Hengdao Sixteen Kingdoms

Chapter 201
It was Ran Min's conspiracy to remove Pu Hong, Yongqin governor and Yongzhou governor.

If there is anyone in the north and south of the river that makes him afraid, the one who ranks first is not Li Yue, but Pu Hong.

In the Battle of Lu County, if Li Nong hadn't repeatedly encouraged the north and the south to attack Li Yue, Ran Min would have attacked Pu Hong even faster.

However, after a head-to-head encounter with the Heiyun Army, the elites under his command suffered heavy casualties, especially Gao Li's imperial guards, who lost nearly half of them.

Both teams are resting.

But Pu Hong is no longer the Pu Hong he was before. During the Hebei War, some refugees went south, and many refugees also defected to Fangtou.

The Pu family has always had a good reputation and is willing to do good deeds. They are very popular among the Qiang, Di and Jin clans.

Pu Hong chose a strong and capable army, recruited more than [-] people, and had [-] to [-] people under him, and secretly confronted Yecheng.

In the Governor's Mansion, Ran Min was also discussing this matter with his staff.

Wang Jian, who was kneeling on the left, said: "Puhong's momentum has been established. If he returns to the west, it may be owned by the Central African countries. Now, our army is exhausted, and it may be difficult to stop."

"If the governor doesn't attack Yanzhou, but joins with the Heiyun army to squeeze Pu's family, Pu Hong has passed to Yedu." Chang Wei glanced at the silent Li Nong on the right.

The status of everyone can be seen from the seats in the hall.

After the Battle of Lu County, Li Nong changed from sitting side by side with Ran Min to the first seat on the right.

It wasn't just his ranking that changed, Guangzong Qihuo's army was almost at odds with him, Dong Run, Gao Kai, Zhang Wen and other generals had completely defected to Ran Min.

There is not much left under Li Nong's command.

In Xingyang City, the Hongmen Banquet was exposed, and Zhang Liang was not hesitated to take the blame.

When the refugees went south, instead of rescuing them, they led the army to attack and kill them.

What you have done has lost people's hearts, and it is inevitable that you will fall into today's situation.

However, judging by his appearance, he was at ease. After Shi Hu's death, Li Nong relied on the strength of the begging army from the north and the south, and the scholars from Hebei. His power and strength were second to none in Hebei, but he willingly handed over these things to others...

Hearing Chang Wei's words, his expression changed, "Heiyun Army and Fangtou have an alliance first, how can they put pressure on Pu Hong? Li Yue has great ambitions, and has changed the Nanqihuo Army to the Southern Army. If he doesn't get rid of it early, it will be a disaster for his heart! In my opinion, we might as well use the strategy of driving tigers and wolves away, using the governor of Guanzhong as bait to lure Puhong to attack Heiyun Mountain!"

Ran Min, who was sitting upright, rolled his eyelids.

Wang Jian immediately knew what Ran Min was thinking, "Sikong's plan is very clever, but how could Pu Hong not know what I'm thinking?"

When Zhou Cheng entered Liyang and Dong Run entered Yuanfu City, it was as if two sharp knives were pressed against the waist of Fangtou. At this time, they came to drive away tigers and wolves. If Pu Hong believed it, he would not have come to this day.

Li Nong sullenly said, "The governor might as well write a letter to Chen Liu and order him to attack Puhong, whoever wins will be the governor of Yongliang! Li Yue's prodigal son is ambitious, and he will inevitably move. If he doesn't attack Puhong, Puhong will attack him. Even if this plan fails, it can also make the two of them discord. When the governor sends troops, Heiyun Mountain will not rush to help."

Li Nong has held a high position in Jiezhao for 20 years, and he has not fallen down, and the city is still there.

Otherwise, they wouldn't be tinkering with Hongmen Banquet in Xingyang.

In fact, he was [-]% sure of success at that time. At that time, Li Yue had just returned home triumphantly, so he was totally unprepared.

But I don't know why he noticed it.

Thinking of this, Li Nong first glanced at Ran Min, then at Chang Wei.

Chang Wei noticed his gloomy gaze, coughed, cupped his hands at Ran Min and said, "Fangtou and Heiyun Mountain have become powerful, and they will not be eradicated sooner or later. Now the trouble of the Great Governor is not in the south, but in Yecheng, and Xiangguo in the north..."

The throne of Jiezhao was originally Shi Shi's, but Shi Zun grabbed it by force. A few days ago, Shi Shi, who was only eleven years old, and more than 1000 people including Liu Shi and Shi Chong were executed.

Since he can grab it, why can't others?
Shi Chong and Shi Bao are only in the first round, and Shi Zhi in Xiangguo is also ready to move.

However, he was much smarter than Shi Chong and Shi Bao. He secretly wooed Yao Yizhong, Pu Hong, Liu Xian, Duan Qin, Deng Heng and others, and took over the rest of Shi Chong's troops, and his power continued to grow.

In addition, Ran Min monopolized the power, rewarded and punished as he wished, and in a word, he gave up the two prefectures of Henan and Yanzhou.

This naturally aroused the dissatisfaction of many people in the court, especially Zuowei General Wang Luan and Zhongshu Ling Mengzhun. Shi Zunzi didn't believe it at first, and the two were as close as father and son.

Wang Jiandao: "The Pu family lived in Guanzhong for a long time, and got the strong heart of Yong and Qin. Once they enter the pass, the Qiang Diding will rise up everywhere, and the momentum will be huge. Within a few years, it will become a major disaster in Guanxi. You might as well try Sikong's plan. The governor can send a spy to Fangtou and Chen Liu to stir up rumors."

Ran Min nodded, "Pu Hong and Li Yue are my confidantes, it's best if the two thieves can attack each other."

Chang Wei lowered his head and said nothing.

A faint smile rose from the corner of Li Nong's mouth, "Chang Zhonglang has visited Heiyun Mountain several times, this time he will definitely catch the Heiyun thief!"

Chang Wei's expression changed, but because he lowered his head, he was not noticed by others.

These words were obviously digging a hole. If Heiyunshan got the trick, it was due to him, Li Nong. If he didn't, it meant there was something wrong with Chang Wei.

Throw the blame to Chang Wei in advance.

In the past, Li Nong always called Chang Wei by his official name, but now he calls him by his official name, which is obviously alienated.

Everyone present felt that Li Nong intended to target Chang Wei, but no one interceded for him.

He was considered an outlier in the begging army, he was close to everyone, and he adopted the strategies he offered, and he adopted them if he wanted to, and he didn't force them if he didn't want to adopt them, so Wang Jian was allowed to come from behind.

Ran Min clapped his hands together, "Then Lao Changxing will go to Chenliu!"

"The subordinates take orders." Chang Wei did not hesitate, nor could he hesitate.

Wang Jian glanced at Chang Wei, gloating in his eyes, "The superintendent's majesty, the hearts of people from far and near have returned. Recently, dozens of people have come to vote, and the leader is Fa Rao. He is an expert in the world. He has broken the astrology and prophecy. He said that the general has good luck."

Since the Wei and Jin Dynasties, the technique of prophecy has been popular.

When Shi Hu was in power, he was quite superstitious. He often offered sacrifices to mountains and rivers and prayed for the protection of the gods...

Fotucheng was highly praised by Shi Le and Shi Hu because of the repeated fulfillment of the prophecy, and he had a high status in Jiezhao.

Ran Min's eyes and ears were deeply influenced by it, and naturally he was no exception.

Moreover, the word "Qi Luck" was used very cleverly, directly speaking into Ran Min's heart.

Back then when he followed Shi Zun to raise troops, he had personally promised that he would be the crown prince after the event was completed, but he never fulfilled it, and there was always a thorn in Ran Min's heart.

In the tradition of Jiezhao, princes usually die badly, and even if they ascend the throne, they will be pulled down.

So what will happen to Jie Zhao in the future is still unknown.

Ran Min is becoming more and more powerful in the court, and his status is not below that of Prince Shi Yan.

"Please!" Ran Min blushed with joy.

Chang Wei's expression was a little sad...
