When Zou Shiming appeared in the Yamen of the Jiedu with a sad face, Li Rupei, who was happy in his heart, showed a serious look, he didn't expect Liu Ziheng to be so easy to take the bait, this is the first time Zou Shiming transported silk products by water, Liu Ziheng of Xiangyang couldn't help but make a move, maybe he grabbed so much silk, and the greedy Liu Ziheng was still secretly proud.

In fact, Zou Shiming's transportation of silk this time, not arranged by the Yamen of the festival, let alone arranged by Ma Haoxuan, this is just an accident, Zou Shiming, who has been transporting silk products from Luoyang for a long time, may have taken into account the problem of cost, and decided to directly purchase a part of the silk products from the south, and transport silk products from the south, the most cost-saving way is to take the waterway, presumably these silk products must pass through Xiangyang to reach Liangzhou.

Zou Shiming is a businessman, but he is also the president of the Liangzhou Chamber of Commerce, the goods were intercepted by Xiangyang, his loss is still a little big, but not bankrupt, the reason why he found the festival to make the yamen, but he wants to talk about it, he is a businessman and Shannan Dongdao Jiedu Liu Ziheng compared to nothing.

What Zou Shiming didn't expect was that not only Ma Haoxuan came forward, but even the prince came out to listen to him in person.

Zou Shiming's story was quickly written into a special material, which is very detailed.

Zou Shiming still didn't expect something, that is, this material was processed accordingly, and Liu Ziheng's practice of looting property has been accused of sabotaging business and trade, harming the interests of Liangzhou, and taking the opportunity to destroy Liangzhou.

Gao Chibang, Huang Biao and others came to the Yamen of the Jiedu Envoy.

In the wing room, Liu Yunzhang, Qian Shiqu, Ma Haoxuan and others were already waiting.

When Li Rupei entered the wing, everyone stood up and saluted.

"Today is August 16, and the original plan was to send troops to Xiangyang in early September, but I didn't expect Liu Ziheng to be so greedy. Blatantly intercepted property, such an opportunity could not be missed, a certain decision, the time for the iron-blooded army to attack Xiangyang was advanced. ”

After saying this, Li Rupei looked at Gao Chibang, Huang Biao and others.

"More than ten days have passed, are the soldiers of the Iron Blood Army ready?"

"Lord Wang, get ready."

Li Rupei nodded and looked at Qian Shiqu.

"Is the grain and grass ready?"

"Lord Wang, the grain and grass prepared can meet the needs of a year."

Li Rupei nodded with satisfaction and looked at Liu Yunzhang again.

"Liu Ziheng intercepted Zou Shiming's silk. Whether the materials are ready. ”

"Lord Wang, all the materials are ready, and I plan to send them to the capital tomorrow."

Li Rupei nodded, looked at everyone, and slowly spoke.

"The attack of the iron-blooded army on Xiangyang will definitely cause an uproar, it is conceivable that there will be too many arguments in the imperial court, the imperial court controlled by Tian Lingzi and others. What kind of decision will be made can also be predicted, but fortunately, the father-in-law can support the court for a while, but the support is not necessarily too long. As for the emperor, it can be expected that the emperor will definitely make a decision according to the requirements put forward by Tian Lingzi. ”

"There have long been people who have been worried about the Predators, even suspicious. The attitude towards a certain is the same, and some people are afraid of the Predator, wishing they could use external forces to crush the Predator. ”

Everyone was eerily quiet. Li Rupei has made too many analyses, and every analysis can be finally confirmed, and it is precisely because of Li Rupei's wise analysis that the iron-blooded army has been able to win victories again and again and grow stronger day by day.

"Tian Lingzi and others are afraid that if they can control their father-in-law, they will be at the mercy of a rat and obediently, but unfortunately he is wrong, how can he not be prepared for such a big thing, Liu Gong has already sent a letter to his father-in-law, informing him of the upcoming attack on Xiangyang by the Iron and Blood Army, and his father-in-law understands the meaning of this and is already making relevant preparations."

"There should be no problem for the Iron Blood Army to take Xiangyang, it's just a matter of time, but in the process of the Iron Blood Army attacking Xiangyang, it will suffer pressure from all sides, so it must be stable internally."

"My father-in-law must take Xiangyang within a short period of time when the iron-blooded army takes Xiangyang, and he will be appointed as the envoy of Shannan Dongdao, Liu Gong is responsible for this matter, no matter what kind of means are used, this step must be achieved, I know that there are certain difficulties in this, but as I said before, no matter what means are taken, both light and dark means are possible."

"Long-distance raid operations, for the Iron Army, is not a big deal, Liangzhou is about 1,300 miles away from Xiangyang, but the meaning of this expedition is different, the Iron Army needs to take Xiangyang, need to occupy the entire Shannan East Road, many policies implemented in the West Road of Shannan also need to be expanded in the East Road of Shannan, whether it can implement many policies well, it is related to whether the Iron Army can really occupy the East Road of Shannan, whether it can gain a foothold in the East Road of Shannan."

"Don't underestimate so-and-so, since Shannan Dongdao is regarded as a bag, then the iron-blooded army must strictly abide by military regulations, and never infringe on the interests of the people, and also protect the property of the gentry and wealthy households, what is needed first is the will of the people, and without the support of the people, you and a certain will not be able to gain a foothold in Xiangyang."

"Xiangyang is a military town, the city wall is strong, the Three Kingdoms period is the place where the soldiers must fight, a reminder to many soldiers of the Iron Army, must not despise this expedition, let alone take Xiangyang for granted, General Gao and General Huang, you are the backbone of the Iron Army, you can despise Liu Ziheng strategically, but you must attach great importance to tactics, you have the confidence to win is very good, can not be overconfident, can not give up the idea of cautious combat."

"Such a major operational deployment, it is impossible to keep it completely secret, when the iron-blooded army has not yet arrived in Xiangyang, Liu Ziheng may get information and will make many deployments, the sooner the iron-blooded army launches the attack, the greater the victory can be achieved at the lowest cost, so this attack on Xiangyang is the same as the previous rush to Luoyang, the same requirements."

"Jiedu made the yamen by Liu Gong to be in charge of all matters, Song Hu led 10,000 iron-blooded soldiers, focusing on guarding Liangzhou, taking into account Bazhou and Lizhou and other places, to ensure the stability of all parts of Shannan West Road, General Gao, General Huang and a certain led 50,000 iron-blooded soldiers to attack Xiangyang with lightning speed."

"The 50,000-strong army set out on the night of August 19, and before that, the scouts were responsible for surveying the route, drawing up the map, and attacking the city of Xiangyang, which must start on the 23rd of August."

"Although there are many difficulties, I still hope to take Xiangyang in the shortest possible time and capture Liu Ziheng alive."

After Li Rupei finished speaking, everyone's expressions were a little dignified, this battle is not trivial, it can be said that Li Rupei must take a step to strengthen his own strength, if this step is successful, the future development can be described as advancing by leaps and bounds, but if this step is frustrated, the blow to the iron-blooded army is very great.

At this time, everyone finally understood that for nearly half a year, Li Rupei asked the Iron Blood Army to strengthen training, and the goal was to take Xiangyang, and even during the autumn harvest season, he did not agree to some of the soldiers of the Iron Blood Army to go home to help the autumn harvest.

Only by being prepared to fight can we ensure the smooth operation of the battle, and the iron-blooded army can win every battle, which is not as simple as words.

After the arrangement was completed, Liu Yunzhang stayed alone.

This is the first time that Liu Yunzhang has been in charge of many matters in Shannan West Province after Li Rupei left, and his responsibility is very heavy, and the most important thing is to let Cui Anqian smoothly serve as the envoy of Shannan East Province.

Cui Anqian has arranged for his family to come to Liangzhou gradually, and Liu Yunzhang also has to make a lot of preparations.

"Gong Liu, during the time when I left Liangzhou, there are many matters in Shannan West Road, so please worry about it."

"Don't worry, your subordinates will do their best."

"The matters in the capital, Yan Fu will report in detail, if there is any change, please deal with it on the spot, the safety of the father-in-law and mother-in-law is the top priority, presumably Tian Lingzi and others also understand this truth, once the news of the iron-blooded army's attack on Xiangyang reaches the capital, Tian Lingzi is afraid that he will try his best to control his father-in-law, and at that time, you must take all necessary means to protect the safety of your father-in-law and mother-in-law."

"My subordinates understand."

"This matter is very difficult to operate, I think the focus is still on Zheng Jin's body, no matter what, Zheng Jin is the first prime minister of the imperial court, if he comes forward to insist, Tian Lingzi will inevitably throw a mouse taboo, the emperor there, a certain will write a letter, a strong relationship, a certain need is to play the time difference, take advantage of Tian Lingzi and others have no time to do it, promote the father-in-law to take up the Shannan Dongdao Jiedu envoy, quickly leave the capital, take over the father-in-law's affairs, Song Hu is responsible."

Li Rupei arranged very carefully, of course Liu Yunzhang understood the stakes, the princess was already pregnant, and she couldn't receive stimulation, otherwise it would be very bad for the body, according to Cui Anqian's arrangement, his wife should rush to Liangzhou within three days, that is, before the army set off, she should come to Liangzhou, as for Cui Anqian, she must have insisted to the end.

"Lord Wang, my subordinates have thought about it, take 10,000 steps back and say, if the emperor doesn't make an order, Cui Ge Lao doesn't have to wait, just leave the capital, the prince asks Cui Ge Lao to govern Shannan Dongdao, and the court has nothing to do."

"This suggestion, a certain has also thought about it, unless it is a last resort, it is best not to use such methods, then it will seem that a certain and the imperial court are doing it, there is no need for the time being, Tian Lingzi and others are eager for such a situation, a certain will not let it succeed, a certain is very clear, the sooner the iron-blooded army takes Xiangyang and completely defeats the Xiangyang Tooth Army, the greater the shock of the imperial court, the safer the father-in-law will be, and vice versa."
