Chapter 861 860 [The ground is like a chess game]

Pei Yue's ability to reach his current position relies on countless strategizing. From the very rough bandit suppression at Hengduan Mountain at the beginning, to the recent Battle of Jiangling where the enemy was ahead of the enemy, his strategizing skills have become more and more powerful.

Mature.

Even though there was a complicated and huge situation in front of him, he still showed no sign of timidity. On the contrary, he gradually became excited and his tone of voice rose involuntarily: "If you want to make the emperor afraid, you must control enough resources, from point to line.

It finally came together."

Mr. Xi smiled and said: "Next, the emperor may suppress you or leave you idle for a period of time, but he will not murder you for the time being, because the world has not yet been peaceful, and he still needs to use this magical weapon.

Use this time to extend your influence."

Pei Yue pondered: "Imitate what Pei Yuan did back then?"

This is what Mr. Xi just said about Pei Yue's strength. Even if we put aside the relationship between Gu and Liang, the military achievements he has distributed in recent years have benefited too many people. Many people in the Western Army and the Southern Army have received military honors from him.

On this basis, by concentrating on managing contacts, it is possible to reach the heights of Pei Yuan.

When that time comes, Pei Yue may not be able to ask them to rebel, but if they are just trying to protect themselves, even Emperor Kaiping will think twice, let alone his successors.

Pei Yue couldn't help but think of Tang Youzhi who was far away in Lingzhou.

Mr. Xi knew this disciple very well and said bluntly: "Tang Youzhi can at most help you defend the foundation of the Tibetan Front Guard, but it is difficult for him to unite a force in the Western Army. You might as well think about what the emperor did after the Battle of the Western Territory.

A series of arrangements.”

Pei Yue was startled and said slowly: "The current commander of Longgong Camp is Nan'an Bosuwu. I remember that his third son is named Su Ping, and he has a very close relationship with Pei Cheng. The one guarding Hucheng is Qi Yun.

Hou Yinwei, Qi Guofu and Dingguo Prefecture have always had good relations. These two military heroes are considered family friends of the Pei family. The emperor's pardon of Pei Rong may have something to do with this relationship."

He picked up the tea cup and took a sip, his expression gradually becoming more solemn: "After Luo Huanzhang was transferred to the commander-in-chief of the South Camp of the Beijing Army, the Jinshui Camp in the West was taken over by Nanxiong Hou Zhao Xian. This man should be the emperor's confidant, just like Xiao Jin and Jiangling Guards

Baoding Bo Cai Qian. As for the head coach of Dingxi Camp, Runan Hou Liu Dingyuan, I have studied his resume, and he seems to have no special tendency."

Mr. Xi said leisurely: "In the fifteenth year of Emperor Zhongzong's reign, during the Battle of Jianhu Lake in Dingzhou, Wang Pingzhang saved Liu Dingyuan's life, but very few people knew about it."

Pei Yue suddenly said: "It turns out to be his person."

Mr. Xi said: "You reversed the victory in the Western Region and made Tang Youzhi become the top martial artist in the army. Of course he will accept your favor and let Tang Linfen join the Tibetan front guard to show his attitude. But because of this, the emperor will not

Just sitting back and watching you turn the Western Border Army into your own territory, all it takes is a series of simple transfers to disperse and weaken your connections. Just a newly rising Tang Youzhi can help you do some things when he takes up the right name.

But we absolutely cannot drive people like Liu Dingyuan and Yin Wei at will."

Pei Yue felt a chill in his heart, and a mystery that had been pressing in his heart for a long time finally had an answer.

It was at the beginning of the year that he returned to Kyoto with the power of victory, and witnessed with his own eyes at the court meeting that Wang Pingzhang caused a stir by proposing to streamline the Western Army. At that time, Pei Yue thought that Wang Pingzhang wanted to recommend Li Bingzhong as the governor of Lingzhou, although in the end this

The official position of taking over all the military and political power fell into Tang Youzhi's hands, but the streamlining of the Western Army and the transfer of generals of each battalion were carried out smoothly.

Pei Yue looked a little ugly and said slowly: "It turns out that Wang Pingzhang wanted to cut off my escape route. At that time, the emperor was openly suppressing him. The two of them actually had such a tacit understanding."

Mr. Xi said calmly: "The monarch and his ministers have known each other for decades. Although there is a struggle for authority, Wang Pingzhang understands the emperor's temperament very well. When necessary, he will put aside his resentment and cooperate with the emperor's actions. But you don't need to be disappointed because of this, even if

Even if you reacted at the time, you couldn't oppose this conspiracy."

"Sir, what you said makes sense. The emperor and Wang Pingzhang are indeed more sophisticated. However, if you lose something and gain something in the east, I am not completely without gains in the west." Pei Yue quickly adjusted his mood and said with a slight smile: "The Zangfeng Guards are extremely powerful.

Most of them are from Lingzhou, and Tang Youzhi is enough to help me stabilize my base. Furthermore, he has three Xiang troops under his command, so it would be a pity if these 40,000 people are not used to do something."

Mr. Xi was startled for a moment, and then said in surprise: "You actually made arrangements in advance."

Pei Yue said with shame: "It's not a prophetic thing, but according to the emperor's wishes at that time, the streamlined Western Army officers and soldiers were originally going to be used to supplement the Lingzhou Xiang Army. Of course Tang Youzhi wanted to keep the elite of the original Longgong Camp, which happened to be

These soldiers and I have lived and died together."

Speaking of the rise, Pei Yue stood up and walked around: "This alone is not enough. I can't waste Tang You's opportunity to govern Lingzhou. In addition to Qinyuan, the Xiangyun must be stationed in Lingzhou. Only the governor's office and the Xiangjun army will be stationed in Lingzhou."

, the local gentry and the people are closely connected to form a huge network with me as the core."

Mr. Xi held up his palms and smiled: "This is your way to break the situation."

Pei Yue stopped and turned to look at the middle-aged man, his expression getting more and more exciting, like a bolt of lightning exploding in his mind.

He has been in this world for so long that he has forgotten what he is best at.

When he was at Green Willow Manor, Pei Yue decided to join the army rather than engage in business. This was because he knew that he was weak and had no ability to protect himself. Even if he made a fortune, he would only make wedding clothes for others. But it is different now. The emperor cares.

What is important is the military power in his hands. If he turns his focus to the way of merchants, I am afraid that Emperor Kaiping will laugh out of his dreams.

However, those people could never imagine how terrifying a Xiangyun account that had penetrated into every aspect of society could be.

For example, in the Chen family back then, Emperor Kaiping and Wang Pingzhang regarded Chen Qingchen as a nuisance, but only focused on the late emperor's love for Chen Qingchen, thinking that killing this strange woman would solve the problem. However, until

Chen Qingchen has been dead for more than ten years, but her legacy can still help Chen Xizhi stir up troubles.

After several years of observation and analysis, the sprouts of capital have just appeared in some places in Daliang. What Pei Yue has in front of him is almost a clean white paper that he can smear and outline at his will.

Using the Xiangyun Hao as a carrier, he gradually holds the economy and people's livelihood in his hands. Even if he does not rush to the next stage, he can control the context of this society and even have the ability to shake the dynastic rule in the future.

Of course, the conditions required to achieve this are very stringent.

First of all, the base must be strong enough to break through the obstacles formed by officials from various states. This is obviously not difficult for Pei Yue now. As Mr. Xi said, Emperor Kaiping will not cut off his arms until the world is peaceful.

At most, it would just stop Pei Yue's rising momentum and add some beatings.

Secondly, enough talents are needed, and Pei Yue has no worries about this. The management of Xiangyun Hao, with the children of Luliu Village as the core, is 100% loyal to him. Coupled with the experience of the past few years, Pei Yue only needs a little

With some guidance, they can completely take charge of their own business and expand Pei Yue's business territory to every corner of the five southern states.

Last but not least, Xiangyunhao requires a wide variety of products that can cover the entire society. This is precisely Pei Yue's greatest advantage as a time traveler.

After sorting out these thoughts, Pei Yue said with admiration: "Sir's words woke up the dreamer."

Mr. Xi smiled and said: "During this period, you were leading troops to fight on the south bank. I went to learn the details of the severe drought in Qinzhou. Without the full support of your Xiangyun, Han Gongduan would have been difficult to solve this problem. At that time, I was thinking, since

The Xiangyun has such capabilities right now, but if it is allowed to take root in the southern region and continue to develop, what a terrifying force it will be?"

Pei Yue couldn't help but be a little surprised. Mr. Xi, who was obviously born and raised in this world, could see through business and even the power of capital at a glance. Even if this was just a superficial and general understanding, it was still shocking.

He couldn't help but sigh: "Sir, you have good taste."

Mr. Xi shook his head and said: "I just took advantage of the situation, and I am far less keen than you in seizing opportunities. If you hadn't taken advantage of the drought in Qinzhou to allow the Xiangyun to jump out of Kyoto and then gain a foothold in Chengjing, we would not have had the conditions to do so quietly.

Soundly laid out.”

Pei Yue was not overly modest. This was his plan for the Xiangyun.

Although Kyoto is a good place, there are people watching everywhere. Xiangyun Hao has gradually reached the bottleneck of its development. It cannot annex all other companies. Even if Pei Yue has the ability, he cannot do so.

Relieving the victims and saving the current situation was a double-edged sword. Not only did Pei Yue gain a wave of goodwill in the court, but it also allowed the Xiangyun's development in the southern border to be unimpeded and unimpeded by the people's wishes. It can be said that once he jumped over the dragon's gate, the world was infinitely vast.

As for how it fits today's situation, we can only say that it is God's will.

Pei Yue did not let the excitement get to his head. In his mind, the territory of thousands of miles from north to south gradually turned into a magnificent and vast chessboard, with countless chess pieces falling down, as if more than ten dragons were entangled and dancing on it.

The chess piece named Xiangyun was placed in his heart.

Luozi Tianyuan.
