"Du Fuwei wants to surrender to my Guanzhong?" Li Xin was stunned for a moment, and then couldn't help but say: "Is this person a real descendant or a fake descendant?" "You must know that Du Fuwei has hundreds of thousands of horses, and there are more than 100,000 people who can conquer the habitual war, even if it is not as strong as Guanzhong, but it is really a bit unexpected to say that it will surrender, Li Xin has never believed in the spirit of Wang Ba, so after hearing the news for the first time, his first reaction was that it was false.

"The subordinates think that whether it is true or not, there is nothing to lose for us." Ma Zhou said: "Prime Minister, if Du Fuwei really comes to surrender, first, the prime minister can order him to raise troops to attack Jiangxia, Yuzhang and other counties, weakening Xiao Mo at the same time, but also weakening the Jianghuai army, second, the prime minister can order Du Fuwei to come to the camp to see the prime minister, if Du Fuwei comes, that is to surrender sincerely, if he does not come, that is to nominally surrender to the prime minister, just like he submitted to the emperor in the past." ”

"Yes, let the messenger in! Let Shen Qianqiu come to see me. Li Xin nodded, and did not continue in this matter.

"Cao Yong, under the command of the Jianghuai governor, visited the prime minister."

After half a ring, I saw a literati walk in, bowed to the ground, and said that it was under the command of the Jianghuai Governor, Li Xin nodded secretly after hearing this, Li Xin could also see one from this title, I am afraid that Du Fuwei is really coming to surrender, otherwise, he can be called the King of Chu, or he can be called Others, just called the Jianghuai Chief, which is what he called himself when he first started the army.

"Is Du Fuwei really here to surrender?" Li Xin's face was calm, but his voice seemed to come from the Nine Heavens.

"The chief manager has heard of the prime minister's prestige for a long time, and he voluntarily obeys the prime minister." Cao Yong hurriedly picked up the letter and said, "This is a letter written by the chief minister and the prime minister. Ma Zhou took the letter and handed it to Li Xin.

"I heard that General Du called Fu Gongqi an assistant uncle? He submits to my Great Sui, and Fu Gongqi is also willing? Li Xin opened the letter and saw that Du Fuwei's words were neither arrogant nor humble, but he still agreed very much with the various policies adopted by Li Xin in Guanzhong, and the above went to the end. But he was eager to see Li Xin, which made him a little surprised, and from this, he felt that Du Fuwei really seemed to be obedient to himself.

"The Lord Governor is the Lord of the Jianghuai Army, and the Lord Governor wants to submit to the Prime Minister, and the whole army is naturally willing." Cao Yong hurriedly said.

"That might be." Li Xin shook his head with a smile and said, "I heard that Fu Gongqi learned the Tao with his friend Zuo Youxian, and also learned the art of Bigu?" ”

"This assistant uncle is good, and everyone knows this in Jianghuai." Cao Yong's face changed slightly, and he hurriedly said.

"It would be nice if he learned the Tao." Li Xin nodded. said with a smile: "You go back now and tell General Du that Lone is waiting for him under Xiangyang City, let him come to Xiangyang to see Lone, Lone is also very curious about him, who is a character who occupies Jianghuai with his own strength." ”

"Yes." Cao Yong's face hesitated for a while, he thought that Li Xin would make a wish to Du Fuwei at this time. But now it seems that Li Xin obviously does not have this mind.

"You have come from afar, and you can't let you come in vain, and enjoy ten brocades. Fifty taels of gold, for the Ministry of Rites, if you pass the official examination in the future, the qualified person will naturally have the Ministry of Officials to reward you heavily. Li Xin said with a smile.

"Prime Minister Xie." Cao Yong was stunned at first. Then he hurriedly thanked him, and then retreated.

"Prime Minister, why don't you crown Du Fuwei as an official?" Ma Zhou asked curiously.

"If Lone Ruo is to promote Du Fuwei to a knighthood. Du Fuwei will also doubt this king, if this is the case, it is the best, the lone king is not because he surrendered him because of his hundreds of thousands of troops, but because of his martial bravery, he can help him. Li Xin said calmly: "If Lone is an official to him, I'm afraid he won't dare to come, for fear that Lone will kill him." ”

"The heart of the prime minister, I believe that Du Fuwei will definitely feel the sincerity of the prime minister." Liang Shuo also spoke.

"How is Li Shimin now? Where did he hit? Luo Yi is no match for him. Li Xin asked with some concern: "Although Luo Yi is brave, but in fact Li Shimin is more treacherous, he not only has the cavalry of the Turks, but also the old general of Wagangzhai, Luo Yi is definitely not his opponent." ”

According to the news, Luo Yi's subordinate Zhao Cihao and Yang Ji of the unified army are ready to rebel, then Luo Yi sits in Youzhou and repeatedly woos the Lu family, but unfortunately the Lu family doesn't care about Luo Yi at all, this is really because of Luo Yi's failure, and the Bohai Gao family is the same, losing the support of the two families, even if Luo Yi's ability is great, it is impossible to become the real leader of Youzhou. On the contrary, Li Shimin has long been supported by the Cui family, and after Li Shimin married the daughter of the Zheng family, the entire Kanto family is helping Li Shimin"

"Order Pei Yuanqing to quickly occupy Xinye, there is not much time left for us." Li Xin nodded, the Kwantung family is entrenched in the Kwantung region, and I don't know how much land it occupies, those soldiers, generals, and even the main officials who defend the city are related to these families, whether it is Dou Jiande or Luo Yi, they are not the opponents of these guys, as long as Li Xin is a little slack, he will be occupied by Li Shimin first. What he can do now is to eliminate the news before Li Shimin occupies the whole of Hebei.

"Yes, my subordinate gave the order." Ma Zhou also knew that Li Xin and Li Shimin were both competing for time, so he hurriedly ordered someone to give orders.

Fighting for world domination is like this, what is needed is time, the faster your enemy attacks, the more you can't lag behind, Li Xin thinks so, Li Shimin thinks the same way.

Zhuo County, Youzhou, this place is now occupied by Luo Yi, Yang Guang was stationed here, as the base camp for attacking Goguryeo, after the death of Xue Shixiong of the Xue family in Youzhou, Luo Yi occupied Youzhou, and then developed to the east, occupied Yingzhou, and became a great warlord in the Northeast. But now it is a pity that Luo Yi's army was besieged by Li Shimin in the city of Zhuo County, fortunately the city of Zhuo County is tall, and the defense of the year was very good, Xue Shixiong was also afraid that Goguryeo would come to attack him after the defeat of Yang Guang's army, so he also strengthened the defense of the city wall, which made his successor Luo Yi take advantage, Li Shimin gathered 150,000 troops to attack Zhuo County, but unfortunately, they were all resisted by Luo Yi. This made Li Shimin extremely annoyed, if his own soldiers and horses attacked Zhuojun, he would naturally have nothing to say, but unfortunately, half of them were Turks, let the Turks attack the city, forget it! Except for the bow and arrow cover, they are savagely attacking.

And among the Turkic generals who followed Li Shimin south this time, there were Turkic generals such as Ashina Simo, Zhi Zhi Sili, and Qibi He Li, these generals are not guys who only know how to eat by force, when fighting, once they find any danger, these guys will definitely not make a move, but in the positional warfare, they helped Li Shimin a lot, the reason why Luo Yi was besieged in Zhuo County was that he underestimated Li Shimin at the beginning, and relied on his cavalry to fight with the other party in the field, and finally suffered a big loss, and tens of thousands of cavalry of the Turks rushed out. He was suddenly a little unsettled, and after losing thousands of cavalry, he hid in the city of Zhuojun in a hurry, and resisted Li Shimin's attack with the tall city.

According to the news, there are only two people that Luo Yi trusts the most now, one is Zhao Cihao, and the other is Yang Qi. Although these two people have contact with their subordinates, although Luo Yi trusts these two people, he does not hand over the soldiers and horses to these two people to command, and the four city gates of Zhuo County are also Luo Yi's Yanyun Eighteen Cavalry Guards, although Zhao Cihao and Yang Qi lead the soldiers and horses of the headquarters, they are helpless. Eldest Sun Wuji shook his head and sighed.

"Is there no other way?" Li Shimin said with some dissatisfaction: "This Luo Yi said that he believed the two of them, but in fact it is not like this, hehe, this is somewhat similar to Li Xin, and he firmly grasps the military power in his hands." ”

"It's not that there is no way, it's just a little too vicious." Fang Xuanling hesitated for a while before sighing.

"Xuan Ling, what kind of method do you use?" Li Shimin asked curiously: "Could it be that Luo Yi will be willing to hand over the military power to the two generals?" ”

"It's basically impossible to give it to two people, only one person can do it." Fang Xuanling hesitated for a while and said: "If there is one person here who informs Luo Yi, according to Luo Yi's temperament, I am afraid that that person can be killed without investigation, so that there is only one person left, this person must be deeply trusted by Luo Yi, and he can also control the military power because of this." No matter how great Luo Yi's ability is, it is impossible to master all the troops, and now that an important general has died, will he take back the opponent's soldiers and horses? No, he will definitely give him to another person, and in this way, the other person's strength will increase a lot. Coupled with the cooperation of the Lu family, we may not be able to open the gate of Zhuo County. ”

Li Shimin nodded, but this method is a bit inhumane, this is betraying himself. No wonder Fang Xuanling was so hesitant. After all, these two generals have secretly taken refuge in Li Shimin, and Li Shimin sold one of them with his backhand, which is indeed a bit unkind.

"The Yang family has a son! Tell Yang Qi that this king will take good care of his son, and his Marquis Zhuo title will also be inherited by his son, the Li family will not be destroyed, and the position of Marquis Zhuo will always be Yang Qi's. Li Shimin finally sighed. What he needs is time, and he also knows that if it goes on like this, it will be himself who wins in the end. But in terms of time, he can't afford to wait, so he can only use this method to let his inner should be sacrificed, and the other internal should be benefited, get Luo Yi's real trust, open the gate of Zhuojun City, and let himself enter the city.

"Yes, the subordinates will let people pass the message." The eldest grandson Wuji sighed, and he was extremely helpless in his heart. Fang Xuanling also lowered his head and did not speak. (To be continued......)
