On 20 March, on the front line of Kuangshan in the southeast of Licheng, fierce battles were fought between the rebels and the official troops.

The rebels were large in number and occupied the terrain advantage, only defending but not attacking, although their combat effectiveness was inferior to that of the officers and troops, but it was enough to form a confrontation.

The soldiers on both sides fought fiercely, and the secret correspondence between the commanders of the two sides was just as frequent. The king of Qi demanded that the battle of Licheng should be fought for at least ten days and a half months, so as to show the difficulty of the rebellion in Qi County and the difficulty of his recapture of Licheng. Li Fengyun has concerns, one is worried about the sailor Deng 6, the second is worried that Zhang Xutuo will suddenly kill, the third is worried that the confrontation will last for a long time, the consumption will be too large, and it will not be good for the Righteous Army Exhibition, and the other is that the momentum will be too big, once it attracts the attention of the Holy Lord and the Eastern Capital, it will inevitably produce a series of variables, which may affect the planning in the next few months.

King Qi disagreed, while Li Zixiong and Wei Fusi felt the same way, and advised King Qi to stop in moderation and not to end up playing too big. The caution of Li Zixiong and Wei Fusi attracted the attention of Dong Chun, the general of Zuo Xiaowei.

Dong Chun and Li Zixiong have a good personal relationship, so he found an opportunity to ask Li Zixiong, how did the first battle of Licheng end? How did the situation in Qi County change after it ended? At present, the King of Qi has expanded his strength to Henan, Xuzhou and Qilu, but it is impossible for the Holy Lord and the Central Hub to let the King of Qi show like this, after the end of the Second Eastern Crusade, they will free up their hands and will inevitably attack and contain the King of Qi, so the future of the King of Qi is not optimistic. In order to prepare for a rainy day, the current King of Qi must formulate a direction for the future, and formulate a feasible strategy based on this direction, for this reason, Dong Chun asked Li Zixiong, hoping that a few old guys would find an opportunity to sit together and discuss it.

Li Zixiong was silent in thought. In fact, since Dong Chun's arrival, Li Zixiong has been weighing whether to reveal some secrets to Dong Chun and pull Dong Chun into his boat.

Judging from the current political situation in the eastern capital, the political struggle will be more intense in the future, and the political storm around the battle for the imperial system will become more and more intense, when the conservative forces in the court fight for the succession of the imperial system, the reformers will take advantage of the fire to rob and take the opportunity to uproot one opponent after another, so whether it is in the center of the whirlpool Yang Tong or Yang Yu, the acting king of Yang, or the edge of the whirlpool of Zhao Wang Yang Gao and Yan Wang Yang Zhen, it is very, very difficult to win the final victory, as for the king of Qi Yang Lan, he has been deeply branded as conservative, As long as the Holy Lord and the reformers are in charge of the government, he will never come out, so in the eyes of the local aristocratic group in Guanlong, the King of Qi is now a "spare tire", a backup plan, although the King of Qi is important, but it is no longer the object of key support, and the tilt of political resources is extremely limited.

This point is very clear to King Yang of Qi, and Wei Fusi can stay and continue to assist him, he is also forced to be helpless, and he also has the meaning of gambling, but once the shape is not good, Wei Fusi will inevitably retreat and leave, and it is impossible to give King Qi a funeral. As for Li Zixiong and Dong Chun's generation, although they were all supporters of King Yang Lan of Qi in the past, the political situation has changed, and the future benefits that King Yang Lan of Qi can give them are very limited, and their ideas and positions have of course changed.

Dong Chun took the initiative to negotiate with Li Zixiong in this regard, and the reason why Li Zixiong wanted to pull Dong Chun on his boat was also in this regard.

"What do you think of King Qi's future?" Li Zixiong made a tentative speech.

"The future is not optimistic." Dong Chun was also very cautious, and only said half a word, "There is no doubt about this." ”

Li Zixiong smiled slightly, and then asked, "What are your predictions for your future?" ”

"It's very not optimistic." Dong Chun's expression was solemn, his expression was melancholy, and there was a faint sadness in his eyes, "King Qi took a risk, the sword went sideways, and if he didn't follow the right path, the road would get narrower and narrower, and sooner or later something would happen, and if something happened again, he would be completely finished, and with his collapse, so-and-so would be finished, and there would never be a possibility of a comeback, and he couldn't even save his life." ”

Speaking of this, Dong Chun glanced at Li Zixiong meaningfully and asked rhetorically, "What about your future?" ”

"Does so-and-so have a future?" Li Zixiong laughed at himself, "Can you still see the future of so-and-so?" You can't see it, but you can still see it? To tell the truth, from the moment a certain person left the Eastern Capital and walked into the camp of the sailor, the future of a certain person was already doomed, a certain person would definitely die, and a certain head would become a sacrifice for the expedition of the sailor. ”

Dong Chun was slightly surprised, "So pessimistic? Could it be that just because the Qi Wangju is outstretched and sharp, the Holy Lord is going to warn him with your head? ”

"What do you say?" Li Zixiong stroked his beard and smiled bitterly, "If there is no head of XX, who dares to guarantee that the King of Qi will not suddenly mutiny at the critical moment of the Second Eastern Crusade and seize the imperial throne by force?" ”

Mutiny? Dong Chun was even more surprised, all kinds of complicated information rushed into his mind in an instant, and then turned into a bolt of lightning, which suddenly illuminated his heart. Mutiny? It turned out that the King of Qi was going to mutiny, and the two old guys, Wei Fusi and Li Zixiong, were crazy, completely crazy, and this kind of rebellious thing could come out.

Immediately, Dong Chun fell into darkness, his whole body and mind fell into darkness, and fear instantly enveloped him, making him suffocated. King Qi mutinied, as a supporter of King Qi, can he run away? Even if he did not participate in the mutiny, even if he refused or even opposed the mutiny, he could not change the identity of the conspirator, he would die without a place to be buried, and he would involve the entire family without a place to be buried.

Seeing Dong Chun's shocked appearance, Li Zixiong laughed and laughed, "You are wrong, the truth is completely different from what you imagined." Then Li Zixiong restrained his smile and made a seductive gesture, "Do you want to know the truth?" ”

The violent ups and downs on the love made Dong Chun very sad, but curiosity kills people, and he can't refuse the temptation of "truth" at all. After thinking for a while, Dong Chun nodded solemnly, "A certain person wants to know the truth, and a certain has no choice."

Li Zixiong smiled, "Are you really ready to accept the truth?" ”

Dong Chun thought for a moment again, of course he knew the severity of the consequences, but after weighing it again, he still decided to know the truth, his fate and the fate of King Qi were closely linked, and he had no choice.

"Once you know the truth, you have to make a choice." Li Zixiong's expression gradually became strict, "But in fact, you have no choice, so please be cautious and cautious." ”

Dong Chun smiled bitterly, his smile was very bitter and desolate, "It doesn't matter, it's just a death." ”

"Good," Li Zixiong said, "it's all death anyway, so why care about sooner or later?" The truth is that the mutiny will definitely explode, but it is not the King of Qi who will mutiny, but someone else. ”

"Who?" Dong Chun was shocked and asked without thinking.

"So-and-so is one of them." Li Zixiong said calmly, "There are still ......"

Li Zixiong told the story, Dong Chun was dumbfounded, and in the secrets that Li Zixiong told one after another, he completely turned into a cold stone sculpture. He didn't expect that the truth was so shocking, and he didn't expect that the mutiny was actually not terrible, but what was terrible was the upcoming Northern and Southern War, and the future strategy designed by Li Zixiong and Wei Fusi for the King of Qi was based on this deduction and formulated the road to hegemony based on the northern Xinjiang.

"Why did the mutiny fail?" Dong Chun pointed to the point. In his opinion, this mutiny has so many powerful people with heavy troops involved, if you add the "big banner" of Yang Lan, the king of Qi, there is a great hope of success, but Li Zixiong, a participant, said in an unusually determined tone that the mutiny will fail? Why? If you are going to fail, why do you want to mutiny?

"Many of these secrets come from the same person."

"Who?"

"Li Pingyuan." Li Zixiong said, "Li Pingyuan, the son of Duke Anping. ”

Li Pingyuan? Dong Chun was a little puzzled and had some impressions of this person, but the impression was very vague.

"Yulin in three years of great cause...... The Yuwen brothers ......" Li Zixiong reminded in a low voice.

Dong Chun suddenly realized, "Is it him?" That secret soldier is actually the son of An Pinggong? Incredible. Where is he now? How did you meet him? ”

"Far away, close at hand." Li Zixiong stroked his beard and smiled, pointing in the direction of Licheng, "Li Pingyuan, the white thief also." ”

Dong Chun was dumbfounded, but fortunately, he had heard too many secrets today, he was numb, and he had calmly accepted the unthinkable. The white thief turned out to be Li Pingyuan, and Li Pingyuan turned out to be the son of Li Delin, the Duke of Anping, so it can explain why the white thief can grow rapidly, and why Yang Lan, the king of Qi, is willing to cooperate secretly with the white thief. In this way, Dong Chun also knew why the mutiny failed. What is Li Pingyuan? If he knows these secrets, then there must be others who know them, and the reason why the secrets have not been leaked so far is obviously that those in the know are waiting for the mutiny to explode, in order to make the most of the chaos.

Now, King Qi is one of the people who know, one of the people who fish in troubled waters, he will not stop the explosion of the mutiny, on the contrary, he is eagerly waiting for the explosion of the mutiny, so that he can make a lot of money in the mutiny.

In the same way, if some of the reformers were also in the know, they would have been more eager to push for the outbreak of the mutiny, so as to use this mutiny to deal a fatal blow to the conservatives in the court, so as to completely reverse the political decline caused by the defeat of the First Eastern Crusade, regain firm control of the government, and pave the way and clear the way for speeding up the reform of the great unification after the end of the Eastern Crusade.

Therefore, the mutiny will be defeated and irretrievable.

Dong Chun knew how to choose. If he stays in Pengcheng, when the king of Qi uses the mutiny to make profits, the contradiction between the holy lord and the king of Qi deepens, and the holy lord is annoyed and angry, he will inevitably retaliate, and the subordinates of the king of Qi scattered all over the country will suffer.

"What's going to happen?" Dong Chun asked.

"Take advantage of the limited time, take advantage of this Licheng War, allocate a large amount of money, food and weapons from Pengcheng, and strive to strengthen yourself in the shortest possible time, otherwise Huang Que will be behind, and the King of Qi and we are very likely to die on the battlefield of Gyeonggi."

Dong Chun comprehended.
