On Cangyun Mountain, it is snowy.

The rising mist completely enveloped the entire Cangyun Mountain, setting off the place like a fairyland.

In a courtyard at the top of the mountain, three men sat around a boiling bonfire.

The three of them are all dressed in luxurious robes, and their temperament is not bad, and at a glance they know that they are the rulers who have been in power for a long time.

On top of the campfire, a pot of hot tea is steaming.

One of the handsome men in black suddenly spoke: "When I saw this pot of tea, I suddenly remembered the time when we were discussing the world around tea in the carriage of Qianguo. ”

The three of them are naturally Xiao Chen, Leng Changfeng and Li Luo.

Listening to Xiao Chen's words, the other two didn't have too many other emotional fluctuations on their faces, maybe for Xiao Chen, that experience was unforgettable, but for Li Luo and Leng Changfeng, they knew better that people like them were not worthy of friendship and emotion.

Take Li Luo as an example, his beloved father-in-law and mentor betrayed him, in fact, on the night he knew the truth, Li Luo didn't know how many times he asked the sky why, but in response to him, only the dark cold wind howled at night.

At that moment, Li Luo completely let go of the emotions of the outside world.

Yes, in the face of the world's strife, feelings are indeed a lamentable joke.

Leng Changfeng on the side was also silent, it was true that he admired Li Luo and Xiao Chen very much.

It's a pity that appreciation can only be appreciation, but his dream is to compete for hegemony in the world in the future, on this road, there are no friends, only absolute interests.

Shaking his head, Leng Changfeng looked at Xiao Chen and said, "The prince has asked me to meet thousands of miles away, it won't be just to catch up, right?" ”

Xiao Chen smiled bitterly, shook his head and said, "I know that you don't care about the so-called old feelings, and I don't plan to use this to resolve your future battles, because I know that you have your own goals to strive for." You can do whatever it takes to achieve that goal. ”

Looking at Leng Changfeng, Xiao Chen said, "I know that you sent troops this time for the benefit of the Wu State, because this is the best time for you to expand the power of the Wu State." ”

Turning his head to look at Li Luo again, Xiao Chen said again: "I also know that with your and Ji Wushuang's strategy, even if the current dangerous situation, you must have a way to deal with it." ”

"You don't care about the coming war, because you're used to it, but I still want to try. Really, does it have to be a war? ”

Li Luo and Leng Changfeng glanced at each other, a hint of banter flashed in their eyes, in their eyes, what Xiao Chen said at this moment was as ridiculous as what a naïve child said.

Things have come to this point, where is there any room for detours?

Feeling the indifference in the eyes of the two, Xiao Chen shook his head and chuckled: "Although I have already guessed the current situation, it still makes me sigh a little, power and interests are really so important to you?" ”

The two were silent again, just staring at the steaming teapot in front of them.

Xiao Chen suddenly said again: "Since human favors don't make sense, then I'll say that you are interested." ”

Looking at Leng Changfeng, Xiao Chen said: "I'm thinking, Wu Guo sent troops this time to open the gap between Wu and Xia, no matter who wins or loses in this battle, you Wu Guo will be the final winner in the future, am I right?" ”

Leng Changfeng's plain face finally showed a strange color, looked at Xiao Chen and said: "The prince has said this, I won't hide it, indeed, my Wu Kingdom does have this idea." But Lord Wang, you have to understand, it's not that I'm cold and ruthless, but now that the four kingdoms are standing today, even if there is no war now, there will be a war in the future. ”

"People's desires are endless, where can a country be satisfied by peace?"

"In the future, the world will eventually be unified, but everyone wants to be the final winner."

"My move today is to open the gap in the Xia Kingdom, so that in the future, whether the Wu State is attacking or defending, it will be under the control of the Wu State."

Xiao Chen nodded: "I understand what you said, but today, I plan to negotiate a condition with you, General." ”

Leng Changfeng shook his head and said, "If it is for me to withdraw from this war, then the prince will not say anything." ”

"No!" Who knew that Xiao Chen said in a deep voice: "You not only have to attack Huainan, but also be the first to strike." ”

As soon as these words came out, whether it was Leng Changfeng, even Li Luo on the side was confused.

"What do you mean by that?" Leng Changfeng looked at Xiao Chen puzzled and asked.

Xiao Chen said softly: "Huainan and Xia Guo, there will be a war after all, this is unavoidable, Zhang Yiyun sent a request for help to the world, just to drag the four countries into the water." ”

"You Wu Guo just want to be alone, I don't think it's realistic, it's better to push the boat with the water than this."

"But in this case...... Leng Changfeng's gaze swept over Li Luo and Xiao Chen and said, "You and Prince Li Luo, can you really withstand my tripartite joint attack?" ”

Li Luo on the side was the first to speak and smiled: "This doesn't need the general to bother, I, Li Luo, will be on Tianfeng City and wait for the general's army." ”

Leng Changfeng smiled and didn't speak.

Xiao Chen muttered: "But my condition is that if Huainan is weak after the start of the war, I hope that the general can secretly help Huainan." ”

"Huh?!" Li Luo and Leng Changfeng were both a little stunned, what was Xiao Chen talking about?

Let Wu be the first to attack Huainan, but let Wu help Huainan at a critical juncture?

There has never been a battle like this in the world.

Xiao Chen raised his head and looked at Leng Changfeng and said, "General, let me ask you, if he perishes in the south of Huainan, who do you think is the first person to guard against in the Xia Kingdom?" ”

Leng Changfeng did not speak.

Xiao Chen continued: "What the general did in the Heavenly Wolf Pass, needless to say, Zhang Yiyun could guess the intentions and thoughts, that is, now Zhang Yiyun wants to deal with Li Luo even more, so he let the general's army ignore it, but what if Li Luo is gone?" ”

"At that time, even if the Xia Kingdom is empty, it will definitely be more defensive against the Wu Kingdom."

"Indeed, the general can destroy the Xia State that will be in danger at that time at any cost, but the general should not forget that if the Wu State and the Xia State go to war, it will be the Qian State and the Wei State that will reap the benefits."

Leng Changfeng's eyes shrank: "Lord Wang, what do you want to say?" ”

Glancing at Li Luo, Xiao Chen said, "Only if Li Luo is still here, can we better help the Wu State to encroach on the Xia Kingdom." ”

"Only I am here can completely lock up Bai Qi of Wei State."

"And the people who will benefit in the end are you, Wu and Qian. I don't know what the general planned before, which is better or worse? ”

At this time, Leng Changfeng and Li Luo both had a deep shock on their faces, none of them expected that Xiao Chen would actually make such a suggestion.

The heat was boiling above the bonfire, and Leng Changfeng, who had been contemplating for a long time, took a deep breath and said:

"Lord Wang, the tea is ready......"

Some people died, but not completely......
