Li Yun said it very concisely, but Fan Wenjin still understood clearly. The king of Han was famous in the northwest. If Li Gui could still be a director, even if the ministers admired the king of Han, they would not collude with the envoys sent by the king of Han.
But once the news spread that Li Gui was seriously ill and his son failed to live up to expectations, the ministers naturally showed their talents.
In fact, in other words, Li Yun and others were forced.
The An brothers suddenly lost their restraint and became more and more unscrupulous. Maybe the news of the emperor's serious illness was spread intentionally by their brothers, so that everyone would know that Li Gui was not successful, Li Yuan was wise, and there was a soldier named Chen Yu.
Boundaries, it is better to meet each other as soon as possible...
Therefore, Li Yun and others also wanted to raise a banner to compete with the An brothers.
In fact, their first choice should be the Turks, but this year the Western Turkic Khan and the Western Turkic Shekui Khan were fighting vigorously. Even if they won, they could no longer provide too much care and help to these Sui people.
.
There were even rumors among the Turks that the Western Khan intended to ask Li Gui to send troops out of the pass to attack the Shekui Khan.
Maybe it's true, maybe it's false, who the hell knows, anyway, everyone only understands one thing, not to mention that the emperor is sick and about to die, even if Li Gui is not sick or in trouble, he will never go to the far Western Regions to follow She
In the battle with Kui Khan, the heroes in the northwest may be a bit "upright", but they are not stupid.
Think about it deeply, maybe this is a trick of the Western Turkic generals. What those guys want to do most now may be two things. One is to have a relationship with the Western Turkic Khan who defeated Shekui Khan, and the other is
Go back and kill Shegui Khan and receive his power and all.
Since the Turks were unreliable, the envoys of the King of Han and the King of Liang became the first choice. Moreover, the timing of their arrival in Guzang was too coincidental.
As for whether the role of the envoys from the two countries is really that important? Only God knows... The King of Han has a good reputation in the northwest, but he is too far away. Even Liang Shi is close, but his reputation is far less famous than that of the King of Han. There is no way, you say
You are also one of the princes in the world, but you just can't achieve much.
In fact, using their name to counter Li Yuan's influence in the northwest is unsatisfactory. Li Yuan is not only a serious member of the Kansai family, but also served as an official in the northwest. Now he occupies the hinterland of Kansai, away from the
The northwest is still close, this is the gap.
If he hadn't been stabbed several times by Li Po, the King of Han Dynasty, in the east, and the swords were bloody, who would have the time to grind his teeth with Fan Wenjin here now...
In fact, it boils down to one sentence. The people in the northwest are tough and admire heroes. With the help of the envoys from the King of Han, Li Yun and others can regain some of their disadvantages. But when everyone rolls up their sleeves and starts fighting, the envoys will have no effect. They have to
Victory or defeat is seen with swords and guns.
"It's a blessing to be able to discuss important matters with all the wise men and punish those who rebel against them..."
At this time, Fan Wenjin finally gritted his teeth and said something affirmative. Some things are just like this. The clearer you know, the fewer choices you have. Just like Fan Wenjin, he was thinking about running away before, but when he talked to Li Yun
Here, that idea has been given up.
There may be many people watching him outside. If he dares to take people away, his life and others' life will not be optimistic, and he may even become the trigger for the Guzang riots.
After hearing this, Li Yun finally had some joy in his eyebrows. As long as he could convince the envoy from the King of Han, then some things could be done. Especially since the envoy who looked sick in front of him was quite courageous, which made people feel more reassured.
Otherwise, if he still hesitated after saying so much, he would have no choice but to turn around and leave, leaving Ling to think of other ways, as time waits for no one.
But then, Fan Wenjin changed the subject and said: "However, the King of Han Dynasty ordered me to be here as an envoy, just for the sake of repair. Now the critical situation has become highlighted, and I have to fight with Li Gong... Wen Jin's life is small, but it is against the law."
Your Highness's original intention...how can I explain it to His Highness after I return?"
As soon as these words came out, Li Yun stared at Fan Wenjin for a long time. He actually didn't understand this attitude of seeking benefits first even if he risked his life... Where did the confidence come from?
Because the meaning in this sentence is too obvious, you can let me help, but what happens after the thing is done? There must be an explanation, otherwise our trip will be in vain.
After a long time, Li Yun twitched the corner of his mouth, smiled, and cupped his hands and said: "The king of Han sent his wise brother here just to join forces with Xiliang to fight against Li Yuan'er. Now we are working together to kill the An brothers, except the Li family. How can we do it?"
Isn’t it right with the King of Han?”
Fan Wenjin shook his head silently. The dim light of the lights reflected in his eyes, making his originally dim eyes shine like will-o'-the-wisps. It also symbolized that this man finally put aside his scruples and started to
He used his intelligence to the fullest.
"Mr. Li misunderstood. What Fan meant was that once there is chaos in Xiliang, tens of thousands of soldiers from Li, Tang and Chen will definitely take advantage of Qinzhou and other places to sneak in, so..."
Speaking of this, Fan Wenjin remained silent, so what? Anyone can understand the meaning, so there can be no chaos in Xiliang.
Li Yun's eyes flashed and he couldn't help but said: "My dear brother, do you have a good plan? Why don't you speak frankly about the current plan?"
Fan Wenjin was very familiar with this routine. Whether he was an official in Qinzhou or working for Wu Boyuan, he would increase his weight step by step in this way, and he would be able to rise above others without touching swords and guns...
And what he is doing now is no different from before. He does not want to be used as a gunman inadvertently. Only by showing his talents and having the right to speak can he protect himself to the greatest extent from the chaos.
In the blink of an eye, he had actually thought a lot. The title of King of Han was not enough to truly rely on him. Even if someone came looking for him, he looked very sincere. Hum, at the critical moment, maybe he could just be kicked out.
If you lose it, it may take a different turn.
Therefore, what he can rely on is his own intelligence. He has a good role model in front of him, and that is An Xinggui. Since he can't escape, then... he can only sink the boat and put himself to death.
The descendants are born.
It's impossible to describe Fan Wenjin's mood at this time. There was a cowardly villain jumping in his heart, and someone was shouting in his ears that heroes emerge from troubled times.
Well, no matter what, Li Yun's trip was very successful. Not only did he give Fan Wenjin a choice, but he also dragged him into the whirlpool.
But having said that, strategies are not something that anyone can just roll their eyes or have a flash of inspiration in their mind. Whether it is a conspiracy or a conspiracy, it is made up of many things.
Fan Wenjin successfully diverted the topic and pretended to be a wise man. His tactics were actually similar to those of later liars. He had to find a suitable identity first. Fan Wenjin saves trouble here. He is actually the King of Han Li Po.
The messenger sent.
Then he made shocking remarks, showed interests and prospects, etc. Li Yun was so anxious and begging for help that he jumped in without hesitation.
From night to dawn, Fan Wenjin worked hard and listened carefully to what Li Yun said, remembering them one by one and sorting them out.
At this time, Fan Wenjin was undoubtedly the embodiment of a wise man. His brain was running at a high speed, which made him feel dizzy from time to time. However, he endured the pain and drew various conclusions. He also had to always guide the topic towards what he wanted.
direction extension.
Needless to say, this is tiring, just like Li Po struggled in the refugee camp back then, but in a different way.
Li Yun's mouth was dry as he spoke, and he poured cups of tea into his stomach, which made Li Yun almost vomit. However, he became more and more convinced that King Li Ding'an of Han Dynasty had sent a wise man.
Because his calm demeanor alone is enough to make people admire him.
It can also be seen from this that the northwest is actually no different from Daizhou. It is rich in heroes who can fight and kill, but there is a shortage of resourceful people.
What is incomparable to Jin is that Jin still has a long history and can produce great people like Wang Pei, but the northwest lacks such soil.
Therefore, there are few flowers of wisdom blooming here, only thorns and weeds with extremely tenacious vitality everywhere.
During this process, Fan Wenjin finally came into contact with the true ecological distribution of the northwest. From emperors to generals, names came into his ears one by one. Their origins, their grievances, and the power they held all emerged one by one.
There is no more qualified commentator than Li Yun, the Duke of Song Dynasty. He has the distribution map of power in Guzang City and even the entire Hexi Province in his heart.
The sky was dimming, and Fan Wenjin, who was dying of sleepiness, finally sighed in his heart. It was too bad. He seemed to have been on a pirate ship. Li Gui's fellow villagers all held high positions, but few of them held military power.
Most of the generals who are accustomed to fighting are fighting outside with some tribes in Tuyuhun. The length of the battle line is so long that even Fan Wenjin cannot understand it. According to Li Yun, the Tuyuhun people have gone crazy and are running down from the high ground in groups.
, as if you can’t kill them all no matter how hard you try.
From the mouths of some prisoners of war, we learned that they encountered an extremely powerful enemy on the highlands. The enemy drove cattle and sheep from a long distance, but seemed very patient and kept encroaching on their pastures while defeating the resisting tribes.
On the other hand, all the Tuyuhun people who surrendered were taken as slaves.
The origins of these guys who suddenly appeared in the south of the highlands and began to attack the Tuyuhun tribes are hard to say. They call themselves the Fan tribe, but the Tuyuhun people believe that they are the descendants of Tufa Lilugu, the king of Nanliang.
Who the hell knows? Anyway, this was the first time Fan Wenjin heard the name of this ethnic group. He couldn't realize that a powerful empire was being born on the plateau. He just simply felt that Li Gui was very unlucky and could still survive internal and external troubles.
It’s really not easy to support it till now.
But for the current situation, it is good for Guzang City for the generals to fight outside. However, the people in Guzang City, regardless of whether they are friends or foes, have almost unanimously chosen to block the roads to prevent the outside generals from leading the troops back.
