On this spring night, on the long bridge, Liu Chengyou's words box was completely opened, as if he wanted to say enough of the words that had been held in his heart since the crossing. There is a little more active color in Gao Leng's face, and he talks eloquently and endlessly. Seeing the appearance of the second son pointing out the country, Liu Zhiyuan quietly listened to the audience.

"In the afternoon of the day, after the meeting, I specially invited General Wang Xiufeng to the courtyard to consult on the Central Plains and Khitan affairs, and I gained a lot!" Speaking of Xingtou, Liu Chengyou couldn't help but add a small movement in his hand, and dangled in the air a few times: "General Wang has concluded that the Khitans are not as difficult to deal with as imagined, and the Khitans will definitely not be able to hold the Central Plains, and sooner or later they will retreat north!" ”

"Tell me about it!" Liu Zhiyuan's face was still full of interest.

Liu Chengyou's interest obviously came, so he stood up directly, paced a few steps in front of his father and brother, and said, "What my father is most afraid of is Yelu Deguang and the 300,000 Khitan army. 300,000 people, what a powerful force, but if you analyze it carefully, it is not so terrifying! ”

"The Khitans claim to be 300,000, but how many soldiers do they have, and how many elites are there? Coming south, before the battle of the Hutuo River, it was not a smooth road, fighting all the way, the soldiers were reduced, and the quota was not full for a long time. The land of Ji Zhao is vast, and the prefectures and counties that have passed through them also leave soldiers and horses, control the place, and fortify the fortress like Zhenzhou, and garrison heavy troops to protect the way back. ”

After entering Bianliang, he sent troops and horses to plunder everywhere, and also sent soldiers and horses to the land of Guanzhong and Heyang. Hundreds of thousands of horses, scattered in various states, but specializing in looting, enjoying the flowery world of the Central Plains, morale will inevitably be depressed. ”

However, these are not the most important, the tyranny and abuse of the Khitans will be repeated by the people of the Central Plains, there is no doubt about it! At this time, Jerod sat on the fire, and he did not know it. It was strong with 300,000 Hu soldiers, but he didn't know the power of the anger of the people of the Central Plains, which broke out, which was enough to break his bones. ”

"The Jin army surrendered 100,000 soldiers, suffered from harsh treatment and suspicion, and was sometimes threatened with his life, and he was angry and angry, and he had already complained. Although there is Du Chongwei and Li Shouzhen's flow of bullets, but the virtue of those two people has long been despised. Those 100,000 soldiers, not only were they not the help of the Khitans to control the Central Plains, but now they have become a deadly threat to their couches! ”

"The money was wanton, so that the remnants of the Great Jin Dynasty, who were originally attached, gradually separated. The audience of the surrendered Zhujiedu, or death or humiliation, the rest are mostly confined to Bianliang and do not return to the town. In Bianjieshuai, people with outstanding qualifications, abilities, and prestige, such as Gao Xingzhou and Fu Yanqing, are deeply jealous of Yelu Deguang, and they may also regret surrendering to the Khitan. If you lose the heart of the festivals, then the place will no longer want to be stable. ”

"And the local festivals in various places still have a certain amount of strength in their hands, as long as someone takes the lead in resisting the Khitan, they will inevitably respond in groups."

"My father raised troops in Hedong, or he could only send tens of thousands of troops, but the people who complemented him were millions of soldiers and civilians in the Central Plains and Hebei."

"And now that the ice and snow have disappeared, the weather is warmer, the Khitan soldiers are on an expedition of thousands of miles, and it is inevitable that there will be people who are not accustomed to the water and soil. Once the people of the Central Plains rise up and resist each other, how can Yelu Deguang stay for a long time? ”

“......”

After a big discussion, Liu Chengyou said that he was a little excited, breathed a long sigh of relief, and slowly calmed down some ups and downs, and then sat next to his father and brother again.

Liu Zhiyuan and Liu Chengxun both looked at Liu Chengyou, who was gradually returning to his autistic state, and their expressions were a little complicated. After digesting what Liu Chengyou said, Liu Zhiyuan sighed softly: "Aren't these all taught by Wang Xiufeng to you......"

"Son, if there is any omission or inappropriateness, please forgive me!" Liu Chengyou lowered his head slightly and made a modest gesture.

After staring at Liu Chengyou for a long time, Liu Zhiyuan suddenly stroked his beard and said with emotion: "I never thought that my son would have this insight, I am very relieved!" Sighing, Yu Guang couldn't help but glance at the eldest son beside him.

Raising his eyes and looking around, the bridge in the middle city was quieter, his hands supporting the ground, and he wanted to get up. At this time, Liu Chengxun immediately stepped up and helped Liu Zhiyuan up.

"It's late, let's go back to the house and rest!" Leaving a sentence, but he didn't say anything more, under the escort of the guards, Liu Zhiyuan walked slowly first.

Liu Chengyou and Liu Chengxun also went down the bridge together, Liu Chengyou continued to shut himself up, but Liu Chengxun did not take the initiative to find something to say as before. When stepping into the car, Liu Chengxun couldn't help but look in the direction of his second brother, and his expression was particularly complicated......

What Liu Chengxun didn't know was that in the car he was looking at, through the gap in the curtain, Liu Chengyou also looked at his figure. The difference is that Liu Chengyou has no so-called complicated expression on his face, just indifference.

......

Since that day's meeting, in Jinyang City, the undercurrent called "persuasion" has become more and more turbulent. In this matter, it is rare for Hedong Wenwu to work together to elevate Liu Zhiyuan to the throne.

It's just that Liu Zhiyuan's attitude is still unpredictable, neither agreeing nor refusing, but not responding with a cold face. Later, he handed over all the important military and political affairs to his subordinates, and no longer looked at things, and he lived in the palace of Beiping, accompanied his wife Li, and personally trained Liu Chengxun, the third man of the Liu family.

Liu Zhiyuan was able to sit firmly in Diaoyutai, but the civil and military officials below did not stop their movements at all, and actively gathered in series, and for a while, Jinyang City looked chaotic.

Among the civil and military forces in Hedong, there are not many smart people, like Yang Wei, Wang Zhang, Guo Wei, these old people who have followed for a long time, with the development of the situation, they probably guessed Liu Zhiyuan's mind of waiting and waiting, not as reckless as the people below, but tried their best to appease.

Latecomers like Wang Jun, eager to make contributions, found some literati, ran around the market, and loudly announced what he had seen and heard along the way, made the Khitan atrocities public, and even vigorously preached the "Khitan threat theory", saying that the Khitan army could send troops to Hedong at any time.

Of course, the most important thing is that the world needs a hero who drives away Hulu, cleans up the country, and recreates the world, and this hero is naturally none other than Taiyuan Liu Gong!

Wang Jun's approach is very smart, just like Liu Chengyou said in the conversation on the other side that day, General Wang Xiufeng is a smart person. At least, before he became famous and his character flaws were exposed, Wang Jun was indeed a very smart person. This set of momentum is very slippery.

Two days after Wang Jun made Bian's return, Bai Wenke, the deputy left-behind guard in Beijing, who also went south to pay homage, also returned, and compared with Wang Jun, his speed back and forth was much faster, and similarly, he was even more embarrassed.

The old general, who is more than a little old, still looks very tough on his body, he doesn't care about the fatigue of the saddle horse, and with a body of dust, he directly meets Liu Zhiyuan and asks him about the comeback envoy.

Liu Zhiyuan was secretly listening to Liu Chong, Liu Xin, Shi Hongzhao, Guo Wei and others report on the situation in the army, and Liu Chengyou and the two brothers were also listed, and he also told about the situation of the Longqi Army.

Ordered to sit down with Bai Wenke left and right, Liu Zhiyuan asked, "Duke Dewen, how is the trip to Bianliang?" ”

Bai Wenke first thanked him, then shook his head, and his ravine-ridden old face had some emotion: "The Khitan political turmoil, I'm afraid I can't stay in China for a long time!" I watched the whole ceremony of the enthronement of the Khitan lord, and I was calm, without the prosperity of the establishment of a new dynasty. ”

"It's similar to what Wang Jun gets!" Liu Zhiyuan sighed with emotion.

Bai Wenke continued: "When you leave Bian, the Khitan Lord asked me to bring you a message! ”

"That lonely man wants to hear it!" Liu Zhiyuan looked very relaxed.

"The Khitan lord said that the king is neither in the Southern Dynasty nor in the Northern Dynasty, what are you waiting for, what are your plans?" Bai Wenke said.

"Hehe......" Liu Zhiyuan smiled when he heard this, and glanced at the officers present: "It seems that this Khitan lord doesn't have much patience with Gu and Hedong!" ”

"King, such questions are enough to show his suspicions, and now there is no way back!" It was Guo Wei again, and he reacted very quickly and asked: "According to Wang Xiufeng and Bai Gong's words, the Khitan is greedy and cruel, and it will not be able to have China for a long time, please don't hesitate any longer!" ”

Liu Zhiyuan still did not respond.
