Chapter 854

(Thanks to the support of Black Willow Sword, Zi Yunxinmeng, Little Feilong Jian, Yizhou slightly drunk, and Thanks to the strong support of the Master of Little Feilong Jian Hall, thank you!)

Looking at the Yanjing City outside the car window, he almost didn't recognize it, as if he was walking in another world. A year ago, it was just a military city in the northern border area full of chaos, but now, it is not only a military city, but also a cultural and economic center.

How long did Li Jing rule here? But it is said that Yanjing City has exceeded one million people. Even if the number of people living in the army and migrant population has reached 500,000. If the population of the two acropolis, Tianjin and Tangshan, is combined, the population of the entire Youzhou has reached 2 million.

Before he set off in Huaixi, he knew that Li Jing was fighting outside the Hu people outside the Great Wall, so this time he came, called birthday celebrations, actually wanted to take this opportunity to have a good talk with Li Jing and fight for greater benefits for Huaixi Town. He was not satisfied with Li Jing's identity as a disciple, nor was he willing to be Li Jing's agent in Huaixi all the time. What he wanted was an equal with Li Jing. He even planned to send people to Chengdu to contact the emperor after the negotiations with Li Jing, directly contact the court, and strive for the title of king for himself.

Before entering Yanjing City, he found that 200,000 Hu people had entered Daibei, and Li Jing had mobilized all the troops, including the rural militia scholars, to personally conquer Daibei and make a desperate bet. At that time, he was very happy and thought that Li Jing's current situation was not good, which was a great opportunity for him to negotiate with Li Jing. However, after his sister Yang Lihua took him to visit Yanjing, his heart had changed a lot.

Li Jing's strength is far stronger than he expected!

How should he make a decision? Should he continue his original judgment and make his own request to Li Jing at this time, or?

He shook his head secretly in his heart. What if Li Jing was not as determined as he had made? If Li Jing was not dangerous, he would have achieved the same victory as before in this battle with the Hu people. Then, will he make more demands at this time betrayed by Li Jing? Then, will Li Jing continue to support him as before? Or will Li Jing support another guy to deal with him as before?

Didn’t Li Jing just like to do this? Just like in Huainan, he supported himself against Gao Pian. In western Zhejiang, he supported Qian Liu against Zhou Bao. Gao Pian was so strong at the time, but now he only guarded Yang and Chuzhou, and it was dull and dusk.

When he thought of the news that Xu Wen found, Li Jing also fought with the troops outside the Great Wall at this time, sending six legions of about 400,000 to 500,000 troops to start the battlefield. But even if Li Jing had to mobilize the village militia to fight the 200,000 Hu people in front of the village, he did not mobilize the garrisons in Jianghuai and Shandong at all, which made him vaguely feel that Li Jing had not reached the most critical moment, otherwise he would never leave the 100,000 troops in the Huai and Sihe Ji area. Since Li Jing did not transfer these troops, it only means one thing. Li Jing had full confidence in the next personal expedition.

Sure enough, Li Jing always likes to keep a hand.

I heard that Li Jing likes to leave an elite soldier as a reserve force no matter when he uses troops. It seems that the tens of thousands of troops in Huai Sihe River are Li Jing's reserve army.

"Brother, do you want to go to the zoo to see it?" Yang Lihua's voice interrupted Yang Xingmi's thoughts. He was stunned and then he realized that the carriage had arrived at the entrance of the zoo. He glanced out through the car window and saw that the zoo door was crowded with people queuing up to buy tickets. He shook his head, "I suddenly felt a little tired, so let's go back first today."

Xu Wen looked at some Yang Xingmi. He thought to himself and said with a smile: "Since my brother is uncomfortable, why don't we go home? We'll have fun today anyway." He saw that Yang Xingmi's sudden mood changed, and he must have something to worry about.

The carriage returned to Diaoyutai State Guesthouse.

After Yang Lihua left in a car, Yang Xingmi immediately summoned Xu Wen and Yuan Xi and other subordinates to discuss secretly.

"Dunmei, how do you feel when you are visiting Yanjing today?" Yang Xing looked at Xu Wen closely.

"Brother, I have a lot of feelings, but in summary, there is only one word, strong! Qin Fan is truly rich and strong, and Qin King Li Jing is unfathomable!" Xu Wen sighed.

Yang Xingmi nodded, "I think so too. It seems that our previous plans have to make some adjustments. I plan to fully support the King of Qin this battle. As long as the King of Qin needs it, we can mobilize troops and extract grain."

Many people under the seat showed surprise, which was completely contrary to the plan agreed before coming.

Only the strategist Yuan Xi stroked his long beard and smiled and nodded repeatedly, "The general's eyes were like a torch, and he saw very accurately. Li Jing was very strong. Not to mention that he was unlikely to lose this battle, even if he would lose, it would be useless. He has such a foundation, and one or two battles would not affect his foundation at all. If we support him at this time, it would be equivalent to a timely help. Although our Huaixi Town now has a small foundation, it is still too far from the world's most powerful vassal like Qin Fan. This time we went north, we also saw the real difference between the two sides. I thought that within at least three years, we should not try to separate from Li Jing. On the contrary, we should follow Li Jing's footsteps so that we can develop with all our strength. Within three years, Li Jing will not be a hindrance to our development, but a helper for our development."

"But Li Jing's eyes are now in the north, but if he wins this battle, he will enter Huaixi and take over our territory, what should he do?" Someone said worriedly. This time they went north, out of concern. The north of their Huaixi Town is already the two states of Shou and Hao controlled by Li Jing. If Li Jing goes south to annex their territory, they will really be unable to resist.

"No, no, at least not for the time being. Even if Li Jing wins the Hu battle, within two or three years, Li Jing's focus will be on Hebei, Hedong, or even Central Plains, and Guanzhong. In short, Li Jing's actions have a clear purpose. He defeated Gao Pian at the beginning, but do you see that he took the opportunity to defeat Gao Pian in one fell swoop? It's not that he can't, but he doesn't want to. Li Jing's foundation is in the north, so even if he took the opportunity to seize the Huai and Si area, it was to block the land of Shandong." Yuan Xi analyzed.

At this time, a knock on the door sounded outside, and Li Jian, who was going out to inquire about the news, walked in.

"Brother, just got the news. The brothers who stayed in Tianjin discovered that Qian Liu, the governor of the Zhendong Army, had just arrived in Tianjin City with a fleet. Li Jing's envoy had already greeted them at the dock and were now coming to Yanjing."

Upon hearing this news, everyone present couldn't help but look.

Qian Liu, this is not a stranger. Qian Liu is now the governor of Zhendong Army and the governor of Hangzhou. Just southeast of Xuanzhou, their newly acquired territory, the two families are neighbors. Moreover, Qian Liu is also Li Jing's thirteen disciples, and like Yang Xingmi, he is a brother and Qian Liu's sister, married Li Jing.

In essence, Yang Xingmi and Qian Li are the same, they are Li Jing's agents in the southeast. Li Jing's support for Yang Xingmi to restrain Gao Pian and Qian Li is to restrain Zhou Bao for him. Helping him stabilize the situation in the south and make him have all his strength to look north.

At this time, Qian Liu suddenly headed north, afraid that he had only one goal.

"Do you know what they are here for this time?" Yang Xingmi asked.

"Qian Liu was on the banner of celebrating the birthday of the King of Qin. Moreover, the news sent back by the brothers in Tianjin was that Qian Liu did not come alone. He also brought a large amount of food and an army of 10,000 people!"

Qian Liu brought 20,000 troops to come. It was absolutely impossible for him to fight with Li Jing, and naturally it was impossible for him to just bring escorts. Who would bring 10,000 people to Tianjin Port from Hangzhou Bay?

There is only one possibility. Damn Qian Liu was one step ahead of them. He was here to show his loyalty. These ten thousand people were here to support Li Jing in a fight with the Hu people.

Bang, Yang Xingmi's fist hit the table hard. Damn, he was one step late. Although he and Qian Liu were still in peace, their territory was already connected. Qian Liu was actually very dissatisfied with him sending troops across the Yangtze River and occupying Xuanzhou in the north of Hangzhou. It was precisely because both sides were Li Jing's disciples that there was no conflict. But the contradiction had already arisen.

When he, Yang Xingmi, defeated Gao Pian in the future, it would be impossible to compete for territory with Li Jing north, so he could only go south and west. At that time, sooner or later, he would have to fight Qian Liu.

Yang Xingmi is very familiar with Qian Li, and he is no longer familiar with him. When he sold salt, Qian Li also sold salt. Both sides were still popular for territories, but at that time they were just small salt vendors, and they were finally suppressed by the big salt vendors Huang Chao and Wang Xianzhi and could not continue to do it. He changed his career to become a bandit, and Qian Li later changed his career to become a Tutuan Township soldier. These years have passed, and now the two have become Li Jing's disciples together, and they are still neighbors with their brother-in-law. They are really destined to be together.

"Dunmei, you will return to Huaixi immediately and transfer 10,000 people from Huaixi immediately to the north. No, transfer 15,000 and raise a batch of grain to transport it. Damn, we can't be left to the point of being Qian Po!" Yang Xingmi was not angry. They were both Li Jing's agents in the southeast. If Li Jing was very moved by Qian Li's loyalty and would support him more in the future, the support they could get would definitely be less.

"Do you think about it if you transfer 15,000 troops to the north? We have an old thief Gao Pian to the east and a guy Qin Zongquan to the northwest. We have to be careful."
