In Hedong Road, there are three giants, namely Li Yuan, Wang Wei, and Gao Junya, the deputy left-behind Wang Wei, and Wu Yalang! Wang Wei and Gao Junya seem to be Li Yuan's deputies, but they are actually the two loyal bones of the Sui Dynasty sent by Yang Guang to monitor Li Yuan.

They did a good job in Taiyuan, Taiyuan has plenty of grain and grass, weapons and equipment are piled up in the treasury, as an important town, Taiyuan has very few soldiers and horses, Li Yuan has always wanted to recruit troops and buy horses, Wang Wei and Gao Junya are resolutely opposed, which forced Li Yuan to still be a bare-bones commander, at least, on the surface.

In the past, Yang Guang played fishing law enforcement against Li Yuan, trying to use Li Yuan to lure out the Dugu family, the Dou family and other Guanlong magnates, and then get rid of the three families together. It was to make Wang Wei and Gao Junya ignore Li Yuan's recruitment, but when Li Yuan really had the strength to rebel, Yang Guang was trapped in Jiangdu and couldn't move!

Helpless, Wang Wei and Gao Junya had to tie up with Wang Rengong in Mayi County in the north and Gao Deru in Xihe County in the south to restrain Li Yuan! But the damn Liu Wuzhou actually killed Wang Rengong!

The allies of the two are now only one Gao Deru, who is secretly developing, and when they are worried, one person comes from the west of Jizhou, which gives the two of them a reassurance.

The person who came was Ling Jing, the new waiter of the Ministry of Commerce of Jizhou Road.

Bringing a group to buy grain, cloth, iron ingots and other materials is just a task on the surface, and the real intention is to connect with Wang Wei and Gao Junya, and negotiate with Li Yuan on behalf of Yang Tong and the two.

"General Wang, General Gao! I understand His Highness's intentions! Ling Jing saw that the two of them had finished reading the secret letter, and said, "Your Highness and your lords will definitely oppose Li Yuan!" But he couldn't force him to rebel, because the Great Sui couldn't bear the price of Li Yuan's rebellion. ”

"Is it just like this to let Li Yuan develop?" Gao Junya frowned unwillingly.

Ling Jing said: "What else? The Jiangdu army is unreliable, and the Central Plains army of King Yan is unreliable; If Li Yuan rebelled, Guanlong's magnates would gather, and the king of Guanzhong would be too busy to take care of himself, and he would not be able to help the two generals! ”

Wang Wei said: "Jizhou has been decided, and the King of Qin can send troops!" ”

Ling Jing said: "Don't forget, there is also a powerful Turk in the north. Liang Shidu, Liu Wuzhou, and Guo Zihe could be vassals to the Turks, and Li Yuan could do the same. Once the Turks send troops, the good situation in Jizhou will be buried immediately! ”

"The Great Sui is full of kings and hegemons, there are more and more anti-thieves, and the power is getting stronger and stronger, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is full of holes! Moreover, now there is an undercurrent surging on all sides, and soon it will not only be the victims who will rebel. ”

Wang Wei was shocked: "Will there be more man-made rebellions?" ”

"The rebellion of the victims is just the introduction, and soon there will be landlords and powerful people who will rebel, and there will only be more and more family lords like Li Yuan who sit and watch the world change. Once the two of them forced Li Yuan to rebel, Guan Long's magnates would definitely take him as the leader and secretly support them with money, food, and manpower. Hedong is chaotic, and Guanzhong will also be chaotic! When that step really comes, the various forces will surely jump out of the shadows. And His Royal Highness and Jizhou now need precious development time, so the two of them must not force Li Yuan to rebel, this consequence is not something that Da Sui can bear. ”

Wang Wei and Gao Junya are not stupid people, they naturally know what the current Great Sui is like, and after Ling Jing's detailed analysis, they immediately understand that Li Yuan can't move! Wang Wei thought for a while and sighed: "How should this be?" ”

Gao Junya said angrily: "I know that Li Yuan has bad intentions, but I can't move, I'm really angry!" ”

Ling Jing said: "The two generals are loyal and touching, but they must focus on the overall situation. ”

Wang Wei pondered for a moment and asked, "Mr. Ling, does Your Highness have any other orders?" ”

Ling Jing said solemnly: "First of all, the situation of the two generals is very dangerous, before Li Yuan rebels, he must try to get rid of the two and the army loyal to the imperial court!" ”

Gao Junya said coldly: "There are 20,000 elites in Taiyuan, which is not so easy to get rid of." ”

Ling Jing secretly shook his head, these two people are loyal, but this IQ is really anxious, after thinking about it, he simply picked it out and said: "Liu Wuzhou is a godsend opportunity for Li Yuan to get rid of the imperial army!" He will send this army to quell the rebellion, and then borrow a knife to kill! If the two disagree, he can get rid of them in the name of collaborating with the enemy. ”

"Second, Liu Wenjing and other local officials and the Taiyuan Wang clan are Li Yuan's supporters, and you are always under Li Yuan's surveillance... But if there is a little wind and grass, Li Yuan will know... Your Highness asked the two of you to leave the cage of Taiyuan with an army loyal to the imperial court. ”

"Third, Jinyang Palace has one million quintals of grain and 400,000 sets of armaments! This huge amount of materials must not fall into Li Yuan's hands. ”

"The two generals can use the materials of Jinyang Palace as an excuse to lead the army to sit in town! One can leave Taiyuan, a place where the wind leaks on all sides; the second can protect two and 20,000 loyal men; The third can hold this batch of supplies. ”

Speaking of this, Ling Jing glanced at the second general who had realized something, and continued: "In short, if Li Yuan wants to quell the rebellion, let him re-recruit twenty or thirty thousand troops!" If nothing else, he will take this opportunity to pull those loyal to him to the light! If he wins Liu Wuzhou's advantage to the country, he will also have some losses; If he loses, his strength will be greatly reduced, and most importantly, his power will be exposed in front of him, and it will be much easier to clean up later. ”

Wang Wei thought for a while and said, "Since it is ordered by His Royal Highness, the two of us will obey it with all our might!" It's just that there are too many outlaws under Li Yuan's command, and the two of us are afraid that they will not be able to escape the fate of being assassinated, and it doesn't matter if the two of us die, I am afraid that these materials will fall into the hands of Li Yuan! In my opinion, it is better to move all the materials of Jinyang Gongcang City and the treasury of the city to Hengshan County under the pretext that Liu Wuzhou's threat is too great! Without these materials and armaments, even if Li Yuan rebelled, his strength would not be much stronger. ”

"Okay! The commander of Hengshan County is General Li Jing, who has 20,000 soldiers in his hands, and will fully assist the two of them in emptying the Jinyang Palace Cangcheng and the city treasury. ”

Ling Jing was happy.

Wang Wei is really too superior, and these strategic assets are indeed what Yang Tong asks for. "Do the two generals know where Li Yuan's soldiers are placed?"

"There are about 30,000 in Shouyang County! There are about 40,000 in Qingyuan County, and the rest are placed in Wang's Grange in the name of domestic slaves."

Ling Jing's eyes flashed, and he said, "Mobilize the young people of the two counties to move grain into Hebei!" As long as they are willing to settle down in Jizhou, they can enjoy the same treatment as the people of Jizhou. With a stable home and good land, I believe that these people are not willing to rebel. The most important thing is that after arriving in Jizhou, they are not worried about Li Yuan's retaliation. ”

Wang Wei applauded: "What a trick to draw salary!" ”

Gao Junya excitedly continued: "Drain these people away, but let's see what Li Yuan will do?" ”

"In this way, there are two generals Lao! The contemptible people will persuade His Highness to fully cooperate in this matter. Ling Jing said with a smile.

"It's better to have His Highness come forward!"

Then, the three of them discussed the details in detail.
