Li Fengyun received a letter from Li Zixiong. The attitude of the Holy Lord and the central center towards the recovery of Anzhou was expected by him, and the conditions for official support were also in his estimate, but he would not compromise and would not withdraw the Flying Fox troops left behind into Anzhou, which was directly related to the life and death of the alliance and the future hegemony, and there was no room for concession at all.

Li Fengyun replied to Li Zixiong. The recovery of Anju and the chaos of the situation in the northeast have created excellent external conditions for the Holy Lord to launch the Third Eastern Crusade, and as long as the alliance firmly controls Anzhou and promotes the development of the north-south situation in the direction favorable to Middle-earth, the Holy Lord will inevitably launch the Third Eastern Crusade. Based on this prediction, Li Fengyun demanded that the alliance must stick to the bottom line in the negotiations with the official, although this will cause a certain degree of difficulty to the alliance, but time is on the alliance's side, the alliance can afford to drag on, but the third crusade cannot be delayed, and the holy lord and the center will inevitably give in in order to win the victory of the third crusade.

After the victory of the Third Eastern Crusade, Middle-earth rested for two or three years, regained its vitality, and was able to free up his hands to deal with the two Turks in the east and west. This trend is very obvious, and it is clear at a glance, in fact, since the accession to the throne of the Holy Lord, there has been a strong intention of expansion in terms of defense and diplomatic strategy, first to the west, and now to the east, and after the end of the Eastern Expedition is either the Northern Expedition or the Western Expedition again, there is no doubt about this. The Eastern and Western Turks are difficult to fight against the powerful Middle-earth alone, coupled with the lessons of the past, in order to avoid repeating the mistakes of decline, in the middle of the country's thriving national strength, no one dares to use troops easily, once the brothers are on the wall, fratricidal, there will be the disaster of extinction, so it is not difficult to foresee, in the face of the tiger-eyed, ambitious, increasingly powerful Middle-earth, the two Eastern and Western Turks, in order to survive and develop, will inevitably take advantage of the exhaustion of the Middle-earth years of war and the decline of national strength to join hands to attack Middle-earth. The Civil War broke out. Taking advantage of your illness to kill you, this truth is too simple, from the standpoint of the two Turks in the east and west, the first strike is strong, and the second attack suffers, if you don't attack when Middle-earth is weak, then when Middle-earth recovers, it will be them who will be attacked.

Therefore, Li Fengyun "repeated the old tune" and insisted on his prediction, believing that the Great War between the North and the South would inevitably break out within two years. If the Great War of the North and the South will break out within two years, then next year will be the third crusade of Middle-earth, and the Holy Lord and the Center need Anzhou, a key chess piece, to play a role in the big chess game of the confrontation between the North and the South, and will definitely make moderate concessions to the Alliance, and when the Great War breaks out in the year after tomorrow, then before the outbreak of the war, it is impossible for the Holy Lord and the Center to be ignorant, let alone not to do their best and not use all means to prepare for the war, and the role that the Northeast and the Alliance can play in this war is immeasurable, For this reason, the Holy Lord and the Central Committee will not only make greater concessions, but will even give very generous conditions to appease.

Based on this prediction, Li Fengyun told Li Zixiong, if you and Han Shige and other powerful people want to return to the Eastern Capital, one year is not enough, and it is not enough to recover Anzhou, and forgiving your guilt can only save your lives, but you can't get back the power and wealth of the past, and if you want to rebuild your power, the only chance is the Great War between the North and the South within two years, only by defeating the Turks and establishing meritorious achievements on the battlefield between the North and the South, can you rebuild your power and shade your descendants. Therefore, in the next year or so, the task of the alliance is to develop and grow, that is, to consolidate and strengthen the echo between the two armies inside and outside the alliance and the king of Yanbei Qi, so as to win more capital to bargain with the Holy Lord and the center before the outbreak of the Civil War.

Li Fengyun's intentions were obvious, and he strongly urged Li Zixiong and other powerful people to use their "resources" to influence the decision-making of the Holy Lord and the central government, and maximize the benefits of recovering Anzhou.

In addition, Li Fengyun also asked Li Zixiong to contact the king of Qi as soon as possible, and asked the king of Qi to maintain the threat to the Turks on both sides of the Lightning River in the next few months, even if this move will affect or even worsen the relations between the north and the south, but considering that the alliance has recovered Anzhou, it has had a continuous and significant impact on the situation in the northeast, and has created the best external conditions for the launch of the Third Eastern Crusade in Middle Earth, it is difficult for the Turks to use the Donghu species to create obstacles to the Third Eastern Crusade in Middle Earth, and the victory of the Third Eastern Crusade has become unstoppable. Then there was the rapid approach of the Great War between the North and the South, so it was not Middle-earth that was most afraid of the deterioration of relations between the North and the South, but the Turks in the desert. It is not difficult to infer that even if the threat of the king of Qi worsens the relations between the north and the south, it is the first to compromise and retreat, and the king of Qi does not need to worry that his threat to the Turks will cause dissatisfaction with the holy lord and the center, and then affect his plan to develop the northern frontier.

Li Fengyun also urgently wrote to Li Mengwei and Li Sixing, asking them to try to persuade the key figures of the wealthy families in northern Hebei and Youyan, and secretly rush to Fangcheng to see the results of the alliance with their own eyes, and strengthen their confidence in supporting the alliance, and then Li Fengyun will have more in-depth discussions with them on future cooperation. Li Fengyun said frankly that the future development of the alliance is inseparable from the support of the wealthy families in northern Hebei and Youyan, and the recovery of Anzhou is the starting point of cooperation between the two sides.

In addition, they were asked to quickly inform the Flying Fox Legion of the Anzhou battle situation, and asked the Legion to actively prepare for counter-encirclement and suppression, and at the same time establish contact with the King of Qi in Huaihuang. If the left-behind legions want to win the victory against encirclement and suppression, they must win the tacit help of the King of Qi, otherwise it will not only be difficult to fight alone, but the situation will also be easy to get out of control, and once it has a serious adverse impact on the current situation inside and outside the Great Wall, it will be troublesome.

On the same day, after Han Shige, Jingjiang Liujinyu, and Erzhu Tianxiao led the army to sweep and kill the Hetao, they arrived at Huacheng, which was not far from the confluence of Wulieshui and Weishui, and immediately sent scouts to cross Weishui and rushed to the west bank of Wulieshui to get in touch with the main army, and asked Li Fengyun to actively ask to cross the river to participate in the battle.

After Li Fengyun got the news, he immediately ordered Han Shige, Jingjiang Liujin Fei and Erzhu Tianxiao to lead the army to be stationed in Huacheng, while appeasing the people's hearts and resting, while strengthening the defense on the south bank of the river, preventing the Xi army from sending partial divisions to attack and kill the Hetao and block the alliance's grain route.

In the afternoon of the same day, Feng Hong crossed the river again to negotiate. Ah Huizheng came up with conditions, he was determined to turn his back on the Turks and defect to Middle-earth, but Middle-earth must give the status and treatment of the Xi clan and recognize his identity as the king of Xi.

This time, the Middle-earth army entered Anzhou and dealt a fatal blow to the Xi people, which is directly related to the Turks' failure to keep their promise to protect the Xi people.

Kong Yingda scoffed and clearly told Feng Hong that Ah Hui was looking for the wrong negotiation partner, and he should go to the Middle-earth court to negotiate, instead of negotiating with the white wolf, the first anti-thief in Middle-earth.

"I have told you very clearly that our commander is a white wolf, our army is a rebel army in Middle-earth, and we are attacking Anzhou to find a foothold." Kong Yingda Zhengse said, "Ah Huizheng is already in a desperate situation, whether your Xi tribes continue to follow him all the way to the black, or break up and go their separate ways, it will not have a significant impact on the current situation, so now whether it is Ah Huizheng or the Xi tribes, there is no room for bargaining, either surrender or perish, there is no third way." ā€

Feng Hong didn't show weakness, and sneered at each other, "You can only deceive the drooping child when you say this." I admit that the white wolf is a thief, but with the white wolf's own strength, he can pull up an army of tens of thousands of horses and fully armed tigers and wolves in just two years? At this point, we accept the reality of defeat and negotiate sincerely, but you have no sincerity in negotiating at all. ā€

"Of course we have the sincerity to negotiate." Kong Yingda said confidently, "So far, we have a bloody massacre of the Xi people? No, we need the cooperation of the Xi people. On the territory of Anzhou, we are the dragon crossing the river, and the Xi people are the head snake, and the combination is two benefits, and the division is two injuries, and the combination is of course better than confrontation, but the question is, how can one mountain accommodate two tigers? Ah Hui is at this point and still wants to be his king of Xi, and he still wants to maintain his Ah Hui clan alliance, do you think it is possible? Do you have to think of yourself as an idiot, put forward some absurd conditions, ask for a sky-high price, how to negotiate? ā€

Feng Hong laughed angrily, "Don't deceive yourself, your purpose is very simple, in order to completely control Anzhou, you need a scattered Xi clan, not a Xi clan that can threaten your safety, so you have to kill Ah Hui Zheng and destroy the Ah Hui Alliance." ā€

Kong Yingda smiled slightly and said bluntly, "Yes, this is our purpose and our condition. Of course, Ah Hui Zheng can surrender, and we accept Ah Hui Zheng's surrender, and we promise that we will never endanger the survival of him and Ah Hui, but it is just survival. The future five tribes of the Xi tribe are part of the big alliance headed by the white wolf, and once this big alliance returns to Middle-earth, the five tribes of the Xi tribe will also become a part of Middle-earth, and this is our promise to the Xi people. ā€

Feng Hong knew the weight of this promise, although this promise seemed a little distant at the moment, but the key was that it gave hope to the Xi people, and in the hearts of most of the Xi people, Middle-earth was where their dream was.

Feng Hong crossed the river to the west.

Kong Yingda and Meng Ba rushed to the tent to report to Li Fengyun, and found that the commanders of the armies had gathered in the tent, and the atmosphere in the tent was very tense, and they suddenly felt bad.
