When Li Quan closed his eyes and gritted his teeth, several of his cronies came back in droves. The generals recognized that these people were all Li Quan's eloquent subordinates and had some connections in the Hebei Jin Army.
Everyone came back with different expressions, but they all said something in Li Quan's ear.
Li Quan's subordinates all felt that Li Quan could always make the right judgment at any time and expand his own power just right. So they continued to wait in the Chinese military tent.
Li Quan's mind is a little confused. He knows that he is not the kind of naturally wise person. He is just betting that the world will be in chaos and everyone's bottom line will continue to decrease, so that his own style of behavior will break through the bottom line a little earlier.
.
When the power of Dai Jin was still there and the control over the local area was still tight, Li Quan went out of his way and showed his own gun and stick skills and bold green forest style.
When the Great Mongolia rose and the Mongolian army invaded like a pack of wolves, Li Quan went a step further and took the initiative to use his own force to stabilize the place. At the same time, he relied on this force to deal with various forces.
When the Mongols retreated and the Dinghai navy watched eagerly, Li Quan went a step further and revealed his identity as a member of the Red Coat Army and openly rebelled, thereby taking over several military states in northern Shandong Province with the power of the Red Coat Army.
In the final analysis, this is just a small trick. Over the past thousands of years, history books have recorded countless people like Li Quan. They grasped the pulse of troubled times in advance and used bottom-line methods to deal with enemies with bottom lines in advance. Naturally, they were always unfavorable.
However, when their enemies act without scruples, why should they fight against them?
Just like that day, the Shandong commander-in-chief made Wanyan Salara rebel and was only one step away from killing Li Quan. Li Quan finally regained the situation, relying not on his own talents but on the Mongolian attack.
At this time, Pusan Anzhen wants to negotiate with Guo Ning and betray Li Quan's interests. Who can Li Quan rely on to deal with this situation?
The Red Coat Army as a whole no longer exists, but the Mongols are still far away.
All the high-ranking officials of the Jurchens are bullshit, and the military governor of Dinghai, who was Han'er, had a deadly feud when the Mongols invaded.
what to do?
Is it possible that we really follow the example of Anzhen, hand over the territory honestly, and only become a local emperor in Binzhou?
Absolutely impossible. Li Quan's own ambitions would not allow it; Yin Chang, a wealthy man in Binzhou, would not be happy; nor would Li Quan's many subordinates who wanted to enjoy wealth and wealth with him.
Li Quan can conclude that starting from the day when they were trapped in Binzhou, these subordinates will gradually deviate from each other and break away or betray step by step. Li Quan's own family also grew up step by step in this way. If they cooperate, they will stay, and if they don't cooperate, they will leave.
He has seen a lot of things.
Besides, who can be sure that Binzhou can still be kept in their hands? Those high-ranking officials and nobles of the Jurchens have always been greedy wolves. They had their mouths full of blood today, and they will continue to eat tomorrow until only the prey is left.
A putrid skeleton.
How did it get to this point?
Li Quan had made it clear when he confessed his sincerity to Pusan Anzhen before. Guo Ning is a vicious tiger and must be suppressed at all costs. It is best to get rid of him in advance, otherwise this person will sooner or later become the king of the Jin Dynasty.
Our great enemy, why doesn’t Pusan Anzhen understand?
When Li Quan was discussing cooperation with Pusan Anzhen, he did use the military states in northeastern Shandong as bait. As a result, when Pusan Anzhen saw the fierceness of Guo Ning, he really only focused on the territory of a few military states? He
His generals and thousands of soldiers all died in Guo Ning's hands! Doesn't he care anymore?
After all, this man is also a propaganda envoy of the imperial court, the leader of a military and political force. How can he be so cool?
In this case...
Originally, this servant San Anzhen was just a tool to be used. You are not kind, so don’t blame me for being cruel!
A bold idea suddenly emerged from Li Quan's mind.
Li Quan wiped his face vigorously, only to feel that his tentacles were burning hot. He picked up the cup and drank all the water in a gulp, which only slightly relieved the raging heat that was being stirred up in his body by his heart.
He clasped his hands together, covered his face, and whispered: "We people think that we are the heroes of Huai and Xu, but the court does not take us seriously, looks down on us, and thinks that we are of despicable origin. Everyone,
This is something I didn't expect beforehand, and it's me who has dragged you down."
The generals were stunned for a moment, and then they all advised: "What did the marshal say? The Jurchens are so cunning, how could they have predicted it beforehand..."
Li Quan nodded and then shook his head: "I didn't expect that this servant San Anzhen would deceive us so easily and try to sell our interests to enrich himself. So, shall we just sit back and watch this happen?"
Everyone said: 'That's not possible!'
Li Quan paused, suddenly stood up, and said loudly: "Everyone! What happens to the court and the Jurchens? In fact, I don't care at all. As the saying goes, a good man has three gangs, and a fence has three stakes. I can get your help.
Even if it is a huge problem, I am confident that I can solve it...I am afraid that the road ahead will be bumpy and you will not be able to trust me!"
Chen Zhi, the fierce general under his command, was his classmate when he was practicing iron spears. The two had known each other for more than twenty years and had a similar mind. Seeing Li Quan's eyes flashing, Chen Zhi immediately jumped up and patted the long knife on his waist: "
Who dares not to believe the marshal! Whatever the marshal says, it is whatever he says!"
Another fierce general, Tian Si, simply took off his waist knife and slapped it on the table: "I am a rough man. I only know how to follow the command of the marshal. I can't make mistakes! Marshal You said, what do you want, I will do it immediately!"
Li Quanping stretched out his palm and pressed it down slightly, signaling the two of them not to get excited.
"Have you ever thought about why the imperial court underestimates us?" He continued to look around at the generals: "Is it because our territory is not big enough? Is it because we don't have enough soldiers and horses?"
The generals pondered for a moment, and someone said: "Actually, the territory itself is not small, and there are tens of thousands of soldiers and horses. Maybe our name is not famous enough?"
Li Quan struck his palms together and made a loud snap: "Well, Guo Ning, who was a bandit in Tangbojian, Hebei Province, is now the envoy of Xuanfu in Shandong and the military governor of Dinghai? It's because he was in Zhongdu.
If you do great things, you will have a reputation in front of the emperor! Brothers, I have a plan that can help you win a great reputation, but it will require an army to fight, I don’t know..."
All the generals laughed: "I have tied my head to my belt for a long time. Why are I afraid of fighting? When a man is born, what he wants is nothing more than fame and fortune. Marshal, tell me, how do you get this title?"
Li Quan strode out of the tent, stretched out his hand and pointed: "Do you see that direction?"
A general who was familiar with the geography opened the pavilion and looked out for a moment: "That is a highland south of the Beiqing River. There are lush trees on it, and it is called Tieling."
"Three days later, the servant San Anzhen will meet Guo Ning at the top of Tieling. Since the two of them are discussing, they each lead a small number of troops. According to what I have heard now, there are three hundred soldiers on each side.
The Jinyin Erling Mountains to the south of Tieling and the swamps and depressions along the Beiqing River to the north are sufficient to hide troops. You will follow my orders, allocate elite troops, and be careful to lurk. When the time comes, attack Tieling in one fell swoop and capture Guo Ning!"
Several subordinates were overjoyed and said repeatedly: "Brilliant plan! What a brilliant plan! Let's capture Guo Ning in front of Pu San Anzhen and let him know how powerful we are. By capturing Guo Ning, we can use it to intimidate the navy."
Surrender!”
Some people frowned and said, "Moving troops in front of that servant San Anzhen? I'm afraid I'll offend this person and make the court unhappy."
Li Quan laughed.
"Pu San Anzhen is a mean-spirited villain. His general He Shi Lie Ya Wu Ta was killed by Guo Ning. He swallowed his anger. How dare he accuse us? What's more..."
Li Quan stretched out his hand and shook it out of thin air: "If we take down Guo Ning, we will have a big advantage over Ding Haijun. What about taking down Pu San Anzhen?"
"What?"
"Most of Pusan Anzhen's troops are soldiers and horses that he has recruited and surrendered from all over Hebei in the past six months. Even if he surrenders, there will be some who have different aspirations. If we have Pusan Anzhen in our hands, this army will
The soldiers and horses will inevitably be in chaos. We will take advantage of the opportunity when they have no master, recruit their troops, and cover up Jingzhou and Cangzhou where they have a foothold!"
Li Quan drank a few words loudly, then lowered his tone and said slowly: "You think, by that time, we will have soldiers, territory, salt and profit, control of the Cao River, and the lifeblood of Zhongdu... power and power
It is several times better than the current Dinghai navy! What does the imperial court have to fear? At that time, the imperial court will not be able to come to your door to recruit people and make wishes?"
Having said this, Li Quan looked around at everyone: "How about it? Do you want to do it or not?"
This plan seems to be extremely bold and arrogant. But if it really succeeds, the benefits will be hundreds of times greater! Several generals and commanders first broke out in cold sweats, and now they rushed with enthusiasm.
"Do it, do it!" More and more generals gritted their teeth.
