Chapter 258

Wen Yanbo pondered for a while, then asked immediately: "Does Mr. Lu know the current general situation in the world?"

The general trend of the world is a big topic. Everyone is interested in it, from the common people to the doctors, but it is not enough for non-celebrities.Wen Yanbo is qualified to talk about this topic in front of Lu Ziqian.

Lu Ziqian said immediately: "Brother Wen, try to talk about it."

Wen Yanbo said: "Now Li Fa is in a hurry to attack the Eastern Capital. If the Eastern Capital is destroyed, the imperial court will fall just around the corner. What will happen to the land of Youzhou, has Lu Gong thought about it?"

Lu Ziqian said with a smile: "Brother Wen should ask General Xue, who is in charge in Youzhou, about this? Why do you come to ask me, who is a commoner?"

Wen Yanbo said with a smile: "Xue Gong is a general under the emperor's command. There will be difficulties in the east, and the south must be transferred. At that time, who will belong to Youzhou? Xue Shixiong has no right to ask!"

Lu Ziqian thought that it was true that Li Chongjiu knew that Xue Shixiong was going to lead an army of [-] troops to the south.At that moment, Lu Ziqian asked Banyan knowingly, "Brother Wen, how did you know?"

This is Li Chongjiu's judgment. Li Chongjiu is one step ahead from the perspective of a traveler.And Wen Yanbo also deeply echoed it, and said immediately: "Back then, the imperial court had 30 soldiers from the government to fight against the Liao Dynasty. Among the twelve generals, only Xue Gong remained. Now the imperial court's elite soldiers will be lost to Li Mi's numerous subordinates. In addition to Xue Gong, the imperial court will Hebei has no troops to dispatch."

Lu Ziqian narrowed his eyes, thinking that he guessed it, and I also said that they had already grasped the inside story, but Wen Yanbo was really winking at being able to judge the timing at this moment.

Lu Ziqian's face softened a little, and he said: "Then what Li Shijun means is that he wants to take advantage of the situation to seize Zhuojun when Xue Gong is going south, right?"

"Yes, the land of Zhuojun is an important town. It controls the grassland in the west, connects Liaodong in the north, and borders the Liaohai Sea in the east. , are all the lands of the barbarians, and must be guarded by famous generals."

"Once Xue Shixiong leaves, if the Turkic, Khitan, and Xi tribes attack, how dare you ask Zhuojun how to occupy it?"

Lu Ziqian nodded when he heard the words, thinking that Wen Yanbo is a good lobbyist.Lu Ziqian said: "I don't need to worry about this. My children from Zhuojun are close to the land of Diyi. They are all strong and fierce. They are accustomed to fighting and horses. If foreign invaders come, they should resist."

Wen Yanbo said: "Don't mention the Turks, Goguryeo, just talk about the Xi tribe, and the Khitans each have [-] cavalry. Can Zhuojun resist?"

Lu Ziqian said confidently, "There is nothing to worry about."

Seeing Lu Ziqian's appearance like this, Wen Yanbo was obviously very confident, and couldn't help being secretly surprised, where did he get his confidence.

Lu Ziqian said: "Let me tell you the truth, Mr. Xue does intend to go south, but he has already told us that the 4000 soldiers in Zhuo County will not move, and there are [-] Zhuang Ke in the Qu Department of my Lu family. , together with the strength of the gentry in Youzhou, recruited [-] local soldiers. This is enough to protect ourselves."

Wen Yanbo suddenly realized that Lu Ziqian's words were not a frank confession, but a knock on the mountain to shake the tiger, saying that Zhuojun is not without the power to protect itself, Li Chongjiu should not think that he can take it lightly.

Wen Yanbo and Li Chongjiu looked at each other, and the situation in their hearts changed. They thought that once Xue Shixiong left, Zhuojun would be empty.Such a change in the situation, Xue Shixiong actually delegated the power to recruit soldiers from Zhuojun gentry for self-defense. With Li Chongjiu's current power, even if Lin Dangfeng had bought some of the county soldiers and generals, he would not be able to capture Zhuojun.

Seeing this, Lu Ziqian confidently clasped the table.

Li Chongjiu asked suddenly: "The Lu family organized their own Qubu, Zhuang Ding, as a village soldier. Could it be that they are separatist from Zhuojun?"

Lu Ziqian took a look at Li Chongjiu. He always regarded Li Chongjiu as Wen Yanbo's follower, and didn't take him seriously.When the other party asked this question, of course he would not say it clearly: "This is unknown! Maybe it is possible to wait for the right time to wait for the Lord."

The Fanyang Lu family wanted to be self-reliant, which never happened in history. Li Chongjiu squinted his eyes, thinking that if the Fanyang Lu family wanted to be self-reliant, it would be impossible for Luo Yi to occupy Youzhou without bloodshed in history.In fact, he came to Fan Yang Lu's family as a lobbyist based on this point, seeking Fan Yang Lu's support.After all, compared with the current situation in Youzhou, Luo Yi lost Liaodong and Liaoxi counties, leaving only Beiping County.

This kind of power, compared with Li Chongjiu, who has the support of Liaodong, Liaoxi, Shanggu, Huaihuang, Yuyi and other tribes, and Xi clan, Liaoxi Mohe, and Dingling, Luo Yi is far from his immediate opponent. Of course, it was also the reason why Li Chongjiu attacked Luo Yi with Daxing swords a few months ago.

Weakening Luo Yi's power will allow Li Chongjiu to take the lead in the future competition in Zhuo County.

Lu Ziqian laughed lightly, feeling that this was enough for Li Chongjiu and the others to back off. He glanced at Wen Yanbo. He is considered a celebrity today, but for some reason he voted for Li Chongjiu. He challenged him with words, saying: " Brother Wen is also considered a talented person, Li Shijun came from a poor family, dominated the grassland, and is also a hero today, how about persuading Li Shijun to join forces with us?"

Wen Yanbo smiled, and asked back: "Dare to ask Lu Gong, the two sides join hands, dare to ask what is the priority?"

Lu Ziqian glanced at Lu Chengqing.Lu Chengqing said: "Brother Wen, the fact that our Fanyang Lu family can stand in Youzhou for a hundred years is not because of our thousands of Qubu Zhuang Dingcai. Of course it is not because we are self-sufficient. Our Lu family also only makes friends with people we think highly of. Li Shijun now has three counties, and he has the grassland horses to help, if possible, we will be best friends."

What Lu Chengqing said was of course referring to the power of the Lu family, not what was put on the table. Of course, Li Chongjiu is not as good as it is now.

Li Chongjiu took over the words at this time, and said: "Yes, Fanyang Lu's family has a great career, and I have no doubts about the power in Youzhou, but if there is a war, the Lu family will be involved in the chaos of the world's heroes." Is it among the deer? As the saying goes, do great things without regretting your life, is the Lu family really determined to do this? If so, our prefect is willing to be his right-hand man. "

Lu Ziqian and Lu Chengqing looked at each other. When Li Chongjiu brought up this topic for the second time, they were secretly surprised that a general who was an eagle striker had such insight, and solved the biggest problem of the Lu family right now.They really put the Lu family on the front line and carried the flag, they really didn't dare to make this decision.

Lu Ziqian insisted on his identity and kept silent. Lu Chengqing said with a smile: "Brother Xu is a general of Yingya Lang. Can you make such a decision instead of your envoy?"

Wen Yanbo immediately said: "Young Master Lu, please rest assured, this brother Xu has won the trust of the prefect, he is the right envoy."

Lu Ziqian, Lu Chengqing and both of them were terrified.Lu Ziqian immediately said: "Since Brother Xu asked this question, we have also told the truth, and we are indeed worried about this."

Li Chongjiu nodded, and said: "That's easy. The Lu family has been passed down for more than two hundred years. It has a very large family business in Youzhou, and its children are all over the place. If there is a sudden incident, it will be very involved. The winner and the loser, it is almost impossible to retreat completely. Our Shanggu County is different, as the saying goes, it is easy to turn around, what do you think?"
Lu Ziqian was shocked. What Li Chongjiu said meant that the Lu family was afraid of the risk and refused to stand out?Then Li Chongjiu will take the lead on the first line, and the Lu family will be on the second line. If things fail, they will abandon the ship and leave.
And this condition really moved Lu Ziqian and Lu Chengqing's heart.
