Suzaku looked at Xuanwu: "Master Xuanwu, Master Qinglong is right. Although the Northern Expedition is a just move, it is also very dangerous to rely on the Beifu Army alone. When everyone gathers their forces in the spring of next year, will they be sure to launch a large-scale Northern Expedition?"
Bigger?"
Xuanwu shook his head: "No, time is not our friend. Now that Fu Pi has run out of food and supplies, he will ask for help from us when he can no longer survive. If he waits until Murong Chui takes care of him, then kills Zhai Zhen and Zhai Liao."
Brother, then Hebei will fall into Murong's hands. In the past, he could take his time, but now Chang'an is about to fall. Once the Xiyan army returns eastward, he cannot pacify Hebei. The hard-won results of the past few years of campaign may be destroyed.
Yu Yi, so he will definitely attack Yecheng this time without any effort, and we won't be able to waste a day."
Bai Hu gritted his teeth: "It turns out that you have colluded with Fu Pi in Ye City for a long time. Why don't you discuss these matters with us?"
Xuanwu smiled slightly: "My original intention was to let Liu Yi go into Yecheng to investigate the situation. I didn't expect Liu Yi to have the ability to contact Fu Pi directly. It is impossible for me to report the actions of every spy to you. You probably also
I don’t have the interest or patience to listen to these things.”
Qinglong said coldly: "If people like Liu Yu and Liu Yi were to spy, we would be very interested in knowing everything they did, every person they killed, and every woman they played with. Master Xuanwu,
Please believe this."
Xuanwu frowned: "I have discussed with you the matter of Liu Yu going to Chang'an to get the jade seal, and he has done a good job."
Qinglong shook his head: "I didn't say Liu Yu, but Liu Yi. He is your real target, Lord Xuanwu. He even used Liu Yu to go to Chang'an as a cover. If my memory serves me well, Liu Yi's
My best friend Meng Chang came back from the north and lived in Yecheng for a long time. He didn't meet Fu Pi by chance during the reconnaissance process, but he had planned a matchmaking to contact Fu Pi on the terms you had negotiated a long time ago.
,right?"
Xuanwu's expression did not change and he said calmly: "These are military and political measures, just like asking Fu Lai of Qingzhou to surrender. The specific actions behind them are not enough for outsiders to understand. This is also to protect these secret envoys I sent out."
Bai Hu sneered: "Yes, what a good Fu Lang, Mr. Xuanwu, this Fu Lang you recruited does not seem to regard himself as an outsider. After he came to our Jin Dynasty, he was obviously a prisoner. It would be good to save his life, but...
He walked around with all kinds of swagger, looked like a celebrity, and once he ate a piece of duck, he knew which part it was and how to cook it. At the banquet, he didn't spit in the spittoon, but asked the slave to come up and open his mouth to catch it. Last time the emperor did it
At the banquet you hosted, you openly provoked brothers Wang Guobao and Wang Chen, saying that one of them has a human face and a dog's heart, and the other has a dog's face and a human heart. These are the good people you have recruited for our Dajin!"
Xuanwu smiled slightly: "It's just a few details. Although Fu Lang is from Di, he is a famous celebrity in the north. These are just his habits. Now he has no soldiers and power, and he is using the name of a member of the Communist Party of China.
If we don't do something that attracts attention, how can we regain our former glory? But if we are more tolerant to this kind of people, more people will definitely come to join us, which will greatly reduce our losses."
Qinglong said coldly: "So you want to turn Fu Pi into the second Fu Lang? Mr. Xuanwu, I don't think it's that easy. Fu Lang is a famous person and he doesn't have any too eager thoughts about lust for power, but Fu Pi is just right.
On the contrary, he stayed in Yecheng for several years in order to turn over from a bastard. I don't think he would really give up Yecheng for some food and jump into the even more hopeless pit of Guanzhong."
Xuanwu smiled and said: "I will naturally take this into consideration. You must not disbelieve or completely believe Fu Pi. At least for him, Yecheng can be abandoned, but the army and the people loyal to him must be retained, even if they flee to
Bingzhou is also the capital for reorganizing the country in the future. Therefore, I will send the grain and grass to the edge of the Yellow River instead of directly into Yecheng. If he wants to get the grain and grass, he has to go out of the city to get it. In this case, I will not
I'm worried about what tricks he is playing."
Suzaku's eyes were bright: "Even if Fu Pi is willing to give up the city, how will Lord Xuanwu deal with the invincible Murong family cavalry? This is not Feishui, there is no water network and muddy swampland to limit the opponent's cavalry assault. Even if
Even the Beifu army may not be able to stop it."
Xuanwu said calmly: "The Murong family is no longer the Murong family of Liaodong when they took over the Central Plains. They have fought hard for several years in troubled times and still cannot complete the great cause of restoring the country. They do not have a large number of cavalry, let alone armored cavalry, and we
The Beifu army is well-equipped. As long as we use the veterans who fought in the Feishui Battle as the vanguard, they will be unstoppable and we will definitely be able to push back the Murong clan. Once we capture Yecheng, we will have a foothold in Hebei. When the time comes, the army will
Following this, the world can be settled!"
Bai Hu sneered: "So, your Beifu Army should be the vanguard, grab the most credit and get the most benefits, right?"
Xuanwu smiled and shook his head: "But at the same time, we have to take the greatest risks and suffer the most losses. If you can now come up with elite soldiers and start the Northern Expedition immediately, I will also be very happy for the Beifu Army to fight side by side with you. Let me
The Beifu army takes the lead and bears the greatest danger and the heaviest task. If you follow up with your army, just like the battle of Feishui, the benefits will not be less."
Suzaku said slowly: "The autumn harvest has just begun. At this time, our family cannot allocate grain. We can only use some of the existing grain and grass to support Lord Xuanwu's Northern Expedition. However, once you can capture Yecheng, we will definitely send troops to continue the advance."
"
Bai Hu gritted his teeth: "Since Suzaku said so, I don't have anything to say. I can't do anything else. At least I can provide the food and grass you gave Fu Pi, but I have a condition. Yecheng is mine.
Don't try to rob me. You all know the reason."
Xuanwu laughed: "Of course, Lord Baihu, it's rare for you to agree with me, so it's a shame!"
But when Xuanwu said this, his eyes turned to Qinglong. Qinglong also looked at Xuanwu calmly, his eyes sparkling with light. After a long time, he said: "We will participate in this Northern Expedition in our own way.
Yes, and we have already begun to do so."
Xuanwu stood up and picked up the wine bowl in front of him: "Everyone, we worked side by side to defeat the Qin army and defeated Feishui, which is enough to be recorded in the annals of history. Now, let us continue to create new history and achieve greater success.
Let’s welcome our future with greater victory and greater glory. Black Hand Qiankun!”
The other three people stood up and drank the wine in front of them: "Black Hand Qiankun!" However, no one saw the cold smile on the corner of Qinglong's mouth.
