Chapter 507: You're Not That Important

Longyou County, once in the Luo Yishui attack, led by an old woman led a group of filial sons and grandsons and a group of officers and soldiers who were forced to a dead end to create a miracle, 4,000 men and horses, withstood Luo Yishui's fierce attack for several days. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info Longyou battle, it can be said that Luo Yishui launched this rebellion that shocked the continent of the turning point, did not take Longyou, of course, it will not be able to seize Zhongping County, Luo Yishui's strategic plan is completely bankrupt. In desperation, he sent Chen Ci to attack Yongping County, and was given a blow to the head by the Taiping army, and the failure of two connections finally forced Luo Yishui to a dead end, which also caused the situation of being trapped in Tongzhou by the soldiers now.

The dilapidated Longyou county town has not been repaired, but now it is an important support point for the soldiers and horses of the Dayue Imperial Court, if Zhongping County is the collection point of the imperial court's strategic materials, then Longyou County is now the distribution point of all the materials transported to the front line. Once all the supplies have been brought here, they will be distributed to the troops.

If there is a problem in Zhongping County, the troops in the front can still rely on the materials transported to Longyou to survive for a few days, but if something happens to Longyou, the troops in front will immediately have a big problem.

Therefore, in Longyou, even if Wu Jian was eager to put every ounce of his strength into the battle of besieging Luo Yishui, here, he still left a 3,000-strong tiger army to protect the materials.

Three thousand tiger army, this is a strong force, in the eyes of the generals of the Taiping Army, it is more difficult to take Longyou than to take Zhongping County.

A huge convoy drove out of the city of Zhongping County, hundreds of taels of flatbed trucks, all kinds of supplies were readily available, of course, the army protecting these materials and the people who escorted them were all replaced.

Zhang Ning's face was defeated, he shrank in the corner of the carriage, his hands were on his shoulders, and his head was buried deep between his knees.

Of course, it was not only the Zhongping County City that was captured by the Taiping army, but more importantly, His Majesty the Emperor's previous plan was fundamentally wrong. The Qin army did not attack the Taiping army at all, and the tiger battalion, which was rumored to have been completely defeated by the Qin army, appeared alive in front of him last night, and when he saw the tiger battalion, Zhang Ning, who was also calculating and proficient in intrigue and trickery, completely understood that His Majesty the Emperor had let Qin Feng and Li Zhi calculate.

In this way, it is not Luo Yishui who is surrounded, but His Majesty the Emperor.

Qin Feng's Taiping army, the army of the Qin people, and Luo Yishui, who is now trapped in Tongzhou, will become an iron triangle that will completely squeeze His Majesty the Emperor on the small territory of Tongzhou until he finally suffocates to death.

He and the emperor are grasshoppers on the same line, and when the emperor is finished, his Zhang clan is finished.

The old lady Liu, who was sitting opposite him, looked at each other with a smile, the carriage swayed, swayed, swayed, and squeaked, and the sound of squeaking was particularly clear in the silent carriage.

I don't know how long it has been, Old Lady Liu reached out and patted Zhang Ning's shoulder: "Lord Zuo Xiang, don't be so old, let's have a good chat." Before, I couldn't climb high, but now, I should be qualified to talk to you! ”

"What do we have to talk about?" Zhang Ning raised his head, his face as pale as a dead man.

"Zhang Xiang, you can't do it in this state!" Old lady Liu said: "Everyone can see that you have a problem." ”

"What else do you want from me?" Zhang Ning said. "You want me to come with you to Longyou, didn't I come?"

Old lady Liu looked up to the sky and snorted, "Zhang Xiang, let's talk about something else first." You are not an ordinary person, in the current situation, how much hope do you think your Emperor Majesty still has to turn the tables? ”

Zhang Ning was silent for a moment and said, "Unless there is a miracle, there is no possibility of turning the tables." ”

"It seems that Zhang Xiang is still very clear in his heart, if Wu Jian fails, do you think the current crown prince Wu Jing will be able to support the overall situation?" Old lady Liu then asked.

"How is that possible?" Zhang Ning smiled bitterly: "The 50,000 tiger army at the bottom of the box at the end of the imperial court has already appeared here, once these 50,000 tiger army is wiped out, with the remaining three melons and two dates in Yuejing, what can they do to resist the attack of the rebels?" Again, now the undercurrents in the country are already turbulent, but because Luo Yishui is in a predicament and failure is imminent, those underwater undercurrents seem to be very calm, once His Majesty the Emperor is wrecked, the country will be over! ”

"Zhang Xiang and His Majesty the Emperor are melons on a vine, His Majesty the Emperor is finished, you are also finished, right?" Old lady Liu spread her hands and said.

"Not bad." Zhang Ning admitted frankly.

"The Luo family, the souls of hundreds of people, are wailing in the Luo water, maybe they have poked their heads out of the water at this moment, staring at the guillotine, to see when your Zhang family will be escorted, right?" Old lady Liu said lightly.

Zhang Ning shuddered, "Becoming a king and defeating a villain, but if it is so, if there is really that day, there is nothing to complain about." ”

"Zhang Xiang is calm, but as far as I know, Zhang Xiang's family is also hundreds of people, I don't know which people, is there also Zhang Xiang so open-minded and calmly going to death?"

Zhang Ning's face was miserable, and faces flashed in his mind, some with gray hair, some waiting to be fed, old, immature, laughing, crying, his hands clenched involuntarily, and the green tendons on his hands were exposed.

Old lady Liu, who had been staring at him, said lightly: "Actually, we have given you a way to live, whether you can catch it or not, it's up to you, seize this opportunity, not only do you not have to die, your family can also survive, although you can no longer enjoy the glory and wealth, but after all, you are alive, right?" ”

"You don't have to lie to me, Luo Yishui is willing to let me go, you conspired with Luo Yishui to trap us, Luo Yishui hates me to the bone, he Luo is all over the house and killed, if the emperor is the person he ranks first to kill, then I will definitely be the second." Zhang Ning said.

"Who said we conspired with Luo Yishui?" Old Lady Liu sneered: "Do you think that we have wiped out Chen Ci's 20,000 subordinates in Yongping County, is it also fake? No, that's real. The Yue Kingdom only needs one master, that is, General Qin Fengqin, and the Yue Kingdom only needs one army, that is, the Taiping Army. ”

Listening to Old Lady Liu's words, Zhang Ning was a little dumbfounded, "If that's the case, how can Luo Yishui give up?" ”

"What if you don't do it well? The form is stronger than the people, he doesn't want the jade to be burned, and the tens of thousands of his soldiers will be wiped out in Tongzhou, so he must agree to our conditions. Let me tell you the truth, after this battle, Luo Yishui will leave, and his subordinates will all surrender to the Taiping army. ”

"And what did he get? Will he do that? ”

"Why not?" Old Lady Liu smiled: "At least, his biggest enemy will die in front of him, he not only avenged the blood revenge, but also let the tens of thousands of brothers who rebelled with him without hesitation have a good home." This is already the best ending for him. ”

Zhang Ning sighed, Old Lady Liu is right, Luo Yishui is at least not nothing.

"And there's one thing, you're wrong. When Luo Yishui was negotiating with General Qin, there was only one person he wanted to kill, that was Wu Jian, as for you, maybe he forgot, maybe he didn't bother to kill you at all, you were just a knife under Wu Jian, kill Wu Jian, you can't die or not, it's not in his heart at all. So, you don't have to think of yourself as important. It is precisely because of this that we can also open this opening and promise to let you survive, if Luo Yishui really wants to kill you, it will not be you who is sitting in this carriage today, but Jin Dazhong, the effect may not be as good as you, but it can still be done. ”

Listening to Old Lady Liu's slightly sarcastic words, Zhang Ning's face was red and white, and his face was uncertain, a person like him may not be afraid of death, but what he is most afraid of is the contempt and ignorance of others, and now, Old Lady Liu is simply a naked slap in the face.

There were ups and downs in my heart, both anger and some relief, after all, there was hope for life, and it was not just my own life, but the whole clan, hundreds of lives.

"How can I believe what you say?" He had some expectations, but also some doubts.

"Zhang Xiang, to put it mildly, even Luo Yishui doesn't care about the people he wants to kill, and our General Qin doesn't care even more." Old lady Liu said sharply. "Speaking of which, although you are good at calculations and full of intrigue and trickery, after all, you are just a tool that Wu Jian has cultivated to deal with the Luo family, specifically your Zhang family, there is not much strength, your strength and power come from the emperor's trust and support, if the skin does not exist, Mao will be attached? Without the infusion of living water, you can only be a pool of stagnant water, even if you still have more intrigues and tricks, but without this platform, how can you carry it out? Therefore, you can put a hundred and twenty hearts, as long as you are obedient and obedient, there is no problem at all in saving your life, if you can go further and do more things for General Qin, the ending may be better. ”

Zhang Ning lowered his head, was silent for a long time, and finally raised his head, "What should I do?" ”

"The most important thing at the moment is, of course, to take Longyou County, where to take it, and hit the dying Wu Jian with another stick on the head. It can speed up his death, so ah, Zhang Xiang, cheer up, shake up, take out the majesty of your left minister, Longyou County has three thousand tiger army, we don't want to fight with them, although we are not afraid of hard fighting, but we can reduce some losses, why not? You're right? ”

"Well, I promised you, I hope you will keep your word." Zhang Ning's voice trembled a little, of course he knew that his decision was equivalent to pushing hard behind Emperor Wu Jian, who had already fallen off the cliff with half a foot.

"Very good, I know that Zhang Xiang is a person who understands, and he is a handsome person who knows the times, no one will laugh at you, of course, after this incident, I think Zhang Xiang will also be incognito, and it doesn't matter how others scold you." Old lady Liu said with satisfaction. (To be continued.) )
