Chapter 157: "Borrowing Chickens to Lay Eggs" (Part II)

"This is a must-have." Zhang Huaisheng objected, "Not to mention that our Zhang family and the Beiping Army have always been wary of each other and hostile to each other, the 'Feiyan Hall' and the 'Dark Feather Hall' under the command of the Beiping Army have been fighting and fighting for many years, and the two sides have long become incompatible. Judging from the current strength of the Beiping Army, if he really invites him to go south, the world of Chai Zhou will be in his pocket and at his fingertips. ”

"Brother Yi is right. With our relationship with the Beiping Army, if we go to discuss the matter of raising troops with it, we are afraid that if we leave Beiping City on the front foot, the news will be leaked to the Chai Zhou court on the back foot, and we will use the sword of the court to kill our enemy. Zhang Fei obviously agreed with the statement of his brother-in-law Zhang Huaisheng.

Although he didn't think this strategy was feasible in his heart, and although his parents and sons were clearly opposed to this proposal, in Zhang Yongde's opinion, Zhang Neng, the nephew of the clan, knew very well about the relationship between the Zhang family and the Beiping Army. In the current situation that is quite urgent for the Zhang family, it is impossible for him to make such a hasty suggestion, presumably he will do it after some weighing and consideration, but he might as well listen to what he has to say. So, while letting his parents and children and righteous son be a little calm, Zhang Yongde motioned to his nephew to continue.

Zhang Neng's confidence, who was encouraged by Zhang Yongde, cleared his throat and continued to explain: "Uncle, although what the two cousins said also has some truth, but as the saying goes, 'there are no absolutes in the world'. Although the Beiping Army has always been at odds with my Zhang family, and my 'Feiyan Hall' and its subordinate 'Dark Feather Hall' have been fighting openly and secretly for several years, they do have some grievances with each other. But in the opinion of the little nephew, as long as the method is proper and there are enough interests to attract, it is said that we and the Beiping Army are just a little private fighting, even if the two sides have any grudges that do not share the sky, they will also release their previous suspicions and fight for the same goal. After careful consideration and weighing, the little nephew believed that there were three major reasons for setting the object of borrowing troops on the Beiping Army.

First, among the 'Qingyuan' brothers below Wang Kunjun, the envoy of the Beiping Army, except for leading generals such as Xu Shao'an, Qian Yuanshan, and Zeng Zhilin, most of the other members should have been businessmen before returning to Middle-earth. This is evident from the fact that they first returned to Middle-earth and devoted themselves to shopping malls, and after taking control of the Beiping Army, they still vigorously developed commerce, and for this purpose, they also deliberately established the "Datong Commercial Bank" to operate, completely ignoring their current status. It is the belief that is deeply rooted in the marrow of every businessman, and it is the nature of a businessman, and it will not change because of the change of his current identity. That being the case, as long as we tempt them to take advantage of them and induce them to take advantage of the benefits and interests that the Beiping Army cannot ignore, the merchant nature of the 'Qingyuan' brothers in the Beiping Army will drive them to chase and earn, without considering whether this is consistent with their previous practices, whether it is in line with morality, and whether it is worthy of their own conscience.

Second, whether it is a high-ranking official such as Wang Kunjun and Xu Shaoan, who are the envoys and deputy envoys of the Jiedu, or military generals such as Qian Yuanshan, Zeng Zhilin, and Mutel, or even members like Fan Wucheng, who are mainly engaged in business, they have always acted in their own way, and everything they do is considered and judged by whether it is in line with the interests of the 'Qingyuan' brothers and whether it is in line with the interests of the Beiping Army. In their eyes, it has always been the interests of the 'Qingyuan' brothers, the interests of the Beiping Army that are higher than the interests of the Chai Zhou court, and the interests of the Chai family. In other words, in their hearts, there is only the Beiping Army and no imperial court, so naturally they cannot talk about the reverence for the imperial court. This can also be seen from the fact that his brothers almost forcibly seized the Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun from the imperial court and from the official family to establish the Beiping Army and thus became the real controllers of this large piece of land, and it is almost certain that they secretly helped the puppet Han to resist the conquest of the Chai Zhou army, and then ruthlessly wiped out the puppet Han court. To put it mildly, when Chai Rong was there, the people of the Beiping Army may still be afraid of his prestige, and without harming the interests of the Beiping Army, they can still treat the court with courtesy on the surface. Now that Chai Rong has died, facing Chai Zongxun, a little doll who is less than ten years old, I am afraid that the Beiping Army will be unable to maintain even the respect it had before. Since the Beiping Army no longer has reverence for the Chai Zhou court and the Chai Zhou official family, in the face of the huge temptation of interests, it will naturally try its best to fight for it, and will never care about the way of the monarch and the courtiers, the upper and lower levels, and will not give up the benefits at their fingertips because they are afraid of the royal prestige.

Third, although the Beiping Army is strong, strong, and outstanding, judging from its previous series of performances, its ambition is not in the dragon chair in Kaifeng City, but in other plans. It must be known that with the strength of the Beiping Army, it is said that it is said that it is to go south to enter Kaifeng, even if it is to sweep the world and unify the world, it is not too difficult. But since the establishment of the Beiping Army, except for the order to go south to extinguish the puppet Han, it has never crossed its southern border into the area controlled by the Chaizhou court, and its soldiers have always pointed to the Khitans in the north, seized the land under the control of the Khitans, killed the Khitan army, and attacked the strength of the Khitans. Although the little nephew still couldn't understand why the people of the Beiping Army hated the Khitans so much, why they ignored the almost accessible anointed land and Huahua Shijie in the Central Plains and Jiangnan, but instead focused on pointing the spearhead of the attack to the north, and tried their best to rob the Saiwai, which could only be regarded as a wild and bitter cold land compared with the Central Plains and Jiangnan. But there is one thing that the little nephew can conclude, that is, the Beiping army has no interest in the Central Plains and Jiangnan, as long as we give them the benefits promised in advance according to the agreement, they must not stay in the Central Plains after helping us defeat the Chai Zhou court. After all, with the strong strength of the Beiping Army, if they were really interested in the dragon chair in Kaifeng City, they were afraid that they would have already swung south and entered Kaifeng City, how could they be like now, only with the Khitans. ”

Although Zhang Neng has said this large set of reasons, there will inevitably be some places that cannot stand up to scrutiny, and there are too many subjective assumptions, and he did not say what kind of benefits can be regarded as "heavy benefits" for the Beiping Army, and did not mention that once these benefits are given to the Beiping Army, will it affect the Zhang family's control of the Central Plains and even the whole world in the future after he completes the major events in the future. But for Zhang Yongde, who has been forced into a blind corner by Zhao Kuangyin, has no way to retreat, has nowhere to hide, and can already feel that the steel knife cut down by the other party is getting closer and closer to his neck, no matter how feasible Zhang Neng's strategy can be, he has to give it a try. At this time, Zhang Yongde was like a person who couldn't swim and suddenly found a big tree not far in front of him that could live in it, and like a desert walker with an empty kettle suddenly found a puddle of clear water not far in front of him that could quench his thirst, he rushed forward regardless of it, even if the big tree was full of poisonous snakes, even if there was a fierce beast lying next to the puddle of clear water. So, waving his hand to stop his son and Yizi from continuing to refute Zhang Neng's actions, Zhang Yongde stared at his clan nephew and asked: "What the virtuous nephew said is very reasonable, but I don't know what kind of heavy profits the virtuous nephew intends to use as bait to catch a cadre of snobbery in the Beiping Army?" ”
