Chapter 924 New information brought by Mao Sui
Which side should I choose?
This is actually not a very difficult question for Yu Xin.
Just as he was about to speak, a sudden news interrupted Yu Xin's words.
"Yu Qing, the chief supervisor of Hu Yiwei, Mao Sui was looking for a meeting outside."
Yu Xin was stunned for a moment, then said, "Come and be welcome."
A moment later, Mao Sui walked into the room and saluted Yu Xin and Zheng Zhu: "Mao Sui met Yu Qing, Zheng Qing."
Yu Xin smiled and said, "Mr. Mao doesn't have to be too polite. I wonder what is important about General Mao coming to Chu this time?"
Although Mao Sui's title is just a doctor, which is far from that of Yu Xin or Zheng Zhu, and his power cannot be compared with the two important officials of Longtai, the identity of Mao Sui's Hu Yiwei General Manager is enough to make all the important officials of Longtai treat him with an equal attitude.
What's more, Yu Xin has a ghost in his heart now, so he is naturally more polite to Mao Sui.
In fact, Mao Sui's whereabouts have been quite secret in recent years. Sometimes they appear next to Zhao Dan, but often they disappear for a while. It can be said that it is elusive and irresistible, which further increases the mystery of Mao Sui.
Mao Sui looked at Yu Xin with great meaning, and saw Yu Xin's heart slightly, then smiled and said, "That's right, I have been performing the king's mission in Yingdu for a while, and I have some understanding of the current situation in Chu State. So if Yu Qing and Zheng Qing want to understand something, Mao Sui can do his best."
Yu Xin and Zheng Zhu looked at each other and saw a bit of suddenness on each other's face.
In fact, Yu Xin and Zheng Zhu have always been somewhat confused about the current situation in Chu.
Because in the eyes of these two people, Li Yuan was just a confidant of Chunshen Jun Huang Xie before, and he probably didn't have that great ability to gather Huang Xie's old subordinates to fight against the three major families.
Although the core characters of the three major families were almost caught by Li Yuan, the three major families had been operating in the Chu State for thousands of years. As long as they launched a counterattack, Li Yuan's ability and no support from Huang Xie's old subordinates should have been dead long ago.
After all, no matter what, the gap between the three major families and Li Yuan before is still too obvious.
Now that Mao Sui appears here, everything has been explained.
In this matter, the role played by Hu Yiwei is probably not as simple as Yu Xin and others knew before.
"It seems that the king's plan for Chu State is obviously not just the superficial ones..." When Yu Xin thought about this, he couldn't help but be surprised and admired by the king who was far away in Handan, and at the same time he was a little worried whether his romantic affairs had been exposed.
Just as Yu Xin was thinking about his own affairs in a complicated mood, Mao Sui smiled and said, "Since Yu Qing and Zheng Qing have met here, the negotiations must have had a preliminary result. I wonder if the two of you can tell Yu Wu about the conditions issued by the two factions of Chu?"
Yu Xin and Zheng Zhu looked at each other, and then told Mao Sui about the conditions they had obtained from the two factions.
After all, everyone knows that Mao Sui is the king's confidant, so these two people are not worried that Mao Sui will reveal his secret.
Not only that, Yu Xin even asked: "According to General Manager Mao's intention, which side should these two sides agree to?"
After thinking for a while, Mao Sui smiled and said, "Yu Qing, this matter is actually very simple. The news I just received was that the three major families had secretly mobilized an army of about 15,000 people from Jiujiang County. They would soon arrive in Yingdu and participate in this war."
Yu Xin and Zheng Zhu were stunned when they heard this and asked, "How powerful is this army? Can it change the situation?"
Mao Sui said: "As far as I know, these armies are private troops of the three major families, and they are troops that will never be used unless they are absolutely necessary. Although they have suffered considerable damage when they fought against Wei in the past few years, the three major families have invested a lot of resources and money over the years, and their combat effectiveness should have been almost recovered. If this army is put into the battlefield and Li Yuan is unaware of anything, then Li Yuan will undoubtedly be defeated!"
When Yu Xin and Zheng Zhu heard this, they couldn't help but gasp.
Now Li Yuan's army and the three major families each control half of Yingdu. Even when the Zhao delegation entered the city in the past two days, several small-scale conflicts broke out.
It can be foreseen that once the troops of the three major families enter Yingdu, the three major families will definitely launch an offensive as soon as possible and strive to defeat Li Yuan in one fell swoop.
This is not what the people of Zhao want to see.
If Li Yuan really was so burping, then Zhao would not be able to get along with others and kill Chu.
Yu Xin said in a deep voice: "Master Mao, how long will it take for the army of the three major families to reach Yingdu?"
Time is crucial.
Mao Sui said: "There are ten days at most, and seven days at least."
Yu Xin nodded and said, "If this is the case, then there is not much time left for Li Yuan to prepare."
Zheng Zhu interrupted: "With the personalities of the three major families, I think they are very likely to just think of the snake with Wuxu. Once Li Yuan is eliminated, the three major families are very likely to turn against each other."
Mao Sui nodded and slightly emphasized his tone: "So in my opinion, Li Yuan cannot fail. Compared with the three major families, most of Li Yuan's power is concentrated in Yingdu. Once Li Yuan's power is expelled from Yingdu, then Li Yuan's failure will be a foregone conclusion.
The three major families are different. The forces of the three major families are rooted in various parts of the Chu State. Even if they are expelled from Yingdu, they can still continue to fight against Li Yuan with their local strength."
All three people present were human wise men. When they said this, they naturally understood.
Yu Xin said in a deep voice: "So the best situation at the moment should be to find a way to make Li Yuan defeat the three major families, forming a situation where Li Yuan controls Yingdu, the three major families control the local area, and the two sides fight each other!"
Zheng Zhu nodded and said, "In this way, the battle between the two will definitely be more intense, and the internal friction of Chu will be even more serious!"
Mao Sui smiled and said, "Not only that, in order to eliminate the other party, these two will definitely offer more abundant conditions than they are now, so as to strive to make Da Zhao stand on their side!"
Yu Xin said: "Since that's the case, we have to discuss a comprehensive plan."
The three of them sat in the room for a whole day. It was not until the night fell that they finally came up with a relatively satisfactory plan.
Yu Xin stretched, let out a long breath, and said, "Very good. If you don't have any objections, then follow this plan."
The other two nodded in agreement.
Yu Xin said: "Since that's the case, it's not too late for this matter. I will return to the Chu Palace City to meet with Li Yuan!"
