Chapter 228: Zhou Bo Returns

"Moo......". The long sound of the cow sounded, Liu Sheng stretched his waist, looked at the low house, and the bamboo slip at the head of the bed, and smiled slightly.

Thinking of the past few days, I was forced by Zhao Jian and Xu Huaiyuan to ask whether the Shenji Battalion was formed, a pure firearms army. I couldn't help but shake my head, these two children are really a headache.

"Bang bang bang ......". Who's going to knock on the door in the morning? Disturbing dreams. Could it be that again, Ah Fu's prank is not successful.

Liu Sheng scratched his head and got up and opened the door: "Yihun, didn't you go out with Brother Zhou?" When did you come back".

"We just came back and haven't had time to go home and rest. I'm afraid of the anxiety of the son, so I came to reply first." Yi Hun led a group of guards, dressed in black. With a hat on his head, he bowed to Liu Sheng one after another.

Liu Sheng looked at the guards bowing in front of him, revealing a look of surprise: "Then what I gave you to do, how did you do it."

"We went to Jiaozhi with Mr. Zhou, and when we inquired about the news, we found envoys from Western Xia, Tubo, and Liao. Mr. Zhou felt that this matter was very important, and after our many inquiries, the four kingdoms of Jiaozhi, Tubo, Western Xia, and Liao had reached an agreement with the intention of carving up our Great Zhou. I don't dare to slack off, and I gallop back in the starry night." Yi Hun heard Liu Sheng's inquiry, and hurriedly replied respectfully. Since three years ago, Childe has returned to the village. The guards and family members in the palace immediately became members of the intelligence network and traveled around for Liu Sheng.

Liu Sheng frowned slightly when he heard Yihun's reply, and then sighed: "It seems that Liu Ren's analysis is really right, it is because he is in the north." Knowing that the Western Xia envoy secretly went to Liao, it seemed that he had a plan. Later, there were all kinds of signs that they should be plotting against me Da Zhou. It is a pity that in recent years, our country has developed too fast, and at the same time, it has also made neighboring countries feel the crisis."

"Childe, although you are in the village, you are always concerned about the changes in the situation. In that case, why don't you agree to your majesty and become an official ...... the court". Yi Hun thought of the events of the past three years, and persuaded Liu Sheng for a while. Others are in the village, but they have the world in their hearts. The good hall is sprinkled all over, north and south of the river. The sparrows entered the sea, suppressed pirates, determined trade routes, and established the Admiralty's Palace. There is a shadow of him in every one of these piles. He doesn't seem to care, but he is. Countless days and nights, thinking about it.

Seeing Yihun's persuasion, Liu Sheng shook his head and refused: "Brother Zhou should come back."

"Mr. Zhou came back with us, and now he has returned home." Seeing that Liu Sheng refused, Yihun didn't say much on this topic, and hurriedly replied respectfully.

Liu Sheng fell into deep thought, saw the dust on their faces, and smiled slightly: "You guys are probably tired from Jiaozhi in a hurry." It is better to go home and settle down first, and if there is anything else, I will inform you before it is too late."

"Subordinates retire ......". Yi Hun heard Liu Sheng's order, looked at the group of guards behind him, and nodded one after another. Turning to Liu Sheng, everyone said goodbye in unison.

Yi Hun took a group of guards and turned and walked away. Liu Sheng shook his head with a wry smile, looked at a tree in front of him, and went to wash. Now that Brother Zhou has returned, how can he make him wait for a long time.

"Moo......". In the cowshed, the buffalo saw Liu Sheng coming and kept shaking his head and tail at him.

Liu Sheng heard the sound of the cow and smiled: "Brother Niu, are you hungry?" Don't wait for me to come back and feed you."

"Moo......". There was another cow cry, and the poor saw Liu Sheng walking away.

Walk through the bamboo forest, next to the lake, a low house. The door opened, and Zhou Bo lifted his pen. It's like writing something on a blank piece of paper.

Liu Sheng saw Zhou Bo writing with a pen and walked over with a smile. A big Rong character appeared in front of me. With a slight movement in his heart, it seems that the four countries have become an opportunity.

"You're here? It seems that Yihun has already told you the matter." When Zhou Bo heard the sound of footsteps, he didn't look up, but just asked lightly.

Liu Sheng smiled when he heard the inquiry, and nodded slightly: "Now the four countries have joined forces to cut down Zhou together." I am in danger of being annihilated by a foreign race. I don't know what Brother Zhou's plans are. After all, there are some things that can't be solved by blindly evading them."

"One in the north, one in the south. Liao in the north and Dali in the south. I heard that you have a good relationship with Ah Fu and Yelujing, the prince of Liao. His supporters are the Xituo faction. Because Emperor Liao did not like the crown prince, he supported the rise of the southern faction. That's why the current situation is formed. If you and Ah Fu, anyone. If you go to Liao to lobby Yelujing, it will not be difficult to delay Liao." Zhou Bo put down his pen, looked at Liu Sheng, and said what he had in mind.

Liu Sheng listened attentively and nodded slightly from time to time. Knowing that he hadn't finished his words, he listened quietly.

After Zhou Bo finished talking about the north, he hesitated for a while, as if he was brewing something in his heart: "As for the south, the first is in Dali." Dali and Jiaozhi hate each other all over the world, and Dali's attitude is unclear at this time, which makes people wonder. If Dali can be persuaded to send troops to fight and win the battle, Tubo will not dare to act rashly when he asks for the report. The imperial court could take advantage of this opportunity to attack Western Xia. As long as the Liao State can retreat from Western Xia before it takes action, this situation will be self-resolved."

"Although Brother Zhou's plan is good, there are still several major problems. First, why did you say that Dali would send troops to make them willingly give up the profits of the fishermen. Second, even if the two countries are equal in strength, how can they win a battle. Third, it will not be difficult to persuade the prince of Liao to delay the dispatch of troops. But the difficulty is how long it can be delayed. Fourth, the imperial court did not have time to wait for Dali to defeat Jiaozhi, so he could only send troops as soon as possible. Then who can reassure the imperial court. As long as he enters Dali, he can be the same as what Brother Zhou said. persuade Dali to send troops, and he will definitely win in one battle." After listening to Zhou Bo's remarks, Liu Sheng fell into deep thought, and asked four questions in a row.

Zhou Bo did not rush to answer, but looked at the Rong character on the paper, as if he had made a decision in his heart: "These four points are the most important for Dali." Only you and I can solve it."

"Me and you? I would like to listen to Brother Zhou's detailed explanation." Liu Sheng saw Zhou Bo's firm gaze and smiled in his heart. Brother Zhou, it seems that you still can't help it.

Seeing Liu Sheng's respectful appearance, Zhou Bo fell into deep thought, and organized the following words in his heart: "I have an old relationship with Dali, if I go to Dali as an official." Dali will definitely cut down Jiaozhi, I am confident, a battle will be fixed. You can write to Your Majesty and ask him to devote all his strength to the crusade against Western Xia. At that time, Western Xia was in a hurry to ask for help, and Tubo would definitely go north to join the war. If you fight two countries with one country, the war will be stalemate. As long as Dali returns to the west with the power of victory, Tubo will retreat. Our dynasty can break the Western Xia in one fell swoop, and the Liao State will definitely stop the army when it hears the news."

"This matter is simple, I can write a letter of resignation to Your Majesty. If Brother Zhou is out of the horse, then I will wait for good news in the village." Liu Sheng nodded as he listened. Zhou Bo went to Dali in this matter, and the crisis in the south could be solved. As for the north, the dilemma in the west will naturally be solved by the imperial court.

When Zhou Bo heard Liu Sheng, he still wanted to stay in the village, and shook his head slightly: "If you don't go to Dali with me, I'm afraid that the court will not be at ease." After all, I, Zhou Bo, have no reputation in Da Zhou, and I can't calm people's hearts."

"It's simple, I'll go with you. Brother Zhou, I'm curious, what is your relationship with Dali, and you are so sure." Liu Sheng heard Zhou Bo say it to this extent, and simply asked the question he was most concerned about. The heart rises, and there is a trace of anticipation. (To be continued.) )
