Aspirations for Nation and Beauty: Section 24 Joining forces

Lei Juetian's intuition did not deceive him. At this moment, bursts of joyful laughter came from a big boat in the river between Wenning and Baling. An ordinary dual-purpose mixed passenger and cargo ship is very cleverly disguised. From the outside, it looks no different from other ships that are constantly flowing in the river, but the inside is quite different. Several strong men are hiding in the dark. Watching the boats coming and going vigilantly, with sharp eyes, one can tell at a glance that they are not waiting for idlers. The middle cabin door is half closed, and although the window lattice is open, it is covered by the dark window screen, and nothing inside can be seen. The cabin is very spacious, and the exquisite and delicate decoration style can be seen from the hands of Jiangnan craftsmen at a glance. The obvious Jiangnan water town style embellishes the cabin very warmly.

"Lord Su, it seems that your highness is really going to make a big move in Sanjiang. Even the army of the Lin family is adjusting to your highness's army. It seems that the two families are going to join forces. Listen. It is said that the relationship between the third lady of the Lin family and your Royal Highness is somewhat ambiguous, I wonder if this is true?" The young man sitting at the head seat was dressed in a lotus-colored loose robe embroidered with cloud and thunder patterns, and held up the Chazhan laughed loudly, and asked casually while browsing the urgent news of the arrow shot from the river bank.

"Hehe, Your Highness King Xiang, as subordinates, we dare not ask about the affairs of my Highness. Why don't His Highness come to Hanzhong or Qingyang to ask him personally when he is free? This kind of thing may only be known to the person concerned. We But I don't know anything." The elegant and generous Su Qin sat beside him in a plain robe, with a crown and a belt, with a faint smile and a personable demeanor.

"Well, the Maqihan people are a little nervous. Is it true that all of your First Army have arrived in Sanjiang?" Situ Biao raised his eyebrows while reading the urgent report. He pretended to cooperate, but he didn't expect to really push the main force to the front stage. Then he changed his mind, Situ Biao suddenly realized: "Good Su Qin, it turns out that Li Wufeng has his own ideas. Come to express your willingness to support me in recovering Baling, so you are playing with the ideas of the Maqihan people? Well, is it Loushan Pass?"

Seeing the other party smiling and silent, Situ Biao thought about it carefully, and then overturned his own thoughts, "Impossible, Loushan Pass is now the key defense target of the Machihans, and there are at least 50,000 people stationed here. It's easy to defend but hard to attack, your Highness won't be so rash, where would it be? Huayang? Yushan? If you didn't take Loushan Pass, you wouldn't be able to attack these two places?"

"His Royal Highness King Xiang, Su Qin doesn't know anything about the military situation. Please don't ask Su Qin any more."

"Hmph, don't you know?" Su Qin ignored Su Qin, and took out the map from the desk to examine it carefully. Rhonesia, it must be here, Su Qin, Su Qin, your Highness really has a big appetite, Lei Juetian and Bi Xili just swallowed Northern Rhonesia from Lin Guoxiong, and you are thinking about it again, it is really a good idea Ah, let my army contain the Machihan people here, and you are easy to do, and you have a good plan."

"Your Highness, it's hard to say who is holding back who. We haven't had time to make a move in the south. Your Royal Highness, King Xiang, has already pushed your army under the nose of Baling. We just hope that His Highness will cooperate with you after taking down Baling. It is a good thing for both parties to hold back the Machi Khan people so that we can relax in the south. Sooner or later, Baling will be in the hands of His Highness, and we are willing to do our best for His Highness. Could it be that His Highness Would you still refuse? If you're not sure, I don't think His Highness will be so happy just by saying it, right?" Su Qin smiled noncommittally, and he didn't say whether or where he would take action, but was vague to explain.

"Hmph, Your Royal Highness has a big heart." Situ Biao glanced at Su Qin with a half-smile, obviously proud of himself for having guessed the other party's intentions, but this did not affect his actions. He didn't care about supporting him, but Li Wufeng's big move in the south could indeed hold back the hands and feet of the Maqihan people and make them difficult to care about. After he regained Baling, he would have a buffer period to consolidate Baling's defense.

"Your Highness, my Royal Highness's outward development is beneficial to everyone, don't you think? Your Highness has no other intentions, but the threat of the Machihans is getting bigger and bigger, and sooner or later they will become everyone's confidantes. I think His Highness will be happy to see this." Su Qin didn't point it out, and continued with a chuckle, "The Maqihan people have always had quite ambitions for the Five Lakes area, and they have repeatedly invaded the Five Lakes area over the years. , Wen Ning and Baling fell successively, His Highness is now entrusted with the Five Lakes, so it is natural to be responsible for guarding the land, and it is also a good thing to weaken the power of the Machi Khan people.”

"Hehe, Su Qin, I am very clear about what your highness is thinking, but as long as he doesn't enter the Five Lakes, I, Situ Biao, don't care about it. Infringe on the king's interests, other things are easy to talk about." Situ Biao was quite arrogant in his words, and the power arranged by his uncle gradually began to surface. After testing, although it is still far behind the Sixth Army, it can be proudly said that it is much stronger than the Tenth Army of the Seventh and the Eighth and Ninth Army of the Ninth. No matter how unruly this guy Chang Gui is, the Five Lakes region has to be brought into his own hands slowly. The only disaster is the two northern prefectures. When will the third brother hand over Huanggang? , he will make a correct choice sooner or later.

"His Royal Highness Xiang, you don't know what my Royal Highness is thinking. As long as it belongs to the royal family, we will never touch it in Xijiang. His Royal Highness Jin suddenly sent troops to loot Jincheng and looted hundreds of thousands of tons of food reserves in Xijiang. My Highness didn't even say a word, and it provoked accusations from the people in Kansai, which is enough to show the sincerity of my Highness." Su Qin explained calmly.

Situ Biao is naturally aware of this matter, Li Wufeng has suffered such a big dumb loss and has no reaction. Apart from the fact that it is not suitable to enter Huanggang in the military, the main reason is probably the third brother's identity? After all, the third brother is a member of the Situ family just like himself, and the whole world belongs to the Situ family. He Li Wufeng is just a vassal with a foreign surname, and the northwest is barren. Provoking a war against the Situ family will definitely meet with strong resistance from outside the territory.

"Hey, the third brother is indeed doing a bit dishonestly about this matter. If you really want to be short of food, once you open your mouth, will your Highness refuse to save you? Your Highness is very generous with His Majesty. It’s five million dans of grain, and it’s still cheap. His Majesty is probably so happy that he can’t even sleep. I heard that the Heathrow people are also buying grain from your Highness. Your Highness dares to sell it to such an old enemy? Then when? How about I buy some surplus food from your highness?" Situ Biao glanced at Su Qin intentionally or unintentionally.

"Hehe, Your Highness, this food issue has always been in the hands of my Highness. Others, including Mr. Xiao, have no right to make decisions. If Your Highness wants to buy grain, you might as well discuss it directly with my Highness." Su Qin said the topic in one sentence Push away, these members of the Situ family really think that the world is still under the control of their Situ family, and they talk one by one, saying that if they want food, they need food, and dare to think that His Highness is their slave retainer, Su Qin I can't express my disgust in my heart, but the expression on the surface is very respectful, "However, His Royal Highness Jin's methods are a bit too much. Although my Royal Highness didn't say anything, he was still quite angry in his heart. This kind of behavior is like a robber, which is really insulting to the royal family. Reputation ~IndoMTL.com~ If His Highness intends to take back the Northern Territory, I think my Highness will be happy to see it.”

"Oh? Your Royal Highness really said that?" Situ Biao was overjoyed, and then restrained his emotions, pretending to be indifferent and said indifferently: "The third brother has no place to stay. Even a brother can't bear to force him."

"Since living in someone else's territory, you should be honest and responsible. Su Qin can't imagine how His Royal Highness King Jin will support him after raising hundreds of thousands of troops? Isn't Jinzhong already returned to the empire? Su Qin is not very interested in the Kaman people, and it will be a matter of time before they are discarded. His Royal Highness King Jin can take office in his own territory. As for Hejian Tianshui, as long as His Royal Highness Jin can persuade His Royal Highness, he can return it to His Royal Highness Jin. It's not impossible." Su Qinxin said.

Situ Biao scoffed at Su Qin's statement that Li Wufeng was willing to exchange Hejian and Tianshui. With Li Wufeng's character, how could he spit out the fat he ate, although Tianshui and Hejian are not fat now, But even if it is a bone, Li Wufeng will never hand it over easily, especially to his third brother. As for the third brother, I am afraid he does not have the guts to carry it. I also dare not take it easily.

However, he has no interest in whether Li Wufeng is interested in returning the land of Heshuo. What he is interested in is whether Li Wufeng is willing to help him take back Huanggang. Huanggang is a major food producer, with Heshuo as a barrier in the north. Its geographical location is safe and important. If it can be recovered, then it is only one step away from unifying the five lakes. It's just that the army in the hands of the third brother is not weak. If you want to rely on yourself It seemed a little powerless to withdraw his strength alone, but with Li Wufeng's assistance, the third brother had no choice but to obediently lose his heart.
