Chapter 56: Old Acquaintances
"At the current rate, it only takes twenty days to transport the grain here, so we will be safe." An elegant-sounding voice spoke.
"Well, that's good, the news from the master says that the emperor has been furious and is calling Wei Yu back to preside over the Black Water Pavilion. We have suffered heavy losses on the side of the Black Water Pavilion, our strength has been uprooted, and it is difficult to know the news now, you must speed up, otherwise the matter will leak out, even if the master spares us, the emperor will not be able to spare us...... "This voice is very feminine, but it is a duck voice. It sounds a little scary.
This voice was in front of Chen Sheng. Chen Sheng was very impressed by that elegant voice. Because he was not impressed with the owner of the voice. Because it was Zhang Liang's voice.
Chen Sheng took a deep breath. bumped into Zhang Liang in this place, and I don't know if it was lucky or unlucky.
Chen Sheng quietly walked around and saw four people standing together. Chen Sheng was stunned to find that two of the four people he had seen.
One of them is Zhang Liang, and the other is Ling Fengdu, the gentleman of the Ling family. Zhang Liang stood with an obese middle-aged man, who was fat and white, but with a hint of ...... in his movements Feminine and disgusting to look at. Ling Fengdu and the other person stood next to the fat man and Zhang Liang respectively, and the other person had a gloomy look on his face, Chen Sheng couldn't help but take a breath when he saw it, because from the appearance of this person, he knew that this person was infinitely powerful and murderous.
"Now we have transported a batch of grain to Dongou and Fujian and Guangdong, and the king of Tu is now treating me as a guest, and he is very obedient to his words and deeds, and 100,000 barbarian soldiers are determined to fight to the death and not surrender, which is enough for Tu Ju and Ren Huan to drink a pot of them." Zhang Liangyin laughed and said: "On the Lingnan side, there is no mountain road to transport grain and grass, and there are also Qin army scouts along the way, so we can't transport grain to that side, but we also got in touch with many soil kings in Nanban and told them that the Qin army is short of grain and grass, and as long as they hold on, the Qin army will soon retreat." So these earth kings have not surrendered so far. ”
The fat man nodded with satisfaction and said: "Yes, because of this, Tu Ju has killed a lot of barbarians in Lingnan, and the barbarians' resistance to him is more intense, and the battle is stalemate. However, the master is also urging, taking advantage of the lack of military food, hurry up and get rid of the high price of grain and grass through channels, and now Meng Yi and Fusu Gongzi are investigating the matter, it is estimated that they will get some clues soon, with Meng Yi's skills, to find here, it should not be very slow. ”
Zhang Liang smiled reservedly and said: "That's not necessarily, with the help of Ling Gongzi, we can be said to be unaware of the transportation of grain and grass, and I also laid out suspicious soldiers, and hired a transport team of the Longxi Wu family with a lot of money, let them wander around the Central Plains, and let them help us carry a lot of black pots." The most wonderful thing is that the master's clever plan actually succeeded in lobbying the head of the Ling family and the head of the Wu family, and at the same time paid tribute to the imperial court, prompting the emperor's southern expedition, otherwise our plan would not have succeeded, let alone successfully diverted the emperor's attention to the two of them. ”
Hearing this, Ling Fengdu's body, who was standing next to the fat man, trembled slightly. Chen Sheng was also shocked in his heart. For the plan of this group, he has figured out many times in his heart, and has also made a lot of inferences, and the results obtained are not much different from what Zhang Liang and the fat man said. The Ling family and the Wu family in the rich world are really what they use to confuse the public. But why did this Ling Fengdu appear here? And who is the master of the fat man's mouth?
Listening to the fat man's tone, his master should be very familiar with the emperor, and even one of the emperor's cronies, otherwise it will be difficult to grasp the movements of the imperial court. For example, Fusu and Meng Yi left the national capital to investigate this matter, which is a secret that few people know.
"Hehe, this battle together, the 500,000 army is constrained by grain and grass, and it will inevitably fall into a trap, our batch of grain can at least make a profit of more than ten times, this is not counting, if Tu Ju and Zhao Tuo are defeated, the imperial court will inevitably change generals, the most likely is that Taiwei Wang Ben and Yushi Dafu Feng Zai will lead the army, but no matter who leads the army to fight, then the help of Fusu Gongzi in Xianyang will be less, and it will be more in line with the interests of our master...... "The fat man's laughter was as ugly as a supper....... But Zhang Liang smiled and nodded yes.
Chen Sheng secretly scolded this fat man for being a pig, and he and his master were just as stupid. From the words of this fat man, this incident actually involved Gongzi Fusu. This is obviously a power dispute for the emperor to set up a crown prince. I don't know if there is a prince standing behind this fat man, or which kind of relative force headed by the prince?
But no matter who it was, Chen Sheng was deeply disgusted by this person. For the sake of the struggle for power, he even disregarded the life and death of hundreds of thousands of troops of the Southern Expedition, and cooperated with people like Zhang Liang, who is Zhang Liang? This product is full every day, and I have nothing to do, I just want to oppose Qin! And there is also the Xiong Zhen internal guard of the Chu State here, isn't this clearly cooperating with the remnants of the Six Kingdoms? Just for this crime, it is estimated that the people behind this scene are enough to exterminate the race.
Zhang Liang still had a calm and reserved smile on his face, but a deep look of disdain flashed in his eyes. He didn't get involved in this matter just to get a little money. He was well aware of the importance of this batch of grain. This batch of grain allowed him to recruit an army of 100,000 in the south and establish a princely state. Now he is aiding the southern barbarians, just to subdue them for his own use, and when the time comes, he will ascend to the top and lead the army to restore the country.
Of course, the time is far from now. At least it has to be dragged until the 500,000 army of the Qin people is wiped out, and then the combat power of the Qin State will be greatly reduced, as long as he ascends to the heights, the remnants of the major princes in the world echo, and the Qin Empire will inevitably collapse! And he can lead the army back from the south and recover Korea! In the past hundred years, South Korea has been the most humiliated by the Qin State, and after the Korean people return to the country, the end of the Qin people will come, and the fat pig in front of him and the master behind him will also have to kneel down in front of him and beg for mercy!
The two chatted a few more words, but found no trace of Chen Sheng. After a while, several people left and walked towards the river.
This valley is cold, and Zhang Liang and the others live in comfortably arranged cabins. Chen Sheng walked out of his hiding place with a grin, and slowly followed behind several people. The clothes on Chen Sheng's body were the same as those of the guards who came and went, and no one stopped him from asking him anything.
