Chapter 623 (1/2)
Shi Tao said, ”gentlemen, in the past, the three schools were divided into Jin Dynasty, and the state of Wei took the lead in carrying out political reform. Marquis Wen of Wei appointed Li Kai to govern the government and Wu Qi to train troops. The state of Wei was the hegemony, and all the central Plains countries were convinced. But not a few years later, the state of Wei declined and fell into a slump. Why? ”
”Emperor Xiaogong of Qin made the state of Qin rich and powerful by the reform of Shang Yang. The king of Shang defeated Prince ang and forced the state of Wei to move its capital to Daliang. The rise of Qin and the decline of Wei. ” A student with a moustache on his lips and bright eyes suddenly said.
Shi Tao nodded with a smile: ”what Zhou Ping said is good, but there are other reasons.”
What he called ”Zhouping” was Cui Jun, the son of situ cuilie, and expressed the word Zhouping.
Cui Jun continued: ”the other reason is that the state of Wei is located in the Central Plains, the four Warring States. When the state of Qin regained Hexi, Pang Juan led his army to fight with Qi army and was defeated by Sun Bin.”
”Well, let's go into it!” Shi Tao praised him and then said, ”it's true that Zhou Ping just said that Wei took the lead in the reform. The country was rich and the people were strong. One of the reasons why it became weak was that it was located in the Central Plains, and the territory of the surrounding countries was intertwined with Wei, just like wolves. Even if Wei was like a tiger, how could it last for a long time?”
”And the general's current situation is the same.” Shi Tao analyzed: ”the general was previously in Guanzhong. Holding the army in hand seemed to strengthen the Qin Dynasty and look down on the world in the East. However, when he left the Central Plains, he bordered on numerous princes, which was naturally unfavorable. In addition to Cao mengde and Zhou mu, the little overlord sun CE swept the six counties of Jiangdong, and his troops were so powerful that he did not want to go northward to fight for the central plains all the time. Gongsun Du, the general of Liaodong, was just like King Xiang dealing with the armies of Gaozu, Huaiyin Marquis and Liang Wang
”Gentlemen.” Shi Tao said solemnly, ”any one of the three is inferior if he is careless, but the general has three. What's more, now that the Liangzhou army has stormed Yecheng for more than a month, it is afraid that the Liangzhou army will be exhausted
”Yes, yes, my husband's courage is also strong. The Wuhuan people are full of vigour, while the Liangzhou soldiers have already tempered their spirit in Yecheng. In this war, the general is in danger. The imperial court... Alas!” Cuijun could not help sighing and his face sank. He is the son of situ of the former dynasty, loyal and righteous. Now Liu Ye, as a general, is the Prime Minister of the imperial court. If he is defeated, the consequences will be unimaginable.
”Well, not necessarily.” Meng Jian suddenly said with a smile.
Cui Jun looked at Meng Jian in a hurry: ”Gongwei, what's your opinion? Tell me quickly.”
”Yes, brother Gongwei, brother Guangyuan's views can be said to the point. I'd like to teach you how to admire him. If you have any ideas, you may as well tell them.”
After listening to Shi Tao's opinions, Lu men's students were overjoyed. Hearing Meng Jian's refutation, they opened their eyes to Meng Jian to hear what he had.
”I have a word for you to listen to.” Meng Jianji graciously saluted the people and said in a loud voice: ”as we all know, generals have always been good at defeating many with less. Linzi defeated Xu He, Chang she defeated Zhang Mancheng and BOCAI, Tianshui defeated 100000 Qiang soldiers, all the way to attack the strong with weakness, but the army fought more and more. How can a general be afraid of 30000 people against 100000 people
Seeing everyone nodding in succession, Meng Jian continued: ”in addition, the general sent Xu Huang and Ma Chao to defeat the Youzhou army. As a result, the morale of the Liangzhou army was greatly improved. Therefore, although the siege of Yecheng was not successful for a long time, the Liangzhou army was still in high morale and could be worthy of a war.”
”What's more, marquis Wen still has troops in Bingzhou, which can be used as a support for the general. If the generals operate properly, the battle may not be won!” Meng Jian's voice suddenly increased by an octave, showing his strong self-confidence in Liu Ye.
”So good, so good.” Cui County hears the speech is facial expression a joy, afterward relaxed a breath.
