Chapter 609 Accepting Surrender
A small boat sailed upstream.
There were only two people on board.
One person stands at the bow of the boat with his hands behind his back, and the other stands at the stern and paddles the oars.
It seems that the frequency of rowing is not very fast, but the boat is like an arrow leaving the string, quickly approaching the dock from a distance.
"The Protector is here!" Zhang Qingyun said with a smile to Yue Qi beside him: "The person rowing behind is General Fang Xiaomao."
Yue Qi nodded repeatedly, took a few steps forward, and looked more respectful.
Zhang Qingyun personally planned and executed the plan and execution to persuade Anlu County Governor Yue Qi to defect to Li Dachui.
In the eyes of outsiders, this is an extremely risky operation,
But for Zhang Qingyun, there was actually no danger at all.
Because Yue Qi still has some connections with the Zhang family.
Going back two generations, the two families can be considered relatives. Although it is a roundabout way, they are still relatives.
When it comes to seniority, Zhang Qingyun has to call Yue Qi uncle.
Zhang Qingyun came to surrender to Yue Qi, whether it was a success or a failure, but if you want to say what Yue Qi will do to Zhang Qingyun, you are completely overly worried.
Even when the Zhang family was in bad luck, Yue Qi never stepped on the Zhang family.
But now that the Zhang family has risen again, relying on the Beiting Protectorate, it is a strong help and ally for Yue Qi.
In addition, Li Dachui currently seems to be the most popular one,
As soon as Zhang Qingyun came to surrender, the two parties naturally hit it off,
Hello, hello, everyone,
Not only can it make relatives closer, but it can also be a good helper in career.
There is someone in the court who likes to be an official,
This has always been an unbreakable truth.
To put it another way, a more subtle one is called Three Gangs of Men,
No matter how powerful Li Dachui was, without figures like Xiao Changche, Zhou Zhi, and Mao Daxian, he would not have been able to rise so quickly.
"I have met His Highness!" Yue Qi took a step forward, slightly bending one leg, as if to kneel down.
This time, the people behind him were caught off guard.
Li Dachui's current public official identity is the capital of the Beiting Protectorate of the Great Qin Empire. Although at the end of Wei Zhengdao's reign, the court named Li Dachui the King of Zhenbei, neither Li Dachui nor the Beiting Protectorate paid much attention to this. What is the response to the ban?
The announcement from the Beiting Protectorate still calls Li Dachui the Protector.
At first, everyone didn't understand the connection here. It wasn't until Beiting announced Li Dachui's true identity that everyone suddenly realized it.
However, Li Dachui's identity as the posthumous son of the former prince has not actually been officially recognized.
Especially Linghuye Group will not admit it.
Because once they admit it, Li Dachui will be the most qualified to become the current emperor of Qin in terms of status.
What is Linghuye doing?
Of course I won't do it.
As long as Li Dachui's identity is not recognized, the Li clan he is currently dragging around in Chang'an will have legitimacy. Unlike Wei Zhengdaoli's Li Ping, who is still a baby, Linghu Yeli's is a young and promising adult of seventeen or eighteen years old. people.
Who dares to say that he, Ling Huye, manipulates the emperor?
Obviously it is the emperor himself who makes the decision.
Everyone is well aware of these things.
And Yue Qi's paying homage and calling him "Your Highness" directly recognized Li Dachui's identity as the prince, and also officially and publicly drew a clear line between him and Ling Huye. I don’t recognize the emperor you established in Chang’an,
Because the legal system is incorrect.
None of the people following Yue Qi were fools. As soon as they saw Yue Qi's behavior, they immediately figured out the underlying joints.
Yue Qi did not kneel down because Li Dachui stretched out his hand to support him.
But those people behind Yue Qi knelt down on the ground.
From ancient times to the present, what has made the greatest contribution?
Of course, the supporter deserves the most credit.
They can't compare to the gang in Beiting. They are equivalent to Li Dachui's old team when he was hiding in the dragon. But why can't they compete in other places?
Li Dachui will win the world in the future. Who knows, just by kneeling down and shouting today, he will be able to earn incredible wealth for his family and be able to protect his children and grandchildren for generations.
This time Li Dachui came to Huai'an in person to meet Yue Qi and others. Naturally, he wanted to completely stabilize the hearts of these people. Since He Zudao returned to the eight towns in Jiangnan, whether it was Wei Zhengdao before or Linghuye later, or It is the State of Chu, and they are all working hard in the eight towns south of the Yangtze River.
They all want to take the power here as their own.
And now, with the death of He Zudao, the eight towns in Jiangnan have also been completely divided.
Judging from the current situation, Li Dachui has reaped the biggest dividend.
Among them, Xiangyang has been completely controlled by Li Dachui. Others such as Huai'an County, Jinling County, Anlu County, and Chongling County basically followed Yue Qi and defected to Li Dachui during Zhang Qingyun's rebellion. Zhong Xuexin of Huainan County And part of Nanyang County was preparing to defect to Li Guohua in Dongdu.
As the information about Li Guohua's large-scale mobilization of troops and horses reached Yong'an County, Li Dachui also understood the other party's intentions, and they were bound to win Nanyang.
At the moment, the focus of Li Dachui and Jiang Qian is to defeat Xiang Ying and Na Weibing's two-pronged attack on Yong'an and Ruyin. Nanyang is really unable to divide their forces.
It is absolutely impossible for Li Xiu's 5,000-strong army to defend Nanyang. Xiao Zhongren, who had planned to reverse the plan in advance, is still unreliable under such circumstances. He is ready to send to Nanyang to launch a mass movement. The masters of the Demon Cult have not set off yet!
Therefore, after repeated discussions with Jiang Qian, Li Dachui was ready to temporarily abandon Nanyang County and retreat all Li Xiu's troops to Xiangyang.
For places like Yongan and Ruyin now, Xiangyang is the real choke point.
As for Xiao Zhongren and others, it is up to them to choose. If they are still willing to work for this side, then of course they will be generous in the future. If they defect to Linghuye, it is human nature. Anyway, there is one more enemy. For Li Dachui, it didn't matter.
With six of the eight towns in the south of the Yangtze River, plus Yong'an County and Ruyin County, if it can control the river and be integrated with Shu County on the waterway, its strength will be much stronger than He Zudao before.
As long as we survive this most difficult time, the road ahead will become wider and wider.
Jiang Qian didn't come because Li Dachui wanted to quickly hold these six towns in his hands to form a usable force.
After all, these people in the Six Towns of Jiangnan have been fighting with the Chu people all their lives, and now they suddenly become allies with Jiang Qian, the former number one enemy, and become her subordinates, so they must be feeling uncomfortable.
This takes some time to digest slowly.
"No need to be polite!" Li Dachui took Yue Qi's hand and said with a smile: "Li comes from a rough background and has been a horse bandit for many years. He is really impatient with the red tape. Everyone looks up to me. You can call me Duhu, or if you want to be more friendly, you can call me Big Hammer! I grew up with my adoptive father, and he was free to name me, so you can call me whatever you want!"
There was a burst of laughter from below. When they met for the first time, Li Dachui's easy-going attitude made everyone feel a lot more relaxed.
Of course, etiquette is inevitable,
He said he could shout Big Hammer, but can you really do it?
Seriously you are stupid!
