Chapter 565, New Situation 7
Zhang Yi said: "What is written on this paper is the result of my detailed investigation by sending many people in recent years, in addition to these, there are also Sun Chuanting's side, Li Zicheng's side, I don't need it now, and I don't need to say it." γFengyun Reading Network. You have to keep a good note of these people, and when you meet them, you can do it in a targeted manner. β
Li Yan said: "You do these things, does the king know?" β
Zhang Yi smiled: "This little thing, you don't have to trouble the king." What he wants for the old man is the military strategy, and as for the specific implementation, it is the courtiers' actions. β
Li Yan listened, his heart sank, in his impression, Zhang Yi has always been a genius, and he can be said to be a person through the ages in diplomacy. On weekdays, I only see him in the C department, as if he is not doing his job, but who knew that he secretly put in such a big effort to find out the inside information of all the candidates.
At this time, Li Yan finally understood why Zhang Yi was so sure that he could mobilize all the families and join forces to resist the Qing Dynasty. The fundamental reason is that he has already understood the situation of all walks of life and knows it in his heart.
The success of any business does not depend on a flash of inspiration by chance.
Li Yan secretly admired, Zhang Yi folded the paper and handed it to Li Yan: "Go back and copy it carefully, you can work the way." We only talked about where to start when we met Zuo Liangyu and Zhang Xianzhong. Li Yan nodded: "What is your opinion?" β
Zhang Yi said: "As you said, you have to go to Zuo Liangyu first, Zuo Liangyu is a person, he doesn't love treasures, he doesn't hesitate to be famous, he only loves one thing, that is, strength." Therefore, when you see him, you must start from this aspect and tell him that if you don't fight Zhang Xianzhong, sooner or later Zhang Xianzhong's wings will harden and he will come to attack him. β
Li Yan nodded: "It's not difficult to say. It's just that Zhang Xianzhong's side is a little troublesome. β
Zhang Yi smiled: "As long as you convince Tang Sai'er, she will naturally have a plan to let Zhang Xianzhong send troops." Li Yan blushed: "Miss Tang, I'm afraid it's even more troublesome." She already hated me, and she said that she would embarrass me and make me regret it, and now I go to her, isn't it humiliating myself? β
Zhang Yi said: "Big husband, bow your head when you should bow your head, as long as the thing is done, there is nothing to be ashamed of." On the contrary, it is a shame to be arrogant and fail to accomplish anything. β
Li Yan frowned, and his meaning loosened slightly.
Zhang Yi said: "Think about Gou Jian back then, if there was no low-voiced surrender husband, how could there be revenge later?" β
Li Yan nodded lightly: "I understand." I'm afraid that Miss Tang will bring up the old things again, and it will be difficult for me to agree. β
Zhang Yi smiled: "Isn't it just to marry one more wife." Don't worry, you can say yes. Li Yan was taken aback: "Promise to come down?" Then Miss Tang must come back with me......" Zhang Yi shook her head: "Absolutely not, Miss Tang is a person who understands the general situation and understands the overall situation, you go to talk to Zhang Xianzhong, she will help you say, if it is done, the two of you go back to Guanzhong together, will Zhang Xianzhong do what you say?" He will think that you are going to recruit Miss Tang, and even if Miss Tang wants to come back with you, it is impossible. Zhang Xianzhong will never let go. Therefore, no matter what Miss Tang asks you in private, you have to agree. β
Li Yan said: "But if you promise to come down, if you can't do it in the future?" Wouldn't it hurt people for a lifetime? β
Zhang Yi smiled: "It doesn't take a lifetime." As long as the Qin army destroys Zhang Xianzhong, Miss Tang will naturally return. It's never too late to bother with that. β
Li Yan sighed: "I knew that if I followed Mr., I couldn't learn loyalty, righteousness and benevolence, and my belly was full of thick black." He has a thick skin and a black heart. β
Zhang Yi smiled and nodded: "In the peaceful and prosperous times, loyalty and filial piety are naturally advocated, and in troubled times, thick black is still useful." You must already know this. β
After the two of them finished drinking, Li Yan said goodbye and went home, and said to the red lady, the red lady is a person who understands the overall situation, and knows that this season is related to the development plan of the Qin army, and what Zhang Yi said is also reasonable, if he makes any more requests for Li Yan's trip, it will be a bit excessive. So she didn't say anything.
In fact, the red lady and Tang Sai'er don't know much about each other, she only knows that this Tang Sai'er loves her husband deeply, and her behavior is bold, far from being like herself.
The red lady was born in the rivers and lakes and has a heroic personality, but she is extremely shy about her children, while Tang Sai'er was born in an official family and has a deep temperament, but she is very bold in love, these two women can be said to have completely different temperaments.
Soon Bai Qi also came to Li Yan's mansion and told Li Yan that he had selected five hundred iron horsemen to escort him all the way. And instructed the Qin army along the way to be careful and careful, so as not to have an accident on the way.
Li Yan thanked Bai Qi, and after sending him away, he took out the piece of paper written by Zhang Yi, read it carefully, and thought of a countermeasure in his mind.
The next day, Li Yan went to King Qin's mansion first and reported to King Qin, saying that he was going to leave tomorrow, King Qin nodded: "And don't worry, bring all the things that are used on the road, and bring some more money, you may be able to use it." Take all the goods in the treasury and make an inventory. β
Li Yan thanked him, he went on an envoy this time, because he wanted to meet a few key people, and he really couldn't do it without money.
Coming out of the Qin Palace, Li Yan arranged everything properly, and then went home, the red lady had already prepared food and clothing for him on the road, and the two talked in the middle of the night, and it was difficult to leave.
Early the next morning, Li Yan finished freshening up, had breakfast, and was ready to go. At this time, the five hundred iron horsemen selected by Bai Qi for him also arrived, and there were dozens of carts in the team, which were loaded with tents, food, water, silver and other things.
Li Yan led people to the east gate, and as soon as he arrived at the city gate, he saw that the king of Qin had already led all the civil and military generals of the Qin army, and he was waiting here, and he was going to see Li Yan off in person. Li Yan hurriedly dismounted and knelt down in front of the King of Qin, who pulled him up and advised: "This is related to the great cause of the Qin army, and Li Gongzi must be attentive." Pay attention to safety along the way, and only want to hear the echo early. β
Li Yan thanked the king of Qin, said goodbye to the ministers one by one, pulled the horse and walked a hundred steps, and then got on the horse and led the five hundred iron horsemen to Tongguan.
Tongguan's Shehuai received the order of General Bai Qi early, as soon as Li Yan arrived, he immediately took him into the pass, Li Yan rested here for a day, and the next day he went out of Tongguan and came to Nanyang.
This road is the territory of the Qin army, every county, there are local defender generals out to respond, so the walk is very smooth, not long walk, to Xinyang.
Xinyang was just received by the Qin army from the hands of Da Shunguo, and also controlled Miyang and Runan, among the three counties, Xinyang was the leader, so General Zhang Gong set up his base camp in Xinyang.
As soon as Li Yan arrived, Zhang Gong immediately picked him up and washed the dust. During the banquet, Li Yan asked about the situation in this area and even in Nanming, and Zhang Gong said: "Our army received the three counties, which was very smooth, but it was not Li Zicheng's sincere concession, it was really that he had more than enough heart and not enough strength. These three counties are at the junction of Huguang, and Huguang belongs to the border of Nanming, so if Dashun wants to prevent Nanming from attacking, it is necessary to station heavy troops in the three counties, but most of Li Zicheng's men and horses are in Hebei, and Henan focuses on Luoyang, so there are very few people in this area, and he is worried that the three counties will be captured by Nanming. In this way, between Nanming and Dashun, there is our C leg, and Dashun is safe. β
Li Yan nodded: "This is exactly what Mr. Zhang Yi expected, is there any movement in Nanming now?" β
Zhang Gong said with a smile: "Since the victory of the anti-Qing Dynasty, Ma Jinzhong lost the generals, but he didn't get anything, Zuo Liangyu was very angry, and he had the intention of entering the army, but now that the three counties have returned to the Qin army, Zuo Liangyu had to suppress this anger, but I heard that he was a little dissatisfied with the Qin army, thinking that the families joined forces to defeat the Qing army, and in the end, only the Qin army got the land of the three counties, and the other few roads did not get an inch of land, and they helped Li Zicheng in vain. Therefore, Zuo Liangyu is angry, and at this time, Li Gongzi's burden is not light. β
Li Yan smiled: "Don't be afraid, as long as he Zuo Liangyu hasn't torn his face with us openly, there will be room for maneuver." Besides, on this mission, I also brought Mr. Zhang Yi's clever plan, and I will definitely not make a mistake. β
Zhang Gong laughed: "That's the best." β
Li Yan did not tell Zhang Gong the true purpose of his envoy, this kind of top-secret matter is only known to the King of Qin and several important ministers under him, and it must not be leaked, even the generals who were resurrected with the King of Qin. This was what King Qin secretly told him.
Li Yan only rested for one day here in Zhanggong, so he set off with his men and horses and went straight to Wuchang.
His envoy this time did not create much momentum, and even had some intention of secretly acting, but no matter how secret, the military horses of more than 500 people could not hide Zuo Liangyu's report. Li Yan also understood, so when he entered the boundary of Nanming, he sent someone to inform the local county seat and let the officials of Nanming know about it.
From here to Wuchang, all are Zuo Liangyu's sphere of influence, Zhu Yousong of the Southern Ming Dynasty also sent officials here, but Zuo Liangyu was arrogant and domineering, and there was no courtesy for these officials, and even sent people to make trouble secretly, these officials couldn't sit still, afraid of their own lives, so they all resigned and went back, Zhu Yousong had no choice but to appoint Zuo Liangyu as the head of the march of Hubei Province, and even the political affairs in this area were decided by him.
Zuo Liangyu received the order, and he was proud in his heart, so he sent his subordinates to various county towns around Wuchang to manage the county governance and garrison the garrison. Therefore, as soon as Li Yan arrived, someone immediately reported it to him.
As soon as Zuo Liangyu heard that Li Yan had come to envoy at the behest of King Qin, he sneered in his heart, and secretly thought, the Qin army is here to ease the relationship, Zhang Yi is talking nonsense, deceiving me to send troops, but he didn't even get back one or two military expenses, and he also folded some people in vain.
