Liu Yi and Xu Xianzhi looked at each other and shook their heads in unison. Liu Yi looked at Tao Yuanming who was smiling and said in a deep voice: "Yuanming, what you mean is to find an opportunity for yourself to make meritorious deeds, and you will not hesitate to support Huan." Counterattack against Jiangling? Are you crazy?! The war is fierce and dangerous. You, a mere scholar with no soldiers, are really so confident that you can control a state and control the outcome, life and death of more than 100,000 soldiers? "
Tao Yuanming smiled slightly: "Aren't I always like this? Everyone in the mafia wants to control the world with the world as their chess and all the armies as their sons. At least so far, everything is going according to plan. Come into my plan and control.”
Liu Yi sighed: "If you want glory and wealth, just come to me directly. Are you afraid that I won't give you a high official and a generous salary?"
Tao Yuanming laughed: "Master Baihu, how could you forget the rules set by your Beijing Eighth Party and you will not be rewarded without merit. Even the children of the aristocratic families in Jiankang City must join the army and make meritorious deeds in order to keep their current status." I have a title, let alone a hermit in the mountains who has never been exposed to the public. I used to be a staff member under Huan Xuan. Based on this alone, it is good to be able to save my life. How can I expect to be a high-ranking official and a generous salary? I can only get a job With great merit, you can obtain the official title and join the shogunate of the general."
Xu Xianzhi suddenly sneered: "I'm afraid Mr. Tao doesn't want to join the army as an ordinary shogunate. Your ambition is to be a powerful minister who plays tricks on the court and a prime minister, at least at the level of Liu Muzhi or me. Moreover, , I’m afraid you’re the shogunate you want to join, and you’re not the champion general shogunate here in Xile.”
Liu Yi's expression changed slightly, but Tao Yuanming gently stroked his long beard and said with a smile: "Sure enough, Master Zhuque understands me better. Yes, what I want to go to is Liu Yu's shogunate. Sorry, Baihu grown ups."
Liu Yi's eyes widened and he said sternly: "Tao Yuanming, what do you mean, openly going against me?"
A hint of meaning flashed in Tao Yuanming's eyes: "Could it be that Liu Xile, who is a master of military skills, can't even understand the art of war? This is below the standard."
Liu Yi gritted his teeth: "You have to use someone you can trust, a spy you can control. But are you, Tao Yuanming? Is there anyone in this world who can control you?"
Tao Yuanming smiled and said: "There may not be anyone who can control me, but there are people who can control my interests. No matter what, I want power and wealth. This is destined to stand in the high family, or in other words As a rising aristocratic family, if you become friends with the mafia, you are destined to become an enemy of an idealist like Liu Yu who wants to make ordinary people stand up. Besides, I have so many dark pasts and tricks that are unknown to you. How can he really become Liu Yu’s person in his hands?”
Xu Xianzhi said coldly: "That's not certain. Maybe Mr. Tao can strike first and kill us all with the slave's knife."
Tao Yuanming shook his head confidently: "You two have been friends with Liu Yu for decades, and we are brothers and sisters. Even if Liu Yu has a competitive relationship with Master Baihu, you have no grudge against Master Zhuque, right? Even if he knows that you are a gangster. You are a member of the party, but you didn’t harm him, and he won’t do anything to you. As an outsider, I went to tell him your faults, because I thought I didn’t die quickly enough?”
Liu Yi's expression softened slightly: "Then why are you going to Liu Yu to teach him your dark tricks? Don't forget, there is a fat man next to Liu Yu who is known as the reincarnation of Zhuge. These tricks of yours , can't escape his eyes. Besides, Fatty has noticed you a long time ago. If we hadn't been covering for you before, I'm afraid you would have been arrested."
Tao Yuanming smiled slightly: "I have my purpose in going to Liu Yu. I can't tell you two yet, but it will never harm you. In order to repay you for creating an opportunity for me to make a contribution, I will tell you now. , the intelligence from Huan Zhen’s side can even lead you to attack Jiangling. Well, this reward is quite generous."
Liu Yi's heart moved, but he put on a nonchalant expression on his face: "What kind of rich reward is this? With my enviable intelligence ability, I can find out all the intelligence about Jiangling in the past few days. Can you tell me?" , there is no difference, at most I will just wait here for a few days."
Tao Yuanming said calmly: "I believe Master Zhuque has this ability. After all, you still have 317 middle and lower-level military academies from the former Chu army who surrendered and are loyal to you. You can kill them in these two days." Train them into qualified spies and tell them how to pass on information and report to you."
Xu Xianzhi's expression really changed this time: "You actually..."
Tao Yuanming smiled slightly: "Master Baihu just said it well. I don't have any soldiers. I look like a villager in the mountains. However, I still have some eyes and ears of my own. I don't dare to say that in other places. On the ground of Jingzhou Even if I fall asleep, I know clearly what happened in my dream. If you don’t cooperate with me, then Lord Suzaku, I guarantee that your 317 spies, together with their nine spies in Jingzhou, will All family members in the twenty-seventh county will disappear from this world. If you want to know any information about Jiangling, you will have to wait for at least a year."
Xu Xianzhi's face was gloomy and he said nothing. Liu Yi sighed: "Mr. Tao, if you have something to say, please say it. You don't have to say it harshly. It's meaningless. If you help us break into Jiangling, I can report it to the court and give you a reward." The credit for leading the army is enough for you to go to Liu Yu and join the army as a sergeant, how about it."
Tao Yuanming laughed: "General Champion, you are too stingy. I have helped you so much, so you can give me the credit of leading the army? This is just an errand to open the city gate. How much do you look down on me, Tao Yuanming? .”
Liu Yi gritted his teeth: "But it's hard for me to bring these shameful things you did to the table, or do you think I should let Liu Yu know how powerful an intelligence master you are? What do you think Liu Yu If I knew your true identity, would I use you or kill you?"
Tao Yuanming smiled slightly: "So, I need an honorable contribution. I can just let a small gatekeeper do the things like opening the city gate and leading the army into the city. What I want is to welcome back the Emperor of Jin Dynasty and Langya King, I heard that Yin Zhongwen got the official position of Dongyang County Governor by bringing back Queen Wang and Queen Mother He a while ago. Then my contribution to rescuing the emperor and the king should make me directly become a celebrity around Liu Yu. Even if Liu Yu doesn't want to, I helped Queen Wang find his emperor, so she can say a few nice words for me in front of her brother Yu."
