If all the Guanlong people wanted to take this opportunity to give a fatal blow to the Zheng family of Xingyang, whether it was the Wei family of Guanzhong who was openly aligned with him or the Yang family of Hongnong who had secretly had a tacit understanding with him, the actual purpose was to attack the Zheng family of Xingyang. The Wagang people did not have more choices. From the overall interests of the Henan people, the Wagang people naturally had to rush to the front and do their best to counter the Guanlong people. Therefore, Zhai Hong strongly advocated the alliance with Li Fengyun and attack Wei Yunqi, which was completely in line with the interests of Henan people and the Zheng family of Xingyang. It also forced Xu Shiyi and other Wagang brothers who had different opinions to accept Zhai Rang's final decision and prepare to lose all their lives in advance.

Zhai Rang secretly told Xu Shiyi that the Wagang army was going south to attack Wei Yunqi. Regardless of the outcome of this battle, the Wagang army would openly raise the flag to rebel. The Wagang people rebelled directly and threatened the security of Dongjun and Tongji Canal. It also had a serious impact on the fearful and uneasy Henan nobles and tyrants. The bad impact caused by this will inevitably worsen the situation in Henan, and various contradictions and conflicts will become more intense. It is not difficult to foresee that Dugu Cheng, the prefect of Dongjun, will inevitably join the Dongjun Zhu Yingyang to encircle and suppress the Wagang army. The Wagang army is weak and difficult to resist, so it can only join the rebel alliance to survive and develop. For this reason, Zhai Rang solemnly warned Xu Shiyi that after the Wagang army openly raised the flag to rebel, it is necessary to protect the Xu family. As long as the Xu family is safe and sound, the Wagang people can leave a last way out.

Zhai Rang sent Wang Ruxin again and quickly went south to contact Li Fengyun. At the same time, various units of the Wagang Army entered the former Yellow River from different lurking locations, hid in the day and walked at night, and quietly approached the Jishui River.

Li Fengyun's army had advanced to the south bank of the Ji River and made an attack on the river.

Wei Yunqi on the north bank of the Ji River was calm and ready to wait. However, because the time was too short, the army was being formed. Some of the village clan regiments, which had a long distance, had not yet arrived at the assembly point. The combat effectiveness of the official army had not yet been formed. It was just a bluff. If we really wanted to fight, Wei Yunqi did not have much chance of winning.

At dusk, Wei Yunqi and several subordinates, under the protection of a team of elite guards, rode on the river embankment to check the military situation on the other side. After a round trip, Wei Yunqi stopped, frowned, and looked very serious. Suddenly, he looked at Yang Qian beside him and asked in a low voice, "Can the white-haired thief cross the river to attack?

Yang Qian looked at the flag flying over the enemy camp on the south bank, hesitating and silent.

Will the white-haired thieves cross the river to attack? Yang Qian has no answer. So far, Wei Yunqi has not completed the formation of the army to suppress the rebellion, but the rural clans and clans who came from all over the country were armed with military training, with a large number of people and sufficient weapons. If you wait for the work and defend it with danger, Wei Yunqi should be sure to block the rebels on the south bank of the Ji River. Take a step back and say that even if the rebels successfully cross the river, the price they paid must be very heavy. Will the rebels who suffered heavy losses still have the strength to continue fighting after crossing the river? Are the white-haired thieves not afraid that Wei Yunqi set up a trap on the north bank of the Ji River, and aren't afraid that the garrison troops who guarded the Tianqiu Pass ambushed on the north bank and caught him off guard?

"If the white-haired thief is an extraordinary person, and the rebel alliance is just a tool for him to conspire to change the political situation of the Eastern Capital, then the white-haired thief must launch an attack and attack Ming Gong at all costs." Yang Qian calmly analyzed, "If the white-haired thief defeated Ming Gong in the shortest time, then what will change will not only the political situation of the Eastern Capital, but also the victory or defeat of the Expedition Force on the battlefield of the Eastern Capital, and the victory or defeat of the Eastern Capital will directly affect the future destiny of Middle-earth."

Yang Qian bluntly reminded Wei Yunqi that the white-haired thief came to kill you, so you must not underestimate the enemy, do not be lucky, and be prepared to fight with all your might.

If the battlefield in Tongjiqu is a game of chess, the white-haired thief and his army are chess pieces, and the chess player is the shadow force behind the white-haired thief. With Wei Yunqi's identity, status and power, he should be the chess player of this game. Since he is a chess player, Wei Yunqi certainly knows the purpose of the white-haired thief going north to attack, and of course he knows that the white-haired thief must cross the river to attack. Therefore, Wei Yunqi tried Yang Qian so bluntly, for only one reason. He did not believe Yang Qian. He needed the royal political forces represented by Yang Qian to give him a promise. At this critical moment, you cannot stab me in the black knife in the back.

However, Yang Qian did not make the promise he was satisfied with as Wei Yunqi wished.

In the past few months, the royal family has lost two pillars and two central core positions, and its voice in the central decision-making level has been weakened unprecedentedly. The royal family is facing an unprecedented crisis. There are no respected masters inside, and there are a group of political enemies who are eyeing them outside. At this moment, as the best of the royal family, Yang Gongren and Yang Qing, the Duke of Guanguo who are close to the emperor and closest to the center, how could they publicly intervene in the dispute over the imperial throne at the most critical moment of the political situation in Zhongtu? Openly stand on the opposite side of the emperor? Their cooperation with the local nobles of Guanlong and the nobles of the surname Lu was purely to protect the emperor, protect the King of Qi, Yang Nan and the Yang family's national destiny. Specifically, on the battlefield of Tongjiqu, it is to do its best to ensure the smooth flow of transportation channels, rather than helping the nobles of other surnames provoke internal struggles within the royal family and ignore the safety of the country.

This is the bottom line of the royal family. Anyone or thing that touches this bottom line is intolerable by the royal family. Yang Qian's meaning is very straightforward. If you try your best to investigate the chaos, King Yang Qing of Xun will provide money and food. On the contrary, if you deliberately worsen the situation in Tongji Canal in order to make a fuss in order to make a fortune in order to make him leave the capital to suppress the thieves, and even maliciously cut off the Tongji Canal, then Yang Qing will mercilessly put a black knife behind him.

Wei Yunqi was silent for a long time, sighed softly, and said in a pun, "This is Henan..."

Yang Qian understood it carefully. Wei Yunqi was worried about the Zheng family in Xingyang. In fact, Wei Yunqi personally went to Tongji Canal to investigate the chaos, because he was worried that the Zheng family in Xingyang would destroy their strategy of using the chaos in Henan to provoke the dispute over the imperial rule.

Yang Qian did not speak, and he was also worried or even panic. Zheng is a super wealthy family in Zhongtu, a beast from the prehistoric world. Its endurance at a certain moment does not mean that it is heading for Ai Luo, but indicates a new round of explosion. If Zheng is about to explode and is about to open its fangs and swallow it bloodily, who will be the object of devouring? The answer is very clear.

Yang Qian glanced at Wei Yunqian quietly. Since Wei sent you to Henan to fight the Zheng family in Xingyang, of course he was ready. Yang Qian suddenly looked forward to what means will Wei use to fight against the Henan people's four sides?

Yang Qian's silence allowed Wei Yunqi to know the answer. Although this answer was in his expectation, he was still very disappointed after being confirmed. The royal family had just suffered a heavy blow, and provoking a dispute over the imperial rule at this time was indeed not conducive to the royal family's recovery. It is inevitable that Yang Gongren and Yang Qing be cautious and careful, but this attitude of the royal family was very unfavorable to the King of Qi's fight for the position of crown prince.

In the evening, Wei Yunqi and Wei Baoluan were having tea and chewing, while talking in a low voice. Wei Yunqi told Wei Baoluan a few simple answers from Yang Qian, and his words revealed concerns about the future situation.

"Is this game difficult to play?" Wei Baoluan sighed, "It is good to use the trick, but once you raise a tiger, it may be more than worth the effort."

Wei Yunqi sneered, "Can Henan people beat Henan people?"

"No." Wei Baoluan said without thinking, "But the key is that the opponent deliberately made a plan and was just using tricks, but the target of killing became King Qi and us."

"How can King Xun not see it? Although Duke Ding You was at home, he sent his heirs to the battlefield of Tongjiqu in person. This is enough to show the attitude of the royal family." Wei Yunqi said, "The royal family wants to protect the King of Qi and protect this future crown prince. Therefore, as long as we make the game, the royal family will eventually board our ship and work hand in hand with us."

Wei Baoluan pondered silently, and the hesitation in his eyes showed that he was very suspicious of Wei Yunqi's arrogant confidence. Everyone knows that the game was made and the trap was dug, but how could the opponent be tied up and let others slaughter it.

"Since this battle of Jishui is a sure defeat, why should we fight?" Wei Baoluan hesitated for a long time and raised objections, "Since this is a situation set by the opponent, why don't we use the tricks to break the situation in Henan to stabilize the situation in Henan and give the King of Qi a sufficient time to leave Beijing for July to suppress the rebellion?"

"What are you worried about?" Wei Yunqi smiled, "Worry that a certain person will be defeated by the Eastern Capital? Worry that Wei will lose another person after defeating you?" Wei Yunqi shook his hand and curled his lips disdainfully, "You have been worried that this battle will not only be defeated, but also be defeated. Only by defeating a great defeat can the true face of the rebels be completely exposed, and the Henan people led by the Zheng family of Xingyang and the Heluo nobles led by the Yang family of Hongnong, will use the rebels to break the Tongji Canal to destroy the Eastern Expedition to the world."

Wei Baoluan's expression changed slightly, and he was secretly surprised. No wonder Wei Yunqi came in person. It turned out that he wanted to use his identity as the deputy chief of the Censorate and his power to picket the Tongjiqu Rebellion directly to the emperor and the central government. To put it bluntly, he came to Henan not to suppress the rebellion and suppress the bandits and stabilize the situation in Henan, but to deliberately worsen the situation in Henan with one defeat after another, and to anger the emperor and the central government with the reality that was so real that it could no longer be real, and then win greater support and more troops for King Yang Nan of Qi to go out of Beijing to suppress the rebellion.

"The war needs to be fought, and it also needs to be fought continuously. Only in this way can the strength of the Henan people continue to be consumed." Wei Yunqi continued, "The weaker the strength of the Henan people, the more we divide the interests of Henan, and the greater the attack and containment of the Zheng family. It can be foreseen that the nightmare of the Henan people is coming soon, and some of them will die at the hands of the white-haired thief, while the other one will die under a certain knife because of the defeat. The white-haired thief won consecutive battles, and their strength increased sharply, and their fame soared.

, It is indeed fattened. Such rebels not only existed alive, but also seriously threatened the safety of the country. How could the emperor and the central government ignore it? Since the emperor and the central government attached importance to it, we must investigate where these rebels came from? What are the forces behind the rebels? What is the purpose of the rebels chasing the situation in Middle-earth and endangering the security of Middle-earth? Undoubtedly, all the spearheads will be pointed at the Shandong people, so we will use the name of suppressing the rebellion to kill Shandong people."

Wei Baoluan took a deep breath and asked, "How could Zheng shoot himself in the foot?"
