Cai Palace, in the imperial study, when the anger in the hearts of Xiong Wu and Han Yanxi had not been eliminated, and the atmosphere was still a little tense, Wu Yue, Cai and Chu formed an independent army.

For a while, the kings of the three kingdoms of Yuechu and Cai were quiet, and they all thought deeply.

Today, Wu Yue, Cai and Chu are in alliance with the kings of the four kingdoms, and Zhao Yanyu took the opportunity to mention the formation of an independent army to block Yan Qi on the front line, and he has his own ideas.

What King Cai Yue Chu thinks, he doesn't care, and he can't care, however, he must think about the future of Wu.

The state of Chu is strong, Xiong Wu is the leader of the alliance of the southern princes, relying on the strong national strength of the Chu state, Xiong Wu is arrogant and arrogant, and does not take the kings of the southern countries in his eyes.

During the Northern Expedition, he framed the southern princes once in the Yan Kingdom. Today, he wants to kill Cai Jun in the Cai Palace. Xiong Wu's all kinds of arrogant actions, in the future, when he cooperates with Da Chu, he has a feeling of seeking skin with the tiger!

I will never easily believe Xiong Wu, and strive to avoid the tragedy of the Northern Expedition, again, befall Wu Guo!

The Wu army went to the north twice and was severely damaged by the Yan army twice, although he tried his best to weaken the damage caused by the defeat in the north and the state of Wu, but he could not innocently lose more elite soldiers.

Therefore, it is proposed to select strong men among the four countries, absorb heroes, and form a legion under the joint control of the four countries, and the command of the independent legion, which is beyond the four countries!

In this way, even if Emperor Chu was ambitious and had the idea of harming Wu, he had to consider the great harm brought by the dissolution of the Four-Power Alliance.

Hearing this, Chu Emperor Xiong Wu, Yue Jun Han Yanxi, and Cai Jun Cao Rong looked at each other.

After about half a pillar of incense, Cao Rong stepped forward, nodded heavily, and said categorically: "Wu Jun's proposal is good, recruiting troops in the four countries, it is best to be trained by the disciples of the soldiers, this is the fairest treatment of the four countries, outsiders do not want to control the army of the four countries, which can ensure the peace of the southern countries." ”

Anyway. Cao Rong turned to look at Han Yanxi, who looked hesitant, and asked with a smile: "Yue Jun, do you have any ideas, don't you support Wu Jun's proposal?" ”

At this moment, Cao Rong probably guessed Zhao Yanyu's intention to form an independent army, which could enhance the overall strength of the south without harming the existing military strength of the southern countries.

In addition, there is an independent army to resist the southward movement of the Yan army, and the four kingdoms of Wu, Yue, Cai, and Chu will have a stable political environment, and they can take the opportunity to restore their national strength.

Of course, this move also weakened the prestige of the Chu State among the four countries, and the advantages outweighed the disadvantages, so he naturally welcomed it!

When Han Yanxi heard this, he found that Xiongwu, Cao Rong, and Zhao Yanyu were all focused on themselves, and they couldn't help but raise their eyelids and look at Xiongwu.

Xiong Wu's face was gloomy, without the slightest smile, his vicious eyes looked at Cao Rong and Zhao Yanyu from time to time!

Han Yanxi naturally knew what benefits the formation of a new legion would bring to the south and to the country.

However, Xiong Wu was present and directly agreed to form an independent legion, as if Wu Yue and Cai were interested in targeting the Chu State, he was worried that Xiong Wu would find an opportunity to retaliate!

However, if you don't agree, you will be too disappointed by Zhao Yanyu's good proposal.

After being silent for a long time, Han Yanxi said: "If I can successfully recruit troops in the four countries, I will naturally agree." However, when the four countries form a coalition, where does the food and grass come from, and the four countries share it, or is it borne by one country alone? ”

"In this matter, the old man has already planned it, and the four countries will provide it in turn, and it will be replaced every three months, which is fair and safe." Zhao Yanyu took the trouble to explain, and said confidently with his beard.

He had planned in detail in advance, and discussed with Wang Zhengwen many times, and both sides felt that the formation of a new corps was very feasible. will take the opportunity to take the initiative to bring it up.

"Well, if you can resist Yan Qi going south without harming your own interests, I agree." The doubts in his heart were dispelled, and Han Yanxi said categorically.

For a while, in the imperial study, there were three kings who agreed with Zhao Yanyu's proposal, which made Xiong Wu's demeanor very embarrassing!

Looking at Zhao Yanyu, he had a feeling of being calculated, he felt that the southern princes were becoming more and more distracted, and began to guard against the Chu State everywhere.

Today, breaking into the Cai Palace, he was forced to return the land to the Cai Kingdom. At this moment, Zhao Yanyu proposed the alliance of the four countries to form an independent legion, ostensibly resisting the southward movement of Yan Cai, but it was clearly aimed at the Chu State and himself!

However, Cao Rong, Han Yanxi, and Zhao Yanyu agreed to form an independent legion, which put him in a dilemma.

Either they were forced to agree to the demands of the kings of the Three Kingdoms, or they refused the demands of the Three Kingdoms, and let the Three Kingdoms form their own independent legions, and the Chu State was excluded!

Once the second option is chosen, next, Wu Yuecai will form a new army, exclude Da Chu, attack Da Chu if you advance, and defend the Yan army if you retreat, and the prestige of Da Chu in the southern countries will be greatly reduced!

After some careful consideration, Xiong Wu said helplessly: "In this matter, the Chu State participates, and I will send someone to the Tibetan Soldier Valley to discuss with the soldier master!" ”

The south is weak, there are some things, he has no choice but to do so, not to mention that the Three Kingdoms are only aimed at Great Chu, and have not hurt the interests of Chu, for the rise of Chu, he can only choose to forbear for the time being!

Moreover, the relationship between Great Chu and the Tibetan Soldier Valley is not shallow, and he has a deep personal relationship with the soldier master, as long as the Tibetan Soldier Valley sends a commander close to the Great Chu, the Chu State controls the new army, but it can seriously threaten Wu Yue Cai.

……………………

The alliance of the four countries in the south, and the Yan country in the north are also ready to move!

When Xiong Wu and the four of them discussed how to fight against Yan Cai, they led their army to the four cities along the river.

After more than ten days of traveling, Lin Feng, under the protection of Cao Aman and Luo Da, fought for thousands of miles, and finally arrived safely in Yanjing City.

After wandering outside for several months, returning to Yanjing, Lin Feng's whole person became relaxed.

After a two-day break, I began to deal with the squeezing twists and turns.

At the same time, the generals of the garrison in various fortresses in Dayan went to Yanjing from the garrison, and within more than ten days, according to the distance from Yanjing City, many generals arrived in Yanjing City after taking the lead.

For a time, the fierce generals in Yanjing City were like clouds, the masters were like forests, and the air was filled with the smell of blood and killing.

After returning from the guards from all over the country, the people of Yanjing City gradually realized that perhaps, soon the Yan Kingdom will set off a military front!

However, the people of Yanjing City have long been accustomed to the murderous atmosphere in the capital.

However, Jian Ye and Liu Zhuoya, who had just arrived in Yanjing City from the Song Kingdom, were very uncomfortable with the atmosphere full of war in the city.

The Yan army mobilized to fight, and some vassal states suffered, but fortunately it was not the Song State.

The empress of the Song Kingdom, the most trusted advisor, arrived in Yanjing City, and the two of them arrived in Yanjing City at the same time, as well as the news that 300 warships swam into the Yandong Sea.

This time he fought against Chen Guo and achieved good results, and the territory of Song State expanded rapidly, and Lin Shuying never forgot the agreement with Lin Feng.

In the Yan Palace, Lin Feng got the news, and while he was happy, he was puzzled, Lin Shuying did not break his promise, and his performance made him very surprised!

Obtaining three hundred warships also exceeded Lin Feng's expectations.

However, what surprised him even more was that Jian Ye and Liu Zhuoya had arrived in Yan Kingdom!

Both of them are very good advisers, and they are deeply trusted by the empress, and they are in high positions and positions in the Song State, and their words and deeds can cause huge repercussions in the northern and southern vassal states.

Never sent an envoy to a vassal state at the same time, why did they both arrive in Yanjing City!

When Liu Zhuoya sent a post to the Ministry of Rites, the next day, Lin Feng agreed to the two of them entering the palace.

He couldn't wait to find out what the empress had for sending Liu Zhuoya and Jian Ye into Yan!

Liu Zhuoya, Jian Ye was summoned, and both entered the palace, Wen Jishi and Situ accompanied Lin Feng.

When the two arrived at the Warm Pavilion, Wen Jishi and Situ had arrived earlier, and when they had not seen Lin Feng's trace, the four of them chatted in the Warm Pavilion.

Soon, Lin Feng walked into the warm pavilion from the east screen, and the four of them bowed down to Lin Feng, and under Lin Feng's signal, the four of them sat on the cushions on both sides of the warm pavilion.

This is not the first time that Liu Zhuoya and Jian Ye have entered the Warm Pavilion, nor is it the first time that the two have met Lin Feng. The two sides met again, and they both felt a strong fighting spirit in Lin Feng, and the atmosphere was slightly tense in the warm pavilion.

Lin Feng sat on the soft couch, picked up the teacup and tasted tea, but never spoke.

On the contrary, his eyes always paid attention to Liu Zhuoya and Jian Ye's expressions, and observed the two of them in detail as if they were appreciating a work of art.

For a long time, he didn't see any clues in Liu Zhuoya and the others, put down the teacup in his hand, and asked: "Lord Liu, Lord Jane, you two have come all the way to Yanjing, do you have any important matters to discuss?" ”

In his consciousness, even if Cai and Song, because they were previously in the waters of Dayan, Cai Jun's sailors injured the Song State's merchant ships, and the two sailors fought on the Yangtze River, there was no need for the Song State to send Liu Zhuoya and the two to Yanjing City.

In addition, he really couldn't think of anything important that had happened in Song Guo recently.

Hearing this, Liu Zhuoya hugged his fists and said: "Emperor Yan, I heard that Emperor Yan has turned the south upside down, and he has occupied the four southern cities on the edge of the Yangtze River.

This time, Liu and Master Jian came to Yanjing and naturally congratulated Emperor Yan.

In addition, the atmosphere in Yanjing City is tense, Emperor Yan is planning an expedition to the south, and we have specially sent warships to Great Yan to support Emperor Yan to go south.

This matter is not trivial, and the two of us naturally have to arrive in Yanjing in person? ”

"Really? If the warship is very important in Lord Liu's heart, at this moment, Lord Liu and Lord Jian should be in Yandong, not Yanjing! Lin Feng said with a smile, he didn't believe Liu Zhuoya's words, and said straight to the point: "Lord Liu, the Ming people don't say secret words, you and Lord Jian should have seen that I have summoned the generals stationed in the fortresses of Dayan to return to Beijing, and want to plan a war in the south, the time is urgent, and there are many military affairs, if you don't express your intentions, you might as well return to the Song Kingdom and return to the empress." ”

Listening to the sound, Jian Ye, who was sitting on the top of the left side, got up, walked slowly to the center of the warm pavilion, took out a letter from his sleeve, and sent it to Wen Jishi with a calm expression. reminded: "Emperor Yan, this is a letter from the empress to Emperor Yan, I hope Emperor Yan will open it personally!" ”

Wen Jishi took the letter, stood up, bowed down and walked to the dragon case to put it, put the letter on the dragon case, and returned to his seat.

With a puzzled expression and curious eyes, he looked at Jian Ye who was sitting opposite.

Yan Song was calm for a long time, for no reason, how could the empress write to the emperor, could it be that the two sides reached a consensus in private.

On the soft couch, Lin Feng looked serious, picked up the letter, and browsed it in detail, the letter had indeed not been opened yet.

He tore open the letter, took out the rice paper inside, opened it, and browsed it in detail!

At this moment, Lin Feng was also curious in his heart, and he couldn't guess what medicine Lin Shuying was in the gourd.

After sending Liu Zhuoya and Jian Ye to Yanjing City, what is the matter, can't the two sides put it on the table and say it directly?

However, he was not in a hurry, no matter what Lin Shuying wanted to express, he would definitely describe it all in the letter.

Holding the rice paper, Lin Feng browsed it in detail, took a long breath, revealed incomprehension and doubts on his face, and put away the letter,

Looking up at Liu Zhuoya and Jian Ye, who looked calm and leisurely and enjoyed tea, their thoughts were full of doubts, and asked: "Lord Liu, Lord Jian, what does the empress mean, the Song army's campaign against Chen State was very smooth, why did you suddenly give up the eastern part of Chen State and invite the Yan army to fight against Chen State, could it be that the Song Army went east to conquer Chen State and encountered obstacles?" ”

In Lin Shuying's letters, there are many contents, several of which are very important.

However, Lin Shuying said that the Song army wanted to evacuate the Chen State, and a large area of territory in the east of the Chen State could be handed over to the Yan State to fight in person!

Why did the empress give up the northeast of Chen Guo to Yan Guo, this is what he is most puzzled about.

The two sides of Yan and Song used to be territories, and they almost met each other. When the Eastern Expedition of the Song Kingdom went smoothly, how could Lin Shuying easily give up the six or seven counties in the south of the Chen State to the Yan State.

Could it be that the weasel gave the chicken a New Year's greeting, and he didn't have a good heart!

However, Jian Ye still had a calm attitude and said with a smile: "Emperor Yan, before coming to Yan Kingdom with Lord Liu, the empress specially reminded that after Emperor Yan browsed the letters, if Emperor Yan agreed to conquer Chen State, I hope that Emperor Yan will sell another 100,000 war horses to Song Kingdom?" ”

"Lord Jane, buying and selling war horses is a piece of cake, but in order to buy war horses, the Song State will not stop its eastward expansion and give up annexing the Chen State.

At present, the empress ceded part of the territory of Chen to Yan, which was not in line with the practice of the Song people. Lin Feng never believed in Lin Shuying, and personally ceded the eastern land of Chen Kingdom to Yan Kingdom.

What's more, the Song State ceded to the Yan State, and the current Yan army's attention began to focus on the south, and there was no time to conquer the Chen State.

At this time, Liu Zhuoya, who had not spoken for a long time, said: "Emperor Yan, Your Majesty needs to form his own army, and he urgently needs war horses, in order to show his sincerity, he will take the initiative to hand over the matter of the conquest of Chen State to Yan State, and there is absolutely no idea that is unfavorable to Yan State." ”

Raise your own army?

Lin Feng couldn't help but think about it, according to his understanding of the Song Kingdom and his understanding of Lin Shuying. At present, Lin Shuying has a lot of troops in his hands, not to mention anything else, the 200,000 iron cavalry trained by Li Mu alone is a powerful force.

Why do you still need to train your own army!

Could it be that something happened in the Song Kingdom, and Lin Shuying's power was threatened, so he suddenly stopped fighting against the Chen State, and instead chose to consolidate his own strength!

"Jian Ye, Liu Zhuoya, Song Dynasty Hall, someone is not good for the empress?" Lin Feng was a little anxious, and called Jian Ye and the two by name.

"Emperor Yan is too worried, no one dares to threaten the empress in the Song Kingdom!" Jian Ye said.

"Song Qi and Meng Kuo, they have the army in their hands and are responsible for the conquest of the Chen State. The Song army marched eastward and suddenly came to an abrupt end, which is worthy of my suspicion! Lin Feng said coldly!

"The Eastern Crusade stopped, it was really a battle between Chen and Song, it was too tragic, the Song army urgently needed to recuperate, and the empress stopped fighting!" Willow Burning Cliff Road!

Hearing this, Lin Feng waved his hand, without delving into it, if Liu Zhuoya and the two didn't tell the truth, he would send someone to find out. Said: "The Song State gave Da Yan 300 warships for free, if I remember correctly, according to the agreement, the Song State still owes Da Yan 200 warships.

Therefore, no matter why the Song State stopped fighting against the Chen State, as long as the Song State paid the money, Dayan would sell the war horse! ”
