Chapter 451 Li Baiyao's warning
Wei Fusi's "ambiguous" attitude gave King Qi infinite imagination and could not sleep all night.
Assuming that it can become a reality, Xijing's attitude is crucial, and if it wants to affect Xijing's attitude, it is crucial whether Yang Xuangan can conquer Dongdu as quickly as possible. If Yang Xuangan wants to capture Dongdu, it is crucial whether white-haired Li Fengyun supports it. If you want white-haired Li Fengyun to do your best, it depends on the position that the huge force behind Li Fengyun wants to take in this storm.
The next morning, just dawn, the King of Qi, who had not been asleep for a night, sent someone to summon Li Baiyao, Li Anqi and his son to the camp, and informed him in detail about the impact of this major incident on the political situation of Dongdu and the future situation.
In shock, Li Baiyao and his son admired Li Fengyun's accurate predictions, and at the same time they also keenly sensed the crisis hidden behind the urgent summons of King Qi.
The King of Qi had a strong desire for the imperial rule. When predictions became reality and when the opportunity to seize the imperial rule came, he could no longer control himself. He was shaken by the established decision to use this storm to make profits in order to survive. He turned to try to use this storm to seize the imperial rule. Although it was a gamble and a risky attempt, compared to the wild land in northern Xinjiang where he was eating raw meat and drinking blood, he fought bloody with the fierce Northern Barbarians, struggled hard by the two hostile forces in China and abroad, and gained the potential hope of being in endless pain and torture. It was too illusory, too far away, and too cruel. It would be better to bet happily and happily. If you win, you will be happy and happy. If you lose, you will be happy and happy. If you lose, you will lose your best.
Li Baiyao and his son felt very difficult.
Although Li Fengyun had already expected this, when Li Baiyao took the initiative to agree to the invitation of King Qi to board the "big ship" that could overturn at any time, Li Fengyun asked him to dissuade him at critical moments, but in fact, this was too difficult. After all, King Qi was surrounded by Guanlong people, and they were all powerful military and political leaders. Even if Li Baiyao, a great scholar from Shandong, won their welcome, it was only for the purpose of winning over Shandong people and would not pull him into their core circle. After all, there was no trust between the two at all. They were mutually exploited. Once there was no value in use, it would be a moment of rebellion.
Fortunately, the King of Qi was quite clear-headed and knew that whether he was going to Northern Xinjiang to survive or to Dongdu, he needed to win the support of Shandong people. History has long proved that whether it was the period of division, tripod or unified, if he wanted to dominate the world, he could not do without the support of Shandong people. So at the critical moment, he deliberately left the Guanlong people, concealed Wei Fusi, and summoned Li Baiyao and his son alone in the hope of building trust with Shandong people and winning their support. Of course, more importantly, he wanted to find the attitude and opinions of the huge force behind Li Fengyun towards this storm through Li Baiyao and his son. As long as there was a front-line opportunity, he would not let it go. He would definitely
If he wants to enter the Eastern Capital, unless he is desperate, he will not suffer in the northern border area where birds do not shit, and he will not want to lead the way in the Civil War that will break out at any time. He is the noble prince, the only legal heir of the imperial throne, and the future emperor of Zhongtu. How could he wear blood on the battlefield like a frontier garrison? Thinking about his father and his uncles, he led a million troops south to Jiangzuo, and finally all made great achievements, but he never let an arrow on the front line and killed an enemy? Why did the generation who should have enjoyed the shade of his ancestors fall to the desert and become a frontier garrison that will die?
How can there be such a truth in the world? The "Three Generations of Emperors" of Qi cannot figure it out. It is precisely because he can't figure it out that he is angry, feels wronged, and wants to bet once at all costs.
Li Baiyao and his son were silent, seemingly "digesting" this amazing news, making analysis and deduction, and in fact they were thinking about how to dissuade King Qi from taking his political future that might have a glimmer of hope and even his life to do such a gambling without any chance of victory.
After considering it for a while, Li Baiyao decided to give advice in a blunt way. It was boring to go around. He was at a disadvantage on the side of the King of Qi and had no right to speak. This time, the King of Qi summoned them to test them instead of asking for advice. So Yu Qian told the truth, and he was just slapped his butt and left, so he would not be defeated by Yu Dongdu in vain.
"Do you still remember the Yuchi Jiong Rebellion?" Li Baiyao asked.
The King of Qi frowned slightly and did not speak.
Yuchi Jiong reigned in Hebei, with hundreds of thousands of troops and strong strength. There were also Bashu Wang Qian and Jingxiang Sima echoed the difficulties and failed in the north and south. As a result, it failed in just over two months. The reasons for the failure were different, but in essence it was the conflict between the Guanlong people and the Shandong people. After the Guanlong people destroyed Shandong Gaoqi, they unified the Yellow River Basin, reached the "peak" of the outbreak. Some radical Shandong people planned to restore the country, while some radical Guanlong powerful people tried to destroy the prime minister's last emperor and the political group with him as the core by force. So they hit it off and joined forces to raise their troops. However, unification was the general trend. Coupled with hundreds of years of "hatred" between the Han people, the Han surname replaced the surname of the Lu as the king of the Central Earth, which was the common benefit of the Han surname.
As a result, the aristocratic group led by the five wealthy families in Shandong and the aristocratic group led by the local Han family in Guanlong, decisively joined forces to destroy this mutiny and help the late emperor seize the country's destiny, laying the foundation for the unification of Middle-earth. Later, there were various favorable historical conditions for the successful pacification of Jiangzuo and the completion of the great cause of unification. However, the late emperor dominated half of the country with the Han monarch, and also won the recognition of the Han nobles in Jiangzuo, especially the powerful people with their ancestral home in Shandong. Therefore, when Jiangzuo was at a loss, the first one to accept the unification of Middle-earth was these nobles, and then the Jiangzuo rich families who were dressed in the south had to accept this fact, and this is also an unignorable reason for the successful completion of the great cause of unification.
"The King of Han Wang Yang Liang's rebellion should still remember it fresh." Li Baiyao saw the King of Qi's eyes showing hesitation, and immediately added without hesitation.
The King of Qi's face changed, a little cold and a hint of sinisterness flashed through his eyes.
The same is true for the rebellion of King Yang Liang of Han. It was very popular in the early stage, but it failed in a blink of an eye. There are many reasons. However, the fundamental reason is that the conflict between the Guanlong people and the Shandong people is irreconcilable. The Guanlong people have curbed and cracked down on the Shandong people too much, and they have "bottomed and rebounded". Some radical Shandong people tried to take advantage of the political instability during the imperial rebellion to provoke internal strife among the Guanlong people and make profits. Some prince's remnants rekindled and used the ambition of King Yang of Han to successfully launch a military policy.
The change was that the two sides joined forces and were invincible, but the joint efforts of the Guanlong people and the Jiangzuo people were also extraordinary. Once they fell into a stalemate, there would be a danger of division, which would be of no benefit to Guanlong, Shandong and Jiangzuo's three major political groups. At the critical moment, the Jiangzuo people and the Shandong noble group headed by the five wealthy families joined forces to "attack" the Guanlong people. The Guanlong people had no choice but to make compromises and concessions. Therefore, the Shandong people "fisherman gained benefits" and struggled to reverse some political decline with their support for the Holy Lord.
Li Baiyao neither analyzes the current situation nor deduces the future trend. Instead, he suddenly mentions the Yuchi Jiong Rebellion and the Han King Yang Liang Rebellion. The purpose is very obvious, and it is to remind the King of Qi that if a military coup involving the interests of the three major political groups is to succeed, he must first win the support of at least two of the major political groups. On the contrary, if he only gets the support of one political group, he will undoubtedly lose.
Judging from the experience and lessons of the two failed military coups, the choice of Shandong people is crucial. Whoever Shandong people support is the final winner. Then in this military coup, the Guanlong people must be his supporters, while the Jiangzuo people are his opponents. In this way, the attitude of Shandong people is crucial, but do Shandong people support Yang Xuangan?
"Yang Xuangan killed You Yuan, which was equivalent to digging his own grave." Li Baiyao was not afraid of King Qi's dissatisfaction at all, and the third sentence pointed directly at the key point.
Yang Xuangan killed You Yuan and cut off the road to alliance in Shandong. Although he would not become enemies with the people of Shandong, he would at least become enemies with the people of Hebei. The Hebei noble group is the core force of the Shandong noble group. Three of the five super wealthy families in Shandong are in Hebei, and a large number of first-class families in Shandong are also in Hebei. The leaders of Shandong Confucian scholars and a large number of well-known scholars are also in Hebei, so the Hebei people have a strong voice in the Shandong political group. Yang Xuangan and Hebei people become enemies, so the noble groups such as Qilu, Dai Jin, Youyan and other places will not support him, because this mutiny has no chance of winning. When the Henan noble group sees that Yang Xuangan is in a desperate situation, even if they are willing to support him, they have to consider the heavy price they must pay for it once the mutiny fails. Therefore, they can only follow the "big troops" and draw a clear line with Yang Xuangan openly to avoid being burdened by him.
"Yang Xuangan will definitely be defeated, and it will be defeated in an instant." Li Baiyao warned seriously, "The reason why Bai Hai rushed to the Dongdu battlefield was to help Yang Xuangan capture Dongdu and let him persist in the Dongdu battlefield for a longer time so as to win more time for the Alliance army to switch to Hebei. However, Bai Hai was worried that he was dragged down by Yang Xuangan's defeat and tried every means to hide himself. This is the reason why he always held the banner of the Korean Prime Minister high when he entered Beijing this time."
The King of Qi had no expression on his face, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Since Dongdu is in a dead end, why does Yang Xuangan still attack Dongdu?"
"This is the reason why the king cannot enter Beijing." Li Baiyao's expression became more and more serious and his tone became more and more low. "Yang Xuangan took the initiative to fall into a dead end, definitely not for the sake of death, but for the sake of survival."
"Seeking for survival?" King Qi thought, as if he had some realization, "Is his goal..."
"The Central Plains is a place of four battles, a revolving door that goes east and west, north and south. The four directions of east, south and north may be Yang Xuangan's goal, but the problem is that if he wants to win himself enough time to survive, he must destroy Dongdu." Li Baiyao continued, "If the Dongdu is destroyed, Xijing will inevitably regain its position as the capital. In this way, Xijing will instead of Yang Xuangan to stand at the forefront of the confrontation with the Holy Lord, and of course the Holy Lord will not be able to take action to chase Yang Xuangan."
King Qi lowered his head and thought.
Li Baiyao sighed, "The real target of this storm is Dongdu. Yang Xuangan and Xijing joined forces to destroy Dongdu, destroying it wither and unstoppable. If the king accidentally enters Dongdu, he will inevitably be swept away by this storm. Dongdu is destroyed, the Holy Lord is defeated, Xijing triumphal will be heard, and the storm will end."
Dongshi is a symbol of the Holy Lord's adherence to the centralized political concept and the promotion of unified reform in a radical way. It destroyed the Dongdu, and in fact it severely damaged the Holy Lord and the reformists and the reformers. Let alone insist on reform, it is difficult for even the government to control it.
