On the fifteenth day, Pingzhou Road...

Zhang Jue was not very clear about the situation in Daibei, and Chai Yun dared not say it very clearly. However, judging from the meaning he conveyed, Li Hu's purpose of attacking Yanjing was to occupy Yanyun and use Yanyun as a vassal state to develop and grow. This was in line with Zhang Jue's interests. He did not want to leave Pingzhou Road. His interests were all on Pingzhou Road. Li Hu occupied Yanyun and he was in Pingzhou Road. There was no conflict of interest at present.

However, after crossing the Luan River, reaching the camp of the rebel army, and meeting Gao Yuan and Wu Xiong, I realized that I was wrong.

In the letter, Li Hu explained in detail the situation in the north and his speculation on the future situation in Youyan. The final plan was that Zhang Jue defected to the Song Dynasty and used Pingzhou Road as a vassal state, which not only ensured that the Song Dynasty recovered the Yanyun and Zhang Jue's interests.

The reason why Li Hu became a vassal state of the Song Dynasty was because he captured Xijing alone and recovered the Jiuzhou in the back of Shanhou. His strength was too strong and he could help the Song Dynasty guard the northwest, but Zhang Jue could not do it. Zhang Jue's strength was too weak, Pingzhou Road was too small, and he was at a critical position in the Youyan defense line. It would be too dangerous to be a vassal state of the Song Dynasty here.

"The Tiger King must give up Yanjing?" Zhang Jue couldn't help asking. He didn't understand why Li Hu gave up Yanjing. Is Li Hu afraid of the Song Dynasty?

"The situation of the Tiger King is very difficult. If he occupy Yanjing and betrays his faith, the Song Dynasty will definitely take revenge." Chai Yun concealed the northern strategy of Hulie Mansion. "Although the Song Dynasty lost consecutive battles in the Northern Expedition, its strength is still there. Moreover, the Song Dynasty and the Jin Kingdom have an alliance, and the Western Xia also have an alliance. If the Song Dynasty united the Jin people to fight Yanjing and the Western Xia to fight Datong, the Tiger King would lose one thing and another, and he would probably be defeated."

"The Tiger King proposed a proposal to the vassal state to Bian Jing, so it was conditional to return it to Yanjing." Gao Yuan said, "The Tiger King has been to you for a fight with you, brothers, to help you save Pingzhou Road. You have to thank the Tiger King."

Zhang Jue was confused. He knew Li Hu better. He knew that Li Hu was a wolf that ate people and did not spit bones. He gave him a vassal state for no reason. He probably had other hidden secrets in it. He planned to go to Yanjing in person and explain it to Li Hu in person.

"The Tiger King ordered us to go to Yuguan." Wu Xiong said, "No matter what the price is paid, we must guard Pingzhou Road."

Zhang Jue hesitated. Before he understood Li Hu's purpose, it is best not to let Gao Yuan and Wu Xiong enter Pingzhou Road, so as not to let them and Tian Hao and Wu Chitian meet and eat the Liao Xingjun in one bite, and then he will lose nothing. However, the Jin army came in a fierce battle, and it is inevitable that the Liao Xingjun will suffer a lot in this battle. The damage to the army will be very unfavorable to him.

"Don't worry. As long as you repel the Jin army, we will definitely withdraw from Pingzhou Road." Gao Yuan knew Zhang Jue's mind and said with a smile. "To be honest, if we don't stand up, the Jin army will continue to fight. We just show our faces at Yuguan and say hello to the head coach of the Jin army. The Jin army will withdraw. This will benefit you without any harm."

Zhang Jue weighed the matter repeatedly and agreed. Li Hudi's opponent was careful to reach Yu Pass. Hetian Hao, Wu Chitian, Yang Hua and others met.

On the same day, Gao Yuan shot the Jin army and invited the head coach of the Jin army to meet.

Zong Wang and Gao Yuan met in front of the two armies. Both sides were very polite and had a good conversation.

That night, Zong Wang withdrew his troops. Siming asked the Song army to go north to take over Yanjing immediately. "The Prime Minister considering the situation of Xuanfusi, he did not directly report the victory to Bianjing. Instead, he asked Datong Hulie Mansion to report to Bianjing. This would give the Grand Tutor at least ten days to the earth."

Tong Guan and Cai You were secretly surprised and were extremely angry at Li Hu's behavior of causing trouble. But at this time, he could no longer care about it. He quickly summoned Liu Yanqing to discuss matters with the commanders of the military.

The military discussion that night had no result. Yang Keshi, Zhong Shizhong, Wang, Xin Xingzong, Liu Guangshi and others refused to go north with various excuses. Tong Guan and Cai You were actually unwilling to take risks. Liu Yanqing knew that he was sandwiched in the middle, and the one above would put the blame on him, and the one below would take the blame. Anyway, it was over, and he didn't say a word from beginning to end. At the end of the military discussion, Cai You made a harsh statement, if the army could not set off within ten days, everyone would be finished together. Yang Keshi and others sneered, there were tall men holding on to him, as long as we were using us, we were afraid of nothing.

Wu Siming was not idle either. He asked several entourages to find Yang Zhi's garrison in private, and then sent a Liangshan brother to find Yang Zhi. Yang Zhi was overjoyed and rushed to visit Wu Siming in person. After the two met, Yang Zhi asked impatiently: "Why are you under the command of the King of Han? What about Brother Song and others?" Wu Siming was calm and told the story of Song Jiang's second uprising failure. The Liangshan army was taken to the northwest by Zhe Kecun and then surrendering to Hulie Mansion in detail.

Yang Zhi didn't expect that after he left Liangshan's army, Liangshan would still suffer so much. He was very sad.

"You won't be implicated in this failure of the Northern Expedition, right?" Wu Siming asked.

"I am just a general of the Northwest Army. How much guilt can I be?" Yang Zhi sighed, "But it is hard to say that the king's rule is. If he is not doing well, he will be demoted." Yang Zhi is the tenth general of Hedong, and is controlled by the ruler. This time, he lost two battles and two defeats. As one of the five military commanders on the front line, he is of course to blame.

"I have a letter here, which was written by the King of Han to you." Wu Siming took out the letter from his arms and handed it to Yang Zhi, "Look at it."

Yang Zhi was puzzled, so he took the letter and took a rough look, and his expression immediately changed. If you think the Han King's suggestion can help you, then let's talk about it."

Yang Zhi stood up and said "Thank you" and left in a hurry. In the evening, Wu Siming was invited to his military camp by Yang Zhi. In the military tent, he met Wang, Yang Keshi and three military commanders of Zhong Shizhong.

After a few greetings between the two sides, the king burned Li Hu's letter in front of Wu Siming.

"We know the marriage between the Zhe family and the King of Han, and we also know the reason." Wang pointed to Yang Keshi and Master Zhong, "We read the letter from the King of Han, and were very grateful for the King of Han's kindness. During the Western Expedition, we must do our best to repay him."

Wu Siming was secretly surprised. He never expected that these northwest generals would reject Li Hu's kindness. Then he would have no way to speak up next.

"The King of Han probably doesn't understand the matter of Bian Jing." Zhong Shizhong continued, "When Liu Fa went north to attack Shuofang, and all the soldiers in the northwest were wiped out. Tong Guan not only did not have any guilt, but was promoted to the title. Therefore, the King of Han could not defeat Tong Guan at all. On the contrary, Tong Guanhe (the book reprinted the book that the group of people in Bian Jing was named king and marquis, and all the contributions of the King of Han were robbed of them. If they were not done well, they would turn the blame on the failure of the Northern Expedition to the King of Han."

"The King of Han knows how powerful Tong Guan is, we know." Yang Keshi sneered, "We have the best idea of ​​how many defeats have been fought in the northwest over the years and how many people have died. But look at who is the achievements of the Northwest War? They are all Tong Guan. Tong Guan turned his hand and turned his hand and rain. After his defeat, he turned the black and white, it can immediately become a great victory." This man was extremely shameless. In order to gain power and achievements, he did not care about the life and death of the Northwest people." The king said angrily, "Since he arrived in the northwest, we have fought a local war for twenty years, but how many generals in the northwest have received rewards?"

"The King of Han wants to defeat him, and we are willing to help him. But we cannot do this." Zhong Shizhong's tone was calm, giving people a strong sense of confidence. "The Zhe family has written several times, and it has repeatedly mentioned the matters of the Western Expedition and Tong Guan. If the Western Expedition wants to succeed, Tong Guan must be defeated. We admit that this is not good. But this opportunity is indeed not good."

"What you mean..." Wu Siming couldn't understand and wanted to ask in detail. But these military commanders were too powerful, so they might find nothing when they asked directly.

"The reward for regaining Yanjing is the King of Han. Please report directly to Bianjing and report the reason for the defeat in Liangxiang to the truth. In this way, Liu Yanqing will definitely be taken out by Tong Guan to punish him." Yang Keshi was majestic and spoke with great momentum, which made people feel fear involuntarily. "Tong Guan cultivated several capable subordinates in the northwest, Liu Zhongwu, Liu Fa and Liu Yanqing. One of these three people is old and the other is dead. If one is convicted and imprisoned this time, the only one who can serve as commander in the northwest is Zhong Shidao and Yao Gu. Zhong Shuai has retired and returned home. If there is a war in the northwest, the commander must be Yao Gu. In this way, there will be an absolute chance of winning in the west."

"But the King of Han means to overthrow Tong Guan as soon as possible." Wu Siming said carefully, "The Hu Lie Mansion and the Zhe family both believe that Tong Guan is presided over, and this battle is very dangerous."

"If Tong Guan is to be demolished now, the only way is to the King of Han refuse to hand over Yanjing and then bargain with Bianjing. At this time, the masters and ministers of Bianjing will rise up and attack him. The King of Han takes the opportunity to threaten the emperor, forcing the emperor to blame Tong Guan and Wang Fu for the failure of the Northern Expedition, so as to calm the public anger, stabilize Bianjing, and take Youyan back."

Wu Siming realized that the Northwest people tried to provoke a conflict between Hu Lie Mansion and Bian Jing. The greater the conflict between the two, the more prominent the importance of the Northwest General Sect. When the emperor lost Tong Guan, he could not find a replacement in his eagerness and could only rely on the Northwest General Sect. At this time, the Northwest General Sect could get greater benefits from Bian Jing.

The people in the northwest made a profit, but Li Hu’s losses were huge. The people and the people in the northwest had a wonderful strategy.

Wu Siming thought for a long time and felt that Li Hu would not adopt this strategy. Li Hu was eager to withdraw Youyan but didn't want to cause trouble. The plan of the Northwest people was obviously to dig a hole to let Li Hu jump. Will Li Hu be fooled? Of course not.

"Can you enter Yanjing within ten days?" Wu Siming asked.

Wang, Yang Keshi and Master Zong looked at each other and laughed at each other.

"Yanjing is in the hands of the King of Han, why should we settle in?" Yang Keshi laughed, "In my opinion, it is impossible this year, and it will probably be the same next spring."

Wu Siming was shocked. Next spring? So, wouldn’t Li Hu become like this for You?
