Chapter 274: Splashing Dirty Water

Alan was very smart, and he heard the meaning of Fa Zheng's words, "Oh, I'm just loyal to Lord Lu Bu, not His Majesty the Great Han Emperor?" ”

"Ah, Lord Lu Bu is enough to represent the Han Empire, and if you are loyal to Lord Lu Bu, you are loyal to the Han Empire. What do you think? Think about it. Fa Zheng said in a seductive tone.

Alan lowered his head and thought for a while, as Fa Zheng said, he is a smart person, and naturally knows how to make trade-offs.

There is no need to burn all the jade, and the complete preservation of Samarkand and his 30,000 subordinates is of course the biggest temptation for him.

The southern provinces, including the city of Samarkand, have been his business for many years, and these 30,000 subordinates are also loyal to him alone, which is the guarantee of his struggle for the throne.

None of this is affected, it is worth it to make a deal with Fazheng, not to mention that Fazheng has also guaranteed to support him on the throne.

Fa Zheng is right, he has always been the second in line to the throne, no matter how hard he works and how he makes some achievements, his father has always favored the eldest prince.

This, of course, made him unconvinced and unwilling, and the idea of a coup d'Γ©tat was not unprecedented.

As his confidant and biggest supporter, Kunbu and his family certainly knew it well.

After Fa Zheng understood and grasped this information, he naturally said what he liked, and it really made him very tempted.

"Lord Fazheng, well, you're right, I do need your help."

"If you can join me in making an oath to the heavens, not to attack the city of Samarkand, to spare my army, and to sincerely help me ascend to the throne of Kangju."

"Then in return, I agree with the Han army to have the right to pass and garrison troops in Kangju State, but to respect the sovereign integrity of our Kangju."

"The Kangju under my leadership is also willing to be loyal to Lord LΓΌ Bu, become an ally of the Han in Central Asia, and provide logistical supplies and appropriate military support within his capacity when the Han is at war with the enemies of Guishan and Anxi."

"Correspondingly, the Han Dynasty should provide convenience and preferential policies for the merchants of Kangju to trade with the countries of the Western Regions and the Silk Road, and the Han army should protect the merchants of Kangju as much as they protect the interests of the Han merchants."

Fa Zheng applauded and laughed, "Haha, I really didn't read it wrong, His Royal Highness Alan is a smart person, and smart people will naturally make the right choice." ”

"No problem, I can agree to you on behalf of Lord Lu Bu on your terms, and I can sign a formal document with you, and if you need me and you to swear to the sky, it's not a problem at all."

"As a gift of greeting, I will return the more than 30,000 Kangju troops we have captured, but I hope you have a way to control these captives."

When Prince Alan heard that Fa Zheng had promised to return more than 30,000 captives to himself, he was of course very happy.

In addition to 5,000 of these captives, there were also 8,000 hoplites, which were the real Kangju elite.

As for how to subdue these captives, Prince Alain is confident that he still has the means.

The next thing is that according to the customs and habits of Kangju, Fa Zheng and Prince Alan swore to the sky together, which is nothing more than an oath to protect the interests of both parties and ensure that Prince Alan ascends the throne.

After the oath, Prince Alain and Fa Zheng became true allies, and naturally the previous tense atmosphere was no longer restored.

Prince Alan ordered the gates of the city to be opened, the city defenses were removed, and the Han army was welcomed into the city.

Fa Zheng also emphasized military discipline to his subordinates, especially the coalition forces of the Western Regions, which were simply stationed outside the city, and were only allowed to enter the city when they were taking turns to rest.

When a great disaster was resolved, the soldiers and civilians of the city immediately sang and danced, slaughtered cattle and sheep to celebrate, and sang the praises of Prince Alain.

Prince Alan held a banquet in his official residence to entertain all the high-ranking generals of the Han army and the Western Regions Coalition Army, and Fa Zheng also released Kunbu and others, and the two sides enjoyed themselves, and the guests and hosts enjoyed themselves.

Khumbu's family is also a big family second only to the royal family in Kangju, and the elders of the family have always held important positions such as prime ministers and generals, except for this prime minister.

Khumbu and Prince Alain are friends who grew up together with a bare ass since childhood, and Prince Alan certainly won't really treat Kombu well.

At the banquet, Alan, Kunbu, Fa Zheng, Ma Chao, and Sima Yi sat together and introduced each other.

When Alan heard that Ma Chao was not only the general of the Han army, but also the concubine of Princess Suguang of Wusun Kingdom, he immediately extended his thumb.

"General Ma Chao, you are so powerful, Princess Suguang of Wusun is the number one beauty of the royal families of Central Asia and the Western Regions."

"I think I asked my father to propose marriage to King Wusun back then, and I heard that it was rejected by Princess Suguang. She was so powerful in the kingdom of Wusun that the king could not make decisions for her. ”

"Otherwise, they Wusun would not have been bullied by Western Xianbei and Yue. I've heard that even the crown prince of the Kushan Empire once proposed to Princess Suguang. ”

Ma Chao was praised by Prince Alain, and he was proud and toasted again and again.

Fa Zheng didn't care about Ma Chao, he asked Prince Alain, "Your Highness, now that you and I are a family, we are allies, I want to know what you plan to do next?" ”

Prince Alan also put down his wine glass when he heard Fa Zheng talking about business, "I haven't thought about it yet, I don't know if Lord Fa Zheng can teach me any good ideas?" ”

Fa Zheng pondered for a moment and said, "If you find out that you are working against your father and march to Tashkent, it is very likely that your father will use the people to incite hatred against you. ”

"In this way, even if you defeat them and ascend to the throne, I am afraid that the people will not be convinced, and your foundation will be unstable!"

After hearing this, Alan nodded again and again, "What Lord Fazheng said is extremely true, the people of Kangju are more xenophobic, I am afraid that it will be like what you said, dare to ask what can be done?" can change that. ”

Fa Zheng glanced at Sima Yi, who was always smiling and silent, "Zhongda, do you already have any solution?" Let's hear it! ”

After all, Sima Yi is young, and he can't hide what he has in his stomach, although he pretends to be deep, but when it comes to this time, he can't control himself.

"Lord Xiaozhi, Prince Alan, I do have an immature idea, so I will throw bricks and lead the jade first, if there is something inconsiderate, please add more to Lord Xiaozhi, and General Meng Qi will also help me analyze it."

Even if Sima Yi is pretentious and arrogant to his peers, he has great respect for Fa Zheng and Ma Chao.

is not only because the two are his seniors at the Central Military Academy, but also because their abilities are equally outstanding.

At a young age, Fa Zheng has become the youngest feudal official of the Central Army and the master of the First Army.

Ma Chao is a full-honor graduate like him, and he is also the most similar to Lu Bu's own subordinates that Lu Bu has ever evaluated, but even Zhang Liao and Zhao Yun have never received this comment.

"I think the easiest way is to splash dirty water. Splash dirty water on Prince Alain's biggest rival, the Grand Prince. ”
