After Spring and Autumn

Afterwards, Qi Jiangong’s younger brother, Lv Ao, was known as Qi Pinggong in history since he was the king of Qi, and Tian Chang took control of the power of Qi from then on, and at the same time cleaned up those officials who opposed him in Qi. turn around.

Before that, if it wasn't for Meng Di, Tian Chang would have done such a thing a long time ago, coupled with the recent war, it also caused him to do things timidly, now he got what he wanted, although his heart is happy, but There is also anxiety.

What Tian Chang is most worried about is what actions Han will take at this time, but his worries are obviously superfluous. Now the whole Han country is doing their best to deal with the severe epidemic in the south, although the situation has gradually been brought under control now.

However, many people died because of this. The genius doctor Bian Que found that the illness of these people seemed to be contagious to each other through some means, so he began to try to isolate the sick and the non-sick people.

At the same time, it is carefully recorded that the effect is very obvious, which greatly reduces the death rate, so that the epidemic situation can be gradually and effectively controlled, and Huaicheng is continuously transporting medicinal materials and supplies.

Under such circumstances, not only did there not appear to be riots in the land of Chu and Yue, but they were also full of gratitude for the official uniforms of the Han Dynasty. As the epidemic stabilized, many famous people in many places jointly signed a letter.

On the one hand, they commended the local government, and on the other hand, they asked to build temples for Bian Que in various places. At the same time, they also built a Hanwang Temple by the Yangtze River to express their gratitude.

After Mengdi got the news, he also let out a sigh of relief. Anyway, this time it was a blessing in disguise. Not only did he control the epidemic, but he also gained the hearts of the people in the land of Chu and Yue. However, he will face a big problem next.

That's how the Northern Expedition happened. Now the imperial court is divided into two factions. One faction, represented by Bai Gui and Chen He, believes that they should take every step of the way, first take down the surrounding small vassal states, and finally concentrate on dealing with Jin.

However, officials represented by Sun Wu and Wu Qi believed that Jin should be taken first at this time. If this is the case, if they attack other exporting countries, the resistance they encounter will be weakened.

Because these vassal states have no reliance to rely on, they will have no confidence to resist. This will reduce the loss of the Han State. Both strategies have their own advantages and disadvantages. If they are steady and steady, there will be no major problems. .

But there is a serious disadvantage, that is, it takes a long time, and it consumes huge financial, material and manpower. If you concentrate your strength to attack Jin, the advantage is that the time is relatively short, and the terrain of Jin is very important.

After taking this place, you can directly enter the land of the Central Plains to the south, and directly attack the Yan Kingdom to the north, and you can rely on the dangers of the mountains and rivers to defend, but there is a very serious problem, that is, once you lose.

Then if the Han State wants to attack the Jin State again, it will take a long time to recuperate, and it is even very likely that it will never be able to send troops to the Jin State again. In fact, this issue does not have the meaning of discussion in Meng Di’s view. .

Because he believed in the vision of Sun Wu and Wu Qi more, and now that the epidemic has just ended, it will take several years to recover, because in the land of Chuyue alone, there are not a few aid materials that are needed.

Moreover, it is not convenient for him to directly come forward to make a decision at this time. The main reason is that he thinks that the time is not yet come, and at the same time, he also wants to see the loss of Ji Ran, an influential person in both military and political terms.

Where will the court of the Han Dynasty go, so Mengdi kept silent, that is, at this time he transferred the language of Kuaiji to Huaicheng. The person who counts.

Although Wu Qi said his ability was good, but his personal character was a bit worrying, and there were no other shortcomings. Chen He was too conservative, and it was not appropriate to use him when he was entering.

In fact, Sun Wu is a suitable candidate, but he is already old. Meng Di transferred Wenzhong here just to meet and talk with him. If it is suitable, he will replace Sun Wu in the future.

Also let the old God of War come back to rest for a while, Meng Di started to pay attention to this kind of thing after Ji Ran passed away.

Half a month later, Wen Zhong rushed to Huaicheng, and felt that he was coming to meet him the next day.

Meng Di specially chose to hold the banquet in the back garden, which made it less formal and allowed the conversation to go deeper. Wen Zhong is also a caring person, and when he came to the back garden, the expression on his face changed slightly.

After seeing his expression, Meng Di just smiled lightly and spoke directly.

"I invite you to come here today, on the one hand, to discuss the upcoming major events in the world, and on the other hand, I want to ask you, what do you think about the future affairs of the Han Kingdom?"

After hearing this, Wen Zhong showed a look of panic on his face, and hurriedly got up to salute.

"My subordinate is nothing more than a surrender. Not only does the King of Han not blame him, but he also entrusts him with a heavy responsibility. I am already grateful in my heart. If the King of Han has any orders, I will go through fire and water without hesitation."

These words not only showed his attitude, but also expressed his willingness to serve Han. Mengdi nodded in satisfaction after listening, then waved his hand to signal him to sit down, and said with a smile on his face.

"Since we are chatting privately, we don't need to stick to common etiquette. Just like friends, we open our hearts and say it. It doesn't matter even if we say something wrong. It's out of your mouth and into my ear, and there will be no other people. Know."

At this time, Wen Zhong thought for a moment, then raised his head with a serious look on his face.

"Since the king of Han has the ambition to swallow the world, why is he still staying in Huai City? Although this is the place where the king of Han rose, it is not a suitable place to build a capital, regardless of the mountainous terrain or humanistic features."

After Mengdi heard this, he nodded with a smile. He was a little emotional, raised his head slightly and thought for a while and said.

"Sure enough, the heroes have the same views. Mr. Ji mentioned this matter when he was still there. He thought that there are two most suitable places to build capitals in the world today. One is Luoyi and the other is Liyang, but it was just a discussion at that time. "

"Because these two places not only have the geographical danger of mountains and rivers, but are basically located in the Central Plains, but in comparison, Luoyi is relatively more suitable, but it has not yet reached this time, even if you want to Jiandu will have to wait a while."
