"Boss Gao is too praised, I can only be regarded as a small fight, if it is just like what Boss Gao said, the extermination of the White Lotus Sect will not be delayed until now, let alone hide behind the White Lotus Sect and do it secretly." A faint smile appeared on the corner of Shen Yan's mouth, and he glanced at Gao Yong, knowing that Gao Yong was telling the truth, but this word really couldn't be spread, otherwise it would bring endless trouble to himself.

"Brother Shen, when did you become so cautious, it doesn't look like your style at all." Gao Yong knew the worry in Shen Yan's heart, in addition to himself and Shen Yan, there were also the eighteen princes and the three inner guards, as well as Luo Yuhui's younger sister Luo Yuyi and Lin Peirong, the daughter of Lingnan County Ling Lin Xueqian, of course, as well as Shen Yan's personal army, it is not a bad thing to be more cautious, but Shen Yan's age is so cautious, but it is rare.

"Brother Shen, now that you have taken Wuzhou Mansion again, are you thinking about occupying Wuzhou Mansion?"

"Although Wuzhou Mansion is a very important capital city in Huaibei County, it stands to reason that I should indeed occupy this place." A faint smile appeared on the corner of Shen Yan's mouth, and he said slowly.

"If I occupy here, although I can delay the battle situation in Huaibei County, this is not what I want, it is not what the Royal Army and the servant army of Great Xia want, nor what the emperor wants, besides, there are two deficiencies in staying here, one is that it will invisibly stimulate the inertia of the soldiers, although Wuzhou Mansion is short of food, relatively speaking, it is still very safe here for the time being, after this White Lotus Sect is taken by us, the White Lotus Sect will not send troops for a period of time."

"It's not that the White Lotus Sect doesn't want to send it, but the White Lotus Sect needs to weigh the pros and cons, if a large army is sent, there is no guarantee that Ling will take the opportunity to attack Lingnan, and the most critical point is that if you want to destroy me, you must have more than 50,000 troops, and the key is the generals, but now in addition to the generalissimo or the sect leader, no one in the other generals of the White Lotus Sect dares to lead a large army to fight with me, even if he has this talent, the sect leader, the generalissimo, and Wen Xiang will not believe it."

"The second deficiency left behind is that although it is temporarily safe here, the struggle in the city has not been eliminated, not only for food and grass, but also for rights and interests, the most important thing is that no one in the city obeys anyone, the squire faction, the Hao faction, the remnants of the White Lotus Sect, our faction, although our strength is the strongest, but it involves another level of struggle, force alone can only solve the immediate problem, I can't let the Great Xia Royal Army or the servant army kill all the people in the city who want to fight with me." When Shen Yan said this, a helpless look appeared on the corner of his mouth, no matter where he was, such a struggle always existed, not that he wanted to escape, but that he really didn't have such energy for the time being.

"Then Brother Shen means to let the squires, the wealthy clan, and the remnants of the White Lotus Sect in the city stand on three legs?" Gao Yong said thoughtfully.

"No, it's the balance of the three forces." A faint smile appeared on the corner of Shen Yan's mouth.

"Tripartite forces? I don't really understand the meaning of Brother Shen's words? Could it be that Brother Shen wants to support his own strength? A look of doubt flashed in Gao Yong's eyes.

"No, if I do this, needless to say, the emperor will definitely not spare me." Shen Yan said with an indifferent smile.

"The former army of Jinling must still be near Wuzhou Mansion, when General Luo hears that I have taken Wuzhou Mansion in such a way, he will definitely come."

"Luo Yuhui is still around here, are you sure?" A hint of surprise flashed in Gao Yong's eyes.

"Yes, if I didn't guess, Mr. Luo is already on his way." Shen Yan's eyes showed a confident smile, and he said slowly.

"General Luo's Jinling front army is considered to be the strength of one of the three parties, in addition to the strength of the Jinling front army, I also want to establish the official power of Wuzhou Mansion, no matter when the imperial court really subdues Wuzhou Mansion, Wuzhou Mansion must not be chaotic, and the people of Wuzhou Mansion must live a stable life, and the official combination of Wuzhou Mansion and the squire and the wealthy family will become the second party's force, and the remnants of the White Lotus Sect will be a third-party force."

"Brother Shen, your idea is very good, but there should be great difficulty in actual operation." Gao Yong's brows furrowed slightly, Shen Yan's idea was indeed very good, but it was really not easy to maintain the balance of the strength of the five parties.

"I know this, the Jinling Front Army and the White Lotus Sect will not be able to coexist, and there may even be a combination of the Jinling Front Army and the forces of the Wuzhou Mansion to suppress the remnants of the White Lotus Sect, and the people of the White Lotus Sect are also very hostile to the forces of the Jinling Front Army and the Wuzhou Mansion Government." The corners of Shen Yan's mouth lifted slightly, revealing a hearty smile, and a faint but confident look in his eyes, and continued.

"The government, the squire and the Hao family seem to be a whole, but this whole is not a monolith, especially now that the government of Wuzhou Mansion is weak, the squire is a little better, the Hao family will not be so willing, but the Hao family does not have enough strength, so they can only pin their hopes on the official government."

"Of course, now with the Jinling front army, the Hao family has one more choice, but the Jinling front army is not the head snake, more importantly, the Jinling front army is a good hand in fighting, if it involves local governance and another level of struggle, the Jinling front army really has a lot of shortcomings." Shen Yan paused for a moment when he said this, a faint smile appeared in his eyes, and then he said slowly.

"As for the White Lotus Sect, its strength does not seem to be weak, but it is indeed the weakest of the three parties, it can't beat the Jinling Front Army in a war, and the struggle is not the opponent of the government's side, so it can only survive in the cracks, or even with its tail between its legs."

"The tripartite balance is in line with our vested interests, so, in order to maintain the situation of tripartite balance, how can I let the White Lotus Sect be so aggrieved, of course, I will not let the White Lotus Sect go too far, if not, I will lose my purpose of maintaining the tripartite balance of Wuzhou Mansion."

"But the White Lotus Sect has the most power, if you let the White Lotus Sect turn over a little, wouldn't it destroy your tripartite balance concept." Gao Yong's eyes showed a touch of contemplation, and he said with a little worry.

"Don't worry, I will stay in Wuzhou Mansion for two days to put these things straight, and at the same time, I will once again recruit some of the White Lotus Sect into the servant army, so that the strength of the White Lotus Sect will be weakened, and at the same time, I will also leave a few people to help the White Lotus Sect gain a firm foothold and maintain the tripartite balance." Shen Yan said with an indifferent smile.

In Shen Yan's conception, the government united with the squires and the wealthy clan to form a civilian-official group to maintain the daily affairs of Wuzhou Mansion, and the Jinling front army controlled the two gates in the northwest, and Shen Yan would draw 10,000 troops from the remnants of the White Lotus Sect, leaving a little more than 30,000 to stay in Wuzhou Mansion and control the two gates in the southeast. The White Lotus Sect and the Jinling Front Army are not allowed to intervene in each other's jurisdictions, which is a basic bottom line, and at the same time, they must not be responsible for the government affairs of the Wuzhou Prefecture.

"Brother Shen, will the people in the government agree, will Luo Yuhui agree?" Gao Yong asked worriedly.
