Chapter 474 A good plan
When Gan Fanren received the peace letter, he felt that Concubine Zhang was indeed the champion of palace fighting.
She had a good plan.
"This Concubine Zhang has plotted against us so hard."
If her peace letter had come earlier, many people would have died.
Now Concubine Zhang only has two or three cities left. It only takes a thought to break through.
In the court, Gan Fanren asked everyone for their opinions.
Wen Yifan said calmly: "I come from the countryside and I know the sufferings of the people. If a war breaks out, many civilians will suffer and many soldiers will die on the battlefield."
"However, your kindness will leave hidden dangers for future generations. Concubine Zhang and the remnants of Dayun have always been watching us in secret. Once we have internal troubles, they will surely attack."
"I think it is better to suffer a short pain than a long one. We should fight to the end and kill them all."
Some military generals disagreed with Wen Yifan's idea: "You scholars don't know what war means. Fighting a war costs a lot of food and money. Our Dashun treasury is empty and it may be difficult to support such a large amount of money."
"Besides, people will die in war. Those are human lives. How can we make a decision casually?"
"Your Majesty, I think that Dashun's treasury is not full now, and the soldiers are tired. They should rest and recuperate. They can obviously seek peace and there is no need to fight to the death." Those who
advocated war and those who sought peace had different opinions on the keyboard, and the court was in chaos.
Only Tang Shi remained silent.
It was unreasonable for Tang Shi, the god of war of Dashun, to remain silent at this time.
Gan Fanren looked at Tang Shi: "General Tang, what do you think?"
Tang Shi cupped his hands and said: "I am not in favor of war, nor am I in favor of peace."
As soon as Tang Shi said this, there was a burst of noise in the court.
"What do you mean by neither advocating war nor peace?"
"Aren't there only these two solutions to this problem?"
"Could it be that General Tang has a problem with his brain because of Song Ci's death?"
"Tsk tsk tsk, I didn't expect General Tang to have a problem with his brain at such a young age."
The ministers in the court kept talking.
As a former half-military general, Gongsun Yue had a lot of dealings with Tang Shi, and he naturally knew that Tang Shi would not say such words casually.
There must be a deep meaning in this.
Gongsun Yue cleared his throat: "Instead of whispering, why not ask General Tang directly what the deep meaning is."
The court was silent for a moment.
Yes, Tang Shi is here, why not just ask directly.
Wen Yifan thought: "What does General Tang mean?"
"I mean, kill Concubine Zhang and his lackeys."
"Anyway, the emperor of Dayun did the same to us, didn't he?"
That time, the tyrant emperor of Dayun sent Zhou Bufan to assassinate them.
If she hadn't been a skilled martial artist, she would have died long ago.
Although this trick is despicable, it is the simplest and most effective way to defeat the enemy, isn't it?
"Those people of Concubine Zhang are just a mob. I have observed them carefully. Those soldiers are pale and thin, with weak limbs. You can tell at a glance that they don't live well on a daily basis."
"As long as we kill the people of Concubine Zhang's faction, and then march to the city, besiege those cities, and let the soldiers barbecue around the city gates day and night, they will naturally surrender."
This method is indeed a good method.
Gan Fanren nodded: "The method is indeed good, but it is not easy to penetrate the enemy and kill the opponent's lord."
"In the past, Zhou Bufan, as the leader of the Feiluan Army, was extraordinary and a top master, but he failed. We may not succeed either."
Tang Shi knelt on the ground and asked Gan Fanren for orders.
"Your servant Tang Shi requests permission to go deep into the enemy camp and strangle the enemy leader."
She wants to personally avenge Song Ci.
Gan Fanren frowned: "General Tang's injuries have not yet fully healed, so he is not suitable for fighting. We need to send someone else."
"Actually, I have a suitable candidate."
Gan Fanren looked at the memorial on the case and said lightly: "Li Zhi is the most suitable person."
"He has a lot of strength. If there is no one to hold him back, he will definitely kill his way out."
Li Zhi is now different from the past.
Although he lacks strategy, he is more stable.
And Li Zhi also has a lot of hatred in his heart, so he will definitely complete this task.
"Your Majesty, although General Li Zhi is brave and good at fighting, he is also injured and may not be able to come back alive."
"I promise you that I will bring back Concubine Zhang's head with my own hands."
The hatred in Tang Shi's eyes gave Gan Fanren a headache.
It was not wise to let Tang Shi go.
"I'll think about it."
After the court, Gan Fanren called Wen Yifan and Gongsun Yue to Yu's study.
"If you let General Tang go, I'm afraid he will never come back. If something happens to General Tang, it will bring turmoil to Dashun." "
But if you don't let General Tang go, I'm afraid he will feel resentful, and the monarch and his subjects will be at odds."
Among all his ministers, Tang Shi is the one who makes him least worried.
Smart, self-disciplined, and extremely stable.
Unexpectedly, he was holding back a big one.
In the court, Gongsun Yue and Gan Fanren maintained the etiquette of monarch and minister, but in private, they put aside many things.
He held the tea, blew it gently, and said slowly: "My elder brother also said that if we don't let General Tang go, I'm afraid the monarch and minister will be alienated."
"In this case, what is there to hesitate about?"
"If she goes, maybe she can come back alive. If she is not allowed to go, maybe we will really lose General Tang."
Wen Yifan was not in good health to begin with, and the weather has changed a lot in the past few days. He coughed a few times out of discomfort.
"The military strength of Concubine Zhang is far inferior to ours, but she dares to go to war with us. It's really strange."
"So, I secretly inquired and learned that all is not well with Concubine Zhang. After her subordinates followed her, they felt that they were suppressed by the woman and had many complaints. Some even secretly wanted to overthrow Concubine Zhang."
"Once someone does that,
Concubine Zhang's life will be in danger. For her, it is better to do something big and spectacular than to let others slaughter her." "Therefore, we can completely instigate Concubine Zhang's subordinates to rebel and promise them a vassal kingship. Then they will naturally hand over Concubine Zhang. We can let General Tang kill Concubine Zhang personally to relieve his hatred and conquer the enemy without losing a single soldier."
"But..."
Wen Yifan paused at the right time, and Gongsun Yue sounded very anxious.
"Hey, Old Wen, we have known each other for many years. If you have something to say, just say it. Don't keep me in suspense."
Wen Yifan smiled and said, "But there is a big problem."
"We have no money."
Gongsun Yue was silent for a rare time. "We don't collect taxes. We rely on the shops of the queen to support us. We really don't have much money."
"If we don't have money, those people probably won't cooperate with us easily."
Now Dashun's expenses are all paid by these shops at home.
These shops make money every day, and the income is very considerable, but there are many people who spend money. If you want to come up with enough money to impress the enemy, it is still not enough.
