The fourteenth year of Daye, which is the first year of Wude, is in May.
In the city of Luoyang.
Wang Shichong was checking the map situation at his residence with his brows furrowed.
In the past year, the world has been in turmoil.
Last year, the Liang Kingdom's forces emerged in Jinyang, gathered in Xiaoguanzhong, and occupied Chang'an, becoming another separatist force.
Wang Shichong, who was still an important minister in the former dynasty at this time, was of course very dissatisfied with this, because everyone could see that Guanzhong was a piece of fat.
If he can occupy Chang'an again in Luoyang, use Guanzhong as his foundation, and then move east from Luoyang, the possibility of conquering the world will be greatly increased.
But there was nothing he could do, because at this time he was being beaten by Li Mi and was unable to take care of Guanzhong's affairs.
On the map, Wang Shichong's situation can be described as extremely critical.
In March of this year, Yu Wenhuaji rebelled in Jiangdu and killed the previous emperor.
When the news came, Liang Gaozu immediately accepted the Zen throne in Chang'an.
Luoyang was not idle either. Wang Shichong, Duan Da and other six people jointly elected the King of Yue as the new emperor, with the title of Huangtai and the title of Emperor Huangtai in history.
As a result, Wang Shichong was named Zheng Guogong and had a prominent status.
As for Wang Shichong, he was certainly not a loyal minister of the previous dynasty. He was just accumulating his own strength through the process of countering the rebellion of the previous dynasty.
He fought against Li Mi and was defeated repeatedly. Even if he had the desire to depose Li Mi, he did not have the guts.
At this time, the matter of usurping the throne is put aside for now, the situation on the battlefield is completely bad.
Luoyang has been surrounded by Li Mi, and the only city that Wang Shichong can really control is Luoyang.
After Yu Wenhuaji's rebels killed the late emperor, they also arrived outside Luoyang City, intending to attack Luoyang as their base.
Both forces regard Luoyang as a piece of fat.
As for Wang Shichong?
He is fat itself.
In history, Wang Shichong suffered repeated defeats against Li Mi, and was punished several times for his defeat. However, Huang Taizhu trusted him very much and always supported him. That's why Wang Shichong was able to defeat Li Mi in the final battle and eventually became the
The powerful enemy of King Qin.
But at this time, Wang Shichong could not predict the future.
Therefore, he is still extremely worried about his future and destiny.
At this moment, someone reported outside.
"Report! Wei Zheng from Wagang Village came to see him. He said that he also brought Qin Shubao and Cheng Zhijie's handwritten letters!"
Wang Shichong was stunned for a moment, then stood up suddenly: "Please come quickly!"
At this time, Wei Zheng was still a little transparent. He had been following Li Mi from the beginning, but he had never been reused.
In real history, he surrendered to the Liang Dynasty in the first year of Wude, and by the way, he deceived Li Ji, who was also under Li Mi at the time, to surrender. Then he was appointed by Liang Gaozu as Prince Xian Ma, and he has been assisting the left.
It can be said that this famous official of the Taizong Dynasty had not yet been able to show his ambition and talent at this time, but Li Mi did not know how to know people well and would not use him.
And what about Wang Shichong? In fact, he is not much better than Li Mi.
In terms of knowing people well and assigning them well, thanks to the excellent matching mechanism, the two of them are equally good at each other.
At this time, Wei Zheng was already played by Lu Hengzai.
As such a transparent person, if he came to ask to see Wang Shichong, even if he met him, it would probably be difficult to convince him.
Because it's too weightless.
Of course Lu Heng is aware of this, but as a player, he is not alone.
Huo Yunying, who played Qin Shubao, and Li Hongyun, who played Cheng Zhijie, were also working under Li Mi at this time, and their status was very prominent.
At that time, Li Mi selected 8,000 elite warriors from among his most elite soldiers to form four hussars inside the tent, named the Internal Army.
He once proudly said: These eight thousand people can equal an army of one million.
Qin Shubao and Cheng Zhijie were both among the hussar generals of the internal army, which shows that they were respected under Li Mi.
Since Wei Zheng had brought a handwritten letter from the two of them, Wang Shichong must have had to see it.
"I have met Duke Zheng."
Lu Heng, who played Wei Zheng, entered the room with his head held high, looking natural and looking like a master.
Of course Wang Shichong also acted very affectionately: "Sir, please take a seat quickly!"
After some pleasantries, Wang Shichong couldn't wait to get to the point.
"Sir, here you are, wondering what countermeasures you can teach me?"
Lu Heng smiled slightly: "I give the whole world to Mr. Zheng!"
Wang Shichong couldn't help being surprised: "Sir, please don't joke!"
Can this kind of thing be said?
Although Wang Shichong had long had the intention of usurping the throne, his character at this time was still a loyal minister of the former dynasty, and most of the power he controlled nominally belonged to the former dynasty.
To truly become emperor, it would be after he integrated the internal forces in Luoyang and eliminated dissidents.
At this time, Wei Zheng revealed the truth, and of course he was shocked.
Lu Heng laughed: "It turns out that Mr. Zheng has no ambition to conquer the world and conquer the world. In this case, I'll say goodbye."
Seeing that the other party was about to leave, Wang Shichong quickly stood up to persuade him to stay.
"Sir, wait a minute! I naturally have the ambition to sweep the world and conquer the world, but the situation at this time..."
Seeing Wang Shichong's attitude quickly softening, Lu Heng couldn't help but smile, knowing that his plan had initially succeeded.
Many times things get easier if you open the conversation.
He sat down again and said with a smile: "Mr. Zheng may feel that he is trapped in an isolated city and has no way to save himself at this time, but I know that Gong Zheng has always been a man who becomes more courageous and indomitable with every setback. This little predicament cannot defeat Gong Zheng.
"I offer three strategies for Duke Zheng, which can bring peace to the world!"
Wang Shichong couldn't help being surprised: "Oh? Sir, please speak!"
In fact, he is not too fond of such bragging.
As a warrior, he fought bloody battles on the battlefield, but after repeated attacks, only Luoyang was left alone.
It can be seen that pacifying the world is never that simple.
Now Wei Zheng can bring peace to the world just by touching his lips? Wang Shichong certainly didn't believe it.
But firstly, he knew that the other party had autographed letters from Qin Shubao and Cheng Zhijie. Although he hadn't taken them out yet, he didn't want to rush to get them now. He had better listen to what the other party had to say first. Secondly, he was really curious and wanted to know about these three people. What exactly is the content of the policy?
If what he said is wrong and has no operability at all, then maintain the most basic courtesy and ask him to bring out the autograph letters from Qin Shubao and Cheng Zhijie and let him serve as the messenger for communication between the two parties.
If you are right, wouldn't it be an unexpected surprise?
Lu Heng smiled slightly and was about to start cheating.
As a scribe player, he has done this kind of operation countless times, so he is very familiar with it at this time.
From tone to tone, from demeanor to actions, you can attract the other party's attention to the maximum extent and convince the other party from the bottom of their hearts.
What's more, what he said was the most brilliant strategy.
"This is the first strategy to eliminate Yu Wenhua and Li Mi for Zheng Gong!"
The first sentence shocked Wang Shichong.
Can Yu Wenhuaji and Li Mi be eliminated with the first move?
You must know that these two people are his serious enemies, they are all eyeing Luoyang, and both of them are very powerful.
If fighting alone, Wang Shichong has no confidence that he can defeat any of them.
Especially Li Mi, Wang Shichong fought with him and lost many battles, almost never winning.
It turns out that the first step is to kill these two powerful enemies?
Wang Shichong was instantly interested: "Sir, please speak quickly!"
Lu Heng said calmly and calmly: "This first strategy is called driving the tiger to swallow the wolf.
"At this time, Yu Wenhua and the regicide rebelled, which was not tolerated by the world.
"At this time, Duke Zheng is still a loyal minister and has established a firm position in the cause of justice.
"And there is another person who is also very eager for justice and fame. Does Zheng Gong know who he is?"
Wang Shichong thought briefly and immediately understood: "Is it Li Mi?"
Lu Heng smiled slightly: "Exactly.
"I know Li Mi best. He may be a tycoon in terms of detailed tactics, but in terms of big strategy, he is a complete mess.
“To attach great importance to false fame but not to actual benefits, to see small profits and forget the great righteousness.
"Therefore, as long as Duke Zheng uses high-ranking officials and generous salaries to win over Li Mi and lets him attack Yu Wenhuaji, he can let the two groups of rebels kill each other.
"When the time comes, I, General Cheng, and General Qin will make suggestions together, and Li Mi will definitely fall into the trap.
"When Yu Wenhuaji is defeated, Li Mi's troops will be exhausted, proud and lazy. By then, Zheng Gong's troops will be able to recharge their batteries and be ready for a decisive battle!"
Wang Shichong's eyes instantly shone: "Sir, you are a great talent! This advice made me enlightened!"
His reaction was intense and anything but perfunctory.
But this was all within Lu Heng's calculations.
Because in history, this strategy was proposed by Lu Chu and others in Yuan Wendu in Luoyang. Wang Shichong did adopt such a strategy and sent envoys to confer official positions such as Taiwei and Shangshu Ling on Li Mi to attack Yu Wenhua and others.
.
But now, Wei Zheng, played by Lu Heng, proposed this strategy first, and it naturally got into Wang Shichong's heart.
Moreover, this strategy is even more convincing when it comes from Wei Zheng's mouth.
Because Yuan Wendu proposed this strategy, Li Mi may or may not accept it. Whether the strategy will succeed is completely unknown.
But Wei Zheng's position was special, he was already in Li Mi's army.
In Wang Shichong's view, if Wei Zheng teamed up with Qin Shubao and Cheng Zhijie to deceive Li Mi, the success rate would be much higher.
Therefore, the strategy proposed by Lu Heng not only conforms to Wang Shichong's wishes, but is also very feasible.
Can Wang Shichong be unhappy?
After hearing this, Wang Shichong was convinced of Lu Heng's image as a worldly master.
"What about the other two strategies? Please give me some advice, sir!" Wang Shichong couldn't wait any longer.
Lu Heng smiled slightly and said calmly: "This second strategy is called the bitter meat strategy to help Zheng Ping and Dou Jiande!
"Yu Wenhuaji was defeated by Li Mi and was bound to flee. As for Dou Jiande, who was in Hebei, he started out in the wilderness and had no foundation, so he was bound to kill Yu Wenhua and win people's hearts.
"After Zheng Gong defeats Li Mi, he can surrender Li Mi's troops. At that time, two generals, Qin Shubao and Cheng Zhijie, and I pretend to fight hard and then escape.
"Dou Jiande knows that the two generals have a bloody feud with you, Mr. Zheng, and are extremely brave, so he will naturally put them in high regard and still let them lead the old army.
"When the two armies of Zheng Gong and Dou Jiande faced each other, the two generals suddenly led their troops to mutiny and cooperated with each other internally and externally. Although Dou Jiande had a large number of people, there was nothing to worry about!"
Wang Shichong's eyes shone even brighter: "What about the third strategy?"
Lu Heng paused for a moment, then deliberately put it off: "This third strategy is much simpler.
"It can help Zheng Ping, Liu Wuzhou, and Song Jingang enter Guanzhong, occupy the east of the river, and dominate the world!"
Wang Shichong was a little stunned: "Sir, wait a minute.
"Why do you want to pacify Liu Wuzhou when you enter Guanzhong? What about Liang Guo? And Song Jingang... isn't this person under Wei Daoer?"
This third strategy confused him because it didn't match the forces he knew.
At this time, it was the first year of Wude, and the Liang Dynasty had just been established. The entire Guanzhong and Hedong were still in the hands of the Liang Dynasty.
Liu Wuzhou was still in Mayi at this time, relying on the assistance of the Turks to capture Yanmen, Loufan and other places, and was appointed Dingyang Khan by the Turks.
It's not yet time for him to sweep across Hedong.
Song Jingang was the leader of a peasant rebel army with more than 10,000 troops. At this time, he was still linked to Wei Daoer's forces.
[By the way, the best app for reading and listening to books is Yeguo Reading, www. Install the latest version. 】
It was not until the second year of Wude that Wei Daoer was destroyed by Dou Jiande and Song Jingang was defeated by Dou Jiande, then he led 4,000 troops to defect to Liu Wuzhou.
After the two forces merged, they went south to Jinyang and collided with the forces of the Liang Dynasty.
Therefore, Wang Shichong would naturally feel strange when he heard the other party talking about Liu Wuzhou and Song Jingang together.
This is what Lu Heng wants.
He twisted his beard and smiled: "Don't be surprised, Mr. Zheng.
"Wei Daoer cannot defeat Dou Jiande, and Song Jinjiang is absolutely unwilling to succumb to Dou Jiande. Therefore, it is very likely that he will lead his troops to join Liu Wuzhou.
"And Liu Wuzhou had long wanted to go south. With Song Jingang, Yuchi Jingde and other powerful generals under his command, he could plot to seize Jinyang, sweep across Hedong, and threaten Guanzhong, the hinterland of the Liang Kingdom."
Wang Shichong was surprised and said: "Then the Liang Kingdom will be slaughtered by others?"
Lu Heng chuckled: "Liang Guo naturally will not let others control it, but they have more than enough intentions but not enough power.
"Liang Guo seems to be powerful, but in fact it is strong on the outside and weak on the inside, with no backbone at all.
"After Jinyang raised their troops, they were able to quickly invade Chang'an and occupy Guanzhong. Firstly, it was because Guanzhong was empty and there was no strong force; secondly, because they occupied great righteousness, received support from wealthy families, and knew how to win people's hearts.
.
"But among these people, none of them can really fight. The only tough battle is to destroy Song Laosheng, and winning was a fluke.
"Therefore, they cannot defeat Liu Wuzhou and Song Jingang.
"When Mr. Zheng defeats Dou Jiande, you can divide your troops into three groups.
"One road leads from the west of Luoyang into Guanzhong, and there are two roads from Hebei to Jingxing, and from Tai to Zhiguanxing, to attack Shangdang in a pinch and try to capture Jinyang.
"Even if Liu Wuzhou and Song Jingang defeated Liang Guo, their vitality would definitely be severely damaged. Taking advantage of the great victory, Zheng Gong sent out three groups of troops with absolute superiority, leaving the opponent exhausted.
"We can surely decide the world in one battle!"
After Wang Shichong heard this, he couldn't help but stood up suddenly.
"Sir's words gave me a sudden enlightenment! You are truly a god!"
He was completely convinced.
Do the strategies mentioned by Lu Heng as Wei Zheng make sense?
It makes so much sense!
Needless to say, the first strategy was that Lu Heng copied the standard answer in history, and it was a super enhanced version. It simply spoke to Wang Shichong's heart.
Compared with the first strategy, the second strategy has more original content by Lu Heng, but it is still very stable.
Wang Shichong and Li Mi were feuding, and Qin Shubao and Cheng Zhijie were both in important positions under Li Mi at this time.
If Li Mi were defeated, who would know that it was Qin Shubao and Cheng Zhijie who secretly rebelled?
As for Qin Shubao and Cheng Zhijie, they did not want to surrender to Wang Shichong and switched to Dou Jiande. Is it very reasonable?
The two of them will bring many soldiers, and in order to show their trust in them, Dou Jiande will definitely let them continue to lead his old troops to attack Wang Shichong.
At the critical moment of the battle between the two armies, Qin Shubao and Cheng Zhijie suddenly turned against each other, which would indeed turn the battlefield to Wang Shichong's side in an instant.
When the time comes, Dou Jiande will have nothing to worry about.
The third strategy is actually mainly deception.
Isn’t Liang’s power good enough?
If others don't know, how can Lu Heng not know? That's where the players gather!
In the original history, except for the King of Qin, all the people in the Liang Kingdom were really useless. Liang Gaozu, the prince, the King of Qi... it was absolutely impossible to expect them to conquer the world.
Let alone capturing two kings in one battle, they probably sent it to Xue Ju and Liu Wuzhou.
But now that these people are all occupied by players, Liang Guo has naturally become the strongest force.
The real situation is that the prince summoned heroes, Princess Pingyang gathered in Xiaoguan, used a trick to lure the enemy and killed Song Laosheng, and Yan Lide made siege equipment to easily capture the city of Chang'an.
Then, players will stage dramas such as "The King of Qi used his troops like a god", "The King of Wei defeated his cavalry with his steps", "Yuchi Jingde's mutiny" and so on.
But Lu Heng would definitely not say such a thing.
He definitely wanted to deceive Wang Shichong as much as possible, making him think that Liang Guo had nothing to worry about, and he wanted to fight with Li Mi and Dou Jiande wholeheartedly.
Then players can use Liang Guo to reap the benefits.
But Lu Heng's deception sounded very reasonable to Wang Shichong.
From Wang Shichong's perspective, without the King of Qin in the Liang Kingdom, the remaining people were indeed not very outstanding.
The only tough battle was against Song Laosheng, but this kind of character was obviously not worth mentioning in Wang Shichong's eyes, and there was nothing to brag about if he won.
More importantly, Lu Heng's predictions are both true and false, and it is difficult to distinguish.
For example, Lu Heng accurately predicted that Song Jingang, under Wei Daoer, would be defeated by Dou Jiande and then defect to Liu Wuzhou.
Then, Liu Wuzhou and Song Jingang would definitely attack Jinyang, enter Hedong, and cause friction with Liang Guo.
These are all things that really happened in history, and the predictions are extremely accurate.
It's true and false, and the false parts are all in line with Wang Shichong's expectations. It's a ghost if he can't deceive Wang Shichong.
What if this prophecy is revealed?
For example, what should Wang Shichong do when he suddenly discovers that Xue Ju and Liu Wuzhou were pushed by Liang Guoping?
Doesn’t that prove that Wei Zheng’s prediction is wrong?
It doesn't matter, because the predictions in the next two steps are actually not important.
Lu Heng offered his advice in order to make Wang Shichong trust him and follow his plan, but in fact, Wang Shichong would be captured before he could reach the second step.
This is the game within the game, and it is also the biggest advantage after players group pass.
They not only know the future historical development, but also can trust each other unconditionally despite being in different forces.
"This is the handwriting of two generals, Qin Shubao and Cheng Zhijie. I would like to ask Mr. Zheng to read it."
It was only now that Wei Zheng, played by Lu Heng, came up with two letters.
The content of the letter is not important, it is just an expression of long-standing admiration for Wang Shichong and willingness to help him conquer the world.
In fact, these two letters were not written by Huo Yunying and Li Hongyun at all. Their calligraphy skills were very average, and if they were actually written, the secrets might be exposed. Moreover, it is not worth getting a talent specifically for this kind of thing.
But it doesn't matter, Wang Shichong doesn't recognize their handwriting anyway.
Whether Wang Shichong believes it or not, it will not affect this plan.
The plan to drive away the tiger and swallow the wolf will definitely go ahead as scheduled, and Wang Shichong will definitely defeat Li Mi.
As long as when Wang Shichong beats Li Mi, Huo Yunying and Li Hongyun find a way to make a difference, stand by and watch, and then leave to defect to Dou Jiande, then Wang Shichong will believe that they are one of their own, and the trust between them will be limited.
It was established naturally.
When the time comes, Wang Shichong will step into the trap.
