Niu Youdao was stunned for a moment. When he realized the meaning of the other party's words, his eyes suddenly lit up, he stood up suddenly, high-fived and praised: "Okay! With Commander Meng here, there is no need to worry about the rebels being destroyed!"
That was a look of sincere appreciation. The war, which was a headache for everyone in the Yan Kingdom, was unexpectedly seen as nothing more than a trivial matter in the eyes of this old commander. It was really high!
He knew nothing about fighting, especially this chaotic war. He didn't dare to give random orders, and naturally he didn't dare to speculate on his own. He was entangled in the disturbances from all sides and didn't even think about it, so he invited this person.
Come and ask for advice. Only after asking for advice will you know what it means to be a master who can clear the clouds and see the sun. How can you be unhappy?
Meng Shanming waved his hand otherwise, "It's easy to say, but not easy to do. Once the Nanzhou army leaves Nanzhou, I'm afraid the imperial court will obstruct everything and won't easily let the Nanzhou army come back and take the opportunity to annihilate our Nanzhou army."
A state army is also possible."
Gao Jiancheng had already mentioned this point, and Niu Youdao nodded knowingly.
Meng Shanming continued: "The most difficult thing is not this, but the word 'justifiable'. Why should Nanzhou formulate a battle plan for the princes to implement? Why should Nanzhou give orders to the princes? It is wrong to order and command the people of the world.
If you conspire to rebel, the imperial court will be the first to refuse!"
Niu Youdao: "What Meng Shuai means is that he needs the imperial court to give him the power to give orders?"
Meng Shanming nodded: "The one who holds this power is the Grand Sima! Before, King Ning was the Grand Sima of the Yan Kingdom, and now it is Shang Yongzhong, a relative of the royal family. Shang Yongzhong is your Majesty's yes-man. You can ignore it, but can your Majesty agree?"
Once the prince is given the power to command the people of the world, if the prince uses this to put down the rebellion that the court is helpless to do, the people's will and his prestige will probably make your majesty shudder!"
"That's it." Niu Youdao nodded slowly. He understood the secret and was very happy. No wonder the other party said that it was both easy and difficult to quell the chaos, and asked: "Can Commander Meng have a way to get the court to hand over these things?"
Great power? If you have a way, just say it and I will find a way to handle it."
Meng Shanming shook his head: "After finally taking away the power from Prince Ning, how can your Majesty easily delegate power again, especially to the prince? I have thought about this for a long time, but I am at a loss. Master Dao asked me, I asked the wrong question.
I know a thing or two about fighting, but fighting in the court is not my specialty. It’s a pity that Luo Shaofu died early. Luo Shaofu was good at this. When King Ning missed the throne, he was still able to support the Yan Dynasty. It was not because of us.
These warriors are all the result of Luo Shaofu. This guy suppressed the government internally and the other countries externally. It can be said that he single-handedly helped the weak Yan Dynasty to its later prosperity. It would be great if he was here. What happened back then is like a mystery, and it is still unknown to everyone today.
I can't understand, with Luo Shaofu's ability and means, how could he easily be in danger with the prince? When I retired to seclusion, it was actually Luo Shaofu who persuaded me privately. Now that I think about it, has Luo Shaofu realized something and wanted to protect me? "
Niu Youdao didn't know anything about what he said, and he had no intention of doing so at the moment. He asked again: "How about letting the three major factions force Shang Jianxiong to hand over this power?"
Meng Shanming still shook his head, "That's disgusting! Nowadays, the millions of troops fighting against South Korea and Song Dynasty are all from your Majesty's group. The three major factions probably don't dare to force them to jump over the wall. Once chaos breaks out, it will be a disaster."
It is no longer a Cangzhou Rebellion."
Having said this, Niu Youdao also felt troubled and couldn't help but sigh, "The chaos and injustice in the Yan country will sooner or later affect our Nanzhou. Wu Gongling, Wu Gongling, his troubles have made the whole Yan country restless and people panic.
"
Meng Shanming: "I have long seen that this person is rebellious, and I have been suppressing him all those years ago. If King Ning had not stopped him at the beginning, I would have eliminated him long ago. His brother Wu Gongshan was most likely killed by him."
"Oh!" Niu Youdao was curious, "Did Meng Shuai have any grudge against him back then?"
Meng Shanming: "There is no need to talk about any grudges. At that time, his brother Wu Gongshan was only a hundred captain. In order to stand out, he braved the risk of being beheaded and emerged from the army. He led the horse for King Ning and fell to the ground. He knelt down as a horse.
King Ning was moved and assigned a thousand elite soldiers to him. He took the lead and fought to the death, conquered dangerous areas, and took his life to clear the pass for King Ning's army. Wu Gongshan became famous because of this battle, and fell into King Ning's eyes.
Wang favors and promotes people all the way, so that he can come later."
Niu Youdao was surprised, "What does it have to do with Wu Gongling?"
Meng Shanming: "That battle was a life-and-death battle. Wu Gongshan was injured. After the war, I went to visit him in person, but I heard the two brothers arguing outside the tent. Wu Gongling vented his dissatisfaction on his brother, saying how could a seven-foot tall man kneel down?
When I was sitting on a horse stool, my words were quite disrespectful to the prince. I knew at that time that if this man could not carry out his wishes in the future, he would rebel. I opened the curtain and entered. One brother was lying on the sick bed, and the other was standing beside the sick bed.
Everyone broke into a cold sweat when they saw me entering."
Niu Youdao could imagine the situation at that time. In the army, Meng Shanming's words were enough to kill the two brothers without burial. He asked with a smile: "Commander Meng is the decisive person in killing, why did he let it go and kill him early?"
Is there any trouble after today?"
Meng Shanming: "I don't want to let it go. At that time, the sword on my waist had already been drawn out one foot. It happened that King Ning was worried about Wu Gongshan's injury, so he came to visit him personally, but was stopped by King Ning. Later, Wu Gongshan went to war.
Wu Gongling will not hesitate to give in if he works hard to achieve meritorious service. Prince Ning promotes two brothers, and I will stop one of them!"
Niu Youdao smiled and asked: "Suppress Wu Gongling?"
Meng Shanming nodded: "I will only give you a deputy position, and I will not give you the opportunity to hold military power. Before I retired, I repeatedly told Mr. Luo not to give this person a chance."
Niu Youdao: "It's no wonder, I have been wronged by Meng Shuai for so many years."
Meng Shanming shook his head: "Once such a person holds military power, the consequences will be unimaginable. How can we condone it? If it were not for military exploits and fear of shaking the morale of the army, I would have killed him long ago. Now that I think about it, I was too merciful as a woman. Having harmed Wu Gongshan,
It also left such troubles for Dayan."
Niu Youdao sighed endlessly after hearing this. The grudges and grudges in this world are really endless and confusing.
The two talked for a long time before they came out. Shang Shuqing had been waiting outside, and Yuan Gang also showed up.
Under the eaves, Meng Shanming, who was sitting in a wheelchair, saw Yuan Gang and said with regret, "He is bold and careful, fearless in the face of danger, flexible in mind, calm and brave, he is also proficient in writing, and he also knows loyalty. He has the all-round qualities of an excellent general."
The condition is that he is a rare general. With training and experience, he will surely shine brightly and become famous all over the world. Don't you feel that you are humiliating your talent by being hidden in this villa? Why don't you let him follow me?"
Niu Youdao refused, "If you want to be famous all over the world, for me, it is better for him to live well than anything else." He walked down the steps with his sword.
Meng Shanming sighed softly.
Shang Shuqing didn't know what Niu Youdao had specially invited Meng Shanming to talk about. When he saw someone coming out, he stepped forward and talked enthusiastically with Meng Shanming.
Yuan Gang invited Niu Youdao aside and whispered: "Lei Zongkang and Wu Sanliang are back."
Niu Youdao immediately knew that he had the answer, otherwise the people sent to inquire would not have suddenly withdrawn and immediately asked: "What's the situation?"
Yuan Gang: "I should have gone to Piaomiao Pavilion."
Niu Youdao: "What do you mean should, is it confirmed?"
"I dare not say it in other places. Are there other forces in that area that dare to exist? Although the people are not following in place..." Yuan Gang gave the general tracking situation.
Niu Youdao was silent for a while, and finally said slowly: "It seems that unfortunately I guessed correctly, he is really from Mianmiao Pavilion..." After thinking for a long time, he reminded in a low voice, "Tell the relevant personnel not to say anything, Baili Jie and Gongsun Bu don't want to
Move and act as if nothing happened."
Yuan Gang: "With such a person by your side, can you feel at ease?"
Niu Youdao: "There is nothing we can do if we can't rest assured. After getting rid of Gongsun Bu, the other side will also install a second Gongsun Bu. Can each of us find out in time? What we have in our hands is better than what we can't. Better.
Fortunately, Piao Miao Pavilion always looks on with a cold eye and will not interfere easily without touching their interests. You have to be aware of how to guard against it, what should be let to the other party and what should not be let to the other party."
Yuan Gang nodded.
Niu Youdao: "I want to go to the capital in person, and I will take the matchmaker with me. You can keep an eye on me at home."
Yuan Gang was shocked, "Master Tao, the capital city is like a dragon's pond and a tiger's den. Shang Jianxiong will not let you go. It's too late to hide from him. How can you throw yourself into a trap?"
Niu Youdao waved his hand, "It's not as exaggerated as you think. No one knows that I will go. I will go quietly and return quietly. Nothing will happen."
Yuan Gang still objected, "Master Dao, I don't agree, it's too dangerous."
Niu Youdao shook his head, "There are no eggs left behind when the nest is overturned. The situation is chaotic and too big. We don't have enough plans for many things. We don't dare to act rashly without experience. I hesitate in my heart. I must go to the capital in person to ask for advice from experts. If I don't do it,
Now that I know it in my heart, I really don’t dare to make a decision easily, this time it is imperative.”
Yuan Gang tried to ask, "Gao Jiancheng?"
Niu Youdao nodded in acquiescence.
Later, Niu Youdao found Guan Fangyi and invited her to go with him to escort Meng Shanming back to Fucheng.
Guan Fangyi was not happy with running around like this, "What are you doing? As for the two of us guarding together?"
After all, Niu Youdao wanted to go, so she finally had to follow him. She also felt something fishy in her heart and wanted to see what Niu Youdao was up to.
Three more large birds flew away into the sky. Yuan Gang watched them off, feeling both worried and relieved.
After finding out Baili Jie's background, at least there is no need to tie up Sha Huanli and Xue Luo'er anymore.
Otherwise, he could have imagined how unbearable the next scene would be. Bailijie could not be killed, but could only be controlled. Bailijie's background was too tough, so tough that others could not control it. Master Dao tied up those two women.
No need to say what one of them will do, most likely, Bailijie will let him sleep with him again.
During this period, the woman knew what happened, but she did not know who had molested her, and then she was released, leaving Bailijie to know who she had molested.
This was probably more uncomfortable than letting Bailijie kill the woman. Even if she was forced by others, Bailijie would not dare to say anything afterwards.
For other things, those who are forced may be okay, but what if they give the granddaughter of the Nine Supreme Beings and the like? The consequences can be imagined. Do you still expect that the raw rice and cooked rice will take advantage of the situation to achieve good things? Baili Jie will be beaten to death.
Don't dare to say it!
He, Yuan Gang, is not willing to do such low things.
