Although Shi Jingsi's tone was a little unkind, Guo Chongtao was still very respectful in the face of this great commander in the Jin army, and said in a deep voice:

"Li Han's eagle and bird nature failed to let the King of Jin take over the great kindness of the hostage, which led to the Zhaoyi army falling into the hands of the Liang bandits. Although Li Tianqu defeated the Zhuwen dog bandits in the Central Plains, he successively annexed Xuanwu, Zhongwu, and the Heyang vassals... not only is the current strong, but it has defeated our army very much! Now we are going to raise troops north in the name of aid, because we are afraid... we are also coveting the territory of the Zhaoyi army's vassal states.

Since Zhu Wen’s dog thief, if our Jin State is close to him, it is certainly an ally on the surface. But in my opinion... it will also cause trouble for our Jin State in a long time, because Li Tianqu... I am afraid that now, he will have already planned to plot against our army..."

"Oh? How do you see it?"

Although he has a friendly relationship with Li Tianqu, after all, when it comes to the situation of his own forces in the future, Shi Jingsi immediately paid attention to whether Guo Chongtao was exaggerating. Noting that Shi Jingsi's gaze became more and more serious when he looked at him, Guo Chongtao then said:

"At that time, Zhu Wen's dog bandits blatantly sent troops to attack the Yicheng army under Li Tianqu's command, with the intention of attracting the towns of Heshuo Weibo, Chengde, and Yiwu to fall to the Liang State. At that time, the Liang army had 100,000 military tactics, and the Weibo army Luo Shaowei coordinated to invade. The Jiedushi Zhang Guiba could not defend it, and he could not help but lose the Yicheng army Zheng and Hua two states... But don't the general think that Li Tianqu's Yicheng army was lost quickly, and the ones that were taken back were faster?"

After hearing this, Shi Jingsi couldn't help but nodded slightly, and then said in a deep voice:

"Speak."

"In the view of the last general, the reason why Li Tianqu was able to quickly recapture the Yi army was very likely to have determined the intention of Zhu Wen dog thief. He also needs to send someone to inquire about whether the war between Zheng and Huazhou was lost again was because Li Tianqu had done something in advance in the city...

If this is true, then Li Tianqu intends to indulge the Liang thieves into Heshuo, and has previously sat down to see that the situation in Jin State is dangerous and urgent! After he repelled the Liang thieves' several rounds of offensives, he later took action and recaptured the Yi army and became a vassal state, which then posed a direct threat to Xuanwu's army in Bianzhou.

Although the more than 200,000 Zhu Wen dog thieves were easily defeated, it was really unexpected. However, Li Tianqu was very likely to have used our Jin State to plot against the lord from the beginning, and intentionally made our army fight with the Liang thieves even more tragic, so that he could reap the benefits of the fisherman. Fang Jin even took the power of the great victory and captured the Zhu Wen thieves' nest of Bianzhou in one fell swoop, and his strength quickly surpassed our army and the Liang thieves..."

Guo Chongtao's analysis was so incisive that Shi Jingsi's expression became increasingly ugly. He was silent for a moment, suddenly sighed and said in his heart:

Even if the lord and Li Tianqu fight against Zhu Wen together, can we reach a consensus? I tried my best to unite with him before... But is it a competition among the heroes? Where are there eternal allies? If it were not for the corps colleagues who served the same lord, they would inevitably be intrigue with each other? Mutual plot against each other... But if everything should be as true as Guo Chongtao expected? Li Tianqu... Hehe, I know you have talent? But I really underestimated your scheming...

After Guo Chongtao's words woke up, Shi Jingsi was inevitably angry. After all, he had a very good impression of Li Tianqu? He was also very straightforward in his attitude towards him? But Shi Jingsi was completely conceived from Li Keyong's side. So when he thought of the other party's appearance when he was in contact with him, he was secretly plotting against him... Of course, his mood would not be much better.

However, Shi Jingsi knew that Chu was fighting for hegemony in troubled times, and it was not that the heroes in the world burned incense and worshiped brothers because of their similar loyalties. They could still retain their own foundation now? Even a monarch who had strengthened his strength? Who is not scheming? Shi Jingsi also knew the temper of his lord Li Keyong. Although Zhu Wen was seriously injured, he was still a thin camel bigger than a horse. Zhu Wen and Liang Kingdom will never die. It is best to maintain a cooperative relationship with Li Tianqu on the surface...

But the relationship between the two parties has begun to be in harmony? And in the future, we must be more careful and plot against each other...

After thinking about it, Shi Jingsi then instructed Guo Chongtao:

"What you said is true. But no matter what you say, Zhu Wen's dog thief is still the lord? Even my great hatred for Jin State? As for Li Tianqu... how can he get along with him? I have my own sense of responsibility.

I believe you will have to deal with Li Tianqu in the future, and remember not to show any hostility to him. In the future, you must be more careful with Li Tianqu... After all, it is not the time to break with him openly,"

After hearing this, Guo Chongtao immediately bowed and accepted the order and said, "Yes! The last general will follow the command of the Lord!"

Shi Jingsi couldn't help but look at Guo Chongtao carefully and thought to himself:

This guy is meticulous. I underestimated him before when I thought of this step. No wonder the lord would keep him by his side to listen to it... If Guo Chongtao had more experience in the army, he would have probably been very useful in our Jin army... But at that time, the enemy of our Jin army would probably be more than Zhu Wen...

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※

There are often flaws in strategies, and it is inevitable that people will see through it. Of course, Li Tianqu is very clear about this truth.

What Li Tianqu knew even more was that now he took advantage of the situation and took away several of Zhu Wen and Liang Kingdom's important places, and both territory and territory expanded rapidly. Even if he had never thought of plotting against Li Keyong before, the Jin army's suspicion and guard against him would still increase day by day.

Because the heroes are at this time, especially with their own forces, Zhu Wen, Li Keyong, Yang Xingmi and other monarchs, no one will be willing to bow their heads and surrender to the other side. No matter the enemy or allies, no one will sit still and see other forces as dominant.

Therefore, some conspiracies and plots are the first to take action, and then to suffer. No matter which side, they will eventually make a move.

But if he was deliberately plotting against Jin State, even if the wise and wise men under Li Keyong would be aware of it, there was no conclusive evidence. Li Tianqu asked himself that he could guess Li Keyong's temper, because he hated Zhu Wen too much and was a little bit mute, so he could only admit it for the time being. I guess there would be friction and disputes between them in the future, but Zhu Wen's existence could generally ensure that the Jin army would be cautious and would not break up immediately.

At least for now, in addition to supporting the Jin army, the Zhaoyi army must also get a share of the pie. There is another goal that can still reach a consensus with Li Keyong:

Li Hanzhi, who betrayed Jin State and turned to Zhu Wen’s side, did not intend to let him escape back to Liang State as he did, and enjoyed a few years of wealth before he died of illness.

So this time, after Li Tianqu arranged people to sort out the people's livelihood affairs in Bianzhou, he still personally led the 120,000 troops, went north through Yicheng's army, and sent a team of light cavalry to patrol one after another.

Yicheng's army advanced northward. Originally, Weizhou (Xinxiang and Hebi areas in the northern part of Henan Province) and Xiangzhou (Anyang City in the northern part of Henan Province and Linzhang County in the southern part of Hebei Province). Although Luo Hongxin and his son also turned to Zhu Wen, the Liang army is afraid that they will be cut off by Li Keyong and Li Tianqu's coalition forces, and have already contracted greatly, so naturally they can no longer take into account the safety of Wei Bo's army.

According to the investigation, Luo Hongxin was anxious and fell ill. He handed over all the military affairs of the vassal states to his son Luo Shaowei to take care of. Li Tianqu probably remembered that when Luo Hongxin died, it would be only two or three years in history. The Wei Boya army was famous for its toughness. Zhu Wen's more than 200,000 troops were defeated by Li Tianqu. How could Luo Shaowei dare to come out to fight head-on?

Just as Li Keyong was rampant in the Wei Bo army's territory before, and went to the Yicheng Army's Baimajin Ferry to negotiate with Li Tianqu, Luo Shaowei still ordered the Yamen everywhere to defend the city and not to take the initiative to fight. Li Tianqu then assigned troops to warn the nearby counties and towns, pay attention to the movements of the Wei Boya army, and continued to advance northward.
