"Since we just want to buy more time, there is no need for us to fight with them. As long as they are in chaos internally, we can take the opportunity to escape." Mao Bijiang finally made a concluding speech.
Wu Sangui smiled and nodded: "Yes, that makes sense. Our primary goal now is not how to defeat them, but how to widen the distance between us while they are in pursuit. Naturally, we will still be able to chase them."
We have to catch up, but as long as we wait until we reach Nanjing, we can concentrate on fighting them."
Mao Bijiang nodded and retreated to the other side, ready to listen carefully to what Wu Sangui was going to say next.
"I think what Mr. Mao said before may not be unfeasible, but we still need to carefully discuss how to implement it. For example, even if we really plan to retreat, we must decide where to retreat and where to retreat? How can we do it?
Don’t attract their attention and show this disadvantage naturally.”
Of course, the more critical point is how to use this disadvantage to cause internal strife among them? To what extent can they escape safely? If this strategy fails, how will they end up? These are the questions that need to be considered next.
"Mao Bijiang has little talent and little knowledge, and lacks practical experience. What he said and thought are just his own imagination. Generals, you must think carefully. If there is anything that can be improved, we can discuss it with each other at any time."
"Sir, you are too modest. What you said is very reasonable. Even if the basic direction has been set, we still need to carefully analyze how to implement it before making a decision." Dong Fang said with a smile.
"I think that if we really can't determine the big direction, we can test it out on a small scale first, and see if the other party is really as united as they show to share the same hatred!"
"Then what do you want to try?" Zhang Zhao was curious.
"If this thing were to be done, it would be simple. It would only take the effort of writing a few letters, and at most it would be a waste of a few sheets of rice paper."
"You want to write a peace letter to them?" Li Feng could probably guess what Mao Bijiang wanted to write.
"It's not a letter asking for peace," Mao Bijiang corrected him, but after he finished speaking, he also laughed: "Although it's not a letter asking for peace, it's almost the same. I still regard him as a loyal minister and good general, and I tried to persuade him with all my heart.
"
"He didn't intend to write anything real in this letter. He probably wanted to write some specious words so that the other party would misunderstand him. Do you think what I said is correct or not?" Wu Sangui interjected with a half-smile.
"You really can't hide anything from your eyes, general!" Mao Bijiang responded with a chuckle. This was indeed his plan.
First write a letter, and the people on the same side show kindness, and then observe the reactions of other people. From their reactions, you can judge whether their relationship is far or close, and then formulate corresponding coping strategies based on the distance of their relationship.
"Then who are you going to write this letter to?" Wu Sangui asked with a smile.
"I haven't thought about this yet. I wonder what you have to say, General?" Mao Bijiang heard that the other party wanted him to make some suggestions, so he hurriedly asked humbly.
"Takami doesn't dare to say it, but it's just a reference. After all, we have been here for a while, and we are somewhat familiar with each other. There is a very interesting combination among them.
Let me tell you something."
"General, please tell me that if you venture into a new territory, you should listen attentively."
"Did you know that among the people who stayed in the capital, there was Zhu Changhao, King of Rui?"
"I've heard a little bit, but I heard that this person is weak and sick, so he shouldn't be a threat, right?" After all, Mao Bijiang still doesn't know much about these members of the royal family, and what he can know is limited to the versions circulated among the people.
"It is true that he is weak, and the threat is not small. This time, among the four groups of pursuers behind us, two of them have a close relationship with him."
"Which two people are they? I've never heard of them before." Mao Bijiang was surprised. He didn't expect that these people in the capital could still separate two forces to pursue them.
"One of them is his elder brother Hui Wang. These two are half-brothers. On the surface, they have always been on the same road. As for the other one, he is King Heng Zhu Changshu, who has a relatively distant relationship with him.
, but he is still a half-grown child, so he doesn’t have much scheming.”
Mao Pijiang keenly noticed the three words "on the surface" he said. When you taste these three words carefully, you feel that there is a lot to do in them. Therefore, he is very curious about these three words: "Why do you say
On the surface, they work together? Could it be that the relationship between the two is not good? "
"That's right, you really hit the mark. Even though they appear to be working together, in fact, in our opinion, King Hui's real friend is Zhu Changqing."
"King Huai?" Mao Bijiang asked in shock. He didn't quite understand why King Hui left the person who was closer to him to help instead of helping him, and instead trusted a person who was very distant from him.
"They grew up together. Maybe they have grudges that others can't understand. This is not important to us. The important thing is that his relationship with Prince Heng is not good."
"Could it be that King Heng was also planning to build a plank road to visit Chen Cang secretly, so the two of them had a conflict?" Mao Bijiang guessed.
"That's not true. Prince Heng is very loyal to his brother. He himself has no ambitions. The reason why he came here is just because of Prince Rui. He naturally has nothing to do with Prince Hui who is always against Prince Rui.
Such a good look." Zhang Zhao found it very funny when he thought about the scornful glare between the two of them every time they faced each other on the battlefield.
"If you put it that way, the discord between these two people should be the biggest, and starting from them is indeed the best choice." Mao Pijiang looked thoughtful.
"Who do you plan to write this letter to?" Dong Fang couldn't help but asked curiously when he saw that he had a confident expression on his face.
"There is an old saying that goes, love comes from the heart. Since you have already seen that someone has turned against you, you might as well take this opportunity to add fuel to their fire and let them reveal the matter naturally.
"
A few people had been talking for a whole day without knowing it. When Mao Bijiang came over, it was just dawn, but now the sun was setting in the west. Dong Fang warmly invited them to stay for dinner. Mao Bijiang because before he came
Having already said hello to Dong Xiaowan, she no longer refused at this moment, and sat down to have a meal together openly.
