A person like Hou Jing is not fearless, but at least he is bold and difficult to be intimidated by others. What can make them feel frightened is inevitably the problem that has touched the root and is beyond the reach of manpower.

At this time, Hou Jing can be said to be the person with the highest attention in the whole world, and his every move is implicated in the changes in the general trend of the world, but under this high attention, there is a fatal problem, that is, the most fundamental thing that people in the world are concerned about is the ownership of the land of Henan, and Hou Jing is just a not very flattering gift.

At present, Hou Jing is skillfully taking advantage of the situation that each party has failed to catch and restrains each other, binding himself to the land of Henan, creating an illusion that where he belongs and where Henan will naturally belong.

But in fact, who Hou Jing takes refuge in and who Henan belongs to are two questions in themselves. Today's Hou Jing is no longer able to effectively control the Henan region, and it is very difficult to even exist on this land independently, so its importance is far less important than it seems on the surface.

In fact, except for Xiao Lao Bodhisattva, who had an intracranial orgasm in the south, who treated Hou Jing as a baby bump, no one in the north treated Hou Jing as a dish. The Western Wei Dynasty didn't believe that Hou Jing would be sincere at all, and as for the Eastern Wei Dynasty, Hou Jing was not important, and it was not important without Hou Jing.

People who bluff are most afraid that others will see through their disguises, Hou Jing is known for his cunning, how can he not know his true situation? Including the attitude of the surrounding forces, he has also weighed and imagined a lot.

The scenario described by Li Tai was undoubtedly one of the worst for Hou Jing.

The contradictions between him and the Eastern Dynasty were the most acute and irreconcilable, and there was no possibility of peaceful coexistence between the two sides. The contradiction between Nanliang and him is the least, and they have great interests with each other, and they are also the easiest to come together.

But if the Western Dynasty rejected his temptation and turned to military intervention to block military cooperation between him and Southern Liang, it would be nothing less than a catastrophe for Hou Jing.

Originally, the probability of such a situation was extremely small, after all, the Western Dynasty was the weakest in the Three Kingdoms regime, and it was not in line with its own interests to fight with the Southern Liang, but only to facilitate the suppression of the rebellion by the Eastern Dynasty.

However, with the great breakthrough of the Western Dynasty in the river bridge and the strategic initiative in Heluo, the bait that Hou Jing threw before became no longer sweet, and even became a tasteless chicken rib that was discarded.

The dispute between Li Tai and Wang Sizheng reflects the contradiction between this line, one has lost patience with the situation in Henan and does not want to continue to invest time and energy, and the other is still greedy for the pie drawn by Hou Jing, hoping to continue to receive the sphere of influence ceded by Hou Jing.

But Hou Jing was unmoved before, because this was itself an internal dispute in the Western Dynasty, and Wang Sizheng had already swallowed most of the bait he had dropped, so how could he say that he would retreat?

Hou Jing naturally knew about Li Tai, a young man from the Western Dynasty who had recently become famous, even if he didn't know him, he already knew his identity after listening to a quarrel between the two.

Although he has made great achievements recently, Hou Jing does not feel that he has the qualifications to question and confront Wang Sizheng, so he only treats the dispute between the two as a joke and does not pay much attention to it.

But when Li Tai pointed the finger at Wang Sizheng for his greed and recklessness, and pointed out that there was another way to deal with it, Hou Jing was really a little panicked, not only because he was afraid of the situation pointed out by Li Tai, but also because the kid in front of him seemed to have more power to speak in the Western Dynasty than he imagined. In other words, this kid said that he might really be able to do it!

For Hou Jing, he is now standing on the edge of a knife, and he can only survive by trying to maintain the balance in all aspects, and any small variable may break this balance, so he needs to maintain it carefully.

In normal times, Hou Jing naturally would not take the threat of a junior in his eyes, and he would be happy to give the other party the most cruel and profound blow, but now that the situation he is in is dangerous, he naturally does not want to blindly make enemies.

Li Tai felt the happiness of no one in his eyes at this moment, and when he became unscrupulous, even Hou Jing, the demon king of the mixed world, did not dare to blow his beard and stare at him casually.

When he heard Hou Jing's question, he rolled his eyelids and said indignantly with a deeply humiliated look: "Hou doesn't know who I am? Hmph, no wonder you are alone and poor, and it is difficult to protect yourself! The general trend of the world is like a rushing stream, and people can't stop it. It is true that you and other townspeople are rebellious for a while, but now the grudges are incompatible, and you have a place for the heroes of the world to stand out! You don't know me, but there are more bones under my feet than your kind! ”

Hou Jing also sneered when he heard this, and looked Li Tai up and down: "I have indeed heard of Li Boshan's name. I thought he should be a well-educated gentleman, but I didn't want to be arrogant and disgusting at a young age, not only humiliating the style, but also affecting your father-in-law Dugu to be able to recognize people as he wished to be laughed at by the masses! ”

Li Tai was not ashamed when he heard this, but laughed again: "I am young and strong, and I am determined to make meritorious contributions, and it is not too late to cultivate virtue for the rest of my life." Hou someone's false name has been written early, but when he is poor, he still breaks his word and loses his virtue, this is the real joke in the world!

Taiyuan Gong was deceived by your deception, but I won't. Henan is not a place of my achievements, it is unprofitable, and the mind is self-explanatory. Within three days, if I don't surrender the city of Changshe, I will come to invite the battle. First rebel in the east, and then evil in the west, once the war starts, the world knows that Hou Jing has no faith, and the masses under your command will also know that you have no intention of going to the north, and you really want to be in the south, and the collapse of your power will not be far away! ”

"Hmph, a gossip!"

After Hou Jing heard this, although the expression on his face did not change significantly, his gaze at Li Tai became even more cold, and then he turned his head to look at Wang Sizheng and said angrily: "I thought that Wang Zhijun knew the general situation and could share a big plan, so I took the time to respond to the appointment today." But since we met, the king has not said a word to me, but this child has made many wild remarks and slandered people's feelings. If the king can't control it, I will control it, don't leave this son to interfere with the plan! ”

As he spoke, he waved his hand hard, and he wanted to capture Li Tai before entering, and it could be seen that he was indeed in a hurry.

Regardless of whether the fake show was really done, of course Wang Sizheng couldn't tolerate Hou Jing arresting Li Tai in front of him, and after seeing this, he stood up, stopped between Hou Jing and Li Tai a few steps in front, looked at Hou Jing and said in a deep voice: "Today's meeting failed to discuss solemnly, it is true that I am not thoughtful enough, and I am really ashamed to come to see Gu Gong in vain."

But this Li Boshan is a general of the army sent by Prime Minister Yuwen to lead the crowd to help, I really can't control it, and please raise your noble hand to the prince of Shanggu, and don't hurt the harmony between the two sides......"

While the two were talking, Li Tai's entourage had already walked into the tent with knives, protecting their own lords in it.

Hearing Wang Sizheng's answer, Hou Jing suddenly paused a little angrily and said angrily: "Am I hurting the harmony between the two parties? It's clear that this vertical man wants to attack me, and Lao Tzu swallowed his anger......"

Hou Jing really felt a little aggrieved, since they met, he didn't say that he was wronged, he was quite tolerant, and at other times, he didn't know how many times he had cleaned up for an arrogant and rude young man like Li Tai.

As they talked to each other, he also found that Li Tai was not just simply arrogant, but the key was that he also knew his hole cards and situation very well, so his attitude was so tough.

This kid is not like Wang Sizheng, he is really not interested in the territory and power of Henan, so he is too lazy to make a false deal with himself, and even wishes that the two sides would fight quickly, so as to add another brilliant feats and fierce deeds to himself.

Hou Jing only understood what it meant to kill the master with a fist at this time, and he had a lot of calculations about the reactions of all parties, but he didn't expect that the Western Dynasty would send such a stunned young man over. It can't be said that he is stunned, after all, people are stepping on his bottom line, that is, they are sure that he will not dare to rashly start a war with the Western Dynasty at this time.

"I had no intention of making friends with the Western Dynasty, but the previous submission of the surrender table shows sincerity, and Prime Minister Yuwen's willingness to tolerate makes me grateful and want to serve. But now I have been attacked and excluded by strong gangsters, so that I can't feel at ease, although I don't want the lives of the people of Henan to suffer, but I will never suffer such humiliation. If this battle is inevitable, I will not back down! It's just ......"

After being silent for a while, Hou Jing's eyes were ruthless, and he said in a deep voice: "Three days is too short, my subordinates can't all evacuate, it takes five days!" Moreover, you can't wait to force me to run away in a clear way, you can only tell the masses that I want to go out of the other realm and invite each other to represent the town! ”

Li Tai heard Hou Jing say so viciously, and thought that this guy was really tenacious and seemed to be a threat, but he didn't expect him to change his words. He naturally didn't have any clear requirements for this, so he turned his head to look at Wang Sizheng.

When Wang Sizheng heard that Hou Jing was willing to evacuate the Changshe, his brows relaxed, and after a little muttering, he nodded and said: "Our army was invited to help, and it is natural for the acting town chief's society. It's just that in order to ensure that the people's livelihood on this side is less harmed by the military, please don't blackmail the people to run away! ”

There is no danger to defend around Changshe, and the only war potential that can be called is the surrounding soldiers. When Hou Jing heard Wang Sizheng's request, he frowned and groaned for a moment, then glanced at Li Tai who was standing on the side, and then slowly nodded and agreed.

After the two sides agreed on the time and steps for the handover of the city, the meeting ended, Hou Jing led his headquarters back to the city, and Wang Sizheng and Li Tai and his entourage also hurried to the direction of Yangzhai.

"If Hou Jing is not coerced this time, Boshan, do you really dare to force Changshe?"

On the way back, Wang Sizheng recalled Li Tai's strong and arrogant appearance before, and couldn't help but ask with a smile.

Li Tai shook his head when he heard this, and said truthfully: "Whether the Changshe gains or loses is not within the discussion of the last general. The last general was ordered to come south, just to ensure that the situation in Henan did not spread and disturb the fighting at Heqiao. Hou Jingruo still did not go to the city, and the last general would only stick to the Luonan Pass and cheer for the Duke of Taiyuan. ”

In official affairs, Li Tai certainly has no obligation to advance and retreat with Wang Sizheng, but in personal relations, the only thing that can be called is the thin donkey that hurts Li Tai's ass. Therefore, in public and private, he will not be too deeply tied to Wang Sizheng. If Hou Jing really wanted to be tough to the end just now, then he would have to punish himself with three cups.

When Wang Sizheng heard this answer, he couldn't help but be a little speechless, and was silent for a while before he said: "The previous needs were urgent, and the words were excited, Boshan, don't mind." ”

"How dare you dare, the last general also has a gaffe, I can't say it sincerely, please forgive me."

When Li Tai heard this, he hurriedly replied with his fists clenched.

Wang Sizheng couldn't help but roll his eyes when he heard these still insincere words, but maybe it was because Li Tai had just helped him get Changshe City, and he was in a good mood, so he said to Li Tai again: "Boshan is a young man who is bold and reckless, which is really enviable. But now Heluo is indeed not a good place to make merit, and it may not be a pity for you to not be able to stay in the follow-up war.

If you don't like to be confined to Kansai, in fact, Jingxiang can also be called a place for young heroes to build things. Your father-in-law, Hanoi, has also accumulated many connections and deeds there, if you can follow this situation and unify the situation in Jingxiang, it will also be a great creation! ”

After Li Tai heard this, his eyes couldn't help but light up, he was indeed a little confused about where to do things next, Wang Sizheng provided him with a good idea.
