Chapter 468: Coward

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Not only was the storyteller eloquent, but he was also quite knowledgeable about the history of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

Many historical biographies in Shandong were even more gossipy. In just an incense stick's time, they were eloquent. They painted a situation where the clans were divided and the people were more important than the officials. The interests of the clans crisscrossed.

Hearing this, the people below were even more intoxicated and cheered repeatedly. Many people did not hold their money bags down. When the waiter walked past with a lacquer plate, they threw out reward money.

Yu Youyao was also listening with interest. She couldn't help but throw out a small silver ingot.

After that, the storyteller changed the topic and said, Dear guests, you might not know this, but the situation in Shandong is complicated. Usually, the clans fight to the death, but in fact, it's a gourd tied to a vine. It involves a lot of things. Even an emperor can't tolerate it. All the previous emperors of the Great Zhou Dynasty have sent troops to negotiate and suppress the situation, but to no avail. Many generals even died in Shandong. What do you think we should do in Shandong?

Then, he listed the past generals who had once crusaded against Shandong. Who were these people? Who died in Shandong?

Everyone sighed.

They finally understood why Li Qiguang dared to start a rebellion like this. He had never been beaten by the Imperial Court and thought that he was invincible.

They also understood why no one dared to quell the rebellion even though there were so many generals in the court who were good at war.

It turned out that although the situation in Shandong was complicated, the Imperial Court had to have a reason to send troops. They had to have a suitable reason to convince the world to mobilize troops on a large scale before they could be conquered. Otherwise, it would be an unprovoked war. It was cruel and heartless. As long as they were not stupid, no emperor was willing to bear such an eternal infamy.

The main purpose of the Imperial Court's army was to intimidate Shandong.

In that case, if they fought lightly, they would suffer a defeat. If they fought seriously, the commoners would suffer. If they caused trouble and were infamous, they would probably not have a good ending.

In that case, since Prince Yin dared to invite himself to fight, he was really fearless. The younger generation would surpass him!

Before she could finish speaking, everyone already had a faint admiration for

Yin Huaixi.

The storyteller went deeper and deeper, breaking the words into pieces. He spoke in a simple and understandable manner, and everyone present understood.

Yu Youyao also listened attentively, sighing inwardly that experts were among the commoners.

When the storyteller arrived at one part, he slammed the wooden stick again.

Let's get back to the main topic. Speaking of which, Yin Huaixi, the heir of King You, invited his troops to the hall. That caused a commotion in the entire capital. During this period of time, regardless of gender or age, everyone in the capital has been discussing him

He mentioned a little more when the people in the capital said that Yin Huaixi was weak, crippled, sick, and couldn't take on a heavy responsibility. They said that there was no one left in the Imperial Court and they had sent a piece of trash. They also said that King You hadn't been appeased, and that Yin Huaixi was still a criminal and couldn't lead the army. In short, they made Yin Huaixi sound worthless and extremely unbearable.

Bang! On the spot, a burly man was furious. He slammed the table and shouted indignantly, F*cking bullsh*t. Yin Huaixi is treated as a cowardly turtle Yin Huaixi is young and sick, yet he still dares to go to the capital alone. I'll plead guilty. If he dares to step forward when others are cowardly turtles, I'll respect him as a man.

That's right. Those people said that Prince Yin was incompetent! Do their faces hurt now? For hundreds of years, countless generals couldn't bite down on them, and they didn't dare to. Prince Yin controlled it easily. Even if we don't continue fighting this battle, just killing the head of the Ye Residence has already showed dignity of the Imperial Court.

Haha, I've really heard a joke! Prince Yin is not capable? Prince Yin went to the battlefield at the age of twelve to fight against the Di people. How can a group of bandits in Shandong be stronger than the Di people? I'll sit and wait. Prince Yin will kill all the rebels in Shandong and return peace to the world

The crowd was emotional!

The storyteller slowly drank a cup of wine. When everyone's anger was about to be vented, he patted the wooden stick and the restaurant fell silent again.

Prince Yin led his troops to Shandong. The army was stationed in Langya Mountain, so they haven't been moving. His generals weren't confident in this battle, so they looked for Prince Yin to discuss countermeasures!

Here was the main point.

The restaurant was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop!

All eyes were focused on the storyteller, waiting for him to continue.

The storyteller did not disappoint and spoke

The general asked, Does Head General Yin have a good plan for the battle in Shandong?

Prince Yin said, Do you have any suggestions?

The general shook his head. The situation in Shandong is too complicated. Although we've led our troops for many years, we've always raised our guns and fought. However, we can't do this in Shandong. What should we do?

As he spoke, the storyteller paused!

The waiter walked around the hall with the wooden tray. After receiving a full reward of silver, he listened to the guests urge him. The storyteller was finally satisfied and continued

Prince Yin said, The root of the chaos in Shandong lies in the alliance of the clans. If we can break the alliance of the clans, Shandong will only be a pile of loose sand. There's nothing to fear.

The general nodded. The clan alliance is like a gourd on a vine. It's not like no general in history has tried this method, but in the end, they all failed. No one in the clan alliance can break it.

Prince Yin said, The clan alliance isn't invincible. It can be broken with joint forces!

At this point, the storyteller paused again!

Some scholars understood what joined forces meant, but they did not know how Yin Huaixi had used it to break the clan alliance.

Most people were confused about what joined forces meant.

The storyteller said, Joined forces means uniting the weak to attack the strong. Li Qiguang had joined forces with the clan to resist the Imperial Court. This was the strength of uniting the weak to attack the Imperial Court. On the other hand, Prince Yin had advocated that even the officials of the eastern court of Hengshan should cooperate from the inside and out to break the clan alliance.

Immediately, a scholar slammed the table and stood up excitedly. He shouted, In ancient times, Zhang Yi implemented the same strategy in the State of Qin and broke the alliance of the six states. Today, there's Head General Yin who implemented the strategy in Shandong and broke the alliance of the clans. It's too smart. It's simply too smart. Head General Yin is really unparalleled in wisdom. The hero is so young

The storyteller also sighed and broke this strategy into pieces. Now, everyone present understood, and exclamations rose and fell.

The storyteller first talked about the joint forces strategy to sow discord and to instigate the clan to rebel against Li Qiguang

It was a shocking scene.

There was even more applause

In the future, if anyone dares to underestimate Head General Yin again, I'll spit on them. So what if he's young? They're smart. the Marquis of Ningyuan is old enough, right? He's just a coward..
