Chapter two hundred and ninety seventh temptation(1/2)

Seeing Yang Fu, he was speechless for a while and his expression was wrinkled.

Prime Minister Yadan also felt more and more comfortable.

He had already understood the current situation in Guanzhong before.

We know that the area around Chang'an has experienced Dong Zhuo's wrath, as well as the Li and Guo rebellions.

Under the torment of war again.

Today, the Guanlong side is in dilapidated condition.

The reason why he compared his country's capital with Chang'an, the former capital of the Han Dynasty, was to undermine Cao's confidence.

Now seeing him secretly frustrated and not knowing how to deal with it, he was naturally in a very good mood.

only.

Yang Fu from the side was secretly watching the changes in his expression.

Look at the slight hint of joy on his face, and the corners of his mouth are also raised.

It was obvious that he had figured out Yadan's plan.

Hearing this, Yang Fu pretended to be surprised and responded in surprise: "Ah? I wonder where Prime Minister Ya got the news?"

"Oh? Sir, is there any other secret behind this matter?"

Seeing the completely different expression on the envoy's face, he asked with a smile while remaining unchanged in response to the ever-changing situation.

He still wanted to see how the Han envoy was going to argue in the face of the facts.

only.

Yang Fu, who had already understood everything, responded in an understatement: "Of course not!"

"What I mean is that maybe Prime Minister Ya's source of information is untrue."

"We currently have tens of thousands of elite troops stationed in various places in Guanzhong, and our logistics supplies are self-sufficient, and we do not need supplies from the court at all."

"If it is true as Prime Minister Ya said, with the population declining and the land barren and dilapidated, how can we support tens of thousands of people?"

"Prime Minister Ya is the prime minister of a country. I think he knows this matter very well."

"I hope Prime Minister won't listen to rumors easily."

One word after another, let it fall slowly.

Hearing Yang Fu's response.

Yadan was shocked, could Guanzhong really support tens of thousands of Cao's troops?

He dared to conclude that Guanzhong had experienced several wars.

Chang'an, the imperial capital, will never be as prosperous as it used to be.

But he also knew that if it was really dilapidated, it would definitely not be able to support tens of thousands of troops.

However, his eyes carefully observed Yang Fu's expression.

He seemed to want to find some flaws in it, but after quietly observing for a long time, he saw that Yang Fu's face had a strong look of confidence from beginning to end.

For a while, I didn't want to continue to argue with him on this matter.

Instead, he secretly recorded the matter, and afterward he would rearrange his manpower to sneak into the past to find out whether what he said was true.

"Oh, since it's like what Mr. said, maybe the truth is wrong."

"It's better that you don't keep it in mind!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Yang Fu cupped his hands and responded: "Prime Minister Ya has many things to do every day, so it is normal for him to neglect such small things."

This matter has come to an end for now!

From then on, the two of them continued to plot against each other along the way.

After half a ring.

We just arrived at the inn.

With Prime Minister Yadan coming forward, a residence was easily arranged for Yang Fu and his party.

Immediately afterwards, Yadan and Yang Fu were alone in a room, chatting in detail.

As for the attendants on both sides, they just stood outside the door and waited quietly.

"This wing is an elegant place, and no one will come in and disturb you."

"Your envoy, are you willing to tell the truth about our country's intentions?"

After testing each other on the road just now.

Prime Minister Yadan has already seen that the person in front of him is by no means an easy person.

As soon as he said this, he was secretly on guard, not daring to be careless in the slightest.

After hearing this, the envoy Yang Fu who was sitting opposite him at the banquet had already felt that the prime minister of the Western Qiang Kingdom was not a good person. After hearing his inquiry, his face seemed to show no emotion.

After pondering for a while, he smiled slightly and said softly: "Prime Minister Ya has the ability to predict things like a god. Can he still discern the purpose of my coming to your country this time?"

As soon as he said it, he did not directly state his intention, but flattered him first.

"Hahaha..." After hearing the compliments, Yadan would not be coaxed. He just laughed symbolically and said in a deep voice:

"Your Majesty, please stop praising the truth."

"If you have any intention of coming, it's best to make it clear as soon as possible."

"My king's patience is limited. If you want your envoy to hide it, you may end up with the two families turning against each other in the future."

In one word.

Yang Fucui no longer concealed his purpose.

Yadan had already made it very clear in his words, implying that if he continued to act like this, there would be no need for the two families to continue talking.

Seeing this, the look on his face couldn't help but become more solemn, and he said in a deep voice: "Since Prime Minister Ya attaches so much importance to it, then I will tell you frankly."

"My trip is specifically based on the wishes of the governor of Liangzhou. I came to Laqiang to visit the King of Xiqiang and seek to establish friendly relations with your country so that the two sides can cooperate and advance and retreat together."

After the purpose of his visit was gradually made clear, Yang Fu seemed to pause for a moment, then continued in a questioning tone:

"May I ask Prime Minister Ya, is your country or the Qiang King willing to have relations with us?"

As soon as this statement came out.

Instead, it was Yadan's turn to remain silent for a while.

According to Cao's wishes, he came to seek an alliance between the two sides to fight against the enemy.

For military reports from various places in Liangzhou.

As the prime minister of a country, he is usually responsible for various government affairs, logistics, intelligence and other miscellaneous contents of the country.

Naturally, I have heard about the sudden changes in Longxi!

The tens of thousands of Cao's troops were unable to break through the Shu army's defense line head-on, so the situation became stalemate.

Now watching Cao Fang's envoys rushing towards him, Prime Minister Yadan gradually thought about it in his heart, and gradually figured out why the other party wanted to form an alliance with his side.

Nothing more than wanting to use our own military power to intimidate the Shu army and drive them out of the country.

A strategy of quick victory at full speed.

He pondered for about half a moment.

Prime Minister Yadan did not immediately respond to the matter.

Although the Qiang King named him prime minister, he was in charge of important affairs of the country.

However, he still has to inform other countries in advance about this alliance, and he still cannot make a decision.

"Oh, so your country hopes to form an alliance with us?"

"What Prime Minister Ya said is true, it is true!"

Hearing this, Yang Fu didn't have any hidden intentions at this moment and responded directly.

As long as Yadan hears the truth, he will not be kicked out of the royal city directly.

He believes that there is great potential for the alliance!

The two discussed it in detail again.

Immediately afterwards, Yadan's face relaxed, but there was still a strong smile on his face, and then he asked with a somewhat curious tone:

"Sir, the truth is that in recent times, your army was severely defeated in the Battle of Hanzhong, after the Shu army occupied the entire territory of Hanchuan."

"In recent days, the Shu army seems to be extremely rampant, constantly sending troops north to harass the border areas, but I don't know if this is true?"

Hearing these words, Yang Fu did not notice any sarcasm or ridicule in his face, so he admitted it calmly.

"There is such a thing. I wonder if Prime Minister Ya has any questions?"

After the words fell, he defeated Yadan's army again and kicked the ball back.
To be continued...
