Chapter 33 Inside and Outside the Siege
This time-out time is unintentionally containing the irony and sentimentality of life, deeper than all languages and all laughter.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------�
Fang Hongjian is a passive, incompetent, unstable person, unable to withstand temptation, and even more a failed person. His failure is because he lacks the rationality, belief, enthusiasm and strength to confront him in the face of the cruel competition for survival and serious mental crisis in modern society. It is also because he is not a despicable person, he is a little self-aware, and sometimes he wants to maintain a little dignity of being a human being.
This kind of life is an embarrassing life, and we can see more or less our own shadow in him.

After returning to our residence, we began to discuss the information we got from Zhao Deyan. I believe this guy is absolutely serious. He must have great plans to trap us in Tongwan City.
According to our understanding of Zhao Deyan, in addition to being ruthless, he is also good at engaging in power. The situation of the tribes on the grassland was not as tense as it is now. It was because of Zhao Deyan's arrival, which helped Jie Li win over, divide and suppress the tribes, thus causing a situation where everyone is in danger.
Of course, this can greatly consolidate Jie Li's power and authority, but at the same time it also makes other tribes on the grassland interfere with Jie Li, which makes Jie Li lose the support of most tribes, and Chu Li can take advantage of the situation and compete with Jie Li.
In other words, Zhao Deyan moved the Central Plains to the grassland, but did not take into account the traditions already found on the grassland, so that these policies were somewhat unacceptable to the local conditions, which caused Jie Li's current crisis. This is a typical example of the inability to combine theory and practice well.
The counselors in the Central Plains are best at power and strategy. These guys are all famous for their insidiousness. Just look at "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" and you will know that the whole article talks about the power and strategy of strategy, which fully writes the industry of strategy and fully.
Then Zhao Deyan is currently facing a crisis of trust. Of course, Jie Li may not blame him. After all, he is thinking about Jie Li, but other tribes will have some ideas. At this time, they need to divert the current contradictions. The best way is to launch a war to the outside world.
And Zhongyuan is their best goal!
"The Turks trapped us here just because they didn't want us to inform us, and they could also restrain some forces in the Central Plains to win over when necessary." After analyzing the above reasons, Wanwan concluded.
"The first thing they were invading the south was Li Tang, which was very beneficial to us. According to our original plan, the Turks were also allowed to hold Li Shimin back, and then we went to attack Luoyang. Zhao Deyan did not need to trap us, but should let us go. This would be beneficial to the Turks and the Holy Sect." I was puzzled.
"What if Li Tang released the Turks into the Central Plains?" Wanwan asked back.
"This... won't be?" I said in surprise.
This is something I have never thought about, because I always feel that people cannot be so shameless. There is a reason why Wu Sangui leads Qing troops into the pass, but if you think about it carefully, these powerful heroes have no moral bottom line, so it is not surprising that they do anything.
Once the Li Tang released the Turks into the Central Plains, Dou Jiande was the target of the impact. If Dou Jiande crossed and the Turks rushed in, they could fight to the south bank of the Yangtze River. The entire hinterland of the Central Plains would become a Turkish amusement park, and ordinary people would be the biggest victims.
The Turks would not stay in the Central Plains for a long time. When they robbed and killed and played enough, they would still retreat to the grassland. When Li Tang came out to clean up the mess, Li Tang got a large area of territory south of the Yangtze River without any effort, and the people would be grateful to them.
Compared with the whole world, what is the common people worth? It’s just a bunch of consumables.
Judging from the relationship between Zhao Deyan and Li Jiancheng, this situation is really possible, which is beneficial to Li Tang and Li Jiancheng.
The so-called success and defeat of the enemy. After Li Tang gained the country, history was not rewritten by them. In history, they would only say that they defeated the Turkic army and restored the Central Plains, but would not mention the fact that they placed the Turkic army into the Central Plains.
Just like the high evaluation of Li Shimin in history, Yang Guang always compares it as a negative textbook. From this, we can see the flattering faces of the historians of the Tang Dynasty and the shamelessness of later historical researchers. From the perspective of historical achievements, Yang Guang achieved much greater achievements than Li Shimin, but Yang Guang failed in the end.
I still can't adapt to this cruel world!
"Is this situation rare?" Wanwan said sarcastically, "Since the demise of the Sui Dynasty, who has resisted these forces every time the Turkic invasion south? Li Yuan also surrendered to the Turkic at the beginning, but he became the emperor and began to cover up his shame in order to take into account his face."
"Okay, then what should we do?" I asked helplessly.
The current situation is that the entire Tongwan City is surrounded by tens of thousands of Turkic troops. Even if it is powerful, it cannot achieve the enemy of ten thousand people. The scene of thousands of arrows being fired at the same time is not a joke, it will really kill people.

We did not discuss any results, because everything was futile in the face of absolute strength.
We were at a loss in the city, and the tribal chiefs outside the city seemed to be discussing something. The only good news in the past two days was that Ba Fenghan recovered and was practicing according to the mantra of the "Sun Change Method". With the "Eternal Life Art" of Shuanglong, I believe that I will recover soon, and Zhu Yuyan did not attack them.
When I came back from Ba Fenghan, I saw an unexpected person. It turned out to be Song Shidao, the second son of the Song family. This really surprised me, and what surprised me even more was the news he brought.
Meixian and Boss Bai are on a Gobi Desert not far from here.
"This is how things happened. I came to the Jianghuai Army because I had business. Then when I heard about you being trapped on the grassland, General Bai and Mrs. Dongming decided to bring people to rescue you. My sister and I were just a coincidence." Song Shidao said slowly.
"We just arrived on the grassland when you received the news." I pondered, "Have you seen Yang Xuyan?"
"Shadow Assassin?" Song Shidao said in surprise, "We didn't meet it."
"What about the situation in Jiangnan? What is the movement of the Poyang Gang?" I asked anxiously.
"We rushed out of the Great Wall all the way, and did not pay attention to the situation in Jiangnan." Song Shidao replied, "Will there be any changes in Jiangnan?"
If what Song Shidao said was true, then the fact should be like this. When we first arrived at the grassland, Meixian and Boss Bai, who were in the Jianghuai Army, received a false news, that is, we were trapped. This was actually a plan to adjust Meixian or Bai Qing'er. The person who said this news must be a person worthy of their trust, and it is likely that he was an elder of the Yingui Sect.
This was done to create a chance for Yang Xuyan to assassinate Boss Bai. Unexpectedly, Boss Bai suddenly decided to come to the frontier in person, which made Yang Xuyan lose his life. This was really an unexpected joy. At least Boss Bai had no worries about his life.
So the only thing worth worrying about now is the situation in Jiangnan. Can the Jianghuai Army withstand the attack of the Poyang Gang? What's going on with Senior Sister Qing'er now?
After relocating the Song Master Road, we welcomed another uninvited guest, who turned out to be Liexia, the leader of the Five Mingzi, the reign of the Ming Dynasty.
