Chapter 395: The Price

Pugui pondered and couldn't decide.

The identity of the guest from Bianliang is extraordinary, and the person the guest represents is a rare and distinguished person in the world.

If possible, Pugui naturally hopes to establish a relationship with such a person and get close to him.

For Luo's Ghost Country, the benefits are self-evident.

However, the request made by this guest now makes it difficult for Pugui to make a decision.

The guest's surname is Zhao, given name is Yuan, and given name is Ziyu.

He was the most relied-upon staff member and confidant of Zhao Jing, King of Chu of the Great Song Dynasty.

Zhao Yuan always stayed in the palace of the King of Chu in the capital and rarely left Bianliang. But this time, he actually came in person, which in itself represented that this matter was extraordinary.

Zhao Yuan asked Pugui to kill a person and destroy a force.

Xiao Cheng and the business federation currently active in Qianzhou.

Pugui, the master of the Luo Ghost Kingdom, is no stranger to this man and this force.

Just last year, the Luodian Ghost Kingdom was destroyed. It was the force that Zhao Yuan talked about that destroyed the Luodian Ghost Kingdom.

Speaking of Luoshi Ghost Kingdom and Luodian Ghost Kingdom, they are still two melons on a vine!

It's just that one is attached to Dali and the other is attached to Song Dynasty.

The Luodian Ghost Kingdom was destroyed, and all the main figures in the country fled to Dali, and some also fled to the Luoshi Ghost Kingdom. This attracted Pugui's attention to this neighbor.

"I have never quite understood why the imperial court did not publicly arrest Xiao Cheng?" Pugui said: "As far as I know, this association has Xiao Cheng as the core. As long as he is publicly declared a traitor and treasonous, then

Many of the people under him are afraid that they will disperse, just like Bozhou, Sizhou and other places. They cannot openly cooperate with a rebel, and the big businessmen under him are even less likely to cooperate with him."

Zhao Yuan said with some distress: "It would be nice if things were that simple. There are too many things involved here. Great Ghost Lord, haven't you noticed that the imperial court has never made a conclusion about the Xiao family?"

Pugui shook his head, expressing that he didn't quite understand.

"Because in the northwest, we lost the war with Xiao Ding. We lost completely." Zhao Yuan sighed: "And in order to quell the war and let Xiao Ding retreat from the Shaanxi Road, the court paid a lot. Therefore, the court did not

I hope that because of some small things, Xiao Ding will be angered again and there will be another military disaster. Although the imperial court has been deploying troops to Shaanxi Road and redeploying defenses, the defense is still like a big sieve, which can be broken with a poke. It wants to form an effective combat effectiveness.

, it will take some time. What’s more, there are still Liao people on the Hebei Road who are eyeing it?"

"Can I just do it?" Pugui asked.

"Of course you can!" Zhao Yuan said: "And you have a perfect reason. The Luodian Ghost Kingdom was destroyed by them, wasn't it? This is the reason for you to go to war with them, to avenge your brothers. It's up to you, Xiao Ding will find

It won’t cost the imperial court any trouble.”

"It shows that I may not be able to beat him!" Pugui smiled, picked up the teacup, and said, "Mr. Zhao, if the court does not declare Xiao Cheng to be a traitor, it will spread the news in Zhouzhou and Sizhoutian will almost be able to openly support Xiao Cheng.

Those big businessmen will export all kinds of materials to Qianzhou without fear or scruple. Now, Cen Zhong of Guangnan West Road has gained great power. Didn't you say that the imperial court wants to promote this person as the comfort envoy of Guangnan West Road?

If you say that this person has nothing to do with Xiao Cheng, then no one will believe it!"

Having said this, Pugui paused for a moment, looked at Zhao Yuan and said: "Mr. Zhao, tell me, how confident can I be in this battle? When this man attacked Luo Dian, I could see clearly, and his soldiers were sharp.

, far beyond comparison with ordinary armies!"

Zhao Yuan smiled: "The Great Ghost Lord is too humble. Although the imperial court also has its own difficulties and cannot publicly declare this person a traitor, there are naturally other methods. Those big businessmen you mentioned will all receive orders in the near future.

Warning, so in the short term, Qianzhou will not have a large amount of materials and money entering. Although these businessmen have money and background, they are like ants in front of the court. If they are really disobedient, the court will crush them with their fingers.

, and it turned into powder.”

Pu Gui raised his eyebrows, naturally things would not be as easy as Zhao Yuan said.

Behind these big businessmen, there are either big bosses in the court as their background, or they have strong local strength. The court cannot openly declare Xiao Cheng to be a traitor, so these people have a lot of reasons to shirk the matter. Although now, although

The King of Chu, Zhao Jing, was unparalleled in the limelight, but there were also many forces who opposed him in the country.

The imperial court that Zhao Yuan spoke of was actually nothing more than Zhao Jing, the king of Chu.

Zhao Jing had a grudge against the Xiao family, and it was an irresolvable hatred.

Therefore, Zhao Jing must do everything possible to nip guys like Xiao Cheng in the bud.

Compared with Xiao Ding, people like Xiao Cheng are even more terrifying.

Xiao Ding has made it clear that he wants to be an enemy of the Song Dynasty. Such an enemy is in the open and everyone can see it clearly, so it is easier to deal with it. It is nothing more than that at a suitable time, someone will come and you will not die.

, it’s just me dying.

But Xiao Cheng, hiding behind the scenes, looks harmless to humans and animals, but in fact he is desperately digging a big hole. He never knows when Zhao Jing will be buried in this big hole.

Xiao Cheng's rebellion without raising a flag is really a very clever flag.

And seeing Xiao Cheng's power growing day by day, how could Zhao Jing not be in a hurry?

Almost all of Qianzhou has fallen into the hands of Xiao Cheng, and the Federation of Commerce is more like an octopus, extending Xiao Cheng's power infinitely. You don't even know that Xiao Cheng is hiding in that corner.

A certain force of sincerity.

The soldiers came out of Luodian Ghost Kingdom and easily destroyed this regime that had existed for countless years in one fell swoop. If you give him more time, wouldn't it make the tiger grow wings under his ribs?

Let’s just say that right now, isn’t Guangnan West Road about to fall into its trap?

Zhao Yuan, doesn’t he think that he really knows nothing about the situation?

Pu Gui narrowed his eyes. He felt that he should give Zhao Yuan some hints to let him understand that if he continued to go around like this, he was afraid that he would get nothing.

After all, I was just cooperating with him. I respected him and Zhao Jing, but I didn't want them to act like monkeys.

Why do they suddenly come to me? Do you really think you don’t know?

"Mr. Zhao, did you suffer a big loss on Guangnan West Road?" Pugui asked with a smile.

Zhao Yuan was slightly stunned.

Yes, if I hadn't suffered a big loss, if I hadn't allowed Na Cen Zhong to achieve an absolute victory on Guangnan West Road in one fell swoop, how could I have ended up here? With one careless move, I lost everything.

Now it seems that when Cen Zhong went to Guangnan West Road, the opponent was playing an extremely secretive move. It was ridiculous that he did not see it at the beginning. By the time he saw it and wanted to make amends, it was already too late.

In the end, he had to resort to desperate measures and use such arrogant moves. It would be nice to succeed, but the problem is that not only did he lose, but he lost extremely ugly, and even lost Guangnan West Road to the opponent.

There was a huge defeat on the battlefield, and naturally it was also a huge defeat at the court.

If in a few years Cen Zhong is allowed to integrate Guangnan West Road and now Qianzhou is integrated into one, something big will really happen.

The official is in very good health and may not die soon!

Zhao Jing's younger brothers are also growing up year by year. Who says Zhao Jing will definitely be able to secure that position!

With the virtue of a person like Xiao Cheng, I am afraid that the next step is to support a prince to confront Zhao Jing, right?

"Great Ghost Lord, the King of Chu has always been generous." Zhao Yuan decided to get straight to the point. These barbarians are neither rabbits nor hawks, and there is no benefit. If you want them to work hard for you, don't even think about it.

Pugui smiled and made a gesture.

"Great Ghost Lord, the Zizhou Road Pacifier is willing to help us!" Zhao Yuan said: "As long as the Ghost Lord agrees to our plan, in the next few months, hundreds of thousands of stones of food can equip ten thousand people with armor.

Weapons, bows and arrows will enter your country through various channels, and some troops will also enter your country in disguise to support the battle." Zhao Yuan gritted his teeth and said: "This time, we

I don’t want to make the same mistake as I did on Guangnan West Road again. If I don’t move, I’ll do it. If I move, I will crush my opponent with overwhelming force.”

Pugui's eyes lit up.

What Zhao Yuan said is really good. The King of Chu is very generous.

"As far as I know, the Song Dynasty has always had very strict control over these things. Zizhou Road will never be able to produce these things."

"Of course, these things all come out of the Bianliang Craftsman Camp, and then under the operation of the Third Division, they will quietly disappear from the accounts, and then be transported to you!" Zhao Yuanshen

He said: "The Great Ghost Master has no doubt about this. His Highness the King of Chu is now in charge of the craftsman camp, and the Xianggong in charge of the three envoys has been replaced by Cui Ang from Luo Song."

Having said this, Pugui no longer had any doubts.

Looking at Pu Gui's appearance, Zhao Yuan felt a little disdainful in his heart. He was indeed a man who was blind to money.

"In addition, after this matter is completed, all the areas that the Luodian Ghost Kingdom originally belonged to will belong to the Great Ghost Lord!" Zhao Yuan once again threw out a big bait.

"Will Banshu and Sishu join the war?"

Zhao Yuan smiled and said: "This time I want to have a good talk with Bozhou Yang and Sizhou Tian. There is a price to pay for letting them sit on the sidelines and watch. These Jisuzhou are the price. The King of Chu promised that they can now fact

Once the king of Chu ascends to Dabao, he will issue an edict to agree to this matter. I believe this will make them tempted."

"Where's Guangnan West Road?"

"The Guangnan West Road is not thinking about itself right now!" Zhao Yuandao said: "We will delay the appointment of Cen Zhong as the pacifier of the Guangnan West Road for a month or two. If the name is not correct, the words will not be smooth. Without a formal appointment from the court, the following is

People can refuse his orders openly and in accordance with the regulations. Moreover, this time the Guangnan West Road has been damaged. The Qingyuan Army has basically temporarily lost its combat effectiveness. Other armies are still waiting and watching. We will also attack there.

Kung Fu, if nothing else, will at least create a lot of trouble for Cen Zhong. When the Ni Bodhisattva crosses the river, he cannot save himself! If he makes a mistake in the process and something big happens, then he has not yet achieved this

The comfort envoy was about to be replaced by someone else. The transfer envoy of Guangnan West Road was also wide-eyed and wanted to go further! In the past, he was suppressed to death by Tao Hongyuan and Fu Changrong, but now Cen Zhong

The foundation is not stable, it would be weird if he stayed honest!"

"In that case, I, the Luo Family Ghost Kingdom, are willing to work for the imperial court to exterminate these rebellious and unscrupulous people!" Pugui said with satisfaction: "Mr. Zhao, when will these things you mentioned arrive?"

"When I left Beijing, the arrangements were generally made. It will take up to a month before everything is in place!" Zhao Yuan said.

"Okay, by the end of October, you will be able to see the army of our Luo family ghost country launching an attack on these rebels." Pugui said. "Mr. Zhao, by then soldiers and horses will also come from Zizhou Road. These are just a few soldiers.

The horses are mixed together, who will direct them?"

Zhao Yuan smiled and said: "Such a war does not require you, the Great Ghost Lord, to go out in person. You must send your generals to lead the troops. Therefore, on our side, we hope that this war will be under the unified command of the generals sent by us.

This person is very familiar with the Xiao family and has fought against them in the past."

Pu Gui looked hesitant, "Who is this person?"

"This person's surname is Tang and his given name is Nu."

“Never heard of that!”

"He will arrive at your place in a few days. This man is a commander in our Song Dynasty. Not only is his personal bravery extraordinary, but his strategy is also first-rate. The King of Chu specially arranged for him to return to Beijing to report on his duties at this time." Zhao Yuan said.

"We'll talk about it first. If it doesn't work, I don't mind taking the command myself!" Pugui said.

"That's natural!" Zhao Yuan nodded. Obviously, he was quite confident in this Tang Nu. Even Pu Gui couldn't compare with this person.

Bangzhou.

"Sir, it has been confirmed that a large amount of military supplies and troops have entered the Luo Ghost Kingdom. This war is inevitable." Wu Ke stood in front of Xiao Cheng and said. As the Statistical Investigation Department of the Commercial Federation's intelligence agency

The person in charge, he is now in charge of all the underground forces under Xiao Cheng. Xiao Cheng was originally interested in monk Huiyuan, but this monk only wanted to hang out outside and was unwilling to stay in the house to do these co-ordinating tasks.

"There are also soldiers and horses, haha, this time, I am really willing to spend a lot of money!" Xiao Cheng chuckled.

"Our spies also found an acquaintance!" Wu Ke spread a portrait in front of Xiao Cheng.

"Tang Nu!" Xiao Cheng recognized this guy at a glance.

Trai Ang’s best friend!

This guy should be working as a commander on the Hebei Road now, but he actually appeared in Luo's Ghost Country. It seems that he wants to use his rich experience in commanding operations to deal with him.

"Step up collecting intelligence. We need their overall military plan, marching route and other information." Xiao Cheng said: "We must be willing to spend money. No matter how much money you spend, as long as you win the battle, you can get it back tenfold or a hundredfold.

"

"I understand!" Wu Ke nodded and said, "One more thing. Our people discovered some strange things in Bozhou and Sizhou. People from the imperial court appeared in these two places."

Xiao Cheng sneered: "There is nothing to worry about. We have won this battle. Those who are flirting with the court will naturally be dealt with for us. I not only want to win this battle, but also win it quickly.
