Even deeper, the candles in the back garden of Tancheng Dutingyi are burning, the weather is not cold, in the pond, on the garden trees, the cicadas are chirping, full of vitality, who would have thought that the dignified Jianghuai Governor would appear in the base camp of the bandits in Tancheng.

"Zuo Protector, you withdrew from the narrow bridge, and you also saw that your own situation was not good," Yue Lengqiu did not have the consciousness of being in the enemy camp, he sat calmly in front of the table, poured wine and drank by himself, Wang Zheng and another attendant all got up and stood behind him, "Huaidong made Lin Jian lead a heavy army to Suining, and I led the Huai Army to Tun Xuzhou Surabaya Hedong, Linyi, Shuyang, Shukou, all have elite cantonments, dare to ask Zuo Hujun is in Tancheng, surrounded by heavy siege, how to fight for a way to live for yourself?" ”

"Only after the peace negotiation can the Changhuai army withdraw from Xuzhou and barely gain a foothold in the east of the Surabaya River. If you want to fight, you must first ask the Changhuai army if it can block the attack of my Tianyuan and Huangjue's two righteous armies? "Chen Hansan is not a bluffing three-year-old child, Yue Lengqiu can appear in Tancheng, he must have a plan, how can he bluff Yue Lengqiu with a few words?

After the spring of last year, when the bandits of the counties met in Fangling, Liu An'er called himself the king of Huangjue, and Liu An'er's army called himself Huangjue's righteous teacher.

Yue Lengqiu smiled lightly and said, "Although Liu An'er has many soldiers and horses, he can't cross Surabaya, how can he attack our army with your troops?" But there's no point in saying this, I'm here in person to give you a fortune, not to talk to you......"

"Who is rich, tell me about it?" Chen Hansan asked quietly.

"There is only one person in Xuzhou, and if you give it to Liu An'er, you won't have your share," Yue Lengqiu said, "But I prefer you to the Left Protector, and I am willing to seek it for you." ”

"Yue Du, when I was a three-year-old, how can I be?" Chen Hansan sneered, "Although Han San is a reckless man, he has heard the story of two peaches killing three soldiers. The righteous teacher is divided, who will profit in the end? ”

"The Left Protector is very wrong," Yue Lengqiu said with a smile, "The Left Protector has contributed to Liu An'er's efforts, has Liu An'er ever regarded you as a descendant?" Lin Tie led his troops to rush left and right in Huaisi, and you were slow to lead your troops, and it was not a mistake to fight, but Liu An'er may not be suspicious of you. I would like to ask the Left Protector, the court promised Liu An'er to cut the land of the Four Prefectures to him, how many counties can you get for the Left Protector? ”

"......" Chen Hansan was silent, and Yue Lengqiu said that his heartache was right.

"If I plot with Liu An'er, do you think you can escape this catastrophe?" Yue Lengqiu asked again.

"Why didn't Governor Yue seek me with Liu An'er, but he wanted to personally take risks and pull me to seek Liu An'er?" Chen Hansan asked rhetorically.

"Liu An'er has a big plan, I can't give what he wants; The Left Protector was born and died, just seeking wealth and nobility, what the Left Protector wanted, I can give—this is one also," Yue Lengqiu said, "Liu An'er can't be used by me, but the Left Protector can be used by me, and the other is also!" ”

Ma Zhen and Chen Hansan, the two cronies, were both shocked and suspicious, watching Yue Lengqiu and Chen Hansan fighting there, they didn't slow down for a long time. Listening to the meaning of Yue Lengqiu's words, he actually came over to persuade Chen Hansan to kill Liu An'er. In addition to being frightened, I didn't know whether to interject or not, and I didn't know what to interject.

"I might as well tell you the bottom line of this recruitment," Yue Lengqiu saw Chen Hansan's eyes fluttering, took out the holy decree of the shaft handle from his arms, and said, "This is the special decree of the Holy Lord to allow me to do things cheaply in Xuzhou, I know that the Zuo Protector is proficient in literature and ink, you can take a look and see it......"

Chen Hansan hesitantly took the holy decree, he was only rough in pen and ink, and the language of the holy decree was very awkward, he called Ma Zhen to come over for him to refer to it.

Yue Lengqiu explained first on the side: "The imperial court has set up an envoy to Xuzhou, under the jurisdiction of Xuzhou, Pixian, Huaiyang, Suining, Suyu and other seven counties and one state, set up a vassal commander, and compile and select 20,000 fixed salaries for the exiled army. If the talks can't be reached, Lu Guogong will be summoned to lead the army south and attack it together. Before this incident, Lu Guogong was resting in Jinan and did not move forward, but Liu An'er was greedy and wanted to cut the land of the four prefectures, do you think Lu Guogong would stand by again? I don't come here, Liu An'er accepts Zhao'an according to this condition, I want to ask how many counties can the left guard army occupy among the seven counties and one state, and the fixed salary of 20,000 soldiers and horses, can the left guard army account for one percent or two percent? ”

"......" Chen Hansan was shocked, and he didn't know what to say for a while.

Wang Zheng, who was standing behind Yue Lengqiu, saw Chen Hansan like this, and the three cronies who Chen Hansan stayed behind to participate in the secret affairs did not refute it silently, and his expression was quite moved, and he knew that this matter had become the majority.

"How can I trust you?" Chen Hansan asked this with difficulty.

"Haha," Yue Lengqiu smiled and said, "I can come to Tancheng, but the Zuo Protector doesn't dare to believe me?" ”

"Governor Yue, you are resourceful and courageous, Han San doesn't dare to compare." Chen Hansan was not agitated and said.

"You're just worried that I'll free up my hands to clean you up in the end," Yue Lengqiu smiled and asked rhetorically, "May I ask Zuo Protector, what's in it for me?" Could it be that I am reluctant to give away the wealth of a Xuzhou envoy? ”

Chen Hansan and Ma Zhen and other cronies looked at each other hesitantly, not knowing if they could believe Yue Lengqiu's words.

If Yue Lengqiu was rejected, Liu An'er finally accepted Zhao'an according to the conditions given by the imperial court, and divided seven counties and one state, and could only keep 20,000 elites to eat soldiers' salaries. According to the proportion, he can only keep a maximum of 2,000 elite soldiers on his side, and in the end, I am afraid that he will not even be able to get a county.

If he conspired with Yue Lengqiu and killed Liu An'er, he would not only be able to sit on the throne of Xuzhou's envoy and become the lord of seven counties and one state, but the most important thing was to protect the 20,000 soldiers and horses under his command from being dismissed.

Chen Hansan had to admit that the temptation was too great.

Everything in this world is fake, but it is true to have soldiers in your hands.

Chen Hansan also knew in his heart that even if the imperial court promised to assign the four prefectures and twenty-one counties to Liu An'er, it would not be able to raise 400,000 soldiers and horses. If the soldiers are to be abolished, it is not difficult to imagine who Liu An'er will keep and who will be cut.

Of course, there is also a third way to go, which is to capture Yue Lengqiu and kill him, wave his army to the west, first break the Changhuai army stationed on the east bank of Surabaya, continue to rebel, and never look back. Thinking about it, Liu An'er can't blame him for sabotaging Zhao'an, Yue Lengqiu originally wanted to harm Liu An'er.

However, Yue Lengqiu can come to Tancheng in person in danger, and there must be arrangements for the Changhuai army. Besides, what are they rebelling for, aren't they just fighting for wealth? How can there be a reason to seek the near and far?

"The Huaidong system has made Lin Jian and I have always been at odds, presumably the left guard has heard of it?" Yue Lengqiu asked.

"I've heard a little." Chen Hansan said.

"In July, Lin Tie broke through the Yishui camp, the Suyu Hedong camp, and then conquered Suining, and was able to solve the siege of Xuzhou without dissolving, and the left guard thought that Lin Tie was the person I could conspire with?" Yue Lengqiu asked.

Chen Hansan smiled but did not speak.

Yue Lengqiu continued: "Since the Jiangdong Left Army defended Huai, it has taken the opportunity to expand its power, and the number of soldiers and horses has exceeded 20,000. I think I am the dignified governor of Jianghuai, who has fought hard for months, lost soldiers and generals, and can command only 20,000 soldiers and horses. I came to conspire with Liu An'er with the Left Protector Army, hoping that the Left Protector Army could be used by me, and it was too late to defend you, so how could it be unfavorable to you? The imperial court has been forced to formally agree to Lin Tie to guard Huaidong, so I tried my best to ensure that you came to sit in the seat of the Xuzhou envoy, the intention of this, do you want me to make it clearer? ”

"......" Chen Hansan hesitated but did not answer.

"I don't know what kind of hatred Lin Jian has with you, but Lin Jian let Sun Zhuang's troops cross Surabaya and blocked your troops to the east of the Surabaya River. The matter of peace and discussion, although I am presiding over it in the open, but secretly it is promoted by Lin Tie, and you will not fail to investigate. Do you know that Lin Jian and Liu An'er have no secret conspiracy? ”

"He has several generals, and he is my former enemy." Chen Hansan said lightly, but cold sweat broke out on his back.

The two armies have been facing each other for so long, even if he hasn't met Zhou Pu, Qin Chengzu and others, his subordinate generals have also recognized Zhou Pu and Qin Chengzu. Back then, Cao Xiucai and the four ladies were robbed in Qingjiangpu and took refuge in Lin Tie, which was not unimaginable.

The feud back then was too deep, Qin Chengzu was the main general under Lin Lian's command, and Lin Lian was Qin Chengzu and other generals.

"How many days do you have to think about it for the left guard?" Yue Lengqiu said, "But if I leave Xuzhou for too long, I'm afraid Liu An'er will be suspicious!" I believe that the left guards will not be without Liu An'er's eyes, once this matter is leaked, not only is it not a good plan, but it will become a disaster! ”

Chen Hansan exchanged glances with Ma Zhen and other cronies, and after a while, he finally made up his mind and asked: "Liu An'er has hundreds of thousands of troops in the west of Surabaya, and Han San is from Yue Du's strategy, and there are only 20,000 weak brigades under his command, how can it be of great use?" ”

"Liu An'er has 100,000 troops on the west bank of Surabaya, but he is too greedy, most of the soldiers and horses have been attracted to Suining, Xuzhou only has 20,000 tired divisions, half of them are stationed in the Yunlong Mountain camp on the west bank of the Surabaya River, and half of them are stationed in Xuzhou City. If you pretend to agree to withdraw from Tancheng and cross Surabaya to the west from Xuzhou, Liu An'er will not suspect you, why can't a big thing be done? Yue Lengqiu asked.

Liu An'er's troops in Xuzhou may be more than 20,000, but they will never be much.

Chen Hansan is also a single, although he knows that there are many drawbacks and dangers in taking refuge with Yue Lengqiu at this time, and the key is to give Yue Lengqiu to suppress the Jiangdong Left Army, but if you want to fight for wealth and nobility, how can you be afraid of the east and the west? After making up his mind, he no longer hesitated, pushed the table and walked to the front of the hall, bowed down to Yue Lengqiu, and called: "Meng Yue Governor will not abandon each other, Han San is willing to follow Yue Governor, make a fortune, and never betray ......"

Ma Zhen and Chen Hansan, two cronies, also knelt down together.

"Chen Zhizhi envoy, from now on, you and I will be ministers in the same palace, Yue Mou can't afford such a big gift," Governor Yue hurriedly walked out, helped Chen Hansan up, and said, "As long as you serve the court loyally, the wealth of the marquis is as easy as a snap." ”

Whether to seal the marquis or not, Chen Hansan can't take care of it, the key now is to win the territory and keep the 20,000 soldiers and horses under his command.

Yue Lengqiu also deliberately did not mention Chen Hansan's previous bad deeds. In his opinion, Chen Hansan rebelled again this time, and there was no other way out, even if he had the mind of supporting troops in Xuzhou to respect himself, it would be difficult to become a big trouble for the imperial court, and he could just use it to suppress Lin Bin, and secretly said in his heart: Donghai Fox, Donghai Fox, you have tried your best to raise your own respect, and someone Yue will fulfill you!
