Without money, what is the point of being a traitor?

Chapter 197: The Great Defeat on the Third Day of Abstinence

Song Chunniang was almost stunned by what she heard. She couldn't help swallowing her saliva, "What did you say? Sell out the Bazhou rebels?"

Song Chunniang might not have such a clear understanding of national affairs, but the rebellion of heroes like Liu Liuye and Liu Qiye was the most interesting topic among the people in the martial arts world.

Many people do not live a satisfactory life, but that does not stop them from envying others who live a happy life.

Song Chun's mother's Changfeng Escort Agency also saw a lot better business because of the uprising of the Bazhou rebels.

Not only did more people seek them out for work, but the price of escort services also increased three or four times.

Although Song Chunniang had often heard Pei Yuan and others say recently that the rebels in Bazhou had shown signs of decline, a lean camel is still bigger than a horse. No matter how bad the situation was, they still had thousands of cavalry and nearly 120,000 miscellaneous soldiers and their families.

Such a huge force, let alone small characters like them, I'm afraid even the current emperor would not dare to underestimate it.

And Pei Yuan, the man in front of him, was actually planning to sell them like commodities.

The two of them were lying face to face, and Pei Yuan immediately noticed Song Chunniang swallowing her saliva.

Her lips are thin and rosy, and her eyes are curved and charming.

So Pei Yuan couldn't help swallowing his saliva, and some insignificant thoughts were successfully conveyed to Song Chunniang through his body reactions.

There was a slight smile on Song Chunniang's lips, as if Pei Yuan's obsession made her a little proud.

She didn't care whether "selling the Bazhou rebels" was Pei Yuan's whimsical plan or just a dream, and asked casually, "Who are you going to sell them to?"

Pei Yuan thought about it and answered sincerely, "I can't say yet."

Song Chunniang didn't say anything when she heard this, but she was obviously unhappy.

She could sense that, although Pei Yuan already trusted her very much, there were many confidential matters that Pei Yuan would prefer to discuss with Cheng Leixiang and Chen Toutie.

If she always plays this kind of role next to Pei Yuan, what's the difference between that and being dispensable?
Song Chunniang said softly, "I want to know!"

Although her voice was not loud, her tone was so firm that she even startedled.

Pei Yuan hesitated, his eyes moved, and he answered tactfully, "Some specific details have not been thought out yet."

Song Chunniang naturally heard that this was an excuse to shirk responsibility, and she felt both aggrieved and unwilling.

Fortunately, Song Chunniang, who grew up in the underworld, has never been a law-abiding person. She rolled her eyes and wanted to get close to Pei Yuan to exert special influence.

But before she could display her various martial arts, she felt Pei Yuan casually put his hand on her head and pressed down with a little force.

Song Chunniang was stunned for a moment, then quickly understood.

Then I was furious. Does he want to die? !

Pei Yuan saw Song Chunniang struggling, and put his lips close to her ear, trying to break her will, "When you bullied those girls, you didn't just use your hands, did you?"

Pei Yuan still remembered the beautiful girl he met in the Qinhuai River House when he captured Song Chunniang. There were fine bite marks on her body.

Song Chunniang is an experienced person, just because she has never done it for a man, doesn't mean she doesn't understand.

Song Chunniang struggled for a while, and then her neck lost its strength.

Pei Yuan was not in a hurry to achieve success. He tactfully withdrew his attack and let her head rest on his chest.

After a while, when Song Chunniang's breathing had completely stabilized, Pei Yuan tried to press her head again.

Song Chunniang did not cooperate, but she did not resist either.

Fortunately, Captain Pei has always been flexible and a polite person who knows when to advance and when to retreat.

Since his good friend refused to go into bed, he half sat up on his own initiative.

Unfortunately, without Song Chunniang's cooperation, no matter how he fiddled with her soft long hair, he couldn't get in.

Pei Yuan was patient, but it was the first time he manipulated Tiezi like this and painted her cheeks. The psychological stimulation was a little too much for him to bear.

At this moment, Song Chunniang raised her head and looked up at Pei Yuan from below, "I want to know this secret!"

She slowly rubbed her cheek against it and asked seriously, "Is it okay?"

Song Chunniang has realized that the only secrets that can truly bind the interests of both parties are those with extremely serious consequences.

Pei Yuan hesitated for a while, looking at the charming and slightly raised phoenix eyes, he was eventually misled by the beauty. On the third day of abstinence, he whispered his goal.

——"Prince Ning."

Song Chunniang was unfamiliar with what a king was. There were kings like the Zhu family and kings like that, all over the place.

She didn't have a very strong impression of Prince Ning.

But this also made her satisfied.

Being able to share Pei Yuan's secret, and such an important secret at that, proves that she has completely become a member of Pei Yuan's core group.

As long as she can participate and keep the secret firmly, even if she doesn't need to please Pei Qianhu in the future, Pei Qianhu will still regard her as an extremely important partner.

Pei Yuan fiddled with her head again, and this time her good friend came over obediently.

Pei Yuan closed his eyes and breathed heavily, showing his lung capacity.

Physical pleasure is certainly addictive, but the psychological pleasure seems to be even stronger.

Pei Yuan thought about the events from the time he met Song Chunniang to the present, the days when he would tag his good friend whenever he was bored, and the occasional charm she revealed.

For a moment, I wanted to hold her head and ask proudly, "You have come to this day?!"

Where's my passive?
Bless you quickly!
……

Pei Yuan got up a little late the next day.

Tiezi is fair and just in his business, and he leaves decisively after paying the price.

Pei Yuan used his blank and slow brain to perfect his plan.

I didn't fall asleep until I felt a little more confident, until the sky was just beginning to lighten.

After waking up the next day, Pei Yuan spent most of an hour reviewing his friend's performance last night.

I spent another cup of tea reviewing the plans regarding the Bazhou rebels.

Pei Yuan’s choice of Prince Ning is definitely the best choice at the moment.

Under the current circumstances, there are many people with ambitions, but not many with strength.

Prince Ning, Zhu Chenhao, happened to be the one who relied on the wealth accumulated over several generations to raise an army and cause chaos.

Moreover, Pei Yuan does not have to consider the after-sales issues for Zhu Chenhao. Whether Prince Ning will collapse in the future has nothing to do with him. He just wants to make a quick buck from it.

As for the issue of distribution, Pei Yuan doesn't need to worry about it.

Even if the course of history had been followed, the rebels in Bazhou would have had to move southwards from Huguang after fleeing back to Henan, and then be defeated in Huangzhou first, and finally be annihilated in Langshan, Jiangsu.

This process of defeat and escape happened to pass through Jiangxi!

There are three kings in Jiangxi, the Ning King, the Huai King and the Yi King. Among them, the Ning King, who occupies Nanchang Prefecture, is the most powerful one.

As long as Pei Yuan can sell the Bazhou rebels to King Ning and get the money from him, the wheel of history will send the Bazhou rebels to Jiangxi.

Now comes the problem.

The seller is interested, the buyer is capable, and logistics is no problem.

Then how can I sell the Bazhou rebels, who have nothing to do with me, to King Ning at a high price?

The main difficulty in this matter lies in how to gain the trust of King Ning.

Otherwise, if Pei Yuan rashly approached him to discuss a big business worth several divisions, King Ning's first reaction would probably be to call the police.

Furthermore, how can I take advantage of Prince Ning's intention to recruit the rebels in Bazhou and make them cooperate with me to achieve other goals on the chessboard?
Pei Yuan folded his hands and thought for a while at the head of the bed. He felt that this matter might still require the cooperation of Han Qianhu.

The main reason is that this matter is very dependent on communication between the two parties, and it is obviously too late for one person to handle it alone.

The person Pei Yuan trusted the most was naturally Han Qianhu.

It's not that Pei Yuan is obsessed with sex and keeps thinking about her.

It was because Pei Yuan had bet too much on her and could no longer afford to lose.

If Captain Han were to target Pei Yuan, not only would his dividends from Huai'an speculation, but even his current power and position would be lost.

Pei Yuan also thought about the idea of ​​living off someone last time, but there is no mature plan yet.

Therefore, as the stakes grew bigger and the bond between him and Han Qianhu grew closer, he had no choice but to go all the way and choose to continue to trust Han Qianhu.

Pei Yuan pushed open the door and walked out of his room. A guard immediately came forward and asked, "Captain, do you want to summon a few centurions?"

Pei Yuan thought for a moment and said, "Call Sikong Sui and a few generals over here. And bring me some food."

Now I live in the territory of Huai'an Wei and am under the surveillance of Huai'an Wei, but there are also benefits. At least I don't have to worry about the money.

He Huan, the commander of Huai'an Guard, thought that he had come up with an unsolvable conspiracy and there was no way he would go to such lengths to commit suicide and steal.

He is now happily waiting for the Bazhou Army to move south so that he can divide the money openly.

Pei Yuan was disdainful of this idea in his heart, but he had no intention of openly resisting it.

You know, although the fighting capacity of Huai'an Wei and Dahe Wei is unknown, they are quite courageous.

For example, the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, who was said to be easily soluble in water, fell into the water in Huai'an Prefecture a few years later.

Before the food arrived, Sikong Sui and several generals came over.

Pei Yuan still asked Sikong Sui about Han Qianhu's whereabouts.

Sikong Sui was also very puzzled.

He and Pei Yuan were in the same group that left Yangzhou early. He didn't know as much about Han Qianhu's affairs as Pei Yuan did. He didn't know why Pei Yuan would ask him about Han Qianhu every time he went to look for him.

In response to this, Sikong Sui could only say that he would contact the spy in Yangzhou to find out the whereabouts of Han Qianhu.

Pei Yuan was quite sure that Han Qianhu might be somewhere in Chaheji, so he said to Song Chunniang, "You should go and look for him. If you can meet Han Qianhu, tell her that I have something very important to discuss with her."

Song Chunniang knew that Pei Yuan was talking about the incident he mentioned last night.

He stood up and answered.

Her voice was a little hoarse, as if she had caught a cold.

Song Chunniang glanced at Pei Yuan, and Pei Yuan looked back at her tacitly.

Pei Yuan then changed the subject and looked at Chen Tou Tie and said, "Nanda Sima has seen you and knows that you are my confidant. Go and pass on a message for me and ask for an official document."

"Just say that in order to resist the Bazhou rebels from moving south, the Nanjing Military Department will deploy some garrisons to the north. They will be stationed in Shanyang, Qinghe and other places. Ask him to write down a few more garrisons to strengthen the momentum. Remember, tell him not to keep a record and to keep the troops in place for the time being."

Several centurions and generals were still unaware of Huai'an Wei's plan, so naturally they didn't have much to say about the letter.

I just feel that it is really an encouraging thing that my own Qianhu can order the mighty Nan Da Sima around at will.

No one doubted that Pei Yuan was bragging, because everyone present had seen with their own eyes how respectful Wang Chang, the Nanjing Minister of War, was in front of Captain Pei.

On that night of freezing rain, Chen Toutie was one of the people who followed Pei Yuan into the post station and killed many people.

Pei Yuan thought for a moment, and then said to Chen Toutie, "If I'm not here when you come back from Yangzhou, then I'll leave the official document in your hands first. Once you hear that Suqian, Shuyang, Taoyuan and other places are being harassed by Bazhou, immediately find a reliable person to pretend to be an official from the Nanjing Military Department and deliver this official document to He Huan, the commander of Huai'an Guard."

Wait for Chen to agree firmly.

Pei Yuan also reminded him, "Carefully select an experienced newcomer, and let him return to Nanjing after the work is done."

Chen Toutie stood up again and said, "I understand. I will pick one from the personal soldiers who went to the Suzhou prefectural government office last time."

Chen Toutie was quite careful in his work, so Pei Yuan felt relieved when he handed the task over to him.

Pei Yuan's move was naturally intended to disrupt Huai'an Wei's plan.

After hearing what Zhou Chao relayed to He Huan, he would certainly target the rebels in Bazhou and try to lure them south.

From a certain perspective, at least in terms of getting the Bazhou rebels to move south as quickly as possible, Pei Yuan’s interests are consistent with theirs.

Moreover, once the news of the Bazhou rebels heading south gets out, prices may react immediately.

Then Han Qianhu will have more time to speculate in nuts.

Once the news that the Bazhou rebels are heading south is clear, He Huan will definitely actively write to the court and request the disposal of the commercial tax money.

But at this time, if He Huan knew that several garrisons in Nanzhili were about to move northward and enter Huai'an, he would definitely temporarily suppress this plan.

Because the disadvantage of open conspiracy is that although it is upright and irresistible, once it is launched, its clear purpose and route make it easy for others to interfere.

If Huai'an and Dahe were to share the silver, what about the other guards from Nanzhili? As foreign troops who had come here at great pains to defend against the enemy, wouldn't they have more reason to get their hands on the silver?

If that's the case, then wouldn't He Huan's hard work be just a waste of time for someone else?
Therefore, He Huan, who was unwilling to suffer any loss, had to delay the launch of this plan.

This also gave Pei Yuan room to respond.

An inexplicable conspiracy? Haha, it doesn't exist.

If the plan itself is difficult to counter, then just attack the person who launched the plan. As long as the other party is forced to keep holding back, what is the use of even the most powerful conspiracy?
Just as Pei Yuan was about to continue arranging things, the Jinyiwei guards who were guarding outside came in and reported, "Sir, Captain Zhou from the Huai'an Guard is here to see you!"

Pei Yuan was stunned.

How come the Zhou Dynasty came so early?

Could it be that He Huan has already prepared bait to attract the rebels in Bazhou?

If you want to attract the rebels in Bazhou to split up their forces, it's not something that can be done with just a few tricks. Is Huai'an Wei so willing to bleed?

Let me tell you the reader group number (167994371). This is an old group. A friend of mine joined it, so I might as well talk about it. We can discuss it if there is anything. It’s best not to urge for more updates…
