Lin Renzhao laid down Lizhou all the way, crossed the Li Shui Road, and passed down the good news to Jinling three times in just one day, and successively laid down the boiled cottage, Sanjiangkou, and Shakou Pass, once the Wuping northern border was laid Yiyang, you can drive straight into Changsha Mansion.

Lin Renzhao followed the plan of Tang Emperor Li Yu again, and the soldiers were backward, and made a full gesture to enter the Changsha Mansion of Tanzhou to negotiate peace with Zhou Baoquan, who stayed in Wuping. The development of things has always been in the same direction as Li Yu thought.

Li Guanxiang, the secretary in charge of Changsha Prefecture, knew that Wuping's military strength was weak and invincible to the Tang State, and he strongly advocated that the two sides hold peace talks, which could meet most of the conditions of the Tang State.

And Yang Shiwan was originally determined to fight to the death with the Tang State, but after seeing the Tang General Lin Renzhao, he still had a little respect and reluctantly agreed to the plan to attack the state first.

It's just that Liu Renzhen has not made progress in Yuanzhou for a long time, and after the fifth day, Li Yu already feels that he can't wait any longer, the situation in the north is about to be settled, and waiting like this will only drag Tang Guo to death.

So he decided to cooperate with Zhou Baoquan to send troops to Xuzhou and take Hengyang directly, as for how to control Zhou Baoquan later, that is a later story. As for Wang Changbao under Hengyang City, he was more anxious than Tang Emperor Li Yu.

"Quickly let Hengzhou govern the army and let Zhang Wenbiao out of the city! If not, just wait for General Yang Shiwan to send troops to echo with the north and south of our Tang State Army and raze Hengyang City to the ground! Wang Changbao arrived at the gate of Hengyang City and shouted angrily at the defenders of the city.

In Hengyang City, a group of Hengyang guards gathered together to discuss countermeasures, and when they heard the sergeant who sent the message saying that the Tang Army was going to send troops to attack Hengyang, they immediately panicked, and they already had the idea of peace talks.

"Zhang Shi, it is impossible for your father to come forward to negotiate peace with Tang Guo now! If you continue to wait like this, I am afraid that Tang Guo will really spare no effort to attack Hengyang! It was Li Cun, the captain of the Hengyang Army, who spoke, and Li Cun was frightened, as if he was afraid of hearing that Tang Guo would destroy Nanping in no less than three days.

"What are you afraid of! It's a big deal that everyone is dead and the net is broken, and Hengyangcheng is burned, and the Tang Army will not be half cheap! Zhang Xingde, the commander of the army, slapped the table and became angry.

"That's right! Didn't Tang Jun have a big appetite and wanted to eat Hengyang City! I'll wait for him to die and the net will be broken, even if the jade is burned and the river Hengyang City is burned, I won't leave him the sweetness! ”

"Don't even think about digging your own grave! I can't tell...... Tang Guo is really seeking common benefits with us, otherwise, it would not just besiege and not attack! Now...... It's better to negotiate with Tang Guo first, and then decide whether to stick to Hengyang! While everyone was waiting for the battle, Zhang Wenbiao's strategist Zhao Shicheng suddenly stepped forward and spoke warmly to Zhang Shi.

Zhang Shi also wanted to avoid a war with the Tang army, but he remembered what Zhang Wenbiao told him before: My son should remember that although Hengzhou is now my Zhang family's henchmen, but most of them are the generals who fought with me when they were in Tanzhou.

"A corrupt Confucian who is greedy for life and afraid of death also dares to enter the court and talk about military affairs! If you are afraid of death, you can go out of the city to find a Tang man to flatter! Zhang Xingde was already dissatisfied with Zhao Shicheng, a Wenchen who only said but did not do anything, and now saw that Zhang Wenbiao was not in the hall, and scolded Zhao Shicheng angrily with his throat.

In fact, he couldn't complain that Zhang Xingde excluded Zhao Shicheng, just because he was the only Confucian scholar in Hengyang City, and Chu was still martial, and because of the previous few festival envoys such as Liu Yan and Uncle Pan, they all ascended to the throne through the assistance of military generals.

At this point, these generals all thought that the change of the position of the lord of Wuping was like child's play, and they only needed to raise troops and make trouble through the military future. It's like you can't fit into a circle, because it's not the kind of person's reason.

Zhao Shicheng is an outlier in this general's hall, and he is also admonished for the consideration of Hengyang, but a group of generals are here, he is not guilty, and he becomes guilty when he says a word.

"Zhang Xingde! Don't be unreasonable to your husband! Zhang Shi remembered his father Zhang Wenbiao's explanation, but he still patiently continued to let Zhao Shicheng continue to express his opinions.

"General Zhang... The Tang State offended the Song State, and all the actions it did must have been for the purpose of planning for the future War of Resistance against the Song Dynasty! We can indeed use the weakness of the Tang State to turn enemies into friends, so that the Tang State Army can be used by our Wuping! ”

Zhao Shicheng still had some city governments, and he knew that it was useless to argue with these generals, so he simply bypassed Zhang Xingde directly, and continued to persuade Hengyang at this time.

"For Wu Ping's use? Mr. Zhao, the Tang army is heavy, how to ... Make the Tang Army available to Wuping? Please sir teach me! ”

"General Zhang... The Tang State no longer has time to use large-scale wars to expand its territory and strengthen its national strength, and now sending a big man like Liu Renzhen to Hengyang must be to find a support for the future resistance to the Song Dynasty! Zhao Shicheng raised his eyebrows slightly and thought slightly.

To put it bluntly, Zhao Shicheng's assessment of the Tang Kingdom now is half-understood, and this is not strange, the entire Hengyang City is such a Confucian student, or a half-hanger, in contrast to the military generals with extreme personalities, so Zhang Wenbiao feels that Zhao Shicheng has great power, a good strategy, and a big plan.

Then, Zhao Shicheng's consideration, it is obvious that the Tang State did not dare to launch a large-scale war at this time, although the main force of the Song State in the north was in the north to deal with Yelu Shulu's cavalry, but at this time the south was still staring at Li Yu and waiting for an opportunity, but after all, the Southern Tang Dynasty had the Yangtze River natural danger, if the hidden danger of the Yangtze River moat was not solved, the Song State would not dare to raise troops to the south easily, otherwise it would give Yelu Shulu an opportunity.

At this time, the Tang State blatantly launched a large-scale annexation war against Wuping, not to mention that it would cause hatred among the civilians of Wuping, and it would also force the Southern Han and Western Shu States to react in self-defense, even if Wu Yueguo, who had just married the Tang State, might not be able to sit still.

Zhao Shicheng's analysis of the situation of the Tang Kingdom is reasonable and well-founded, but as for Li Yu's thoughts, he really didn't guess accurately.

......

"Over there in Yuanzhou, hasn't Liu Rengen sent the news yet?"

"Returning to the Holy Lord, General Liu has been closely watching Zhang Wenbiao's movements in Chenzhou... The garrison has not slackened for five days..."

Because of Zhang Wenbiao's uncertain factor, Zhang Shi and others in Hengyang City became more and more panicked at this time, Wang Changbao, the Tang State supervisor outside the gate of Hengyang City, was unstable, and Liu Renzhen in Yuanzhou Shanggao City was also becoming more and more nervous.

Not only that, Li Yu in Jinling City was also a little unable to sit still, and summoned Han Xizai, Pan You and others in the political hall to discuss what Tang Guo should do next in view of the current emergency.

"I... There is no need for you to wait to tell Liu Renzhen to do his best for Datang, I just need the result! Zhang Wenxian is what his plan is, whether he has gone south to seek reinforcements from the Southern Han Dynasty, I need a quasi-letter! ”

Li Yu suddenly refuted Han Xizai, Han Xizai and Liu Renzhen often looked at each other during deliberations, and at this time, Han Xizai defended Liu Renzhen, either he was really worried that Liu Renzhen would be questioned by Li Yu, or he was asking for a favor from Liu Renzhen.

"General Liu... In the letter, he said that Zhang Wenbiao refused to leave the city for five consecutive days, but he never openly contradicted our Tang army! He also said that he would give Hengyang City another half a day, and if Zhang Wenbiao still did not go out of the city to negotiate with the Tang army, he would use force to force Zhang Wenbiao to give in..."After Han Xizai was refuted, he obviously lost the confidence to speak, and there was obviously a trace of sadness in his eyes.

"Shengshang, the plan drawn up at that time was originally to be in the south and in the north, and Lin Renzhao in the north of Wuping attacked Sanjiangkou by force and then entered Changsha Mansion to negotiate peace, but if Hengyang is attacked by force, then Changsha Mansion in the north will react, and I may be able to see that my Tang Dynasty intends to cause civil strife in Wuping!" Shang Shu, who had not been favored by the king for a long time, shot Xu Xuan and suddenly got up at this time to speak.

"What Xu Qing said is true, if it is a blatant attack on Hengyang for no reason, Wuping Changsha Mansion will definitely be aware of it, and then my Datang's encroachment policy will fall short!" Li Yu's expression opened slightly, and he turned his head to Xu Xuan in agreement.

"Holy... Zhang Wenbiao can't come forward, this is really unpredictable, General Liu wants to attack Hengyang by force, it is also a helpless move, if you wait any longer, the situation of my Tang Kingdom is worrying! Shang Shucheng Pan You only sighed, and said earnestly to Li Yu.

"Zhang Wenbiao... Zhang Wenbiao... I really underestimated him! ”

At this time, not only did Li Yu faintly hate Zhang Wenbiao, but Liu Renzhen was also uneasy because of Zhang Wenbiao's big trouble, and the position of hussar general that he had fought hard for was also likely to be removed by Li Yu because of Zhang Wenbiao's hidden danger. Once he returns from Yuanzhou in vain, Liu Weihuo, who has just been named a noble concubine, may also fall out of favor......

"General Liu! There is a movement in Hengyang! Just when Liu Renzhen was worried, a small general suddenly entered the account, and said respectfully to Liu Renzhen in words and deeds.

PS: In the past two days, because of the move, the number of words has to be a little less, and the second is probably the end of the move, thank you for your understanding.
