Putting down the tea cup, Zhao Wenjing continued:
"While Shi Le's army was attacking Pingyuan County, Cao Ni also attacked Pingyuan County from behind, destroying farmland, killing people and robbing food. With the combined efforts of both sides, Pingyuan County was unable to support itself.
"Cao Yi is really short-sighted and as timid as a mouse. He already had a grudge against Shi Le, but now he just doesn't help Pingyuan County against Shi Le and stabs him in the back.
"As everyone knows, once Pingyuan County is defeated, it will definitely be Qingzhou's turn next!
"Yang Silang wants to raise troops in Jinan County. It is not a good time now. Zhao has thought about it and found that the right time and place are not favorable. Only people and peace can fight for it.
"But the only people left are harmony. Because the court is dark, General Zu cannot protect himself, and Yang Silang is afraid that he will not be able to get it.
"Unable to get help from General Zu, Cao Yi, as a minister of the puppet Han Dynasty, did not dare to oppose Shi Le. How could Yang Silang compete with Shi Le's elite troops on his own?
"The Wubao forces who formed strongholds on both sides of the Yellow River to protect themselves were all as afraid of Shi Le as a tiger. Without the support of the imperial court, how could they dare to fight against Shi Le?
"The current situation is like this. It's so difficult for Yang Silang to plan big things!"
At the end of the conversation, Zhao Wenjing drank the tea in one gulp again. It looked like he wanted to replace the tea with wine so that he could get drunk before he died.
Yang Ning did not drink tea with Zhao Wenjing this time. He shook his head: "Now is not a good time to raise troops, but it is not without any chance."
Zhao Wenjing looked at Yang Ning and didn't quite believe this conclusion. He couldn't see any possibility of Yang Ning's success: "What is Yang Silang's opinion?"
Yang Ning said: "Although Shi Le is from a humble background, he is a man of literary and military skills, ambitious and far-sighted. He has fierce generals like clouds and counselors like rain. Judging from his ambition, he must be quite big.
"Over the years, in the process of winning half of the puppet Han's army, he has repeatedly expanded his subordinates, and now he has half of the puppet Han's army.
"The Hu people don't know how to be loyal to their emperor and serve their country. As the leader of the Jie people, Shi Le is not a noble of the Huns. Now that he has occupied Hebei and his power has been established, how can he be willing to stay under others for a long time?
"I predict that he will support his own troops, separatize Hebei, and then seek to replace the Liu family of the puppet Han Dynasty!
"And the puppet Han court will not remain indifferent when they see that Shi Le is in great difficulty. If the Qi court is temporarily suspicious of General Zu, will the puppet Han tolerate Shi Le and become powerful?
"The conflict between the two sides is irreconcilable, and war will begin in the future. When the two tigers compete, it will be a great opportunity for us to take advantage of the situation and develop and grow!"
Zhao Wenjing's pupils dilated and he was deeply shocked.
He stared at Yang Ning in surprise: "Yang Silang is living between counties and villages, and he can even see through these things?"
Yang Ning smiled and said softly:
"Although I come from a small place, I have studied and practiced martial arts since I was a child. I have had many contacts with scholars from the state and county. I am concerned about the sound of wind, rain, reading, family affairs, state affairs, and world affairs."
He knew this, of course, because he had experienced it personally in his previous life.
In his previous life, he was able to resist Hu Youcheng because he took advantage of Shi Le and started a war with the puppet Han Dynasty. The two sides fought to a pulp and had no time to take care of Qingzhou.
Zhao Wenjing had no way of knowing this truth.
He only thought that Yang Ning was really paying attention to the world situation all the time, inquiring about all kinds of news from the outside world every day, and thinking about ways to fight against Hu and save the country day after day, and he couldn't help but admire him greatly.
Zhao Wenjing couldn't help but praise:
"Yang Silang has his family and country in mind and the world at heart. He is worthy of being a scholar taught by sages.
"Although we are located between counties and villages, we can see north and south and listen to all directions. In times of crisis, we are not afraid of strong enemies and dare to seek to protect the country and the people. It really puts the Dukes of Gonggun who live in the court to shame!"
Yang Ning felt embarrassed in her heart, but it didn't show on her face at all, and she accepted the compliment calmly.
Zhao Wenjing is impassioned on the surface, but secretly sarcastic.
He had just exaggerated the general trend of the world into a mess, and made it more difficult to raise an army to resist. In fact, he did not think that this matter was really impossible.
As a celebrity, before giving his own ideas to save the current situation, he habitually describes the current situation as extremely dangerous and irremediable. Otherwise, how can he show that his own opinions are outstanding and extraordinary?
But he only spoke the first half of his words, and before he had time to give his own opinion, Yang Ning's words robbed him of his words. It happened that Yang Ning's words were exactly what he was planning to say.
This embarrassed him.
He had never expected in advance that Yang Ning, a playboy with a notorious reputation in the countryside, would have such far-reaching insights.
Thinking of the villagers in Lianhua Village who made fun of Yang Ning and how it affected his speech, Zhao Wenjing was very depressed and couldn't help but cursed, "You fool me!"
Zhao Wenjing quickly adjusted his thoughts, coughed twice, put on a posture of "the heroes think alike", and quickly expressed his opinion, not daring to let Zhao Ning speak again:
"As Shiro said, although things in the world are dangerous, we are not without opportunities.
"At this time, Shi Le is powerful and we cannot fight with him rashly. What we need is to build up our troops and accumulate strength.
"Shi Le had just passed through Hebei, and his foundation was unstable. Resistance forces in Youzhou and other places still existed. In a short period of time, his main energy could only be focused on stabilizing Jizhou.
"General Zu Ti is still in Henan, and Shi Le dare not invade easily.
"This opportunity must not be missed before it comes again. If the Yang family wants to make a difference, the first secret lies in the word 'quick'!
"We must act quickly while Pingyuan County has not yet been conquered and General Zu Ti's prestige is still there.
"First, sweep away the barbarian cavalry in the counties and counties, cut off thieves and bandits from all over the country, train the troops in battle, build a foundation, and unite the people with lofty ideals in the counties and counties to expand their wings.
“Then we made good friends with General Ancestor’s old subordinates, and communicated with each other to help each other, and then got in touch with the imperial court.
“Even though the imperial court cannot allocate money, food, cloth, or silk, it can grant us status so that our flag can be recognized by all parties, and we can appoint talented people to official positions, so that we can easily attract scholars and young people from counties and counties!
"If he has a little strength, Shiro will have to support Pingyuan County, at least to contain Cao Yi, so that Pingyuan County can hold on longer.
“If Pingyuan County is not lost, Shile’s army will not go south!
"In case Pingyuan County cannot defend itself, as long as we occupy Jinan County and have land and food, we can support the retreat of Pingyuan County's elite troops southward in the future and work with them to strengthen ourselves.
"If this is the case, we will have the power to preserve ourselves in chaos, and we will be able to wait for changes and wait for opportunities in the future!"
Yang Ning nodded repeatedly.
The Yang family is too weak. If you want to succeed, you must take advantage of the situation, take advantage of the situation according to the actual situation, and deal with the forces of all parties.
When you are forging iron, you need to be strong. You must first establish a firm foothold. Only when you have strength can you plan for the long term.
As he talked, Zhao Wenjing gradually became more energetic. He simply stood up, waved his sleeves, walked back and forth, and pointed out the words:
"Once Shi Le goes to war with the puppet Han, the army can march out east of Mount Tai, attack Cao Yi and capture Qingzhou as a foothold!
"Qingzhou is surrounded by the sea on two sides, and is separated from Jizhou by the Yellow River on one side. You can advance, attack, retreat or defend. If you occupy Qingzhou, you will have the foundation to achieve great things in troubled times!"
"After that, Shiro can go to the imperial court and unite the old troops of General Ancestor and the elite soldiers from Yan and Xu states to cross the river and go north to attack Jizhou!
"Jizhou has been established, and we will meet with Wang's army to regain Guanzhong. Yang Silang will march west from the Central Plains, while Wang's army will march north from Wuguan. If they attack from both sides, the barbarians in Yongzhou can be eliminated!
"With the loss of Jizhou in the east and Yongzhou in the west, both arms of the puppet Han are cut off. How can the remaining Bingzhou survive alone? In this way, great things can be accomplished and the barbarians can be destroyed!"
By the end of the story, Zhao Wenjing's face was glowing red. He stood tall and tall in the hall, staring at the north with blazing eyes, his posture full of vigor.
It was as if he had really carried a three-foot green sword and beheaded Chief Hu!
