At the same time, Jia Long had already led Deng Xian and Wu Yi to the prefect's mansion in the city. This was supposed to be the residence of Deng Xian, the governor of Bajun, but now the largest one in Bajun City is Jia Long, so naturally this mansion is
It was given to Jia Long. Jia Long took the two of them into the prefect's mansion, but ran directly to the study in the backyard. There were only three people who wanted to discuss things. There was no need to go to the meeting hall in the mansion, it was enough in the study.
After entering the study, the three of them sat down in order, but Jia Long sat there without speaking, just holding his head, as if thinking about something. Jia Long didn't speak, so naturally Deng Xian and Wu Yi didn't dare.
He could only make a sound and sit there honestly. After a long time, Jia Long sighed and said, "Is what Gao Pei said true or false?"
Jia Long suddenly said this nonsense. Deng Xian and Wu Yi looked at each other. Deng Xian clasped his fists and said: "Jia Gong, I will see, Gao Pei doesn't dare to behave like this."
What a huge lie! What he said is probably true!"
Jia Long took a deep breath, then exhaled for a long time, shook his head with a wry smile, and said: "So, Chengdu has really been captured? And Liu Yan and Liu Hao have also been killed by Zhao Wei and the others.
Caught?"
Wu Yi couldn't help but tremble when he heard Jia Long calling Liu Yan and Liu Hao by their first names. Wu Yi could tell from just this title that Jia Long obviously no longer regarded Liu Yan as his lord. Or maybe,
Ever since Liu Yan first entered Sichuan a few years ago, Jia Long had never regarded Liu Yan as his lord! He just didn’t understand why Jia Long would pierce this layer of paper when he, a person who had just taken refuge under him,
What's more, Wu Yi is Liu Hao's brother-in-law. Logically speaking, Jia Long should be more wary of Wu Yi! However, although he had many doubts in his heart, Wu Yi still did not express them. He understood that this was a hurdle. If he
If he had not taken the step forward, Jia Long would not have regarded him as a confidant in the future!
Jia Long didn't seem to pay attention to Wu Yi's reaction, while Deng Xian secretly glanced at Wu Yi, then turned to look at Jia Long and said: "Jia Gong! The situation has changed greatly now. We
I would like Mr. Jia to explain clearly how to choose!"
Regarding Deng Xian's question, Jia Long did not rush to answer. Instead, he turned to look at Wu Yi and asked lightly: "General Wu! Based on your understanding of Gao Pei and Yang Huai, what do you think?
What do they want to do at this moment?"
Wu Yi's body trembled again, and he looked at Jia Long with surprise. Although he knew that he would inevitably have to accept Jia Long's test when he joined Jia Long's side, he did not expect that this test would come so quickly! Although Wu Yi
He didn't want to reveal his former colleagues so quickly, but as soon as he saw Jia Long's face, Wu Yi suddenly lost any thoughts of resistance. He lowered his head and thought for a moment, and then answered honestly: "
If the general guessed it right! Gao Pei and Yang Huai must have planned to attack first, murder Duke Jia, and then seize his military power! Abandon Bajun and fight back to Chengdu!"
Although Wu Yi usually looks like a good old man, it does not mean that Wu Yi has no brains! On the contrary, among the generals of the Dongzhou Army, Wu Yi is the smartest! Regarding the thoughts of Gao Pei and Yang Huai, Wu Yi
But he guessed it very accurately! Jia Long seemed to be very satisfied with Wu Yi's answer, nodded and said: "That's right! If that Gao Pei hadn't performed so poorly just now, I'm afraid I still can't see through his thoughts! It's a pity,
They are still too impatient!"
Hearing Jia Long's words were eerie, like a voice coming out of the underworld, Wu Yi couldn't help but shudder. It turned out that Jia Long had seen all this clearly and understood what he was thinking! Fortunately, he didn't say it just now.
Wrong words, otherwise, not only would Gao Pei and Yang Huai not be saved, but they themselves would be harmed as well!
After hearing the conversation between Jia Long and Wu Yi, Deng Xian also reacted and couldn't help being shocked. He shouted: "Gao Pei and Yang Huai are so bold? Mr. Jia! Why don't I go and gather people now!"
"With that said, Deng Xian was about to get up and leave.
"Slow down!" Jia Long waved his hand and said with a ferocious smile: "Don't worry! Although it is better to strike first, Gao Pei and Yang Huai at least dare not take action tonight! There are still many people from General Wu in the Dongzhou soldiers.
, If the two of them want to take action, they must first deal with General Wu's men before they dare to send troops to deal with me! Hum hum!" After saying that, Jia Long still laughed a few times.
Jia Long's sinister laughter made Wu Yi's whole body go cold. Jia Long was indeed an old fox! With Gao Pei and Yang Huai, even if they were doubled and tied together,
He is no match for Jia Long! No wonder this man can still sustain himself for so many years with the cooperation of Liu Yan and Zhao Wei! Unknowingly, Wu Yi also began to follow Jia Long and no longer regarded Liu Yan as his own
The master!
After hearing Jia Long's words, Deng Xian sat back, but he still did not forget to clasp his fists to Jia Long and said: "Even so, Mr. Jia! As the saying goes, the nights are long and the dreams are many! Why don't we take action tonight! Give these gang thieves away
Catch them all in one fell swoop!" Deng Xian had no good impression of Gao Pei and Yang Huai from the beginning, not to mention that these two people dared to take advantage of Jia Long now. Deng Xian wanted to kill these two people immediately.
Cut!
"Deng Xian! You are too impatient!" Jia Long said lightly. To him, Gao Pei and Yang Huai were like two ants. He could crush them to death at any time! And what he said
What we are concerned about is another thing! Jia Long continued: "Even if Gao Pei and Yang Huai are eliminated! What should we do next? Bajun is still besieged, but our strength has been greatly reduced.
damage!"
"Uh." Jia Long's question also stumped Deng Xian and Wu Yi. Now Bajun is about to face the dilemma of being attacked from both sides. If it continues to be delayed, it will be a matter of time before Bajun City is breached! Wait until then.
If we come up with a solution, it will be too late! But the problem is, even now, there is no good solution!
Deng Xian lowered his head and thought for a long time, but suddenly his eyes lit up and he opened his mouth to say something. However, when he raised his head, he saw Wu Yi sitting opposite, and he took back the words that came to his mouth.
However, there were only three people in the study room. How could Deng Xian's move be hidden from the other two people? One look at his appearance and knew that he must have come up with some idea. Jia Long quickly asked: "
Deng Xian, if you have anything to say, just say it!"
Despite Jia Long's words, Deng Xian was obviously still hesitant and glanced at Wu Yi from time to time. When Deng Xian looked at him like this, Wu Yi suddenly had a very bad feeling. Could it be that the method Deng Xian came up with had something to do with him?
?In the end, Deng Xian listened to Jia Long's words, nodded, and said: "Jia Gong! There is only one way for now! That is, Kaicheng surrenders!" Before saying the last words, Deng Xian said again
After glancing at Wu Yi, he finally gritted his teeth and said those four words.
Kaicheng surrender? After hearing Deng Xian say these four words, Wu Yi was immediately shocked. Not only him, but even Jia Long was stunned for a moment. Originally, in Jia Long's mind, either he would return
Division to Chengdu, rescue Liu Yan and his son, or lead troops directly south. The prefects of several counties south of Yizhou are all under Jia Long. Once there, Jia Long can at least continue to resist the Jingzhou army! But Jia Long
But he never expected that Deng Xian would suddenly come up with such a solution for himself!
And Wu Yi also understood at this moment why Deng Xian looked at him again and again just now! Regardless of whether he truly surrendered to Jia Long, he was still Liu Hao's brother-in-law after all! Deng Xian's plan was to be like that Zhao Hao.
Betray Liu Yan! Among the three people present, the one most likely to come up with this plan is Wu Yi!
Jia Long also seemed to be curious about Wu Yihui's attitude. He turned to look at Wu Yi and asked with a strange face: "General Wu! What do you think of Deng Xian's method?"
To be fair, Deng Xian's approach is indeed the best move Jia Long can make so far! Now Yizhou's annexation by Luoyang has become a foregone conclusion! If he doesn't do this, it doesn't matter whether Jia Long returns to Chengdu
, or retreat to the south of Yizhou, in the end, you will definitely not be able to escape the fate of being pursued by the Jingzhou army! Although I have never seen the combat effectiveness of the Jingzhou Army with my own eyes, the Jingzhou Army General Zhang Liao who made a shocking appearance three days ago,
This is enough to scare all the Yizhou generals! Only by taking refuge under Luo Yang's tent can all this be avoided! Moreover, Jia Long now holds 15,000 Yizhou troops, which is a big bargaining chip!
With this bargaining chip, I believe Luo Yang will not treat Jia Long badly. At least, Jia Long's interests in Yizhou will not be much less than those of Zhao Wei and his gang!
In short, from Jia Long's perspective, Deng Xian's method is the best choice! All three people present understand this very well. However, the problem still lies in Wu Yi's identity. Wu Yi knows in his heart that he
The answer will not affect Jia Long's decision at all, but Jia Long specifically asked Wu Yi why, but he still wanted to test himself and force himself to express his position!
Deng Xian on the side seemed to understand Jia Long's intention, so after Jia Long asked this question, his eyes were fixed on Wu Yi, and he even inadvertently touched the sword on his waist with one hand.
Handle. If the answer given by Wu Yi was not satisfactory, Deng Xian would probably draw his sword immediately!
For a time, the atmosphere in the whole room became more and more uncomfortable. Wu Yi was sweating in the eyes of the two people, and his eyes kept spinning, as if he was making final thoughts. Finally, thinking
After nearly half an hour, Wu Yi gritted his teeth and opened his mouth that was white from excessive tension: "General, I agree with General Deng's opinion!"
