Chapter 404: The Sandpiper and the Clam Fight

Li Min has greater confidence in the future, has a deeper understanding of his father's entrustment, of course he is willing to do his best, and he is still selfish, because his family members are all in the Eastern Capital, and he wants to take advantage of the situation in the Eastern Capital before the situation in the Eastern Capital gets out of control.

Li Zixiong took precautions, as early as more than two months ago, he had arranged for Xijing's family to secretly evacuate, but at that time, the Longxi crisis had not yet exploded, and Yuan Hongsi had not yet become the "target of the public", Li Zixiong believed that Xijing was very likely to be the main battlefield of this mutiny, so he withdrew Xijing's family to the eastern capital. Dongdu is not only safe, but also a group of accomplices in the mutiny, once Yang Xuangan raises troops in Liyang, these people will definitely support Yang Xuangan in various ways, and Li Zixiong can also use the help of these people to safely pick up his family from Dongdu. However, people are not as good as heaven, the situation has changed as Li Fengyun predicted, and now the main battlefield of this mutiny has become the eastern capital, and Li Zixiong's family members are all in danger of life and death, in such a bad situation, Li Min of course has to find ways to save his family.

Li Min bluntly told Li Fengyun that he had a way to get the Alliance forces to break through to the Yique Pass. Han Shige, the Wuyalang general who is now in the town of Yiquekou, is his family friend, and Han Shige is the son of the famous Middle-earth general Han Baohu. Han Baohu was born from the Yingchuan Han clan, and when he was alive, he was the pillar of the Yingru aristocratic group, the real power figure of the Heluo faction of the military, and Yang Su, the old Duke of Yue, was an ally in politics, and he also had a close friendship with Li Zixiong, the Duke of Jianchang. Because of the existence of common interests, the relationship between the older generation is naturally passed on to the next generation, Yang Xuangan, Han Shige and Li Min are all world friends, the political concept is basically the same, the vested interests are all damaged in the great unification reform, and they all have the will and motivation to overthrow the Holy Lord by force to destroy the reform, so Li Min has reason to infer that Han Shige, like him, although he is not a member of Yang Xuangan's inner circle, and he did not participate in the planning of the mutiny, but he must know that the existence of the mutiny, everyone is in a political interest group, Yang Xuangan collapsed, and the political interest group with him was destroyed, and Han Shige was also wiped out, so the mutiny broke out, and Han Shige had no right to choose at all, and he was definitely an important "chess piece" in the implementation of the mutiny.

Li Min swore that as long as Yang Xuangan raised troops in Liyang, Han Shige would inevitably respond in the Eastern Capital, so Yiquekou could not stop the alliance army from entering the Eastern Capital.

Li Fengyun was smiling, his eyebrows were dancing, and he looked ecstatic, but he was very vigilant, because Li Mi had not mentioned to himself the "close" relationship between Yi Que Shou General Han Shige and Yang Xuangan so far, nor had he made any hints to himself to take Yi Que Kou by non-force means, and Han Xiangguo did not mention a word, and he didn't seem to know that Yi Que Shou would be Han Shige, the contemporary backbone of the Yingchuan Han clan, and Li Minzai already knew that Li Mi was by his side, and had reached a compromise and agreement with himself and Han Xiangguo. Why did they reveal such an important secret to themselves when the interests of the three parties were already tied together? Is Li Min's move to win more trust from himself and establish deeper cooperation, or is it ill-intentioned to sow discord and achieve some ulterior motives by intensifying the contradictions between himself and Li Mi and Han Xiangguo?

After Li Fengyun weighed it a little, he decided to test it, "At present, although we speculate that Liyang may have to raise troops in advance, it is impossible to guess whether Yue Gong will raise troops in advance and when to raise troops in advance, so how to fight this battle of Yique and when we break through Yique must consider the pros and cons from the overall situation." ”

Li Min understood. Li Fengyun accepted his "gift", but this "gift" came so abruptly that Li Fengyun doubted his purpose

"Do you firmly believe that the exhibition of the situation in the Eastern Capital is just like your deduction?" Li Min asked.

Li Fengyun hesitated for a moment and nodded slowly, "I firmly believe that Liyang is forced to raise troops in advance because of the rapid deterioration of the form, and it is just at the beginning of June, otherwise the shape will deteriorate even more, and it will deteriorate to the point that even the possibility of raising troops will be lost." ”

"If Liyang raises troops in early June, it will only be about ten days away from now, then in such a short period of time, should we immediately take Yique, threaten the Eastern Capital, force the Eastern Capital to send more troops to attack Yique, and attract all the attention of the Eastern Capital, so as to give Liyang the best opportunity to raise troops?" Li Min continued to ask, "This move not only takes care of Liyang, but also takes into account the alliance, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone, is it more in line with your needs to promote the development of the situation in the Eastern Capital?" ”

Li Fengyun thought for a moment and said worriedly, "If a certain takes Yique in advance, he will definitely be attacked by the crazy counterattack of the Eastern Capital Garrison, and although the alliance occupies a geographical advantage, it cannot be compared with the garrison at all in terms of strength. ”

Li Min shook his head again and again, "I think that you have overestimated the Eastern Capital." The current eastern capital is a plate of scattered sand. King Yue is young, but he is just a puppet, and the real power is in the hands of Fan Zigai, who stayed in the eastern capital, but Fan Zigai's prestige is not high, his power is insufficient, and he can't control the eastern capital at all, so he must compromise with the Yue Wangfu and seek the support of the Yue Wangfu by sharing power. However, since the Holy Lord decided to stay in the eastern capital of the Yue Dynasty and grant the Yue King a special status in the imperial succession, the power game within the Yue Wangfu has escalated suddenly

Li Fengyun's expression was calm, but there were waves in his heart.

In order to persuade Li Fengyun, Li Min explained and analyzed his words.

Behind the king of Yue, there was originally only an old aristocratic group with the eight surnames of Xianbei Xungui, and the "boss" in this group was the Tuoba clan of the imperial family of the previous dynasty, that is, the Yuan family after the sinicization of Xianbei, and the mother of King Yue came from the Liu family among the eight surnames Xungui, so the Yuan family and the Liu family basically controlled the right to speak in the Yue Wangfu

The First Eastern Crusade was defeated, and the Holy Lord and the Central Center, in order to shirk their responsibilities, beheaded Liu Shilong, the right man of Shangshu, to thank the world. Liu Shilong is wronged, but if he doesn't make a scapegoat, who will? Yu Wenshu is the spokesperson of the Holy Lord in the military, if he kills Yuwen Shu, who will help the Holy Lord control the Twelve Guards Mansion in the future? So Liu Shilong has to die if he doesn't die, but his death is worth it, he exchanged his head for the "resignation" of Yu Zhongwen, the first boss in the military. Yu Zhongwen soon died of grief and indignation, and his death cleared the way for the Holy Lord to further concentrate military power, for the Holy Lord to more firmly control the Twelve Guards, and for the central government to attack and weaken the conservative forces of the military.

Liu Shilong went away with a "notoriety", but he made contributions to the promotion of the reform of the unification of China and Turkey, especially for the centralized reform of the military. Merit must be rewarded, and the holy lord has always rewarded and punished strictly, so the holy lord gave Liu Shilong a generous compensation, or made an exchange of political interests, and Yang Tong, the king of Yue, not only had the right to inherit the imperial system, but also was pushed to the position of the first person to inherit the imperial system.

In the new round of the struggle for imperial unification, the "upper position" of Yang Tong, the king of Yue, was exchanged for the life of Liu Shilong, and it was exchanged for the political interests of the old aristocratic group surnamed Xianbei and the eight nobles, and every step of the "advance" of Yang Tong, the king of Yue, was full of hardships and was stained with blood and tears, however, just when the old aristocratic group surnamed Yue was elated and complacent, and was ready to reach out to receive the "reward" of the holy lord, there was a sudden drastic change.

The Holy Lord took the weak strength of the old aristocratic group surnamed Yu as the reason, and handed over this rich "reward" to the Shandong aristocratic group dominated by the Cui family and other five-level wealthy families in Middle Earth. The peaches cultivated by Xianbei eight surnamed Xungui with blood and tears were finally "ripe", but they were picked by the Shandong people, and the two sides would inevitably fight.

The Holy Lord's move is too powerful, the Cui family and the Shandong people obviously know that they have been tricked, and the Xianbei eight surnamed Xungui obviously know that they have been fooled, but they have no choice but to go into battle with a knife, and the knife will see the flesh, even if they are both defeated and the jade is burned, they will not hesitate.

In this way, is Yang Tong, the king of Yue, the closest to the imperial system as it seems on the surface? The answer is clearly no. No one knows whether Yang Tong, the king of Yue, can win the imperial rule, but one thing is certain, before the "water falls out", whether it is the Cui family and the Shandong people, or the Xianbei eight surnamed Xungui, while "fighting with the snipe and the clam fighting", they must also compromise and make concessions to the holy lord, the "fisherman", otherwise the holy lord only needs to join forces with either of the two sides, and the other will be "dead".

"Cui Zhen's order can't get out of the Yue Wangfu, and Fan Zigai's order can't get out of the Liufu Mansion, and the two people who decide the fate of the Eastern Capital can't control the situation in the Eastern Capital, and neither can command the Eastern Capital Garrison, this is the current Eastern Capital." Li Min shook his head and sighed, "One of the important reasons why Liyang dared to raise troops and why Yue Guogong (Yang Xuangan) dared to mutiny was that the major forces in the eastern capital were working separately and scattered, and they couldn't resist the attack of foreign forces at all. ”

Li Fengyun frequently agreed with Li Min's analysis, and at the same time, an important figure entered his sight, that is, Taifuqing and Anchang Gongyuan Wendu.

"If we capture Yique and threaten the Eastern Capital, how will the Anchang Guild react?" Li Fengyun asked.

"No response." Li Min replied very crisply.

"What's the explanation?"

"In today's Eastern Capital, Fan Zigai is just a political enemy of Duke An Chang, and Cui Zhen is the person Duke An Chang will kill."

Li Fengyun woke up in shock.
