Chapter 315: The Storm Rises Again
"Commander, something is wrong, Li Hanzhi led an army of 20,000 to attack us, saying that he was going to... Say yes ... β
Seeing Fu Cunxian with a serious face, the words that the person who came to say were swallowed back at once.
"What do you want? Crusade against traitors? Fu Cunxian sneered.
"This..." The visitor was stunned, not knowing whether he should tell the truth.
"You don't have to guess to know that he won't give up." Regarding Li Hanzhi's attack, Fu Cunxian didn't have much worry on his face, but asked, "Did Wang Chongying also send troops?" β
"Commander, now that Li Hanzhi's capital is calling, there are more than 3,000 of us, how can we be Li Hanzhi's opponent. Now we have to find a way to get through it, or let's go to Guanzhong. β
"Didn't you hear me? I asked Wang Chongying if he had sent troops. β
"Troops have been dispatched, and they are claimed to be 50,000 troops."
"Fifty thousand troops?" Fu Cunxian couldn't help but sneer, "It is estimated that there are only twenty or thirty thousand, and there are fifty thousand troops." β
"Commander, why aren't you in a hurry at all? Li Hanzhi called. Someone next to him was puzzled.
"I'm afraid he won't send troops."
Thinking of this, Fu Cunxian couldn't help but admire the emperor who was far away in Chang'an.
At first, he was puzzled why he had defected to the imperial court and was also appointed as the commander of the left wing of the Zuo Yulin Army, but he received an order to temporarily station in Anyi County.
Li Hanzhi attacked, and he was not surprised.
Li Hanzhi is not a generous person, although he is taking refuge in the imperial court this time, it can be regarded as betraying Li Hanzhi, and it is strange that the other party can give up.
He didn't believe that the imperial court couldn't guess this possibility, but the imperial court still stationed him in Anyi.
It wasn't until he confirmed the news that Wang Chongying also sent troops that he knew what the imperial court wanted to do.
In the river!
Before the current emperor ascended the throne, Li Keyong and Wang Chongrong led an army to attack Chang'an, although the imperial court did not crusade against Li Keyong after the defeat, but it does not mean that the imperial court has forgotten about it.
From the time he met with the saint before, he knew that this emperor was very ambitious, and it was impossible for such a person not to react to Li Keyong's previous actions at all, and Li Keyong still appointed the envoy of Heyang Jiedu on his own.
However, with the strength of the imperial court, if you want to crusade against Li Keyong, there is a great chance of failure, and there is a lack of springboard.
And the river is a good springboard.
In addition to this reason, the two pools of salt in the river are also a big reason.
You must know that the two pools of salt profit have an income of more than one million yuan a year.
This money alone is more than the annual tax revenue of many feudal towns, which is why Wang Chongrong was able to feed tens of thousands of troops before.
As far as Fu Cunshen knows, the two pools of salt are now jointly owned by the imperial court and Wang Ke in the river, and the imperial court will not put this place that can increase the revenue of the treasury.
However, the current strength of the imperial court is not strong enough to directly attack Hezhong, and Li Keyong will not sit idly by.
Therefore, the imperial court needs a reason, a reason for the imperial army to enter the river in a bright light.
If Wang Ke took the initiative to ask the imperial army to be stationed in the river, this reason would naturally be very sufficient.
Since he guessed the intentions of the imperial court, Fu Cunxian naturally would not ignore it, since he defected to the imperial court, he has not made any military achievements, and this is his chance to perform.
γγγγγγ
Ha Chung Fu.
As Fu Cunxian expected, at this time, Wang Ke was restless in the palace in the middle of the river, and was thinking about how to deal with the current crisis.
And at this time, the people below came to report that Fu Cunzhen was coming.
Hearing that it was Fu Cunxian, Wang Ke didn't think that the other party only had 3,000 troops, but thought that the other party was the commander of the forbidden army and a person from the imperial court.
"Quick, let Commander Fu in!"
At this time, Wang Ke was also a little sick and rushed to the doctor, and in order to show respect, he even went out to greet him in person. As soon as he walked into the courtyard, he saw a heroic young general under the leadership of his subordinates.
He hadn't seen Fu Cunxian, but when he saw Fu Cunxian for the first time, he saw that the other party was definitely a good general, but unfortunately he took refuge in the imperial court.
"See the young marshal!"
Seeing a man in a fancy dress who was slightly older than himself coming towards him, Fu Cunxian was still wondering who this was at first, but the person next to him hurriedly stopped and saluted.
Young marshal? There is only Wang Ke.
Unlike others who like to be called Da Shuai or Festival Shuai, Wang Ke likes to be called a young marshal, indicating that he is Wang Chongrong's son.
"Zuo Yulin Army's left wing commander Fu Cunxian, I have seen the young marshal!"
He didn't expect Wang Ke to take the initiative to come out, and before the other party approached, he clasped his fists and saluted to show respect.
"Commander Fu is really dignified and heroic." Wang Ke laughed and swept away his previous sadness.

"The young marshal praised it falsely, Fu is just an ordinary person, and he can't be compared with the young marshal."
"Alright, let's go in and talk."
Immediately, Fu Cunxian followed Wang Ke to the front hall of the Marshal's Mansion, Wang Ke sat on the top, Fu sat on the left, and a scribe on the right, thinking that it was Wang Ke's staff or strategist.
"I don't know what is the important matter for Commander Fu to suddenly come to the river?" Wang Ke asked quietly.
"There is indeed something important, to be precise, it is related to whether the young marshal can continue to serve as the envoy of the river festival." Fu Cunxian arched his hand and said in a loud voice.
"Bold, you are just a commander, how dare you be disrespectful to the young marshal?" A general next to Wang Ke scolded.
Wang Ke's face was a little pale, and he slowly raised his hand, and then looked at Fu Cunxian curiously, "What does Commander Fu mean by this?" β
"I wonder if the young marshal knows that Li Hanzhi has led an army of 20,000 to attack the river?" Fu Cun asked.
"Attack on the river? Not necessarily! The scribe sitting opposite Fu Cunxian glanced at him coldly and said, "If Li Hanzhi comes to attack Fu Commander, it may be more credible." β
Fu Cunxian raised his head and glanced at the person opposite, showing a smile, "Fu Mou does have an enmity with Li Hanzhi, but Fu Mou only has 3,000 people under his command, Li Hanzhi only needs 10,000 troops to eliminate Fu Mou's people, why do you need to come with 20,000 troops."
And at the same time that Li Hanzhi sent troops, Wang Chongying also sent troops, also known as 50,000. Could it be that Wang Chongying is also here to deal with Fu? β
As soon as Fu Cunxian's words came out, Wang Ke, who was still smiling at the beginning and watching Fu Cunxian arguing with his staff, instantly became gloomy.
Fu Cunxian can be said to have talked about his sore feet, if Li Hanzhi really dealt with Fu Cunxian, why did he need to send 20,000 troops. Moreover, Li Hanzhi and Wang Chongying sent troops one after the other, and it is no coincidence that anyone looks at it.
There is no such coincidence in the world.
The scribe on the opposite side also looked a little flustered, and quibbled, "Commander Fu is just trying to confuse the public, and wants the young marshal to help you block Li Hanzhi." β
Fu Cunxian smiled faintly, "Young marshal, to put it mildly, as long as Fu is willing, he can retreat to Guanzhong with these three thousand men." Fu is also the commander of the forbidden army now, and he has no foundation, so there is nothing to be reluctant about.
But the young marshal is different, in the face of the attack of these two armies, it is a little difficult to say whether the young marshal can keep the foundation of the old marshal. β
Hearing this, Wang Ke's face became more and more ugly, and he reluctantly showed a smile, "If Commander Fu is here to fall into the well, please forgive Wang for not being able to entertain Commander Fu." β
Fu Cunxian raised his eyebrows and shook his head, "The young marshal thinks too much, Fu is here to help the young marshal tide over the difficulties." β
"Weathering the storm? Could it be that the three thousand soldiers and horses commanded by the talisman were commanded? Wang Ke's words were a little contemptuous.
"Naturally not, Fu Mou is a little person, and he can't even splash on the battlefield."
"How can Commander Fu help the young marshal tide over this difficult time? Could it be that the commander of Cheng Fu could still make Wang Chongying and Li Hanzhi retreat? β
Fu Cunxian smiled, "Fu naturally doesn't have this ability, but the imperial court does." β
Hearing the word 'imperial court', Wang Ke's heart trembled, obviously he had thought about it before, but he was worried about attracting wolves into the room, so he never mentioned this.
"Will the imperial court send troops? Isn't the imperial court afraid that Li Keyong will also send troops? The scribe sneered.
"How do you know the result if you don't try, at present, the only one who can help the young marshal is the imperial court.
The young marshal may be worried about luring the wolf into the house, but has the young marshal ever thought that if there is no help from the imperial court this time, does the young marshal think that with the army in his hand, he can hold the Hezhong Mansion under the attack of Wang Chongying and Li Hanzhi?
Lure the wolf into the room, at least this 'room' must have it, without the 'room', is there any difference between luring the wolf or not? If the young marshal is willing to give up this section to make the position, it should be that Fu Mou didn't say it, but the young marshal can think about how Wang Chongying will deal with the young marshal after he takes Hezhong.
Courtesy?
Brothers will fight each other for family property, not to mention that the young marshal and Wang Chongying are just uncles and nephews. β
After hearing this, Wang Ke fell into deep thought.
If he didn't ask the court for help, he would have to lose it all; If you ask the court for help, you may be able to lure the wolf into the house.
This also made him very entangled.
