Chapter 389
The incident of Dou Dejian was that Hebei was in chaos at that time. The reason was very complicated. For example, Dongfang Ming was ordered to go to Hebei to conquer Dou Dejian, which led to the forces of the imperial court and the Yuwen family coming to Hebei.
Furthermore, Hebei was not Dou Dejian's one-man show. In addition to Dou Dejian, there were also a large and small warlords with uneven strength. They were all staring at Dou Dejian, waiting for something to happen to Dou Dejian, and then pounced on him and took a bite of the meat.
All forces gathered together to stir up the already unclear situation in Hebei into a muddy water.
Because it is too confusing, the news is difficult to circulate. The true and false rumors are flying all over the sky, and it is difficult to distinguish the authenticity of these news.
Liu Heita was far away in the east of Han, and it was even more difficult to reach out to Hebei to find out the news.
When the news from Hebei came out, Dou Dejian's army had been incorporated by Dongfang Ming. Dou Dejian surrendered to Dongfang Ming unconditionally, and all his main forces were accepted by Dongfang Ming.
Some were poached by other warlords who were eyeing him and left with a small number of their own forces.
The remaining remaining were neither willing to be incorporated by Dongfang Ming, nor were interested in the olive branches thrown out by warlords of all sizes. These people either left on their own or found a master they thought were reliable.
Liu Heita had several former subordinates who came to surrender to Dou Dejian. He took all these people into his subordinates out of friendship with Dou Dejian. From these people, he also learned a lot about what happened in Hebei, including what Dongfang Ming did in Hebei.
Most of the people who were unwilling to surrender to Dongfang Ming chose to fight with him and opposed Dou Dejian when he discussed surrender. Almost all of them were dissatisfied with what Dongfang Ming did and did not recognize Dou Dejian's decision, so they decided to leave.
Many people are prejudiced to Dongfang Ming and look at Dongfang Ming's words and deeds with filters. The things they reposted to Liu Heita themselves cannot be fair and objective. They describe Dongfang Ming as a sinister and cunning, unforgivable bad guy, and use strange methods to deceive Dou Dejian into surrendering in order to gain the power in Dou Dejian's hands.
After successfully getting what he wanted, Dongfang Ming killed the chicken and retrieved the eggs.
Since Dongfang Ming conquered Dou Dejian's army, Dou Dejian himself has never appeared again. He has neither been arrested nor handed over to the court, nor has he appeared around Dongfang Ming. Dou Dejian is like evaporating on earth and has never existed.
All the coincidences led to Liu Heita's belief in these people's words and hatred for Dongfang Mingyao in his heart.
Since the Battle of Dongfangming in Hebei, Liu Heita has been silently observing Dongfangming, who is outside the center of right and wrong. He secretly collected information about Dongfangming and searched for Dou Dejian's traces without giving up. However, the fact is that Dou Dejian really disappeared without a trace.
In this case, unless Dongfang Ming hid Dou Dejian, the biggest possibility is that Dou Dejian has been dealt with by Dongfang Ming and is no longer alive.
The more Liu Heita investigated, the more he hated Dongfang Ming, and at the same time he understood the enemy who killed his friends.
After conquering Dou Dejian's army, Dongfang Ming was at its peak when its power was at its peak. Liu Heita was not good at seeking revenge and becoming enemies with him. So he patiently hid in the dark, observing Dongfang Ming's strength while collecting information about his opponents.
Through this circle, Liu Heita found that anyone who is against Dongfang Ming will eventually be defeated by Dongfang Ming inexplicably or Dongfang Ming suddenly and bravely attacked and turned it into victory.
Among the many people who are enemies of Dongfang Ming, there are not many who have not been defeated by him. Li Erlang, who has still preserved his own strength after fighting with him several times, is particularly conspicuous.
Li Erlang is quite famous. Even before Dongfang Ming became famous, Liu Heita had heard that the two of the four sons in the family of Li Yuan, Duke of Tang, were the most prominent. The second son was young and resourceful, and the third son was born with divine power and martial arts.
Li Erlang had already made a name for his extraordinary intelligence and agility when he was a teenager. Moreover, his ability to escape from the endless strange means of Dongfangming and protect himself is already very well demonstrated.
After Liu Heita's choice, he felt that among the many enemies of Dongfang Ming, only Li Erlang was the most suitable to be his ally. He chose Li Erlang, and Li Erlang happened to choose him too.
Liu Heita was looking for allies, and Li Erlang was also looking for Dongfang Ming's enemies to be his own allies, including all the imaginary enemies with potential possibilities, and he did not let go of them.
With Li Erlang's meticulous thoughts, he knew that Liu Heita and Dou Dejian had a close relationship, and that Liu Heita could not always remain indifferent when something happened to Dou Dejian. Others didn't know, but he knew that Liu Heita had no abnormal movements, which was the biggest abnormal movement.
Originally, Li Erlang was still guessing that Liu Heita was waiting for something or looking for something. When the spy came to report and found that Liu Heita's people appeared in the territory of Daicheng, Li Erlang knew that his opportunity had come.
He sent someone to arrest the spy overnight, and used this person's mouth to convey the meaning of meeting and discussing in detail through Liu Heita.
This is exactly what Liu Heita wants, and the two sides hit it off and agreed to meet and discuss.
While Dongfang Ming was still busy teaching refugees how to farm, Liu Heita had already secretly brought his army to Daicheng. Under the cover of Li Erlang, he hid all his people, and then went to the city lord's mansion alone to conspire with Li Erlang.
No one knew the specific content of the two conspiracy. However, shortly after Liu Heita left the city lord's mansion, several generals under Li Erlang left the mansion and went to Liu Heita's residence.
Regarding this action against Dongfang Ming, Li Erlang does not intend to take action by himself. Dongfang Ming is now in his jurisdiction. If something happens to Dongfang Ming, it is easy to attribute the culprit to Li Erlang.
Dongfang Ming is a strong enemy, and Li Erlang will not look down on him after he treats him as an enemy. What's more, Dongfang Ming's own strength cannot be underestimated by others.
Therefore, Li Erlang naturally would not take action by himself, causing trouble. Once Dongfang Ming's hatred target was transferred to him, Li Erlang knew very well that he might not be able to escape unscathed. So he would not give Dongfang Ming the opportunity to doubt himself.
The two have agreed that Li Erlang will provide information and create opportunities, and give Liu Heita some reinforcements, while Liu Heita is responsible for leading troops to pursue Dongfang Ming.
Dongfang Ming is now surrounded by two people, weak, and now is the best time to attack him. If you miss this time, let Dongfang Ming return to the Sun and Moon God Sect smoothly, they may not be able to find a better opportunity than this and have a higher level of confidence to win Dongfang Ming.
Li Erlang and Liu Heita both agreed that now was a good time to start against Dongfang Ming, so the transaction between the two was unexpectedly smooth. There were almost no disputes, so the terms were reached.
As for who will deal with Dongfang Ming after he is captured, we will decide at that time.
