Fang Xuanzao discussed this issue with Li Mi before leaving, and what to use to show their sincerity. Fang Xuanzao pondered for a moment and said, "We don't have many things to take out. When we defeated Yu Culture, we seized it in time.

Shaocaibao, if Your Highness does not dislike you, we are willing to share it with Your Highness King Chu.

Yu Wenji's wealth is the wealth that Yang Guang brought to Jiangdu and transported hundreds of large ships, with only tens of thousands of kilograms of gold, not to mention those jewelry, jade, and rare objects. He can accept them.

In minting coins and filling the wealth of the imperial court.

Thinking of this, Yang Yuanqing smiled and said, "I wonder how much is the King of Wei willing to share with me?"

Fang Xuanzao was overjoyed, but Yang Yuanqing was willing to accept it, and everything was easy to discuss. He hurriedly said: "We have not used those wealth so far. What the King of Wei mentioned is to share half of it with His Highness."

Yang Yuanqing nodded and changed the topic, "But! I have to add another condition."

Fang Xuanzao sighed in his heart. Yang Yuanqing was indeed not so easy to pass on. He had his own ideas. No matter how much wealth they gave, it would be useless. If he had known, he would have listened to his request first.

Fang Xuanzao felt a little regretful, but it was too late to regret. He had no choice but to say helplessly: "Please tell me your Highness!"

"I want two people."

Yang Yuanqing said calmly: "Actually, Mr. Fang and King Wei should understand what I need. Those two people have no meaning to you. Your country name has been changed, and they have become dispensable people.

, Losing it will not affect the overall situation, but it is different for us. I hope the King of Wei can give me these two people."

Fang Xuanzao certainly knew who Yang Yuanqing was talking about. When Empress Xiao and the Crown Prince Yang and Li Mi first captured them, they had high hopes for them, hoping that through them, they could become the orthodox of the Great Sui Dynasty and gain a battle for the world with the Tang Dynasty.

political capital.

But Li Mi soon discovered that he had no meaning to get these two people, but instead made the soldiers disinterested. The soldiers of the Wagang Army themselves were against the Sui Dynasty. They did not recognize the Sui Dynasty, and the famous families in various places did not get these two people because of them.

The recognition of them as orthodox Sui Dynasty made Li Mi extremely depressed.

After repeated weighing the pros and cons, Li Mi finally decided to give up the so-called orthodox Sui Dynasty who deceived himself and changed the country's name to the Western Wei Dynasty. In this way, Empress Xiao and Yang Qing only had the role of maintaining the former officials.

Although Fang Xuanzao knew that the two people had little effect, he had no right to make decisions and had to nod his head. Thinking of this, Fang Xuanzao bowed and said, "I understand the mood of His Highness the King of Chu." But this

I have no right to agree to the matter. I will discuss with the King of Wei as soon as possible when I go back. Once the King of Wei agrees, I will bring back the people and property immediately. In short, I hope that both of us can cooperate happily.

"This is what I'm looking forward to!"

Yang Yuanqing immediately ordered: "Drift a large ship and send a team of soldiers to escort Mr. Fang back!"...

Fang Xuanzao left, and Yang Yuanqing ordered someone to find Li Jing again. Soon, Li Jing entered the room and asked with a smile: "I heard that someone is coming on the other side of the shore. Is it Wang Shichong's or Li Mi's?"

"It's Li Mi's special envoy."

Yang Yuanqing sighed slightly: "I didn't expect that Li Mi's vision was farther than mine. It can be said that he is the two ends of the rat, but from another angle, he is also judging the situation and making the decision that is most beneficial to him. On the contrary,

, But I didn't expect to win over Li Mi, but I just thought of using Du Fuwei to restrain Li Mi."

Li Jing did not rush to respond to Yang Yuanqing's feelings. He sat down and a tea boy served him tea. Li Jing picked up the tea cup and pondered for a while, and said, "Have the manager considered where Li Mi's benefits? He was like this.

Can you really protect your own interests?”

Yang Yuanqing frowned slightly, "Sir, please continue!"

Li Jing continued: "If I were Li Mi, then my greatest interest is to maintain the status quo. How can I maintain the status quo? It is obviously unrealistic to form an alliance with Wang Shichong to fight against the two great enemies of Sui and Tang dynasties. Then the best way to join the Tang Dynasty to fight against Sui and Tang dynasties is

If I am the two ends of the rat, the Tang army will fail and the Sui army will enter the Central Plains, the next goal will be myself. I believe Li Mi will also think of this problem."

Yang Yuanqing paced back and forth in the room with his hands behind his back. Li Jing's thoughts were very clear. Li Mi was indeed able to protect his interests in the Central Plains by joining Tang and Sui. So why did he still secretly collude with him? Did he not care about the Central Plains?

Yang Yuanqing suddenly had an idea in his mind. He glanced at Li Jing and said slowly: "I was wondering, does Li Mi want to give up the Central Plains and develop towards the south?"

Li Jing lowered his head and thought for a while, and said, "It is indeed possible. Although those who compete for the Central Plains and those who win the Central Plains will win the world, it means that the Central Plains are densely populated and have sufficient military and food sources, but that's not the case now.

After six or seven years of riots, disasters and wars, the population of the Central Plains has gone by six or seven. I am afraid that even a hundred thousand troops will not be able to survive, let alone relying on the hegemony of the Central Plains, if Li Mi wants to build a long-term career, he will develop towards the Southeast Tu.

The best choice.”

"If this is true, Du Fuwei will be in trouble." Yang Yuanqing said with some concern.

"I don't think the general manager has to worry too much. Du Fuwei's jurisdiction over a thousand miles of territory. He can't beat Li Mi and can run west. I think the general manager still needs to focus on the Tang army. This is our real enemy."

Yang Yuanqing nodded, "As the Chief Secretary said!"...

After occupying Yiyang County, the vanguard of the Tang army rested for a day and then marched eastward again. General Yuchi Gong led 5,000 cavalry to march day and night. One day later, the vanguard rushed to Sanyuan City, forty miles southwest of Luoyang.

It is Luoyang Zicheng and also a key military fortress for Luoyang's defense.

During the reign of Yang Guang, there were nearly 8,000 permanent troops in Sanyuan City. Although Wang Shichong had decided to focus on defending Luocheng, he still deployed 4,000 troops in Sanyuan City.

Chi Gong led five thousand elite cavalry to slowly stop several miles away. Looking at the strong Sanyuan City in the distance, Yuchi Gong frowned slightly. He did not bring siege weapons, and the counties along the way were all looking at the wind.

Surrender, now this Sanyuan City is probably the first hard bone he wants to chew.

But the cavalry did not have weapons to attack the city, so it was not easy to take down the castle. Yuchi Gong knew that this city was guarded by Wang Shichong's nephew. He pondered for a long time and whispered a few words to King Zhao Li Xuanba, who followed him to play the vanguard.

Ba smiled proudly, "Of course this is my business!"

He immediately turned around and shouted to the guards, "Come with me!"

Two hundred cavalry turned their horses and followed him to the north. Yuchi Gong also led the cavalry to retreat westward...

Like Li Yuan, Wang Shichong has many brothers and nephews, and the command of the army is never handed over to outsiders. The main military power is to hand over to his nephew Wang Renze, but the other brothers and nephews also control some troops, with the six thousand people in Sanyuan City.

It was led by Wang Shichong's nephew, Wang Jundu, and a general Guo Shiheng was also the deputy general.

On the city wall, Guo Shiheng looked into the West from afar. He had seen countless black spots, but what surprised him was that the black spots had disappeared again. They should be the enemy's vanguard. Have they bypassed Sanyuan City?

"General, could it be them waiting for the main force?" a general whispered.

"It's hard to say. Maybe they didn't bring siege weapons and bypassed Sanyuan Castle."

Guo Shiheng suddenly remembered something again and asked, "What is King Yue doing?"

The general gave a lip and said disdainfully: "Do you still need to ask? What else can he do besides playing with women?"

Guo Shiheng also showed helplessness in his eyes. Among the many brothers and nephews of the emperor, except for Wang Renze who could lead troops to fight and was quite strategic, most of the others were reckless and brave generals, or stupid people. This King of Yue was even more simple-minded.

, a reckless man with developed limbs, is famous for fighting and fighting in Luoyang. Apart from having a few pounds of stupid strength, he doesn't know a lot of words. Even the emperor doesn't value him and sends him to guard this sub-city.

The soldiers were very dissatisfied with bringing two prostitutes from Luoyang City two days ago.

Guo Shiheng felt helpless. When the emperor was the commander, he led his troops to charge, and his opponents had great trust. However, since he ascended the throne and became emperor, his mentality has changed. All the military power was handed over to his nephews. The former generals only

Those who can be a deputy, perhaps those who become emperors will be prepared for their own actions.

Although the King of Yue is not wise and brave, he is not vague about military power. He has to nod his head through anything, which makes Guo Shiheng go to report every time, and is very upset in his heart.

Guo Shiheng had no choice but to say, "You are optimistic about the city, I'll go and discuss it with Your Highness!"

"What are you discussing with me?" A cold voice came from behind.

When Guo Shiheng turned around, he saw King Yue standing behind him, holding a long halberd in his hand. Wang Junduo was a palace guard, tall and fat, wearing a golden helmet and silver armor. Guo Shiheng hurriedly knelt on one knee, "The last general

See Your Highness!”

"Hmph!" Wang Junduo snorted softly, looking very arrogant. He walked to the city wall and looked into the distance, "I heard that the Tang army vanguard has arrived, where is the person?"

"Report to Your Highness, I saw a lot of black spots just now, but now they are gone."

"Black spot?"

Wang Jundu mocked: "Maybe it was a group of crows. General Guo's eyes were blurred and his heart was panicked. He regarded it as the Tang army, and his plants were all soldiers. Wouldn't he just say someone like you?"

Guo Shiheng cursed in his heart, without showing his face, and still said in a deep voice: "It's not a crow, it must be a cavalry, maybe a patrol, not a vanguard."

As soon as he finished speaking, a soldier pointed to the northwest and shouted: "Look, Tang army patrol!"

Everyone looked northwest and saw a Tang army patrol cavalry of about 200 people appearing two miles away. They were calm, some were drawing, some were dismounting to check the soil, they were getting closer and closer,

He stopped a mile away, even got off the horse and drank water and ate dry food. One of them wore a golden helmet, which was particularly conspicuous.
