The most troubled problem of Li Ze about this era is probably the speed of message transmission, the blockage of information, and the poor communication, which will greatly affect the specific implementation of policies and orders. Just like when fighting, you can only think of all possible problems as much as possible at the beginning, and then make some responses accordingly. After the fight begins, accidents will still happen from time to time. At this time, you cannot expect any overall coordination, and you can only rely on the judgment of the generals on the battlefield. Sometimes a heavy rain or a collapse of a road may affect the situation on the entire battlefield. What should you do, but other aspects do not know about such changes.

But sometimes, he likes this information asymmetry very much, because he can use this information asymmetry to get the greatest benefit.

This is a sharp double-edged sword that sometimes hurts oneself and sometimes hits the enemy.

He has done his best to improve the political and military orders in his system. Because no one knows the importance of information better than him, even if he knows the news a little earlier than the enemy, he can still deal the greatest blow to the enemy.

Just like now, he enjoys the benefits of information occlusion.

The news sent by Chang'an has confirmed that in Chang'an, the faction that Zhu Wen and the deposed Tang and independent faction have gained an absolute advantage. Jingxiang's departure has enabled this group of people to find the best opportunity.

Zhu Wen is actually not a person with a dull head, but in the current situation, his extreme desire for the chair has been shattered. Jing Xiang can be regarded as a piece of eternal ice beside him. He can always pour ice water on him at the right time when he is most excited, and use reasonable analysis to calm him down again.

But now, this person is gone.

The change of dynasty means great fame and fortune for the civil and military officials under Zhu Wen. In their opinion, in addition to Li Ze in the north, they are still able to fight, all the towns south of Chang'an are slack in combat. After unifying the south, they will fight the world with Li Ze. At that time, Li Ze was afraid that even the north had not been able to handle it.

With these people's advice day and night, Zhu Wen was finally shaken.

Now, they have even drafted their country names.

Daliang!

Li Ze, who received this news, was so happy that he drank several glasses of wine that day.

At this time, the world was not clear. Zhu Wen occupied Guanzhong and Heluo, and it seemed that the most powerful was. Li Ze occupied dozens of states in the north, and his strength was chasing Zhu Wen. After defeating Zhu Wen with Weizhou and Luzhou, he was even more powerful. But at this time, in the north, Li Ze and his great enemy Zhang Zhongwu were raising their energy. Others such as Ansui, Fengdu, Zhenwu, etc. sent people to Zhenzhou Jin to meet the emperor, but did not express their surrender to Li Ze. In the south, Zhu Wen was still facing the towns of all sizes in the south, and these towns were also waiting and watching.

Some people tend to be Zhu Wen, and naturally some people still have the Tang Dynasty, or they also hope to maintain the status quo. Everyone occupied a piece of land and made their own fortune.

If Zhu Wen adopted Jing Xiang's strategy and set up a puppet emperor, Li Ze believed that Zhu Wen would likely find more allied troops in the south. Everyone could also play happily under the unified banner of the Tang Dynasty.

But if Zhu Wen himself wants to be the emperor, it would be very different.

Everyone used to be the same people, why can you be this emperor? Just because you occupied Chang'an and Luoyang? In terms of wealth, some of the big towns in the south are no worse than Chang'an and Luoyang, and their population is not smaller than there. Although in everyone's minds, the northern Central Plains was still the center of the Tang Empire, the south was no longer inferior to the north at that time. The great development of Huguang and the prosperity of sea transportation all brought huge economic dividends to the south.

Can you be it? Can't I be it?

Even if I don't, I don't want you to be.

Why do you say that Li has been our emperor for hundreds of years? That is the truth. If you respect him, we will not hurt your self-esteem. Are you Zhu Wen the onion?

Of course I won't admit you.

If you want to fight, then come on. Maybe I can defeat you and replace him!

This situation is actually what Li Ze wants to see the most. This is why he wants to make every effort to bring the emperor to his place. Even if it is a clay Buddha that was offered, many people will worship him.

Once Zhu Wen becomes independent, he will inevitably become the public enemy of the world. Even if he can win over some towns, he is afraid that the towns with a little strength will regard him as his enemy.

Called one by one?

At that time, the military strength of the north was indeed better than that of the south, but the south was not as weak as before. It had soldiers and generals and was richer. In addition, there were huge differences in the north and south terrain and climate. I really wanted to knock it over like this one by one, but I was afraid that Zhu Wen would collapse in the end.

With far-reaching friendship and close attack, this provides Li Ze with the opportunity to attack.

Of course, this news must be strictly blocked and Jing Xiang cannot know. Several couriers have been detained on the border, and the inner guards have also arrested batches of secret envoys.

This news, except for a very small number of people, has been hidden strictly under the rule of Wuwei.

Jingxiang had asked to see him several times, but Li Ze avoided him. Now Li Ze is even more prepared to lead all civil and military officials to Zhenzhou to pay homage to the emperor.

Political reform and military reform have been completed at the court level. Of course, there will be some superficial articles to show loyalty to the emperor in order to gain the emperor's recognition.

After a while, I can't come back for ten days or half a month.

Jing Xiang was getting more and more uneasy.

He is a smart man and has discovered that Li Ze deliberately did not see him and was dragging him. If Li Ze was so busy that he could understand that he could not pay attention to him some time ago, then at this time, if Li Ze did not see him, there would be a ghost.

More importantly, after he arrived in Wuyi, a messenger from Chang'an should have reported the corresponding news to him every five days, but now fifteen days have passed, but none of the messengers have come.

"Wu Jian!" Jing Xiang shouted. Something must have happened in Chang'an.

Wu Jian came in with the voice.

"You, go to the Taifu Mansion immediately and ask to see Li Ze again. If you can't see Li Ze, you will do it if you see Gongsun Changming. We will say goodbye." Jing Xiang ordered.

After Wu Jian left, Jing Xiang pondered for a moment and summoned another guard. This guard always looked very ordinary among Jing Xiang's personal guards, but now standing in front of Jing Xiang was obviously different from usual.

"Go and contact all the stakes under our jurisdiction. I want to know what happened?" Jing Xiang ordered.

"Military advisor, this will expose them." The guard hesitated.

"Something must have happened." Jing Xiang took a deep breath, "I want to know more about what happened in Chang'an than they were exposed."

“We can go.”

Jingxiang smiled bitterly: "If Li Ze did this deliberately and deliberately wanted to hold me back, can we leave? Where is this? This is Wuyi. He has a hundred and a thousand ways to delay our itinerary."

The guard left in a hurry.

An hour later, Wu Jian returned dejectedly.

"Military advisor, I didn't step into the gate of the Prime Minister's Office. Their people told me that after the political reform, the people who received us had already been taken over by the Ministry of Rites. I went to the Ministry of Rites again, but the people there told me that their ministers, ministers and other officials would follow the Prime Minister to meet the emperor in Zhenzhou and Jin, and they had no time to see us, so that we could wait with peace of mind."

Although he had expected it, Jing Xiang was still extremely disappointed.

"Military advisor, when I came back, there were suddenly more soldiers patrolling outside the inn, and there were some people in regular clothes. But when I saw it, I knew what they were doing, and they didn't seem to care about exposing their whereabouts." Wu Jian said with some concern. "Is Wuwei going to be detrimental to us?"

Jing Xiang shook his head: "They probably just don't want us to know something. Li Ze still can't do something like killing the envoy. This will ruin his reputation."

Three days later, Jing Xiang finally understood what he had hair.

"Military advisor, our people, have heard the news from Tian An who is still staying in Wuyi." The guard whispered: "For this news, we have paid ten thousand guan."

"What happened in Chang'an?"

"Jingshuai, Jieshuai abolished Tang and established himself, and his country's name is Liang!" The guard said in a low voice.

"What did you say?" Jing Xiang stood up suddenly. Cao Xuan, who was drinking tea, shivered, and the cup in his hand fell to the ground, shattering.

"Is the news true?" Jing Xiang asked word by word.

"It should be true." The guard said: "And, this will not be hidden for long, because the Zhenzhou court will issue a manifesto to challenge Zhu immediately. Tian An was very proud that he sold 10,000 yuan with a news that was about to be made public."

Whether it is Jingxiang or Cao Xuan, how could he care about ten thousand yuan at this moment? The two of them looked at each other and saw a trace of despair and a trace of helplessness in each other's eyes.

"Military advisor, you shouldn't come to Wuyi!" Cao Xuan fell on the chair and said with a wry smile.

"When I left, I talked to Jishuai well, and Dai Shuai is also in Chang'an. How could such a thing happen?"

"Daishuai is the family of Jieshuai's children." Cao Xuan reminded, "or he will stop it, but what if someone tells him that after Jieshuai becomes independent, his son-in-law will become the crown prince?"

Wu Jian said after a moment of silence: "Military advisor, are we going back immediately?"
Chapter completed!
