Chapter 530: King Zhao's plan, preparing to stab someone in the back?

"Jing Li."

"master."

Jing Li handed over a broken piece of silver from his sleeve. The little beggar's eyes suddenly sparkled with surprise, and he knelt down with a pop: "Thank you, master! Thank you, master!"

"Don't be too hasty to thank me yet."

Emperor Yu waved his hand and asked softly: "I... I still want to ask you a few questions. Is it the government's responsibility to dig river channels and recruit workers?"

"no!"

The little beggar shook his head directly, and said after a while: "The purpose of digging the river channel is to divert the Huaihe River water into Huainan. I heard that tens of thousands of people were recruited from our counties in the south of the Yangtze River, and Prince Yong's Mansion even claimed that it took half a month to dig the main channel. , I think it has been completed now, and many people have settled directly in Huainan. "

"Huainan?"

"So, this recruitment was also done by the second child?"

"This kid..."

Emperor Yu frowned slightly and murmured to himself: "What kind of trick is the second child doing again? Huainan is suffering from internal and external troubles, but he still has the idea to divert the water of the Huaihe River south?"

"Jing Li."

"exist!"

"Immediately go back and pack up, prepare to set off, change the water route, and enter Huainan from the Huaihe River."

"promise!"

…

Guanshan!

Zhao Wangcheng.

"My lord, the army of the Central Plains is getting stronger and stronger. They are sweeping all the way. King Nian and King Lu have lost their troops and generals. They have lost several cities. It won't be long before the army is on the border. I, Prince Zhao, should also make a decision early."

"Um!"

King Zhao sat at the top with a slightly solemn expression. After looking around, his eyes fell on Lu Bu, who had always been the top military general. He said softly: "Fengxian, the army from the Central Plains is coming in a mighty manner. You What’s the strategy to meet the enemy?”

"Father!"

Lu Bu cupped his hands slightly, with a high fighting spirit in his eyes, and said loudly: "I have Fang Tian's painted halberd and red rabbit horse. No matter how many soldiers and horses come from the Central Plains, I will guarantee that my adopted father and I, Zhao Di, will be safe."

"When the Central Plains army arrives, I am willing to lead the army to meet the enemy!"

"Hahaha!"

King Zhao laughed suddenly, and his slightly depressed mood instantly became extremely comfortable. The generals behind him also looked at him with awe in their eyes.

"good!"

"My son deserves to be the second best in the world. With your help, I will not worry about failing to achieve my great cause!"

King Zhao first expressed his appreciation, then looked at the scribe beside him, and his tone became much gentler: "Xu Liang, do you have any good ideas?"

"Go back to Your Majesty!" The scribe had a gentle look on his face, but his eyes shone with wisdom: "Look down here, Your Majesty, you have three ways to go!"

"explain!"

"First, wait and see what happens, and wait for work!" Xu Liang said in a calm and unhurried tone: "I, Zhao, occupy Jiuchong Pass, with King Lu and King Nian separated from us. Before the two princes are completely defeated, Zhao is safe."

"good!"

"If the prince waits and waits, he can make the two princes consume the Central Plains people's troops. At that time, the army will be prepared for war to compete with the Central Plains soldiers and horses."

"What about the second one?"

"Second, join forces with Zongheng and send troops to assist King Lu and King Nian to prevent the Central Plains people from going south. In this way, the war can be prevented from burning into our territory of Zhao, and the prince can still sit back and relax."

King Zhao shook his head and said calmly: "King Lu and King Nian fought with me a lot before, and now they ask me to send troops to fight for them. What a wishful thinking!"

When Xu Liang heard this, a wry smile appeared on his face, and he sighed softly: "In this case, the prince can only choose the third way."

"Come out in full force and capture the territory of King Lu and King Nian with the force of thunder!"

"What!"

As soon as these words came out, the whole hall fell into silence. Even King Zhao couldn't help but his eyelids twitched and he stared straight at Xu Liang: "Do you want me to stab you in the back?"

"Your Majesty!"

Xu Liang had a serious look on his face: "I, Prince Zhao, and Prince Lu, have always been at odds with each other and have been attacking each other for a long time. Moreover, the alliance of princes has now collapsed. Even if sending troops at this time has a bad reputation, it cannot be called a stabbing. "

"Besides, those who achieve great things don't stick to small details. For us, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!"

"If the prince can swallow the Lu Kingdom and Danian, he can gather three thirds of Guanshan and compete with the world!"

"With the help of General Lu and the solid foundations of the two countries, we can integrate the forces of the three parties. Why worry about not succeeding in our great cause?"

Lu Bu also looked at Xu Liang deeply, with a hint of emotion in his eyes, and slightly cupped his hands: "Father, sir, what you said is not unreasonable. As the saying goes, a successful king loses a bandit. When the foster father has captured the two countries, he will defeat the enemy." Although he has retired from the Central Plains, in the eyes of the people of the world, his adopted father is still a hero of Guanshan! "

"Um……"

King Zhao fell into deep thought, with a tangled look in his eyes. After a long time, he looked at Lu Bu: "Fengxian, if I ask you to lead the army to attack Danian, are you sure?"

"If we don't win, I'd like to come to see you with my head raised!"

"Hahaha, good!"

King Zhao stood up suddenly and said loudly: "Generals, listen to the order!"

"exist!"

"I, the king, make Lu Bu a rebel general and lead an army of 30,000 people. We must seize Danian directly. We must capture the rear territory of Danian before the Central Plains people invade!"

"As you command!"

Lu Bu saluted solemnly, and the unruly aura released from his body also made King Zhao feel at ease. After looking around, he said in a deep voice: "Generals, follow me on the expedition, and the new year will be peaceful in three days!"

…

Inside Jiuchong Pass.

Ning Fan has been feeling restless for the past two days, as if something bad is going to happen, and he can't sit still.

"Fengxiao, are there any battle reports from the front line?"

"My lord, the three armies on the front line are attacking very smoothly. If my prediction is correct, the plan of Wenhou should be implemented."

"Yes!" Ning Fan nodded and looked at Li Ru and said, "Wenyou, since Lu Bu is ready to send troops, let our people slow down the offensive and make contributions to Lu Bu!"

"My lord, don't worry, I have already made arrangements."

"Very good!"

Since it is not a matter of the front line, then where is the problem?

Is there something wrong in Huainan?

"Come here!"

"Here!"

"Send the intelligence of Huainan in recent days, and I want to check them one by one."

"Yes!"

An internal official presented the intelligence sent by Huainan in recent days. Ning Fan flipped through a few pages casually and nodded frequently.

Under the governance of Xin Qiji and the other two, the three counties are thriving, the people live and work in peace, and the infrastructure in various places is rising from the ground. From schools to clinics, to entertainment facilities, it can be said that almost all industries in Lingzhou City have been replicated one by one.

The water of the Huaihe River finally flowed into Huainan after being successfully diverted into three channels, and the navy gradually got back on track. As described in the letter, the current Huainan has undergone earth-shaking changes compared to the Huainan when the army set out.

"Yes, there is a bit of the atmosphere of a harmonious society, but there is still a long way to go!"

"My lord, there is another matter that needs to be reported."

"What is it?"

"I just received a report from the capital that His Majesty has reported illness, and the court has been supervised by King Qi Lin for several days."
