Chapter 610: Wind and Thunder Come at Night
It's dusk again, and the mist can't be dispersed
The army was stacked on top of each other, a middle tent, standing with his own soldiers, Yu Fan frowned, read the information, and said for a long time: "Qi Liang, explain your plan." β
"Yes!"
Qi Liang saw that Yu Fan looked speechless, and replied: "I am shallow, and I am afraid that I will not be able to enter the eyes of the lord." β
Yu Fan said: "You don't have to be too humble, your talent is not under Mr. Kou before, these days, everyone knows it, who can say badly?"
Qi Liang pondered for a moment before he said, "Yes!"
"At present, in terms of intelligence, under the guidance of the lord, I was able to know that the achievement of a real person is a real change from mortal to heavenly status, Ye Qing got the title of real person, and immediately severed the relationship with the imperial court, openly announced the military management of the county, and its army has also expanded to seven thousand, and the total strength of the alliance has even reached twenty thousand, which has become the climate. β
When Yu Fan heard this, a gloomy light flashed in his bottomless eyes, and he stared at Qi Liang for a long time, but said: "Although what you said is ugly, it is the truth. β
"But it is not without a turnaround, yesterday the news of the victory of the state army came. β
"In Wuzhen County, Pinghe County, Qin Lie led 30,000 state troops to arrive quickly in one day and one night, and after a fierce battle, he defeated most of the Yin soldiers, captured 20,000, and countless people fled. β
"Under the backdrop of Ye Qing's defeat of 400,000, this does not have much luster, but in two days, the application of waterways in it is still quite eye-catching. β
"I don't know how many benefits the governor has ceded to Long Jun. Yu Fan was in the know, got up, walked quickly to the sand table, looked at the position, and said with a sneer.
Ye Qing's strength is a threat to the Yu family, but in this regard, the kings of large and small families are also instinctively jealous, in the face of such a rapid investment of troops, the elite advantage of the state capital is getting bigger and bigger, and it is more difficult to compete openly......
Or is it only Ye Qing who can fight in the ring now?
As soon as he thought of this, Yu Fan felt a thorn in his heart.
"My lord, no matter what you say, for the Dragon Monarch to obtain permission from the Heavenly Court to open the waterway, this is the overall situation of fighting against the demons, and no one can oppose it. β
"The state government obtained the right to use the waterway, and continuously used troops to clear and expel the Yin soldiers, and finally let the chaos in the counties stop a little, and the order of the imperial court in Yingzhou has been restored to a certain extent...... One can't help but look forward to the next move of the state capital. β
And this will make the conflict between the imperial court and Ye Qing officially break out. β
When Yu Fan heard this, he leaned forward, looked at Qi Liang, and asked hoarsely, "How can you see it?"
Qi Liang got up with a smile, went to the sand table, pointed with a wooden stick, gritted his teeth, and smiled gloomily: "I grew up on the grassland, there is no light to darken, I can see more clearly!"
"There is only one wolf king, at this time, if Ye Qing retreats, it can be said that no matter how great his merits, his alliance will collapse. β
"The generals who have killed the generals in the past generations are all great achievements, but once they retreat, they will die and be wiped out. β
Qi Liang said slowly and clearly: "This is the same as the wolf on the grassland, asking for water and sheep, Ye Qing retreats, he can't take care of the wolves, and he can't find a pasture to eat the sheep, how can this be maintained?"
"So there are only two outcomes, either to fall apart and die, or to break with the governor. β
When Yu Fan heard this, he couldn't help but admire: "It's wonderful, it's pertinent!"
This person's eyes flashed, staring at the candlelight, slowly dimming again, for a long time, sighing: "You said that Ye Qing would choose that one, with his temperament, would he be arrested?"
Qi Liang leaned over and said, "Lord, you know this answer in your heart. β
Yu Fan paced silently with his hands behind his back, his long body moved back and forth, for a long time, and sighed: "I really hope that Ye Qing is a loyal and filial son, so that he can be captured, and then he can be cut off, and we will have one less big enemy and one more foundation." β
"After a few years, we can rehabilitate and give this dead man a title...... What a dream!" Speaking of this, he couldn't help laughing at himself, and instructed his own soldiers: "You go and pass on my order, repair the dayβand, get some wine and meat, I want to talk to Mr. Qi all night!"
Finally, Qi Liang rose to the status of "Mr. Qi", which was on a par with Mr. Kou back then.
In this atmosphere, the governor's office sent envoys to the counties to reward and punish the local authorities in the name of the imperial courtβalthough half of the resources were siphoned off by the central government, the state government never gave up the integration of the localities, and the accumulation of interests in this was also tacitly approved by the imperial court.
It is not known how it was elsewhere, but on the side of Nancang County, as soon as the envoy arrived, he was warmly welcomed by the county government.
Yu Chengen personally went out of the city to greet him, smiling and genuinely enthusiastic, and officials who were familiar with this boss could see that this was not the same as the pretentiousness when greeting Ye Qing's triumph.
In the hospitality restaurant in the county town, almost all the officials of the county government were present to wash the dust for the officials.
The envoy is a middle-aged official, surnamed Wang Mingshuang, a highly qualified Tongjin Shi, and his official quality is also from the fourth grade, which is higher than the county guard.
"These are all due meanings, I will name them here, and invite Count Ye to be present in person...... After all, it is a good thing to fight against the outer regions, and it is such a great achievement to defeat 400,000 Yin soldiers...... If you don't reward it, won't it make people laugh at the intolerable amount of this dynasty?"
Wang Shuangzheng said, but it caused waves at the beginning, everyone's faces were different, and many unscrupulous officials secretly regretted that they should not be greedy for a wine banquet and get involved in this right and wrong.
After three rounds of drinking, Wang Shuang put down the glass: "You are free, I'll go and change clothes." β
Yu Chengen also got up to accompany him, speechless all the way, until he reached the top of the building, and both of them naturally stopped.
"This move seems to be a bit redundant. Yu Chengen whispered tentatively, knowing that Ye Qing would never agree, this son had already resolutely stayed outside the court, and he would not listen to the tune during the war, let alone listen to the announcement.
Wang Shuang looked at the logo produced by the Ye Family Workshop on the window paper with great interest, shook his head, and pushed open the window: "Rules are rules, not redundant." β
A gust of wind and rain blew in from the window, splashing the ground, but it was isolated by a transparent magic film, and it did not touch the two people who were talking, and the cold water vapor made people feel refreshed and looked out.
Outside the building, there was a smoke and rain, and the dense rain lines splashed on the cyan tiles of the houses, crackling, and the white water vapor spread all over the heaven and earth, blurring the weather in the world.
In the smoke and rain, dozens of neighborhoods in the city are vertical and horizontal, they are no longer visible in the distance, and the red lanterns of merchants and restaurants can be seen in the near distance, the market is much more depressed than before the war, but compared with the popularity of the war curfew, many pedestrians on the bluestone street have returned from outside the city, and the duckweed with oil-paper umbrellas gathers and scatters, collides and drifts...... Finally disappeared from house to house.
Occasionally, there are also mourning processions out of the city, most of the dead are soldiers and civilians who have been slaughtered by demons several times, and the war has been delayed until this time, even if it rains, it can not be delayed any longer, and the relatives are sent to the tomb with black umbrellas...... Or it's a kind of homecoming.
"The country is picturesque, the generations are like shuttles, you don't know, I am from the same Jinshi, some can feel that this son's heart is not in this mortal world, he wants to become an immortal......"
Wang Shuang sighed and said, his eyes flashed with a hint of coldness: "Once the success is achieved, he still wants to go to heaven with a green vein, why don't he use the entire state capital as a foothold, how can there be such a cheap thing in this world." β
It turned out that it was the earth vein that cast its influence, and they didn't want to see the achievements of the green vein...... Yu Chengen's mind was much more open-minded, and he actively said at this time: "The county will definitely fully cooperate with the envoy!"
"It is to cooperate with the state government and the imperial court. β
Wang Shuang glanced at him, corrected him, and changed it to a cordial tone: "The state government has decided to clearly support your Yu family......
The first half of the sentence made Yu Chengen's mind glow with a hint of heat, and as soon as he smiled, he heard Wang Shuang say again: "Call your son Yu Fan back, no matter where he is now...... The Governor has something for me to convey to him. β
β...... Yes, the dog has been summoned and is returning from the western grassland, but it is a little far, and I am afraid that it will take ten days...... And if Ye Qing comes. β
Wang Shuang said calmly: "Whether to come or not to come, it is his choice, and there is a banquet for him here in my place...... But the so-called gentlemen in those counties and counties must be present for me, and I can't lose the face of the state capital, you must supervise it. β
"The lower officials must work hard. Yu Chengen said in a cold sweat, he was a little unsure about this, but he didn't dare to disobey the envoy's intentions at this time.
The big camp in the middle horde
Qi Liang, who received the latest news, changed his face: "The development of the situation below is somewhat unexpected by the state city, and we wanted to use the call of the imperial court to respond, at least half of the people responded." β
"I don't want the county to respond very little for a while, and there are few family monarchs rushing to the county at all, and in the Ye family alliance system, almost none of them move, and everyone's eyes are on Nanlian Mountain, waiting for the decision of the Governor's Mansion. β
In the face of the envoy's call, Ye Qing didn't even come forward, only a handwritten letter from Qian Zhenren, showing his gratitude, Qing Jin Zhenren is cultivating in retreat, stabilizing the Qingmai Spirit Pool, and mundane things cannot be interrupted. β
"It's really bold to openly regard the call of the court as a mundane thing!" Speaking of this, Qi Liang raised his head, his wolf-like eyes flashed faintly, and his hoarse voice made people shudder: "Lord, Ye Qing is full of wings, and his strength and influence have exceeded our expectations. β
"What will Wang Shuang do next, it is impossible for him not to know what this means. Yu Fan hurriedly paced a few steps and asked.
Qi Liang didn't speak, turned his eyes outside, and saw that the sky was dark, the sky was covered with thick clouds, and the wind blew the tents to squirr, and after a long time, he sighed and said: "Lord, you can't hesitate, Nancang County is about to change the sky!"
Seeing that Yu Fan's body was shocked, he leaned over and said: "Lord, your family business is fundamental, don't look at how many people support you now, but their home is in the county." β
"Once the county changes, will your family be able to keep it?"
"If you can't keep it, can your army keep it?"
"If the army can't be saved, where is your net worth and life?"
"Lord, go back to preside over the overall situation quickly, if you can recover, you will naturally have to recover, if you can't recover, you must also lead the whole clan to move quickly - as long as someone has sheep, are you afraid that there will be no pasture?"
Before the words fell, there was a "boom", and a muffled thunder rolled through the night.
