After suffering half of the envoys, Zhang Wenbiao was ready to surrender, and almost all the officials in the Tang court were dissolute. And the day of the surrender of this document seems to have a different meaning for Li Yu.

For Zhang Wenbiao in Hengzhou, no matter what, Li Yu's attitude towards him was indifferent, and even abusive. Even if he has shown extraordinary sincerity.

Or, Zhang Wenbiao saw that Li Yu had already guessed that he would be cornered, and he had no choice but to enter Jinling to find Li Yu to save his life, so Li Yu seemed to be waiting for work, and he had prepared everything early to stay in Jinling, just waiting for Zhang Wenbiao to throw himself into the net.

A few days ago

"Holy Lord, Zhang Wenbiao still doesn't show up! General Liu's army in Yuanzhou has been completed, and he can send troops to attack Hengyang City at any time, and then move Zhou Baoquan to quickly send Yang Shiwan to lead his troops south, so that he can take advantage of the Song State to attack the Northern Han Dynasty and annex a country again! In order to strengthen the national strength of our Tang Dynasty. ”

Pan You kept his head and looked at Li Yu in the imperial tent at a loss, although he didn't know why Li Yu wanted to summon himself, but in his own considerations, he really couldn't wait any longer at the moment.

"I naturally know that the situation is urgent, and there is not much time left for my Datang, but if I send my Datang army to attack Hengzhou City, there will inevitably be some casualties, to put it seriously, take a Hengyang City, Datang will lose as many as 10,000 soldiers, I feel that it is not a good strategy to attack!" Li Yu wiped the sweat from his forehead, turned his head and threw the hot towel to Li Yuanzhen on the side, and said sternly to Pan You.

"Holy... The minister knows that the use of troops by the saint has never been at a loss to the Tang State, but at this time and that time, it is indeed a miracle to take Nanping without spending troops, however, the situation in Wuping is different from Nanping! Holy on... Aren't you still waiting for Zhang Wenbiao and Zhou Baoquan to start a civil war first? Pan You was stunned in the camp, thought for a moment, and spoke softly again.

"I know that there will be a battle between them, and Zhang Wenbiao knows that he is not the opponent of Changsha Mansion at this time, so he will naturally go to ask for help."

"Zhang Wenbiao still refuses to negotiate peace at this time, and will inevitably ask for assistance from other countries..."

At this time, it was the fourth day of Liu Ren's troops in Yuanzhou, and Zhang Wenbiao's delay in showing up made Pan You and Li Ping a little anxious, but it was already the fourth day, and Zhang Wenbiao had not yet negotiated with the Yuanzhou army of Tang State, nor had he made any other moves, which showed that Zhang Wenbiao did take Tang State as an alternative, and now Zhang Wenbiao did not get any exact promises in Western Shu and Southern Han.

At this point, Zhang Wenbiao had no help in the west, helpless in the south, and knew that it was not Yang Shiwan's opponent, and the Tang army had been in Yuanzhou ready to move, so Zhang Wenbiao's subsequent movements were divided into two kinds, the first was to seek reinforcements from the Southern Han Dynasty, and at the same time he was worried that the weak Southern Han army was not the opponent of the Tang Army, so he would inevitably come to negotiate peace with the Tang Army.

The second is to perceive that Liu Gang has no intention of fighting for hegemony at all, and he will not get involved in the affairs of Wuping, so he will inevitably rush into Jinling to seek help from the Tang State.

"Pan Qing, whether it was Chuzhou before or Nanping not long ago, I wanted to conquer in person, but this time, I sat in Jinling, don't you know why?" Li Yu suddenly interrupted Pan You, who wanted to stop talking, and laughed softly.

"Could it be... Won the battle of Wuping, and Shengshang also has a layout in Jinling? ”

"Jinling's bureau is very important, once Jinling's bureau starts, Wuping will be in civil strife... Not far off. ”

......

"Zhang Wenbiao, can you think clearly, did you die in Hengyang? Or go north to Changsha? Li Yu leaned down lightly and looked at Zhang Wenbiao with a smile, anyone could see that Li Yu was clearly hiding a knife in his smile, and he was afraid that Zhang Wenbiao would say a sentence that would make Li Yu dissatisfied, and he might die in Jinling.

"Minister... No, Minister Zhang Wenbiao, swear to follow the Tang Dynasty to the death, and is willing to capture Changsha for the Holy Lord and take the entire Wuping! Zhang Wenbiao was a little nervous when asked, and then trembled and bowed his head and replied.

"Very well, you are obedient, I... Just love an obedient dog like you! From now on, you're one of my dogs! After Zhang Wenbiao made his statement, Li Yu chuckled and returned to the dragon chair with a leisurely attitude. Go back to your Hengyang, remember, on the second day of your return, you will immediately send troops north to attack Changsha! ”

"Dare to ask the Holy One... Tang Army, when will we be dispatched to help me capture Changsha..."Zhang Wenbiao asked with a little panic.

At this time, Zhang Wenbiao was naturally worried that Li Yu would stab him in the back, for fear that he would fight with Yang Shiwan's army and be profited by Li Yu.

"The Tang army will naturally send troops at the right time, but I do need a good dog, but I don't need a useless waste, if you can't even beat the three passes south of Changsha, I... But I don't need you. The irony of Li Yu's sentence means that it is really obvious, this Zhang Wenbiao is a person who is waiting to be cut with his neck stretched at this time, although he is resentful, there is no other way.

"Holy rest assured! After two days, the minister will definitely connect the three passes, and go straight to Changsha Mansion, and then ask the saint to send troops to help me wipe out the whole clan of Zhou Xingfeng, so as to prevent future troubles! ”

Zhang Wenbiao raised his head and eyes and said respectfully to Li Yu.

Later, seeing Li Yu closed his eyes and pillowed his head and was silent, he also knew that Li Yu was driving himself out of Jinling, so he got up and said, "Minister Zhang Wenbiao retires, and after Wenbiao returns to the city, he will send troops immediately!" I will not let the Holy One down! ”

Let's say that after Zhang Wenbiao left Jinling, it was the real beginning of the civil strife in Wuping, so when Li Yu was laying out, he guessed that Zhang Wenbiao was a clandestine and slippery person.

If the troops directly enter Yuanzhou and approach Hengyang, Zhang Wenbiao will definitely not come out to negotiate at the first time, but to let him come forward, it will naturally require coercion from both sides, first of all, Liu Rengan's Yuanzhou army is ready to come out at any time, which directly causes visual pressure on Zhang Wenbiao. The second is to mobilize Zhou Baoquan to send troops south as quickly as possible, which is psychological pressure.

It was a coincidence, when Lin Renzhao entered Changsha Mansion and negotiated peace with Zhou Baoquan on the second day, Changsha Mansion issued three obituaries in succession, forcing Zhang Wenbiao to go to Yongzhou in the south of Wuping to take up his post.

Zhang Wenbiao just walked out of the gate of the Jinling Imperial City, and then passed by Liu Chongliang, who came quickly, or said that fate cannot be forced, when you want to see someone, you can't see it, and when you don't want to see someone, he is inexplicably bright in front of you.

Not long after Liu Chongliang rubbed shoulders with Zhang Wenbiao's envoys, he became suspicious, looked back at Zhang Wenbiao and the others, and felt that this Wenbiao was really familiar.

Zhang Wenbiao really guessed that the person who rubbed shoulders with him must be someone sent by Yuan Zhou, turned around and smiled at Liu Chongliang, and then turned back and led the envoys to leave.

"Big brother! What did Li Yu say about that kid? Will you send troops to help us capture Changsha Mansion? The brothers behind Zhang Wenbiao were full of questions, they naturally knew that Li Yu was not easy to deal with, but Zhang Wenbiao's eyes were like a spring breeze when he left the city.

"Li Yu saw that I was desperate in Hengyang City, so he opened his mouth and wanted me to take down Changsha Mansion for him, and then annex Wuping!" Zhang Wen didn't reply, and said directly.

"I know that he didn't have a good heart in Yuan Zhou! That... What do we do after that! Could it be... Is it just like that? Wang Jinping, the former secretary of Hengyang City on the right side of Zhang Wenbiao, said discouragedly.

"Naturally... It cannot be left to the mercy of Li Yu. Some time ago, this general sent someone to borrow from the Western Shu State and sent a message to Fuzhou of the Song State, Li Chuyun of Fangzhou, and Murong Yanzhao! ”

"When did the eldest brother send a message to Song Guoye? That... Tang Guo Li Yu can't believe it, so can Song Guo trust it? Wang entered the screen, his expression was slightly condensed, and then he frowned.

"Zhao Kuangyin is different from Li Yu, Zhao Kuangyin treats the generals, not only does not kill, but also may be reused!"

"What the eldest brother said is extremely true, but I feel that Li Yu's treatment of Li Chongjin, a demoted general, can be regarded as reuse!" Wang Jin frowned slightly again, cautious.

"Li Chongjin brought 30,000 soldiers and horses, and he had an insulting enmity against Emperor Zhao Kuangyin of the Song Dynasty, so Li Yu could leave this chess piece that could be controlled! For the rest of him, Li Yu can't be said to be ruthless! If we really listen to Li Yu's words, Gao Jichong, the king of Nanping, will be a lesson from the past! ”

It was precisely because Zhang Wenbiao was desperate and knew that Li Yu could guess his situation, so before setting off for Jinling, he went west from Hengzhou and made a detour to the north of Xishu to send a message to the Song State.

Originally, after passing through Jiangzhou in the Tang Kingdom, he then sent a message to the Song Kingdom by the way, but he found that there were strict troops guarding all parts of the Tang Kingdom, and he was afraid that he would be caught by Li Yu, so he decided to use the Shu Road to send a message to the Song Kingdom.

In any case, Hengzhou, which was originally a dead chess, did have hope for life when it went through this step.

"Didn't Li Yu think about using my Wuping civil war to save troops to annex Wuping, I Zhang Wenbiao would die! I have to bite Li Yu hard! Don't let him get better! ”
