It turned out that Wang Liang had indeed received a secret letter from Prince Jing, informing him of the special envoy from Prince Jing's palace who had persuaded him to return to the throne. Moreover, King Jing also told him that if the envoy failed to persuade King Fu, he would come to Tongguan to find him. At that time, he would be well received and send troops to Chang'an as soon as possible, forcing King Fu to use his family wealth and march out of Shangluo obediently. .
King Jing also said that regardless of whether King Fu sent troops or not, when the opportunity came, he, Wang Liang, could send troops to garrison Chang'an. In this way, he could legitimately become the lord of Chang'an.
Therefore, Wang Liang has been looking forward to this good thing.
Moreover, this Wang Liang is indeed a talented general and a good military commander. He has been stationed in Tongguan for several years, radiating to nearby states and counties, and it can be said that the four sides are in awe of him.
Of course, the main point is that the capital is located in the north. Unlike the Anshi Rebellion in the Tang Dynasty, when the capital was located in Chang'an, Tongguan's importance is relatively weak. But it still has its own strategic position. If the forces in the Longyou area want to break through Chang'an, enter Luoyang, and then do other things, they will basically have no way to pass through Tongguan. In addition, it also echoes the capital from a distance, sandwiching the territory between the capital and Tongguan, which can be regarded as a wonderful echo from the beginning to the end.
Therefore, King Jing launched war against Jiangnan and Xiangyang at the same time, but did not use any troops at Tongguan. In fact, he had his own plans. Speaking of which, he also left a way out for himself.
Wang Liang had learned from Prince Jing's secret letter that the envoys were a young man and woman who were important figures in the Loyalty League, so he did not have much suspicion after meeting Xu Lang and Gui Xiaomin. Moreover, since he could not only get the token, but also the handwriting of Prince Jing, there would be no problem.
So, he quickly got on his horse and rode side by side with Xu Lang, heading straight to the general's mansion.
Along the way, Xu Lang chatted with him while paying attention to the layout of the city. At that time, after all, it was not dark yet, and the city was still a bit lively, with an endless stream of people coming and going. Of course, the patrolling sergeants kept coming and going. After seeing Wang Liang, they all immediately stood aside respectfully and shouted in unison: "Hello, Commander!"
Wang Liang was very calm and took it in stride, but there was a powerful intimidation in his eyes.
Not long after, the general's residence arrived.
Because these people arrived suddenly, the general's mansion was unprepared. Wang Liang led several people straight to the meeting hall and ordered his men to prepare food and drinks as they walked.
"Master Chun, let's discuss the matter of Chang'an first. Later, we will treat each other with coarse tea and light wine. I hope you don't mind!"
Having said that, Wang Liang was not too polite and sat down on the main seat.
"Easy to say, easy to say!"
Xu Lang smiled and didn't mind. He was a general after all, so it was not easy to show such humiliation. If he hadn't been wearing the aura of Prince Jing's envoy, he would have been nothing.
He sat down at the seat closest to Wang Liang and glanced sideways at Lin Zhijing and others, who immediately understood. Liu Yushan and Lu Yida sat on the left and right sides closest to the exit of the hall respectively, while Lin Zhijing was next to Gui Xiaomin.
This made Wang Liang feel strange.
"Those two brothers, there is no need to sit so far away. We will call the generals of each battalion to come over later to discuss matters!"
Liu Yushan smiled.
"Thank you, General. I'm tired of riding horses all the way. Please stay closer to the door for better ventilation!"
This answer made Wang Liang feel that something was wrong, but he didn't think about it carefully. He thought that this person might have a weird temper, after all, he was from a martial arts background! It's understandable that you can't get on the stage.
He also smiled and turned to look at Xu Lang.
"Master Chun, now you can hand over the oracle to me!"
