The twelve Lady's message was fierce and she wanted Li Fengyun to go to Pengcheng, and she wanted to cut off Li Fengyun's head on the neck.

"You want to have an interview?" Li Fengyun sneered and shook his hand, "Now that someone has not even resolved his survival problem, what should I talk to her? Don't believe her, don't pay attention to her, and put her aside."

Immediately, Li Fengyun pointed at Xu Shiji again and smiled happily, "If you can come, you have proved that your strategy has been successful. What I need is to trick you up the mountain?"

"What do you mean by brother?" Xu Shiji was puzzled.

Li Fengyun did not answer, but asked, "What do Zhai Fasi and Brother Shan think about a certain proposal? Are you willing to raise the flag and form a trend of echoing something with something?"

Xu Shiji shook his head, then raised his hand to the sky, "You fell from the sky, without any worries, and Zhai Fasi and Brother Shan are native Henan people. They have too much concern, how can they be as free and easy as Brother A?"

Li Fengyun was very disappointed, "We made a big fuss at the beginning, shocked the Dongdu. If we had not forced Cui to come forward and mediate and try our best to cover it up, Zhai Rang and Shan Xiongxin could still survive until now? Even if they could escape a life at that time, how could their relatives, family, disciples and officials escape? Cui saved them for a while, but they could not save them for a lifetime. Once the political situation in Dongdu suddenly changed, Cui would be unable to protect themselves, so how could they have spare energy to protect them? At that time, the government would pursue and suppress them with all their strength, and settle the old and new accounts. Zhai Rang, Shan Xiongxin and others had no way to go to heaven and no way to enter the earth. How could they not die? They didn't understand such a simple truth? They couldn't see such a clear situation? Are they all blind? When they died, they were still ignorant and dreaming of spring and autumn?"

Xu Shiji knew Li Fengyun's temper and let him scold him angrily and remained silent.

"Brother, you have two strategies. One is to let Zhai Fasi and Brother Shan rebel, but rebellion requires time to prepare and time to raise the flag. It is not to say that rebellion can rebel. Therefore, this strategy cannot save the near fire and will not help you resolve the current crisis. The second is to ask for help from Cui. Now that Cui has agreed to help, the Twelve Lady is rushing to Pengcheng or has arrived in Pengcheng, you should try to contact him as soon as possible, rather than be entangled with Zhai Fasi and Brother Shan rebelling."

"You are wrong." Li Fengyun waved his hand, "On the contrary, the Boling Cui family is about to face the biggest crisis since the reunification of China-Turkey. Since Cui Hongdu's death, Cui Hongsheng, who was far away in Hebei, could not return to the Eastern Capital, which led to his influence in the center rapidly declining. In order to return to the center, Cui Hongsheng had to deliberately find a solution. Indulging all the heroes and generals from Hebei to be rampant in the Jizhou area was one of his strategies. If nothing unexpected happens, in order to ensure the stability of Hebei, the emperor and the center must transfer Cui Hongsheng from Hebei and instead put him on the battlefield of the Eastern Expedition to ease the conflict with the Shandong noble group and win the absolute support of the Shandong noble group on the battlefield of the Eastern Expedition."

"However, this is just a wishful thinking of the emperor and the central reformists. In fact, neither the Guanlong nobles nor the Shandong nobles wanted to see the victory of the Eastern Expedition."

In front of Xu Shiji, Li Fengyun explained in detail his understanding of the current political situation in Zhongtu and the origin of his pessimistic prediction of the Eastern Expedition, and then deduced the irresolved crisis facing Cui.

Xu Shiji went up the mountain, which shows that Cui had some interest in Li Fengyun's proposal. As for whether to help, the key is whether Li Fengyun and Mengshan Rebel Army had sufficient utilization value. If the utilization value was limited, Cui would certainly not cause trouble. So Li Fengyun sent Xu Shisan to release the "bait" and fished Xu Shiji, the "fish" on the mountain. When Xu Shiji went up the mountain, Li Fengyun talked with him in detail. As Cui's secret envoy, Xu Shiji would of course return. Report truthfully. Xu Shiji is Li Fengyun's second "bait", and after this "bait" is released, the Twelve Lady will definitely be "being taken to the hook". Just wait for the Twelve Lady to "being hooked", and it will inevitably form some limited interest "alliance" with Li Fengyun and the Mengshan Rebel Army. This "alliance" can give Li Fengyun the help he wants. Only this kind of help can help the rebel army get rid of the current crisis and grow rapidly.

When Xu Shiji faced Li Fengyun, he really felt absurd feeling of falling into a dream. If the two were not friends in distress and if Li Fengyun had not formed a team in Mengshan, Xu Shiji would not have believed Li Fengyun's shocking words at all, and would have only regarded him as a crazy and a mentally confused charlatan.

"It's going to snow, and the mountains are blocked with heavy snow. The encirclement and suppression of the government army can only be suspended." Li Fengyun said at last, "But the river is frozen. After Zhang Xutuo drove Wang Bo and Changbaishan rebels to Hebei, the army of Qi County will go south, and the number and strength of the encirclement and suppression of the government army will be far beyond ours. Therefore, our time is very limited, at most only two months. If we cannot find foreign aid in these short two months, then after the beginning of spring, the Mengshan rebels will usher in a life-and-death battle."

"Of course, I can't pin my hope of survival on the unattainable behemoth of Cui. I have to save myself, and self-rescue also requires foreign aid. This foreign aid is you and the Wagang brothers." Li Fengyun said seriously, "Now, I need you, but in fact, you need someone even more."

"Wagang?" Xu Shiji was stunned for a moment, then woke up, "That place is called Wating."

"What's the difference?" Li Fengyun joked, "Someone rebelled and occupied the mountain and became king, so of course it was called Wagang."

Xu Shiji was unintentionally arguing. Not only was he dizzy, but he was also anxious and wanted to fly to Pengcheng. He couldn't stay here. Li Fengyun was a complete madman, and this madman was torturing him madly. He felt that he was about to be crazy and was about to collapse.

Before dusk, Xu Shiji said goodbye and left, coming and going in a hurry.

Cui Deben was very surprised at the sudden arrival of the Twelve Lady of the Cui family, but when he learned from Cui Jiu that Cui Hongsheng was going to Zhuo County and even returned to the Wei Mansion to lead the eastward expedition, he was not surprised, but very melancholy.

In his opinion, the Eastern Expedition is to wading into muddy waters, and it is best not to mix them up. Especially now the conflict between the Guanlong people and the Shandong people is becoming increasingly fierce. Cui Hongsheng, as the leader of the Shandong aristocratic group, must be the target of the Guanlong people. Most of the commanders in the Guardian army are Guanlong people. If they join forces to plot against Cui Hongsheng on the battlefield, Cui Hongsheng will lose his skin even if he does not die. The Eastern Expedition is a battle of victory, and there are millions of heroes, and there are many generals. After the merits are distributed, how much advantage can Cui Hongsheng take? It is better not to have that little credit. But the problem is that when the emperor issued an order, Cui Hongsheng must not refuse, and the mystery of this is not something that can be understood and thoroughly.

What did the Twelve Lady come to Pengcheng at this moment? It was obviously on the order of Cui Hongsheng to convey a message to Cui Deben in order to make a plan for the possible future changes.

Cui Hongsheng stood high and saw far, and his understanding of the situation in China-Turkey was extraordinary. He was pessimistic about the future situation in China-Turkey. Regardless of the victory or defeat of the Eastern Expedition, sharp contradictions within the ruling class caused by reform will erupt. If the Eastern Expedition wins, the emperor and the reformists will speed up the reform process, and the opposing sides will definitely fight; if the Eastern Expedition loses, the authority of the Emperor and the Central Committee will be damaged, and the conservative forces will inevitably counterattack the "reform", and both sides will still fight.

In other words, the domestic situation may fall into chaos, and what is even more serious is that after more than ten years of rest and recuperation, the vitality of the *** people in the desert gradually recovered. After conquering Tiel and other desert captives and re-establishing the major alliance of the captives, Shibi Khan began to stare at Zhongtu. The situation in the north and south is becoming increasingly tense, and the war between the north and the south is likely to break out at any time. In this situation of internal and external difficulties, once Zhongtu is in a crisis of internal and external attacks, the foundation of the country will inevitably be shaken, and the great cause of unification will inevitably be in danger of collapse.

To this end, Cui must make arrangements in advance, and the primary principle of arrangements in advance is to use all means to try every means to control the development of the situation. Taking a step back, even if you cannot control the situation, you must adapt to the situation and must not go against the current and even if the boat is overturned.

Cui Hongsheng has absolute authority in the Choi clan of Boling, especially since Cui Hongdu passed away. Cui Deben certainly would not question Cui Hongsheng's inference, but after listening carefully to the twelve ladies, he immediately raised a question, "When will the most intense conflict break out in Middle-earth? Two years? Three years? Or more?"

The Twelve Lady replied, "My despair, if the domestic situation continues to be turbulent during the Eastern Expedition, and the war between the North and the South broke out in the northern border, and Zhongtu fell into the dilemma of being attacked from both sides, the situation would inevitably take a sharp turn."

In this way, it will not be too long before all the conflicts in China and Turkey will break out. According to Cui Hongsheng's prediction, it should be within the next two or three years.

Choi Deben asked again, "Which side is Choi standing on?"

"At present, Shandong people and Guanlong people fight to the death. The emperor sits on the mountain to watch the tiger fight. Once both losers are injured, the emperor will be able to benefit. But according to the master's prediction, the emperor has a whim. Shandong people and Guanlong people are both injured, which will inevitably seriously endanger the safety of the country. By then, even if the emperor and fishermen benefit, the foundation of the country has been shaken, and in fact it has evolved into both losers and losses. Chaos is coming, and there will be no winner at all."

Cui Deben understood that Cui Hongsheng was extremely pessimistic about the deduction of the future. Therefore, the main purpose of Cui's layout is to ensure strength and to secretly expand its strength. Only in this way can the Middle Earth fall into a critical moment, and ensure that Cui always stands in the storm and will not be wiped out in the bloody storm.

"Where is the goal of Xuzhou's layout?" This is the issue that Cui Deben is most concerned about, and it is closely related to his personal interests.

"Mengshan."

Mengshan Cui Deben was a little surprised. After thinking for a moment, he immediately realized that the rampant thieves in Hebei was directly related to Cui Hongsheng's indulgence. Now he also had to "conduct according to the law" and tolerate Xuzhou thieves in chaos in Xuzhou, Qilu and even the entire river.

The Cui family and all the wealthy families in Zhongtu could no longer tolerate the overall decline of the aristocratic families caused by the unification of Zhongtu. If it is not stopped, it can be foreseeable that in the future, there will be no place for wealthy families to live in China, and the politics of the aristocratic families will no longer exist. For this reason, the aristocratic groups opposed reform and centralization, and the wealthy families had to stand up and resist at the moment of life and death. The most intense and violent confrontation would bring the worst consequences, so the Cui family's strategy was to boil the frogs in warm water. Since the top-down method could not stop reform, then use the rebellion that blooms everywhere to disrupt the situation, and then force the reform to stop, kill the reform, and bury the reform.
