After hearing the inquiry from the person next to him, the old Taoist lowered his eyes and nodded: "This matter was sent by Mozi Anye. Do you think it is false?"
"An Ye?" Hearing this name, this person was shocked. An Ye was Mozi's lone assassin. His methods were not as superb as those of Qi Hai who was killed. However, he walked alone and did not interact with anyone. It's just involved.
Compared with assassination, he is more powerful in dressing up and spying on information. A lot of Mozi's information was obtained by this person, and then sold to Mozi, who then resold it to the people who bought the information. Assassination is safer, but of course the rewards are not small, so An Ye mostly relies on this to make a living!
Since it is dark night information, it cannot be faked!
"Mozi, how should we deal with this matter now? Even if we issue another mission, no one will dare to take it in a short time!"
"Let this matter be put aside for the time being. Let me let An Ye investigate what is going on. After so many people died at once, there must be an explanation. I, Mozi's people, are not so easy to kill!" said the old Taoist, his face slightly a bit agitated. Anger was looming, but his mood was not like the Gujing Wubo he had just shown.
The men on the side also stopped talking. Mozi had already made up his mind after saying this.
Of course, Changsun Wuji and Mozi Lao Dao didn't know anything about Luo Zhang's investigation. Even if they knew, they would just laugh it off. It's a good thing they didn't find out the truth. If they found out the truth, they would be scared to death. After all, any Xiantian realm expert would be so scared. They are all existences in legends. Shenlong has never seen its tail. Being intimidated by such a strong person, they may feel honored. They are lucky enough to be stared at by a strong person in the Xiantian realm. If they are lucky enough to survive, they may not be able to talk about it for a lifetime. It's too much.
At this time, Luo Zhang was riding a horse and standing on a hillside. Below were groups of armies with banners waving, marching towards the land of Huguang. Ordinarily Luo Zhang should not enter the land of Huguang, because he was stationed outside and then had to fight with the army. Feng An contacted him, but Luo Zhang didn't think so, and there was no way to talk without pressure.
Luo Zhang didn't want to engage in Tai Chi with Feng Ang. What he wanted was to cut through the mess quickly and end things here as soon as possible so that he could return to Chang'an as soon as possible. It was necessary to put a certain amount of pressure on Feng Ang.
Although Luo Zhang only has an army of 20,000, this is an army second only to the left and right guards. Its combat power is not comparable to that of Feng Ang's army. The northern infantry is already tough, and it is no problem for one person to deal with three or four southern infantry. , although there is a worry about being acclimatized, Sun Simiao had already prepared potions for Luo Zhang before he came. These potions were mostly added to the food he ate during these days, otherwise just being acclimatized would slow down Luo Zhang. During the journey, a large number of soldiers will fall down or even die.
Just when Luo Zhang's army passed the junction of Huguang, Feng Mansion and Feng An also received the news immediately. Luo Zhang's movements were monitored at all times, and the slightest movement affected Feng An's heart.
When he saw the news that Luo Zhang had led an army to cross the border between Huguang and Hunan, he couldn't help but be shocked. He didn't expect that Luo Zhang didn't follow common sense and actually led the army to fight in. What did Luo Zhang want to do? ? Shouldn't we talk about going to war directly? Does he really think that his 20,000 troops can defeat his existing 50,000 troops?
Feng Ang originally had a hundred thousand soldiers, but 50,000 of them had already marched to the center of Shu, and were already encircling Fuling. As long as they captured Fuling, they could march straight into the center of Shu and occupy the entire Western Shu. This place was richer than Huguang. Even better, it not only has a large population, but also rich products. There is no comparison with the barbarian land of Huguang. This is one of the reasons why Feng Ang wants to occupy Shuzhong.
Changsun Wuji also mentioned in his letter that if he ascended to the throne, the south including Shuzhong would be assigned to him. Feng An did not comment on this. He could fight for what he wanted. Changsun Wuji's permission was not needed. He hasn't ascended to the big position yet, and it won't be too late for him to ascend to it!
Now Luo Zhang actually entered Huguang regardless of the situation, which made Feng Ang very surprised. He didn't know where Luo Zhang's confidence was.
Fifty thousand versus twenty thousand, no matter how you look at it, he has a great chance of winning. Moreover, this is a local battle, which has a geographical advantage. Luo Zhang has traveled a long distance and is just waiting for work. If there is a fight, Feng An is confident that he can defeat Luo Zhang with one blow. The army could even capture Luo Zhang if they were lucky.
Thinking about Changsun Wuji's suggestion, Feng An felt a little moved for the first time. It was such a rare opportunity.
Even without Changsun Wuji's suggestion, if he seizes Luo Zhang, he still has the capital to negotiate terms with Li Shimin. If he can't keep it, he can make Li Shimin give in and allocate the power in Shu to him. Although it is not permanent, it belongs to him in name. What's the difference between him and Yongzhu?
Thinking of this, Feng Ang immediately summoned his military advisor Liu Bowen and his eighth son Feng Junhao to discuss the matter.
These two people are his think tanks. Whenever something happens, he will ask them for details. As the saying goes, one person is short-sighted and three people are wise. Feng An performed this very well. He knew that he sometimes made mistakes. You need to listen to other people's opinions and find out the best solution, so that you can solve the problem in the best way.
When Liu Bowen and Feng Junhao arrived, Feng Ang was pacing back and forth in the hall, seemingly having trouble making a decision.
Seeing the two of them arriving, Feng Angdang briefly explained what had happened, and their expressions changed after hearing this.
Liu Bowen immediately said: "Sir, this is an excellent opportunity. If we can really capture Luo Zhang, then our Feng family can survive for three generations!"
"Three generations? What I want is more than three generations. What I want is to replace him one day, and Shuzhong is the key place. Whether Liu Bang of the Han Dynasty makes his fortune in Shuzhong, or Liu Bei becomes emperor in Shuzhong, there will always be people like Long Xingzhi here. Capital, if I can occupy this place, it won't take long for me to become even more powerful than I am now. If my generation can't do it, my next generation, and the next generation after that, will eventually have a chance!" Feng Ang's eyes were filled with an unexplainable look.
After Liu Bowen and Feng Junhao heard this, they were quite shocked. This was the first time that they heard the head of the family express his ambitions. If this was true, then the Feng family would not have no chance in the future.
But then Feng Junhao said: "Father, I think it's not okay!"
"Huh? What do you mean?" Feng An turned his eyes and looked at Feng Junhao.
