Chapter 248: Eavesdropping
Yun Hailan adjusted the position of the aperture, and then let go of the bare hand that was covering Wu Feng's eyes.
Looking at the past from this angle, you can only see the blood-colored Luo skirt on the ground, and the woman is sitting with a full head of red hair like fire.
"It's amazing. Yun Hailan glanced at it and said, "No wonder you are haunted by your dreams, and you have mentioned her nearly ten times in less than a year." ”
Obviously, it was Yun Hailan who pestered Wu Feng and asked him to say that it was worth paying attention to what happened in the more than a year of separation. Since there are only so many interesting things to do, it is inevitable to repeat them.
Wu Feng consciously mentioned Sheng Zuixiang more times, not as much as Di Linjian and Ren Yaoxiao, but he didn't expect to be counted clearly by Yun Hailan.
Women's hostility towards their own kind is really difficult for men to imagine.
Wu Feng had no choice but to keep his mouth shut.
But I heard Qiao Beiming say coldly: "Princess Sheng is amazingly bold, but what is the benefit of joining forces with you for the old man?"
Sheng Zuixiang looked dignified: "Dare to ask the territory of the Shura Gate, how does it compare with the Sendai Demon Sect?"
Qiao Beiming said with a slight expression: "It's three times that of Sendai." ”
Sheng Zuixiang asked again: "What about the mobilized troops?"
Qiao Beiming was slightly stunned, and then said: "It's only one-third of Sendai." ”
That's a conservative estimate. The northern part of the Luo Wilderness is vast and sparsely populated, and the population of the Shura Gate is 4 million, of which there are only 400,000 free people, and only 20,000 soldiers can be mobilized. There were about five times as many militias, but most of them were slaves.
The Sendai Demon Sect itself can mobilize more than 30,000 soldiers, the strongest tribe, the Ashina Sect, can mobilize 15,000, and the Yin Spirit Hall that has subdued Yizhongtang in recent years can also mobilize more than 10,000, adding up to 60,000. And that's not counting the smaller Sendai tribes such as the Soma Gang, Kasaikaku, Miharu Village, and Nikaido.
Since slavery was abolished to some extent in Sendai, there were far more militias that could be mobilized than Shuramon.
Sheng Zuixiang said: "The settlement points on the ice field are fixed, unlike the grassland where you can live by water and grass. If Yi Zhongtang sends troops to the north, how can the master of Qiaomen control it? Not to mention that the Andong Mansion will definitely take advantage of the fire to rob ......"
In the face of Qiao Beiming, the number one master of the Demon Dao, Sheng Zuixiang was not only not timid, but also sharp and aggressive.
In the dungeon. Yun Hailan said to Wu Feng: "Among the four major factions of the Demon Gate, the Shura Sect and the Anton Mansion are feuding. ”
Wu Feng nodded: "I know." Nowadays, among the various factions of the Demon Dao, almost only the Shura and Andong factions have not yet fallen under Yi Zhongtang's Bamboo Bird Army Banner. However, with the hatred of these two factions, even in the face of Yi Zhongtang's northern invasion offensive. I'm afraid that they can't fight the enemy side by side, but they will be provoked by Yi Zhongtang to kill each other. ”
Qiao Beiming's old eyes looked at Sheng Zuixiang, pondered for a while, and said: "One-third of the troops want to defend three times the vast land of the enemy. Naturally, it is extremely difficult. If you want to strengthen the wall and clear the wilderness, because of the vast area, it will be inconvenient to order. If you want to hold the danger, the resource points in various places must be burned down. ”
Sheng Zuixiang said: "With Yi Zhongtang's style, he doesn't care about this population in the northern part of the Luo Wilderness at all, most of the Holy Sect is already in his hands, so even if he kills all the Shura Sects from top to bottom, and turns this boundless ice field into a no-man's land, in Yi Zhongtang's eyes, it can be regarded as unifying the Holy Gate." ”
Sheng Zuixiang did not shy away from the word Demon Sect, but in front of Qiao Beiming. It is still called the Holy Sect and the Holy Gate.
Hearing these words in Qiao Beiming's eyes, of course it was harsh, he was a generation of demon lords, and he didn't even pay attention to Yang Qi, the number one master of the Daomen, how could he bend his waist to Yi Zhongtang?
However, the situation is stronger than people, even if Qiao Beiming is really a saint-level master like Yang Qi, it is impossible to resist the surging army of Sendai with the strength of one person!
"In this way, does the old man have to bow his head?" Qiao Beiming said with a slight sorrow.
"Back then, the master of Qiaomen fell into a waterhole, and he retreated as an advance, so he had to kill Danfeng, the advocate of the Central Plains Martial Arts League. Famous all over the world. Now why not bend down for the time being in order to seek huge benefits?" Sheng Zuixiang smiled and said, "Yi Zhongtang is eager to integrate the Holy Gate and send troops south. Ambition has clouded his sanity. Shuramon didn't have to bow down like the Yin Spirit Temple, but only wrote a letter in a more respectful tone, claiming that if Yi Zhongtang let go of the Central Plains, Shura was willing to advance and retreat with Sendai. If I say a few more words on the side, Yi Zhongtang will think that Shura is obedient and let his guard down. Concentrate on preparing for the south. ”
At that time, Zuixiang could use his strategy to detonate the contradictions within Sendai, ignite the fire of burning the city, and burn Yi Zhongtang's hegemony to ashes! ”
Sheng Zuixiang's expression is like ice, and his beautiful face is full of determination, without half of the charm and softness on weekdays.
"Okay!" Qiao Beiming clapped his hands like lightning, and his voice was like thunder: "Your father Sheng Xuanhuai is known as the first debater under Yi Zhongtang by the world, and he is really a famous tiger girl, and her eloquence is not under your father at all!"
"The Demon Lord of Domon praises falsely. "Sheng drunken incense is neither humble nor arrogant, and his attitude is graceful.
Qiao Beiming said: "However, the old man still has a few things to understand. ”
Sheng Zuixiang said: "Zuixiang is willing to listen to it, but the master of Qiaomen has asked questions, and he will answer them wholeheartedly." ”
Qiao Beiming straightened his body, and his voice was like a railway: "First, the soldiers pointed to the Middle Earth, drank the Yellow River again, and even threw the whip to cut off the stream, crossing the Yangtze River and sweeping the whole world, which is the ideal of our Holy Gate factions for many years. Now that Yi Zhongtang is about to unify the Holy Church, he is your father-in-law, and he treats you like a mountain, why don't you help with all your might, but instead draw on the immediate benefits of the independence of the Ashina Sect?"
Sheng Zuixiang said: "The answer is very simple, Middle-earth is not chaotic enough. ”
She swiped lightly with her jade fingers: "Yi Zhongtang is too conceited, and he is not even willing to contact the Dragon Slayer Society in the Western Regions and the Buddhist Gate in the western part of the grassland, and wants to sweep the Central Plains with the power of the Holy Gate alone." However, the Great Jin Dynasty in the Central Plains experienced the Rebellion of the Eight Kings, ten rooms and nine emptiness, and the society was in decline, so my holy gate was able to take advantage of the void to enter. Now in the Central Plains, only in the north, Yang Qi's Holy King Dao Sect is strong, and the Northern Yan Shang Qingying is also a generation of masters, if the Demon Gate goes south, the various factions in the Central Plains are even more likely to get rid of old grievances and work together to resist. ”
"Yi Zhongtang sent troops south, and at the beginning it may be like a bamboo, and soon it will fall into a quagmire and have to fight hard! At that time, either the Holy Gate coalition army will be collectively defeated and retreat to Beimang, and everyone will suffer heavy losses; or Yi Zhongtang will use the Shura, Ashina, Yin and other factions as cannon fodder, and barely win and occupy the Yellow River Valley, but we have all become the stepping stones for Yi Zhongtang's hegemony!"
Sheng Zuixiang's beautiful eyes looked forward to it, and he looked at his jade arms stretched like willows, and his voice turned soft and silky: "This beautiful body is all transformed by the blood of my father and mother." Drunken Xiang really doesn't want to tear himself apart and pave the way for others because of the word foolishness......"
One muscle, one face, all the best. Even Qiao Beiming, a generation of demon lords who had read all the world's affairs, couldn't help but be moved.
"What a charming little girl. Yun Hailan sighed below.
When it comes to beauty, she is not inferior to Sheng Zuixiang, but she is far less coquettish.
Qiao Beiming nodded, and said, "Second." You said before that the most important thing about instigating the civil war of the Sendai Demon Sect lies in Yi Qianyang, the eldest son of Yi Zhongtang. ”
Sheng Zuixiang restrained her charm, and returned to her elegant and dream-like temperament, and said, "Not bad." The foundation of the Sendai Demon Sect is too big, and Yi Zhongtang has to hand over part of the power to Yi Qianyang, but Yi Qianyang is too ambitious, and there is a faint tendency of father and son. ”
Qiao Beiming said: "The opposition between father and son is indeed an opportunity. However, there is no intimacy. After all, you are not a member of the Yi family, how can you say that you can move Yi Qianyang to do it? Princess Sheng wouldn't think that just her beauty would make your righteous brother, known as a brave general, fascinated and raise his sword to his biological father?"
Sheng Zuixiang said with a smile: "Voice, color, wine, food, entertainment, etc., are all just the assistance of the vertical and horizontal arts. Move it with profit, deceive it with tricks, knock on the side, and fan the flames. Yi Qianyang is naturally not a womanizer, but the forty-year-old prince has no grudges. Yi Qianyang has been the son of the world for thirty-seven years......"
Qiao Beiming suddenly smiled. The sound was like a thunderbolt, and the whole room shook: "As you said, you came to lobby the old man, and it is also a vertical and horizontal technique?"
Sheng Zuixiang's expression remained unchanged: "The art of vertical and horizontal." There is a trick of deception to confuse the judgment of the enemy, trap the enemy to death, and there is an open and honest dissection of the interests and disadvantages, and seek common interests. What Zuixiang said to Qiao's door master today, whether he is telling the truth, the door master has always been wise. Self-discerning. ”
"It's really a good father-in-law who colludes with outsiders to frame him, and he can say it so high-sounding and justifiable. Yun Hailan said.
"But it is undeniable that if the Sendai Demon Sect is in chaos, it will be beneficial to Middle-earth. Wu Feng said rationally.
Yun Hailan glanced at him.
Wu Feng smiled, walked over and gently squeezed her jade hand.
Qiao Beiming spoke again.
"The first two questions, your answers are satisfactory to the old man, now the third question, and finally, but also the most crucial. ”
"You said that if Yi Zhongtang comes to attack me, Andong Mansion will take advantage of the fire to rob and jointly send troops with Yi Zhongtang. So if there is civil strife in Sendai, the old man goes to attack, the rear is empty, and the Anton family hates the Shura Gate to the bone, and will also send troops to attack the city and village! If you can't solve this problem, how can the old man join forces with you?"
What Qiao Beiming said is indeed a huge problem.
Sheng Zuixiang was pale, and said lightly: "Leave it to Zuixiang to solve." ”
Qiao Beiming asked, "Will Ji come out?"
Sheng Zuixiang said: "When a hungry dog has meat and bones in front of him, he will never run to bite someone standing in the distance. Hundreds of years ago, Andong Mansion was divided into two families, and the two families fought openly and secretly, but because of their hatred for Shuramen, they have always joined forces to fight against the enemy in front of Shura. What if we provide an opportunity for Andong Prefecture to reunify?"
"Zuixiang had already buried a secret son in Andong Mansion, and then in the name of an alliance, he first secretly communicated with the slightly stronger upper family, and then deceived the alliance with the next family, but provided false information, which damaged the strength of the next family. Seeing that the Shura Gate was attacking Sendai with all its might, the Shangjia had no worries, so they naturally went all out to attack the Xiajia in order to seek reunification. ”
Qiao Beiming said with a slight hesitation: "As you said, the unification of the two families in the Andong Mansion is a greater threat to our Shura Sect, although this plan is feasible, how can it be called a clever strategy?"
Sheng Zuixiang heard this, but he laughed for a long time, like a flower branch trembling, and his red hair trembled like waves in the sea of fire. The rose on his head almost fell to the ground.
"What is Princess Sheng laughing at again?" Qiao Beiming's face was as pale as ice.
"When Sendai is in chaos, Qiaomen mainly attacks the city and plunders the land, and the strength of the Shura Gate has increased greatly, so why be afraid of a unified Anton? When the Qiao Sect Lord went south alone to challenge the Wulin League's proposition Danfeng, even Yang Qi, the number one master in the world, may not be in his eyes, so arrogant, could he still be afraid of the rats of the Anton family?" Sheng Zuixiang laughed and said in a dignified voice. (To be continued.) )
