Five hundred and twelve?

Anyway, Zhou Yanbo didn't know how he stayed in those days, it should have been a happy thing, but Zhou Yanbo passed in a daze, and even Zhou Yansu didn't understand what happened to him.

After a long period of time, Zhou Yanbo stayed in Jiazhou honestly, no longer running around like before, and didn't even go to the surrounding areas of Jiazhou, he stayed in Zhou's mansion almost every day, unless sometimes he felt that it was too boring, so he would go to the outer city for a casual walk.

Zhou Yunpeng and Zhou Yunbing were very surprised by Zhou Yanbo's behavior, they couldn't imagine that Zhou Yanbo, who had always been active, would stay in the Zhou family mansion so honestly.

"Isn't it more and more like you?" Zhou Yunbing said to Zhou Yunpeng, "Before you got married, you almost didn't spend time in this family, and after you got married and had children, you almost didn't leave the door of the Zhou family, which Zhou Yanbo is too similar." ”

"It's not just me, it's also the case with my late brother, almost everyone in the Zhou family is this virtue. Zhou Yunpeng said, "But to be honest, I really don't think Yanbo is the kind of person who can stay in Jiazhou honestly for the rest of his life, anyway, after a while, he will definitely go out again." ”

"What a terrible thing you say. ”

"That's what it looks like for Yanbo. Zhou Yunpeng said, "He is a guy who can support the Zhou family, but he will not be restrained." ”

On the other hand, Zhou Yanxing and Situ Yixiao also found Zhou Yanbo.

"Congratulations to my brother for staying in Jiazhou safely. Zhou Yanxing said with a smile.

"What's there to congratulate?" Zhou Yanbo was puzzled.

"On the other hand, isn't that a good thing?"

"That's true, but you, the head of Jiazhou, didn't come here to say hello to me, did you? Otherwise, Lord Si Ming wouldn't have appeared here, what's the matter?"

"There is one thing I want to tell you, that is, the Zhou family's external preparations. ”

"Externally, are you going to start a war?" Zhou Yanbo was not stupid, and immediately understood Zhou Yanxing's thoughts.

"That's right, after the Han family's last attack on Jiazhou, the two sides set a two-year truce, this is a great time, use these two years to expand the territory in one fell swoop, as long as the method and strategy are right, you can have the best benefits!"

"I see, this two-year armistice agreement with the Han family was originally to ensure that the Han family has a time to recuperate and accumulate the strength to fight against the Zhou family, but you also want to take advantage of this in turn, and take advantage of this time to strengthen the strength of the Zhou family, so as to make a preparation for being able to embezzle the Han family in the future?"

"Yes. Situ smiled and nodded, "Although the two-year truce was specially added by you in order to agree to Jiang Hongyuan's request, even if we don't know what the Han family thinks about this, but for the Zhou family, it is a good time, and we don't want to waste this condition you created for the Zhou family." ”

"It's ...... too"

"If you count it......," Zhou Yanxing said, "there is still one year left in the two-year period, and about ten months to be exact." ”

"Huh? Is it already more than half over? I don't even feel that Jiang Hongyuan's affairs are still vivid. ”

"Don't forget Jiang Hongyuan's incident, you were poisoned and went to pick Yueling, it took almost a year there, and with the Qianling incident later, it should be normal that so much time has passed. Situ smiled and remembered Zhou Yanbo's time very accurately.

"Yes...... But why are you telling me this, you don't want me to lead troops, do you?" asked Zhou Yanbo.

"Nope. Zhou Yanxing replied, "Brother, you just stay in Jiazhou to accompany your sister-in-law during this time, if you are still allowed to go out at this time, it will be too unsatisfactory." ”

"Then why did you come to me to talk about it?"

"It's because of the object that the Zhou family wants to attack. ”

"Speaking of which, I haven't asked yet, since it is a foreign use of troops, then who is the other party, it won't be the Han family, is it Mengsun?

"Neither. Zhou Yanxing shook his head, "The other party is...... Xun family. ”

"Xun Wenyu and them?" this is what Zhou Yanbo did not expect the most.

"That's why I want to come over and talk to you, brother, we all know your friendship with Xun Wenyu, but didn't you already discuss it when you were in the southwest border, and finally settled this matter by force, just ignoring the fact that I know brother, you may put the Xun family in the last position, right?" Zhou Yanxing said, "You think that after pacifying the Han family and Meng Sun, you will finally use troops against the Xun family, and it may only be a ceremonial use of soldiers." ”

These words are indeed true. ”

"So anyway, sooner or later, we have to use troops, sooner rather than later, besides, thinking that the Xun family will not be able to wait quietly until the end to fight us, if you do it the way you want to do it, brother, the Xun family will probably oppose us when we attack Meng Sun or the Han family, as for whether it will stick a knife in our back, it is another matter. ”

"These ...... It's not impossible. ”

"The Xun family seems to be ready to deal with the Zhou family, and they have strengthened their vigilance on three sides of the border with the Zhou family, so instead of fighting with Mengsun or Nanguo in the first battle, it is better to fight with the Xun family first, at least after winning, it will take less time to recuperate than the other two forces. ”

"Alright, alright. Zhou Yanbo interrupted Zhou Yanxing's words, "Now it's not up to me to make the decision in Jiazhou House, it's your business to do it, you can watch it." ”

"Is that an agreement?"

"Will it be useful for me to object?" Zhou Yanbo said, "But that's fine, if it's me, I really don't have the determination to attack the Xun family...... If that's you, you don't have to worry about that. ”

"Of course, now my brother's task is to guard Jiazhou and guard against what small moves the Han family may make, although the truce in the past two years was tacitly agreed by both sides, but the verbal agreement at that time was that the Zhou family would not attack the Han family within two years, and the Han family did not have such a guarantee. ”

"yes, and for good reason. Situ said with a smile.

"Could it be that when we spoke, the person who ordered you to fall into Yingshe had already gone to inquire about all the circumstances of the Xun family?" Zhou Yanbo asked.

"Of course, in the past few days, I have just finished the reorganization of Luo Yingshe, and the Xun family also happens to be a test object, let's see if Luo Yingshe is powerful, or the Xun family is powerful. ”

"Do you want to say that if this battle against the Xun family is defeated by the Xun family's Fengwei, then not to mention the future battle against Mengsun Dark Province and the Han family's outer gate?"

"It's a mean talk, but the conclusion is completely correct. ”

"It's up to you, but can you guarantee that the war against the Xun family will end within ten months?"

"I don't know, but you can give it a try, if you use the normal invasion method, after ten months, the Zhou family may just advance to the Zhou River, after all, there are only three ways to attack the Xun family as we know: start from Yunyu to the Yixian area, start from Jiazhou and enter the Xun family through Shuangling, and start from Nanhu to enter the Xun family west. Zhou Yanxing said.

"That's right, the Xun family must also know, especially if Xun Wenyou is here, he will definitely be able to think of all the possible invasion routes of the Zhou family, if you can't have any surprise strategies, but you can't win the Xun family, don't ask me for a strategy, I won't think about it." ”

"No need, brother, you better stay by your sister-in-law's side obediently. ”

……

After coming out, Zhou Yanxing and Situ Yixiao both breathed a sigh of relief.

"I didn't expect it to go so well. Zhou Yanxing said.

"Use a proper reason to deceive Zhou Yanbo, and then take this opportunity to solve the Xun family, it's really amazing to come up with this trick. ”

Zhou Yanxing knew that if the news of the Xun family's rebellion was left alone, it would sooner or later flow into Zhou Yanbo's ears, so he had to find a way to solve this matter, so Zhou Yanxing thought of the passage between Xun Wenyu and Zhou Yanbo in the southwest border at that time and decided to use it, and use this matter to add a proper reason to cover up the real reason for attacking the Xun family, after all, for Zhou Yanxing, whether it is a real reason or a cover-up reason, as long as the final purpose of the two is the same, it can be used. So now that the goal has been achieved, it has not only concealed Zhou Yanbo's eyes, but also can use the Xun family soldiers in a bright and open manner, which is the best ending.

Seven days later, the Yunyu Legion led by Situ Zhishui, the Yejian Legion led by Qingfeng, and the Jiazhou Legion led by Zhou Yanxing began to attack the Xun family from three sides.
