Chapter 586 Arrogant and Arrogant

This time it was Guo Chong who was sent as envoy to the Jin Palace.

After he arrived at Prince Jin's Mansion, he received a very high level of courtesy.

It's just that the King of Jin arrived late, and so did Bai Xingzhi.

Guo Chong noticed that King Jin's face was dark, and his heart sank inexplicably.

After King Jin sat down at the main seat, he asked the waiter to serve tea.

After the two sides exchanged pleasantries, Guo Chong went straight to the topic.

When he reminded King Jin to carefully guard the food and grass in his hands to ensure stable supplies, King Jin looked at him with sharp eyes, "You came here from Dongtai County specifically to remind me to carefully guard the food and grass?"

"Yes."

Bai Xingzhi asked, "Why did you suddenly think of reminding us of this problem?"

Guo Chong immediately informed the two of them of the speculation by the top brass of the Pingzhou Expeditionary Force that Xie Zhan intended to cut off their food and grass supplies.

Bai Xingzhi and Prince Jin looked at each other and sighed, "You're late."

"It would be nice if your news came earlier."

"We also just ended a war over there." Guo Chong told them about Xie Zhance's rebellion against the Cao Gang, Xiang Zhanyuan, and Xiang Zhanyuan's alliance with the Chaos Gang, with the intention of annexing the Cao Gang headquarters.

"Don't worry, this plan has been seen through by us. Our Pingzhou Expeditionary Force has assisted the Caobang Headquarters in repelling the invading enemies. At present, the Chaoshan Gang has retreated to the Beihai and Donglai Sea areas in Qingzhou and is locked across the river."

Hearing Guo Chong say that Xie Zhan had rebelled against Xiang Zhanyuan of the Cao Gang, King Jin and Bai Xingzhi looked at each other. At the granary.

Judging from the timeline, the destruction of Caobang's grain and grass was at the same time as the destruction of their side's grain and grass. From this, it can be seen that Xie Zhan had planned this for a long time.

It's hard to say who was involved in this matter, Xie Zhan attacked them all equally.

"Wait a minute -" King Jin suddenly thought of something, "Is your food and grass okay?"

Something happened to their food and fodder, and Caobang also suffered. Only the Pingzhou Expeditionary Force was safe and sound.

Guo Chong smiled, how should he answer this? Can he say that they don't have much food and grass in Dongtai County? Then Xie Zhan no longer bothers to figure out how to destroy their food and grass?

After Xiang Zhanyuan rebelled like this, Xie Zhan should know exactly how much food and grass his Pingzhou expeditionary force brought with them when they came out.

Then the other party also knew how many troops Pingzhou put into the East China Sea and the approximate consumption of these troops during this period.

Xie Zhan subtracted these consumption from the total food and grass, and he could calculate how much food and grass they brought out was left.

Guo Chong could only say that the betrayal of core members had a huge impact.

"Captain Xie probably thinks that our current food and grass are not worth his money?"

"What do you mean?" King Jin frowned.

Bai Xingzhi winked at his prince and signaled him to say less.

King Jin was stunned for a moment, and then he remembered that Bai Xingzhi once said that the Pingzhou Expeditionary Army was not very rich in food and grass.

He coughed lightly, was the Pingzhou Expeditionary Army so embarrassed?

If nothing happened to the food on his side, he could support them a little, but now, forget it.

After the matter was finished, Guo Chong said goodbye. They were all busy people, so it was enough to finish the matter. Although he did not help, he did not gain anything from his trip.

Before leaving, Guo Chong reminded them, "Xie Zhan is probably going to make a big move, so you should be prepared."

Hearing this, King Jin's face instantly darkened.

Recently, under the strong attack of the imperial army, the King of Jin lost two cities one after another. These two cities were in the south.

When he found that these two cities could no longer be defended, he had not thought of giving them to Pingzhou, but if he gave them to Pingzhou, he would have to lend them a way.

To be honest, he felt that the cooperation between the two parties was not that close yet, and he had to be more careful about Pingzhou. If the other party took advantage of the opportunity to catch the rabbit, then he would be in trouble.

Bai Xingzhi went to see Guo Chong off in person.

"Please stay put. You must have felt the current situation. I think we should support each other and help each other at this time."

"King Jin gave us two cities in Pingzhou, and we in Pingzhou will always remember his kindness. If King Jin needs help, please come to us at any time." Guo Chong hinted.

Bai Xingzhi looked solemn, and he was not optimistic about the current situation.

Jumping out of the game, from the perspective of a bystander, King Jin had little chance of winning against the court.

Since the confrontation between the two sides, King Jin's territory has been slowly being eroded, and now King Jin is just stubbornly resisting.

To this day, King Jin's defeat has become an inevitable trend. This general trend cannot be seen or touched, but it can be felt.

For example, did King Jin treat Xie Zhan’s confidant badly? no. The other party's betrayal lies in the fact that King Jin is weak and that he no longer thinks highly of King Jin.

When you are weak, everyone may become a threat to you, and when you are strong, even your former enemies may become your friends.

After Bai Xingzhi saw Guo Chong off, he walked back while thinking about these things.

After he came back, the first thing he said when he saw King Jin was, "My lord, have you ever thought about the worst outcome of this battle?"

When he asked this question, Bai Xingzhi felt that his voice was a little dull.

King Jin was stunned for a moment, then smiled, "The worst result is death."

really! "My lord, have you not considered in-depth cooperation with Pingzhou?"

Bai Xingzhi thought to himself that if the prince had such thoughts, they needed to make plans early. The more capital you have in hand, the more confident you will be when negotiating with Heping State.

Otherwise, the cards in hand will be played out one by one and consumed when competing with the imperial army. It will be difficult to talk to Hepingzhou again.

"Deep cooperation?" King Jin asked, "The deep cooperation you are talking about is actually attached to Pingzhou, it just has a nicer name."

Bai Xingzhi was silent, but his heart gradually sank.

"In the final analysis, Pingzhou Lu Songli, Qin Sheng and his like are traitors after all."

"My father is Emperor Kangcheng of Shizong of Dali, and my brother is the former crown prince. How can I submit to the traitors of Dali? I cannot bring shame to my ancestors."

Hearing this, Bai Xingzhi stopped trying to persuade him, and a trace of sadness arose in his heart. As a noble nobleman of the emperor, King Jin was full of arrogance and arrogance. To make him surrender to Pingzhou was equivalent to breaking his wings and forcing him to kneel down to survive. Living like this is not what he wants.

Changan

The Sun Jiajun's new army, the baggage team and the worship team are all ready and ready to go.

The night before departure, Mrs. Sun told Wang Dong that the older generation of the Sun family army like her stayed in Chang'an and would not set off with them.

Wang Dong was shocked when he heard this, "Old lady, didn't we agree-"

Wang Dong didn't expect that Mrs. Sun had already planned it.

Mrs. Sun raised her hand to stop him, "The reason why we let them go is to send all these juniors out, so that there is no reason for the elders to worship the younger ones."

Wang Jiang naturally knows how far-fetched it is to take away the older generation like Mrs. Sun for the reasons currently announced to the outside world.

And they stayed to stabilize the court, "Director Wang, don't underestimate the court or the heroes of the world."

Of course Wang Dong knew how dark the undercurrent was in Chang'an during this period.

"Old lady, I understand your concerns, but the current situation is not as dangerous as you think. We can leave Chang'an together first."

"Director Wang, you listen to me on this matter." Mrs. Sun raised her hand and patted his arm.

Speaking of this, Mrs. Sun smiled, and the wrinkles on her face relaxed, "We are already very satisfied to be able to send the younger generation out, so we can't be too greedy."

Wang Dong gritted his teeth. The task on his shoulders is also very heavy, and now the arrow is on the string and he has to take action.

"Mr. Sun, I will send them out first. You must hold on in Chang'an, the governor will not ignore you."

"Okay, take your time, don't force it."

Wang Dong could only harden his heart and make final preparations to ensure nothing went wrong.
