The Military-political Hall of the Feng Country was led by the Minister of the Left, Qiu Zhen, Guo Jue and a bunch of other aides.
Seeing Tang Yin's distribution of manpower, everyone gathered and started to discuss softly. After some research, Military-political Hall's opinion was basically the same as Tang Yin's. They all thought that the probability of this troop distribution being real was greater.
Cai Gui said thoughtfully: "According to the information that we have gathered, the number of people in Mo Country has increased to about three hundred thousand, and the total military strength indicated on this military strength distribution map is exactly three hundred and twenty thousand. This is in accordance with the information that we have gathered. But even so, we cannot let our guard down. Even if our total military power is correct, if the distribution of military power is not accurate, this map will be like a piece of scrap paper. "
Tang Yin nodded, and said faintly: "You're right. Just sit here and do research and analyze, and will never be able to figure out if this military force distribution is real or fake. If you want to figure it out, then you'll have to check it on the spot! "
Qiu Zhen asked: "Your Majesty, you mean ?"
Tang Yin said, "Arrange for Sky Eye and Earth Web to go investigate. You don't have to find out everything, but you have to at least get a few important points, and then you can check the force distribution to see if it's real or fake. "
Qiu Zhen thought for a moment, seemingly having no other way, as he cupped his hands in reply: "Yes! Great King! This humble subject will pass this to General Le and General Ai later! "
Cai Gui laughed and said, "Actually, this troop distribution is very limited to us. The reason the King wants to know whether or not it is real is because she wants to use it to determine whether Peng Cheng is real or fake. If Peng Cheng really wants to surrender, then it would be too beneficial to us, let alone having three hundred thousand soldiers as garrison, even if our Sishui County were to double, we would be able to easily take over the entire county. "
Tang Yin laughed towards the sky, at the same time, he was secretly praising Cai Gui's agility, who had managed to guess his thoughts so clearly.
He didn't say much and said to Qiu Zhen: "This matter needs to be settled as soon as possible. It will only cause too much trouble, if Peng Cheng really descends, we definitely cannot miss this opportunity."
Qiu Zhen said with a stern expression: "This humble subject understands, your majesty does not need to worry."
When he was doing things, Tang Yin was naturally at ease. After giving some instructions, he left behind a map of the troop's strength and led his people out of the Military-political Hall.
On the same day, Le Tian and Ai Jia ordered their subordinates to send a message to the spies on their side who were lurking in the Sishui County, so that they could find out as much of the County Magistrate's troops as possible. If there are places where the defenses are tight and there is nowhere to go, then we must find out where the defenses are lax, and above all, we must be quick.
Under Le Tian and Ai Jia's orders, the spies on the Sishui County and Earth Web immediately took action. They thoroughly investigated the number of troops defending the various places in the Sishui County, and sent all kinds of information back to the Yan City along with the pigeons.
Of course, the two figures could not possibly be the same, there would be more or less differences, but the amounts that entered would not be much, and from this, it could be inferred that the army distribution that Peng Cheng had provided was indeed true.
Upon hearing this conclusion, Tang Yin was very happy. He sent orders to Shao Jun, who was now in contact with him, and as long as the latter was willing to surrender, no matter what condition he put forward, their own side would accept it.
New Mo Country, Cangping. After receiving Tang Yin's orders, Shao Jun did not dare to hesitate and immediately called for Great General Shao Yu to discuss this matter with him.
Although Shao Jun was the Duke of New Mo Country, out of all the ministers, the only one he could trust was Shao Yu.
The imperial courts of the New Mo Country were all controlled by the people of the wind, the Left, Right Prime Minister and the Censors were all people of the wind, from top to bottom, only Great General and Shao Yu stood on Shao Jun's side.
Shao Jun explained the matter to Shao Yu, then said: "Feng King has already assigned this matter to me, but to rope Peng Cheng in, I must send a powerful official to the Sishui County. Nephew, look ? "Who should we send?"
He originally wanted to say that he would send Shao Yu, but he couldn't say these words out loud. Sishui County were a territory of the Mo Country, going there was filled with danger.
Shao Yu was clever, he understood what Shao Jun meant immediately. He was angry and angry at the same time. Even the roots of his teeth were itching. In the entire dynasty, only he and Shao Jun had an uncle-nephew relationship, and only he and Shao Jun stood on the same boat, but now, with such a dangerous mission, Shao Jun chose himself instead of anyone else, it was hard to tell if he had brains or not. He suppressed his anger and rolled his eyes. After a while, he said: "Why didn't the King send Right Prime Minister Lu She over?"
"Oh?" Shao Jun's mouth was agape as he looked at Shao Yu in shock.
Shao Yu explained: "Firstly, Lu She is a lobbyist that is well-known for his Feng Country. It is more than suitable for him to go and meet with Peng Cheng. Furthermore, Lu She was a man of the wind, and did not share the same sentiments as the King. Letting him go to the Sishui County, if he unluckily died there, would not be much of a loss to the King, and would instead take away a thorn in her side. Furthermore, for Lu She to go, it is all thanks to the King. If the matter gets messed up, the Feng Ren himself will have to deal with it, and the Feng King will not blame the King. "
After hearing what Shao Yu had said, Shao Jun was shocked. Listening to the meaning behind his words, he completely placed himself on the opposite side of the Feng Country.
He looked around nervously, but luckily, there were no other people around, and said anxiously: "Nephew, you can't speak carelessly. The one who saved me was the Feng King, and now the one who helped me establish my nation in Cangping is the Feng King. How can you go against the Feng King? "
Shao Yu was so angry that he almost laughed, feeling that Shao Jun still sees him as a good person and views him as his savior! He silently shook his head, it was no wonder that Tang Yin was willing to choose him to be the king of New Mo Country.
He said meaningfully, "If Feng King is truly sincere in helping the King, then she would not exchange all of the court's important officials for the people of the Wind, and allow the King to gain all of the authority!"
Shao Jun explained, "The reason Feng King is doing this is to help me govern ?"
As he lazily continued to argue with, Shao Yu replied sternly: "Uncle Wang, your nephew will definitely not harm you, and what your nephew has said is true. To take over Peng Cheng, Lu She is the best candidate, Uncle Wang just need to instruct him on this matter."
Shao Yu and Shao Jun could not explain their reasoning, and could only persuade Shao Jun out of their affection, and Shao Jun just so happened to eat this, he thought for a while, then nodded his head helplessly and said: "Alright, do as my good nephew wishes, let Right Prime Minister take over Peng Cheng."1
The next day, on top of Morning Meeting, Shao Jun publicly announced this matter.
Regarding the matter of Peng Cheng wanting to turn the tables on him, it had already spread throughout the entire New Mo Country, Lu She had long known about it, although he was surprised, he did not reject Shao Jun's order, after all, on the surface, Shao Jun was still a sovereign. As a subject, he could not be too polite and overbearing, moreover, to him, recruiting Peng Cheng was a chance to earn merits, Peng Cheng did have the intention to turn the tables, persuading him to do so was equivalent to having him capture Shao Jun easily.
Lu She didn't think much into it and agreed on the spot.
After the assembly dispersed, the Left Premier Fan Shan came to look for him. He advised him that he should not take the job, the danger involved was too great. Lu She disapproved, of course he would not immediately head to Sishui County, but would first send someone to scout the place.
That day, he sent his trusted aides and confidants to go to the Sishui to contact Peng Cheng. Furthermore, he had said it very clearly, if New Mo Country truly valued him, then naturally, he would send someone with enough authority to negotiate with him. If he only sent a nameless pawn, even if he turned the tables on the New Mo Country, he would not be given much importance, so it would be better to not lower himself to.
When his trusted aide finally returned to the Cangping and saw Lu She, he could finally report the events of his journey to her. The latter sunk into deep thought and didn't say anything for a long time. It looks like it would be impossible to only send subordinates over, if they wanted to recruit Peng Cheng, they would have to use a high official.
Lu She was still very careful, and before this matter had a hundred percent certainty of success, he did not dare, nor did he want to personally take the risk. He had assigned Da Hong Dian Ye Xiang and Prime Minister Yu Ting to infiltrate's Sishui County and contact him.
This time, he was not sending out a nameless newbie. The Da Hong Dian and the Secretary General Prime Minister, one was of the first rank, the other was of the third rank, both could be considered high ranking officials.
By the time the two of them saw Peng Cheng, the latter's attitude towards them had changed drastically. He treated the two of them as distinguished guests and gave them a warm welcome.
During the conversation between the two, Ye Xiang could feel that Peng Cheng had the intention to turn the tables on him, but there were still a lot of concerns, making it difficult for him to make up his mind.
As a quaddie, Ye Xiang specialized in diplomacy. She was good at observing people's expressions and words. He said with a stern expression, "Master Peng, if you have any conditions, feel free to mention them. If I agree, I will definitely fulfill them."
After hearing that, Peng Cheng's eyes lit up, and slowly asked: "If I say I want to be the Great General, can Lord Ye agree to it?"
Hearing that, Ye Xiang sucked in a breath of cold air. She and Yu Ting looked at each other, then said with a troubled expression, "About this ?" I still need to go back to the capital and see the King, and ask him to decide! "
Peng Cheng nodded his head, such an important matter was definitely not something that a mere Great Circle could decide. He asked with a smile, "I wonder which king Lord Ye would like to consult?"
"Of course it's my King, His Royal Highness the King Mo!" Ye Xiang said as if it was a matter of course.
Peng Cheng shook his head, and said: "That won't do! I want to see the will of the Feng King! In truth, it is not important who can take over me, as long as he is a man of the wind, regardless of rank or position, even if it is a low level official, as long as he has the will of the Feng King, I will surrender. "
He knew that Shao Jun was just a pretense and that his orders were useless. The only thing that was truly useful was Tang Yin's orders, and as long as Feng King agreed to let him become a Great General, that would be a foregone conclusion. No one would be able to change it.
