Chapter 1247 Everyone is crazy
Jiang Fan breathed a sigh of relief, his face a little complicated: "No...I shouldn't kill you..."
He also realized at this moment, what reason did he have to kill the other person? Everything in the world is pushing people in different directions, isn't he the same? What's more, he plays a key role in this person's change?
It makes no sense when he doesn't threaten himself.
Mu Qiuyun was stunned for a moment, but suddenly he became even more excited, his whole body was trembling, "That's it, this is right, this is you... This is you, I saw it right, you have a great background.
Hahaha... let me follow you, no matter what you do, everything in this world is boring except you!"
This reaction was even more unexpected than Jiang Fan's. His behavior and thoughts were paranoid. Could it be that he was also paranoid by nature?
But his expression never seemed like a disguise, or in other words, was this his nature? Was he just inspired by himself?
Could it be that he was born to be Young Master Yin...
Looking at him deeply, Jiang Fan did not answer, but changed the subject: "What did Sima Jing promise to Wei and Xia?"
Mu Qiuyun didn't get the answer he wanted. He looked startled, but then replied: "Ningzhou will be given to Xia State in the future. As for the King of Wei, he doesn't want land, he wants people."
Jiang Fan's heart moved slightly. The Xia Kingdom wanted land, and the King of Wei wanted people. It was very interesting.
Ningzhou is at the junction of the Three Kingdoms, guarding the Longjiang water transport route, and is an important place for the navy to open the door to the Jin Kingdom. Unexpectedly, Sima Jing actually ceded this place for the sake of the throne.
The fact that King Wei wants more people is even more worthy of consideration.
The Wei State is different from the Jin State. There have been continuous wars in history, and the barbarians from the northern frontier are constantly attacking the border. The population has always been extremely scarce. However, the Jin State is rich and stable, with a prosperous population, more than three times that of the Wei State.
It's not surprising that the King of Wei asked for the population, but the one he killed was even more vicious than the Xia Kingdom.
According to Yun Qiu's explanation, the King of Wei asked Sima Jing to take advantage of the war to plunder Jin's population and secretly send them to Wei. The required number was an astonishing two hundred thousand, and they were young and strong.
Now, in order to continue to obtain Wei's support in terms of food, armor, weapons, etc., Sima Jing has sent the Huanglong Gang to plunder more than 50,000 young men from the occupied lands and sent them to Wei.
The transportation channel is through the junction of Minzhou and Wei. No wonder Sima Jing took the lead in taking over and stabilizing Minzhou.
At this point, Jiang Fan felt that Sima Jing was also crazy, just like Mu Qiuyun. If two lunatics get together, they would definitely be able to do even more shocking things.
But these things pose no direct threat to the Qin State. Jiang Fan can't control it, and he doesn't want to control it. It's enough to be aware of it.
Then he asked someone.
"Yan Dazhi is still alive?"
"While alive, I saw that this man might be one of yours, so I didn't kill him."
Jiang Fan's heart moved slightly. What Mu Qiuyun said just now was true after studying him carefully.
"However, I'm afraid he won't live long. Sima Jing has already begun to murder him, and... the whole Su family."
Jiang Fan's expression did not change, but he was shocked: "Oh? Sima Jing also had murderous intentions towards them?"
Mu Qiuyun said: "If my guess is correct, the person who delivered the news to you was Yan Dazhi, and the one who assisted him was Sister Xiangxue. I want to hide it, but Sima Jing is not incompetent. Although he is not sure
Who did he pass the news to, but because Xiangxue sisters had no experience in this area, he discovered the flaw, and now the whole family, together with Yan Dazhi, are detained in Prince Ning's Mansion in Ningzhou."
"Tell me about the rescue method." Jiang Fan did not ask if there was any, but directly asked for a method. This made Mu Qiuyun very satisfied, which showed that in the eyes of Miss Jiang, he was a person who had methods.
"Prince Ning's Mansion is heavily guarded and protected by formations. It would be a bad idea to break through forcefully. Give me ten days to ensure that the people are sent here."
Jiang Fan nodded: "Okay. Let me ask you one more thing. Zhang Yi once sent a person named Tian Ya to contact Sima Jing. You have been in contact with Xia Kingdom. Have you seen this person recently?"
Mu Qiuyun shook his head: "For a long time, Tian Nao has been contacting Zhang Yi and Sima Jing on behalf of Zhang Yi, but for some reason, the people have been replaced in the past two months, and Tian Nao has never appeared."
Jiang Fan's heart skipped a beat, but his expression remained calm: "Who is the new person?"
"A young swordsman in black clothes named Zhuang Qu."
"Zhuang Qu... let me introduce this person."
"I have met him several times. He looks like he is in his thirties. He is not from Xia. His accent sounds a bit like he comes from Chu. The most unique thing about his appearance is his pair of unfamiliar eyes. He speaks very little, but is very powerful in action. His sword skills
Extremely superb and incredibly fast. I don’t know the specific cultivation level, but I once saw with my own eyes that a great swordsman from Prince Ning’s Mansion didn’t even have a chance to draw his sword in front of him..."
His introduction was very detailed, and Jiang Fan couldn't help but become curious about this person, but what he was more worried about now was Tian Mo's situation. If it weren't for the inconvenience, she wouldn't have had no news for so long.
It seems that he must try to investigate as soon as possible. Jiang Fan secretly decided. Farmers are too important, especially in the future. They are the main force in promoting new crops and keeping the people full. As the head of the farmer, the field mole is very important.
Next, Jiang Fan asked about the overall strategic arrangements of Sima Jing and Chu State.
After Mu Qiuyun's introduction, Jiang Fan also got a general idea.
Sima Jing used Ning and Min as the basis to capture the four western and northern states in the southern Shanxi region of Longjiang. With Wei as his back, Xia began to compete with Sima Jing. This was also the condition he negotiated with Chu, and all the remaining states and counties in southern Shanxi were returned to Chu.
State owned.
If we can cross the Longjiang River, the Chu State in the north of the Yangtze River will only have money, silk and grain, and the Chu State will not care about the prefectures and counties north of the Longjiang River, and they will all belong to Sima Jing.
This time, the Chu State's plan was not so greedy. If they could occupy the south bank of the Longjiang River, they would have achieved their goal. If they were not greedy enough, Wei and Xia would probably feel that their benefits were too little, and they would never tolerate the Chu State's excessive expansion.
There will definitely be covert interference.
The Chu State was not so ambitious and felt that it could deal with three countries at the same time. Therefore, in essence, the Chu army was a bit passive in the battle across the river. The purpose was actually very simple, to suppress Yang Wudi on the north bank of the Longjiang River and win the battle.
Time completely controls the land of southern Shanxi.
But Sima Jing is anxious. He is now actively expanding his army and frantically trying to cross the river.
Unfortunately, he was limited by warships. The Chu army supported him, but more of them were ships from the Huanglong Gang. Although the number was not small, it was a pity that they were not warships. Facing Yang Xuancao's regular navy, he had been unable to confront him head-on.
.
Sima Jing, who was in a state of anxiety, was starting from within the Jin State. On the one hand, he was trying to encourage his former supporters to start from behind, and on the other hand, he was secretly buying Jin officials in an attempt to replace Yang Wudi's family.
But again, it has not played any role for the time being. According to Mu Qiuyun's analysis, one very important point is that these people are also waiting and watching. The key point is whether Sima Jing can cross the river. If he cannot cross the Longjiang River, there is no hope of swaying Sima Jing.
