Invincible son

Chapter 861 860 [The ground is like a chess game]

Pei Yue was able to reach his position today because of countless times of strategizing, from the very rough Hengduan Mountain bandit suppression at the beginning to the recent Jiangling battle where he predicted the enemy's opportunity first, his ability to plan has become more and more powerful. Mature.

Even though he was confronted with a complex situation with a huge framework, he still showed no signs of timidity or fear. Instead, he gradually became excited, and his tone rose involuntarily: "If you want to make the emperor afraid, you must control enough resources, from point to line. Finally meet."

Mr. Xi smiled and said: "Next the emperor may suppress you, or leave you idle for a while, but he will not kill you for the time being, because the world is not yet peaceful, and he still needs your magic weapon. Use it Take this time to extend your influence."

Pei Yue murmured: "Follow Pei Yuan's old story?"

This is what Mr. Caixi said just now is why Pei Yue is so powerful. Even if the relationship with Guliang is aside, the military achievements he has distributed in the past few years have benefited too many people. favor.On this basis, concentrating on managing contacts may not be possible to reach the height of Pei Yuan back then.

At that time, it may not be possible for Pei Yue to ask them to raise the flag to rebel, but if it is just for self-protection, even Emperor Kaiping will think twice, let alone a successor.

Pei Yue couldn't help thinking of Tang Youzhi who was far away in Lingzhou.

Mr. Xi knew this disciple very well, and said bluntly: "Tang Youzhi can at most help you defend the foundation of the Tibetan Front Guard, but it is difficult for him to connect a force in the Western Army. You might as well think about what the emperor did after the Battle of the Western Region was over. series of arrangements."

Pei Yue was startled, and slowly said: "Now the commander of the Longbow Camp is Nan'an Bo Su Wu. I remember that his third son is named Su Ping, and he has a very close relationship with Peicheng. Qi Yun is guarding Hucheng. Hou Yinwei, the Qi State Mansion and the Ding State Mansion have always been friends. These two martial arts can be regarded as family friends of the Pei family, and the emperor's pardon of Pei Rong may have something to do with this relationship."

He took a sip of the teacup, and his expression became serious: "After Luo Huanzhang was transferred to be the commander of the Southern Camp of the Beijing Army, the Jinshui Camp in the Western Region was taken over by Nanxiong Hou Zhao Xian. This should be the emperor's confidant, just like Xiao Jin and the guards of Jiangling. Baoding Bo Caiqian. As for Dingxi Daying Commander Runan Hou Liu Dingyuan, I have studied this person's resume, and he seems to have no special tendency."

Mr. Xi said leisurely: "In the 15th year of Zhongzong Jianping, Wang Pingzhang saved Liu Dingyuan's life in the battle of Jianhu in Dingzhou, but few people know about it."

Pei Yue suddenly said: "It turned out to be his."

Mr. Xi said: "You reversed the victory in the western region and made Tang You one of the top fighters in the army. Of course he will accept your favor. Let Tang Linfen enter the Tibetan front guard to show his attitude. But because of this, the emperor will not Sit back and watch you turn the western frontier army into your own territory. It only takes a series of simple transfers to disperse and weaken your contacts. Only a newly promoted Tang Youzhi can help you do some things when he occupies the righteous name. But people like Liu Dingyuan and Yin Wei cannot be driven at will."

There was a chill in Pei Yue's heart, a mystery that had been pressed in his heart for a long time finally had an answer.

At the beginning of the year, he returned to Kyoto with the power of a great victory, and witnessed Wang Pingzhang's proposal to streamline the Western Army at the court meeting, which caused a storm.At that time, Pei Yue thought that Wang Pingzhang wanted to recommend Li Bingzhong as the governor of Lingzhou. Although the official position of military and political power fell to Tang You in the end, the streamlining of the Western Army and the transfer of the generals of the battalions were carried out smoothly.

Pei Yue's face was a little ugly, and he said slowly: "It turns out that Wang Pingzhang wanted to cut off my retreat. At that time, the emperor was clearly suppressing him. The two actually had such a tacit understanding."

Mr. Xi said calmly: "This couple has known each other for decades. Although there are power struggles, Wang Pingzhang understands the emperor's temperament very well. When necessary, he will let go of his resentment and cooperate with the emperor's actions. But you don't need to be disappointed because of this, even if When you realized it at the time, you couldn’t oppose this conspiracy.”

"Mr. is right. The emperor and Wang Pingzhang are indeed more sophisticated. But the mulberry elm harvested in the east is not completely lost in the west." Pei Yue quickly adjusted his mood and smiled slightly: "The Tibetan front guards are extremely powerful. Most of them are from Lingzhou, and Tang Youzhi is enough to help me stabilize the base. Besides, he has three guards under him, so it would be a pity if these 4 people were not used to make a fuss."

Mr. Xi was slightly taken aback, and then said in surprise: "You actually made arrangements."

Pei Yue said with embarrassment: "It's not considered a prophet. It's just that according to the emperor's intention at that time, the downsized Western Army soldiers were supposed to be supplemented into the Lingzhou Xiang Army. Of course, Tang Youzhi wanted to keep the elite of the original Longbow Battalion, just right. These soldiers and I have had the experience of living and dying together."

Speaking of the rise, Pei Yue stood up and paced back and forth, "It's not enough, I can't waste Tang Youzhi's chance to govern Lingzhou. In addition to Qinyuan, Xiangyun must be stationed in Lingzhou. Only when the local gentry and common people are closely connected can we weave a giant net with me as the core."

Mr. Xi clapped his palms and said with a smile, "This is your way to break the situation."

Pei Yue stopped, turned around and looked at the middle-aged man, his face became more and more exciting, like a lightning bolt exploding in his mind.

After coming to this world for so long, he has already forgotten what he is best at.

When he was in Luliuzhuang, Pei Yue decided to join the army instead of running a business. It was because he knew that he was weak and had no power to protect himself. Even if he made a fortune, he would only make wedding dresses for others.But it is different now, what the emperor cares about is the military power in his hands, if he shifts his focus to the way of merchants, Emperor Kaiping may wake up laughing from his dreams.

However, those people could never have imagined how terrifying a Xiangyun has penetrated into every aspect of society.

For example, in the Chen family back then, Emperor Kaiping and Wang Pingzhang regarded Chen Qingchen as a serious problem, but they only focused on the late emperor's love for Chen Qingchen, thinking that killing this strange woman would solve the problem.However, until Chen Qingchen passed away more than ten years ago, her legacy can still help Chen Xizhi stir up the situation.

After several years of observation and analysis, capital sprouts have just appeared in some places in Daliang. What is placed in front of Pei Yue is almost a clean white paper, which can be painted and sketched by him.

With the Xiangyun as the carrier, he gradually holds the economy and the people's livelihood in his hands. Even if he does not rush to the next stage, he can still control the context of this society, and even have the ability to shake the dynasty's rule in the future.

Of course, to do this, the conditions required are very harsh.

First of all, the roots must be strong enough to break through the obstacles formed by the state officials. This is obviously not difficult for Pei Yue now.As Mr. Xi said, until the world is in peace, Emperor Kaiping will not cut off his arms. At most, he will stop Pei Yue's rising momentum and add some beatings.

Secondly, enough talents are needed, and Pei Yue also has no worries in this regard.The management of Xiangyun, with the children of Lvliuzhuang as the core, is 100% loyal to him. Coupled with the experience of the past few years, they only need a little advice from Pei Yue. Every corner of the five states.

The last and most important point is that Xiangyun needs a wide variety of commodities that can cover the entire society. This is precisely the biggest advantage of Pei Yue as a time traveler.

After sorting out these thoughts, Pei Yue said with admiration: "Mr. wakes up the dreamer with one word."

Mr. Xi smiled and said: "During this time, you were leading the army to fight on the South Bank, and I went to find out the details of the severe drought in Qinzhou. Without the support of your Xiangyun, it would be difficult for Han Gongduan to solve this problem. At that time, I was thinking, since Xiangyun currently has such an ability, if it takes root in the southern border and continues to develop, what kind of terrifying power will it be?"

Pei Yue couldn't help being a little surprised. Mr. Xi is obviously a native of this world, but he can see through the energy of business and even capital at a glance. Even if this is only a superficial and general cognition, it is still shocking.

He couldn't help sighing: "Sir, you have good eyesight."

Mr. Xi shook his head and said, "I'm just making the most of the situation, and I'm far inferior to your keenness to seize opportunities. If you hadn't taken advantage of the severe drought in Qinzhou to let the Xiangyun ship jump out of Kyoto and then gain a firm foothold in Chengjing, we would not have such conditions at all. Arranged quietly."

Pei Yue was not overly modest, this was his plan for Xiangyun.

Although the capital is good, there are people staring at it everywhere. Xiangyun has gradually reached the bottleneck of development, and it cannot annex all other companies, even if Pei Yue has the ability to do so.

Relief to the disaster victims and saving the current situation kills two birds with one stone. It not only made Pei Yue gain a wave of favor in the court, but also made the development of the Xiangyun in the southern border unimpeded.

As for the fit with today's situation, it can only be said that there is God's will in the dark.

Pei Yue was not overwhelmed by the excitement. In his mind, the territory from the north to the south appeared, gradually turning into a vast and vast chessboard. Countless chess pieces fell down, as if more than a dozen dragons entangled and danced on it.

The pawn named Xiangyun was placed in his heart.

Lazi Tianyuan.
