This time it was Guo Chong who sent the Jin Palace.

After he arrived at the Jin Palace, he received a very high level of courtesy.

It's just that King Jin is late, and so is Bai Xingzhi.

Guo Chong noticed that King Jin's face was dark, and his heart sank inexplicably.

After the king of Jin sat down on the main seat, he let the waiter serve tea.

The two sides exchanged two words, and Guo Chong went straight to the point.

When he reminded the King of Jin to carefully guard the grain and grass in his hands to ensure the stability of the supply, the King of Jin looked at him with sharp eyes, "You came here from Dongtai County on purpose, just to remind this king to carefully guard the grain and grass?" ”

"Yes."

Bai Xingzhi asked, "Why did you suddenly think of reminding us of this question?" ”

Guo Chong immediately informed the two of the speculation of the high-level leaders of the Pingzhou Expeditionary Force that Xie Zhan intended to cut off their food and grass supplies.

Bai Xingzhi and King Jin glanced at each other and sighed, "You're late." ”

"If only your news had arrived sooner."

"We've just finished a big war over there." Guo Chong informed them of Xie Zhance's opposition to Xiang Zhanyuan of the Cao Gang, and Xiang Zhanyuan and the Wave Gang teaming up with the Cao Gang to annex the Cao Gang headquarters.

"You can rest assured, this plan has been seen through by us, and our Pingzhou Expeditionary Force has assisted the Cao Gang Headquarters in repelling the invading enemy. At present, the Tide Gang has retreated to the Beihai and Donglai waters of Qingzhou, and the iron lock is across the river. ”

Hearing Guo Chong say that Xie Zhan had rebelled against Xiang Zhanyuan of the Cao Gang, King Jin and Bai Xingzhi glanced at each other, Xie Zhan also rebelled against a general under King Jin, and only then did he succeed in destroying King Jin's two granaries.

Judging from the timeline, the destruction of the grain and grass of the Cao Gang and the destruction of the grain and grass on their side were carried out at the same time, which shows that Xie Zhan has been planning for a long time.

It can't be said who is involved in this matter, Xie Zhan is shooting at them equally.

"Wait-" King Jin suddenly thought of something, "Is your grain and grass okay?" ”

Their grain and grass had an accident, and the Cao Gang also suffered, but the Pingzhou Expeditionary Force was unharmed.

Guo Chong smiled, how did he answer? Can he say that there isn't much grain and grass on the surface of their Dongtai County? Then Xie Zhan already disdained to calculate how to destroy their grain and grass?

Xiang Zhanyuan betrayed like this, and Xie Zhan should know exactly how much grain and grass they brought with them when the Pingzhou Expeditionary Force came out.

Then how many troops Pingzhou put into the East China Sea, and the approximate consumption of these troops during this period of time, the other side also knows.

Xie Zhan subtracted these consumption from the total grain and grass, and he could completely calculate how much grain and grass they brought out.

Guo Chong can only say that the betrayal of the core members has too much impact.

"Governor Xie probably thinks that our current grain and grass are not worth his help?"

"What do you mean?" King Jin frowned.

Bai Xingzhi glanced at his own prince and motioned for him to say a few words.

King Jin was stunned for a moment, and then remembered that Bai Xingzhi had said that the grain and grass of the Pingzhou Expeditionary Army were not very abundant.

He coughed lightly, was the Pingzhou Expeditionary Force so embarrassed?

If nothing happens to his side of the grain, he can support them a little, now, forget it.

After the matter was finished, Guo Chong said goodbye, they are all busy people, just finish the matter, although he didn't help, but he didn't get nothing from this trip.

Before Guo Chong left, he reminded them, "Xie Zhan should be magnifying his moves, you must be prepared." ”

Hearing this, King Jin's face instantly became gloomy.

Recently, under the strong attack of the imperial army, the king of Jin lost two more cities in succession, and these two cities were from the south.

When he found that these two cities were about to be unable to hold, he didn't think about giving them to Pingzhou, but if they were to Pingzhou, he had to borrow them from them.

To be honest, he felt that the cooperation between the two sides was not so close, and he had to guard against Pingzhou somewhat, in case the other party took advantage of the excuse to pick up the grass and beat the rabbit, then he would be gone.

Bai Xingzhi personally went to see off Guo Chong.

"Please stay. You must have felt the current situation, and I think that we should support each other at this time. ”

"The King of Jin gave us two cities in Pingzhou, and we will always remember his goodness. If King Jin needs help here, feel free to come to us. Guo Chong hinted.

Bai Xingzhi's expression was solemn, and his view of the current situation was not optimistic.

Jumping out of the game, from the perspective of a bystander, the King of Jin has a very small chance of winning against the imperial court.

So far, the two sides have confronted each other, and the territory of the King of Jin has been slowly encroached, and now the King of Jin is just stubbornly resisting.

Today, King Jin's loss is already the trend of the times. This general trend cannot be seen or touched, but it can be felt.

For example, the henchman who was rebelled by Xie Zhan, was King Jin not good to him? No. The betrayal of the other party lies in the weakness of King Jin and the fact that he is not optimistic about King Jin.

When you're weak, everyone can be a threat to you, and when you're strong, your former enemies can turn into your friends.

After Bai Xingzhi sent Guo Chong away, he walked back thinking about these things.

After he came back, the first thing he said when he saw King Jin was, "Lord Wang, have you ever thought about the worst outcome of this battle?" ”

When he asked this question, Bai Xingzhi only felt that his voice was a little sluggish.

King Jin was stunned for a moment, then smiled, "The worst result is just death." ”

Really! "Lord Wang, haven't you considered in-depth cooperation with Pingzhou?"

Bai Xingzhi thought to himself, if the prince had such thoughts, they needed to make plans early. The more capital you have in your hands, the more confident you will be when you negotiate with Heping State.

Otherwise, the hole cards in the hand were played out one by one and consumed when they were competing with the imperial army. If we talk to Pingzhou, it will be difficult to talk.

"Deep cooperation?" King Jin said, "The in-depth cooperation you are talking about is actually attached to Pingzhou, but the name is a little better." ”

Bai Xingzhi was silent, but his heart gradually sank.

"In the final analysis, Pingzhou Lu Songli and Qin Sheng and the like are traitors after all."

"My father is Emperor Kangcheng of Dali Shizong, and my brother is the first prince, how can I submit to Dali's traitors? I cannot disgrace my ancestors. ”

Hearing this, Bai Xingzhi no longer persuaded him, and a trace of sadness couldn't help but rise in his heart. As a noble emperor, King Jin had no shortage of arrogance and arrogance, and letting him submit to Pingzhou was equivalent to breaking his wings and forcing him to kneel to survive. It is not what he wants to live like this.

Changan

Sun Jiajun's new army, as well as the baggage team and the worship team, are ready to go.

The night before departure, Mrs. Sun told Wang Dong that the older generation of the Sun family army like her would stay in Chang'an and would not set off with them.

Wang Dong was shocked when he heard this, "Old lady, didn't we say okay-"

Wang Dong didn't expect that Sun Lao Taijun had a plan.

Old Taijun Sun raised his hand to stop his words, "The reason why we let them go out is that we can only send these juniors out, and there is no reason for the elders to worship the juniors." ”

Wang Jiang naturally knows how far-fetched it is to take away the older generation of Sun Lao Taijun for the reasons that he has declared to the outside world.

And they stayed, also to stabilize the court, "Director Wang, don't underestimate the court and the heroes of the world." ”

Of course, Wang Dong knew that during this time, Chang'an was surging in the dark tide.

"Old lady, I understand your concern, but the current situation is not as dangerous as you think. Let's leave Chang'an together first. ”

"Director Wang, you listen to me about this." Mrs. Sun raised her hand and patted his arm.

Speaking of this, Mrs. Sun smiled, the wrinkles on her face stretched, "We are already very satisfied to be able to send out the younger generation, we can't be too greedy." ”

Wang Dongyi gritted his teeth. He also has a heavy task on his shoulders, and now he has to send it.

"Mrs. Sun, then I'll send them out first. You have to hold on in Chang'an, and the governor won't ignore you. ”

"Okay, you take your time, don't force it."

Wang Dong can only harden his heart and make the final preparations to ensure that nothing goes wrong.
