Things have come to this point, Mu Jing has no absolute control, people's hearts are uncontrollable, no matter what kind of choice Cai Yong makes, he can only bear it, if it really comes to that point, I am afraid that he will have to pay a big price.

Mu Jing is very affectionate, and now there are not many relatives around him, even if Cai Yong is not good, he can still have a way to save him.

If he is tough, even if he is a persistent person like Hu Zhao Xizhicai, he has to give three points of thin face, even if Cai Yong finally chooses to be the enemy of the Minghou Mansion, as long as he fails to create an irreparable situation, he still has a chance to save his life.

So before Mu Jing went south, he summoned Tan Zong.

Jing Wusi's development over the years is okay, openly and secretly, a lot of chess pieces have been buried for the princes of the world, and the news network has also expanded, although it is not enough to put the princes of the world on the chessboard, but the news of most of the princes can be transmitted back.

Such merits, as the boss of Jingwu Division, Tan Zong has made great contributions.

Tan Zong's legs and feet are inconvenient, but he is so strong, although he broke a leg in Nanyang, he can be equipped with a prosthetic leg, in order to practice walking, I don't know how much blood has been worn, and now he can walk normally, as long as he doesn't run, no one knows, he is a person who broke a leg.

As the commander of Jingwu Zuosidu, he is the old man of the Mu family, even if his ability is a little worse than Zhao Xin, and he is a little inferior to Yue Shu, but his position is unshakable.

In this kind of secret spy department, no one can trust Mu Jing, he can only believe in the descendants of the pastoral family.

"Old man Cai, you don't need to stare too much, he is a smart person, and he is an old ghost, an old man, I knocked him a stuffy stick, he probably already thinks that his side is not safe, and it is useless for you to bury people in it!"

Mu Jing instructed and said: "As for the Chang'an Imperial Court, Zhao Xin will be staring, your goal is Liu Zhang, without Liu Zhang, Old Man Cai is powerless, in fact, we don't need to get into tension with Liu Zhang, I forgot a little before, treat him as an adult, in fact, he is just a child, a child's character can be shaped, let him eat well, drink well, play well, everything goes well, everything is happy, sooner or later his unwillingness will be wiped out!" ”

"What do you mean?"

Tan Zong frowned and looked at Mu Jing with some doubts.

"Do you have any people under you who are particularly good at eating, drinking, and having fun, send them to his side, and in addition, see if there are some people under the former ministers of the Liu family who are particularly flattering and talented, and send them to him!"

Mu Jing knew that this trick was a bit ruthless, but for both sides, maybe this was the best, only by raising Liu Zhang and abolishing it, maybe it would be possible to end the tense atmosphere between the two sides and make Yizhou more stable.

"Got it!"

Tan Zong nodded.

"Once I leave Bashu, there will be changes, you should also keep an eye on it, but you can't make assertions!" Mu Jing said: "Everything needs to be decided by Hu Changshi, and some other news that has nothing to do with the Chang'an Imperial Court can also be reported to Old Man Cai!" ”

Mu Jing said: "Hu Zhao has the ability to hold power, but after all, Old Man Cai is an old minister of the Three Dynasties, and his political wisdom is more keen, and there are some things that he may be more suitable to deal with!" ”

"Yes!"

Tan Zong personally wrote down one thing after another, as long as it was ordered by Mu Jing, he would do his best to do it.

…………………………………………

In May, the army assembled and began to move south.

The main forces of each department have already taken the first step south, and Mu Jing is leading the Divine Guard Army, as well as the Modao Battalion, the Black Armor Battalion, the Chongshan Battalion, and the Flying Bird Battalion of the White Emperor City Military Camp.

Of course, the five battalions of the Shenwei Army, the Praetorian Battalion and the Changshui Battalion remained, guarding Jiangzhou City, the Shenwei Battalion, the Huben Battalion, and the Yueqi Battalion as the main force of the Divine Guard, responsible for protecting Mujing to fight southward.

The first stop, Qianwei Jiangyang.

This is the first base of the herdsmen going south, and it is also the current general headquarters of the southern expedition, and at present, Huang Zhong, Xi Zhicai, Chen Dao, Gan Ning, Chen Gong, these military commanders and generals, are all gathered here to control the war in the south.

Mu Jing led the army from Jiangzhou, down the river, after a seven-day march, arrived at Jiangyang City.

Huang Zhong, Xi Zhicai and others greeted him with ten miles on the outskirts of the city.

"The last general, Huang Zhong!"

"The last general plays Zhicai!"

"The Last General ......"

The generals saw Mu Jing's armor in his hand, holding a dragon lance, and in the midst of the army, he came across his horse, and knelt down and saluted: "Welcome to the lord!" ”

"Get up!"

Mu Jing jumped off the horse and threw out the coiled dragon lance in his hand, and Jin Jiu, the god guard, hurriedly followed.

Mu Jing walked over, looked at Xi Zhicai, and said with a smile: "It seems that your spirit is good!" ”

"Lord, the last general is still looking forward to your coming!"

Xi Zhicai said with a wry smile: "Now there are some differences in the strategic deployment, so the lord needs to make a decision himself!" ”

"Disagreement?"

Mu Jing is not surprised, people's personalities are different, and the strategic style deployed will be far behind, the deployment of Chen Gong, the director of the General Staff Department, is slightly conservative, and the deployment of Huang Zhong, the director of the Military Justice Department, must be extremely fierce, and the drama Zhicai is even more erratic.

As for the main generals from Chen to Ganning, they need to pay more attention to the strength that their soldiers and horses can withstand, basically based on their own subordinates, and their strategic deployment is bound to be biased.

If their strategic plans converge, they will inevitably diverge.

"Go to Command!"

Mu Jing said: "Let me listen, what are your differences? “

"No!"

Everyone nodded.

The headquarters was established in the southern suburbs of Jiangyang City, leaning on the river, and set up camp on a mountain plain, surrounded by military camps, and the banners of the Jingping First Army, the Jingping Water Division, the War Tiger Battalion, and so on were all flying in the wind.

Mu Jing walked to the door of the headquarters and suddenly looked west, his eyes were vivid: "What is the place over there?" ”

"The salt wells and salt farms of the Dongguo family!"

Xi Zhicai said: "When we were stationed in Jiangyang, we wanted to test the attitude of this No. 1 salt merchant in Yizhou, so we put the headquarters here, facing each other from afar, put some pressure on them, and see their reaction!" ”

"What a good idea!"

The corners of Mu Jing's mouth raised slightly: "What reaction?" ”

"That night, in the name of sacrificing the army, the Dongguo family directly sent 50,000 stones of grain and grass!" Xi Zhicai said.

"So good!"

Mu Jing smiled: "I knew earlier, I would have pulled the Divine Guard Army to the door of Dongguo's house, I will see if I can make a hundred and eighty thousand, and I can also subsidize us for a period of time, do you say it!" ”

"How can there be such a good thing!"

Xi Zhicai shook his head: "I estimate that these 50,000 stone grains have already made the Dongguo family's heart drip blood, it is almost the limit, and if you force it again, it is estimated that you will have to force them to rebel, they have tenants under their command, no less than tens of thousands of people, it is really chaotic, this Jiangyang City has to be scrapped!" ”

"Besides, we are not bandits!" Huang Zhong opened his mouth and said: "I can't rob it openly, so I discussed it with Zhicai, people gave us a good face, and we also had to respect the attitude, so Zhicai came to visit the head of the Dongguo family!" ”

"You're not bandits, I'm not!"

Mu Jing looked at the salt field in the west and squinted slightly: "Don't let me get a chance, or I'll ......"

Salt is a profiteering thing.

I'll have to get it back sooner or later.

But now he doesn't have to put his energy here for the time being, the southern expedition is important, as long as the south is sorted out by himself, a Dongguo family is not a problem, and when the time comes, he will slowly play with them.
