Wang Mo saw that everyone was sighing and knew that he would not hear anything interesting next, so he quietly turned around and left the viewing pavilion. He was standing on the outside and kept a low profile, so no one noticed when he came and went.
he.
Wang Mo has always maintained a respectful attitude towards these well-educated celebrities. Every time he gets news about these people's gatherings, no matter how busy he is, he will always try his best to come and listen.
Wang Mo has always believed that his greatest strength is his ability to remain calm at all times, both to himself and to others.
Staying calm helps to display strength stably. Therefore, although Wang Mo's intelligence and martial arts are not top-notch, he is second only to Wang Yu in the Taishan Wang family.
Not rushing to grab the limelight, working in a low profile, and working hard without complaining. This is the name of Wang Mo, who has no relatives, but is the only Wang Mo among the Wang family who can stand up and take the lead. This is the impression in the minds of the officials in Qingzhou.
The officials' evaluation of Wang Mo was much higher than his status and power.
In the past few years, what he has done most is trivial matters, whether it is government affairs, military affairs, or personnel or financial affairs. As long as Wang Yu can't take care of them for a while, he will silently take on the responsibility of filling in the gaps.
.Moreover, he will calmly quit before the work is successfully completed every time. He does not take credit or love power.
Although there are conspiracy theorists like Wei Yan who privately find fault with all the unreasonable aspects of his behavior. Wang Mo thinks he has a clear conscience, so he doesn't care about it.
Everyone has selfish motives, and of course he is not exempt from vulgarity. However, Wang Mo is very clear about the temperament of his world-famous disciple. Those who are capable will not be judged as heroes based on their bloodline. Qingzhou's civil and military officials are all
The heroes of the world are far more talented than him. If he relies on his status to fight for power, he will definitely follow in the footsteps of his brothers who do not know how to live or die.
The Wang family in Taishan is the leading wealthy family in Taishan, and its population is very prosperous. The reason why he is the only one in a high position is because everyone else has smashed their heads against this invisible wall.
Wang Mo didn't understand it at first. Brothers fighting tigers, father and son fighting in battle, after all, it's the family members who are more trustworthy, right? After all, Cao Cao, Sun Ce, Yuan Shao, and even Lu Bu, who didn't do this? Wei Xu
You participated in the rebellion back then! Even if you are pardoned for such a serious crime, isn't it just for the sake of Mrs. Yan?
But as time went by, he gradually adapted to it and gradually understood that relatives may not be trustworthy, and the rule that the capable prevails can bring the strongest motivation.
At the beginning of the founding of the People's Republic of China, the great ancestor Liu Bang believed that only relatives were the most trustworthy. As a result, he enfeoffed vassals and massacred heroes. What was the result? First, relatives became rampant and power was lost, and then there were continuous vassal rebellions, the largest of which was the Seven-Year Plan.
The chaos in the country directly swept through most of the Central Plains!
At the beginning of the founding of the country, the Han Empire had been suppressed by the Xiongnu because of endless civil strife. When the internal integration was completed, it was time to fight back.
Wang Mo felt that Wang Yu might have taken this as a lesson, so he treated his relatives equally. After all, the ambition of this young champion was very lofty, far exceeding that of any king in the previous three thousand years.
Wang Mo was not sure whether Wang Yu would treat his children and grandchildren equally in the future, but he could only assume that he would give up the fight for power and concentrate on enhancing his personal strength.
It was driven by this concept that he won the reputation of a wise king in the eyes of his ministers.
Of course, Wang Mo will not be complacent because of this, he knows exactly what he wants to do.
Leaving the viewing pavilion, he walked quickly along the river bank and began a routine inspection. The emergency mobilization started two days ago, and now 30,000 militiamen have been assembled, and dozens of beacon towers have been set up on both sides of the river.
, Strict defense along the river.
The Yellow River has always been the back garden of the Qingzhou navy, but no matter how many ships there are, it is impossible to block the thousands-mile Yellow River. In fact, after the war began, Zhou Cang's navy has been patrolling the Yanjin and Baima areas. This is to block the river.
, also plays the role of reserve team.
Strictly speaking, the Yellow River Navy is an amphibious force, and only the Navy is a full-time navy. Even so, there are branches of the Marine Corps in the Navy. After all, the Qingzhou Navy is too strong, and its strength is completely overwhelming. Except for Liaodong,
Apart from the two naval forces in Jiangdong, the full-time navy could not even find a rival.
It may not be possible to urgently mobilize naval forces to return reinforcements. Moreover, there seems to be a dispute in the shogunate regarding the issue of mobilizing naval forces to return reinforcements. It is not possible to count on it for the moment. Gaotang's defense still depends on itself.
For now, the morale of the militia is very high. As soon as the slogan of protecting the homeland and the country is shouted, the Qingzhou people who have experienced long-term military training are very motivated. It is not an exaggeration to say that the momentum is like a rainbow.
However, Wang Mo will not take this lightly.
The biggest difference between militiamen and soldiers is not training intensity or equipment, but experience and resilience. Militiamen who have not experienced cruel wars may be brave at the beginning of the war, but once the situation changes and the battle becomes a stalemate or even a disadvantage, their
Fighting spirit will quickly fade.
In a sense, Qingzhou's militia is not much better than the Yellow Turban Army back then. They are also a ragtag group of people who are better at fighting against the wind. Once they are frustrated, their combat effectiveness will be sharply reduced.
Commanding such an army is quite a test of the commander's psychological quality.
It is precisely because of this that Xu Shu, who commanded the militia to defeat powerful enemies several times, was hailed as a famous general in the world and became the youngest front army commander in Qingzhou.
Wang Mo didn't think he had the ability, so he was not enthusiastic about replacing Chen Dao as commander. He patrolled the river defense just to fulfill his duties as a deputy general, and at the same time, it was also a convenience. His main purpose of coming to the camp along the river was to find Chen Dao.
arrive.
Chen Dao's personality is somewhat similar to Gao Shun's. He is not a man of words, but he is very inactive. Even if he is an acquaintance, he rarely initiates topics. He will only answer if the other person asks first. Occasionally, he will talk when he is interested.
Will talk endlessly.
Of course, there are very few people who can see this side of Chen Dao. At least as far as Wang Mo knows, except for himself and Zhao Yun, no one seems to have this kind of friendship with Chen Dao.
The general is like this, and the soldiers he brings out seem to be infected with this characteristic. The military camp where Chen Dao is located is much quieter than ordinary military camps, either the kind of murderous silence, or the most peaceful and ordinary kind. It seems that there is no such thing in the military camp
Soldiers have the same feeling as a group of civilians.
Of course, this is not a bad thing. Even for soldiers, they cannot raise their morale too high before the start of the war is confirmed. This is the truth.
"Where is General Chen?" But Chen Dao's style is not all good, because he goes silently wherever he goes, so Wang Mo can't guess where the general will appear now.
"The general is reading by the river." The soldier's answer left Wang Mo speechless.
You know, Chen is currently on the cusp of the storm! Wang Mo estimates that in the past few days, the number of times his friend's name has been mentioned may be much more than the number of times his friend's name has been mentioned in the past 20 years combined.
several times.
Even just walking on the street, Chen Dao would be surrounded by looks of suspicion, wariness, and even hostility or hatred. Colleagues would not be so explicit, but the atmosphere would definitely not be pleasant.
Even Wang Mo, a bystander, had trouble sleeping and eating. As a result, Chen Dao was in the center of the whirlpool and acted like nothing happened. It really made people wonder how to comment.
Under the guidance of his own soldiers, Wang Mo found Chen Dao by the river. The latter did not notice his arrival at all. He was leaning on a stone as high as half a man, holding a large book and reading it with gusto.
Wang Mo took a closer look at the cover, and he was immediately angry and funny. The four characters "Feng Shen Yan Yi" were clearly written on the cover. He thought that this guy was taking some time off to read classics such as military books and strategies, but it turned out to be this
Planting something out of tune!
This book was created by Kong Rong and Mi Heng's gang of idlers. I heard that the idea came from the lord. Wang Mo has also read it and found it interesting. However, this thing is just for entertainment. No lord would read it when he is about to fight.
This? Fortunately, no one noticed it. Under the current situation, if the news got out, there is no telling what kind of uproar it would cause.
"I said, Uncle Zhi, you are so leisurely, could it be that you want to change your career to become a celebrity?"
"Well, it's Mo Jie." When he looked up and saw Wang Mo, Chen Dao showed a rare smile, but still responded unhurriedly: "Military affairs have been arranged. If the enemy comes, we will resist it according to the established strategy.
But what else can I do? If I walk back and forth in the camp, I will make everyone nervous."
"That's what I said..." Wang Mo stumbled and said with a wry smile: "But don't forget, these are extraordinary times, so you have to show off."
Chen Dao thought for a while and asked: "Are you referring to those rumors?"
Wang Mo hesitated for a moment, then forced a smile and said: "Don't worry too much, it's not that everyone can't trust you, it's just... Hey, look at my mouth, I'm so stupid. I can't speak clearly even though I'm speaking. In short?
, you should do something right?”
"Hmm." Chen Dao lowered his head and looked at the novel in his hand, as if he agreed with Wang Mo's opinion, but then he asked another rhetorical question, which made Wang Mo speechless: "Then, what should I do to get rid of everything?"
What about people’s doubts?”
Wang Mo cried out sadly in his heart: This is a disease! A heartless disease, the kind that has no cure!
But having said that, nothing really works right at this time.
If you stay in the military camp all the time, you may be regarded as someone who is plotting evil and clinging to military power. Like now, you may be regarded as someone with ulterior motives and deliberately slacking off on military affairs. If you look for someone to explain to you, most likely you will be accused of being a thief with a guilty conscience.
, is suspected of being connected in series or something.
Anyway, nothing is right, so just do what is within your responsibilities. This way of coping is very much in line with Chen Dao's style.
"Forget it, let's not talk about it." Wang Mo sighed and gave up persuading, "But, Uncle Zhi, you must have a plan for how to deal with the enemy, right? You are the commander-in-chief."
Chen Dao raised his head, with a rather complicated look in his eyes. He hesitated for a moment, but then asked without answering: "Mo Jie, you should also know very well. After this battle is over, there won't be many opportunities to make military exploits...
...For you, this should be a good opportunity, are you not tempted at all?"
Wang Mo smiled slightly: "If you say it's not true at all, it must be an unintentional statement. However, I know myself. I am not able to deal with this opponent. Even if you and I work together, the chance of winning will not exceed 50%. Lord.
He should be on his way back. In this battle, Cao Cao will definitely go all out. Only by capturing Gaotang can he ensure victory. Therefore, you and I will definitely face more than just Liu Bei! Let alone changing
At this point, I don’t even have to find a few capable helpers, so how can I have time to think about what is available and what is not available?”
Wang Mo has never asked how Chen Dao plans to deal with his relationship with Liu Bei. There is no need for this. After Chen Dao sacrificed his life in the battle of Surabaya, he has already regarded his life as the price to repay the kindness of knowing him. There is no need to continue to entangle him.
Unclear.
The reason why this incident caused such a big commotion is that Chen Dao's character is too gentle, which can easily give people the wrong impression. He is obviously a very simple person, but he looks like he is very dignified.
"Help? In fact, I have thought of someone, but it's hard for me to show up now." After hearing Wang Mobiao's words, a strange light flashed in Chen Dao's eyes. Wang Mo was not very sure.
But he felt that this look should represent touching emotions.
I was moved, but Chen Dao reciprocated the favor and raised a difficult problem: "Since Mo Jie is determined, why not take the responsibility, invite this person, discuss countermeasures, and explain to the military advisor to avoid further complications?"
Although it was a difficult problem, Wang Mo made the decision without hesitation: "That's very good. I'll leave this matter to my little brother! I just don't know which master is my favorite?"
"Lu Xun and Lu Boyan!" Chen Dao smiled slightly and whispered a name.
"What?" Although Wang Mo was fully prepared mentally, he was still shocked. (To be continued. Please search Piao Tian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster!)
