Chapter 360 Western Ghosts, Jia Ye

The question is a bit direct.

Three images flashed through Jia Liu's mind.

The first is what Zhang Liang said when he first met Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty.

The second is what Jia Xu said when he first met Cao Cao.

The third is what Li Shanchang said when he met Zhu Yuanzhang for the first time.

Fourth, what did Fan Wencheng say when he met Huang Taiji for the first time... Forget it.

There is a picture, but unfortunately, it is still.

There is no standard answer, you can only use it yourself.

This has been the hardship of entrepreneurs since ancient times. Everything has to be explored by oneself.

First of all, raising bandits to respect themselves is definitely a false proposition and does not exist.

"Rebels, don't talk nonsense (to taint my innocence)!"

As he spoke, Jia Liu's face turned gloomy.

He hates being falsely accused the most. When the lawsuit reached the Yangxin Palace, it was because he, Prime Minister Jia Jia, could not win, or was preparing to fight, rather than refusing to fight.

The difference inside is huge.

Besides, this is the 40th year of Qianlong's reign in the Qing Dynasty, not the 10th year of Chongzhen's reign in the previous Ming Dynasty. If we can support the bandits, why should we worry about ourselves?

"Is it?"

Fan Wei put up his long hair and looked at the young Prime Minister and Military Affairs Minister of the Qing Dynasty in front of him, who had no fear on his face. Instead, he laughed: "That's right. Your Excellency has transported grain to me three times, but I have never transported a single grain into the city. That's right."

Not to mention raising bandits, this ever-victorious army is also the stupidest rebel army in history, so the pearl of your hard work has been cast aside secretly."

After all, he is an understanding person!

Jia Liu was moved in his heart and snorted coldly: "Don't say it's useless. Now that you are in my hands, just tell me whether you want to die or live."

"The people are not afraid of death, so why should they be afraid of death? Does the Prime Minister look like you are afraid of death?"

After Fan Wei finished speaking, he patted his stomach and said, "Is there anything to eat? The Yan brothers lied to me and said they were drinking wine, but the wine was not even served yet.

I’m so flustered that even talking is very tiring.”

"."

Helpless, Jia Liu ordered the soldiers outside to get a pot of wine and a white chicken.

As the Prime Minister and Minister of Military Affairs of Shandong, there is no shortage of food and wine in the camp.

After a while, the wine and meat were served.

Fan Wei was already familiar with it, so he sat down, first picked up the wine bottle and poured half of it into his mouth, then he hugged the chicken and started to eat it.

The look of him gobbling up his food made Jia Liu beside him stunned. There was no way he looked like a military strategist in this look.

I thought to myself, don’t make a mistake and pay for the wine and the chicken.

Fan Wei quickly gnawed all the chicken and drank the entire bottle of wine.

Taking a long breath, Fan Wei suddenly gave a wry smile, sighed, and then said: "If you have anything to ask, Prime Minister, I feel free to ask, but if you let Fan know, I will definitely tell you."

This cooperative attitude made Jia Liu stunned: "Don't you insist on persisting?"

"Hold on to what?"

Fan Wei had a funny look on his face, "I am destined to die. Rather than being tortured by you before my death, it would be better for me to be happy. Besides, Wang Lun is not a wise master. If he doesn't listen to me, he will lead to his own destruction, and he still treats me like this."

My life is on the line, so what reason do I have to be loyal to him?"

He pointed at the pile of chicken bones on the table and said, "If you eat your food, you have to say something to your parents. Otherwise, it would be too heartless and things would have happened earlier. It is not a bad thing for the people of Shandong."

Jia Liu felt relieved: "How can you think that I am very happy that Linqing City has no food supply?"

Fan Wei shook his head: "We haven't run out of food. We can still survive for two months, but there will be days when we won't be able to eat meat."

Jia Liu nodded. Linqing is an important canal town and a large tax city. It is a consumption-oriented city that absorbs surrounding areas. All fruits, vegetables, meat and food are shipped in from outside the city.

Now that the Qing army has been besieging the city for nearly two months, it is understandable that there is food in the city, but where can we get meat and vegetables?

It is estimated that all the dogs and cats in the city will be eaten by now.

"I'm confused, please tell me sir."

Fan Wei cooperated, and Jia Liu was also polite and asked Shuan Zhu to serve this guy tea.

"Please say."

Fan Wei picked up the vegetable bowl with a calm look on his face.

"It is said that Mr. Wang Ni proposed two strategies to advance north and south. Why did Wang Ni fail to adopt both strategies, and instead stayed in Linqing, willing to die?"

This question has been lingering in Jia Liu's mind. He really doesn't understand why there are so many people in the world who are stupider than himself.

Fan Wei blew in and took a sip. He closed his eyes and savored the aroma of the tea. After taking a few breaths, he opened his eyes and said, "Sir, do you know why Wang Lun was in trouble?"

"Sir, please elaborate."

Inadvertently, Corporal Jia Liulixian's appearance emerged.

Fan Wei said: "It's all because of one hexagram."

Jia Liu hurriedly asked: "What hexagram?"

"There will be a calamity this year, but you can avoid it if you follow my path!"

"What's the meaning?"

Jia Liu was puzzled.

Fan Wei said: "Wang Lun made a divination before he started the uprising. The hexagrams said that this year would be the year of great calamity for the Qing Dynasty. There would be ferocious soldiers in the west. Therefore, if he started the uprising in the east, he would be able to create a situation in which the east and west echoed each other. Then he would be able to do it in one fell swoop.

And destroy the Qing Dynasty."

After hearing this, Yang Zhi and Deb, who were standing by the side, looked at each other with disbelief in their eyes.

Jia Liu was also a little confused. The theory of divination originated from the "Book of Changes". This thing was said to be passed down from the ancestors, but generally the theory of divination was classified as feudal superstition, that is, a trick to deceive people.

However, according to Fan Wei, divination is quite scientific, right?

The vicious soldier really appears!

I still remember that when he led the guerrilla flagmen to swear an oath out of Beijing, his wife Ruxiu also asked someone to do a fortune-telling for him. The fortune-telling said that Jia Jia Shikai would be a general who would achieve great success with ten thousand bones.

Combined with his great cause of driving out the Eight Banners of Manchu and Mongolia, do you dare to say that this hexagram does not work?

It seems that if you have to believe in science, you also have to believe in God.

Anyway, you can't suffer any loss.

Jia Liu decided to ask Shuan Zhu to ask Monk Wang for some talismans tomorrow to calm down the Ah Piaos behind him. He has been a little unlucky recently. Maybe the Ah Piaos are secretly working to extinguish his Three Flavors True Fire.

"Could this fierce soldier from the west be the ghost family you mentioned? According to Jiang Jiang's confession, your Changsheng Army sent people to the capital to inquire about the situation and collude with this ghost family. Is this possible?"

"Yes, this is indeed the case."

Fan Wei was very straightforward and said that the person sent to contact the Gui family was named Guitai.

"What kind of power is the Gui Family?"

The governor of Shandong, Guotai, had said that the ghost family was the name of the Qingshui Sect against the Jinchuan bandits, but Jia Liu still wanted to verify it.

The answer Fan Wei gave was consistent with what Cathay said. This ghost family was their name for the rebels in Jinchuan and Jinchuan in the west.

The reason is that they believe that the rebels are all Fan people, and the Fan people are ghosts.

After pondering for a moment, Jia Liu said: "There are indeed big and small Jinchuan thieves in Sichuan who are rebelling against our Qing Dynasty. However, since your sect has calculated that there are ghosts who are rebelling against our Qing Dynasty, which is called a disaster, then why does Wang Ni not accept Mr.'s plan to go north or south?

, echoing the ghost family from afar, making our officers and soldiers exhausted from running for their lives, focusing on one thing and not the other, thus creating a situation in response to that hexagram, but sitting in Linqing and bringing about their own defeat?"

"well,"

Fan Wei sighed again, "Wang Lun is stupid and thinks that he only needs to stick to Linqing to contain the government and the army, so that the ghosts in the west will clash with all their strength. Then a turning point will surely occur. Little does he know that only through mobility can things be achieved. If it really succeeds, it will be the ghosts, and it will fail because of the ghosts."

"Foolish beyond measure,"

Jia Liu shook his head, and when he was about to say something, Shuan Zhu's voice came to his ears.

"Mr. Fan, perhaps the ghost family in the West does not refer to the Jinchuan and Xiaojinchuan, but to my family."

Yang Zhi stepped forward lightly, dipped his hand into the tea in the bowl in front of Fan Wei, and wrote a big word "Jia" on the table.

"The word Jia is a false one, and the false one is a ghost. The word Jia goes up to the west and goes down to the bottom. Isn't this what Western ghosts say?"

After saying that, he looked at the young master: "Really?"

Jia Liu was confused by this explanation: Shouldn't I be a Western treasure? How could I become a ghost?

A sudden excitement.

He seems to be a real ghost.

He was nicknamed Guiziliu when he was a child.

It is a historical fact that Qingshui teaches divination about ghosts in the West, and this book should be a coincidence.
