He was so choked by Jiang Feng's words that he couldn't speak for a while. Wang Shouzhong took a breath, but his emotions did not get out of control and became angry.

As a vassal clan for many years, he has experienced quite a few things. Although this is the first time like today, he has become a prisoner and has never thought of it before, but after he really falls into himself, he is very clear that he must face it rationally.

This man who is less than 30 years old in front of him is not an ordinary person. In just two years, he can drive Yang Pu away and Xu Yan, and all the rebellious soldiers can bow their heads in front of him. This cannot be explained by luck.

I have been in charge of the Pinglu Prefectures for many years and I know very well how difficult it is to manage such a piece of land.

If you encounter natural disasters such as floods and droughts, refugees alone can make you suffer from a desperate situation.

The gentry's appetite is as great as that, you have to deal with them, and you must satisfy their appetite appropriately, otherwise they will be lip service and cannot let them go too far. Otherwise, more and more people will lose their land, and the ants and thieves will be in front of you.

In terms of the fertility of the land, Pinglu and the states can only be said to be unsatisfactory, slightly better than Yan, Yun and Yi, but not as good as Xu Sihai. It is between the three towns in Hebei, and it is not easy to maintain this state.

These days, there are enemies around you, and it is difficult to protect the territory without a powerful army, but a powerful army is also a bottomless pit that swallows money and food.

Wang Shouzhong felt that he had worked very hard. Unlike Shi Feng, he did not accumulate much private money, and almost all his savings were thrown into the hole of Pinglu Army. He finally managed to maintain such an army, but ended in this way, which made Wang Shouzhong feel that his dream was also disillusioned.

He even relaxed a little. Without this burden, it seemed good. If he could be a peaceful woman like Yang Pu and Shi Feng, and live a peaceful life without any trouble, why did he go to Haizhou? Isn’t it because he really couldn’t support this army?

He didn't know how Jiang Feng could support such a huge army, but he believed that Jiang Feng must be very difficult.

He was even sure that he had gathered 40,000 to 50,000 troops to invade Qingzhou in the north, and guessed that Xu and Yan were empty enough to run away, but he just didn't know why Nanyang and Caizhou didn't take the opportunity to invade east, or were there too much time?

However, all of this seems to have nothing to do with him. Before gaining control of Haizhou and Mizhou, Wang Shouzhong knew that he could not gain freedom, which was the best result.

Jiang Feng is very patient.

He believed that he could convince the other party.

Pinglu seems powerful, but once Wang Shouzhong is taken down, the apparently glorious vassal vassal will immediately split.

Wang Shouzhong has three legitimate sons, but Wang Guorong and Wang Guohua were born to Wang Shouzhong's original wife, but his original wife had passed away for many years. He promoted his fair wife, the Guo family, to the Qingzhou Guoxi, and the third son, Wang Guoxi, was born to Guoxi, which created a very subtle misalignment, and Wang Guoxi was also the legitimate son.

The eldest son of the Wang family does not have the support of the matriarchal family, but Wang Guoxi has the support of the Guo family. He himself is also known as a martial arts genius. Although Wang Shouzhong has always been harsh on his children, a discerning person can see that Wang Guoxi is a little different.

But so what? Before we can clarify who is the heir, the eldest son will always be the most respected by orthodox.

The problems within the Pinglu Army were not only this.

Now Wang Shouxin and Liu Yansi are outside. Mizhou is the important town of Pinglu Army second only to Qingzhou, but it is under the control of Wang Shouxin.

Wang Shouzhong's most confidant general Liu Yansi was far away in Haizhou, while Haizhou was originally under the jurisdiction of Huaibei. It can be said that the Pinglu army had no foundation in Haizhou. Once the situation worsened, the Pinglu army was unable to stand firm in Haizhou.

It can be said that whether it is imprisoning Wang Shouzhong or beheading Wang Shouzhong, the Pinglu army cannot be unified under a banner. No one has such prestige to integrate these troops.

For the Huai You Army, Wang Shouzhong's life and death, it is just a result of the two different ways of winning after a continuous war. When there will be some variables, it is no different for the Pinglu Army.

Jiang Feng believed that Wang Shouzhong should understand this and know how he should fight for his own interests, or maximize his interests.

"Sir Jiang, what do you want?"

"Mr. Shouzhong, the current situation is not what I want, but what you want." Jiang Feng said calmly: "You should understand very well that without you, the Pinglu Army will not exist anymore. Wang Shouxin and Liu Yansi do not have this control, and your legitimate sons do not have this strength and skills, not to mention that they are still in my hands. If you want to force it, it may be a cruel melee."

"What do I want? Haha, do you mean to give me charity?" Wang Shouzhong sneered.

"No, Lord Shouzhong, I don't think we need to go around the circle. I believe that my character and my reputation are guaranteed, otherwise Lord Shouzhong would not talk to me in this tone." Jiang Feng raised his head slightly, "We must accept this result if we succeeded and lost. Today, maybe I won a game, maybe I will lose in the hands of others tomorrow. History was written like this, nothing worth making a fuss. I think Lord Shouzhong should have had this enlightenment long ago."

Wang Shouzhong glanced at the other party, but he didn't expect that this guy would take things so thoroughly and calmly. However, now that the knife was in the other party's hands, he was fish.

"What do you want? What can I get?" Wang Shouzhong's voice became a little colder.

"Sir Shouzhong, you know very well that the Pinglu Army will no longer exist. What you can guarantee now is yourself, and of course your tribe members."

Jiang Feng knew that he was not suitable for being a negotiating interlocutor. If it were Hou Chen and Wang Miao, they would be much better than him, but he had to come here. This is the minimum guarantee of respect and credibility.

"Hmph, my clan members? Hundreds of people from the Wang clan can follow me?" Wang Shouzhong asked back.

"Of course, there are precedents in the Yang clan of Luzhou." Jiang Feng immediately followed up, but then said: "If the Wang clan is willing to stay in Qingzhou or even join Huaiyou, some people are welcome."

"Haha, they stay, do you dare to use it?" Wang Shouzhong was a little surprised. He didn't think the other party was showing good deeds, and that was meaningless.

"It seems that Lord Shouzhong has a lot of resentment and misunderstanding about someone. Yes, Huaiyou and Pinglu are enemies, and Huaiyou are now the winner, but it does not mean that we, or individuals, are irreconcilable enemies. When the Pinglu army group no longer exists, as individuals, I don't think we have any grudges. The two countries are just fighting for their own right. When this premise does not exist, everything should be let go."

"A clever tongue!" Wang Shouzhong suppressed his inner resentment and resentment. Of course, he knew that what the other party said was in line with objective reality.

This is true in itself. Could it be that the Pinglu Army no longer exists, and the entire Pinglu Army will be destroyed in ashes? This is impossible.

Look at the Rebellion Army no longer exists, but Yu Mingzhen and Lu Qiming are still powerful generals in the Huai Right Army, Yang Wu has become history, but Qin and Han dynasties and Chai Yong are still powerful generals under Jiang Feng. History is so cruel, and the losers are eliminated without any mercy.

Where should I go?

************************************************

"What should we do?" Wang Guohua looked at his brother and asked anxiously.

The Huaiyou Army had entered the city and divided the remaining 7,000 people from the Pinglu Army into four pieces, constraining them in the competition in the city.

Without weapons, the more than 7,000 Pinglu Army was like a lamb to be slaughtered. No one wanted to do so, but no one had the courage to face the blade of the Huai You Army.

"What should we do? What can we do?" Wang Guorong said indifferently: "My father fell into their hands. Huai Youjun will definitely not miss this opportunity and will not hurt his father. Now his father is a rare item in their hands, and Mizhou and Haizhou are still in our hands."

"That father..." Wang Guohua hesitated for a moment and asked tentatively.

"I don't know, who knows what my father will think?" Wang Guorong lay on the bed a little lonely, looking out the window, "There will be a result soon. Now Jiang Feng must be bargaining with his father."

"You mean maybe..." Wang Guohua's words were interrupted by Wang Guorong. "You think badly. Huai Youjun is not so stupid, and it is even less likely to be so kind. They want to use their father's life to surrender the army of Mizhou and Haizhou."

"How is this possible?" Wang Guohua said subconsciously.

"How is it impossible? What do you think my father will do? Let the second uncle and General Liu join forces to take back Qingzhou? Maybe my father's head will be hung on the Qingzhou city gate to see this scene?"

Wang Guorong had little feelings for his father. His mother passed away at the age of eight. He and his brother Wang Guohua, who was two years younger than him, were ignored a lot.

It was not only Wang Shouzhong himself who didn't care about his children, but his stepmother also ignored the two brothers, which made the two brothers feel very weak about their father, or they didn't have much family affection. Especially when Wang Guoxi was increasingly valued by his father, they didn't even have much jealousy, but instead were afraid.

Who knows that Wang Guoxi really wants to become the governor of Pinglu, what will happen to his two brothers?
