Chapter 486: Missions from various countries court Yan Emperor
Chapter 486: Envoys from various countries come to Emperor Yan
Palace.
The night was dark, and the wind in Hebei Province in late autumn was already quite chilly.
In the courtyard of the imperial study room, Wang Lin was wrapped in a black cloak, sitting quietly in the corridor, looking up at the crescent moon like a hook.
The fact that a drunken Mongolian, Guan Hai, the second prince of the Qiyan tribe, forced his way into the flower shop was certainly not a big deal.
But because it concerned the Mongols, Yan Qing still reported it truthfully.
Wang Lin smiled, turned his gaze away from the cold moon, and said calmly: "Just deal with it according to the rules. You can't indulge in unnecessary indulgence, but you don't need to be too harsh."
Yan Qing said respectfully: "I accept the decree. This person has openly violated His Majesty's prohibition. According to the law, he will be punished with a cane for thirty years."
Wang Lin nodded: "Don't kill him, just keep him alive. Xiao B, the Mongols have bad intentions this time. Can you find out the news clearly?"
The Mongolian delegation came for more than half a month, but Wang Lin refused to receive them. This was the time he left for Yan Qing to detect the Mongolian movements.
Yan Qing bowed and said: "Your Majesty, I have received news that among the eighteen Mongolian tribes, the Borjijin and Qiyan tribes have formed an alliance. Now the two tribes have gathered ten thousand cavalry and are lurking in the wilderness of Wuchuan.
I believe that the Mongols have ulterior motives for attacking Yanbei."
Wang Lin was silent for a long time and then said: "Xiao Yi, what do you think about the Mongols? Tell the truth, there is no need to hide it."
Yan Qing muttered: "Your Majesty, I believe that we should treat the Mongols with gentleness and intimidation as a supplement. After all, our country, Yan, is at war with the Kingdom of Jin and cannot be attacked on both sides."
Wang Lin smiled but remained silent.
Yan Qing's view is actually the view of Zhang Jun, Ma Kuo, Han Ting, Gu Qingchuan, Liu Qi and other military ministers. Even Yue Fei and other generals in the army believe that Yan cannot be attacked on both sides.
In the past two days, many courtiers have come forward to express this attitude and advise the emperor.
Although in the past Song royal princesses were not allowed to marry, they could also use their power to appease the Mongols through other means.
For example, a beautiful palace maid was given to Hebule as his wife.
Zheng Yuanshui from the Xixia mission even secretly entered the palace, met with the emperor, and informed the emperor of the many terrifying aspects of the Mongolian cavalry under his control.
They are all peoples on horseback. The Jin people are currently powerful, but that does not mean that the Mongols are not scary. In fact, Wang Lin knows this better than anyone else.
But he also knows that the Mongols are still very weak now.
The scattered Mongolian tribes are not enough to threaten Dayan.
A unified Mongolian tribe is definitely not in the interest of the Yan Dynasty.
Originally, the Mongols were a problem that Wang Lin would consider solving after he planned to destroy the Jin Dynasty. However, due to the Mongolians' ulterior motives, his plan had to be adjusted in advance.
During this period of time, Jin Yiwei's information about the various tribes in Mobei Mongolia came to Zhending like a flood, and was soon sent to Wang Lin's imperial study room in the palace.
Combining all kinds of intelligence and past life information, Wang Lin's murderous intention against Hebule becomes more serious.
This is a Mongolian with great ambitions. If he really seizes the opportunity to unify the various Mongolian tribes, even if it is temporary unification, it will be enough for the Mongols to rise.
In fact, in the original course of history, this man was the briefly unified Mongol king.
Wang Lin rarely uses his own system now.
After becoming the emperor, the resources and power he could mobilize were extremely huge. The existence of the system and his personal force were no longer dispensable compared to the power of the state machine.
But Wang Lin looked out at the palace every night and could feel the purple luck rising from the sky in the post house.
Although Hebule's luck was not as good as Wanyan Aguda and Wu Qimai, or even Zhao Gou, what he could be sure of was that Hebule was a person with a certain amount of luck, similar to Song Jiang back then.
Wang Lin did not take away Wu Qigong's luck that day.
Because he was worried that if Wu Qigong lost his luck, the power of the Jin Kingdom would be transferred to the main war faction, which would not be conducive to his calm plan to destroy the Jin Dynasty.
He did not take away Zhao Gou's luck, because before everything settled, he had to leave a way out for Huaxia Yiguan.
But he would never keep Hebule's luck.
We must take away not only his luck, but also his life!
If there is an opportunity, kill most of the Mongol forces for the future.
Wang Lin slowly looked inside his system panel.
As he reached the pinnacle of imperial power, his various attribute data were already in a saturated state, and the reputation and merit points that could be exchanged for food were also increasing day by day, which had already reached an astronomical figure.
He never used it again.
This is a huge amount of wealth that can save an army from the crisis of food shortage at a critical moment, and it is also his biggest trump card.
He would never use it again unless absolutely necessary.
Seeing that the emperor was deep in thought, Yan Qing stood aside with a solemn expression and said nothing.
After a long time, the emperor looked up at him and said with a smile: "Xiao Yi, almost everyone sees it this way now, and they all feel that my methods against the Mongols are too harsh and need to be more gentle.
Not only you, but also the Mongols themselves think so.
But I don’t see it that way. I only know that those who are not from my race must have different minds, and there is a reason why raising tigers is a danger.
Of course, the Mongols are not something to worry about now, but, Xiao Yi, you have to remember that Dayan will never be humiliated, bullied, coerced or trapped by foreigners!
If the Mongols want to surrender, I can naturally accommodate them.
But if they want to take advantage of Dayan, they are seeking their own death.
As for the marriage, let alone the princess of the former Song Dynasty royal family, even if I am an ordinary daughter of the Yan people, I will never allow myself to be bullied by a foreign race and become a stubborn creature!
Xiao Yi, you may not understand my thoughts now, but it doesn't matter, as long as you implement my will to the letter. I will bear all the consequences."
Although Wang Lin's voice was gentle and he had a smile on his face, Yan Qing's heart was awe-inspiring and she bowed to accept the order.
He gasped inwardly.
He realized that the emperor wanted to kill the Mongols.
There is never more than one Hepler.
"The decree was sent to Zongze, the commander-in-chief of the Yanbei army, and ordered Liu Yanqing, Han Shizhong and Wu Jie Wu Lin to all the troops. If the Mongols dare to invade Yanbei, they will be put into Yanbei and catch turtles in a jar, with ten thousand Mongolian cavalry and one
Don’t let them go!”
Currently, the troops of Ganlong defending Xixia and the 200,000 Western troops guarding Hedong, a total of 250,000, have been deployed in Yanbei by Wang Lin.
After Yanbei was captured, Dayan's defensive front automatically moved northward.
Zongze guarded the Yandai and Pianguan front lines.
Liu Yanqing and his son stayed in Yunnei.
Han Shizhong defended Datong.
Wu Jie and Wu Lin brothers guarded Hongzhou.
The entire Yanbei is not said to be impregnable, but it is extremely difficult for the Jin people to counterattack.
Not to mention a mere 10,000 Mongolian cavalry.
A cold light flashed in Wang Lin's eyes.
If the Mongols were not smart, they would have broken into the pocket formation that Wang Lin originally prepared for the Jin people.
Even if he went to war with the Mongols, Wang Lin did not feel that he would be attacked on both sides.
First of all, the Jin people were involved in involution, and the power of the main war faction had gradually weakened. Wu Qimai firmly controlled the military and political affairs of the Jin State. This meant that the Yan State and the Jin State ushered in a short period of peace.
If we first put aside the great cause of recovering Youzhou and other seven states, and then seize the opportunity to destroy two or three Mongolian tribes, firstly to plunder the army and horses, and secondly to intimidate the world, Wang Lin thought about it again and again and felt that it was feasible.
But Wang Lin would not do the thankless task of going deep into the Mongolian grasslands to conquer various Mongolian tribes.
The reason why the Jin Kingdom destroyed the Liao Dynasty but had no way to deal with the Mongols for the time being is simply because the Mongols came and went like the wind and were hidden in the Mobei grasslands, making it difficult to achieve mass annihilation.
Therefore, Wang Lin's strategy against the Mongols was to lure the enemy deep into the territory, then gather them together and annihilate them.
As for the bait... Although Wang Lin remained strangely silent, Yan Qing, who was standing next to him, noticed that the murderous aura emanating from the emperor at this moment was so thick and deep that it was far worse than the deep sky at night.
…
The main hall of Zhending Palace is called Taiji Hall.
From the entrance of Tai Chi Hall, the bright red carpet is laid all the way to the main entrance of the palace.
On both sides of the carpet, the tough Jin Yiwei and the brave Royal Forest Army defended each other, with swords and guns like a forest.
The red sun hung high in the sky, and the main entrance of the palace slowly opened.
Yellow leaves all over the city are fluttering in the wind.
The core figures of the envoys from various countries slowly entered the palace following the roll call of the court ladies, preparing to pay homage to the Emperor of Dayan.
The first one is of course the Xixia Mission.
As the Yan vassal, the head of the Xixia mission Zheng Yuanshui and the military general Li Meng kowtowed to the emperor at the entrance of the palace, then stepped into the palace respectfully, and went straight to the Taiji Hall under the guidance of the welcoming officials under Ma Kuo.
The female officer Shangguan is clear and beautiful, but she was a military general in the Huarui Women's Camp.
She stood there with her head held high and shouted loudly: "The Tibetan envoy, the Tibetan Prime Minister Luosi Wen came to the palace to pay an audience!"
The Tubo dignitary Luosi, who was called, bowed to accept the order, kowtowed at the door, and walked in with two of his subordinates.
Luo Wen is one of the largest powerful factions in Tubo. His mother is Han Chinese.
She is also the princess of the Zhao Song clan.
Therefore, Luo Wen is half Han, and his speech, behavior, and dress are extremely Chinese. At this moment, he is wearing a Han robe, shaking a folding fan in his hand, following behind the leading official with squinted eyes, and the corner of his eye keeps looking back and forth at the Jin Yiwei and Yu Linjun on both sides.
Patrolling.
"The envoy from Gaochang Kingdom is here to meet you!"
Ba Shu, the young prince of Gaochang Kingdom, is the youngest son of King Bilege of Gaochang Kingdom.
Ba Shu wore a Hu suit made of silk and took off the golden-crowned felt hat on his head as a sign of respect. He bowed to the palace to show his surrender, and then entered the palace and left.
"The envoy from the Kara Khanate is here to see you!"
"The Khotanese envoys are here to meet you!"
"The envoy from Kucha State is here to meet you!"
"Meet the Bohai State Envoy!"
"The envoys from the Kingdom of Korea are here to meet you!"
"The envoy from Dali Kingdom is here to meet you!"
…
Envoys from various countries entered one after another, and Hebule led two Mongolian guards with gloomy expressions. He waited for a long time and found out that the Yan State had deliberately placed their Mongolians in the last position.
For the proud Hebule, this is actually the greatest contempt.
The female officer Shangguan cast her cold eyes on Hebule, paused, and then calmly called out: "One of the eighteen Mongolian tribes, the Boerjijin tribe's envoy is here to see you!"
Hebule's face suddenly turned red and his breathing became heavy.
He claimed to represent Mongolia, but the one he was named was one of the eighteen Mongolian tribes!
He was reduced from a representative of various Mongolian tribes to a representative of the Borjin tribe, especially since the Borjin tribe was, to be honest, just a branch tribe that split from the Qiyan tribe, an inconspicuous small tribe!
