Chapter 211 Determine the overall situation first
The final result was satisfactory. Wang Xuemen agreed to cooperate with the silence when leaving the wolf clay soldiers. Wang Ji also wrote a sincere letter of persuasion to Zhou Yu on behalf of everyone.
It was already afternoon when I returned to the city from Jianhu. Chen Mo planned to send Xu Wei home first. Unexpectedly, when he arrived at the Dacheng Hall, he saw a few men in good costumes standing at the door of Xu Wei's house protecting a man in a brocade. When he saw the man's appearance, Chen Mo couldn't help but laughed: "Brother Wen, you have indeed attracted Hu Zhongcheng."
Xu Wei jumped out of the car, nodded to Hu Zongxian who had been waiting for a long time, and then unlocked the lock and went into the yard. He was extremely arrogant.
He got out of the car silently and greeted Hu Zhongcheng. When he saw that it was him, Hu Zongxian was quite surprised. After a moment of being stunned, he smiled and returned the greeting, "It turns out it's Brother Zhuyan, what a coincidence."
He smiled silently and said, "Xiaoguan and Brother Wen went out together, but they made Lord Zhongcheng wait. I feel very guilty." He bowed and said, "Don't delay the important work of the Lord, Xiaguan will leave." In fact, he was playing hard to get. Of course, if Lord Hu had no intention of keeping him, he had to go home and take a shower and go to bed, but he didn't want to ask for it.
Fortunately, Hu Zongxian is a serious business, so he quickly kept him and said, "Since my brother is here, you might as well go in and sit in," he said, and lowered his voice as if he was difficult, "Mr. Xu's temper, I can't stand it alone."
After Chen Si left, he laughed and said, "Then the official will accompany the adults in." He ordered the guards to wait outside. The two looked at each other and joined hands to let them go, so they entered the yard.
When the two of them went in, Xu Wei had already packed the table. Seeing Chen Mo coming in, he said angrily: "Why are you here? I don't care about food."
Hu Zongxian laughed loudly and said, "Brother Wen, I brought my own wine and food." As he said that, several personal soldiers came in with food boxes and opened the roast goose sauce duck, roasted chicken, smoked fish, and steamed pork with rice noodles, and put it on the table. There were also several jars of daughter Hong with aged mud seal.
For the sake of the wine and meat, Xu Wei had a good look. He took three white porcelain bowls and said to the soldier who was busy with his side: "Okay, go out, there are too many people and panic."
Hu Zongxian nodded and said, "Go out and close the door, and don't let anyone get close to this room."
Xu Wei poured wine for Chen Si, and poured wine for Hu Zongxian in Chen Si. Hu Zongxian also poured wine for Xu Wei with a smile. The scene was very interesting for a moment.
Even if the governor of a province poured the wine himself, Xu Wei was not polite. He picked up the bowl and drank it, and ate it with a chicken leg. His hands were greasy and he made a sound, not as gentle as the two of Chen and Hu.
Hu Zongxian was not in a hurry to speak, and let Xu Wei eat and drink happily. He was silent and had to take on the task of adjusting the atmosphere so that the scene would not be too embarrassing.
Xu Wei took a lot of alcohol, and soon he became slightly drunk. His mouth finally became less tight. He slanted to Hu Zongxian and said, "To be honest, you Hu Zhongcheng's ability is nothing to say. You should be as good as the martial arts and the best of the three armies..." Hu Zongxian just smiled and wanted to be humble, but listened to Xu Wei's words and said, "But I just don't like you."
I secretly wiped my sweat from the silence and said to myself: "Fortunately I didn't say that, I don't like you, otherwise no matter how well-cultivated the one named Hu, I will have to break up now."
Hu Zongxian reluctantly kept a smile and said, "Why did Brother Wen say this?"
"Nothing for anything else, just because you have to listen to Zhao Wenhua." Xu Wei sneered and said repeatedly: "What is Zhao Wenhua? Apart from playing with power, he is just a bag of wine and no bullshit, but he also likes to direct blindly. With such a person on his head, it is impossible for you to do a career." As he said that, he reached out to pick out the shredded flesh between his teeth and threw it away: "So I said, unless you can kick Zhao Wenhua away, you won't do anything."
This remark aroused Hu Zongxian's thoughts. How could he not know the details of his ally? He was obviously a fool, and he thought he had Guan Zhong and Kong Ming's literary teachings, Wu Qi and Han Xin's martial arts, and liked to be flirting with wars. When Zhang Jing was there, he could have relied on his old qualifications to ignore him, but it also made Zhao Wenhua hate him. He wrote letters to impeach him one after another, and eventually lost his reputation.
Now Hu Zongxian has to rely on Zhao Wenhua, the big tree, to shelter from the wind and rain. Even if Zhao Wenhua does it no longer, he will have to bear it with a smile and sigh with a smile: "I have a hard time talking about this..." Then he said: "Didn't Brother Wen say that he has a trick to fight against the Japanese? Now that I'm coming from Hangzhou, should you also reveal the answer?"
Xu Wei shook his head and said, "You have Zhao Wenhua above you, and it's useless to say it. It's better not to say it."
Hu Zongxian smiled bitterly and said, "Is it possible that Brother Wen is spending time with me?"
Shen Mo hurriedly smoothed out the situation and said, "The plan has indeed been decided long ago, and the time is not yet ripe."
Hu Zongxian found that he was much better than Xu Wei, so he turned to Shen Mo and said, "Even if it cannot be implemented for the time being, why not say it out and make Brother Yu happy?"
"Some words are unpleasant, and they can only be seen as valuable when things come to an end." Shen Mo smiled slightly and said, "So Brother Wen means... I'll talk about it later."
Hu Zongxian said in his heart, what should I do now? He bowed to the two of them and said, "I'm going to salute the two masters, so you can do it, don't keep it in your mouth."
Xu Weidao: "It's okay not to keep it in hiding."
"But sir, you have to promise us one," Shen Mo continued: "Don't tell anyone, especially that sir, Zhao."
Hu Zongxian understood that the two of them were very cautious about Zhao Wenhua and knew that they had to express their position so that they could let them go. After thinking about it, they said in a deep voice: "Of course I know this... Zhao Wenhua is so happy to be good at doing things, and sometimes he is not a person who can share the secrets." He said with a little funny feeling: "The ancients said, 'The people can be used to it, but not to know it.' He should also take this attitude towards this person."
When the two heard this, they thought that this guy was indeed not a good bird. Knowing that he would not follow Zhao Wenhua foolishly, he felt relieved. He looked at each other and said, "As the governor of Zhejiang, what is the judgment of Mr. Hu's situation in fighting against the Japanese?"
When he heard Xu Wenchang call him "Ho Gong", Hu Zongxian immediately became energetic and thought to himself, 'This is a good start.' He straightened his back and cleared his throat and said, "When Wang Jiangjing battle, the Japanese pirates were severely damaged. As long as we step up our efforts to fight this year, I believe that the Japanese turmoil can be quelled soon and the people will be peaceful..."
Before he finished speaking, he saw Xu Wei sneering and said, "Since that's the case, why are you here to come to us? Just take your army and sweep away the fallen leaves."
Hu Zongxian blushed and said, "In fact, there is some trouble."
Xu Wei rolled his eyes and said, "Let's talk about this today. Brother Zhuoyan, you should go back to sleep too."
Chen Xiaoxiao didn't say anything, but he really stood up and acted to leave.
Hu Zongxian quickly grabbed Xu Wei and smiled bitterly, "I foresee that this disaster may become more and more serious," he said, looking at the silent, "I remember that in the twelfth month of last year, I asked you to inform Governor Zhang, asking him not to go to war? I just fear that once he fell, the hearts of the people in the southeast would disperse and the wolf clay soldiers would be destroyed again, and the situation would probably be out of control..."
Silent nodded and said, "It's a pity that Governor Zhang unanimously believed that he was right before the results came out."
"Stop talking about those useless ones." Xu Wei said in a deep voice: "I care about the southeast. I will take over it sooner or later. You should make plans early to avoid being caught off guard at that time."
"Please give me advice." Hu Zongxian has always had a clear attitude towards the issue of the Southeast Governor, who else can I do?
Silent smiled faintly and said softly: "First determine the overall situation, plan before act." He and Xu Wei deliberately rose and fell one after another, in order to give Hu Zongxian the illusion of "being gall to Meng, Meng not being out of gall to Jing".
"The overall situation?" Hu Zongxian whispered.
"Yes, we must first figure out the reason why the Japanese/pirates are difficult to suppress," said quietly and silently: "Then find a way based on this reason."
“What’s the reason?”
"There are three reasons for it simply." Xu Wei smiled and said, "First, many big families along the coast colluded with Japanese pirates to collect intelligence for them, cover them up, and even directly participated in robberies. Therefore, our every move was exposed to the eyes of Japanese pirates. How can we not be passive when fighting? If you want to reverse this situation as soon as possible, first, you have to attack these big families so that they dare not collude with Japanese pirates; secondly, you have to give them enough benefits to help us in turn. In this way, as soon as the Japanese pirates landed, they will immediately fall into an isolated and helpless situation, but we can get news faster and it will be easier to wipe out."
"Well... it's really difficult." Hu Zongxian nodded and said with a wry smile: "Please tell me the second one."
