Chapter 532: Mutual Exploitation
From beginning to end, those remnants of Nanshu who have never been wiped out are a hidden scourge, they have been allies of the Pingnan Army before this, but the allies determined by this interest relationship will not last long after all.
If you come with profits, you will be together, and if you go with profits, you will disperse.
Now, the Pingnan Army has embraced the abolished prince of the Great Jin Dynasty, the sworn enemy of the remnants of Nanshu, and it is difficult for the remnants of Nanshu to continue to ally with the Pingnan Army.
Of course, Li Xing himself, who is the Great Highness of the remnants of Nanshu, doesn't mind these things very much, but he has no way to explain to the people.
So this alliance of interests was quietly dissolved.
The reason for the dissolution was not entirely because of the old hatred between the remnants of Nanshu and the imperial court, but because the two sides did not have the basic conditions for cooperation.
In the past, the basic cooperation between the two sides was to survive together.
But now, the Pingnan army not only chooses to embrace the abolished prince of the imperial court, but also wants to rebel, which is fatal.
First of all, if the Pingnan Army supports the eldest prince of the Ji family, the remnants of Nanshu will oppose it, and more importantly, the Pingnan Army will raise troops to rebel.
Previously, the Pingnan Army joined forces with the remnants of Nanshu, and for thirty years, they were only barely protecting themselves, whether it was Li Shen or Li Xing, they knew very well that the southwest together did not have the capital to fight against the imperial court.
Li Shen was forced to rebel, but there was no need for these remnants of Nanshu to be sent to death with them.
If you continue to follow Li Shen, these 100,000 remnants of Nanshu may not be able to be saved.
This is the root cause of the breakdown of cooperation.
Then the Marquis of Jing'an of the imperial court cut in at this very suitable point.
Li Xin co-opted the most important force among the remnants of Nanshu - the Mu family.
In addition, the Marquis of Jing'an also promised to give the remnants of Nanshu a way to live.
Therefore, in the end, these remnants of the collapse of the country thirty years ago, under the leadership of the Mu family, abandoned the partners they had cooperated with for decades and fell to the other side.
General Zhu Guo stood on the tower of Jincheng, and the urgent report in his hand was clutched in his hand and crumpled into a ball of paper.
At this time, although he still didn't have much fluctuation in his expression, those who were familiar with Li Shen knew that he was angry.
Very, very angry.
After a long time, General Zhuguo's clenched hand slowly loosened.
"What is the situation in Hanzhou now?"
He specially arranged 10,000 people in Hanzhou, led by Zhang Kai, the general of the Pingnan Army, in order to completely look at the remnants of Nanshu who were about to move, but he didn't expect that at this most critical juncture, something happened in Hanzhou.
At this time, Hanzhou could never have an accident, Li Shen knew very well in his heart that the remnants of Nanshu also had forty or fifty thousand combat strength, although these combat strength did not have the combat power of the standing army, but they also had swords and armor, and the huge number of people and the weapons they were equipped with were enough for them to become an important force in the southwest to influence the situation in the southwest.
The soldier who came to report the news was a little nervous in the face of Li Shen, but after calming down, he still said a complete sentence.
"Before they came to Jincheng, they were still confronting General Zhang and didn't really do anything, but those people's attitude was very tough, which means that if we don't let them leave Hanzhou, they will do it immediately."
"When General Zhang saw that the situation was bad, he asked the lowly official to come to the general immediately and ask the general to take an idea!"
"Tell Zhang Kai!"
Li Shen's face was gloomy: "In any case, these people are not allowed to leave Hanzhou for half a step, if they dare to break through, they will do it directly, and the attitude must be tough!" ”
"If there is a real fight, Jincheng will send someone over to help him!"
General Zhu Guoda's tone was sharp, almost gritting his teeth.
"Tell those remnants of Nanshu that the great Lao Tzu let go of Mianzhu, turn his head and eat them first, and then arrange the carriages and horses when the time comes, and go to meet Li Xin!"
The location of Hanzhou is actually on the edge of Jincheng, and the Pingnan Army is within reach.
But even so, Li Shen's words were just cruel words, if he could eat these remnants of Nanshu at will, he should have done it as early as after the last time he went to Hanzhou to talk about it.
You know, he is a whole 100,000 households, and 50,000 people can be drawn out of these 100,000 households at any time!
Don't say 50,000 people, it's 50,000 pigs, and those who will kill it are soft.
What's more, these remnants of Nanshu are not pigs, on the contrary, they are still Shu people born and raised in the southwest, fighting in this southwest native where mountains are everywhere, as long as they are willing to abandon the city and enter the mountains, the Pingnan army really has no way to take them.
Take 10,000 steps back and say, even if Mu Ying's brain is pumped and she is willing to fight hard with the Pingnan Army, the 50,000 Shu people will defeat the 30,000 Pingnan Army, and they will also give a lot of wounded to the Pingnan Army!
Now, because of a Li Xin in Fucheng, the Pingnan army has been cut in two, if the Pingnan army in this section of Jincheng is greatly injured and gives Li Xin the opportunity to take Mianzhu, then this battle will not have to be fought, Li Shen himself tied himself up and escorted to the capital, maybe he can die a little more happily.
The reason is such a reason, and the cruel words must be said.
When the soldier who reported the news heard these encouraging words, his spirit was greatly shaken, and he immediately stood up and ran away.
Leaving General Li Shen and General Li alone, he stood on the tower of Jincheng alone, looking at the direction of Fuxian in a daze.
General Zhu Guo, who had been strategizing in the past, was a little stunned by Li Xin's chaotic punch at this time.
………………
At the same time, near Hanzhou City, Mu Ying, who was wearing the old Nanshu Xuanjia, was riding on a big horse and was confronting Zhang Kai, the general of the Pingnan Army.
This general, who looks to be in his forties, has two beards, and his face can vaguely see the handsome appearance of his youth.
He also sat on a big horse, looked fiercely at the black-faced young man in front of him, and shouted in a deep voice.
"According to the general's order, all the people in Hanzhou City are not allowed to act rashly, and those who violate the order will be killed!"
Mu Ying, who was riding on a jujube red horse, has now been named the general of Nanshu by the "His Royal Highness" Li Xingyi, and the black-faced General Mu, who had just become a general, raised his head slightly and showed disdain.
"Lao Tzu is also a general, why listen to your bullshit general?"
"For the sake of everyone's thirty years of peace and quiet, Lao Tzu will inform you in advance now, three days later, Lao Tzu will go out of Hanzhou on business, if you block the road again at that time, don't blame Lao Tzu for the long knife in his hand stained with blood!"
General Mu had an arrogant attitude.
In fact, he was making trouble at this time, not to leave Hanzhou directly, he was to relieve some pressure on Li Xin, who was attacking Mianzhu, and at the same time create some false and real illusions.
That's why he came up with this statement three days later.
Of course, there is no way for his side to confront the Pingnan army head-on, and if Mianzhu's side fails to attract the attention of most of the Pingnan army after three days, there will be another three days.
This was discussed by Li Xin and Mu Ying in advance, and before laying down Mianzhu, try to avoid a head-on collision with the Pingnan Army.
Sitting on the big horse, General Zhang's face was gloomy.
He shouted at Mu Ying: "More than ten years ago, it wasn't for the mercy of my general's subordinates, you remnants of the country would have been wiped out a long time ago, and you have survived under the general's hands until now, and this is how you repay my general!" ”
"Fuck your kindness!"
Mu Ying spat heavily.
"It's not us Shu people, you bullshit Pingnanhou Mansion, I'm afraid that the family was ruined thirty years ago, everyone uses each other, who will be favored by you?"
