The envoy sent by Wei Qian'er came to the inn in the city, found Hou Dexing, and brought a new order.
Hou Dexing, who had been eating, drinking and having fun in Daliang City and was far away from the war, seemed to have forgotten his identity as an envoy. After seeing this personal letter from Wei Qian'er, he ordered the people to prepare. He was taking a good bath After a while, they went straight to the palace.
Tang Jia, who has been in charge of the country for a while, now does things much better than before, and has gradually become accustomed to his current position.
Especially after the war in Qingzhou ended, no one came to trouble Da Gan, and the war spread straight to the south. He was even more happy to put all his troubles aside, hide in the palace, and enjoy the peace and tranquility of the states. He chooses a beautiful girl and acts as his groom every night.
Tang Zi is also from Daqian. Tang Jia is far behind Tang Ao in terms of ability, courage and vision. But there is one thing he is better than Tang Ao, that is, after half a year of trouble, three women got pregnant. his children.
Tang Jia's child will be the purest bloodline of Daqian and represents the hope of Daqian's future. Many courtiers were very happy for this. Even Emperor Qianwen, who was bedridden, heard the news and sent Yan Fu to deliver it. reward.
Tang Jia, who was full of ambition, seemed to have seen the moment when he was sitting on the throne. At this time, someone came to report that Desing was coming to the palace to ask for an audience. He knew that his comfortable days were going to be far away.
"Xuan. Invite the Master of Confucius as well." Tang Jia gave up the idea of continuing to fool around in the harem and said to the eunuch beside him.
The so-called Confucius University Scholar naturally refers to Kong Fu. In just half a year, Kong Fu was promoted to a higher rank, from the original imperial censor to a university scholar, and his official rank was upgraded to the second rank.
Soon, Hou Dexing came to the Yangxin Hall. Then Kong Fu also came to the main hall. When they met, they both gave each other a knowing look, and then they all looked at the grandmaster's chair next to the golden dragon chair. Tang Jia salutes.
The prisoner is only the prisoner, not the real emperor. Naturally, he cannot sit on the golden dragon chair.
"Get up. Envoy, I believe you have come to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing. Tell me why you are here." Tang Jia said casually, but his ears had already been perked up and he cheered up.
Hou Dexing was not polite when his name was called, and gave a brief explanation of the letter from Wei Qian'er. "Your Highness, our Lord has decided to return with the 800,000 Xiongnu army in the near future. Please send someone to Take over Ganzhou, and at the same time, please provide convenience and make way for the journey north."
This was originally agreed upon by both parties. The Huns were willing to form an alliance with Tang Jia and return the captured territory to his hands. However, if one day they wanted to return to the North, Tang Jia would provide necessary conveniences.
Of course, it is hard to go back on the promise now. Not to mention what Hou Dexing said, the Huns have an army of 800,000 people. What kind of strength is this? With the current strength of the Daqian Army, if they can block it, So it’s not certain who will win and who will lose.
"Well, I am aware of this matter. Bachelor Kong, what's your opinion?" Tang Jia would not object, but he still wanted to hear his opinion and see if there is anything missing.
Hou Dexing's dirty money had already been collected. At this time, Kong Fu of course wanted to speak for the other party. He would not veto it, so he said: "Your Highness, this was originally a matter that we both agreed upon. Now that the Xiongnu If the army is willing to return to the north, we should provide support. Later, His Highness will only need to make an announcement, saying that through His Highness's efforts, the Huns were finally persuaded to leave the South and return to the North, and that our large army will soon conquer Ganzhou. , I think people all over the world will praise His Highness when they know it."
"Oh? That's right, that's right. That's how things are. In this case, let's leave this matter to Academician Kong." This is a good thing to build a reputation. How could Tang Jia let it go? He said with a face of great joy at that moment. With.
"I obey." Kong Fu immediately clasped his fists and saluted.
When Hou Dexing saw that the matter had come to pass, he also bowed happily and exited the Hall of Cultivation of the Heart.
Soon, the news spread in Daliang City that the Prince of Jianguo had tried his best to persuade the Huns to abandon the south and return to the north.
When they heard the news on the first day of the new year, many people were still celebrating, thinking that they had a good governor and a good prince who knew how to think about the people of Daqiannan. But soon this trend began to change.
"Have you heard? All the Ganren people in the Southland have been killed and robbed long ago, and the cities there have long ceased to exist. The Huns did all kinds of evil there, and now that they have done harm to the Southland, they want to They are coming to cause trouble in our northern land."
"Yes, I have also heard about it. This is not the result of the communication between the prison country and the Huns at all, but the Huns themselves proposed it. They have robbed enough in the south and want to return to their ancestral land in the north. Already."
"Oh, I also heard that the Chinese army entered Xiangzhou and began to spread to the south. The Huns were defeated by the Chinese army. It was because they were afraid that they thought of retreating."
As a few people started talking, and their voices were not quiet, other people soon stopped. Someone stepped forward and said, "Is there such a thing? How can we let the Huns get what they want?" Let them harm our southern land again, and now they want to disturb the tranquility of our northern land?"
"Who says otherwise? I heard that these Huns are like locusts. Wherever they pass, there is no vegetation. If they come to our north, what benefits can we get? If we don't do it well, these Huns People will still attack us."
"Ah! Doesn't that mean that if the Huns come to the north, we will also be in danger?"
"That's right. The Huns have returned to their ancestral homeland in the north and are very close to us. They may threaten us at any time. I really don't know what the prison country is thinking. Why should they let them go north? It's better than this general They're stuck in the Southland."
"Brother, I have great advice. Now the Southland has been beaten to pieces. There is often not even a human habitation in a hundred miles radius. Even so, it is better to trap them to death, and then let the Chinese army destroy them in the area. It's good there, so that we in the North will be safer."
People have the instinct to avoid danger. When they know that danger is approaching, they will instinctively avoid and avoid it.
You may say that this is a sign of cowardice, but why is it not a kind of human nature?
Longya and Anxiang had already prepared a response plan, and the news from Zhuang Cheng had already confirmed many things. As far as Tang Ao was concerned, he would never let the Huns return to the North. Not for now. I have said that north of Daliang is the territory of the Great Qian Army. Let’s just say that the Huns made so much money in the south. With Tang Ao’s character, how could he let them leave so easily?
If the Huns successfully returned to the north this time, it would be due to Tang Ao's incompetence. With this advantage, wouldn't they be able to go south anytime they want in the future without any scruples?
Moreover, the north had just been settled, and Tang Ao would never allow the flames of war to be ignited there, so he arranged for Longya and Anxiang early, ready to release unfavorable news to the Xiongnu at any time, so that the people would know what was going on. things.
The secret agents of Longya and Anxiang were dispatched one after another. Under the initiative, the atmosphere in Daliang City changed rapidly, and it continued to spread outside Daliang City.
Tai Chi Hall of the Imperial Palace.
Tang Jiazheng was presiding over the government affairs, and they were talking about who would lead the troops to the south and conquer Ganzhou.
At the court meeting, Kong Fu first stood up and told the story of his conversation with the Huns envoy, and then retreated to the court. Then it was Tang Jia's turn. He seemed to be in good spirits and in a good mood. In front of all the ministers, he expounded the great significance of the recovery of Ganzhou, and said that this was one of the greatest achievements of the Daqian army in recent years. Then he turned his attention to the generals and asked: " Generals, this is a great opportunity to become famous all over the world, who is willing to go?"
After asking this question with a smile, Tang Jia waited for someone to stand up and grab this job. This was a great achievement, and the people below would definitely grab the head. At that time, he made a decision , will be the best time to show your authority.
But even after asking, there was no response. On the contrary, many generals lowered their heads, as if there was something attracting them under their feet, making them unwilling to raise their heads at all.
The silence of the crowd shocked Tang Jia. He thought he had not explained clearly, so he continued: "Generals, I have already discussed with the Huns. As long as you show up in Ganzhou with your troops, they will leave immediately. , there will be no war during this period.”
I almost said it was a free bargain, but the generals below still looked indifferent.
The reason why the generals reacted like this is not because of the rumors in the city, but because they all know that Ganzhou is located in the middle of the south, with Zhezhou and Fuzhou in the east, and there are many Japanese Japanese ghosts stationed there. .
To the south is Yuezhou, which has been captured by the South Vietnamese Army and belongs to others. To the west is Xiangzhou. Now that the Great Chinese Army has entered there, it should soon fight with the Western Shu Army and the South Vietnamese Army.
And what's the use of occupying such a dangerous place?
I'm afraid that if we just occupied that place today, we will face attacks from the east, west, and south tomorrow. If this is the case, wouldn't it be too dangerous?
For the sake of a state that has been destroyed and there are not many people left, you need to take risks yourself. Once you lose it, you will not only face the result of being scolded by the people of the whole country, but you will even be punished by the court.
With such a mess, whoever wants to go can just go. They have no intention of fighting over it.
