From Huaicheng south to Anyang County, you must pass through Yahe River.

Hanoi County’s fertile wilderness is supported by the two major water systems of Han River and Ya River, one in the south and one in the north, covering most of the land in Hanoi County.

On this day, a convoy arrived at the ferry on the banks of the Yashui River to line up to board the ship. The convoy was not large in size. Forty or fifty knights surrounded the five or six carriages in front and the carriage style was uniform, and the blue military flag of Anyang County was uniformly hung on the top of the carriage to show their ownership.

In the second carriage, there were old and young people playing chess through the chessboard. The old man was wearing a wealthy black robe and was slightly hunched over. The young man was wearing a white robe with a look of indifferent expression and twisting a black slut on his lips. He was a little hesitant. It was Luo Chuan who had met Anyang County nobleman who had met in the restaurant at the gate of Huaicheng.

The old man reached out and knocked on the chessboard in front of him, making a dull sound, "Zhu'er, the focus of playing chess is fixed. If you can't put your heart on this chessboard, how can you make a move?"

The young man was slightly stunned, and then he threw the chess piece in his hand onto the chessboard as if he had just come back to his senses. "Indeed, at this moment, Zhuo'er can't calm down and play this chess game with his grandfather."

The old man smiled and reached out to retrieve the white pieces from the chessboard one by one and put them back into the chess box. "I have been thinking about it for a few days. What will be the result?"

The young man frowned slightly, which made the cold face look a little human. He also picked up the blackzi back into the chess box like the old man, but his movements were much lighter. "A few days ago, Zhuoer also had contact with many young masters and officials in Hanoi County. From top to bottom, he exuded a smell of merchants. Even the four young masters who wore golden armor all day long were just a philanthropist who did business in the name of the military. Hanoi County's emphasis on merchants and martial arts has reached this level. The prosperous age is naturally a guest of honor. Now in the chaotic times... it is inevitable to be extremely passive."

The old man didn't say anything, just picked up chess pieces.

The young man continued, "The prefect of Hanoi County, Zhuoer, had never seen it, but the audience said that the meaning between the lines. Although this prefect is a little older and not healthy, he is not stupid after all, so he took advantage of the chaotic times and expressed kindness to Jiangzhou. Now that Beiyi invaded Shanbei County, most of the counties in Jiangzhou have the intention of sending coalition troops north. They wanted to take the opportunity to lean up and lean up, but I felt that since it was a county in the southwest Hanzhou... Hanoi County rebelled out to lean east, it was really too dangerous."

The deeper he frowned, "Hanoi County is flat and wide in the terrain, and it is the largest and most grain-producing logistics place in the southwest Hanzhou. Every year, the border troops to Sanqiu County will supply grain to the Sanqiu County, and the number of each county will exceed the sum of our Anling County and Guang County. If they really fall to Jiangzhou, I am afraid that even if our Anling County and Guang County are willing to squeeze out a larger share of grain supply, it will be difficult to support the huge number of border troops in Sanqiu County. Once Sanqiu County is forced to rebel, Guang County will naturally not be able to stop it.

The troops of the three counties can only be dependent. The four counties advance eastward, and they are afraid that they will be removed from the southwest Hanzhou before Hanzhou will be the seventh county in Jiangzhou. If Jiangzhou waits for an opportunity to advance westward, Hanoi County will inevitably be beaten to pieces. Maybe it will be a tragic situation where thousands of miles of fertile land are deserted. At that time, the powerful people of Hanoi County have no bargaining chips? Isn’t they really rely on others? But if this is the case, I, Anyang County, will not be able to protect myself..."

The old man had already put all the white pieces in the chess box. When he heard the young man's words, he smiled and shook the chess box in his hand, saying, "Playing chess, playing black and white chess, you can't win if you only stare at your own chess, let alone... more than two people make a move in this game of chess?"

The young man stared at the old man and pondered as he put the chess box on the table.

The old man just continued to say to himself, "You are always staring at the world of Hanzhou in the southwest. Although Hanoi County belongs to Hanzhou in the southwest, the hundreds of years of business transactions along the upstream and downstream of the Han River Yashui, the interests of Hanoi County and Jiangzhou counties have been closely related, including in-laws and in-laws, which one should they choose?"

The old man glanced at the thoughtful young man and picked up the black man for him, "Let's talk about Nanyi, if as you said, Hanoi County surrendered to Jiangzhou and cut off the border troops of Sanqiu County's grain supply, as long as you go to Nanyi to reveal some information in advance, Sanqiu County will be nailed to the border line if you want to send troops to attack. Nanyi has been fighting with them for hundreds of years. How important is it to cut off the relationship between Sanqiu County and Hanyi County? Once they make a death move, Nanyi can afford it. How long does Sanqiu County consume energy? Besides, you should be a solid piece of Sanqiu County? When we left Huaicheng, the boy from the Yun family in Guangjun handed out a post to see you. What do you think you are trying to do?"

He sneered and shook his head, "Although my Anyang County was classified as Sanfu County by a pervert, we are also border counties after all. If Lijun and Yongchang County suffer disasters, can I Anyang County be safe? That's why I rejected that post for you. You have to understand this matter."

The young man nodded and pondered for a moment, then looked up and asked, "The situation on both sides of Wuzhou is quite nervous. He probably is unable to enter the southwest Hanzhou, but why didn't my grandfather mention the Western Yi? Even if the mountains are closed, once the Nanyi, Li County and Yongchang County are serious, the Western Yi should take action?"

The old man shook his head, "The Western barbarians divide the north and south, and the northern branch is respected by the white tiger and black wolf. He is cruel by nature, but he has faced the rampant people in Wuzhou. He has no time to take care of them for many years. However, the fox tribe in the southern branch is something that I have not seen for many years. It is said that it is the most similar place among the four barbarians and the human kingdom. In recent years, it has been the most stable. I don't believe it if they don't enter the game, but I have to tell me where to join the game... It's really hard for me to guess," he looked at the young man and was a little surprised.

"Look, grandpa is not Lu Zu, how could he know the future? The previous inference is just following your 'if' and it's all nonsense. The general trend of the world is always recommended by people and people. It never takes the change of one person and one place as the axis. A soldier and one soldier may become the starting point for moving the whole body. Who can say it accurately? The vision is broader, and you can see more and think more. It is just that it is easier to make correct judgments when something happens..."

As soon as he finished speaking, the old man turned around and lifted the curtain. He took a letter from the outside of a cavalry who bowed and bowed. After a few glances, the smile on his face gradually faded until he was cold and frosty. He was shocked to see the young man sitting opposite him. He had never seen his grandfather, who had always been happy and angry, so he was so disobedient.

The old man handed the letter to the young man and said, "Look, what I said just now is an example."

When the young man took the letter, he saw that his expression, which was so indifferent that he had no change, became gloomy immediately, and then he was shocked, "This...!" He squeezed the letter paper with force, "How could Nanyi... break through the first line of defense in Anyang County?!!!"

The old man did not answer his question, but turned his head to look south.

He snorted coldly.
