Zhang Quanyue heard that Li Chongjin was going to rebel, he knew this person, frowned and asked: "Even if the Zhao family is the Zhou dynasty, Li Chongjin is also a general, why do you want to rebel?" Xiao Han smiled: "Everyone's choice is different, Li Chongjin was originally Chai Rong's nephew, so he naturally disagreed with the Zhao family's usurpation of the Chai family, but unfortunately with a small Jing Navy envoy, how could he beat the Zhao army like a wolf and a tiger." Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 info" Zhang Quanyue nodded and said, "In your opinion, when will he rebel?" Xiao Han blurted out: "Next September." This historical fact is so familiar to him that he doesn't even have to think about it.

Zhang Quan stared at him suspiciously, he put his hands on the table, knocked lightly on the table uneasily, and held an empty cup in the other hand and said, "In your opinion, what should we do now? What will be the general trend of the world in the future?"

This question is too big to be clear in one or two sentences, Xiao Han smiled and picked up a cup of tea on the table and drank it all, put down the teacup and said: "Lord Zhang, the sages have clouds: not in their position, not in their politics." With the official position of an adult, may it change the situation of my Jiangnan Dynasty?" Zhang Quanyue shook his head, his face turning from gray to embarrassed.

Xiao Han continued: "Since this is the case, why don't you go with the flow and follow the trend." In the next calculation, but more than ten years, the world will be reunified, those who know the times are handsome, and my Jiangnan country is just a remnant. Speculating on Zhao's thoughts, he will adopt the policy of first north and then south, but the northern Han country has the Great Liao as the aid, and it is safe for a while, and the Western Shu has mountains and rivers and natural dangers, and the Eastern Wu Yue has always been only the Zhao family, and the southern Han is far away from the Central Plains, so the first to suffer must be the country bordering the Great Song Dynasty. ”

The more he said, the more frightening it became, Zhang Quanyue's face turned gray again, he was the history of Chizhou Thorn, and Chizhou is opposite Shuzhou, there is a Yangtze River in between, if the Zhao army comes to attack, it will cross the Anhui Pass to attack Guichi County, Chizhou is not safe, the first to bear the brunt, once Chizhou falls, the door of Xuanzhou in the east is wide open, and the Zhao army will be driven in, the east and west are attacked, and Jinling is difficult to protect. Even if they don't attack Chizhou, the Zhao army can attack Jinling if they march from any side, and the Yangtze River is wide, as long as the Zhao army's naval division is completed, it is only a matter of time before Jiangnan falls.

Xiao Han was very satisfied with his performance, couldn't help coughing, and continued: "But don't be afraid in the short term, I calculate that Zhao Kuangyin will definitely focus on Dingnei, he will first put down Li Yun's rebellion, and then he will quell Li Chongjin's rebellion, and then reward him for meritorious deeds, and then solve the problem of martial artists taking power, and recuperate for two or three years, he will find an excuse to attack Nanping and Langzhou, and those two small countries attached to the Central Plains will be the first to perish." ”

Nanping is a country divided in the area of Jiangling, the capital is located in Jiangling, founded by Gao Jixing, because he was once made an envoy of Jingnan Festival, so it is also called Jingnan. After the death of Gao Jixing, the Later Tang Dynasty posthumously crowned the king of Chu, because of the difference between the Chu State built by Ma Yin, so it was also called "Northern Chu". It has jurisdiction over 17 counties in three states and 140,000 households. At this time, the lord of the country was Gao Baoqing, and the Central Plains was orthodox.

Langzhou was originally the fiefdom of Chu, after the first year of Zhou Guangshun, the then Chu king Ma Xicao was absurd and unreasonable, ordered Zhou Xingfeng, Wang Kui and others to lead soldiers to repair the Chu palace that was burned by fire, work hard, and there was no reward, Wang Kui, Zhou Xingfeng led the troops to flee back to Langzhou, and elected Ma Guanghui as the envoy of Wuping Festival, and then because Ma Guanghui was ignorant and cowardly, Liu Yan was re-recommended as the right to stay in Wuping. Guangshun three years, after Zhou Shenglangzhou for the Wuping army, with Liu Yan as the envoy, when the contradiction between Wang Kui and Liu Yan intensified, Zhou Xingfeng for Wang Kui to give advice, attacked and killed Liu Yan.

In the third year of Guangshun, Zhou Xingfeng joined forces with Wang Kui to capture and kill Liu Yan, and then Zhou Taizu Guo Wei appointed Wang Kui as the envoy of Wuping Festival, and Zhou Xingfeng was appointed by Kui as the governor of Zhitan Prefecture. In the third year of Xiande, Uncle Pan killed Wang Kui, and he couldn't convince the public, so he sent people to Tanzhou to welcome Zhou Xingfeng into Wuling. Soon, Zhou Xingfeng planned to kill Uncle Pan's heir. At this point, Zhou Xingfeng controlled the whole of Hunan, established political power, and Langzhou became the political center of Hunan.

These two small countries are both narrow and inhabited, and it is natural for them to be destroyed by the Zhao clan. Zhang Quanyue suddenly asked: "They have always served the Central Plains as orthodoxy, will the Zhao clan still attack them?" Xiao Han smiled: "Of course, the division must be famous, it is difficult to guarantee that these regimes will not change, and then you can see the grand event of the Zhao army marching south." ”

He said it lightly, Zhang Quanyue heard that there was nothing to do for a while, he breathed a sigh of relief, and then thought that after only two or three more years, the country would sooner or later usher in the southward Zhao army, and his face was still as white as paper.

At this time, it was past three watches, and several handymen brought all kinds of snacks and meals. Xiao Han chatted with him for a long time, his mouth was dry, and he said to Zhang Quanyue: "Lord Zhang, forgive me for being rude, can we take it easy and talk while eating." ”

Zhang Quanyue hurriedly said: "Brother Xiao, please." Xiao Han casually took a chopstick of beef and put it in his mouth, and praised: "It's so fragrant." Zhang Quanyue didn't want to eat, and after seeing him finish eating beef, he couldn't help but say, "Please Brother Xiao to continue." Xiao Han took another piece of braised crispy goose, ate it in a big bite, took out a silk handkerchief and wiped his mouth, and said, "My lord is so polite, I am ashamed to accept it." Speaking of the current situation, I judge as follows. ”

Zhang Quanyue's spirit was immediately highly concentrated, and his two eyes stared at him without blinking. The corners of Xiao Han's mouth turned up slightly, and he said with a smile: "The Zhao family has no intention of attacking my Jiangnan for a while, he wants to calm Li Chongjin first, then calm the domestic situation, and then attack the Northern Han Dynasty, turn around and destroy Nanping and Langzhou after touching the nail, and then turn to the west, destroy Western Shu, and then attack the Southern Han with the help of Wu Yue. ”

Zhang Quanyue let out a sigh of relief, and then said worriedly: "If Nanping and Langzhou are destroyed, and Xishu and Southern Han are also destroyed, then the Zhao clan will form an encirclement of our Jiangnan, and it is only a matter of time before it perishes." ”

Zhang Quan didn't wait for Xiao Han to answer, and then asked: "We will start training now, and we can train tens of thousands of elite soldiers in ten years, and then we can resist the Zhao clan's attack." Xiao Han shook his head and said: "Elite soldiers are not trained, but fought in battle." With the current situation, how can you ensure that you can train elite soldiers? Since the Battle of Huainan, the Tang soldiers are now afraid of the enemy like tigers, and the lord of the country is too busy to have fun and escape, where do you go to train the army?"

Zhang Quanyue said dejectedly: "Brother Xiao is reasonable, according to you, we can only sit and wait to die?" Xiao Han sneered and said: "Naturally not, if Lord Zhang dares to go out, although I Xiao Han is not talented, I can give you a great fortune, just see if you dare to do it?"

Zhang Quanyue looked at him left and right for a long time, Xiao Han shocked him too much tonight, he thought that this kid was just an ordinary Jianghu person, but he didn't expect to talk about the current situation now. And what he just said hit his heart, Zhang Quanyue participated in the Battle of Huainan, although in the end the Southern Tang Dynasty was defeated and was forced to cede the fourteen states of Jiangbei to the Great Zhou, he was very dissatisfied in his heart. In that war, the Southern Tang Dynasty made a lot of tricks, one general was incompetent, killing the three armies, the Tang Army's combat power was considered strong among the countries, but it was defeated in one blow in the battle with the Great Zhou, which was completely the responsibility of the lord Li Jing and the main generals below.

Now hearing that Xiao Han is going to give him a fortune, Zhang Quanyue was completely fooled by him, and just about to agree, he suddenly thought of something, looked at the bright lights and candles on the table, and asked suddenly: "Do you know how to tell hexagrams?" Xiao Han was drinking tea, and almost spit it out when he heard the words, and said with a smile: "You think I look like a fortune teller?" Then swallowed the tea, and said: "The general trend of the world, divide and merge, merge and divide, just said that these are just some speculations about the current situation, if Lord Zhang doesn't believe it, you can naturally wait and see." Then he suddenly asked, "What day is today?"

Zhang Quan made an appointment to see his serious appearance, but it was a little difficult to judge, and said: "Today is November 23, what is Brother Xiao asking for this?" Xiao Han thought for a while, frowned and said: "As I expected, on the first day of the first lunar month next year, Zhao Kuangyin will lead troops to the expedition under the pretext of the Northern Han Dynasty to invade the border, and launch a mutiny at Chenqiaoyi in the east of Tokyo, replacing Zhou as Song." ”

Zhang Quanyue shook his head and smiled: "Brother Xiao, you are still young, don't dare to say this." Xiao Han Zhengse said: "Does Lord Zhang dare to gamble with you?" Zhang Quanyue smiled and said: "Even if the Zhao family has the ambition to represent Zhou, it will not be as you said about the New Year's mutiny, and Chen Qiaoyi, have you been to Tokyo?"

Xiao Han saw that he didn't believe it, and sighed: "Although the martial arts are not very good, the prediction is very accurate, if Lord Zhang doesn't believe it, we will make a bet, if the adult wins, I Xiao Han is willing to be driven by the adult in this life." Zhang Quanyue's eyes lit up: "Is this true?" Xiao Han nodded solemnly, and continued: "What if the adults lose?" Zhang Quanyue hesitated for a while and said: "If you win, even if you ask for it, as long as this assassin can do it, you will never refuse." ”

Xiao Han clapped his hands lightly and said, "A word is a certainty." I will promise my lord to help you find the key, and I will talk about it after the Zhao family ascends the throne on the fifth day of the first month. Zhang Quanyue heard him tell the date of Zhao Kuangyin's accession to the throne, and even more determined that he was talking nonsense here, so he immediately nodded and said: "One word is a certainty." ”

At this time, when it was already over, Zhang Quanyue stood up and said: "The night is heavy, Brother Xiao rest early, and I will give you the map tomorrow." As the saying goes: three days of Shibei, impressive. Brother Xiao and I met for the first time, so I was impressed by the official, and I said that I would not have to ask Brother Xiao for more advice in the future. Xiao Han arched his hand and said: "Lord Zhang is serious, as long as you know it, you must say everything." The two looked at each other and laughed, and suddenly felt sorry for each other. The two of them said goodbye, and their own subordinates led Xiao Han back to the guest room to rest.
