Mingyue of the Great Song Dynasty http://www./0_1/  The latest work of Xiangnan Xiaoxiaosheng! Thirteen   Everyone has their own ambitions, so don’t force it!

Although Fang Li's worship of Wu Qi was like a continuous river, he knew that it could not be expressed too clearly.

Wu Qi is still just a young man with no surname, and he is a senior general of the Yu State. With Wu Qi's intelligence and talent, if he is too explicit, it will inevitably arouse his suspicion and lead to backfire.

"Haha... Wu Zhuangshi is so brave and willing. I will appreciate you very much and want to take you under my command. If the hero looks down on us, I will be the deputy when we arrive at Chiyang Pass... at least let you be a centurion, I wonder what Wu Zhuangshi thinks?"

Fang Li carried his hands on his back and tested Wu Qi's meaning. He wanted to say that he would be the deputy general, but when he said something, he felt that it was inappropriate, so he changed it to the centurion.

Wu Qi smiled guiltily again and defended: "The kindness of a drop of water should be repaid with a spring of water. General Fang saved Wu Qi's life. I should have repayed him with death. But Wu Qi had already agreed to the invitation of General Cao Gui of Lu and was preparing to go to Lu to become an official, and he was afraid that he would let General Fang down!"

"Is that true?"

Fang Li couldn't hide his disappointment. He thought he had encountered great luck this time, but who knew it was a happy moment.

"Hey... I think you are not punished if you toast. Our General Fang likes you, it is your blessing, but he doesn't know how to polite you?"

Qu Yi next to him was furious and stepped forward to grab Wu Qi's clothes and was about to move. "If I had known this guy was an ungrateful person, it would be better to let the wolf pack eat him! I think General Fang, you don't have to be polite to him. Just catch Chi Yang and let him do a few days of labor and be honest!"

"Don't be rude!"

Fang Li hurriedly stopped Qu Yi's reckless behavior, and he felt as if Wu Qi's thoughts were clear.

With Wu Qi's talent, he is naturally arrogant and arrogant. He is unwilling to help his motherland defend his country. How could he look at the weak Yu Kingdom?

With Wu Qi's talent and ambition, he naturally wanted to make achievements in this world and strive to be famous in history. While super powers such as Qi, Qin, Zhao, Chu, and Jin are full of talents, Wu Qi does not have much chance to perform even if he joins.

But if we join a small country like Yu, Xue, Ju, and Shu, even the country will be in danger. How much impact will it have even if we make a name for ourselves?

After comparing this, Wu Qi's purpose is self-evident. Second-tier countries such as Lu, Wu, Yan, and Yue are the best choices. They have both a place to use their skills and a certain national strength to allow him to display his talents.

The Yu State had only 600,000 people and 30,000 troops, and the area was only 300 miles from south to north.

In contrast, Lu State is much stronger. They have a population of 2.5 million and 130,000 elite soldiers. They have fought against the Eastern overlord Qi State many times, and they can win and lose each other, and their strength cannot be underestimated.

In addition, there were great scholars like Confucius and Mencius who marched around the world to teach Confucianism and Taoism, which was deeply appreciated by the Zhou royal family. Many princes also praised Confucianism. Lu itself was a duke country, so the status of Lu was second only to the five major vassal states. In this way, it was reasonable for Wu Qi to look down on the Yu country.

"It seems that I have a fate with Zhuangshi Wu, it's a pity!" Fang Li shook his head and sighed with a look of regret.

Stay at the front line of life and meet again in the future. Fang Li believes that if Wu Qi is forcibly kept, he will not convince him to serve himself. It is better to be a favor and let him go to Lu State to make friends with a foreign aid. Anyway, Wu Qi will not stay in Lu State for long.

Although this world is different from the history before Fang Li travels through time, it still has many things in common. Fang Li believes that according to Wu Qi's character, he will definitely repeat the same mistakes after staying in Lu for a few years. If his strength becomes stronger at that time, recruiting Wu Qi will become a natural thing.

"I am unforgettable to Wu Qi, General Fang's life-saving kindness. If I can't survive in Lu, if General Fang does not dislike him, he will come to repay the general's kindness in the future!" Wu Qi did not say anything, leaving room for maneuver.

Fang Li smiled with relief: "As long as Fang Li has military power in his hands, the door of Yu State will be open to you at any time!"

Wu Qi added meaningfully: "Of course, if General Fang is not successful in Yu State and Wu Qi is lucky enough to make a name for himself in Lu State, I always welcome General Fang to serve in Lu State. I believe that with General Fang's outstanding archery skills, he will definitely shine in Lu State. The stage that Lu State can provide to the general is not comparable to that of Yu State!"

In the chaotic times of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the concept of country and nation was not very strong, so many famous generals chose to serve other countries. In addition to the Wei people, Wu Qi, who served in the three kingdoms of Lu, Wei and Chu, the famous "Sage of War" Sun Wu also served for Wu as a native of Qi.

The famous generals who served other countries, including Le Yi, the descendant of Wei general Le Yang, served for Yan State, and the descendant of Qi State, Meng Tian, ​​brothers served for Qin State. As for Wu Zixu being persecuted and defected to Wu State to counterattack Chu, and digging the tomb and whipping the corpse of King Ping of Chu, is well known.

This troubled time is a world where the strong prey on the weak. Loyalty has little value. Even the famous general Lian Po of Zhao State was unsafe in his later years. He was treated coldly in his later years and defected to Wei State. Then he went to Chu State and died in a foreign land.

Maybe Wu Qi doesn’t care about the country and nation, but some people care about it.

As soon as Wu Qi finished speaking, Baili Susu next to him scolded: "You guardians can have no father, mother and country, but we Yu people can't do it! I believe that General Fang is born in Yu, and dies as the soul of Yu, and will never defect to other countries!"

Wu Qi smiled: "This girl, you are still young and don't understand that things in the world are impermanent. Sometimes people are in the world and don't help themselves!"

Fang Li said with a sigh: "Everyone has his own ambitions, so don't force him. Since Mr. Wu decided to go to Lu, Fang Li will not force you. I hope that one day we will fight side by side."

Wu Qi said meaningfully: "Maybe this day is not far away. If General Fang has nowhere to go in the future, please remember to come to Qufu to find me."

Fang Li shook his head and smiled bitterly. It was obvious that Wu Qi had already known the news of the visit of the envoy of Jin. With his talent, he could naturally see through the misfortune of whether Yu State agreed to lend it to Jin State or not, and in the end, he would be unable to escape the country. I think this is one of the reasons why Wu Qi refused to agree to Fang Li join the Yu State's army.

Jin State had six million people, 400,000 armored soldiers and 5,000 chariots. If they were to be cruel, they would destroy Yu State. Even if Guo State came to support, they would not be able to change the result. What's more, the Guo-Yu Alliance is now on the verge of breaking.

Fang Li ordered Qu Yi to collect dry firewood and make a fire: "Let's not talk about this anymore. I just fought with the wolves and was hungry. And I brought a pot of good wine to my saddle. Let's drink it together and then part ways!"

Although Qu Yi hated Wu Qi very much, he still collected a large amount of dry firewood as Fang Li ordered to make a fire. Fang Li personally went to peel the wolf's head, cut a wolf's leg and put it on the bonfire to smoke it, and drank a pot of wine with Wu Qi.

"Please forgive me for asking, why did Brother Wu come from the West?" Although Fang Li didn't know who was older than Wu Qi, since he was a general, he had to act like a general.

Wu Qi didn't care and told frankly: "To be honest, my mother passed away a month ago due to illness, and I was following my master to travel to Liang State. Because I did not return to my hometown to mourn, I angered my master and drove me out of the master and left homeless. Fortunately, General Cao Gui of Lu State sent someone to summon me, so he rushed day and night to run into the wolves in this wilderness."

Fang Li suddenly realized: "So that's the case. Who can I ask for the respect of my teacher?"

"Sage Kong is my master, and his disciple Zengzi is my teacher." Wu Qi said in truth.

Zeng Zi's real name is Zeng Shen. He is one of Confucius' seventy-two disciples. His son Zeng Shen was Wu Qi's master in history and expelled Wu Qi from his master. Now it seems that the situation has changed a little. Wu Qi changed from Zeng Shen's disciple to Zeng Shen's disciple, but it has no effect on Fang Li.

The two of them drank a big bowl of wine and ate meat in large pieces. They had a lot of fun from training to governing the country, and they felt that they had met too late. After drinking a pot of wine, the east was slightly white.

Wu Qi stood up with a smile and said, "There is no banquet that will last forever. It's already dawn. Let's just leave here?"

Fang Li suggested: "We met too late, so it's better to have Jinlan together. How about being a brother of a different surname?"
