"That's true, but on the surface, both of our families are aligned with the Heaven and Earth Society."
"But the situation is unclear right now. Before news comes from above, no one will take the initiative to defect to the Heaven and Earth Society."
"Currently, in Yanzhou City, whether it's the officials or the wealthy merchants, they are all taking a wait-and-see attitude. At most, the governor has issued a notice strictly prohibiting the Heaven and Earth Society from causing trouble in the city."
"This is also to give the court an explanation in case the heavens and earth fail and are suppressed."
"Without the government's control over Yanzhou, the situation wouldn't be as optimistic as it is now."
Liu Feng nodded.
That's true. After all, although Yanzhou had the Heaven and Earth Society, it was still the territory of the Great Li Dynasty, and the imperial court still maintained basic control over the area.
It's just that this control has become weaker and weaker under the constant corruption of the Heaven and Earth Society.
If the emperor doesn't send anyone to Yanzhou, the disorganized people of Yanzhou, coupled with the Heaven and Earth Society's open rebellion, will soon spread like wildfire throughout the entire prefecture. In just a few days, the entire prefecture will be completely overthrown.
Youzhou is different from Yanzhou. Youzhou was a place where the emperor farmed and defended, and the governors there carried imperial swords.
From the very beginning, the emperor was well aware that Yanzhou was difficult to control, so he placed two spies in Youzhou in advance: Qian Mu and Linghu Zheng, one to guard the gateway to Qingzhou and ensure the safety of the Central Plains.
One in Tianyong City can guarantee the safety of the entire Youzhou.
Even if they cannot be saved, their presence can buy a lot of time for the imperial court to provide support.
The current situation is that Linghu Zheng has run into trouble, so Liu Feng has replaced him as the leading man.
It's still the same pit of fire, only the people jumping in have changed.
In fact, Liu Feng's fighting ability is even stronger than Linghu Zheng's.
In Yanzhou, however, the emperor made no such arrangements; there were regular garrison troops there.
The emperor may have already foreseen the possible situation in Yanzhou.
Therefore, the key now lies in the emperor's attitude, which will determine the course of this matter.
"I asked a question I shouldn't have asked."
"Boss Liu, no, General Liu, what is your attitude towards the Heaven and Earth Society now? What do you think of their rebellion?"
"Are you going back to fight against the Heaven and Earth Society?"
Zhang Baodong asked the question cautiously.
"To be honest, both of our families have some other rumors."
"As far as we know, the Heaven and Earth Society and the Tiger Roar Army have clashed more than once or twice."
"Moreover, the Heaven and Earth Society has never gained any advantage over General Liu."
Having said all that needed to be said, Zhang Baodong saw no need to continue.
Liu Feng squinted, seemingly deep in thought, then suddenly burst into laughter.
So you were waiting for me here, testing me?
