In the anxious waiting of Li Zixiong, Han Shige, Yang Gongdao and others, Li Mengwei finally returned.

"Bad luck?" Li Zixiong saw Li Mengwei's depressed expression, and suddenly felt ominous, and asked eagerly.

Li Mengwei nodded, and immediately told him in detail about the trip. Because Murong Zhengze, the deputy town of Gubeikou, was upright, adhered to his principles, and refused to open the gate, which led to the serious complication of simple matters, and finally forced the twelve ladies of the Cui family to reveal Li Fengyun's true identity and move out of Pei Shiju, which made Murong Zhengze take a step forward and be a little flexible, as long as everything is normal in Panlong Fort and will not affect the safety of the Great Wall of Gubeikou, then there is a restriction to open the gate to ensure the normal progress of the border market.

In other words, Murong Zhengze's accommodation was only limited to the border city of Huiyi, Gubeikou would not have any contact with Panlong Fort, and the Great Wall garrison would not have anything to do with the alliance army led by Er Li, so Murong Zhengze adhered to his principles and ensured the vital interests of himself, the border towns and the two prefectures and the Zhenshu army, no matter how fierce the storm on the Anzhou side was, it would not have the slightest impact on their interests.

At the same time, the wealthy families of northern Hebei and Youyan led by the Cui family can also follow the agreement with Li Fengyun, under the guise of returning to the north and south, to transport grain and grass to Li Fengyun through the Gubeikou Pass, which not only achieves the established purpose, but also ensures their own safety and ensures their own retreat, once Li Fengyun fails, it is difficult to implicate them.

This plan kills multiple birds with one stone, and Murong Zhengze has controlled the risk to a minimum as he wishes, which is in line with the interests of all parties, while the bureaucrats of the two governments headed by Guo Xuan and the wealthy families of Northern Hebei and Youyan headed by the Cui family cannot maximize the future benefits, but they have minimized the immediate risks and can accept them, which can be described as a great joy, but for Li Fengyun and the alliance, this price is too great.

Perhaps in the eyes of the twelve ladies of the Cui family, Li Zixiong and others, exposing Li Fengyun's true identity at this moment and pushing Pei Shiju behind the scenes to the foreground will be more conducive to winning the support of the Zhuojun Left-behind Mansion and winning the support of the Holy Lord and the center, but this move obviously goes against Li Fengyun's original intention and touches Li Fengyun's bottom line.

Li Fengyun has always been reluctant to reveal his true identity, his enemies are not only the captives outside the Saiwai, but also the central high-level of the Eastern Capital, when his strength is not strong enough, he cannot fight against his enemies, let alone guarantee the safety of himself and the alliance, and another important reason is that it will inevitably affect Pei Shiju, and Pei Shiju will suffer an unwarranted disaster.

Once the Holy Lord and the central high-level decided that the plan to recover Anzhou was from Pei Shiju's hands, Pei Shiju's guilt would be greater. The grand strategy of national defense and diplomacy is directly related to the survival of the country and the rise and fall of Middle Earth, and Pei Shiju actually made decisions on such a major matter, lawless, and reckless, and there was no holy lord and center in his eyes at all, and the result can be imagined, and he will inevitably be attacked by the suspicion of the holy lord and the political enemies. If Pei Shiju falls because of this, Li Fengyun and the alliance will not only lose their "protective umbrella" and their prospects will be worrisome, but the central decision-making level will also fall into an unfavorable situation in the upcoming civil war because of the loss of Pei Shiju, the core minister in charge of Middle-earth's national defense and foreign affairs strategy, and what is more serious is that Pei Shiju's "counterattack" will inevitably be fierce, the power struggle at the top of the center will be white-hot again, the deterioration of the domestic political situation will be suddenly accelerated, and the self-destruction of the Great Wall in China will inevitably lead to a complete defeat in the Civil War.

All Li Fengyun's efforts were to win the Civil War, and if it went against people's wishes, it would backfire, but instead make Middle-earth lose faster and more completely in the Civil War, and it would be impossible for him to die to atone for his sins.

This is Li Fengyun's bottom line, but he is wishful thinking, since he deliberately used Pei Shiju, Pei Xuanji and his son, pulling their tiger skin as a banner, the fox fake the tiger, first deceived King Qi and Li Zixiong to help him implement the plan to recover Anzhou, and later deceived Cui's, Lu and other wealthy families in northern Hebei and Youyan to help him provide grain and grass support in the process of recovering Anzhou, then he must bear the risk of the lie being exposed, and this risk includes two, one is that he and the alliance army lost the support of Middle-earth, trapped in Anzhou, and was dying, The second is the fall of Pei Shiju, which adds "a fire" to the chaotic political situation in Middle-earth, and makes Middle-earth inevitably defeated in the Civil War.

Li Mengwei knew Li Fengyun's bottom line, so when the twelve ladies of the Cui family faced the stubborn Murong Zhengzhi, exposed Li Fengyun's true identity in a fit of anger, and moved out of the "big mountain" of Pei Shiju, Li Mengwei knew that something bad was going to happen, out of control, once the situation deviated from the predetermined track, the first to bear the brunt of the blow was Li Fengyun, the alliance army and the Li clan of Zhaojun, and then it was Pei Shi's turn to "and King Qi", and finally the entire wealthy family in Shandong may "lose their troops and lose their generals" in the ensuing political storm.

Although Li Zixiong, Han Shige, and Yang Gongdao did not know Li Fengyun's bottom line, they estimated that after Li Fengyun's strength rose sharply, his ambitions also flourished, and Li Fengyun was running wild on the road of "out of control", and Pei Shiju was discerning, of course, he could see that Li Fengyun was actually out of his control, so before going west, with the help of Li Fengyun's ambition, he implemented the plan to recover Anzhou. Even if Li Fengyun has three heads and six arms, it is difficult to parry, and in the end he can only surrender to Middle-earth and exchange Anzhou for his survival, that is to say, Pei Shiju has already set a trap for Li Fengyun, and he has to jump if he doesn't jump. As long as Li Fengyun jumps off the trap and takes Anzhou, Pei Shiju will be very safe, Li Fengyun and Anzhou are actually Pei Shiju's "life talisman", whoever wants to move Pei Shiju, even if it is the Holy Lord, must first look at Li Fengyun and Anzhou, so as not to move stones to hit their feet and destroy the Great Wall, on the contrary, Pei Shiju can control Anzhou by controlling Li Fengyun, and control the entire situation in northern Xinjiang by controlling Anzhou, so Pei Shiju will "tie" Li Fengyun to his boat again, and the two sides can only help each other in the same boat, so in their eyes, Li Fengyun's bottom line should be to recover Anzhou, to ensure that he can survive after jumping into Pei Shiju's trap.

Therefore, after the "satisfactorily" resolution of the grain and grass crisis, Li Mengwei should logically be elated, not worried, but Li Mengwei's performance was very abnormal.

"What are you worried about?" Li Zixiong said, "Wen Xigong (Pei Shiju) is on his way to the west, even if Guo Xuan secretly reports to the Holy Lord and exposes the truth, it will not endanger Wen Xigong in the short term." Besides, the Cui family's self-talk, there is no evidence, she herself can't prove that the white-haired thief is the white wolf, and the white wolf is the secret soldier under the Wenxi account, where does the other person get the evidence? Therefore, I can tell you for sure that before there is no definite evidence, whether it is Guo Xuan or Murong Zhengzhi, with their current identity and status, they would not dare to rashly impeach a central ruler by virtue of the Cui family's one-sided words, which is a taboo in officialdom and the way to die. ā€

The implication is that Pei Shiju will be fine, Li Fengyun and the alliance army will definitely be able to win the support of the Holy Lord and the center, but they need to meet some necessary conditions and it will take a certain amount of time.

"So-and-so told a lie in Gubeikou." Li Mengwei shook his head and smiled bitterly, "At that time, seeing that the situation was not right, I didn't dare to tell the truth, so I exaggerated the battle situation in Anzhou, so that they misunderstood that the overall situation was decided and the victory was in hand, so the Cui family decisively came forward to personally put pressure, and finally forced Murong Zhengze to compromise and give in." ā€

Li Zixiong and Han Shige looked at each other and did not speak. Now the key is to take Anzhou, and the premise of taking Anzhou is to defeat Ah Huizheng and the five armies of the Xi people, now calculate the days, Ah Huizheng and the five armies of the Xi people should have returned to Songshan, Li Fengyun is about to or is fighting fiercely with the Xi army under the ghost city, success or failure in this battle.

Li Mengwei was worried that he would be defeated, but in fact, even a lose-lose battle would be a disaster for the league. Although Li Zixiong led the Xuanfeng army to the south smoothly, he had already taken Baitan City and Panlong Fort, backed by Gubeikou, and could be regarded as worry-free, but the problem was that if the recovery of Anzhou became an unattainable thing, the alliance could only be trapped in the southwest corner of Anzhou, and it could still be worry-free? Can you also win the support of the Holy Lord and the center, and win the support of the wealthy families of Northern Hebei and Youyan? Obviously, it is impossible, so it is very unrealistic to pin all your hopes on Li Fengyun and vainly try to complete the battle.

The strength of the Xi people should not be underestimated, and the alliance army because of the lack of elite horses, the frontal decisive battle fell behind, even if it was won, it was a miserable victory, and then the two sides confronted each other in a stalemate, and the Turks who were eyeing each other immediately became "fishermen", and Anzhou finally cheapened the Turks in vain. This is the most realistic result, from this result, if the Li Fengyun Alliance wants to achieve the goal of recovering Anzhou, Li Zixiong's side must do its best to use all resources and find ways to persuade the Holy Lord and the center, so that the Holy Lord and the center must correctly understand that if the Turks get Anzhou, it will bring immeasurable benefits to Middle Earth, so even in order to prevent the Turks from "profiting", the Holy Lord and the center must put aside all disputes and support the Li Fengyun Alliance first, First of all, make sure that Middle-earth will not fall into irreversible passivity due to the drastic changes in the situation in Anzhou.

To put it bluntly, the reason why Li Mengwei is worried is that Li Zixiong, Han Shige and others are unwilling to fulfill their promises, unwilling to do their best, and just want to get something for nothing, but they don't want to pay the price they deserve.

In fact, the support of the wealthy families of Northern Hebei and Youyan led by the Cui family was also won by Li Fengyun by all means, and it had nothing to do with Li Zixiong, Han Shige and other powerful people. Now that Li Fengyun has done everything he can do, it is now the turn of Li Zixiong and other powerful people to "show their talents", if the resources they have used have played a role, and the Holy Lord and the Central Committee are determined to support the use of Li Fengyun Alliance to take Anzhou and ensure the interests of Middle Earth, then not only will Li Fengyun Alliance receive strong support, but Pei Shiju, King Qi and all the wealthy families involved in this matter will be able to benefit greatly, and the development of the entire situation will not deviate from the predetermined track, on the contrary, all losses will be lost, and all aspects will be lost.

Li Mengwei's deliberate exaggeration of the alliance's superiority on the Anzhou battlefield was indeed a last resort on the one hand, but on the other hand, he deliberately reminded Li Zixiong, Han Shige and other powerful people that it was unrealistic to expect Li Fengyun to win a battle under the Ghost Fang City, and it was better to honestly focus on the Holy Lord and the center to win their support, which was the foundation of the alliance's victory.

The drum doesn't need to be beaten, and the smart man can speak a little. Li Zixiong, Han Shige, Yang Gongdao and other powerful people did have the intention of picking up cheap before, after all, with their current rebellious status, if they want to use resources, they must be the most valuable and reliable resources, which will bring a series of uncertain risks, if they lose their wives and soldiers, it is not cost-effective. Now seeing that the Gubeikou official has a firm stance and will not give in on principled issues, and the assistance that the wealthy family can provide is a drop in the bucket, this will inevitably seriously affect the alliance's operations, so several people discussed it for a while, and then made up their minds to use the precious resources at their hands to strive to make the Holy Lord and the center make decisions beneficial to the alliance in the shortest possible time.

"You go to Gubeikou again." Li Zixiong said to Li Mengwei, "Tell the people over there that this morning, a certain went to the border city with Xinyi Gong (Han Shige) and Pingchang Gong (Yang Gongdao) to discuss important matters. ā€
