Chapter 1133: The Middleman
That Tang Zhangwei's army had an absolute advantage, and they had the support of those Meng Tiantian's subordinates from the Rui Beast Islands, and they attacked very hard
That Yang Mengmeng's army was not only besieged, but they were also besieged by that Tang Zhangwei. The men and horses under Tang Zhangwei's command are very powerful, these people have a sufficient supply of food, compared to them, that Yang Mengmeng's subordinates are very pitiful.
That Meng Tiantian took that subordinate, and they ate a meal of mutton steamed buns, which made that Meng Tiantian's subordinates eat with their mouths full of oil.
On the contrary, those Yang Mengmeng's subordinates who were surrounded by Tang Zhangwei and them, they were not comfortable, these people did not have enough food, and these people were very pitiful. These people, because that Meng Tiantian led people to eat and drink in front of them, these people felt even more uncomfortable, after all, they also wanted to eat well, but the amount of food in that Rui Beast Islands was very small.
However, that Yang Mengmeng was not a fool, he asked his subordinates to exchange the coral that was fished from the bottom of the sea, as well as all kinds of pearls and other treasures, with Tang Zhangwei and his men, as well as Meng Yangtang, the natives of the Rui Beast Islands.
Of course, that She Bingbing would not make a deal with Yang Mengmeng and others. However, the merchants of the Rui Beast Islands, and some people who are for profit, or who Tang Zhangwei acquiesce, they can do business with that Yang Mengmeng, because that Tang Zhangwei feels that he can't eliminate all the opponents in one battle, so that Tang Zhangwei decides to slowly set up his own enemy through someone he trusts, and that Yang Mengmeng is one of his traps.
Yang Mengmeng and Tang Zhaozong's troops, many of them were trapped by Tang Zhangwei's subordinates in that Rui Beast Island, they couldn't advance or retreat, these people were a dish of that Tang Zhangwei.
Although Tang Zhaozong can still eat big fish and meat, his subordinates have already begun to drink porridge and eat dry cakes.
Here, Yang Mengmeng and many of Tang Zhaozong's subordinates traded with that Meng Tiantian because of that grain.
Meng Tiantian's troops, they used the cauldron to cook beef and mutton, and then ate it with rice, and at the same time they sold the flour they had received to Yang Mengmeng's subordinates who were hungry and their legs were trembling and their eyes were glowing green.
Those Yang Mengmeng's men, they waited in the rain for their quartermaster to give them a ball of flour the size of an egg, which was their meal for the day.
Opposite them, the white invincible subordinate was eating barbecue and drinking for too long, and that Yang Mengmeng himself was just a dough cake and dried plum to accompany the meal.
That Yang Mengmeng's little life was very aggrieved, but they still had to fight with that Tang Zhangwei, and they just refused to surrender.
Tang Zhaozong said to Empress He: "Now, the nobles of the Rui Beast Islands, they all hope that I will still insist on this Vermilion Bird Island, work with them, and work with that Tang Zhangwei and them, but I don't think I can only stand on my own position like this and continue to fight against that Tang Zhangwei." Think about it, on this Suzaku Island, as well as on other islands of the Rui Beast Islands, we are short of food, and at the same time, that Tang Zhangwei and they still have fresh water, once they really launch a full-scale attack, and not like now, it will only consume our strength, we will not be able to stop it. β
Empress He said, "What you say makes sense, but what should we do? Now, we just want to negotiate with Tang Zhangwei, and we can't find a reliable negotiator like Fei Xuechun. β
Tang Zhaozong smiled and said, "As long as we have the idea of peace talks, we can always find someone to deliver the news for us." β
Of course, those people under Tang Zhangwei are very shrewd, and they know that Tang Zhangwei just wants to have a relaxation with Tang Zhaozong, but both sides are a little unable to erase their faces.
When Tang Zhangwei attacked hard, that Tang Zhao Sect sent someone to test it, which was a great joy for that Tang Zhangwei's subordinates.
After all, for them, this Tang Zhaozong has always been a heart disease, and now that Tang Zhangwei can get rid of this Tang Zhangwei's heart disease, this is a great joy.
That powerful Bai Wushu knew that if anyone gave this matter to that Tang Zhangwei, that Tang Zhangwei would have to reuse him, but no one could pass the needle on both sides of that Tang Zhangwei and Tang Zhaozong, after all, there was really a lack of people who could be trusted on both sides of Tang Zhangwei and Tang Zhaozong. Therefore, although Tang Zhaozong and Empress He remember to focus, there is no one who can do all the things in Tang Zhangwei's heart like Fei Xuechun.
However, that Bai Wushu quickly saw that Tang Zhangwei's thoughts, and he introduced that Fei Xuechun to that Vermilion Island.
At first, that Bai Cunxiao was taken aback, and he asked Bai Wushu: "What are you doing when you introduced that Fei Xuechun to our Vermilion Bird Island?" β
Bai Wushu said: "Wasn't that Fei Xuechun the person Tang Zhangwei believed in the most before?" β
Bai Cunxiao said: "It is precisely because that Tang Zhangwei used to trust that Fei Xuechun so much, so we can't bring that woman in now, you must know that Tang Zhangwei is very annoyed with this woman now, if you turn your face with General Tang Zhangwei because of this woman, don't expect anyone to save you." β
Bai Wudi said: "As long as we complete the task given to us by General Tang Zhangwei, we don't need to think too much." β
Bai Cunxiao said: "You are too naΓ―ve, do you think that as long as we have the ability, we will do it?" If Tang Zhangwei doesn't like us, all of us will be in danger, you must know that Tang Zhangwei can control the Tang Dynasty, play with those Tang Zhaozong's subordinates, and control so many big businessmen. He must have his own set of methods, since you want Fei Xuechun, who he obviously feels a little disgusted with now, to do things for him, then even if you get Tang Zhaozong and them together, you will not get any reward for completing this task. β
Bai Wushu said: "Then I have to do something, I am not willing to let the opportunity slip out of my hands in vain." β
Bai Cunxiao said: "I know what you think, but I always have to try, I don't try, how do I know that my method is wrong, I must complete this matter for that Tang Zhangwei." β
In fact, as soon as that Fei Xuechun arrived at that Suzaku Island, he brought some new weapons to that Tang Zhangwei, and these weapons were of good quality, and they were just right to deal with that Yang Mengmeng's rebels.
After Fei Xuechun arrived on Vermilion Island, he immediately took over part of the military supply business of She Bingbing.
That She Bingbing hated that Fisher to death, but they seemed to be very affectionate to each other together. That She Bingbing said to Fei Xuechun: "Thank you, sister, sister has helped me share a lot, she is really my good sister." β
Fei Xuechun said: "You don't blame me for stealing a lot of your business, right?"
She Bingbing said, "How come? I'm grateful you're too late! You must know that we all serve that Tang Zhangwei, and our small interests are not all meaningful when General Tang Zhangwei's march goes smoothly? β
Fei Xuechun said: "Then I will thank my sister." β
After Tang Zhangwei learned that Fei Xuechun was coming, he immediately sent someone to invite Fei Xuechun, and Tang Zhangwei asked Fei Xuechun to try to contact that Empress He and Tang Zhaozong to see if he could make Yang Mengmeng's subordinates surrender to him.
He knew that Fei Xuechun could act as a bridge between them, after all, for that Fei Xuechun, she made so much money from that Tang Zhangwei, she had to make some contributions, and that Fei Xuechun took over part of She Bingbing's business.
At the same time, that Meng Tiantian also had to give up a lot of business to that Fei Xuechun.
That Meng Tiantian knew that Fei Xuechun was a big man, and that Meng Tiantian knew that he had to give that Fei Xuechun face.
Fei Xuechun asked his subordinates to cook the beef and mutton, and then sold them together. Later, Fei Xuechun also asked his subordinates to add chicken, duck, fish, and various other snacks, and this guy even added various delicious foods such as wine.
Some of the prodigal sons on the Rui Beast Islands wanted to beat the autumn wind under Fei Xuechun's men, but these people all kicked the iron plate without exception.
However, they continued to follow one after the other, and none of them were finished. In fact, those people really have no money, otherwise they would definitely not be so rampant.
After all, these people in the Rui Beast Islands seemed to be really admirable for the beef, mutton, and chicken, as well as all kinds of appetizers.
When Fei Xuechun saw this, she ordered her subordinates to give these people a little food, and then collected them as household items.
Those floating wolf children, seeing that they had food, drink, and money for the head of Fei Xuechun, they happily joined Fei Xuechun's team.
As for that Yang Mengmeng, he knew that after that Tang Zhaozong secretly negotiated with Tang Zhangwei, he was very worried.
Yang Mengmeng knew that Queen He was likely to betray his interests, but he had no way to counteract.
That Yang Mengmeng spent day after day in worry, but the things he was worried about did not happen, on the contrary, when Tang Zhangwei and Tang Zhaozong reached a compromise, they also received a lot of food.
Because, that Tang Zhangwei knew that if his troops were just a strong pressure, then Tang Zhaozong and his subordinates would only resist desperately, and at that time, the nobles of the Rui Beast Islands would still need to be exterminated by themselves.
Therefore, that Tang Zhangwei decided to give a little benefit to that Tang Zhaozong's subordinates, so that the people of the Rui Beast Islands and that Tang Zhaozong's subordinates were suspicious of each other, and at that time, it was easy to start, and Tang Zhangwei knew that surrendering without a fight was the best means.
Therefore, Tang Zhangwei has always maintained the superior strength of Yang Mengmeng, and when that Tang Zhaozong proposed to negotiate because his subordinates were unable to resist Tang Zhangwei's army, that Tang Zhangwei immediately resumed the grain trade.
Moreover, after seeing that those Yang Mengmeng's subordinates were dying of hunger because of the lack of various hard currencies, that Tang Zhangwei also took the initiative to ask Fei Xuechun to provide a large amount of food, and the money was guaranteed by Tang Zhaozong and Yang Mengmeng, and it will be given later.
Yang Mengmeng felt a little incredulous, like the conditions proposed by Fei Xuechun, which made that Yang Mengmeng feel unbelievable.
In fact, that Yang Mengmeng knew that if he continued like that, his troops would almost starve to death.
Therefore, Yang Mengmeng knew that Fei Xuechun might have other ideas, but he could only accept that Fei Xuechun's conditions.
Yang Mengmeng agreed to help Fei Xuechun do things, so that Fei Xuechun could continue to supply them with military rations.
Yang Mengmeng didn't know what that Fei Xuechun wanted to do with such a powerful military force as himself, but he soon knew.
Sure enough, that Tang Zhangwei used all kinds of means to put pressure on Tang Zhaozong, so that Tang Zhaozong would hand over his personal guards and other weapons.
However, Tang Zhaozong and Tang Zhangwei bargained, and in the end Tang Zhangwei agreed to let Tang Zhaozong maintain a Jin Wuwei of less than 100 people.
Those nobles of the Rui Beast Islands heard the news of the peace talks between Tang Zhaozong and Tang Zhangwei, and they came over to meet Tang Zhaozong one after another, and these people tried to persuade that Tang Zhaozong to continue to oppose Tang Zhangwei.
Tang Zhaozong agreed to all of those people's requests, and that Tang Zhaozong also took out the jewelry and other wealth he had collected and handed them over to those people.
When Empress He saw Tang Zhaozong doing this, she asked strangely: "Since the emperor wants to turn against these people, why do you want to appease them like this?" β
Tang Zhaozong said: "It is precisely because I intend to do this, I have to appease those people on the Rui Beast Islands, if they guess my thoughts, then I am not dangerous?" β
It turned out that the reason why Tang Zhangwei first gave Tang Zhaozong's subordinates gruel and then sent a large amount of flour and other dry food was to let Tang Zhaozong and Yang Mengmeng's subordinates eat dogs.
If, that Yang Mengmeng's subordinates and Tang Zhaozong's subordinates starved to death too much, or were dying, they would not be able to do this for themselves.
It's just that when that Tang Zhaozong saw that the nobles of the Rui Beast Islands kept visiting, he was afraid that his secret agreement with Tang Zhangwei would be known to them, so Tang Zhaozong was willing to spend a lot of money to buy these people and let them dispel their concerns.
However, those people of the Rui Beast Islands are not fools, when Yang Mengmeng's troops, their abnormal behavior was seen by those people of the Rui Beast Islands, they immediately sent people to mobilize their own troops.
However, these nobles of the Rui Beast Islands, their every move was reported to Tang Zhangwei by that Meng Yangtang and other nobles.
Tang Zhangwei felt amused when he saw that the nobles of the Rui Beast Islands, who were afraid of Tang Zhaozong and Yang Mengmeng, but did not dare to stimulate them too much.
Tang Zhangwei ordered that Fei Xuechun and Yang Mengmeng to reach an agreement, so that they could immediately attack the people of the Rui Beast Islands, and after Fei Xuechun received the order, he immediately got in touch with Yang Mengmeng.
