MTL - Wei and Jin Cooks-Chapter 727 pie

  Chapter 727 Pie

  Wei Jie and the others did bypass Quzhou County and went to Zhongshan County without stopping.

   It's just that the atmosphere in the team is much more dignified, completely different from the previous briskness.

  The group speeded up, traveling day and night, and arrived in Zhongshan County in the evening of the third day.

   Zhao Xin and Wei Jie first went to meet Liu Kun's brother Liu Xi.

Liu Xi is Liu Kun's spokesperson in Jizhou. They are all from Zhongshan County. Liu's family has many old folks here, and Liu Kun is a celebrity. In recent years, because he has stuck to Jinyang and taken in refugees, he was allowed to join the prefecture in Jizhou. The reputation of the area is even greater.

  Zhongshan County is proud of Liu Kun.

  That's why when Liu Xi was ordered to return to Zhongshan County to convene people to recover Jizhou, he was able to respond to everyone. It was also because of Liu Kun's prestige that Daijun and other places gave up the more powerful Wang Jun and turned to Liu Kun.

   When Liu Xi heard that Zhao Hanzhang had a mission coming, he immediately led his troops to greet him.

  He knew that Zhao Hanzhang and them were allies now. Jinyang’s reinforcements arrived two days ago, and they were able to draw reinforcements because Zhao Hanzhang surrounded Pingyang City and let Liu Cong’s army return for reinforcements.

   Otherwise, he might not be able to defend Zhongshan County two days ago, so Liu Xi valued Zhao Hanzhang's mission very much.

  But he was also curious, why did the mission come to Zhongshan County instead of Jinyang? If there is an exchange of benefits, it should also find Liu Kun, not him.

  He is just a laborer.

   "See Wang Jun?" Liu Xi almost didn't sit still, and asked nervously, "Why does Ambassador Zhao want to see Wang Jun?"

   Zhao Hanzhang will not give up on them and form an alliance with Wang Jun, right?

Zhao Daodao: "Our governor thinks that both General Wang and Governor Liu are ministers of the Jin Dynasty. They really shouldn't attack each other at this time. On the contrary, the Xiongnu are taken advantage of, so our governor sent me and Mr. Wei as envoys to persuade General Wang. Instead of attacking each other, it is better to use the current line of soldiers as the boundary and divide Jizhou into two and rule."

  Liu Xi's eyes flickered slightly, and he hesitated: "Can Wang Jun agree?"

  They don’t have any objections here. Apart from Liu Yuan and Shi Le, they now occupy the largest territory in Jizhou, while Wang Jun only occupies the smallest part of the counties.

In terms of military strength, Liu Kun is not as good as Wang Jun. If the fight continues, Liu Kun must be the one who loses. Although Hedai County and other places have taken refuge in Liu Kun, they are not in high spirits to participate in the war. If Wang Jun insists on not retreating and keeps fighting, It is very likely that they will simply surrender.

  So sums do them more good than harm.

  There is still one thing Liu Xi wanted to say in his heart, but he didn't dare to say it. In fact, if they can coexist peacefully, it's okay for them to give up a county.

  But he was afraid that saying it would hurt morale, so he only dared to think about it in his heart.

  Zhao Daodao: "If it's just to draw a line and rule him, of course he won't want to, but what if we are willing to help him take Qingzhou?"

   Liu Xi's eyes widened, "Qingzhou? But that's not General Gou..."

  Xin Zhao said with a smile: "General Wang also holds the position of governor of Qingzhou, but General Gou has a lot of people, so I'm afraid he forgot about it, so he named General Xiaogou as governor of Qingzhou."

  Liu Xi was apprehensive, swallowed his saliva and said: "But, we take Qingzhou, just in case General Gou is annoyed..."

  Zhao Daodao: "General, Governor Liu and General Wang are attacking each other now. The lawsuit has reached Yuncheng for more than a month, and no conclusion has been reached so far. Obviously, General Gou is not very concerned about this matter."

"General Wang has a strong army, and Governor Liu has a high reputation. With the assistance of our governor, taking Qingzhou is just a matter of hand. This will quell the war between the two places, and twist the three places into one to deal with the Xiongnu. It kills two birds with one stone. It is Your Majesty." I am also happy, and I think General Gou will definitely put the overall situation first."

   Killing two birds with one stone, only Gou Xi was injured, if Gou Xi knew, he would be so angry that he vomited blood, right?

  But Liu Xi agreed after just thinking about it.

  There are Shi Le and Liu Yuan between Zhao Hanzhang and them. It is difficult to send troops to help. They can only use strategies such as encircling Wei to save Zhao and restraining troops. Now that they lack the powerful enemy of the Huns, it does not mean that they can beat Wang Jun.

  If peace talks can be achieved, it is not impossible to send troops to help fight Qingzhou.

  Dead friends don’t die poor Taoists.

  Liu Xi agreed, and said that he would send troops to **** them to negotiate with Wang Jun.

  Liu Xi first sent a letter to Wang Jun on the opposite side, and then warmly entertained the mission.

  He couldn't help but peek at Wei Jie all the time. The other party was really like jade. What if such a person passed by, what if he was bumped into by a villain like Wang Jun?

  So Liu Xi said: "Young Master Wei, it's better to stay in the city and wait for the news, it's still too dangerous outside."

  Xin Zhao: …Isn’t he dangerous?

  Wei Jie shook his head and said: "The letter sent away just now has my signature. I am the deputy envoy of the mission. If General Wang agrees to see us, I will not show up. Wouldn't it be a lie?"

  In the Youzhou Army barracks, Wang Jun did not expect to see any missions, especially Zhao Hanzhang's missions.

After reading Liu Xi's letter, he threw the attached letter from Zhao Hanzhang's mission to the lieutenant general, and said with a sullen face, "Zhao Hanzhang still has the guts to send an envoy to me? Does she really think she can represent the imperial court? Where is it in Yuncheng?" If she hadn't made trouble for me, His Majesty would have appointed me the governor of Jizhou."

  As long as he becomes the governor of Jizhou, Liu Kun will have to withdraw no matter how much space he occupies.

The generals on the side also hated Zhao Hanzhang very much, saying: "The general attack three days ago, if Jinyang hadn't suddenly sent reinforcements, I would have taken Zhongshan County and killed Liu Xi that boy. Because she sent troops to Pingyang County and let Liu Cong, who was holding back Jinyang, leave, General, why don't we send troops tomorrow, and show them in front of Zhao Hanzhang's mission, and let her know that the General and Liu Kun, she has eyes Liu Kun was chosen behind the butt."

  The lieutenant general had already opened the letter and read it. Seeing that Wang Jun was really considering this suggestion, he hurriedly took the letter forward and said, "General, there is Wei Jie in the mission this time."

  Wang Jun frowned, "Hedong Weijie?"

"It's him." The deputy general looked at his face and said carefully: "General, Wei Jie is a famous person in the world. People often say that the third son of the Wang family is not as good as the first son of the Wei family. If the general does not even see him, he will send troops and spread the word. , I am afraid that the world will slander the general."

  Wang Jun was very surprised, "How could Wei Jie be in Zhao Hanzhang's mission? Did he choose Zhao Hanzhang to join him?"

  The lieutenant general said: "It's better to meet them and see what they say. If the general doesn't like it, then find an excuse to go back to them."

  Wang Jun lowered his eyes and thought for a moment, then nodded. He also wanted to see Wei Jie. If he really took refuge in Zhao Hanzhang, he would like to see what Zhao Hanzhang wanted to do?

  Wang Jun thought of many possibilities. Zhao Hanzhang might talk nonsense to him and tell him not to hit Liu Kun; he might mediate between him and Liu Kun and ask them to draw a line and rule...

  He has already thought about the reasons for his refusal. Under Youzhou, to the west is Jizhou, and their Youzhou is the closest place to Jizhou. This area was originally his sphere of influence.

  Liu Kun is an ambitious wolf who dares to touch his Jizhou!

  Back when his parents fell and they couldn’t ask for help, he still lent him soldiers and horses and asked him to rescue his parents, but now he repays his kindness with revenge.

Wang Jun gritted his teeth with hatred, and decided that even if Wei Jie opened his mouth, he would not agree to the peace talks. As a result, when the mission came, he had not had time to recover from Wei Jie's beauty before he was smashed by Xin Zhao. Dazed, "Take Qingzhou?"
