Chapter 642: Negotiations
"What small country dares to be the enemy of my Heavenly Empire, Brother Wentai, it's time to show the heavenly might of my Heavenly Empire, destroy them, and then raise troops to attack this so-called Funan Kingdom, and turn the territory of the Funan Kingdom into Funan County."
After Liu Zheng learned about these contents, he did not have a trace of fear for this so-called Funan Kingdom, although this Funan Kingdom may be a big country in Southeast Asia, but in terms of the whole of Asia, the Han Dynasty is the real Heavenly Empire.
All countries should be dominated by the Celestial Empire.
Even if not, Liu Zheng wants to make them vassal states, and Liu Zheng's idea is not to make them vassal states, because vassal states have the possibility of independence at any time, Liu Zheng's idea is to directly make these small countries submit and become a county of the Han Dynasty.
For Liu Zheng, these things were not so urgent. He wants to fight the whole Han world again, and then think about these small border countries after reunification.
What I didn't expect was that these small border countries would actually come to make trouble at this time. This had to make Liu Zheng reconsider these things.
Since he and the Han court are temporarily suspended, and there are no other wars around, then he can also free up his hands and clean up these small border countries first, anyway. Cleaning up these small border countries can also bring Liu Zheng a certain amount of resource support, whether it is in terms of troops or food and other resources, it can expand Liu Zheng's influence.
After Sun Jian understood what Liu Zheng meant, he nodded and didn't say anything, anyway, he didn't have the slightest affection for these aliens.
Especially in the past few years of guarding Linyi County, he is even more annoyed with these alien races in Linyi County, and now that the remnants of Linyi County have returned, he also wants to defeat these remnants in one fell swoop and once and for all.
"My lord, these enemy troops of Funan are now scattered around Linyi County, and there are 50,000 people, led by a person named General Fan Man. If our army wants to defeat him, it must defeat this General Fan Man. ”
"General Fan Man, if I'm not mistaken, the prince who escaped from the remnants of Lin Yiguo before is also surnamed Fan, it seems that his name is Fan Yi, maybe there is something to do between them?"
Liu Zheng didn't think that these people from Funan had anything to do with the remnants of Linyi State, but after hearing the general's surname Fan, he also thought of the previous time, when he destroyed Linyi State, the king of this country was also surnamed Fan, and the fleeing prince may have fled to Funan, and got on the line with the people of Funan, and wanted to use the people of Funan to restore the country for himself.
After all, when Liu Zheng occupied Linyi County, he didn't find much money in the palace of Linyi County, and a large amount of treasures accumulated by Linyi County were swept away by the prince. With some remnants and money, it was indeed easy for him to persuade the people of Funan to restore the country for himself.
"I didn't bring many soldiers and horses over, don't act rashly for the time being, first send someone to the other party's camp to negotiate, find out the news, wait for half a month, Zhou Cang will lead 50,000 troops to the south in Jiaozhou, and then fight these people to the death and completely defeat them."
After Liu Zheng learned some about the situation, he temporarily appeased Sun Jian.
Liu Zheng wanted to send someone to negotiate in front of the tent of the Funan army, but this time he came here without bringing his own advisers.
Therefore, the person sent to negotiate can only let Sun Jian send someone over.
Fortunately, when Sun Jian was guarding Linyi County, he also recruited a lot of talents here. Send out a random person with some culture. It is enough to act as an emissary to negotiate.
However, Liu Zheng didn't intend to negotiate casually, but instead glanced at Zhou Yu and Sun Ce behind him.
The two of them have been following Liu Zheng's side for a while now, and basically rarely go directly to the battlefield to meet the enemy, this time, in the face of these people from Funanguo, Liu Zheng intends to let them start to experience these things.
In this negotiation, Liu Zheng planned to order them to be supplements, and follow the envoys sent by Sun Jian to meet the army of Funan to see what these people in Funan wanted to do.
The envoy sent by Sun Jian to negotiate in the past was called Pan Shuai, the character Zicong, who was originally a county order of Linyi County, and was regarded as a literati who was more loyal to the Han Dynasty.
Sun Jian's subordinates are mostly military generals, such as Cheng Pu, Huang Gai, Han Dang and others, and there are few literati, so literati like Pan Shuai seem to pay more attention.
After having Liu Zheng's order, Pan Shuai did not shirk, and was ecstatic to accept Liu Zheng's order, and then led Zhou Yu and Sun Ce, two young generals, to send an envoy to the army of Funanguo.
Xianglin County.
This place has been partially occupied by the army of Funan, although the city is still under the control of Sun Jian, there is no longer a population outside the city, and it is all the army of Funan.
The territory of Funan is not large, in fact, at best, it is the geographical location of a state in the Han Dynasty, and the founding time of Funan is not long, speaking of which, compared with the Han Dynasty, it is really a little young.
Unlike the Han Dynasty, the Funan Kingdom was still a matriarchal society a hundred years ago, and then a person called Mixed Fill ruled here, and after marrying the Queen of Liuye here, it gradually transformed into a male-dominated kingdom.
Up to now, it is the third generation, and the king of the third generation is called the mixed plate.
The entire Funan Kingdom is very large in Southeast Asia, occupying many surrounding tribes, and all the populations are also quite large, and the entire kingdom can muster together more than 100,000 troops, but after all, they are still a relatively backward society, even if there are enough troops, in fact, the combat power is not high, because the social development has not reached a sufficient level.
Weapons manufacturing is very backward, although there are people, but there are not enough weapons, it is also very embarrassing, but obviously, they are not clear about the strength of the Han Dynasty, blindly Yelang is arrogant, thinking that with the advantage of more people, they can defeat the Han Dynasty.
When Pan Shuai came to the military camp of Funanguo, he had already sent someone to hand over the post, obviously these people from Funanguo couldn't read Chinese characters, but fortunately, many of these people were the remnants of the previous Lin Yi Kingdom, and these remnants could still understand it.
So with them as intermediaries, Pan Shuai took Zhou Yu and Sun Ce into the camp and met the so-called General Fan Man.
A man who looks to be in his thirties, with some dark skin, may be due to the region, and his clothes are not as elegant as the big man, and he has a bit of a barbarian atmosphere.
However, the few people standing beside him were dressed similarly to the Han side, and they thought that these people were the remnants of Lin Yiguo before.
