Zhu Di said to Dao Yan: "Why don't you go to rest? What are you doing in the king's tent?" Zhu Di's current attitude towards Dao Yan is definitely not friendly.?? It was okay when he was in front of others, but now other people
All the generals went out, and Zhu Di stopped holding on to them hypocritically.
Dao Yan didn't care what Zhu Di's attitude was, but said directly: "Your Highness, what your Highness just said is not everything. Even after meeting with Xie Cheng, the situation will not be too good."
"Fortunately, His Highness has already sent people to take control of Shanhaiguan. Otherwise, if the army from outside the pass invades, we will be attacked on all sides."
Zhu Di said: "Then is there anything you can do?"
Dao Yan said: "First, of course, after meeting with Xie Cheng, we must pacify Baoding and other places as soon as possible and gather the local guards. The poor monk has several plans..."
Then after Dao Yan finished talking about several of his plans, he continued: "Secondly, King Ning has three guards of Wuliangha under his command, and the three guards of Wuliangha are not ordinary guards, but composed of Mongolian descendants.
’s health center.”
"Over the years, the three guards of Wuliangha have cultivated their sound and become quite strong. They can produce an army of tens of thousands. These are brave cavalry. With them, His Highness's strength will be greatly increased."
"What's more, the three guards of Wuliangha have a large number of horses, which can further increase the strength of His Highness. And His Highness King Ning is a bit naive. Although he is very powerful in dealing with foreign enemies, if His Highness wants to make a profit against Ning,
It’s easy for His Highness too.”
"The third one is to target the princes near Peiping."
"Beiping is one of the Nine Borders, and there are many vassal kings nearby. There are King Ning and King Liao in the northeast, King Gu in the northwest, and King Dai and King Jin in the west. And the most capable troops in the Nine Borders are in the hands of the vassal kings.
.”
"Under such circumstances, how can His Highness not use the fact that he is also a feudal king to win over other feudal princes?"
"Even if there is no vassal king who will follow His Highness Qing Jun, he can still disturb the court and delay the court's large-scale use of troops."
Zhu Di understood what Dao Yan meant. Although he didn't think it would have much effect this time, it was just a delay for a while, but since it wouldn't cost too much, Zhu Di would certainly give it a try.
Zhu Di said: "Of course I will give it a try, but it will just delay it for a while."
Dao Yan said: "Your Highness, you are not just delaying for a while. The King of Zhou who is in trouble is your Highness's brother. If you make good use of this identity, your Highness's chance of success will be greater."
Sun Shao, the right guard of the King of Yan, felt something was wrong when the army marched out from Peiping. The King of Qi in Shandong rebelled, so how could your Majesty mobilize the army of the King of Yan who was far away in Peking to suppress the rebellion? First, Your Majesty might be suspicious of other vassals because of King Qi's rebellion.
Wang, secondly, Peiping is not close to Shandong, so it would be better to mobilize troops from Henan or Jianghuai to put down the rebellion.
When his daughter-in-law Tan Wei'er heard about this incident, she declared on the spot: 'This must be a rebellion by His Highness King Yan!'
However, although Tan Wei'er's analysis was very reasonable, Sun Shao still couldn't believe it. In order to know what was going on, he had been trying to ask his uncle Sun Yan for the past few days. Sun Yan didn't know what was going on.
After retiring due to injuries, he came back as a military commander this time.
However, he has been marching in a hurry these days, and he is not in Sun Yan's Qianhu, so he has no chance to talk to Sun Yan.
Although they were also marching urgently today, Zhu Di did not order them to get up before dawn tomorrow and continue marching this time. This meant that they could rest for a while, so Sun Shao also took time to visit Sun Yan.
Sun Yan was a little surprised when he saw Sun Shao and asked, "What are you doing here?"
Sun Shao looked around carefully and said after making sure there was no one else nearby: "Uncle, what exactly is His Highness King Yan going south to do this time?"
Sun Yan narrowed his eyes after hearing Sun Shao's words and said, "Besides quelling Cheng Ni's rebellion, what else can be done?"
Sun Shao was very familiar with Sun Yan, and he immediately realized that Sun Yan must not have meant what he said. This discovery made Sun Shao even more panicked, so he continued to ask: "Uncle, I am your nephew, why do you want to hide it from me? "
Sun Yan realized that he probably couldn't hide it, so after making sure that there was no one else nearby, he said: "Shaoer, Your Highness, he wants to rebel and go south to join Xie Cheng."
Although he was mentally prepared to some extent, when he heard Sun Yan admit this, he still felt as if the earth was shaking.
After a while, Sun Yan was urging him to return to his Qianhu. Sun Shao said: "Uncle, besides His Highness King Yan, are there any other vassal kings who have responded to the rebellion?"
Sun Yan said: "I don't know, probably not. Even now I know that King Qi didn't want to rebel on his own, but was coerced by his subordinates."
Sun Shao's face turned pale and he continued: "Then, how can the rebellion succeed with the help of Xie Cheng's soldiers from Shandong and His Highness King Yan?"
Hearing Sun Shao's question, Sun Yan also sighed. He had no confidence in the success of Zhu Di's rebellion, but since he had embarked on this path, he could only go to the dark side.
But Sun Shao was different from him in front of him. Sun Yan did not answer Sun Shao's question, but looked at him and said: "Shao'er, you must not let others know that you know about His Highness King Yan's rebellion."
"If you don't know anything and are just being coerced into rebelling, there is no big crime. At most, you will lose your worldly position and start over as a big-headed soldier. But if you knew about it a long time ago, then the crime will be big."
"I have nothing else to do, but you are different. Even if Heng'er and I are executed for rebellion in the future, our Sun family will still have to leave descendants."
Sun Shao also understood this truth and said: 'Uncle, it's not like this. You can only have a family of a thousand at most, and our family comes from Fengyang.'
Sun Yan said: "You don't understand. Your Majesty will definitely not let the rebels go this time."
"Just remember what I say. Don't let others know that you know about His Highness King Yan's rebellion. Go back and don't let others doubt you."
"In addition, I asked Rui'er not to be too brave when fighting. I will also try not to let you Qianhu take the lead and let you survive. However, don't tell Rui'er about King Yan's rebellion. Tell your highness personally about it. Don’t let Rui’er know about it beforehand.”
Sun Shao agreed and said: "Uncle, nephew knows."
Sun Yan said: "Then you go back."
Finally, he urged: "Remember, your own life is the most important."
