Aspiring to the Ten Kingdoms
Chapter 360 One person alone is enough
Chapter 360 Alone is Enough
Pan Luozhi returned to the hall with a gloomy expression, rubbing his hands restlessly.
The appearance of He Zhiyao broke all his plans and made his hard work for more than a month come to naught.
Pan Luozhi was very fat, and he looked harmless to humans and animals, but he was actually full of bad food.
The third child who doesn't want to be the boss is not a good third child.
Of Liangzhou's eight great powerhouses, Jiashi is the first, Wu Zhe is the second, and Pan Luozhi is the third.
Although the remaining top five have good strength, they do not have the possibility to compete for the master of Liangzhou.
As for the third child who wants to win the first place, relying on strength is not enough. He has to sit back and watch the first and second place fight to the death and reap the benefits of the fisherman.
At the beginning, Pan Luozhi didn't want to support the capture of Jia Shi. The combined strength of the eldest and third child would crush the second child, which was not in Pan Luozhi's interest.
It is in the interest to support the second child against the boss.
However, Wu Zhe was too domineering, and He Zhiyao had a deep grudge against him, so Pan Luozhi had no choice but to wave the flag and shout after the boss.
This trip to Bianjing was Pan Luozhi's personal intention. On the surface, he wanted to capture Jia Shi to seek the position of Jiedu envoy, but in fact, it was to pave the way for himself to become the lord of Liangzhou.
In order to become the boss, Jia Shi endured Wu Zhe's second child for nearly 20 years, and he didn't intend to endure it any longer as he got older.
For the sake of his descendants, he is ready to deal with Wu Zhe.
Pan Luozhi was also ready to be a fisherman. As long as Jia Shi and Wu Zhe were captured, he would annex each other in one fell swoop while both sides were wounded, and then rely on the management of these days to take over as Hexi Jiedu envoy throne.
Historically, Pan Luozhi succeeded. He took over the influence of the eldest brother Jia Shi and the second child Wu Zhe in one fell swoop, and turned the eight powerful men in Liangzhou into six.
Because the six tyrants lived in the six valleys near Liangzhou with Yangfei Valley as their base, they were also called Liugu Tubo.
But now that Wu Zhe's confidant has come to Bianjing, if the emperor of the Central Plains chooses to support Wu Zhe, all his calculations will come to naught.
With the support of the Emperor of the Central Plains, arresting Jia Shi may not make him dare to fight Wu Zhe.
Pan Luozhi sighed helplessly and said to himself: "There is nothing I can do about it."
He didn't know that this was what Luo Youdu did deliberately, the purpose was to leave a nail in Liangzhou.
But what if you know it?
The initiative is not in your own hands...
Fortunately, the emperor of the Central Plains didn't mean to covet the west, he was just a Jiedu envoy in name only, so it didn't hurt much.
Faced with He Zhiyao's arrival, Pan Luozhi made a choice immediately.
Give up the pursuit of the Hexi Jiedu envoy, and submit to the Central Plains court, requesting to send an official Jiedu.
After receiving Pan Luozhi's submission, Luo Youdu showed a smile on his face.
This kind of game in the political field is more exhausting than fighting with real knives and guns on the battlefield.
It depends on who can keep the bottom line. If Pan Luozhi really refuses to let go, in the current situation, Luo Youdu really has nothing to do with them.
The place far away in Liangzhou is powerful, and with the current situation of the court, it is impossible to reach out.
But what Luo Youdu gambled on was that Pan Luozhi had selfish intentions and would not give up his own interests in order to arrest Jia Shi.
Fortunately, the bet was right.
Luo Youdu has always been very concerned about the affairs of the Northwest.
Because of the threat of Yan Youdi, the Song Dynasty has been unable to take care of matters in the northwest.
Coupled with the wrong estimate of the Dingnan Army, it contributed to the growth of the Xixia country.
Then the Northwest never regained the ownership of the Han people, and it was not until the Ming Dynasty that it was reclassified as the territory of the Han family...
Now there are Yuguan and Gubeikou in the direction of Yanyou, and Yanmen Pass in Shanxi. Before the world is unified, Luo Youdu does not plan to fight against Khitan.
This decisive battle that goes deep into the grasslands and the Great Northeast consumes astronomical figures.
In order to maintain a long-term battle, the financial and material resources of the whole country must be used.
If the world is not unified, there will be no capital to fight against Khitan.
Unification first is what the new dynasty should do.
Luo Youdu kept releasing smoke bombs, targeting Nanhan as his next target.
In this enthronement ceremony, the envoys of the Southern Han Dynasty even explicitly rejected the request to go north to congratulate.
But his real target is the Lianglong area.
Longyou is a natural horse farm, and Liangzhou is the center of the northwest, occupying Liangzhou, Shazhou, Guazhou, Ganzhou, and Suzhou are not to be feared.
It can also re-open the Silk Road and increase the income of the court.
Of course, the most important thing is that the northwest is now suitable for attacking, and the various forces there are fighting fiercely.
If you don't take advantage of this opportunity to win, it will be difficult to deal with them until they decide a winner.
Taking Lianglong area is the top military secret, Luo Youdu only told Wei Renpu, Song Qi and Zhao Pu.
Regarding the candidates for Hexi Jiedushi, Luo Youdu naturally could only find the three of them.
Luo Youdu had a suitable candidate in his heart, but he didn't say it out. Instead, he asked Wei Renpu, Song Qi, and Zhao Pu to each recommend a candidate.
Wei Renpu recommended Li Qianpu, Song Qi recommended Pan Mei, and Zhao Pu recommended Li Chuyun.
Looking at the three people in the hall, Luo Youdu sighed, Zhao Pu understood himself better.
Li Qianpu is generous, respectful, and good at military affairs. He can indeed take on important tasks, but he is not the best candidate.
As for Pan Mei, when it comes to ability changes, she is undoubtedly the best choice.
But Pan Mei was the earliest subordinate to follow Luo Youdu, and now she has made a name for herself.
If this heavyweight person is really allowed to serve as Jiedushi, he can't hide his desire to covet the Northwest.
On the other hand, Li Chuyun is courageous and resourceful, courageous and knowledgeable, able to make friends with powerful people at the top, and appease the people at the bottom, which is also a suitable choice.
Compared with Li Qianpu, Luo Youdu trusts Li Chuyun more.
However, Li Qianpu and Luo Youdu did not ignore it. He had to take Wei Renpu's face into consideration, and appointed him as the governor of Weizhou, in charge of the Longyou gate, and he would be the main vanguard when he captured Longyou.
Luo Youdu did not directly issue an appointment to Li Chuyun, but called him to Wende Hall in person.
"His Majesty!"
Li Chuyun bowed and saluted, Luo Youdu became the emperor, and these old subordinates were also honored.
"Come on!" Luo Youdu beckoned to him and said, "Come on ahead!"
He spread out the map of Lianglong on the table and said, "How much do you know about the situation in Lianglong?"
Li Chuyun said: "I didn't know at first, but envoys from all sides gathered in Bianjing recently. I also made some investigations on the situation in the four directions...Longzhou is a piece of sand, with more than a hundred Tubo tribes all over them. They don't have a unified leader. , each other, without interfering with each other, and often attack each other because of water source and pasture issues."
"As for Liangzhou, it's still relatively stable. The eight tyrants jointly elected Zheyu Jiashi as the leader. According to the general's understanding, Pan Luozhi sought the position of Hexi Jiedushi in Bianjing City for Zheyu Jiashi."
Luo Youdu nodded in satisfaction, and it could be heard that Li Chuyun had made preparations.
Although the famous general didn't know his intentions, he made preparations in advance so that he could use them in the future attack on the Northwest.
Luo Youdu said: "I want to take the land of Lianglong in one fell swoop, how do you think we should use our troops?"
Li Chuyun looked at the map and frowned and said: "I am stupid, I don't know where to start. Longyou is a piece of loose sand, and it is not difficult to lead troops to attack it. But once Longyou is attacked, Liangzhou will definitely get news and make a decision response."
"The eight ethnic groups in Liangzhou don't seem to be united at the moment. But when there is a foreign enemy, based on their habits, they will probably let go of all prejudices and unite with the outside world."
"It's not difficult to take Longyou in one fell swoop, but I think it's unrealistic to take the land of Lianglong in one fell swoop."
Luo Youdu couldn't help nodding, this was also his concern.
Lianglong didn't separate families, so he wanted to fight both of them together.
Otherwise, the imperial court will expose its own thoughts, and the Northwest, which has become a mess, will not be allowed to form an alliance with the enemy for its own benefit because of the forcible intervention of external forces.
Although Luo Youdu is not afraid of their alliance, why not be able to weaken the enemy strategically and avoid this unfavorable situation?
"If we leave Longyou alone and send someone to serve as the governor of Hexi, take advantage of the convenience of power to win over the eight tribes in Liangzhou, and control Liangzhou from the inside. Designate Liangzhou internally, and take Longyou externally. What do you think?"
Luo Youdu pointed at Liangzhou on the map, and rowed all the way to Longyou.
Li Chuyun's eyes lit up, and he immediately said: "The general thinks it is feasible, and is willing to take on this important task!"
Luo Youdu said directly: "Let Zheng Yuan come, this task is yours. It's just that there is a certain danger. I will choose three hundred of the most elite soldiers from the army to act as your guards."
Li Chuyun hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, you can't. If you go to Liangzhou, you will eventually go with the envoy. It's enough to be alone."
Luo Youdu took a deep look at Li Chuyun, and said, "It's up to you... remember, don't force it. If there is a change, safety is the top priority."
Li Chuyun said: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your compassion!"
Luo Youdu took Li Chuyun to the side hall, and came to the relationship map of the Northwest: "This is the relationship map calculated by me, Wei Renpu, Song Qi, and Zhao Pu based on the situation in the Northwest. Please write it down. For you Operations in the Northwest helped a lot."
Li Chuyun looked at the orderly relationship trend in front of him in shock, and remembered all the responsible relationships in his mind.
Time passed day by day, and the day of enthronement was getting closer and closer.
The envoys from all directions arrived in Bianjing on time.
All the envoys Luo Youdu met once or twice, and the two sides had political exchanges.
The Ganzhou Uyghurs, Xizhou Uyghurs, and Dali have all carried out close and in-depth exchanges.
In the form of trade, deepen mutual contact and understanding.
As for the Southern Tang, Western Shu, Wuyue, and Dingnan Army, what should be reprimanded should be reprimanded, and what should be praised should be praised.
Luo Youdu also didn't expect Li Congjia to act as an envoy in person, but what should be scolded must be scolded. If it weren't for the sincerity of their apology, Luo Youdu would not have planned to meet in private.
Luo Youdu highly appreciated Xishu's policy of laying flat, and couldn't help thinking to himself: It would be great if all the vassal states in the four directions were like Wuyue and Xishu.
The only thing that makes Luo Youdu dissatisfied is the Dingnan Army.
The Dingnan Army did come, and they brought a lot of gifts, but when they passed Hengshan, they encountered robbers, and the Qiang people on Hengshan robbed them!
Thank you Chen Ermao and Qin Shumoran for your rewards, thank you for your support!
