Chapter 656:-for-tat

Duan Da soon woke up to the fact that Li Zixiong was misleading himself and sowing discord in order to firmly grasp the initiative in the negotiations.
In fact, as early as after Duan Da had a secret conversation with Li Zixiong for the first time, after knowing that his opponents included a large number of high-ranking magnates such as Li Zixiong, Han Shige, Zhou Zhonglaiyuan, Yang Gongdao, Yu Rou, etc., he had already realized that he could not control the situation Zhan, and the previous plan to kill people with a knife was also wishful thinking, and the promise to the Holy Lord could not be completed, and he was humble and light, and he couldn't play this "game" at all, so he was very decisive and did not hesitate to throw the "hot potato" to Feng Deyi, and with the help of Feng Deyi's power, the Holy Lord and the center were "dragged into the water". It is up to the Holy Lord and the Center to play this "game" and bear the greatest responsibility, while he is a simple executor and bears a small part of the responsibility, so that even if the "game" is broken and has serious consequences, he will not only be ruined and his head will fall to the ground.
Duan Da successfully used Feng Deyi, and Feng Deyi "pulled Pei Shiju into the water", Pei Shiju had to take the initiative to take all the responsibilities from the overall situation, and the Holy Lord and the Center were happy to see it happen, acquiescing to Pei Shiju's secret manipulation, if the result is very good, the credit is everyone's, on the contrary, if the result is contrary to the original intention, the responsibility is Pei Shiju's, and he will be the "scapegoat" of the Holy Lord and the Center.
Duan Da quickly stabilized his mood, and was fully vigilant against Li Zixiong, not daring to slack off in the slightest, so as not to be swayed by him in the negotiation and robbed of the initiative in bargaining.
"A certain is Zhuojun left-behind, and the condition proposed by a certain is the decision-making of Zhuojun's left-behind government." Duan Da responded solemnly, "Whether a certain is arrogant, ignorant or not, or whether he has lost control of the situation has nothing to do with the decision-making of the left-behind mansion. Now I just want to know whether you agree or not to the conditions that you have proposed. ”
As soon as Li Zixiong heard it, he knew that Duan Da was very sober, and he saw the current situation very clearly, and his "positioning" was accurate and clear, and he couldn't fool him at all, so he shook his hand and said, "The commander of this team is not an old man, but Bai Li Fengyun." "The implication is that my words don't count, I can only pass on your conditions to Li Fengyun, and Li Fengyun will make decisions.
Duan Da sneered and scoffed. Li Zixiong's words themselves are not wrong, but the meaning they want to express is wrong, and in Duan Da's opinion, there is no sincerity. The white thief is indeed the leader of this team, but the power represented by Li Zixiong is stronger, even if Li Zixiong can't really override the white thief, there is no problem in fighting the court. Now Li Zixiong actually said that the white thief has the final say, and he is simply untruthful, and he does not want to have substantive negotiations with Duan Da.
"The white thief still wants to bargain? Does he have the right to bargain? Duan Da couldn't help but sneer.
Li Zixiong smiled, "The fact that you and I can stand here and talk now proves that he has the ability to bargain." ”
Duan Da's expression was slightly sluggish, and a trace of shame flashed in his eyes. Li Zixiong didn't say anything to ridicule, which was regarded as giving him face. Indeed, if the white thief has no strength and no bargaining capital, Duan Da will compromise, will take the initiative to negotiate, and even delusionally use the white thief to kill people with a knife?
"There's no point in arguing about that." Li Zixiong shook his hand and said, "You and I can stand here now, which shows that we have a long-term vision, we take into account the overall situation, and pursue long-term interests. Our goal is to conquer the north, to open up the territory, to conquer the world's martial arts, to leave a name in history, and to pass on through the ages, so we must put aside contradictions, give up disputes, and work together to seek a common future. ”
Duan Da nodded again and again, deeply convinced. He was wise, flexible, and pragmatic, and immediately suppressed the resentment that welled up in his heart.
As far as the current north-south relationship between China and foreign countries and the situation in northern Xinjiang are concerned, the political game is too intense, not only the "fight" between the domestic forces, but also the "competition" between the Middle Earth and the East and West Turks, so this is a big chess game, there are very few people who are qualified to sit in the position of the player, they are the highest level of power on both sides of the Han and the captive, the rest are all chess pieces on the chessboard, the king of Qi is a chess piece, the white thief Li Zixiong and this rebel army are also a chess piece, and he and the Zhuojun Left-behind Mansion are also a chess piece, And if you want to survive in this cruel chess game, the only way to do this is to cooperate, and if you cooperate, you will benefit and you will hurt both, otherwise it will not only hurt your own interests, but also the interests of Middle-earth.
"What conditions does he have?" Duan Da asked in a calm tone.
Li Zixiong glanced at him, hesitated for a moment, and said bluntly, "You and I are both chess pieces, no matter what conditions you have, or what ideas he has, there is nothing in the player's chess game?" Righteousness. ”
Duan Da comprehended, and there was a hint of gloom in his eyes. If you can't control the situation, you can take one step at a time, step by step, and fight steadily, but if you can't control your own destiny, it will be too helpless, just like floating without roots, and you may perish under the big waves at any time.
"For you and me, it's imperative not to look to the future, but to look to the present." Li Zixiong took the initiative to propose, "There is an urgent need for trust between you and me, only with trust can there be cooperation, and with cooperation can each take its own benefit." ”
Duan Da's face was expressionless and silent, but he felt ashamed and angry in his heart.
Li Zixiong said that it was "lofty" and empty, but in fact it was a euphemistic refusal. It is not to refuse the terms of cooperation proposed by Duan Da, but to refuse to start substantive negotiations with Duan Da, which is tantamount to telling Duan Da that you are not qualified to negotiate with me.
Obviously, Li Zixiong was waiting for news from the palace, and he put his position very high, trying to establish direct contact with the center, so that he could cooperate with the military and political circles in northern Xinjiang, and occupy a certain initiative and advantage, rather than just cooperating with the Zhuojun Guard. Li Zixiong is a meritorious veteran, even if he has betrayed the Holy Lord now, he still has such strength and qualifications, while Duan Da's weight is far from enough, and he can only be passive and disadvantaged.
Duan Da had no intention of compromise, did not want to back down, and was even more unwilling to accept Li Zixiong's bullying.
You are a meritorious elder, you have arrogant capital, but you are a rebel now, the Holy Lord and the Center will never compromise with a rebel, this is the principle, this is related to the dignity and authority of the Holy Lord and the Center, so you think too highly of yourself and take yourself too seriously.
In fact, this can be seen from the edict of the Holy Lord, from Feng Deyi's resolute refusal not to have any intersection with Li Zixiong, a former "comrade-in-arms", and from Feng Deyi's repeated warnings to Duan Da not to focus on Li Zixiong before leaving, it can be seen that Li Zixiong has been "abandoned", but Duan Da has never been able to face up to Li Zixiong's traitorous identity, and has always put him in a very high position, and as a result, he has made wrong conclusions and conducted wrong negotiations with the wrong person, of course, there will be no results, and even self-inflicted humiliation.
"A certain came with sincerity, but you abandoned it like a piece of." Duan Da decided to strike a blow at Li Zixiong's arrogance, "After the Holy Lord ordered the King of Qi to relieve the danger of Gaoyang, Huo rushed to Shanggu to suppress the thieves, so Jing Gong (Feng Deyi) no longer needs to go to Gaoyang, and Jing Gong is now responsible for supervising the army in Shanggu to suppress the thieves." ”
Li Zixiong frowned slightly. Duan Da was forced by him and revealed important secrets again. The King of Qi went to Shanggu to suppress the thieves, and he was close to the northern frontier, as long as he followed closely behind Li Fengyun, he could enter Yanbei by the wayside, which was high-sounding and blameless, so it is not difficult to see that the Holy Lord and the center already had the intention of letting the King of Qi go north to the border, but they were worried that they would "stimulate" to the north and take a certain amount of time to make a buffer, so they did not make a public decision.
Things are going too well, if things go abnormal, it is a demon, after all, the negative impact of King Qi going north to the border is still too great, even if the Holy Lord and the Center have this will, they must find an appropriate time, and before the conditions for the Third Eastern Crusade are met, that is, now and in the next few months, it is obviously not the right time, so the Holy Lord and the Center will never be so impulsive and casual, there must be something behind this, so that the Holy Lord and the Center have to make compromises.
As for putting Feng Deyi in Shanggu to supervise the army and suppress thieves, there are all kinds of purposes, and it can be regarded as a test for him by the Holy Lord, and one of the most important tests is whether Feng Deyi will have secret contact with Li Zixiong, and whether there is also a potential hidden danger of betraying the Holy Lord. Duan Da suddenly mentioned Feng Deyi's new responsibilities, and vaguely had the intention of testing Li Zixiong to see if Li Zixiong had the idea of establishing contact with the center through Feng Deyi, if Li Zixiong really had this idea, he could give up now, because Feng Deyi would not dare to risk his death to contact Li Zixiong no matter what.
"The Holy Lord decreed that so-and-so was responsible for suppressing thieves and allowed so-and-so to act cheaply."
Duan Da repeated the same words again, the implication is that you don't have any unrealistic illusions anymore, the Holy Lord and the Central Center will ignore you, and the only person you can negotiate with is me.
Duan Da's "little tricks" were too naïve in Li Zixiong's eyes and disdainful, but Duan Da's repeated words again made him suddenly think of a possibility, if Feng Deyi saw through Li Fengyun's true identity, and used it to blackmail Pei Shiju, and deliberately "dragged Pei Shiju into the water", what should Pei Shiju do?
Pei Shiju can only launch a counterattack, taking advantage of Li Fengyun's secret before it is exposed, seize the opportunity, and first ensure that he is invincible politically, so he must take the initiative to offer a plan and take the initiative to support the king of Qi to defend the border, and if he wants to force the holy lord and the center to agree to the king of Qi, Pei Shiju must support the third eastward crusade of the holy initiative, so Li Fengyun must be controlled by him and used by him to ensure that the situation in northern Xinjiang and even the trend of north-south relations are always under his control.
Thinking further, if Li Fengyun is a chess piece in Pei Shiju's big layout, then now Pei Shiju will use this chess piece, so that this chess piece will not only enter the sight of the Holy Lord and the center, but also be used by the Holy Lord and the center, and become a sharp knife in the hands of the Holy Lord and the center, an indestructible weapon that can play a decisive role at a critical moment.
Li Zixiong suddenly penetrated, Pei Shiju is really a genius, if you talk about strategy, who can compare with it today?
Pei Shiju is coming, he will be coming soon, and the truth will soon be revealed.
