Chapter 5 Fighting the fire across the mountain

In the garden on a spring night, the flowers and trees were already showing their vitality, but the dead branches and leaves were still there. A scholar in green clothes walked lonely on the winding path. When he stopped by a small tree, he plucked the fresh branches with his hand.

The buds that emerged from the branches fell casually. The scribe looked up to the sky and sighed, just like the buds, he couldn't bear to be shaken too much. This person was Mo Ju who was hiding at home.

The changes in the court were so fast that he was at a loss as to what to do. After waiting for more than ten years, he finally had the opportunity to display his talents. He originally thought that he could realize his ambition of Ling Yun, but who would have thought that in his own life

When the foundation was not yet stable, General Hua passed away suddenly, and Ju Ran soon appeared. When he had a secret conversation with He Ran in Lin State, he was only worried about this Ju Ran. After returning to Dechang City,

, the worry escalated directly into shock, because several senior ministers with high positions had lost their lives because of his impeachment, and the Queen Mother's trust in him was self-evident. In just a few months, this Ju Ran had reached the point of influencing everything.

, Mo Ju, who saw the situation clearly, could only do nothing. Being knowledgeable about ancient times and the present, he immediately thought of countless lessons learned from past mistakes. There were too many examples of kings doting on women and causing harm to the country. Now it seems that the Queen Mother's love for Ju Ran is the reason why.

Women are more likely to go to extremes when it comes to emotions than those kings. With a glimmer of hope, Mo Ju presented the gift that He Ran asked him to bring to the Queen Mother. The Queen Mother only took one look at it and turned cold, holding the gift and waving her sleeves.

After leaving, he could see that this gift touched the Queen Mother. Mo Ju really wished that time could be turned back, so that he could directly escort He Ran back and present it as a gift.

Thinking of his brother He Ran, Mo Ju was really jealous. This man is simply a panacea. It works everywhere. If he is here, the difficulties he is encountering will be solved immediately. He can lead troops to fight.

, He can also deal with the Queen Mother. If he is willing to come to Kang State, our brothers can join hands... Alas, it is useless to think about this. This life is too good. Mo Ju really envies King Yi and his relationship as a monarch and his ministers. He has this

The brother's life is really comfortable, but this is disappointing because he has no ambition! Thinking of this, Mo Ju shook his head, because he realized at this moment that it was precisely because He Ran had no ambition that King Yi and his ministers would not

Suspicious of him, his good life is not entirely due to God.

This period of suppressing the illness and forbearing it was really going to make Mo Ju sick, because he didn't know when it would end. The feeling of seeing Ju Ran constantly cultivating his wings but being helpless was undoubtedly the biggest feeling for him.

He did not go to Zhao Hong to discuss the torture, because when he went to court, he understood only through eye contact that Zhao Hong, who had just become Dazai, was in a similar situation to himself, and his foundation was even more unstable because he also had a

As a traitor, he had to keep his tail between his legs at this moment. But Mo Ju knew in his heart that Zhao Hong was just as forbearing as himself, and he would never tolerate someone like Ju Ran sitting on his head. In contrast, Zhao Hong

He should be even more anxious in his heart. His position as military advisor cannot be replaced by just anyone. Now that the world is constantly in war, and in times of crisis, it is necessary to lead troops to fight with real swords and guns. Even if Ju Ran gains the upper hand, he will still have to rely on himself in the short term.

, if a mediocre person were to take charge of the country's troops, he would be in danger of destroying the country at any time, but Dazai is different, at least if he were replaced by a mediocre person, he would not be in danger of destroying the country for a while.

What kind of opportunity would arise to overthrow Ju Ran? Mo Ju couldn't figure it out. This was his biggest worry. He had known about Tongling's troops to attack Zhao for a long time, and no one in the army had more eyes and ears than him.

After hearing the report, the corner of his mouth twitched. Even Chi Sheng and others understood the unworkable strategy. Naturally, he, as a military advisor, understood it immediately, but he only twitched the corner of his mouth and didn't even say a word.

.

When the news of Pinghe's tragic defeat came, he was so calm that he didn't even raise his eyelids, because he had known this would be the result, but his heart was twitching. Fourteen thousand soldiers, these are all elite soldiers who have fought in hundreds of battles! He really

It hurts my heart. The army of the border guards is far from the army that was temporarily recruited from the civilian population. The Kang State does not have much capital to go through such troubles. After a few more defeats like this, the Zhao State army will be able to take Dechang directly.

Even if he went into battle, there was nothing he could do to save his life. He was heartbroken. He knew that this defeat alone could not bring down Ju Ran in one fell swoop. Did he really have to wait until the country was destroyed to have a chance? Mo Ju closed his lips tightly and stomped back to the dormitory.

As Mo Ju expected, Tong Leng did not lose his position as commander-in-chief due to the defeat of Pinghe, but his promotion momentum was temporarily delayed. What Mo Ju did not expect was that less than a month after the defeat of Pinghe, Kang Guo quickly

After the reconciliation with the Zhao State, there was a clamor in the court hall to unite the Zhao State, Lin State, and Liu State to jointly attack Xiping, which made Mo Ju really unable to sit still.

After analyzing the secret reports from all parties, Mo Ju couldn't help but smile bitterly after thinking about it carefully. Although there was no conclusive evidence, he believed that his inference was not wrong. It should be King Zhao who was secretly controlling these changes. Tonglin attacked Zhao in a sneak attack and lost his generals.

After returning in vain, Ju Ran and his gang realized that Zhao Guo was not as easy to mess with as they imagined, and might be attacked by him. If at this time, King Zhao secretly showed his favor to Ju Ran and cooperated with a large bribe,

If we wait for other means, it will make sense if the two countries quickly repair each other.

After the Battle of Pinghe, Mo Ju learned about Zhao Jun's troop deployment at that time. King Zhao sent 18,000 forbidden troops to assist in the battle. Coupled with the troops at the border of Zhao State, Jiao Gong was fully capable given the right time and place.

After killing both Kang armies, Mo Ju knew a little bit about Jiao Gong's abilities even though they had not fought directly. Previously, he had analyzed that Jiao Gong had just been promoted and was afraid that some of his soldiers would not be willing to use their lives.

Yes, for the sake of caution, they concentrated their direct troops and only surrounded and annihilated Chi Sheng's Kang army. Now that I think about it, it is not the case at all. It was King Zhao who had planned all this in the beginning.

King Zhao must also have seen Ju Ran's eagerness to cultivate power in the army. The best place for promotion in the army is the battlefield. Only when wars are fought can generals have the opportunity to be promoted successively, so he must send someone who is eloquent and eloquent.

The scholar told Ju Ran and his group about the advantages of going to war with Xiping, which was exactly what Ju Ran wanted.

Hum! Mo Ju curled his lips. He had a very clear insight into King Zhao's intentions. If there was a real fight, Zhao would definitely not be able to send troops. His intention was to consume the national power of Kang. When the time came, he would not hesitate to kill Kang.

one strike.

The war with Xiping cannot begin under any circumstances, but how can we stop Ju Ran? Mo Ju thought about it and decided that he must meet Zhao Hong. As soon as he made the decision, the attendant came in to report, Master Dazai
