"Politics is a transaction, and here, there is no warmth, no personal friendship, only naked interests. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 Of course, it has nothing to do with personal morality, standing on their own standpoint, everyone is right. Cheng Wuben smiled at Qin Feng and said.

Before this war related to the future of the Taiping Army was about to break out, Qin Feng had not been very at ease about the situation of the Qin State, it was a huge hidden danger, and if he didn't find out their attitude, Qin Feng really didn't dare to act rashly. You must know that now in Dengxian County, the Qi army is also silently waiting, as long as it fails, the Qi army will invade.

If that's the case, you'll be left with nothing. Therefore, without complete certainty, he was willing to give up like this. Now that Cheng Wuben is back, the news he brought back finally made him breathe a sigh of relief.

"Thank you for teaching me a good lesson!" Qin Feng sincerely said to Cheng Wu.

"No, you'll mature after all." Cheng Wuben said with a smile. "Actually, compared to Luo Yishui, you have done well enough. Luo Yishui is the real naïve one. Therefore, his failure is inevitable. ”

"What did it cost us?" Qin Feng asked.

"The Taiping Army doesn't have to pay anything!" Cheng Wuben said with a smile: "Because Kaiping County was originally in the hands of the Qin army, with our current strength, we can't take it back." ”

"As you said earlier, political transactions are not about personal friendship, let alone warmth, and you won't tell me that you have impressed them by your friendship with them, will you? It's not the Taiping Army that pays, so is there someone else who pays Luo? Qin Feng said lightly.

"General Qin is very smart, the price is paid by Da Chu, of course, Li Zhi also has to consider, if he really moves troops to fight the Taiping army, can the price he will pay be equal to his gain? If the loss is great, what good will it do him? Do you want Wu Jian to pick up the bargain? Cheng Wuben laughed.

"What did the State of Chu pay?" Qin Feng asked.

Cheng Wuben looked at Qin Feng with a smile: "General Qin, are you ready to repay this debt?" ”

Qin Feng shook his head categorically.

"That's it, since you are not prepared to pay it back, and you are not ready to admit it, then why is it necessary to know?" Cheng Wu Benyun is light and clear.

"Although I don't want to know, I also know that if you can make Li Zhi agree to give up Yongping County and stand idly by, the price paid by the Chu State is definitely not small, why do you want to help me like this?" Qin Feng stared at Cheng Wuben.

"Because you are our Da Chu's concubine, hahaha!" Cheng Wuben burst out laughing, and even the monk on the side couldn't help but laugh when he heard this.

Qin Fenghu raised his face and glared at Cheng Wuben, "Cheng Shuai, it's not funny at all. ”

"Well, it's not funny!" Cheng Wuben touched his thick beard and said, "Kill Wu Jian, Luo Yishui, so that you can take the Yue Kingdom, it will be helpful for our Great Chu." ”

"Aren't you afraid that I'll bite back when the time comes? You know, I hate Min Ruoying a lot. Qin Feng said coldly.

Cheng Wuben spread his hands and asked, "General Qin, let me ask you, if you control the Yue Kingdom, will you become the pawn of the Qi Kingdom?" ”

"Of course not!" Qin Feng said: "My life is up to me, how can I let others control me." ”

"That's right, but the current Yue Kingdom is the pawn of the Qi people, you control the Yue country, you will not become their pawn, with your temperament, you will even have to take back the territory that the Yue country once owned from the Qi country, that is to say, if you gain power, you will eventually turn against the Qi people. And that's what we want. Cheng Wuben seemed very frank, "But even if you control the Yue Kingdom, if you want to confront the Qi people, it is obviously an egg to touch a stone, and now the Qi people do not move you, because in Gaohu, they are still stuck with our Great Chu form, and they don't want to open another battlefield, because once you can't take it quickly, the Chu State will counterattack on a large scale, and the Qin people will not let go of this great opportunity, of course, they will also do it." And with the strength you are showing now, it is obviously impossible to defeat you quickly. ”

Qin Feng nodded slightly.

"I think the people of Qi must be looking forward to your defeat now, so that they will march in a big way and completely destroy you." Cheng Wuben said with a smile. "Since you can't fight the Qi people alone at that time, what else can you do but form an alliance with us? When the time comes, the alliance of Qin, Yue, Chu, and the Three Kingdoms will become successful again, which is a very good thing for our Great Chu. ”

"It sounds like you don't have much hope for Luo Liang to win!" Qin Feng Dao.

Cheng Wuben smiled bitterly, "I have been on the eastern border for twenty years, and I know the depth of the strength of the Qi people, Luo Liang did not take Gaohu at the first time, and we have already lost more than half of this battle, and now, I only hope that we can lose less, which is also the reason why our Great Chu is willing to pay the price to let the Qin State be a spectator in this battle." ”

"Very good, if you say that, I'm relieved, but Cheng Shuai, you have to understand something, one day, I will fight against Min Ruoying." Qin Feng Dao.

"I understand." Cheng Wuben smiled: "It doesn't matter, but when you really become the lord of the Yue country, you will find that personal feelings sometimes seem insignificant in front of national affairs, and what you carry will far exceed the hatred in your heart, so I am not worried about this." When it really comes time for you to confront His Majesty the Emperor, I estimate that there is only one possibility, either the Qi State is destroyed by the Chu State, or the Qi State is destroyed by you, but in my opinion, this is almost impossible in a short period of time. ”

"Nothing is impossible!" Qin Feng stood up and said. "Let's put these things aside for now, and let's fight the battle in front of us."

Cheng Weigao stood on top of the red city wall, looking at the fire battle sword flag that was gradually moving away, and his heart was mixed, and he didn't know what it was like. After Qin Feng had a long talk with him, he thought about it again and again, and finally decided to join in, in other words, he also betrayed the Yue Kingdom.

Because Qin Feng told him very calmly that his purpose was to replace Yue Guo.

Yue Guo is now full of holes and terminally ill, in Cheng Weigao's view, there is indeed no future, or a change of master can make Yue Guo a little better.

A new person has a new atmosphere, and if you change someone, maybe you can change the old look into a new one? He has been in Yongping for many years, and he really doesn't want Yongping to fall into the flames of war, and when the war is together, it will always be the people who suffer.

Luo Yishui sent troops to attack Yongping County, which was already intelligence several days ago. This made Cheng Weigao very nervous, not only because of Luo Yishui's prestige, but more importantly, he understood the current situation of Luo Yishui, Luo Yishui did not win the richer Zhongping, he could only aim at Yongping County, once Yongping County fell into his hands, it would be followed by heavy taxes and grain taxes, how could a mere Yongping County feed Luo Yishui's tens of thousands of troops, not to mention, Luo Yishui still had to fight with the emperor, and the silver money must be spent like flowing water, where did the money come from, of course, it was to exploit the people of Yongping County.

But the Taiping army is different, they have perfect logistics, with the rich Shayang County and Taiping City as the backing, and there is also a big money lord Chu people to follow behind to scatter money, and they control Yongping County, so that the people can still live a good life.

Yesterday, when he expressed to Qin Feng that he was willing to join the Taiping Army and still stay as the county guard of Yongping County, Qin Feng was very happy, it was a joy from the bottom of his heart, which made Cheng Weigao also very pleased, because this proved that he was not dispensable.

Next, Qin Feng talked to him about the reform in Shayang County, re-measuring land, clarifying taxes, reforming commercial taxes, canceling checkpoint taxes, opening up trade routes and other policies, which made Cheng Weigao even more pleasantly surprised. There are some things he wants to do but can't do, for example, when measuring the soil, he spreads it into acres, but now it is different, in front of the military prestige of the Taiping Army, no one will dare to jump out to oppose it, and more importantly, behind Qin Feng's series of policies, it is not to beat the original rich gentry to death, but to reopen a new way of wealth for them, which is a gentle change rather than a violent revolution.

This point is also more in line with Cheng Weigao's temperament, a drastic revolution will not only hurt others, but also hurt oneself.

When the army goes out, it's time for you to get moving and do something. He was not worried about the victory of the Taiping Army at all, because an army with strict military discipline would definitely be invincible, not to mention, these days, in addition to these mighty troops, he also saw a few big masters who had never seen a few in his life, Qin Feng needless to say, and the woman in black who had been silently by Qin Feng's side, there was Cheng Wuben, and the boy brother with a long scar on his face.

Seeing the last military flag disappear in his eyes, Cheng Weigao turned around and strode towards the yamen of the county government, when he wanted to make Qin Feng's army turn around victoriously, he saw a different Yongping County.

Jiang Shangyan's Baoqing battalion, Lu Feng's miners' battalion has been off for several days, and now it is Kitten's rock battalion that has left Yongping County with Qin Feng's pro-military battalion, while Chen Jialuo's tiger battalion is moving in the other direction, although the direction is the same, but it is closer to Kaiping County, although Li Zhi promised not to interfere in this war again, but everything must be careful, Chen Jialuo's task is to march towards Zhongping County on the one hand, and at the same time have to pay attention to the Qin army, once the Qin army has a change, Chen Jialuo will defend on the spot, and Qin Feng, He will also give up this war and retreat to Yeongpyeong-gun.

Of course, when the time comes, the wolf camp of the wild dogs he placed in Zhengyang County and the mountain shaking camp of Dazhu will also launch a fierce attack on Zhengyang County, forcing Wu Jian to return to the rescue of the army, but in this way, it is equivalent to helping Luo Yishui in disguise, and this battle is very likely to be a pot of porridge.
