After looking at Yue Kaishan deeply, Qin Feng said slowly: "I don't understand what sir meant!"

Yue Kaishan took a deep breath: "Kunling County is lonely and surrounded by enemies. If you don't find a way out early, it will be a matter of time before you can destroy it. If you don't lose it by the hands of Qi, you will die by Bian Wushuang. You will be trembling and walking on thin ice. How can you not find a way out early? And the Ming Dynasty is our way out."

"Why are you optimistic that Daming will definitely help you?" Qin Feng asked afterwards.

"Because we are useful to the Ming Dynasty." Yue Kaishan affirmed. "Although we are enemies on all sides, Kunling County can also be called the place of four battles, this area has extremely critical strategic value. Whether it is alignment or the existence of Kunling County, it will make Qi and Chu choke. As long as we exist, we can hold back the considerable forces of the two countries. I think Your Majesty must have seen this clearly, otherwise why should I see me?"

Qin Feng smiled at him and said, "This gentleman is wrong. I see you not because of Kunling County, but because of yourself."

Yue Kaishan naturally didn't know the relationship between Bian Wushuang and Qin Feng. In fact, Bian Wushuang's ambition was also a strategy. His layout in Jiangnan's Ming Dynasty was even more obvious, but the Ming Dynasty would not stop it, but instead contributed to the fire, so that Bian Wushuang could accomplish something.

Bian Wushuang became a force that ruled the Chu State and competed with the Chu State Court. It would be easier to annex the Ming Dynasty in the future. At least morally, it would be more open and upright, and the resistance encountered by the people would be smaller.

While Bian Wenzhong was marching towards Jiangnan, the Ming Eagle Nest made a move and used some networks he laid out in the early years to vigorously cultivate his own power. Bian Wushuang opened a waterway from Jinghu to Jiangnan, and had to use Ning Zhiwen. In this process, the Ming Dynasty naturally completed this waterway layout that runs through Jinghu to Jiangnan.

Of course, more importantly, in the six eastern counties that Bian Wushuang regarded as his base, the Ming Kingdom had a greater power. Ning Zhiwen and his backbone of the navy left on the surface, but the power in secret was not damaged at all. Jiang Shangyan held heavy troops, and Zeng Lin was a local force that Bian Wushuang had to rely on to win over. With these reliances in hand, Qin Feng did not really pay much attention to Kunling County.

The previous plan was of course that Kunling County would support it as long as possible. In order to achieve this goal, the Ming Dynasty was not hesitant to give them some support. However, now Yue Kaishan has clearly expressed the meaning of surrender, which is another matter.

Of course, whether you really surrender is to observe your words, observe your actions, and use time to slowly verify it. It is not something that Qin Feng believed when Yue Kaishan said.

"Because of me?" Yue Kaishan looked surprised.

"No," Qin Feng nodded: "Mr. He was originally Zhou Jiyun's aide and had been dealing with logistics and supplies for Zhou Jiyun. However, when Zhou Jiyun went to pursue Jiang Tao, he temporarily took charge of the task of commanding the army to attack Kunling County. Although the six counties in the eastern part of Chu were empty at that time, his command was also remarkable. Of course, the most important and most impressive thing was that after the husband served as the position of the magistrate of Kunling County, he managed Kunling County very well."

Yue Kaishan bowed and said, "Your Majesty is wrong."

"This is not a false statement." Qin Feng smiled and said, "Chu State and Qi State have confronted each other for many years, and Kunling County is the first strategic place to bear the brunt of the brunt of the people. I don't need to ask how much hatred the people in this place are against Qi people. Logically speaking, they should be quite repulsive of the rule of Qi people, but under the rule of Mr. Wang, this sense of rejection has decreased year by year. Now Kunling County is supporting Zhou Jiyun's army with the power of a county, which is all because of Mr. Wang's contribution. Not long after our Ming Dynasty defeated Qin, Qin asked himself that he was still very kind to the people and treated the Qin people equally. However, in Qin, the fire of rebellion has not yet been extinguished. Riots against us occur frequently, and bandits are still rampant. So I know that it is easy to occupy a place, but it is difficult to make a place feel a sense of identity. This is because of this, I am very interested in Mr. Wang. We, the Ming Dynasty, are very eager for talents like Mr. Wang."

"I am so frightened!" Yue Kaishan did not expect that Qin Feng was very interested in him. "In fact, I have always admired the Ming Dynasty's strategy for governing the people. In Kunling County, many methods were to plagiarize Your Majesty's policies, such as dividing land to households, encouraging merchants, etc. Your Majesty praised you so much, which made you really ashamed."

"Mr. Yue also comes from a wealthy family, right?" Qin Feng asked thoughtfully.

"The family has been destroyed long ago." The angry look on Yue Kaishan's face flashed. "At that time, An Ruhai, the Chu State, came across the Luoying Mountains and swept across several counties, but our Grand Master of Qi did not sit still. He watched these places be killed by An Ruhai. The next family died in that catastrophe. Now there are countless people living in the entire Yue family."

"This is really an unfortunate thing." Qin Feng nodded, understanding a little why Yue Kaishan had no resistance to surrendering to the Ming Dynasty, not just because they are desperate now, but they are afraid they are still angry at Cao Tiancheng's murder strategy by using a knife.

When An Ruhai and Mr. Jiang Tao led his troops to attack Qi, Cao Tiancheng had the ability to intercept them and minimize the losses. However, Cao Tiancheng sat on the verge of these two powerful generals to confuse the land of Qi. After almost sweeping away the forces of those wealthy families, he sent troops to defeat An Ruhai and Jiang Tao. Cao Tiancheng's reform plan also began at this time.

"Sir, I believe that the power of the wealthy families you represent will definitely be defeated in this chaos in Qi State?" Qin Feng asked.

"Yes, there will be no doubt of defeat." Yue Kaishan nodded and said, "Actually, we are already lonely now. The court has begun to deploy troops in Luzhou. Who are they guarding against? It is not a matter of knowing. Once the troops are deployed, the Bozhou Rebellion will be quelled and the Ming Dynasty will not start war at this time. Your Majesty's butcher knife will definitely cut at the aristocratic families in China. The only difference is the size of the unrest. The wealthy families of the aristocratic families are all under General Zhou, but they can only watch and have no choice. Once the unrest in the country is calmed, the court will use troops to Kunling County. At that time, Bian Wushuang will never sit idly by and watch Kunling County fall into the hands of the Qi people, and will definitely attack us. Under the enemy on both sides, Kunling County will be destroyed forever."

Qin Feng nodded: "Mr. I'm very worried. But Mr. just said he was willing to defect to my Ming Dynasty. I wonder if it's just your intention, or is General Zhou also having this idea?"

"Jiyun is just trying to consolidate Kunling County with the power of the Ming Dynasty, but he will understand that seeking to join the Ming Dynasty is the only way out, and after the wealthy families in China are taken down by His Majesty, he will also understand this truth. He is one of the people that His Majesty the Emperor of the Great Qi Dynasty must kill. If he wants to protect himself, he will inevitably surrender to His Majesty."

Qin Feng said playfully: "He can also join Chu State. You know, Kunling County is not bordered by our Ming Dynasty now. We want to help you, and there is only a limited amount of what we can do!"

Yue Kaishan laughed and said, "The Great Chu itself is in danger and the country is destroyed for a long time. I am afraid that sooner or later it will be His Majesty's belongings. How can we go to a force that we cannot even protect ourselves? I mentioned Bian Wushuang's layout in Chu before, but His Majesty was indifferent and didn't take it seriously at all. Obviously, he had already been confident and became more confident."

Qin Feng laughed loudly: "Mr.'s ability to observe words and expressions is extremely powerful. Well, Bian Wushuang, I really don't take it to heart. He can't do it. Even if he can accomplish anything, it's just that my Ming Dynasty will make him accomplish. I say that, do you understand?"

Yue Kaishandi was chewing these words in his heart, but he was extremely frightened to think carefully. He looked up at Qin Feng, his face full of respect and fear.

Qin Feng smiled and handed Yue Kaishan the letter of state that had just signed with Qi State on the table: "Sir, why not take a look at this."

Yue Kaishan opened the agreement and browsed it quickly, and his expression changed drastically.

"The State of Qi actually ceded the Hengduan Mountains to the Ming Dynasty!" He looked at Qin Feng incredibly.

"For the current Qi people, Hengduan Mountains are already a chicken strait. It's a pity to abandon it. It's tasteless to eat. It's just a slaughtering army in vain, but it's useless to our Ming Dynasty. Instead of doing this, it's better to withdraw the tens of thousands of elite troops stationed here and do more important things." Qin Feng said with a smile.

"Go to do something more important!" Yue Kaishan murmured, but he already understood something in his heart and his face turned pale.

"So, Mr. Yue, what you are facing next is not only the Qi army in Luzhou, but also the Qi army withdrawn from the Hengduan Mountains. The 50,000 troops, across the two counties, will not take long to reach Kunling County. The cavalry there will be in half a month to attack your door. And as far as we know, on their way forward, they are already preparing food and supplies and other logistics support. Think about it, when the Qi army in Luzhou attacks you and you do your best to arrive, on your side, the scene of another powerful Qi army suddenly appears, I am afraid that with the ability of Zhou Jiyun, it will be difficult to resist!"

Yue Kaishan swallowed, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for telling me, I already know what to do."

Qin Feng smiled slightly: "I will leave Cao Yun in the Ming Dynasty for a few more days, and you will spend a little more time to arrange it. As for what you said before, it's better to wait until you have survived this battle. If we win, we can continue to talk. If we can't win, then everything will be over."
