There was a burst of ecstasy in his heart. Liu Fujie did not expect that the news the other party brought to him was such a surprise. Although he was on a mission, he was always paying attention to the development of the war in Western Xinjiang. To put it in his heart, Liu Fujie was not optimistic about the current situation of Western Xinjiang being attacked from all sides and being strong in the enemy. The war between the Eastern Front and Situ Tai was inevitable. However, although the Western Front avoided the Luzons' military front, Luo Beiren came with the power and must have some plans.

As expected, Xijiang had to give up Dongtengli County and instead defend in the mainland. The northwest and western regions adopted strategic defensive. In Liu Fujie's eyes, how to solve the problem of Luo Beiren will be the key to the strategic situation of the entire Western Xinjiang. The news he obtained from his fragmented pieces was that Luo Beiren launched an offensive in the northwest and western regions at the same time. Xijiang's defense was very passive and had been in a difficult state of maintenance. Unexpectedly, the opponent would make such amazing words as soon as he came.

However, Liu Fujie immediately restrained his mind and calmed down and asked, "Sir Cheng, when did this happen?"

"It should be a week ago. I just got this news. It seems that His Highness, King Qin, can finally deal with the war within the empire with peace of mind." Cheng Dayou's face was still lukewarm. This news was just a matter of helping him make up his mind to push it.

"What about another news?" Misfortune never comes alone, and blessings are unparalleled. Liu Fujie has a deep understanding of this sentence. He just said that there is another bad news. What will happen?

"Hehe, this news is probably enough to offset Brother Fujie's good mood just arrived. I was unwilling to tell Brother Fujie immediately, but the matter was urgent, so I dare not delay it. Situ Biao and Situ Tai seemed to have reached some kind of agreement. I just received information that Situ Biao's army in Huanggang and Anqing frequently mobilized the troops in Huanggang and Anqing, especially the water fleet. Situ Tai's two independent divisions were also ready to move in Jinling in the east. It seems that they are preparing to attack Jiujiang and Huzhou. In addition, three days ago, Maqihan's army entered the peninsula area, and now it should still be confronting the Western Xinjiang army in the Leigong and Kutterdam areas. It is said that the battle situation is very fierce." The man in gray clothes waved his hand to move the chessboard away, stretched his waist, hugged his hands, and had a graceful and leisurely attitude. There was no way to see what impact these news had on his mood.

But Liu Fujie knew that the heavy heart of the other party was not as relaxed as it was on the outside. If Situ Biao really wanted to attack Jiujiang, it would definitely advance by water and land. Although Cheng Dayou successfully recruited the Taihu water bandits, if he wanted to compare with Situ Biao, who had the most powerful naval army in the empire, he would probably not have any advantages. He should be said to be at a disadvantage. In terms of the army, let alone Situ Tai in the east, Situ Biao alone had three regular corpses, among which the Fifth and Sixth Legions were not weak in combat power, especially the Sixth Army.

The regiment is the strongest in the southern army, and Kim Jong-yang is a cunning veteran. Although the army controlled by Cheng Dayou has been continuously expanded and rectified recently, it is probably not possible to defeat Situ Biao if the troops of a legion are independent. In Liu Fujie's eyes, the two independent divisions just formed in Wuhu do not have the ability to fight at all. At most, they can be used as guards to maintain territorial security. Once Situ Biao really advances westward, it is really unpredictable whether the army under Cheng Dayou's control can withstand it.

But what Liu Fujie was most worried about was not this. Cheng Dayou still did not respond to his suggestions until now. It seemed that he was still in a wait-and-see state. Although the survival of his forces would affect the overall trend, it was not crucial. If Situ Tai and Situ Biao really merged, it would mean that the united front of the Situ family had finally taken shape. This is definitely not good news for Xijiang, which has not deep foundation in the empire. The Maqi Khan joined the battle clearly. The joint efforts of the Situ family and the support of the Duodu people and the Japanese people, this alliance already has the strength to compete with Xijiang. In this case, the joining of the Maqi Khan is undoubtedly adding a great help to the Situ family front.

The military strength of the Western Xinjiang is not strong in the peninsula area. There is only one Fourth Legion. The overall combat power of the Fourth Legion is not weak, but the number seems too weak compared to the Maqi Khans. If the Maqi Khans were really willing to help the Situ family with their strength, I am afraid that the troops invested in this battle will not be small. Although the Fourth Legion has a good geographical location and may be able to persist in the early stage, as the situation develops, the huge gap in strength may cause the situation to gradually transform in the direction that is beneficial to the Maqi Khans. The entire Eastern Continent will be brought in by this war. This is no longer as simple as an imperial civil war, and it is even related to the issue of dominance of the Eastern Continent.

As his mind changed rapidly, Liu Fujie had already figured out some of the other party's words. It seemed that the guy in front of him was going to show off to him today. So, the confluence of Situ Tai and Situ Biao also led to the rebellious guy's final choice. It seems that the fate of Jiujiang and Huzhou should be decided at this time.

"Mr. Cheng, at such a critical moment, I believe you should have made a decision. Fujie has been bothering Jiuhu for a long time, and it is time to leave. The current situation of the Empire and even the current situation of the East Continent has reached a watershed stage at present. How should everyone choose their own paths? You think so?"

The long-lasting words were so harsh in Cheng Dayou's ears. He tried his best to delay and avoid it, hoping to see the situation more clearly and make it easier for him to place his bets. However, Situ Tai and Situ Biao seemed to be impatient. If they did not make a clear answer and took substantial actions to express themselves, they were afraid that Situ Biao's army would soon enter Jiujiang and the war in the southeast was about to begin.

The Maqikhan chose the Situ family, what about themselves? Two thoughts kept turning around in Cheng Dayou's heart. If you choose the Situ family, the halo of the remnants of Taiping will always be shrouded in their heads. The great aristocratic class represented by the Situ family may win over them in every way at this time, but what about the future? I am afraid I will never be able to truly integrate into their class, which has been proven by countless history. But what about choosing Western Xinjiang? Now the Situ army tigers are on both sides.

Although Xijiang has won victory over Luo Beiren, the invasion of the peninsula by the Maqi Khans has forced Xijiang to face the crisis of two-line wars again. Can Li Wufeng continue to support it? If he rejected the Situ family, the war would break out immediately. Can the small amount of troops in his hands resist the attacks of the Situ family? Cheng Dayou himself has no idea. How much support can Xijiang provide for himself in this situation?

The chaotic and complicated thoughts entangled in Cheng Dayou's heart like weeds, which made him, who had always been decisive, still unable to make a decision easily. This decision will affect his life and the tens of thousands of men under his command, and he must be careful.

"Brother Fujie, if this choice was so easy to make, Cheng would not have been so shameless to stay with Brother Fujie for so long." He sighed slightly, and Cheng Dayou shook his head as if he was a little tired. "I believe Brother Fujie will be in a dilemma in this position of Cheng."

"Otherwise, please Rong Fujie explain his doubts to the Lord." Knowing that this is the last opportunity to influence the other party, Liu Fujie didn't want to miss it. "Mr. Cheng was born in a remnant of Taiping, which was not important, but for the Situ family, this is probably the eternal sting in their hearts. No matter how the situation develops in the future, even if Master Cheng works for the Situ family, no matter how many contributions the Lord has made, they will never let go of it at this point. I believe Master Cheng should know the nature of these so-called royal nobles.

To put it in mind, if you think about your future, you should exclude the Situ family. On the other hand, in our Western Xinjiang, from the Director of Military Affairs Ling Tianfang to the commanders of each legion, you can count them. How many people are the so-called orthodox gentry? Ling Tianfang is a down-and-out scholar from the Central China National Taiwan; Mulige is a miserable family from a poor family; Helianbo is a bandit leader; Hu Yanqiu is a foreign general. Doesn’t this show the inclusiveness of our Western Xinjiang? Who can compare with His Royal Highness the King of Qin?"

Seeing that the other party was silent, Liu Fujie didn't care. "Maybe the adults would say that it would seem too selfish to consider their own personal interests alone. And if Western Xinjiang fails, these things will be nothing more than castles in the air, mirrors and moons, and nothing will happen. Then let Fujie analyze the situation of the empire for the adults."

Cheng Dayou had to admire the other party's amazing persuasion ability. Although he was prepared, he was still moved by the other party's words. Of course, this kind of touch was only to make him move. To make a decision immediately, the other party's further development was needed. However, the prosperity of talents in Western Xinjiang has already made Cheng Dayou amazed. The strength of a regime is not only represented by military power. Cheng Dayou knew this clearly, so he spared no effort to recruit talents. Unfortunately, although the color of the remnants of the Taiping Sect was faded.

There have been a lot of things, but it is still difficult for those literati who are not squinting to focus on themselves. Except for the merchants who are only profit-oriented, the gentry in Jiujiang and Huzhou have actually always maintained a distant attitude to maintain the cooperation between the two sides. In order to obtain their sincere support, Cheng Dayou believes that under the current situation, it is simply whimsical. But looking at Western Xinjiang, from military to politics, finance to diplomacy, culture and art to education and health, he is simply no longer at the same level as the other party. The performance of the diplomat in front of him is enough to impress himself.

"Maybe adults would think that Xijiang is now attacked from many sides, especially the Maqi Khan joining the war, which will greatly affect the direction of this war, but I can tell you clearly that no matter who it is, it cannot control its ending in this war." Liu Fujie began his speech with a strong emotional words.

"Why do you say that? Let me analyze the power comparison of the East Continent for you. In fact, there are only two forces that can truly pose a threat to Western Xinjiang. One is the Liberians led by the Kamans, and the other is the Machikhans, among which the Liberians have the greatest threat. But look at the current Liberians, the Kamans have suffered great damage in the last Northern War and the energy has reached a point of injury. Gomez's resignation marks that the Kamans are already on the decline, and the Pooles also suffered losses in that war. With a weak economic foundation, without the financial aid of the Kamans, I am afraid that the Pooles will continue to be in trouble.

The funds for a war are not enough. As for the Sisro people, let alone the relationship with Western Xinjiang is still good. Last year's drought forced them to rely on the food support from Western Xinjiang. The lifeline of food is stuck in the hands of Western Xinjiang. At least it will not cause any storms in a short period of time. Moreover, their new prime minister's policy is no longer as aggressive as before. The Dutun people can be regarded as the younger brother of the Liberians at most. They are unable to fight back from the invasion of the Japanese, but they are trying to peck at the empire. Only fools like Situ Tai will believe them. If the two weak people hug each other, they think they can become strong. This logic is too naive and ridiculous."

"At present, the Maqi Khans are probably the ones who can pose a threat to Western Xinjiang. However, the geographical location of the Maqi Khans determines that they cannot pose a substantial threat to Western Xinjiang's strategic interests, unless they can break through the western part of the Sanjiang River. To put it bluntly, the importance of the peninsula area in the territory of Western Xinjiang may be very important in the long run, but for now, it is not unacceptable to lose it. In other words, even if the Maqi Khans can win a great victory and take down the peninsula area in one fell swoop, it will not cause any damage to the strength of Western Xinjiang. As long as Western Xinjiang can solve the Central Plains war within half a year or even one or two years, it is easy to recover the peninsula area! I also believe that it is not difficult to rely on the geographical advantage to drag this war for several months with the combat effectiveness of the Fourth Legion."

"Looking at the battle situation in the Central Plains, Situ Tai has only three military forces. The two legions of the First and Second Legions of the Empire can be fought. But looking at the performance of the Second Legion when he encountered the Fifth Legion of the Western Xinjiang in Yunzhong Prefecture, the first division, known as the elite, has been cancelled. Now there are hundreds of thousands of troops gathered on the Yunzhong border, but he has been reluctant to launch an attack. I doubt whether this army still has the style of the Second Legion! Now the Luobei war has ended, I can tell you without hesitation that Luobei will soon become an ally of the Western Xinjiang, and the cavalry of Luobei people will soon become Situ Tai's nightmare like other nomadic cavalry. I believe that the adults will see this scene soon."

Liu Fujie's decisive words finally moved Cheng Dayou. Luo Beiren was defeated, but Luo Beiren had been defeated several times in the hands of Western Xinjiang, but this did not mean that the combat effectiveness of Luo Bei's cavalry can be despised. The strong man who could traverse the Tenggeli grassland for decades was not a false reputation. It was by no means accidental that the imperial army in the past fought and failed repeatedly in front of Luo Beiren. In addition to their strong military strength, the more important thing is that they can defeat them repeatedly is strategic and tactical.

When, almost every time, they rely on their strong comprehensive strength to force the other party to confront their strengths with their own weaknesses and eventually win. But if Luo Beiren also acted as the vanguard of Li Wufeng's army like the Mot, Tubu and Qiuer, Cheng Dayou can assert that on the northern plains, no one can be the opponent of Li Wufeng's army and lose the advantage of field battles. Relying on the defense of the city alone, Cheng Dayou does not believe how long Situ Tai can last.

"Brother Fujie means that Luo Beiren will join His Highness the King of Qin?" Cheng Dayou, who had been silent and listened to the other party's endless talk, finally couldn't help it.

"If you don't believe it, Fujie has nothing to say, but it won't take long to believe it, and you will know if what Fujie said is true." Liu Fujie smiled indifferently.

Cheng Dayou nodded and said no more. In fact, he believed this. Judging from the information he obtained, Western Xinjiang first defeated the Luobei cavalry in the Western Regions, and then cut off the logistics supply line of Luobei's main force, forcing Luobei's army to withdraw. However, when Luobei's army retreated, the Western Xinjiang army did not dispatch one army and one soldier to pursue the victory. If this was not intentional in a battle, it would be an unforgivable mistake. This can only be said to be a name for a little bit, that is, the senior leaders of the Western Xinjiang had already reached a compromise with the senior leaders of Luobei on certain things, but the speed of reaching the compromise was so fast that people who did not know the truth even suspected that this war was not a prop that had been arranged long ago.

"Let's look at the south again. The power in Situ Biao's hands is at best two legions. In addition to the Sixth Legion, the Fifth Legion comes from the Situ Jun group, with average combat effectiveness, and it's hard to say whether it can get the full trust of Situ Biao. In addition, the newly built legion seemed to be able to perform well in the Battle of Baling, the rest of the performance was mediocre. In general, Situ Biao's military strength is the only sixth Legion, but with the First Western Xinjiang Legion in Guanxi, Fujie cannot see how much chance it will win when facing this First Western Xinjiang Army."

After a lot of words, Cheng Dayou's original hesitation seemed to have become much calmer, especially the last few words were quite inconsistent. With the First Legion of the Western Xinjiang was in Guanxi, Situ Biao was afraid that Situ Biao would not dare to let the Sixth Legion leave easily. If it were other legions, Cheng Dayou felt much more at ease. Thinking of this, Cheng Dayou's heavy mood was much more relaxed. It was time to make a decision. Winning and defeat were here. I'm afraid that he would have no way to turn back.
