Chapter 51: Allies at this time, enemies at that time
"Zhao Yan, the son of General Lang in Yulin, Xiasang Prefecture, and General Zhao Yan of Langzhong and Pingdong, has come to congratulate the Lord of Xiangcheng on his succession to Wuzhou City." Zhao Yan said loudly, with a kind smile on his face, looking very polite, not at all like the immature big boy last night!
Sure enough, politicians are all in front of people and people in the back!
"I have admired the name of Young Master Zhao for a long time." Seeing the person coming, Zhong Liyao bowed to Zhao Yan.
Seeing this, Zhao Yan also bowed in return, and looked at Zhong Liyao carefully with a pair of apricot eyes: "Where is it, I don't know what Your Excellency is?" "This person is tall, his eyes are like torches, and he is dressed in brocade clothes, not like an ordinary child of a family!
"In Xiapingzhou, Zhonglang will consult with the general of the military division under the command of Yu and the doctor Zhong Liyao."
Zhao Yan heard Yan, his eyes became sharp, this person turned out to be Zhong Liyao under Xiang Yu! That Zhong Liyao on the list!
"It's better to see than to hear! Long admired the seventy-two sages of Great Qin, Zhong Liyao's name! See you today! It's extraordinary! Hearing that General Zhongli was like a divine soldier descending from the sky to smash Yezhou City, and the soldiers forced Yezhou Mu Yuan Ji to surrender without blood, Zhao Yan admired it! ”
"Each other, seeing Young Master Zhao today is also extraordinary and heroic! Yao also heard that Young Master Zhao went to Changzhou and Guizhou alone to persuade the governor of the two states, and he had all his savings over the years. ”
The two of you complimented him every word, completely leaving Xiangyan and them aside.
"Young Master Zhao is the queen master, and if you come to Wuzhou in person, you are not afraid of being known by someone who cares about your identity...... Could it be that Young Master Zhao is here to persuade Wuzhou again? Zhong Liyao said halfway through Zhao Yan's concern about coming to Wuzhou, then wiped his neck with his hand, and then jokingly said the purpose of Zhao Yan's coming to Wuzhou.
"I don't bother Mr. Zhongli about this, Mr. Zhongli is far away in the northern Xinjiang, and this time he came to the south, so he didn't want the horse leather shroud to go back, right? After all, the road is far away and there are many dangers, no one wants to see Xiang Yu's family dominate, right? Maybe there was an accident all of a sudden? He lost an important talent. Zhao Yan squinted his eyes and said, with a harmless smile on his face.
"This is also true, thank you Young Master Zhao for reminding me, Yao keep it in mind."
"You're welcome, I also want to thank Mr. Zhongli for the reminder."
Xiangyan felt like there were two Zhuge Xian calculating each other in front of her, which made her head big!
"So, two messengers, what is the matter with your coming? It's not just to congratulate me on my succession to Wuzhou City and my knighthood, right? I have a lot more going on here, how about going to the inn if the two of you are just talking? Xiangyan said, if she doesn't speak, maybe they will have another battle of words and swords! This seemed very childish to her! What if you win a moment and talk fast? It's better to send them away quickly!
"What the Xiangcheng Lord said is extremely true, Zhao Yan is rude."
"Lord Xiangcheng, Yao came this time, on behalf of my lord Xiang Yu's meaning, I am willing to fight with your army, I don't know what Xiangcheng's idea is?" Zhong Liyao didn't care what Zhao Yan meant, and took the lead in saying the "purpose" of Xiang Yu to send him from afar.
"Alliance?" Xiangyan frowned and said coldly. Why did the great warlord of the north make an alliance with her, a small prince of the south?
"Exactly."
……
"Yao, you go to Sangzhou to find Zhao Lingjie and ask him if he would like to form an alliance with us."
"Out-of-range?"
"Hahahaha, this is less than a sentence and you guessed it, it is worthy of the person I fancied!"
"Then if the lord has any special opinions, you might as well tell me."
"Why are you so outside! When there are no outsiders, it's good to call me Brother Yu! Hahaha~""Actually, the general trend of the world is already clear, and Daqin is like a broken plate that can't be closed!" People who are interested in the world have gradually surfaced, either Wang Xudong in the west, or Zhao Guangling, but I am more optimistic about Wang Xudong, the south is undoubtedly Zhao Lingjie, and Chen Lingjian in the east is half a catty and eight taels, but with Xu Ciliang's talent to assist him, it can be regarded as his third life! Sooner or later, we'll be up to him! In the Central Plains, as long as the princes of the Central Plains continue to contain Great Qin, Great Qin will not have the strength to attack us! After that, as long as we conquer Yuanzhou, Xiangzhou and Bozhou, the northeast will be all in my hands! ”
"The general trend of the world is changing rapidly, Brother Yu is looking at the future now, so he might as well wait for it to change after returning to the Northeast."
"Time is running out! The decision to form an alliance with Zhao Lingjie is left to you, this is a long way to Jiangnan, if there are any variables, everything is up to you to judge, I believe you. ”
……
Variable?
This Zhao Yan's eyes are the same as Xiang Yu, but in the entire Great Qin, isn't an alliance with them tantamount to seeking skin with the tiger?!
Dangerous breath! Zhong Liyao knew from the words just now that this Zhao Yan was very dangerous! He's the kind of guy who will stop at anything to get his or her ends, and he's good at disguise! Don't look at him talking and laughing now, in fact, he is very insidious and cunning in his heart!
Where there is a son, there must be a father! Zhao Lingjie is the enemy! If this person ascends the throne! Maybe it's even more difficult to deal with than Zhao Lingjie!
"Our army is weak, I don't know what we can do to form an alliance with the Xiang army?" Xiangyan asked rhetorically. She didn't know the other party's purpose, so she didn't dare to make inferences, and the matter of forming an alliance had yet to be discussed with Zhuge Xian.
"Coincidentally, I didn't expect your army to also intend to form an alliance with the Lord of Xiangcheng? Our army also has this intention, what is Xiangcheng's idea? Zhao Yan also made a request for an alliance.
"All to form an alliance with our army? Tell me, why should I make an alliance with you? What are the benefits of allying with you? "The two major warlords of the North and the South are going to ally with her, who has only one city? said that they had no special intentions, and Xiangyan didn't believe it when she was killed.
Zhong Liyao analyzed: "Xiangcheng Lord, think about it, why did Zhao Shao form an alliance with you? Zhao Lingjie has risen rapidly recently, and if he succeeds in the four states of central and southern China, the next target will inevitably be the entire south of the Yangtze River, as long as they fight Suzhou, and then Wuzhou! And their alliance with you is just to slack you, the purpose is probably to capture the central and southern regions without worries, and after that, they can unilaterally reneg on the alliance and press the territory with a large army. "He didn't say the benefits of an alliance with them, but the danger of an alliance with Zhao Yan!
When Zhao Yan heard this, he laughed and then said: "Hahahaha~ What Mr. Zhongli expected, why didn't I think of it?" It seems that Mr. Zhongli is better at scheming than me! ”
"Oh, isn't that so? Could it be that Young Master Zhao's intentions are more than that? I can talk to everyone about it. Zhong Liyao was not annoyed or angry, and said slowly.
"Oh roar? That is, Mr. Zhongli spends my gentleman's belly with the heart of a villain, Mr. Zhongli can ask the Xiangcheng Lord, does the Xiangcheng Lord's current situation still need Zhao's ulterior motives? ”
Xiangyan frowned, as if she looked down on her, and if he could say this, it showed that the military situation in Wuzhou City had been investigated by him, so he didn't take them seriously.
"As the Zhao envoy said, Wuzhou City's current situation really doesn't need the intentions of the Zhao envoy, as for the alliance object? Zhao Envoy should choose someone else. Xiangyan clearly showed her refusal, this Zhao Yan will not be dead-faced, and she will stick her face over and beat her.
"Oh? Is the Lord of Xiangcheng really no longer thinking about it? Yunyang's lieutenant Li Fen is fighting hard, even if you want Liu Chang and Li Fen to fight fiercely and let them both lose, you can't beat Li Fen's soldiers, the difference in strength is too great, even if the Xiangcheng Lord and Xiang Yu form an alliance, there is a war at that time, Xiang Yuyuan is in Mobei, and he won't rush to help you, besides, people with a discerning eye know that this is Xiang Yuyuan's close attack strategy, and the Xiangcheng Lord won't be unable to see it. ”
Zhao Yan talked eloquently, and also said that Zhongli Yaoti's alliance was just their ploy.
But this surprised Xiangyan again! How did he know that they wanted Li Fen and Liu Chang to fight, and then take advantage of the fisherman!?
Zhong Liyao said coldly: "Young Master Zhao's demagogic eloquence is really worthy of its reputation!" I don't know where did I get the news? ”
"How can you say that you are cheating? Forced by the form, if the Xiangcheng Lord does not want to be destroyed as soon as possible, only this trick can be used, after all, there is a shortage of talents under him. Zhao Yan glanced at the people on Xiangyan's side in the hall.
Sou!
Guan Duyi suddenly flashed in front of Zhao Yan in three steps, grabbed his arm, and glared at him angrily.
"Stop it!" Xiangyan hurriedly shouted, if Guan Duyi couldn't help but be angry and hit Zhao Yan! That would be tantamount to them declaring war on Zhao Lingjie!
Who knew that Guan Duyi put Zhao Yan's hand on his heart, and said in an awe-inspiring manner: "As long as this heart does not stop beating, the banner printed with the word incense will not fall!" ”
Zhao Yan was slightly flustered, he felt this man's blazing heart! At the same time, he was amazed at the speed of this man! How did he come to him? It's just a blink of an eye!
"That's right! Brother Guan is right! The banner of incense will never fall! Lu Yong also echoed sonorously.
Wu Zhibo, Chen Bei, and Ziying looked at each other and nodded.
Li Chunyi listened silently beside him as usual.
Xiangyan's heart also became hot.
Guan Duyi's words just now are indeed pivotal and inspiring! It seems that she is going to learn how to be a leader!
Zhao Yan withdrew his hand and said in a deep voice: "It's a good thing that the fighting spirit is high!" But fighting spirit alone can't solve the problem, and the Lord of Xiangcheng won't be as incapable of seeing reality as this general. ”
"Of course you can see clearly, how can you not see clearly? Even if I form an alliance with the two of you, it is not good for me to form an alliance with the two of you, at this time, the ally was the enemy at that time, even if you can help me survive the danger now, when only I am left in Jiangnan in the future, I am not sure that as Zhongli's envoy said, you will come to attack me. ”
If he had the world in his mind, and one mountain could not tolerate two tigers, would Xiangyan not know?
"Since that's the case, then I wish the Lord of Xiangcheng a victory." Zhao Yanzuo said, anyway, he didn't really want to form an alliance with Xiangyan.
"Zhongli envoy, our army does not plan to form an alliance with your army, as Zhao envoy said, I can also see the strategy of long-distance friendship and close attack, please don't fool my IQ!" Xiangyan said to Zhong Liyao.
"Lord Xiangcheng might as well think about it."
Zhong Liyao didn't really plan to form an alliance with Xiangyan, he was just playing on the spot, what he really explored was Zhao Yan's fiction and reality!
