Monument Yangmen

Chapter 459 Persuasion
Zhe Yuqing was generous enough, but Yang Qi didn't dare to take advantage of it.

Yang Qi smiled helplessly: "To tell the truth, General. I used to have several subordinates, and now they are the leaders of this group of refugees."

"Yi~"

Zhe Yuqing was obviously surprised, he stood up, paced in front of the desk, and walked for a long time before stopping.

"I didn't see it, you kid is very capable, and the people under your command are also powerful. You can actually pull tens of thousands of soldiers and horses."

Yang Qi clasped his fists and said, "I made the general laugh."

Zhe Yuqing groped her chin, and said in a deep voice, "If you say that, this matter will be a little difficult."

Yang Qi said in a deep voice: "Can the general retreat from the left and right?"

Zhe Yuqing was stunned for a moment, and said: "The tents are all from my own family, you can speak directly if you have something to say."

Yang Qi clasped his fists, lowered his head, and said nothing.

Zhe Yuqing twitched the corners of his mouth, sighed and said, "Forget it, Weichang, you and Deputy General Zhang go down first."

Zhe Weichang took a deep look at Yang Qi, cupped his hands, and walked outside the big tent.

The partial general also got the idea and withdrew from the big account.

Yang Qi waved his hand to the bull head behind him.

Niutou hesitated for a moment, and withdrew from the tent.

Zhe Yuqing beckoned, making Yang Qi a few steps closer to him, and then asked with a smile, "Can we talk now?"

Yang Qiyu was not surprised and died endlessly.

"Could it be that the Zhe family is satisfied after taking down the land in five counties?"

After saying a word, Zhe Yuqing's eyes widened and he froze in place.

Zhe Yuqing was stunned for a while, then narrowed his eyes, stared at Yang Qi cautiously, and said in a deep voice, "What do you mean by that?"

Yang Qi stepped forward and walked to the table in front of Zhe Yuqing.

On the table, there is a map of the northwest.

Yang Qiyi slapped the map, and said in a deep voice: "The land of five counties is nothing. Has the general considered including Linzhou under the banner of the Zhe family?"

"Linzhou?"

Zhe Yuqing's eyes were full of shock.

Linzhou is adjacent to Fuzhou, and has been under the supervision of both the imperial court and the party.

Compared with Yinzhou, Linzhou is closer to Fuzhou.

The Zhe family has coveted Linzhou for a long time, but unfortunately the imperial court has very strict control over the Zhe family and has not allowed the Zhe family to intervene in Linzhou's affairs.

Therefore, Zhejia could only look at the piece of meat next to his mouth, drooling.

Every year, Zhejia feels heartbroken watching the party members torment Linzhou to such an extent.

Now, as soon as Yang Qi opened his mouth, he took out Linzhou to talk about the matter, and poked Zhejia's sore foot in one fell swoop.

Zhe Yuqing gritted his teeth and stared at Yang Qi, and said viciously: "You boy, how can I make fun of you? It is well known that my Zhe family wants Linzhou. But Linzhou, we can get it if we want it." Do you want it? The imperial court would rather let Linzhou be ruined in the hands of the party members than see Linzhou belong to my Zhe family."

Yang Qi raised his eyebrows and said while the iron was hot: "Maybe there was no chance before, but now it is an opportunity for Zhejia."

Zhe Yuqing frowned, and asked doubtfully: "How do you say that?"

Yang Qi pointed to the tent behind Zhe Yuqing, and said with a smile: "The solution lies with this group of refugees in Crouching Tiger Hill."

"Oh?"

Zhe Yuqing suddenly became interested, he sat down on the chair boldly, and motioned Yang Qi to continue talking.

Yang Qi said: "The previous battle at Yanmen Pass, this group of refugees participated in it. When they entered the court and were appointed, they once had a deal with His Majesty.

The content of the transaction is to let them deny that they have appeared in Yanmen Pass, and give all the credit to my father.

In return, His Majesty promised that as long as they took Yinzhou and Xiazhou, the imperial court would recognize their rule.

At the same time, as a favor, Shengzhou was also counted in it. "

"Is there such a thing?"

Zhe Yuqing was stunned, and he lost his voice: "Why haven't I received any news from Zhejia?"

Yang Qi spread his hands and said with a smile: "The imperial court is strictly guarding against your family. I'm afraid that you will make something wrong in it. How can it be possible to tell you such an important thing?"

"Boom."

Zhe Yuqing patted the table and scolded: "It's unreasonable. I would rather give the land to outsiders than give us Zhejia."

Yang Qi said in a deep voice: "No matter what the imperial court thinks, this is indeed an opportunity for us. As long as we can seize this opportunity, we can expand the territory under our rule several times."

Zhe Yuqing put away the anger towards the court that had just risen in his heart, turned to look at Yang Qi with squinted eyes, and asked in a low voice: "Is this what you mean, or what Yang Ye means?"

Yang Qi straightened his back, and said calmly: "The current Yang family, I am the master."

Yang Qi is shameless enough, obviously boasting.

As long as Lao Yang is still alive, it is impossible for Yang Qi to be the head of the Yang family.

However, Zhe Yuqing saw something different from this.

That is Yang Qi's self-confidence.

Obviously, Yang Qi has a plan in mind.

This shows that Yang Qi should have a plan in mind.

Zhe Yuqing felt that it was necessary for him to listen to Yang Qi's plan first.

"Tell me about your plan."

Yang Qi immediately said: "My plan is very simple, to borrow a knife to kill people. Use this sharp knife on Crouching Tiger Hill to help us kill people. After leaving Fuzhou, head east all the way to Linzhou. As long as we open a road for them, Let them enter Linzhou. Then we can take advantage of the opportunity to fish in troubled waters.

Once you take Linzhou, you can send your confidantes to control Linzhou.As for the imperial court, these refugees on the mountain can be dealt with.

It means that Linzhou is already under their control. "

Zhe Yuqing listened to Yang Qi's plan, frowned, and said: "Is it that easy to deal with the imperial court? The imperial court promised them, but Yin, Xia, and Shengzhou, and they rashly occupied other states. Place. Will the imperial court send troops to attack?

At that time, we were going to be at a loss. "

Yang Qi shook his head resolutely, and said: "The imperial court will not. The imperial court wished that the internal chaos of the party would be as good as possible. Now this group of refugees appears and splits the party. For the imperial court, there is nothing harmful.

Moreover, the court's eyes are now cast in the southwest direction.

The rebellion in central Shu last year affected many surrounding prefectures, and now Dali has been involved.

The center of gravity of the court's use of troops must be in Dali.

When the rebellion in the middle of Shu was not over, and the war with Dali was useless.

The imperial court will not rashly use troops against the Northwest.

After all, once the court uses troops to the northwest, it will send heavy troops at that time.

Hundreds of thousands of heavy troops pressed the border, which could easily provoke the nerves of the Liao Kingdom.

The imperial court is not yet ready to fight the Liao Kingdom.

Therefore, even the land of the Northwest has something wrong with it.

At most, the imperial court would only send someone over to check, or hold them accountable.

It is absolutely not possible to directly send soldiers to suppress the border. "

Yang Qi paused, and then said: "Then again, the imperial court's attitude towards the party is very ambiguous. Now there is a tacit approval of the group of refugees on Crouching Tiger Hill to make trouble. Even if there is something that crosses the line, You only need to promise to the imperial court to increase the annual tribute, which will give you enough sweetness. The imperial court will not go into it."

Yang Qi's analysis was very thorough, and Zhe Yuqing nodded frequently.

It wasn't until Zhe Yuqing understood the meaning of Yang Qi's words that he stared at Yang Qi with a half-smile, and said: "According to what you said, it is a matter of certainty for my Zhe family to take down Linzhou. However, there are two things that I can't figure out?"

Yang Qi spread his hands and said: "General, if you have something to say, just ask."

Zhe Yuqing said: "First of all, why do you believe that the sharp knife on Crouching Tiger Hill will only be used by us. Secondly, what benefits will your Yang family get from this matter? I don't believe it, you kid will do it! These thankless things.”

Yang Qi smiled, and said: "To be honest, the Yang family does have its own plans. You Zhejia won Linzhou. But my Yang family wants Fengzhou and Shengzhou."

According to Yang Qi's previous plan, his appetite is not so big.Just want to swallow a win state.

It's just that the plan can't keep up with the changes.

The joining of Zhejia disrupted Yang Qi's previous plan.

All of a sudden, there were many changes in his plan.

Thus, it also increased Yang Qi's appetite.

"Toyosu and Shengzhou? You have a big appetite. Aren't you afraid of being stuffed to death?"

Zhe Yuqing said sarcastically.

From the beginning to the end, the Yang family hardly paid anything, but they wanted to get the land of the two states.

With such a big appetite, Zhe Yuqing felt that Yang Qi was a little arrogant.

Yang Qi smiled and said: "This is a matter of mutual benefit. If you lose your family, you feel that you will suffer from this matter. At that time, you can also occupy five counties from Yinzhou to make compensation. Anyway, Fengzhou Hesheng Prefecture, the combined land of the two states is only a little bigger than Linzhou. If you calculate carefully, you won’t suffer a lot from losing your family.”

Zhe Yuqing secretly calculated, according to Yang Qi's plan, the Zhe family would indeed not suffer.

However, he was always a little bit uncomfortable.

That being the case, the Yang family still has nothing to pay.

From the beginning to the end, it was Zhejia and the refugees on Crouching Tiger Hill who contributed.

Zhe Yuqing said annoyedly: "Even if it is according to what you said, why do you think that the people on Crouching Tiger Hill will help us expand our territory."

Yang Qi said with confidence: "It's up to now, they can't be left alone. As long as the Zhe family's soldiers and horses follow behind them, then they can only follow the route we set for them."

"Sigh~"

Zhe Yuqing took a deep breath, and said in a deep voice: "Are you civil servants all so poisonous? No wonder we are rough and oppressed by your civil servants everywhere."

Yang Qi shrugged his shoulders and said with a smile: "It's just some small tricks, nothing sinister. What's more important is the interaction of interests. If you don't use the bait of Linzhou, I'm not qualified to talk to you Zhejia condition."

Zhe Yuqing sighed and said: "Everyone said that Yang Ye got a unicorn, I thought it was just a rumor. Now I see you in real life and see your scheming. I feel ashamed."

Zhe Yuqing sighed, and then said: "As the saying goes, it is easy to conquer the country, but difficult to defend it. Even if you follow your plan, how can we defend the territory we have won?"

Yang Qi pointed to the map on the case table in front of Zhe Yuqing.

Zhe Yuqing moved away naturally.

Yang Qi picked up the ink pen on the case table and drew three circles on the map.

Then draw three more lines.

"As long as I win Lin, Feng, and Shengzhou according to my plan, our two families can form an alliance. Based on Shengzhou, Daizhou, Fuzhou, and Sanzhou, a triangular common defense system will be formed.

No matter any point is attacked, the soldiers and horses at the other two points can easily rush to help.

As long as we win the three states, a triangular common defense system will be formed.

With the ability of breaking the Yang family, 20 soldiers and horses are useless.

No one can do anything to us. "

20 soldiers and horses can't do anything?

Zhe Yuqing felt that only [-] imperial soldiers and horses were needed to plow the land of the Zheyang family once again.

Yang Qi really dared to brag.

However, when he put his gaze on the map and carefully studied the triangle defense Yang Qi mentioned, his pupils began to shrink sharply.

As a veteran on the battlefield, especially a veteran on the battlefield in the Northwest.

Zhe Yuqing has a good understanding of the Northwest military.

According to the defense system given by Yang Qi, he calculated the regular forces of the two families, and calculated the distance traveled by the soldiers and horses.

He found that once the triangle defense mentioned by Yang Qi was formed.

That is really beyond 20 soldiers and horses.

According to the defense system in the picture, as long as any one of the three points is attacked.

The other two reinforcements can arrive within a day and a night.

The land in nearly six states can support up to 16 soldiers.

16 soldiers and horses, jointly defending.

It's really not easy to break through.

If you have to find a weakness.

That weakness is Daizhou.

Daizhou is close to Yanmen Pass, and on the other side is close to Fenzhou.

Moreover, the terrain of Daizhou is relatively flat.

So it is easy to attack.

However, Yang Ye is now settled in Daizhou.

All the generals in the Northwest Army knew that Yang Ye had the name of Yang Wudi.

But few people know that Yang Ye's invincible title was not earned by fighting, but by defending it.

It can be said that it is basically difficult for a city guarded by Yang Ye to be breached.

At that time, Song Taizu Zhao Kuangyin's Northern Expedition to the Northern Han Dynasty was overwhelming.

However, in Taiyuan, after bumping into Yang Ye, he was defeated.

At that time, the military strength in Taiyuan City was less than [-].

Outside Taiyuan City, Zhao Kuangyin commanded more than 40 forbidden troops.

Later, when Zhao Guangyi crusaded against the Northern Han Dynasty, he stole a trick.

When he was on the Northern Expedition to the Northern Han Dynasty, he happened to meet Yang Ye having a brain attack, and his family was recuperating on the Taihang Mountains.

This allowed him to easily win Beihan.

It can be seen that there is Yang Ye guarding Daizhou City.

As long as there are enough troops, it is impossible to be breached.

In this way, the last shortcoming of the triangle defense system described by Yang Qi was completed.

Zhe Yuqing was tempted all of a sudden.

He held the map tightly with both hands, raised his head in shock, and looked at Yang Qi, "You really are a monster."

Zhe Yuqing quickly put the map into his arms, and solemnly said to Yang Qi: "You boy, just stay in the barracks, so don't go there. This matter is very important. I can't make the decision alone. I need Hurry to Fuzhou City as soon as possible, and ask my elder brother to make a decision."

"Hi……"
