Chapter 871: Positive and Negative
No matter how powerful Fu Shan Lie is, he can't bring the thousands of troops and horses of Bega.
The high positions and powers present know that some things cannot be settled purely by force.
Zhong Shengguang nodded: "If you have no opinion, I will reject He Lingchuan's request." ”
The door of the Gange Hall was pushed open, and General Hong, dressed in dark red light armor, strode in.
She had just returned from the battlefield, and there was a fierce air in her actions.
Zhong Shengguang asked her, "How is the battle in Xuhe?" ”
"Baling launched twice, but I stopped him. But with little rain in autumn and winter, and the water level drops, they will definitely try to cross the river. The red general sat down with a golden sword, and crossed his fingers under his chin, "In the Baling army, there are many new monsters, and they are all some Taoists. ”
"Mo wasn't sent by Bega?" Zhao Xianhe was taken aback, "This is not good. Vega had never sent troops into the Coiling Dragon Wasteland before. ”
Beijia calculated Panlong City several times, but they were all doing bad in secret, either controlling Baling and Xianyou to attack the Panlong Wasteland, or using Jindu Ghost Mother and mutant demon insects to invade the Chipa Plateau.
Directly send demon soldiers to participate in the battle of the Panlong Wasteland, this is the first time?
The meaning behind this move is not good.
Maybe it's a sign that Bega has lost patience with Panlong City?
"When we take a few prisoners, we'll ask them in detail." General Red was wearing a mask, but everyone still felt her gaze sweeping over their faces, "What are you discussing?" ”
Zhong Shengguang then talked about the topic.
General Hong picked up the urgent report from the table and glanced at it: "Interesting." If it is only to divide the bandits and isolate Fu Shanlie, there is no need to curry favor with the water bandits like this. Send someone to negotiate and appease the gangs. I see that He Lingchuan still has a back hand that is not used. ”
General Nan Ke was slightly surprised: "You support him?" ”
Zhong Shengguang laughed and laughed: "What is the backhand, it was not written in the urgent report." ”
"If you use it, you believe it." General Hong said indifferently, "I don't pay an extra 30,000 taels of silver a year, let him play." ”
"More than thirty thousand." Zhao Xianhe pointed out, "The repair and maintenance of the Takichuan trade road will not be able to rely on those water bandits alone, and Yuhengcheng will inevitably pay out of his own pocket." Besides, Yuhengcheng had been fighting with the water bandits for several months before, and the two sides had already formed a feud. Now that Yuheng City is suddenly currying favor with the water bandits, where are the soldiers and civilians willing? ”
"Public opinion can be channeled, Yuhengcheng has been doing well recently, and its income has risen." General Hong said lightly, "I don't see what the problem is. ”
Zhong Shengguang frowned: "But ......"
The young man's plan is full of nonsense.
"There's nothing wrong with dealing with General Bega first. If the external forces are driven out of Takigawa, the bandits will not be a big problem. General Hong threw the emergency report on the table, "Commander Zhong originally wanted to send Zhao Yin'an to lead Yuheng City, but he was temporarily replaced by He Lingchuan, didn't he just want to test his talent?" Now that the opportunity has come, it's time to observe. ”
Zhong Shengguang groaned.
Zhao Xianhe was dissatisfied: "He Lingchuan's request is whimsical, Lord Zhong won't really think about it, right?" Experiment with such a big thing, child's play! ”
General Nan Ke seconded: "In the past, we suppressed bandits in the Panlong Desert, which time was not simply neat? Even if Bega sent people to infiltrate the Takigawa River to make trouble, it would only be a team of men. If He Lingchuan can't do it, I am willing to lead the troops to Takichuan and wipe them all out to prevent future troubles. Heh, why do you want to let Yuhengcheng play with them? ”
General Hong said lightly: "If Panlong City defeats Jinhan again in the future, there are bandits there, and you will go too?" ”
General Nan Ke did not hesitate: "Go." ”
"If there is a rebellion in the old capital of Xiqian at the same time, can you go to quell the rebellion?"
“…… I can divide my troops. ”
"What if at the same time, the northern line of the Panlong Desert encounters the Baling Suppression?"
General Nan Ke was displeased: "General Hong, there is no shortage of good generals in Panlong City." ”
"Panlong City wants to expand outward, and what it lacks most is talents who can take charge of themselves." General Hong crossed his arms and asked him, "Now that every trouble on the old land of Xiqi has to be suppressed by Panlong City, and in the future, our territory will expand more and more, do we all have to fight fires everywhere with the Panlong Army and the Gale Army?" ”
Zhong Shengguang hesitated for a long time before he said, "I just want to go to Yuheng City, I'll listen to He Lingchuan's statement." ”
Hearing is believing, and it is good to decide.
The generals did not say much. In an argument like today's, once General Red is present, there is almost no suspense in the outcome, alas.
……
Takigawa, the garrison of the Western Puppet Army.
This was originally the lair of the Lu family gang, and after the Xiqian puppet army annexed it, Fu Shanlie fell in love with the complex terrain here.
This place is called the starling lake, and the seven large and small lakes are connected to each other, sparkling like pearls. The grass grows by the lake to a foot high, and there is no shadow when people walk in.
The islands in the lake are the station, and the surrounding aquatic monsters are the guards.
Fu Shanlie was sleeping after lunch, and his cronies ran to the green bamboo couch in small steps, and whispered: "General, the informant." ”
Fu Shanlie's eyelids twitched: "Say." ”
"There is news from the inside line of Qianjinzhai that Tao Rin and Xu Zeshou will meet with the commander of Yuheng City privately, and the other party has made an agreement with them."
"Commander? He Lingchuan? Fushan Lie opened his eyes, "What agreement?" ”
The cronies then reported the contents.
When Fu Shanlie heard this, he sat up: "Has the agreement been reached?" ”
"Tao Xu and the others said that they wanted to go back and discuss it."
"Gentle and ignorant." Fu Shan Lie said, "If it were me, I would agree on the spot." ”
"Yuhengcheng is afraid that I will take away all the people in Takichuan, so I want to win over these useless things!" He pressed his temple, "I can't bear the child to catch the wolf, this surname He is really a character." ”
"According to the inside story in the north, Yuheng City doesn't like his orders, thinking that it is redundant for him to curry favor with the water bandits, and he squanders his money excessively, which is not in line with the usual practice of the Panlong City army."
Fu Shan Lie was overjoyed when he heard this: "This is good news. Since he is the only one who insists on it, then just kill him! ”
The surname He is dead, and Yuhengcheng's strategy of suppressing bandits is likely to return to the old way. His plan could go on again.
This cronie came from Bega, and he was still a little puzzled: "General, even if this Dragon City takes Xiqi, it will still be a land of projectiles." Why did you automatically ask for a bow and come over to deal with a descending city? ”
General Fushan shined in the Battle of Yuanguo, and he was a backward young man in the sequence of General Bega, where to make meritorious contributions, why did he choose here? The dignified General Bega is mixed in the water bandits' den all day long, isn't it self-defeating? Even their subordinates had to fight the autumn breeze on the dusty Takigawa trade road.
Fu Shan Lie glanced at him, and was clear about the little Jiujiu in his stomach: "Come with me to Takikawa, you're not happy to eat too much ash, right?" ”
"No, no!" The cronies hurriedly denied it, "The life of the humble post is all yours, what's the big deal about eating some ashes!" ”
"Places like the Panlong Wasteland and Xiqi are like Xiqi, there are many places in the world, where is it worth taking a closer look at Lingxu City?" Fu Shanlie asked him, "Why did Lingxu City test Panlong City twice or three times?" ”
"I don't know what I do."
"There's a lot wrong here." Fu Shanlie stretched out his hand and pointed to the sky, "I heard that the gods enshrined in Panlong City are stirring up wind and rain in the sky, and the Spirit Void Holy Venerable is very unhappy; The army of Panlong City, the Gale Army, was also surprisingly strong. ”
The cronies immediately said: "No matter how powerful it is, it is not as good as our Bega." ”
"Yes, you've compared?"
"No, no. However...... "Bega's national strength and military power dominate the world, and the famous generals are like clouds, what is the comparison of this small Panlong City?"
Fu Shanlie snorted: "Compared to Bega, the Coiling Dragon Desert is indeed just a projectile land. But in terms of area and population, the Yuan Force of Panlong City is unusually strong! This even attracted the attention of the gods. Let them sit on the ground and grow, and it will be even more difficult to exterminate them in the future. Xiqi and Takigawa are excellent entry points, and Panlong City has just taken this place into its pocket, and its rule is not stable. If you can cut off their hands and feet that extend outward, it may be able to cause Panlong City to lose blood continuously. ”
He put his hands behind his head: "I'm here to make a good move." ”
The cronies seem to understand or not: "The general is wise." ”
Fu Shanlie yawned again: "You know a P, step down." ”
……
More than a month later, Takigawa Qianjin Village.
Tao Rin, the owner of the village, just got up from a nap and stretched his waist while walking.
Since signing an agreement with He Lingchuan and being employed in Yuheng City, the largest gangster in Takichuan, Qianjinzhai, has been transformed into a waist card, eaten official meals, and steadily collected road taxes for dozens of days.
When the merchants saw these bandits standing in the checkpoint holding a license to collect fees, they were so shocked that their eyes were about to fall, if it weren't for the Yuheng defenders on the side, they were afraid that they would turn around and run.
The surname He is right, it is really comfortable to collect money like this, and there is no need to show the guy at all, so people will come over with smiling faces and willingly handing over the silver with both hands.
Collecting money as an official is justifiable.
After signing the agreement between Qianjinzhai and the Ball Flower Gang, he announced to Takikawa, asking the other bandits to stay away from the section of the road they charged, and not to make trouble.
After so many days, only the Xiqian puppet army did not give face, robbed the Dao'er twice, one time succeeded, and the other time was stopped by the defenders of Qianjinzhai and Yuheng City, and the blood flowed all over the ground.
But in general, guarding the road is much more cost-effective than robbing the road, and even the casualty compensation of the Shoudao is paid by Yuhengcheng.
What did Commander He say?
The work-related injury bulletin, that is, the public reimbursement.
Qianjinzhai and the Qiuhua Gang did this, and the other small bandit gangs had no way to survive, so they simply followed the example of the big gang and surrendered to Yuhengcheng.
However, Tao Rin always felt that the atmosphere in the village was a bit strange today, and many people gathered together to whisper, but when they saw him, they were silent, and their eyes flickered.
Even when he went to Xiaojie, there were always a few eyes behind him, which made him uncomfortable.
Tao Rin finally couldn't bear it, and pointed to everyone casually: "Say!" What the hell is going on, one by one thieves are staring at Lao Tzu! What's the matter, I haven't had any work lately, so I'm suffocating you? ”
His prestige in the village is not low, everyone looks at each other, and no one wants to be a bird.
Finally, someone pushed the lame man in front of the door and whispered: "Liu lame, what you see, you go up!" ”
The lame man's leg was broken during the robbery three years ago, and then he couldn't ride a horse, so he could only stay in the stockade to work as a groom, fork forage and clean horse manure all day long.
Tao Rin's eyes froze: "Come here!" What do you see? ”
