PS: Thank you Please Call Me Qiqi, Country Prince for the reward, and thank you to the eldest son of the Lu family for carefully picking out typos in this book.
Caozhou is about a hundred miles away from Kaifeng, and another sixty miles east of Caozhou. There is a continuous military tent. Here are stationed two of the Twelve Guards of the Great Zhou, the left and right leading guards of a hundred thousand troops.
The reason why Yue Le and Mi Huang turned a blind eye to Caozhou, which was so close at hand, was because they knew that if they captured Caozhou, Kaifeng would immediately take action against them.
Yue Le and Mi Huang would not break up with Pei Zhan before they were completely sure.
If Yue Le and Mi Huang are not rebellious, then the person who said this must be an idiot. The most obvious evidence that Yue Le and Mi Huang no longer regard themselves as ministers of the Great Zhou Dynasty is that the leading military guards on the left and right are now
It has been renamed the Qingzhou Army, and they took off their khaki Zhou military uniforms and put on red battle uniforms. The reason why the military uniforms were changed to red, Marshal Mi Huang of the Qingzhou Army explained, is that it looks more festive and auspicious
.
How could a person without any big plans be so meticulous in choosing the color of his clothes? Of course, this little incident also proves one thing, that is, neither Yue Le nor Mi Huang are very confident people.
.If you were confident enough, how could you be so demanding on such trivial matters?
Mi Huang was three years older than Yue Le, so he sat in the position of Grand Marshal of the Qingzhou Army. The two of them were sworn brothers, so it was natural that the eldest brother should take this position. Furthermore, when they fought against the Khitans,
Mi Huang also saved Yue Le's life. With this kind of kindness, Yue Le would never break up with Mi Huang for an empty position. However, just as Pei Zhan thought, once there is an evil heart in a person's heart,
The seeds sprouted and took root, and soon they grew into a towering tree.
Mi Huang handed the letter in his hand to Yue Le: "Look at it again. This letter... is of great significance. Brother Wei really can't make up his mind."
Yue Le took the letter but did not read it. He smiled and said, "Brother, you have read this letter no less than ten times, and you can still spot a single flower?"
Mi Huang smiled bitterly and said: "There are definitely no flowers. I just want to take a closer look to see how many conspiracies and tricks there are and how many pits are waiting for us brothers to jump into. The two letters are written by nothing.
Good men believe in women."
There is another letter on the table. What is very strange is that although the two letters are not written by the same person, and the two people are still in a hostile state, the contents of the letters are surprisingly similar. I can't believe that this
How did the two people reach such a point of understanding? If these two letters were put out in the open, they would definitely cause an uproar.
These two letters, one is from Kaifeng and the other is from Huazhou.
Yue Le snorted coldly and said: "No matter what conspiracy they have, we brothers just need to stand still and wait for the three parties to fight in a mess. All three will be injured. It is best if one or two parties are destroyed. How can we brothers do that?"
Aren’t we just getting the advantage of the fishermen? We have the advantage and just ignore them.”
Mi Huang shook his head and said, "Zhongchang, it would be great if it was as simple as you think."
He stood up and paced and said: "In the three-party war, Pei Zhan, Liu Ling, and Li Tianfang, which one of these three is easy to get along with? Liu Ling, the king of Han, has now occupied the land of sixty-three states, and his troops and horses are strong. Although
This time he sent out troops with only 100,000 troops, but he had at least 800,000 troops behind him. Li Tianfang occupied Kaifeng and controlled the little emperor Xian Yuan. It can be said that no matter what he does, no matter who he fights, he is justified.
.As long as the little emperor said that someone was rebellious, he would send out an army to attack and occupy a territory first. Although he only occupied one city in Kaifeng and had hundreds of thousands of troops, if he needed it, he could recruit more troops in Kaifeng in an instant.
Assemble a team of 100,000 people."
Yue Le said: "Even so, Pei Zhan still has an army of no less than 500,000. Even if it is true as Li Tianfang said in his letter, Pei Zhan is hiding among the troops returning south. Since he dares to come back, who knows?
Has he set up a shocking trap waiting for us to jump? These three people are too powerful, and we brothers can't afford to provoke them at the moment. Our chance is just waiting for the three of them to bite each other, and in the end
It’s best if we send troops to clean up the mess.”
Mi Huang said: "On the surface, it does look like what you said. But Zhongchang, think about it, no matter how big a hole Pei Zhan digs, can he bury Liu Ling and Li Tianfang? Liu Ling has already sent troops from Luoyang.
It has been a few months. It stands to reason that the follow-up troops of the Han army should have arrived in Huazhou long ago. Why has it not appeared for so long? The king of Han Liu Ling only sent 40,000 troops to stop them. The troops have always been elusive. Who knows the follow-up of the Han army?
Were a large group of troops waiting for the Ding'an Army on the way back south? From Brother Yiwei's point of view, the hole dug by Liu Ling is definitely not as shallow as it seems on the surface! If he has a back-up plan, he can join forces
Li Tianfang’s goal is to defeat Pei Zhan in one fell swoop until he never recovers!"
Yue Le frowned and said: "If you go by what the eldest brother said, what are Liu Ling and Li Tianfang doing together with us brothers? With the strength of the two of them, there should be no problem in destroying the 150,000 Ding'an troops who returned south.
Ah, why give us a share of the pie?"
Mi Huang sighed: "Zhongchang, can you think about things more deeply?"
He said with some annoyance: "Liu Ling's army went north, and Li Tianfang came out in full force. How can the two of them rest assured that our brothers are watching behind them? Especially Li Tianfang, when he led his army to leave Kaifeng, he was not afraid that our brothers would steal his
Home? Once Kaifeng is gone, and the little emperor Xianyuan is no longer in his hands, what will he be? Liu Ling's worry is that if he concentrates on confronting Pei Zhan from the front, our brothers will stab him in the back!
Therefore, no matter what, Liu Ling and Li Tianfang will drag us brothers along."
Yue Le raised his eyebrows and said, "Then wouldn't it be just right if we didn't go? It would make all three of them feel uncomfortable!"
Mi Huang glared at Yue Le and said, "I'm afraid that if our brothers really don't send troops, Li Tianfang will immediately declare war on us!"
Yue Le asked in confusion: "What are the benefits of Li Tianfang doing this? He wants to take over Pei Zhan's position by destroying Pei Zhan. What benefits does he gain by starting a war with us?"
Mi Huang said: "Since Liu Ling and Li Tianfang wrote to us at the same time, it means that they must have reached some kind of agreement. This agreement is based on the destruction of Pei Zhan. They will never allow this.
This matter was disturbed by our brothers, so if we can't get us to use troops against Pei Zhan, then drive us away, and drive us far away so that we don't get in the way!"
Yue Le snorted and said, "Do we have to do what they say?"
Mi Huang said: "That's not necessary."
He smiled and said: "When we send troops, there is no need to fight Pei to the death. As long as the three of them fight to the death, we will return to Kaifeng immediately. The one who will benefit the most is you and my brother!"
Yue Le thought for a while and suddenly said: "What the elder brother means is that we will give Pei Zhan a way out and let him escape. Li Tianfang and Liu Ling will definitely pursue him. But our brothers returned to attack Kaifeng. This way
If you come here, Kaifeng will be within easy reach!"
Mi Huang laughed and said: "Correct answer! If Liu Ling and Li Tianfang want us to send troops, we will send troops! As for where to fight, it is not our brothers who have the final say. As long as we occupy Kaifeng City and capture the little emperor Xianyuan, our brothers
Isn’t that what you say? When the time comes, I will make you the King of Qingzhou as my brother, and we will rule the world together as brothers. Wouldn’t it be wonderful?”
Yue Le bowed and prostrated: "Thank you, brother!"
Mi Huang stroked his beard and smiled, with a proud look on his face. However, he did not see that the moment Yue Le lowered his head, a sharp gaze flashed away. The coldness was like ice that has never melted for thousands of years.
, heart palpitating.
Yue Le bid farewell to Mihuang's handsome tent and returned to his big tent with his own soldiers. After returning to the big tent, Yue Le asked his soldiers to guard outside the big tent and no one was allowed to approach.
He himself vented his anger in the big tent, breaking several cups, smashing a table, and hacking up a concubine who was sleeping with him. Blood splashed on Yue Le's face, and Wen Wen
The hot blood made him calm down.
Panting, Yue Le pulled up a chair and sat down. He ordered his soldiers to clean up the big tent, pull out the concubine who was still dancing happily under him last night and bury it. He ordered his soldiers to bury a few of his most trusted men.
A general was called to discuss matters, and no one was allowed to interrupt.
After the soldiers left, Yue Le's expression gradually calmed down, but his face became more and more gloomy, and the coldness in his eyes became stronger and stronger.
"King of Qingzhou? Mi Siyuan, do you really think you are the 95th emperor?! Most of the Qingzhou army is my Yue Le's men. You want to be emperor, have you asked me yet?!"
He cursed a few words in a low voice, and then sneered and said to himself: "Do you really think that Liu Ling and Li Tianfang, the kings of Han, are fools? They will let you return to Kaifeng? The follow-up group of the Han army did not show up, and you still thought so stupidly.
That army was ambushing Pei Zhan's army halfway. You don't even think about it. How can an army of hundreds of thousands be hidden? I'm afraid that at this time... the large group of Han troops have already arrived in Jizhou, and they are joining forces with Zhu Sanqili of Jizhou.
, kill all the 250,000 Ding'an troops besieging Jizhou in one fell swoop before stopping! My good brother, stop daydreaming. When the Han army comes from the north, not only you and me, but also Li Tianfang will be
Catch him off guard, this is Liu Ling's skill!"
Standing up and stretching his muscles, Yue Le laughed to himself: "I've been acting like an idiot in front of you, do you really think I'm an idiot?"
He stared at the map, the coldness in his eyes gradually disappeared, replaced by increasingly intense heat.
In this world, there is always a fight. My big brother, you are the gun in my hand that I am playing with. When I kill enough people, I will kill you. Idiot, look at the end.
