Chapter 174 Seeking Liaodong

After a few days, Yang Yi did not come again. Instead, intelligence from Liaodong came over, saying that the Xianbei allied forces concentrated their forces to attack Wandu. The city of Wandu was destroyed, King Jinyang was killed, and Goguryeo was destroyed. Then, the Xianbei army did not rest and reorganize. Instead, they immediately joined forces and launched a sudden attack on Gongsundu's border defenders, quickly broke through the defense line, and continued their attack southward.

The entire Liaodong war situation has reversed, and the situation is strange and changeable.

Gongsun Du was so worried that he hurriedly sent Yang Yi to Liucheng again to ask for reinforcements. Song Ji immediately sent people up the mountain to inform Zheng Yu, but he still felt that it was better not to participate in the initial stage. You and I would go back and forth on the negotiations, and there would definitely be some sparks in it. , it is better to let Song Ji and Tian Chou come forward first, especially since women are more cautious, and negotiations are more advantageous. Therefore, it is better to inform Song Ji and let her arrest them boldly.

Song Ji asked Yang Yi to talk to Tian Chou first. Tian Chou received Yang Yi in the Prime Minister's Mansion and said, "Sir Yang Yi, it's not that we don't help, but we do have difficulties."

The two of them had been talking for a long time in the living room. Tian Chou was in high spirits, while Yang Yi looked tired. During this time, he traveled between Liaodong and Liucheng and suffered a lot, but Gongsun Du was anxious and asked him to be sure to invite him. Reinforcement, otherwise the whole Liaodong war situation will be ruined, and he will have to retreat to the east of Mazi River, but there are still 100,000 Wuhuan troops waiting for him there.

Therefore, Yang Yi only stayed in Liaodong for a few days. After discovering that Xianbei's 100,000-strong army had crossed the border, Gongsun Du hurriedly asked him to come to Liaodong again for help. The conditions allowed him to bravely attack, but Zheng Yu's side was like a lion's mouth. It was requested that all existing Liaodong County be transferred to Zheng Yu on behalf of the imperial court.

"Master Tian Chou, for the sake of the Han people, please help my lord. At this time, the Xianbei army goes south, and the Han people will suffer in the end," Yang Yi begged. At this time, he really wanted to kneel down to Tian Chou. If Kneeling down is useful.

Tian Chou did not answer him, but stood up and walked around in the living room, making Yang Yi anxious.

But after Tian Chou stood up, he turned to Yang Yi and said: "Your master has left the Han Dynasty. How is it different for us from foreigners? Mr. Gongsun Du lives on the throne and is dispatched by the court. He should be loyal to the court and guard the border for the Han Dynasty." Yes, why did you take advantage of the civil strife in the Han Dynasty to separate your own country and become the king of the mountain? Master Liu Yu received the order from the court and was going to launch an army to attack your lord, but gave up because of insufficient troops. You see, Master Gongsun Du really did this. We made a big mistake,"

"This, this," Yang Yi was at a loss for words. He left the Han Dynasty and asked for reinforcements. How could the other party help him? He originally wanted to explain a few words. For example, because Dong Zhuo was in chaos, the imperial order was equal to Dong Zhuo ordered him to leave the court, so Gongsun Du left the court, but after thinking about it, he still closed his mouth and sat alone on the chair to sulk.

I was thinking in my heart that it seemed that I would be unable to fulfill my lord's mission. I was so sad when I thought about it that I actually shed tears.

After Tian Chou severely rebuked Yang Yi, he completely broke through Yang Yi's psychological defense. Then his voice softened, he sighed heavily, and said regretfully: "I think that Liaodong is mainly composed of Han people. This time the ferocious Xianbei people went south, and the Han people again There's going to be a big disaster,"

After sighing, he returned to his seat and drank tea alone, waiting for Yang Yi to calm down.

In fact, although Yang Yi was worried about not being able to complete Gongsun Du's mission, he was a special envoy after all, and of course he was a man of firm mind. Shedding tears was just a tactic to mourn the troops. Seeing that Tian Chou seemed to have room for change in his words, she couldn't help but look up at him. .

"Sir Zitai, Yangyi requests you to speak kindly in front of the governor. In fact, when Mr. Gongsundu comes, Yangyi still hopes that Yangyi will meet the governor on behalf of my lord," Yang Yi said. It was another request to see Zheng Yu.

But Tian Chou just waved his hand and said: "What a coincidence. Mr. Liu of Jicheng has urgent matters and wants my lord to go back. Mr. Yang Yi will not be able to see him for a while. In fact, he told me before he left that Grant Her Majesty Queen Wuhuan has full authority to handle this matter, and Zitai is assisting Her Majesty the Queen,"

Yang Yi didn't dare to say anything, it was clear that Zheng Yu didn't want to see him.

Seeing Yang Yi's dejected look, Tian Chou was secretly happy, thinking that it was almost done, so he said to Yang Yi: "Her Majesty the Queen has received full authorization from my lord. I wonder if Master Gongsun Du has fully authorized Master Yang Yi to come to discuss matters. ,"

Yang Yi lowered her head and said, "Master Gongsun Du gave me the authorization."

But Tian Chou's expression immediately calmed down, with a face filled with displeasure, and he said coldly: "I won't talk about the previous conditions. It's shameful. Obviously Master Yang Yi is not sincere. My lord wanted to take back Liaodong on behalf of the imperial court. Today he also and Let me tell you the bottom line. My lord was ordered by Lord Liu Yu to immediately send troops to take back Liaodong after the battle between Xianbei and Gongsundu. At that time, not only would they attack Xianbei, but your lord would also be the target of the imperial court's crusade. In other words, Gongsun Du is a traitor."

Tian Chou's words were so harsh that Yang Yi was speechless for a long time. She lowered her head and began to sigh again, her face extremely depressed.

After a while, Tian Chou said: "If our condition is to take back the entire Liaodong county, can Mr. Yangyi agree? This is our bottom line. As long as the two sides negotiate well, we can not use troops from Gongsundu's army. Otherwise, even your lord will be killed." They will all be escorted to Chang'an to receive punishment from the court."

"But we need somewhere to go," Yang Yi pleaded.

"Liaodong is the Liaodong of the imperial court and the Liaodong of the Han people. My lord, on behalf of the imperial court, can send troops without directly using troops against Gongsun Du. This is the greatest kindness. Does Lord Gongsun Du still want to bargain?"

"This, this," Yang Yi stuttered again.

Tian Chou stood up abruptly and said loudly: "Don't do this. If Master Yangyi does not get the authorization from Master Gongsundu, you should go back immediately and inform Gongsundu to come. The court wants Liaodong County. This cannot be changed, otherwise , we will use troops against Liaodong at the appropriate time, and the outcome will not be so mild. It will be a battle against rebellion. If Lord Gongsun Du has any grievances, please come to the court to defend him,"

After saying that, he said loudly to the attendant outside the door: "See you off."

Tian Chou's attitude changed drastically, which frightened Yang Yi out of his wits. Then, Chief Yang Yi knelt on the ground and said loudly: "Master Zitai, please listen to the last few words of Yang Yi."

Tian Chou turned around and said coldly: "You have finished what you have to say. There is still something left to say."

Yang Yi raised his head, nodded to Tian Chou and said: "Before coming, Master Gongsun Du requested that the two counties of Lelang and Daifang to the east of Mazishui must be given to us as habitats, otherwise hundreds of thousands of Liaodong troops will be killed again." Where to go,"

Tian Chou sat back on his seat and snorted: "Liaodong is the territory of the Han Dynasty. The Liaodong Army is the army of the Han Dynasty. It is supposed to guard the border for the Han Dynasty. Gongsun Du not only stole Liaodong County to support himself, but also took away tens of thousands of the Han Dynasty." The army has committed a heinous crime,"

But Yang Yi couldn't take care of it at this time. She still couldn't kneel down, and with tears streaming down her face, she choked and said: "We also know that the master has handled this matter improperly, so I ask for your forgiveness and talk to him." Lord Xiaoyun reports that Lelang and Daifang counties must be left for us to live in. We have hundreds of thousands of troops and hundreds of thousands of civilians. What should we do?"

Tian Chou still sat on the chair in silence. After a long time, he said calmly: "Is this the opinion of Master Yang Yi or Gongsun Du?"

"It's my lord's opinion." At this point, Yang Yi didn't want to negotiate. She thought to herself that the Xianbei army was moving south, and Liaodong could not be defended at all. Gongsun Du had planned to retreat to the east of Mazi River. It was decided to compete with Uda for a large area of ​​territory east of Mazi River. Therefore, family members and subordinates were gathered to prepare to transport relevant materials there.

But at present, Wu Da led 100,000 troops to surround Fangjun City. If this battle was defeated, Gongsun Du would be completely finished. Therefore, he did not hesitate to pay a huge price, and even exchanged the entire Liaodong County with Zheng Yu to request troops to reinforce him.

Tian Chou sighed and said, "But Daifang and Lelang are the lands of the Han Dynasty."

"We know this, but currently Uda has led an army of 100,000 to occupy Lelang and Daifang. The lord hopes to send troops to help the Han recover these fallen territories and use them as our habitat," Yang Yi explained quickly.

Tian Chou said coldly: "Wuda is just a military encirclement. Lelang is still in the hands of Gongsun Du. He not only stole Liaodong, but also sent troops to attack another territory of the imperial court without authorization. Humph, you are so audacious. Go back and tell him, Agree to temporarily leave the two counties of Daifang and Lelang to Gongsun Du and his troops, but it must be made clear that this is the territory of the Han Dynasty and no one may infringe. In the future, gifts and other materials must be contributed to the court every year. If Master Yangyi If we can decide, we will make this rule today. If we can't decide, please go back to Liaodong to discuss with Gongsun Du immediately. We only give ten days..."

Tian Chou presented the request to Yang Yi and stipulated the number of items required to be paid tribute each year.

"I don't know when Master Zheng Yu will come back. Yang Yi hopes to meet him. This is what the lord has repeatedly told me when he came to Liucheng," Yang Yi pleaded again.

Tian Chou laughed and said, "Her Majesty the Queen and Zitai have received full authorization from my lord. Besides, you don't have time to wait, so you should go back to Gongsun Du as soon as possible to discuss it. Next time, remember to bring Lord Gongsun Du's autographed letter and other tokens. , It’s not that Zitai doesn’t trust Mr. Yang Yi, it’s just that the matter is serious and he must act with caution.

After saying that, Tian Chou sent Yang Yi back to the library. Even his desire to see Her Majesty the Queen was rejected.

Then, Tian Chou got on the carriage and went to the palace and reported the matter to Song Ji in person. Song Ji was overjoyed after hearing this, "Zitai brought the entire Liaodong County over."

Tian Chou smiled with a smile on his face, nodded and said: "Yang Yi was very frightened. I told you that my lord was going to send troops to Liaodong to fight against rebellion, and that Gongsun Du was going to be captured and sent to the court. His face turned pale at that time. The key is Gongsun Du." Facing extreme difficulties, if we do not send troops, he will still be unable to defend Liaodong, and he will also face an east-west attack from the Xianbei and Wuhuan armies, and the possibility of the entire army being annihilated is extremely high."

Song Ji was also full of joy and said loudly: "In this case, Gongsun Du is desperate. It seems that he will agree." Tian Chou said cautiously: "I want Yang Yi to take Gongsun Du's seal and other It will take some time for the token to come to us to reach an agreement,"

The two discussed for a while, and Tian Chou immediately left the palace and informed Yang Yi: "Her Majesty the Queen has agreed. Please Yang Yi, please leave the city immediately and go to Liaodong. You don't have much time."
