Xiao Mohe raised his eyebrows slightly and was not in a hurry to speak, while Zhou Que stretched out his hand to support the table and wanted to stand up, but before that, Li Xingchen spoke first:
"This is a preliminary plan of a certain person. As for whether it can be implemented, when it will be implemented, and what the final result will be, I am not sure yet, but I believe that the general should understand what he means. When the time comes, the general and Bo Qing will exchange information.
, we can definitely cooperate well.”
After a pause, Li Xingchen didn't give Zhou Que a chance to interrupt: "Of course, when I go to Jiankang Mansion this time, I will definitely present this plan to His Majesty. To be able to capture several important enemy towns in one fell swoop, we need to seize the opportunity."
It is important, but the money, food, troops, horses and personnel necessary for combat are also indispensable, and these require the central coordination and coordination of the imperial court, as well as the mutual connections and help between our localities."
Zhou Que opened his mouth and didn't know what to say for a while. Li Xingchen had obviously considered the points where he might attack, so he didn't intend to give himself a chance. As for whether he would talk about it when he went to meet His Majesty,
Zhou Zhen is not known.
Having worked with Xiao Mohe for such a long time, Zhou Que has a very clear understanding of Xiao Mohe's character and way of dealing with others.
Xiao Mohe was a loyal minister of Nanchen and a traditional and bold soldier. Once an opportunity appeared in front of him, he would take action directly even without the permission of the imperial court.
You will be outside, and your orders will not be accepted.
Xiao Mohe has always done this, because he is loyal to the future of the entire Nanchen, rather than the decree that may take a long time to be sent by His Majesty or the court. As long as it is beneficial to the dynasty, even if the decree is contrary to
Yes, he will still do it.
Therefore, regardless of whether Li Xingchen told Chen Xu or not, and whether Chen Xu would agree to it, Xiao Mohe would definitely take action as long as he felt it was appropriate.
But now that Li Xingchen had made his words clear, Zhou Que couldn't say anything even if he wanted to.
Obviously this young boy had already figured out all this when he came. Not only did he take Xiao Mohe's attitude into consideration, but he also did not forget his own. Thinking of this, Zhou Que sighed softly.
Xiao Mohe is now undoubtedly Li Xingchen's ally. I wonder what Shen Jungao and the others in Jiankang Mansion will choose then.
But at least Zhou Que knew well that Shen Jungao and Fu Yi were no match for Li Xinchen in a single fight. As for Chen Shubao, the master of the East Palace...
Zhou Que had never thought about how Chen Shubao would fight Li Xinchen, because he knew very well that they were not opponents on the same level at all.
Xiao Mohe quietly looked at Li Xinchen in front of him, feeling a little dazed for a moment. He understood what Li Xinchen wanted and how ambitious Li Xinchen was. After all, Xiao Mohe was not a fool. Li Xinchen had actually done everything in order to gain a foothold.
With his sharp edge revealed, Xiao Mohe has come step by step to where he is today. He doesn't really just keep his head down and rush forward.
But Xiao Mohe also knew that although it was not a good thing to seek skin from a tiger, seeking skin from a tiger was the only option if he wanted to solve the current predicament.
Maybe Nan Chen will have a chance to counter Li Xinchen in the future, but if Li Xinchen and the Northern Zhou Dynasty join forces now, then Nan Chen will be a lamb to be slaughtered.
Xiao Mohe knew the strength of Nan Chen and the power of Li Xingchen and the Northern Zhou Dynasty. It can even be said that even without Li Xingchen, as long as there was no civil strife in the Northern Zhou Dynasty and the internal conflict was clean, sooner or later one day he could rely on his money.
The advantages in region, population, and soldiers and generals can still defeat Nanchen.
Even Xiao Mohe can say pessimistically that if Wu Mingche had not decisively withdrawn his troops in the Luliang battle, and then Li Xingchen clearly pointed out the main attack direction of Jingzhou, Nanchen, who had lost the main force, and even Huainan, would have been lost long ago.
It was a piece of meat in the mouth of the Northern Zhou Dynasty. Even during the civil strife in the Northern Zhou Dynasty, they could only watch the excitement and wait quietly for themselves to be swallowed up by the victor.
In the eyes of others, the Battle of Jingzhou was Nanchen's campaign to gain the upper hand, but those who knew the details of both sides knew that the main reason why Nanchen was able to capture Jiangling was to catch Xiliang off guard at the time.
If it weren't for Li Xingchen's lively war in Bashu, and the main forces of the Northern Zhou Dynasty were all in the north, I'm afraid Jiangling would have returned to the hands of the Northern Zhou long ago.
Therefore, the Battle of Jiangling was Nanchen's struggle to survive, rather than the beginning of external expansion.
It would be difficult for Nan Chen now, or even Nan Chen twenty or thirty years later, to have such strength unless a miracle happened.
But now Li Xingchen brought a possible miracle to Xiao Mohe.
Therefore, even if he knew that Li Xingchen also had bad intentions, and even if he would still have to fight with swords in the future, Xiao Mohe was still willing to believe Li Xingchen at this time.
"You can rest assured, Shizhong, I can keep an eye on Xiangyang." Xiao Mohe said calmly, "The capital city has to be entrusted to you. It will take a lot of time to get back and forth from here, and it is difficult to tell your majesty about this matter.
clear······"
"General, don't worry." Li Xingchen smiled slightly and solemnly raised his hand to Xiao Mohe.
Zhou Que frowned. He knew that the agreement between Li Xingchen and Xiao Mohe had been formally reached. Although it was verbal and had no effect, and even the only witness was unreliable, Li Xingchen and Xiao Mohe
He will abide by it.
With Xiao Mohe so blatantly siding with Li Xinchen, plus Li Xinchen's possible allies in Beijing such as Xu Ling and Wu Mingche, it's no wonder that Li Xinchen was so confident when he returned to the capital this time.
When these people stood up together, they were already half of Chen Wenwu. Even if Chen Xu really wanted to cut Li Xinchen into pieces, he still had to weigh the consequences of doing so.
As if thinking of something, Li Xingchen turned his head slightly and looked at Zhou Que, but he didn't say anything more from beginning to end, and Zhou Que just met Li Xingchen's gaze and narrowed his eyes slightly.
At this time, he was even hesitant, not knowing whether the person in front of him was an enemy or a friend, or in other words, whether he should be an enemy or a friend.
————————————
Li Xinchen's yard in Jiangling is still so big. Although there are not many servants staying here, they are kept clean.
Now, as General Zhenxi, an upright and important general, Li Xinchen should not live in this small courtyard anymore. However, Li Xinchen did not have many requirements for this, and it was more comfortable where he had stayed.
Xiao Mohe complied with Li Xinchen's wishes, but also freed up several nearby mansions for Li Xinchen's entourage to live in. After all, King Gu Ye and the others were also dignitary officials of the court, and of course they could not squeeze into a few rooms with Li Xinchen.
in the house.
And Li Xingchen was not polite. As a dignified General of Zhenxi, living in the original house was nostalgic, but it did not mean that Li Xingchen did not pay attention to pomp and circumstance. General Zhenxi should have treatment that was consistent with it.
