(I rubbed it, I thought there was no monthly pass today, and I couldn't add more to forty-five chapters, but I didn't expect everyone to be so powerful all of a sudden.) In this case, although there are still more than ten minutes to finish today, Muzi still tries his best to add more chapters to the one that was driven out. Thank you for the monthly ticket support of me, book friend 080910200929442, Xiaofeilong sword, and olytis, thank you. ）

"General, do you really want to send troops to help Li Lingfu attack Duli Town?" On the sea returning to Wuhu Island from Qingnipu, Zhao Jiang couldn't help but say a word to Li Jing, who had been standing on the deck since he got on the boat. Zhao Jiang is a veteran, the battle of Cat Island, broke an arm, originally according to the regulations, he could only quit the team, was arranged to be a guard on the dock or workshop, or joined the city management team and the security team for the rest of his life.

However, Li Jing kept him by his side as a personal guard, and now he is the leader of the silver spear guard capital and also serves as Li Jing's personal attendant. This appreciation is not insignificant, and therefore, Zhao Jiang is full of feelings for Li Jing and Shamen Town. Following Li Jing's side, he saw farther than when he was scouting the capital before. He knew very well how much Li Jing didn't want to fight Duli Town. In addition to the high city of Duli Town, another reason is that when the general completely swept away Feng Zhang's power and completely occupied Da Xie Yan, he had already set his sights on the land of Ziqing Town farther west.

Shamen Town is now actively preparing for war according to the general's orders, and the officers and men of all battalions are stepping up their training, and the logistics are also making comprehensive preparations. Zhao Jiang could guess some reasons, the general was no longer satisfied with this corner of the sea, and was preparing to march on land. A time like this. He was absolutely unwilling to have another war in his backyard, where he had managed to achieve peace and stability.

Li Jing looked back. did not reply directly to Zhao Jiang's words. Instead, he asked rhetorically: "Zhao Jiang, you just follow your own ideas, you say, should we fight this battle now?" ”

"I don't think we should fight, Li Lingfu is now blinded by hatred. Duli Town and Qingnipu were originally a century-old feud, and the last time Li Lingfu proposed marriage to Wang Pu, it was not really to marry, but it was just to take advantage of the last big victory. wanted to force Wang Pu to marry a daughter, but he just wanted to insult Duli Town and Wang Pu once. Now Wang Pu put Li Lingfu on the other hand, deliberately promised to marry his daughter to the Li family first, but directly gave his daughter to you, the general, which is obviously killing two birds with one stone. Not only did he play Li Lingfu and fight back, but he also planted the seeds of suspicion and suspicion in our two families, intending to separate our two families. ”

Zhao Jiang used some of the ways of thinking he had learned since following Li Jing to analyze this matter in detail, but he also talked about the Tao.

"Wang Pu gave us all the compensation. That's because they all see that we are the biggest threat to the town. When we got the money, he didn't give Li Lingfu money. I think this is a deliberate act on their part, a temptation, and the town of Tori is testing our attitude. And now Wang Pu has forcibly accepted Li Lingfu's daughter-in-law, who was originally his daughter-in-law, as a concubine, and his father-in-law has married his daughter-in-law, giving Li Lingfu a big insult, I don't think Wang Pu is too arrogant, but they are deliberately stimulating Li Lingfu, there must be some conspiracy behind this. ”

"What do you think will be a conspiracy?" Li Jing was a little interested in Zhao Jiang's analysis and encouraged him to continue.

"The most direct thing is that I thought that Duli Town was tempting Li Lingfu, and they wanted to lure him into sending troops. Once Li Lingfu was stimulated to send troops to attack Duli Town, then the strength of Duli Town remained, Li Lingfu used to defend his house and was okay, if the whole army attacked Duli Town, he would definitely be defeated. And once the town of Duli is defeated, then we will lose a powerful ally to clamp down on the Duli system. Then the unfavorable situation of the great defeat in Duli Town can be reversed, and there is no need to worry about our two families being against them from time to time. This is a good move, split and hit, and break it one by one. ”

Li Jing nodded, Zhao Jiang has really made great progress, he usually only occasionally talks to them about some strategic and tactical things with these guards, and he has actually been able to analyze so many things by himself, which is really good.

"Why does the town of Naduli want to pay us compensation, this is a lot of money."

"To appease us, but also to paralyze us. With such a large sum of money, we naturally thought that there would be no other action in Duli Town. In this way, they will be able to deal with Qingnipu with all their might. ”

Li Jing chuckled: "According to what you mean, a series of actions after the defeat of Duli Town are all purposeful. He gives us money to paralyze us. didn't give Qingnipu money, and deliberately provoked them to lure them to attack. According to what you say, then we have to send troops to help Qingnipu, but your words reveal that you don't want to send troops, so do you mean that we want to send troops or not? ”

Zhao Jiang used his one-armed arm to make a commotion, and said with some embarrassment: "Tactically speaking, we should support Li Lingfu." But at the strategic level, we should not send troops. ”

"That's right, I actually know how to consider things from both tactical and strategic levels." Li Jing smiled.

Seeing that Li Jing was silent again, Zhao Jiang couldn't help but ask a little anxiously: "Does the general mean to send troops or not?" ”

"I mean, of course, both to send troops, but not to send troops."

"What do you mean by that?"

Li Jing sighed, he was really unwilling to send troops in his heart. But now he is unwilling to give up Qingnipu as an ally easily, and if Qingnipu loses, the situation in Liaohai will be reversed, which will also be extremely unfavorable to some of his long-term arrangements. So, he had to fight. But Li Jing didn't want to really fight Duli Town, because there was no chance of winning this battle. How could he squander the money he had saved so easily.

While in Qingnicheng, Li Jing finally agreed to send troops. However, he also put forward many requirements, saying that he had to make all kinds of preparations, let Li Lingfu pull allies, he himself would also pull allies, and said that he would solve Beisha City first. In fact, everything is just a delaying tactic, in the face of this move in Duli Town, Li Jing can neither sit idly by, but he can't really follow Li Lingfu to jump into the pit.

So the last thing he can think of is to delay first. Pulling allies and retreating from the Sand City soldiers are all delaying tactics. On the other hand, these actions are also putting pressure on the capital. What Li Jing hopes most is that Duli Town will be under pressure to hand over the money that should be given to Li Lingfu, and then apologize or something, and finally resolve this conflict and crisis. Wang Xianzhi's Huangchao Rebellion is about to start, and the real stage is in the Central Plains, not Liaodong.

Although he is a little sorry for Li Lingfu in doing this, in fact, Li Jing is really good to Li Jing. The Li family has controlled Qingnipu for a hundred years, and he doesn't want the most reluctant to be wiped out like this because of Li Lingfu's impulsiveness.

The ship was sailing on the sea, and because of the battle between Shamen Town, Daxieqi, Duli Town and Qingnipu, this most lively sea road in the north was closed for a time. Many caravans and merchant ships were afraid that a conflict would break out at any time, so the ships in Dengzhou Port, Duli Port and Qingni Port were all parked in the harbor and did not dare to go to sea. Now that the armistice agreement has been announced in Shamen Town, Duli Town and Qingni Port, the sea has finally returned to its former liveliness.

Standing on the deck, you can see a fleet of ships passing by from time to time. Some fleets consist of only a few ships, while others have large fleets of tens or hundreds of ships. These ships sailed along the coast and islands of Dengzhou to Liaodong, and then sailed eastward along the coast of Liaodong, bringing goods from the Tang Dynasty in the Middle Earth, and even from the extreme west to the north from the western regions such as Guangzhou, Mingzhou, Fuzhou, and Jiaozhou, all the way to the Bohai, Silla, Japan, and other Tibetan countries.

"Those dozen or so boats were running so fast, but they were all five-masted galleons. Wow, these dozen ships are so beautiful, the flag on the bow of the ship is so strange, it is actually a mandala flower, which family's caravan actually uses such a flower as a flag. Seeing that Li Jing didn't speak, Zhao Jiang looked at the merchant ships coming and going on the sea with some boredom, and suddenly said with great interest in a fleet of ships that were rushing by.

Mandala Flag?

Li Jing's heart suddenly moved. "Where?"

"What?"

"Where is the fleet of the Mandra Banner you just mentioned?" Li Jing asked loudly. Zhao Jiang was a little surprised, but he still stretched out his hand to the east and pointed: "Well, over there, there are more than a dozen ships in this fleet, but they don't seem to be loaded, they run fast, and the boats are not beautiful." ”

Li Jing looked at his hand, and sure enough, from a distance, about one or two hundred paces away, there was a fleet of ships sailing in a hurry. Li Jing carefully looked at the flag on the ship, and sure enough, he saw a mandala flower on it.

Seeing this flower, Li Jing's face couldn't help but become solemn. He suddenly remembered Zhang Yingying, who had a dewy marriage, and Zhang Yingying had sent him a big sea boat at the beginning. Since then, however, Li Jing has been looking for her, but she and her shark fleet have rarely been seen. According to Cui Zhiyuan, Zhang Yingying's fleet mainly walks in the East China Sea and the South China Sea, but rarely comes to the Liaohai Sea. She traveled back and forth between Bohai, Silla, Japan, as well as Yangzhou, Mingzhou, Fuzhou, Guangzhou and other places in the Tang Dynasty, and occasionally came to Dengzhou in the north, but rarely came.

He hadn't seen her for more than half a year, and now when he saw the banner of this mandala flower, he immediately remembered that Zhang Yingying seemed to have said that it was the symbol of the Silla princess Jinman. And Jin Man has been chasing Zhang Yingying everywhere with a group of assassin killers over the years. Last time in the Chishan Fahua Academy, Zhang Yingying fell into her trap, if he hadn't rescued her, maybe she would have died.

Jin Man appeared here, could it be that Zhang Yingying was also nearby?

Li Jing's heart moved, and he suddenly turned his head and said: "Turn the rudder, give me the fleet of the Mandala Flower Banner in front of me, quickly!" ”

"General, what's wrong?" Zhao Jiang saw that Li Jing's complexion had changed, and he couldn't help but ask in surprise.

"I've met an old friend, and I want to catch up and meet and talk." Li Jing said with a little excitement in his heart. Thinking of Zhang Yingying, Li Jing suddenly felt a sense of excitement that he couldn't wait to meet again. (To be continued......)
