I am a corrupt official, but they say I am a loyal minister

King Jibei's heart trembled.

The matter of Tianmen's extermination of the faction is still vivid in my mind!

Such a super powerful sect, a sect that could threaten the imperial court, was beaten to death by the imperial court just because the entire sect practiced the evil sword manual.

What his subordinates are practicing is not evil swordsmanship, but it is also an evil skill.

Once the situation is exposed, his career will be over!

"Military teacher, you are right, we must not repeat the same mistakes! It seems that this matter of grabbing food should not be ignored!" King Jibei waved his hand.

"My lord, in fact, it is still possible to reason!"

407 "Military division, what do you mean?"

Mr. Zhuge lowered his head and smiled and said, "Your Majesty, although we don't want to rob food, we can pretend to cooperate with the Jiangnan King. Once we attack, we will retreat and let the Jiangnan King go to grab the food himself! In this way, it is inevitable that the Jiangnan King will lose troops, but we Safe and sound! My lord, are you satisfied with this plan?"

King Jibei's eyes lit up, clapped his hands and shouted: "What a strategy! This king likes it very much! Haha!"

The King of Jiangnan is his old enemy and a strong contender for his throne. If he loses his army, he will suffer a big loss. He is very happy and supports him strongly.

Mr. Zhuge continued to laugh and said, "Your Majesty, we can also contact the number one scholar in the capital... no, it should be called Mr. Fu Yin now, let him advise the court and make the court prepare! In this way, the king of Jiangnan must be doomed." ,lost heavily!"

The king of Jibei smiled from ear to ear: "Not bad! You must contact Lin Jun and ask him to offer advice and suggestions to the court and kill my good brother, haha!"

So not long after, Lin Beifan received a letter from King Jibei.

After reading the secret letter, Lin Beifan smiled: "Kill someone with a borrowed knife?"

So, in the court hall, Lin Beifan reported the matter to the Empress.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, there is currently a batch of grain being transported from Hulao Pass to the capital. The amount of grain is huge! There is a shortage of grain in the south of the Yangtze River. I suspect that the king of the south of the Yangtze River may take the risk and take the opportunity to plunder! This matter must be guarded against!"

The empress nodded: "Ai Qing is right, this matter really has to be guarded against! Where is the commander-in-chief of Jin Yiwei?"

"The minister is here!" The commander-in-chief stood up.

The empress ordered: "Send someone to keep an eye on the movement of the Jiangnan army, and report immediately if there is any situation! If necessary, you can mobilize the local army to intercept it! There is also the direction of northern Hebei, and don't relax!"

"I obey the order!" The Commander-in-Chief of Jin Yiwei took the order.

"Your Majesty, don't be so troublesome! I have a plan, and I can make the King of Jiangnan lose his troops and lose his money without any effort!" Lin Beifan chuckled.

The Empress's eyes lit up: "Lin Aiqing, speak up!".

Chapter 273 It's okay if you don't come, but if you come, you will definitely become a turtle in the jar!

"The grain transport boats follow the Dalang River from Hulao Pass all the way to the capital. The distance is more than 800 miles! However, if the king of the south of the Yangtze River wants to rob the boat to grab grain, the most suitable location is near Gongxu Mountain."

"Because here, there is a river that leads directly to the south of the Yangtze River. Even if you take the land route, the route is relatively smooth, and it is convenient to transport grain! At the same time, it is far away from the front and rear cities, so it is difficult for the court to rescue!"

"This distance is about 200 miles."

The Empress nodded: "Ai Qing, continue to talk!"

"Gongxu Mountain is the best place to grab grain! But if you want to grab grain, you must prepare enough manpower! Firstly, you need to transport grain, and secondly, you must have enough manpower to deal with the court!"

Lin Beifan raised five fingers: "I estimate that this will require about 5 to 5 troops!"

"To sum up, if the King of Jiangnan wants to rob food, it is very likely that 5 to 6 troops will be dispatched to attack Gongxu Mountain, so as long as we guard this place, we can basically sit back and relax!"

"So, this is the strategy of Weichen!"

Lin Beifan chuckled: "In the name of food protection, we can set up checkpoints 100 miles away from Gongxu Mountain and guard them heavily. No one is allowed to approach, and all pedestrians have to detour! However, we can secretly open a road. Kouzi, as long as you bribe the soldiers, you can let them in secretly!"

"Under such circumstances, if the King of the South of the Yangtze River wants to grab food, he must not send troops here with great fanfare, otherwise he will be exposed in advance, and the gain will not be worth the loss! Therefore, the other party is most likely to pretend to be a passer-by and enter Gongxu Mountain in pieces!"

"But you have to pay to enter Gongxu Mountain! Ordinary people are reluctant to part with money, and would rather walk a little more than pay money! So once he pays the money, it proves that the common people are soldiers of the King of Jiangnan in all likelihood. We can break them one by one, arrest them all, and let the king of Jiangnan lose his army!"

The Empress's eyes lit up: "Wonderful!"

"But what if the Jiangnan King's people don't come?" A minister asked.

"It's okay if you don't come, but if you come, you will be a turtle in the urn!" Lin Beifan said loudly.

"Everyone has a lover, what's the plan?" the empress asked all the officials.

All the officials looked at each other and said in unison: "I have no objection!"

"What to do!" The empress made a decision.

Therefore, heavy troops were sent out, with Gongxu Mountain as the core, 100 miles away, and numerous checkpoints were set up to prevent anyone from approaching.

At this time, a group of court officers and soldiers were dispersing the people on Gongxu Mountain Road.

"This place is sealed, you are not allowed to approach!"

"Why was it blocked?" The common people were puzzled.

The officers and soldiers shouted: "Because the imperial court's grain transport ship is going to pass here! For safety's sake, we have temporarily closed this section of road and river, and no one is allowed to approach!"

"But, we are going to the capital!"

"You take a detour, and you will arrive there in two or three days!"

"My God, why is this...?"

……

The people complained one after another.

This situation was quickly monitored by Jiangnan Wang's spies.

He hurriedly ran back to report: "My lord, something is wrong!"

King Jiangnan came out: "Why are you so panicked, tell me in detail!"

The spies urgently reported: "My lord is like this. In order to escort the grain ship, the imperial court sealed off all the roads in Gongxu Mountain..."

After hearing this, King Jiangnan's face became gloomy: "The imperial court's move is clearly aimed at us!"

Wang Fugui smiled wryly and nodded: "Yes, my lord! They knew we were short of food, and they were afraid that we would have food, so they heavily guarded Gongxu Mountain to guard against us!"

The king of Jiangnan was unwilling: "Is it just giving up like this? Fugui, you should find a way for this king!"

Wang Fugui was also very anxious: "My lord, wait, let me think about it!"

A day later, Wang Fugui came back with a happy expression on his face: "My lord, this subordinate has figured out a way!"

Jiangnan Wang urged: "Speak quickly!"

"My lord, it looks like this!"

Wang Fugui cupped his hands and said: "The subordinates asked people to pretend to be ordinary people to test the imperial soldiers and horses. Guess what happened? They are all very greedy for money. As long as they give three or four taels of silver, the imperial soldiers will secretly let them go!"

Jiangnan Wang's eyes lit up: "There is still such a thing?"

Wang Fugui smiled and said: "My lord, the imperial court is corrupt from top to bottom, big officials are big greedy, small officials are small greedy, and sometimes small officials are big greedy, you don't know that!"

Jiangnan Wang nodded: "That's true!"

"So, here's what my subordinates do!" Wang Fugui laughed softly: "We can let our soldiers and horses pretend to be ordinary people, bribe the soldiers of the imperial court, break them into pieces and enter Gongxu Mountain, and take the opportunity to grab food! "

"They definitely didn't expect that under such strict guard conditions, if there are still people who want to grab their food, they will definitely relax, which will be of great benefit to us!"

Jiang Nanwang nodded again and again: "That's right, that's right, you are absolutely right!"

"In addition, we will send tens of thousands of soldiers outside to respond. Once we succeed in responding internally and externally, we will surely catch the imperial court by surprise and at the same time grab the food back!"

Jiangnan Wang said happily, "Okay, okay!"

"My lord, we can still contact the King of Jibei and act together according to this method! In this way, the court will inevitably lose sight of the other, and our chances of winning will be greatly improved!"

Jiangnan Wang clapped his hands again and again: "You are right, let's do it like this!"

So, he let his elite soldiers pretend to be passers-by and ordinary people who were going to pass Gongxu Mountain.

"My lord, I'm going to the capital to make a living!"

"This place is blocked, you are not allowed to approach, you can detour!"

"Detour? The detour is too far. It will take three or four more days. You may think that I am physically strong, but I am actually very weak! Officer, please do me a favor, please!"

"I'm a principled person, so there's nothing to talk about!"

"Master..."

Jiangnan soldiers pretending to be ordinary people secretly took out a tael of silver and stuffed it into the hands of the imperial soldiers.

The court soldier put the money in his pocket as if nothing had happened.

At this time, several other court soldiers saw it and secretly coughed a few times.

The soldiers in the south of the Yangtze River were very knowledgeable, and each of them stuffed a tael of silver, which was quickly accepted by them.

"It seems that there is nothing wrong with you, so go in! But I told you not to run around, especially not to approach the river, otherwise something will happen, don't blame me for not reminding you!"

"Don't worry, officials and lords, we are all ordinary people and know how to do it!"

The imperial soldiers opened the gate: "Go in!"

"Thank you! Thank you, gentlemen!"

The Jiangnan soldiers who succeeded in bribing went in thankfully.

However, not long after I walked in, I encountered another imperial court soldier, who looked even more elite.

"Don't move! Get down and put your hands up!"

"Masters, you have misunderstood me. I am just an ordinary citizen. I only came in after giving money!"

"It's you people who gave money that were arrested, take them away!"

So, the fake ordinary people couldn't even resist, so they were arrested.

However, the outsiders didn't know it, and the Jiangnan King didn't know it even more, and sent people to throw themselves into the trap continuously.

In just three or four days, the imperial court arrested 5 Jiangnan soldiers.

On this day, Jiangnan Wang was a little excited.

Because the grain transport ship finally sailed slowly into the boundary of Gongxu Mountain, the grain grabbing operation was about to start.As long as he grabs this batch of grain, his food shortage problem will be solved, at least until the harvest season this autumn.

Once the food problem is solved, he can continue to seek the throne again.

This matter is of great importance, and the kings of the south of the Yangtze River have come in person.

Waiting and waiting, very anxious: "` "Why hasn't it started yet? Is something wrong?"

"My lord, there is no rush!" Wang Fugui said with a smile: "The imperial court's grain ship has just entered Gongxu Mountain. It will take at least two days and one night for him to leave Gongxu Mountain. We can wait slowly!"

"Moreover, it is General Zhao Gong who is in charge of commanding the battle! General Zhao has always been prudent. He should choose to attack at night when the troops are sleepy and the defense is lax, so that we can get twice the result with half the effort!"

"As long as we succeed, General Zhao will definitely send out a signal to remind us, so we can act! We should cooperate internally and externally, catch the court by surprise, and grab the food!"

King Jiangnan clapped his hands and said, "Okay! I will wait until evening for your good news!"

"Yes, my lord!" Wang Fugui cupped his hands.

The day time passed quickly, and night finally fell.

The weather is good tonight, the moon is bright and the stars are sparse, and there is a faint breeze blowing, which is very comfortable.

After the Jiangnan King finished his dinner, he became anxious again: "Why hasn't General Zhao sent out the signal yet? Hasn't he succeeded yet?"

"My lord, don't worry!" Wang Fugui said with a smile: "Everyone has just finished dinner and is very energetic, so it's not a good time to make a move! In the middle of the night, General Zhao should be able to make a move!"

"Okay, I've been waiting for him for two hours!" King Jiangnan gritted his teeth and found a clean place to rest with his eyes closed.

Two hours passed quickly.

Jiangnan Wang woke up, looked at the time, and asked the left and right: "Why is there no signal yet?"

Wang Fugui was still very calm: "My lord, everyone is falling asleep now. I think General Zhao should be ready to act. Let's give him a little more time!"

King Jiangnan said loudly: "Okay! I will give him another hour, and if something happens, I will wake me up immediately!"

An hour passed quickly.

No one called, Jiangnan Wang himself woke up, and said in a daze, "Are you ready? It will be dawn if we go any further!"

Wang Fugui was also a little panicked, but he pretended to be calm: "My lord, although he is not healed yet, we have to trust General Zhao, he will definitely not let us down!"

Jiangnan Wang said worriedly: "There has been no news for so long, is something wrong? Let's go straight in!"
