Chapter 564, New Situation 6
Bai Qi smiled: "Everything is in accordance with the king's will." γLatest chapter reading. King Qin said: "Once the two of them fight hard, our Qin army can suddenly attack, but this matter of advancing must be done in concealment." Don't let them hear the rumors, or it won't work. β
Bai Qi said: "This is not difficult, the minister can secretly transfer troops, enter Hanzhong first, let these people wear ordinary people's clothes, and once the time is ripe, immediately enter the army." β
King Qin was overjoyed: "This is very good. Destroy Zhang Xianzhong first and seize Sichuan, this is the next strategy of our Qin army, in order to stabilize the situation, the Guhui will send people to continue to communicate with Li Zicheng and Sun Chuanting, and the monarchs can go all out to look south, and they don't have to think about anything else. β
The three of them stood up in unison and complied.
King Qin said: "Now that the general has returned to Guanzhong, the dispatch of all the horses is still in charge of the general, and the princess ......."
Ji Mengdie walked over and handed the soldier seal letter to Bai Qi.
Bai Qi hurriedly knelt down and took it, not daring to slack off.
Everyone resigned from King Qin and Ji Mengdie, and went back to their homes. Li Yan returned to his residence, saw the Red Lady, and told the King of Qin what he had explained, and the Red Lady frowned after hearing it: "Husband, you go to Nanming and Sichuan, I don't have to worry about security, after all, we just joined forces to defeat the Qing army." Relations on all sides are not yet strained. However, it is not easy to provoke a war between the two families, and once it fails, it is difficult to explain in front of the king. Have you thought about it? β
Li Yan smiled: "How could I not have imagined such a result?" But this is the next strategy of the Qin army, there is no possibility of change, if you do not take Sichuan, you will not be able to advance eastward smoothly in the future, and Zhang Xianzhong has a heavy army, the terrain of Sichuan is dangerous, and it will definitely not work to attack clearly. This required Zhang Xianzhong to take the Qin army into Sichuan, just like Liu Zhang welcomed Liu Bei back then. β
The red lady said: "I know this plan is very good, but Zhang Xianzhong is cunning, will he be fooled?" You have to know that Zhang Xianzhong is not the Liu Zhang of the year. β
Li Yan said: "I understand, but Mr. Zhang Yi said that this matter belongs to me." β
The red lady glanced at him: "How do you say this?" Li Yan frowned: "Mr. wants me to go and talk about the military advisor next to Zhang Xianzhong first." The red lady showed a light smile on her lips: "Who?" So important? β
Li Yan scratched her nose with his hand: "You asked knowingly." β
The red lady grinned: "Naturally, they are celebrities under Zhang Xianzhong, and Zhang Xianzhong obeys her." Mr. Zhang's request for you to meet her first is naturally a good plan. As long as you Li Gongzi arrives, that military advisor will definitely help you talk about Zhang Xianzhong. Right? β
Li Yan sighed: "But I really don't want to see her again." β
The red lady said: "Why? She's a beautiful woman. Li Yan said: "Lady, if you joke again, it will be a little undignified." I'm down to business. β
The red lady smiled: "I know, I know, when did you ever make a joke?" You're always getting down to business. β
Li Yan shook his head lightly: "Mr. Zhang Yi is right, when Miss Tang left, she once let go of her words and asked me to regret it, if I don't go to see her and ease the relationship, then she will definitely persuade Zhang Xianzhong not to listen to me." In that case, I'll have to run for nothing. But I still have an idea, this time the king wants to provoke Nanming to start a war with Zhang Xianzhong, even if I can't move Zhang Xianzhong, as long as I can say that Zuo Liangyu can be moved. Once Zuo Liangyu sends troops to attack Sichuan, Zhang Xianzhong will inevitably face the battle, isn't this a thing? β
The red lady said: "But will Zuo Liangyu listen to you?" β
Li Yan said: "Right now, Zuo Liangyu is self-respecting and arrogant, and he doesn't even pay attention to his master, but he knows a truth, that is, heroes in troubled times rise from all directions, and if there are soldiers, they are the king of grass." Zuo Liangyu will never easily damage his strength. So it's not easy to talk about him. β
The red lady said: "Compared to it, it is easier for Zhang Xianzhong. Li Yan said: "But I don't want to see Miss Tang." The red lady smiled: "You better go and see it, I won't be angry." This is related to the great cause of King Qin, and it is also related to your future, Qin Jun can't always stay in Guanzhong and be the king of grass. Sooner or later, King Qin will rule the world, and you will be his right-hand man. I want you to be famous all over the world. β
Li Yan held his wife's hand: "But once Miss Tang wants to threaten me, she has to promise me, otherwise she won't help me, then what should I do?" According to my heart, I would never want to marry someone else, but I can't think of a good way to refuse. β
The red lady laughed out loud: "Say you're stupid, you're really stupid." It's a difficult problem, but it's not hard to solve. β
Li Yan hurriedly asked, "How to untie it?" β
The red lady said: "Who has to let you be a lobbyist?" Since he dares to recommend you, he must have a mature plan, why don't you ask? β
A sentence woke up the person in the dream, Li Yan laughed: "I forgot, the king also said that if there is anything unsafe, just ask Zhang Yi, it seems that the king has thought of it for me." β
After speaking, he left the house and went straight to Zhang Yi.
When I arrived outside Zhang Yi's door, it was almost noon, and the gatekeeper seemed to be waiting for a long time.
Li Yan often comes to Zhang Yi's house, and he is very familiar with it, just like when he arrives at his own home, he goes directly through the second gate and comes to the hall. I met Zhang Yi's wife, the big shopkeeper of Wu Xinlan. Li Yan hurriedly stepped forward to give a salute and called him a master.
On some formal occasions, Li Yan always regarded himself as Zhang Yi's disciple, so Wu Xinlan was the master.
When Wu Xinlan saw Li Yan coming, she pursed her lips and smiled: "Come in." Your master is waiting for you. β
Li Yan entered the hall and took a look, and sure enough, Zhang Yizheng was holding a book, reading it intently, and when he heard someone coming in, he looked up and said with a smile: "I guess you're almost there, come on, come on, start eating." β
Li Yan Dingqing took a look, it turned out that there was a table of wine in the room, and it seemed that it had just been placed.
Zhang Yi couldn't help but say, pulled Li Yan to sit down, and at this time Wu Xinlan walked in, holding a pot of freshly scalded wine in her hand, as well as two cups, and put it in front of the two: "You master and apprentice talk." β
Li Yan hurriedly said: "Let's eat together." Wu Xinlan smiled: "If you have something to talk about, I won't listen, just go out in a while, you just leave me alone." β
Zhang Yi also said: "That is, men talk about military affairs, and women just serve food and wine." β
Wu Xinlan glanced at Zhang Yi, Zhang Yi lost her temper and stiffened her neck: "What? Is this prime minister wrong? Wu Xinlan's hand waved, but put it down again, and made a blessing: "You are right, my Prime Minister." β
After saying that, he retreated.
Li Yan smiled and said: "Sir, your family is quite well-behaved, my sister used to be not very respectful to you, but now it is much better." Zhang Yi snorted: "Mother-in-law, you have to have a rule, in front of people, if you don't give your husband face, then what do you want her to do"
Li Yan nodded, filled Zhang Yi with wine, and the master and apprentice drank it.
After drinking three glasses of wine, Li Yan asked, "Sir, you knew I was coming early in the morning." Zhang Yi smiled and said, "The king said so, can you still come?" But even if the king doesn't say this, I'll invite you over. Because I asked for this errand for you. And it's not easy. β
Li Yan said: "The students also have a lot of worries, so they came to ask Mr. for advice." β
Zhang Yi drank half a glass of wine and smacked her lips: "Let's not worry, let's talk slowly, this time, we must count all the possibilities, do you think, in these two families, who can you say to send troops?" β
Li Yan frowned: "To be honest, I'm not sure." Since Zuo Liangyu led the army to fight, more and more men and horses have been fighting, from a few thousand people in the past to 100,000 now, which shows that Zuo Liangyu is very cunning in using troops and refuses to suffer losses in wars. How easy is it to let him go up the river and attack Sichuan on a large scale? And Zhang Xianzhong's side is in the same situation. Zuo Liangyu has always been Zhang Xianzhong's nemesis, and it is impossible for Zhang Xianzhong to take the initiative to attack. I don't think even if Miss Tang helps me, I can't say it. β
Zhang Yi said: "You think it out very well, put all the difficulties out first, this is what a lobbyist and debater should do." If you have difficulties, then find a way to overcome them. β
Li Yan said: "I just can't overcome it, so I came to ask Mr. β
Zhang Yi smiled: "Don't worry, let's figure it out together." Don't you often say that three stinkers can top Zhuge Liang? The two of us are better than the stooge. Come on, come on, look at this. β
After speaking, Zhang Yi got up and took a piece of paper from the bookcase, on which were a few lines of words that had just been written. In front of Li Yan's eyes, Li Yan took a closer look and found that what was written was Zhang Xianzhong and Zuo Liangyu's attitude towards the important people around him.
Zhang Yi divided these people into categories, including general figures, important people, and key people, and for key people, he listed the characteristics and preferences of these people.
Li Yan was stunned after reading it: "Sir, you don't record Zhang Xianzhong and Zuo Liangyu, but remember the people around him, how useful is this?" β
Zhang Yi smiled: "You have to remember that a character who can become a candidate must have his advantages, and although these advantages are varied, there is one thing in common, that is, listening to the suggestions of the people around him." It's hard to say that there is a candidate who, by his own thoughts, has become a great thing. Therefore, the people around Zhang Xianzhong and Zuo Liangyu directly affect their decision-making. The key figures around Zhang Xianzhong are Tang Sai'er, Sun Kewang, and Li Dingguo, while Zuo Liangyu has two guests around him, who are also his think tanks, one is called Zhou Xin and the other is Wei Fan. I secretly sent a detailed investigation into all this information. Very reliable. β
Li Yan nodded: "Sir, you mean that you want me to approach these people first?" β
