Section 37 Drawing Wolves to Fight
readx;
"Brother Hu, the five lakes have made a big move this year, His Royal Highness the King of Xiang attaches great importance to agriculture, I heard that in the vigorous dredging of the river and the repair of water conservancy facilities, it seems that the five lakes will definitely be able to get a bumper harvest in the spring season. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info "Su Qin finally opened the topic, the purpose of the five lakes to renovate the river is not purely for agriculture, this is what Su Qin knows, with the smooth flow of waterways, the traffic situation based on waterway transportation can not only be greatly improved, but also conducive to the export of grain, and more importantly, the mobilization ability of Situ Biao's army is also a great improvement, which is the main purpose of Situ Biao.
"Yes, Brother Su, although Wuhu is the main grain producing area, but because of the drought from last year to this year, the grain production has been seriously reduced, and even the local self-sufficiency of Wuhu is a little difficult. The scribe surnamed Hu also replied with a smile that before entering the deep-seated topic, these government affairs can often play a role in easing the atmosphere and connecting the past and the future.
"The preparatory meeting will be held in the afternoon, although the empire is a lot more stable externally, but there are many hidden worries inside, especially after last year's drought, the north is thousands of miles away, and the south is withering, like this, the empire's situation will only become more and more difficult, and the foreign enemy has been watching the empire, once there is a chance, it will definitely attack the empire, I don't know if the kings will only have any good suggestions for Brother Hu this time?" Su Qin didn't want to go around too many circles, and a preparatory meeting would be held in the afternoon, Situ Tai, Situ Yuan, Although Su Qin wanted to wait until the attitudes of all parties became clear, he still hoped to reach a tacit understanding with Situ Biao and his forces as soon as possible according to the requirements of the sovereign, even if they could not meet at this time, Su Qin and Wang Yi also planned to contact Situ Biao's representatives after the afternoon to find common ground between the two sides.
"Brother Su said seriously, these affairs should have been discussed by several highnesses, but we subordinates only need to arrange some procedural chores, as for these issues, it is better to wait until several highnesses meet before they will discuss them. The scribe surnamed Hu pondered for a while before slowly pushing the way, now does not seem to be the time to pick out the attitude, the best way is to be with the mud, can drag it out, both to show the other party that his side will never be the enemy of the other party, but not to tear his face with that side, the heat in the middle must be mastered, it is indeed necessary to think about it, and now is not the time.
Secretly scolded the old slippery head, Su Qin also knew that the other party would not show his attitude so quickly, and the Foreign Affairs Department sent someone to Yueyang to contact Situ Biao according to Wufeng's arrangement, but the other party has been unwilling to answer this question head-on, which led to Wufeng to arrange the first army in Kansai, and the other party's tone has changed a little, probably also seeing that Situ Tai's possible surname on the throne has increased, which is also dangerous for Wuhu, so he has the will to maintain the status quo, but this idea of maintaining the status quo is just a transitional thing, and sooner or later there needs to be a clear attitude to show that Su Qin believes that the other party will have a wise decision, but it still needs to go through some mental struggle.
"Brother Hu is right, but we have to prepare in advance for many things, the word "preparation" of this preparatory meeting is to ask those of us who are subordinates to share the worries of the lords, and there is a forward-looking surname, I think Brother Hu probably has already counted it in his heart. Su Qin nodded with a smile and said unhurriedly.
"Brother Su, I don't think we have to go around in circles, now I really can't give Brother Su a clear answer, but I think soon it will be clear to both of us, you don't have to force Brother anymore. The scribe surnamed Hu faced Su Qin's pressure step by step, and begged for mercy helplessly.
Seeing the other party's behavior like this, Su Qin couldn't force it anymore, he also knew that even if he forced the other party again, it would be useless, without Situ Biao's clear approval, the other party would definitely not leak anything.
Looking at the somewhat embarrassed figures of the two surnamed Hu disappearing from the mottled shore, Su Qin looked calm, while Wang Yi was thoughtful.
"Brother Su, looking at this look, Situ Biao hasn't made up his mind yet, or does he intend to make this appearance and ask for a price?"
"Hmph, I'm afraid of both, I'm afraid that the strength we show is both good and bad, the advantage is that Situ Biao doesn't dare to join the Situ family's alliance camp casually, because once he joins, he may be the first to face the Western Xinjiang sword soldiers, but he is not willing to stand on the same front with us, once the alliance between Situ Tai and Situ Yushuang is broken by us, I am afraid that his own fate can also be imagined, I am afraid that what he hopes for most is that we can continue to entangle with each other and never die, which is also the situation he tries his best to promote, but this is just a little difficult。 Su Qin looked at the water shadow and sky in the distance, and the sparkling ripples seemed to be ripples on the jasper jade pool, which was very beautiful.
"Hmph, maybe we should also take some action, or it's not a way to drag it out like this. Wang Yi raised his eyebrows and said.
"Don't worry, I have discussed with His Highness on the way, His Highness's opinion is also to delay it, we also need time to take a breather, not only the rest of the army, but also some of our arrangements in the interior of the empire are not yet in place, and they need to be further improved, as well as the financial aspect, the consumption has been too great for more than a year, and the financial secretary has been shouting bitterly almost every month, plus foreign aid and assistance, I am afraid that the money earned from selling grain can only be supported, and many places still need to digest it, fortunately, we still occupy a lot of geographical advantages, otherwise it will be really troublesome like the Maqihan people。 Su Qin pondered his words, "But His Highness also said that it can't be delayed for too long, it's too long, we're gasping for breath, and the enemy is also recovering, I originally thought that this year would be a disaster year, it doesn't seem to be very similar, this Xiaochun is only partially affected, and there have been many places with a bumper harvest, and Dachun, who can say clearly?"
"Then His Highness's opinion is that we should do it before the harvest of the Great Spring?" Wang Yu was not unclear about this kind of military issue, but he had always been reluctant to ask about things that he should not know, so he did not deliberately understand.
"Well, that means, Your Highness doesn't know if hesitation or can't make up his mind, he hasn't had a clear statement on who to choose as the first target, maybe he wants to wait until after this meeting to determine. ”
Su Qin is also a little wavering on this issue, in his opinion, Situ Biao is undoubtedly the weak in the middle, and he is the most suitable for annihilation and annexation, but Situ Biao's popularity in the Wuhu region is still good, attacking Situ Biao will not only make Situ Biao completely fall to Situ Tai and their alliance, but also make the Situ family and the great nobles of the empire unite with the landlords and nobles of the Five Lakes, which seems to be a little inconsistent with His Royal Highness's strategy of winning over some of the crackers and disintegrating part of the country, followed by Situ Tai, although Situ Tai's military strength is strong, but attacking him will not lose too many points in the hearts of the people, and even win some appreciation, but the disadvantage is that Situ Tai's military strength is not only stronger, but also in the end, the dog jumps over the wall, like Doton and the Japanese are afraid that they will directly intervene by force, and even trigger the dominoes of external forces to intervene, which is probably also the concern of His Royal Highness, and the central department of the empire and Situ Biao may also join at a critical moment, and this battle may become protracted, which is also something that Wufeng does not want to see.
Su Qin and Wang Yi still couldn't figure out what their sovereign had in mind, so what did Li Wufeng think again?
"Yuexin, you say, if we don't enter Beijing, will this Situ Yushuang be so anxious that he can't sleep?" Standing at the gate of the camp and looking into the distance, the majestic city wall could only see a vague black line in the clear weather, and the thick wooden stakes of the gate were held by Wu Feng with great interest, and the rough bark was slightly prickly.
"I'm afraid it's not just her who is anxious in the end, everyone wants to understand the other party's intentions or get some kind of commitment or form some kind of alliance through this meeting, even we are no exception, this meeting is really going to be such a silent miscarriage, do you dare to say that only she will be disappointed?" Lin Yuexin pursed her lips and smiled, and said leisurely, "Things must always have a result, and what should come always comes, so why should we be afraid?"
"Afraid, is there anything else in the world that Li Wufeng is afraid of? I just don't want the entire Tang River Empire to become a ruin in my hands, after all, it is the crystallization of our Tang Clan's civilization for hundreds of years, and it can be obtained at the smallest cost, so why destroy it? Of course, there is no other way. Wu Feng waved his hand, and a stone in his hand suddenly flew out, shooting straight out dozens of meters away, and he laughed loudly.
"But what can you do to crack the current chess game?" Lin Yuexin was not overwhelmed by the other party's arrogant words, and asked with a chuckle.
"Moon heart, people are ambitious, but some people can control their ambitions well, while some people can't see through what is behind their ambitions. What do you say this Situ Biao is thinking now, forming an alliance with his brother, no matter what the final outcome is, the throne has no share of him, and it is even impossible to divide one side as one side of the princes, but don't form an alliance, we really want to destroy Situ Tai, I'm afraid that the next step will be his turn, and he won't see it. What do you say he should do now? Remain neutral, prompt us to fight with Situ Tai, and wait for an opportunity to join the side? Doesn't he have other ideas?" Wu Feng had a mysterious smile on his face.
"Oh, you're saying he has other ideas?" Lin Yuexin raised her beautiful willow eyebrows.
"Yuexin, you seem to have forgotten that there seems to be a pivotal guy between Situ Tai and Situ Biao. "Clap your hands, no sharp edge is extremely happy.
"Cheng Dayou?!" The three words jumped out of Lin Yue's heart.
