Section 44 Enlightenment

didn't care that Jiang Feng, an outsider, was present, Cui Shang and Chang Kun shook out all kinds of things inside Bianliang very casually. Pen Γ— fun Γ— Pavilion www. biquge。 ο½‰ο½Žο½†ο½

This is not a secret, there are not many secrets in Bianliang City, go into the streets and alleys to listen to the main store of the Wazigoulan wine shop, you can find that the people in the market like to listen to the stories of storytellers, like to talk about the shortcomings of parents, while businessmen are more concerned about the rise and fall of prices and taxes in various places, and for these people in the military camp and the families of their children, the news of the Chongzheng Yuan and the political hall and the subordinate ministries is undoubtedly the content that they are most concerned about.

Of course, in a sense, this is only superficial, but the deeper things inside are always hidden under these superficial things.

In every place, the salt merchants are a force that cannot be ignored, and the salt administration in every place is monopolized by them, they either originate from local clans, or they have strong backers in the Korean and Chinese armies, and the resources they can use are not inferior to any group.

Therefore, I knew that sending troops to Puzhou would be an extremely hasty and risky move, and might even put Bianliang in danger, but there were people who waved their flags and shouted for it, and they were all people with considerable influence.

"Brother Cui, in your opinion, if you want to promote Liang Cai's first battle, how should you start?" Jiang Feng didn't have much heart to discuss Bianliang's strategic plan, he was more concerned about how to get Gu Shi out of the crisis, as Cui Shang said, the vitality of Gu Shi Army lies in the fact that only when Cai Zhou has no time to come to Gu Shi to win a period of respite for Gu Shi Army and survive this hurdle.

"Erlang, I'm afraid this is not a question of how you start, San Lang also said before, what do you have that can make others tempted? Is there anything more tempting than the Puzhou Yanchi Salt Farm?" Cui Shang asked rhetorically.

Jiang Feng shook his head.

"Since there is none, then the possibility of making Liang Cai fight can only be that the adults in the court themselves want this battle, and you Gushi may be able to provide them with some unexpected help in this battle, what you need to do now is to let those adults know that your Gushi Army has the power to fight, and has the ability to help Liang Jun contain the Caizhou Army, but as far as I know, I am afraid that the current strength of your Gushi Army is difficult for those adults to see." Cui Shang smiled, "What Gushi needs now is time, you can't afford to wait, but if you can't convince the adults of the Chongzheng Yuan and the military leaders of the various armies that you Gushi Army has this strength, maybe you will miss this opportunity, maybe the Caizhou Army didn't wait for you to return to Gushi, so they planted the Yuan family's banner at the head of Gushi City." ”

Yixi's words were straightforward and unceremonious, but Jiang Feng knew that this was the closest possible thing to reality.

According to his observations from Ye * County, I am afraid that the Liang army is indeed preparing for war, and it is indeed an attempt to have a war.

After all, the ant thieves swept through Caizhou, causing huge damage to the Yuan family, and the Yuan family had just taken Gwangju, and even left a tail like Gushi, and at the same time, the ant thieves are now wreaking havoc in Yingbo Shou Sanzhou, so that Huaibei is too busy to take care of himself.

That is to say, two of the enemies around Liangdi are no longer able to pose a threat to Liangdi, which greatly reduces the threat pressure of Liangdi, and Guanzhong and Nanyang are not strong in battle now, and it is unlikely that they will threaten Liangdi in a relatively short period of time, so in the case of such a rare opportunity, Bianliangkong has an army of 200,000 but does not move, then Zhu Yun and his subordinates are really too weak.

The key is in which direction to attack.

According to Cui Shang and Chang Kun, there should be two directions, one is Puzhou and the other is Caizhou.

The benefits of taking Puzhou are great, but the risks are greater, there are salt merchants and a group of military leaders waving their flags and shouting, although it seems to be very prestigious, but it may also be opposed by those who cannot benefit, and the same Chongzheng Yuan and the political affairs hall are not eating rice, and they can see the danger here, this battle Many people want to fight, but they may not dare to fight, according to Jiang Feng's judgment, if you really want to fight with Hedong, or a big war for such an important area as Puzhou, it will definitely evolve into a protracted war, with the current scale of war mobilization in Liangdi, I am afraid it is far from enough。

Jiang Feng's thinking gradually became clear, and Cui Shang and Chang Kun had actually seen that Bianliang was unlikely to promote a war against Puzhou, so he reminded himself in disguise that what he had to do was not to judge which direction he would fight, but to urge Bianliang to launch this battle as soon as possible, and at the same time, to make Bianliang agree that the strength of the Gushi Army was enough to tie up the Caizhou Army, only in this way could he really affect this war and win some opportunities for the Gushi Army.

After thinking about this clearly, Jiang Feng also hugged his fists and saluted, "Brother Cui, Brother Chang, a certain has been taught, but one guest is not bothered by the two masters, and a certain person also wants to ask, who is the most hostile to the Yuan family in the court?"

Cui Shang and Chang Kun looked at each other in surprise, and they both saw a trace of surprise and praise in each other's eyes, Jiang Feng was able to understand the mystery so cleanly, and directly asked who could play a role in promoting Liang Cai's battle, which was enough to show that the other party was not unprepared.

Cui Shang said slowly: "Of course it's General Li Gu." ”

"Li Gu?" Jiang Feng hadn't heard of this person, so he asked.

"The commander of the Tianxing Army, the grandson of General Moyun Li Han. Cui Shang explained word by word: "General Mo Yun is a native of Xiangcheng, Chenzhou, and the Li family is also a wealthy family in Xiangcheng, but it is a pity that Xiangcheng has become the territory of the Yuan family now." ”

Three years ago, the first battle of Chenzhou, the Caizhou army took away the three counties of South Chenzhou from the hands of the Liang army, including the southernmost Xiangcheng, I didn't expect Li Hanzhi to be a Xiangcheng person, presumably his family is also a wealthy family in Xiangcheng, and now it is naturally swept out of the Yuan family, and it is estimated that the Xiangcheng He family, who is now serving the Yuan family, also has a lot of profits, you must know that Xiangcheng is a famous granary, Xiangcheng changed hands, and all the Li family was naturally taken over.

As soon as Cui Shang said this, Jiang Feng immediately understood.

This Li Moyun Li Hanzhi is famous, is a well-known tyrannical figure in the late Tang Dynasty, he is ruthless and cruel, has served Zhuge Shuang, Li Keyong, during his stationing in Zezhou, he has killed and eaten up all the people and beasts within a radius of 100 miles.

After serving Zhu Wen, he made great contributions to Bianliang to win Luzhou, and even Zhu Wen praised it, but unfortunately his fate was not good, and he was seriously ill after taking Luzhou for two days, it seems that although Li Hanzhi has been dead for decades, his Li family is also a family in the Bianliang army, otherwise how could Li Gu be the commander of the Tianxing Army.

It just so happened that this senior brother of Ju Rui was also a member of the Tianxing Army, so he could take this opportunity to take this line.
