Chapter 274: Profit from Chaos

Tian Chengsi pondered for a moment, stood up, and walked straight towards the city gate building. Seeing this, Fei Zhong smiled slightly, tightened his thick coat, and walked in as well.

Tian Chengsi waved his hand to let all the people in the city gate tower retreat, and he sat behind a table, pointed to the opposite position, and motioned for Fei Zhong to sit down as well.

The two sat opposite each other, and after a while, Tian Chengsi spoke: "General Fei, the Ming people don't say secret words, it is indeed as you said, now is a chaotic world, you Zhang Shuai started in the north, and I, Wei Bo, have always been ambitious, so naturally I am not unprepared." The rise of Chengde Li Ze is indeed surprising and unexpected. The original sick cat gradually has a tendency to grow into a tiger, saying that I am not worried, that is false. But ......"

"But the envoy of the field is not ready, is he?" Fei Zhong said with a smile.

"Nature." Tian Chengsi nodded and said: "I am not like Zhang Zhongwu, I have unique conditions, a vast control area, a large number of generals under my command and loyalty to him, and I have conquered most of the Khitan, so I have to do more work, and before that, any behavior that exposes my true strategic intentions is unwise to me." I'm too close to Chang'an. ”

Fei Zhong nodded and said, "Tian Shuai's concerns are very reasonable. Therefore, this time the operation is led by us, but we need Tian Shuai's assistance from the side. ”

"What assistance?" Tian Chengsi asked.

"I, Lu Long, have about two hundred elites, and I've arrived at Weibo." Looking at Tian Chengsi's slightly changing face, Fei Zhong said disapprerovantly: "In addition, there are about more than a hundred relatives and friends of Suning, who will be the main force attacking Li Ze this time." ”

"As far as I know, Li Ze's trip this time, although the number of people is small, but they are the main force under his command, if you want to succeed in a battle, it is extremely difficult, even if you kill everyone, just let Li Ze escape, that is a failure." Tian Chengsi said.

Fei Zhong smiled slightly: "This manpower is naturally not enough." But I know that Tian Shuai also has a unit that is not outside, and if they also join, it will naturally be foolproof. ”

"What's the difference between doing this and me doing it myself?" Tian Chengsi shook his head and said.

"No, there's a difference!" Fei Zhongdao: "After the matter is completed, the more than 300 people on our side, no matter how many are left, are all evidence that Tian Shuai used to deal with the world's leisurely mouth." ”

"What do you mean?" Tian Chengsi asked in surprise.

"Because they came, they didn't think about going back. After the matter is completed, the dead will naturally die, and those who are alive will be caught by the other party, and they are indeed my Lu Long's people, so people in the world will naturally only think that this matter was done by me Lu Long for revenge and to destroy the situation of Chengde, and it has nothing to do with Tian Shuai. ”

Tian Chengsi looked at Fei Zhong intently for a long time before he said: "Under the rule of Zhang Shuai, there are people who are so willing to sacrifice their lives to achieve their great cause, it is really admirable, I want to know, who is the person who commanded this attack?" Is he worth the big risk I have to take to do this? ”

"Yingzhou Thorn History, Shi Yi." Fei Zhong said lightly.

Tian Chengsi was stunned: "Shi Yi is a veteran under Zhang Shuai, and he is famous, but now he is actually using it as a one-time assassin?" ”

Shi Yi lost Yingzhou, leaving Lu Long in a passive position on the strategic level, although Zhang Shuai did not blame him, but he himself blamed himself. So this time he volunteered. Fei Zhong said angrily.

Tian Chengsi smiled: "That's all? ”

"Of course it's more than that!" Fei Zhong said with a smile: "After this defeat, the Shi family's vitality has been greatly damaged, and Shi Yi's retirement is inevitable, which is an explanation that Zhang Shuai will inevitably give to his subordinates." Shi Yi's move was also to fight for the Shi family, and to exchange his death for the stability of the Shi family's position in Lu Long. It is good to teach Tian Shuai to know that on the day of Shi Yi's departure, his son Shi Kuan has been added to the general's number. Although he injured his leg in the battle and was not good at walking, he is now serving as the logistics grain and grass baggage management under Zhang Shuai, which cannot be said to be reused. ”

Tian Chengsi sighed, "It can be regarded as a well-deserved death, since it is Shi Yi personally commanded, then I can rest assured, but I can only send five hundred people." ”

"The scale of nearly 1,000 people, attacking a team of more than 100 people, and these more than 1,000 people are elites, and they are all dead soldiers, this battle is not afraid of failure." Fei Zhong said happily: "As long as Li Ze dies, Chengde will be chaotic, and we can expect a big event." ”

"What do I get after this?" Tian Chengsi asked coldly.

"Henghai and Yizhou are all returned to Tian Shuai, so rewarded, Tian Shuai is still satisfied?" Fei Zhongdao: "Yizhou, Dingzhou, Zhaozhou, Zhenzhou, this is what we must take." Tian Shuai won't want to compete with us for these places, right? ”

Tian Chengsi smiled: "General Fei, this is a fair deal, but I'm very curious, if the matter is really done, how should you and I get along in the future?" ”

Fei Zhongdao: "If you don't say dark words in front of the Ming people, once Chengde is destroyed, it will be difficult to protect Hedong, so that I, Lulong, can occupy the land of Hedong, plus Dingzhou, Yizhou, Zhenzhou, Zhaozhou, in the north, you can be called a hero for a while." And Tian Shuai, if you think that time comes, you will also take the Eastern Capital and even Chang'an. This is because of the geographical conditions of both sides, and even if we are unwilling, there is no way. And at that time, it is natural that the two of us will have to fight again to see who is the boss. Whoever wins will win the entire north, and then unify the army to the south and dominate the world. ”

Tian Chengsi laughed: "Okay, General Fei is also a cheerful person, so calmly relative, it makes me look at you Lu Longren higher." That's it. You've tried your best to attack the location, and you've almost chosen a location, right? ”

"Meng Jin." Fei Zhong said: "It is close to the eastern capital, but it is blocked by the Yellow River, and wherever Li Ze and his party go, their vigilance will inevitably be greatly reduced." ”

"It's a good place indeed." Tian Chengsi nodded in agreement.

"I also ask Tian Shuai to provide weapons, armor, war horses and other supplies for our men and horses, and let them pass through Tian Shuai's jurisdiction smoothly." Fei Zhongdao.

"This is natural."

A day later, in a small camp in a mountain area outside Weizhou, Fei Zhong met the executor of the operation, Shi Yi, the former assassin of Lu Long Yingzhou.

The camp was already full of weapons, armor, and war horses, and after reaching an agreement with Tian Chenghe, these things were replenished to this team that had infiltrated from afar at a very fast speed.

"Lao Shi, this farewell is the eternal secret, don't blame me." Fei Zhong raised his wine glass and saluted Shi Yi opposite.

"What's so strange about that?" Shi Yi said with a smile: "I also want to thank General Fei for giving me this opportunity for the Shi family, with my Shi Yi losing the charge of Yingzhou, my Shi family, should have been beaten to the dust at this moment, there is such an opportunity to turn the book, with my Shi Yi's old body, in exchange for my Shi family's standing, I am too late to be happy!" ”

Fei Zhong nodded slightly: "Those who achieve great things are not informal, Zhang Shuai is like this, and he does it without knowing it, so don't be resentful." ”

Shi Yi shook his head: "There is no matter." I, Lu Long, were originally governed by military law, and I should be rewarded for my merits, and I should be punished for my crimes. Didn't you Fei Shi also donate millions of yuan of family property this time? If it weren't for that, how would I, Lu Long, be so strong now? Shi and Zhang Shuai have long been one, one is honored, and one is humiliated, and they should be willing to be for Zhang Shuai's great cause. ”

Looking at Shi Yi, who was emotional, Fei Zhong felt that his nose was a little sour, although when he formulated this strategy, he was decisive and threw Shi Yi out without pity, but at this time, when facing his comrades for many years, he still felt sorry.

The two drank a few glasses of wine silently, and Shi Yi asked, "Are you going to return to Lu Long next?" If this is successful, then Chengde will inevitably be in chaos, and we will have something to take advantage of. ”

"Zhang Shuai has his own arrangements for things over there, and next, I still have a few places to go." Fei Zhongdao.

"Not going back?" Shi Yi frowned and said: "You are now a wanted criminal in the imperial court, although the prison guards are not as good as in the past, but the hundred-legged insects are dead but not stiff, and there are some marshals from all over the world, so they don't have the intention of selling you to get some benefits?" ”

"I naturally know, but I still have to do what needs to be done, just like you do now, I will also atone for my sins!" Fei Zhong sighed: "Next, I will go to Xuanwu." ”

"Xuanwu? Zhu Wen? ”

"Not bad." Fei Zhong took a sip of wine: "If there is no chaos in this world, our chances of Zhang Shuai will be very small, this point, Gongsun Changming is right, and we still underestimated the influence of the Tang Dynasty in the world." So, I'm going to muddy this pool a little bit and make it a complete mess. ”

"Isn't one Tian Chenghei enough?"

"Tian Chengsi is strong enough, and he is also capable." Fei Zhong thought for a while and said: "But these days, I look at Tian Chenghe's command, and there are many problems, Tian Xu, Tian Ping is the most important general under Tian Chenghe, but the two seem to be incompatible, Tian Xu is Tian Chenghe's nephew, but the power he holds is far beyond Tian Ping." That's where the hidden danger lies. I'm worried that they'll have internal chaos in the future. ”

"Wouldn't it be better for us if they messed up?"

"Before we completely defeat Hedong and gain a firm foothold, if they are in chaos, they will let the imperial court take advantage of the situation." Fei Zhong shook his head and said, "Actually, I am more optimistic about Xuanwu Zhu Wen. A long time ago, Mr. Gongsun and I evaluated the heroes of the world, and this Zhu Wen was far superior to Tian Chenghei's in Mr. Gongsun's evaluation. I believe that Mr. Gongsun will not be wrong. ”

Shi Yi nodded.

"In fact, no matter what they do, this time, I have to do my best to make those ambitious festivals make the towns move, as long as they move, the world will be completely out of the control of the Tang Dynasty, and truly enter the era of a hundred schools of thought, only in this way can we rely on a strong army, all the way south, until success."

"May General Fei have a smooth journey and enjoy your heart."

"I also wish General Shi a smooth trip for you, and you have to kill the enemy chieftain."
