Chapter 1404: Alliance with Song Jiang
Afterwards, Li Jing found Tai Shici alone, and after a friendly meeting with him, he also had a deeper understanding of Tai Shici.
"General Tai Shici, are you willing to serve the Duke of Qin and the imperial court?" Li Jingzi asked solemnly.
Tai Shi Ci didn't want to think about it, and said decisively: "To serve the imperial court, the last general is naturally willing." ”
Chapter 1404: Alliance with Song Jiang
Li Jing shook his head when he heard this, and Tai Shi Ci also showed doubts, Li Jing said again: "Let's put it another way, General Tai Shi Ci, are you willing to serve the Duke of Qin, or are you willing to serve the imperial court?" ”
"Huh? Does it make a difference? ”
Tai Shi Ci frowned and said, in his heart, Duke Qin is the imperial court, and the imperial court is also Qin Hao, and there is no difference between the two.
"There is a difference." Li Jing said solemnly.
Serving Qin Hao and serving the imperial court are not much different on the surface, but they are very different in essence.
Serving Qin Hao is loyal to Qin Hao personally, and serving the imperial court is loyal to the Han Dynasty, and the two can be said to be far from each other.
Tai Shici also realized the meaning of Li Jing's words, he didn't have much sense of belonging to the Han Dynasty, otherwise he would not have abandoned Liu Xuan in the original history to vote for Sun Ce, and he revered Qin Hao even more as a battlefield hero, so after a little contemplation, he said: "The last general is willing to serve Qin Hao." ”
Li Jing couldn't help but smile when he heard this, and said with a smile: "In the future, everyone will be colleagues." ”
After completely subduing Tai Shici, with the support of Kong Rong and Tai Shici, Li Jing naturally had no resistance to the actions of the Beihai Navy.
While retraining the army, Li Jing selected the elite and asked them to change into the new equipment he had brought with him, and at the same time stripped the Beihai cavalry out and integrated it into the tiger camp that arrived with him.
In short, everything in Beihai County and the Northern Navy is developing in a good direction.
At the same time, Fu Nian, who was ordered to send Liang Shang, also met Song Jiang as he wished, but Liang Shan's attitude towards him seemed to be a little different from what he expected.
"Greetings to the messenger."
Speaking of greetings, there are rows of swords and guns available to welcome the messenger of Fu Nian.
Is this the next horse?
This thought flashed through Fu Nian's mind, and at the same time, he also wanted to understand why Song Jiang wanted to give himself a horse, it was nothing more than to send out the momentum first, and wanted to get more benefits in the future alliance.
It's a beautiful thought.
Fu Nian sneered in his heart, if he retreated this time, after the alliance between the two sides, Beihai's momentum would naturally be shorter than Liangshan's, but he would not let Song Jiang be satisfied.
Fu Nian's right foot lightly stepped on the earth, and immediately the internal qi around his body surged rapidly, and in an instant, it was woven into an internal qi gauze, and the grandmaster's momentum was immediately revealed.
"He, he turned out to be, Zong, Grandmaster Master?"
"How is this possible?"
"Hiss......"
Everyone in Liangshan couldn't help but take a breath of cool air, you must know that there is only one grandmaster in the entire Liangshan army, Lu Junyi, and as a result, the envoys sent by the Qin army are all grandmasters.
The spears and knives held high, and the queue that paved the way in this way, all looked at Fu Nian with awe, and involuntarily retreated to make way for them, while Fu Nian laughed and strode into the justice hall.
Fu Nian is a rare talent under Qin Hao who has both civil and military skills, Fu Nian was born in Confucianism, but he reached the realm of a grandmaster in his thirties, and he also participated in hundreds of meetings on behalf of Confucianism, so it is naturally impossible to be frightened by Song Jiang's little tricks.
In the Juyi Hall, Song Jiang and the leaders were a little embarrassed, and they wanted to use a dismount to frustrate the Qin envoy's spirit, but they didn't expect that the envoy sent by the Qin army was actually a master of the sect.
His family knows his own affairs, and the only master master in Liangshan is Lu Junyi, and as a result, Qin Jun casually shoots a messenger who is a grandmaster.
Could it be that the Qin army was so extravagant that even the grandmaster could only be an envoy?
This is of course impossible.
Fu Nian is just an exception, and a special person like him is only Fu Nian and Pei Ju in the Qin army.
When Song Jiang was thinking about how to deal with this Qin army's grandmaster envoy, he saw that Fu Nian had already stepped into the Juyi Hall quickly, and then took out the holy decree and shouted loudly: "The holy decree is here, and Song Jiang and Song Gongming are not coming to receive the decree quickly." ”
Song Jiang was taken aback, he only thought that Li Jing's envoy came to form an alliance, but he didn't expect that this envoy would still carry the holy decree, so he immediately ran down from the main seat, knelt on the ground and bowed: "Song Jiang is here." ”
Even Song Jiang, who was the boss, knelt down, and the other leaders of Liangshan naturally didn't dare to stand, so they all knelt down with Song Jiang to receive the order.
"Liangshan guarded Song Jiang too much, and the princes made great contributions to Dong, and repelled the traitor Huangchao several times, and now he is named Liang Hou, Donglai Taishou, and Zhendong General...... Chin this. ”
After listening to Fu Nian's reading, Song Jiang couldn't help but show surprise and excitement.
Since arriving in Zhao'an and returning to the imperial court, Song Jiang has fought bloodily for the imperial court, sacrificing tens of thousands of troops, and I don't know how much credit he has made, but so far his official position is only Liangshan Taishou, and there is a miscellaneous general.
You must know that Qingzhou does not have the county of Liangshan at all, and the so-called Liangshan County was all established by Song Jiang from scratch, and the imperial court has never given anything to Song Jiang.
It can be seen from this that the attitude of the Han court towards Song Jiang was so bad that he would say a good word when he used you, and kicked him away when he didn't use it.
When Dong Zhuo was in turmoil, in order to divide the princes, he gave Song Jiang a prince, but Song Jiang didn't dare to accept it at all.
But whoever accepts Dong Zhuo's separation, so far, except for Huang Chao, no one has a good end.
Song Jiang was born as a thief, and his reputation was not good, if he accepted Dong Zhuo's canonization, it would be no different from looking for death in his opinion, and Yuan Shao would definitely use this as an excuse to annex him.
Therefore, although Song Jiang is a prince, he is the lowest official among all the princes, and he is also the only prince who does not have a title all the way.
Now in order to win over Song Jiang, Qin Hao not only gave him the title of marquis, but also gave him a Donglai Taishou, and General Zhendong is a fourth-rank general, which is much higher than the previous miscellaneous general.
Let's put it this way, although Qin Hao's reward to Song Jiang this time cannot bring practical benefits, it gives Song Jiang great righteousness, and this is also something that everyone in Liangshan is extremely eager for.
Song Jiang forcibly endured the excitement in his heart, and said in a trembling voice: "Song Jiang leads the order." Then he received the decree from Fu Nian's hand.
With this canonization in the front, and then Fu Nian and Song Jiang's negotiations on the alliance naturally went extremely smoothly, and an alliance was directly reached between Beihai and Liangshan.
Under Fu Nian's struggle, Song Jiang even made a promise that if Yuan Shao and Huang Chao attacked at the same time, Liangshan would block Yuan Shao's way for Beihai, and Beihai would pay Liangshan 100,000 stones of grain and grass, 20,000 swords, and 1,000 sets of iron armor...... As the price of sending troops.
