Chapter seven hundred and sixteen can pull one is one
"General Liu thinks highly of me. I am just doing my best. As long as the general thinks highly of me, I will wait two days and more weapons will be sent from Jiankang.'
"At that time, we can at least form a force with new equipment, about a few hundred people. After a while, there will be thousands of people!"
Seeing the situation developing like this, Zeng Jing frowned, feeling that their plan would not go forward.
Could it be that Zhiyuan had forgotten it, or did he feel that the timing was not right?
"Sir, I think it's almost time.'
Seeing more and more drunken soldiers, Zeng Jing pushed Wang Mi to wake him up.
Wang Mi smiled and said in a low voice: "The plan has changed, so don't worry."
Really changed!
"But, where is the slave?
"The slaves will listen to my orders. If the time is right, we can find a foolproof way to preserve our strength!'
Mr. Wang, is he too optimistic?
Is there really such a good way?
Don't fail to deal with Liu Laozhi, but deal with him himself!
However, looking at the situation in the military tent, it does seem relatively optimistic. Let's not talk about Wang Mi's side for the moment. Counting Zeng Jing, there are only five people.
There were more people on Liu Laozhi's side, but generally speaking, the number of people was not large. Although I didn't know if there was an ambush outside the tent, but looking at Liu Laozhi's posture, it seemed that he didn't intend to take action today.
However, they have the advantage, so they still have to guard against it.
Wang Mi's move made Zeng Jing feel very anxious. He kept looking outside the tent, really wanting to send a message to Liu Yu.
Time passed, and countless thoughts ran wildly through his mind. Wang Mi had many choices, but when things came to a close, he admitted that he was a little shaken.
It's fun to kill Liu Laozhi, but can it really eliminate the trouble?
If the prisoner dies, his soldiers will never be easily captured. Even if Liu Yu can control the situation, he will still face the situation where Beifu soldiers kill each other.
The level of casualties is not even lower than that of a small-scale battle!
Isn’t this self-depletion?
More importantly, who is the culprit that caused Liu Laozhi's sudden rebellious spirit?
What Liu Laozhi did today was entirely because he was worried that his position in Beifu would not be guaranteed and he would lose his power.
However, when Wang Mi comes, will Liu Laozhi definitely lose his military power?
Actually, not necessarily.
Liu Yu is also an extremely dangerous person!
Wang Mi, who is familiar with history, knows very well that compared to Liu Laozhi, Liu Yu is even a more dangerous person. His ambitions and abilities are far superior to Liu Laozhi!
Once Liu Laozhi is overthrown, who in the Beifu will take over?
Naturally, it was Liu Yu. He, Wang Mi, was aiming at the power of the central court. Even if he took control of Beifu for a while, he would not stay here for long.
By then, without Liu Laozhi, Liu Yu will be big in Beifu!
Once this person becomes big, the problems that the Sima family will face will be clearly placed in front of his eyes, Wang Mi.
Facing an ununified territory and endless wars, the army needs someone to command it. By then, Liu Lao will be busy fighting for power and profit in the court, and he may have already taken a big position, and there will be local matters. Who will take care of it?
If not, should we still hand over Sun Taibing to Chengrou?
Judging from Cheng Rou's current situation, it goes without saying that Tan Pingzhi and Wei Yongzhi are both Zeng Jing's loyal supporters, and Liu Muzhi, a think tank, is dedicated to assisting Zeng Jing.
Cheng Rou was surrounded by civil servants and military officers.
What he lacks is experience, qualifications, and a little opportunity.
We can't let him go this smoothly!
He must have an enemy left to spare his energy!
Suddenly, General Liu's big purple-black face shone with golden light!
“Cheng Roudong!’
"I have something else to do, could you please take a moment to talk to me."
General Liu was thinking about letting Liu Lao go and how he would explain to Sun En later. Liu Lao suddenly spoke, which shocked him.
Then he said: "Of course."
With a wave of his hand, he asked his followers to exit the tent.
In the meantime, both Yuan Fei and Cheng Rou showed no worries. Liu Lao patted his waist. The pistol he used most conveniently was pinned there. He suspected that Cheng Roudong did not want to kill him. he.
And he was also prepared. If General Liu really surprised him, he would kill him with one shot.
All the idle people were taken out of the military tent. Wang Mi went to deliver a message to Zeng Jing without stopping. On the other side, Yuan Fei refused to leave and stood nearby to eavesdrop.
Now that everyone has left, we can talk about serious business.
After drinking a lot of wine and getting many powerful new weapons, General Liu was in a good mood, and all the contradictions and pettiness just now were wiped away.
He warmly greeted Cheng Rou and came forward to talk. As soon as Liu Lao came forward, General Liu suddenly stood up.
"Wait a moment!"
"Yuan Fei, please step back first!'
Before he finished speaking, he heard the cold and strangled voice outside the military tent. Could it be that this guy was really eavesdropping?
It seems that General Liu knows his capable subordinate very well!
General Liu also noticed that Cheng Rou came to Jingkou in person this time, and it was definitely not for any reason to send him weapons.
General Liu did not admit that he had this intention. But when it comes to sending it specially, it is not credible.
Cheng Rou is now also an important minister of the imperial court. Now, Sima Yao's sudden collapse is a time when the government is unstable. Why would a humerus like him go to Sun Tailai instead of staying in the Jiankang court to stabilize the situation?
"Zhiyuan, you come here this time, maybe it's Liu Yu's intention."
"He wants to send you to spy on me?"
"Or even replace me?'
Since we have decided to talk, we might as well be candid. Although Cheng Roudong is often petty, he is generally an open man.
Liu Lao smiled: "Since the Beifu soldiers have already said this, it would be hypocritical for me to divide them further.
"Liu Yu does have such intention, but Cheng Roudong does not need to worry. In fact, I am not interested in taking charge of Chengrou.'
Of course I am not interested anymore. What I am interested in is to oust the old Sima family as soon as possible! "Is this true?'
Liu Lao's sincere eyes made General Liu think, "If this is the case, that would be great!"
It can be delayed for a while!
"certainly."
"To tell you the truth, Beifu soldiers are good at leading troops. This is obvious to everyone in Chengrou. Although I can also lead troops to fight, to be honest, I still can't stay in the military camp.
"Besides, when it comes to leading troops in battle, my level is still far behind that of Beifu soldiers.
Apart from anything else, this educated man has a rich vocabulary when he praises people, which is really pleasing to the ear.
Cheng Roudong declined a few words as usual, and then Liu Lao brought the topic to the focus of the day: I know that when the Beifu soldiers see that I often lead troops in battles, they are worried about what I think about military power, or because I am now Liu Yu
My grandson-in-law, I thought that Liu Yu wanted to hand Sun Taibing into my hands, and by then you would have no place to stand."
yes!
That's what it means.
Unexpectedly, this guy could analyze exactly what I was thinking. In that case, let’s listen to what he thinks.
Although Cheng Roudong was a military commander and hated using swords and guns, of course he would not kill important officials of the imperial court unless he could.
Also leave yourself a way out!
General Liu could not be completely suspicious of Chengrou's uncle and nephew. After all, except for a few meetings many years ago, they had almost no contact since General Liu took charge of Chengrou.
This time, communication was restored because of mutual needs.
However, the foundation of this temporary alliance is not stable. To be precise, although Xie Gong sent his most trusted nephew to form an alliance with General Liu.
It can be said that the difference is incomplete, but for many years, General Liu has not even seen Mr. Xie himself. After many years of service in the army, General Liu has always believed in one thing.
seeing is believing.
He has never even met Mr. Xie in person. He leads him with only a few letters and takes orders from him on such an important matter. This is really not worrying.
Compared with Xie Gong, Liu Lao is a person who can be suspected. At least, he can observe him face to face.
General Liu prides himself on his ability to read people. He has had a lot of contact with Liu Lao in the past six months and has a general understanding of his temperament.
Although this man was very lucky, had a bad mouth, and had too many evil intentions, after several battles, General Liu believed that Liu Lao could still be called an honest man.
Fighting on the battlefield can best test a person's true temperament. On the battlefield in Xiangyang, Cheng Rou never feared death.
As a child of a noble family, he could sneak into the military tent, hide behind the soldiers, and then jump out to grab the credit after the battle was won.
General Liu has seen this kind of thing countless times since he joined the army, and he has long been accustomed to it. However, Cheng Rou is not such a person.
In Sun Taizhong, he always takes the lead, which shows that he has a good character.
"So, you won't replace General Xie in charge of Sun Taibing?'
In fact, this is what Cheng Roudong is most concerned about.
Liu Lao can come to Sun Tai and command troops, but he must not overpower General Liu. It would be better for the general position to be vacant than for someone to overpower him.
In other words, even if the person sent by the imperial court today is not Liu Lao, he will still be liked by General Liu.
Only by promoting General Liu on the spot can he be satisfied.
"Beifu soldiers, when I came to Suntai, I already said it very vaguely. I just wanted to lead troops to fight. In other words, I just wanted to get rid of the addiction of leading troops. Who knows, I would fight all of a sudden.
Several victories.'
"Actually, I have all those failures because of the help of my brothers. It's all thanks to you. I just did some auxiliary work."
"Every time I ask for credit from the court, I always put everyone first. However, because of my background, both the court and the elders always count my contribution as the biggest one. This is not something I can control.
of.'
"However, since we are having a heart-to-heart conversation today, I will also tell you what I really think. Of course I am very concerned about Sun Taibing. This team is currently the most powerful in the Jin Dynasty.'
"I also expressed this intention with Liu Yu. In fact, I went into battle several times to kill the enemy, just because I wanted to serve the country.'
"I don't have that big ambition for power, but I think you also know the situation in the imperial court. The children of a few big families are always allowed to control important positions. Now I have that much power in Chengrou.
A military merit, so he was sent to this place."
"Please also ask Beifu soldiers to understand Liu Yu. The situation in the court is really chaotic now. The old man will have some doubts about the local situation.'
"However, I can guarantee that I have no intention of stealing Sun Tai's important position. I am just staying in Sun Tai for a while. When the situation in the court stabilizes, I will return to Jiankang.'
He wants to go back?
General Liu was dubious about this statement and was ready to inquire further.
But before he could speak, Liu Lao spoke again.
"Beifu soldier, I have told you my thoughts truthfully, what about you?"
"Don't you have anything to say?'
The opportunity is given to you, old man, be careful to seize it.
General Liu didn't mean to hide it, he really didn't understand what Liu Lao was referring to.
What could he say?
Put aside your murderous intentions for the time being and welcome him to come to Sun Tai to guide the work?
He scratched his head for a while, and Liu Lao saw that he really couldn't figure it out, so he smiled and said: "Beifu soldiers, the next choice will be related to the overall situation of the court, and it will also be a major turning point in your life. If you make the right choice, you will have a bright future.
, if you choose the wrong one, you will be in dire straits.'
"You and I have been together on the battlefield, and I regard you as a big brother. I am here to remind you maliciously that there are some things you can do, but there are some things you must be cautious about."
He said it so clearly that even a fool, General Liu, heard it and immediately became serious.
"what do you mean?"
In an instant, my vigilance was raised.
"Means nothing.
Cheng Rou waved her hand: "Beifu Bing, actually, I know a little bit about the situation on your side. Have people from Tianshi Dao contacted you?'
As soon as these words came out, General Liu's face suddenly changed, turning as black as the bottom of a pot.
"How did you know?'
His voice seemed like a boulder sinking to the bottom of the water, making people breathless.
Chengrou must have leaked the news!
Before seeing any evidence, General Liu has already identified the target.
"Beifu soldier, you don't need to be anxious or angry. It would be a good thing for you if I knew earlier.
"To tell you the truth, Mr. Xie and his gang will never succeed!'
"General, don't make wedding clothes for others in vain!'
Seeing that General Liu didn't say anything, Liu Lao continued to type: "I came from the Jiankang court, and I am the most vague about the situation at the court."
"Xie Gong and his gang want to make Sima Daozi the emperor, but Sima Daozi is not the emperor at all.'
"Cheng Rou does have many followers, but these people are just a ragtag group of people, and it is difficult for them to achieve great things.'
"He is trying his best to win over you today, but he just wants to use your strength to strengthen himself. General, at this critical moment, you have to be cautious!"
"If you just want to stabilize Sun Tai's power, your current power is also very stable and has not wavered in any way."
"But what can leading Chengrou bring you?"
"Completely control the Chengrou Army?'
"Or splitting the soil and sealing the territory?'
"no no!'
"I don't have such thoughts, don't talk nonsense." General Liu denied calmly. He never wanted to separate one side.
Liu Lao nodded, thinking so.
In fact, Cheng Roudong is not a very ambitious person. The key is that he never has too detailed plans for his actions, but just moves forward according to the situation.
