After hearing Li Xiang's praise, Wang Meng was very happy. Of course, a great counselor like Wang Meng could not be happy just because of a compliment from others. What he was really happy about was that Li Xiang compared him to Zhang Zifang, and compared himself to Zhang Zifang.
As the Great Ancestor. Perhaps even Li Xiang himself didn't think there was anything wrong with his words, but to Wang Meng, this was an inadvertent reflection of Li Xiang's ambition.
Wang Meng is not afraid of his lord's ambition, and even hopes that his lord's ambition will be bigger and better. He is only afraid that his lord lacks ambition. Because only if his lord is ambitious can what he has learned be better demonstrated.
"Ding, congratulations to the host for gaining 10 summoning points, and the remaining summoning points are now 37."
Li Xiang was overjoyed. Now that Wang Meng had contributed summon points, he seemed to be sincerely worshiping the Lord. This trip was indeed worthwhile. With Wang Meng here, the subsequent battle with the Huns would be much easier.
Thinking of this, he immediately asked Wang Meng, "Now that the Xiongnu are aggressively suppressing the country, I wonder if you, sir, have any advice for me."
Wang Meng's face became more serious when he heard this. This was the first time he offered advice after worshiping the Lord. He must give a perfect answer to his Lord to prove his talents.
"My lord, as far as I know, the Huns suffered heavy losses of cattle and sheep due to winter snowstorms, making it difficult for the tribe to survive, so they invaded the country on a large scale. I don't know if this is true or not?"
"I don't know what exactly you want to say, sir," Li Xiang said puzzled.
Wang Meng's eyes flashed, "As far as Meng knows, not only the Xiongnu, but almost the entire grassland has been affected by the disaster. Therefore, not only the Xiongnu, but also Wuhuan, Xianbei, and even some small tribes want to rely on them.
They robbed the Han people and survived the crisis. Since the Xiongnu suffered the most serious disaster, it is estimated that the Xiongnu not only dispatched 80,000 troops, but also other Xiongnu tribes were coming. After all, although the Xiongnu has been declining in recent years, its heritage is still the same.
There are some.”
Li Xiang was shocked. I am afraid that this war will be difficult, and the people on the border may suffer another catastrophe.
"My lord, there is no need to worry. This matter is not necessarily a bad thing for my lord."
After hearing this, Li Xiang knew that everything must be under Wang Meng's control, and hurriedly asked, "Sir, I don't know what we should do."
Wang Meng took a sip of tea and said, "My lord, almost everyone in the northern border will encounter war this time. This matter will definitely alarm the court, and the war in Bingzhou is the most serious. As long as the court takes care of one or two things, and
If the war is temporarily delayed, the imperial court will definitely allow us to recruit a certain number of soldiers in Bingzhou to resist the Xiongnu."
"Sir, you want the Li family to take this opportunity to expand their strength. But in this case, Na Dingyuan will also take the opportunity to develop. After all, as the governor of Bingzhou, he holds a righteous position and is afraid of raising tigers!"
"Lord, please listen to my next plan first, but if this plan is to succeed, this battle needs to be won."
Li Xiang looked happy and said, "Sir, please tell me. With you here, it won't be difficult to win this time."
"My Lord, if we win this battle, we can secretly use the name of Ding Yuan's subordinates, bring a large amount of treasures to bribe the general He Jin, and seek the position of the Nine Ministers on Ding Yuan's behalf. We can help with the treasures and military exploits, plus Ding
Originally from He Jin, this matter must not be difficult. Since the Li family has been friends with the Wang family for generations, if Wang Yun is allowed to help run the court, the post of governor of Bingzhou will most likely be taken over by Lord Li Yang, and the world will be in chaos.
Before that, the lord can start to build a stable base camp."
Wang Meng moistened his throat and then said, "My lord, I can help Mr. Li to develop vigorously for a few years. Then the Yellow Turban Sect will cause chaos in the world, and all members of the Yellow Turban Sect are refugees, which inherently restricts their future. Perhaps the Yellow Turban Sect
It may be prosperous in the early stage, but it will inevitably fall into ruin later on, and the world will be filled with refugees. After that, you can send an edict to the court, requesting the introduction of refugees or even Yellow Turban prisoners to strengthen border stalemate defenses. At that time, the court will be faced with internal and external troubles.
, will not object. In this way, the population of Bingzhou will definitely increase greatly. All we need to do is vigorously develop internal affairs, hoard food and supplies, and raise troops for the people. When the world changes suddenly, the lord may attack Jizhou from the south and then take over all the areas south of Hebei.
The Central Plains, or going west to control the imperial court, using the Eight Passes of Luoyang to reject the Guandong princes, devouring Yongliang, taking the land of Bashu in the south and eyeing the world, are all within the lord's thoughts. Of course, if the lord wants to do this,
, when Master Bieji ascends to the position of governor, he still needs Master Li’s support, but Meng believes that this matter should not be difficult for the Lord.”
Wang Meng is worthy of being Wang Meng. This argument is not about one-third of the world proposed by Zhuge Liang for Liu Bei, but a clear future strategic plan for Li Xiang.
Of course, a lord must also have his own ideas, so that he can better control the talents under his command. Just as he was thinking about it, Li Xiang suddenly had an idea, and then thought about the possibility of a plan.
"Sir, I have some additions to your plan. I wonder if you can correct me."
Although he asked this question, Li Xiang didn't wait for Wang Meng's answer and continued, "Sir, he planned to ask the court for permission to recruit troops when the war with the Huns was at a stalemate, but Xiang thought that in addition to this, he could also recruit troops during the war.
After it was launched, people from all over the world publicized the Xiongnu's crimes on the border. After the imperial court agreed to recruit troops, it took the opportunity to issue an order to kill the Hu, calling on the world's ambitious people to come to the border to fight against the Hu people and kill the foreigners who invaded our Han Dynasty. "
Li Xiang's idea was completely inspired by Ran Min's killing of Hu Ling. Literary men may not be good, but warriors are mostly passionate men. By then, I am afraid that Bingzhou will gain a lot, and there may be many people who have left their names in history.
Come. Of course, copying Ran Min's order to kill Hu will definitely not work. If that is the case, Li Xiang will extirpate himself among the scholars in the world. Therefore, Li Xiang will greatly change the content of the order to kill Hu.
It plays an important role, and it is controlled well so as not to affect one's image among scholars.
Who is Wang Meng? Of course he can see Li Xiang's intention behind killing Hu Ling at a glance. He has no objection to this. As long as this matter is done properly, it can greatly enhance the power of Bingzhou and even attract a group of generals to join the Bingzhou army.
中. And Wang Meng saw further. Killing Hu Ling is not a one-time deal. Heroes emerge in troubled times. When the world is in chaos and everyone comes out to choose their master, the generals need not say more. After killing Hu Ling, Li Xiang will definitely be in the hearts of the generals in the world.
He is a great master of the Ming Dynasty. When the time comes, the most indispensable thing in Bingzhou's army is generals. And those who are truly talented among the literati will definitely see Li Xiang's intentions when the time comes, and through this, Li Xiang will be among the great talents in the world.
It will definitely leave a lasting mark in my heart.
But even so, Wang Meng couldn't help but remind him, "My lord, although this plan is good, it must be done within a certain degree. If it is done well, killing Hu Ling will definitely be a weapon for my lord to strive for hegemony in the world in the future."
