The sun rises in the east and I am the only one who is invincible
Outside the city of Yanjing, Liu Buqi was still wearing his iconic attire. In order to fit his fantasy image of "Invincible Easterner", he even asked someone to move some documents in front of him.
He supported his head with his clenched fists, crossed his legs slightly, and looked deeply at the city of Yanjing in front of him.
This pose! The only flaw is the lack of a lyre, so play a tune yourself! Or hold a round fan in your hand and embroider on it stitch by stitch.
Unfortunately, Liu Buqi can neither play the piano nor embroider, so she can only pretend to do so and pay tribute to an era that has long gone in her memory!
At this moment, she was in a particularly good mood. The newly appointed Youzhou Governor Gao Yi was standing respectfully behind her, and must be looking at her with admiration!
Gao Yi was indeed looking at her with strange eyes. His wife had just returned to Youzhou, and she had solved all the difficult and complicated problems that had troubled him and Wang Changling for almost half a month without bloodshed!
Although they had given up Yanjing, they had recovered Taixiang Prefecture, and Taiping Prefecture was now surrounded! If it weren't for Madam's strict order to surround but not attack, I'm afraid it would have changed hands long ago.
At the beginning, I still had many doubts about what I said to Liu Buqi: "If you keep the land but lose the people, both the land and the people will be lost! If you keep the people but lose the land, both the land and the people will be saved!"
But judging from the current situation, giving up the dead city of Yanjing liberated Wang Changling's army and revitalized the Youzhou chess game!
Following the order, he "lured" the Taiping Prefecture army to the Great Wall, and then immediately led the army back to the outside of Yanjing City.
I saw the lady making a strange gesture here! I don’t know what she will do next!
As for Wang Changling, who was standing next to him, since he had known Liu Buqi for a longer time, he had developed a certain degree of immunity to her eccentricity.
For the entire morning, the three most powerful people in Youzhou stood like fools outside the city of Yanjing, neither attacking nor retreating, and remained silent!
In the city of Yanjing, although the supporting troops from Taixiang Prefecture have entered the city, there are only the civil officials who do not understand military affairs.
Generals Taiping and Taixiang, as well as the personal soldiers and generals they brought with them, all knew this very well!
There is no possibility of relying on these troops to defend the isolated and helpless city of Yanjing!
No matter how great your strategies are, if you have no soldiers to use and are facing the current situation of being surrounded by enemies on all sides, you can only sit and wait for death!
Especially the woman who was sitting leisurely at the foot of the city this morning. It was obvious that she was trying to catch someone in a trap. Her attitude of not caring about others was really infuriating!
But I am at the mercy of others, and it is wishful thinking to expect the court to rescue me!
Expect to save yourself?
The imperial envoys and literati in the city may still be dreaming of mobilizing the people to defend the city together!
But these military experts have long realized that they are sitting on a powder keg that is ready to explode!
Did Wang Changling's painstaking efforts of more than 20 years go to waste? Some people in Yanjing might not know the name of the current emperor, but they definitely knew who Wang Changling was!
The imperial envoys can be ignorant and fearless, but these soldiers and generals must find a way out!
…
As the saying goes, when you are sleepy, someone will give you a pillow! The generals of Taiping Prefecture and Taixiang Prefecture, who were trapped in a dilemma in Yanjing, received invitations from Zhu Caicai, the deputy envoy of commerce and administration under the command of the Youzhou Commander-in-Chief!
As the only one of Yue Lingxi's men left in Yanjing, Zhu Caicai's recent life can be described as full of ups and downs!
Wang Changling fled to Beijing, where he was completely suppressed and defeated! A messenger from Beijing entered the city, and he was arrested and thrown into prison!
When Taixiang's army entered the city, he was inexplicably released!
If I hadn't received Liu Buqi's letter in advance! I had great faith in this woman who brought me the opportunity to bring honor to my family!
I'm afraid this terrifying experience is enough to cost him half his life!
However, wealth and honor are achieved through risk! Today, Liu Buqi appeared outside the city. It was time for him to make a brilliant appearance, turn the tide, and save the soldiers and civilians of Yanjing from the suffering of war!
…
Yanjing Victory Tower!
The two generals came here at the same time to meet Zhu Caicai!
After a cup of tea and a few pleasantries, it’s time to get down to business!
"My wife said to leave some room for error so we can meet again in the future! Now we just need to give the two generals a way out."
Zhu Caicai faced these two big shots who were high and mighty to him just a few years ago with a smile on his face.
The two generals looked at each other. Although they felt awkward with Zhu Caicai's grammar and vocabulary, they could still roughly understand the meaning!
The General of Taiping Prefecture spoke first: "Master Zhu, please tell me, what kind of escape route do you plan to prepare for us? Is it surrendering to Lord Yue?"
Zhu Caicai continued to reply with a smile: "General, you are joking. You are the Prince Regent's man. This small temple in Youzhou can't accommodate you!"
"My wife said that as long as the general is willing to give up Yanjing, all the 50,000 former generals in Taiping Prefecture who are willing to follow the general can go south with him."
"Also, the general can take whatever military rations are in Taiping Prefecture at will. Even if they are all taken away, it doesn't matter!"
General Taiping silently calculated that as long as he had the army and food, he would still be able to maintain his position in the Tiance Palace.
Especially now that the imperial court and Guannei Hou are in a standoff, this fresh force, with a large amount of food, will be enough to make up for the mistakes made in Youzhou this time!
Liu Buqi proposed this condition with great sincerity!
General Taixiang on the side thought about it and realized that General Taiping could be regarded as a commander without troops now, but at least he still had an army in his hands!
"I don't know, what is the excuse Madam Liu gave me?"
Wang Changling chuckled coldly, "My wife said that the general is the emperor's man. His Majesty is rich and powerful, so why would he care about such a small loss?"
"General, if you are willing to spare Yanjing from the war, I will give you your three concubines, children, and all your wealth in Taixiang Mansion. I, Zhu, will also personally donate a thousand taels of gold. You can live out the rest of your life in anonymity."
"General, if you're not willing, let's have a fight with swords and spears. Let me make it clear, regardless of success or failure, your family, you probably won't see them again in this lifetime!"
General Taixiang was furious. He stood up and was about to slam the door and leave. Zhu Caicai did not try to stop him. He just looked at General Taiping with a smile, as if waiting for his reply!
"Okay! I admit defeat! I will no longer interfere in the affairs of Yanjing!" General Taiping compared the conditions of General Taixiang at this time and felt that he was getting a great bargain!
Judging from Zhu Caicai's attitude, if I don't agree, I'm afraid I'll be suppressed a lot. Once I become a whore, I won't care about the reputation!
Zhu Caicai immediately stood up and high-fived General Taiping to swear an oath! They began to discuss the next steps!
General Taixiang, who was about to leave, was in a dilemma! Taiping was in turmoil, and he was alone and powerless. After thinking it over, he sighed and returned to the table.
"Master Zhu, can we talk again?"
