Dressed as the Queen Mother to grasp the script of a strong country

Chapter 10 The Death of Wang Yuan
In Dajin Military Camp

The sun was shining brightly, and everyone cheered.Liang Meng, Prince Li, Prince Su, and the eldest prince stood in front of the open space of the military camp. The table was filled with weapons. Prince Yong picked up the newly made jade ring, looked at it carefully, and then put it on his thumb, which was already covered with thick calluses. Above, he picked up the newly improved bow, stretched the bowstring vertically, and shot into the air.

"Brother Ten, the tension of this bowstring is much greater than before, and the elasticity of this rod..." Joy said, then picked up the arrow with feathers and put it on the bow. "I wonder how powerful this newly made arrow is."

After speaking, the bow and arrow swished across the sky, and the arrow was finally inserted into the red heart of the target. After everyone saw this scene, they remembered a burst of applause and cheers.

"Good arrows..." "From now on, Daijin's bows and arrows will be sent to Wuxufa," Prince Li said.

"How is the transformation of the war horse going?" the eldest prince asked impatiently.

"Prince Jing, look," Prince Li said, pointing to the warrior who was riding a horse.There were constant soldiers passing by on war horses, their movements smooth and skillful.

"Stirrings, saddles, the soldiers are extremely stable on the horse. I, the warrior of Dajin, are no longer afraid of falling off the horse and dying," said the eldest prince, Prince Jing.

"Bring me the improved armor quickly."Prince Yong said.

Seeing that the iron in his hand could be entangled to form a battle armor, Prince Yong couldn't wait to let the soldiers put on the armor to test the defensive power of the armor.

"In these evil times, no one objects to testing arrows on live people." Liang Meng thought to himself. If he hadn't had confidence in his improved armor, he would have stopped people testing arrows on people.

Prince Yong picked up the arrow and shot towards the armor.Everyone was deeply worried about whether the improved armor could withstand Prince Yong's bow and arrows.

"This armor is lighter in weight than the previous armor. I wonder if its defensive power is as good as patch armor," Prince Su said doubtfully.

While Prince Su was speaking, the bow and arrow had already left his hand and headed towards the warrior.

The soldier made a muffled sound, and then saw the bow and arrow bounce back to the ground. The soldier picked up the bow and arrow excitedly, "The bow and arrow did not penetrate, my subordinate is fine."

The crowd cheered.

Liang Mengzai felt incredible when he saw that he was just talking on paper, while Daikin's excellent blacksmiths had already produced it as quickly as possible. "The people who have no human rights in Daikin are so efficient."

Seeing the crowd cheering, Liang Meng said, "There is still an iron pagoda. Bring up the iron pagoda quickly."

Everyone saw a war horse covered in iron armor walking slowly, with a look of shock on their faces.

"This way the war horse will be invulnerable."The eldest prince said.

"The weight of this armor seems to be very heavy. I wonder if it will affect the speed and endurance."Prince Su said.

"Let me give him a try," Prince Li said excitedly.

"After all, heavy iron cavalry weighs more than light cavalry, but heavy iron cavalry is not designed to be flexible. Since heavy iron cavalry is invulnerable, it can be used as a killing weapon to disrupt the enemy's formation and tear a hole in the enemy's formation. This will determine Victory in the battle."Liang Meng slowly described to everyone the power of heavy cavalry in future combat.

"With these weapons, I will be able to dominate the world," the eldest prince said.

"The Queen Mother's move to improve weapons at this time is really a miracle."Prince Li said.

Liang Meng was surrounded by everyone. Hearing the soldiers shouting "The Queen Mother..." she felt very happy. She looked around, happily accepting everyone's admiration and adoration. Liang Meng noticed the expressions of Prince Su and Prince Yong. Admiration and fear.

九幽
As the border of the Sunset Dynasty, the environment is harsh and there is no money. However, it is rich in iron ore and became the place of exile for the Sunset Dynasty.

On the slope, a group of people surrounded the boulder. Three or five strong men in front tried their best to pull the boulder tied with a hemp rope. Behind the boulder were several strong men pushing the boulder.

"Quick, give me strength, push hard." The officers and soldiers in the Exile Land severely beat several strong men with whips.

After the whip fell, a deep red blood mark bloomed. Looking carefully, there was no intact skin on the body, and traces of whipping were all over the body.

The strong man who was hit by the whip suppressed his shouts. There was a small amount of sweat on his forehead. His thin clothes made it difficult to see the cold weather. He knew that shouting would only make him suffer more severe beatings.

The hemp rope broke, and what followed was a whipping for no reason. The man shouted for mercy, but the officers and soldiers continued to whip. Several men who were still pushing the huge stone could no longer hold on to the weight of the huge stone and ran to both sides of the road. , The boulder slowly rolled down the slope. No one dared to step forward to stop the boulder, otherwise they would only be crushed to pieces by the boulder.

Yuan Gao, who was carrying stones with his young hands, saw the rolling boulders and immediately put down the stones to hide beside him. Yuan Gao was dressed in tatters, his hair was like a bird's nest, black dirt was all over his body, and his whole body exuded a foul odor. Chapped lips and thin body showed that he was only in his teens.

Yuan Gao saw the rolling boulder heading towards an old man who was throwing stones away. Apparently the old man did not notice the situation of the boulder. Yuan Gao shouted loudly, hoping that the old man could avoid the boulder. The officers and soldiers reacted at this time, and Yuan Gao did not continue. He wanted to survive, so he whipped the whip on his young body, and waves of pain exploded in Yuan Gao's mind.

Fortunately, the old man heard Yuan Gao's cry and avoided the boulder.Yuan Gao smiled happily.

After a day's work, everyone lined up to eat. Yuan Gao saw that today's meal was the same as before. The rice soup was mixed with gravel and sand, and there were animal carcasses in the vegetables. Yuan Gao put the food into his mouth out of habit.

"Young man, thank you very much for today, otherwise I would have been under a boulder, giving you my rice soup to eat."said the rescued old man.

"No, old man, this is enough for me."Yuan Gao said.

"Hai, you are such a good person. I have been here for 20 years and I haven't met a good person in a long time."

"Twenty years"?Yuan Gao said in surprise.

"I was only in my 20s when I came here, and now I am in my 40s."The old man knew that his white hair and wrinkled skin did not look like a man in his forties, so he said, "This is not a place for people to live."

"Will no one leave here?" Yuan Gaodao said.

"Leave, I haven't heard the word leave for a long time. Only dead people can go out here. There is a corpse pile near the mine. The dead will be thrown there and become lonely souls." Wild ghost".The old man said.

"Only dead people can get out of here"?Yuan Gao thought disheartenedly.

After the two of them finished eating, they returned to the tent with straw as a bed, dragging their tired bodies into sleep.

Yuan Gao couldn't sleep no matter what. He thought that he was only a teenager and would spend his whole life here until he died and became a lonely ghost?

Dajin Military Camp
After reviewing the improvements in weapons, Liang Meng and everyone sat in front of the table to discuss how to defeat Wang Yuan's army.

"In my opinion, let's just go ahead and do it. Our equipment has been improved. Are we afraid that we won't be able to defeat them?" Prince Yong arrived.

"Shut up, Wang Yuan is so easy to deal with, and I, Da Jin, will lose so many battles." The eldest prince arrived.

"Then how shall we fight?"Prince Yong arrives.

"I just received news that the Emperor of the Sunset Dynasty sent Zhen Aiyin to come for support, and he is now stationed in Jiuyao City. Another thing to mention is that the Emperor of the Sunset Dynasty sent Wang Aifu as the supervisor."Prince Su said.

"Is this news important?"Prince Yong arrives.

"The Sunset Dynasty is preparing for a protracted war with Daikin."Prince Li has arrived.

"In a protracted war, will the Sunset Dynasty have any money?"The eldest prince asked.

"Of course, taxes are collected layer by layer from the people."Prince Su arrives.

"Then we have to wait until Sunset Dynasty has no money?"Prince Yong arrives.

"Of course not. In that case, what will happen to me? What's the point of us sitting here today?"The eldest prince arrives.

Liang Meng listened to their back-and-forth discussion and gradually formed a plan in his mind.

"Mother, do you have any ideas?"The eldest prince saw the Queen Mother stunned and asked expectantly.

Everyone looked towards Liang Meng.

Facing the eyes of everyone, Liang Meng said, "Ai Jia, I have really thought of a plan, I wonder if it is feasible?"
"The Queen Mother, you might as well come and listen."Prince Li said. "The Sunset Emperor sent Zhen Aiyin and Wang Aifu. In the eyes of the Ai family, they were not looking for support, but were deeply afraid."

"What's so strange about this? It's always been like this since ancient times."Prince Yong said.

"Indeed, this has always been the case since ancient times, but the emperor of the Sunset Dynasty could not govern personally, and especially relied on trust in the eunuchs. In this case, the emperor's suspicion was beyond the reach of other emperors."Liang dreamed.

"The Queen Mother is saying that we can take advantage of the emperor's suspicion."Prince Su said.

"Prince Su is right. We fought Wang Yuan several times but could not kill him. Even if the weapons were improved and Sunset could defeat the battle, we could not kill the general.

But we can use the emperor's suspicion to eradicate Wang Yuan." Liang Mengdao.

"Then how can we use it?" the eldest prince said impatiently.

Everyone thought about it.

"We killed Wang Aifu and framed him as Wang Yuan," Prince Yong said.

"How can you still think about something mindless?" Prince Li said.

"Yes, we want Wang Yuan to kill Wang Aifu," Liang Meng said.

"How could Wang Yuan kill Wang Aifu?" Prince Li wondered.

"Listen to what the Aijia tell you in detail. The Aijia have studied Wang Yuan. He rose from the lowest level to the position of general step by step, and he never lost a battle. You say that Wang Yuan is What kind of character”.Liang Meng asked.

"Of course he is a talented and proud man," Prince Yong said.

"Yes, in a court full of young men from aristocratic families and eunuchs, he will definitely be a proud person to become a general. No, it should be said that he is a person who relies on his talents and is arrogant."Liang dreamed.

"So what if he is a arrogant person?" the eldest prince asked in confusion.

"If I, Dajin, send troops to the city where Zhen Aiyin is stationed, pretending to be trapped, and the two armies are in a stalemate, do you think Zhen Aiyin will want to be the leader of the army and take the credit for defeating Dajin?"Liang Mengdao.

"Trapped, can I, Dajin Dazhen Aiyin, still be trapped?" Prince Yong said.

"Zhen Aiyin and his family, although they are officials of the sunset, they can even harm the country by raising soldiers. How loyal do you think he is to the sunset dynasty?"Liang Mengdao.

The crowd was silent.

"The answer is no. As long as we promise Zhen Aiyin a lot of profit, cooperate with him once, defeat Da Jin in a play, take all the military exploits, and give us gold, silver and jewelry, he will definitely do this scene with us," Liang Mengdao.

"Why should we do this?" Prince Li said.

"In the Sunset Dynasty, the courtiers followed Zhu Chong's lead, but Wang Yuan held a large number of troops and was outside Zhu Chong's control. Do you think Zhu Chong would allow Wang Yuan to gain military exploits again? In the Sunset Dynasty, there were factions first. Only then can we achieve political achievements again, otherwise we would rather kill him by mistake than let him go."

"As a eunuch, Wang Aifu gained the emperor's trust by relying on his flattery, not his strength.

And as a person with a physical disability, he is bound to be spurned and looked down upon.

And Wang Yuan has an attitude of looking down on Wang Aifu because of his strength. Even if it is hidden deeply, it will be exposed inadvertently.

Do you think Wang Aifu will hold a grudge? A eunuch with a mutilated body has been ridiculed. After he gained power, he allowed others to ridicule him."

"Wang Aifu, as a eunuch, has no heirs. What do you think he loves?" Liang Meng said.

"What to love"?The eldest prince was confused.

"I love money," Prince Su said.

"Yes, he can't get women, he already has the power, and money is what he wants now."Liang Mengdao.

The crowd took it for granted.

"Zhen Aiyin and Wang Yuan are not affiliated with each other, and they dislike each other. Who doesn't want to have the merit of defeating Dai Jin.

We pretend to be trapped, let Zhen Aiyin write to the emperor, have Wang Yuan assist and support us in winning the big gold, bribe Wang Aifu to lobby, and then let Zhu Chong lobby, and the matter will be successful."

"Don't they know that Wang Yuan is the lifeblood of the sunset?"The eldest prince asked.

Everyone just smiled and didn't answer.

"In this era, faction is king, so ability is forgotten by everyone. Everyone always thinks that as long as there is a chance to stand out, he will have military merit. It is not that he has the ability, but he has to do it."Liang Meng thought in his heart.

"The key to the siege battle is who runs out of food first. If it goes according to what Ai Jia said, Wang Yuan will be dissatisfied as an auxiliary to provide food at this time. At this time, he will send troops to attack Zhen Aiyin Liangdao and Zhen Aiyin at the same time. Wang Yuan will definitely not send troops immediately."

"Do we really want to target Zhen Aiyin?"Prince Yong said.

"Of course, for someone who has betrayed his own country, do you think he will betray Dai Jin again one day after surrendering?" Liang Meng said.

"Wang Yuan will wait until Zhen Aiyin is defeated to come to support and win the entire battle.

At this time, Wang Aifu will continue to urge Wang Yuan to send troops, which will continue to anger Wang Yuan.

In addition, Wang Yuan was dissatisfied with His Majesty, and after just being proud, there was no guarantee that he would not kill Wang Aifu.

Even if Wang Aifu is not killed, Wang Aifu will definitely join Wang Yuan and disobey the holy order." Liang Mengdao.

"After we quickly defeated Zhen Aiyin, we combined our forces to attack Wang Yuan. We caught him by surprise and it was impossible to guarantee that Wang Yuan would not be defeated.

We only need to spread out in the Sunset Imperial City. Wang Yuan intends to support his own troops or seek refuge with me, Dajin. If he is defeated, how can the emperor not punish Wang Yuan because of his jealous heart.

Even if he is not defeated, the emperor will not worry about Wang Yuan.

At that time, the families of Zhu Chong, Wang Aifu, and Zhen Aiyin will be released, Wang Yuan will be doomed, and I, Dajin, can get rid of Wang Yuan." Liang Mengdao.

"What if Wang Yuan rebels?" the eldest prince asked.

"Then Wang Yuan is no longer my opponent of Dajin. He himself is a traitor general. He attacked Dajin Division without success, and the generals will not support a traitor general. After the defeat, the number of soldiers will decrease;
Secondly, the families of the soldiers were all in the imperial city, and treason was a serious crime against the nine clans;

Thirdly, the food will be supplied by the imperial court. The soldiers and horses will go ahead without moving the food and grass. The soldiers will never follow Wang Yuan hungry," Liang Mengdao said.

"Wang Yuan has only one way to die."Liang Mengdao.

"This means that since we can't defeat Wang Yuan from the outside, we can disintegrate Sunset from the inside."Liang Mengdao.

"This is all speculation by the Ai family. In order to prevent unexpected situations, if Zhen Aiyin is still a patriotic general, then he will not accept our temptation of heavy profits, and I, Daikin, need to be firmly trapped.

After we spread the rumors, the emperor's trust in Wang Yuan has not been shaken, so it is necessary for the soldiers to defeat Wang Yuan and prove his crime."

It is really sad that a famous general of a generation was accused of treason.

Everyone nodded.

Prince Su stared at this woman whom he had never paid much attention to in surprise.
