The tyrant empress is my wife, I am invincible and have been hiding

"Your Majesty, my prince does not have many troops at his disposal. If he were to distribute them to the younger princes, he would be afraid that the Western Shu Dynasty would take advantage of the situation and invade."

When Dong Kun was in Pingxi County, Zhao Du had already asked people to think of various possible questions that Ye Feng might ask, and he now answered without hesitation.

"I didn't expect the King of Pingxi to be so loyal. On behalf of His Majesty, I would like to thank him for guarding Pingxi County for so many years." Ye Feng's expression remained calm. Since Zhao Du wanted to submit his loyalty, he naturally could not let the other party down.

"For the sake of the King of Pingxi's meritorious service in defending the territory for so many years, you should go back and tell him to continue to send troops to guard the border between the Western Shu Dynasty and the Great Song Dynasty, and never let the other side take advantage of the situation. When I finish my inspection and return to the capital, I will definitely say a few good words to him in front of His Majesty, and then I will allocate money to him to replenish his troops."

"On behalf of the prince, I would like to thank the king!"

Dong Kun was secretly delighted in his heart. The purpose of his coming to Ye Feng to submit his loyalty was to achieve this effect.

"You're welcome. If you have enough time, you can stay and have a meal. The food in the army is quite simple. I wonder if you can get used to it?"

Ye Feng had never expected that they would have to retreat from Jiayun Pass. This was really a double blessing. Yesterday, he had severely extorted money from him, and today, Pingxi King Zhao Du sent someone to deliver it to him.

If he didn't know that the Three Kingdoms Alliance wanted to overthrow the Song Dynasty, perhaps he would have allowed King Pingxi Zhao Du to live a little longer.

Since the Wei Dynasty and other three dynasties may take action against the Song Dynasty at any time, he must speed up the cleansing of internal forces.

Compared to Dongxuan King Zhao Yunfei and Changlin Lord Zhao Changlin, Pingxi King is undoubtedly the easiest to capture. Most importantly, Pingxi County is the closest to Nanyu County.

"I would rather obey your command than submit. Thank you, Lord Zhenguo, for the meal!" Dong Kun did not refuse. Since the King of Pingxi had chosen to join the court, as the King of Pingxi's man, he naturally had to appear more calm so that Lord Zhenguo could believe that they were really willing to rely on the court.

As Dong Kun left Jiayun Pass, Zhao Mu came directly to Ye Feng and said, "Your Majesty, King Pingxi Zhao Du is very cunning and I'm afraid he won't surrender sincerely. My father sent him letters many times, hoping that he would join forces, but he always promised solemnly but never took any action. He is a fence-sitter."

"The King of Pingxi has kindly submitted his surrender letter. As the saying goes, you should not hit a smiling person. Why not give him some nice words and take advantage of his situation?" Ye Feng knew very well that the King of Pingxi would not easily choose to surrender. Since the King of Pingxi wanted to be a fence-sitter, he could not fall.

After hearing this, Zhao Mu suddenly realized what was going on, but he was secretly worried for Zhao Du. If he wanted to play tricks in front of the king, he would probably end up getting burned.

Ye Feng turned around and found Li Shanxiao, saying, "You ride your warhorse and rush to the outskirts of Jinling City as quickly as possible, and bring the 27,000 cavalrymen who were left there to Nanyu City. Remember not to cause too much noise. Next, we have to sweep across Pingxi County as quickly as possible."

"As ordered!"

Li Shanxiao heard this, and surprise flashed in his eyes. He left Jinling City with 3,000 black armored cavalrymen, and the purpose of the remaining 27,000 black armored cavalrymen was to assist Yang Zaixing and others in guarding Jinling City.

Now that the master has mobilized 27,000 Black Armored Cavalry, it means that he will have to lead 30,000 Black Armored Cavalry into battle next. Just thinking about it makes him feel extremely refreshed.

Li Shanxiao rode his warhorse and, without alarming anyone, rushed towards the direction of Jinling City at the fastest speed. With his level of grandmaster, it was impossible for him to encounter any problems along the way.

……

Dongxuan Palace.

Zhao Yunfei leaned on the throne, gently stroking the tiger's fur with one hand. The most favorite beast in his life was the tiger, which had the aura of a king.

"I am here to meet King Dongxuan. My master has ordered me to deliver a letter to him." Following the order of King Pingxi Zhao Du, Wang Tong came to the palace of King Dongxuan with the letter.

According to the plan of Pingxi King Zhao Du, he had to submit his surrender to Ye Feng, and also tell Zhao Yunfei that he was not interested in power, but only wanted to guard the one acre and three-point land of Pingxi County, and also encouraged Zhao Yunfei to become the emperor. In this way, he could have the best of both worlds and offend no one.

"Pingxi King Zhao Du has a good plan." Zhao Yunfei raised his eyebrows after reading the letter and said directly: "Go back and tell your prince that I am not interested in his Pingxi County. Since he doesn't want to join me in the war, he should be honest and don't make trouble. Otherwise, I don't mind leading my troops to destroy him first."

Wang Tong was not angry when he heard Zhao Yunfei's arrogant tone. After all, the King of Dongxuan had the largest territory and more soldiers and generals. If he was really determined to destroy the King of Pingxi, it wouldn't be a big problem.

"I will definitely convey the prince's message. I'll take my leave now!"

Wang Tong turned and walked out of the hall.

Zhao Tuo's eyes flashed coldly, and he said directly: "Father, this Zhao Du has always been a fence-sitter. I'm afraid he has bad intentions in sending people here this time."

“Hmph! After seeing King Nanyu being destroyed, he became afraid. He doesn’t want to offend either the King of Zhenguo or me. He just wants to please both sides and keep his throne and territory.” Zhao Yunfei has been dealing with Zhao Du for decades. If he didn’t know the other person’s character, he would not have been able to become King Dongxuan.

"Then why didn't Father expose it on the spot?"

Zhao Tuo was a little surprised. Since his father knew that Zhao Du wanted to be a fence-sitter, why didn't he just refuse directly but just threatened him with words?

"Don't worry! There are people who are more anxious than us!"

Zhao Yunfei had a confident smile on his face, his expression was calm, and he looked refreshed.

"Zhen Guojun? Isn't he still in Jiayun Pass of Qingyuan Dynasty?"

Zhao Tuo naturally knew that the person his father was talking about was Ye Feng, the King of the State.

"Tuo'er, when you look at a problem, you must learn to see the overall situation. Otherwise, you will never see through it and will only see the surface." Zhao Yunfei said to Zhao Tuo: "Come with father, and you will know!"

Zhao Yunfei brought Zhao Tuo to the courtyard and saw two cloud guards standing there: "Greetings, master, the news is accurate. The Great Wei Dynasty, the Western Shu Dynasty, and the Great Jin Dynasty are preparing to attack the Great Song Dynasty next year."

When Zhao Tuo heard the news, he suddenly realized.

If Lord Zhenguo Ye Feng continued to stay in the Qingyuan Dynasty, he would undoubtedly be defeated when the allied forces of the three kingdoms attacked the Song Dynasty.

……

"General Su, you take the white robe army to Nanyang County first, and wait for my order at any time, and then you can attack Pingxi County." Since Ye Feng decided to take Pingxi County, he naturally had to make preparations in advance.

Starting from Jiayun Pass, rushing all the way to Nanyu County, and then rushing to the territory outside Pingxi County and quietly stationing there, it would take at least ten days. He had to deploy troops and make plans in advance.
