"What do I think?" Shi Yu glanced at this low-key and forbearant character among the four major armies under his command, low-key forbearance does not mean that he has no ambitions, the other party came so quickly, I am afraid that he already had an idea, or he had already taken another line, "Qiming, did someone find you? Is it Da Liang, or Huai You? Needless to say, I know it in my heart." Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Shi Yu directly excluded Caizhou, Daliang was because it was close to Lu Qiming, and Huaiyou, everyone could see that Huaiyou was thriving.

Lu Qiming's heart was beating wildly, although he subconsciously felt that Shi Yu might be telling the truth, but he didn't dare to take this risk easily, even if his army had begun to enter the city, but the residual power of the Lord still made him dare not make a mistake easily.

Seeing that Lu Qiming didn't squeak, Shi Xiao smiled slightly, "Qiming, don't you think it's good to answer this question?"

"No, Lord Jiedu, there is nothing difficult to answer. Lu Qiming finally responded positively, "In fact, since the situation in Yanyun has been unstable, I have been thinking about this problem, what will our Xuzhou become next, you should see the displaced people and disaster victims rolling south from the north, we in Xuzhou can't afford it at all, let alone Fengxian and Peixian, look at the beams, they are difficult to protect themselves, Huaiyou has looked for me, I didn't make a clear statement, I only said that it depends on the opinions of the Jiedu envoys." ”

"See my opinion?" Seeing Lu Qiming frankly admit that Huai You had approached him, Shi Yu's heart also trembled, indeed, for the time being, Da Liang is powerless, even if he wants to intervene in Xuzhou's affairs, he is powerless, and although Caizhou swallowed Yingbo Erzhou's power has increased greatly, but because this step is too big, the battle line is tense all of a sudden, and it is indeed too difficult for them to stretch their hands to Xuzhou again, only Huaiyou.

"I talked to the Huaiyoulai people and asked them what their intentions were. Lu Qiming didn't have too much emotion in his words, and said lightly: "Huaiyou can't tolerate Xuzhou falling into the hands of the Yuan family, and any other results are acceptable, but it is precisely the Yuan family that has taken the two states of Yingbo, and as long as the Yuan family is given another half a year buffer time, Xuzhou will fall into the hands of the Yuan family, and they also made it clear that among our Xuzhou armies, there are already people who have secretly communicated with the Yuan family in Caizhou, and there are also people who have eyebrows with the big beams, they can tolerate Xuzhou alone, and they can also tolerate Xuzhou for the Liang to gain, but they can't let the Yuan family step into Xuzhou." ”

"Oh?" Shi Yu thought about it, the hidden meaning here is that Huaiyou doesn't have too much malice towards himself, but he doesn't want Xuzhou to be Yuan Yuan's gains?"

"My lord, I think it's still six or seven points. Lu Qiming pondered for a moment, "Caizhou and Huaiyou have been rivals from the beginning, otherwise Huaiyou would not have intervened when Caizhou entered Yingzhou, and it is obvious that if Huaiyou wants to stalemate with Li Yu more on the Huainan side, he can easily get more, such as Li Yu in Hechu Erzhou can be handed over to Huaiyou, but Jiang Feng quickly sent troops to Xuzhou after learning that Yuan attacked Bozhou, no matter how you look at it, this is not a good time." ”

Shi Yu nodded slightly.

This is reasonable, Huainan is much richer than Huaibei, but the geographical location of Xuzhou is much more important than that of Chuzhou, Huaiyou can temporarily not be with Chuzhou, but it cannot tolerate Caizhou's involvement in Xuzhou, which also shows Huaiyou's ambition.

"Of course, it is not necessarily true to say that Huaiyou himself has no other thoughts, they do not allow the Yuan family to intervene in Xuzhou, because they think that Xuzhou is a springboard for them to set foot in the Central Plains in the future, once they are obtained by Caizhou, they will not be able to go north to the Central Plains to compete for power. ”

Lu Qiming knew that Shi Yu's mentality at this time was very complicated, and he was unwilling to overstimulate the other party, but when the other party asked him, he couldn't help but answer, and if he blindly avoided it, it might make the other party feel that he had a problem.

"Yes, go north to compete for the Central Plains, hehe, heroes are teenagers, it's time for us old guys to withdraw from the stage of history. ”

Shi Yu's tone was a little more sour and lonely, he knew that he was not the master of pioneering, and he thought that he could be safe and stable in this position for a lifetime, so he also hollowed out his mind to form a balance within the entire probation army, but he didn't expect this balance to be broken by the ant thief, and then there was covetousness from the surrounding neighbors, and it all came so quickly.

"My lord!" Lu Qiming also sighed with some emotion.

"Okay, Qiming, I see. Shi Yu is not a person who can afford to let go, knowing that he can't sit still in this position in the festival, so how to sell this position at the best price, that is the most important thing, "Huaiyou, can someone follow you?"

Lu Qiming shook his head, "My lord, I am still in the probation army, but I believe that if the Lord reveals his willingness to meet with them, they will soon come to the door, and I am afraid that there are already people in Xuzhou City." ”

"Hmm, I'm afraid it's not just Huaiyou who has someone, Caizhou, Daliang, where is no one?" Shi Yuruo nodded and smiled meaningfully, "Look." ”

The sentence "Look" is meaningful, and Lu Qiming also understands a lot.

Yang Heng entered Xuzhou City with the tail of Lu Qiming's army.

Lu Qiming didn't lie, it was true that when he went south, no one in Huaiyou had followed, but Yang Heng knew that the opportunity had come when he learned that Lu Qiming was recruited to go south to Xuzhou, so he greeted Zhuang Yongsheng and chased after him non-stop, and finally caught his tail when he entered the city.

With the talisman given to him by Zhuang Yongsheng, he could easily follow Lu Qiming's troops into the city.

After learning about Shi Yu's change of mentality from Lu Qiming, Yang Heng immediately contacted the people in Wuwentang in Xuzhou City, but he didn't expect that Su Tie had also entered the city.

Sitting on the window seat on the second floor, watching Shang Yunxi's army rush in from the south gate, Yang Heng and Su Tie both looked a little unpleasant.

Lu Qiming's army had just entered the city last night, and Shang Yunxi's army had rushed back this morning, and no one could stop Shang Yunxi's army from entering the city.

The streets of Xuzhou City are much wider than the streets of Huaiyou Prefectures, especially the cross street of the east, west, north and south city gates are far away from each other, and they are all paved with bluestone slabs, and there are many shops along the line, teahouses and restaurants, and hostels in the south, all of which are readily available, and the cornices of two or three floors hang on the corners, and the exquisite tile houses can be seen everywhere, which is far from being comparable with other ordinary states and counties.

When Yang Heng contacted the cycads, he caught up with Shang Yunxi's army and entered the city from the south gate.

Looking at the tired but still neat probation army entering the city, Su Tie's eyes were gloomy and infiltrating, and Yang Heng's face changed.

"Shi Yu deliberately did this, deliberately let Shang Yunxi's army enter the city, so as to seek balance in the city again, he wanted to buy himself at a good price!" Yang Heng almost squeezed out these words from between his teeth: "He asked Lu Qiming to bring us Huaiyou, and this is the idea!"

Su Tie's eyes still fell on the probation army who entered the city, and they specially chose this place for this purpose, which is just not far from the south gate of the urn city, and can be seen at a glance.

"It's normal, Shi Yu can survive for so many years in this group of guys who eat people and don't vomit bones, and he can't do it without any means, this is the one with the highest price, but in fact he is still inclined to us. Su Tie's face was pale, but he still maintained a bit of calm and rationality in his words.

"Oh, why did your lord say that?" Yang Heng was a little puzzled.

"There are many factions within Daliang, people's hearts are fluctuating, and the possibility of really being able to send troops to intervene in Xuzhou is very small, but the Yuan clan in Caizhou is very ambitious, the question is, how many things can it take out now? If you want money or money, and if you want food or not, you can't play in Yingbo and Erzhou, and you still come to take care of Xuzhou? I'm afraid that as soon as Shi Yu stretches out his hand to them, he can scare them enough, except for a little army, what else does Caizhou have? But the army also has to rely on money, silver and food to maintain, as long as the Yuan family can't get the financial and tax rights of Xuzhou, if the Yuan family dares to stay in Xuzhou, it can only be dragged to death. ”

The cycad's words were full of pride, "Only we Huaiyou, now we have grain from Shouzhou, Luzhou and Haozhou, we have Shouzhou porcelain kilns, and Hu merchants and Sogdian merchants are scrambling to provide us with money and silver support, why should Daliang and Yuan fight with us?"

Yang Heng nodded again and again, like seeing the sun through the clouds.

"Besides, there is a precedent of Yang Pu here, which is undoubtedly the most exciting example for Shi Xu, we have strictly fulfilled our promise in that case, and let Yang Pu's family go to Chang'an with a huge family property, can't Shi Yu see it? Can he believe that Da Liang and the Yuan family are not moved when they see his big property?" Su Tie smiled proudly: "This is the credibility of our Huaiyou, and the Qin and Twilight of the Yuan clan in Caizhou, and the internal strife within Da Liang, it is impossible for Shi Yu to cooperate with them, and Shi Yu's choice can only be us." ”

Yang Heng high-fived and pleased, "What the adults said is very good, so that a certain mouth is suddenly opened, but this time Shang Yunxi's army enters Xu, what should we do?"

"Don't worry, it's come to this point, no one can help anyone when estimating the current situation in Xuzhou City, although Shang Yunxi's troops are superior, but Lu Qiming's 10,000 army is not vegetarian, if you really want to fight in the city, it can only be a disaster, so no one wants to do this, and then, Fu Li, I estimate that I will follow up urgently, Lu Qiming's army has already controlled the East Gate, as long as we can keep the East Gate not lost, then we will be invincible." ”

The eyes of the cycads have been following the probation army in the city.

He found that although this army came quickly, almost all of them came lightly, heavy armor was rare, and morale was not high, especially almost no baggage and equipment, which meant that Shang Yunxi's troops suffered a lot of losses in the First Battle of Fuli, and I am afraid that they did not even have time to bring magic weapons, or they suffered heavy losses in that battle.
