900 Buyeo is willing to respect the Wei State as the lord and be willing to be a vassal state
The Buyeo Kingdom itself is relatively weak, and it has an alliance relationship with Gongsun Du, which is a more credible state.
Now that the Wei army occupies the territory of Gongsun Du and has inherited the foundation laid by Gongsun Du, if the rest of the people in Fuyu are willing to unite at this time, it will naturally be the best.
So Yu Ban found Guo Jin and pretended to discuss military affairs with Guo Jin to express his importance to Guo Jin.
Guo Jin knew that he would not interfere in Yu Ban's choice, but he was very interested in this kind of thing, so he put forward his own suggestions to Yu Ban from the perspective of a staff officer.
"Gao Guli is strong, Fuyu is weak, then it is undoubtedly more appropriate to unite the weak against the strong, Gongsun Du has dominated Liaodong for many years, the choice he made must have been well thought-out, although he was defeated, but he was not defeated by Gao Juli, which is enough to prove that his strategy is right.
Although Gongsun Du is an enemy and has died, he still has some ability to govern Liaodong, Liaodong has developed from a wild land to today, and it cannot be said that there is no credit for Gongsun Du, and we should inherit some of Gongsun Du's practices, rather than simply abandon them. ”
Guo Jin clearly and coherently stated the optimal solution in Yu Ban's heart, which immediately made Yu Ban very excited.
"Bo Yao is right, this is also what I think in my heart."
Yu Ban was very happy, feeling that the crown prince of the dynasty was worthy of being the son carefully educated by Guo Peng, and some of his suggestions were no longer simple sycophants, but began to be taken seriously.
On the third day after their discussion, the representatives of Buyeo State hurried and finally arrived in Xiangping before the arrival of the representatives of Goguryi, and met with Yu Ban.
Guo Jin felt interested, so he asked Yu Ban to let him participate together, Yu Ban nodded and agreed, and asked Guo Jin to pretend to be a waiter and serve outside the door.
Looking at the gold, jade, and various belongings brought by the representative of Goguryi, Yu Ban felt a little funny.
"Is the envoy here just to show General Ben that Buyeo is very rich? Nothing else needs to be said? ”
The envoy of Buyeo immediately shook his head.
"It's not like this, these are the king's instructions to the next, let the next bring it to General Yu, it is a meeting gift, I hope General Yu will accept it with a smile."
Yu Ban quietly looked at Guo Jin, and then smiled.
"I see, the greeting ceremony...... Then I'll take it, but what I don't understand is that I just won Liaodong here, and you came to give gifts, what does this mean? What's there to do? By the way, I heard that the wife of King Buyeo is the daughter of Gongsun Du? ”
The Buyeo envoy was immediately frightened and turned pale, and denied it again and again.
"Not a daughter, not a daughter! It's just a woman in the Gongsun family, it's not a big deal, it's not an important person, and the Gongsun family has long had nothing to do with it, it's ordinary, it's really not worth the general's concern! ”
Yu Ban smiled.
"I see, it's just an ordinary woman......"
"Yes, it's really ordinary, just a woman."
The Buyeo envoy wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.
"But you were obviously in alliance with Gongsun Du before, didn't you? This woman is supposed to be the character you use to deepen your relationship, right? ”
"That's true, but there's a reason for that, and it's not a very secret relationship."
The Buyeo envoy wiped his sweat and said: "A long time ago, Buyeo was a vassal state of the Han State, and a few decades ago, our ancestor King also went to Luoyang to meet the filial piety emperor of the Han State at that time, and the relationship with the Han State was very good.
It was only later that Gongsun Du occupied Liaodong and cut off transportation, so we could not go to the Central Plains through Gongsun Du, and there was no way to re-establish contact with the Han State, and we faced the threat of Goguryi, so we could only ally with Gongsun Du.
It's just that we have never forgotten that we are a vassal state of the Han State, and now although the Han State is gone, the Wei State is orthodox in the Central Plains, and Buyeo is willing to respect the Wei State as the main state and be willing to be a vassal state. ”
The Buyeo envoy bowed deeply to Yu Ban, Yu Ban pondered for a while, and helped the Buyeo envoy up.
"Your king has also been to Luoyang? I don't know. ”
"Yes, it was about seventy years ago, my country is recorded, at that time, it should be the filial piety emperor of the Han State who received our king, so my country has always been a vassal state of the Han State, not a vassal state of Gongsun Du, we are just helpless, so we were forced to join forces with Gongsun Du."
The envoy of Buyeo nodded again and again: "We have always respected the Central Plains, so we are willing to respect the Wei State as the lord and always be a vassal, and I also ask General Yu to report this matter to His Majesty the Son of Heaven of the Wei State, and say a few good words to His Majesty the Son of Heaven for us, and we will have a heavy reward." ”
"That's ......"
Yu Ban nodded again, and then asked slowly: "I will report this matter to Your Majesty, you don't have to worry, it's just that when you talk about it like this, it seems that the Buyeo Kingdom and the Goguryi Kingdom are still mortal enemies?" ”
"The blood sea is deep, we must not forget, we and Goguryi will never tolerate each other, so, in the future, I also hope to join forces with the general to crusade against Goguryi, the king of Goguryi has always been eyeing Liaodong, coveting the wealth of Liaodong, and has fought with Gongsun Du many times, with bad intentions!"
The Buyeo envoy began to give Goguryi eye medicine.
Yu Ban thought it was funny.
"But how did I hear that you also invaded Xuansu County?"
The Buyeo envoy's face fell.
"That was a few decades ago, for decades, Buyeo has never invaded Liaodong, when Gao Guli invaded Liaodong, Buyeo also cooperated with Gongsun Du to fight back against Goguryi many times, if His Majesty Wei Tianzi accepts Buyeo State, Buyeo State is also willing to work with His Majesty Wei Tianzi to crusade against Gogurye!"
"I see."
Yu Ban nodded slowly, then told the Buyeo envoy that he would give a reply, and then let the Buyeo envoy leave.
After the Buyeo envoy left, Yu Ban invited Guo Jin to the hall.
"Bo Yao, what do you think?"
"The attitude of the Buyeo people is still sincere, they are willing to respect me Wei as the suzerain, and they are willing to be my vassal state, so eager, they want to come to the country is not good, they are deeply threatened by Goguryi, and they are eager to win us over against Goguryi, this is a good opportunity for General Yu."
Guo Jin said happily.
"Yes, it's a good opportunity, it was our plan to win over Buyeo to fight against Goguryeo, and now Buyeo people are sending it to the door themselves, which is definitely good news."
Yu Ban nodded, and then sent someone to Luoyang to report to Guo Peng about the affairs of Fuyu Kingdom.
A few days later, the unexpectedly Goguryi people also came.
And the identity of the envoy is different.
The Buyeo King sent a simple envoy, but the King of Goguryi sent his own son, and letting his son be the envoy can also show that the Goguryi people attach great importance to this matter.
Previously, Yu Ban and Guo Jin discussed their views on dealing with the Goguryi people, and Guo Jin suggested that Yu Ban should not hide anything, and directly said that Fuyu State was willing to be a vassal state of Wei, and Yu Ban had already sent someone back to report to the emperor, and the emperor was likely to agree.
In this way, grasp the initiative and test the current thoughts of the Goguryi people.
Let's see if it's better to send troops to exterminate Goguryi immediately, or to slow it down.
At present, Liaodong has just been pacified, and all parts of the country are still recovering, and the results of the battle have not been fully consolidated.
At this moment, if Gao Guli does not know whether he is alive or dead, it will not be a good thing for the Wei army.
Stabilize Gao Guli, and not let Gao Guli find some signs and have the heart to enter the prison.
At least one to two months, after Liaodong has basically settled down, and after Tai Shici's side has completely occupied the land of Sanhan and Haoqian and cut off Goguryi's arms, he can send troops to attack Goguryi.
