When various conflicts broke out here in the Western Wei Dynasty for military power, the monarchs and ministers of Jiangling in the Southern Liang Dynasty did nothing.

Of course, it's not that he doesn't do nothing, all kinds of daily social gatherings are as usual, and the government affairs are also going on normally, and Emperor Xiao Yi of Liang is busy talking about "Lao Tzu" again, and he is still talking about a very appropriate issue "Blessing and Misfortune". However, for the military operation in the north, there has been almost no targeted preparation and response.

The Southern Liang monarchs and ministers were not unaware of the movements of the Wei army and had no sense of danger, Jiangling and Chubei interacted frequently, and this kind of exploration of each other's situation was mutual, so when Yuwen Hu led his men and horses to arrive in Chubei, the news was also transmitted back to Jiangling soon after.

When this news came back, instead of becoming vigilant and panicked, the Jiangling monarchs were faintly relieved.

Because after Li Tai took Hefei, he formed a situation of encirclement on Jiangling on three sides, and the situation in Jiangling became very tense, and he was worried that the northern side would attack at any time.

But now Li Tai was appointed by the Western Wei court as the Guandong Dao Daxingtai, and sent men and horses from its country to support the north, in the eyes of the Jiangling monarchs, it is estimated that the Western Wei and the Northern Qi all-out war performance, so happy and arrogant Li Boshan finally provoked a strong opponent because of his belligerence, with his military strength has been difficult to resist the attack of the Northern Qi, so it is necessary to mobilize reinforcements from the country.

Based on this understanding, the Jiangling monarchs and ministers breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts. Since the two northern countries are at war, their Gangneung regime will naturally have a chance to breathe. Moreover, the national strength of the Western Wei Dynasty was not as good as that of the Northern Qi Dynasty, and after Li Boshan, the Northern Tiger, was crippled by the Northern Qi, they even had a chance to calmly recover the lost territory!

Therefore, Emperor Xiao Yi of Liang convened the ministers to explain the metaphysics, not to let the ministers see some and calm down to meet the tragic fate, but to open a wave of ridicule against the happy and sad Li Boshan: Misfortune and blessing are relied on, blessing and misfortune are lurking, arrogant and domineering at a young age, and he is invincible, and he is finally going to eat the fruits of his own life and waste his previous achievements!

What best reflects the change in the mentality of the Southern Liang monarchs and ministers is the treatment received by Li Quan, the envoy of the Northern Liang Dynasty, and his entourage in Jiangling.

Li Quan and his entourage have not left Jiangling since they came to Jiangling a few months ago, and although they have experienced the assassination of the envoys of the Northern Qi Dynasty, they are still sought after and entertained by the Jiangling Shiliu.

Especially when the news of Li Boshan's capture of Hefei had just reached Jiangling, the Jiangling timers flocked to see him, and it was even more difficult to see Li Lian than to see His Majesty the Emperor.

Even Emperor Xiao Yi sent the crown prince to visit, and apologized for the lax guards in the city so that the Northern Qi envoys escaped from the city.

However, after the news came that Yuwen Hu led the army to support the northern part of the country, the treatment of Li Lian suddenly changed sharply, and there were also people who went to visit, but the attitude was not as respectful and enthusiastic as before, but with a questioning tone, he asked whether their respective businesses in the north would be affected by the war.

Li Quan and his entourage originally lived in the house of Wang Bao, the left servant of Shangshu, Wang Bao felt that Li Tuo had been in his house for a long time and refused to go for a long time, so that there were many visitors and noisy in his house, so he took this opportunity to invite Li Tuo to leave his home.

Li Lian and the others could only return to the Buddhist temple in the city to borrow, and soon disappeared from the social field in Gangneung City and became unpopular.

Probably because the north was also involved in the war, the passage of people and goods from the Shicheng side was also closed, so that the Gangneung side could no longer get the news from the north as easily as before. And when they learned of the new change in the situation, it was the Western Wei men who were supposed to reinforce Li Boshan who were supposed to go south directly to Wuning!

After learning about this, Emperor Xiao Yi of Liang was also quite surprised in his heart, and deliberately suspended the lecture for a day, and went north to carefully investigate the situation. The news reported by the scouts was that the newly arrived Wei army had taken over the defense of Wuning, and the original Wei army of Liang Shiyan had been expelled to the Jingshan Mountains and camped down. At the same time, the men and horses of Xiangyang also came with the south.

This situation also made the people in Jiangling feel a little nervous, but the situation they knew before was just a suspicious strategy, the Western Wei Dynasty and the North

Is it true that Qi started a war and used it to cover up the south to attack Jiangling?

But Emperor Xiao Yi of Liang made his own judgment after thinking about it a little, and told everyone with a smile: "It seems that the situation of the Qiang thieves is a little worse than what I have seen before, not only do they have to fight with strong enemies externally, but there are also serious disputes internally!

Although Li Boshan is known for being strong, but after all, he is just a minister of the Qiang court, and his people rashly attacked Hefei this time, thinking that they made their own ideas and did not get the instructions of their country. The Lord of Qi is also young and strong, and will inevitably use this to rebuke the Wei State and retaliate with heavy troops.

In the past, although his countrymen were jealous and helpless, but now he provokes strong enemies for the country and is trapped in the army. That's why that strong disciple Yuwen Hunan came to the name of the reinforcement, but in fact, it was just to seize the power of Li Boshan's military government!"

With such twists and turns, it is rare for Xiao Yi to be able to see through the hidden situation at a glance, and the real situation is not far from what he said casually. And after hearing this explanation, his ministers couldn't help but suddenly realize, but some people still didn't feel at ease and said, "Now Yueyang is coming with the Qiang people, do you want to be unfavorable to me?"

Speaking of Xiao Jing's nephew, Xiao Yi sneered: "Of course, this thief hates me and wants to die, but he can't support himself, so he needs to rely on the Qiang country. Li Boshan used to be good friends, but now he has lost power, of course, he has to do his best to maintain protection, and even has a plan to incite the Qiang army to attack us. But now that the Wei State has strong enemies to provoke outside, and there are fierce ministers to be punished internally, it can be said that it is troubled internally and externally, so how can they complain against me at this time?"

After everyone heard this, they all nodded again and again, and said straight Your Majesty is wise, and watching the enemy's situation is as clear as watching the fire.

Since these little things are not to be disturbed, then the next thing is to continue to play music and dance, no, the Jiangling monarchs and ministers have long since departed from this low-level interest, but continue to hold philosophical seminars to discuss the principle of relying on good and evil.

This self-deception lasted until late October, when the Western Wei general Li Mu led his people south after settling the power dispute in Wuning, and thousands of elite horsemen bypassed Jiangling City and headed straight to Jiangjin, the ferry port south of Jiangling City. The roaring sound of horses' hooves went around the city, and all the soldiers and people in the city were frightened beyond their control.

Jiangling City is located on the north bank of the Yangtze River, and the south of the city is Jiangjin, an important ferry port on the Yangtze River, and there is a sandbar in the river, and there is a Jiangjin Shu on it, and Jiangjin Shu is Matou to the south.

After Li Musuo led the elite cavalry to the south of Jiangling City, he did not stop, but rushed straight towards Jiangjin to kill. At this time, there were many people and goods waiting in Jiangjin, and they were completely defenseless, and suddenly saw the Wei army killing like wolves and tigers, and they immediately fled. Some boats rushed offshore into the river, but most of them were abandoned in the docks on the shore.

Li Mu and his entourage easily occupied the Jiangjin Ferry, and then split up a group of men and horses to rush straight to the Jinyang Gate in the south of Jiangling City. At this time, the Jinyang Gate had already received the alarm and closed the city gate tightly, allowing the many people who were blocked outside the city to plead and scream.

"Your Majesty, the Wei army has already occupied Jiangjin!"

After the southern garrison ordered the city gate to be closed to ward off the enemy, he sent people into the palace in a hurry to announce the news.

Emperor Xiao Yi, who was preaching "Lao Tzu" in the hall, suddenly changed his face after hearing this, and then waved his hand again and again: "Impossible, this is by no means...... Even if the Wei army comes to attack, shouldn't they come to Kou My Wansheng Gate?"

Seeing that His Majesty the Emperor was so resolute in denying it, the ministers thought that he would have some insight, and after hearing this, they did their best to control it without rolling their eyes. Wanshengmen is the north gate of Gangneung, the enemy came from the back, and in terms of direction, it is true that Wanshengmen was disturbed by the enemy first, but the question is, won't the enemy go around the city to the south of the city? After all, as long as you control Jiangjin in the south of the city, you can catch them in the urn!

"Your Majesty, taking advantage of the enemy's new arrival, you should quickly organize your army to attack and recapture Jiangjin, so that you will not be restrained in advance and retreat, even if you are defeated, you will not lose the way to avoid temporarily!"

Wuchang Taishou Zhu Maichen hurriedly got up and spoke.

However, as soon as his voice fell, Shangshu's left servant shook his head again and again: "No, no, this plan is very fierce! The former has broken the holy word, and the Wei State is in trouble, so it is not appropriate to attack me in this season. Now he has come to disturb one of his rangers, or because of something else, or he has frightened me with greed, and it is not the order of his master. If I hit it rashly, it will be self

Break with the former alliance and break with it. At that time, it is still time to send messengers to express condolences to find out their intentions and dispel misunderstandings."

Emperor Xiao Yi of Liang also nodded again and again after hearing this, and muttered in his mouth: "Jiangling is an important town of our river defense, if the Wei State wants to come to take it, how can it only send light horses...... What the servant said is a prudent plan, send a messenger to ask!"

After another discussion, everyone finally decided to send Huang Luohan, the secretary of Taifu, to lead a team out of the city to inquire about the origin of this Wei army. But in fact, everyone knows in their hearts that thinking like this is just self-deception, but the problem is that even if they don't think so, they are completely helpless at the moment.

Just as he was anxiously waiting for the messenger to deliver the message, the emperor remembered Li Lian, the envoy from the north, so he hurriedly looked at Wang Bao again and said, "Then where is Li Daochi, the pro-Li Boshan clan? Or because Li Boshan lost power, the Wei army came to arrest his henchmen, although this situation is small, but it must be guarded against. Quickly capture and summon that Li Daochi, be prepared, be prepared!"

Wang Bao's face was a little embarrassed when he heard this, and he hurriedly lowered his head and said, "Li Daochi has already left the minister's house without saying goodbye, and the minister has been busy with state affairs recently, and he has no time to inquire where he is now......

After hearing this, Xiao Yi's one-eyed eyes suddenly widened, and he said angrily: "The servant is busy with state affairs, and I have nothing to do? What is the public talent, but he doesn't know it? Hurry out of the garden and find Li Daochi, go quickly!"

Wang Bao didn't dare to argue at this time, so he hurriedly bowed down to receive the order, and then withdrew from the palace in a puff of smoke, and began to inquire all over the city to find Li Quan's whereabouts.

"No matter where the Wei army came from, how could the country be defenseless? Quickly lead the army to command the military service force of the city guards, public and private slaves, and ring the city to build a long fence, and whoever dares to disobey the hundreds of officials and slaves will be beheaded for me!"

Xiao Yi said with murderous eyes, it was obvious that he himself knew that something was going to be wrong, and his previous words were just delusions about not wanting to face the facts under the imminent disaster and stress.

After Hu Shengyou came out, Xiao Yi frowned and muttered, "It shouldn't be like this, it shouldn't be ...... Then Li Boshan's previous posture was so arrogant, and he didn't stop him from doing half a thing?"

He was still haunting his previous misjudgment, and only felt that even if the Wei army had a plan to attack Jiangling, at least it would take further action only after the power struggle in his country was clear. And the reason why he was not in a hurry to arrange to deal with the enemy was that he felt that Li Boshan's power was not weak, and it should take a long process and time for the Western Wei court to completely seize the military and political power in the southeast from his hands.

Therefore, Xiao Yi was not in a hurry to recall the downstream Wang Shengbi and other armies to Gongwei Jiangling, one is that Chen Baxian's self-initiated recovery of Guangling has already revealed signs of uncontrol, and there must be enough troops to guard the downstream to guard against his people, and second, he does not think that Li Boshan can win the game with the Western Wei court.

Once Li Boshan is defeated, the series of situations he has created will inevitably collapse, and then Wang Shengbi and other armies can advance north along the Dongguan, and take advantage of the internal and external disputes in the Western Wei Dynasty, he can also reap the benefits of the fisherman.

But now the Western Wei people suddenly invaded from the south, which caught Xiao Yidun off guard, and at the same time, he didn't feel that his judgment was wrong, it should be that Li Boshan was too vain, but the result was vulnerable, and after the Western Wei court quickly solved his people, he had the courage to continue to come south.

"It's ridiculous that Li Boshan, who claims to be a man in vain, but is so indestructible, not only will his own reputation be ruined, but he will also tire me to suffer a strong enemy!"

As soon as he thought of this, Xiao Yi said hatefully, he also misbelieved those rumors and public opinion, and thought that Li Boshan would be so brave and strong and difficult to solve, but he lost the southeast foundation that he had been operating for several years so easily, and also caused them Jiangling to be completely defenseless under the iron hooves of the Western Wei Dynasty.

Although he was indignant in his heart, he still needed to try his best to save himself, so Xiao Yi hurriedly sent an envoy out of the city and went downstream to summon Wang Shengbi and others to quickly return to Jiangling, hoping that Li Boshan would create a little trouble for his country, so that it would be difficult for the Western Wei to attack Jiangling with all his strength, and buy a little time for the reinforcement army.

Not to mention that the monarchs and ministers in Jiangling City were in a hurry, Li Mu outside the city was also a little confused by the attitude of the Liang people, he is also a battle-hardened general, and similar combat scenes have also experienced a lot, in previous years, when he led the army to the prisoner's city, he was often scolded by the defenders "You want to die", only the Liang people actually sent a messenger to ask him if he was tired, and even sent it

Lots of wine, meat, and food.

Looking at Liang Envoy's attentive and enthusiastic appearance, Li Mu had some self-doubt for a while, he had no prestige and was passed on to the southern kingdom, could it be that he didn't even have the slightest deterrent power like this?

"There must be deception!"

Even if Li Mu is not known for his resourcefulness, but he has just been vividly taught a few lessons in Chubei and Wuning before, he will definitely not be confused by such a superficial trick of the Liang people at this time, he immediately ordered to detain Huang Luohan and other envoys, and did not listen to their quibbles, as for the food and drink materials sent by the Liang people, they did not dare to touch them, but just stored them.

Then he took out two more of the envoys and said angrily, "You and the kings and ministers of the Liang Kingdom have betrayed their promises, betrayed our former alliance, and fornicated with the thieves to plot against our country, and the former even connived at the envoys to murder our envoys, and all kinds of evil deeds are difficult to count. Today, I am ordered by General Li Daxingtai, the Duke of Taiyuan, to enter the country to conquer the unrighteous country, and tell the monarchs and ministers of the Zhonger Kingdom in the city that if you want to live, you can quickly prepare a surrender letter, and wait for General Li's army to come to the city!"

After saying this, he ordered his subordinates to drive the two envoys to the city, and they entered the city to report the news, and he supervised the Liang soldiers and people who had been expelled from Zuo near to set up a temporary defensive camp near Jiangjin, and then took time to interrogate Huang Luohan and other personnel to find out what female plans Liang Guo had.

Not to mention that Li Mu couldn't understand the peculiar brain circuits of the Southern Liang monarchs and ministers, the Southern Liang monarchs and ministers were also somewhat incompetent in understanding the changes in their demonic situation in the Western Wei Dynasty.

"Kanto Road Daikodai? Isn't that a vain position that Li Boshan had taken before? This Li Xianqing said that he was driven by the Great Xingtai of the Kanto Province, isn't it Li Boshan's general?"

Hearing the report of the envoy's return to the city, Xiao Yi also felt a big head for a while, only to feel that his previous series of inferences seemed to be overturned again, and he glared at the two envoys and said angrily, "Are you sure you heard it right? If what you say is contrary to the truth, you will not be spared!"

When the two men heard this, they were also terrified, and each lowered his head to recall, and almost word for word repeated the words that the enemy general had said to them.

After hearing this, Xiao Yi's brows suddenly furrowed again, in fact, now for him, it doesn't matter what the situation in the Western Wei Kingdom is, this enemy general has already undisguised his hostility, and this trip is to attack them Jiangling.

However, Xiao Yi made many analyses of the national situation in the Western Wei Dynasty, and as a result, his inferences were repeatedly overturned, and now it seems that there are signs of a reversal, which undoubtedly hurts his self-esteem, and he can't help but scold with hatred: "Qiang thief plays me!"

At this time, a eunuch hurriedly ascended the palace and said, "Your Majesty, the royal servant has sent a messenger to report that he has found the location of the Wei envoy Li Daochi, who is living in the Puning Temple in the east of the city, but he refuses to be invited out of the temple. Servant shooting, do you need to storm into the temple and capture the people?"

"No, never!"

After hearing this, Xiao Yi waved his hand again and again, and at the same time secretly exclaimed in his heart that it was Wang Bao who was sent this time, and if he was replaced by an irritable and domineering person, he was afraid that he would offend Wei Envoy again.

Listening to what General Wei said, the other party originally regarded being rude to the envoy of his country as his own big crime, and now he is already in the city, of course, he can't be truthful.

"Tell the king and the servant quickly, you must be polite to the Wei envoy, don't use force! Remember, if you dare to disobey, you will be punished severely!"

Xiao Yi first hurriedly admonished, and then frowned deeply, trying to use his power to sort out what the situation of the Western Wei Dynasty was now.

However, this series of flipping changes even caught many parties in the Western Wei Dynasty off guard, and it was even more difficult for an outsider to deduce a complete picture with limited information. Thinking so persistently is just a temporary escape from the reality that a catastrophe is imminent and his family and country are in danger.

When Xiao Yi was still puzzled in Jiangling City, Li Tai had already gathered all the troops in Shicheng, and marched towards Jiangling along the water and land along the tributaries of the Han River!
