Hearing Zhang Ziyu's arrogance, not only Chen Youliang and Fang Guozhen secretly sneered, but even Lu Zhen also frowned.
The Gaoyou Army has not fought in recent years. Not only did Zhang Shicheng settle for pleasure, but Lu Zhen and other generals were also unwilling to go to the battlefield.
However, Jiangdu Army has become more and more aggressive recently.
First, they destroyed Zhao Junyong, occupied Sizhou, and then easily defeated Chen Youliang's 200,000-strong army.
Only the Song army can compare with the power of the military.
Gaoyou's army was right next to Jiangdu's army's bed, and both the kings and ministers of Zhou Dynasty were becoming more and more uneasy.
Therefore, when Chen Youliang sent people over, Zhang Shicheng finally decided to intervene after discussing with the officials to suppress the expansion of Jiangdu Army.
Having said that, Gaoyou is too close to Jiangdu Prefecture, and Zhang Shicheng does not want to completely fall out with Zhang Yangquan.
After hesitation, he decided to only send troops to contain the situation, not to attack, leaving the two families with a way out and room for maneuver.
Because of this ambivalence, although Lu Zhen was not happy with Zhang Ziyu's arrogance, after much deliberation, it was best to adopt the same strategy as the Fujian Army.
So when Zhang Ziyu expressed his position and resigned and returned to Guanyi, he also left.
Only Fang Guozhen was determined to fight against Jiangdu's army and stayed to discuss the battle plan with Chen Youliang.
A quarter of an hour later, Zuo Junbi's envoy Yin Congdao arrived.
This person is very arrogant, but Chen Youliang relies heavily on Zuo Junbi at this moment, so he treats him with great courtesy.
Although Yin Congdao was arrogant and mean, judging from his words, Zuo Junbi really wanted to join forces to choke the beast of Jiangdu Army.
After discussing for more than an hour, the three families finally reached an alliance and simultaneously sent troops to Jiangdu Army.
At that time, Chen Youliang's Han army will attract the 200,000 main force of Jiangdu's army in the Nankang and Xinzhou areas.
Fang Guozhen launched a sneak attack on Wenzhou and would try to draw Chen Youding's Fujian Army into the battle.
When the Fujian Army confronted Wenzhou's Jiangdu Army, he then bypassed Wenzhou along the coast and attacked Taizhou directly.
After capturing Taizhou, they then attacked Wenzhou's Jiangdu Army from the rear and recaptured Taizhou and Wenzhou in one fell swoop!
Zuo Junbi set out from Anqing to attack Wuweilu, but he did not have enough troops. Chen Youliang would send another 50,000 people across the river to give him command.
Although there are still more than 100,000 people in Jiangdu Prefecture, they will never dare to transfer too many easily.
When Zuo Junbi reaches Jiangdu Prefecture and joins forces with Zhang Shicheng, I believe he will not object again.
If Jiangdu Mansion can be breached and Zhang Yangquan is captured alive by then, Jiangdu's army will naturally be torn apart.
After the three parties decided on the plan, Chen Youliang came to a cabin and told the Queen Lou Yuzhen the plan.
Lou Yuzhen squeezed Chen Youliang's shoulders and said: "Your Majesty, when you were discussing just now, I found several Su Wei generals hiding nearby, peeking furtively!"
Chen Youliang frowned and said, "Isn't that reasonable? Is that brat Guang Qian taking the lead again?"
Lou Yuzhen patted him on the shoulder and said: "Don't worry, I also found Liang Rong among those people!"
Chen Youliang was stunned and said: "Liang Rong was originally in the Su Wei Army, so it's not surprising that he is with them!"
Lou Yuzhen suddenly lowered her head and whispered something to Chen Youliang.
Chen Youliang's expression changed several times. After being silent for a long time, a bright light flashed in his eyes.
"This is indeed a good idea. Let's do it tonight. We must get there before they leave!"
Late at night, Liang Rong was sleeping in his Earl's Mansion when he suddenly heard a loud "clang" and it seemed as if someone had forced the door of the Earl's Mansion open.
Liang Rong woke up immediately. His first reaction was that he was exposed. He took out a dagger from under the pillow, pointed the dagger at his chest, and wanted to commit suicide.
However, thinking of the two helpless children, he hesitated to take action.
Liang Rong thought: "Maybe it was not exposed, they were just suspicious."
Gritting his teeth, he hid the dagger under the pillow. As soon as he stood up, he heard a burst of footsteps and a group of armored and sharp-edged sergeants rushed in.
Liang Rong said angrily: "What are you doing?"
The leading general waved his hand without saying a word, and several sergeants immediately stepped forward and arrested Liang Rong.
Liang Rong struggled violently and shouted: "What do you want to do? I want to see Your Majesty! Let me see Your Majesty!"
Suddenly I felt pain in my neck and lost consciousness.
When Liang Rong woke up again, he found himself lying in a dark cell.
He slowly got up and looked around. The cell was filled with an unpleasant rancid smell.
There was silence all around.
With the light coming in through the small skylight, I can barely see the surroundings clearly.
There are several cells next to it, and there are prisoners in them. They are all hunched over, their faces cannot be seen clearly, they are motionless, and they don’t know whether they are dead or alive.
There is straw on the ground, but a lot of it is wet.
Liang Rong found some clean straw to cushion, leaned against the wall, and began to think about where his flaws were.
The most likely reason is naturally to incite the generals of the Suwei camp to see Chen Youliang's ship.
He did see a lot of important information. A total of four people met with Chen Youliang, two of whom he had met, namely Fang Guozhen and Lu Zhen.
Then it is easy to guess the remaining two people. One of them must be Zuo Junbi's envoy, and the other should be Chen Youding's envoy.
This news was very important, and of course he wanted to send it back to Jiangdu Prefecture.
However, not long after Chen Youliang moved the capital, spies from the Military Intelligence Agency had not yet sneaked into Wuchang and had not contacted him even once.
So it’s impossible for him to spread the news.
However, this is strange. Since he has no connection, why is the other party sure that he is a craftsman?
With so many generals in the guard camp peeking around, should we doubt him just because he is a surrendered general?
……
"You said Liang Rong was arrested?" Zhang Yangquan stood up suddenly and stared at Geng Si.
Geng Si said solemnly: "Yes, Chen Youliang declared to the outside world that he was a spy of our army and deliberately faked the surrender of Tianwan's army!"
Zhang Yangquan was stunned again: "Is this what Chen Youliang declared to the outside world?"
Geng Sidao: "Exactly."
Zhang Yangquan frowned. Normally, even if Chen Youliang found out that Liang Rong was faking surrender, there was no need to announce it to the outside world.
After all, having a general of the Jiangdu Army who surrendered had a certain positive impact on the morale of the Cheonwan Army, but it was a humiliation and blow to the Jiangdu Army.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
Now it is suddenly announced that the other side is just pretending to surrender, this positive influence will disappear, and the morale of Jiangdu Army will be greatly boosted.
Chen Youliang would never make such a low-level mistake.
Zhang Yangquan slowly sat back and asked again: "Did Chen Youliang mention anything in particular when he made his announcement?"
Geng Si said: "It seems that General Liang crossed the west bank dock blockade without authorization and observed the secrets of Tianwan Army, so he discovered that he was doing it carefully!"
"West Coast Pier?"
"It's like this. That day, Chen Youliang blocked the West Bank Pier in the city and sailed a boat there. It seemed that he wanted to meet someone important!"
"Did Liang Rong really go?"
"I went, but I went with several generals from the Su Wei Army!"
Zhang Yangquan nodded: "Liang Rong went with these people because he thought he could use them as cover after being discovered!"
Geng Sidao: "It should be."
Zhang Yangquan said in a deep voice: "Chen Youliang confirmed Liang Rongxizuo's identity based on this suspicion alone, and then announced it to the public. Don't you think it's suspicious?"
Geng Si hesitated for a moment: "Indeed, it is indeed suspicious!"
Zhang Yangquan pondered for a long time, his eyes flashed suddenly, and he said: "This matter is probably related to the person Chen Youliang met at the dock. Who do you think that person could be?"
Geng Si frowned and said: "The person who can make him so vigilant and blockade the dock is probably someone from other forces!"
Zhang Yangquan crossed his hands and said slowly: "Chen Youliang is meeting people from other forces at this time. What do you think it is for?"
Geng Si changed his color slightly: "Is it to deal with us?"
Zhang Yangquan looked at Geng Si: "Do you still remember that Liang Rong sent back the news that he had seen Fang Guozhen? Since Fang Guozhen colluded with Chen Youliang, wouldn't others also?"
Geng Si's face turned pale: "Could that man be Zuo Junbi's envoy?"
Zhang Yangquan took a deep breath and said: "There may also be Zhang Shicheng's envoy!"
Geng Si was surprised and said: "Wouldn't it be better for them to sit on the mountain and watch the fight between tigers? Why should they join forces with Chen Youliang?"
Zhang Yangquan was silent for a long time and said: "Maybe it's because of the big victory before. It seems that Chen Youliang abandoned those 200,000 people not only to kill Xu Shouhui, but also to win over others!"
Geng Si was shocked and said: "When you say that, it is really possible!"
Zhang Yangquan leaned on the back of his chair and said slowly: "I guess Chen Youliang just invited various envoys to discuss alliances on the ship, but the result did not go well, so he deliberately arrested Liang Rong as a spy of our army and returned the whole city
Declare!"
Geng Si lost his voice and said: "He wants these envoys to know that we already know that they have joined forces with Chen Youliang, forcing them to have no way out!"
Zhang Yangquan stood up, silently walked to the window, and opened it.
Looking at the sky, he said quietly for a long time, took a long breath, and said: "Anyway, if this speculation is correct, Liang Rong will not be in danger for the time being."
Geng Siyi cupped his hands and said: "I will immediately step up the intelligence investigation on several other rebel armies!"
Zhang Yangquan raised his hand and said: "Don't worry about Fang Guozhen and Chen Youding, Shanzhu should be able to handle it. Mainly Zhang Shicheng and Zuo Junbi, especially Zhang Shicheng!"
Geng Si cupped his hands and said, "I understand!" He turned around and left quickly.
