1163 Fourteen Prefectures of Jiangbei
Li Congjia also knew that Zong Xin was present, and he couldn't do anything about the end of the world. Presumably, even if Zongxin wants to leave, he will leave Shouzhou with Tianya. Now Shouzhou is no longer under the control of Nantang, as long as he goes out of the city, there is no way to take him.
Li Congjia stood in place with a depressed face, he really had no choice. I usually think I'm very powerful, but when it comes to the critical moment...... It turned out to be useless, only to save people. The most depressing thing is that the person who asks for it still doesn't give face.
"I'm dying in a hurry, and you're still talking and laughing here, right?"
"That's right. ”X8
No one looked at Li Congjia in their eyes, because Zongxin's martial arts could ensure that everyone left Shouzhou unharmed. What's more, Li Congjia didn't dare to turn his face with Zong Xin at all, because Zong Xin was the person who couldn't be offended in the world.
Although Lei Hong is not easy to offend, Lei Hong lives in Chang'an anyway, and occasionally goes out to play, no matter how much Lei Hong says, he will have something to do, because he has to collect money.
Zongxin is in a state of seclusion, it doesn't matter where he goes, he is almost running around the world and has nothing to do. Zongxin subconsciously hoped that someone could offend him, so that he could launch a series of revenge acts, which could give him some passion in his idle life.
"Zongxin, you give me a feasible way, otherwise I will rely on you and not leave. Li Congjia really has no choice, only shamelessly relying on Zongxin once. Although this solution survived, he really needed a workable solution.
The method that Tianya just said is absolutely not feasible, how can it be possible to completely give up half of the country just because he lost a battle? The 14 states in Jiangbei are the lifeblood of the Southern Tang Dynasty, and if the 14 states in Jiangbei are lost, the national strength of the Southern Tang Dynasty will be weakened by half.
It's not that Li Congjia doesn't trust Tianya, it's just that no one will follow this method if it is said. Because it was his father, Emperor Li Jing, it was impossible for him to cede the fourteen states of Jiangbei, even if he fought to the death with the Zhou army.
"Do you like to play this set?" Zong Xin looked at Dugu Xingyue very depressed, Dugu Xingyue was also quite embarrassed, because she had just played this trick, and she relied on Zong Xin not to leave, and as a result, Zong Xin was forced to tell the truth.
Zong Xin said: "I said that I won't help, why do you bother? It's useless to rely on me, who has a way in this situation? The method Tianya just said is indeed feasible, and let the Zhou army continue like this, the fourteen states of Jiangbei will definitely be lost, and the combat effectiveness of the soldiers of the Southern Tang Dynasty is too poor, and they have to fight with the Xishu side." It is better to preserve strength, and the only way out is to train the troops well. ”
"No, no one will accept it, not even me, let alone my father. Li Congjia said: "This method doesn't work, let's have another one." ”
"I'm not done yet. Zong Xin said: "Cession of the fourteen states of Jiangbei is only the first step, and then you must attack Wu Yue, while there is still time, as long as you can capture Wu Yue...... There may be a silver lining. Believe me, this is the only way out for Nantang. If you continue to persevere, it will be completely over in the end when you dare not attack Wu Yue. The only thing that the Southern Tang can do now is to occupy a piece of land and confront the Great Zhou across the river, if the Jiangnan region is not completely controlled by you, it will definitely be a dead end. ”
"You see, my master said so, it's not my fault. Tianya said confidently: "Master, have I grown again?"
"Hmm~!'s martial arts are higher again, my mind is smarter, and I married my wife...... I am very pleased to be a teacher. This time, your analysis is exactly the same as mine, but there is one thing you haven't analyzed, why did you attack Wu Yue? Do you know the real reason?"
"Attack Wu Yue...... Actually, I don't think it makes much sense. It's not that the disciple is disrespectful to the master, maybe it's that he doesn't see something inside. Tianya said: "It doesn't matter, the disciple will slowly comprehend." ”
"It's good to know. Zong Xin said: "Li Congjia, after you go back, you will say this, as for whether your father will do it, I don't care." By the way, you must believe me, so far nothing has come out of my mouth that has not been fulfilled, and the only way out for the Southern Tang Dynasty is to cede the land north of the river. Of course, my apprentice said that attacking Wu Yue could be done or not, but I said that Wu Yue must be attacked, otherwise the Southern Tang Dynasty would still destroy the country. As for my message here, it's better not to say it, or you'll be in trouble. ”
"Then ...... Thanks to Master Zongxin for his advice, Xiao Wang retired. ”
Li Congjia turned around and left, although he was a little unhappy in his heart, but Zong Xin finally spoke, and came up with an idea. Li Congjia knew very well in his heart that if Zong Xin was willing to make a move, the 200,000 troops of Da Zhou would not be called anything at all, but it was impossible for Zong Xin to make a move, because he did not have this need.
Zong Xin also said just now that Guo Wei is the person he respects the most, and Da Zhou was founded by Guo Wei. Zong Xin at most helped the Great Zhou to attack the Southern Tang Dynasty, and it was impossible to help the Southern Tang Dynasty attack the Great Zhou, which Li Congjia was very clear about.
But the problem now is Zongxin's idea...... It's so depressing. After a defeat, they cede half of the country? Who would accept such an outcome?
What's more, even if he cedes half of the country, Chai Rong may not let go of the Southern Tang Dynasty, so what's the difference? As for attacking Wu Yue...... Li Congjia didn't know why. I can't even think of the reason for Tianya, let alone him?
After going back, he had to explain like this, because Li Congjia still trusted Zong Xin very much. At least what came out of his mouth had never been unfulfilled until now.
What's more, Li Congjia also knew very well that the Zhou army was like a bamboo, and Chai Rong originally had the intention of annexing the world, so he would never stop there. The Southern Tang army could not win, and as a result, the land north of the river was slowly encroached. There is still a big difference between sending it yourself and being robbed by others, if you send it yourself...... At least some conditions can be discussed, but if they are robbed of it, they are not even qualified to negotiate conditions.
Watching Li Congjia leave slowly, Xiang'er immediately got up and closed the door. Although ordinary people don't know Zongxin either, it is still necessary not to let Zongxin show up as much as possible.
"Finally gone, let's start eating officially. Xiang'er went to prepare a little more wine, I want to have a good drink with Master today, and after looking for more than half a month, I finally found Master's foothold, and I didn't talk well yesterday when I saw the war. Tianya's face was excited, because he saw Master again.
In fact, Tianya only took Xiang'er to find Zongxin's wooden house yesterday, and Tianya knew that the two sides were about to fight, so he had been looking for the master's hiding place. But because there are people watching, it is a little inconvenient to move, and it is quite troublesome to find.
Finally found Zongxin's wooden house yesterday, but at that time Zongxin and his party were no longer in the wooden house, Tianya used the tracking technology he learned from Lei Tianxiao to follow all the way, and finally found Zongxin and his party, they were hiding in a very safe place to watch the battle.
However, at that time, it was already dark, and the two sides had already started fighting, and Zong Xin and his party watched the battle excitedly and did not say much. After the fight, Tianya invited Zong Xin to sit at his house and eat breakfast by the way.
Zongxin's character is ...... He has to eat hot pot early, because he thinks that eating hot pot is the most enjoyable and the most delicious. I watched a big battle last night, and I met a distressed apprentice again, of course I had to drink a little more.
Xiang'er was busy for a while and finally prepared the hot pot, and at this time, Li Congjia also came. Therefore, Tianya and Zongxin have not officially begun to reminisce.
Although there were so many women present, their identities were different. Except for the master who is the master, and Xiang'er's seniority is inferior, and Xiang'er is a girl, so she does everything. Even Dugu Xingyue, who has the lowest status, doesn't need help.
"Master, since Li Hongji is gone, you can tell me why you want to attack Wu Yue. Tianya said: "Actually, I don't think there is any need to attack Wu Yue, as long as the Southern Tang Dynasty develops well, there is still a way to live." ”
"Your kid is really still a little tender, and you don't even know what you are doing to eat? Jiangbei produces salt, but Jiangnan does not produce salt. If the land north of the river is lost, the Southern Tang Dynasty will not have any salt production capacity, although the grain production capacity is still good, but people always have to eat salt. You also know how expensive salt is now, although Nantang doesn't make much money from salt, at least it doesn't benefit us Yandao. Because the salt produced in Jiangbei is basically enough for Nantang to consume by itself, it only needs to be imported a little. But if there is no land in the north of the Yangtze River, just eating salt can make Nantang poor, you also know Zhao Kuangyin's methods, it is strange that he will make Nantang have a good time. ”
"Oh~~ That's what it looks like. Tianya said: "But even if you know, it's useless, Li Jing will definitely not do this." So, if you listen to someone to eat a full meal, Li Jing will definitely be angry with herself. ”
"That's right, Li Jing's character, even if I personally say this method, he won't agree, although he knows very well in his heart that the fourteen states of Jiangbei will be lost sooner or later, but he refuses to let go. In fact, if you take the initiative to offer what you will lose, you can negotiate the conditions, at least it will not make the economy of Nantang worse. Of course, it has nothing to do with us, anyway, I'm just here to join in the fun and have a drink by the way. ”
"Master is Master, and he is really better than me, who is an apprentice. ”
Zong Xin said: "You are already very powerful, the most difficult thing in this world to understand is the human heart, and the most difficult thing to do is to change." Since you can teach Li Hongji well, I admire this very much. It's not easy to teach a straw bale kid so well. ”
"Beat him~ When you don't accept it, you will beat him until he is convinced. Tianya said with a smile: "But the main reason is that Li Hongji is still very motivated in his heart, and after letting them suffer more, they will naturally know what to do." ”
"Well done, with the style of a teacher. ”
"Master Xie complimented. ”
