Chapter 683: Traps Are Everywhere
readx;?>,!
Li Shanheng's refusal was expected by Feng Deyi, in fact, don't say that the army of King Qi is needed to drive the white thief out of the fortress within a month, take a step back and say that even if the white thief is trapped in the flying fox, the army of the king of Qi is also needed, after all, as long as the expeditionary force does not return from Liaodong, Youyan and even the entire northern Xinjiang are seriously insufficient, and there is no way to take into account the two fronts of suppression and rebellion at the same time, so the king of Qi has the capital to "ask for the price", and Feng Deyi can only "bargain" within the scope of his ability. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
"I have already explained it just now." Feng Deyi sighed, "If you want to contain or reverse the current north-south dilemma, the best way is to drive the white thief out of the fortress and kill people with a knife, on the contrary, even if the white thief is trapped in the flying fox, it will not be able to effectively improve the crisis in Yanbei and even northern Xinjiang, so the relationship between the north and the south will deteriorate rapidly, which is not conducive to the Holy Lord and the central center to launch the Third Eastern Crusade, nor is it conducive to the establishment of more advantages in the confrontation between the north and the south, and it is not conducive to the king going north to make contributions to the border." ”
The implication is that you must compromise and make concessions, otherwise as the situation continues to deteriorate, everyone's interests will be seriously damaged, and even the national throne and the great interests of Middle-earth will be difficult to preserve. The purpose of your King Qi going north to the border is to seek future benefits, not to fight with the Holy Lord to lose or even die together.
Li Shanheng exchanged glances with King Qi. At this moment, the king of Qi can not speak, the bargaining must be done by Li Shanheng, if the king of Qi himself "goes into battle shirtless", the two sides basically have no room for maneuver, which will inevitably affect the outcome of the negotiations.
"Jing Gong, it's not that we deliberately prevaricate, but that there are too many difficulties." Li Shanheng said with a sad face, "Among these difficulties, it is already extremely difficult to reach Huaihuang within a month and prepare for the attack, not to mention driving the white thief out of the fortress. Speaking of this, Li Shanheng bowed his hand to Feng Deyi, "If Gong Jing has a way to drive the white thief out of the fortress within a month, we will overcome all difficulties and follow the white thief out of the fortress at all costs." ”
Li Shanheng made a decisive concession, but this step was "letting" well, compromising on the surface, but in fact pressing step by step, and clearly told Feng Deyi that you are just "opening your mouth" in this matter, but it is we who work hard, once we don't do it well, we will still bear the responsibility, such a thankless thing, if you don't give us benefits, we will never agree.
Feng Deyi thought for a moment and said solemnly, "I can't guarantee that I will drive the white thief out of the fortress within a month, but I can guarantee that I will do my best to support him within the scope of his ability." ”
A smile suddenly appeared on King Qi's stern face, okay, Feng Deyi finally relented, with this promise, many realistic and urgent difficulties can be solved.
Li Shanheng also thanked him again and again, and immediately put forward the first request, "The king is short of manpower, so he has to do it himself, which can barely cope with the chaos and thieves in the north and south of the river, but it is not enough to confront the north and the north on the front line of the Great Wall." ”
Feng Deyi understood and nodded in agreement, this condition can be agreed. After the outbreak of the case of King Qi's "immorality", it was the cronies of King Qi who were the brunt of it, and the bureaucrats of the palace were almost "wiped out", although they were supplemented later, but the antagonism of King Qi was very serious, and he would rather not have a bureaucrat than be monitored by the Holy Lord's people day and night, so the position of the main official of the palace has been vacant. Now the King of Qi has finally seized the opportunity to make a request to the Holy Lord to arrange his own people in the position of the main officials of the palace.
"Is there a suitable candidate for the king?" Feng Deyi asked.
Li Shanheng immediately reported his name, the first was Wei Fuhei, Duke of Dangyang, and the second was Li Baiyao, Duke of Anping, the infantry captain of Yingyang Mansion in Surabaya, Lu County, and then reported to a few other Guanlong nobles, and finally said, "Except for these few people, the rest of the people can be arranged at will, and the king accepts it unconditionally." ”
This is the exchange, the main officials of the palace use the cronies of the king of Qi, and the rest do not ask for it, even if the holy lord sends him to monitor the king of Qi, the king of Qi also pinched his nose and recognized it.
When Yang Gong Wei Fusi was a native of Neishi in the past, he was on an equal footing with Feng Deyi, but he "fell" because of the case of King Qi's "loss of morality", and now it is reasonable to "re-emerge from the mountain". This is not very difficult, Feng Deyi is sure to convince the Holy Lord, but Li Baiyao is not good, it is too difficult. Li Baiyao was the "backbone" of the previous ******, the "sworn enemy" of the Holy Lord, and now letting him enter the Qi Palace, which means that he will be politically "lifted", although there is a certain positive effect, but from the perspective of the Holy Lord and his followers, it is emotionally difficult to accept, and the "political enemy" who has never died in the past has actually "turned over", no.
Of course, from Feng Deyi's standpoint, the same Hebei people, of course, are willing to take advantage of the "east wind" of the King of Qi to take advantage of the situation to pull Li Baiyao and favor him, but Li Baiyao's grudge with the Holy Lord is too deep, and as far as the current situation is concerned, the Holy Lord should not "forgive" Li Baiyao, and will not easily restore his political status.
"Will the candidate of An Pinggong be considered again?" Feng Deyi kindly reminded, "Once you lose a lot because of a small loss, the gain outweighs the loss." ”
King Qi shook his head categorically.
Li Shanheng was obviously prepared and said bluntly, "If you want to coerce the white thief to fight within a month, the wealthy families in northern Hebei must be promoted from it, and An Pinggong should be able to play some role." ”
Others may not understand this, but Feng Deyi knows that if Li Baiyao can contribute at this moment, it will not be a role, but a vital role.
Feng Deyi thought for a moment and took the initiative to suggest, "An Pinggong's identity is too sensitive, it is better to be cautious, so as not to anger the Holy Lord and bring disaster upon himself." From a certain point of view, it is better to find an excuse to transfer Anping Gong to the Huaihuang Frontier, which is called to crack down and suppress, but in fact to help the king, so that you can have the best of both worlds. ”
Feng Deyi didn't know why King Qi wanted to behave "aggressively" in the matter of Anping Gong, this was completely unnecessary, the political risk was too great, and the true identity of the white thief was an untouchable "taboo", and it was also Pei Shiju's "bottom line". You can be suspicious, but don't turn your suspicions into facts, otherwise it will be a situation of endless death, and King Qi has no need to coerce Pei Shiju at present, it is completely a prelude to death.
Maybe it's a test of yourself. Feng Deyi can only think so, after all, he is from Hebei, and there are common interests between the wealthy families in northern Hebei, if the white thief has the support of the wealthy families in northern Hebei, then Feng Deyi must have an understanding of the true identity of the white thief in today's situation, so that Feng Deyi and the king of Qi also have a connection of interests, so Feng Deyi not only wants to support the king of Qi to go north to the border, but also take advantage of this rare opportunity to help the king of Qi win the greatest benefits.
Traps are everywhere. Feng Deyi sighed, thinking that King Qi was young and easy to deal with, but he didn't expect that King Qi would not say a word from beginning to end, and kept letting Li Shanheng "charge into battle" and catch himself off guard. Adversity does temper people, and King Qi has grown up and has scheming.
King Qi and Li Shanheng accepted Feng Deyi's proposal, but then Li Shanheng "had to make inches", "when he arrived at the border fortress, he had to fight with the northern captives, and a certain brave man was more than enough, but the strategy was greatly insufficient, and he had no experience in foreign affairs. ”
Feng Deyi was wrong when he heard it, it was obvious that the King of Qi not only wanted civil officials, but also military generals, this was to "recruit troops and buy horses" to strengthen his strength, and he had touched the "bottom line" of the Holy Lord and the center, Feng Deyi did not dare to agree no matter what. In fact, this also crossed the scope of Feng Deyi's ability, the military and politics are two independent systems, Feng Deyi has the ability in the political circles and can help Wei Fusi make a comeback, but he has never held a post in the Wei Mansion and has no influence in the military circles. If it is said that Li Baiyao, an infantry captain of Yingyang Mansion, a middle- and low-level officer, he can still ask someone to think of a way, but if he wants to transfer a high-ranking officer of the Wei Mansion, it will be difficult for him.
"To tell you the truth, there is nothing that can be done about this matter, and there is no way to help the king." Feng Deyi refused, "No matter how long this hand is, it can't reach into the Wei Mansion." ”
Li Shanheng smiled slightly, "I heard that the person who is temporarily leading the army is now Zhao Cai, the general of the Right Waiting Guard. ”
Feng Deyi comprehended. Li Shanheng also knew that Feng Deyi's hand could not reach into the Wei Mansion, so he "stared" at Zhao Cai, the general of the Right Guard, who temporarily represented the affairs of the Ministry of War.
Zhao Cai is a native of Hexi, a northwest martial artist with "roots and Miao Hong", and the division commander of Duan Da left behind in Zhuo County, and the person who is currently ordered to carry out the murder plan with a knife, in addition to the central envoy Feng Deyi, is Duan Da, the local military and political governor of Youyan. Although Li Shanheng didn't say it explicitly, the meaning is very straightforward, you don't have the ability to solve it, you can ask Duan Da to come forward, and Duan Da will ask Zhao Cai, the right general of the Wei Guard, who is the "acting secretary of the military department", to transfer senior officers from the Wei Mansion to the northern Xinjiang to assist the king of Qi in the border.
Feng Deyi weighed it for a long time, and it was estimated that it would be very difficult for Duan Da to do so, but it had come to this point, and he couldn't refuse it at once, so he could only try it.
"I can make a promise to you to do my best, but as for whether it can be done, it is not up to me to decide." Feng Deyi said seriously, "Even if this matter is successful, it will take a while, so your going north to the Great Wall has nothing to do with the success of this matter." ”
Li Shanheng didn't speak, turned his eyes to look at King Qi, waiting for King Qi to make a decision. King Qi thought for a moment and bowed slightly.
"Goodness is just as Jing Gong said." Li Shanheng thanked him, "The person the king likes, Jing Gong should have a guess." ”
Feng Deyi hesitated for a moment, but still asked for verification, "Peng Cheng? ”
Peng Cheng stayed behind Dong Chun's military position in the Weifu is General Zuo Xiaowei, one of the twenty-four generals of the Weifu, with a high and powerful position, and to mobilize such a powerful minister, it is far from enough to rely on the advice of the Ministry of War, it still needs to be discussed and approved by the core level of the Weifu, and then discussed and decided by the core level of the central government, and finally implemented by the edict of the Holy Lord, the procedure is very complicated, and the interests of the military and political circles involved are also very large, and there is bound to be a fierce game behind it, such as whether the current supreme commander of the Northern Xinjiang Zhenjun Army wants to move his position? If Dong Chun is in charge of Youyan, is there still a need for Duan Da, the Zhuojun guard, to exist? In addition, the two big men of Qi Wang and Dong Chun have successively entered the Youyan region of northern Xinjiang to suppress the army, what kind of interpretation will the desert tooth tent and the northeast captives make? How will North-South relations unfold? What impact will this trend have on national defense and foreign policy grand strategies? It involves the whole body, so this matter is very difficult.
"Does Jing Gong feel that there is little hope?" Li Shanheng answered the question.
Feng Deyi smiled bitterly, and then said with a pun, "It's just such an opportunity, if you miss it, you won't have it again." ”
This sentence implies a warning, you have "blackmailed" the Holy Lord and the Center this time, but you have also planted a "curse", once you fail to achieve the expected goal, forcing the Holy Lord and the Center to give up the Eastern Crusade, the consequences will be serious, and the next Civil War is the "ultimate test", if you do your best to win, the political life may continue for a while, otherwise, you will be finished, completely finished.
"Indeed, there is only one chance." Li Shanheng replied, "So we have no choice, we must seize it, even if it is broken." ”
This is the threat, there is a meaning that the fish is dead and the net is broken, and it directly exerts heavy pressure on Feng Deyi.
Then Li Shanheng put forward some of his conditions, such as grain, grass, weapons, etc., which are very important, and take advantage of the opportunity in front of him to raise a large amount, so as not to be controlled by others at a critical moment, or even be drawn from the bottom of the kettle, then I really want to cry without tears.
Finally, when it comes to the key point, how to go north? Is the king of Qi going to the palace to meet the Holy Lord? How big was the authority of the King of Qi to go north to the Great Wall?
"When you enter Yanbei, of course, you will take Juyong Pass, so that you can not only get the replenishment of grain and grass weapons from Jicheng, but also rush to Huaihuang as soon as possible." Speaking of this, Feng Deyi looked at King Qi with a gloomy face, and sighed secretly, "It's just that since you pass through Linshuo Palace, you should go to meet the Holy Lord, and it will definitely not work if you don't see it, the Holy Lord is not happy, and the King will also give people a handle." ”
Li Shanheng didn't dare to answer without permission, his eyes were fixed on King Qi, and he saw that King Qi's eyes showed a look of fear. King Qi was scared, he could do whatever he wanted outside, but when he returned home and faced the Holy Lord, he was just a "fish and meat" on the chopping board, without any resistance, and was allowed to be slaughtered.
There was a long silence in the tent, and the atmosphere was dreary and depressing.
Feng Deyi and Li Shanheng couldn't help, so they could only watch King Qi helplessly "struggle" alone, and finally, King Qi looked up at the two of them, his eyes were firm, and he slowly shook his head.
Li Shanheng breathed a sigh of relief, what he was most worried about was that King Qi had the illusion of going to meet the Holy Lord, that is, looking for death, and dragged their followers into hell as well.
Feng Deyi sighed softly, "King, I must remind you that if you enter Yanbei through the Flying Fox, the consequences will be self-evident. ”
King Qi spoke, and his tone was resolute, "For Gu, this is the best consequence. ”
