Chapter 129: The court is corrected

A month ago, after the army that crossed the sea to conquer Gaogao returned safely to Dongnae County, Su Shang, who had money in his bag and grain in the pot, was addicted to a large amount of money for the first time, and not only happily fulfilled the reward he promised when he was in Goguryeo, but also took out a huge amount of money from the harvest to reward the meritorious personnel since the establishment of the Alliance!

In the past month, Donglai City has become a little more prosperous and lively, and the merchants and vendors are even more smiling, they have earned more money this month than the previous two months combined!

Yesterday at noon, the allied army once again ushered in a great event, the court official Yu Shiji and his party arrived in Donglai City, ready to discuss with Su Shang the return of the allied army to the court.

"Brother Ru Hao, what are the court's requirements?"

In the tent of the garrison battalion, Su Shang sat on the Taishi chair with a tired face, and asked Du Ruhui about the negotiation with Yu Shiji and others today.

Yesterday, he personally led the backbone members of the League to the outside of the city, and after welcoming Yu Shiji and his party into the city very warmly, he arranged for them to stay and rest in the Zuixiang Building in the city, and personally entertained them in the Zuixiang Building, and then handed over everything to Du Ruhui and Wei Yunqi!

Today's negotiations were also presided over by Du Ruhui, and Su Shang did not participate. However, he didn't have a leisurely time today, he was a tour guide for a day, and personally led the unexpectedly arrived Yue King Yang Tong to visit Donglai City for a day!

"They didn't ask for much at first, they initially proposed that the court send generals to absorb the allied army, but then they agreed to adapt it ourselves."

Du Ruhui replied with a smile, he also seemed a little tired at this time, he had negotiated with Yu Shiji and others for a long time today, and the battle of wits and courage was not easier than Su Shang.

Su Shang smiled slightly after hearing this, "It's so easy to speak, there must be conditions, right?" ”

"That's right! They demanded that we reduce the number of the Allied army, which is 12,000 people in the camp of the Lae garrison in the Middle East, 8,000 people in the camp of the Dengzhou Navy Army, and no more than 15 large warships of more than 1,000 stones! ”

Su Shang thought about it and said with a smile: "This can be promised to them!" It seems that the court is still very clear about the basic situation of Donglai County, if there is no foreign input, Donglai County can raise 20,000 soldiers at most! ”

Du Ruhui also felt that this article could be agreed, but he had not agreed during the daytime negotiations, and he was still a little puzzled about how to arrange the extra soldiers, "Marshal, how to arrange the extra soldiers?" ”

"I'm going to secretly arrange them to Gaomi County and Beihai County, these two counties are close to our Donglai County, and secretly take them down, which can greatly increase the area of activity of our alliance forces and expand the living space of the alliance forces! Now it's time to secretly send them over from the sea under the pretext of disarmament! ”

Du Ruhui frowned a little, "In this negotiation, the court has one condition, that is, the scope of activities of our alliance army cannot exceed Donglai County!" ”

"It's okay! As long as we don't hit the flag of our allies. When Wang Bo's bandit army was rampant before, these two counties were also ravaged, they no longer had many court garrisons, and the county was also full of bandits, so we just added it in the name of the rebels. ”

Su Shang paused, stood up and walked to the sand table map, and pointed to the location of Taiyuan on the sand table map, "This time Li Yuan was sealed as Taiyuan town guard, according to the information I received, he had already taken control of the Taiyuan town guard army ten days ago, and was preparing to clear out the rebels in the Hejin area, in my estimation, he will definitely take this operation as an opportunity to completely control this army." ”

After speaking, Su Shang sighed, "The gate lord families in the territory of the Great Sui are already in action, and if we don't speed up the development of such a cold army as our alliance, we will soon fall behind them!" ”

Du Ruhui nodded, he also understood that the influence of the gate valve family was too great, the conditions were too good, and if the allies wanted to compete with them on the same stage, they had to develop and grow one step ahead of them!

"Marshal, in this negotiation, the court also put forward two demands! First, send troops to help the court clear the rebels, and second, I hope that the marshal will go to the eastern capital Luoyang to meet the saint within half a year! ”

Su Shang shook his head, "I can't agree to the second request, the current Luoyang City, the water is too deep, I don't want to go!" But time to relax, if it is within three years, you can still agree! As for the first request, you can grant them! However, our army must act independently, and at the same time do not accept the command of the court generals! Only cooperation, not merger! ”

After speaking, Su Shang looked at Du Ruhan and asked with a smile, "How is the court going to reward us?"

"The court is ready to make the marshal the Marquis of Donglai, the general of the town army of the allied army of Donglai County, responsible for the garrison camp of Donglai City, and the camp of the Dengzhou Navy Army!"

Su Shang laughed, "It seems that the Holy Lord is quite generous this time!" Although there is nothing substantial, the official title is a real reward! ”

This is something that Su Shang has dreamed of for a long time, although he does not care about the official position of the court, he needs this court status. With this court status, he is not a rebel, and the allies can operate openly!

Originally, he planned to design and seek the reputation of the court when the Turkic soldiers trapped Yang Guang, but he didn't expect that the unexpected surprise came to him inadvertently!

After talking about the negotiation, Su Shang remembered a strange thing again, Yang Tong, the king of Yue.

He accompanied him to Donglai County, but did not participate in the negotiations, and invited Su Shang as a guide early this morning to visit Donglai City together. This made Su Shang feel very strange.

"Brother Ru Hui, what do you think is the purpose of Yang Tong, the king of Yue, coming to Donglai County?"

"It's hard to say!"

Du Ruhui was a little cautious, thought for a while, and then said: "I think there are two possibilities, first, if you want to completely win over the marshal, now the actual military power of the court is in the hands of the gate valve family, and the marshal's allies are all from a poor family, and they are mortal enemies with the gate valve family, if they can completely win over the marshal, the court can let the marshal and the family fight against the family gate valve, and they can sit on the fisherman's advantage!"

"Second, win over the wealthy families in Donglai City, and restrict the alliance from continuing to grow and expand! He even looked for an agent among the allies to prepare for the complete integration of the allies in the future! ”

Du Ruhui stopped after speaking, Su Shang didn't speak again, the hero saw the same thing, what Du Ruhui was worried about was exactly what Su Shang thought!

……

Three days later, news spread throughout the streets and alleys of Donglai County that the self-defense army alliance established by the people of Donglai County was officially incorporated by the court and became the regular army of the court stationed in Donglai County.

At the same time, Marshal Su Shang of the Allied Army was named the general of the Allied Army Zhenjun by the court, Donglaihou. In addition, they were also rewarded by the court, as well as more than a dozen senior generals of the allied army such as Du Ruhui!

……

Is the overlord of the late Sui Dynasty good-looking?
