Chapter 378: Calculating Li Mi

Fei Yao compromised, and he decided to lead his army out of the customs and rush to Chenliu. On the line of Chenliu, Yongqiu, confronted the bandit army. On the one hand, he made an active attitude to suppress the bandits, and on the other hand, he issued hints to the white-haired bandits. If the white-haired bandits had a tacit understanding and never interrupted the Tongji Canal, they would temporarily maintain the current situation and wait for the arrival of reinforcements from the Dongdu.

Fei Yao knew that he and Wang Yangqing of Xun were not the same as Cui Baode, and they were divided into two opposing political groups. They had no interest in each other. Even though the Tongjiqu crisis had arrived, the fate of the three people was closely related to the safety of Tongjiqu. However, his situation was the worst. As the general of Wu Benlang of the Weifu, he had the responsibility to go south to suppress the thieves, but the premise was that he had to win the support of the local military and political chief. If Wang Yangqing of Xun and Cui Baode joined forces to restrain him and make small moves behind him, it would be difficult for him to die, so he had to compromise.

Fei Yao led his army out of the pass and rushed to Chenliu along the west bank of Tongji Canal.

The news reached the city of Yongqiu as quickly as possible. When the general manager of the Hu Ben Army Zhen Baoche heard the news, he immediately reported to Li Fengyun, and at the same time informed the general manager of the Central Road, Guo Ming and Cao Kun, the commander of the Second Army of the Alliance, hoping that they could command their troops to move towards Yongqiu. Once the Hu Ben Army fought with the official army, they would get their timely support.

At this moment, Li Fengyun had moved to the bank of Tongji Canal outside Songcheng City, while Lu Mingxing, the general manager of the Cavalry Army, led his army to cross the Tongji Canal and advanced rapidly along the spacious avenue towards Yuzhou.

When Zhen Baoche's urgent report was delivered to the main camp, Li Fengyun, Yuan An, Xiao Yi and Li Mi were discussing the deployment of troops on the battlefield of Tongji Canal. According to Li Fengyun's opinion, in order to maximize the unity within the alliance and reduce the conflicts and frictions between the heroes, he decided to deploy all his direct troops on the western front, namely, Yuzhou. The main camp where the Grand General Administration is located, as well as the four front, back, left and right general administrations, were all deployed on the eastern front, Tongji Canal. In other words, Li Fengyun had no intention of bringing Hebei Haoshuai and Qilu Haoshuai to the battlefield of Dongdu. This plan fully demonstrates that the alliance is not only a food crisis, but also a more serious collapse crisis.

However, what puzzled both the league's top leaders and Li Mi was that Li Fengyun turned a deaf ear to the clearly visible collapse crisis. Not only did he not try to ease it, but he allowed the crisis to spread.

"Aren't you worried about the safety of the alliance?" Li Mi didn't have the opportunity to object directly, so he persuaded tactfully, "You brought the alliance's main force into the western front of Tongji Canal, but you still left all the contradictions and crises in the alliance on the east coast of Tongji Canal. This is obviously not conducive to the unity and convergence within the alliance, and will also seriously damage the morale and fighting spirit of the alliance. Once it evolves into a situation of disintegration, the alliance will be in danger of collapse."

Li Mi's words reached the hearts of Yuan An and others. The league's top leaders were very curious about the mysterious appearance of "Liu Zhiyuan", but everyone could guess something more or less. "Liu Zhiyuan" was a key figure in the Tongji Canal crisis last year, and this year it was the same. It can be seen that this person is extraordinary. Not only is he close to Li Fengyun, but he must be involved in the mutiny in Dongdu. His strength and energy are unimaginable, so everyone is very polite to him and even awe. Li Mi was calm and his performance this time was far more "high-profile" than last year. He has confronted Li Fengyun in front of the league's top leaders many times and has argued with reason.

"Why are you worried about the safety of the alliance?" Li Fengyun was very calm and asked back, "Do you really understand the alliance's covenant? The reason why this alliance exists is completely a need for survival. We are too weak now to withstand the invasion of storms, so we must unite to fight against the powerful enemy. In this process, we must be tenacious and believe in allies, and we must share life and death. Only in this way can we survive. On the contrary, we will be ruthlessly eliminated. You should know that Middle Earth's resources are always limited. If the strong want to live longer, they must eliminate more weak people."

Li Mi looked at Li Fengyun in surprise, a little difficult to understand.

Although Li Fengyun's words were beautiful and high-sounding, in fact, in one sentence, he didn't care about the alliance, or he didn't care about the current alliance. The current alliance is a product of hastily pieced together in a special period, and it is not even a "semi-finished product". But now it is a critical moment in the development of the wind and clouds, and there is no room for mistakes. So conflicts arise. The huge team of the alliance is an unbearable huge burden for Li Fengyun. However, he cannot get rid of this burden, so Li Fengyun's words can hear an unusual "taste".

Li Mi dare not agree with this. In Li Fengyun's heart, is the alliance just a "springboard" in the development process? The alliance has developed to such a scale. As long as it is firmly grasped in its hands, it will be able to dominate a major event, and may become a tyrant, and will be able to dominate the kings, princes, generals and ministers. Li Fengyun turned a blind eye to such temptation? If Li Fengyun really has no intention of controlling the alliance and just treating the alliance as a tool to achieve a certain goal, then what is his purpose?

"Someone is a little confused." Li Mi said bluntly, "Are you sure the alliance will not collapse, or are you ignoring the future of the alliance?"

As soon as this said, the atmosphere suddenly became a little wrong. What moment is now? The preparation moment before the Dongdu Mutiny, a crucial moment, directly related to whether the troops became defeated. However, at such a critical moment, Li Fengyun actually ignored the crisis within the alliance and even allowed the alliance to move towards division and collapse. This was obviously not conducive to the mutiny. Li Mi certainly had reason to doubt Li Fengyun's intentions. What exactly did you think? Since he decided to participate in the mutiny, he had to throw all the power of the entire alliance into it. How could he go back on his word?

"Tongji Canal cannot be interrupted, this is a prerequisite for launching a mutiny." Li Fengyun was still calm and calm, "but in this way, the plunder of a certain person in Tongji Canal will be very limited. Soon, the army of Dongdu will roar, and in order to avoid the enemy's edge, they have to evacuate the Tongji Canal. At that moment, how can the alliance alleviate the food crisis? Since it cannot solve the food crisis, what can we use to maintain our authority and control the entire alliance?"

Li Fengyun finally made the conditions. He wanted food and had to feed his stomach first so that he could have the strength to do things.

Li Mi couldn't help but slander himself. Li Fengyun was too greedy and shameless. There was still some time before the mutiny. It was still a little bit of whether the mutiny could be launched successfully. More importantly, Li Fengyun has not made any contribution to the mutiny so far, but he spoke out loudly. If this or that, would it be great if it continues to develop according to this trend? However, Li Mi had no way to refuse. The Korean Prime Minister must raise the flag and rebel immediately. During the process of raising the flag, the Korean Prime Minister must get Li Fengyun's cooperation and support. Otherwise, even if he raised the flag, it would be meaningless. In the end, Li Fengyun would be in vain.

"I don't know if the Korean Prime Minister can raise the flag immediately, nor do I know if the Korean Prime Minister can raise the flag and pull up a team of 100,000 people in the shortest time."

Li Mi also made the conditions. If you want food, you can help the Korean Prime Minister raise the flag first and give the Korean Prime Minister enough time to recruit 100,000 troops. The alliance has a 100,000 army. If the Korean Prime Minister wants to maintain his independence in the alliance with Li Fengyun and not be merged by Li Fengyun, the only way is to also bring up a huge team of 100,000 people and compete with Li Fengyun. Otherwise, Li Mi would have no way to stop Li Fengyun from "eating" Han Prime Minister, and would have no way to coerce Li Fengyun to act according to Yang Xuangan's orders during the mutiny.

Li Fengyun pondered for a moment and nodded slightly, "When the Prime Minister of Han comes, as long as he is willing to raise the flag immediately, I will do my best to support him, but..." Li Fengyun looked at Li Mi, and his tone gradually became solemn, "Lu Mingxing has taken the cavalry army through Tongji Canal and is rushing to Huaiyang."

Li Mi's face suddenly changed, and she was angry and almost like she opened her mouth to curse, but he forced herself to hold it back.

Li Fengyun had sharp methods. Before the matter of the Han prime minister was turned on, his elite troops were already on Yuzhou. It is certain that just waiting for Lu Mingxing to enter Huaiyang County, burn, kill and loot, would surely shock Yuzhou. The Yingru nobles also had an open excuse to assemble the local armed forces of the township, Tuanzong and the clan regiment on a large scale. This would not only further worsen the situation in Tongji Canal, but also endanger the security of the capital and even the Dongdu, affecting the political situation of the Dongdu. More importantly, it pushed Yang Xuangan and his allies hard on the road to mutiny, and this push was decisive. Yang Xuangan and his allies would definitely launch a military coup with a faster speed and firmer determination under the stimulation of a series of favorable situations.

"Hastyness will lead to failure," Li Mi said coldly, "It is urgent for the Korean Prime Minister to raise the flag. The army of the Eastern Capital is coming in an instant. In the short term, our energy should be focused on the east bank of Tongji Canal, rather than entering Yuzhou to fight at the same time on both the east and west lines of Tongji Canal."

"There is no time. What we lack most now is time. Now it is not that we cannot achieve haste, but that we must run ahead of time at any cost, otherwise everything will fail." Li Fengyun refuted without hesitation, "The current situation is very obvious. The east bank of Tongji Canal is in unprecedented chaos, and there are people taking advantage of the situation in chaos, and there are also people who take advantage of the situation, and there are also despicable villains who have made a move to make cold arrows. In such a chaos, what can I ensure that the Tongji Canal is always smooth?"

Li Mi was speechless.

"So I must enter Yuzhou as quickly as possible, attack cities and villages in Yuzhou, burn and kill and loot in Yuzhou, and threaten the capital with the sudden deterioration of the situation in Yuzhou to restrain part of the Dongdu army, and then alleviate the heavy pressure of our alliance army on the battlefield on the eastern front of Tongjiqu, and help the Korean Prime Minister have better conditions and more time to recruit troops and expand his strength after raising the flag."

When Li Fengyun said this, his expression was firm and his tone was unquestionable. "I need your help, and I need you to rush to Yuzhou for 100,000 yuan. I need you to convince the noble families in Yingru area to give me tacit understanding in the future, so that the soldiers of the alliance can eat and drink, fight bloody on the east and west lines of Tongjiqu, firmly restrain the army of Dongdu and attract the attention of Dongdu."

Li Mi became more and more angry. He was plotted by Li Fengyun and played with him in his palm. What made him even more frustrated was that he had no power to fight back and could only let Li Fengyun mercy. This was a great humiliation, which made him unbearable.

Li Mi's face was ashen and her eyes were gloomy. Everyone could see his resentment, but Li Fengyun ignored it and continued, "After meeting the Prime Minister of Han, you rushed to Yuzhou. The battle on the western front of Tongjiqu is temporarily entrusted to you. After some people have dealt with the matters on the eastern front, they will meet you with Yingchuan."
