Chapter 1318 All Quiet(2/2)

Otherwise, the treasury will be empty, and whoever replaces it will feel panicked.

Without the continuous support from the Han State, even if the large spring is cast to 5,000, it will not be enough!

The 5,000 cavalry army being formed alone has not yet begun the war. The money and food consumed in a year is equivalent to the 50,000 infantry army - and this is before the war.

The cost of raising one war horse is at least equivalent to raising six or seven soldiers.

Plus the cost of cavalry.

There are also weapons, armor, etc. that need to be equipped.

Raising one cavalry can raise ten foot soldiers, it’s really no joke.

This is quite a saving.

If you really want to follow the Han culture, it would be even better.

With the strength of the Wu State, it would have been necessary to cast a thousand springs just to support the navy infantry in the country.

Now we have to raise such an additional cavalry force. Without the support of the Han State, financial collapse will be a matter of a blink of an eye.

Sun Quan did not expect that the burden of raising such a cavalry army would be so heavy.

To say that he has no regrets in his heart would be a lie.

But now, no matter how much regret he felt in his heart, he could only bite the bullet and continue to hold on.

After all, he put in so much effort and gave the Han Dynasty shipbuilding technology and taught him the method of ship warfare.

The cavalry was disbanded before the final battle was fought. That would really mean losing both the wife and the army.

The sunk costs are too high!

Not only is the treasury of the State of Wu not supporting the State of Wu to fight another war, but the domestic situation in the State of Wu is also not supporting the State of Wu being able to send out large armies to the north every year like in the past.

The sneak attack on Shouchun the year before last almost succeeded, but in the end it failed, and then the prince Sun Deng suddenly fell seriously ill and died.

For Sun Quan, who was over sixty years old, this was indeed a big blow.

Nowadays, there are undercurrents surging in Wu State. Sun Quan has felt that time is tight and has no choice but to turn his focus to rectifying the internal situation. He does not have much energy to deal with the outside world.

Therefore, Lu Xun's memorial at this time actually coincided with his intention.

So he pretended to accept the advice, suspended sending troops across the river, and asked Yousi to divine things in the north.

Soon, the fortune teller predicted that it would not be conducive to send troops.

Sure enough, not long after, news came from Jiangbei again that the Wei army had increased its troops in Shu County, but it was just to strengthen defense and had no intention of going south.

The ministers in the DPRK all praised Lu Xun for his foresight.

Sun Quan also praised it, but in fact he became more and more afraid of it.

However, after this incident, Sun Quan felt that Zhuge Ke had indeed provoked the northern border too frequently as Lu Xun said.

If it had been before, it would have been okay.

But at this time, the state of Wu was different from the past, so Zhuge Ke was transferred to Chaisang.

Zhuge Ke was transferred away from the front line and lost the opportunity to perform meritorious service. He also learned that Lu Xun was responsible for this incident. He knew that the general had always disliked him, so he wrote a letter to Lu Xun personally:

Yang Jingshu passed down the Qing Dynasty theory, thinking that nowadays, the number of people is withering, and those who uphold virtue can no longer be restored, so it is better to serve as a supporter. They should be more supportive of the chariot, and the state affairs should be cherished by the minister. The disciples who are about to advance do not want to laugh. Hearing this, he sighed sincerely.

Solo Day.

A fool thinks that a gentleman does not seek to prepare for one person. Among the three thousand disciples of Confucius, there are seventy-two of them. As for Zizhang, Zilu, Zigong and other seventy disciples, they are less than sage, but they still have their own merits.

In short, the teacher is determined by the rules, and whether he is given an order or not, how can it be said that there is nothing wrong with him?



Husbands will not let go of small mistakes and blame each other for the smallest things. Over time, it will lead to resentment in every household, and a country will not be able to recover the people who are well-behaved.

The general idea is that the country's talents have been withered over the years, and it should be boldly promoted. There are 3,000 disciples of the saint, and only 72 are outstanding. And these outstanding disciples also have their own shortcomings.

This is still true for disciples of saints, let alone us people?

I just hope that the general will not hold on to small mistakes and demand perfection. Otherwise, over time, everyone will just blame each other and no one in our Da Wu will be promoted.

Zhuge Ke's letter was delivered to Lu Xun, but after reading it, Lu Xun just put it aside and did not reply to Zhuge Ke's letter.

Because he has more important things to deal with.

Prime Minister Gu Yong's condition has further worsened and he is bedridden.

As acting prime minister, he has more and more affairs to deal with.

Not to mention that the incident between the Crown Prince and King Lu is getting more and more intense, and now some courtiers have begun to get caught up in it.

To be precise, there were sons of courtiers who either openly or secretly took refuge with the prince and King Lu respectively.

In Lu Xun's view, these children wanted to go out privately to seek glory and profit. If they did not do well, they would eventually bring disaster. And if they got lucky, it would also be detrimental to the country.

What's more, the prince and King Lu have these children as their wings, and the two palaces are powerful enemies, and they must have each other. This is a taboo of the ancients.

All kinds of things made Lu Xun deeply worried.

Quanji, the son of the Grand Governor Quan Cong, was in contact with Sun Ba, King of Lu, which pushed the dispute between the two palaces to a dangerous stage.

Lu Xun did not write to Zhuge Ke, but instead wrote a letter to Quan Cong.

The letter said: If you do not learn from Jin Rixi, but stay with Ah Ji, you will eventually bring disaster to your family!

To learn from Jin Rixi means to learn from Jin Rixi.

Jin Rixi was one of the auxiliary ministers appointed by Emperor Xiaowu of the Han Dynasty before his death.

During his lifetime, Emperor Xiaowu of the Han Dynasty trusted Jin Rixi very much and loved the house and the crow. He also loved Jin Rixi's son very much.

His eldest son has been with Emperor Xiaohan Wu since he was a child. It can be said that he grew up in the palace.

One time, Jin Rixi saw his son playing with the palace maids, and thought that he was messing with the palace.

Moreover, this son is too frivolous and does not know the importance of dignity. Sooner or later, he will bring trouble to the family.

So Jin Rixi killed his eldest son.

Lu Xun asked Quan Cong to "learn from Jin Rixi", which meant that he should learn from Jin Rixi to kill his son so as not to "bring disaster to the family".

When Quan Cong received Lu Xun's letter, he cursed on the spot:

"How dare Lu Boyan bully me!"

A father who says his son is a dog is called being self-effacing.

If others really want to accept this and say that your son is a dog, who will be happy if you change it?

He even said that this dog is not only evil, but will also bring disaster to your family. It is better to kill him as soon as possible and have peace of mind.

What’s the point!

Can you speak?

"I have never asked you to settle the matter regarding Shouchun's military exploits. It is because of the honor of being the great general."

"Not only do you not know good from evil, you actually dare to let me kill your son? Do you really think that I am easy to bully!"
