Governor please stay

He should be stronger, I don't know if there will be a chance to make up for it later!

"Now that Wei sent people here, they must have malicious intentions. Guanzhong is barren and has been drought for years, and urgently needs food and grass from Hanzhong. It is they who ask me, not I ask them.

Compared with their plight, the conflict between me and my father is really nothing. "

Xiao Yuanzhao stood up and paced in the bedroom. Under the light of the oil lamp, his shadow was reflected on the wall, distorted by the flickering candlelight, like a ghost.

"Although those people in Wei State have bad intentions, if they are used as bargaining chips, they can't suppress the court and ask for more benefits! If the court doesn't give benefits, then I will send people from Guanzhong to Hanzhong! The court will definitely Will compromise. There's no question about that."

The more Xiao Yuanzhao thought about it, the more feasible it became, and his heart gradually became hotter.

In a crisis, in a crisis, there is an opportunity. He suddenly realized that he is now a rare commodity to live in!

"As for the Guanzhong side, they can be allowed to send some merchant teams to Hanzhong, and even sell grain to Guanzhong, but the troops are not allowed to enter and leave Hanzhong.

If He Bayue in Guanzhong wants to get rough, I can just lead the soldiers and horses of the imperial court to garrison Nanzheng. When the time comes, the fish will die and the net will be broken, and He Bayue will get nothing!

I can't believe they would be violent! "

Although Xiao Yuanzhao knew that He Bayue's soldiers and horses were definitely on their way, he felt that as long as he had an agreement with Changsun Jian, the other party would obediently retreat.

"As for my father, I must sternly reject his sending troops to invade the border. The imperial court can send a troop to station in Mianyang to prevent the soldiers from Shu from going north to Hanzhong."

"In this way, the three parties compete and balance each other, so I can benefit from it and seek benefits from all parties, so I can sit back and relax!"

At this moment, Xiao Yuanzhao was rubbing his hands together with excitement, just like some poor students in Liu Yishou's previous life who were facing the college entrance examination when they were young.

After hearing about going to university, I was very interested in thinking about whether it would be better to go to Tsinghua University or Peking University in the future.

It wasn't until the end that I realized that I was thinking too much.

Although Xiao Yuanzhao looks ordinary, she thinks beautifully.

Little did they know that the elephants fought and the grass suffered.If the court of the Liang Kingdom, the Western Wei Dynasty, and Xiao Ji fought viciously in Hanzhong, they would only turn Hanzhong into a piece of scorched earth and the people would be in dire straits.

When the time comes, don't say it's a big dream, Xiao Yuanzhao can save his life, thanks to God's blessing!

It's a pity that the current Xiao Yuanzhao, limited by his shallow life experience, can't feel the danger of this matter.He also imagined that he could rely on this wave of political manipulation in the future to gain a foothold in Hanzhong.

……

People count as tigers, and tigers count as people.

What Xiao Yuanzhao didn't expect was that when he was dreaming and thinking of the court and He Bayue's people as fools, a certain old coin in Nanzheng City who pretended to be incompetent and lustful was also plotting against him.

On the night when Changsun Jian met Xiao Yuanzhao, Wang Wei was squinting his eyes in the study in a luxurious courtyard in Nanzheng City, listening to Dai Zigao's report of the inquired news.Can't help but nod for a while.

"There are finally people from Guanzhong. I'm really afraid that they won't come."

Wang Wei tapped the back of the other hand with his index finger and said as if muttering to himself.After listening to Dai Zigao's report, Xiao Yuanzhao met and discussed with people from the Western Wei Dynasty for a long time, and he put his worry back into his stomach.

If He Bayue from Guanzhong hadn't sent troops over, Liu Yishou's play would have been really difficult to sing. No matter how you look at it, it looks like the imperial court wants to cut down the vassals and force the vassals to submit.Only when Guanzhong actually sent troops, Liu Yishou's response could keep everyone's mouths shut.

This is called being famous!

"Return to Wang Shizhong, it is true. I heard that this person is called Changsun Jian, and he is well-known in Guanzhong."

Dai Zigao said cautiously, to be honest, it was not easy for him to find out these things.

Wang Wei asked Dai Zigao to keep an eye on Xiao Yuanzhao's movements, while he ate, drank and had fun in the open all day long, as if he didn't care about government affairs at all, so everyone relaxed their vigilance.

This little scheme was used to paralyze Xiao Yuanzhao.

Probably the acting was so similar that Xiao Yuanzhao made a misjudgment, thinking that the people sent by the court were nothing more than that.

"Have you found out where you live?"

Wang Wei asked casually, with a calm tone, but with irresistibility.

"I've already inquired clearly, are you going to bring people here? This subordinate will do it now."

Dai Zigao nodded politely and said.

"Well, bring someone to me, the sooner the better, but don't disturb Xiao Yuanzhao."

Wang Wei looked very calm, and he didn't see the arrogance when he went door-to-door to search for beauties.

Just as Dai Zigao was about to turn around, Wang Wei stopped him and reminded him: "The other party has just arrived in Nanzheng today, so he must be extremely wary. It won't be too late to arrest him after he has settled with Xiao Yuanzhao. You can arrange it calmly, Make sure to hit it with one hit!"

"Wang Shizhong, why don't you kill this person with one knife, that's so simple."

Dai Zigao asked in bewilderment.

When Wang Wei heard this, he wanted to beat the elm head to death with a stick.If Changsun Jian is really slaughtered, then Xiao Yuanzhao will definitely insist that he doesn't know this person at all. If it really comes to that point, how will he deal with this guy?

One careless move, the whole game is lost, this is what we are talking about.

Changsun Jian must have to identify Xiao Yuanzhao face to face in order to hold this so-called "King of Hanzhong" in his hands!The witnesses are all dead, so let's talk about it!

This is such a simple truth.

The evidence is conclusive, Xiao Yuanzhao secretly colluded with the enemy country, how big a crime is this?It's exciting to think about!

With a little manipulation, Xiao Yuanzhao can be taken down and the title of King of Hanzhong can be revoked.

Or use this as a threat to flatten and round Xiao Yuanzhao in the future, just depending on what Liu Yishou wants?

"Do as I say, don't hurt people's lives. A dead person from Guanzhong can't prove anything and means nothing to us!"

Wang Wei scolded with displeasure.

"Understood, I understand, this subordinate will send someone to watch over it, it must be done, it must be done."

Dai Zigao stepped back as if he had been pardoned, not daring to stay in front of Wang Wei any longer.

After he left, Wang Wei sighed to himself: "The envoys are here, it seems that those people in Guanzhong are about to start fighting."

After setting off, Wang Wei once received a letter from Liu Yishou, telling him that although this war is very important to everyone, it is not a life-and-death battle.

Coupled with the narrow area of ​​Hanzhong, it is difficult to deploy troops, and the transportation of grain roads is not smooth.So no matter whether it is Xiao Ji, He Bayue, or even Liang Guo's court, there must be elite soldiers fighting each other!

Large-scale battles are definitely impossible, and logistical supplies are not allowed. However, small-scale battles are indispensable, and even the battles may be fierce, so there should be no chances.

So the scene of competing for Hanzhong this time will be very weird.

Xiao Yuanzhao, who is in control of the local food and supplies, has almost no force that can be controlled. All the troops are almost decorations and cannot defend anyone. It is estimated that these troops will not even have much will to resist.

Because these people were Xiao Ji's army not long ago, they were just bought by Xiao Yuanzhao, and temporarily obeyed his orders, how capable and dedicated can they be expected to be?

But the other three parties, whether it is Li Bi from Guanzhong, Yang Zhong sent by the court, or even Xiao Ji stationed in Jiange, all have elite soldiers under their command, and the most capable fighters have been brought out!

No matter which of these three parties it is, it is very difficult to supply them!It is impossible to have many soldiers and horses in hand.

So to a certain extent, whoever can occupy Hanzhong's supplies will have a greater chance of winning!Of course, excluding these factors, Liu Yishou has the greatest chance of winning in theory, because the cost of transporting grain through the Hanshui Corridor is the lowest.

In other words, Xiao Yuanzhao, the so-called "King of Hanzhong", may not be very important, because he actually has no army in his hands, and it is exactly the same if he is on the battlefield without him.

But Xiao Yuanzhao can also be very important!Whichever army receives local supplies from Hanzhong can greatly increase the probability of fault tolerance.And the army without local supplies in Hanzhong will almost go home after a defeat.

Before even retreating to the starting point, the army collapsed on its own due to lack of food.

This situation made Wang Wei realize that his role is very important, and he is not just a front stand.

If Liu Yishou sent any random cat or dog to Hanzhong, then the task would be considered as completed if this person could hold Xiao Yuanzhao down.But who is Wang Wei?He is a close confidant of Liu Yishou, if he comes here, he can only hold Xiao Yuanzhao steady, will he be able to show his abilities?

What Wang Wei wants is obviously far more than that.

Some time ago, he played himself as a drunkard, a lazy and hardworking person, isn't it just to paralyze Xiao Yuanzhao?His concubine is Yuan Mingyue, what kind of woman is this, has Wang Weineng never seen a beautiful woman?Did he search for beauties all over the city in Nanzheng?

Everything is acting, and it's all for Xiao Yuanzhao and his subordinates to watch!Without Wang Wei acting in the open, how could Dai Zigao lead people to investigate Xiao Yuanzhao's affairs secretly without being noticed?

……

In Chenggu County to the east of Nanzheng, after Yang Zhong led his troops to settle here, he was also restless all day long, feeling inappropriate no matter what.

The location here is really important. Chenggu County guards the exit of the Hanjiang Corridor, and it is the first stop for water and land transportation into Hanzhong.But no matter how important this place is, the purpose of Yang Zhong's trip is not to stay here.

Liu Yishou's reply letter has not yet been sent, and their current behavior is essentially disobedience to military orders. If they really lose on the battlefield later, Liu Yishou's board will definitely be beaten.

Yang Zhong asked Duan Shao how to deal with it, and Duan Shao had only one suggestion: send scouts to go deep into the Bao ramp, and closely monitor whether there are any troops coming through the Bao ramp towards Hanzhong, and if there are any, just report back quickly.

The road from Guanzhong to Hanzhong is not easy, so the speed of the scouts is much faster than that of the army. In this way, the defending side can actually get a certain amount of warning time.

This suggestion can't be said to be bad, but what if He Bayue's people don't take the praise ramp?

Duan Shao's answer to this question is: If you take Chen Cang Road, it is very close to the exit of Shu, and the person who should be anxious should be Xiao Ji.So there is no need to control the situation in Chencang Road at all, as long as you can accurately and predict in advance whether the soldiers and horses in Guanzhong will go to Baoxie Road to raid Nanzheng!

Hearing this, Yang Zhong took it for granted.

On this day, scouts came to report that somewhere in Baoxie Road, they found traces of Wei Jun, with a number of about a thousand people and no horses.Upon hearing the news, Yang Zhong immediately called Duan Shao to discuss the dispatch of troops.

They have been in Tunza in Chenggu County for many days, isn't this the day they have been waiting for?Now that we have found the traces of Wei Jun, ambushing at the exit of the plank road, it is the best policy to go down in a battle!

Yang Zhong even thought about how to deal with this battle.

Unexpectedly, when Duan Shao learned about this, he quietly pulled Yang Zhong to a secluded place where no one was around, and the two plotted how to deal with the soldiers of the Western Wei Dynasty.

"General Yang, you are as good as your name says, and you talk about loyalty and bravery, but there is a sentence below, I don't know if it should be said or not."

Duan Shao's complexion tightened, and he said softly.

"Filial piety first, but it's okay to talk."

Yang Zhong nodded slightly and said, he knew that the other party would say some taboo words.

"It's true that General Yang is loyal, and I admire him very much. But loyalty is also about the object. To put it bluntly, General Yang is loyal to the King of Wu, not the court of Liang, let alone a feudal lord.

Some things may be unfavorable to the court, but they are beneficial to King Wu. How should General Yang choose such things?

The person who promoted General Yang was King Wu, not the court of Liang Kingdom! "

Duan Shao said calmly.

"You mean..."

Yang Zhong pondered for a moment, and understood what Duan Shao wanted to say.

"Yes, for the imperial court, it is good for Xiao Yuanzhao to be alive. But if he unfortunately dies in the hands of Wei Jun, although King Wu will mourn deeply, I am afraid that he will secretly rejoice in his heart. Fortunately, Xiao Yuanzhao died in the congratulations In the hands of Ba Yue? In this way, King Wu will not have to worry about what to do with them in the future.

Taking ten thousand steps back, if Xiao Yuanzhao survived and defected to Wei State, would the King of Wu be able to take back Hanzhong justifiably?

Therefore, I believe that instead of going to fight the vigorous Wei army now, there will be heavy casualties, and we have to compromise with Xiao Yuanzhao in the end.It is better to let the Wei army attack Nanzheng.

Wei Jun has few soldiers, so there is no such thing as defending Nanzheng.When they relax their vigilance after entering the city, and even plunder wantonly, it is time for us to send troops to fight.

King Wu certainly has follow-up reinforcements, but if General Yang can get everything done with these 500 people, he will be famous in the whole army, and King Wu will take a look at him, and he will be appointed as a marquis and prime minister. "

After hearing these words, Yang Zhong nodded slightly.Of course he knew that Duan Shao had selfish intentions, but he also thought the other party was right.

"I'll send someone to Nanzheng to inform Wang Shizhong (Wang Wei). If he agrees, the matter will not be difficult."

Yang Zhong said in a deep voice.

He kept an eye out, many things are just like doing finances, one person is private and the other is public.Tell Wang Wei about this, and the latter will tell Liu Yishou after the war.

If he wins, Yang Zhong doesn't mind Wang Wei sharing some of the credit.If you accidentally screw up, someone will endorse and stand up to prove that what you do is out of "public interest".

"So good."

Duan Shao cupped his hands and bowed to Yang Zhong.He knew that more than half of his plan for this battle had been successful, and the rest would depend on whether the five hundred elites under Yang Zhong's command were tough or not.

That is not something that his "staff officer" can decide.

Chapter 649

In the study of the "King of Hanzhong" mansion, Changsun Jian stared at Xiao Yuanzhao dumbfounded, completely unable to believe that the conditions the other party just proposed were words that a sensible person should say.

Support the sale of surplus grain to Guanzhong, support business contacts, and propose to exchange grain for salt in Guanzhong, etc.There is no mention of taking refuge at all, asking the Western Wei Dynasty to send troops into Hanzhong and the like.

This is the condition that Xiao Yuanzhao offered to He Bayue!

I even took off my pants, so you just show me this?

Changsun Jian had no idea what Xiao Yuanzhao wanted to do.

Call him stupid, this guy also knows that Hanzhong is likely to be blocked by Xiao Ji's economy in Shu, and the "Bayan" produced in Shu can't be eaten in Hanzhong, so it must get salt from Guanzhong.Otherwise, if you eat without salt, you will be sleepy.

Hanzhong has eaten Bayan since ancient times for hundreds of years, starting from the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period.If Xiao Ji thought of this and blocked Hanzhong for a while, it would probably be enough for Xiao Yuanzhao to drink a pot.

Logically speaking, this guy shouldn't be an idiot, why would he say such childish things?

"What you said just now, is your highness joking?"

Changsun Jian asked with a cold face, his tone was much more serious than before.

"Yes, this is my answer, and it will not change."
