"Why?"
Zhao Ping asked with a gloomy face, "Aren't you afraid of death?"
"I used to be afraid."
A Dajian sighed: "But I'm not afraid now."
"Why again?"
"Because my husband promised our family that even if our family dies, he will take care of our fellow villagers and help our family repay his kindness."
A Dajian said with a smile: "And our family also told our husband the good strategies for governing the country."
"There are no worries. Even if I die, I will have no regrets."
boom!
Zhao Ping kicked him over and knocked Adajian to the ground.
This made Ah Dajian look confused.
"Die, die, die, die what?"
Zhao Ping said angrily: "You have shown your talent in front of me, but you haven't really used it yet, and you are going to die. What do you think I am?"
"Just a witness to your talent?"
"But I have an important responsibility now."
A Dajian said: "The king of Yuzhou has rebelled. Your Majesty is in trouble. If our family won't go, who are you going to send?"
"Our family has always said that Mr. Zhao loves his people like his own son and cherishes the lives of his men very much. Are you willing to send them to die?"
"I……"
Zhao Ping was asked.
He really couldn't bear it.
In the Donghai County Sheriff's Mansion, when discussing with the prefect Chen Xinghe, Chen Jiu proposed sending messages through multiple channels.
Zhao Ping didn't answer.
The capital of Yuzhou has rebelled and has summoned bandits. Will it be easy for the letter to be delivered to Jincheng?
I'm afraid they have already sent people to ambush on the road to intercept and kill the messenger.
So at that time, Zhao Ping only suggested that Li He go. After all, Li He was an eunuch of the palace, not from Xiping Village. If he died, he would die. Zhao Ping was not worried.
After returning to Xiping Village, he did not mention sending someone to deliver the message.
Instead, he personally led a team to rush to Yuzhou to rescue him.
It was only when he met Shen Bao on the way that he suddenly decided to let Shen Bao and the others lurk next to the King of Yuzhou, waiting for a surprise victory.
A Dajian continued: "And if you send someone to deliver a message, there is a high probability that the letter will not be delivered to His Majesty."
"The commander of the army, Master Ma, just said that the King of Yuzhou is an ignorant and incompetent person, and he definitely does not have the courage to rebel."
"It can be seen that there must be an expert behind him."
"This expert is definitely a resourceful person."
"Why do you say that?"
Zhao Ping said unexpectedly.
He really didn't expect this.
After all, he had never dealt with the King of Yuzhou, and he didn't know what the King of Yuzhou was like.
All I know is that he is His Majesty’s biological brother and a compatriot.
Chen Xuan can be the emperor, and so can Chen Tong.
What's more, Chen Xuan has no children. Who will he pass the throne to after a hundred years?
It is understandable that Chen Tong would fight for it.
While your majesty is going to Yuzhou to suppress the bandits, kill him and proclaim himself emperor.
There is nothing clever about this strategy at all.
"The first thing is timing."
A Dajian said: "As far as our family knows, there are two groups of troops in Chang'an. One is the Royal Palace Guards with a strength of 10,000 people, and the other is the city defenders of Chang'an with a strength of 20,000 people."
"But the two men are there to protect the safety of Chang'an. They are the top priority of the Dawei Dynasty and must not be touched lightly."
"Your Majesty is only suppressing bandits and will certainly not mobilize them."
"But His Majesty brought fifty thousand soldiers and horses."
"When our family left the palace, we didn't hear about this incident, so His Majesty's personal expedition to suppress the bandits happened after our family left."
"It is impossible to gather 50,000 troops in such a short period of time."
"If our guess is correct, His Majesty has two types of troops. On the one hand, they are the garrison troops in Yongzhou, and on the other hand, they are temporarily recruited homeless beggars, etc."
"As for the troops stationed in Yongzhou, to be honest, they don't have much combat effectiveness."
"After all, the imperial city is in Yongzhou. They have no chance to go to the battlefield at all, but they are given a lot of salary and so on, so many ministers of the DPRK and the Central Government stuff their own families in it."
"So the actual combat power of the 50,000 troops and horses led by His Majesty is probably very poor."
"The King of Yuzhou rebelled at this time. It can be said that the timing is very right."
"It shows the intelligence of the people behind him."
"How did you know this?"
Zhao Ping asked.
You know, since A Dajian came to Qingzhou, he has been placed under house arrest by Chen Xinghe in the state capital.
Never been out.
However, Zhao Ping was impressed by his ability to analyze so much content.
A real talent.
Fortunately, he was not an enemy. Otherwise, if he faced such a person, it was hard to say whether Zhao Ping could be his opponent, even if he was a time traveler.
"Guess."
A Dajian said: "We are just a small eunuch, and we have no access to these things, so we can only rely on guessing."
"You rock."
Zhao Ping gave a thumbs up and said: "Go on."
"What's next?"
"Secondly, summon the bandits in Yuzhou."
A Dajian said: "Your Majesty is suppressing bandits. Although the 50,000 soldiers he carries are weak in combat effectiveness, there are so many people that the bandits cannot deal with them."
"So they only have two options, one is to flee, the other is to die."
"In this case, the King of Yuzhou said that he has provided them with a third option, and this option may even be successful."
"Once successful, they will become ministers of the dragon."
"Even if you can't be awarded an official title afterwards, there is absolutely no problem in restoring your good status."
"If you rely on your merits and exchange for some money, food, land, beautiful women, etc., wouldn't you be happy and carefree for the rest of your life?"
"It's much better than them being bandits. Everyone is willing to give it a try."
"These two points are enough to show that there are experts around the King of Yuzhou."
"Such a person, since he has chosen to rebel, will definitely be fully prepared."
"If our estimate is good, there will definitely be a lot of ambushes in Yuzhou at this moment, especially near Qingzhou, to intercept those sent by Qingzhou to deliver the message."
"If you put it this way, will the King of Yuzhou know that we are adopting a two-sided attack strategy?"
Zhao Ping said unexpectedly.
"hehe."
A Dajian sneered, "Even a young eunuch in our palace can guess it, let alone the King of Yuzhou."
Zhao Ping blushed.
If someone guessed it, then this strategy wouldn't be of much use.
But I am not good at fighting.
Although I have read "Thirty-six Strategies" and "Sun Tzu's Art of War", and even watched many ancient war movies, I have no practical experience and cannot use it at all.
We can only ask A Dajian.
But someone is faster than him.
It's Shadow One.
bass!
She took out the soft sword wrapped around her waist and placed it on A Dajian's neck.
"Tell me, how can I save His Majesty?"
Ying Yi asked coldly.
A Dajian did not show any fear. On the contrary, he glanced at Yingyi indifferently.
Then he looked at Zhao Ping and asked, "Who is she?"
"Shadow One."
Zhao Ping said.
"We are one of our own, so just answer whatever she asks."
Shadow one?
A Dajian chewed the name for a moment, then blurted out: "You are the emperor..."
Before he finished speaking, he saw Ying Yi's murderous gaze and stopped abruptly.
Cold sweat broke out all over his body.
He had heard that there were shadow guards around His Majesty, they were mysterious and very few people could see them.
But all of them have extraordinary strength, and they are all masters among masters.
But why would such a person appear next to Mr. Zhao?
Could it be that His Majesty sent him here to protect Mr. Zhao?
Then Mr. Zhao is...?
Can't think deeply.
But this made A Dajian more determined in his goal and followed Zhao Ping.
Maybe a hundred years from now, Your Majesty, the throne will fall to Zhao Ping, and he still has hope to use his talents to govern the entire Dawei Dynasty.
Just thinking about it made Ah Dajian a little excited.
"Say what you think carefully, and don't talk nonsense about anything else."
Zhao Ping also reminded hurriedly.
"yes."
A Dajian nodded respectfully, "It's actually easy to deal with the King of Yuzhou."
"The main problem is not the reinforcements, but His Majesty himself."
"If your Majesty can think of the rebellion of the King of Yuzhou and make preparations in advance, everything will be fine."
"If His Majesty fails to think of it and successfully enters Yuzhou and meets the King of Yuzhou, that will be the real crisis."
"Why do you say that?"
Ying Yi asked.
"Your Majesty has 50,000 soldiers. Although his combat strength may be weaker, he still has so many people."
A Dajian analyzed: "And what about Yuzhou?"
"Even if the bandits are gathered together, there won't be many soldiers at all. I'm afraid it will only be about 50,000."
"The two are equally powerful in battle. Even if His Majesty cannot defeat the King of Yuzhou, he can still hold his position and wait for reinforcements to arrive."
"What I'm most afraid of right now is that your Majesty doesn't know about the rebellion of the King of Yuzhou."
"After entering Yuzhou, he worked with the king of Yuzhou to suppress the bandits, and then he took the opportunity to be killed or severely injured by the king of Yuzhou."
"At that point, even if reinforcements arrive, it will not help."
This coincides with what Guan Yongning said, and once again proves A Dajian's talent.
Ying Yi was anxious, "Zhao Ping, let's not rest anymore. Go to Jincheng as soon as possible and tell His Majesty about the rebellion of the King of Yuzhou, so that he can prepare in advance."
"You can not."
Unexpectedly, A Dajian shook his head.
"Why?"
"Didn't I say before that there are experts around the King of Yuzhou. They are worried that Qingzhou will send reinforcements to Yuzhou and there must be an ambush."
"If you go there, you will be discovered easily."
"Even if I can't kill you, I can still intercept you for a few days without any problem."
"What should we do?"
Ying Yi became even more anxious.
"Isn't this our home?"
A Dajian said with a smile: "We will go in your place."
"You can?"
Ying Yi asked curiously: "Aren't they going to intercept you?"
