"Just last month, we have arrested three liars. According to their accounts, it was General Di Qin in Xiangyang City who accidentally learned that I had such a habit, so he copied several similar arrow clusters in an attempt to get away with it.
.”
“That’s why we have to take strict precautions.”
“It’s a bit heavy handed, so please don’t worry about it, dear friends.”
“So that’s what happened.” Tan Pingzhi murmured.
"Fortmaster Liu is overly worried. Our brothers are not in serious trouble. This place is dangerous and it is fundamental to be cautious. There is nothing to worry about."
“It is the subordinates of the fort lord who are probably more seriously injured. We hope that the fort lord will apologize on our behalf.”
As soon as both parties surrendered, the misunderstanding was resolved.
Tan Pingzhi coughed twice and said loudly: "Master Liu, these two are my friends. This one is the strong man Liu Yu and Liu Jinu from Jingkou. This one is Wang Mi of Langya.
Wang Zhiyuan."
As soon as he heard Wang Mi's name, Liu Fang's eyes suddenly lit up.
Good guy!
The people of Langya Wang family are so proud!
Liu Fang suddenly became serious. He felt that what was going to be discussed today must be a big deal, maybe something that could change the fate of Di Qin!
It may even change the fate of Fort Victory!
“Based on this, I didn’t expect that you could actually make friends with the Langya Wang family.”
Liu Fang perked up when he heard that the handsome young man here came from such a famous family as the Langya Wang family.
There is no need for Wang Mi to try to win over them, Liu Fang already trusts them.
“Master Liu, Liu Yu and I have defected to Beifu, and Secretary Wang is also working in Beifu.”
“Beifu soldiers?”
“You mean, you two are both generals of the Beifu Army now?” Liu Fang looked at the two of them back and forth, excited.
He stood up suddenly, rushed over excitedly, and held Tan Pingzhi's hand.
“That’s great, let’s do it!”
“This is really great!”
"The Beifu soldiers are now the most brave and capable troops in the Jin Dynasty. It is a great blessing for you to serve in them!" Old Liu was filled with joy, shook Tan Pingzhi's hand, and came to pull Liu Yu.
"If I were twenty years younger, I would do the same as you and try my best to flee to the south!"
“Also serve in the Beifu army, defeat Di Qin, and restore the Central Plains!”
Twenty years ago?
Lao Liutou, your ideas are too unrealistic!
It has only been ten years since the Beifu Army was established. Twenty years ago, there was no sign of Beifu. Where would you go to join the army?
"Master Liu, we are here this time. We really have something important to ask for." Tan Pingzhi calmed down for a while and finally brought the topic back.
"If you have anything to say, just say it. If I can help, I will do my best." Liu Fang agreed very happily, which made Wang Mi very excited.
It seems that although there was a misunderstanding at the beginning, the trip to Fort Victory went smoothly.
“The Beifu soldiers want to cooperate with Deshengbao to capture Xiangyang City together!”
Contrary to Wang Mi's expectation, Liu Fang was not excited at all after hearing this, but was a little stunned.
"We...cooperate?" Liu Fang stretched out his finger and pulled between himself and Wang Mi.
The person who was more surprised than Liu Fang was Wang Mi.
“Of course it’s us, Lord Liu Bao Mingjian, we are here today to discuss cooperation on behalf of General Xie from Beifu.”
“Brother Tan is here as a guarantee, Lord Liu can definitely trust him.”
Liu Fang's face once again showed an expression that was hard to describe. His face was black with purple, and purple with green. It was so ugly.
“Some of you don’t know. It’s not that I don’t believe you. It’s because Victory Fort cooperated with the Jin army and has been deceived too many times. I have to be cautious.”
Have been deceived?
What does it mean?
Wang Mi looked at Tan Pingzhi and shook his head. He had no clue at all.
Tan Pingzhi didn’t know, and Liu Yu would have no clue.
Wang Mi started to think about it, and suddenly an idea came to him.
Jin Army?
The Jin Army included many troops, and it definitely did not refer specifically to Beifu.
Could it be...
“Fortmaster Liu, the Jin army commander who cooperated with Victory Fort, could he be Huan Chong, General Huan of Jingzhou?”
Liu Fang took a breath and said in surprise: "How did you know?"
This is too accurate a guess!
okay!
It seems that it is Old Man Huan!
At the mention of Huan Chong, Liu Fang's forehead started to pound.
“I think back then, before Xiangyang fell to the Qin Dynasty, General Huan sent people to Desheng Fort to discuss cooperation. As a result, Xiangyang City was besieged for several months, and not a single person in General Huan’s troops was seen.”
"You have also seen the subsequent results. As of today, Xiangyang has been occupied by Di Qin for more than three years. During this period, General Huan also determined to restore Xiangyang and sent people to contact our Victory Fort many times. We have already been fooled once
Well, I shouldn’t have agreed again.”
“However, out of righteousness, I still agreed. I think you know better than me how General Huan captured Xiangyang.”
Everyone sighed, but Wang Mi laughed and said: "General Huan has passed through Xiangyang three times without entering!"
A joke made the somewhat dull atmosphere suddenly feel relaxed. Several people laughed, thinking of Huan Chong's ridiculous behavior, and they all felt helpless.
"We are all aware of Lord Liu's concerns, but this time it is the Beifu soldiers who will cooperate with Fort Desheng. Lord Liu must have heard of the reputation of the Beifu soldiers. The Beifu soldiers represent the imperial court. This time, the imperial court has made a decision.
We are determined to take back Xiangyang, not just Xiangyang, but if this battle goes well, even Xinye and Nanyang will also be Beifu's goals."
As a person who has traveled through time, Wang Mi knows the importance of drawing a big cake.
What is Xinye? Nanyang is still a hundred and eighty thousand miles away from Xiangyang. It is still uncertain whether the war can be extended there.
However, in order to stimulate Liu Fang's fighting spirit, necessary deception is also necessary.
You see, Liu Fang now has a look of expectation on his face, which shows that Wang Mi's little plan worked.
“General Xie of Beifu has a reputation far and wide, so I naturally believe him.”
He slapped his thigh and said decisively: "Okay, then I will believe you again!"
“Tell me, how to cooperate?”
Speaking of cooperation, it would be too long.
“I want to add sand.”
Add sand?
What tactic is that?
Fight by the river?
………
Three days later, in Xiangyang City.
Murong Chong, who accepted Murong Chui's assignment, did not do serious things, but walked arrogantly on the streets of Xiangyang City.
“The little lady in Xiangyang City is actually quite pretty.”
Ever since leaving the palace, Murong Chong's thoughts became more alive.
In Chang'an, he was Fu Jian's favorite. Even if he saw the young lady he liked, he would still have evil intentions but not courage, and he would have more than enough ambition but not enough strength.
However, in Xiangyang, where the sky was high and the emperor was far away, Murong Chong had already taken advantage of the break in preparing for war to eat meat several times.
