Chapter fifty-ninth conspiracy
Obviously he heard the impatientness in Feng Qi's words, but the man in military uniform did not intend to compromise. He asked stubbornly: "Mr. Feng, Bei Zhi thinks that the Empire and the Lin family are also a family, and the two sides have negotiated many times. Although the negotiation failed this time, they may not resort to force because of this, right?" After speaking, he glanced at the intelligence officer sitting in the lower head.
"A family? If it is really a family, then the Lin family would have transferred the jurisdiction of Lujiang to the Central Committee of the Empire early in the morning, right?" I felt that the other party's words were a bit naive, and Feng Qiheng glanced at the other party. If it were not for the other party and were not directly under his command, he might have an attack immediately. However, the other party was an army official under the Wu Prime Minister's Mansion and had no dependent relationship with him. He had to explain patiently: "This time, the Lin Lang family is responsible for solving the problems of Lujiang and Bashan Mansions. General Qiu wouldn't know, right?
Situ Mingyue's third son Situ Jun, this man is cold-hearted and cruel, and he will definitely revenge his grudges. He is definitely not a good person to him. Lin Guowei refuted his face this time. In order to establish his prestige, he won the support of his ministers in the future battle for the throne, what do you think he will do? And now Situ Mingyue has authorized him to control the army of the Western and Southern Military Regions of the Empire. He is afraid that Lin Guowei will refuse his request, so that he can recover Lujiang by force to show his martial arts?"
Shaking his head, the man in military uniform thought about his words and said, "Mr. Feng, I don't think so. Situ Jun was ordered to deal with the matters between Lujiang and Bashan Prefectures, but Lujiang is now four divisions and troops of the First Lin Family Corps. This is the elite of the Sanjiang Army. It is absolutely impossible for Situ Jun to solve the problem by relying solely on a legion in the Western Military Region. But if the Southern Military Region Army is to be used, how should the Maqi Khans deal with it? He is afraid that he cannot consider this issue."
"It was not impossible for the Empire to make peace with the Maqi Khan. When the northern front was tense, the Empire did it. Now, the recovery of jurisdiction from the vassals is related to the empire's prestige, and the empire is determined to win. The Lin family has always regarded Lujiang as their bridgehead for entering the Central Plains, and will never let it go. I heard that the Lin family's daughter Lin Yuexin ran away because of disagreement with his father and brother on the issue of Lujiang's stay or leave. Even so, Lin Guoxiong still insisted on controlling Lujiang, which shows that the Lin family's determination to obtain Lujiang. This was originally a unique plan for the prime minister, and the purpose was to make the two families publicly turn against each other. Now this goal has been achieved. Therefore, according to the subordinates' views, the battle between the two sides is inevitable. At present, all the intelligence shows that both sides are preparing for the final preparations before the decisive battle." Seeing that the other party was polite, the intelligence officer couldn't help but start to speak up for the Lord Zun of the Mansion.
He snorted contemptuously, and the man in military uniform asked seriously: "Is there any information to confirm the peace between the Maqi Khan? The empire wanted to get back Lujiang, but the question is whether they have the strength now. You must know that siege cities and land cannot be obtained by verbal intimidation. It requires strength to support it, and a real sacrifice is required!"
"General Qiu, are you too exaggerating? Then what do you want to do when Situ Jun comes to Wuhu County? He has mobilized the troops of the Western and Southern Military Regions of the Empire just to practice and scare Lin Guowei? Or do you think he might be targeting us?" Feng Qi was very unhappy, but he did not reveal it. He just waved his hand to stop his subordinates who were about to refute and asked in a deep voice.
The man in military uniform was also choked by Feng Qi's words. To be honest, he did not have a clear view. He intuitively felt that the Empire and the Lin family were so popular and creating momentum. All intelligence also showed that a battle between the two sides was inevitable, which made him feel that something was wrong. But he couldn't say where the problem was. But he believed in one sentence: too normal and calm often hides huge crises, but for a moment he could not find out where the dangers came from.
"Mr. Feng, I dare not speak nonsense, but the performance of this empire and the Lin family is too eye-catching. Is there anything in between-?" After thinking for a while, the man in military uniform still expressed his opinion.
"Then General Qiu thinks there is still a problem in this? What is the problem? Please let General Qiu make it clear." Feng Qi's tone was a little unpolite. This guy was just looking for trouble and doubting everything, but he couldn't raise a partner of doubt. It was simply outrageous. I don't know what Bo Xiang really liked this guy, and even asked him to discuss with him a major issue.
Even though he knew that his statement would seriously deteriorate and the other party, the man in military uniform still gritted his teeth and said word by word: "Although Bei Zhi has not found any problem in this, Bei Zhi thought everything should be cautious, especially now that Bo Xiang has gone to Beiyuan again. Bei Zhi thought it would be best to report Bo Xiang quickly and urgently, please know about this situation."
"Enough, General Qiu! I think there is no need to do this now. I don't see any abnormality in it, nor do I think there is anything worth reporting to Bo. Since Bo appointed me to be responsible for the overall situation of Kansai for the time being, I think I have the right to make this decision." Feng Qi said coldly, "The situation in the north is severe, and there is no need to disturb Bo for these false inferences. General Qiu, since you think there is something strange in the middle, and Jincheng Mansion is under the imperial military front, just pay attention to strengthening your defense after you go back."
Maybe I felt that my words were a bit too much, but at the end, Feng Qi's tone eased again.
He sighed softly, and the man in military uniform stopped talking, stood up, bowed, and turned around. He also knew that the request he had just made was a bit too much. Since the Bo Xiang arranged for the other party to preside over the overall situation in Kansai, the other party naturally had the right to take charge, and he only regretted that he could not notice the suspicion now. Fortunately, the defense line of Jinchengfu was the focus of his own responsibility, and he himself was still quite confident and sure. Although the imperial army in the east was frequently mobilized, he himself was also very confident in dealing with the attacks of the imperial army in various ways.
Situ Jun sat upright in the seat and stared coldly at the two people standing with their hands hanging down, and squeezed out a few words from their teeth: "How are you preparing?"
"When you go back to Your Highness, everything is ready, just waiting for the action there." The man with a numb face bowed and replied, concise. He knew that his master didn't like to listen to nonsense, so he tried to answer as briefly as possible.
"Well, where are we here?" Nodded slightly, Situ Jun's expressionless face turned his eyes to the short and fat middle-aged man next to the numb-faced man.
"The three divisions of the Fifth Legion have moved to the border area, and the other two divisions have also entered the junction with Lujiang and Jincheng Prefectures. There is a division of the Lin family stationed on the other side of Lujiang." The short and fat middle-aged man also answered quickly.
"Old Qiu, what do you think?" Situ Jun still looked cold when he treated the old man in gray who had not spoken next to him, his tone was softer and more respectful.
"Your Highness does not need to be anxious. According to information, the Wu Xiangbo Jinchen of Taiping Sect has arrived in Beiyuan to preside over the war in the north. It is estimated that the Your Highness has also done a great job in the north. The pressure on Taiping Sect in the north is quite great, otherwise it would not have been urgently recruited by Bo Jinchen. The person who supports the overall situation here is Feng Qi, the head of the Taiping Sect in Hanzhong Prefecture. This guy is very ambitious, stubborn, and has a deep experience. There is nothing surprising. There should be no big problem. It should be expected to take down Jincheng Mansion." The old man surnamed Qiu said in a plain tone, but he was quite confident.
"But there are 60,000 Taiping troops stationed in Jincheng. If they are defending according to a dangerous place, there will be no less damage." The man with a slutty face continued.
"Idiot! The Taiping Army in Jincheng Mansion has been attracted by our army, and all attention is on our side. If the Lin family cannot make a breakthrough under such circumstances, then Lin Guowei should really get out! Once the Jincheng South Line is broken, it will only be a matter of time before the Jincheng Taiping Army is defeated. This will also reduce our losses. What does the size of the Lin family's losses have to do with us? We can attract attention in this way, and we have done our best to be kind and righteous!" The old man surnamed Qiu shrunk and scolded.
The man with a squid face turned red, and the man with a squid face lowered his head in shame and stopped talking. The short and fat middle-aged man next to him said with some dissatisfaction: "But if the Lin family occupied Jincheng Mansion and broke their promises, then wouldn't we be in vain?"
"Hmph, then do you see if Lin Guowei will do this? There are only four divisions in Lujiang, one division stationed in the capital city, and one division is stationed at the junction of the three governments and confronted us two divisions. Until now, they do not believe us. It is not difficult for the remaining two divisions to break through the weak defense line of the Taiping Sect's southern line, but to conquer Jincheng Mansion? Is it possible? I think their biggest role is to help us attract some of the Eastern Front to defend the enemy, and even help us to hold the enemy down. In the end, the recovery of Jincheng Mansion can only depend on us!" The old man surnamed Qiu explained patiently, as if everyone was a little confused.
"Old Qiu, if we recover Jincheng Mansion, what should we do next? How should we respond and explain to Lujiang Mansion and my father?" Even though it was difficult to open the question, Situ Jun still spoke coldly.
After glanced at the people next to him, Situ Jun immediately understood. With a wave of his hand, everyone knew that his master must have important things to ask for with the old man surnamed Qiu, and left with politeness.
