The vanguard of the Xuanjia Army finally arrived at the city and began to enter the city in an orderly manner. The vanguard general Lei Ming also walked up to Sun Fuhu and hugged him.
Instinctively, Sun Fuhu wanted to return a military salute, but when he thought that he was no longer a member of the Jizhou Army, he lowered his half-raised hand, cupped his fists instead, and said: "General Lei, the city is ready.
We have a place to eat and rest, but please don’t disturb the people.”
Sun Fuhu's words were cold, but Lei Ming didn't take it seriously. He was also a general, and he could understand Sun Fuhu's approach, so he nodded and said: "Don't worry, General Sun, I know what to do.
"
The vanguard army entered the city, followed by the central army. General Leming finally appeared in front of Sun Fuhu. After a series of greetings, Leming led the army into the city. In the city, there were already some dignitaries.
They stood by the roadside to greet them, and prepared a lot of delicious food for the army.
There are also ten beautiful girls in their 28s among the team. They are the gifts prepared by the dignitaries for General Leming.
This is the face of the powerful. They will never be loyal to anyone. In their eyes, they only have benefits. They will get close to anyone who can bring them benefits.
Regarding this, Sun Fuhu acted as if he had never seen anything before. After he led his people back to the military camp, he ordered all the soldiers in the army to stay in the army and not to go out without orders. Try not to go out to argue with the Xuanjia army.
Just after the 100,000 Xuanjia Army successfully entered the northern barrier of Pingcheng, fast horses quickly responded. Then General An Zhiwu in Daliang City led an army of 150,000 troops and came out of the city in a mighty manner, rushing towards
Pingcheng advanced.
In this way, the battle between the Xuanjia Army and the Jizhou Army officially began.
The Xuanjia Army took the first step, and when the news reached Shile City a few days later, a huge quarrel broke out in the palace hall.
The news that King Ji appeared in Jicheng in good health has spread, which once made Beidi King Yiquxiao's expression change again and again.
First there was news that Tang Ao had been poisoned and was about to die, and then it was said that he was fine. And these news were all released by Jizhou on his own initiative. What on earth did they... what did they want to do?
Yi Quxiao has never been so worried, nor has he ever been as entangled as he is now.
What he had to admit was that he was indeed frightened by the Jizhou Army, especially since he had already had a shadow in his heart about Ji Wang Tang Ao.
This person seems to be able to predict everything before the enemy and make arrangements. But if anyone who is his enemy does something wrong, he will fall into his trap and be hit hard. Dadi once suffered a lot.
He suffered so little loss that he even lost the king at one point.
How can such a person be easy to get along with?
When he got the news that this person was seriously injured and could not survive, Yiquxiao was really happy. He thought that his chance had come, and Dadi's chance had come.
But now, it is said that this person is fine. What is going on? Which one is true and which one is false?
Yi Quxiao hesitated, so he summoned the important ministers of Dadi, hoping to discuss a result. Who would have thought that when everyone got together, there would be a huge quarrel.
Among them, Gongsun Wen, the patriarch of the Gongsun family, and Cheng Situo, the chief of the Cheng family, directly expressed their attitude, that is, it would not be easy to become an enemy of the Jizhou army until the situation is clear.
Among them, Cheng Zuofu of the Cheng family stood up and shouted directly with his fat body: "Everyone, haven't you suffered enough losses in front of the Jizhou Army? It has only been so long that everyone has forgotten the previous defeat.
?"
This shout made some people shut up involuntarily, but it also made some people become angry. For example, He Suihuan, the patriarch of the He Sui family, said, "The Art of War says that victory or defeat is a common thing for military strategists. Is it just because of the defeat?"
, will there be no more wars in the future? In that case, Dadi will be destroyed."
"Hmph! It sounds easy, but in fact, he is just a captured person." Chengzuo Fu was not good at talking about his skills, but when it came to his skills with words, there were few people who scared him. He muttered
One sentence.
But just this sentence made He Suihuan's face turn red.
Being captured by the Jizhou Army made He Suihuan consider it the greatest shame of his life. For this reason, he became one of the main combatants.
Of course, as the head of a clan, you cannot do things based on your whim. The more important reason is that both Gongsun Wen of the Gongsun family and Cheng Zuofu of the Cheng family have already started business with the Jizhou Army. In comparison, they
The He Sui family was completely excluded.
Over time, these two families will become stronger and stronger, and their wealth will increase. In exchange, they will decline even more. All this is something He Suihuan does not allow and does not want to see. So this time with the Jizhou Army
A war is inevitable.
"What? Chengjia kid, what are you talking about? Say it again if you dare." He Suihuan, who was stimulated, couldn't help shouting loudly.
"What? What do you want? Whether our Cheng family is good or not is not something outsiders can judge." Cheng Situo, the patriarch of the Cheng family, also stood up and spoke menacingly.
In the past, the He Sui family was ranked behind the Cheng family and was inferior in strength. Now that the Cheng family has become stronger, not even the He Sui family can compare. Seeing that people who are inferior to themselves dare to stand up and clamor, Cheng Si Tuo
How can you be polite?
When questioned by such a shout, He Suihuan could only hold his neck and swallow all his unhappiness.
"Okay, stop arguing. We are discussing important matters, not quarreling." Yiquxiao said with a long donkey face and an unhappy look on his face.
But in fact, it is something that Yiquxiao likes to see happen. If his subordinates cannot unite and fight with each other, isn't this the opportunity of becoming a king? Only when he balances this will he become more and more important.
sex.
It's just that he usually likes to see such quarrels, but now before making a decision, he certainly hopes that everyone can stick together.
When the king spoke, both Cheng Zuofu and He Suihuan wanted to show respect, so they both snorted coldly and turned away. The atmosphere in the palace also froze for this reason.
Seeing that everyone was silent, Yuan Yi, the envoy of Emperor Qian Ying who was originally a spectator, finally stood up, coughed lightly and said: "Everyone, I can understand everyone's mood. But think about it carefully.
, you are already in great danger, did you know?"
"Huh? You're like a guy. Why don't you just say half of what you're talking about? Just keep talking." After hearing this, Cheng Situo looked unhappy.
"Haha." Yuan Yi smiled softly. He was afraid that no one would answer his words and ignore him. In that case, he really didn't know what to do. But now that someone answers, everything will be easier. Now
He smiled softly and said: "Everyone, I understand your feelings. The Jizhou Army is indeed very powerful and not easy to deal with. And you have now started doing business with them, and your life is much better than before.
If it were someone else, someone would also hesitate to send troops."
These words seemed to speak to everyone's hearts, causing many people to nod silently. However, Yi Quxiao was a little anxious. He even pointed at Yuan Yi to stand up and support him in sending troops. It's good now that he actually mentioned this
After all, isn't this a bad thing?
Yuan Yi, on the other hand, smiled again and looked at Yi Quxiao with a calm look, and then continued: "Life is easier now. But I don't know if you have thought about it. You can earn a lot of money by doing business with Jizhou."
Who will benefit the most?"
No one needs to answer this question. Everyone can understand it, and of course it is Tang Ao, the King of Ji.
Speaking of which, the business between them is not equal. The items are provided by Tang Ao, and the distribution and pricing rights are all in the hands of others. It can be said that Beidi is in a completely passive situation.
Even though everyone knew it, Yuan Yi didn't mean to let anyone answer, and said: "Yes, everyone must know that it is King Ji who makes the most money, not you. Now you are just using some personal clans to make money."
The slaves in the slave exchange for what they need, and it seems that they have made a lot of money. But it can be seen that if things go on like this, the strength of King Ji who makes the most will become bigger and bigger, and eventually he will be so big that even you can't shake him."
"The population of Dadi is ultimately limited. If this continues, what will happen if there is no one to exchange for it one day? Have you ever thought about what will happen?"
"The lessons learned from Goryeo and the Western Man are there. Have you ever considered whether one day you will follow in their footsteps?"
"We have a saying in Da Qian, which is that if you don't worry about the future, you will have to worry about the immediate future."
"Everyone, to put it bluntly, you are resting on your laurels. If you lose your capital one day, there will be no room for survival. And to put it bluntly, what you are doing is subsidizing the enemy."
"Most of you have met King Ji, and many of you have dealt with him. I don't think I need to explain his character. You all know it very well. He is a man with extremely ambitions. Listen,
People say that what they often say is that they are not of my race, and their hearts must be different.”
"Then let me ask, would such a person allow others to exist on the side of his bed? By that time, I am afraid that everyone will follow in the footsteps of Goryeo and Western Man."
After talking, Yuan Yi considered the problem from Di Ren's point of view, so that everyone couldn't find the right words to explain. Many people also nodded continuously, obviously
They agree with this statement.
Seeing that someone was supporting him, Yuan Yi smiled again and said: "You must already know that our Xuanjia Army has sent 250,000 troops out of Daliang, and the vanguard has directly occupied Pingcheng. Next, we will cross the Luanhe River and enter
Liaozhou.”
"Everyone in Liaozhou knows that it was our Majesty's former fiefdom. We had a strong influence there. Before, it was just because King Ji suppressed him too hard and killed too many people that no one dared to resist.
.But as soon as our army arrives and everyone has a backbone, there will definitely be countless responders. At that time, it will not take long for Liaozhou to be recovered."
