Huiji, Juzhang County

Xie Zhan was discussing with his subordinates, and at this time, his subordinates came down to report, "Governor of Dadu, the King of Jin gave Qu Tao to Pingzhou!" ”

"What?" Xie Nan exclaimed.

"And it's for free!" The subordinate who came to report emphasized. It's crazy outside, even if he doesn't say it now, the Governor will still know later.

Jiang Boya looked at Xie Zhan.

At present, the Pingzhou Expeditionary Force only occupies Dongtai County and Jiangdu in Xuzhou, facing the sea in the east and Qutao in the south.

When they encircled and suppressed the king of Jin, they let Xie Wei lead his troops to deploy heavy troops in the northwest of the Pingzhou Expeditionary Army.

They unanimously felt that sooner or later Pingzhou would attack Qu Tao and capture Qu Tao.

Unexpectedly, Qu Tao did fall into the hands of Pingzhou, but in such an unexpected way.

Xie Zhan pinched his eyebrows, understanding that King Jin was planning to take the initiative to shrink the front. The talented disciples under the command of King Jin are not wine bags and rice bags, but there are still capable people.

Hearing this, Xie Nan was not angry, "Pingzhou has become a bargain." ”

They have bothered to attack the East China Sea, and this city should be in their possession.

Jiang Boya said in his heart that the imperial court beat the king of Jin so hard, and when the king of Jin contracted the battle line, he gave the city on the edge to Pingzhou, which seemed to be understandable.

If you are someone else, in order to vent your anger and disgust the court by the way, you will do the same.

General Liu Mao said, "Governor, the troops withdrawn by the King of Jin from Qutao will definitely be invested in other cities, so that the defense of these cities will increase, and it will be more difficult for us to attack the city." ”

Xie Zhan said, "Inform Dong Guowei and Wei Kuang to speed up the encirclement and suppression." ”

"As for the Pingzhou Expeditionary Force, don't worry, the grain route in Pingzhou has been cut off, it doesn't matter how much territory the King of Jin has given them." Xie Zhan said lightly.

Hearing this, everyone's confidence instantly soared. Yes, without supplies, what if the Pingzhou Expeditionary Force is capable?

It's just two grasshoppers huddling together after autumn.

After discussing the matter, Xie Zhan let everyone disperse.

At this time, he was the only one left in the council chamber.

Different from the calm and powerful he showed just now, he looked at the map and frowned.

Xie Zhan always knew that there was not much time left for him.

Now that King Jin has taken this move, I have to admit that this move is right.

In addition, his original strategic plan was to quickly destroy the king of Jin and then encircle and suppress the Pingzhou expeditionary force. Now it seems that the strategic plan may need to be adjusted.

When fighting, especially defensively, the size and depth of the territory are very important.

Now that the King of Jin can give the first city to the Pingzhou Expeditionary Army, he can give the second one! He had to guard against it.

In addition, there is the problem of grain and grass for the Pingzhou Expeditionary Army, in addition to the grain route of ship supply, is it possible to supply the Pingzhou Expeditionary Force on land? Xie Zhan felt that it was impossible, because he had deployed heavy troops in the northwest of the Pingzhou Expeditionary Force, and he did not find any grain and grass transportation teams.

In this way, unless the king of Jin is willing to help them, as far as he knows, the king of Jin is not rich in grain and grass.

Xie Zhan finally decided to speed up the attack. Martial arts in the world are only fast and unbreakable, and the same is true for wars. If they can destroy the King of Jin with the power of thunder, it will be much easier to deal with the Pingzhou Expeditionary Force again, and they can't give time for the two to reconcile together!

In addition, after Jiang Boya came out, he thought about it and raised his leg to go to Dong Jichuan.

When Xie Zhan went to the East China Sea, he brought Dong Jichuan with him.

When he thought about it later, he felt that such a counselor should not be left behind.

First, he has not yet subdued it, and secondly, in order to be able to subdue it, the restrictions on him are not strict. If Dong Jichuan has bad intentions, he can easily mess up his rear.

Therefore, before leaving, he felt that it was inappropriate, so he took it with him.

When Jiang Boya arrived, he found Dong Jichuan pruning a dwarf pine with a pair of small scissors.

"You're still comfortable." Jiang Boya sighed.

Dong Jichuan didn't raise his head, "You can too." ”

"I can't, I was born to work hard." Jiang Boya shook his head, his face sad.

Dong Jichuan was happy, "Are you worried about the Jin King Bai sending a city to Pingzhou?" ”

Jiang Boya glanced at him, not surprised that he knew about it, after all, it was all spread outside. Besides, is he worried about the fact that King Jin gave Pingzhou a city in vain? He is worried about the hidden dangers behind him.

Needless to say, this news must have come from King Jin's side, and the purpose was to anger them.

Jiang Boya was right, this news was indeed spread by the King of Jin, and after Qin Zhao, Guo Chong and others found out, they just added another fire.

"Don't worry, it's too early to worry."

This kind of thing is estimated to happen again in the future.

Both are smart people.

Of course, Jiang Boya understood what he had not said.

"Brother Dong, don't you really consider joining the command of the Metropolitan Governor?" Jiang Boya changed the subject.

Dong Jichuan replied in a hurry, "King Cheng's bones are not cold, I don't want to think about these now." ”

Jiang Boya stared at him and asked, "Brother Dong, to be honest, do you want to vote for Pingzhou?" ”

"That's what you said, not what I said." Dong Jichuan neither admits nor denies.

Jiang Boya went to Pingzhou, and he can now see that Pingzhou will be a big trouble for the imperial court and the governor.

"I admit that Pingzhou is good, but since ancient times, there have been many people who have done things, and how many people have succeeded?"

"After two hundred years, the Dali Imperial Court has had all kinds of drawbacks, but the country's heritage is there." It is forbidden to build, and it is impossible for a behemoth to fall down easily.

"Now with the assistance of Governor Xie Dadu, Dali is expected to reappear in a prosperous world. At this time, it is also the time for you and me to make contributions. ”

Regarding Jiang Boya's persuasion, Dong Jichuan smiled and said, "Objectively speaking, as far as the current situation is concerned, the chances of the imperial court and Pingzhou are five or five. ”

The imperial court and Pingzhou are actually the relationship between a diseased tree and a small tree, the diseased tree needs dead wood in spring, and the small tree also needs the opportunity to grow into a towering tree.

"I admit that Xie Dadu is unparalleled in his wisdom, but the one in Pingzhou is not bad." Just look at the performance of the Pingzhou Expeditionary Force.

Dong Jichuan, Jiang Boya and others could vaguely see that Xie Zhan wanted to take the path of blackmailing the Son of Heaven to order the princes, although he had no signs yet.

Jiang Boya frowned, Dong Jichuan actually gave such a high evaluation?

"Pingzhou has a shallow foundation, and most of the people who are currently showing their prominence and occupying high positions in Pingzhou are from Pinghan, and they have little experience in governing local areas." There will inevitably be detours.

Sometimes, a thriving emerging power can be wiped out with just one wrong decision.

In general, Jiang Boya is more optimistic about the imperial court, no, it should be said that he is better looking at the imperial court assisted by Xie Zhan.

"You say yes, yes." Dong Jichuan shrugged his shoulders and stopped arguing with him.

It's just a chapter tonight, good night everyone.
