Although Li Tai knew that King Yueyang's judgment of the situation was not accurate and was a bit cranky, it was precisely because of these cranky thoughts that he became nervous, sensitive, suspicious, and suspicious of their cooperative relationship.

"At present, the garrison of Jingzhen is not enough to deal with it, and it is really difficult to continue to use it. But since the king has told me about his troubles, I must not turn a blind eye and stand idly by. Although there are no soldiers, I wonder if the king needs a war horse? ”

Li Tai thought about it for a while, and then spoke again.

Liang Shiyan's report on the careful deployment of the local tyrants in their territory also made Li Tai feel the depth of the gap between the north and the south, and wanted to rely on war to carry out violent conquest, whether it was the cost of conquest or the cost of war, it would be very huge, and one unfortunate might be self-defeating and the gains outweighed the losses.

Therefore, the value of a noble surrender faction like King Yueyang is reflected, if it can be properly used, it can greatly eliminate the hostility and resistance of the people in the land of Nanliang, greatly reduce the cost of conquest, and retain the vitality of the region. The old men have all descended, what are you Qiantou who don't even have a three-foot burial place to resist?

King Yueyang's state at this time was obviously a little wrong, and even Li Tai, a close ally who had poured out his heart and lungs, was suspicious and tentative, and it was estimated that he had already imagined in his heart the picture of Liu Zhongli leading his troops back and capturing him and sending it to Jiankang without much effort.

Aside from anything else, it can also be seen that Liu Zhongli is really a very awesome figure in the Southern Dynasty, no wonder he can serve as the leader of the coalition if he can't get Jiankang.

After realizing that Xiao Jing's psychological pressure was too huge, Li Tai cheered him up with practical actions: Don't scare yourself anymore, with my support, we will definitely not collapse this game!

When Xiao Jing heard Li Tai say this, he really smiled again, and then said: "There is already a flat road between Xiangyang and Jiangling, if you have a good horse to help you and form a fine horse, I will be more worry-free, why not be afraid of ......"

Li Tai couldn't help but be happy again after hearing this, it is difficult to say who is right and who is wrong in this complicated interpersonal relationship in your family. No wonder your seventh uncle is not even in a hurry to go to Jiankang, he is going to kill your two brothers if he is holding back, just your attitude of looking at the third uncle and pointing the knife at the seventh uncle, if I were Xiao Laoqi, I would probably have to kill you first!

So Li Tai agreed on a time to allocate 300 Longyou good horses to Xiao Jing for his use. It's not that he is stingy, such a batch of war horses is already very valuable, and he is not so arrogant that he can give away three or five hundred horses casually. And good horses also need to pick people, if even the basic riding and archery skills are not qualified, no matter how many good horses are given to him, it will be in vain.

In order to prevent Xiao Jing from wasting this war horse, Li Tai also thoughtfully provided dozens of horsemen for breeding and training, and asked him if he needed a horseman, and planned to send He Ruodun over for a period of time.

Xiao Jing was also in a good mood after getting this subsidy, and when she heard that there were still supporting personnel provided, the smile on her face suddenly became more cheerful, and she nodded again and again and agreed with a smile, and said that she would definitely treat these personnel more, and she didn't know what kind of existence Li Tai was going to send.

In fact, Xiao Jing doesn't know that his situation is much better now than at the same time in history. Not to mention the huge money and goods resources accumulated during the period of cooperation with Li Tai, his Xiangyang team itself has been purified a lot by Li Tai, and these unstable factors such as Liu Fanggui and Du An brothers have been removed in advance.

However, it is estimated that it is precisely because of this that Xiao Jing feels that there is no one available under his command, although there are many disciples he raises, most of them are ruthless heroes, and there are few generals who can lead the army to fight and fight, so they are so concerned about the generals borrowed by Li Tai.

Li Tainan came to visit, of course, he couldn't just comfort and aid Yueyang Wang Yitong, since this guy took his benefits, he naturally had to give full play to his value.

So when he had finished talking about these things, he spoke again: "Actually, I have been troubled by a troublesome matter recently, but I don't know whether to tell the king or not......

"What else can't be said between me and Boshan? You have helped me a lot, and of course I will do my best to help you have a good time! ”

When King Yue Yang heard this, he patted his chest and assured that he was already impatient to repay Li Tai.

Seeing this, Li Tai was no longer polite, and after a little silence, he opened his mouth and said: "Here's the thing, Hou Jinghuainan is in turmoil, and now he is crossing the river to the south, which will inevitably cause all parties to be suspicious and people uneasy. With Liu Zhongli in front of Lu here, I also adhered to the plan of peace and happiness and border harmony first, and did not enter the army to ask questions.

But now that Liu Zhongli led the army to leave the country and go east, the people in his territory were more panicked and suspicious, and there were not many people who were afraid that I would wave my troops to the south and kill them in vain, so they advanced and surrendered the table first. Alas, I didn't have a plan to wave my troops to the south, so how could I take advantage of your country's distress and fall into the ground? But they can't defend themselves, and they can't refuse the ...... of these people who are suspicious."

"Is that so?"

When King Yue Yang heard this, he immediately frowned, and he groaned for a while before he spoke again: "I don't know if it is inconvenient for you to sue me for the people who offered the watch?" ”

When Li Tai heard this, he laughed dryly, you say it's inconvenient for us? Isn't this nonsense, even if my mouth is looser than the belt of my trousers, but I can turn around and sell you the traitor of Nanliang who took refuge in me?

Seeing that Li Tai was silent again, King Yueyang also knew that he had asked a stupid question, and he was silent for a while before he said: "The family and the country are in turmoil, there are traitors inside, there are rebellious troops outside, and it is also predictable that the soldiers and people will rebel. Boshan, you are willing to sue me first, but you are still defending the relationship between you and me.

If I am where I am, I will never allow such a thing to happen in front of my eyes, since I am guarding this border of the country, whoever dares to cross the border here, I will ask for it! But the evil of my current situation, Boshan, you also know very well, although I have the heart, but I am weak. Even if you know about it, you can only turn a blind eye.

If it is related to love, I am happy for you. Your reputation is far and wide, and even the people of other countries are admired for it. If I stand in the way, I am also wrong. What's more, the land is not my land in the first place, and even if I have the heart to rule, the people of the other realm will not obey my orders. Boshan, if you can recruit you away today, it will also help me thin the strength of my old enemy......"

After saying this, no matter how weird and tricky the logic is, it is estimated that only the last sentence is true. Just seeing that Liu Zhongli scared him like that before he targeted him, Xiao Jing probably hoped that Li Tai would be able to empty Suilu and leave Liu Zhongli with a deserted wasteland.

"Since the king said this, then I am much more relieved."

After Li Tai heard this, he also laughed, looking relieved: "As a Wei general, I am a Wei general, and it is my duty and duty to expand the territory for the country. After hearing that the other side supports the righteous to vote, he should allocate manpower to respond as soon as possible. But because of the deepening of the relationship with the king, I can no longer blindly be impartial in everything, fortunately, the king did not force me to violate the principle, which moved me! ”

He first made a statement full of emotion, and then looked at Yueyang Wang Zhengse and said, "There are things that shouldn't have been said by me. But seeing that the king was worried about state affairs, this was not necessary. Regardless of the size of Hou Jing's rebellion, Liu Zhongli, etc., it is difficult to have any profound impact on the situation in Jianghan. If you can't be morally compatible, how can you control each other? The king is benevolent and brave, and it is advisable to set up the ambition of Shaanxi as soon as possible, instead of sitting back and watching success or failure, and giving up the destiny of heaven to others! ”

"This, this...... How dare I? Alas, I am afraid that the strength is not enough...... The river is broken, and it is in danger, it really shouldn't be, but I can defend Yongfu, I have been, I have ......"

Hearing Li Tai's words, King Yueyang suddenly stood up in shock, and his speech became a little incoherent. Obviously, this is a topic that he has imagined and expected in his heart, but he does not dare to elaborate or think about it.

"Whatever the king has in mind, I hope to be fortunate enough to be able to anticipate it. Even if you can't, I hope that the king can succeed! ”

Seeing that King Yueyang was still not calm enough, his eyes wandered and he didn't dare to look at himself, Li Tai couldn't help but sigh secretly, what a big deal, isn't it just rebellion and self-reliance, I don't want to be in a few Lu Xin's postures every day, I can't sleep!

After some conversation, King Yue Yang left Caiyang City with a heavy heart.

Li Tai turned back after sending the people out of the city, and ordered Liang Shiyan and others to strengthen the investigation of the situation of the local tyrants with Lu and try to communicate.

After all, Xiao Jing has not broken the jar and surrendered directly to the Western Wei Dynasty at the moment, so Li Tai first gave him a psychological foreshadowing, it is these people who have to take refuge in me, but it is not the dominance of the territory that I shout and kill.

And seeing that his people not only do not contradict, but are more happy to see Li Tai encroach on Liu Zhongli's territory and power, then they can also use their people to disintegrate and divide a group of local tyrants who follow the land, and lay the foundation of public opinion in advance to welcome the king.

Li Tai hoped that he could take the lead in proposing a specific plan for the invasion and occupation of the Jianghan region, so that he could have a greater right to speak and dominate. Especially in the crucial two years when the government military system will be created, of course, it is necessary to occupy a more advantageous position.

As if hearing the cry of his heart, not long after he returned from Caiyang City, an envoy from Huazhou Taifu also arrived in Jingzhou, and sent an order to Daxingtai hoping that he could take time to report back and forth to the court at the end of the year.
