The furious King Fu was beyond everyone's expectations, and he quickly calmed down, and did not attack him as Gao Jie imagined. This made everyone breathe a sigh of relief and secretly rejoice!

Gao Jie didn't dare to delay for a moment, he hurriedly said: "The prince is angry, in fact, it is not a bad thing for us to let the princes fight alone. ”

Zhu Gaosong raised his eyes to look at Gao Jie and said coldly: "What is the reason for it?" ”

Gao Jie replied: "None of the princes obey anyone, it is extremely difficult for them to obey the command of others, even if they can finally reluctantly set some rules, this binding force should be extremely limited, rather than everyone arguing all day long, it is better to fight separately and save infighting." ”

This explanation obviously couldn't make Zhu Gaosong relieved, and he still had a gloomy face: "Of course, fighting separately can greatly avoid the occurrence of infighting, but don't forget, how can the 400,000 army scattered in the sand be a strong opponent of the Dongjiang Army." ”

In the final analysis, Zhu Gaosong still couldn't let go of his face in his heart, he felt that if everyone was allowed to fight on their own, his status as the leader would naturally not be guaranteed. And this means that so many of his previous efforts will be in vain, and he will be made fun of by others.

Seeing that Zhu Gaosong really calmed down, Gao Jie was not as nervous as before, he smiled and said: "Actually, it is not, the prince might as well think about it, now our strength can only be regarded as medium among many princes." There must be at least six or seven princes who are more powerful than us, and if we unite to fight with the Dongjiang army, these princes who are stronger than us will definitely not and will not suffer losses. ”

Zhu Gaosong was stunned for a moment, silent for a long time, and then he suddenly sighed and said, "Maybe you have a point." ”

Thinking about it seriously, Zhu Gaosong also realized that what Gao Jie said was by no means alarmist, but fact. Not to mention the current situation, he already felt that the other vassal kings did not like themselves at all, at most they were only perfunctory on the surface.

Looking at Zhu Gaosong, who was full of loss, Gao Jie said with a chuckle at this time: "The prince doesn't need to despise himself, we are not without hope of winning." ”

Zhu Gaosong's eyes suddenly lit up, and he asked urgently, "Do you have a way?" ”

Gao Jie smiled and said: "My subordinates have a plan, if it can go smoothly, we can reap the benefits of the fisherman." ”

"Speak quickly!" King Fu suddenly came to the spirit.

"There is a gap between our strength and others now, so we should separate others so that we can have the opportunity to benefit from it." Gao Jie smiled and nodded at King Fu.

The latter pondered for a moment, and a smile gradually appeared on his face: "This king understands, hahaha...... This plan is brilliant, according to your plan, everyone hurry up. ”

The big tent, which was still cloudy just now, has begun to be filled with joy. King Fu agreed to Gao Jie's proposal and began to discuss the details with them, after which he began to act in the evening of the same day.

Accompanied by Gao Jie, King Fu went to inform the other vassal kings that he was going to break away from the alliance, and then whether the others agreed or disagreed, King Fu went his own way. However, Liu Zeqing and the three of them have already begun to gather 30,000 soldiers and horses, and they can set off immediately after waiting for the return of King Fu.

In the end, King Fu led his 30,000 subordinates to leave in the evening and disappeared into the vast night. This move made the other vassal kings puzzled, after all, it was King Fu himself who announced Chongzhen's holy decree, and it was under his call that the other vassal kings responded one after another.

No one thought that seeing that the army had gathered enough people to compete with the Dongjiang army at any time. King Fu left inexplicably at this critical juncture, no one understood what was going on, and all kinds of suspicions spread among the army that night.

Soon after, some vassal kings began to lead their troops and horses away like King Fu, and some people took the lead, and some people immediately followed. Soon, the effect of leaving spread among the army, and after dawn the next day, the assembly place of the army of more than 400,000 became a wasteland, and no soldiers and horses were to be seen.

Although the Fu Wang people were gone, he still sent many spies to keep an eye on the movements of the army, and when he learned that the southern army had left as he expected, Fu Wang laughed loudly, and was very unhappy for a while.

Seeing that King Fu had begun to get carried away, Gao Jie hurriedly poured cold water on him: "Lord Wang, our first step plan has been completed, and the second step plan should be carried out next." Let those who have dispersed fight with the Dongjiang Army, and we will have a chance to benefit from it. ”

Zhu Gaosong will be convinced of Gao Jie, he waved his hand very boldly, and said heroically: "Gao Jie, the next thing will be arranged by you, and this king can trust you." ”

Gao Jie was overjoyed, obviously, this is King Fu's great trust in him, if King Fu is fortunate enough to ascend the throne as the emperor in the future, then he will ascend to heaven in the second half of his life. Thinking of this, Gao Jie suddenly became excited, and hurriedly assured Zhu Gaosong that he would do his best to get things done.

After receiving Zhu Gaosong's order, Gao Jie did not delay for a moment, and immediately left, and after discussing with the other three brothers, he and Liu Zeqing led 10,000 soldiers and horses to leave quietly.

The sudden change in the southern army made Mao Wenlong, who had been on guard, very puzzled. The plan he had originally thought of was also directly shelved because of this change and could not be continued.

Chen Jisheng was very distressed, because he ran out, he had the opportunity to fight with the enemy, but now he had to stop. Single-mindedly probing the scattered southern armies made him tired all day long, just to collect as much enemy information as possible.

Today, he still stayed in the barren mountain, waiting for the news from the Tanma sent out, and then he sorted it out a little and sent it to Mao Wenlong for reading. has lived such a boring day for nearly ten consecutive days, and Chen Jisheng is an idle person, so he directly left the matter of handling official affairs to Xu Fuzuo to deal with. He himself took a few guards in the morning to patrol the mountains, and by the way, he picked up some game for everyone to eat in the evening.

A fast horse came straight into the barren mountain, and a secret post tried to intercept it, but found that it was a messenger, so he recaptured his hiding place. Chen Jisheng, who was hunting in the mountains, was soon notified and hurried back to the station.

Xu Fuzuo had already asked the messenger for the news, and when Chen Jisheng came back, he said bluntly: "Big brother, a messenger just came to report that he found King Fu's soldiers and horses in Leshan, ten miles away. ”

"Really, did you look away?" Chen Jisheng was overjoyed immediately.

"It's not wrong, the general who led the troops is that Gao Jie, and they have 10,000 soldiers and horses, it seems that they have a plan." Xu Fuju replied in the affirmative.
