Fei Yi said stubbornly: "When there is no chance, it is better to protect the country and govern the people, recharge your batteries, and wait for capable people to inherit the prime minister's legacy."
Jiang Wei was very unhappy when he heard this. Did Fei Yi mean that he was not qualified to inherit the prime minister's legacy?
This is nothing, Fei Yi continued: "Let's not talk about others, let's say that the Emperor of Wu (Sun Quan) also wanted to capture Hefei, Shouchun, and completely occupy Huainan. Zhu Ran and others only wanted to capture some Jingzhou What great things can our people accomplish?"
Jiang Wei suddenly became angry and his face turned red!
Sun Quan is the emperor and has been recognized by the Han Dynasty. Sun Quan is also famous for his strategy. But when it comes to using troops, Jiang Wei really looks down on Sun Quan, far worse than Prime Minister Zhuge! Fei Yi's implication is that Jiang Wei has received the mission of Prime Minister Zhuge. After that, his military strategy was not as good as that of Sun Quan?
Jiang Wei said coldly: "The general went on a mission to Soochow many years ago. It is said that the Emperor of Wu valued the general very highly. Could it be that the general still cherishes each other and the Emperor of Wu?"
Fei Yi looked at Jiang Wei in surprise, then smiled and refused to argue.
Jiang Wei also realized that he had been impulsive just now and was a bit unscrupulous in his words. No matter how much he attacks Fei Yi, it is really unreasonable to say that he is colluding with both internal and external parties.
Then Jiang Wei said again: "The general is probably bewitched by the local scholars in Yizhou. Most of those people just want to be safe and guard their little land and treasure. The general must not let this weaken his ambition."
Fei Yi said without hesitation: "The people of Yizhou are not our enemies."
Jiang Wei sneered and said: "So the general has the same aspirations as some Yizhou scholars?"
There was no smile on Fei Yi's face, and he just said: "I have already stated my views and opinions."
Jiang Wei held his breath in his heart and sighed helplessly: "Why does the general have to stop the Han army from advancing? What's the benefit?"
Fei Yi said seriously: "You and I are both leaders of troops, but we still don't know what it is like to use troops. Of course, it can make the soldiers shed less blood and allow the people to live a more stable life for a few more days."
Jiang Wei let out a long sigh, cupped his hands and said, "That's all, you are a general, I can't argue with you."
Although the two still bowed and said goodbye without forgetting the etiquette, they parted on bad terms.
Jiang Wei and Guo Xun walked towards the platform of the main hall. After a while, Jiang Wei looked back and glanced at Fei Yi's back. For a moment, he felt that Fei Yi was not suitable to lead an army. He was simply a woman! He almost forgot about it. He violated Prime Minister Zhuge's legacy and wasted all the trust and respect that Prime Minister Zhuge had placed in him.
Of course people will die in war, but isn't a great cause paved with thousands of dead bones? When a true man does things, his mission is more important than Mount Tai, even if the mission means the sacrifice of countless people!
The two of them were talking about Prime Minister Zhuge just now, and the Prime Minister's face seemed to reappear in Jiang Wei's mind. His voice earnestly teaching the principles of justice, his eyes looking north to the Central Plains, his eagerness, loss, and unfulfilled ambitions all seemed to be close to him. In front of Jiang Wei.
Jiang Wei's eyes gradually became firm. No one could shake his ambition, and no one could change his determination. He believed that everything he did was worth it! At this time, the two of them entered the palace together. The emperor had already Instead of being in the main hall, he retreated to the back hall, but still summoned Jiang Wei and others.
The eunuch opened the beaded curtain, and the two men entered, and immediately performed a great ceremony. Guo Xun also kowtowed to the ground, called "Your Majesty", and said a congratulatory speech.
Since Guo Xun paid a great courtesy to the Han emperor and called him your majesty, it meant surrendering to the Han Dynasty. The people of Wu and Wei are different. The people of Wu can call the emperor of Han his majesty because the two countries recognize each other; But if the people of Wei recognized the emperor of Han, their position would be that Han was the orthodoxy of the world, and Cao Wei was a traitor to the country.
This is how things are in the world. Different people cannot tell what is right or wrong. They only see where they stand.
As Jiang Wei said, the emperor was very generous and immediately issued an edict to make Guo Xun the general of the left. For outsiders to get such a title when they first arrived, the status was sufficient, but they would not gain real power so quickly.
Guo Xun was very excited and wanted to come over and thank him.
Jiang Wei didn't think much about it, but suddenly he felt something was wrong, so he grabbed Guo Xun's wide sleeve and whispered: "I'm here to thank you."
Guo Xun then turned his head and glanced at Jiang Wei. After nodding, he knelt down on the ground again and said, "I thank your Majesty for your kindness."
The superior said something, and the eunuch relayed it: "Guo Xiao has returned to the great Han Dynasty first, and I am very relieved." After saying this, the eunuch motioned to Jiang Wei.
Jiang Wei bowed and said, "My lord, please retreat." Then he led Guo Xun back first. When his back touched the bead curtain, he turned around, opened the bead curtain, straightened up and left the palace.
The two returned to the brick-paved square where they had been. Jiang Wei glanced at Guo Xun's wide sleeves calmly, and looked at his robes from time to time.
Just like how Sima Shi was treated when he came to Hanzhong, although Guo Xun did not come to seek refuge on his own initiative, Jiang Wei also arranged a house for Guo Xun to live in Chengdu. The two of them entered the palace today, because Guo Xun came with Jiang Wei, so there was no People searched him. Jiang Wei immediately wondered, could it be that Guo Xun had hidden something in his clothes?
After walking in silence for a while, Jiang Wei didn't say much. He opened his mouth to speak and asked about unrelated matters: "Sima Zhongda used to lead troops on the Western Front. Have you ever met him in Xiaoxian?"
Guo Xun replied: "We met at a banquet, but we couldn't make friends."
Jiang Weidao said: "Zi Yuan, the eldest son of Sima Zhongda, is also in Chengdu at this time. Let me introduce him to you."
Guo Xun paid his respects and said, "I'm very lucky."
After leaving the palace, Jiang Wei said he had other things to do, so he said goodbye to Guo Xun and asked Guo Xun to take a car back to his residence.
Recently, people have been defecting to the Han Kingdom one after another. Within two days, Yinping County in the north suddenly came to report that Xiahou Ba, the governor of Liangzhou in Cao Wei, had come to surrender. The soldiers were sending them to Chengdu.
Usually the people who surrendered to the Han Dynasty were only county magistrates, and there were very few county guards. This time the governor of Cao Wei also came on his own initiative! And people like Sima Shi who had been leading generals were the losers in the civil war after all. Being desperate is a special situation.
The rulers of Chengdu paid great attention to it, and the emperor personally sent envoys to the north to meet Xiahou Ba.
Xiahou Ba's father, Xia Houyuan, died in the war with the Han Kingdom, but it is normal for people to die on the battlefield. Xiahou Ba still had a relationship with the Han Kingdom. His cousin was kidnapped by Zhang Fei when he went out and became his wife. Her daughter is the queen of the current Han Emperor Liu Chan, and she also gave birth to a son to the Emperor Liu Chan.
