Li Fengyun was clear about Wang An's thoughts, but he had no intention of explaining, and he wouldn't believe it if he explained it.

The purpose of this alliance going north is that only a very small number of people know the truth, and those who know the truth will not tell it. Since ancient times, the butt determines the head, the status determines the thought, the same thing, the position is different, the view is completely different, such as looking at the scenery, standing at the foot of the mountain and standing in the middle of the mountainside, the scenery is definitely different, to the top of the mountain overlook, the scenery is a change, and the person standing in the high place, if he tells the person standing in the low place what he sees, the person in the low place because he has not seen it with his own eyes, even if he can accept the fact that the scenery is different, but he cannot paint a real and clear picture in his mind, so it is basically the same chicken and duckIn that case, it's better not to talk about it.

With Wang An's status in Hebei, it is equivalent to standing at the foot of the mountain and looking at the scenery, his eyes are very limited, and he can't see the complex interest game hidden behind the political situation in the eastern capital, which can be seen from his words, if he has a wider vision and sees farther, he will not speculate about the purpose of Li Fengyun's entry into Hebei from the position of an ordinary person, and he will not worry that his interests will be damaged because of Li Fengyun's appearance, on the contrary, he will try his best to use Li Fengyun's power to serve the people of Hebei. For the Qinghe rebels and for their own maximum benefit.

"The purpose of coming is very simple, to take advantage of the fire to rob, take advantage of the fierce battle between you and the officials and troops on both sides of the Yongji Canal, and plunder the Yongji Canal when you have no time to take care of others."

Wang An asked bluntly, while Li Fengyun's answer was even more straightforward.

In fact, purely from a military point of view, Li Fengyun is really taking advantage of the fire to rob when he goes north at the moment, but now that the Yongji Canal has been frozen, the ships coming from the south to the north have long been difficult to find, and the plundering of the Yongji Canal is just a perfunctory remark, and the real targets of looting must be the Hebei people. The counties on the north bank of the Great River have been affected by successive disasters, not only the fields are barren and the warehouses are empty, but even the population is very sparse, and the victims are either dead or living by plundering in the ranks of the rebels, and it is impossible for Li Fengyun not to understand this situation, the current situation on the south bank of the Great River is actually stricter than that on the north bank, so it can be inferred that if Li Fengyun wants to achieve his goal, he must stride north, cross the Yongji Canal, and plunder the rich areas on the north bank of the Yongji Canal.

After Wang An got the answer he needed, his mood became heavier, he hesitated for a moment, and continued to ask, "Does the general know anything about the current situation in Hebei?" ”

Li Fengyun bowed his hand, "I would like to hear about it." ”

"Zuo Yiwei's general Duan Da is now in Qinghe County, and he is fighting with us in the area of Zongcheng." Wang An was frank and described in detail the predicament faced by the Qinghe Righteous Army, and finally said what he thought in his heart, "It is rumored that Duan Da has ordered that we must be defeated before the end of the year, and the Eastern Capital is very likely to increase troops in Hebei, and we are in danger of destruction. Is there still a chance to withdraw Qilu? ”

After all, Wang An still had the courage to propose "cooperation" to Li Fengyun.

Li Fengyun is the first traitor in Middle-earth today, "notorious", he led the Southwest Lu Righteous Army Alliance is also invincible, invincible, invincible, its strength must have passed the "Taoguang Yanghui" Qinghe Righteous Army, and from the morale of the alliance army that crossed the river to the north, even if they did not defeat the official army in Xuzhou, they also retreated, so it is really unwise for the Qinghe people to be the enemy with such a strong army, and under the current situation, the Qinghe Righteous Army has fallen into the dilemma of being attacked by the enemy, if you want to reverse the situation, you can only cooperate with Li Fengyun, But the premise is that Li Fengyun must be willing to cooperate with them, and for this, the Qinghe people will definitely have to pay a considerable price.

Li Fengyun laughed and asked, "Is this your personal meaning, or is it your Zhang Shuai's opinion?" ”

Of course, Li Fengyun wants to seek cooperation, but there is no foundation of trust between him and Hebei Haoshuai, the enemy is current, and it is indeed easy for the two sides to establish a cooperative relationship, but whether they can really cooperate and unanimously fight the enemy, it is difficult, so he called Li Anqi and Li Sixing to rush to Douzigang and ask Hebei Hongru Liu Xuan to help. With Liu Xuan's status and influence, it is enough to establish a certain amount of trust between the two sides, so that the cooperation between the two sides can be effective, and they can join forces to fight against the official army, otherwise Li Fengyun will not dare to fight lightly

However, Li Fengyun has not seen Liu Xuanqi so far. It stands to reason that if Liu Xuan is willing to help, he will definitely rush to Qinghe as soon as possible to explain the reason and purpose of Li Fengyun's reinforcements to the leaders of the Qinghe Righteous Army, so as to establish the most basic trust between the two sides, and Wang An, who appeared in front of Li Fengyun at this moment, would not be so nervous and uneasy, and he didn't even dare to boldly mention cooperation, so Li Fengyun guessed that Liu Xuan did not happily agree to this matter, and it may still be under consideration, after all, his identity and status are there, Even if he is "down" because of the political blows of the Eastern Capital, he has his own thoughts, has his own views on the general trend of the world and the political situation in the Eastern Capital, and has the dignity and discipline of Confucianism, even if he has to "get close" to the students who are thieves in order to survive and be with the thieves, but he must stick to his bottom line, and will never let his reputation be wasted, let alone let himself leave a reputation in history.

Li Fengyun was a little disappointed, but he could understand that he was indeed wishful thinking on this matter, with his young and prominent "thief" name, as Liu Xuan, who was a Confucian master in Middle-earth, how could he be willing to surrender his identity and help each other at the cost of his famous name? For the old Liu Xuan, the time he stayed in this world was numbered, he died as a Confucian warrior, and what remained in history was glory, and he died as a traitor, leaving only endless humiliation for future generations, so Liu Xuan's choice is not asked.

However, Li Fengyun still hopes for a miracle, in his memory, Hebei is about to usher in a rebellion, the bloody rain is about to sweep the land of Yanzhao, Gao Shida, Zhang Jincheng, Ge Qian and other Hebei heroes will die in the attack of the official army, Dou Jiande, Hao Xiaode, Liu Heimin and other Hebei heroes Although they killed a bloody road from the pile of dead people, they soon made a comeback, but in the continuous war, life was inevitable, and countless Hebei people died, and Liu Xuan, a Confucian warrior, was one of them, and died tragically in hunger and cold. Li Fengyun tried to save Liu Xuan's life and try to change Liu Xuan's fate, because he knew the trajectory of history, and he knew that as long as Liu Xuan insisted on living, as long as he suffered in pain for two or three years, he could usher in a new era and usher in his last glory.

Li Fengyun's wish is good, but reality is reality, Liu Xuan knows nothing about the future, of course he will not be so confused that he loses his mind, and he runs to Li Fengyun's side with a roar and is willing to fall and be an "old thief" who everyone will be punished. Without Liu Xuan's mediation, and because Li Fengyun's actions were too fast, there was no time to secretly "take care" from top to bottom, and the cooperation between Li Fengyun and the Qinghe Rebels was naturally full of risks.

Wang An hesitated, hesitated, and finally chose to tell the truth, "Qinghe Gongshang doesn't know that the general has crossed the river to the north. ”

Qinghe Gong is Zhang Jin claimed to be self-proclaimed, Gao Jibo Gao Shida self-proclaimed Donghai Gong, Pingyuan Hao Xiaode claimed to be Pingyuan Gong, Douzigang Liu Badao self-proclaimed Bohai Gong, and Bohai Haoshuai Sun Xuanya was even more amazing, calling himself "King of Qi", but whether it was "Wang" or "Gong", they were all titles, and they were still obscure, self-aware, and did not dare to declare their ambitions to usurp the country openly. As far as the Eastern Capital is concerned, as long as it is not called the "Son of Heaven", does not proclaim itself "emperor", and does not openly establish the country, it is considered an internal contradiction, and it is still within the tolerable range.

In comparison, Li Fengyun, as the first thief in Middle Earth, was the most low-key, neither called "king" nor "duke", so he proclaimed himself the official position of "chief administrator", and the goal of the rebellion he openly proclaimed was not to usurp the country, nor to oppose the emperor or the imperial court, but to "oppose heavy taxation and anti-conscription" for the Eastern Crusade, to put it bluntly, the government "forcibly seized and plundered", the common people could not survive, and the officials forced the people to rebel, and the reason for this rebellion can be described as low-key and can no longer be low-key.

This gave the Eastern Capital the greatest room for maneuver in politics, which definitely belonged to the internal contradictions of the people, and it was an object that could be appeased, and there was no need to kill them all, and the reason why Yang Lan, the king of Qi, and Wei Shi in Guanzhong dared to take the risk of secretly contacting Li Fengyun in the first place, this is also one of the reasons. After the Holy Lord returned to the Eastern Capital, although the edict ordered Li Fengyun to be killed, he never transferred the Jiangdu army to the battlefield of rebellion, which also had this consideration, after all, Li Fengyun's rebellious slogan could be used, and the local government was full of tricks when implementing the central government's decree, and all kinds of means were used to the extreme, and those who were corrupt and perverted the law and filled their own pockets abounded, so once they were used well, they could effectively attack the political opponents.

Li Fengyun's political low-profile in exchange for his military victories, and the strength of the alliance has reached such a point in a short period of time is closely related to this strategy. However, Li Fengyun's low-key does not mean that other rebels are also so low-key, and the "high profile" of other rebels will inevitably conflict with Li Fengyun's "low-key" strategy. For example, the marshals of Hebei are either "kings" or "dukes", and the marquis is even more "flying all over the sky", and the tents are all generals and generals, and Li Fengyun not only did not proclaim his own title, but even the official title deliberately avoided the generals and generals with prominent grades, but chose a rather "pragmatic and low-key" manager, so when the two sides cooperated, they formed a contrast just in the inconspicuous details of the title. Isn't this a blatant slap in the face and embarrassment?

Sure enough, when Wang An called Zhang Jin "Qinghe Gong", Li Fengyun's smile immediately had a hint of playfulness, and there was even a trace of ridicule in his eyes, and Wang An saw Li Fengyun's disdain, his expression suddenly became embarrassed, his face was ashamed, and he didn't know how to say the following words.
