Chapter 227: Conspiracy to Surrender
After Li Quan listened to the words of this surnamed Zhang, the boss in his heart was not happy, he was not familiar with this Gao Huaiyuan, in the past year, because of the battle of Huzhou, this surname Gao entered his field of vision, although he sent troops to support Zhao Hong's rebellion at that time, some of them were not considered, but after the fact, this matter was not over? Didn't the court say that it would no longer pursue him?
Although Shi Miyuan was the leader of the party at that time, the current officials can't help but admit the promises they have made before! And this surnamed Gao somehow, how could he be in a hurry to attack him as soon as he took power? I don't think I have offended this guy before!
In Li Quan's eyes, now what he hates the most is Peng Yibin and Fu Daquan and others of the Flying Tiger Army, if it weren't for these people, now he has basically controlled the entire Jingdong Road and even most of the Huainan East Road and Hebei East Road, even if he doesn't dare to say that he can compete with the Southern Song Dynasty court, but at least he won't be so embarrassed!
So now what he hates the most is Peng Yibin and the Flying Tiger Army, as soon as the strategist surnamed Zhang said that he wanted him to unite Peng Yibin and the Flying Tiger Army to fight against the Southern Army, he was angry and shouted: Shut up! Peng Thief and Fu Thief are enemies with me, Li Quan, how can I go to them for help at this time? At present, the southern army wants to raise troops to recruit us, and it is estimated that those people are already happy and are about to die of laughter! And how will they send troops to support us? Don't mention this matter again, if not, see if I don't push you out and cut you down immediately!"
This strategist surnamed Zhang was immediately reprimanded and retreated to the back, and no longer dared to speak, like Liu Qingfu and others, they couldn't help but laugh at him, and asked to strike first, so they simply raised troops to capture Taizhou, Yangzhou and other places, and then relied on the Yangtze River as the defense line to teach the Southern Song Dynasty court a lesson, so that the Southern Song Dynasty court did not dare to covet them to the north.

Li Quan shook his head and said: You are going to shout when you wait for Hugh! Nowadays is not the same as before, Shi Miyuan and his party used to be afraid of war and made things bigger, but this surname is from the army, and he is not afraid of this! What's more, I heard that his father is now an official in Yangzhou, once we start to attack Yangzhou, how can he sit idly by? Although we claim to have hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses, how can we be the opponent of the national army of the Southern Song Dynasty? Now taking the initiative to attack Taizhou, Yangzhou and other places is self-defeating, even if there is a turning point, it will force the Southern Song Dynasty court to take action against us! Retire! Who else has what to do without?
Li Quan glanced around at the group of people under his hands, everyone stared at each other for a long time and no one responded, one by one complained, and said in his heart You Li Quan is now the boss, you said that you can't join forces with Peng Yibin and them to fight against the Southern Song Dynasty court, and on the other hand, you don't let you strike first, and ask me what are you waiting for?
At this time, someone outside came in to report, saying that someone had come back from the Southern Song Dynasty and asked to see Li Quan, Li immediately let him in, and soon a person dressed as a businessman walked into the lobby and knelt down to see Li Quan.
Get up and speak! Aren't you in Lin'an? Why are you coming back now? After Li Quan saw this person, he immediately asked him, this person was the person he sent to Lin'an, mainly responsible for inquiring about the movements of the imperial court, and responsible for liaising with some officials in the imperial court for him.
This person looked at these people standing in the lobby, and replied cautiously: The little one has something important to report to the marshal, I don't know if it's convenient here?
The people around Li were also his cronies, so they replied: If you have something to say, just say it! It's all your own people here!
So this meticulous work immediately replied: Report to the marshal, the small one inquired about an important news in Lin'an City, this time the Southern Song Dynasty court surnamed Gao made wild words, and openly made a military order in the court, claiming that the Song army of 50,000 or 60,000 was straightforward, and he would pacify Jingdong within half a year, and now he was preparing to send troops, and he would personally lead the army to attack the marshal after the year! I hope that the handsome man will prepare early!
After listening to this detailed remark, Li Quan and the others were first shocked, and then had a long sigh of relief, although Li Quan was afraid that the Song army would come to crusade against him, but he also knew that there were not many good fighting troops in the Song army, otherwise, the Kaixi Northern Expedition would not have been defeated so badly, although it had won in response to the attack of the Jin army over the years, but the Song army was used to arrogance, and it was an indisputable fact that the combat effectiveness was not strong.
And this time, this young boy surnamed Gao actually spoke wildly, claiming that he would take 50,000 Song troops and solve him within half a year, which is undoubtedly too arrogant, although this guy once beat the rebels of King Zhao Hong in the first battle of Huzhou, and no one denied that he commanded the first battle of Huzhou beautifully, but to make Li Quan believe that he was capable, with such a little Song army, he wanted to sweep his northern army, but this group of people did not believe it.
Huangkou child, you really underestimate us! He's just a stinky guy, and he dares to sweep us away with just a little Southern Army, it's just too much to see! In that case, let's let him see how powerful my Li Tiegun is! Ha ha! Li Quandang even laughed.
Along with him, some of his men also laughed and relaxed, as if they had wiped out the entire Song army at this time.
Only a few people didn't laugh with Li Quan, until they laughed, and then a strategist stood up and said to Li Quanjin carefully: What the big marshal said is very true, this surname Gao is too arrogant, but the small one still has to remind the big handsome, in this case, it seems that we have to turn against the Southern Song Dynasty court, and the small one thinks that what Brother Zhang said just now is also reasonable, although Peng Yibin and the Flying Tiger Army have a common enmity with the big handsome, but now we have to do our best to deal with the Southern Army, I have to prevent them from taking this opportunity to stab us in the back, so I hope that the marshal can temporarily give up his old suspicions with them for the time being, even if he doesn't expect them to send troops to help us, please see that they are also from the Red Jacket Army, and don't take the opportunity to attack us, so that we can concentrate our forces and deal with the Southern Army first!
And the small one has another idea, in order to deal with the current situation, the marshal might as well unite with the Jin State and use troops against the Southern Song Dynasty together, so that the Southern Song Dynasty can not take care of each other, and our chances of victory are greater!
After Li Quan laughed, after listening to what this subordinate strategist said, his mind also became lively, and what these two strategists said in his heart was also good, once he tore his face with the Southern Song Dynasty, when the soldiers really fought against each other after the New Year, he would have to prevent Peng Yibin and the Flying Tiger Army from taking the opportunity to stab him in the back, and he would have to divide his troops to resist him, so he would be in danger.
And the person behind him is right, if the Jin State that can be encouraged this time cooperates with him to commit a southern attack at the same time, then the Song State will have to deal with the Jin State with all its might, and then he will not be able to use troops against him with all his strength, and he can still be his soil emperor here, after thinking of this, he immediately nodded and said: That's right, it's true, what the two of you said does make sense, since that's the case, you will arrange someone to contact Peng Yibin and Fu Daquan, and tell them that the previous things are over, I hope that this time they will not be treacherous again, and fall into the well while the Song army came to me and waited for trouble, and see what they say! As for the Jin State, you can also go to someone to lobby for it, and strive to make the Jin State also raise troops to attack the Song Dynasty at this time, and cooperate with us to deal with the Southern Song Dynasty court!
Just when he was about to announce the disbandment, a strategist stood up again and said: Handsome and slow, there is still a word for lowliness, please consider it! Since the Southern Song Dynasty court can't be relied on at the moment, why didn't the marshal simply agree to the Mongolian Great Khan and lead us to take refuge in the Mongols and bring them down!
The Jin State is currently busy resisting the Mongols, and the current Jin lord Wanyan Shouxu is bent on making peace with the Great Song Dynasty, it is estimated that it is difficult to agree to the Song Dynasty now, and the strongest in the world is the Mongolian army, only by relying on the Mongols, can the marshal stay here for a long time, so that the southern army does not dare to covet us, so the marshal might as well simply lower the Mongol Khan, and just deter the Southern Song court?
After listening to the words of this strategist, Li Quan hesitated a little again, his words are not bad, Jin Guo can now be said to be too busy to take care of himself, and he has no strength to attack the south again, and a Mongolian country will keep them busy, and there is still the strength to attack the Southern Song Dynasty again!
But he still has some doubts, in the end he is still a Han, so he is afraid that many people under him will not agree, not to mention that he still has a big problem that cannot be solved, so he frowned and asked: Although your words are reasonable, but at the moment we are not connected to the Mongolian side, and there are Peng Yibin and ** them in between, how can we belong to the Mongols?
The fat strategist shook his head and immediately said: Okay! Might as well! Although the territory of the marshal is not connected with the territory of the Mongols, but the Mongols have actually coveted Jingdong for a long time, and have sent troops to attack Jingdong many times over the years, but they have been **, Peng Yibin and others have been pushed back, and now they are probably thinking that we are submissive to them, if the marshal is willing to belong to the Mongols, this is with their minds, the marshal may as well take Jingdong as a condition, and promise that as long as the Mongols cooperate with the marshal to destroy Peng Yibin, ** and others, he will lead the crowd to belong to them, Don't worry that the Mongols won't come to attack Peng Yibin and **, so I won't be afraid that Peng Yibin will stab the big man in the back!
A word to wake up the dreamer, although the surrender of the Mongols is not good, but now this method is indeed a life-saving way, if the Mongols agree, can raise troops to attack Jingdong, then Peng Yibin They have to deal with the Mongolian army, and then he only needs to defeat the southern army, you can sit back and relax, the Mongols are not good at governing the country, in the end they must rely on him to rule Jingdong, then he will really become the emperor of Shandong at that time!
Good! This method is good, just do it according to your wishes, contact the Mongolian Great Khan as soon as possible, and tell him that I, Li Quan, am willing to belong to him, as long as they send troops to fight with us to destroy Peng Yibin and the ** army, then I will lead Jingdong to surrender to their Mongols! Even though Li Quandang made a final decision, he made the decision to take refuge in the Mongols.
So after Li Quan learned that the Song army would go north to crusade against him, he also began to devote himself to the preparation of the war, and for a time the situation in Jingdong became tense again, Li Quan gathered the army, and Chen soldiers began to arrange the defense line along the Huaishui south of Chuzhou, and made preparations to fight to the death with the Southern Song Dynasty, and at the same time sent a large number of subordinates to lobby everywhere, hoping to win more strength to help him deal with the Song army in the future in a battle with the Song army.
