Wang Fengshan asked, "What do you think Li Conggu will do?"

Lu Zhongxun said indifferently: "As soon as Zhang Jinghui died, his sons broke out in internal strife. Li Conggu would never let such a good opportunity go. This time, Tian Zhang, the governor of Youzhou, was defeated, and the biggest threat was lifted. Chen Qingzhu and Gao Shancai dared not fight with him. Zhaozhou and other five prefectures have become Li Conggu's possession."

Speaking of this, Lu Zhongxun stood up and walked back and forth, his expression also became heavy. After a moment, he stopped and pointed at Wang Fengshan and continued: "The geographical location of Zhaozhou is very important for Weizhou. In terms of military strategy, if Zhaozhou falls into Tian Zhang's hands, to the north, Li Conggu must face the powerful Oroqenhu tribe and to the west, and to guard against Tian Zhang's military threat. Once this situation occurs, Li Conggu will fall into an extremely passive situation."

"Whether Zhang Jinghui dies is not important to Li Conggu. What is important is the ownership of Zhaozhou, maintaining the status quo, and continuing to maintain the situation of checks and balances between the five major vassal states. Li Conggu is acceptable, but once Zhang Jinghui dies, the other three major vassal states are all ready to move, preparing for their troops, and they all want to take the opportunity to swallow Zhaozhou. In this situation, from Li Conggu's standpoint, there is no problem with him sending troops to attack Tian Zhang."

Wang Fengshan looked at Lu Zhongxun in surprise. He did not expect that as a civil servant, Lu Zhongxun had such an accurate vision of military thinking.

Lu Zhongxun said it right. The five major vassal states in Hebei have both unity and struggle, but overall, most of the time, they still maintain a situation of checks and balances between each other. This relatively balanced situation has been maintained for decades. Now, with the death of Zhang Jinghui, problems have arisen within Zhaozhou. The balanced situation that has been maintained for many years has finally changed.

Wang Fengshan nodded and said, "I understand that Li Conggu's mind is actually very simple. It's like treating a meal. When the dishes are served, either they don't move. Once someone takes action, Li Conggu will immediately turn over the table and start first."

Lu Zhongxun nodded and said, "It depends on Li Conggu now. How to buy Zhaozhou in."

Wang Fengshan said, "What do you think?"

Lu Zhongxun said: "After all, we represent the court, and Li Conggu cannot ignore the appearance of eating at all, and the methods may not be too strong."

Wang Fengshan smiled bitterly and said, "If you have strong methods or not, the ending will not change."

Lu Zhongxun shook his head and sighed: "What we can do is just two words, do our best."

"Mr. Lu, my general is invited." While the two were talking, a voice came from outside the door.

"knew."

Lu Zhongxun replied, stood up, and said to Wang Fengshan: "I'm going to meet Li Conggu, you won't come and go with you. Go and meet Yue Helin, and maybe you can find some useful information from him."

Wang Fengshan also stood up, nodded, and agreed.

Lobby.

After listening to Yang Dan's detailed report, Li Conggu was stunned and said in surprise: "Tian Zhang's 50,000 troops are all over?"

Yang Shan said: "Ten thousand cavalry were sent to Pingzhou. The third general was leading the army to Pingzhou at this moment. The 40,000 troops around Tian Zhang were almost wiped out. His youngest son was killed in the battle. Tian Zhang and his eldest son Tian Han fled back to Youzhou with more than a hundred remaining soldiers."

Li Conggu frowned and said, "Do you intend to let Tian Zhang run away?"

Forty thousand troops were completely wiped out, and so many troops were killed. How could Tian Zhang and more than a hundred people run away easily?

Yang Shan said: "The last general dare not hide it. Tian Zhang was indeed the third general who deliberately let him go."

Li Conggu looked at Yang Dan and said in a low voice: "Give me an explanation."

Yang Dan bowed his hands and said in a deep voice: "The third general said that Tian Zhang is mediocre, but he is full of talents. He is easier to deal with when he is alive than when he dies."

Hearing this sentence, Li Conggu nodded and had a smile on his face.

Tian Zhang is very mediocre, but he has many talents under his command. There are many powerful generals in the army, and there are not a few who have outstanding abilities. Once Tian Zhang is killed, Youzhou will definitely elect a new military leader. If you really want to make smart people come out and deal with them in the future, it will increase the difficulty. It is better to let Tian Zhang live. As long as he lives for one day, he will still make the decision on Youzhou. Such a situation is undoubtedly a good thing for Weizhou.

Chen Jinghui said coldly at this time: "It is better to be a simpler martial artist."

Li Conggu looked at Chen Jinghui and said unhappily: "General Fighting the Strategy, Congshan is doing it right. Don't be sarcastic and uncomfortable, you old guy.

Chen Jinghui smiled and said, "It's better to feel sad now than to feel sad in the future."

After saying that, Chen Jinghui said to Li Chengliang: "Young Master, is this right?"

Li Chengliang laughed and said, "My third brother is both good at civil and military affairs, which is a good thing."

Chen Jinghui rolled his eyes: "You guy said good things, but I have become a bad guy."

Li Conggu waved his hand and said impatiently: "Tell me the serious business, chat, go out and say it."

Chen Jinghui smiled and stopped talking.

Li Chengliang glanced at Chen Jinghui with a dull look.

Li Conggu pointed to Yang Shan and said, "Congshan asked you to come back, what else is there?"

Li Conggu trusted Li Congshan very much. This time he went to the battle, he gave Li Congshan full authority, and he made a decision on his own without asking for instructions.

Although Li Conggu did this, Li Congshan could not have no sense at all. If there is no hurry to do some major matters, he would definitely send someone back and ask for instructions. This is the most basic respect.

"The three generals have two things, and they need the instructions of the general."

Yang Shan said: "First, the 10,000 cavalry sent by Tian Zhang to Pingzhou are elite troops and they were eliminated like this. It is a pity that the third general asked the general to surrender the opponent's chief general at a certain cost and conditions. The second and third generals hope that the matter in Zhaozhou can be resolved peacefully."

Li Conggu said: "What is the idea of ​​following good deeds?"

Yang Shan said: "If Zhang Cheng and others are willing to give up their military power and run away from Hebei, they will never come back. The third general hopes that the general can save their lives."

Li Conggu remained silent, obviously hesitating.

Chen Jinghui sneered, "If you cut the grass and don't eradicate the roots, there will be future troubles."

Li Chengliang said indifferently: "The third brother has a good personal relationship with Zhang Cheng, and Zhang Cheng is very helpful to him. Now the overall situation is settled. It is no big deal for the third brother to let Zhang Cheng go."

Chen Jinghui said to Li Conggu: "Brother, if you should break it, you should break it. Don't be kind to a woman."

Li Conggu thought for a while and finally said to Yang Shan: "Tell Congshan to take down the person first. As for whether to die or live, we will discuss it later."

"Yes, Grandmaster."

Yang Shan said: "Master, if there is nothing else, I will go back now."

Li Conggu waved his hand and said, "Go, tell Congshan my son, let go and do it. I am full of confidence in him."

"The end will be resigned."

Yang Dan bowed and then turned around and left.
