Call of Heroes: A History Only I Know

Chapter 112 Discuss with grandson, destroy Chu with a flick of a finger! (seeking subscription)
With the support of King Liao of Wu, Su Che's position was promoted from Da Situ to Tai Zai.

Dazai, this is the Heavenly Official, the head of the Six Ministers, in charge of the affairs of the country.

This is truly a person who is under one person and above ten thousand people, and the right to speak is not comparable to that of Da Situ.

The first step in the reform presided over by Dazai Su Che was to attack Wu Wangliao's three cousins.

The three sons were taken back their privileges, the city, and all the wealth in the treasury.

The reason why this raid was so smooth.

One reason is that princes seldom attack senior officials, and there was no such precedent before.

The second reason is that this is a sudden attack, and it is an act of lack of "propriety". In this era, few people use troops like this.

It's ridiculous to say that it's obvious that etiquette has collapsed, but in this era, many people still practice etiquette on the battlefield.

no doubt.

This time, the sudden attack, the sudden strike, directly knocked the three young masters into a daze.

They never thought that there would be such a person without martial ethics who came to attack them unexpectedly!

On Su Che's side, Young Master Guang is the most unacceptable. He has always been looking forward to being able to take the position of King Wu. Able to ascend to the throne of King Wu.

However, with this surprise attack, all these beautiful illusions were shattered, and it was also doomed that he would never be able to ascend to the throne of King Wu. If this is the case, what's the point of continuing to live?

Young Master Guang went to die calmly, but the other two young masters did not have such ambition. Although they lost everything, as the cousins ​​of King Wu, they could still be leisurely young masters, at least with no worries about food and clothing.

Even in this era, the opinion of most ordinary people is still that it is better to be alive than dead.

The military power of the three sons was recovered, and all the treasury in the treasury was collected into the treasury, which directly enriched the treasury, and at the same time, the military force controlled by Wu Wangliao was further expanded.

With so much more troops in his hands, King Liao Wu had more confidence in his speech.

He directly issued an order to all the high officials in the state of Wu——

"Reforms are imperative. The state of Wu must go through reforms to become strong! Anyone who opposes the reforms is the sinner of the state of Wu!"

If Young Master Guang is still alive.

As soon as these words came out, Young Master Guang would probably stand up.

Because the time is ripe, he has to stand up and become a role model for all the high officials in the state of Wu.

He would say to King Liao of Wu in a righteous and stern manner:

"The Son of Heaven has no right to interfere with the princes, and the princes have no right to interfere with the high officials. This is the common principle of the world. What you are doing today is an act of treason and injustice!"

It's a pity that such a good opportunity, the son who has already burped, just can't see it.

He was preempted by Su Che and directly took him down. Unable to accept it, he committed suicide by touching his neck.

The fact that the three young masters have nothing, is undoubtedly a shock. All the high officials in the state of Wu trembled and did not dare to say anything more.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Su Che wrote directly.

He said to King Liao of Wu, "The time has come. Since none of the high officials and high officials in the state of Wu dare to disobey, let's take this opportunity to take back all their military power!"

Wu Wangliao subconsciously asked: "What if there are people who don't obey?"

Su Che said lightly: "Those who don't obey, kill them!"

Wu Wangliao narrowed his eyes, nodded and said, "That's it!"

Originally, Wu Wangliao was worried about the failure of the reform, and the situation became very bad. Now that it is going so smoothly, it is natural to make drastic changes and continue the reform!
As long as all of Wu's military power is taken back, his power will be concentrated again and he will become the real talker of Wu.

It turned out that Su Che only abolished the hereditary titles of some people, and all the soldiers and civilians were rewarded for their merits, which caused an uproar and countless protests.

At this moment, as soon as the order to withdraw the military power was issued, the whole country of Wu was in an uproar, and Dr. Youqing swore to die and rebelled directly.

From their point of view, if they lost their military power, they would be lambs waiting to be slaughtered in this country of Wu!
There are also some people who adhere to the ancient rituals and think that being deprived of military power is more serious than killing them, so even if they die, they will not obey.

Faced with this situation, Su Che would naturally not show mercy.

Since you want to die, let you die!
Kill directly!

If people's heads are not killed, and their blood flows into rivers, then this reform will never be carried out perfectly.

Temporary compromise, in return will always be the other party's progress.

Only by killing a bloody path and killing them so that they dare not speak again, can the reform be carried out smoothly.

How can a change without bloodshed be called a change?

At this moment, there are such famous generals as Sun Wu, Wu Zixu, and Su Che in the state of Wu, and this group of resisting high officials is basically like a mantis fighting a cart with his arms, hitting a stone with an egg.

There is a way to kill!

a few days later.

In a small city.

Su Che had just breached here, and at the moment of attacking, Doctor Qing committed suicide directly, and his retainers also committed suicide.

After Su Che entered this small city, almost everyone looked at him with hateful eyes, as if they wanted to eat him.

With the progress of the reform, Fanzi, whose reputation was still good, deteriorated rapidly almost visible to the naked eye during this period.

Fan Li has become synonymous with treacherous officials, and his reputation is so bad that even Yue and Chu can hear it.

The essence of the reform proposed by Su Che is centralization.

But there is no doubt that this directly offended the senior officials to death, they wished they could swallow Su Che alive.

It is precisely a group of people like them who often have the right to speak.

What do you low-level farts know?

Su Che's policies are very good to the people at the bottom, allowing them to eat well, wear warm clothes, and even occasionally eat meat.

All the civilians are grateful to Fan Zi and regard him as a sage, but the problem is that they don't even know the words and have no right to speak at all.

In ancient times, the term "people's hearts" often refers to the powerful class, those who have read books, because they can make their own voices.

As for the common people at the bottom, what can this group of Qianshou and ordinary people understand? ?

They are the bottom of the society and the exploited class, so why should we treat them well?

Instead, let the aristocratic class such as officials and scholar-bureaucrats suffer?

What's the point of this?
This group of vested interests doesn't feel that they have done anything wrong.

Their existence is a rule that has been passed down for so many years since the establishment of the Zhou Dynasty.

Every senior official has been a relative of the emperor for generations-the relatives of the emperor were named princes, and the relatives of the princes were named senior officials.

They have rich stomachs, their ancestors have already done all their work, and they just need to lie on the credit book and enjoy it. This is a tradition that has lasted for so many years, and it is a status quo that has not changed for many years.

Why are they losing it all now?Why? !

For these high officials, isn't Fan Li, who took everything away from them, synonymous with treachery?

From their point of view, there is nothing wrong with it!

Fan Li, a commoner from the Chu region, was humble at heart. With his own reputation, he was highly regarded by the King of Wu, but he didn't take it back. Instead, he bewitched the King of Wu and asked him to attack the nobles in the country. How evil is it to kill each other, brothers to kill each other, and persecute other high officials.

It is normal for such an evil existence to be stared at by this group of people.

But Su Che didn't take it seriously, he glanced at the group of people, and said with a sneer, "Wu Guo's affairs are up to me, and I'm doing it now, who would dare not obey?"

As soon as the words came out.

Immediately someone stood up: "The affairs of the Wu state are in the hands of the King of Wu, and you are in the hands of your high officials. You? You are just a traitor, so what should you do?"

Su Che drew out his sword, and said indifferently, "Would you like to test whether my sword is sharp?"

This person also cooperated, and then drew out his sword, and said coldly: "My sword is not bad either!"

"well said!"

Su Che laughed loudly, and went straight with his sword!
He is not Dong Zhuo, and you are not worthy of being Yuan Shao! !
Su Che's movements were quick, and he pressed on him in an instant. This person had no room to react, and his head was directly chopped off by a sword, and he didn't even have a chance to block the sword.

This big head rolled on the ground, and kept rolling on the ground. Everyone showed fearful eyes and looked at Su Che in horror.

All along, Su Che flaunted his morality to convince others in Wu country, but they didn't even see the action clearly, and the person next to him was killed!
Such fast movements, such agility, and such strong swordsmanship! !
"This sword is my 'virtue' sword. I am good at convincing people with virtue. If you are still dissatisfied, then ask the 'virtue' sword in my hand!" Su Che held the sword in his hand, calmly said with a smile.

I saw that this sharp sword had clearly killed a person, but there was no trace of blood on it, and it was still as clean as new. This scene made people feel chills down the spine—killing without blood, this kind of swordsmanship is almost magical!
In this era, those great sages and sages are not the ones with no hands, they are all unbelievably fierce, they are existences with extraordinary force!
Among the six arts of a gentleman, martial arts account for one-third.

All of them are ruthless people who are willing to be kind and hateful.

For example, Confucius, he is said to be able to lift the city gate, so powerful that it is equivalent to the overlord lifting a tripod.

Ran You, a disciple of Confucius, once helped the Ji clan lead troops to fight and won the final victory.

Ji was very puzzled, don't your Confucianists emphasize benevolence, righteousness and morality, and talk about scriptures and reasoning?How can you lead troops to fight?

So he asked Ran You where he learned strategic knowledge, and Ran You replied: "I learned it from Confucius."

"Book of Rites Tan Gong [-]" records that one day Zixia asked Confucius: What should I do if my parents are killed?
Confucius replied: Whenever you meet an enemy, no matter where he is, kill him on the spot!

This is an era of powerful force.

For a ruthless person like Su Che, who is honored as Fan Zi by the world, if he loses face in terms of force, it is really a shame!
Speaking of which, Su Che's "virtue" sword also has some stories.

Originally, Su Che wanted to use a gun as a weapon, but a big guy like him, holding a gun all day, like a soldier, is really ugly.

In this era, the saber is more chic.

But those ordinary swords are not easy to use at all, they are too ordinary.

So Su Che spent a lot of money and hired a famous craftsman from the Yue Kingdom to forge a sword for himself.

This master is a Fujian craftsman who lives in the Oujiang River Basin, and his name is Ouye.

Of course, some people called him "Ou Yezi".

In this era, the existences who are honored as sons after their names are all bigwigs in a certain way.

This Ou Ye is a bigwig in the foundry field, so he is honored as Ou Yezi.

His name may not be so impressive, but his daughter, son-in-law, has impressed many people.

His daughter is called Moye, and his son-in-law is called Ganjiang.

And the works he forged are also famous!
His smelted works include: Zhanlu, Chunjun, Shengxie, Yuchang, Juque.

Later, at the invitation of Feng Huzi, he and his wife went to Chu to cast the three swords of Longyuan, Tai'a and Gongbu for the king of Chu.

Ou Yezi was asked by Fan Zi of Wu State to make a sword, and he readily agreed to forge a "virtuous" sword for Su Che.

To be honest, he really couldn't bear to look at the high standard of being named after Ou Zhizi, a name like "De".

Who would name their sword "De"?This is so strange!

Zhanlu, Chunjun, Shengxie, Yuchang, Juque... how nice are these names?
But helplessly, Su Che was his number one benefactor, and after spending a lot of money, he let him go.

With this virtuous sword in hand, Su Che's many sword techniques have room to display.

now……

Everyone looked at this virtuous sword, and they all thought in astonishment, Fan Zi said that he used virtue to convince people... this virtuous sword?
This seems to be different from what they imagined!
Fan Zi is too cruel, not only is he ruthless, but also his swordsmanship is too powerful!

None of them spoke.

After all, those hard stubbles died long ago with Doctor Qing Ji committing suicide, and those who have survived until now are basically soft bones.

The only one who could speak hard was also killed by Su Che.

After this person died, this group of people no longer dared to look at Su Che with rebellious eyes.

Seeing that this group of people no longer dared to look at him, Su Che didn't care what they thought.

Su Che said lightly: "I don't care what you are thinking, as long as you can cooperate with the reform, then it doesn't matter what you think."

"I need you to know that your thoughts are not important. Reform is Wu's top priority. You just need to cooperate!"

"Nowadays, in the whole country of Wu, there is no power of a doctor, only the king of Wu!"

"Reform, reform, this is a torrent, and those who stand in it will die!"

"You should all have seen the fate of not cooperating!"

"Did you hear that?"

"Do you understand?"

As soon as these words came out, the group of people could only give in and responded, "Understood."

Su Che turned around and left gracefully.

this time.

The turmoil in Wu State is a good opportunity for the surrounding Chu State.

Logically speaking, they should take advantage of the internal turmoil in Wu to attack the country of Wu, cooperate with Doctor Qing's turmoil, and deal a heavy blow to the country of Wu!
Once that happens, then Wu Guo's reform will definitely not proceed so smoothly, and it will definitely be very uncomfortable.

Unfortunately, however...

At this time, the king of Chu was dying of illness and was about to die. The state of Chu became chaotic first, and had no time to manage the internal strife in the state of Wu. This directly gave the state of Wu an excellent opportunity to carry out reforms!

Of course.

This is exactly the reform that Su Che carried out just now when he saw this opportunity.

The current state of Wu has only one opponent, the state of Chu, and now the state of Chu is too busy to take care of itself. The state of Yue has not turned against it, nor has it made any moves, but has issued a voice of condemnation.

Not only the State of Yue, but other big countries in the Central Plains saw Wu's reform, and the first thought was not to follow the reform, but to condemn Wu's ignorance and atrocities, and morally reprimand Wu Wangliao for his immoral behavior.

This is probably like a previous life, when a certain country did something amazing and was condemned wildly by international public opinion.

This kind of condemnation is actually very useful in the era of the Warring States Period. After all, everyone's skin is not so thick, and it is easy to cause bad influence.

Even Wu Wangliao lost his position for a while when facing the snowflakes of condemnation from all countries.

He was very worried. If he didn't give a reasonable explanation, it would undoubtedly make Wu the target of public criticism among the countries, and even be attacked by other countries as an excuse!

The clever Wu Wangliao realized the seriousness of the matter, but he didn't know how to solve it for a while, which made him very distressed.

When Su Che returned to the court with a large group of troops, Wu Wangliao hurriedly came to the gate of the capital to greet him.

The King of Wu welcomed Dazai's return in person. Su Che was stunned by the battle. When did he become so prestigious?
Generally speaking, he should go to see Wu Wangliao instead of Wu Wangliao personally coming to the gate of the city to greet him!

Is this what happened?

Su Che still knew King Liao of Wu very well.

Sure enough, when Wu Wangliao got into Su Che's carriage, he couldn't wait to talk out this difficult problem: "Our Wu country reformed, although domestic protests were suppressed by you, Sun Wu, and Wu Zixu, but foreign voices should be suppressed." How to deal with it?"

"Voices from abroad? Has the news of our reform spread so quickly?" Su Che said with some surprise.

"It's natural. As early as after Young Master Guang committed suicide and all powers of the other two Young Masters were cancelled, the news was unstoppable and inevitably spread." Wu Wangliao said slowly: "Now our country of Wu is in turmoil. , you are suppressing everywhere, the commotion is getting bigger, all countries are condemning us..."

"If they condemn it, just condemn it." Su Che doesn't care, it's just condemnation, what is it?
"They will not only condemn, but if we don't respond and give them a reasonable explanation, they will even use this as an excuse to attack us, cut off our business routes, and cut off all ties with us." Wu Wangliao said seriously Said.

"Is that so..." Su Che was taken aback for a moment after hearing this, then nodded and said, "Then give them a response."

"But how should we respond? Our reform must continue... The matter has reached this point, and it is impossible to turn back." Wu Wangliao said with some headaches: "How should I give an explanation to the countries and give them Can you give me a satisfactory answer?"

"Sir, do you have any ideas?" Wu Wangliao glanced at Su Che and asked with some expectation.

In his opinion, if it was Su Che, there must be a solution, right?

Don't say it.

It really does.

Su Che nodded, and whispered a few words in Wu Wangliao's ear.

After Wu Wangliao heard this, his eyes widened... Can it still be like this?Still have this kind of operation? !
Think carefully.

It's really wonderful!

A few days later.

When the reform of Wu State was in full swing.

The protests of the vassal states are also in full swing, and their voices are getting louder and louder.

Just when every one of them was spitting stars, and they were about to drown King Liao of Wu.

Wu Wangliao finally responded to the vassal states.

King Liao of Wu said, "I am also a barbarian!"

As soon as these words came out, the monarchs of the vassal states were speechless.

These simple four words directly choked back all the voices of condemnation.

I'm a barbarian and I don't know how to be polite, so why do you still blame me for carrying out these reforms?
In fact, this sentence was said a long time ago by the monarch of Chu State.

At that time, the vassal states surnamed Ji in the Central Plains believed that they were of noble blood, and looked down on Qin and Chu, which were not located in the Central Plains, and regarded them as barbarians.

Chu State's resentment for this unfair treatment can be said to be all over the history books.

However, Xiong Qu, the king of Chu State, turned this discrimination into the advantage of Chu State, obtained greater benefits by virtue of his own strength, and became the most successful country in annexing territories during the Spring and Autumn Period.

But now, King Liao of Wu actually imitated the king of Chu, and said such a sentence, which directly left the kings of the vassal states speechless.

The reason is very simple. Although Chu State is a barbarian, Wu State, like Chu State, is located in a remote place and belongs to the territory of southern barbarians, but the blood of Wu State's monarch is Zheng Miaohong, the root of the eight classics!
As early as before the establishment of the Zhou Dynasty, Zhou Taiwang, who was only the king of princes, had a headache when faced with the question of the candidate for the crown prince before he passed away.

His youngest son is very wise, and the youngest son's son, Ji Chang, is even more intelligent, and he is a hero at first glance.

Compared with the two stupid sons, he hopes to hand over the throne to the youngest son.

But the problem is, although these two sons are not good enough, they are honest and honest. If there is no reason, it is a way to kill the elders and establish the younger ones.

When the two knew what Zhou Taiwang wanted, they didn't fight for the throne, but left on their own initiative.

The two went to the south and settled down in a small seaside town. When Zhou Taiwang and his younger brother died, they did not stand up to fight for the throne.

The throne fell to Ji Chang smoothly. Through the efforts of Ji Chang and the governance of his son Ji Fa, the country became stronger and stronger, and finally directly attacked the Shang Dynasty under the rule of the tyrant King Zhou. After the Battle of Muye, the Yin Shang was defeated. , King Zhou set himself on fire in Lutai, and the Zhou Dynasty was established.

After the establishment of the Zhou Dynasty, Ji Fa searched for the two descendants of his great-grandfather, and finally found their descendants in Wudi. They had taken root in Wudi and became local leaders.

Ever since, Zhou Wuwang Jifa pushed the boat along the river and enfeoffed the land of Wu to them, making them princes and kings with the surname Ji.

Of course.

This dusty history is most likely fabricated by the monarch of the Wu Kingdom, in order to prove that his blood is pure Ji blood, not the king of barbarians.

But no matter it was fabricated or true, this statement did allow the previous Wu State to gain a firm foothold among the vassal states of the Central Plains.

However, now it's time for the reform, King Wu, who has always claimed to be the vassal king with the surname Ji, tore off his mask: Stop pretending, it's a showdown, and I'm a barbarian!

This directly left the other princes and kings speechless.

Look at how the children are being forced... The princes and kings with the dignified Ji's surname were all forced to say that they are barbarians!
At this time, what else can you blame King Wu for?

This kind of feeling is like when playing a game, your teammates are not performing well, and the operation is overwhelmed. You were just about to criticize him, but he took the initiative to say: I am too bad, I am too rubbish!

At this time, do you still have the nerve to spray him again?
Naturally, it is not easy to spray.

At this moment, King Wu said this sentence: "I am also a barbarian."

There are similarities in the same effect.

This directly blocked Yoyo's mouth.

The monarchs of the vassal states can't say anything more.

King Ping of Chu, who was dying of illness in Chu State next to Wu State, laughed happily after hearing the news: "Sure enough, he is a barbarian like me, what kind of wolf with a big tail is he usually pretending to be, hahaha...cough cough !"

At this moment, the monarchs of the vassal states obviously have not realized the seriousness of the problem...

After all, Wu's reformation is the first time since the beginning of the world. Although the monarchs of other countries are curious, they have no intention of following suit.

After all, not every country, like Wu, has the conditions for political reform.

This is not just a question of courage, but also a question of strength.

Without this strength, daring to reform and innovate will probably not make the country strong, but will cause them to be boycotted by the whole country and eventually lose their throne.

Wu country.

Wu Wangliao found Su Che and said overjoyedly, "Tazai, you really gave me a good idea. After I said that, no one would dare to scold me again."

"I'm a barbarian!"

"This reason is really good!"

"When you told me, I was still a little hesitant, and I was too embarrassed to say that..."

"But after thinking about it, although our country of Wu has always advertised that we are princes and kings with the surname Ji, the group of dogs still treat us as barbarians! I am really mad!"

"Now I use this reason to directly block their mouths. I am a barbarian, so leave me alone!!"

King Liao of Wu was very happy. In recent days, with the continuous reforms in the country, all the troops of the high officials came into the hands of the king.

I don't know the unchanging method, but I was shocked when I changed the method!
Originally, Wu Wangliao's army was at most 2 people - this is the normal state of the princes and kings, the army is basically this number, and it will not exceed too much.

After all, most of the land of the princes and kings has been divided up by the officials. The princes and kings simply do not have so many troops to fight, nor can they afford to support too many troops.

Even a Spring and Autumn overlord like Duke Huan of Qi had no more than [-] troops.When Duke Wen of Jin ruled the hegemony, his army strength was no more than [-].The other middle-level princes have only a few thousand to [-] to [-] troops.

But now, when the power of the entire Wu Kingdom came into the hands of Wu Wangliao, the number of soldiers directly exceeded 15!
Even under the suggestion of Su Che and Sun Wu, the army of the national soldiers and the army of the doctor are mixed, and then the harsh military training is carried out, the unqualified soldiers are eliminated, and the soldiers who can be ordered and prohibited are left. The army owned by the state of Wu still has As many as twelve or thirty thousand!
A strong army, absolute power, and stronger national power, this is the essence of the reform!

This is also a symbolic change from the Spring and Autumn Period to the Warring States Period-reform!
There are those who do not change the law in all countries, and all of them have become tears of the times!
And this is just the beginning of the reform, and the state of Wu can continue to grow stronger.

This made Wu Wangliao very excited. He believed that if it continued, Wu would soon become the overlord of the vassal states, and he would be able to parade at the feet of the emperor by then!
In fact, Su Che could probably guess Wu Wangliao's hopeless idea. After all, this is the limitation of the times. It is normal to think that there is no alternative.

Being able to become an overlord is the dream of many princes in their lives. After all, even Xiang Yu, who said this sentence, only wanted to become an overlord.

Su Che didn't say anything about this aspect. The times are advancing, and what should come will eventually come.

Following the purge of Wu's army, Su Che also started his own administration of officials.

First of all, rectify the ranks of officials, strengthen the assessment and supervision of officials, and at the same time tap talented people to improve the administrative efficiency of the entire country.

Many incompetent officials were eliminated and swept into the dust of history without mercy!

And virtuous talents, like crucian carp crossing the river, continue to emerge.

Not only are talented people constantly appearing in the state of Wu, but also talented people from other vassal states have come to the state of Wu to show off their strengths.

In this era, due to the problem of identity, in many countries, there will still be the problem of not being able to become an official.

For example, Chu State, which has already set in the west.

The talents from the bottom should be more pragmatic, and their solutions to things should be simpler, which is exactly what Su Che needs.

With the progress of the reform, the grassroots officials in the entire Wu State can be described as completely new, and the whole country is full of vitality and develops extremely rapidly.

The original Wu State had many problems because of its remote location.

For example, they are often invaded by rivers and sea water, and the land is repeatedly flooded. Every year, people are displaced by floods.

Another example is the military defense facilities in various places, which are not perfect, and are often vulnerable to invasion by other countries.

In addition, there is no national granary in various places. Once natural disasters occur, famine will appear, and land abandonment is not uncommon. People's lives are not guaranteed at all.

During Su Che's tenure as Da Situ and Dazai, although he has been constantly improving these problems, his strength alone is limited.

Moreover, the policies that he promoted to benefit the people were often obstructed by those ministers.

It is difficult for him to implement the decree to perfection, because it cannot be conveyed to all parts of Wu.

But even so, the situation in Wu country is still booming-this shows how bad the previous situation was.

But now, with the officials being completely governed by Su Che, the implementation of government orders will no longer be hindered, which makes the situation in various parts of the Wu Kingdom change with each passing day.

The property and food obtained from Dr. Wu Guoqing are used to improve the living environment of Wu people and attract talents from all over the world. It is a win-win situation-only Doctor Qing loses.

However, even though the original officials complained a lot and almost scolded people like Fan Li, Sun Wu, and Wu Zixu, they still couldn't stop Wu from becoming stronger rapidly.

The people at the bottom of Wu State are very cooperative with Su Che's various policies. In their opinion, there is no better Dazai in this world than Fan Zi.

Dazai really cared about them, not treating them like pariahs.

In addition to the administration of officials and the administration of the people, Su Che also valued and encouraged the development of the weapons industry. He spent thousands of dollars to ask Ou Yezi to serve as Wu Guoye's iron order.

This is a new position set up by Su Che. He is the leader who specializes in the manufacture of weapons and has a lot of power to speak.

And Ou Yezi also lived up to Su Che's expectations, and successfully turned the country of Wu, which was backward in the smelting and casting industry, into a powerful country in the smelting and casting industry, and each sword received numerous praises from abroad.

In addition to wantonly smelting and casting weapons, Su Che also encouraged the manufacture of strong bows and armor, which is a big expenditure, that is, Su Che took out the beach drying method and produced a large amount of salt, otherwise the poor and remote Wu The country really can't afford the cost.

Large-scale manufacture of armor, bows and arrows, crossbows, and a large number of spears.

This is what to do... of course it goes without saying.

Now that the state of Chu is in decline, when King Ping of Chu dies, it will be the best chance for Wu to annex Chu!
The clever Wu Zixu naturally saw this.

He came to Dazai's mansion very excitedly, and asked Su Che: "Mr. Dazai, when will we do it?"

"Don't worry, there is a saying in the art of war: Know the enemy and know yourself, and you will never be imperiled in a hundred battles." Su Che said slowly: "When the time is right, it will happen naturally."

At this moment, he is playing chess with Sun Wu, Su Che is playing white, Sun Wu is playing black, both of them are not bad in chess, and they are inseparable for a while.

Sun Wu's eyes lit up immediately when he heard Su Che's words: "A man who knows the enemy and a confidant can never be imperiled in a hundred battles. This sentence sums it up really well. I don't know the name of the military book Dazai read? I haven't read it yet." !"

As a master of military art, Sun Wu has almost read all the art of war in this world. He has never heard of the source of Su Che's saying "know the enemy and know yourself, and you will never be imperiled in a hundred battles". It can be said that his military philosophy is very consistent, and it suits his appetite very much!
Su Che glanced at Sun Wu, and was speechless for a while, this... This is embarrassing.

Knowing your enemy and knowing yourself, winning a hundred battles without danger comes from Sun Tzu's Art of War, and this book is the evolution of Sun Wu's "Thirteen Art of War". Although Sun Wu has written the theme outline of "Thirteen Art of War", there is no Thoroughly perfect.

Su Che said casually: "This is just a remnant that I came across from an ancient book that has been lost."

"Remnants of ancient books that have been lost?" Sun Wu heard this, and said with some regret: "That's really a pity."

"I have dabbled in the art of war, maybe we can discuss it." Su Che looked at Sun Wu and said with a smile.

"Master Dazai actually knows the art of war?" Sun Wu was a little surprised.

"Naturally!" Su Che smiled.

Since ancient times, truly awesome characters have been omnipotent, and Su Che is no exception. He has summed up all the wisdom of the predecessors and future generations together with the art of war. Compared with people, he is much worse, but if he only uses theory to talk, he may not be sure to lose!
"I want to ask you a question or two, are you noncommittal?" Sun Wu hurriedly saluted and asked respectfully.

Su Che nodded, and only said one word: "Yes!"

During this period of time, Su Che's reforms have entered a stable stage, and the restrictions on the nobles' privileges for senior officials have also been written into the decree. Lots of rest time.

It is naturally not a problem to discuss the art of war with Sun Wu.

Afterwards, Su Che and Sun Wu had a heated discussion, and they conducted in-depth discussions in various fields of warfare.

Strategies, forces, backup, reality, terrain, spies... There are simply not too many aspects involved in war.

Su Che's understanding of Zhanyi is definitely not as good as Sun Wu's, but his vision is very broad, and he has seen not too many things, which Sun Wu can't compare to.

Therefore, some of Su Che's ideas and some unconstrained opinions are like treasures to Sun Wu.

And Sun Wu's understanding of war and his explanation of the way to use soldiers also benefited Su Che a lot.

The two talked about it for a whole day and night, and Wu Zixu listened carefully for a whole day and night.

Not only did Sun Wu and Su Che benefit a lot, but Wu Zixu, who was listening by the side, also benefited a lot.

Although the two discussed intensely and deeply, some words he could not understand at all, but this did not prevent Wu Zixu from memorizing these words and slowly understanding the content of the conversation later.

With the end of the discussion, the three had a big meal.

At this time, someone from the intelligence department sent the latest news from Chu State.

Under Su Che's organization, the salt peddlers in Wu Kingdom are not just merchants, they also work as spies. They are all carefully selected by Su Che.

As the merchants in Wu State were selling sea salt and salt bricks, various news spread to Wu State along with those vendors selling sea salt.

This is a mature intelligence system network. Although it is difficult to inquire about in-depth information, even so, the information is still valuable!

During the Spring and Autumn and Warring States period, there was no separate intelligence agency.

The role of this task is mostly played by strategists and military agents, as well as diners of various princes.

At this time, there were already strategists, but their reputation was mediocre, and they could be regarded as the embryonic form of a world-famous strategist in later generations.

And now, Su Che created this intelligence department for the first time in all countries, which is also in response to his words.

"Know the enemy and know yourself, and you will never be imperiled in a hundred battles!"

Sun Wu and Su Che carefully looked at the content of the information.

This piece of information is urgent information, and it has been rushed back day and night, and it is very critical information.

I saw that the information said——

Just yesterday.

King Ping of Chu died...

The time has come!

Su Che smiled slightly, and threw the information to Wu Zixu.

When Wu Zixu saw him, his eyes widened immediately, and he said angrily, "This bastard died just like that! How cheap he is!"

"Destroy Chu..."

Su Che casually flipped the Yushang double-eared jade cup from Chudi on the table, and the remaining liquor slowly flowed on the table.

"At this moment, the state of Chu is extremely decayed, full of barbarians, and people's livelihood is dying. It can be destroyed with a snap of a finger!"

When Wu Zixu heard this, his eyes lit up, looking forward to it.

Sun Wu didn't change his expression, his emotions were very restrained. Although he was looking forward to flexing his muscles in the next battle, he didn't show any expressions of joy or anger.
