It would be a bit abrupt to help his master in front of the prince to say something that was almost arrogant and boastful.
This bodyguard is a nine-star master.
It turned out that Wei Ling was protected by two nine-star masters, but she suddenly rebelled against Huyi General Qi, and the two nine-star masters served by General Qi naturally walked away.
Now this nine-star master was invited by the prince to protect him, and he has not been with Wei Ling for a long time.
To be honest, this nine-star master doesn't like Wei Ling at all. Wei Ling is frivolous and conceited, and lacks kindness and virtue towards her subordinates. Without any record, he shouted and shouted at the Xuanwu soldiers he was assigned to, and even beat and scolded them a lot during the training.
The nine-star guard said that at this moment, it was like pushing her to a higher level. He was praised high and fell hard, if her suggestion of waiting a while was not good, the guard would be secretly happy instead. It's best to annoy her yourself, and quickly transfer yourself away.
"Why do you need to talk too much?" Wei Ling didn't realize this, but habitually scolded her.
The nine-star guard pleaded guilty and retreated.
The prince greeted everyone and went down the city wall, and entered the broken tent last night.
"Sit down, the condition is poor, don't mind it." The prince sat on the ground cheerfully.
Wu Zhe was the woman who didn't mind being dirty the least, she was the second one to sit down. Followed by the sad old man.
Wei Ling frowned and sat down reluctantly. Kneeling behind her was a nine-star guard.
This tent is full of memories from the past. The prince couldn't help but recall that a few hours ago, there was a woman who pushed the palace for blood, and even used her own blood to enter his body.
The crown prince took a deep look at Wu Zhe, but said nothing. He quickly turned his gaze away and returned to his calm smile.
Since meeting Wu Zhe just now, the prince has not given much grace to detoxify and save his life. Mainly because of Wei Ling's presence. It's not good to talk too much about Wu Zhe's benefits. One can imagine it personally, if Wu Zhe is really praised so much, Wei Ling's anger will only increase.
"Forgive me, I sleep a lot." Li Daochang picked up the curtain of the tent and came in, and sat down quickly.
He has been awakened, and now he is discussing strategies. It's okay without General Yang, but not without him. He was a member of the counselors, and hurried over, his clothes were all put on in a stagger.
Wei Ling seemed impatient with his lateness, but she didn't say anything, but it showed on her expression.
Please, Li Daochang was busy all night last night, okay? Wu Zhe was speechless to Wei Ling who had slept through the night.
"Okay, almost all are here." The prince said: "The general situation now is that we have two hostages, Prince Xuan and General Chu."
Wei Ling gave a slight snort.
"We were lucky enough to capture these two people. It's a pity that the Wu** team seems to have the plan of dying, and it is impossible to be too constrained by the threat of hostages." The prince explained to Wei Ling briefly: "Especially that Prince Xuan, he would rather be killed by himself." If you die, your son will inherit the throne, and you don’t want to be punished for letting us go back to the country.”
Wei Ling thought for a while before she understood the meaning.
The prince said again: "Now, we may get 3,000 horses, but the other party wants to release General Chu. So I want to ask everyone's opinions."
Wei Ling noticed. When Shizi said this, it was not only his own gaze. There are also those of the sad autumn old man and Li Daochang's, all of which went to the girl he hated very much.
No way? She is so striking? General Wei's heart beats a drum.
"Leader Wei, let's talk." Wu Zhe spread his hands, "I like to take advantage of it, and I like to speak after other people's ideas, so that it is convenient to pick faults."
Everyone couldn't help but want to laugh when they heard it, how could they say it so clearly
But she said it so shamelessly, which made Wei Ling feel uncomfortable. Otherwise, it would be a bit like a plan to find fault with Xiao Ruoyao's idea without daring to speak out.
Shizi said: "In this way, everyone should briefly talk about their own ideas. One or two sentences should be concise and to the point, don't explain too much. Let's listen first and then judge together."
Wei Ling was the first to speak boldly, her words were sonorous and forceful: "I think even if the hostages are beaten to death, they can't be handed over! I don't believe they are willing to command Prince Xuan and Miss Chu to be executed face to face."
"..." Everyone looked at her speechlessly.
What a straightforward answer.
This is really an extremely simple idea.
But. Everyone can figure this out. If General Yang is here, he must be thinking like this.
Wei Ling's nine-star guard almost laughed out behind her, with a hard expression on his face.
What's the idea? Is it still necessary for you to come out? Although the guard didn't know how to make a decision, he knew that his hated master must have no brains.
Wu Zhe also laughed in his heart. Wei Ling has no chest, no idea and no brains. This idea is too bad, if it is adopted, it will definitely kill the prince.
"It makes sense." Shizi nodded, and turned to Daoist Li: "Daoist, what do you think?"
According to ordinary people's thinking, this is the time to look at Wu Zhe. But Shizi did not ask Wu Zhe to continue speaking, but instead asked Li Daochang, which shows how well he can control people's hearts.
Immediately after Wu Zhe was asked to speak, it was easy to create a tit-for-tat feeling, which was not conducive to the harmonious coexistence among subordinates. If the normal rule of the king is to let two powerful subordinates compete for power to achieve a balance of power, but now that they are in a tight siege, it is natural to work together to dominate.
Li Daochang twirled his beard and murmured: "What General Wei said is very true, I have to say that it is indeed the truth. It's just that Pindao feels that it is not appropriate to be so tough, lest the other party really die."
He is a transition. Li Daochang is worthy of being one of the think tanks. Although he can't reach the level of a high-level dog-headed military adviser, he also understands what the son means. It's not that he hopes to have any good strategies on his side, but hopes to have a buffer transition.
At the same time, Li Daochang woke up and said: "There may be something wrong with the 3,000 horses. I don't think they will be so easy to join the enemy. I'm afraid there are frauds among them."
"Perhaps the croton..." Shizi sighed.
"Crotou!" Wei Ling and the others exclaimed.
Wu Zhe smiled without saying a word, and praised in his heart that the prince has a lot of brains. Concubine Qi is a woman of extreme wisdom, and the son she gave birth to has very good genes.
"If we really got the croton, even if we got the horse, I'm afraid it would be of no use!" Wei Ling became anxious when she heard this.
Most of Shizi's troops still have horses, but there are not many cavalry and chariot masters.
Although the Xuanwu soldiers all have horses, Wei Ling knows that there are not many Xuanwu soldiers under her command at the same time. Although the combat power is the strongest, it is impossible to last for too long. So she still hopes that a large number of cavalry can reduce her burden.
Then came the sad old man, who scratched his head for a while before saying: "The old man only knows how to practice martial arts, but his brain is not enough, so he can't come up with too many fancy ideas. It's just that it's not easy to take advantage of it. What good is it for us to have horses?"
Now, Shi Zi and others all turned their attention to Wu Zhe.
Wu Zhe laughed and said, "What do you think I'm doing? I'm not a dog-headed military advisor."
Dog head army division? The sad autumn old man couldn't help but want to laugh. Isn't this title referring to Buddha Shuai
"Come on, you're the only one with a lot of ideas. Tell me quickly, and be careful that I'll deduct the monthly money of your Tianbo Mansion staff." The prince said haha.
"I want to be promoted to the rank of staff." Wu Zhe said the conditions.
"If you have a good idea, I will change your staff level from wood level to three levels of iron, copper, and silver to reach silver level staff."
"Screen staff?" Wu Zhe tilted his head and thought for a while: "Bah! I don't want it, this name is a big loss, can't I win?"
Wei Ling couldn't help laughing.
Her gag like this made everyone feel a lot more relaxed. Wei Ling didn't pay too much attention to Wu Zhe's suggestion anymore.
"Okay, okay, let's talk quickly, even if I give you a gold aide." The prince urged again.
"It's a deal!" Wu Zhe slapped his hands and said, "I negotiated the three thousand horses, so I knew the other party was going to make a move."
"Oh?" Everyone was surprised. She knew that the other party was going to make a move, so what did she want to do with the horse
"Hands and feet belong to hands and feet, but these three thousand horses have very important uses. Even if they really eat crotons, they still need reaction time, don't they? It's enough for us."
"Use? How to use it?" the old man in Beiqiu asked anxiously.
"When I entered the encirclement, I noticed that Wu Guo's army had already dug horse pits along the encirclement. If we broke through, these barbed pits would have to be filled with our lives."
The sad autumn old man and the others nodded. This is something that cannot be done in war. The vanguard of the former army will play such a role, and it is often a whole team of people who fill the trap.
Snapped! Shizi slapped his hands with joy on his face, expressing his understanding.
"Yeah, these horses are enough." Wu Zhe said with a smile: "There is another reason, which is the psychological factor."
"Psychological factors?"
"It's morale." Wu Zhe explained: "Have you thought about it? If you were to fight in a foreign country thousands of miles away, this would be a bloody and bloody battle without risking your life. But my vice-commander became the prince, and he didn't hesitate to capitalize on the enemy... "
Li Daochang smiled and said: "Haha, if it were me, although I understand in my heart, I must still be unconvinced!"
The sad autumn old man also said: "The more enemies you have, the more brothers you have to sacrifice."
"I see. There will indeed be an impact on morale, not even weaker than the impact of the leader being captured." The crown prince nodded and admitted.
"Also, if the other party asks to return Miss General Chu, I don't think it will be returned." Wu Zhe said with a smile.
Is it still not returned? Everyone nodded. This suggestion is correct. Although it cannot be said to be clichéd, it is also the safest.
However, even though they understood that this decision was correct, everyone was still slightly disappointed with Wu Zhe's advice.
But they never expected that what Wu Zhe said next shocked everyone.
"However, if we exchange 3,000 horses, it won't make sense if we don't return Miss Chu." Wu Zhe said surprisingly: "Then return it to Prince Xuan!" (To be continued...)
