The world of counterfeit magistrates competes in the world

Chapter 741
Lin Yifan, who returned to Huazhou, in addition to supervising the progress of the navy's construction and various preparations for the Eastern Expedition, he also had to keep an eye on the latest trends of various forces.

In the past two months, Tianyun's situation in Jinzhou has become increasingly difficult.Cao Jun and Haizhou, one east and one south, assembled an army of 50 to attack on both sides.With only 30 soldiers and horses stationed, the Tianyun Army suddenly declined, and had to abandon some areas and try their best to hold on to the key points.

Today's situation in the Central Plains can be described as twists and turns, a major reversal.Originally it was the three parties resisting Tianhua's offensive, but now it is Tianhua who retreats and sits and watches the three tigers fight.Tian Yun had to rely on one move to resist the pressure from all directions.

Faced with such a situation, Tian Yun was forced to try to pull Tian Hua into the battle.Bai Yunting quickly made a decision to abandon the Jinzhou territory and send more troops back for reinforcements.But he couldn't take advantage of Cao Jun and Gu Jiajun, so he sent people to Tianhua, preparing to cede Jinzhou to Tianhua.

Lin Yifan naturally understood the other party's intentions, as long as Tianhua accepted the ceded territory of Jinzhou, he would face the threats of Cao Jun and Gu Jiajun and block the attacks of both sides for him.But I have to say that Tian Yun's decision really made Tian Hua salivate and couldn't bear to give up.If the Golden State is won, Tianhua's military strength can be nailed among the three parties like a nail.In the future, when the war of unification is launched, one army can be stationed to block the way for the two sides to come to help, and focus on attacking Weizhou.Once Weizhou is settled, you can take advantage of the situation and go south to flatten Haizhou.

However, there are also disadvantages to Tianhua. If Tianhua insists on intervening in the Jinzhou war, it is very likely to disrupt the Eastern Expedition.And Cao Jun and Gu Jiajun will never stop there, and the situation will return to the previous stalemate.

Therefore, Lin Yifan immediately summoned everyone to discuss whether Tian Hua would take the bait Tian Yun threw out or not.

In this regard, everyone was at a loss, and there was a big disagreement.

"Your Majesty, I believe that we should accept Tianyun's bait and take Jinzhou down. Even if this will attract Cao Jun and Gu Jiajun's counterattack, our Tianhua Army can completely stop it." Guo Huaili said eagerly, "At that time Without Tianyun's restraint, our army can concentrate its forces to attack Weizhou. With the strength of the two sides alone, our army will definitely be able to win in one battle."

"Mr. Guo's words are wrong. Your Majesty has reached an armistice agreement with Weizhou. If you attack Cao Jun rashly at this time, wouldn't you be breaking the trust of the world?" Han Song immediately retorted, "If you lose the trust of the world, then my Tianhua has accumulated ten years. The reputation of the two states will be wiped out, and the loss will be far greater than the gains of Jinwei and Weizhou."

"Master Shoufu, how can Cao Jun give up when our army wins Jinzhou?" Guo Huaili said in a sinister way, "As long as the opponent strikes first, our army will be famous. Besides, even if the opponent refuses to strike first, So what, as long as we firmly insist that the other party violated the agreement, how will the world know what is right and what is wrong?"

"Hmph, this is the way of a villain, not the way of a king." Han Song suddenly became angry, and shouted in a deep voice.

"Hey, in a world of great contention, you should use extraordinary means. The way of the king can be practiced after the unification of the world." Guo Huaili sneered, "The most important goal of my Tianhua now is to complete the unification of the world as soon as possible, so that the people can avoid Because of the suffering of war. As for the means used to achieve the goal, it is not important."

"you...."

"Okay, here is a discussion, not a quarrel." Lin Yifan shouted in a deep voice. He also felt a headache about this. From the very beginning, Han Song and Guo Huaili disliked each other. Ten years have passed. There are still many contradictions in some concepts and cannot be reconciled.

"Your servant is guilty." The two confessed in a hurry.

Lin Yifan stopped looking at the two of them, and immediately looked around at the rest of the people, "My dear friends, do you have any suggestions?"

"Your Majesty, I believe that Tianyun's actions are malicious, and I, Tianyun, can completely ignore them and continue to wait and see." At this time, Chen Dengke stood up and said, "Jinzhou is already corrupted, and I, Tianhua, Taking over at this time is actually taking over a mess. If we put not much energy into Jinzhou, it will definitely affect our army's plan for the eastward expedition. Therefore, I think that Tianhua can restrain the balance of power among the three parties, but we cannot rush Get involved."

Lin Yifan nodded slightly, "Well, what Ai Qing said is indeed reasonable. Do you have any other suggestions?"

Ye Hongyu stood up slowly, and said in a deep voice, "Your Majesty, I fully agree with what Lord Chen said just now, Jinzhou, I, Tianhua, really can't touch it. But Leizhou, we can think about it."

When everyone heard the words, they couldn't help but concentrate and think about the stakes.

Following Ye Hongyu's train of thought, Lin Yifan also had some ideas in his mind, and immediately said with a smile, "What clever plan does Ai Qing have, please tell me quickly."

Ye Hongyu immediately said with confidence, "Your Majesty, the situation in Yun's country is very difficult today. Now that the Central Plains is being attacked by both Cao and Gu, in fact, they will not be able to hold the Central Plains sooner or later. Therefore, Tianyun wants to use Jinzhou as a The bait, lures us into the bait. We can withdraw to defend Leizhou, and mobilize reinforcements to return to the country. And the situation in the Central Plains, as they wish, can be caught in a three-way struggle and buy time for them to quell the chaos. In this case, why don't we do the opposite In other words, force him to abandon the Jinzhou and Leizhou states, and completely withdraw from the Central Plains. Our army gave up Jinzhou and only took Leizhou to completely block the passage of Tianyun into the Central Plains. The turf that they are competing for, the two alliances, will immediately turn into two enemies against each other. At that time, all parties will fall into disputes, and I, Tianhua, will be able to fight eastward with all my strength without any worries."

"Haha, Aiqing's strategy can be said to kill three birds with one stone, a clever plan, a clever plan." Lin Yifan laughed and said, "I, Tianhua, can not only get the land of Leizhou, but also make Tianyun completely withdraw from the Central Plains, and let Cao The two Gu families are fighting each other, constantly consuming their strength. Ladies and gentlemen, do you think this plan is feasible?"

"The ministers and others seconded the proposal." Everyone was very impressed, and they expressed their opinions immediately if they had any opinions.It has to be said that Ye Hongyu's way of dealing with people is really extraordinary. In the court, he is not easy to offend others.

In this regard, Lin Yifan was happy to see the success.Today, there are inevitably some factions above the Tianhua Dynasty Hall, which are generally divided into three major factions.One faction is headed by Han Song. According to his private division, they can be regarded as conservatives.However, the strength of this faction is not too strong, but with the support of Han Song as the chief assistant, it has a great influence among the civil servants.

The other faction is headed by Guo Huaili and belongs to the radical faction.Its strength is the strongest in the Tianhua Dynasty Hall.This is why Guo Huaili, as the Minister of Educational Affairs, dared to challenge Han Song.Without him, because Tianhua is determined to forge ahead now, radicals can get the most support, spanning both military and political circles, and nearly half of the cabinet members are his supporters.

The last faction belongs to the neutral faction. They do not participate in the struggle between the two factions, and everything is based on actual considerations.They usually don't show their mountains and dews, but they are the ones who are really the most powerful.Often some of their suggestions can attract the other two factions to defect.People such as Ye Hongyu and Chen Dengke are the leaders of the neutral faction.
