Li Shengxing stopped her movements when she heard this, and sat down slowly, she looked at Rong Zhi puzzled, "What else do you want to say?" ”

Rong Zhi took out a letter and handed it to Li Shengxi.

Li Shengxi was a little suspicious, but she still took it over and took a look, and after reading it, she glanced at Rong Zhi again, "Zhan Qirui persuaded Gu Lingxu to surrender?" Did you plan this? ”

"Weichen made his own opinion, and I ask Your Highness to forgive me." Rong Zhi nodded, and continued: "It's just that now that he has persuaded Gu Lingxu, I still have to come to help persuade His Highness." ”

"Tell me about it." Li Shengxi's expression did not change. Pushing the letter forward, of course she knew that no matter how beautiful the rod was, it was better not to fight, but what she was worried about was that Gu Lingxu had a high prestige in Xichang, and if he crossed the river and demolished the bridge, surrendered and rebelled, she was afraid that he would still have to fight at that time.

And by that time, it will be much more difficult to fight than it is now. Now it's taking advantage of his illness to kill him. But if that time comes, it will be Gu Lingxu who wants her life.

Xichang is Gu Lingxu's territory, Gu Lingxu also has 100,000 people in his hands, and Xichang Baixin worships him like a god. At that time, she had just finished dealing with Xirong, and if Gu Lingxu was a surprise attack, even if she parried it, she was afraid that she would lose a lot.

Gu Ling's character is passable, but everyone is a politician who intends to take the throne, and his good character is generally to benefit the people, not to political enemies. Standing in Gu Lingxu's footsteps, he had the opportunity to establish himself as an emperor. Now he is forced to be helpless, and it is just a matter of surrendering to the Northern Qi court. After all, the Gu family has always been a courtier of the Xiao family. But if he gives up to the Li family of the Southern Jin Dynasty, he may not be at ease, right?

To put it bluntly, the city sent by others is not as safe as the one that was beaten by oneself.

"His Royal Highness's reinforcements help Xichang, and its benefits are four.

First, the Northern Qi and Southern Jin Dynasty joined forces to fight against Xirong, which can convey a message to the people of the world that the Northern Qi and Southern Jin Dynasty belong to one source. Since it is of the same origin, it is the first one in the sky. Now His Royal Highness has sent troops to Northern Qi, not for territory, but to unify the world, overthrow the rule of the Northern Qi Dynasty, save the people from fire and water, and return the world to peace. In this way, it will be much easier to conquer cities and conquer the people in the future. ”

What do you say...... Can't fault it. Li Shengxian smiled lightly, without the slightest embarrassment.

Seeing this, Rong Zhi also smiled, and then continued: "Second, you can take Xichang without spending soldiers. Although it is necessary to spend troops to attack foreign tribes, it will not make the people of Xichang resist, which is conducive to His Highness's future governance of Xichang.

Third, it can achieve the righteous name of His Highness, His Royal Highness sent troops to help the enemy, to fight against foreign races, this is His Royal Highness's high righteousness, if it comes out at this time, how can the world not admire. In the future, whether His Highness rules the north or plots great things, it will be smoother.

Fourth, now the border of the Northern Qi Dynasty is restless, the people are not happy, and the Northern Qi court has lost the hearts of the people. Coupled with the layers of exploitation by the DPRK and the central government, many places have run out of food. After His Royal Highness entered Xichang, he was surrendered to the general and distributed grain to the people of Xichang. The people of Xichang must be grateful to Dade. This is the case in the foreground. The rest of the state capitals of Northern Qi may not follow suit. ”

Li Sheng's eyes moved, "The benefits are indeed good." It's just Cechen, what I'm really worried about is what if Gu Ling surrenders and rebels? If he crosses the river and demolishes the bridge, and then attacks me by surprise, it will be a disadvantage. ”

Gu Lingxu has the heart of being an emperor and a king, she and Rong Zhi both understand, and before, Gu Lingxu had already taken specific actions.

"After His Highness sends troops, as long as he wins, His Highness will be the savior of Xichang and Xiangchenghou. The Marquis of Xiangcheng first stood on his own feet, but he was already disloyal, and if he surrendered and rebelled, it was for unbelief. It would be unjust for our army to rise up again when it is weary. It is even more unkind to ignore the overall situation and start another war. The Gu family has been famous for a hundred years, and the Marquis of Xiangcheng has been fighting horses for many years, so he will not sit back and watch such a thing happen. ”

"You mean, ask me to personally lead the troops to Xichang?" Li Shengsheng raised his eyebrows.

The army is naturally divided into several ways to attack it, and it is impossible for 500,000 people to fight in one place, and when the time comes, Mu Jing and Xu Huanzhi are afraid that they will have to be divided to attack other places. Listening to Rong Zhi's meaning, he wanted her to personally lead the troops in Xichang.

Rong Zhi nodded, "The situation in Xichang is complicated, just as His Highness thought, and he wants to let the Marquis of Xiangcheng surrender and rebel, I am afraid that His Highness needs to go to the town in person." ”

Xu Huanzhi and Mu Jing are both military generals, even if one is the "first general in the southwest" and the other is the "current general", they can't hide the fact that they are military generals.

War is a good hand, but it may not be able to cope with changes. But Li Shengxun is different, she is both a coach and a politician. Gu Lingxu's dim sum eyes are not enough to play when Li Sheng is here. Of course, it is most suitable for Li Shengxi to go to Xichang in person.

"If so...... Gu Lingxu couldn't think of this section? Li Shengxun asked again, Gu Lingxu has some intelligence, but he is eager for quick success, if he doesn't care about it, everything is difficult to say. He had been quite emperor before. Forced to bow down, if the predicament is dissipated, who knows what he will do. The so-called profit makes the mind faint. Wasn't Gu Lingxu just carried away by interests at the beginning, so that he became self-reliant early, and fell into a state of isolation?

"It doesn't matter, after entering Xichang, the powerful ministers will talk to him. His Royal Highness sent Zhan Lang to lobby the general of the Xichang Army when the time came, and His Royal Highness made a deterrent attack on the Marquis of Xiangcheng. At that time, the Marquis of Xiangcheng will be under the authority of His Royal Highness, and it will be difficult to rebel due to the current situation. After subduing Xichang again, His Royal Highness will first recuperate, recover the hearts of the people in Xichang, and control the political affairs of Xichang. Rong Zhi spoke slowly, and at the end, what did he think, he said again: "Moreover, Xichang is poor, as long as His Highness has mastered the grain channel, how can Gu Lingxu go against His Highness?" ”

It is true that Xichang is not as rich in food as other places, but over the years, because of Gu Lingxu's good governance, the life of the people of Xichang is much better than that of other places in Northern Qi. But now that Xichang has been trapped for many days, I'm afraid that this grain is not very abundant.

But the Southern Jin Dynasty is different, the Southern Jin Dynasty has been recuperating for many years and developing people's power for today's sake. The granaries are abundant and the treasury is abundant. If the Xichang army is allowed to rely on the grain of the Southern Jin Dynasty, it can not only make the Xichang army grateful to Li Sheng. It can also allow Li Shengxi to firmly grasp the lifeblood of the Xichang Army, which can be described as a combination of grace and power.

How dare Gu Lingxu rebel?

Li Shengxi's expression did not change, but his eyes were slightly gloomy, as if he was thinking about this matter.

Seeing this, Rong Zhi no longer spoke, but waited for the result of Li Sheng's attack.

After a while, Li Shengxian said slowly: "Since this is the case, then send troops." ”
