Chapter 587: Seeing Through the Trick

Although Xu Feng didn't have a chance to inform Wang San, Jia Ling, and Sai Xishi, nor did he ask the guard to do so, the guard who was arranged by Xu Feng to prepare to cross the river understood the meaning from the gesture of the three fingers he secretly stretched out.

So in less than a pot of tea, Wang San, Jia Ling and Sai Xishi came one after another, blocking Shi Bin, who was about to leave, in the study and unable to leave. Knowing that he must have been tricked by Xu Feng, but now regretting it is useless, Shi Bin is like a deflated ball, and after slapping the table hard, he gasped and sat down. The anger that was full of anger seemed to be a complete evil spirit.

Seeing Shi Bin like this, Wang San knew that the guards had not deceived them, and Shi Bin was planning to quietly cross the river to negotiate with those resentful Yuan generals, but now this plan has come to naught.

After entering the house, Jia Ling asked knowingly with a smile: "What's wrong with our Lord Shi?" Has anyone upset you? Turning his head to look at Xu Feng, he said 'viciously': "Xu Feng, isn't it you?" Did you disobey the will of the adults and make the adults unhappy? ”

Unable to understand the meaning of Jia Ling's words, Xu Feng had no choice but to say honestly: "It is indeed disobedient to the adult, but there are some reasons for this. The adults wanted to cross the river and go to Zhending Mansion and Xinde Mansion to negotiate with those few Yuan generals who had opposing intentions. The humble position did not dare to let the adults easily get into danger, so they used the strategy of delaying the army to drag the adults, and took the opportunity to invite the two ladies and the king. If something happens to an adult, there is no redemption for his humble position. ”

"You said that your Excellency wants to go to Hebei Zhending and Xinde alone to negotiate with those Yuan generals?" Jia Ling said 'surprised'.

"That's true." Xu Feng said with a bitter face.

I thought that Jia Ling and Sai Xishi, the two tigresses, would change their complexion when they heard this, and immediately went crazy and accused Shi Bin of not knowing the severity. Unexpectedly, not only did the two not get angry, but they said in tears that Shi Bin was too selfish, didn't care about his family and brothers, and just wanted to be happy. Wang San also echoed on the side, begging Shi Bin to think more about everyone and not to do those crazy things.

Jia Ling and the three of them are now playing the sad card, which makes Shi Bin feel a lot of guilt in his heart, and it didn't take long for him to apologize to the three of them, and promised that he would not want to secretly go to Zhending and Xinde to negotiate with those Yuanren generals again. If you want to act, you must consult with a few people.

Due to the hurry, the guards did not tell Wang San why Shi Bin secretly crossed the river to meet the Yuan generals. In order to be sure, Jia Ling opened her mouth and asked, "Husband, why do you want to go to Hebei in person this time?" You're not such a frivolous person, and there must be some reason for that. ”

was said by Jia Ling, Shi Bin felt a lot more comfortable. Because Xu Feng ruined his good deeds, Shi Bin said mercilessly: "It's not that Xu Feng is ineffective, he hasn't completely persuaded those Yuan generals to submit to me. Those people said that everything had to be interviewed with me, otherwise they would never come to me. ”

Knowing that this was Shi Bin's personal vendetta in the communiqué and losing his temper, in order to make Shi Bin more comfortable and not hold a grudge against Xu Feng, Jia Ling and Sai Xishi had no choice but to reprimand Xu Feng for his ineffective handling and said that he should be fined for half a month. Xu Feng also knew that he had ruined Shi Bin's good deeds and didn't want to be marginalized, so he immediately admitted his mistake and expressed his willingness to accept the punishment.

Since Xu Feng's attitude of 'admitting mistakes' is so good, Shi Bin doesn't care about it, and says that he will not be punished

Yes, but in the future, you must do things in a dignified manner. After hearing this, Xu Feng could only smile bitterly and nodded, indicating that he understood.

"Big brother, according to what you just said, as long as those Yuanren generals don't talk to you face-to-face, they won't cooperate with us?"

"Yes, Brother Xian. They felt that Xu Feng was not sincere enough to talk. Shi Bin smiled.

"Sincerity? Big brother, what if you really go and are ambushed and caught by them? Yuan people don't keep their promises, so you definitely can't go. As for the negotiations, we have to find another way. ”

"Can't really go?" Shi Bin asked with the last glimmer of hope.

"I can't." Wang San, Jia Ling and Sai Xishi said in unison and very firmly.

This situation made Shi Bin have to compromise, saying that he would never negotiate with the river, but soon said: "I can't go to the river, but the generals of the Yuan people will definitely not be able to come over, and those guys mean that they won't negotiate if they don't see me, this is a dead knot." If you want us to die less, we have to untie this dead knot. ”

It must be admitted that Shi Bin was right, so several people thought of a way again.

Xu Feng, a person who 'made a big mistake', quickly came up with a solution under pressure: to confuse the real with the false. Send a person who is very similar to Shi Bin's height, body shape, and temperament to replace Shi Bin to negotiate with the Yuan generals. As for the negotiation conditions, Shi Bin and the others discussed it first, and then instructed the people who went to replace Shi Bin and Xu Feng.

This is a clever plan to confuse the real and the fake, but Shi Bin still doesn't want to let the people who go there be too much danger, especially Xu Feng, who is loyal to him, too much danger. So he said: "We must prepare ships along the Yellow River in Zhending and Xinde, agree on a signal to retreat, and be ready to take them back at any time." ”

"Thank you, sir." Xu Feng immediately thanked him after hearing this.

"You say that if they really agree to take refuge, what good will we give them?" Shi Bin asked.

"Give you some gold and silver." Sai Xi Shi said.

"I'm afraid there won't be enough gold and silver, and I'm afraid this military power won't be able to take them away." Jia Ling said.

I understand Jia Ling's meaning very well, the Yuan people regard the soldiers as their private property, and this kind of valuable property must not be taken away. Because without their men, they have no strength, and if they don't have strength, they have no right to speak, and they become lambs to be slaughtered.

"Then we still agree to let them lead their men, but forbid them to expand their army at will, and give them two rank promotions?" Wang San came up with a compromise solution.

"Reward wealth and official promotion?" Shi Bin lowered his head and muttered as he paced, "Don't cut down the military power or increase the military power, and promote the rank..." After thinking about it, Shi Bin agreed, "There is another issue that must be paid attention to, not allowing these generals to know each other. Otherwise, it is too easy to leak the message. Shi Bin said.

This was certain, so they agreed that the meeting with the six Yuan generals would be at six different times and places.

Due to the full preparation and no loopholes, the key is that a few resentful Yuanren generals had never seen Shi Bin at all, and they really wanted to change banners, so the negotiations were quickly successful.

Not only did the six of them agree to help Shi Bin seize Zhending and Xinde, but they also expressed their willingness to help Shi Bin rebel against more Yuan generals. The temptation is quite big, and the fake Shi Bin can't bear it, but Xu Feng still keeps calm. The more people, the greater the power, but at the same time, it also means that the easier it is to leak the news, the greater the risk, so Xu Feng 'persuaded'

The fake Shi Bin rejected the kindness.

At the end of each meeting, the fake Shi Bin would take out a confessional document from his sleeve and ask the general of the Yuan people to sign it.

As soon as they heard that they were going to sign, all six of them were anxious, and one of them was grumpy and scolded on the spot.

And Xu Feng said every time: "Ladies and gentlemen, my family adults have traveled thousands of miles to meet you in person, shouldn't you sign a letter to show your sincerity?" Besides, without this guarantee, we cannot believe that you will be true to your word. ”

People die for money, birds die for food, as long as they help Shi Bin to open the city gate at that time, he can have the benefits of a large amount of wealth and official promotion, and the military power will not be cut, and the six people finally signed it. It's just that he repeatedly told 'Shi Bin' to plan and then act, not to defeat and harm them.

No one wanted to defeat the battle, so the fake Shi Bin naturally agreed to it all. After the matter was done, Xu Feng and his gang didn't dare to stay a little longer, so they quickly went to the ferry to cross the river by boat.

Things went much smoother than expected, which made Shi Bin feel both happy and uneasy. I'm glad that things are done so quickly, and I'm worried that there will be any intrigues and tricks among the Yuan people. After all, Ali Hague and Arakhan are also wise and brave generals, and they may not have expected their tricks.

However, Shi Bin is not in a hurry, after all, there is still a year of preparation time, if something is wrong, he can adjust it in time. What we need to do now is to prepare for the war and communicate with Zhao Kui and Lu Wende.

Shi Bin's feelings, Wang San, Jia Ling and Sai Xishi all had it, so it didn't take long for them to come to him to discuss.

"Husband, don't you feel that this time things are going too well?" Jia Ling asked.

"It was very smooth. But they have all signed this official document, what else is there to be afraid of? Unless they are not afraid of death or implicating family and friends. Shi Bin said.

"Husband, what if this is what Ali Hague and Arahan agreed? Do you want them to do whatever it takes to gain your trust? Said Seish.

Gain the trust of your opponents at all costs? Shi Bin asked himself if he was able to get his subordinates to carry out such an order. Since they have it, Ali Hague and Arakhan may not have it. Thinking of this, Shi Bin broke out in a cold sweat.

"Then quickly send someone to keep an eye on the few Yuanren generals who signed an agreement with me, and we must not capsize in the gutter." Shi Bin said.

"Yes. My lord, what if I find out that they are fake refuge? Xu Feng asked.

"Fake refuge?" Shi Bin opened his mouth and said, "It doesn't seem appropriate to kill directly, Wang San, what should you do if you talk about it?" ”

"Even if it's a fake refuge, let's take advantage of it." Wang San said: "If any of them pretend to take refuge, they will spread rumors, saying that they really take refuge in us." Let those who really take refuge in us fan the flames on the side, and let the Yuan people disintegrate themselves. ”

The situation proved that Jia Ling's worries were right, four of the six generals who claimed to be going to join the Song Dynasty were deliberately sent by Ali Hague and Arakhan, and only two were sincere in their refuge. The only thing that made Shi Bin happy was that these two people were in the city, one each for Zhending and Xinde.

So Shi Bin sent people to fan the flames according to Wang San's suggestion, saying that the four Yuan generals who had taken refuge were anti-minded, and pushed them to the forefront and became the target of public criticism. If just some rumors are not enough to believe, who calls that there are still official documents signed and fingerprinted? This made Ali Hague and Arakhan unable to protect these four even if they had the ability to reach the sky, and finally had to demote them to pawns to eliminate everyone's dissatisfaction.
