Chapter 36 Chapter Thirty-Six

Looking out from Dazai Bopi's military tent, you can see Kuaiji Mountain.The mountain is not big, but it can be regarded as verdant vegetation.King Goujian of Yue State had an army of 150,000, only 5,000 remnants remained, and they were all trapped in this tiny place, scattered like birds between the hazel and the grass.It was very hot, and Goujian's soldiers were suffering from mosquito bites in the mountains. From time to time, they saw the silhouettes of Vietnamese soldiers flashing in a hurry, and then fell into the vegetation, probably digging for mountain grass that could fill their stomachs. Or use a bucket to scoop up some stagnant water full of larvae to quench your thirst.Kuaiji Mountain, where the defeated generals of the Yue Kingdom retreated, was surrounded by the extremely elite and powerful Wu army, like a small dead island.Goujian was desperate, so he sent doctor Zhu Jiying to ask for peace, expressing that Goujian was willing to kowtow to the border, and let his own son and daughter go to Wu Palace to serve with a dustpan and a washbasin.Although King Wu was moved, but Wu Zixu insisted on fighting, so he did not agree.It is reported that Goujian was in despair after the peace talks broke down.Gou Jian planned to kill his wife, set fire to the treasures of Yue State, and put all his eggs in one basket to fight Wu State to the death...

Bo Pi is not in the mood to care about the winner of Goujian, the king of Yue in Mount Kuaiji, and Fucha, the king of Wu, who sent his troops to encircle and suppress Yue.He was very busy, and he was so excited that he wanted to die, but all these excitements did not come from Wu Jun and Wu Wang, but Yue Wang Goujian brought him.Goujian, the king of Yue who was on the verge of extinction, regarded him, the highest military and political officer of the state of Wu, and the Dazai who handled the daily affairs of the royal family, as the last lifesaver. "Summation".One man and eight women came, and the women were all wrapped in veils. After entering Bo Pi's big tent, they knelt down and never got up.The emissary said: "King Goujian of Yue ordered me to kowtow to Bopi Dazai instead of him, and begged Dazai to allow Wu and Yue to negotiate peace. Dazai must not refuse. Who in the world knows that Dazai can be half of Wu's family. A promise!" Bo Pi said, "Goujian, the king of Yue, is already a turtle in a urn. At this moment, it is impossible to use my power to survive. Bo Pi, as the governor of Wu, serves the king of Wu as his The ambition of your life, don't waste your words." The man said again: "So, Bo Pi Dazai refused to speak to the king to forgive the Yue Kingdom?" "You understand." The man said: "This is terrible. Yes. If the king of Wu cannot pardon the king of Yue, the king of Yue has already decided to kill his wife, burn the treasures of the country, and lead his army to fight to the death, to the last man. Dazai has never heard of the phrase "a trapped beast will still fight" right? , At that time, it is inevitable that Wu State will suffer great damage!" "Although Wu State has a small injury, Yue State will no longer exist." "Then, who will offer beautiful treasures to the Taizai? Yue State The king has sworn to the Tianmeng that if he gets the help of the Dazai, the King of Yue will never forget it. He will donate national treasures to the King of Wu every year, and every year he will also donate a piece of treasure to you, the Dazai..." Bo Pi was furious: "How dare you bribe me? This Dazai, get out of the tent quickly! If you have something to say, you can meet the king." In front of the Yue people and the cronies in the tent, Bo Pi, the Dazai of the Wu State, showed a high-spirited and dignified aura, but he did not refuse those dazzling treasures. device.Bo Pi is extremely intelligent in both literary and military affairs, and he knows when to play which role, and he will never make a mistake.What he plans in his heart is often very different from the appearance on the outside.Even though he was over fifty years old, his face was still beautiful, with red and white faces, and it was an article that was difficult to decipher.After he threw the male envoys sent by the Yue Kingdom out of the military tent, he asked the eight women wearing veils from the Yue Kingdom in a sharp voice, "Why are you staying here?" Dazai Bopi take in us helpless little girls. We have been homeless for a long time. If King Goujian of Yue doesn’t invite us, we will sneak into your tent. If we If you go back, you will inevitably be killed. I implore Dazai to be merciful, the little girl is willing to serve Dazai sooner or later..." As he said this, he pulled off his veil, and there seemed to be an uproar in the army tent, and all eight of them were all stunning women!Bo Pi's heart moved, but he tried his best to remain indifferent, pondered for a moment, and said, "What's wrong with you women? You have also suffered such misfortune, alas, just avoid disaster in my tent for now..." Then he accepted eight logically. A Vietnamese woman.Before it was too late, Bo Pi set up a sentry post outside the military tent, and let eight of the most beautiful Fendai from the Yue Kingdom "serve" once in the tent.Unexpectedly, all eight of them had been trained by Yue Wang Goujian. Once he started to knead and knead them tenderly, Bo Pi's whole body became crispy.After turning upside down, the wildness revealed in the femininity of Yue women, and the delicate posture that sometimes groans and sometimes faints, are things that Bo Pi has never experienced from the beautiful women of Wu.Bo Pi wished he could be transformed into these beauties, his desire to conquer suddenly grew, and he felt young again.In his feeling, it was as if he was overseeing the entire Yue Kingdom, he was the king of the Yue Kingdom overnight!How can there be any conquest?

The next day, Bo Pi slept until the sun was up, and when he got up, his legs felt weak, but he hurriedly dressed and went to see Wu Wang Fucha.Naturally, at this time, Bo Chu already knew it well, and he firmly advocated a peace negotiation.At that time, Wen Zhong, the envoy of King Goujian of Yue, had already kneeled and walked on his knees from outside the tent, and came to Fucha.Wen Zhong eloquently stated the reasons for pardoning the Yue Kingdom and the benefits of peace talks, and begged the king of the Wu Kingdom to avoid a final fight. At the command of the doctor, the daughters of the scholars will be sent away by the soldiers of the state of Wu. King Goujian of Yue will also lead his wife to the palace of the state of Wu as slaves.Fu Chai murmured, seemingly agreeing.Bo Pi made a deliberate statement and said, "If you surrendered to the Yue Kingdom after a deadly battle, it is indeed not as easy as this to obtain the Yue Kingdom. Since the Yue Kingdom has already belonged to the subject, the king pardoned Goujian, which is beneficial and harmless. .”

Wu Zixu was so irritable that he couldn't bear it. Wu Zixu was in high spirits.After he released Sun Wu quietly, he returned to Gusu, and together with Fu Chai, he led troops to meet Goujian's army.The war was urgent, and Fu Chai and Bo Pi heard that Sun Wu had been buried and the family members of the Sun family had dispersed, so they didn't pursue it any further.The armies of Wu and Yue met in Fujiao by the Taihu Lake and fought fiercely on the lake.At the critical moment when the outcome was close, Wu Zixu attacked the enemy ship at night, commanded two teams of boat divisions, and ordered the soldiers to hold torches and rush to the boat.When the boat master of the Yue Kingdom saw the flames all over the lake and heard the roar of killing, he was so frightened that he lost all morale and suffered a crushing defeat.Now, Goujian, King of Yue, has been trapped in the small land of Kuaiji Mountain. With just a flick of a finger, the country of Yue will undoubtedly be destroyed, but he is talking about "pardon" and "reconciliation". Wu Zixu was really angry, so he urged Fight again, and say: "My lord, my lord! Dazai's words are absurd! The Wu and Yue countries have been enemies for generations! Have you forgotten, my lord, that Goujian killed his father?"

Wen Zhong hurriedly said: "King Goujian of Yue knows that he has offended the king. He knows that the king of Wu State can raise the dead to the State of Yue. Gou Jian is facing the king at this moment, kneeling on the Kuaiji Mountain, sincerely and sincerely. Forgiveness!" Bo Pi knew Fu Chai's thoughts very well, and said straight to the point: "Doctor Wu, you don't know that the king just wants to conquer the country, not to destroy it. You don't know that the king's ambition is to go north. Central Plains, rule the world, right?" Wu Zixu: "The two countries of Wu and Yue are surrounded by three rivers, and they are irreconcilable. If you take Yue completely, you can occupy its land, ride its boats, and drive its chariots and horses. , nor can it occupy its land and drive its chariots and horses. Which is more important, the king thinks twice! Your Majesty must not let this opportunity slip away, and destroying the Yue Kingdom quickly is a great plan!"

Fu Chai: "What the Dazai said is very true. The great cause of the lonely king is to go north to the Central Plains and conquer Qi!" Wu Zixu: "Your Majesty! It's the foundation of breaking the Yue Kingdom in the south!" Bo Pi suddenly interjected: "Doctor Wu, when you mourned Sun Wu not long ago, you repeatedly talked about 'benevolence'. Where is your 'benevolence' now?" Wu Zixu choked. Fu Chai was impatient: "I have made up my mind, the language, you can reply to Gou Jian, since the Yue Kingdom surrendered to me, Gou Jian can be my servant, I will take benevolence and virtue as my heart, and I have the right to forgive you!"

Wu Zixu was shocked. Fu Chai flicked his sleeves and went to the inner tent, followed by Bo Pi. Wen Zhong was still kneeling, walking on his knees, and got out of King Wu's tent. Wu Zixu jumped up and shouted, "Fu Chai! Fu Chai! Have you forgotten Gou Jian's revenge for killing his father?" silent.Wu Zixu burst into tears: "Fucha! You... forgot! What a legacy of raising tigers! It's over, it's over! Twenty years later, King Wu's palace will become a sewage pool!" Fu Chai was furious when he heard this in the inner tent, and drew out his sword in a bang, and Bo Pi hurriedly pressed Fu Chai's hand.Fu Chai put away his sword and shouted:

"Come on, get the lunatic Wu Zixu out!" Wu Zixu heard it.He wiped the tears from his cheeks, turned around and exited the big tent. He muttered to himself: "Heaven destroys the country of Wu! Sun Wu'an is here? If Sun Wu is here, maybe it won't end like this..." ... Before Wu and Yue made a blood alliance, Fu Chai hastily reconciled with Yue and returned home. Afterwards, Gou Jian took his wife with him and went to Fuchai, the king of Wu, as slaves. Three hundred courtiers went to serve as slaves. Goujian and his wife wore tattered clothes, lived in a stone room, swept the courtyard, cleared the manure from the stables, and did rough work.Even when Fu Chai was sick with dysentery, Gou Jian went to lick Fu Chai's excrement himself to judge his condition.After working as an ox, a horse, and a servant for three full years, Gou Jian won the trust of Fu Chai before he was released.

After returning to the country, Gou Jian tried his best to enrich the country and strengthen the army, and adopted the nine strategies of the doctor's language to defeat Wu.Gou Jian continued to make an extremely humble gesture. Fu Chai liked clothes, so he wove plain fine cloth as a tribute;Every time he pays tribute, he secretly donates a share to Bo Pi...just wait for the opportunity to destroy Wu for revenge. Time flies, Sun Wu escaped from the state of Wu at the flick of a finger, and has lived in the pastoral life in the state of Chen for ten years. The eighty-two chapters on the art of war have been revised, and the axes of the nine volumes of battle battles have been drawn. He is happy to plant vegetables and irrigate the garden. Live a leisurely life.In the meantime, I also heard about some changes in the relationship between Wu and Yue. Seeing through the ambition of Goujian, the king of Yue, and the corruption and mediocrity of Fucha, the king of Wu, he couldn't help facing the east wind, sighing, thinking about Wu Zixu's safety.Although Sun Wu lived in seclusion in the mountains of a small country, for a long time, the children were not strict with their mouths, but the real names and surnames were still known by the princes of the Chen Kingdom.The Marquis of Chen Guo also came to visit in modest clothes and gave some gifts. Knowing that Sun Wu had left Wu by "feigning death", he was frightened by the power of Fu Chai, the king of Wu, and did not dare to use Sun Wu.

The geographical location of Chen State is between Wu and Chu, which is the threshold for Chu State to attack Wu State from the north.The first battle before Wu Wang Fuchai went north to conquer Qi was to beat Chen into obedience and close the door for the Chu army to attack Wu. Unforeseen.Therefore, Fucha took Huadeng and Bopi as the vanguard and personally conquered Chen Guo.Wu Jun rushed through the border city of Chen Guo with lightning speed, and Chen Guo's army was defeated like a mountain.The Chu army who came to the rescue had not yet joined the Wu army, and King Chu Zhao had already died of illness in the army.As soon as the Chu army retreated, the princes of Chen State were completely desperate, so they had to kneel ten miles away from the capital, obediently profess their ministers, and welcome Hua Dengbo to enter the city.

Sun Wu has been living in the mountains and fields, and has not shown his face in public.It never occurred to him that, as an outsider in this Wu-Chen war, he would face catastrophe!At three o'clock that day, more than 500 disciples of Chen Guo, holding torches, surrounded Sun Wu's farmhouse.For a moment, chickens flew and dogs screamed, adults and children were terrified, and they didn't know what happened.Sun Wu hurriedly put on his clothes and got up to see what happened. Yiluo caught up and held Yijian: "Changqing, bring your sword!" Sun Wu said: "It's late." As he spoke, he pushed open the door, and before he had time to look around, more than a dozen bronze daggers were pointed at him. A senior official from Chen Guo made a deep bow and said, "General Sun, I have heard about you for a long time! Please forgive me for being rude to see you so unexpectedly!" Sun Wu arched his hands: "Where is Sun Wu still a general? He is just a vegetable farmer, how dare he bother to mobilize the army like this?" "This doctor is really helpless. I have come to invite the general under the order of Lord Chen." Sun Wu: "Your Majesty loves so much, so Sun can't bear it. I think I'm here in the remote mountains and forests to cultivate land and irrigate the garden, earn my own living, keep my own place, and never offend the Majesty. Today I sent troops to 'invite' me. What can you tell me?" "Send the general back to Gusu!" Sun Tzu: "I understand." "The general is extremely smart, so he naturally understands." Sun Wu was deeply moved: "God is so unfair, the world is so big, and there is no place for Sun Wu to live! But--junhou also loves Sun Wu so much, I didn't expect that I, a vegetable farmer, can be useful. Sun Wu became Chen Guojun Hou’s tribute to the King of Wu! Haha, tribute! Sacrifice! Haha..." At this time, Sun Chi, 25-year-old Sun Chi, 18-year-old Sun Xing, 16-year-old Sun Ming, a silk girl, and Tian Di, who was already an octogenarian, were holding on to their work. Double-toothed copper, iron hoes, iron hoes, and wooden sticks rushed out of the room desperately, wanting to fight to the death with Chen Guo's soldiers.Yiluo was the only one with a weapon in her hand. Holding the Yijian, she quickly rushed to Sun Wu's side, acting like Sun Wu's protector.In an instant, farm tools and weapons were clashing together. Chen Guo's disciples were numerous and powerful. After training, they easily cornered Sun Wu's wife and children. Old Tian Di fell down without any effort from his disciples. Yiluo slashed wildly with his sword, trying to cut a bloody path, but it was in vain, he couldn't even get close to the opponent's apprentice. "Stop fighting! Put down your weapon!" Sun Wu yelled desperately. The "battle" stops.Sun Wu's wife and son, except the sword in Yiluo's hands who refused to let go, all threw away the useless "weapons" and surrounded Sun Wu. Sun Wu looked around blankly. Five hundred strong armored soldiers, holding torches and sticking to weapons, surrounded Sun Wu's small farmhouse in groups, making it impossible to get around.The armored soldiers trampled over the bamboo fence, broke through the chai gate, and some climbed up to the roof and burned the thatch on the house.Yiluo let out a cry, and ran back to the burning house with Silk Girl, snatched out those bamboo slips, picture scrolls and Yiqin, and hugged them tightly.The flames danced and crackled recklessly, burning Sun Wu's face with pain.Thick smoke fluttered, he squinted his eyes, looked up, down, left, right, left, right, the flames and the homes that were about to be burned to ashes, and looked at the homeless family for a moment, feeling sad for a while. Doctor Chen Guo said: "General, let's go!" The whole family, those named "Changqing", "General", and "Father" were in a mess, yelling at each other, surrounded them and refused to let them go. Sun Tzu: "They—hundreds of disciples are on the verge of a formidable enemy, so don't let them bother." Doctor Chen Guo: "It's very good." Sun Wu: "Forget it, if Sun Wu's family suffers disaster, the war between Wu and Chen can be quelled, which is also Sun Wu's glory. What's the harm in being a tribute?" Yiluo: "No!—Wu Wang Fucha will not let you off this time—Changqing!" certainly.Sun Wu knew that this trip would be more or less auspicious. Dr. Chen Guo said: "Please General Sun, but don't worry, you have made great contributions to the Wu State. The old ministers of the former king will be fine. Therefore, although I have brought five hundred soldiers, I have already told my subordinates not to be hurt. General half a hair!" Sun Wu laughed loudly: "Haha, thank you for rewarding me with a whole body! Haha...thank you very much!" While speaking, the soldiers had already pushed the prison cart that had been prepared in advance. Before Sun Wu walked towards the prison cart, he looked back at Yiluo, Silk Girl and the three sons.There seemed to be a lot of words hidden in his wet eyes, but he couldn't say them.He is over fifty years old, his temples are gray, how many vicissitudes have he experienced?For a while, the past thirty years came to my mind.How many catastrophes and misfortunes has he brought to Silk Girl and Yiluo in the past thirty years?How much unspeakable guilt does he have?It is beyond words, and how much love did they give him?How much tenderness?It's not clear either.He walked towards the prison cart, and the whole family's wife, concubine and son will also be escorted back to the state of Wu. Regarding this point, he has nothing to do, nothing to do, and even more speechless!He saw the house collapsed in the raging fire, and saw that his wife and concubine brought nothing out, did not grab anything, but hugged three things tightly: sword, qin and bamboo slips!He couldn't bear such great love, his heart was trembling, and he quickly turned his head and boarded the prison car.Behind him, he heard the shouts of Yiluo, Silk Girl, Sun Xing, Sun Chi, and Sun Ming, heard the roar of soldiers, and saw two large prison carts pushing over again... Three prison cars, escorted by five hundred armored soldiers, headed for the border of Wu State. It was dawn, and the sky was pale. On the road, there are scars left by the war everywhere: the corpses of soldiers, the remains of war horses, burning chariots... Suddenly, I saw a group of soldiers and horses approaching, about a thousand of them.The word "Wu" is impressively displayed on the banner, probably a Wu army that was ordered to march deep into Chen State.The prison car and the brigade that locked Sun Wu stopped, and the generals of the Wu army were asking Dr. Chen about something.After a while, the prison van started rumbling again to the northeast. At this time, all the Wu troops dodged to the side of the road. As he got closer, Sun Wu could see General Wu's face clearly. He didn't know this general, this brave general was really too young, with hair on his lips. When the young General Wu Guo saw Sun Wu in the prison car, he was very excited, and suddenly jumped off his horse, turned around and shouted to his army: "The whole army hasten to salute! This is General Sun Wu of Xibaqiangchu!" All the soldiers of the Wu army got off their horses at once, and bowed their hands to Sun Wu in the prison car to give a solemn bow. General Wu knelt down on one knee and said, "General Sun! Although I have no chance to be under the general's command, Wu's military uniform is getting more and more worn out, and the battle formation is always the general's battle formation. The tactics are still the general's tactics, and the general's prestige remains the same Among the two armies of Jing Xing! General, please be respected by the younger generation! General, please take care!" Sun Wu closed his eyes.what is this?Is it inspection?Such a review! The prison cart also seemed to become more solemn, the speed of the prison cart seemed to slow down, and the rattling spokes seemed to have become more gloomy.Sun Wu wished that the prison car would pass by Wu's army as soon as possible, but the time and road seemed to be lengthened.On the side of the road, there is another generation of generals and soldiers. What can he say to this generation of vigorous soldiers?Take care of yourself?Who takes care?Who needs to take care more?Sun Wu thought helplessly.You may not be able to talk about "taking care of yourself" or not, but you have lived in this world for more than fifty years after all!where are they?They are still calves, or suckling tigers, even if they are lucky enough not to be ghosts on the battlefield of Chu State, and lucky to not be ghosts on the battlefield of Chen State, will they be lucky again?King Fu Chai of the Wu State is planning to go north to the Central Plains. You, young generals and disciples, go south, go north, can you finally go home?Is it a ghost in the state of Jin?Is blood spilled on the country of Lu?Or do you hate Qi?The Sun Wu you admire is only Sun Wu who is "good at fighting". Who among you knows that the highest level of Sun Wu's military use is "not fighting"?Who knows, who?Because of these, Sun Wu's eighty-two art of war and nine scrolls can be handed over to whom? The prison car finally bid farewell to Wu Jun. The prison van arrived at the border between Wu and Chen. Chen Guojun respectfully bowed his head to Fu Chai, the king of Wu, and offered a tribute: "Your Majesty, the prince of a small country is just a remote person in the grass and wild. Resentment, blood for an alliance. Chen Guo was originally a small city that contributed goods to the king. He never gave up, and he admired his kindness. The king ordered the soldiers of your country to beat the subjects of the small country with whips. The princes of the small country will serve the king from now on. Pay tribute every year, and offer it every year, I wish the king prolongs his life and receives all blessings forever!" Fucha said: "The widow has pardoned you today, you should have self-knowledge, know what is sky, what is earth, what is tree, what is grass, what is eagle, what is chicken, what is stone, what is egg .” "Please don't worry, Your Majesty, I understand." Fu Chai: "You should have a beginning and an end, don't be in a hurry, and you should encourage yourself in the future." "yes." "If you have any contribution, submit it to the widow to see." "Although the small country is poor and humble, I hope to spend all it has. According to the highest contribution of the alliance of princes in the world, I will restrain myself. Today, what I dedicate to the king is a hundred sets of Tailao!" If one set is too tight, it means one cow, one pig, and one sheep; if one hundred sets are too tight, it means three hundred livestock.According to the etiquette system, the king of Wu collected tribute from the princes of the small country, and the number could not exceed twelve.However, when the three hundred livestock were coming, Wu Wang Fuchai felt at ease, and there was no joy on his face. Chen Guoguo said again: "Your Majesty, I have one more thing here, which can be returned to Your Majesty." This is Sun Tzu! Sun Wu, who was a tribute to the princes of Chen State, was in pain in the cage.While waiting for the dedication, he saw clearly through the gaps between the disciples that there were three prison wagons for the whole family, and he had one for himself, with his head and hands locked in a wooden cage, unable to move. Silk girl and Yiluo shared a prison cage, and their three sons shared a prison cage. The old servant Tian Di didn't even have the right to "enjoy" the cage. He was only tied up behind a horse's ass, and no one in the family was spared.They waited in a dry river, mixed with a hundred pigs, a hundred sheep, and a hundred cows.Finally it was their turn to "consecrate", but they followed behind the pigs, cows, and sheep.The mighty "army" of livestock, on the way to "contribute", pulls feces at random, and the stench is soaring; they are free to bump into each other without being bound;And he, Sun Wu, the heroic general back then, can be equal to a sheep now?A mouthful of pig?Or half a cow?It can even be said that even those domestic animals are not as good as pigs, cows and sheep. They are surrounded by "pens" in the car, and they are locked in cages. The prison cart arrived in front of Fucha, king of Wu.Fu Chai was really surprised. Fucha: "You?!" Sun Wu said nothing. Fu Chai: "The widow is really a ghost!" Chen Guoguo hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, this Sun Wu rebelled from the Wu Kingdom ten years ago, avoiding the hustle and bustle, and has been living in seclusion in the mountains of the Chen Kingdom..." Fu Chai: "Well, you brave Sun Wu, you dared to deceive the widow for ten years! Are you guilty?" Sun Tzu still didn't speak.Fu Chai was furious: "Where is Doctor Wu?" Wu Zixu responded, "The minister is here." When Sun Wu saw that King Wu's Fucha wanted to ask about Wu Zixu's crime, he had to say: "Sun Wu's life and death has nothing to do with Wu Zixu's business. Sun Wu used his death as an excuse ten years ago to hide from the world and leave Wu. Doctor Wu didn't know anything about it." Fu Chai sneered and said, "You are so deliberate in cleaning up Dr. Wu, but the widow can't believe that Dr. Wu is clean. From this point of view, the two of you have made an oath beforehand, right?" Wu Zixu said bluntly: "Let the king punish the crimes of his ministers." Sun Wu: "Your Majesty, I have long since decided not to ask about political affairs or wear armor. To Your Majesty, although Sun Wu is alive, it is not the same if he dies sooner or later. Please, Your Majesty, give Sun Wu his death immediately, so that no one else will be harmed!" Bo Pi came to intervene, and his target was always Wu Zixu: "Your Majesty, according to my opinion, General Sun's deception and despise of the royal court may not be possible for him alone. The ins and outs of it must be clarified. Chu, the punishment is for the crime." Fucha: "No." Wu Zixu: "Why does Bopi Dazai have to go round and round? Why is this unclear? If you want to punish the crime, you can ask the king to punish Wu Zixu and Sun Wu together. It's okay to say that Wu Zixu deceived the king, and it's okay to say that Wu Zixu is not good, but Wu Zixu is true. It is indeed a good deed for the king! Sun Wu was originally a hero of the state of Wu, a beloved general of the late king, and the late king had a commandment at the end of his life to forgive General Sun for life. In order to tell the spirit of the former king in heaven. Sun Wu lived in Wu for more than 20 years, conquering the north and south; Sun Wu went to Wu for a full ten years and kept his name incognito. What is the crime? I am afraid that if the king punishes Sun Wu for his crime, the world will not accept it, which will hinder the good of the king. Fame! The crime can only be punished for Wu Zixu's crime, and Wu Zixu took it!" Fu Chai: "That's very good. Doctor Wu committed the crime of deceiving the emperor, and the crime should be punished. If you are an old minister of the former king, go and receive forty punishments!" Sun Tzu: "Your Majesty!" Fucha: "Forty sticks!" Wu Zixu, who was over sixty years old and had white hair, was pressed to the ground and suffered from beating his flesh with a stick.The wooden stick hit his slack and inflexible flesh, making a popping sound.Wu Zixu didn't groan, but just yelled: "It's time to beat! Well done!" "For the king's benevolence, I receive a stick! Another stick!" Two!" Wu Zixu was upright by nature, and he was always loyal and daring to advise. Recently, he had repeatedly collided with Wu Wangfu on the strategic issue of whether to destroy the Yue Kingdom and go north.He believed himself to be the founding father of the country, and he was confident that he was loyal to the great plan of the state of Wu.He never thought that Fu Chai would start a ring, he was not convinced, and he was not convinced, even though his skin was bruised, he still screamed.However, no matter how much he screamed, he couldn't keep the wooden stick from falling on the flesh. His heart was full of desolation, disappointment and loss. Finally, he let out an "ah" and burst into tears. moan. Wu Wangfu beat Wu Zixu with a stick, partly because of Sun Wu's case, and partly to make Wu Zixu angry and make him obey.This was a killing blow, and he hoped that Wu Zixu would not dare to call himself a hero and veteran, and that he would not criticize him any more, and stop obstructing him to disappoint him.He secretly counted in his heart, thirty-one, thirty-two, thirty-three, not one stick less.When Sun Wu saw the sticks and sticks, Wu Zixu's white hair and blood on his body, he felt heartache and chills, but he could only shout "Doctor Wu! Doctor Wu! You have suffered for Sun Wu!" Some were stamping their feet anxiously in the cage.Seeing that his husband ordered Wu Zixu to be held accountable, Bo Pi was also surprised, and then he was secretly delighted, wishing to see this "arrogant old man" suffer from flesh and blood, and he couldn't help but gasp when the stick lifted his flesh and blood.As a close minister of Fucha, he also has a kind of sadness of a rabbit and a fox in his heart, and he is a little scared.Bo Pi hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed: "Your Majesty, Nian Wu is old, please forgive me!" Fu Chai snorted, and gave Bo Pi his back. He would never give up halfway until he counted to forty. It's over.Wu Zixu was carried down. It's Sun Tzu's turn.Fu Chai waved his hand: "Release General Sun and Jia Xiaoquan, and send General back to Gusu!" Everyone was taken aback.is this real? The wind blows the banner, and it roars.The one hundred sets of "too prison", the cows, the sheep, and the pigs, were bleating and mooing. Fucha: "What are you still doing?" Only then did the disciples go to open the cage.Bo Pi hurried forward: "The general is suffering!" Chen Guojun also gave a salute in confusion: "Please forgive me, the general, the little king is really helpless." Sun Wu had no time to pay attention to Bo Pi and the princes of Chen Guo, He thought that Fu Chai, the king of Wu, let him go, but it would be troublesome, and he didn't know what would happen in the future. Sun Wu shouted: "My lord, Sun Wu is really guilty of deceiving the king. Why didn't your lord punish me?" Fu Chai: "General, do you want to make yourself unhappy?" Sun Wu: "If you don't ask Sun Wu's crime thanks to the favor of the king, please let him go back to the mountains!" Fu Chai sneered: "Don't be obsessed with your obsession! I have the right to forgive you for once if I read the words of the former king. Sun Wu, you must remember that there is one, there is no second, and the third is not to be an example. The widow is about to send troops to attack all, and I want you to take the blame and make meritorious deeds!" " "King!" "Send General Sun's family back to Gusu!" The king's order cannot be violated. Although the cage was removed, Sun Wu was not locked up, and the whole family was escorted back to Gusu. No one knows why King Wu Fucha is so merciful. Perhaps, King Wu is still fantasizing about asking Sun Wu to lead his troops to fight?This is only half the guess.For Fu Chai, this decision was not that simple. In an instant, he suddenly remembered a lesson from his father and king several years ago, to the effect that: Sun Tzu's Art of War is not only the way to govern the army, but also the way to employ people.If you doubt him, you should use him; if you use him, put a bit on him; if you put a bit on him, give him some salary; His arrogance, even if you cut off his head, you still have to bury him with a nanmu coffin, gold and silver treasures, and bury him thickly.In this way, the reason why a widow is a widow, and why a king is a king...Of course, Fu Chai couldn't find these meanings from Sun Tzu's Art of War at all, and he couldn't know how his father Wang Helu realized this. However, he felt very proud that he was able to use this teaching to deal with Sun Wu today.
