"Master, please look for me."

Huang Zhiwen walked into the study and bowed his hands.

Huang Baichuan chuckled and said, "There are no outsiders here, so don't be too polite, just sit down."

When Huang Zhiwen sat down, Huang Baichuan said softly: "Chu Huan has been taken to Fengjing and handed over to the court for crimes. The emperor should give him a fair trial."

Huang Zhiwen nodded and said, "You should bear the sin you have committed by yourself, and the general does not have to worry about him."

Huang Baichuan finally didn't have the will to execute Chu Huan, but took it to Fengjing and handed it over to the court for crimes. If he was sentenced to death, it would be his own fault and he could not blame others. He said that. But now, Huang Baichuan took the initiative to attack and was a key figure in this war. The court was relying on him, so there is a high probability that the court would not easily offend Huang Baichuan for a small governor, and Chu Huan's life would still be left behind.

In this regard, Huang Zhiwen was not dissatisfied with what Huang Baichuan did. After all, humans are not animals. If they are humans, they have feelings. Huang Baichuan tried every means to keep Chu Huan's life, which is also a normal human nature.

"Zhiwen, now we easily take over Yizhou, Cheng Xisi still doesn't know the truth. At this time, we will take advantage of the victory and fight from behind, and we will definitely catch him off guard. I don't understand why you have to delay for a long time?"

Huang Baichuan turned to the topic.

War is a continuation of politics. A war with no profitable political interests is in vain and people have no motivation.

The court ordered the Caizhou Jiedushi Huang Baichuan and Chuzhou Jiedushi Wang Huaili to send troops to quell the rebellion. Both of them were sent troops under the orders, with the starting point of the same, but their thoughts were very different.

Wang Huailio's mind is very simple. He is obscene and does not work hard. If the court has the upper hand, he will take advantage of the situation and push it, add icing on the cake and make contributions. If Cheng Xisi has the upper hand, he will watch the fire fighting across the river and keep his troops still. Therefore, in Wang Huailio's view, this time the dispatch of troops is like doing business, with no risks and no profits.

Compared with Wang Huailii, Huang Baichuan's thoughts have the same place and different place. The same place is that if the court has the upper hand, Huang Baichuan will choose the same way, take advantage of the situation, add icing on the cake, and make contributions. The difference is that if Cheng Xisi takes the upper hand, Huang Baichuan will lead the maximum force that can be mobilized, launch an attack from behind, and attack Cheng Xisi in a comprehensive manner.

This is a plan that Huang Zhiwen and Huang Baichuan had already formulated.

What is Huang Baichuan doing this? Of course, it is for fame and fortune. As long as you have the opportunity, you will always get it, but fame is not so easy to get it.

Huang Baichuan was born in the White Turban Army. He was not only rich and high-ranking because of this identity, but also because of this identity, he was covered in stains and was excluded and despised by everyone. In fact, Huang Baichuan has been very closed and isolated in Caizhou for so many years.

Huang Baichuan is an ambitious and ambitious person. He has always wanted to change this situation. After five years of peace in the Battle of Jiangnan, he took such a great risk and joined the rebel court in order to use the power of Yang Liecheng and others to force the court to compromise and gain greater development space and freedom for himself.

However, after a war, all the dreams were gone. Although Huang Baichuan finally succeeded in protecting himself, the entire Jiangnan situation changed greatly.

In the Jiangnan region, the three most powerful military governors, the vassal states, Yue and E Jiedu Yang Liecheng, were defeated and killed. The deputy envoy of Jiangnan Jiedu, Hong and Jiang Jieduan, Zhao Baian, were suspicious of Emperor Zhao Zhi. After the war, their military power was gradually weakened. Many of their generals were transferred from the Jiangnan region. The military group of Hong and Jiang vassal states, who were once famous and had sufficient soldiers and food, were severely weakened, and their total strength was greatly reduced to only more than 10,000 people.

Wang Huaili, who was in charge of Huainan, began to dominate the country after losing the two checks and balances between Yang Liecheng and Zhao Baian, and became the strongest military governor in the entire Jiangnan region, and far surpassed others.

In this way, Huang Baichuan, Caizhou, which is adjacent to Chuzhou, can be imagined his mood and situation.

In fact, the imperial court left Huang Baichuan to check and balance and prevent Wang Huailio, which did play an effective role, but there is one premise, that is, the imperial court had enough strength to prevent local governors from doing anything indiscriminately. Zhao Zhi's military achievements were outstanding in this dynasty. He won great victories in the two Longyou Wars, regaining a large area of ​​his hometown, and his military power was awesome.

In this environment, let alone Wang Huailio, all the local governors and vassal states in the world, who does not have a strong sense of awe and fear towards the court?

Therefore, during this period, Huang Baichuan had a very obvious role in Caizhou, which made Wang Huaili dare not have any abnormal movements.

But once and forth, after Zhao Zhi's death, Zhao Xun, who had succeeded to the throne, lacked control over the government and could not completely stabilize the entire political situation. He himself was the first new king and had no prestige or reputation. In addition, since Zhao Zhi's death, a series of serious problems have been exposed, which made Zhao Xun and the entire court breathless and had no extra energy to take into account the area.

In recent times, Wang Huaili has been making frequent moves, frequently creating conflicts between Chuzhou and Caizhou. This is obviously deliberate, and it also exposed Wang Huaili's attitude towards Huang Baichuan, which is to eliminate it quickly. If Huang Baichuan had not always maintained the greatest restraint and Zhao Baian could not stay for a long time after coming to Jiangnan, he had a huge prestige in the Jiangnan region and had a strong appeal. These external factors have caused Wang Huaili to be afraid and did not take any bigger actions. However, Huang Baichuan understood very well that this was only temporary. Once the overall situation changed, Wang Huaili's first thing to deal with was definitely himself, which made Huang Baichuan feel very heavy and nervous.

Huang Zhiwen has been warning Huang Baichuan that Caizhou is not a place to stand. If you want to make a difference, you must find new space. With Wang Huailei in the Jiangnan region, we will never have a chance to make a comeback.

However, the imperial court asked them to preserve them only for the sake of the current situation. The fundamental point was that it had always maintained strong suspicion and suppression. Under such premise, it was already very difficult for Huang Baichuan to protect himself, not to mention changing places.

But now, the opportunity has come.
