Six hundred and eighty ninth chapter: Pre-division of spoils
Liu Wenjing smiled after hearing Wen Yanbo's words. Both of them are smart people. Talking to smart people can sometimes be troublesome, but sometimes it can be very relaxing. Liu Wenjing nodded lightly and said to Wen Yan Bo said: "Now that Mr. Wen understands it, I think this matter should be solved easily. The Jiangnan area is now occupied by Xiao Xian. This person is from the Liang clan of the Southern Dynasty and is quite prestigious in the Jiangnan area. It is indeed difficult for the King of Chu to win alone, so the King of Chu deliberately asked the King of Liang to send troops to help. However, if the King of Liang sent troops to solve King Chu's troubles, what good would it do to the King of Liang?"
The meaning of Liu Wenjing's words was very clear. If Wan He sent troops to help Du Fuwei resolve the dispute in the south, it would be equivalent to settling Du Fuwei's troubles. And it was Wan He who sent the troops, so what benefits would Wan He get? , Wen Yanbo smiled and said: "What King Yan wants is as long as the Hejian and Bohai Sea, and the rest will be handled by King Liang himself,"
Wen Yanbo directly stated his bottom line. As for the Xue Jiajun's interests, in Wen Yanbo's view, they have been deprived of him. If Wan He is in a good mood, he may be able to leave some for Xue Shixiong. If he is in a bad mood, he will directly use the remaining All the territories under him were robbed, and Xue Shixiong couldn't do anything about Wanhe. Who made Xue Jiajun the weakest? With each other's words, the two of them finalized the deal. Then, Wen Yanbo He looked at the generals beside him who were fighting more and more fiercely, raised his eyebrows, and said: "Oh, it may not be so easy for you generals to call a truce. General Luo Shou is the younger brother of King Yan, although he acted a little bit just now. I'm impulsive, but it's best not to get hurt. I wonder if Mr. Liu has any solution."
Liu Wenjing chuckled, but she was not in a hurry. She just glanced at the people who were fighting fiercely in the hall, but she smiled and said to Changsun Heng'an who was protecting them in front of them: "General Changsun, the next step is up to you."
Changsun Heng'an nodded slightly, but suddenly opened his hand and grabbed his back. He immediately took down the long bow that had been hanging on his back. Then, without taking the arrow, he strode forward like this. , pulled the long bow to the full moon, and in an instant, an astonishing fighting spirit burst out from Changsun Heng'an's body. This fighting spirit was like a sharp arrow, pointing directly at the people fighting in the hall, Suddenly everyone shuddered, instinctively stopped their movements, and turned their attention to Changsun Heng'an.
Li Jing and other Liang Jun generals were fine. When they saw Liu Wenjing's wink at them, they immediately understood the reason. Even though they took a few steps back, Kan Ling, Wang Xiongxi and the Xue brothers saw the empty bow string of the eldest grandson Heng'an. After that, their expressions couldn't help but change. At that moment, they all felt as if they were being targeted by arrows. They were so shocked that they had to give up fighting their opponents and choose to retreat. Unexpectedly, the long sword in Changsun Heng'an's hand The bow didn't even have arrows. This can only mean that Changsun Heng'an's archery skills have reached the extreme. They had heard of Changsun Heng'an's divine arrows before, but they didn't expect that Changsun Heng'an's archery skills were so good. Changsun Heng'an also had deep worries at the same time.
At this time, Liu Wenjing also stepped forward with a smile and nodded lightly to Changsun Heng'an. Changsun Heng'an then put down the long bow, turned his backhand, and the long bow returned to Changsun Heng'an's back, and Liu Wenjing also He stepped forward and smiled at Kan Ling and Wang Xiong: "Everyone, please be patient. You all came here under the orders of King Yan, General Xue and King Chu respectively. Our purpose is also the same." If they are unanimous, why hurt the friendship between the four families just for the sake of temporary anger? General Kan, General Wang, please rest assured that regarding this question of credit, King Liang will definitely give King Chu a good answer,"
After Liu Wenjing said this, Kan Ling and Wang Xiongxi glanced at each other, and Kan Ling nodded slightly. He knew that Liu Wenjing must have understood what he meant, and this was enough. Kan Ling immediately He cupped his fists and saluted everyone, and said: "I have offended you just now, please don't blame me."
Everyone here has their own secrets. Since Kan Ling put down his posture first, they naturally can't say anything more. They were fighting fiercely just now, but now they are sitting together in harmony. When the servants All the overturned and broken things were replaced, as if nothing had happened.
Li Jing coughed lightly, and then said: "Now the cities occupied by Dou Jiande and Gao Kaidao are only Pingyuan, Qijun and Bohai. Starting from Gaotang where we are, there is Pingyuan to the north and Qijun to the south. Based on your opinion, In his opinion, how our army should act,"
This was a question raised by Li Jing before, but he stopped because of Kan Ling. Now Li Jing raised this question again, and the generals also hesitated for a moment. Finally, Kan Ling was the first to express his opinion: "What about Pingyuan and Qi?" The county is under the command of Dou Jiande. Although Dou Jiande has just recovered his strength, he has just experienced a big defeat and his morale is low. I think we can attack Pingyuan and Qijun at the same time with a two-pronged approach. If General Li agrees, we will leave it to Jianghuai Let the army go south to attack Qijun,"
Because of Kan Ling's troubles, the meeting almost turned into a battlefield, so now Kan Ling has taken the initiative to take over the task, which can be regarded as a proactive gesture to the other three parties. Li Jing lowered his head and thought for a moment, nodded and said: "Dou Jiande's current strength is still good. It is not strong. The Jianghuai Army under General Kan is more than enough to deal with the bandits in Qi County. The Bohai Sea where Gao Kaidao is located is to the north of the plain. As long as we block the plain, Gao Kaidao will not be able to go to Qi County to rescue us. If If everyone has no objections, then General Kan will lead the Jianghuai army to attack Qijun. As for the plain, General Luo and Major General Xue will be responsible for the army led by the two, while I will lead the army directly. I don’t know what you think about taking the Bohai Sea.”
What Kan Ling proposed before was a two-pronged approach, with both sides marching at the same time. However, Li Jing directly proposed that three groups of soldiers and horses should march at the same time. The boldness of the strategy far exceeded that of Kan Ling. In fact, this was not because Li Jing did not want to win steadily, but only However, although it was said that the four-party coalition was about to start a war, it would be very difficult to get the four-party troops to fight together, and it might even be self-defeating. So Li Jing simply let each of the troops go their own way. The action may be better. As for the Yan army and the Xue family army to join forces, it is also a last resort. After all, the two families have too few troops. Only by joining together can it be possible to fight against Dou Jiande's army in the plains.
Li Jing's idea was actually in line with everyone's ideas. Soon everyone reached a consensus. The next few details were discussed. After the entire march route was decided, the meeting that almost turned into a competition finally came to an end. It was over, and finally everyone left one after another, leaving only Liang Jun and others. After seeing others leaving, Liu Wenjing immediately told Li Jing and others the results of the discussion he had just discussed with Wen Yanbo.
After listening to Liu Wenjing's words, Li Jing and others fell into silence. After a long while, Li Jing raised his head and said to Liu Wenjing: "Master Liu, Xiao Mian's strength is not bad. We must always pay attention to the Li family now. Shouldn't it be? If you really want to provoke Xiao Xian for Du Fuwei, doing so would be a bit outweighing the gains and losses."
Obviously Li Jing was not satisfied with the decision made by Liu Wenjing, but Liu Wenjing was the counselor of the army after all. Even if Li Jing was the commander-in-chief of the army, he could not ignore Liu Wenjing's suggestions, so Li Jing was still very polite to Liu Wenjing's words, and listened After receiving Li Jing's words, Liu Wenjing also smiled. It seemed that she had expected that Li Jing would say this. She smiled and said to Li Jing: "General Li, please don't worry. How could a subordinate really fall for Du Fuwei? Doing this will not be a good idea." It's just to temporarily appease Kan Ling. Don't say that we haven't agreed to anything now. Even if we agree to it then, it will only be a promise to Du Fuwei to help them attack Xiao Xian. As for when to attack, Xia Guan wants to , I’m afraid Du Fuwei won’t be able to spare any effort in recent years,”
"Well," hearing Liu Wenjing's words, Li Jing and others couldn't help but be startled. They could tell that Liu Wenjing had some other plans, so they couldn't help but ask: "Master Liu, Du Fuwei's subordinates Although there are not many soldiers and horses, they are still elite troops. And since the prince gave him the title of King of Chu, this guy has defeated Li Zitong and Shen Faxing under the title of the imperial court. Now for him, there is only Xiao Mian is an enemy, so how can he not spare any effort?"
"Haha," Liu Wenjing laughed at the question, and then looked at everyone's puzzled expressions and said with a smile: "Kan Ling took the initiative to attack Qi County. Firstly, it was to appease the public anger. Secondly, , he is also afraid that we will arrange more dangerous tasks for him, but he does not know that attacking Qijun is no easier than attacking Bohai. When he finishes attacking Qijun, Du Fuwei's strength will definitely be It will be greatly damaged. Within a year or two, he will definitely not have the energy to consider Jiangnan’s affairs."
"Ah," Liu Wenjing said mid-sentence, but it made everyone more confused than ever. Especially when they saw Liu Wenjing's mysterious expression, everyone felt as if a cat was tickling them. At this time, Li Jing suddenly seemed to have thought of something, He looked at Liu Wenjing with wide eyes and asked: "Mr. Liu, could it be that what you said before was..."
Seeing that Li Jing was able to guess her own arrangement, Liu Wenjing couldn't help but secretly admire her. Then Liu Wenjing nodded slightly and said with a smile: "Yes, according to the information from the disciples of Tianyin Sect, Li Mi is in Qi County."
