Chen Ping still looked at the northwest direction and sighed to himself, which surprised Qin Tong, who knew Chen Ping best.

Although he was dressed sloppily, Chen Ping has always been calm and full of whimsy, and the battles of more than ten years in the Spring and Autumn Period have not been able to stump this man, why is he sighing here in Xiliang?

"It's not that I don't want to kill, it's that I can't kill him, Chen Ping once planned this matter with Mr. Yaoli, although Xu Ji is the leader in the Maoshan Taoist system, it is easy to kill him, but killing him is to force Bai Qi to rebel, and no one wants to see such a situation. ”

Hearing Chen Ping say this, Nangong Guan Yanlang, who had been very excited, shouted:

"I have long seen that Xu Ji is not pleasing to the eye, there are some crooked thoughts in his head, in the eyes of the old minister, His Majesty should order him to enter Beijing, and it is the happiest to give death to a white silk!

In the entire Great Qin Dynasty, Nangong Guanyan, who was superior in age and qualifications, and was not inferior to others in terms of military exploits, dared to call "Ren Tu" "Bai Qi Boy" so blatantly, even the emperor Qin Tong, who sat on the dragon chair, smiled when he saw Bai Qi, not that Qin Tong was afraid of him, but it was really that the "Human Tu" military exploits were too brilliant, and he was the proud protégé of the first emperor Qin Yanglong, so it should be so in terms of politeness.

But Nangong Guan Yan is more than old, he is still old and strong, and he seems to be more and more old, and he is much older than Bai Qi in terms of age, and he is the most trusted general of the first emperor Qin Yanglong, and he is the most senior in terms of resume, although he is slightly inferior in military exploits, but he is also qualified to speak like this. The fastest, the newer, the newest

Qin Tong looked at Nangong Guanyan with a smile and said in a warm voice:

"Don't be excited, the old general, think about this matter in the long run, and listen to Xiangzuo's idea first. ”

Seeing that Emperor Qin Tong had spoken, Nangong Guan Yan, who had never relied on the old and selling the old, sat back on the high chair and waited for Chen Ping's text.

Chen Ping, who didn't know when he had returned to normal, still looked indifferent, put his hands on his sleeves, and continued:

"Bai Qi is a person who understands righteousness, but after all, he has a lifelong friendship with Xu Ji, and he is very protective of his shortcomings, as long as he endures his hands that speak without brains, it is expected that no matter how Xu Ji does not know the current affairs, Bai Qi will not be able to rebel. ”

Speaking of the King of Xiliang, Mr. Yaoli was finally willing to let go of the yellowed ancient book in his hand, rubbed his hands, looked disrespectful to the old man, shook his gray beard and said:

Mr. Chen's words are reasonable, but he keeps looking at other people's faces like this, which is a bit too passive...... The old man is not very nosy in his life, but there are four people who are most unaccustomed to it, one is the old fox of Ouyang, one is the Song Tinghou who forgot his roots, one is the sixth prince who is tyrannical, and the other is white, how do others like to jump and let him jump is, if these four people don't know what to do, the old man, I really have to give up this old life and talk to them. ”

Qin Tong shook his head and smiled bitterly, the bitter smile was the name of Qin Yao in Mr. Yaoli's words, but it was not easy to say anything, and what made him even more unbelievable was that even Mr. Yaoli, who was good at and mud, couldn't hold that tranquility, it seemed that Bai Qi's weight in the hearts of several people was still quite heavy.

"With the words that I want to leave Mr., I can sleep a few more restful nights. ”

There was no sign of Xie Zhu Long's sincere fear, and he wanted to pick up the books on the shelves again and study them carefully, but Chen Ping looked the most indifferent, but he looked at Qin Tong and said with concern:

"Your Majesty doesn't have to be worried, Chen Ping and the queen have the same attitude, Daqin can have no one, but not without the backbone of His Majesty, so I hope that Your Majesty usually focuses on the dragon body, and if you don't like it, the country is still Your Majesty's, who wants to snatch it is not so easy, everyone in the imperial study today will do your best to help Your Majesty keep this society, not for orthodoxy, but also for Li Min. ”

Without waiting for Qin Tong to respond, Chen Ping's attitude changed very quickly, and he continued the slightly heavy topic just now.

"Passive is passive, it's not so serious, Bei Mang thinks about it, it's not that you can't win by relying on Daqin alone, and if you win, it's also a residual victory, so Xiliang is very important and critical, the King of Beihai and the King of Shu don't have to bother to think about it, although the fourth prince also has a big ambition Guo Banbei around him, but the four princes and the five princes are born from the same root as His Majesty, no matter whether the ambition is big or not, it is always the heart of Daqin, otherwise when His Majesty sits on the commander of the three armies, he will mutiny. ”

"King Xiliang is the only king with a different surname in this dynasty, it is much more complicated, the heart of defense is indispensable, always have to take precautions, this matter is very safe to hand over to Mr. Yaoli, and there is the king of Shu staring at the side, and a battle with Beimang, the four kings will listen to Xu Ji at the meeting, whether it is the meaning of Bai Qi or not, probably do not want to be the first bird, and the worst does not want to be the only one, so there will be a three-line salvo, and the Qingzhou cavalry of the king of Beihai is the vanguard's suggestion. ”

After a moment of silence, seeing that several people in the imperial study were listening quite seriously, Chen Ping continued to take action.

"In terms of macro strategy, Xu Ji and Chen Ping have similar views, they are the most secure to take the initiative to attack, as expected, the civil and military forces of the Great Qin Manchu Dynasty will also mean this, the generals can see some clues from the old general of Nangong, the Tibetan knife has been closed for more than four years, and it has not smoothed out the temperament of taking the lead, and taking the initiative to seek war shows that my Great Qin soldiers are not afraid of others, and the Wenchen are headed by Fang Dongling, and the consideration must be the people of Li who want to live and work in peace and contentment, naturally they do not want the war to start in the Central Plains, and it is best to burn in the territory of Beimang. ”

"Chen Ping is ruthless, he didn't think about it so much, just from the perspective of which is better or worse, Daqin and Beimang are all good at attacking, and they are not good at defending, although the defending side has the natural advantage of waiting for work, but my Daqin can't play up his weaknesses and avoid his strengths, after careful study, he has to take the initiative to attack. ”

Qin Tong nodded slowly, Chen Ping's analysis was consistent with his own meaning, of course, as a monarch, there were too many things to consider, but in Chen Ping's words, he probably said it.

"But Chen Ping said that keeping is a policy, but it is also a strategy that has to be used, I don't know if you still remember?"

Frowning slightly, Qin Tong looked puzzled, and Nangong Guanyan, who had always been very arrogant, was confused, and muttered angrily:

"Mr. Chen's analysis, is it defending or attacking? Why does the old minister become more and more confused the more he listens......

Wei Liao, the secretary of the military department, who had been silent, was finally willing to speak, raised his head slightly and stared at Chen Ping, biting every word very clearly, and his tone was extremely slow.

"Does Mr. Chen think that Xiliang will not work? ”

Nodding slightly, Chen Ping's narrow eyes seemed to glow, and he said lightly:

"It's okay if you don't work hard, it's not a troublemaker, I'm afraid of a fire in the backyard, so how to go in a battle with Beimang depends on how King Xiliang chooses. ”

Wei Liao followed closely, "Are you sure that Mr. Chen will rebel?"

"I'm not sure, I have to guard against it, Chen Ping is not used to it, to say something rebellious, if I am the king of Xiliang and have the heart of rebellion, I will also choose to fight between Daqin and Beimang, the opportunity must not be lost, and it will not come again. This is the principle that must be kept. ”

Wei Liao stopped talking, not knowing whether he agreed with Chen Ping's arrogant words or had nothing to say.

At this moment, Mr. Yaoli's eyes were still staring at the ancient book in his hand impartially, and he said lightly:

"The old man interjected, the obscure chess piece buried in the Xiliang border by 'Qin Lan' was disturbed by the old fox of Ouyang Liuluo, he didn't make a move openly, but let him toss it like that, with Xu Ji's ability, it is not difficult to find, for the sake of safety, I can only take it back, the closed inn seems to be really closed, and after a while see if I can fish in troubled waters again." ”

Qin Tong's expression was solemn, the spy placed by Mr. Yaoli on the border of Xiliang was the leader of the "Qinlan" upper-class room, hidden very deeply, although it was slightly abrupt on the bright side, but according to Mr. Yaoli's words, the more obvious it was, the less suspicious it would be, but it was still detected by the vast Ouyang outflow, which was really a pity.

"With life as the priority, the spy can be re-inserted, don't give your life in vain. ”

Mr. Yaoli waved his hand and said:

"It's nothing to be discovered, you should be remembered by others when you're in a high position...... Xu Ji will be pervasive and calculating, and if Bai Qi is going to show his minions because of this, it will save trouble. ”

After the vignette, Qin Tong motioned for Chen Ping to continue, and the latter nodded slightly and said:

"If you put your mind to the bottom of the matter, the gains outweigh the losses, and it is good to have Gu Dacai drag it out, as for Xiliang, you can only retreat as an advance, as long as your majesty is willing to endure the pain and cut love, Chen Ping has a plan. ”

"Oh? ”

Facing Qin Tong and bowing slightly, Chen Ping withdrew his hands from his sleeves, and slowly walked to the neatly arranged sand table in the center of the room.

Several people in the room gathered around the sand table and stared intently at the sand table.

Chen Ping picked up a thin bamboo pole, pointed to the Liangsi and Sanzhou under the jurisdiction of the King of Xiliang, and said lightly:

"There is no shortage of soldiers and horses in Xiliang Sanzhou, the most lacking is grain, grass, vegetables and meat, Prime Minister Fang has gradually improved the Caoyun Post Road over the years, but it has also imperceptibly blocked the transaction between Xiliang and the Central Plains, this is also the place where Xu Ji has been haunted, Bai Qi does not complain, it does not mean that he can hold on, Chen Ping and Prime Minister Fang Cheng discussed this matter, His Majesty should also know what Prime Minister Fang Cheng means, it is better to block than to sparse, but it can not be blocked, the key is the heat, the blockage of Xiliang is too powerful, it must make it break the kettle and sink the boat, do not want to mess up, do not block it, fattening is not so easy to eat。 ”

Pulling back the bamboo pole, he pointed to a long and narrow place called Xikou Road on the Liangmang border, and then drew a circle in the northwest pass of the first Xiongguan on the Liangzhou border, Chen Ping said lightly:

"At this time, the timing is just right, I hope that Your Majesty and Fang Cheng will know, you can't block it anymore, let go appropriately so that Xiliang can see the sincerity, and then Your Majesty will draw up a holy decree again, so that the king of Xiliang will not sit idly by, and the center of gravity will inevitably be placed in Xiliang, and the battle line is not easy to stretch too long, and Beimang will have no time to look eastward, and will not take Youzhou as a breakthrough. ”

Nangong Guanyan couldn't help but ask:

"What if Xiliang hastily copes with it?"
