Chapter 222 Chapter 222: Get a piece of land [Take a leave]
Although Shen Tang also has plans in this regard, but——
Gu Chi’s question is too straightforward.
People are so straightforward, so she has to be honest.
He said sincerely: "Of course."
Whether it's for yourself or for these hundreds of people.
Thinking of this, her eyes darkened slightly.
Her way of being a prince is too restrictive, and she needs a stable territory if she wants to grow up. Not having a stable territory means that she has no room for obscene development. Because humans have two legs, they can carry their household belongings and run around, but they can’t carry the crops they plant.
It takes time for crops to mature from planting to maturity.
It’s not like Shen Tang has never thought about occupying the mountain and becoming the king.
But this kind of behavior is too risky and can only be regarded as a last resort.
Because Shen Tang is not the nominal owner of the land under his feet! If her name is not justified, others are qualified to attack her in the name of "removing harm for the people" and "suppressing bandits." Even if she relies on her own strength and is not afraid of harassment from the outside world, she will fight one by one!
But——
You can only be a thief for a thousand days, how can you prevent a thief for a thousand days?
The latter can always find an opportunity to strike.
Even if he succeeds once out of ten times, Shen Tang may not have the chance to turn around—the capital is too small to bear the trouble!
Thinking further, if she wants to recruit refugees for her own use in the future and expand her scale, she must have a piece of land to settle people, right? Otherwise, why would a bunch of refugees come here? Follow her from one end to the other?
She has no reputation and no territory, and the refugees don’t care about her.
No territory means that all plans are empty talk.
Shen Tang asked Gu Chi for advice: "Mr. Gu, does he have any good ideas?"
Gu Chi really has it.
He smiled and took a sip of green plum wine, which was meaningful.
"I dare not say it is a good strategy, but it is indeed a good opportunity! This opportunity is right in front of us, we just have to see whether we can seize it!"
Shen Tang frowned: "A good opportunity? It is still close to us. ?"
After thinking for a moment, she understood where the "good opportunity" Gu Chi was referring to... However, she didn't know whether to say it or not. This "good opportunity" was a hot potato... She just Will he die faster?
Shen Tang shook his head: "Mr. Gu thinks too highly of me."
Gu Chi encouraged Gong Huo: "Wealth can be found in danger."
"That's true, but once this 'Risk' is far greater than 'wealth', if you continue to do it, the gain will outweigh the loss..." Shen Tang paused, as if Afraid that Gu Chi would misunderstand, he added, "I have strength, so naturally I am not afraid of the generals facing each other in front of the two armies. Even if my skills are not as good as others, I still have Yuan Liang and the others, so it is okay to surrender them all... But, I can Just because you can do it doesn’t mean that others can do it too.”
At least not with the hundreds of people under my command.
Sending them to the battlefield is no different from sending them to meet the King of Hell.
"How does Mr. Shen know that he can't succeed?"
Shen Tang shook his head: "This is not a question of success... To say the least, even if he succeeds by chance, with Zheng Qiao's temperament and style, he takes it seriously. Will he keep his promise?"
Even if it is a sealed edict, he can turn his back on it.
"Mr. Shen is too cautious." Gu Chi squinted his eyes contentedly, with a bit of careless laziness in his expression, "Zheng Qiao issued that edict just because he wanted to be like a snipe and a clam. Fighting, he likes to be a fisherman and profit from it , but it exposed his biggest weakness. It was this weakness that made Zheng Qiao dare not break his promise easily, but he had to hold his nose and admit it..."
Gu Chi changed. A more comfortable position.
"Mr. Chen, you might as well take a guess."
Hearing this, Shen Tang looked at Qi Shan, who was listening quietly.
Qi Shan did not give any hints.
Shen Tang: "..."
She lowered her eyes and thought for a while, and then tried to ask: "Zheng Qiao's biggest weakness - is it that he is strong on the outside and weak on the inside? He has the Geng Kingdom in his hands. The national seal and the rebels led by King She only had the advantage of "surprise". If the two sides faced off, Zheng Qiao would have a greater chance of winning. "
But——
Zheng Qiao did not send troops to kill King She and others. Not only did he not do this, he also issued an edict, calling on people with lofty ideals to crusade against the traitors. Regardless of their origins, who could make achievements in the crusade, be promoted to an official position, or be crowned king... It seemed to be a very normal edict. make.
But there are too many tricks in it. The most interesting point is that "regardless of one's origin and past". The translation is - Zheng Qiao is very generous. As long as he can make meritorious deeds, even if the person who made meritorious deeds has raised troops to rebel, he can still be wiped out!
Only discuss merits, not faults!
As he spoke, Shen Tang's thoughts became clearer and smoother.
Analysis: "If Zheng Qiao is capable of annihilating King Shi's rebels, why would he make a promise like 'crack the soil and seal the king'?"
This is not how to paint a big cake. of.
"...If it is said that it is incapable, it doesn't seem to make sense..."
The advantage of the National Seal is not a joke.
"Unless - Zheng Qiao is temporarily unable to send troops for some reason, and can only use external forces to contain the power of the Pig King. He is afraid that the bait is not big enough and other fish will not take the bait, so he throws out a temptation that no one can resist? Listen? It seems like he is stalling for time..."
A flash of surprise flashed in Gu Chi's eyes.
"Shen Lang is smart, and his guess is that eight [nine] is close to ten."
Shen Tang asked: "So, do you know the reason?"
Gu Chi: " In fact, it is not difficult to guess. Why did Prince She and others so quickly rebel against Zheng Qiao's confidants? Once Zheng Qiao knew about it, they would have no other way out. "< br>
This shows how unpopular Zheng Qiao is.
He acts ruthlessly and is not only feared by his enemies, but also by those around him, and fear cannot make his subordinates truly give up. While Zheng Qiao made his subordinates fearful, he also fostered their ambitions. As long as there is a chance, they will betray without hesitation!
Just to get out of Zheng Qiao’s control!
Gu Chi said calmly: "The example of King She has also inspired others - taking advantage of the opportunity to rebel against Zheng Qiao is the safest way to save his life! In this case, Zheng Qiao certainly would not dare to do so at this time Send troops to clear out the rebels of King Shi, because once he delegates his military power, the first thing those rebel generals will do is to kill him! "
On the contrary——
Luring various forces into a fight with King Pig, no matter which side wins or both sides suffer, Zheng Qiao remains firmly on the Diaoyutai.
The wishful thinking crackled loudly.
But——
How can things in the world go as planned?
It is precisely because of this weakness that Zheng Qiao will not break his promise easily. Gu Chi hoped that Shen Tang could seize this opportunity and finally get a piece of land, which would give him a foothold. As long as you successfully take root, you will have taken the first step successfully!
Things will unfold in the future.
But Shen Tang's worry is -
Gong Shuwu and Chu Yao are not here, and she has only more than a hundred people under her command. What should she do to make a difference and get the first place in life? A piece of land? This problem is very important!
More than a hundred people entered the battlefield, and there was no splash.
Shen Tang’s voice did not shy away from Gu Chi.
Gu Chi said with a smile: "More than a hundred people can't do it. Except for Gong Shuwu, Shen Lang doesn't have any brave warriors who can do it. But Shen Lang is different. As long as he can stand in front of the two armies, To become famous... isn’t it easy to get credit?”
Shen Tang: “…”,
I’m careless!
She was the one who worked on the co-author from beginning to end? ? ?
Others are employees who work to support the boss... But here she is, the "boss" who works hard to support the "employees"?
Alas, the world is a mixed bag.
While I was feeling resentful, there were soldiers outside the tent spreading a message.
It turned out that Gu Ren was going to attend the conference. He was worried that Shen Tang would not be able to find his way or be looked down upon and neglected, so he called her out.
Shen Tang: "..."
Overestimating myself...
Did my cousin move into a new house? I went over to help, but he was called up at five or six o'clock... Hey, I didn't go to bed until after three o'clock in the morning... I was in a trance all day, sleepy and tired, and went home after finishing my work in the afternoon. , I supplemented it for two hours, but the more I supplemented, the more tired I became. When I woke up, I felt that my body was empty...
I couldn’t move anymore, felt flustered, and was going to take a day off to go to bed early.
Tomorrow I will have enough energy to update...
