The answer to this question was the same even for the newly joined Liao Jia. Xun Zhen even said bluntly: "My lord, you must never agree to this matter. Unless we are cowardly, we will actually be injured in the battle of Yongguguan." How can I still have the strength to fight again if I have no energy?"
This reason is the most basic.
Actually?
Fighting is for profit.
If there is no profit, why fight?
The location of Longwu County is too remote, and the neighbors next door are still restless. How many troops can they mobilize to participate in this so-called "Dragon Slaying Bureau"? Even if they pretend to be fat, how can Shen Tang really lead the troops there? How much say do you get?
All the previous plans to revitalize Longwu County have not yet come to fruition, and it is in the most embarrassing period - so poor that there are no people, no money, no food! What is the point of fighting this war? Zheng Qiao is hated by people, if If you have the ability to send troops to attack, of course you can.
But do they have this ability now?
The family background is too thin!
It would be better——
Just watch and reap the benefits.
This is the unanimous thought of the scribes present, but they think so in their hearts, but they cannot say that they are so mercenary.
"Zhang Yongqing invited us only to overthrow the tyranny. Logically speaking, we should not refuse." Jiang Sheng sighed solemnly and changed the topic, "But the lord should always consider the livelihood of the people under his rule. If he raises more troops, he will They put themselves to death..."
In a nutshell - it's not that they don't want to fight, let alone that they are afraid of the tyrant Zheng Qiao, but that they really have no choice but to have difficulties. The lord is the most kind-hearted, so how can he watch the people under his rule fall into dire straits again?
Liao Jia also added: "What Han Zhang and Xian Deng said is absolutely true. Furthermore, the biggest enemy in front of us is not the tyrant Zheng Qiao, but the Shiwu alien tribe. The lord should be careful and guard against their comeback. I think about this difficult time." Zhang Gong and others can also understand."
He was telling lies with open eyes. Because everyone present knew that Shiwu was half disabled in the last battle. Shen Tang withdrew his troops and horses, leaving only the border garrison led by Chu Jie. Cooperating with the border barrier, Able to hold the permanent pass steadily.
The only possible main combatant present, Gong Shuwu, who had a blood feud with Zheng Qiao, had veins popping out on his forehead, but after taking a few deep breaths, he secretly loosened his clenched fists: "My lord, Wu thought that these gentlemen What he said is absolutely true.”
Zheng Qiao should be punished, but not now.
Uncertain revenge will result in death.
Immediately afterwards, everyone spoke one by one.
Shen Tang listened without saying a word for a long time, his face became more and more ashamed and helpless, and finally he raised his sleeves to cover his face, blaming himself: "Those who do bad things are exposed to the light, and they will be punished. This Zheng Qiao was violent and killed countless innocent people, and even more You can't stay. How could I not know? The blame is simply that Shen is alone and weak, with few soldiers and a weak will... Now I have no choice but to be a villain for once and decline the alliance politely."
Fight this battle?
hehe.
Shen Tang was more reluctant than everyone present. As long as she has no morals, no one can morally kidnap her!!!
Not only could she not be kidnapped by morality, but she also had to maintain her good reputation without any stain. Therefore, after receiving Zhang Yongqing's letter, she immediately summoned everyone for discussion. Once she borrowed their words, she told her story She wanted to do it, but all the staff in the tent objected, and her arm could not twist her thigh; secondly, it also reflected her own attitude, she desperately wanted to fight but did not have the conditions.
Gu Chi: "..."
There are some things that he has long been used to.
However, Liao Jia and Xun Zhen, who joined before him, did not understand Shen Tang's nature yet, so they were moved by her sincere words.
The Lord is so kind.
The better a person is, the heavier his moral guilt is.
But this is not the fault of my lord.
Gu Chi: "..."
There are some things that he has long been used to.
Shen Tang calmed down his emotions, his expression still a bit decadent, and said to Chu Yao: "Wu Hui helped draft a letter to Yong Qing. I just hope that he can understand our difficulties and difficulties." If he doesn't understand, it's him Zhang Yong. Qing is ruthless, unreasonable and vexatious!
Xun Zhen thought about it and added: "My lord, this Huang Lie is not a kind person. If Zhang Gong and others really join him in attacking Zheng Qiao, it will be fine if everything goes smoothly. If not, Huang Lie will be plotted to suffer a loss." Do you want to remind me about this?"
Huang Lie's power can no longer expand.
If he really has 10,000 heavy-shield warriors under his command, and lets him get the national seal, he might be able to sweep away the entire northwest power!
They will also be swept away.
Shen Tang nodded, with a sincere and harmless expression on his face, and opened his mouth with the tone of Tangtang's deep affection: "Well, this is of course necessary. Not to mention Zhang Yongqing, Brother Wu has also helped me a lot before, so what? Can you watch him being framed by an adulterer?"
Use Zhang He and others to contain Huang Lie.
As long as she delays it for another two or three years, when she is almost mature enough to join the game, then the snipe and the clam will fight, and the fisherman will benefit!
You can't force yourself to stand out if you're underdeveloped.
In her heart, she despised the integrity of Zhang Yongqing and others - since it was found that the heavy shield warriors were related to the epidemic, then she should know that Huang Lie was not the culprit of the epidemic, nor was he a good person. In this case, he still wanted to organize a game Slay the dragon, hehehe.
What's the idea?
I'm afraid only they know.
Gee, what a bunch of bastards with ulterior motives.
Shen Tang was muttering in her heart, but she still spoke true, kind and beautiful words - as a good person who can sit in the position of the Leshan Giant Buddha, she regretted that she could not participate in the Dragon Slaying Game, but it did not prevent her from cheering for them from the sidelines and expressing her feelings.
For this reason, she squeezed out her "only" meager possessions through her teeth, hoping that her "good brothers" would not think her actions were shabby.
The messenger quickly learned about the affairs of the council, and saw that Shen Tang was dressed simply, without the style of a leader of any force. The entire Longwu County was extremely poor, so naturally it was hard to force him. He brought Shen Tang's supplies and reply. , hurried back to report.
The messenger walked forward. Shen Tang put away her warm and kind smile and raised her hand to tell everyone: "Do what you have to do."
Although she gave very little, she was heartbroken.
Money, this is all money!
No matter how small a mosquito is, it is still meat!
but--
She still sent spies to pay close attention to the situation of this "Dragon Slaying Bureau". Whichever side of them wins will not benefit Shen Tang; it is best to lose both sides or be in a stalemate. Fighting consumes the most human, financial and material resources, and every moment They are all burning money.
Doesn't her opponent's burning money mean that she is making money?
"However, I still feel a little unhappy."
Shen Tang cursed in his heart.
Gu Chi comforted: "It won't be long, at most two years."
He knows one thing very well - whenever there are conditions for sending troops, his lord will kill him like a wild beast coming out of the gate.
How can handling official duties be as smooth as fighting?
This time of singing, chanting, and fighting was purely due to my own limitations and I had to rely on acting to make up for my disadvantage. No matter how good the reason was, it was just to avoid fighting. Therefore, the lord appeared calm and calm on the surface, but he was already feeling uncomfortable in his heart. Already.
"Two years." Shen Tang pinched his fingers, sneered in the direction of the messenger, raised his hand and pointed, "Then, in two years, it will be the beginning of our sweep across the entire northwest."
