Part 2 The Sword Drifts (32) Situation

Since Bai Qi came to Jiezhou, he naturally thought that Bai Yunfan would ask this question, if he really prevaricated with some kind of bullshit such as immortals, Bai Qi couldn't do it, and it was estimated that Bai Yunfan wouldn't believe it, after all, he still had a certain understanding of Bai Qi. Fortunately, with the appearance of Izumoko, he happened to be used as a shield by Bai Qi.

Bai Qi pretended to smile mysteriously, and looked at Bai Yunfan but didn't say anything. Bai Yunfan was in a hurry, and raised his hand to fight, just at this time, Bingyan came in with wine and food, and when she saw Bai Yunfan like this, she smiled and said, "Ouch! What's wrong with this? ”

Bai Yunfan smiled: "This bad boy just refuses to explain the problem honestly." ”

"Can't you just say it? Hands-on, not a little bit like a big brother. Bingyan scolded with a smile. Seeing Bingyan protecting Bai Qi, Bai Yunfan smiled and said, "Hehe, I'm just scaring him, just by virtue of his ability, how can I be an opponent as a brother." ”

After the wine and food were arranged, and the brothers made it, Bai Qi glanced at Bai Yunfan with conversion, and then said with a smile: "Does the eldest brother know Izumoko?" ”

"I know, I've heard about it before, and I've heard that this person is terrible." Bai Yunfan gave Bai Qiman a glass of wine, and replied.

Bai Qi snickered in his heart, it's good if you know, and the following words are easy to make up.

"Izumoko is my master." Bai Qi drank the wine in the cup quickly, and then suddenly this sentence came out.

"What? What the? You repeat. Bai Yunfan was about to drink it with a wine glass, but he was stunned by Bai Qi's words, and hurriedly asked Bai Qi.

"Izumoko is my master, and he taught me all my skills." Bai Yunfan understood what Bai Qi said this time.

"Good boy! I said, why are you so capable, and I feel that this Izumo is your master. Let's talk about it. ”

"It's a long story..... Bai Qi smiled, and then began to make up the story. The story Bai Yunfan heard was probably like this, when Bai Qi was six years old, he came back from school one day and met an old man at the back door of his home, lying at the door and shouting all the time to drink. Xiao Baiqi saw that he was pitiful, so he ran to the wine cellar at home and stole a jar of wine for Lao Dao. Lao Dao drank wine and showed a few kung fu in front of Bai Qi, Bai Qi's childish temperament, how could he stand this temptation, so he became a lay disciple of Izumoko.

If Bai Qi wants to put this in his previous life, he will definitely be despised by the audience collectively stretching out his middle finger, which is a pirated version of the Legend of Sword and Fairy. Fortunately, this is in a different time and space, and it is impossible for Bai Yunfan to play the game of The Legend of Sword and Fairy, basically even if he is confused by Bai Qi. Bai Yunfan was surprised again and again when he heard it, and praised Bai Qi's good luck.

"Old Seven, although you can't learn our Bai family's kung fu, but God is still not thin on you, so you follow the master of Izumoko, God has eyes. Now that you have the ability to dominate the world, my brother is happy for you. Bai Yunfan said with a little emotion. Bai Qi was born in the Bai family, in fact, it can be said to be a kind of misfortune, Bai Yunfan has seen too many intrigues in the big family, take himself as an example, the second child in the family, Bai Yunshan, is always thinking about the position of the head of the Bai family, as well as the contradictions between the prime minister's uncle behind Baiyun Mountain and the Bai family, and it is also involved in the struggle of the heirs within the Bai family, and even Bai Qi is not less angry.

The current Bai Qi is no longer the Bai Qi of the past, Bai Yunfan can feel a kind of self-confidence from Bai Qi's bearing, a kind of self-confidence that is proud of the world. Bai Qi can have today, and Bai Yunfan is also sincerely happy for Bai Qi.

Bai Qi felt his sincerity and relief from Bai Yunfan's words, and his heart couldn't help but be moved. Bai Qi stood up and raised his glass and said, "Don't mention the past, come!" Drink. ”

After the two raised their glasses and drank them, they talked to each other about some trivial matters after separation, and Bai Yunfan naturally brought the topic to the current situation in Jiezhou. In the depths of his heart, Bai Yunfan has always regarded Bai Qi as a knowledgeable person, so he also wants to hear what Bai Qi has to say.

After Bai Qi heard about Bai Yunfan's book, he pondered for a while before asking, "Big brother, how is the grain production in the area of Jiezhou this autumn?" ”

Bai Yunfan was stunned by this question, but he replied quickly: "In the past two years, the wind and rain have been smooth, and the area of Jiezhou has been ripe continuously. Then Bai Yunfan asked rhetorically, "Why did you think of asking this." ”

Bai Qi made a gesture of calm and continued to ask: "Ripe for two consecutive years, then the price of grain must have fallen very much?" ”

"Oh, it's strange to say, this year's grain is much more expensive than last year...... Bai Yunfan suddenly felt that something was wrong, and stared at Bai Qi fiercely. Bai Qi smiled and nodded.

"What news did you get?" Bai Yunfan's expression became serious all of a sudden, it was a matter of military affairs, but it was not allowed to be sloppy.

Bai Qi pointed to the southwest and said, "They have come together with the Huns, and the news is absolutely reliable." ”

Of course, Bai Yunfan believed that Bai Qi did not lie to him, combined with the strange changes in grain prices, there must be something big going on in the Central Plains. Since the beginning of this year, the price of grain has been high, indicating that some people have been secretly buying, and after contacting themselves to Jiezhou, they found that there were many more businessmen who trafficked iron yarn, cotton yarn and other materials in this area, and Bai Yunfan's mood suddenly became heavy.

Once the Xiongnu and Zhang Chu joined forces and wanted to enter the Central Plains, Jiezhou was the first line of defense. Thinking of this, Bai Yunfan's cold sweat came down, the current Jiezhou armament is relaxed, the city wall is old, once there is a war, what will he do to fight against Zhang Chu and the Huns who are like wolves and tigers. Thinking that he had no clue about his comprehensive plan to rectify the military affairs of Jiezhou, Bai Yunfan was even more anxious.

"Seventh, what do you think I should do? I can't wait to lead the troops to slaughter Li Dawei's bastard right now, everything is the same, he cooperates. If you really push me into a hurry, I... Hum! The corners of Bai Yunfan's mouth showed a cruel smile, and at this time, Bai Yunfan was like a heavy soldier with a heavy army in his hand, killing and deciding a party.

"This matter must not be rushed, and we must come up with a perfect plan before we can do it." Of course, Bai Qi had to persuade Bai Yunfan to calm down.

"So what do you think I'm going to do next?" Bai Yunfan: This will really hope to get a way from Bai Qi.

Bai Qi still didn't answer positively when he heard this, but asked rhetorically: "Big brother, according to you, why is Li Dawei, the prefect of Jiezhou, against you?" ”

Bai Yunfan listened to it and said angrily: "It's not Su Yuncheng, an old bastard, who has been working against his father, Li Dawei is his protΓ©gΓ©, of course, he doesn't shy away from cooperating with me." ”

"Oh? Is it that simple? Bai Qi asked with a sneer.

"And what else do you say?" Bai Yunfan was also a little confused, and he didn't know what Bai Qi wanted to explain.

"How many Great Qi troops are still under the control of the Bai family now?" Bai Qi asked coldly again.

"Eighty percent of Daqi's army has always been under the control of my father, so ..... at present." When Bai Yunfan said this, he suddenly felt that things were very bad, and he thought about it carefully, now the army of Daqi, except for the 30,000 city guards in the capital, really has no other army under Bai Qiwei's hands. Don't......? Bai Yunfan didn't dare to continue thinking about it, so he had to ask Bai Qidao again:

"You mean the problem lies with the lord?" Bai Yunfan finally said what he didn't want to say in his heart.

"Humph! We, the lord of the country, have always been masters of playing balance. first used Su Yuncheng to contain the Bai family, and then continued to arrange his father's old ministry to a position without military power in the name of promotion, which is called Mingsheng and Secret Descent. In the final analysis, the Bai family and the Su family are two chess pieces in the hands of the lord of the country, and the one who is really trusted by the lord of the country is still the always low-key Taiwei Ye Chaifeng, right? ”

Bai Qi snorted coldly and said what was in his heart. Don't look at Bai Qi, he has never shown much dew, but Bai Qi has not paid much attention to what has happened in the Bai family over the years. Let's take Bai Yunfan as an example, he has only been working in the Lianghe camp near the capital for a few days? was transferred to Jiezhou. At present, the army near Duliang is basically the person who holds the military power of Taiwei Ye Chaifeng, and it is obvious that the lord of the country, Xue Yiran, has been secretly and silently devouring the military power of the Bai family.

There is still one point that Bai Qi didn't say, even if it was Su Yuncheng, the prime minister who had always been keen on fighting with Bai Qiwei, those local officials who he thought were his own people, how many of them could listen to him at a critical moment? Don't look at him calling for wind and rain now, if something really happens, he can't move a single soldier of this Great Qi Country.

Things were peeled off little by little, and Bai Yunfan felt what kind of position the Bai family was actually in at present, although he was called the Jiezhou Army, how much could he really control the 50,000 troops in Jiezhou? The answer is yes, at least not a few officers can fall to their side at a critical moment.

"Humph! Half of this big Qi world is beaten down by the Bai family, the lord of the country is really going to move his crooked thoughts, our Bai family is not dough, others can knead it as much as they want, it's not so easy. Bai Yunfan's tone was cold.

"Huh! Big brother, don't worry, things haven't been so bad that far. At present, the threat of Zhang Chu's Xiongnu is in front of him, and the lord of the country must still use the Bai family. In my opinion, the top priority is to first seize the 50,000 troops in Jiezhou. Bai Qi hurriedly asked Bai Yunfan to calm down.

"How?" This is also a headache for Bai Yunfan.

"How?" Bai Qi asked himself first, and then quickly replied: "Disarmament!" ”

"Disarmament?" Bai Yunfan was shocked when he heard this, but he didn't expect Bai Qi to say this.

"That's right! Disarmament. Didn't the lord of the country want too many troops to be controlled by the Bai family? I see, eldest brother, you will go to the road, and say that when it is peaceful today, Jiezhou does not need so many garrisons, and hopes to reduce the original 50,000 troops to 30,000. Hehe, no matter how you say that the eldest brother is still the highest military commander in Jiezhou, the fewer troops under your control, the happier the lord of the country, and as soon as he is happy, he may agree. When he was happy and thought about this question calmly, Xie Zhou's military horses were already completely controlled by the eldest brother. A smile flashed across Bai Qi's face, and Bai Yunfan could see that it was a cold mockery.
