented person!"
Historically speaking, cooperating with Longyou and Guanzhong to mobilize Hanzhong troops is the most correct approach to conquer Shu.
If you only want to send troops from Guanzhong, as long as you concentrate your troops on Hanzhong and defend it according to danger, it will be difficult for the large army to enter.
Yinping, the capital of Wu, is the barrier to the northwest of Shu. If you want to defend it, you must guard Longyou.
This time Feng Yong stood up, poured a cup of tea for Shi Bao himself, and asked him to sit down, "Please continue to teach me."
Shi Bao was suddenly a little frightened when he received such courtesy from the famous Feng Wenhe.
Then he glanced at Guan Suo who was standing beside him, and said to himself: This General Guan is really my noble man!
"Therefore, in my opinion, Cao Zhen made a mistake in attacking Hanzhong this time. If he fails to attack Hanzhong, those with foresight in Wei will definitely take the opportunity to attack Longyou first."
"The kings and princes are very talented, and this can be seen in comparison." Shi Bao first complimented Feng Yong, and then continued, "Whether Han went to Longshan first, or Wei went to Longyou first."
“At that time, the prince will lead his own army to fight with Wei in the west, and Hanzhong will threaten Chang’an in the south. There will definitely be a big battle in Guanzhong.”
"What you said means that Cao Zhen is just a person who can't hear anything!" Feng Yong laughed, "What do you mean by your intention?"
Shi Bao kept saying he didn't dare, but after being urged by Feng Yong, he continued, "Before the monarch was restored to peace, I had not figured out a way. But now, I have a plan."
“But come the word.”
"Use suspicious soldiers to attack Hanzhong with a bluff, while the army gathers in Qian County, or takes advantage of its unpreparedness, attacks Longguan through Guanlong Avenue, and enters Longyou; or leads the army back to the middle road and goes north, attacks Xiaoguan, and takes the Chicken Coop Road Enter Longyou."
Guan Ji on the side was a little confused: "But the suspected soldiers will eventually be detected. If the Hanzhong army all marches out and goes straight into Guanzhong, Cao Zhen's army to the west will be difficult to protect."
Confirmed that the General Guan in front of him was his noble man, how could Shi Bao dare to neglect him? He quickly stood up and said: "General Guan, the so-called suspicious soldiers do not necessarily mean small soldiers."
“Just like the king and the general dividing their troops, there is a virtual reality, a virtual reality, a virtual reality, and a virtual reality.”
“Wei has hundreds of thousands of troops stationed in Guanzhong, and only needs tens of thousands to attack and defend Hanzhong. Even if the situation is unfavorable, we can withdraw to defend key areas.”
"At the same time, we will attack the western pass by surprise with tens of thousands of people. We are 50% sure at least."
Guan Ji frowned slightly, she still didn't agree with Shi Bao's point of view.
Feng Yong responded: "This method is probably the best way for Wei to regain the initiative in Guanzhong."
Others don’t know, but how can Feng Yong not know?
In the original history, after the failure of the first Northern Expedition, Zhuge Laoyao wanted to march into Guanzhong from Chencang Road for the second time, but was blocked by thousands of Hao Zhao's troops at the foot of Chencang City.
In the Fifth Northern Expedition, he led 100,000 soldiers out of Guanzhong via the best Xiegu Road, but they were locked in a stalemate with Sima Yi on both sides of the Wei River, unable to advance even an inch, and were eventually dragged to death.
In other words, it is difficult to enter Hanzhong from Guanzhong, but it is equally difficult to enter Guanzhong from Hanzhong.
If Shi Bao's method is followed, whether Longguan or Xiaoguan is captured, it will play a vital role in consolidating Guanzhong.
At that time, as long as the Wei army stays in Guanzhong and defends several strongholds entering Guanzhong from Hanzhong, everything will be fine when the army from the west returns to support.
What's more, Cao Rui can also mobilize troops from the east.
After all, the strength of the Wei State is still much stronger than that of the Han Dynasty today.
It’s just that Feng Yong still has one last question:
"I, the righteous man Guanshi, know the general situation in Guanzhong very well. Why is this?"
Shi Bao had a look of embarrassment on his face: "I don't dare to hide this from the emperor. Since Wei lost Longyou, I have been thinking about ways to break the situation day and night, hoping to use this advice to gain promotion."
"It's just... alas," Shi Bao said with a wry smile again, "In today's Wei State, the way to promotion is mostly controlled by aristocratic families."
“A certain person sells iron as a profession. He is looked down upon by the scholar-bureaucrats. He is also afraid of poverty. He often acts in pursuit of profit. He is said to have no moral character. Therefore, who would be willing to associate with him?”
Himself-professed to be virtuous and not cultivated, but he is an honest person.
Feng Yong laughed and said, "Tai Shigong once said: The bustle in the world is for the benefit of coming; the hustle and bustle of the world is for the benefit of the going."
“I have heard that the state of Wei is still a talkative country and does not do practical work. How can we understand the sufferings of the people?”
"Therefore, in someone's opinion, as long as what you do is the result of your own hard work and does not hurt the people, you will have peace of mind. What does it mean to not cultivate virtue?"
“The words of the prince really spoke to someone’s heart!”
I am really suffering!
Feng Junhou said with emotion: "In ancient times, there was a saying of buying bones for a thousand pieces of gold. Today, wars are rife in the world, but great talents are abandoned. From this point of view, the destruction of the Wei State is inevitable!"
"If Shi Yishi doesn't give up, he can be appointed as a staff officer in our school's mansion, which is similar to joining the army. He can take up the post only when there is a suitable position, okay?"
After Shi Bao had said so much, he might have no intention of recommending himself in front of Feng Yong. Now that he heard that he could be offered a job such as joining the army, he felt much better than before when he wanted to be a royal coachman but couldn't get it. times.
At that moment, he quickly bowed his head and said: "Your Majesty has made arrangements, how dare you disobey me?"
“It’s easy to talk, easy to talk. When someone comes, take Counselor Shi down to rest first.”
Who among the brothers in the Xinghan Society doesn't like money?
Like Zhao Guang, didn’t you call yourself brother at first because you had the hope of progressing with you?
So far?
How many people are willing to die for themselves as long as they give the order?
Those who are not afraid of asking for something, but are afraid of asking for nothing, are the most annoying.
Because you have absolutely nothing to do with him.
Shi Bao followed the female guard out of Feng Junhou's handsome tent, and then he noticed that he was surrounded by female guards with swords and guns. He couldn't help but swallowed secretly at that moment.
The life that Feng Junhou is living is really... extremely enviable!
Feng Junhou borrowed the favor of his mother-in-law and unexpectedly acquired a person who was very likely to be a great talent.
That feeling, that taste, is like betting a thousand dollars on a piece of rough stone that can produce high-quality violet jade.
The pores all over the body are relaxed and feel extremely comfortable.
Looking at Guan Ji, her eyes became hot again.
Because there are some things that are more comfortable than this...
On the second day, Feng Yong got up and felt refreshed, so he went to see someone alone.
This person is Xiahou Ba who was beaten dizzy by his new cavalry.
Feng Yong has not seen Xiahou Ba since he was captured.
The first reason is that Xiahou Ba was seriously injured at the time, so he had to be treated first.
Then he had to rush to Linjing to take charge of the overall situation and had no time.
Of course, Feng Junhou will definitely not admit that this is partly because of Siniang's relationship, and he has not yet figured out how to face Xiahou Ba.
After all, meeting your uncle is like meeting your mother...
“General Xiahou looks good today.”
Feng Yong came to the temporary military prison that was under strict guard, saw Xiahou Ba sitting there with his eyes closed, and said with a smile.
Hearing this, Xiahou Ba opened his eyes and saw a young man standing in front of him. He frowned slightly at the moment:
"Who are you?"
“I’m Feng Yong.”
Feng Yong raised his hand and reported his family background.
“Huh? Feng Wenhe?”
Xiahou Ba did not expect that the person he thought about day and night, who tricked him into defeat and was captured, was actually the person in front of him.
“Ahem, General Xiahou, someone’s name is Feng Mingwen, not Wenhe.”
Feng Junhou had a forced smile on his face, gritted his teeth, and explained emphatically.
Xiahou Ba knew he had made a mistake. His face twitched, and the indifference on his face could no longer be maintained. He coughed and reorganized his words:
“So you are Feng Yong, known as Xiao Wenhe? That’s disrespectful.”
Could you please stop mentioning "Wenhe" all the time?
Feng Yong had a look of concern on his face: "Is General Xiahou's injury getting better?"
Xiahou Ba was surprised that this man cared about him so much, but he couldn't bear to treat him coldly: "It's much better. I haven't thanked General Feng yet for letting someone heal his wounds."
“No need to thank you, we’re all one family...ahem!”
Feng Junhou spoke without hesitation and choked on his own saliva.
I thought the other party was here to show off, but it turned out that he was so reserved, which made Xiahou Ba a little confused:
Is this person really Xiao Wenhe, who is known as a clever talker? Why do you look like you have never seen the world and rarely interacted with people?
“What plans does General Xiahou have in the future?”
"What else can I do? Since I fell into your hands, my skills are inferior to others. If I want to kill or fight, I will leave it to you."
Although the other party was kind enough to heal his injuries, Xiahou Ba never thought that he would survive.
After all, the other party is so kind, maybe he has the intention to make you surrender?
If this is true, it can only mean that Feng Yong is overthinking. He has sworn hatred with the Shu captives, and he would rather die than surrender.
Feng Yong can naturally understand this.
He sat down in front of Xiahou Ba and said, "I know the general is unwilling to surrender, but I can't kill the general. Let the general go back. That's impossible."
Now the Xiahou family is still considered a prominent family in Cao Wei, plus the relationship between Xiahou Yuan and Xia Hou Rong (Xiahou Ba's younger brother) died in the battle in Hanzhong.
Given Xiahou Ba's current situation, it would be extremely difficult to get him to surrender.
But to let him go...how stupid do you have to be to do that?
"So I have been thinking about it and want to ask the general to go to a place."
Xiahou Ba was even more surprised when he heard that Feng Yong said "cannot kill" instead of "unwilling to kill".
From the time he came in until now, both his behavior and speech have been eccentric, making it difficult for people to figure out what malicious intentions he has.
Thinking of this person's title of "cruel and ruthless Xiao Wenhe", Xiahou Ba suddenly became vigilant: I can't be deceived by this person's appearance!
"How are you doing? Where do you want me to go?"
"Hanzhong. I don't hide it from General Xiahou. The emperor of the Han family is about to come to Hanzhong. Queen Zhang will be traveling with him. General Xiahou, you also know that you and the Zhang family are..."
“Shut up!”
Xiahou Ba’s face turned red.
I knew that Xiao Wenhe had no good intentions!
At that time, there was great turmoil in my hometown, and my elders would rather abandon their young son to support their deceased uncle's orphaned daughter, who was also his younger sister.
It can be imagined how important this concubine is to the adults?
I did n’t know that Zhang ’s surname was a rim thief, and he actually took the sister away.
Every time I think of this matter, your Excellency, who is already the commander-in-chief of an army, sheds tears many times.
This is really another great hatred of the Xiahou family!
Now this person named Feng dared to mention this matter in front of him, which was simply insulting.
But seeing Xiahou Ba's chest rising and falling violently, he was extremely angry, so he immediately spat on Feng Yong's face:
“How dare you, thief!”
