Turbulent Times Chapter 1417: Conspiracy for four counties
However, the more this happened, the more Wei Zheng lost confidence in whether he could be reused by Wang Junlin.
And if he doesn't get the attention of King Qin An, or even worse than his original official position in Wuyang County, although Wei Zheng will not leave, he will accept it, but he will always feel unhappy and lost in his heart.
Therefore, before asking to see Wang Junlin, Wei Zheng decided to learn more about the situation in Fanyang County, and prepare his self-recommendation statement during the "interview".

………
In the yamen of the Far Eastern Army's marching general manager's office, the space of the conference hall is not very large. On the left hand side is a large row of people-high partial grain balance beams. The shelves are not weapons, but books.
Wang Junlin was not wearing an official uniform at this time, but changed into a comfortable white casual shirt with a jade belt around his waist, which looked casual.
At this time, he was leaning on the low couch, reached out to put the tea bowl on the table, and waved his hand casually, first came the two female officials, Shen Guoer and Yang Kongchan, and then the three civil servants Du Ruhui, Liu Ziming, and Liu Jicheng , as well as Yuchi Jingde, Luo Shixin, Lu Han, Guan Xiaotong, Wei Daoer and other land battalion commanders, as well as Luo Chunlai, Huang Shaoqiu, Gan Ziqi, Liu Yidong, Zheng Dabiao and the five navy commanders all bowed and saluted before sitting down.
Wang Junlin has always been easy-going in informal occasions, and he doesn't like everyone standing when he convenes the generals under his command. You can only be the same as everyone else—he can't sit like other people, let him stand!
Du Ruhui, Liu Ziming, and Shen Guo'er must have this kind of important meeting in a small area, while the others follow Wang Junlin's intentions, whoever Wang Junlin sends to summon will attend.
However, it is the first time in the past few years that all the commanders of the battalion, especially the commanders of the navy who are far away overseas, have been called to a meeting like this today.
It can be said that in addition to Fang Qiao and Fang Xuanling who presided over the overall situation in An Nanguo on the Goguryeo Peninsula, Zhang Jike and Shen Guang Xu Jingzong who were lurking in the Luoyang court, Wu San who just pretended to be a horse thief and occupied Mayi County, and the victim Except for Li Xuanba who was injured and recuperating at home, all the generals under Wang Junlin's command had already arrived.
"Wei Zheng is here now
Where? "Wang Junlin glanced over the crowd, and found that compared with military generals, there were still too few civil servants, so he first looked at Shen Guoer and said.
Shen Guoer immediately said: "My lord, Wei Zheng entered the county town in an hour, and at this time he was drinking tea in the Fanyang teahouse in the west of the city."
Wang Junlin nodded, glanced across the crowd, and glanced at Shen Guoer, who immediately walked to the side of the wall. There was a map hanging on the wall. With a pull of a string, the whole picture rolled up in a flash, revealing a huge map underneath.
"Everyone, please look at this map of the entire Great Sui River and Mountains. We only occupy three counties, and Mayi County is only four counties. Except for Luoyang and the nearby counties, which can be completely controlled by the imperial court, The vast lands of all counties in the world are already under the rule of various forces. There are rebels like Wagangzhai, and there are local powerful families who are against the imperial court. Right now, the south of the Yangtze River, the Central Plains, and the northwest are beyond our reach. However, the other four counties in Hebei must be brought down as soon as possible and included in the territory of our Far East Army."
"Nowadays, the forces in these four counties are chaotic, and they are all powerful and plentiful bandits and horse thieves. To be brought under our control, the Central Plains, Jiangnan, Northwest, and Southwest will also be ours! We promote industry and commerce, strengthen agriculture, emphasize culture and education, train soldiers and horses, let the people recuperate, accumulate strength, and the purpose is to compete in the world. These controlled places If the tyrants and rebels are willing to submit to our Far East Army, let them live a peaceful and prosperous life from then on. If they are not willing...but they have to fight each other."
Looking at the map, looking at the vast world, the hearts of the people are already boiling with enthusiasm. Only by conquering these places, they can establish a country and change the dynasty, and they are the heroes who founded the country.
Du Ruhui was the first to regain his composure, and said, "My lord, if we launch troops against the other four counties in Hebei at this time, although the court may not have extra troops to intervene, the family with the Lonely family as the main family will inevitably give the local tyrants and peace More aid and support from the rebels will greatly increase the difficulty for our army to win, and if it drags on for a long time, the emperor might have the guts to attack us
Soldiers. "
Wang Junlin nodded slightly, expressing his affirmation of Du Ruhui's words, and said: "What Ruhui said is very true, so I discussed this matter with you and found a suitable time to send troops."
Liu Ziming hesitated for a moment, and said: "My lord, I think it's too late to send troops to attack the four counties at this time, at least the financial preparations are not sufficient. And the battle in Yanmen County has not been over for half a year."
Wang Junlin shook his head and said: "What Ziming said is correct. With the current military strength of our Far East Army and the strength of the counties and counties under our control, it is not the best time to send troops to attack the four counties, but if we consider the overall situation of the world , we cannot wait any longer."
After a pause, Wang Junlin said again: "According to the intelligence obtained by the Military Intelligence Office from various forces in the world, Li Mi of Wagangzhai will make a big move recently. At that time, with the support of the Dugu family and other powerful families, they secretly controlled the entire three counties of Bingzhou. The Xiao family, a descendant of the Liang Dynasty in the south of the Yangtze River, had secretly gathered a huge force. It is necessary to seize the time, seize all the four counties of Hebei, and control the entire land of Hebei before the separatism of the world is established."
Liu Jicheng said: "What the prince said is very true. The current situation is really not waiting for us. However, the imperial court and powerful families are eyeing us. The humble officials think that the time to attack the four counties should not be too long, otherwise our Far East Army may be in danger." /
Liu Ziming wanted to say something, but he hesitated in the end. He is currently calculating the food, grass, money, etc. if he attacks the four counties at the same time. The result has not yet been calculated. Dissuasion is not convincing. After the results come out, use the numbers to convince the prince and everyone.
Wang Junlin did not immediately respond to Liu Jicheng's words, but looked at Shen Guoer and said, "Where are your master and the 30,000 Golden Wolf Guards now?"
Shen Guoer immediately said: "Reporting to the lord, the 30,000 Golden Wolf Guards have arrived at the border of Youzhou, and they can come to Fanyang County at any time."
Wang Junlin nodded, glanced at everyone, and said: "You can rest assured, since I have decided to send troops to attack the four counties at the same time, I am confident that I will take the four counties in a short time, and it may not take long. , there will be an excellent opportunity to send troops."
