Qinzhou was not a wealthy place, and before Yang Yi conquered Qianzhou, Qinzhou was actually a chicken rib, not only barren in the mountains, but also a place of enemies on all sides. {with}{dream} щ{suimеng][lā}

However, when Yang Yi took Qianzhou and Li Cen conquered Zhuzhou, the situation of the three southern states changed greatly, and Qinzhou, the land of chicken ribs, became a strategic place for soldiers to fight for in an instant.

For Yang Yi's forces, although Shuzhong has now opened up a road through Daque Mountain, after all, the road is far away, and it will not be able to respond in time in case of emergencies. At the same time, Qianzhou as an outpost in Shuzhong, but also become a time bomb outside the lonely mountain, which may be attacked by the enemy at any time, if Qinzhou can be pocketed, Qin and Qianzhou can rely on each other and be unbreakable.

For Li Cen, the battle of the south was initiated by the Linjiang army, and their strategic goal itself was the most fertile Qianzhou Mansion, but Yang Yijie took the lead, and the surprise attack picked up a big bargain, which made Li Cen very unhappy, and it seemed that taking Qinzhou in the north would make him feel better.

However, there is another important question, Yang Yi and Li Cen both know it but do not speak. The place of Qinzhou Mansion seems to be just a simple territorial competition at present, but once Shuzhong and Jiangnan tear their faces one day in the future, it will directly determine who will occupy the advantageous situation on both sides.

Yang Yi took Qinzhou, and the Qianzhou Mansion could be in a horn trend, the south could retreat into the Daque Mountain, and the north could enter the Tongzhou Mansion to enter the sword and rush the pass, and the strategic pattern would be expanded exponentially. And if Li Cen gets Zhuzhou and Qinzhou, then Qianzhou Mansion will become a fat meat in his mouth, and he can eat it whenever he wants!

Yang Yi understands this, and Li Cen also understands this, so both sides have shown their own magic on the issue of Qinzhou, and no one is willing to use force, but neither is willing to back down half a step.

Liu An, the assassin of Qinzhou, became an awkward figure at this time, on the one hand, he wanted to fight for his greatest interests in the gap between Yang Yi and Li Cen, and on the other hand, he really didn't dare to offend anyone.

Through the news sent back by Zhu Zhengyan, Liu An's meaning was very clear, Yang Yi had to negotiate with Li Cen before he would open the city and surrender.

"Qinzhou must be taken down, there is no doubt about it, but how to take it is a big problem." Yang Yi frowned.

"A mere Liu An should also sell his rights and interests in front of us, give me half a month, and beg for mercy." Shamanagu sneered with some disdain.

Yang Yi swallowed the melon seeds, glanced at Shama Naigu, and said, "I'll give you half a month, but Li Cen won't give me time." ”

Shamanaigu pursed his lips and said, "It's really not okay, even take Li Cen and beat him up." ”

Yang Yi spit out a melon seed shell from his mouth and said, "It's swollen, you want to beat anyone when you see it, and you're not afraid of knocking with you." ”

Shama Naigu snorted coldly and didn't speak, of course he knew that it was absolutely unrealistic to start a war with Li Cen, at least in terms of the current strength of Shuzhong, he was not absolutely sure that he could defeat Li Cen, and now the situation in Daguang is complicated, a war is definitely not to be fought just yet, once Shuzhong and Jiangnan start a war, no matter who wins or loses, it will not be the final beneficiary, such as Yang Jie in the capital, he must have dreamed and will wake up with a smile.

Yang Yi said again: "We are now in alliance with Li Cen Gang for a short time, unless we win the battle and can completely eliminate the other party in a short period of time, no one is willing to tear their faces first, once the reputation of treachery is carried on their backs, it will be very troublesome." ”

Shama Naigu moved his buttocks a little irritably, and said, "Then what should I do, I can't beat it, I can't let it, can a living person suffocate urine?" ”

Yang Yi stood up, patted the dust on his hands, and said with a smile: "At the moment, there is only one way for us to successfully take Qinzhou. ”

"By what way?"

"Negotiate!"

The next day, the envoy of the Linjiang army came to Qianzhou Mansion and proposed that Li Cen, Yang Yi and Liu An hold a tripartite meeting outside a small city called Huicheng at the junction of the triangle of Qianzhou, Qinzhou and Zhuzhou.

Li Cen agreed that the three parties would each lead 3,000 soldiers, and they would not be allowed to enter within ten miles of the city, and the generals who would bring them into the city should not escort more than 100 people.

After studying Li Cen's plan in detail, Yang Yi felt that there was no problem and agreed to the meeting.

Of course, Li Cen and Yang Yi will not break the purpose of the Huicheng talks to decide the ownership of Qinzhou, and Xuancheng is the first official alliance between Shuzhong and Jiangnan, which can be used to deter the princes of the Central Plains who are eyeing each other, as for why Liu An, the assassin of Qinzhou, is actually just to show the generosity of the two, everyone knows that Liu An is just going to be a foil.

The date of the alliance was set in a hurry, and on the third day of informing Yang Yi, the three parties had already moved closer to Huicheng.

Yang Yiming came up very freely on his face, in fact, he had already made full preparations secretly, the three thousand soldiers led by him were the elite of the mountaintop army, and the guards who entered Huicheng with Yang Yi were the generals led by Tie Niu and the dark messengers and some of the selected generals in the army, on the other hand, Shama Naigu was ready to attack in the Qianzhou military camp a hundred miles away from Huicheng, as long as the situation was slightly wrong, he would definitely be able to quickly rush to the aid of Huicheng within three hours.

Of course, Li Cen, the Marquis of Nanguo, will not be careless, and at the border of Zhuzhou behind him, more than 10,000 elite Linjiang troops are waiting for him, and they can be interspersed at any time to meet Li Cen.

The two of them have their own ghosts, but Liu An, the assassin of Qinzhou who has the friendship of the landlord, seems to be much more trembling, and only brought more than a thousand Qinzhou soldiers, but Liu An is obviously easier than Yang Yi and Li Cen, he clearly understands that he came this time to listen to how the King of Shu and the Marquis of Nanguo divided Qinzhou, no matter how the two of them are determined in the end, as long as they don't help each other, naturally no one will embarrass themselves.

Liu An held this meeting very grandly, Yang Yi and Li Cen arrived in Huicheng almost at the same time, and the two didn't have time to talk, and suddenly there was a burst of firecrackers.

Liu An ordered people to build a simple altar, which was full of pigs, sheep and fruits and other sacrifices, and Yang Yi and Li Cen went to the altar to worship the gods under the guidance of Liu An, in order to show the sincerity of the alliance.

Li Cen took the initiative to cooperate with Liu An's arrangement with a smile on his face, and Yang Yi naturally did not show the slightest displeasure, and the two also humbled each other when they were incense.

After all the ceremonies, Liu An led Li Cen and Yang Yi into a very large military tent.

This kind of alliance negotiation between the two armies before the formation is generally taboo to be carried out in the house, because there can always be a hidden crisis under the house, if it is not for the cold weather, there may not even be a military tent, directly build a high platform outside, so that everyone can talk clearly.
