Chapter 864 Victory decides life and death!
Long Lingxiu's words were sharp and every sentence was heartbroken. Su Zhi's face became increasingly ugly! He felt very frustrated and depressed, very unhappy! Su Zhina's dignified general once controlled the entire Jiangnan situation, but now he was completely abandoned by his family and kept away from all forces in the Central Plains. Why is this?
Su Zhi came from Jiangnan and was a mortal enemy of Lu Zheng. Now all forces in the Central Plains are fighting against Lu Zheng. In this case, Su Zhi was actually rejected. She is really like a dog that is a broken family.
"You are not wrong! The mistake is that you have no strength. If you also have 100,000 cavalry like Lu Zheng, when you arrive in the Central Plains, Your Majesty will definitely welcome you into the city and grant you the pillar of the country!
Unfortunately, you only have 20,000 remaining soldiers, and there are not many remaining cavalrymen. What are you going to fight against such powerful forces as Lu Zheng? You have 20,000 people, which makes Lu Zheng unhappy. I believe you can put your interests in your shoes and think about Su Zhi, right?" Long Ling said quietly.
Su Zhi lowered her head and said, "Your Highness, the princess, has seen all this clearly. What else can I say? Your Majesty has appointed me as King of Henan this time, but I can't step into Henan. It's really ironic!"
He paused, bowed, and said, "Your Highness, the general of the Princess is now at a loss. With this little bit of the ultimate Taoist practice of the General, he really can't find a chance to turn the tables. Now the only way for the General is to surrender to His Highness. From then on, I, Su Zhi, will be the princess. From then on, I, Su Zhi, will be the princess. Wherever your Highness asks Su to go, Su is absolutely right. He should obey His Highness's orders!"
After Su Zhi finished speaking, she knelt down directly, and then her head hit the ground, with a very pious expression. Long Lingxiu narrowed her eyes and stared at him, suddenly burst into laughter, and then she suddenly stood up and said:
"Su Zhi, Su Zhi, you were unknown in the Su family before, but later when Lu Zheng looked at me, I laughed at Lu Zheng for not knowing people! I didn't expect that you are really a talented person, at least you are much better than many people in this way of seeking profit and avoiding harm! I like smart people. Since you are smart, I can give you a way out in the Central Plains!" Long Lingxiu said.
When Su Zhi heard Long Lingxiu's words, she immediately felt a clear mind. He knew that Long Lingxiu was not Long Zhaoyan, and this woman's ambition might be even more than Long Zhaoyan.
For Su Zhi, there is nothing wrong with Long Lingxiu being ambitious. As long as she has ambition, Su Zhi has a future. In the chaos in the Central Plains, it is not easy for Su Zhi to win alone. If she can get the full support of Long Lingxiu, it would be a different matter.
As soon as he thought of this, Su Zhi immediately knelt on the ground and said, "I thank Your Highness Long, Your Highness, what should we do now?"
Long Lingxiu said: "Now we transport grain first, not far from here to Xiangyang. We occupy the southernmost city of Xiangyang in Henan, build high cities and accumulate grain, and then observe the changes in the Central Plains!"
Su Zhi was slightly stunned and said, "But Your Majesty's will is to let me go north. Wouldn't I resist the order when I go to Xiangyang?"
Long Lingxiu chuckled and said, "You can let the Nanfu Army go north. When you look back, you will draw 1,000 troops, claiming to be 20,000 to the outside world. Leave it to a reliable person to go north quickly. You must protect our palace yourself. We will inspect Xiangyang together. In Xiangyang, we will be stable for the time being, and slowly wait for the opportunity!"
When Su Zhi heard Long Lingxiu's words, she immediately smiled and said, "Your Highness the Princess is a brilliant person. Let's do it now! Princess Don't worry, as long as we have enough food and supplies, I, Su Zhi, can train tens of thousands of troops in a short time! When they are in full battle in the Central Plains, our tens of thousands of troops can wait for an opportunity to move. The overall situation of the Central Plains is in our hands sooner or later!"
Su Zhi boasted that she only made herself a famous general who dominated the world. This behavior made Long Lingxiu very happy. In fact, since Long Lingxiu went from Liaodong to Central Plains, she and Long Zhaoyan got along very well on the surface.
However, this kind of harmony is more about the two's interests entanglement, because Long Zhaoyan, the Central Plains, has shallow foundation, strong ministers and weak rulers, and Long Zhaoyan needs Long Lingxiu and his brother to work together to stabilize the situation.
For Long Lingxiu, he had already had a grudge in Liaodong and Tan Lei. Although he had some strength in his hands after he arrived in the Central Plains, it was not enough to make her make trouble in the Central Plains.
In this situation, she had to endure and wait for a good opportunity. Just now, when the Central Plains was facing a huge crisis and test, she waited for Su Zhi. Now Su Zhi is desperate, and Long Lingxiu just took this person for her own use.
In fact, she didn't look down on Su Zhi very much from her bones. However, Xiangyang is a territory she has been operating for a long time, and it is not an empty city.
As long as Su Zhi goes to Xiangyang City, Long Lingxiu will have a way to squeeze out its value. Once Su Zhi is useless, Long Lingxiu can be discarded or deducted, and it can be said that she can be freely restrained and released!
And for Su Zhi, he had the same thoughts? He temporarily defected to Long Lingxiu to overcome the difficulties. Once he was full and waiting for the opportunity, he could go far away and soar into the sky at any time. Anyway, it was not the first time he had done the business of selling his owners for glory.
Nowadays, after the seller asks for honor once, his reputation has become bad anyway. Su Zhi doesn't care about the second time, so the cooperation between the two is typically a collusion!
"Su Zhi, you and I have the biggest common point in common, that is, you and I have a grudge against Lu Zheng! Lu Zheng is our common enemy. Hehe, I'm not afraid to tell you that I have been planning to deal with Lu Zheng for many years! This time, his aggressive uprising seemed fierce, but in fact he was a strong man on the outside and was a powerful man. I predicted that he would not succeed this time!"
Long Lingxiudao.
When he said this, Su Zhi became interested. For Su Zhi, he was really afraid of Lu Zheng. He could not imagine the tragic fate he would face if the Central Plains were captured by Lu Zheng this time.
He felt in his heart that Lu Zheng was extremely likely to succeed, so now, when he heard Long Lingxiu asserting that Lu Zheng could not win, he was inexplicably excited and couldn't help but say:
"Your Highness, you must make sense of this! I will be willing to hear it carefully! Your Highness is relieved. As long as I, Su Zhi, suffer a lot of hardship and suffer a lot of fatigue, will be willing to do it!"
Long Lingxiu chuckled and said, "Lu Zheng was able to survive in Liaodong because of the food routes in the Central Plains and the food routes in Jiangnan. Now that his two food routes have been cut off, the people of Liaodong have rebelled. Lu Zheng would not want to go back after leaving Liaodong. This is the reason why Lu Zheng was defeated first.
Second, don’t forget that Long Lingxiu also came from Liaodong. I didn’t live in vain in those years in Liaodong. When Lu Zheng was in Liaodong, I could tolerate it. Once Lu Zheng was not in Liaodong, hehe, as long as I am willing, I can organize my strength to put him on the attack at any time!
There is another last point. This time Lu Zheng's troops went out of Liaodong, he was sure that the Song family in the Northwest had no power to look east. Hehe, only Long Lingxiu, in the world, can make him miscalculate. Once Zhongyuan is really in a hurry, our palace can quickly mobilize the Northwest army to advance eastward, so that the Song family will have a second battle in Liaodong. Haha, how can Lu Zheng be undefeated by that time?"
Long Lingxiu talked freely, and she was eloquent. The authenticity of what she said was completely unverified, but it has to be said that every point she said was indeed related to Lu Zheng's key points. If these were true, Lu Zheng's attack on the Central Plains this time would be very likely to be in danger!
At this point, Su Zhi was unwilling to bother with the authenticity of Long Lingxiu's words, because from Jiangnan, the thoughts in his mind were all negative. Almost everyone in Jiangnan was optimistic about Lu Zheng's victory or defeat in the attack on the Central Plains. It was in that situation that Su Zhi fell into Long Zhaohuan's trap, suffered a great loss in Jiangnan, and came to the Central Plains in shame.
From Jiangnan to Central Plains, Su Zhi has never heard of Lu Zheng's defeat. Now that he heard Long Lingxiu's argument, he didn't care about how much water there was in Long Lingxiu's words. He just felt that today's meeting with Long Lingxiu was really meeting a true soulmate. The two of them joined forces. Lu Zheng sent troops this time and was most likely to be making wedding clothes for them!
For a moment, Long Lingxiu and Su Zhi were really having an extremely speculative conversation. Then, the two set out the next day, and then the army headed straight for Xiangyang City.
Xiangyang City is located south of the Central Plains, and the city is not big, but this is a place where Long Lingxiu operates after coming to the Central Plains. It is not eye-catching and can be used at critical moments. The most important thing is that after Long Lingxiu moved into Xiangyang City, he could face Long Zhaoyan from north to south across the river. In fact, Long Lingxiu left himself independent from the so-called Daqian Dynasty.
She lives in Jiangnan, far away from the war in the north of the Central Plains. It is typical that she is not responsible for her own affairs. Once she thinks it is profitable, she can send troops quickly. At that time, even if she can't take the Central Plains, she can take Henan first. With the land of Henan, how could Long Lingxiu live like this?
The princess's mansion in Xiangyang is luxurious and noble. Long Lingxiu stands on the back mountain of the princess' mansion, as pretty as a fairy descending to earth. Women like her have envied many people. But for her, the so-called noble and luxurious and unparalleled beauty are all just clouds.
Long Lingxiu only longed for one thing, that is power. Once the taste of power is tasted, it will never be able to let go. In addition, how could the brilliant flowers under Xiangyang City compare to the gorgeous scene of millions of people crawling and kneeling? That situation is what makes her blood rush!
At this time, north of the Central Plains, the war had already started. When the war broke out, the Thousand Miles of Wolf Smoke was the Thousand Miles of Wolf Smoke.
After the Battle of Bingzhou ended, Lu Zheng's army was like a tiger descending the mountain, advancing southward. The troops pointed to only one goal, that is, annex the entire Central Plains.
