Wei Wensheng is the minister trusted by the Holy Lord, and he is very supportive of the radical reform of the Holy Lord, and Zhou Fashang still knows about this, so he immediately thought of a possibility, Wei Wensheng committed this atrocity in order to protect himself, in order to draw a clear line between himself and Yang Su, Yang Xuangan's father and son, and to prove his loyalty to the Holy Lord.

Of course, this matter may not have been done by Wei Wensheng, or it was not from Wei Wensheng's original intention, he was framed, so who would frame Wei Wensheng? Guanlong's native aristocracy? It is impossible, no matter what purpose the local nobles of Guanlong want to use this mutiny to achieve, they will not cross their bottom line, and they will not commit this atrocity to form a life-and-death enmity with Yang Xuangan, so that the conservative forces will kill each other, which not only cheapens others in vain, but also damages their own interests; They will not deliberately frame the Holy Lord and the Central Committee, which will intensify the contradictions between the two sides, and will make the conservative forces suffer from the crazy revenge of the Holy Lord and the reformers after losing Yang Xuangan's strength, and the gains outweigh the losses.

In this way, in the face of the western embarrassment, only Wei Wensheng can do this, but Wei Wensheng will not lose his mind, otherwise the Xijing army will not be on the way to aid the eastern capital, so there is only one possibility, Wei Wensheng encountered huge resistance in the matter of rushing to aid the eastern capital, in the face of the unfavorable situation that the eastern capital may fall, the wind can get out of control, the national Zuo may collapse, and the great cause of reunification may collapse, he has no choice but to do this desperate plan and completely "pull the local aristocratic group of Guanlong" into the net. Push them to the opposite side of Yang Xuangan, push them to the opposite side of the Holy Lord and the center, either for tat and burn the jade, or compromise with each other and work together, there is no other way.

Obviously, after learning of this astonishing "atrocity", the province knew that Yang Xuangan was going crazy, and after going crazy, Yang Xuangan could figure out anything, he might destroy the Eastern Capital, or he might enter the Guanzhong regardless of a qiē, all in all, the situation in the Eastern Capital was in danger of getting out of control, and even if the Grand Canal was opened at this moment, the Second Eastern Crusade could not continue. Since the Second Eastern Crusade will inevitably be suspended, then the Grand Canal can be accepted for some more time, I believe that after the King of Qi broke off the mind of entering Beijing to seize the imperial unity, that is, for the purpose of defrauding more political interests, no matter whether the Holy Lord satisfies him or not, he does not dare to do things absolutely, and does not dare to turn against the Holy Lord, and the first to compromise must be the King of Qi, so the Grand Canal will soon be unblocked, and the expeditionary force can return safely, but the return date has been delayed.

After thinking about it, Zhou Fashang resolutely put down his worries about the future. The future is very uncertain, the Holy Lord and the central bosses are all masters of scheming, no matter how tricky the situation is in the future, as long as the rebellion is pacified and the political situation is stable, they will find a way to reverse the situation, so for him, the commander of the Wei Mansion, the top priority is to quell the rebellion and stabilize the situation in the Eastern Capital, this is his job, and it is his duty.

"The flow of pills stops at the Ou Moment, and the rumors stop at the wise." Zhou Fashang shook his hand with a cold expression, and said in a low tone, "Since there is no definite evidence, it is not credible, but it should be certain that the eastern capital is in danger, otherwise the province will not make two diametrically opposed decisions in two days, but, a certain think, the smooth flow of the Grand Canal is equally important, if the expeditionary force suffers another defeat because of the lack of food and grass, we will not atone for their sins. Therefore, the construction of a certain is that the soldiers are divided into two routes, one way is north of the river, the king leads the army to continue to attack Liyang, and Huangtai Gong (Cui Hongsheng) and Chen stay in Zuozhi; All the way south of the big river, a certain sailor galloped to aid the eastern capital, and Shunzheng Gong (Dong Chun) led the army to aid Xingyang, responsible for opening up the Tongji Canal. In this way, it can not only support the eastern capital, but also take into account the Grand Canal, which can ensure that nothing goes wrong."

The smile on King Qi's face disappeared in an instant, and his eyes showed anger.

Zhou Fashang directly denied King Qi's counterinsurgency strategy, which is tantamount to a public merciless slap in the face, from the perspective of King Qi, this is a shame, how can it be endured

"Qiao Gong, the east is in trouble, why can't Lone save it?" King Qi asked sharply, "It's hard to seize an opportunity to make contributions to the counterinsurgency, why did you deliberately stop it?"

Zhou Fashang was not afraid, and looked at him coldly, "If the king doesn't want to repeat the mistakes of the past, he should know when to advance and when to retreat, and the consequences of insisting on going his own way are very strict, can the king afford it?"

King Qi was "slapped in the face" by Zhou Fashang in front of him, and he was so angry that his face was red, but he couldn't say anything to refute it, he was extremely embarrassed, and in a fit of anger, he brushed his sleeves and left.

King Qi left angrily, and the atmosphere inside the big tent relaxed.

Zhou Fashang looked at everyone, and then his gaze stopped on the faces of Dong Chun and Li Shanheng, "What do you think of the construction of a certain one?" The situation is critical, we can't delay, let's speak freely."

King Qi is gone, and it is Dong Chun and Li Shanheng who represent the position of King Qi, and before Zhou Fashang knew in Cui Hongsheng's letter that Dong Chun and Li Shanheng forcibly "kidnapped" King Qi to Liyang's secret, so Zhou Fashang didn't care about King Qi's decision-making at all, he only cared about Dong Chun and Li Shanheng's opinions, especially Dong Chun, he needed Dong Chun's strong response on the south bank of the river, otherwise after he blocked the river, it was very likely to fall into the dilemma of a three-line battle.

Dong Chun stroked his long beard, thought for a moment, and asked, "Ask Qiao Gong, how does the sailor rescue Dongdu?"

Dong Chun understood what Zhou Fashang meant. Zhou Fa still had the intention to stabilize the King of Qi and "trap" the King of Qi in Liyang, so he could only try his best to "cooperate" with the King of Qi. The king of Qi wants to control the North-South Grand Canal by controlling Liyang, so it is natural that Dong Chun should rescue Xingyang and let Dong Chun control the Tongji Canal, so as to ensure the interests of the king of Qi. It's just that in this way, Zhou Fashang can concentrate his forces to aid the Eastern Capital, and he can kill from Luokoucang, Heishi Pass, and Yanshi all the way to the city of the Eastern Capital, and he can form a flanking attack with the Xijing army, and he can quickly reverse the crisis in the Eastern Capital, and the rapid alleviation of the crisis in the Eastern Capital and the rapid reduction of the storm will be very unfavorable to King Qi's "blackmail" of the Holy Lord and the center, and will affect King Qi's profit-grabbing goals.

"I want to know, where is the Xijing army now?" Zhou Fa did not answer directly, but. [,！ Rhetorically asks a crucial question. In a hurry, Zhou Fa still has no channel to obtain information about the battlefield and provinces in the eastern capital in the first time, but the king of Qi can, the king of Qi can be the "eyes and ears" of the Longren, and Cui Hongsheng can also do it, Cui Hongsheng has the advantage of the Shandong people.

Dong Chun hesitated for a moment, and said truthfully, "According to the news we have got, on June 21, the Xijing army will go out of Tongguan, if it travels a hundred miles a day, and Yang Xuangan is not in Kun, he should have arrived at Hangu Pass yesterday. According to Heyang news, on June 23, Gao Dugong (Li Gongting) still stuck to Dengjin, and King Qin (Yang Hao) stuck to Mengjin. Yang Xuangan severed the connection between the eastern capital and Heyang, but did not decisively take Deng Jin and Mengjin and cut off the passage of the great river, the purpose should be to lure the Xijing reinforcements into the battlefield of the eastern capital, and fight to the death with it, if it wins, then there will be no obstacle to the west's entry into Guanzhong."

Zhou Fashang nodded again and again, and said slowly, "If Yang Xuangan lures the enemy deep and wants to fight a decisive battle with the Xijing army under the eastern capital, he will not block the Xijing army under Hangu Pass."

Dong Chun bowed slightly, "Perhaps, the same rail duke has approached the eastern capital today, and he is about to fight to the death with Yang Xuangan."

"It won't be so fast." Zhou Fashang shook his head, his eyes showing disdain, "If the same track prince wants to bring the Xijing army to the battlefield in the eastern capital, I'm afraid it will take a lot of effort."

Everyone looked at each other and understood. No matter what means Wei Wensheng uses to coerce the local nobles of Guanlong, and no matter what kind of compromise the local nobles of Guanlong will make, there is no doubt about one thing, that is, the local nobles of Guanlong will never give up their set goals lightly, they will try their best to slow down the speed of the Xijing army, give Yang Xuangan enough time to attack the eastern capital, and give other reinforcements enough time to enter the battlefield of the eastern capital. The Xijing army will appear. It is too difficult to expect the Xijing army to save the eastern capital, and it is pure luxury.

Cui Hongsheng stroked his beard and sighed, "Fortunately, the sailor came in time, as long as Qiao Gong enters the Eastern Capital first, it will be difficult for the Xijing army to delay."

Zhou Fashang glanced at Cui Hongsheng and knew that he intended to test himself, so he no longer concealed it, and said bluntly, "The water division has limited troops, not only to block the waterways of the big river, but also to enter the Tongji Canal to threaten the eastern capital and contain Yang Xuangan, and at the same time to attack the Tiger Prison Pass to cut off the connection between the eastern capital and Xingyang, and cooperate with Shun Zhenggong (Dong Chun) to encircle and annihilate the traitors on the Xingyang battlefield, so it will fall into the dilemma of a three-line battle, so the water division has no ability to connect with Keluokou, Heishi, and Yanshi and kill the eastern capital directly. Take a step back and say, if the sailor really wins consecutive battles and is like a bamboo, it must be Yang Xuangan's plan to lure the enemy, a lone army will go deep, there will be a danger of annihilation of the whole army, and at that time, not only will he not dare to approach the eastern capital, but he will retreat to the big river, waiting for follow-up reinforcements, or wait for the Xijing army to enter the eastern capital, and form a front and rear attack with it, and attack Yang Xuangan together."

Dong Chun and Li Shanheng glanced at each other and smiled knowingly. Jiang Zuo people are Jiang Zuo people, at the critical moment, even if he doesn't stab Guan Longren in the back, he won't stick a knife in both ribs, Zhou Fa can still do this step is considered to take the overall situation into account. It is foreseeable that when Zhou Fashang commanded the sailors to block the waterways of the great river, and the troops entered the Tongji Canal to kill Luokoucang, which directly posed a threat to Yang Xuangan, the province was about to put pressure on the Xijing army, and Wei Wensheng was under heavy pressure, and he must try his best to coerce the local nobles of Guanlong to make concessions, so that the Xijing army would take the lead in entering the battlefield of the Eastern Capital.

Zhou Fashang turned his eyes to look at Dong Chun, "I wonder if Shun Zhenggong can move to Xingyang and fight the traitors with the sailor to solve the danger of Tongji Canal?"

"As the Qiao Gong wishes." Dong Chun immediately made a promise, "Tomorrow, a certain army will rush to Xingyang to quell the rebellion."

Zhou Fashang turned his eyes to Li Shanheng again, "Take Liyang, the Yongji Canal will be unblocked, and Liyang Cang can more or less save the emergency, so I want to implore Wencheng Gong to think carefully, if the troops are not enough and the siege is too difficult, whether to ask Huang Taigong (Cui Hongsheng) and Chen to stay behind and move to Liyang and work together."

Li Shanheng refused, "Within three days, the king will be able to conquer Liyang."
