Chapter 124: The Visitor
Beast Master Wang Lei knew that he had exposed his secrets, so he simply did not hide his background, and smiled bluntly: "The market rangers often say that the green forest is a good man, but they have forgotten all about the Red Eyebrow Rebels. In the final analysis, it was the Green Forest Army that seized the opportunity to make meritorious contributions from the dragon and successfully washed their feet ashore, as if they had become the heroes of the new dynasty. The Red Eyebrow Army bet on the wrong treasure and was killed by the imperial court. ”
Ye Zhiqiu was noncommittal to his remarks: "The troubled times are coming, and you are waiting for the descendants of the red eyebrows, do you want to bet again, invest in a certain prince, assist him to dominate the world, be a hero of the dragon, and win a posthumous title for the ancestors?"
Wang Lei nodded lightly: "After the expansion of the Xiliang Army, the mud and sand have fallen, and its words and deeds are simply unscrupulous, what is the difference between it and the bandits? At first glance, it is not a candidate prince to win the world! Most of the heroes in the Kanto region are dry bones in the grave, and they can still call for wind and rain in peacetime when the world is peaceful, and once the troubled times come, the first unlucky ones are these guys with low eyes! The only ones that can make us take a fancy are Wucheng Hou Sun Jian, Xiao Cavalry Captain Cao Cao, and Zhongshan Taishou Liu Bei, who you are serving now!"
When Ye Zhiqiu heard this, he couldn't help but sigh secretly, and thought to himself: "The three princes of Sun, Cao and Liu, according to the history I know, later became the climate, and in the battle with the princes, they fought a bloody way and divided the world into three parts!
Ye Zhiqiu restrained his thoughts, and said with a slightly straight face: "Sun Jian's foundation is in Jiangdong, not to mention Liu Biao in Jingzhou and Tao Qian in Xuzhou, just Shanyue is chaotic enough to give people a headache. After he calms down the rear, and then waves the army to the north, I don't know if the Year of the Monkey can be realized? Xuande Duke Liu Bei is benevolent and righteous, but his strength is weak, there is no family help behind him, most of the soldiers under his command are from civilian backgrounds, and several civil servants are still poor scholars, and if they want to do something big, they always feel that they are short of manpower. Cao Mengde was born in a family of eunuchs, and he had a strong old relationship with the scholars, raised the banner of rebellion and shouted highly, and the responders gathered, and the army under his command was strong and strong, but he was a prince who had some possibility of success. Why don't you serve Cao Cao!"
Beast Master Wang Lei didn't expect that the other party would not answer his words, and in turn encouraged himself to defect to the princes of the strong domain, and couldn't help but laugh in surprise: "According to common sense, you should think about Xuande Gong and vigorously recruit us, but at this time, you asked me to wait to vote for Cao Mengde, what do you think?"
Ye Zhiqiu grinned: "Liu Bei is a benevolent lord, he acts above board, and he can't say anything to others." You bare-eyebrow descendants, lurking for many years, have come up with the so-called Loose Cultivation Alliance, and sneakily do all kinds of private things, which are incompatible with us in terms of emotion and reason. Besides, the world is in turmoil, and the dragon qi law ban cannot be restored, so you can be like a fish in water, if the world is unified, and bet on the wrong chips, I am afraid that it will be another purge! Do you still have a chance to recover? In my opinion, not necessarily!"
The two sides made it clear that the carriage and horses were clear, and the beast master Wang Lei no longer concealed it, and couldn't help but sigh: "It is precisely because the world is about to be in chaos, the dragons and snakes are rising, and the princes are competing for the Central Plains, we don't know the time, so we can only lay out the world and widely sow seeds, in order to make a decision in the future when the situation is clear!"
Ye Zhiqiu laughed loudly: "With me here, don't even think about handing over your claws." Who will Xuande Gong's way be to me? The next time we meet, I will not let you go!"
Beast Master Wang Lei couldn't help but shake his head: "Fellow Daoist, you are really a cruel and ruthless person! Do you still hold a grudge against the original siege and killing? ”
Ye Zhiqiu said with a smile: "Your vision is so low? I only saw myself being beaten, and I knew that it hurt but I didn't have any reflection! I didn't see that the Dao soldiers under my command were at least the strength of ten generals, and the best of them was the level of a hundred generals." The Five Poison Dao Vein Inheritors you have cultivated are also embroidered pillows with eyes above the top, which seem to be gold and jade, but in fact they are essentially just a straw bale!"
Wang Lei still wanted to argue again, but he didn't expect the opponent to take out a gossip mirror, which could break his spell of changing with the fur of the monster, so he didn't dare to say more at the moment, so he hurriedly took a few steps back, put on a mouse skin and rolled on the spot, only to see a cloud of oil gray light flashing, and he turned into a big rat on the ground, digging hard into the ground, and fled without looking back.
Ye Zhiqiu watched this "old acquaintance" come and go, and couldn't help but squint and ponder: "The Scattered Cultivation Alliance is the descendant of the Red Eyebrow Army, and the historical legacy of Guangwu Zhongxing. From this point of view, the violent turmoil caused by the return of troubled times, all the bulls, ghosts, snakes and gods have escaped, and there will be more things in the future. ”
Thinking of meeting with people in private and talking about the general trend of the world, Ye Zhiqiu felt that he should remind Liu Bei, lest he be bewitched by the unkind monks.
Who knows, he just turned around, and was about to go to find Xuande Gong, who was chatting with the village elders, Liu Bei, who looked like a scholar with a white face, stood not far behind him with a light smile, holding a leafy camphor tree.
At such a close distance, Liu Bei's breath was unexpectedly unaware, this discovery made Ye Zhiqiu amazed, but what he said just now was sincere, even if he was a little arrogant, there was nothing to blame, of course, he looked calm, bowed to Xuande Gong, and walked over.
In fact, Liu Bei has just arrived, but he is deaf and clear-sighted, and he has heard a lot of interesting conversations, and his heart is quite uneasy. When he saw the Taoist general of Xinzhong and found that he was close to the left, the surprise in his eyes flashed, and the expression on his face was even more calm, and he immediately understood.
At this moment, the latest news came from the intelligence channel mastered by Liu Bei, saying that the general Guan Yu led the army to break through Gong County, seized a large amount of grain and grass military funds, and in the arsenal of this county, a large number of strong bows and crossbows were raised, and there were countless crossbow arrows!
With Liu Bei's calmness, he couldn't help laughing after knowing this, Ye Zhiqiu took the opportunity to change the topic: "Our army does not carry much grain and grass, and it is a lone army that goes deep, and it is inevitable to seize military funds to replenish consumption, and it is really the best policy to fight to feed the war in the territory of the Xiliang rebels!"
Liu Bei heard these words and nodded lightly: "The leader of the coalition alliance can't see the victory of the princes and establish meritorious deeds, and privately withhold grain, grass and ordnance, our army is really hungry and ruthless." Now that I have captured a lot, I will first take some of them and arm them, I would rather spend many times the military funds than use the lives of my soldiers to fill the pit of the Xiliang rebels!"
Ye Zhiqiu couldn't help but sigh: "Xuande Gong is really a rare benevolent lord in the world! However, sometimes you have to be ruthless, after all, now is the time for a big dispute. If the prince can't do it, this way is willing to drive the king!"
Liu Bei looked at the approaching Taoist generals, and suddenly remembered that the Taoist soldiers under Ye Zhiqiu's command were not much better than his own soldiers, which was really surprising. In the past, he had heard that there was this ambush army hiding in the Gyeonggi territory, that is, a year ago, and after careful calculation, it was only a few months before and after, and such a brave soldier was trained, which is really not to be underestimated.
"Brother Ye, what do you think of the current situation?
Ye Zhiqiu knew what Liu Bei was asking, and shook his head without hesitation: "If Dong Liangzhou is strong for a long time, and the Xiliang Army can be supported by Haoqiang, there may be a possibility that the whale will swallow the world." It's a pity that Dong Thief was fascinated by power, and it was just enough to kill the ministers of the DPRK and the Central People's Republic of China, scraping the ground three feet in the capital Luoyang, causing public resentment to boil, and now there is a move to move the capital, shaking the country's capital, I am afraid that the death of the clan is not far away, not to mention any hegemony!"
After this trouble, there is not much left of the majesty of the Han family, and the main trunk is rotten and rotten, so it is better to transplant side branches and replace it. A few years ago, the Han family's relatives and ministers were divided into prefectures and counties, which was the policy of the Han family, hoping that their people would take root in the local area to accumulate strength and repeat the old story of Guangwu Zhongxing. If the public has a heart, he should give up Luoyang, the land of a hundred battles, return to Zhuo County, Jizhou to cultivate forces, make good scholars, envelop the strong, wait for the opportunity to move, and once there is a change, Jizhou Mu Hanfu will replace him. ”
Liu Bei couldn't help but show a look of surprise, glanced at Ye Zhiqiu carefully, and found that the Dao general under his command was unmoved, so he opened his mouth to explain: "Han Fu Han Wenjie, the protégé of the Yuan clan in Runan. The Yuan clan has latent forces in Hebei, He, Qing, and Yan states, either open or dark, if there is a change in the place, Yuan Highway wants the power of the state pastor, and Han Fu has little resistance...... Got it!"
Immediately, Liu Bei suddenly realized, and at the same time, he was also dissatisfied with Ye Zhiqiu's move to save Pan Feng and secretly catch the Jizhou army, but now he is inexplicably emotional.
"Brother Ye, it's really far-sighted!"
Ye Zhiqiu also shrugged his shoulders: "In the four northern states, the Jizhou army is strong and strong, and it is also the strongest army in the world. When the Kwantung princes formed an alliance, they showed their faces, and when they attacked the Tiger Pass, they also leaked their faces, and it was too eye-catching, and it was difficult to guarantee that no one would covet them. Now that the public understands this verse, he should prepare early!"
Liu Bei looked at Ye Zhiqiu carefully, the Taoist general who was wholeheartedly thinking about him, couldn't help but smile and said: "I have the help of Brother Ye, just like Gaozu has a son!"
