Refine Gu to become immortal from one person

Chapter 376

In the palace of Prince Jin.

With Li Cunxin's participation and Li Cunren's acknowledgment, no one questioned why Zhang Zifan and Li Cunyi, two people who once defected from Tongwenguan, can come back in a big way.

Because those who questioned were regarded as Li Siyuan's diehard loyalists, they went down to accompany their master.

Perhaps it was because of the different education he received since he was a child. In this regard, Zhang Zifan, who was carefully trained by the Tongwen Museum, was more decisive than Li Xingyun.

Ask someone to clean up the blood in the hall, replace the tables and chairs that were broken during the fight, and the group of people who are now in charge of Jinyang's destiny are seated again.

Zhang Zifan and Li Xingyun sat at the top of the left and right respectively, followed by Lu Linxuan, Li Cunyi, Li Cunren, Hou Qing, Han Yan, and Li Cunxin who had just joined the last seat.

Speaking of which, they had no choice but to accept Li Cunxin's offer, because although Li Xingyun and his gang were strong in martial arts, one of them was from the Jianghu, and they didn't know anything about military affairs.Assassinating the king and killing the car is familiar, but if you want to command the army to confront Li Maozhen and even several other vassal states head-on, it will be beyond your capabilities.

At that time, they may only be able to play with thousands of troops.

In the Thirteenth Taibao, only Li Cunxin and Li Cunxiao have served in the army. Originally, Li Cunxiao had the best relationship with Zhang Zifan, and was known as the number one general in Jin, so he was the best candidate. He has been killed by the ghost king Zhu Youwen.

Now this Li Cunxin can barely be used.

After several people sat down, Li Cunren presented the information that had been sent back from various directions in the state of Jin these days. Zhang Zifan, Li Xingyun and others frowned after reading it.

"I didn't expect the situation to have collapsed to such an extent in just a few days..."

Li Xingyun looked at the news of the enemy on all sides in the intelligence, and felt dizzy, "Speaking of which, we also helped the king of Shu to solve the plague of Shu before, maybe we can rely on this..."

"impossible."

Hou Qing lightly poured cold water on him, "We did help them develop an antidote to the disease, but don't forget that this disease was caused by Li Siyuan's people going for a walk. The chief culprit is the same reason that the King of Shu announced when he sent troops. As for helping him cure the concubine's illness, this is just a personal friendship, and a qualified king will never waste state affairs because of private affairs."

Zhang Zifan continued: "Hou Qing Shizu is right, brother Li, it is almost impossible to persuade those princes to retreat with some small favors, we can only rely on ourselves."

He spread out the map and placed his fingers heavily on Jinyang City, "For us now, there are two most urgent things. One is Li Maozhen, who is only a wall away from us when soldiers are approaching the city; the other is to bring a lot of soldiers. The horse is wandering outside, and Li Cunli's purpose is unknown. Eighth Uncle, if Li Maozhen attacks the city, can you handle it?"

Li Cunxin, who was named by him, got up and thought for a while: "Jinyang is a big city, high and deep, easy to defend and difficult to attack. It is not difficult to just block Li Maozhen's siege, but I am afraid that he will go around Let Jinyang go to raid other regions, what should we do then?"

"Hmm... this is indeed a problem." Zhang Zifan pondered.

"Also, although Zifan has become the new king of Jin, what he can really rule at present is only a small city of Jinyang,"

Li Cunyi added, "And Li Cunli led the troops outside for many days. From the results, it can be seen that he did not resist Li Maozhen at all. So what is he doing, we have to be careful."

"Prince Jin, I don't know if I should say something or not..."

Li Cunxin tentatively opened his mouth and said.

"Uncle Ba, you're welcome, just speak freely." Zhang Zifan raised his hand as a signal.

"Actually, under the current situation, it is unrealistic to completely preserve the land of the Jin Kingdom. We have too little power in our hands, let alone the huge hidden danger of Li Cunli."

"Then what does Eighth Uncle mean?"

"We might as well shrink our defenses first, take the Dai, Shuo, Ji, You, Cang, Di and other places in the north and west of Jinyang, and leave the land in the south to them to fight for. After we have consolidated our forces, we will wait for an opportunity recover."

Zhang Zifan drew a line on the map according to several key cities Li Cunxin said, and his heart ached immediately.

"This is giving up most of the Jin country!"

"There is no other way, only if we have sacrifices can we gain. In our current situation, if we have to send troops to fight against Li Maozhen or the army of Wu and Shu, we may not be able to hold on to the army after a battle. I am afraid that Li Cunli will take advantage of the opportunity in the rear." Stolen."

Li Cunxin explained, "And what I just said is just a conservative estimate. Shu, Chu, Wu and other countries may not be able to advance as fast as Qi. Maybe after we win the north, we will be able to fight in the south." Maybe it's possible to compete for Luzhou, Weidi, Qidi, or even Bianzhou and Yanzhou?"

In this way, they can occupy two-thirds of the land of the original Jin State, which can be regarded as a great success.

A group of people discussed around the map for a long time, and finally decided to adopt Li Cunxin's strategic suggestion and take a step back to open up the sky.

"Thanks to you, Eighth Uncle!"

Zhang Zifan said with emotion, "Then Fifth Uncle will be in charge of Jinyang. We must stop Li Maozhen from continuing to go north. Let's seize the time to subdue those cities in the northwest, so as not to be caught by Li Cunli first."

……

……

Outside Jinyang City, Li Maozhen did give up her plan to smash this fortified city after a tentative attack, and temporarily stationed outside the city, thinking about the next step.

As for Li Cunli, who was deeply feared by Zhang Zifan and others, after he got the definite news of Li Siyuan's death, he originally planned to send his troops to Jinyang to seize the throne by force.

However, the marching speed of the army was not as fast as that of the Jianghu masters. He had just arrived in Fencheng, and the battle between Jin and King had already been settled.Not only did Li Cunli not even have a mouthful of hot soup, but he almost bumped into Qi State's army.

Looking at the lone army in his hands, Li Cunli thought carefully all night, and finally chose to go directly to Li Maozhen, who is now the most prosperous soldier.

Qi army camp.

Li Cunli rode alone and handed over the greeting card.

"So brave!"

When Li Maozhen saw the greeting card, his eyes showed strange expressions, "Let him in."

"Meet King Qi."

Li Cunli is very good at being a man. After entering the big tent, he bowed so long in front of Li Maozhen that his fingers almost touched the ground, showing respect and humility.

This attitude made Li Maozhen pleasing to his eyes.

"You said you wanted to serve me, how can I believe you?"

"The sergeant under my command, King Qi, can do whatever I want. As for my subordinate, I would also like to accompany you by King Qi's side, to check for your omissions and make up for your vacancies, and try my best."

As soon as Li Cunli opened his mouth, he would hand over all the chips in his hands. His sincerity was so high that Li Maozhen didn't know what to say for a while.

Even if he wanted to pick a prick, he couldn't open his mouth.

After a long silence, Li Maozhen changed the subject:

"Since that's the case, the king wants to test the school and test you. Now that Jinyang is difficult to attack, you know the whole country of Jin well. What do you think the king should do next?"

This question is both a test and a test.If Li Cunli was sincere in his efforts, then with him, Jin Guotong, at his side to make suggestions, Qi Jun's actions this time would naturally go much smoother.

On the contrary, it should be removed as soon as possible to avoid future troubles.
