Zhaoyi Jiedu made the state of Luzhou, and the entire territory of Weibo was captured by the Pinglu army, and the news had already reached here. Kang Chengqian, the envoy of Zhaoyi Jiedu, who has been paying close attention to the battle situation in Weibo, has been discussing with his confidants and generals how to deal with it in the past few days.

Unlike Cao Zhongming, a military man who started his own army, Kang Chengqian was born as a scholar, and he didn't have so much domineering, but he looked more like a middle-aged Confucian student.

He looked at the staff in the hall with a worried face, and said with a worried face: "King An has gathered a large army in Weizhou, and he will soon arrive in Zhaoyi, and the envoy of the king of Longxi County has also arrived, and he is in the mansion." What should Zhaoyi do, what do you think, it's up to this, but it doesn't hurt to say it. ”

This issue has been discussed many times, and at different times, the opinions of the staff have also differed. At the beginning, everyone's opinions were similar to Wei Bo's, and they all felt that the world of great contention was the time to make great achievements, and they could not let King An enter the country, putting Zhaoyi in danger.

Li Ye was ordered to march into Hedong, although the division is famous, but outsiders don't buy it at all, Li Ye, who is in charge of Shandong, and the capital who controls the world's soldiers and horses, and no festival envoy takes it seriously.

In the final analysis, after the Huangchao Rebellion, everyone no longer takes the imperial court seriously, and now they are looking at the strength, and naturally they will not pay attention to the false names of the imperial court.

After Kang Chengqian asked, the staff in the hall all turned their eyes to an old man with majestic eyebrows. That is the history of the governor of the Jiedu Embassy, Kang Xiqi, who is still Kang Chengqian's uncle, and his status in Zhaoyi has always been noble, and even Kang Chengqian has to pay respect. He did not speak, and no one dared to speak.

Prior to this, Kang Xiqi had a very tough attitude and advocated the use of troops outside the territory.

Kang Xiyi's reason is very sufficient: Even if the Pinglu army enters the country, even if it does not attempt to Zhaoyi, it will be a military disaster, and who knows what kind of chaos will be caused? If Li Ye has a tough attitude and in the name of the imperial court, let the Zhaoyi army fight together and let Zhaoyi provide grain and grass, then Zhaoyi should obey the order? Therefore, Kang Xigui believes that he should keep in touch with Hedong and reject the Pinglu army together.

Of course, Zhaoyi could not let the Hedong Army enter the country, so once the Zhaoyi Army and the Pinglu Army fought, Li Keyong had to provide food and ordnance to the Zhaoyi Army. This is also the reason why the envoy of Hedong will come to the Jiedu Embassy.

After each generous speech, Kang Xiqi will end with the same eight words: Rather for the broken jade than for the whole tile!

Sensing that everyone was looking over, Kang Xiqi, who had been closing his eyes and recuperating, slowly opened his eyes. Although he is old, he is getting stronger and stronger, especially his eyes, which always shine with a majestic light that cannot be disobeyed.

At this moment, Kang Xiqi glanced around at everyone, still in the same righteous manner, and the words he said were also loud: "The old man suggests that King An enter the country!"

As soon as these words came out, there was silence in the hall.

Most of the staff's faces were surprised and shocked, and some of them had confused eyes, as if they were suspecting that they had heard it wrong, or whether Kang Xiqi had said the wrong thing. But looking at Kang Xiqi's awe-inspiring color, where would it look like he was saying the wrong thing?

Everyone looked at each other, and they all saw the doubts in each other's eyes. It's not that no one has made this proposal before, but it definitely won't be Kang Xiqi. Before that, no one would have thought that Kang Xiqi would have such a proposal.

The judge of the Jiedu Envoy Mansion said uncertainly: "What does Changshi mean that Zhaoyi not only does not resist the Pinglu army, but also takes the initiative to welcome King An into the country?"

Kang Xiqi snorted coldly, as if he was very dissatisfied with the judge's suspicion, which was the same as questioning his old eyes. And in fact, Kang Xiqi was a powerhouse of the ninth layer of Qi cultivation, and his dissatisfied cold snort brought out the power of cultivation, which immediately filled the hall with oppression.

The staff members affirmed Kang Xiqi's opinion, not only did they not have doubts, but they were even more puzzled.

Kang Xiqi bowed his hand to Kang Chengqian, and the next words directly caused an uproar in the hall, only to see him solemnly said: "Not only to greet, but also to personally go to the border to greet him!"

"What, let the envoy personally greet you?"

"Not out of the city to greet each other, but to the border?"

"The greeting gift, thirty miles out of the city, is already the top of the sky, this time I actually let the envoy go to the border?!"

The staff could no longer suppress the shock in their hearts, and they exchanged heads and talked about each other.

When Kang Chengqian heard this, although he was also puzzled, he didn't have an extraordinary look, just a wry smile on his face.

A young clerk who joined the army stood up, clasped his fists at Kang Chengqian and the others, looked excited, and made an impassioned statement: "The lower officials dare not agree with what the long history says! At present, the troubled times are coming, the imperial court exists in name only, and the feudal towns in the world, who is the strongest? Not the Xuanwu Army, not the Pinglu Army, but the Hedong Army! Why? The Hedong Army has a vast territory, with 11 prefectures and a large number of people! The Hedong Army has 300,000 armor soldiers, and there is also the Daibei Army, and its combat strength is particularly strong, and there are even Shatuo elite cavalry, and it is invincible!"

"Those who are east of the river, the land of the three Jin Dynasty. It has a favorable geographical location, overlooks the world, is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and Taiyuan Mansion is a place with deep walls and ditches, and the soldiers are in danger! In such a way in Hedong, King An only brought 100,000 Pinglu troops, so why did he dare to say that he would attack? He asked Li Ke to go to Qingzhou to report on his work, which was already difficult for a strong man, and it was even more a trumped-up charge to say that Li Ke used his troops to rebel! King An entered Hedong because he knew that he could not do it! Imagine it, why did he do this?

"There is no other reason, the army in Hedong is just an excuse, King An's real intention is to use the name of sending troops to Hedong to annex neighboring feudal towns and expand his own power!"

"King An and Li Keyong have always had a feud, and this time he sent troops, in the final analysis, it is just a personal grudge! Right now, he just wants to occupy the two towns of Weibo and Zhaoyi, so as to lay the foundation for a real fight with Li Keyong in the future! Therefore, King An's wolf ambition is clearly revealed! He must not be allowed to enter Zhaoyi! If the Lian envoy welcomes the Pinglu army into Zhaoyi, how is it tantamount to luring a wolf into the house? If so, Zhaoyi is in danger!"

The words of joining the army, which were said in a subdued tone and frustration, were full of emotion, which can be described as reasonable and unrefutable.

The staff in the hall, whether they liked him or not, were infected by his spirit, and many people showed admiration. In any case, this demeanor is indeed extraordinary. There are also those who fall into deep thought.

This person joined the army, surnamed Guo Zhangming, and I heard that he was a descendant of Guo Ziyi. Although he is still young, he is the most famous young talent in Zhaoyi. On weekdays, Kang Chengqian is very kind to him, and he has the intention of re-cultivating. If it weren't for his extraordinary status and his own talents, he wouldn't dare to disobey Kang Xiqi.

Of course, there is another reason for this. Kang Xiqi had always been on the same front with him before, and he resolutely resisted the entry of the Pinglu Army. Kang Xiqi suddenly "turned back", which surprised Guo Zhangming, and also made him feel betrayed, so he couldn't sit still.

After listening to Guo Zhangming's heartfelt words, Kang Xiqi was not touched at all, but snorted coldly, still sitting without moving, only glanced at Guo Zhangming lightly, and asked: "Zhaoyi has a soldier?"

Guo Zhangming was stunned for a moment, realized Kang Xiqi's intentions, and immediately said loudly: "Although Zhaoyi does not have a soldier, the soldiers are loyal and ......brave."

"The old man asked if you had any. You just have to answer yes or no. Kang Xiqi coldly interrupted Guo Zhangming's words.

Guo Zhangming's face turned red, and he wanted to speak again, so excited that he couldn't help himself. Zhaoyi is in the north of the Yellow River, has not experienced the Huangchao Rebellion, and is not a border land, there are few wars, where are the generals?

"No, but ......" Guo Zhangming still wanted to say something.

Kang Xiqi did not give him a chance to speak, but looked directly at him and asked: "On the banks of the Yellow River, with 3,000 elite cavalry, 10,000 cavalry of Wei Bo's army were defeated in one round of charge, and it even showed the cultivation of a general!

Guo Zhangming opened his mouth and was speechless.

On that day, Shangguan Allure fought a battle on the bank of the Yellow River with absolutely inferior troops, and defeated Cao Xijin in front of him, and he had already become famous in the first battle! There are many feudal towns in the world, and it is not that there are no generals, but there are generals...... Looking at the whole world, there is no one who is now emerging as a so-called famous general and brave general, who dares to say that he can resist Shangguan Allure head-on, let alone defeat it!

Guo Zhangming's face was ugly, but Kang Xiqi had no intention of letting him go, and continued to ask: "If it's just a Shangguan Allure, then that's it." Old man, let me ask you, over the years, has the Zhaoyi Army experienced bloody battles, and there are a group of invincible real elites?"

"I, a soldier of the Zhaoyi Army, am also a ...... who fights bravely" Guo Zhangming's voice obviously has no confidence, he is just trying to save face.

Kang Xiqi sneered: "The Zhaoyi army fought bravely, how is it compared to the Wei Bo army? In the battle of Bozhou, 50,000 Wei Bo troops defended a city, and it was conquered in a few days, and 50,000 reinforcements were taken! Who can stop such a Pinglu army?"

Guo Zhangming was speechless.

Kang Xiqi glanced at everyone in the hall, his eyes were like electricity, "The old man asks again, can Zhaoyi have a great monk in the real realm?"

No one spoke. Touching Kang Xiqi's gaze, the staff members unconsciously lowered their heads. Wei Bo only has Cao Zhongming's real human realm, and he is still a new breakthrough, Zhaoyi is already weaker than Wei Bo, where is there any real human realm.

Kang Xiqi's voice gradually brought a chill: "In the battle of Weizhou, King An went straight to the mansion of the envoy of Wei Bojiedu, and in front of everyone's eyes, he picked off Cao Zhongming's head! At that time, everyone saw it, but there were four real realms! Four real realms, what does this mean? If King An repeats his old tricks and comes to my Zhaoyi Jiedu Envoy's mansion, who will protect the incorruptible envoy? Who can protect the incorruptible envoy?!"

When the last sentence came out, the needle drop was already heard in the hall, and Guo Zhangming also lowered his head.

"It's right to join the army, King An's ambition is obvious, but so what? Even if you and I both know it, who can help him?"

Kang Xiqi's voice was cold, and he unconsciously had a killing intent, "King An is powerful, even if he wants Zhaoyi, what can we do? In the final analysis, King An is not afraid that we will see through his intentions at all, because it is useless to see through it! He is an upright conspiracy, he has this strength, and if he doesn't obey, he will die! Everyone here, who wants to die? Who wants to kill the Lian envoy? Cao Zhongming's experience from the past is not bloody enough, and it is not enough for you to recognize the reality?!"

After saying a few words, Kang Xizhi said that the murderous intent was overflowing.

The hall was full of staff, and no one had the heart to refute it, because there was no way to refute it. Many people are secretly wiping their sweat, only to feel that their backs are cold.

Kang Xiqi looked at Kang Chengqian and arched his hand: "Honest envoy, now that the Pinglu army has gathered in Weizhou, it will soon come to me Zhaoyi, and at this moment, the honest envoy must come out to greet him! The royal army is the army of the king, not because they have a righteous name, but because they are strong enough! The honest envoy welcomes the royal division, and he is a loyal minister of the Tang Dynasty. If the honest envoy is conscientious, King An will rely on it, or at least he will not be embarrassed! This is the way to protect the honest envoy and protect the righteousness! On the contrary, it is to repeat the mistakes of Wei Bo!"

Kang Chengqian nodded, and had to admit that this was the reality. Seeing that the staff had no objections, and knew that the matter was agreed, he stood up and saluted Kang Xiqi, "Thank you Changshi for teaching me." ”

After saluting, he looked at everyone and made a decision: "Prepare the things of the labor army, and the official will personally welcome King An and the king!"

The staff looked at each other, got up one after another, and saluted Kang Chengqian: "The honest envoy is wise!"

Kang Chengqian sighed secretly, "Next, let's discuss how to cooperate with King An to fight." ”

In fact, Zhaoyi has another way, that is, to form an alliance with Hedong. However, if the Hedong Army does not enter the country, Zhaoyi still can't defeat the Pinglu Army, and if the Hedong Army enters, not to mention the battle situation, the Zhaoyi Army will first be charged with rebellion, which is a hidden danger.

In addition, if the Hedong Army wins, will Li Keyong not take advantage of the situation to plot righteousness? No one dares to guarantee it. Even if Li Ke promises it, no one will believe it.

Right now, Li Ye is begging Li Keyong, it is a fight between the gods, and Zhaoyi has no way to meet the source left and right, so he can only choose one side to rely on.

Since you want to be a minion, you are naturally the minions of the stronger side, so that it is possible to get some soup. There are generals in the army, there are elite divisions, and there are four real people in the Pinglu army, of course, they are the strong side.
