Zhuge Changkong also said: "General Wang, please be patient. If the Li family doesn't have such confidence, how can it be possible to summon everyone to this place for an alliance?"
Wang Ye then returned to his position.
Seeing him return to his position, Li Ye smiled and said: "That's right. Next, I will tell you about my Li family's trump card, so that no one will misunderstand me and go out again."
"Firstly, I, the Li family, hold high the name of Li Tang, take back our own empire, and use Li Tang's army to fight against the Han Dynasty. We will definitely win the support of the nobles in the court who are unwilling to change and the famous families in the world. It can be said that it is half done.
A hundred times more effective.”
"Secondly, I, the Li family, have brought 50,000 Japanese soldiers. They are all capable of conquering and fighting. They are good at land and water warfare. They can form a large army and help us conquer Chang'an."
"Third, through my Li family's intelligence agency Tianji Pavilion, the information from all over the world can be used by all armies to respond to changes in the Han army."
"Fourthly, the master of Tianji Pavilion has contacted Lingnan Road and Jiannan Road. Among them, Jiannan Road is willing to stand still and will block the troops coming from Southeast Asia and Tubo via the right time. Lingnan Road is willing to send troops to help, becoming the seventh
Road Army."
"Seventh Route Army?" Everyone was shocked. They didn't expect that the Eighteenth Prince had such a hidden hand: "Since it is the Seventh Route Army, why weren't you invited to join the alliance this time?"
Li Ye motioned to the masked man to tell everyone the information.
The masked man said: "The Wei family of Lingnan Province agreed to blow up the Jingjiang levee as a token of submission. Before the levee is blown up, we cannot confirm whether the other party is sincere in forming an alliance. If we invite them rashly, I'm afraid it will expose everyone."
"Blow up the Jingjiang dyke?" Zhuge Changkong almost jumped up: "If you blow up the Jingjiang dyke, wouldn't our Jiangnan West Road become Zeguo? We are all allies and you are harming us like this?"
Although Jiangnan West Road has many hills, it also has many water systems and rivers. If this embankment is really blown up, the entire Jiangnan West Road will be severely affected.
"Why are you panicking," the masked man said: "It has been raining heavily along the Yangtze River for days and the flood season is coming. We have received news that the water volume in the upper reaches of the Yangtze River has surged. If we don't blow up the Jingjiang levee, you can't save the Jingjiang levee. Why not use this levee as the Lingnan Road
Touchstone, and moreover, if the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River are not in chaos, how can we have a chance? Don’t worry, I, Mr. Li, will not treat Jiangnan West Road badly. If we act according to the plan, the benefits will only be greater."
"Humph, you Li Shi have nothing, what good can you do with empty hands?" Zhuge Changkong snorted coldly.
Seeing that he was still angry, Li Ye said: "After I get the artillery drawings, can the artillery headquarters give you an extra 10%?"
Zhuge Changkong didn't say anything this time, and the other forces began to feel indignant: "We are all allies, why should we give him an extra 10%? Don't we want to contribute?"
Seeing this, Li Ye had no choice but to increase the price again: "Since everyone thinks that this ten percent should not be given, then I will give an extra twenty percent. But the two tenths are not in vain. Jiangnan West Road needs to be the vanguard. How about starting a war with Qin Huaidao?
"
He turned to look at the other forces: "Or if there are others who are willing to be the vanguard, I can also provide 20% more artillery."
When the topic of Pioneer was mentioned, everyone was immediately speechless.
At this time, Qin Huaidao was like a tiger in the mountains. No matter who was the vanguard, he would suffer heavy losses. Even if he exchanged 20% of the artillery, it would not be cost-effective.
Zhuge Changkong rolled his eyes, and his plan came to his mind.
"Okay, then I will agree to this on behalf of my lord. When 20% of the artillery arrives, we, Jiangnan West Road, will take this as an opportunity to send troops to Chang'an!"
Seeing that the matter calmed down, Li Ye felt relieved.
With the ability of the Zhuge family, letting them serve as the vanguard can reduce a lot of losses. For Jiangnan West Road, this matter is still a good deal.
For Zhuge Changkong, what he valued was not the size of the loss, but the benefits behind the weapons and vanguard.
He had long heard about the power of artillery in the Zhuge family's intelligence network. He could obtain 20% more artillery before the war started, which would greatly increase the strength of Jiangnan West Road.
Seizing the wealth and population of the city will increase the soft power of Jiangnan West Road. It can also occupy a city and expand the scope of influence in advance. If you are lucky enough to capture Chang'an by yourself, who will be the emperor when the time comes? It may not be him. Li Shi said
Forget it.
It's just that he didn't mention these benefits explicitly.
Naturally, these people would not think of it.
Then Li Ye went on to say: "Fifth, Tianji Pavilion has secretly investigated Qin Huaidao's movements at this time. The emperor of the Han Dynasty has arrived at Sanmenxia to personally control the flood. The master of the pavilion has sent people to secretly go there. If he is lucky, maybe he will be there by now.
If we succeed in killing Qin Huaidao in Sanmenxia, the Han Dynasty will be left without a leader, and we will be able to grab something from the entire world."
Zhuge Changkong said with a smile: "I don't think it is easy for Qin Huaidao to be killed by a mere assassin sent by you despite his martial arts skills?"
Before Li Ye could speak, the masked man spoke: "Mr. Zhuge, I don't know. I heard that Qin Huaidao always loves the people like his own son. If I see some pitiful people fainting on the side of the street, or if I see someone being washed down the embankment by the flood,
And if he needs someone to save him, what do you think he will do?"
Zhuge Changkong said expressionlessly: "He will arrange for the security forces around him to take action, but you still have no chance."
"Haha," the masked man laughed: "But what if it's an emergency? If there is an emergency and the security forces around him are transferred again, do you think we have a chance?"
After hearing these words, Zhuge Changkong instantly understood the method the other party wanted to use, and his expression couldn't help but change a bit.
"I didn't expect that after Li Tang was overthrown, such a powerful intelligence agency would still be preserved. It's really impressive."
"Your Zhuge family is not bad either."
The masked man did not explain that his Tianji Pavilion was not a formal organization of Li Tang, but a private property secretly built by the Eighteenth Prince over the years. It had never been used by Li Tang for many years. If it was not hidden so deeply, how could it be possible to connect the sky?
Can't even find any clues?
"Okay, no need to say any more flattery, my Li family's trump card has been revealed. I wonder what chips you have to fight for the world?" Li Ye said.
Wang Ye of Qiannan Province took the lead: "We in Qiannan Province have 50,000 government troops and 50,000 Tengjia troops, which can be dispatched by the 18th prince."
"Okay." Li Ye suddenly cheered.
"What's the point of showing off with just one hundred thousand soldiers? Our Shannan East Road's 150,000 soldiers can defeat Chang'an's troops, so we will make an alliance." Liu Jiancheng of Shannan East Road spoke, and he came on behalf of Shannan East Road's supervisory envoy.
"I have 30,000 Henan cavalrymen, 100 chariots, 100,000 soldiers with crossbows, and several siege equipment, which can help everyone," Dianzu said.
"If you say so, I also have some siege equipment." Wang Ye added.
"Same as above." Liu Jiancheng added.
Zhuge Changkong smiled and said: "In that case, let me also talk about the family background of Jiangnan West Road."
