The three of them looked at each other, and Pan Liao smiled: "In this way, Luoyang is going to start to mess up!" ”

Guo Song nodded, "The strong rise of the Xiao family will inevitably compete with the Liu family, the current situation is that the Xiao family and Liu Sigu join forces, and the Liu family and Zhu Sui form an alliance, and two power groups will soon be formed, unless Zhu Jun solves Zhu Sui and Liu Feng with the roughest and simplest speed, otherwise there will inevitably be civil strife in Luoyang." ”

Du You pondered for a moment and said: "Zhu Zhu must be in a hurry to get rid of Zhu Sui in order for his son to inherit the throne in the future, I estimate that he will stabilize the Liu family first, and then attack Zhu Sui, but Zhu Sui doesn't have his own strength?" ”

Zhu Sui himself said to Liu Feng that Qiu Jingzhong was his person, and he also had the support of Xuzhou, Bozhou and Songzhou, and now the problem was, Liu Feng didn't know what to do? He asked Yang Mi to come up with a plan, but Yang Mi wanted us to give a suggestion. ”

Zhang Qiuzheng, who had not spoken, asked, "What about Your Highness's thoughts?" ”

Guo Song said lightly: "I hope that the Zhu Dynasty can be strangled to death slowly, and it is not in our interests to die suddenly, I had better hope that the Zhu Dynasty will split, and then we will exterminate the Zhu Dynasty at the smallest cost." ”

Du You said with a smile: "This is simple, at the end of the Spring and Autumn Period, Jin Xiangong wanted to set up his young son Xi Qi as his heir, the son Chong'er fled outside and survived, and the prince Shen Sheng lived in the house and was killed, His Royal Highness can let Yang Mi persuade Zhu Sui, let Zhu Sui flee to Xuzhou, Qiu Jingzhong led the army to follow, Liu Feng lived inside, with Xuzhou alone can not support an army of 100,000, Zhu Sui will inevitably annex Song and Bo Prefectures, once Zhu Zhu is not allowed, the war will break out. ”

This plan is good, and Guo Song agrees with it, but the question is, will Qiu Jingzhong lead the army to follow Zhu Sui?

Pan Liao said slowly: "Your Highness, Weichen thinks that with Zhu Sui's mediocrity, Qiu Jingzhong will not take a fancy to him, if Qiu Jingzhong is loyal to Zhu Sui, there are two possibilities, either it is related to Zhu Tao, or Qiu Jingzhong has taken a fancy to Zhu Sui's mediocrity, considering that Zhu Tao's influence in the Central Plains has died out, Weichen thinks that it is more likely to be the latter reason." ”

Guo Song understood what Pan Liao meant, he pondered for a moment and said: "Liu Feng's chess piece is very good, it must be kept, if necessary, let Liu Feng go to Zhu Zhu to report the relationship between Zhu Sui and Qiu Jingzhong, in addition, I also planted a sharp knife next to Liu Feng, I hope to use this knife at a critical moment." ”

........

Pan Liao and Du You retired first, and Zhang Qiu'an and Guo Song were still left in the official room, and Guo Song asked, "Is there any progress in the negotiations?" ”

Zhang Qiu'an shook his head, "Wang Ling sent someone back to deliver the letter ten days ago, and then sent it again, but there is no news at all now, listening to Wang Ling's meaning, it seems that no one in Luoyang cares about this matter now, he originally reported directly to Zhu Jun, but now Zhu Jun is not out of the inner palace at all!" ”

At present, the negotiations between the two sides are still stuck 20 days ago, and Zhu Jun's side still wants to exchange Jeju and Yunzhou and Li Na's father and son's heads for Cuihan, but the Jin army has already captured Jeju and Yunzhou, but Zhu Jun's conditions have not changed, and it seems very insincere.

Guo Song took a few steps and said, "Since this is the case, let's stop the negotiation!" Inform Wang Ling and let him return to Luoyang early tomorrow morning, and the door to negotiation will be temporarily closed. ”

"Your Highness doesn't think about it anymore?"

Guo Song shook his head, "I have no interest in this negotiation in the first place, if Zhu Jun is sincere, it is not impossible for me to let him at all, since he is insincere, why should we waste time?" ”

"Does Your Highness want to take down the three states of Mi, Yan, and Yi?"

Guo Song nodded, "Actually, I have already ordered, since Zhu Jun is not sincere, I don't bother to give him face!" ”

.........

After taking Jeju and Yunzhou, Li Bing deployed 5,000 troops in each of the two states, and then led the army to quickly shrink back to Qizhou.

Although it is still necessary to wait for the notice of the King of Jin when to attack these three states, it does not affect Li Bing to make a battle plan in advance.......

Mizhou is a large state in the south of the Qilu Peninsula, that is, today's Zhucheng and Rizhao area, Mizhou is also an important salt production area, Zhu Zhu launched an offensive against Li Na, a big purpose is to seize the seaside salt field, at present, the Mizhou salt field is still recruiting salt workers, has not officially started production.

The capital of Mizhou is Zhucheng County, located in the middle of Mizhou, close to Weishui, which is still one hundred and fifty miles away from the sea, so the Mizhou garrison must be divided into two routes, one way to monitor the salt workers drying salt on the seaside, and at the same time be responsible for escorting the salt convoy to Yizhou.

Zhucheng County is an upper county, the circumference of the city is about 30 miles, the population is nearly 10,000 households, mainly for agriculture for a living, business in general, mainly here does not rely on the traffic arteries, basically are local commerce, a commercial street concentrates more than 100 traditional shops such as restaurants, inns, grain stores, grocery stores and the like.

In the middle of the county, there is a very big inn, called Langya Inn, Mizhou is also called Langya County, the inn that can be named Langya must have a deep background, Langya County has been a gathering place of famous families since ancient times, like Zhuge Liang's family is from Langya County, as well as the famous Wang family of the Eastern Jin Dynasty.

At present, the famous family in Mizhou has declined, and there is no county in the world, which is also because the Sui and Tang dynasties prospered in the east of the Guanlong River, and suppressed the former hometown of the Northern Qi Dynasty more heavily, and the main family in Mizhou is still the Wang family, and this Langya Inn is the asset of the Wang family.

At noon that day, a tall and burly guest came out of the inn, and the shopkeeper greeted him with a smile, "Master Zhou went out to eat!" ”

Zhou Ye is Zhou Fei, he was just ordered to come from Quanzhou, and was sent to Mizhou by Li Bing before his foothold was stable, Zhou Fei has been coming to Zhucheng County for three days, he is very disciplined, and he has basically figured out the details of Zhucheng County, and today he wants to go to the city to have a look.

Zhou Fei nodded and smiled: "I will have a friend, and I will come back later in the afternoon." ”

"No problem, Master Zhou is free!"

Zhou Fei walked to the front of a restaurant, the restaurant is called Wangdong Restaurant, which can be ranked in the top five in Zhucheng County, it is a three-story restaurant, Zhou Fei walked to the door of the restaurant, and the bartender greeted him warmly, "This master is alone?" ”

Zhou Fei smiled and asked, "Is Hu Ye here?" ”

The bartender hurriedly said: "Master Hu is already here, on the second floor, this master is invited!" ”

Zhou Fei nodded with a smile, walked towards the second floor, and just walked up the stairs, a dark and fat middle-aged man by the window beckoned to him: "Brother Zhou, this way!" This way! ”

This black and fat middle-aged man is what Zhou Fei said about Hu Ye, his name is Hu Yanjie, he is a well-known bad handsome man in Mizhou, that is, the leader of hooligans and scoundrels, and a well-known local snake in Zhucheng County.

Hu Yanjie is old, he is no longer as fighting and killing as he was when he was young, he pays more attention to prestige, makes useful friends, and there is absolutely no problem to ask him for help when there is something, of course, he is not free, and it depends on the difficulty of doing things to collect money.

Yesterday, Zhou Fei was introduced by a local subordinate and met Hu Yanjie, who proposed that he wanted to go to the city for a walk, Hu Yanjie agreed, and offered thirty taels of silver.

Zhou Fei sat down opposite him, Hu Yanjie had already ordered the wine and food, of course, Zhou Fei paid for the treat.

"It's okay today!" Zhou Fei sat down and asked.

"I'll do things, don't worry."

Hu Yanjie diligently filled the wine glass in front of him, and said with a smile: "Eat first, let's set off after eating!" ”

Zhou Fei drank a glass of wine and began to eat, the two of them finished eating a table of food like autumn wind sweeping leaves, Zhou Fei paid the bill, he took out thirty taels of silver and put it on the table, and pushed it in front of Hu Yanjie.

Hu Yanjie shook his head and refused to accept the money.

"It's my honor to be able to do things for Zhou Ye, how can I collect cash."

Don't look at Hu Yanjie as a scoundrel, but he can get to today's status, how can he not have a little superhuman eyesight.

He had already guessed that Zhou Fei was the Jin army, and the Jin army had already occupied most of the territory of Qi State, so it was natural for him to take action against Mizhou next, at this time, of course, he could not help the crumbling Zhu Jun army, and he could do something for the Jin army, which would help improve his status in the future.

Naturally, he did not accept the money.

Zhou Fei pushed the silver forward again, "You broke the rules, how can I trust you?" ”

"I don't have to collect money for everything, Zhou Ye can rest assured, my parents, wife and children are in Mizhou, and I won't do stupid things."

Zhou Fei smiled, "The mind is the mind, the rules are the rules, you also have to spend money to help others, you can't let you pay out of your own pocket." ”

Hu Yanjie thought about it and accepted twenty taels of silver, and pushed back the ten taels of silver to Zhou Fei, "I only spent twenty taels of silver to deal with others." ”

Zhou Fei nodded, accepted the ten taels of silver, and asked with a smile: "What should I do next?" ”

"Master Zhou, come with me!"
