Section 69 Crisis looms

Chen Shi gave a detailed account of the intelligence and analysis he had, and believed that the affairs of Southern Chenzhou were unlikely to allow such vigorous negotiations between Caizhou and Daliang, and he believed that this was a cover for the negotiations on other matters between Daliang and Caizhou.

Cui Shang agrees with Chen Shi's analysis.

Caizhou and Daliang have ceased war, and the current attitude within Daliang has become more and more reluctant to take the initiative to provoke a war, which is mainly related to the fact that Zhu Yun, the king of Liang, constantly suppressed the expansion of the military leaders under his command.

Daliang has the most powerful military force in Middle-earth at present, and in terms of the surrounding forces alone, no matter which one it is, it is difficult to pose too much threat to Daliang if it wants to challenge it alone, or even if the two join forces, even if Hedong and Taining Army join forces.

The Taining Army did not perform well in the First World War last year, and because of the severe drought and grain failure in the areas under the jurisdiction of the Taining Army this year, the Taining Army was already in financial difficulties, and this year's situation is even more embarrassing, and it can be said that it is basically unable to start a war again.

In addition to Hedong, there is no force around Daliang that can challenge it, and Hedong alone does not dare to easily provoke a war, so the contradictions within Daliang are highlighted.

In the case of the reduction of external threats, the internal contradictions of Daliang are highlighted, and Caizhou is also aware of this, so he decisively takes the initiative to seek reconciliation with Daliang, which will undoubtedly be recognized by Zhu Yun, even if the military may not be willing.

Can't help but stand up, Cui Shang began to pace.

The complexity inside the girder is difficult for even Cui Shang, who has lived in the girder for decades, to grasp, and there are too many factors that can affect the direction of the girder.

Zhu Yun has never been too strong, but he can always control the situation at critical moments.

The strength of the leaders of the Great Liang Army is undoubtedly the strongest, but this requires them to have the same attitude, and this situation is basically impossible.

The infiltration of merchant and local gentry influence has divided the wealthy families dominated by the military chiefs into several pieces, and the interests can never be agreed upon.

They can only join forces when they encounter an external threat, and once the external threat disappears, then the internal contradictions will change the situation abruptly.

Caizhou's move is undoubtedly planned, and it is conceivable that once the understanding of the beam is obtained, then Caizhou can go east without distraction, which should be the purpose of Caizhou.

Cui Shang does not think that Caizhou is still fighting with Huaiyou, which is undoubtedly for both sides, for Caizhou, the Huaibei Shijia, who has exposed the essence of foreign strength and middle cadres, is the best object for its hard bite.

"I know, Xiaolang, well done, it's important to learn to analyze and judge, and be good at finding problems from those details that we are ordinary and inadvertent. ”

Cui Shang is indeed very satisfied with Chen Shi's performance, and he can get rid of the cover of Southern Chenzhou's affairs and find suspicious points, which is not easy for a young man who has just grown up.

Cui Shang was not very optimistic about Chen Shi before, after all, Chen Shi was too young, even if Huaiyou was very short of manpower now, but there was no doubt about how important it was to collect information in Bianjing, so he didn't recognize Chen Shi very much, but this time Chen Shi's performance gave him a lot of improvement.

After Chen Shi left, Cui Shang began to fall into deep thought.

Although this time in Bianjing, Caizhou's affairs did not belong to the previous considerations, but Caizhou has always been Huaiyou's biggest enemy, and the change in Daliang's attitude is probably also targeted.

Choi Shang had to take this into account.

Maybe Da Liang's attitude towards Huai You has changed, when Jiang Feng still has only one county, Da Liang may be contemptuous, when Jiang Feng takes Guanghu Erzhou in one fell swoop, Da Liang should be the most happy to see, and also thinks that Jiang Feng should be the most suitable ally, but when Jiang Feng takes Shouzhou, what is Da Liang's attitude?

Cui Shang felt that I was afraid that the military leaders from Zhu Yun to Daliang should have complicated feelings and attitudes now.

On the surface, Huaiyou does not pose any threat to the girder, especially Huaiyou's blade is pointing to the south of the Yangtze River in the east, but what if Huaiyou continues to succeed in this way?

Will this force, which is expanding faster than anyone imagined, still be the best ally of the Great Liang?

Isn't it more appropriate to arrange for an opponent who can restrain the balance and give him eye medicine?

This is probably the complex mentality of the current beam.

It is certainly inappropriate to weaken Huaiyou's support for Caizhou, the former enemy, but if Huaiyou is indulged without restrictions, I am afraid there are hidden dangers, which need to be grasped to a certain extent.

Cui Shang felt that he had basically grasped the current mentality of the big beam.

For the Great Liang, internal problems prevent it from opening up to the outside world, but it will never allow a more powerful feudal lord to emerge around it.

A Hedong is enough, confined to the river and the danger of mountains and rivers on the surface of the Jin, the Liang is helpless against the Great Jin, but if there is a possibility of a strong feudal clan that can be compared to the Great Jin around it, this may be the end of the Great Liang, so this must not be allowed, as long as there are such signs, we must find a way to strangle it.

Taining Army and Huaibei Shijia have their own shortcomings that cannot be made up, and they are not in the eyes of Daliang.

For example, the Taining Army is purely a military intervention in politics, and the civilian manpower is weak, and it is simply unable to manage the strength that can compete with the Great Liang.

Huaibei is a strong outsider, especially the Huaibei gentry have long been dissatisfied with the rule of the Shi family, an ant thief turned it upside down, and the beam does not think that it can threaten the beam, if it is not for the beam to be confined to internal problems, it can have been destroyed in one drum, in the eyes of the beam, it is even easier to solve Huaibei than to solve the Taining army.

The Nanyang brothers in the south are in control of each other, and it is difficult to become a big weapon; in the west, the corpses in Guanzhong are still alive, and the bones are dry in the mounds.

Only the vitality shown by Caizhou is what Daliang fears the most, so Daliang must spare no effort to suppress Caizhou.

However, Caizhou's tenacity made Daliang realize that if he wanted to completely solve Caizhou, he might not be able to do it, or that Daliang would pay too much price.

Then it can only restrict the development of Caizhou, so it will support Huzhou to contain Caizhou, and even support Nanyang Liu Xuan to attack Caizhou.

Unexpectedly, this strategy was destroyed by Huzhou for its own interests, and now the situation has been completed, since Caizhou is powerless to control, it can only take squeezing means to let it develop to the east, reduce the pressure on the beam, and win time.

However, once Caizhou succeeds in the east, its power is bound to increase greatly, so it is also necessary to support Huzhou (Huaiyou) to contain Caizhou.

But Huzhou took the core place of Huainan with lightning speed, and Shouzhou made Daliang feel a little apprehensive in his heart.

From Huzhou to Huaiyou, Jiang Feng's strength has swelled rapidly, although from the current point of view, it is not clear what kind of harm Huaiyou will bring to Daliang, and it can even form a squeeze and contain Caizhou, but in the long run, especially if Huaiyou benefits from the future Wudi Rebellion, then Huaiyou's strength will swell to a worrying point.

Therefore, in the long run, it is also necessary to support Caizhou to contain Huaiyou.

This is probably the mentality and strategy of the current beam, since it cannot be suppressed and contained, then simply support two opponents who are inseparable at the same time to contain each other, so that the beam can control its hands in it, and support the weak and suppress the strong.

After figuring this out, Cui Shang had to relax a little in his heart.

At least at present, Huaiyou and Daliang do not border, and the negotiations between Caizhou and Daliang have entered a substantive stage, after a year's rest and recovery, and the situation in Huaibei is so bad, Cui Shang predicts that Caizhou's offensive against Huaibei may soon be launched, maybe Caizhou has even reached a plan with Daliang to carve up Huaibei?

Huaibei Wuzhou, Yingbo Xu Sihai, if Liang Ken handed over the westernmost Yingbo two states to Caizhou, Caizhou's strength will immediately go to a big step, and then maybe Daliang can force Caizhou to cross Huai to the south to plot Huai right.

Thinking of this, Cui Shang couldn't help but sweat coldly.

If this is the case, the negotiations between Daliang and Caizhou should have come to an end, and even maybe the negotiation of Nanchenzhou is not a cover, if Daliang can take the three states of Xu Sihai, even if it is a Xuzhou, even if Nanchenzhou is handed over to Caizhou?

Picking up the cold tea on the warped table, Cui Shang drank it in one gulp and calmed down his state of mind.

This kind of alliance between Daliang and Caizhou cannot be called an alliance at present, at most it is a temporary cooperation.

Daliang has the intention of driving the tiger and devouring the wolf, Caizhou will not fail to see it, but Caizhou also needs this opportunity to strengthen himself.

When you really strengthen yourself, you will have the initiative in your own hands, and whether you listen to the big beam or not will depend on the situation, which is probably the reason why Caizhou is now happy to agree.

Cai Zhou had this thought, and Cui Shang didn't believe that so many of Daliang's strategists would not be able to see it.

For Da Liang, Caizhou and Huaiyou's endless fight is what they are most happy to see, so if he raises the issue of negotiating with Da Liang at this time, Da Liang is afraid that he is willing to support it.

In the final analysis, it still depends on its own strength, Daliang wants Caizhou and Huaiyou to kill each other, Huaiyou may not have this will, Caizhou wants to cross Huaishui and go south, then it also needs to assess whether it can get what it wants in this battle.

Time is pressing, and Cui Shang also knows that he needs to act immediately, and the problem of the Heshuo army must be solved immediately.

As for recruiting and absorbing talents from the Central Plains, it is not in a hurry, you can slowly figure it out, and Cui Shang already has some ideas on this issue.

In addition, Cui Shang also believes that there may still be different opinions within Daliang on supporting Caizhou to contain and contain Huaiyou.

Caizhou became independent from Daliang, and even became a mouthful of anti-Liang, Cui Shang believes that from an emotional point of view, many high-level executives of Daliang are still hostile to Caizhou Yuan.

Even if it is through this grand strategy of supporting Caizhou to contain Huaiyou, with the internal execution of Daliang, it may not be able to be implemented quickly, and there will be no fewer entanglements.
