588. Chapter 588 Comfort is the best
Zhang Yi nodded and responded to Gongsun Yan: "The general's words are exactly what I want. I think the Lin Hulang Cavalry is also deeply dissatisfied with Mantuo, and blamed him for drinking and making frequent mistakes in military use, which led to the death of most of his companions at the hands of the people of Zhao."
Gongsun Yan laughed and said, "We can take advantage of the internal resentment of the Wolf Cavalry to do something." He thought for a moment and suggested, "It would be better to announce to the Wolf Cavalry that Mantuo was replaced in the name of the coalition forces because he violated military orders and missed the military opportunity. However, he himself was dissatisfied and fought stubbornly. In the end, he had to kill him to protect the remaining troops of the Wolf Cavalry."
Zhang Yi also felt that the excuse made up by Gongsun Yan was very appropriate and appropriate. He also laughed and praised Gongsun Yan for his words: "General Gongsun is wise."
Gongsun Yan raised his head proudly and laughed a few times. Zhang Yi saw that he was really content with him, and felt uncomfortable. Because he did not expect these words, but because he wanted to agree with Gongsun Yan, he guided Gongsun Yan to say it out.
However, the direct consequence of the guidance of knowingly asking is to encourage Gongsun Yan's arrogant mentality. Over time, how could he take Zhang Yi seriously?
Zhang Yi and Gongsun Yan walked and said, "He came to the front of Mantuo's tent together. After the two of them got off the horses, Shi Hong came up to meet him, and he bowed and bowed to Zhang Yi.
Shi Hong was worried that Zhang Yi would blame him for getting rid of Mantuo, so he explained: "Prime Minister, that Mantuo is really hateful, he is cunning and insidious,..."
Shi Hong then reported to Zhang Yi all the time when he had just fought with Mantuo. Of course, he was also in a direction that was beneficial to him, highlighting Mantuo's cruelty and his helplessness.
Seeing Shi Hong's anxious look, Zhang Yi smiled and expressed that he had no intention of blaming Shi Hong. Seeing Zhang Yi's relaxed expression, Shi Hong felt his heart in his stomach.
Zhang Yi and Gongsun Yan wanted to make up Mantuo's stubborn resistance, worried that Shi Hong would be seen by Lin Hu people in the battle, so they asked Shi Hong: "When General Shi executed Mantuo just now, was there someone else at the scene?"
Shi Hong thought for a moment and pointed to the commander of the Shaliao guard near the horse stake that was still outside the tent, and said, "In the fight just now, except for those people, the other Lin Hu cavalry themselves were also surrounded, and they were not aware of it."
Zhang Yi ordered his subordinates to bring Sha Liao and others to him. He briefly asked Sha Liao's identity and wanted to weigh whether these guards should be executed together.
Sha Liao was a man who came up from a slave. He was able to obtain the current status of the chief guard by relying on his ability to observe his expressions. When he saw Zhang Yi's expression, he almost guessed what Zhang Yi was thinking.
Sha Liao thought to himself: "This Qin Prime Minister probably doesn't like Mantuo very much. He was thinking about whether to kill us and bury Mantuo for him! I want to defend myself and I will never be able to die for a general I hate."
Sha Liao hurriedly explained to Zhang Yi in a slightly crappy Central Plains dialect: "Mantuo is a bad guy. He misses the problem when he eats alcohol and beats the soldiers. He is really dead."
Zhang Yi said "um" and felt a little surprised. With his past experience, people like generals' guards are the most difficult to take down, because they will develop loyalty to each other over time with the general. But Mantuo's chief guard is completely different.
Zhang Yi asked, "What's your name? How did you follow Zuo Xian Wang Mantuo?"
Sha Liao found that things had a turnaround, so he thought about how to find the right Zhongyuan language, and cried and told Zhang Yi and others about Mantuo's bullying of him and other guards, as well as how Mantuo got drunk when the military situation was most urgent, so that he allowed the Prince of Zhao in Jinyang City to pass through the Linhulang Cavalry Camp with a swagger.
While Sha Liao was speaking, he occasionally asked several guards for their response in Lin Huyu. Of course, the guards nodded frequently, expressing their full agreement with Sha Liao's words.
Zhang Yi heard the fundamental reason for the defeat of Lin Hulang cavalry from the process of telling and gesturing, which was undoubtedly Mantuo's arrogance and simplicity.
Zhang Yi nodded constantly, and felt that Mantuo was really worthy of death. It seemed that this person not only offended the Qin people, but also hated him deeply, which was extremely ridiculous. Unfortunately, he was deceived by his superficial whistle and lacked a deeper understanding of him.
Zhang Yi thought to himself: "This problem of Mantuo seems to be like many nobles in the Central Plains. He relies on his noble background, arrogant and despicable. He even did not even be polite to the guards he served around him and blindly punished and chased him. Then he was not seeking death. It is important to know that the closer people around him, the more they could not be treated simply, let alone shouting and killing at will."
Zhang Yi was thinking about Mantuo's faults. Sha Liao saw him pondering again, and couldn't help feeling a little panicked. He thought about what information he could use and told Zhang Yi that he could impress him. Because Sha Liao was serving the Central Army, he naturally had his own unique secret in this regard.
What's more, before he participated in the Wolf Cavalry Operation, he had been in the royal court of Shanyu and had more knowledge of the secrets of the Wolf Cavalry Operation.
Sha Liao suddenly thought of the inner responder of Zhao State. This person is said to be a high-level nobleman of Zhao State and a close relative of the royal family. He has always been in contact with Lin Hu Wangting and Zuo Xian Wang Mantuo.
Sha Liao thought: "Zhang Yi and others will be interested in the situation in Zhao that I know, because they did not capture the prince of Zhao and were thinking about how to recover the losses?"
Sha Liao knew Zhao's name and also understood the specific process of his interactions with the Lin and Hu people. These information was enough to impress the Qin Prime Minister Zhang Yi.
Thinking of this, Sha Liao said to Zhang Yi: "I dared to ask the noble Prime Minister Zhang of Qin to forgive the surrounding Lin Hu cavalry. These people are innocent. The Wolf Cavalry has lost most of its troops, and the remaining ones are not worth much now."
He looked at Zhang Yi with his eyes fixedly and said mysteriously: "If Prime Minister Zhang agrees to this request, I can reveal a crucial information to you."
