Huang Zhiting finally sent out troops. Although there was no time to mobilize the army, he still mobilized about 2,500 wolf soldiers near Haiyuan City and sent troops westward overnight.
The result of the discussion between Huang Zhiting and Gao Pragmatic is that if Huang Gongsheng has not taken action yet, then the two thousand and five hundred wolf soldiers will mainly act as a deterrent to prevent them from messing up; if Huang Gongsheng has already taken action, they will even follow the worst plan. As a result, the plan was to capture Mingjiang City, so Huang Zhiting would first surround Mingjiang City and wait for the decision of the Guangxi Fu and Ying Houses.
Waiting for care and making decisions was obviously not Huang Zhiting's original intention. It was only after the persuasion of Gao Wu that she agreed.
According to Huang Zhiting's original idea, it was to try not to give the court an opportunity or excuse to interfere in "Siming's internal affairs." It would be best to intimidate Huang Gongsheng from taking action. If it was already too late, then use lightning to cover up the situation. To seize Siming Prefecture and capture Huang Gongsheng, in a word, the imperial army cannot be allowed to enter Siming Mansion to avoid changes.
But Gao Jingshi persuaded her. Although Gao Jingshi was not familiar with military affairs and did not know what the battle would be like if Huang Zhiting really wanted to seize Siming Prefecture by force, but he knew how to convince her: "If this battle is , both sides are soldiers of the Huang family. No matter what the battle damage is, it is nothing more than the pain of relatives and the joy of enemies. Has the girl forgotten Cen Meng's rebellion? The decline of Si'en and Tianzhou led to the rise of Sicheng. This so-called The car in front of you is overturned, and the car behind you is a lesson, so why not be cautious, girl?"
Huang Zhiting really hesitated. After all, whether it was the Cen family or the Huang family, who could become the head of the sect would not rely on looking up family trees or comparing blood relations, but on which one was the strongest. Siming Prefecture is originally the strongest state in Siming Mansion besides our own family. If we fight with them, both of us will suffer losses. If the fight does not go smoothly and both sides suffer losses, it will be even worse.
However, Huang Zhiting was still worried about the interference of the imperial court. She was especially worried that once the imperial court interfered, it might not stop at suppressing the rebellion, but instead mix sand and create officials.
Siming Prefecture is the headquarters of the Huang family, and the surrounding Huang family members include Jiangzhou, Sitong Prefecture, Guidezhou, Zuozhou, Fengyi Prefecture, Xiangwu Prefecture, and other areas that theoretically belong to Taiping Prefecture or Zhili Prefecture, and even There are also some counties and inspection departments that are also members of the Huang family. The reason why they regard Siming Mansion as their main family is precisely because this headquarters is not only the strongest branch of the Huang family, but also one that has no imperial intervention.
Originally, in the third year of Longqing, after Huang Chengzu was tricked by the imperial court into Zhongzhou, the momentum of the family was greatly affected. If the imperial court assassinated Simingzhou again this time, then the status of the family would still be stable, but only God knows.
Gao pragmatically said: "Don't worry about this matter. I have a good reputation at least. This time I am willing to go there in person to persuade the two houses, and I will keep it clear to them."
Huang Zhiting couldn't believe it and asked, "What do you want to say?"
Gao Pingshi smiled and said: "What's so difficult about this? He said that Siming Mansion is the head of the Huang family. If they are forced to panic, I'm afraid the entire Huang family may be in commotion... Guangxi has been fighting for more than ten consecutive years, let alone care. According to both chambers, even the imperial court has some headaches over this, so in order to ensure the stability of Guangxi, the two chambers will definitely not risk the turmoil in southern Guangxi and forcefully change the situation."
This analysis makes sense, and Huang Zhiting is a little moved.
Gao Pingshi smiled in his heart, and added another dimension to her, saying: "If the girl doesn't believe in my eloquence, why not do this? I'll go and persuade Mr. Cen Qi to send troops with you."
Huang Zhiting was startled for a moment and said, "Sicheng? Sicheng is more than five hundred miles away from our Siming Mansion. By the time they send troops, the day lilies will be completely cold."
"There is no need to send troops from Sicheng." Gao Pingshi smiled and said: "Master Cen Qi is in the Huang Mansion. He also has almost three hundred wolf soldiers outside the city. Please ask him to take these soldiers and horses with the girl. You can achieve the effect by going to Mingjiang City in Siming Prefecture."
Huang Zhiting frowned and said: "You mean... to make the illusion that the Cen and Huang families are joining forces to scare Huang Gongsheng?"
Gao pragmatically said: "It is not only a shock to Huang Gongsheng, but also a reminder to the court."
As soon as he said this, Huang Zhiting realized - it doesn't matter how many soldiers and horses Cen Ling brings, and she may not really need the help of Cen Ling's soldiers and horses. Cen Ling's only role is to show that "Cen Ling joins forces"!
Siming Mansion represents the Huang family, and Sicheng Prefecture represents the Cen family. No one doubts Huang Zhiting. Even Cen Ling, it is not a big problem for him to represent the Cen family. After all, Cen Shaoxun has nothing to do. Cen Ling is his biological brother, so he is closer than Huang Ma, right? Therefore, in the eyes of the outside world, Cen Ling can certainly represent the Cen family in Sicheng.
In this way, in the eyes of the court, of course it was Cen Huang who joined forces. Since the Cen and Huang families have joined forces, the imperial court will definitely not intervene indiscriminately unless it is prepared to raise more than 200,000 troops.
Huang Zhiting was convinced and said: "As long as you can persuade Cen Ling, I will believe you."
Gao Pragmatic then went to "persuade" Cen Ling - what's so persuasive about this? Although Cen Ling wanted to see the Huang family in chaos from the bottom of his heart, he had something to ask for now. Gao Jingshi just came to him to show his face for help. If he still didn't agree, he would ask Gao Jingshi to help put Huang's family in order. Do we still need to talk about this matter? Not to mention that there is no need to talk about this matter, maybe Gao Pragmatic will let out the news of the chaos within Sicheng Prefecture, which will be a big trouble.
Therefore, he had to ignore this threat, and he had to help with this favor, so he had no choice but to agree obligingly and came to see Huang Zhiting with Gao Pangshi.
She didn't think of asking Gao Jingshi how to convince Cen Ling. She wanted to ask now but it was inconvenient to ask. Besides, time was urgent and it would not be too late to talk about these things in the future, so she asked Cen Ling to give orders to the three hundred wolf soldiers outside the city. , while leaving two blank official documents stamped with the copper seal of Siming Prefecture’s local magistrate to Gao Jingshi, asking him to fill in the content himself, so that he could use it as proof of identity as the "Messenger of Siming Prefecture" in front of Futai and Jiantai.
Gao Pragmatic naturally did not need this thing to prove his identity, but he still accepted the two blank documents, and then the three of them went about their own affairs. Huang Zhiting and Cen Ling respectively mobilized their troops to prepare for a joint attack. Gao Pangshi packed up... well, he had nothing to pack up. He simply took a few sets of clothes prepared for him by Huang Zhiting's orders, and prepared to "go to Liuzhou and Guilin" accompanied by ten wolf soldiers.
Of course, Gao Pragmatic didn't have to be as anxious as Huang Zhiting. There was no problem in sleeping until tomorrow before setting off. However, in order to show that he was very motivated, he still set out overnight and headed towards Liuzhou.
Not long after he dispatched, two more groups of people dispatched separately, and their goals were surprisingly the same, they were all following Gao Pragmatic.
The only difference is the purpose.
