Li You picked up the tea cup with a calm expression, and did not hide the thoughts on his face. However, he knew very well that when Bangalo saw his face, what he thought of was definitely a completely different concept from what he himself thought. It’s good for the other party to see it.
"Whether the army can be repelled is one thing. What the general wants to ask for is the important thing." Li You said calmly to Bangalo, as if he had figured something out.
"Now there is an opportunity. The Chola Dynasty has admired the Han Dynasty for a long time and is willing to become a vassal of the Han Dynasty." Bangalo looked excited, while Li You nodded silently, as if he was very satisfied. In fact, After Bang Jialuo spoke, Li You had eliminated most of the speculations, leaving only two possibilities, but no matter which one they were, it was an opportunity for Li You.
"The tributary relationship is the highest expression of alliance, but this kind of thing is not something I can agree to. Your Majesty must make the decision." Li You had an official tone, but in Bangalo's view, Li You was actually moved. However, As the old saying goes, it would be a damn thing if Bangalo could guess what Li You was thinking.
"With the general's promise, that's all." Bangalo looked excited, "With the general's promise, I, Chola, will have no worries."
Bangalo vaguely revealed that he was seeking a tributary relationship with his vassal country. In fact, he did not have any superfluous ideas, but just hoped to preserve his country.
Li You nodded noncommittally, as if he had agreed to the matter. In fact, Bangalo knew very well that what Li You was doing now was normal. He was just procrastinating. But just accept it, because there is a great thing coming next. The Han Dynasty could not let go of the opportunity.
[It’s basically confirmed that Meng Combo must have plotted against the other party’s leader. If you think about it this way, you can understand why Meng Combo didn’t retreat at the beginning. I don’t know if he killed him or, no, it was impossible to kill him. , in the current situation, house arrest is more valuable than killing. 】Li You's mind was spinning, and he directly guessed the conclusion based on the different narratives of the two parties.
After knowing this matter, Li You no longer had the slightest worry. The following things were all routine matters. He almost knew how Meng Kangbu would respond, and there was still time. Li You knew it in his heart. The idea of stalling for time.
Bangalo didn't have anything to worry about when he saw Li You dragging the proposal of a vassal state. He didn't come here to become a vassal. All he did was to take the hand of the Han Dynasty and turn passive into active, and successfully took back Karikala. , so what needs to be done now is to let the Han Dynasty feel the sincerity of the Chola Dynasty and pave the way for the next return to the country.
After Li You deduced the situation of Karikala, he was absolutely sure of the entire situation, so he naturally pretended to be half-convinced when facing Bangalo.
However, the banquet was still very enjoyable. In the evening, Bangalo left with his personal guards. Only at this time did Huang Zhong, who had been acting as a guard, have time to ask Li You.
"I know you don't understand why I acted so rough before." After Li You sent Bangalo away, he looked at Huang Zhong who looked suspicious and said. Huang Zhong quickly said he didn't dare.
"Karikala was probably detained by Mengkangbu." Li Youping sat on the seat with his hands, "Bangaro did not come to ask for an alliance, but to ask for help. It's just that the current situation directly calls for help. Everything they planned before They will all be ruined, that’s why today is happening.”
Huang Zhong raised his eyebrows and looked at Li You in confusion, not understanding what he meant.
"Mengkhambu has probably controlled the soldiers of the Chola Dynasty. Let's put it this way, internal plunder is unlikely for our soldiers, but it can be said to be commonplace for soldiers from other countries." Li You sneered. Then he said, "Meng Kangbu relies on military orders to restrain him, and relies on beheading and capturing as rewards. If he is allowed to plunder, it will not be a problem to completely control the morale of the army."
Huang Zhong raised his eyebrows but didn't say anything. Both Liu Bei and Chen Xi were people with extremely high moral standards. Needless to say, Chen Xi himself lived in a different era and couldn't do such things as plundering. Many times, Constrain the morals of soldiers.
As for Liu Bei, let alone that. Before New China, Liu Bei was the only founding monarch who did not massacre cities or engage in plunder, and also restrained his generals not to do such things. His moral level was far beyond the the universal morality of the time.
Therefore, after Liu Bei and Chen Xi got together, more destructive methods such as plundering, massacring cities, breaking dykes and releasing water were all banned. The moral level of the entire country was also improved, so that when it comes to massacring cities, looting This kind of thing feels like it has become a thing of the past era.
"How did Mengkhambu gain military power? I heard before that Karikala had more soldiers than Mengkhambhu, and Karikala led the Chola dynasty's Janissaries, who were also dual-talented, plus tens of thousands It's not that easy for a true soldier." Huang Zhong didn't mention what happened next. According to Li You, if Meng Kangbu commanded the army to do this, it would indeed not be difficult, but how did he get it.
"Mengkhambu is the commander of the army. The military orders were unified by Mengkhamb from the beginning. What happened next is probably that Mengkhamb gave the backbone of the Cholas to us to kill. Maybe we will cooperate with Kushan at that time. It's super good." Li You said coldly, and Huang Zhong felt a chill in his heart.
Huang Zhong had met Mengkangbu before. He was very young, about thirty years old. When he used Changshui to ambush him before, Huang Zhong only felt disgusted with him. He had known that the other party was the commander of a large army, but Huang Zhong was completely dissatisfied. Mind carrying out shameless assassinations.
"In such an unreasonable situation, I think it is normal for the Chola dynasty to fall. If nothing else happens, Mengkhambu will probably strengthen his orders again and go to the Chola dynasty. This time he will probably hold the The idea of completely destroying the Chola Dynasty." Li You said with a calm expression.
"Destroy the Chola Dynasty?" Huang Zhong raised his eyebrows, inexplicably feeling that Mengkhambu's murderous nature was a bit serious, and he wouldn't be able to do it to this extent.
"After all, this is a war of empires. If I were in the position of Mengkhambu, I would be more aggressive. I would not even wait for a while. There is no need to organize the army. I would directly land on the edge of the Chola Dynasty and go there. Form an army of servants and loot the Chola dynasty." Li You said with a sneer.
Huang Zhong's eyes flashed with a cold look, which he couldn't agree with.
"This kind of thing is not suitable for upright people like us, but it doesn't matter. When the time comes, there will definitely be people who take the initiative to do dirty work, eat pots of milk, and take the initiative to be dogs. There will not be a few people. Sometimes only It only takes a look, and someone will understand what you mean, and those people will kill more ruthlessly than us." Li You glanced at Huang Zhong, even if the other person had restrained his coldness before, Li You was considered to have left the battlefield. How can you not feel the characters who have experienced several experiences?
If it were an ordinary person, Li You wouldn't be able to explain at all. He could think whatever he wanted, but Huang Zhong was different. Huang Zhong was very stable and easy to use.
"..." Huang Zhong nodded silently after hearing this, and he also knew this fact.
"Use those people, and then kill those people." A flash of coldness flashed in Li You's eyes. Some people must take the blame, and the best solution is to kill. The dead cannot speak.
"Bangaro probably also guessed that Mongkhambu would go to Chola. From this aspect, Karikala should have discovered something before he was placed under house arrest, but he was unable to recover. By the way, from this aspect, If so, Karikala trusts Bangalo very much." Li You said slowly, "So, the next goal is to kill one of them."
"Who to kill?" Huang Zhong asked cautiously. At this time, he had already understood the logic behind it. Li You was going to completely conquer the entire Chola Dynasty.
"Go to the Chola Dynasty and wait for Meng Kambu to appear. Kill Meng Kambu first!" Li You said solemnly, "Kill Meng Kambu as much as possible, and then Bangalo and Karikala..."
"Carikala is easy to kill. When the situation reaches that point, we don't even need to cause accidental damage. Mengcomb may kill Carikala. After all, if exposed, Carikala will be useless." Huang Zhong thought for a moment and said Got it.
"No, what we want to kill is Bangalo!" Li You said with a sneer.
Huang Zhong was stunned when he heard this, and then nodded slowly. He already understood what Li You meant.
"Don't worry, Bangalo is a smart man, and since he values Kalikala and the Chola dynasty so much, he naturally knows what to say and what not to say at that time. What's more, don't you think Bangalo is too strong? "?" Li You turned his head and looked at Huang Zhong and said.
Li You doesn't like others plotting against him. Once he finds someone who can plot against him, he will kill the enemy without saying a word and do his best to kill him. But Bangalo has actually plotted against Li You. As long as Li You still has ideas, he will The Chola dynasty must be saved.
Maybe Li You saved the Chola dynasty this time, and the Chola dynasty will still be in trouble in the future. But from the wisdom shown in Bangalo's previous conversation, Li You knows very well that as long as this guy is alive, he will control it. The constraints of the Chola dynasty.
In this case, it is better to die. In exchange, Li You will save this country and control it in his own hands. Since Bangalo has such enthusiasm for this country, then let him fall with this country.
"Won't Bangalo notice?" Huang Zhong suddenly asked, "Since the other party can be valued by you, you can't not see this."
"As the saying goes, one cannot see the mountain with a blind eye. That's it. Do you think you are more important in Bangalo's heart, is Kalikala more important, or is the Chola dynasty more important?" Li You suddenly asked.
Huang Zhong said silently that Kalikala was important, so Bangalo's thoughts were on Kalikala now, and the Chola dynasty was important, so he couldn't say anything when the Han Dynasty sent him to die.
