Chapter 1912: Even though he has little skills, he still dares to do the same thing.
In Tianjin Port, inside a large warship, Zhang Liang and Ye Qingmei were kneeling face to face, playing Go and chatting.
After Ye Qingmei released Wei Zifu and her son, before she could return to Yanjing, Zhang Liang invited her to Tianjin Port, saying that he wanted to treat her to a good show.
After Ye Qingmei came with doubts, Zhang Liang didn't explain anything, but instead made indirect remarks to let her understand by herself.
After all, she was a woman who had served as a military advisor to the Liao army, so Ye Qingmei could not be an idiot.
Not long ago, a letter was sent from Yanjing. In addition to Liu Che and Liu De, the bodies of eighteen high-ranking officials of the Northern Han Dynasty who committed suicide were all burned beyond recognition.
With such an effective cover-up method, it was naturally impossible to deceive Ye Qingmei and make her realize that she had been tricked by Liu Che.
The white chess piece in Ye Qingmei's hand fell suddenly, causing the chessboard to tremble, and then asked: "So, the military advisor has already seen through Liu Che's intention?"
Zhang Liang smiled calmly, picked up a sunspot, put it down gently, and said: "The hypocrite is like a turtle in a urn, and Liu Che is like a bird in a cage, with no possibility of escape.
Liu Che is not a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death. It is not impossible that he will send out all the elites of the hypocrites at the expense of himself to retain a spark of fire for his so-called big men. This is not impossible."
Hearing this, Ye Qingmei's eyes suddenly lit up with anger.
Why did she believe Liu Che's lies? She said she would only send away her wife and children, but in fact she wanted to send away all the senior officials of the Northern Han Dynasty and many famous generals.
Huo Guang, Xue Gang and others are all the top talents in history, and they are both civil and military. They are the essence of the Northern Han Dynasty. A dozen people are even enough to support a country.
If he really allowed these people to escape Youzhou because he trusted Liu Che, no matter which prince they defected to, it would be a big disaster for the Qin army, and it would even delay the unification of the world.
I cannot bear this responsibility myself.
Ye Qingmei couldn't help clenching her fists. Liu Che was so cunning that he risked his life to go to Yanjing to help him, but he took advantage of his kindness and even tried to kill her.
At this moment, the glorious and great image of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty completely collapsed in Ye Qingmei's heart, leaving only the words "repaying kindness with hatred".
"Military advisor, since you know this, why didn't you remind me?" Ye Qingmei asked angrily.
"Why remind?" Zhang Liang asked back.
Ye Qingmei was stunned for a moment, while Zhang Liang smiled and said: "Madam, if you had known in advance and had been wary, how could you have acted so realistically? I'm afraid things would have changed, and the ending is not right now.
Is it the most perfect?
After Liu Che fell into the trap, in order to continue to mislead our army, he ordered the Han army to surrender.
Our army won this battle without any bloodshed, not only captured tens of thousands of Han soldiers, but also seized enough food and grass for half a year. This is all your credit, madam."
"But……"
Ye Qingmei subconsciously wanted to refute, but she didn't know what to say. She felt that the logic here was wrong.
I am just like a fool, being deceived by Liu Che, Huo Guang and Wei Zifu, and manipulated by Zhang Liang, but in the end the credit goes to myself?
Is there any such credit?
After a moment of silence, Ye Qing raised her eyebrows and asked again: "So, military counselor, you left Yanjing to lure Liu Che into making a move?"
"That's right, if Liang was here, Liu Che would know that such a trick would not be hidden from Liang, so naturally he would not dare to do it in front of Liang." Zhang Liang said with a smile.
Hearing this, the corner of Ye Qingmei's mouth couldn't help but twitch. The little tricks you said almost killed me.
"If Liang didn't leave, Liu Che's plan of stealing the beam and replacing the pillar would not be implemented, and he would seek a more complicated layout, so Liang followed his plan and left voluntarily to make Liu Che feel at ease.
Since things can be simplified, why make them so complicated?" Zhang Liang said with a smile.
Oh my God, did the ancients have such high IQs? This is a chain of events. If you are sold to others and you have to count the money, you can't afford to offend.
Ye Qingmei wailed in her heart. She used to think she was smart, but after what happened, she no longer dared to think so.
"Now that Liu Che is dead, Li Ling and Tian Yu have surrendered, Wei Qing has been captured, and the puppet Han Dynasty has been occupied by the Qi army, and can no longer make any waves, it is time to kill all the remnants such as Huo Guang, Xue Gang and others."
"But military advisor, Huo Guang and the others have already escaped by boat. The sea is so big, can we catch up and intercept them?"
Ye Qingmei said worriedly that now her life and fortune were tied to Zhang Liang. If Huo Guang and Xue Gang escaped, both she and Zhang Liang would definitely be punished.
Zhang Liang smiled confidently and said: "Madam, don't worry. Since Liang dares to let them go, he is sure to catch them again. Madam, do you still remember what kind of warship Huo Guang and others are on?"
After recalling it for a while, Ye Qingmei replied: "It's a small boat."
"Yes, that was a deliberate arrangement."
"Why is this?"
Ye Qingmei asked puzzledly. She knew nothing about the structure of sea ships, so naturally she didn't understand Zhang Liang's intention for such an arrangement.
"Madam, you don't know that the wind and waves in the outer sea are very strong, which are completely different from those in the inland sea.
Small charter boats cannot withstand such wind and waves, so they cannot sail in the open sea at all and can only sail along the coastline. In this case, they will definitely pass through the Jizhou Sea.
Liang has already asked the Qingzhou Navy in advance to strictly investigate the sea route going south. As long as Huo Guang and others go south, they will definitely not be able to escape."
Ye Qingmei thought to herself that Niubi could even think of such details, and then asked: "What if Huo Guang goes north?"
"If Huo Guang wants to go north, he must pass through Tianjin Port, and Mrs. Lianghe is just sitting back and waiting."
After hearing this, Ye Qingmei finally understood that Zhang Liang had already set up a dragnet.
There is no way to get through the navy guards from the north and south. Going ashore to the west is also the territory of the Qin army. It will be a matter of time before you are caught. Going east into the open sea is asking for death.
No matter in the southeast or northwest, Huo Guang and other remnants of the Northern Han Dynasty had no way out, and they were already facing a desperate situation.
At the same time, at the junction of the waters of Youzhou and Jizhou, Zhou Yu was leading the Qingbei navy to circle here, inspecting every passing ship.
Nowadays, although the war between Qin and Qing Dynasty has begun, the trade has not been completely cut off. The three Koreas, Liaodong and Hebei all have merchant ships, and the company with the largest business is naturally Wang Mang, who is engaged in military purchases with the Qin army.
There were more merchant ships traveling between the two places, which would naturally give opportunities for enemy spies to enter the interior. The Qin navy would naturally guard the major waterways and conduct strict inspections to prevent Manchu spies from entering the interior.
In addition to transporting supplies, the navy of the Qin State also had to guard and guard against merchant ships passing by in the north, so the task was naturally even heavier.
At this critical juncture, the Qin army actually completely blocked the sea route to the south. This was obviously not just targeting merchant ships and spies.
"Grand Governor, most of the day has passed. If the remnants of the puppet Han continue to go south, no matter how slow they are, they should have entered the Jizhou Sea." Jin Tai said impatiently.
Zhou Yu stood on the bow of the ship, looking at the mist rising from the sea, and said in a deep voice: "I'm afraid the remnants of the Northern Han Dynasty have discovered us, realized that we have been exposed, and dare not continue southward."
"What should we do?"
"Immediately Fei Ge sent a letter to the military advisor to tell the truth about the situation here, and at the same time sent out naval forces to search the area."
"promise."
A few hours later, a white pigeon flew into Tianjin Port.
