Kuaiji, Juzhang County Pier
Penglai Restaurant
Xie Zhan stood in the box with a serious look on his face, looking at the blue waves thousands of miles away. Unfortunately, this beautiful scenery could not make him feel happy.
He already knew about Zhuya Island, and when he looked back at the performance of Pingzhou's expeditionary army, various signs showed that Pingzhou had never believed in their covenant, but was on guard against him at every turn.
"It's a pity that the three million silver and the timber were given before." Jiang Boya said.
Xie Nan felt extremely distressed when he thought of this. It was like a meat bun beating a dog. At the same time, they also realized Lu Songli's cunningness again. They swallowed the bait, but failed to do anything.
If Lu Songli knew that they thought this way, he would definitely say that in fact, Pingzhou didn't miss much of this money, and it was all made by the friendly forces.
At this time, the subordinate came to report, "Grand Governor, the guests have arrived."
Wang Juntao is here? Xie Zhan withdrew his gaze and led people to the next door. It doesn't matter if Pingzhou doesn't take the bait, he still has a backup plan.
Wang Juntao didn't know the purpose of Xie Zhan inviting him here, but Xie Zhan was now the commander-in-chief of Dali's army. He couldn't bear to offend the other party's face, so he came down with his subordinates.
But he knows that there is no such thing as a good party. Therefore, he braced himself to deal with it.
After some pleasantries between the two parties, Xie Zhan revealed his purpose.
With the support of the emperor, Xie Zhan wanted to control the spare ships of Caobang and cut off the supplies of the Pingzhou army led by Qin Zhao.
His purpose was simple. If Pingzhou didn't want to get involved, he would drag them into the situation.
The army sent out by Pingzhou, without supplies, is like a turtle in a urn, waiting to be eaten.
"I hope that Caobang will cooperate with the imperial court's campaign to suppress bandits and suspend all shipping for a month."
Of course Wang Juntao couldn't accept it.
"Thank you, Commander-in-Chief, Caobang can't fulfill your request. Many of Caobang's sales have already been decided, and many customers are waiting for us, Caobang, to pick up and deliver the goods on time."
If the operation is suspended for a month, not to mention the money lost during this month, Caobang's reputation will be seriously damaged.
Xie Nan said at this time, "Brother Wang, the imperial court doesn't care about your Cao Gang's secret cooperation with Pingzhou before. You should know better now."
Years of credibility were about to be destroyed. Wang Juntao looked ugly, but he still wanted to work hard.
"The imperial court wants to suppress bandits, and our Cao Gang will definitely cooperate. I guarantee that our Cao Gang will not do business in Pingzhou." Wang Juntao expressed his position.
Xie Zhan knew that Caobang and Pingzhou cooperated closely. Such a statement was not enough, and he did not want Pingzhou to take advantage of any loopholes.
So Xie Zhan said, "Master Wang, the court has no choice but to do this. The Pingzhou rebels are cunning and we have to guard against them. I hope Master Wang can be considerate."
Wang Juntao saw that the imperial court was determined to do this, regardless of the life and death of the Cao Gang.
He finally said, "Thank you, Governor, is there really no other way?"
"If so, I don't want to embarrass Gang Leader Wang."
The court has to do this, right? The anger in Wang Juntao's heart had reached its peak at this time, but he tried his best to control it, "Okay, as the leader of the Cao Gang, I agree, as you wish!"
With that said, Wang Juntao stood up and walked out, but was stopped unexpectedly.
Wang Juntao looked at Xie Zhan and said, "Grand Governor Xie, what do you mean?"
"How about Gang Leader Wang temporarily staying in Juzhang for this month?"
Wang Juntao looked extremely ugly. Xie Zhan clearly wanted to put him under house arrest.
"Thank you, Commander-in-Chief, is this how you treat guests?"
"Gang leader Wang, this is the emperor's order, everything is for the court." Xie Zhan passed the blame to the emperor.
"Okay, I've got someone to teach me."
Xie Zhan naturally saw Wang Juntao's dissatisfaction, but everything was done to ensure that his plan could be implemented.
The imperial army attacked Donghai with overwhelming force. Now the two counties of Xin'an County and the entire Kuaiji have been captured. He will not allow his plan to go wrong!
After Wang Juntao and his party were invited out, his subordinates hurried to the restaurant with a letter.
"The Governor is in trouble, Yanmendai County has been captured, and the entire Sun family's army has been wiped out."
What? Xie Zhan took the letter and read it at a glance. After reading it, he frowned and murmured, "Is it still too late?"
"Grand Governor, what happened?" Jiang Boya asked.
Xie Zhan gave him the letter, and after Jiang Boya took a look at it, he realized that the entire Sun army had been wiped out, Yanmen was captured by Xianbei, and Daijun was captured by Pingzhou.
The two looked at each other, and the worst happened.
They originally expected that the best scenario would be that Yang Yingqin would lead the army heading north to support the Sun Army in time, and it would not matter even if they fell into a protracted war with Xianbei. He and Dong Guowei, Wei Kuang and Xuzhou garrison encircled and suppressed the King of Jin, Qin Zhao and others.
Once the war in the East China Sea is over, there will be more troops and horses to support Pingzhou.
Now, plans can't keep up with the changes.
"Grand Governor, what should we do now?"
Xie Zhan thought for a long time and said, "Act as planned. Yang Yingqin led [-] to [-] soldiers to defend Xinxing, which should be able to withstand it for a while. The most important thing is that Pingzhou picked Xianbei's peaches, and Xianbei will not give up. Xianbei is peaceful Zhouzhou will definitely have a fight. Let’s take advantage of this time to complete our goal as soon as possible!”
"Yes!"
As Xie Zhan expected, Xianbei and Hepingzhou started fighting in Daijun. But the battle ended surprisingly quickly.
General Xianbei attacked Daijun the day after Pingzhou took over. They had only one idea, to see if they could capture Daijun while Pingzhou had just taken over.
The Pingzhou soldiers guarding the city obeyed the orders from their superiors and directly hung a group of Fuyu people on the city wall.
The soldiers were hanging and thinking.
"You want to attack the city, right? Attack it!"
"Anyway, it's you barbarians who are hanging on it. If you accidentally beat it to death or fell down, it would have grown so big."
After the Xianbei soldiers recognized that the people hanging on the city wall were their clansmen, they all looked at each other. How could they attack the city? !
"Why did Pingzhou come up with such sinister ideas?" Tuoba Yu gritted his teeth.
"Duan is so heartless, despicable, shameless and obscene!"
