In the innermost cell of Yicheng Tianlao, in front of the cell where two generals were locked up, Meng Sanshu fell into deep thought after hearing Meng Zian's question.
On the other side, Meng Caoer was shouting, "Thieves, you and other thieves, how dare you force the prefect to abdicate! Meng Jiaoyang, a thieves, how dare you defy your father and stand on your own, you thieves, a bunch of thieves!!"
Only Meng Zian still stood in the cage, with his hands behind his back, looking at the not very big but very blue sky, as if muttering to himself, "Meng Jiaoyang is not as stupid as he looks. I think you should know something about it. I grew up with him and know what a tolerant person he is. It's not easy. If you choose the second son to be the prefect, I might really have it. One day when I return to Zhaoshui City, it would be very difficult for him..., not to mention..."
Meng Zian smiled, as if he was mocking himself, but also as if he was mocking the middle-aged scholar in front of him, "What's more, you chose people like Zhao Nanpeng and Sun Miao to cooperate, then It can indeed allow you to calm down the chaos in the court caused by the change of governor in the shortest possible time, but it also leaves too many hidden dangers for subsequent events, because Zhao Nanpeng is extremely fickle and not worthy of trust at all. ....."
"Since the battle half a year ago, Yongchang County now only has four cities in the north and south," he said quietly, "Yicheng is in the middle, where the Shanshan Army is stationed, and there is also a county prefect who is personally in charge. The so-called General Yicheng Most likely he just got a name. If Lijun Chen is heavily deployed on the border, he may still have some real power. If Yongchang County is really stable externally as you said, General Yicheng will be useless. A character like Sun Miao is not young but has an old heart. , how can you be willing to live in such a position forever?"
"So, if I can't get out of the prison, Zhaoshui City will be a very useful bargaining chip in the hands of the new governor, which can get him some unexpected benefits." Meng Zian shook his head with a smile, "If I After leaving the Tianlao, Zhaoshui City has become a worry for the new governor. It is clear at a glance how to choose, so...why would he let you come to me to ask for a military strategy in southern Xinjiang? "
Meng Sanshu raised the wine bowl to his lips, but did not drink for a long time.
On the contrary, the driving man who had been standing behind him couldn't help but hesitate after hearing these words. He glanced at the more and more Tianlao soldiers who were gathering around him and seemed to be watching the excitement. He closed his sleeves with his hands and shrank his body, as if he could ejaculate at any time. Chun Chun said, "Sanshu, why don't you and I leave the prison first and come back another day?"
Meng Sanshu suddenly woke up when he heard the words of the driver. After being shaken all over, he drank a bowl of wine leisurely, "If it is true as General Meng said, even if you and I leave the prison at this moment, we will not be able to leave." We are out of this Yicheng, if General Meng’s guess is wrong, why bother to leave in a hurry?”
He pushed the wine bowl opposite him forward again, looked at Meng Zian and smiled, "General Meng, after talking so much, you still refuse to have a drink with me?"
Meng Zian took one look at the middle-aged scholar, then came to the edge of the cage and sat down. He stretched out his hand outside the iron bars to take the wine bowl, drank it all in one gulp, then let out a happy laugh and said with a smile, "Even if you try it, I drink all over the world, but my favorite is Orange Island, hahaha..."
Meng Sanshu also laughed, picked up the wine flask and filled each other's cups. The two picked up the wine bowls, touched them, and drank down each other.
At this time, Meng Cao'er in the cell on the other side stopped yelling, and instead came to the iron fence closest to Meng Zian's side, stretched out a hand and shouted, "Hey, scholar, give us a shot too?" ???????????????A bowl of wine! Scholar, that scholar?”
The driver glanced sideways at Meng Cao'er, but Meng Sanshu took another wine bowl, filled it up, and motioned for him to pass it to Meng Cao'er.
Meng Sanshu himself stopped drinking. Instead, he pushed the wine bottle to the edge of the cage and said slowly, "General Meng, Sanshu is here to discuss the military strategy of Southern Xinjiang with the general. No matter what happens next, What, no matter I live or die, and no matter whether the general can get out of the prison, I hope the general can write it out and present it to the prefect. In Yongchang County today, up and down, inside and outside, there are only What the general wrote can be really useful to Southern Xinjiang..."
Meng Zian was just drinking. When he heard this, he glanced at the middle-aged scholar, shook his head and said, "He Yucheng still has general Wang Hui, or veteran general Wang Miao, they are not incompetent."
Meng Sanshu sneered, "Wang Hui is a man who is more than brave, but lacks wisdom and scheming. He is more than rough and arrogant, but not delicate enough. If Nanyi is like the past nine hundred years, Wang Hui will not be able to make great achievements, but that's fine. But Now... it’s not possible.”
He raised his head and glanced at Meng Zian and said, "It's true that Wang Miao was once a good general. He was no stranger to southern Xinjiang. He was especially good at guarding along the river. But as he got older, he became more and more stubborn. When he guarded While the past tactics of war have not changed, Nanyi has changed. In this case, how can they win... General Meng, your article on the military strategy of Southern Xinjiang is not for anyone in the court, just think it is for someone in the court. ...The people of Yongchang County..."
Meng Zian still shook his head, "Not to mention Wang Miao, even Wang Hui is definitely not inferior to me in terms of qualifications and military exploits. When I was a general in Zhaoshui City, these two people were still polite to me because of my Meng family status. Well, now that I am a prisoner, how can I write a military strategy and make these two people obey me? With all due respect, it is impossible."
"Since General Meng also feels that the new governor is not as useless as he once seemed, this military strategy will still be of some use if presented to him. At the worst, it can also serve as a reminder to avoid southern Xinjiang from being attacked by Nanyi. You don’t even know what you are planning,” Meng Sanshu looked at Meng Zian and advised, “General Meng’s son Meng Yiliang is still in Zhaoshui City. With this article, neither the new governor nor the courtiers will touch him again... ..."
Meng Zian fell into silence. He had learned from Meng Cao'er that Wang Hui had been ordered to reorganize the southern Xinjiang army. He was not in Zhaoshui City. Even if the old troops wanted to take care of his son, they might not be able to do so. How much more could they take care of?
"Ask the Tianlao guards to prepare paper and pen for me, and I will write. But as you said, Nanyi is different from the past, and it is mysterious and unpredictable. I can only do my best to write ????????? ???????The strategies that Nanyi may use are listed for reference. The specific methods are left to the frontline generals to judge according to the changes in the current situation." Meng Zian looked at Meng Sanshu and said, "I don't need a new governor or The courtiers think of me well, I just need you to send a message to my son Meng Yiliang for me, asking him to go east from Zhaoshuicheng to Anyang County and go to Ancheng to find the young master Yan Zhuo, that's all."
Meng Sanshu looked back at the groups of soldiers not far away who were already forming up and pressing over here. Then he looked at Meng Zian and smiled and said, "It seems that General Meng guessed it right."
Meng Zian was also looking over there and said nothing.
Meng Sanshu patted the driver next to him and said warmly, "Fifth brother, you heard what General Meng just said. You should leave now and use all means to bring those words to Meng Yiliang."
The driver’s eyes widened, “I’m leaving, what will you do?!”
Meng Sanshu smiled and said, "Why, do you think the prefect wants to kill me? No, he can't live without us now. As long as you leave Yicheng, I will be safe."
The man driving the car stared around, then looked at Meng Sanshu, who was smiling. He waved his sleeves, and a small red flying sword flew out, and then turned into a fiery sword light that circled around his feet, carrying He turned into a ray of light and soared into the sky. In the blink of an eye, he hit a cloud in the sky and disappeared.
Meng Sanshu raised his head and ignored the soldiers who were approaching him. He said leisurely, "General Meng, what a pity..."
In the cage, Mencius looked at him quietly.
The scholar said to himself, "I didn't rescue you from the prison earlier... It's a pity..."
