All the people of the Kun Yu Kingdom showed a sarcastic smile on their faces, but they did not pierce it, and the messenger stood in the middle with a stubborn head, accepting the baptism of ridicule from all directions.
Several people read the so-called cooperation letter, and then Ninghui said:
"Since Your Majesty intends to cooperate with our Kunyu Kingdom, we are also very happy, let us discuss and discuss before replying."
The messenger breathed a sigh of relief, said a few words of promise, and turned to leave.
In fact, before everyone set off, Ru Yuan, Dun, Ru Liang and others had already discussed the project to "cooperate" with Yin Pingguo, and they only needed to take it out.
Ningxu and Ninghui discussed with everyone when it was appropriate to take it out, and Lei Heng interjected:
"We should move on."
Everyone looked at him in bewilderment.
One of the generals said:
"If you go any further, you'll really be in the next city."
Lei Heng smiled:
"It's to go to the next city, the army is pressing at the gate of the city, forcing them to show sincerity to cooperate with us, and when the time comes, we can sit on the ground and raise the price."
Ningxu and Ninghui's eyes suddenly glowed with gold.
Another general said:
"Isn't that going to be too tight? Will it backfire? ”
Lei Heng smiled even brighter:
"If it was the Wei State, I really wouldn't dare to press it like this, but if it was the Yin Ping Kingdom, it didn't matter, they didn't dare to jump with us, because they were a weak country, and they didn't have the confidence to jump!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone, including Lei Heng, was full of emotion, the former Kunyu Kingdom, just like the current Yinping Kingdom, was sandwiched between several big countries, trying to survive in the cracks, and there was also no confidence to jump, no matter which country, they all had to stutter, for fear that one day the big country would not be in good shape and destroy them, but now, not to mention the small Yinping Kingdom, that is, the Wei State and the Liang State, they also have the confidence to call the board.
One with a relatively white face, but the most burly of the generals, shook his body in the chair and straightened his back:
"It's good, we can also straighten our backs and talk to those who don't like us, and we don't have to be afraid of shrinking like a turtle."
Everyone looked at each other and laughed, laughing happily and laughing.
According to Lei Heng's plan, the army of Kun Yuguo continued to move forward, and after Yang Ding in the capital learned of this, he panicked and hurriedly sent someone to ask the envoy, but the envoy did not understand what was going on.
That Yang Ding and the messenger passed the news back and forth, this side of the Yan Yu country continued to move forward leisurely, according to Lei Heng's words, we had to leave some time for them to talk to each other, and wait outside the city gate, it was better for everyone to look at the scenery, scatter their hearts, and the happy Ningxu and Ninghui gave him a thumbs up at the same time.
Although Lei Heng married Ningyang, because of such a black history, the court was not respected because he became a concubine, but let more people point fingers behind his back, even if it was the Ning clan, and his dealings with him were also superficial, Ningyang defended him everywhere, and he suffered a lot of grievances, which made him feel very uncomfortable.
However, this expedition, there is a chance to get along with Ningxu and Ninghui and enhance mutual understanding, but also because of his strategy, which is frequently recognized by the two and all the soldiers.
The envoy also came to see them a few times, but Ninghui always prevaricated him on the grounds that he had not yet discussed, and the envoy was angry, on the one hand, the emperor was jumping and jumping to find him to explain, and on the other hand, Kun Yuguo's attitude was unclear, sandwiching him in the middle, left and right were angry, and left and right were not people.
When the army of Kun Yuguo arrived at the gate of the next city, the soldiers defending the city were all frightened, and the three cities were broken in ten days. Some of the soldiers secretly picked at the city walls to determine whether their city was made of stone and brick or mud.
The messenger did not leave this city, and at this time the army surrounded the city gate, and the messenger hurriedly circled around the house, and the noise of the people running for their lives out of the city kept coming from the window, and the noise made his heart like a cat's claw.
A servant hurriedly ran in and handed him a letter, and the messenger opened it to see that it was Kun Yuguo who asked him to reminisce about the past, and at this time, the envoy finally understood the purpose of Kun Yuguo.
The messenger immediately became angry, and threw the letter out in a ball:
"Reminiscence?! Tell your uncle's old! ”
However, the anger is the anger, the envoy does not dare not really go, the confidence and courage of the subjects are all given by the state, the country is strong, and the subjects are hard-waisted; The country is weak, no matter how strong the individual is, it still has to shrink to the outside world.
Therefore, although the envoy was very angry at Kun Yuguo's behavior, he had no choice but that Yin Pingguo was too weak to support his waist, so he had to adjust his mood and hurriedly went out of the city to see the prince of Kun Yuguo.
This time, Ninghui showed him a seat and asked him to sit down and talk, but this made the envoy even more uneasy.
Ningxu took out the cooperation project that had been discussed a long time ago and handed it to the messenger:
"It's a collaboration that we've discussed."
When the envoy saw the thick letter of cooperation, he couldn't help frowning, this was obviously not the result of the discussion in the past few days, that is to say, it had been written before the expedition.
The messenger suppressed the fire in his heart, and read the cooperation letter from the hands of the guards, page by page, very carefully, Ningxu They were not in a hurry, he looked at him, they should drink water, they should eat, and they wanted to nap, as if the messenger did not exist.
This letter of cooperation, the more the envoy reads it, the more cold sweat breaks out, although it is not to squeeze them clean Yin Pingguo, but it is really more than paying tribute to Liang State, and there is only one thing that is gratifying, that is, this cooperation clause is limited to ten years, and after ten years, new terms will be signed.
However, the envoy didn't think that he would be able to sign out anything after ten years, unless the Yin Ping Kingdom could be strong enough to not be afraid of the Kunyu Kingdom in ten years, but, think about how it was possible, ten years is not enough for a person to grow into an adult, let alone develop a country.
The messenger swallowed and said:
"Please allow me to go back and communicate with Your Majesty."
Ninghui said loftyly:
"Feel free, we don't care about waiting a few more days."
When the envoy returned to the city, he hurriedly wrote a letter to Yang Ding, reported the situation, and sent someone to deliver the letter, only to find that Kun Yuguo really didn't care about waiting a few more days, they besieged the city to death, and the rest of the people were not allowed to enter or leave except for the people who came and went to deliver the letter.
The messenger was so angry that his lungs ached.
When Yang Ding got the news from the messenger, his face was gloomy, and he nestled in his chair for a long time without speaking.
A general proposed to send troops to the rescue, but Yang Ding gave him a big white eye, and then threw him into a small black room and locked up.
Yang Ding didn't want to agree to these cooperation projects, but did he dare to disagree? Kun Yuguo has already made his attitude clear, and if he dares to disagree, he will attack another city, and if he talks about cooperation after being attacked again, I am afraid it will be even more harsh than now.
Some ministers also put forward similar views, and everyone discussed and discussed, and finally agreed that those who did not cut a penny would accept the cooperation items proposed by Kun Yuguo in full.
After the letter was sent away, Yang Ding regretted that he had provoked Wu Xingguo in the first place, what does it mean to steal chickens and not lose rice, he is not eroded rice now, but a bag of rice! But is regret useful? Obviously useless.
After the messenger got the reply, Yang Ding didn't give him a problem, which made him breathe a sigh of relief, otherwise, he really planned to run away or commit suicide.
After signing a cooperation treaty with Ninghui, the Kunyu army withdrew from outside the city, but they did not return the same way, but instead went diagonally to the direction of Wuxingguo.
And the messenger wept with all his heart:
What does it mean that it is easy to invite God and difficult to send God? Yin Pingguo obviously can't afford to provoke anyone, and he still has to provoke it, why is he so confused! Who came up with this idea in the first place?
Ningxu and Ninghui didn't care about Yang Ding's pins and needles on the dragon chair, and continued to walk in the direction of Wuxingguo, although they didn't enter the city, didn't enter the villages and towns, and only camped in the wilderness, but where they passed, all the officials and soldiers were on guard, and the people were very curious about them, but even if they were curious, they couldn't resist the fear of the enemy in their hearts, they just looked at them from a distance and never approached.
Let's look at Ning Cheng and Huang Shen.
They were well defended on the border between Wuxingguo and Liang, and waited for Liang to come.
Liang Guo's general this time was Xiao Deze, and his father Xiao Hong was Xiao Yan's younger brother.
In the "Battle of Zhongli" in 507 (the sixth year of the Southern Liang Tianjian and the fourth year of the Northern Wei Dynasty), Xiao Hong escaped from the battle, resulting in the collapse of the 100,000 army of the Southern Liang.
That's not all, Xiao Hong also harbored murderers, fornicated with Xiao Yan's daughter, and even had a plan to murder Xiao Yan, wait, just like that, Xiao Yan still puts him in an important official position.
Even if Xiao Hong has no political ambitions, such a person is embarrassed to be reused, is Xiao Yan really not able to use people? Or did he suppress officials with foreign surnames, whether civilian or military?
Ahem, let's not talk about Nanliang, let's talk about Xiao Deze.
Xiao De is the same as his father Xiao Hong, beautiful, "Southern History" called Xiao Hong "Xiao Niang", you can imagine how handsome he is.
Xiao De was Xiao Yan's adopted son before, and after the birth of the prince Xiao Tong, Xiao De returned to his own sect, but, perhaps because he was raised as a prince before, so, when he fell to the altar, he didn't feel good in his heart.
After staying for a year and fleeing back to Southern Liang, Xiao Yan not only did not blame him, but appointed him as the general of the conquest.
Xiao De is beautiful and beautiful, but he behaves incorrectly and has a cruel and evil temperament.
At that time, there was Xiao Deze in Dongfu City, Dong Xian Dong Shizi, the son of Dong Dangmen in Chaogou, and Xiahou Hong, the eldest son of Xiahou Kui on the south bank.
