Chapter 464: Whose calculations are deeper
"Your Majesty, this is the condition of the Taiping Army." Zhang Ning sat sideways, half of his butt hung on the chair, and said respectfully to the man on the large and somewhat overly throne.
"Left Prime Minister, you just said that when the Taiping Army found you and proposed this condition to you, their army had already set off towards Yongping County?" The prince's prince Wu Jing, standing beside the emperor, came a little angry voice, "Are they reporting to the court? They are just informing us."
Beside the emperor, the left prime minister Zhang Ning still has a seat, and the crown prince can only stand.
"Your Highness, at least they have notified us." Zhang Ning turned his face slightly and said, "From this matter, we can indeed see the sincerity of the Taiping Army's cooperation, because if they cooperated with Luo Yishui to launch a large-scale attack on Zhengyang County at this time, we would be even more passive. Our biggest enemy now is Luo Yishui, not the Taiping Army. The Taiping Army is still hanging the banner of our Dayue, but Luo Yishui clearly rebelled."
"Luo Yishui is a hungry wolf, but Qin Feng is also a tiger. Are they having good intentions?" Wu Jing said angrily.
Emperor Wu Jian raised his hand, shook it slightly, stopping Wu Jing's anger, and said lightly: "Qin Feng is indeed a tiger, but now he is still a young tiger. Didn't his special envoy say it himself? They have a weak foundation and cannot withstand the tossing. This is a good thing. Although the Taiping Army is now full of momentum, a big defeat can bring them back to their original form, so I believe this special envoy comes to seek cooperation."
"Your Majesty, do you think this matter is feasible?" Zhang Ning asked.
"Shayang County and Changyang County are now in love with Yongping County. Qin Feng has been in love with Qi people and is in a hot relationship. On the other hand, he has also incorporated thousands of people from Chu into his command. Even Cheng Wuben was taken into consideration by him. It is really not a simple person. This world's number one and second largest country has won over him. Hehe, it is enough to show this person's ability." Wu Jian stood up, paced back and forth a few steps before the dragon throne, and raised his head.
"Qin Feng saw what we wanted most now. We really wanted to wipe out Luo Yishui at the fastest speed. The longer the time was, the more variables there were, and the greater the possibility of the Qin people intervening. Only by defeating Luo Yishui with lightning speed can we have enough time to deal with the Qin people."
Zhang Ning nodded: "The Qin people have one of the biggest weaknesses, that is, once the front line is lengthened and the war lasts for a long time, their logistics will not keep up. If we can defeat Luo Yishui smoothly, the Qin people will not move, but once they fall into a stalemate, it will be troublesome. We see this, and Qin Feng also sees this."
"Zhang Ning, which one do you think Luo Yishui and Qin Feng are better to deal with?" Wu Jian asked suddenly.
Zhang Ning was stunned and subconsciously said: "Of course Qin Feng is better to deal with. He is an outsider and has no foundation in Yue Kingdom. Unlike Luo Yishui, the Luo family has a deep foundation. Until now, the officials still don't know if they have cleaned up the remaining evil. What's more worrying is that Luo Yishui himself has deep expectations in Da Yue."
Wu Jian shook his head: "You are wrong. The advantages of Luo Yishui you mentioned just now do exist, but when Luo Yishui chose to make a comeback in this way, he was already done. Even if he defeated us, the Qin people would not let him go next. Do you think Li Zhi stayed in Kaiping and did not leave just because he wanted to get Kaiping completely? Wrong, Li Zhi was staring at more places. So Luo Yishui was not worth worrying at all. Qin Feng, an outsider, could achieve such achievements in a short time. This person's ability to seize the opportunity is amazing. Compared with this person, Luo Yishui is simply an idiot. If I guessed well, I'm afraid that until now, Luo Yishui still thought that the Taiping Army was his friendly army, and is now preparing to attack Zhengyang County to share his pressure, right?"
"If there is such a possibility, Luo Yishui has been there for several years." Zhang Ning nodded and said, "I'm afraid he would never have thought that Qin Feng agreed to his cooperation proposal on the one hand, but he had already sold him without hesitation?"
"This is Qin Feng's amazingness. Zhengyang County is the richest place in our Dayue, and it is also our Dayue's money bag. Qin Feng can withstand the opportunity to take down Zhengyang County in this way and propose that as long as Yongping County is amazing! Those who can withstand temptation and see further are the most difficult to deal with."
"What your Majesty means is not to cooperate with them?"
"Wrong, of course we need to cooperate, otherwise how could we completely defeat Luo Yishui in a short period of time?" Wu Jian smiled: "They want Yongping County, I will give it to them, but they also have to show their sincerity a little more. Aren't they still occupying several counties in Zhengyang County now? Let them spit it out."
"Since it's a negotiation, there must be a lot of negotiation. When they bid, we will bargain, which makes us feel more sincere." Zhang Ning nodded repeatedly, "It's still your Majesty who thinks further."
"Go and tell their special envoy that as long as I agree to my conditions, I will give it to him in Yongping County. Moreover, after defeating Luo Yishui, as long as he is willing to keep hanging my Dayue flag, I will even be willing to make him king." Wu Jian lay on the chair side, supported his head with his hands, and smiled.
"Your Majesty, this is absolutely not allowed. Since the four families divided the Tang Dynasty, if they were not appointed as strange kings, it would be the tacit understanding of the four royal families. This rule cannot be broken!" Zhang Ning was shocked.
"The rules sometimes need to be broken when they should be broken!" Wu Jian laughed, "You go, just tell the envoy like this, and I'm looking forward to meeting with Qin Feng on the battlefield and discussing plans together."
"Yes, Your Majesty." Zhang Ning stood up, bowed to the emperor, turned around and bowed to Wu Jing, and then walked out.
Only Wu Jian, Wu Jing and his son were left in the hall. Wu Jing walked to the dragon throne, half-squatted down, gently beat Wu Jian's legs, and asked, "Father, do you really want to make this Qin Feng the king?"
"What do you think?" Wu Jian looked at his son with a smile.
"My father is just talking, right? He won't take it seriously." Wu Jing guessed.
"You don't joke." Wu Jian put away his smile, "But, I'll have to live this Qin Feng at that time?"
Wu Jing took a deep breath: "It turns out that my father had a plan to deal with Qin Feng? The child is too worried."
"Qin Feng occupied Shayang, controlled Changyang, and was backed by Qi, and his relationship with Chu was unclear. He said he had a grudge, but he married Min Ruoxi again. If he didn't jump out by himself, I wouldn't be able to deal with him. He sent troops to fight. He was not sure, but his ambition was too great. What he wanted was not Yongping County. What he wanted was our entire Dayue. Humph, if I couldn't even see this, would I be worthy of being the emperor of Dayue?" Wu Jian sneered, "Everyone has his own abacus. After calculating, it depends on who can calculate a step further."
"But we really need their help now. Even if the 50,000 Hu Ben attacks all the time, he will not be sure to win against Luo Yishui." Wu Jing told the truth, only father and son did not care about gaining the enemy's prestige and destroying his ambition.
"Of course, we must use it first. When Luo Yishui is destroyed, what else can we do? If Qin Feng's main force is destroyed, we will take back Shayang and Changyang, and then we will have the opportunity to revive the momentum." Wu Jian closed his eyes slightly, "We have been unhappy in the past few years, but it does not mean that we will be unhappy. Luo Yishui rebelled this time and actually gave Kaiping County to the Qin people. This matter alone is enough to wipe out his previous reputation among the people, which saves me a lot of trouble."
"yes!"
"This time I want to be the emperor in person. Luo Yishui, Humph, his father is not my opponent, he is even younger. After all, it is just a tool in the hands of other people. Qin Feng uses him and Li Zhi is also using him. Fortunately, he still thinks he is a hero, which is really ridiculous. I will leave the capital to you. When I am not here, there will definitely be ghosts jumping out to play the world dance. You should not be ruthless, and you would rather kill a thousand by mistake than let one go. In this regard, Zhang Jian can trust him and let him catch him and kill him."
"Zhang Jian is just a waste!" Wu Jing was very dissatisfied with Zhang Jian.
"He is indeed a waste, but waste also has its uses. At least he is loyal to us. Zhang's reputation is not very good, so he will take the blame for these murders. If you want to be emperor in the future, your reputation is still very important. People like Zhang Jian, even when it is time to give up, you won't feel a pity, right?" Wu Jian said with a smile.
"I understand." Wu Jing nodded: "But I still can't understand. After we join forces with the Taiping Army to destroy Luo Yishui, we will probably lose less. Will we still have the energy to destroy the Taiping Army?"
"You don't have to worry about these things. Just look at the result at that time. Of course, you can also try your best to think about it. If you come up with something, you can come and talk to me to see if you think it is right?" Wu Jian smiled slightly: "This is also a test question I gave you. Remember, don't consult your staff for this question, and don't reveal any news. In front of anyone, I can only say that I agreed to the Taiping Army's request. Do you understand?"
"Save it as good as a kid!"
"Well, you go too, Xu Jie, go and let him go and let him go, and tell him that you have made every effort to guarantee him in front of me. This person is capable. After I leave, you will let him go to Zhengyang County and reorganize the county soldiers there. I will be of great use at that time."
