Chapter 1627: Justice Backstab

 In fact, Qin Hao also knows that the current situation Beihai is facing is not as bad as he thought.

Although Ran Min fell in this battle, and even the Huben camp was wiped out, the biggest crisis faced by Li Jing was resolved before Ran Min died.

 What is the biggest crisis faced by Li Jing? They were simply afraid of being entangled by Zhou Yafu's cavalry and eventually being overtaken by Wang Mang's army, so that they would not be able to return to Beihai.

 But as Ran Min killed Gongsun Shu before his death, Li Jing's crisis had actually been resolved.

Ran Min's solo battle with the four war gods was actually much more complicated than it seemed. Although his final blow could only kill one person, in fact neither Gongsun Shu nor Ju Wuba could stop him.

After a brief weighing of the pros and cons, Ran Min chose Gongsun Shu instead of the stronger Juwuba, simply because Gongsunshu was a prince, while Juwuba was just a general.

It is better to die with a prince than a general, right?

With this idea in mind, Ran Min chose to die together with Gongsun Shu, but what happened afterwards was beyond his expectation.

Although Ran Min died in the end, the death of Gongsun Shu caused great trouble to Wang Mang's army.

Of the 80,000 Northern Han coalition troops, 30,000 were Gongsun Shu's subordinates. They were unwilling to go thousands of miles to fight in Qingzhou. Not only did they not get half a cent of benefit, but now even their leader Gongsun Shu died in the battle.

Witnessing Gongsun Shu's death in battle, the remaining Liaodong cavalry exploded, making it impossible for Zhou Yafu to block the news.

When the Liao army on Wang Mang's side received the news, the situation became even more out of control.

Without Gongsun Shu, Wang Mang lost control of the Liao army. Now the Liao army's uprising was about to break out, and the Northern Han coalition forces had to use all their forces to suppress it, thus missing the best opportunity to pursue Li Jing's army.

“Damn Ran Min, even if you die, you won’t let me live in peace.” Wang Mang clenched his fists and cursed angrily.

The Liao army's uprising came and went quickly. Only a few hundred people were killed, and the uprising was completely suppressed. Not only did it not cause much damage to the coalition forces, it actually strengthened Wang Mang's strength.

Although Wang Mang had nearly 30,000 more elite men under his command, he was not happy because the great opportunity to annihilate Li Jing was missed in vain.

In addition, although Wang Mang had recruited Gongsun Shu's 30,000 troops, there were still such hidden dangers that made Shajuan Lian and other generals fearful.

 In short, the coalition forces are no longer as united as before. This is definitely the worst news for Wang Mang.

The most troublesome thing for Wang Mang was the death of Gongsun Shu in the battle. Without Gongsun Shu as the person in charge, the Liao Kingdom would probably not listen to Wang Mang in everything. This caused Wang Mang to indirectly lose the biggest trump card in his hand.

"no solution anymore."

A hint of helplessness flashed in Wang Mang's eyes, and he sighed and ordered: "Send an order to Chen Baxian, asking him to forcibly absorb the military power of the Liao Kingdom and take over all the territory of the Liao Kingdom. Anyone who disobeys will be killed without mercy."

Originally, cooperating with Gongsun Shu and quietly digging into the corners of the Liao Kingdom was the best way for Wang Mang to grow.

But with the death of Gongsun Shu, the tool man, the cooperation with the Liao Kingdom could never return to the past, which forced Wang Mang to kill the goose to get the eggs.

Wang Mang knew without thinking that doing this would definitely arouse a lot of opposition, but he couldn't care less about it now. The people who died were not his people anyway, so he could make as much profit as possible.

What Wang Mang didn't know was that his order actually inspired Chen Baxian's ambition.

 After Gongsun Shu rebelled, Wang Mang left Chen Ba to assist Gongsun Shu firstly to check and balance Gongsun Shu, and secondly to control part of the power of the Liao Kingdom. At that time, Gongsun Shu was indeed inseparable from Chen Baxian. Without Wang Mang's power, or the power of the Northern Han Dynasty, he would not be able to control the country at all, so he took the initiative to assign some power to Chen Baxian.

This also resulted in that after both Wang Mang and Gongsun Shu left the Liao Kingdom, Chen Baxian became the most powerful person in the Liao Kingdom.

 Power tends to corrupt a person's heart.

Wang Mang was working **** the front line and did not even have his own territory, while Chen Baxian responded to the Liao Kingdom's response. This also made Mr. Chen Ba have a different idea, and he had the idea of ​​​​going alone in his heart.

After receiving Wang Mang's order, Chen Baxian not only failed to act according to the order, but instead took the initiative to inform the Liao ministers of the plan and chose to cooperate with Gongsun Shu's subordinates.

Gao Qiu, Cai Jing and other Liao ministers were filled with indignation when they saw that Wang Mang looked so ugly. After some deliberation, they decided to recommend Chen Baxian to fight against Wang Mang.

In this way, Chen Baxian, who had been hiding under Wang Mang, took the opportunity to kick Wang Mang away, got ahead of Wang Mang, and became a prince in one fell swoop.

Wang Mang was so angry that he almost vomited blood after learning about it. He naturally knew that Chen Baxian had ambitions, but he always felt that he could suppress it. If he paid more attention, Chen Baxian would definitely have no chance of rebellion.

Wang Mang had no choice but to keep Chen Baxian in the Liao Kingdom. After all, his men were short of talents. No one except Chen Baxian could take on this important task. However, he did not expect that as soon as he left, Chen Baxian would stand on his own feet.

After suffering such a big loss, Wang Mang naturally could not remain indifferent. He was just preparing to impose sanctions on him, but he did not expect that Chen Baxian would move faster and directly eliminate all the secrets he left behind. Then he even took the initiative to ask Liu Che. He proclaimed himself a minister and was officially canonized as King Chen by Liu Che.

Liu Che's canonization edict has been issued, and Chen Baxian has become one of his own. Under this general trend of unanimously resisting Qin, Wang Mang of course cannot continue to attack Chen Baxian.

“Well done to you Liu Che, very good, very good…”

At this point, how could Wang Mang not know that Liu Che was deliberately suppressing himself.

 Obviously, Wang Mang's annexation of Gongsun Shu's subordinates has aroused Liu Che's extreme dissatisfaction.

Wang Mang was just stabbed in the back by Chen Baxian, and then faced Liu Che's suppression, but he couldn't resist, and he felt extremely aggrieved.

But Wang Mang was worthy of being a hero of his generation, so he still suppressed the anger and aggrievedness in his heart, and wrote a letter in his own hand to congratulate Chen Baxian on becoming king, and wanted to get together with Chen Baxian.

Although Wang Mang wanted to cut Chen Baxian into pieces, he had to pretend to be generous. After all, Chen Qingzhi was still under his command.

 Chen Qingzhi is different from Chen Baxian. Although Chen Baxian betrayed him, it does not mean that Chen Qingzhi will also betray him.

 Therefore, if Wang Mang does not handle the issue of Chen Baxian's independence, he will easily break away from Chen Qingzhi. If Chen Qingzhi leaves at that time, most of the power he has managed to maintain will collapse.
