Bu Qun and Li Nian were also looking at Pei Ju. Under the dim light in the room, an old man stood up and stood with a smile, as calmly as if he was entertaining guests at home.
Regardless of anything else, both of them secretly admired him in their hearts. The former famous official of the Sui Dynasty was indeed extraordinary, and his magnanimity alone was heartbreaking.
It's just that this person... is too old? It would be great if he can stand firm at such an old age. What other good ideas can he give?
The two of them had been fighting abroad for a long time, and were used to seeing wolf-like and tiger-like sergeants. They were both a little uncomfortable when they suddenly came in front of such an old man.
The two of them clasped their fists and returned the salute. Bu Qun smiled and said, "Bu Qun, the general leading the left army, has met Duke Pei."
Li Nian also said: "General Zuo Wuwei, Li Nian, has met Duke Pei."
Pei Ju smiled and said: "It turns out that General Bu and General Li have arrived. Ju has been famous for a long time. When I saw them today, they turned out to be extraordinary. I'm very lucky."
It sounded a bit perfunctory, but his attitude was sincere, and the old man stood with his hands tied, as if he were a distinguished guest.
Bu Qun and Li Nian looked at each other and felt a little embarrassed. Bu Qun said to himself that Li Wushou had a bad idea and shouldn't have come up with it. It was not right to tell Dou Jiande's subordinates about Dou Jiande.
If the news spreads, there's no telling how it will spread, and everyone will be in danger.
Li Nian also felt a little regretful at this time. He shouldn't have spoken too much and came up with any ideas. They, the Miyuan Li family, were relatives, so they could just sit back and sit down. Why would they join in the fun with Bu Qun?
However, both of them are ambitious and courageous people. Now that they are here, they will not show any timidity, let alone turn around and leave.
Bu Qun chuckled and said, "Pei Gong's name is as loud as thunder. I wanted to ask for advice when I entered the city. It's our fault that we arrived too late and frightened Gong Pei."
Pei Ju didn't mean to be surprised at all. While guessing their purpose, he said: "Old and decayed people have long been unable to drive. What kind of reputation can a person like me have?"
Now that the two generals are here, let's sit down and talk, and just ask for advice. If you have anything to ask, feel free to speak up."
Bu Qun was not polite and took the lead to sit down on the couch. Li Nian then sat down and said first, "I have heard that Mr. Pei is extremely resourceful. Why don't you guess what our purpose is?"
This is the most direct challenge launched by latecomers to their predecessors. It is said that talented people emerge from generation to generation, and each has led the way for hundreds of years. He and Bu Qun led the army to fight in the north and south for many years. His courage has long been unique, and he naturally stands out in front of his predecessors.
To compare.
Speaking of which, compared with famous former Sui officials like Pei Ju, there is actually a big difference between the people before and after them. They are very pure military generals, and the idea of becoming a general or a prime minister is still far away from them.
Even though they had outstanding military exploits, there was actually a big gap between them and other famous ministers and generals of the former Sui Dynasty, let alone compared with Pei Ju.
Those people not only experienced the war to unify the world, but also made remarkable achievements in the fields of politics, diplomacy and other fields. It can be said that the special background of the times created a situation where famous officials emerged in large numbers in the former Sui Dynasty.
Later, people gained a lot of experience and lessons from it, so they reformed the political and military system intentionally or unintentionally. For example, Li Po's ministers, from now on, it is difficult to achieve the same achievements as the famous officials of the Sui Dynasty.
This has nothing to do with the talents of each person, but is caused by changes in the general environment, because various reforms in the government and military have caused the ministers to lose the stage to display their talents.
The reason why the famous officials of the Sui Dynasty did not become famous later is probably due to what Yang Guang did. Take Pei Ju as an example. If his experience and achievements were placed in any subsequent dynasty, they would be remembered and praised by future generations.
, it is easy to leave a name in history.
However, after experiencing a setback in the last years of Daye, Pei Ju's reputation was greatly ruined. He was ranked as a treacherous minister along with Yu Shiji and others. It can be said that his reputation was ruined in one day.
As for Gao Xi, Yang Su, Su Wei and other famous officials who founded the emperor, they are generally similar. The death of two generations before the Sui Dynasty was a devastating blow to their reputations.
For example, Yang Shuang, Li Mu, Wei Shizheng, Han Qinhu, He Ruobi, Shi Wansui, Duan Wenzhen, Yu Zhongwen, Yu Wenshu, Xue Shixiong and so on. Later generations can hardly remember their names.
But their achievements in the Sui Dynasty were so dazzling. How many people in later generations can compare with them?
Of course, having said that, this does not hinder Bu Qun, Li Nian is so energetic, and as a rising star who is the winner, it is difficult for the seniors to compete with him.
As for Pei Ju, who was the first waver, he calmly accepted the difficulties and said with a smile: "I'm a newbie who only has words to talk about, so I'm not afraid of making guesses.
The two generals have experienced hundreds of battles, and now they have led a large army to annihilate the princes. They have carried out orders and prohibitions, and they have achieved military success. I don't need to talk about military matters. In my opinion, there are only two things that need to be considered now.
First, to pacify Hebei and Shandong, we still need help. I am older and have little reputation. Can I help you?"
Having said this, he looked at the expressions of the two of them, and when he saw that they remained calm, he thought to himself that he seemed to have guessed wrong.
Thinking about it, the Tang army was so powerful that there was no need to surrender people to attack the city and plunder the land. And given the current situation in Hebei and Shandong, actually the effect of surrendering people is not very big.
Governing a place... there are so few people, no matter how good the governance is, there is no way to achieve good results. The so-called clever woman can't make a meal without rice, otherwise, she wouldn't have failed so quickly.
"Secondly, the only thing that can make the two generals worry is whether we will leave or stay, especially Dou Jiande. He is from a humble background, and he wants to kill him to eliminate future troubles. Yi Er... With this in mind, I have to say that the two generals
Loyalty is truly commendable..."
As he talked, Pei Ju also felt that something was wrong. He was looking for him to discuss this matter, so... who did these two people think of him? Do they really think that he, Pei Ju, was the seller's traitor?
Before he could sort it out, Bu Qun over there slapped his thigh and said with a smile: "Mr. Pei is indeed well-deserved. In Pei Gong's opinion, Dou Jiande still can't kill him? So that Mr. Pei can know that Xiao Mian is dead."
Last year, when the army came to Jiangling City, Xiao Mian surrendered, and was soon killed in the palace by Liang's ministers. If we follow suit, Your Majesty, he won't blame us for taking our own initiative, right?"
Li Nian grinned and said to himself, "You can't speak, so let us ask you. How can you say it so straightforwardly? It won't make people laugh at us because we don't have a city."
Pei Ju also hesitated. He really felt that this guy was a bit vulgar, and he looked a lot like Tong Guangshou and others. He might lose his head in the future without even knowing it.
But his attention is not here. Xiao Mian is already dead? Even if he expected it, it still shocked him. Last year... he also died in a battle?
If this is true, will the world soon be peaceful? Also, since Li Yuan is dead, who else can resist Li Ding'an?
In one sentence, Tang Jun's strategy for the past two years was presented to him...
