Chapter 282: Lobbying
The autumn wind suddenly rose, and the border fortress was already gloomy, and the army in the northern frontier, under the leadership of Xiao Wenqing, arrived all the way to the outside of Qingshan City.
The people of Qingshan City had already learned the news of the imminent invasion of Northern Xinjiang, and they all packed their bags and walked to the towns in the interior, so when the Northern Xinjiang army arrived in Qingshan City, the villages outside the city were long gone.
Xiao Wenqing rode on horseback, with a handsome face with an inevitable smile, he looked at the Northern Xinjiang general Patton on the side and said, "General Patton, please wait here for a while, and after taking me to contact General Feng, we are making plans." ”
As soon as Barton heard this, he didn't have any displeasure, now in the northern Xinjiang, no one has any disrespect for this national teacher, he looked at Xiao Wenqing, smiled very much, and said: "The national teacher doesn't need to worry, we will camp here for a little rest, one day's time, enough for you to contact." ”
Xiao Wenqing nodded and said in a low voice, "Okay." ”
After finishing speaking, Xiao Wenqing took Mo Xuan and came to the gate of Qingshan City together. There are only two people between him and Mo Xuan, the soldiers guarding the city gate, seeing that there are only these two people, and they are also Han people, especially after Xiao Wenqing took out the token, after the soldiers saw this, they welcomed Xiao Wenqing and the two into with fear.
Next to the city gate, a man who looked like Northern Xinjiang was a little surprised when he saw the attitude of the soldiers, and after thinking about it, he immediately returned to the place where he was stationed in Northern Xinjiang cautiously.
"You mean, the Han guards have a lot of respect for the national teacher?" When Patton heard this, he was amazed, and he kept walking around the tent, and finally wrote a letter to Hu Yanliang, who was far away in the royal court of northern Xinjiang.
He didn't know what the identity of the national teacher was, first he was intimate with Ke Dun, but this point did not make people suspicious, after all, in this place in northern Xinjiang, it is normal for two Han people to hold together, but now it seems that the identity of this national teacher is still not simple.
Since he can make the Han people respect him, it shows that the identity of this national teacher has a very high status on the side of the Han people, in this case, why does he still want to be a national teacher in northern Xinjiang? What is his intention in coming to Northern Xinjiang?
Barton fell silent as he thought so, and now he only hoped that Hu Yanliang would arrive quickly.
And Xiao Wenqing, who was entering Qingshan City, was not aware of this matter, he walked towards the General's Mansion with Mo Xuan, and carefully observed the various defenses of Qingshan City.
"Xiao Gongzi, this is the General's Mansion, the General has been waiting for you in the Mansion for a long time." The guards respected Xiao Wenqing very much, and after taking Xiao Wenqing to the General's Mansion, they saluted again before leaving.
Mo Xuan looked at the back of the guards leaving, and couldn't help but ask in a low voice, "Master, will General Feng really promise you?" ”
Xiao Wenqing was looking at the heavily guarded General's Mansion, and when he heard this, he said: "I am kind to Feng Feng, he will promise me no matter what, besides, he is not valued in Xiao Yechen, rather than following Xiao Yechen and not being taken seriously for the rest of his life, in this barren place, it is better to go."
Follow me and you will be able to be my founding general! ”
As he spoke, Xiao Wenqing walked into the General's Mansion with great confidence, and General Feng in his mouth was already waiting in the hall, waiting for his arrival.
"Lord Wang......" As soon as Feng Feng saw Xiao Wenqing, he immediately stepped forward, he looked at Xiao Wenqing, there were already some tears on his honest face, he looked at Xiao Wenqing, with many complicated emotions in his eyes.
When Xiao Wenqing saw Feng Feng's appearance, he already had a bottom in his heart, he nodded, and said to Feng Feng: "General Feng, don't come to harm?" ”
Feng Feng's eyes were already full of tears, if he hadn't cared about his face, he would have burst into tears now, he sighed heavily, and said, "I didn't expect that you weren't dead." ”
Xiao Wenqing had already prepared the wording, he shook his head, but his handsome face was as handsome as a breeze with a little melancholy: "At that time, it was true that I was nine deaths, but fortunately, the second prince of Northern Xinjiang saved me, and I came this time to discuss something with you." ”
When Xiao Wenqing mentioned the word Northern Xinjiang, Feng Feng's heart jumped, and he already had a guess in his heart.
"Will you follow me?" Xiao Wenqing looked at Feng Feng, his meaning was already very obvious.
Feng Feng looked at Xiao Wenqing fixedly, and after a while, he still said in disbelief: "Lord Wang, do you want to ......?"
"I'm like a lost dog now, Xiao Yechen is chasing after me, if I hadn't hidden a lot of power over the years, I would have been assassinated by him by now! I have no other way out! Xiao Wenqing said hatefully, as if all the things he did were forced by Xiao Yechen.
When Feng Feng heard this, he fell silent, he did notice the change in Xiao Wenqing, and he also knew that Xiao Yechen was indeed desperate for Xiao Wenqing, but he was still a little hesitant in his heart, not knowing whether he should do this or not.
If he agreed to Xiao Wenqing, he would be a rebel, and by doing so, he would undoubtedly put the lives of the family on the line.
"General Feng, since Xiao Yechen ascended the throne, you haven't been very comfortable, right? You were transferred here from the comfort of Beijing, and the whole family followed you here, are you willing? Xiao Wenqing saw that Feng Feng was constantly hesitating, so he simply said: "Don't you know the reason for this?" Xiao Yechen already suspects you. ”
When Feng Feng heard this, he sighed heavily, and he said in a low voice: "It is indeed as the prince said, the current saint is indeed very suspicious of me, so he sent me to Qingshan City and became a general guarding the border pass. ”
Feng Feng's words were extremely peaceful, but the bitterness in his heart had always existed, who wanted to go from the bustling capital to this barren land with yellow sand? He was also unwilling in his heart, but how could he dare not obey the words of the Son of Heaven?
Seeing this, Xiao Wenqing sneered and said, "General Feng, if you follow me, as long as we can defeat Xiao Yechen, you will be my founding general!" ”
As he spoke, Xiao Wenqing locked a pair of eyes on Feng Feng and whispered, "Do you know? If we add you, we will have forty or fifty thousand soldiers and horses, and with these soldiers and horses, are we still worried that we can't beat Xiao Yechen? ”
"Forty or fifty thousand?" Feng Feng looked at Xiao Wenqing in great surprise: "Lord Wang, where does this start?" ”
"In northern Xinjiang, there are still a lot of soldiers and horses, more than 20,000 soldiers and horses, plus your more than 20,000 soldiers and horses, isn't it enough?"
Listening to Xiao Wenqing's words, Feng Feng fell into deep consideration: "Lord Wang, you let me think about it again." ”
