Chapter 316: Sworn with Du Fuwei

Before Wei Fusi said goodbye, he hesitated for a long time and could not help asking a question. He was unwilling to accept that he did not fulfill the trust of the King of Qi on this trip. It was difficult for him to convince the King of Qi after he returned, and he could not even convince himself. For this reason, he had to find a reasonable reason. However, with his political wisdom, he was frustrated to find that he could not solve this problem and had to rely on Li Fengyun.

Since Li Fengyun rejected the King of Qi's revenge and determined that the King of Qi had no possibility of staying in the Eastern Capital, the reason could not be that there were only a few known reasons.

"In your opinion, before the Holy Lord left the Eastern Capital and embarked on the expedition north, which prince would he arrange to stay in the Eastern Capital?

This question always bothered Wei Fusi, and he could not find the answer, and this answer was definitely the best reason for him to persuade the King of Qi to give up and strive to stay in Dongdu.

Under Wei Fusi's expectant gaze, Li Fengyun nodded slightly.

Li Fengyun seemed to know that Wei Fusi was overwhelmed under heavy pressure and needed to find some seemingly real reasons from future predictions to comfort his fragile heart. Recently, Li Fengyun's series of accurate predictions gave Wei Fusi some psychological hints and dependence, making him increasingly superstitious and illusory things such as prophecies, celestial phenomena, and numerology. Considering the importance of King Yang Nan of Qi and Wei Fusi to the future development of the alliance and the future direction of Middle-earth, Li Fengyun decided to comfort Wei Fusi's panicked and confused heart, allowing him to see a little light in the dark.

"Yang Tong, King of Yue." Li Fengyun's tone was very firm and unquestionable.

Wei Fusi was stunned, then fell into deep thought, his eyes becoming more and more suspicious.

Why is it not King Zhao Yang Gao? King Zhao Yang Gao is the illegitimate son of the Holy Lord. His mother, Xiao Concubine Xiao, comes from Jiangzuo. After the legitimate prince of Queen Xiao, Yang Nan, who was basically born to Queen Xiao, basically lost the right to inherit, he would definitely support King Zhao Yang Gao. In addition, Cui Hongjun of the Cui clan in Shandong has been appointed as the chief secretary of King Zhao. Since Cui clan was forcibly "kidnapping" on the "ship" of King Zhao, of course, he should do his best to help King Zhao fight for the imperial rule.

Why is it not King Yan Yang Zhen? King Yan Yang is the eldest grandson of the Holy Lord, and the eldest son of Prince Yuande. Prince Yuande has no legitimate son. Therefore, according to the inheritance rules, King Yan Yang Zhen should be the third heir to rank behind King Qi Yang Nan and King Zhao Yang Gao.

The mother of King Yang Zhen of Yan, Liu Liangdi, came from a noble family of eight surnames. Although he died early, the wealthy family of Liu would not give up his support for him. However, compared with King Yang Zhen of Yan, Yang Tong of Yue and King Yang You of Dai, the support behind him is too weak. The mother of King Yang You of Dai was from the Wei family, and the local wealthy family of Guanlong behind him is too strong. The mother of King Yang Tong of Yue, Liu Liangdi, also came from a noble family of eight surnames, and his mother is still alive, which inevitably makes the wealthy family of Liu's support for him. In addition, Cui Zi of Shandong has been appointed as the chief of the Yue Palace. The addition of Shandong forces has pushed the strength of King Yang Tong of Yue to a new height, so it is natural for King Yang Tong of Yue to surpass King Yang Zhen of Yan in the battle for the imperial rule.

According to this analysis, there are only two candidates who stayed in the Eastern Capital, including King Yang Gao of Zhao and King Yang Tong of Yue, while King Yang Gao of Zhao was obvious.

But Li Fengyun predicted that the person who stayed in the Eastern Capital was King Yang Tong. Based on this prediction, Wei Fusi immediately discovered the "shortcoming" of King Yang Gao of Zhao, that is, his right-hand man was from Jiangzuo and the other from Shandong. He seemed strong, but he violated the taboos of Guanlong people. The Guanlong people would not let the Jiangzuo and Shandong people unite to overwhelm themselves in the battle for imperial rule.

Indeed, Li Fengyun's prediction is reasonable. The most suitable candidate for those who stay in Dongdu is King Yang Dong.

Wei Fusi immediately grabbed the "pivot", found the answer he needed to beat him, and then bowed to say goodbye.

As time quickly entered February, the battle situation in Qi County changed rapidly. The biggest change was Meng Rang and Zuo Junheng and Zuo Junxing from Changbai Mountain, and Zuo Junxing brothers went down the mountain.

Zhang Xutuo avoided the enemy's edge, constantly shrank his troops, and gave up the city. The Changbai Mountain Rebel Army was as powerful as a bamboo shoot, and the blockers were invincible. He successively captured Boping and Pingling, advanced to Juhe City, and held troops on the western line of Jishan, facing the alliance army dozens of miles away at Huabuzhushan.

Zhang Xutuo defended the city and could not retreat. The alliance army surrounded but did not attack. After the Changbai Mountain Rebel Army arrived in Jishan, it stopped decisively and contacted the alliance while observing the situation.

Li Fengyun met the Changbai Mountain Rebel Army Special Envoy Du Fuwei and Fu Gonghu at the Kuangshan Camp. The current situation is beneficial to the rebel army. The two sides are in a happy mood when they meet and have a good conversation.

Li Fengyun's attitude towards Du and Fu is as always. He not only treats Du and Fu equally, but also treats him equally and respects, but also is as intimate as a brother. This makes Du and Fu flatter. After all, Li Fengyun today is no longer the most powerful general in the Middle-earth Rebel Army. He has tens of thousands of troops, scattered in Henan, Xuzhou and Qilu, and is invincible, and has a reputation. The difference between Du Fuwei and Fu Gonghu is too great.

Li Fengyun was very concerned about the development of the two and asked very carefully. He learned that the two were limited by the harsh conditions of Qi County and the conflicts between the heroes and the powerful generals within the rebel army, not only did not develop during this period but also reduced their strength, and his brows immediately frowned.

He had already predicted the result of this battle. If the Qi and Lu rebels want to win, they will win miserably and survive with difficulty. Once they are defeated, they will run wildly and go their separate ways, and it will be difficult to make any difference. If Zhang Xutuo wins, he will definitely take advantage of the situation and kill the heroes of northeast Shandong and run away with their heads.

In history, various rebels such as Meng Rang from Changbai Mountain, Zuo brothers from Beihai, Guo Fangyu from Qin Junhong, and even Zuo Xiaoyou from Donglai were defeated by Zhang Xutuo during this period. Some had to leave Qilu and fight around, while others surrendered to Zhang Xutuo and used it for Zhang Xutuo. Only a very small number of people persevered, but the rebels from Qilu were in a slump and lost the qualification to compete for hegemony. The most obvious example is Wang Bo, the first heroic coach to rebel with the flag, but he was unknown and mediocre in the tide of hegemony.

The famous rebel leaders in history, such as Du Fuwei, Fu Gonghu, Li Zitong, etc., all came from Qilu, and came from Changbai Mountain. They all went south after the Qilu rebels fell into a low tide. Based on the current situation, most of these people left Qilu after this battle.

Li Fengyun looked grim and silent. This expression changed into Du Fuwei and Fu Gonghu's eyes, but he thought Li Fengyun was disappointed with them. At that time, Li Fengyun did his best to help them when they were in trouble, giving money, food, and weapons, and even threatening Meng Rang to increase their manpower and increase their treatment. As a result, they were not successful and failed Li Fengyun's expectations. They have not become the leader of the rebel army who is the only one. They have been in a miserable state. They can even say that if they were not the "bridge" for Meng Rang and others to keep in touch with Li Fengyun, they would not have the backing of Li Fengyun, and Meng Rang and others to them have long "eat" them without even leaving their bones.

"What are your predictions for this battle?" Li Fengyun asked, "How much chance do we have to win?"

Du Fuwei and Fu Gonghu looked at each other, Fu Gonghu was afraid and said, "If Wang Shuai crossed the river and went south, Hebei people would help each other, and the three-way attack strategy was successfully implemented, we would have at least 50% chance of winning."

Li Fengyun narrowed his eyes slightly, his eyes sharply, and an invisible pressure suddenly scattered. The two teenagers sitting opposite him were suddenly frightened and uneasy. Although they were also war-torn rebel generals and had been tempered by life and death, they were still much worse than those of Li Fengyun, such a fierce general like Li Fengyun.

"Why is there only 50% chance of winning?" Li Fengyun asked.

"You have said before that the best fighter plane is around the New Year. If it is dragged to the river and unblocked, the Donglai Navy will recover its vitality and enter the inland river to fight, the fighter plane will be lost." Du Fuwei said with a tough bullet, "So, I think that this battle has only a maximum chance of winning."

Li Fengyun nodded and continued to ask, "If the battle is defeated, what will happen?"

"The worst thing is us." Du Fuwei saw Li Fengyun's face relaxed, and his nervous mood suddenly relaxed. "Under the siege of the official army, we will inevitably suffer heavy losses and will have difficulty in survival."

"Is this why you stationed troops in Jishan, stayed away from the battlefield in Licheng, and watched the tiger fight?" Li Fengyun asked afterwards.

Du Fuwei smiled bitterly and shook his head, not daring to respond. In fact, the Changbai Mountain Rebel Army was weak and it was difficult to achieve even if it joined the battlefield. The reason why tens of thousands of troops in the alliance surrounded and did not attack was that they were not strong enough, but everyone did not attack, and let time pass by little. When the Donglai Navy came, the strength comparison between the two sides was too great, so there was no need to fight this battle.

"Can you contact Wang Shuai from Douzigang?" Li Fengyun changed the topic, "When will Wang Shuai go south?"

Du Fuwei continued to shake his head, "Only Meng Shuai is the secret, Zuo Shuai knows this secret. When Meng Shuai and Zuo Shuai come, you can ask in detail."

Li Fengyun nodded, "Shan sent an envoy to Jishan with your brothers to invite Meng Shuai and Zuo Shuai to join forces to discuss strategies to attack the enemy." Speaking of this, he turned his head and looked at Yuan An who was sitting with him, and smiled, "The war is imminent, and these two brothers are poor and empty-handed. If they go to the battlefield, they may not be able to get out. Yuan Sima see how much reserves we have in our warehouse. Can you help appropriately?"

Yuan An was surprised. What is outstanding about these two teenagers? It deserves Li Fengyun's help again and again

Du Fuwei and Fu Gonghu were both surprised and happy, and ashamed. Their brothers came together, of course they wanted to ask for help, but they themselves did not do anything and failed Li Fengyun's expectations. They really couldn't speak out. Unexpectedly, Li Fengyun was understanding and offered to help. The two of them were grateful and secretly swear that this was the last time they asked Li Fengyun for help. If they could not make any more achievements, they would never see Li Fengyun again.

"Ming Gong, we have sufficient hiding, but what is appropriate?" Yuan An said with a hint of dissatisfaction. How much do you want to help them? What is the purpose? Could it be that we should demonstrate to Meng Rang and other heroes through this method?

"How many people do you have now?" Li Fengyun did not answer Yuan An, and instead asked Du and Fu brothers.

"More than one thousand four hundred brothers." Du Fuwei replied hurriedly.

"There are too few people." Li Fengyun frowned, "If you cannot gain a foothold in Qilu after this battle, you will have to go south to survive. If you don't have the power to protect yourself, the consequences will be unimaginable."

Yuan An was surprised. He had more or less guessed the purpose of Li Fengyun's attack on Qi County. After the battle was over, Li Fengyun was most likely to cross the river and head north. It was difficult to take care of Du and Fu brothers. Since that was the case, why didn't he recruit them? Why did he let the young men die in a difficult environment? Yuan An couldn't figure it out, and he really couldn't guess Li Fengyun's thoughts.

Brother Du and Fu are also very strange. What does Li Fengyun mean? Is he sure that this battle will definitely be defeated? He said that if we cannot establish ourselves in Qilu, we will go south to survive. Obviously, we are not optimistic about this battle. Since that is the case, why should we fight? Why can't we join him in the face of danger? Should he leave Qilu? If he wants to leave Qilu, where is his goal?

While the two brothers were guessing, Li Fengyun spoke, "If someone gave you four thousand people food and grass weapons, can you bring together a team of four thousand people in the shortest time?"

Before Li Fengyun finished speaking, brother Du and Fu were shocked. This is too helpful, right? Why is the handsome white-haired to us so good? What is his purpose?

Yuan An was also surprised and immediately dissuaded, "Ming Gong, you are not helping them, you are trying to kill them. Every man is innocent and is guilty of possessing a treasure. Who is not jealous of you giving them so much money, food and weapons? If you protect them for a while, can you protect them for a lifetime? Ming Gong, it must not."

Li Fengyun shook his hand and stopped Yuan An's advice. He looked at Du and asked, "Can you bring up a team of 4,000 people?"

Du Fuwei shook his head, and Fu Gongfu said carefully, "We are the subordinates of Meng Shuai." The implication is that Meng Rang could never allow them to develop to a level that is comparable to them.

"If you are Li Fengyun's brother and Yi Jie Jinlan's brother, will Meng Rang still dare to suppress you? Do the Zuo brothers dare to threaten you?"

Yuan An was stunned. Li Fengyun's incredible thoughts had exceeded his understanding of the world. His only thought was that Li Fengyun was crazy.

Du Fuwei and Fu Gonghu were also stunned. How could this be possible? This is something they dare not dream of. Although Li Fengyun may have helped them again and again out of sympathy or mercy, or other unknown reasons, this does not mean that Li Fengyun and they are people in the same "world"

Rebellion in this era also requires capital and strength. Qilu has many nobles, but they are all nobles. Only nobles have status, status, knowledge and wealth, and this is the appeal. Different times, the "threshold" of rebels is also different. Just imagine a green forest thief who kills and robs and does evil deeds, and a farmer who is not honest in his words. How many people can he raise? Du Fuwei and Fu Gonghu are both civilians, with low social status, and strict hierarchy has penetrated their blood. With their current strength and understanding of this era, there is no consciousness to subvert social laws. In their eyes, Li Fengyun is a noble. Because the nobles and heroes are all nobles, they take it for granted that Li Fengyun is also a noble. Commoners and nobles are sworn in this subvert their understanding of the hierarchy.
