Chapter 46 By the Huishui River
The State of Wei, Anyi, and the palaces of the State of Wei.
"Master Zhong, your Majesty has summoned you."
"Okay, lead the way."
Following the footsteps of a palace servant, Duan Qianjie, who is now serving as a doctor in the Kingdom of Wei, slowly walked into the main hall in front of him.
Speaking of this period of Qianjie, we have to mention Duan Qianmu, a famous official during Wei Wenhou's period.
When Duan Qianmu was young, he traveled to Xihe, Wei State, and later joined the disciples of Xia, a disciple of Confucius and a great Confucian at that time, together with his friend Tian Zifang.
It was under the teachings of Zixia and the influence of the prosperous literary style of the Xihe School that Duan Qianmu made great progress in his knowledge and moral character, and his reputation was known to all the princes in the world.
Wei Wenhou, Wei Si, heard about Duan Qianmu's name and immediately came to visit him under the moonlight and sincerely invited Duan Qianmu to join the Wei Kingdom.
Duan Qianmu had a noble character, and in accordance with the ancient saying "If you are not a minister, you will not see the princes", he escaped over the wall when Wei Wenhou visited him.
Faced with Duan Qianmu's behavior, Wei Wenhou was not only not angry, but also treated him with great respect every time he passed by him.
Duan Qianmu was finally moved by Wei Wenhou's sincerity and chose to join the Wei Kingdom, thus creating a story of harmony between the monarch and his ministers.
After Duan Qianmu assisted Wei Wenhou, the Qin State led the army to march eastward, preparing to launch a war against the Wei State to regain Hexi.
At this time, someone in the Qin State warned Ying Daozi, Duke Jiang of Qin who was in power at that time, saying that with Duan Qianmu assisting Wei State and the people of the country being united, it would be difficult for Qin State to attack Wei State and win at this moment.
After much deliberation, Duke Jiang of Qin finally gave up his attack on Wei.
Using one person's reputation to eliminate war in a country can be seen from Duan Qianmu's achievements in assisting Wei Wenhou.
Duan Qianmu chose to leave the court in his later years, imitating his teacher Zixia and giving lectures in the Hedong area of Wei State, and eventually became a great Confucian.
After Duan Qianmu passed away, his son Duan Qianjie also entered the Wei Kingdom, and he is the man standing in front of Wei? at this moment.
"Your Majesty, Duan Qianjie, pays homage to you."
Hearing the voice in front of him, Wei? slowly moved his eyes away from the bamboo slips in front of him, and a smile immediately appeared on his face.
"Master Zhong, please rise and take a seat."
After a few breaths, when Duan Qianjie sat down firmly on the seat below him, Wei Wei slowly asked: "I wonder why the doctor wants to see you today?"
"Your Majesty, your Majesty has returned a document from Xinzheng. After receiving it, I did not dare to be negligent in the slightest and immediately went to the palace to present it to Your Majesty." As he said this, Duan Qianjie took out a volume of silk book from his arms and handed it to him.
Waiting on the palace servants on the side.
Taking the silk book from the hands of the palace servant, Wei? With a kind face, he said, "I have a useful doctor."
Then Wei?'s eyes began to move slowly on the silk book in his hand, and his thoughts continued to fly along with the seal characters on it.
After a long time, Wei? slowly put down the silk book in his hand, and the expression on his face became calm again.
His eyes fell on Duan Qianjie again, and he heard Wei? She said in a deep voice: "Reply to the doctor and tell me that there is no need to worry about South Korea shelving the matter."
"South Korea can afford to wait for this, and we, Wei, can afford to wait even more."
"Here."
When Duan Qianjie saw that Wei Wei had already made a decision, he immediately bowed slightly and gave a light salute.
Now that the first thing about his entry into the palace has come to an end, Duan Qianjie guided the conversation to the second thing.
"Your Majesty, I have one more thing to report."
"Oh?" He gently put down the silk book in his hand and looked at the other party with a bit of curiosity, "I wonder what else the doctor has to do?"
After spending some time sorting out his words, Wei Wei heard Duan Qianjie report in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, since the beginning of the war against South Korea and Zhao, our country, Wei, has been victorious in consecutive battles on the southern front."
"Under the leadership of Sima, the army not only won the battle of Maling, but now it is also suppressing Xinzheng, the capital of South Korea."
Having said this, Duan Ganjie suddenly changed the subject and shifted Wei's attention from the southern front to the northern front battlefield.
"It's just that compared to the continuous great victories on the southern front, the 60,000-strong army on the northern front has not received any news of a major battle for several months."
"If this continues, the northern battlefield will inevitably reach a stalemate, which is of no benefit to our country, Wei."
At the end of the sentence, Duan Ganjie asked Wei Wei softly with some temptation: "Do you need to send an order to the Prime Minister to ask him to find a fighter plane and fight the decisive battle with the Korean and Zhao coalition forces in front of him as soon as possible?"
After listening to Duan Qianjie's suggestion, Wei? couldn't help but fell into thinking for a while.
The wars in his previous life have already made him understand that his military talents cannot be said to be godlike in military use, but can also be said to be unsightly. 1
Therefore, compared to sending orders to interfere with Prime Minister Gong Shucuo's battle strategy, Wei Xi preferred to completely trust him and let him fight the battle without restraint.
Having made the decision in his heart, Wei? looked at Duan Qianjie below and said, "Master Zhongdao, just give me the order to the Prime Minister."
While speaking, Wei? suddenly stood up from his seat and said with a solemn face: "I will be waiting outside Anyi City for him to lead the army in triumph."
"I will obey your Majesty's orders."
…
Wei State, south bank of Huishui River.
Along with a burst of heavy footsteps, the figure of an army on the horizon slowly became clearer from far to near.
This army moved forward along the river. The surging river water, the sound of footsteps and the clash of armors together played a piece of music that was both hard and soft.
After a while, a sudden change interrupted this beautiful music, and a somewhat tense atmosphere filled the entire team.
"General, look at the other side, it's Zhao Jun."
Following the voice of a Wei soldier beside him, Wei general Gongsun Cuo, who was leading the team, looked to the other side. A Zhao army of about several hundred people appeared in his field of vision on the north bank of the Huishui River.
The Wei army discovered the Zhao army on the north bank, and the Zhao army also discovered the Wei army on the south bank. The two sides just looked at each other across a river.
There was no tense situation like there was on the southern front. After looking at each other for a while, the two armies located in the north and south of Huishui chose to leave and continue their patrols.
But if you look carefully at the expressions in the eyes of the two generals, you will find that a fighting spirit appears in their eyes.
What is maintained between the two sides now is only superficial peace. Once the situation changes, a life-and-death war between the two sides will immediately begin.
The pace of war is already in the confrontation between the two sides, and it is descending on this battlefield step by step...
After the previous episode, Gongsun Cuo continued to lead the soldiers and completed the remaining patrol missions.
When he returned to the Wei army camp on the south bank of Huishui River, a long-awaited messenger immediately came to him.
"General, the Prime Minister asks you to go to the Chinese army's tent after returning to camp. He has important matters to discuss with you."
"okay, I get it."
After receiving this news, Gongsun Cuo slowly came to the Chinese army's tent.
"Reporting to the prime minister, the last general Gongsun Cuo asked for an audience."
"Come in."
Hearing this voice, Gongsun Cuo slowly stepped into the tent, and a figure sitting behind a few desks slowly appeared in his field of vision.
Watching Gongsun Cuo enter the big tent, Wei Xianggong Shu Cuo slowly stood up from the seat with a kind face and walked slowly in front of him.
"General Gongsun, is there any movement on the other side?"
