Section 24 Joining Hands
Lei Juetian's intuition did not deceive him. At this moment, a large ship from the river between Wen Ning and Baling was not a pleasant laugh. An ordinary dual-purpose passenger and cargo mixed loading ship was disguised very cleverly. From the outside, it was no different from other ships flowing in the river, but it was very different inside. Several strong men were hiding in the dark, watching the coming and going ships with sharp eyes, and they knew they were not an idle person at first glance. The cabin door was half-closed, and although the window lattice was open, it was covered by dark window screens, and nothing inside could be seen. The cabin was very spacious, and the exquisite and delicate decorative style could be seen from the Jiangnan craftsmen. The obvious Jiangnan water town style embellished the cabins with a particularly warm embellishment.
"Mr. Su, it seems that your highness is really going to make a big move on Sanjiang. Even the Lin family's army is cooperating with your highness's army to make adjustments. This seems to be something the two families are going to work together. I heard that the third lady of the Lin family has a little inclement and unclear relationship with your highness. I wonder if this is really the case?" The young man sitting upright was wearing a loose robe embroidered with a cloud and thunder pattern. He picked up the teacup beside the desk and laughed loudly, browsing the urgent news of the arrows shot from the river bank, and asked casually.
"Haha, Your Highness Xiang, we are subordinates who dare not ask about my affairs. Why not when will your Highness come to Hanzhong or Qingyang to ask him personally? Maybe only the person involved knows this kind of thing, but we don't know anything." The elegant and generous Su Qin sat aside in a plain robe, with a tall crown and a wide belt, a shallow smile and a graceful demeanor.
"Well, the Maqi Khans are a little nervous. All your first legions have arrived in Sanjiang?" While reading the emergency report, Situ Biao raised his eyebrows. He was really surprised. He thought that the other party was just pretending to cooperate, but he didn't expect to push the main force to the front desk. Then he changed his mind and Situ Biao suddenly realized: "Good you Su Qin, it turns out that it is Li Wufeng, this guy who has his own ideas. I said why would he be so kind to come from far away and far to express his willingness to support me in restoring Baling? It turns out that you are fighting against the Maqi Khans? Well, is it Loushanguan?"
Seeing the other party smiling and silent, Situ Biao thought about it carefully and then overturned his thoughts, "Impossible. Loushan Pass is now the key target of defense for the Maqi Khan. There are at least 50,000 people stationed. It is easy to defend but difficult to attack. Your Highness will not be so rash. Where will it be? Huayang? Yushan? Without taking Loushan Pass, you will not be able to attack these two places?"
"Your Highness Xiang, Su Qin doesn't know anything about the military situation. Please don't ask Su Qin again." With a helpless smile, Su Qin bowed repeatedly.
"Hmph, will you not know?" He ignored Su Qin and took out the map from the desk to take a closer look. Situ Biao's face was gloomy and clear. "Maqian, yes, which one is more suitable? By the way, Ronesia, it must be here. Su Qin, Su Qin, your highness is really a big appetite. Lei Juetian and Bi Xili had just swallowed North Ronesia from Lin Guoxiong, and you were trying to make a decision again. You are really thinking about it. I'm really thinking about it. Let my army restrain the Maqian. You can do it here, and you are doing it well."
"Your Highness, it's hard to say who will restrain whom. Before we can take action in the south, your army has already been forced under Baling's nose. We just hope that your Highness will cooperate with you after taking Baling and drag down Maqi Khans to go south with all their might. This is a good thing for both sides? Baling is sooner or later in your hands. We are willing to do our part to do our part. Will your Highness still refuse? If you are not sure, I think your Highness will probably not be able to understand so easily with just saying it?" Su Qin smiled and refused. He neither explained whether his side would take action or where he was, but just explained vaguely.
"Hmph, your highness is so lofty." Situ Biao glanced at Su Qin with a smile, obviously because he guessed the other party's intention, but this did not affect his actions. He didn't care whether he had the other party's support. However, Li Wufeng's big move in the south could indeed hold back the hands and feet of the Maqi Khan, making it difficult for the Maqi Khan to take care of the head and tail. After he recovered Baling, he would have a buffer time to consolidate Baling's defense.
"Your Highness, my highness is beneficial to everyone's development. Do you think? Your Highness has no other intentions, but the threat of the Maqi Khan is getting bigger and bigger, and sooner or later it will become a big trouble for everyone. The necessary lesson is also a means. I think your Highness will be happy to see this." Su Qin did not point it out, and continued with a chuckle, "The Maqi Khan has always had quite ambitions for the Wuhu area. Over the years, Wen Ning and Baling have fallen one after another. Your Highness is now enthroned by the Wuhu area, so it is naturally a responsibility to defend the territory. It is also a good thing to weaken the power of the Maqi Khan."
"Haha, Su Qin, I know your noble's idea very well, but as long as he doesn't enter the Five Lakes, we Situ Biao will not care about it. It's not about the taste and do not do anything. We can do whatever he wants, as long as we don't infringe on our interests, everything else is easy to say." Situ Biao was quite proud in his words. The power arranged by his uncle gradually began to surface. The new army he trained was extremely smooth, and his combat power was also tested in the battle with the Milan people. Although it is far from comparable to the Sixth Army, we can proudly say that it is much stronger than the 10th Army of the Seventh Army of the Seventh Army of the Seventh Army and the 8th Army of the Seventh Army of the Seventh Army of the Seventh Army of the Seventh Army of the Seventh Army and the 8th Army of the Seventh Army of the Seventh Army of the Seventh Army of the Seventh Army of the Seventh Army and the 8th Army of the Seventh Army of the Seventh Army of the Seventh Army of the Seventh Army of the Seventh Army and the 8th Army of the Seventh Army of the Seventh Army of the Seventh Army of the Seventh Army of the Seventh Army and the 8th Army of the Seventh Army of the Seventh Army of the Seventh Army of the Seventh Army of the Seventh Army and the Eighth Army of the Ninth Army of the Seventh Army of the Seventh Army of the Seventh Army of the Seventh Army and the Eighth Army of the Ninth Army of the Seventh Army of the Seventh Army of the Seventh Army of the Seventh Army and the Eighth Army of the Ninth Army of the Seventh Army of the Seventh Army of the Seventh Army and the Eighth Army of the Ninth Army of the Seventh Army of the Seventh Army of the Seventh Army and the Eighth Army of the Ninth Army of the Seventh Army of
"Your Highness Xiang, you don't know what my highness thinks. As long as it is a royal thing, we will never get involved in the Western Xinjiang. Your Highness Jin suddenly sent troops to loot Jincheng and plunder hundreds of thousands of dans of reserve grain from Western Xinjiang. Your Highness didn't even say a word, and even caused accusations from the people of Guanxi. It's enough to reflect the sincerity of my Highness." Su Qin explained calmly.
Situ Biao naturally knew about this matter. With Li Wufeng's character, he had no response after suffering such a big loss. In addition to not being suitable to march into Huanggang in military terms, the more important reason is probably the identity of the third brother? After all, the third brother is a member of the Situ family like him, and the world belongs to the Situ family. Li Wufeng is just a vassal king with a deserted northwest. It is already a gift from the empire to be granted the land of Guanxi. If he dares to provoke a war against the Situ family, he will definitely be strongly resisted outside the territory.
"Hehe, the third brother is indeed a bit unreasonable. If you really need to lack food, as soon as you speak, will your Highness still refuse to save you? Your Highness is very generous with Your Highness. When you speak, you can only have five million dans of food, which is still affordable. Your Highness is probably so happy that he can't even sleep. I heard that the Sisro people are also buying grain from your Highness. You dare to sell such an enemy. Then when will I buy some surplus food from your Highness?" Situ Biao glanced at Su Qin intentionally or unintentionally.
"Haha, Your Highness, this food problem has always been in control by my Highness. Others, including Lord Xiao, have no right to take charge. If Your Highness wants to buy food, you might as well discuss it with your Highness directly." Su Qin pushed the topic away with a sentence. These people from the Situ family really thought that the world was still under the control of their Situ family. They spoke more and more arrogantly, saying that they would ask for food. They thought that Your Highness was their slaves and retainers. Su Qin could not say disgust in his heart, but his appearance was extremely respectful. "But the area of the King of Jin was a bit too much. Although my Highness did not say anything, he was still quite angry inside. Such behavior was like a robber, which really disgraces the reputation of the royal family. If Your Highness intends to take back the northern territory, I think my Highness will be happy to see it."
"Oh? Your Highness really said this?" Situ Biao was happy, then restrained his emotions and pretended to be indifferent and said lightly: "The third brother has no place to stay. I am a brother who is not willing to force him."
"Since you are living in other people's territory, you should be honest and honest. After raising more than 100,000 troops, Su Qin could not imagine how His Highness King Jin could support him? Isn't Jinzhong back to the empire now? The two palaces of Heshan Longquan were not very interested in the Kaman people, and it would be a matter of time before Su Qin saw that the Kaman people were abandoned. It would be a matter of time before His Highness King Jin could go to his own territory. As for Hejian Tianshui, as long as His Highness King Jin could convince his Highness, it would be impossible to return it to His Highness King Jin." Su Qin said silently.
Situ Biao sneered at Su Qin's statement that Li Wufeng was willing to exchange Hejian and Tianshui Mansions. With Li Wufeng's personality, how could he spit out the fat meat he had eaten? Although Tianshui and Hejian are not fat now, even if they are bones, Li Wufeng will never trade it easily, especially when it is handed over to his third brother. As for the third brother, he probably doesn't have the courage to carry it. After all, the Kaman people are on the side and can go south at any time. If they change themselves, they dare not take it easily.
However, he had no interest in whether Li Wufeng was interested in returning the land of Heshuo. What he was interested in was whether Li Wufeng was willing to help him recover Huanggang. Huanggang is a grain-producing mansion, and Heshuo was used as a barrier in the north. The geographical location was safe and important. If he could be recovered, he would be only one step away from unifying the Five Lakes. However, the third brother had a strong army. If he wanted to recover it with his own strength, he seemed a little helpless. However, with Li Wufeng's assistance, the third brother might have to lose sincerity.
