As soon as the day dawned, the Diaoi was busy. Not only did he have to wait for news of Tuoba Xiaoxiao in the city, but he also had to constantly meet with the generals of various tribes, visit important people, and even go to the lower echelons of the rebellious army to have a look, and urge ten thousand horses to hand over his subordinates. This was all a precautionary measure, and when he went to some camps, rumors began to circulate that there were assassins sent by the imperial court who were planning to assassinate him at any time. But none of this could stop Dia Bird's footsteps. Years of experience have repeatedly warned him to detach himself from practice, not to move around to meet people, to sit back and relax in his work, and there will be crises even if there is no crisis.

At noon, the news came back from the city, Tuoba Xiaoxiao gave in and sent Chen soldiers out of the city, and some of the Eastern Xia soldiers quietly entered the city and began to take over the defense.

In the evening, news came back from the imperial court, that some of the rebellious troops had sacrificed their territory, and that the Jingkang army had bypassed some of the regions controlled by the Eastern Xia, and the nearest was only thirty miles away.

This is to be expected.

Qi Lian blushed and came to plead guilty, everyone in the base camp was furious, and Zhao Guo had to take Qi Lian to rush to the first time, kill the leader, and recapture the subordinates.

But Dia Bird was unusually calm.

If the imperial court does not have the slightest appeal, then it is not the imperial court anymore.

It is inevitable that 1,000 or 2,000 people will rebel against the water.

Diao was reading a sternly worded letter sent by Yang Du, but there was not much actual content in the letter, only questioning his intention to surrender in a hurry.

He thought for a moment and replied with a letter.

In the letter, he once again sincerely invited Yang Du to participate in the surrender ceremony, saying that he would wait for Yang Du to come, and warned Yang Du that he was not allowed to rebel against the army controlled by the Eastern Xia. At the same time, he also expressed his determination, saying that he had no intention of Chenzhou or even Chen, after the surrender, he still wanted to return it to the imperial court, and the reason why he surrendered now was out of the heart of guarding the imperial court, out of the ambition to recover Chenzhou, and in order to act as an intermediary to ensure that after the surrender of Chen, the people's hearts would be stable, and they would definitely seal the treasury and wait for the reception of the imperial army.

He simply took out a copy of the articles of association of the tripartite agreement, and told him in a beaming manner: "My master hangs the people for the crime, does not want a thief to die and a thief to live, but also to stabilize the people, on behalf of the army and the people, I hope that the country will be sincere, make an oath of mountains and rivers, witness with Dongxia, and sit on the hearts of the people." Seeing that the people were leaving, he remembered something, called the people back, and asked them to prepare a few catties of Dongxia bacon and some other Dongxia specialties, and ordered: "This is for the generalissimo of sheep." It is rumored that the generalissimo of the sheep and the southerners gave each other, and the southerners were convinced, how could he let him specialize in beauty, and there were just some Dongxia specialties, so he might as well bring them over and let him taste them. ”

Everyone suddenly thought of "Ya General".

His mother's Jingkang people stabbed him, and the king also gave them a special product to the marshal? The king is too elegant.

However, they didn't know that Yang Du received the letter and specialty from Dia Bird, and his eyes showed all kinds of helplessness. The elegant Yang Du is not old, and now he is already a member of the Shangzhu Kingdom, a hussar general, and a third duke.

So when he came to Chenzhou, he didn't have any sharp style, but he didn't dare to slack off against Dia Bird, in fact, the order given to him by the imperial court was still reserved for him to stay still. But how else can he press? As soon as Tuoba Jiuxing ran back, he couldn't hold it down.

Tuoba Jiuxing hung up the news that Dia Niao was going to surrender to the Chen State and join forces to resist the imperial court.

He didn't mean to discredit Dongxia, he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to compete with Dongxia, Tuoba Xiaoxiao killed him, and felt that it was not safe in Liangzhong City, as soon as the Dongxia people arrived, they gave him an excuse to leave the city and return, so he ran away, ran away, and there must be a rhetoric when he went back, so he half fabricated, half guessed, and learned to Yang Du to know.

He felt that it was not enough to consider letting Dia Bird sit in Dachen Prefecture in the imperial court.

Chen Guo's people's hearts collapsed all of a sudden, and that was not the credit of the imperial court.

If the imperial court can surrender the Chen state, the Chen army may still have no combat effectiveness, and they dare not fight with the Eastern Xia, but if the Eastern Xia cooperates with the Chen people, the confidence of the Chen country can be restored, and it is the Dongxia people who cripple them, and the people who make them afraid, the army they are afraid of, are not on the side of the imperial court.

Therefore, he is also "outside, and the king's order is not subject to it."

Although he has no intention of building immortal achievements, if Dia Bird really sits on the throne, he will have to die thousands of people attacking the city, and there is a risk of defeat, and the pressure is all on him.

After he read Dia Bird's letter, he couldn't believe it like Gimbu, but he was indeed a lot more relieved, and quickly drafted the notebook, and sent the agreement of Dia Bird's tripartite oath to Changyue, while he looked at the gift given by Dia Bird in a daze. If Dia Bird sent gold and silver, he dared to ask for it, not because he was greedy for money, but because he also needed to defile himself, and at the same time, he could get a Dongxia attitude, and the king of Dongxia was afraid of him.

The result?

Give some souvenirs for yourself to try.

That's interesting......

At that time, he and the commander of the southerners exchanged gifts, but there were rumors in the court, and the reason why the emperor could bear it was because compared with the southerners, the northerners were the one who took the initiative. Now Diao followed suit, and it seemed that it was merely an imitation, but in fact, it softened his position at once.

He didn't eat it, and the reputation of the year drifted away with the wind.

When he eats, he shows that he admires each other for each other, and if he shouts that the other party has a conspiracy, a trick, and is aggressive, and even uses troops regardless of the opposition of others, it is tantamount to fighting for the sake of fighting.

In fact, Dongxia isolated the army of the imperial court and did not allow him to get close to Liangzhong City, he deliberately found an excuse to really fight, otherwise if the news brought back by Tuoba Jiuxing was reliable, when Diai Niao and Chen Guo conspired, the risk of defeat would increase.

Look at the bacon, dried melons, and pine nuts sent by Dia Bird...... Yang Du has a bitter stomach.

Dia Bird showed goodwill, and also expressed mutual appreciation, which is equivalent to giving you an excuse to make up for it, and you use force without authorization, that is, others have no intention of fighting you, and you are provoking a war.

He was very helpless, seeing that the people around him were surrounded by him, and he thought that these gifts were shabby, but he cooperated with the letter of "Lost East Harvest Mulberry Elm", the so-called tripartite oath, and commented from the bottom of his heart: "This son is a very person, extremely treacherous, even if he returns Chen Zhou to the imperial court, it is equivalent to the imperial court helping him achieve great fame." And he won the hearts of the people of Chenzhou, when to take it, when to take it. ”

To take or not to take, you can't refuse.

Can you refuse the Tripartite Oath?

It's all to persuade you Jingkang to treat Chen Min well, and at the same time, it is also to disintegrate Chen Min and really become a part of the empire, you just refuse for the sake of refusal? In order not to let him Dongxia take advantage of the refusal? Would you rather go to war? And once he refuses, it is tantamount to denying that he will treat Chen Guojun and his people well.

What does this mean, Chen Guoren's will to resist is strong again.

It's an offer you can't refuse.

At least he Yang Du could understand it, and he didn't dare to express his idea at all, so he was sent to Changyue quickly. He knew that the emperor was also bored.

The letter was sent away, and Kenbu's letter arrived.

Gimpo was a letter back to him.

Dongxia Guo's intentions, as well as the reaction to Dongxia, he wanted to communicate with Jianbu, seeing that Jianbu replied to the letter, and the reply was so fast, he came in a hurry, without saying a word, he opened it and read it. As soon as it was demolished, he was taken aback, and Jian Bu actually persuaded him to give up the merits of Tuoba Xiaoxiao to Dia Bird, saying that Dia Bird's family wanted to be famous, which was completely understandable, and if he didn't give it to him, how could he make it worthwhile for people to sacrifice so many soldiers and civilians?

If that's all there is to it, the sheep will not be touched.

The key is another secret sentence from Jianbu: "Those who make knives die by swords, and those who wield swords die by swords. ”

This sentence is equivalent to Jianbu making a guarantee, he Dia Bird is to achieve fame, just to achieve fame, with fame, he himself is also afraid.

This is gradually being corroborated.

Yang Du lay on a chair with his arms outstretched, looking up at the night sky, lost in thought.

If it was really him who achieved his fame, the tripartite oath, in fact, also restricted him to death, could he still take Chenzhou again? He took Chenzhou, and he himself broke the oath.

At some point, when will he blatantly break the oath?

The world is despised.

But those traitorous males, how many people care what the world thinks of him?

After thinking about it, after thinking about it, I took out Jianbu's letter and read it, but I couldn't read anything again...... But Yang Du changed his angle, and he also knew why Dia Bird had to be so famous.

Destroy the Chen State, he Dongxia is also in danger, he does not occupy the recovery of Chen soil, does not occupy the reputation of Yong Mur, what will the court do to kill him in the future?

In this way, it is also a means for him to protect himself.

He sat on the heart of Chen Min, and in the future, Jingkang would cut him down, and Chenzhou would also be chaotic, and because of his merits, the people of the world would sympathize with him, and even as soon as the emperor said that he wanted to cut down Xia, some ministers stood up and shouted: "Xia has not lost his morality, he has made great contributions to the imperial court, and he will not surrender." ”

But how do you prove what Dia Bird really thinks?

It was dawn, and he was still hanging on the chaise longue staring at his eyes and shaking.

This can't be helped, Dia Bird's wisdom is full of demonic nature, if you don't try your best to crack it, you can't find his tricks.

Rubbing his red eyes, there is an urgent question to answer Dia Bird, who surrendered to Chen Guo, and whether he would take anyone with him. If you don't bring it, you give up the surrender and take people with you, once there is a change, you and a cadre of generals are there, and the consequences are unimaginable...... Moreover, if you don't make a decision, people will be surrendered, saying that they will wait for you, but if you don't go, you don't say whether you will go or not, what about people still waiting for you?

What's more, the time is pressing, and the question can't be sent to Changyue, and it can't be answered by the imperial court.

To go or not to go?

To participate or not to participate?

After thinking about it for a while, he felt that he still had to be cautious, he still didn't go, and he didn't send a general, just send an envoy to bring some to join the army, and he went, but he couldn't agree that he was qualified to surrender to Chen Guo, and while he objected, he saw how the situation was on his side.

Arrange these things, and someone at the bottom will come to report it, saying that "Zhu Chang" wants to see him.

He knows this "Zhu Chang".

This Zhu Chang, even Tao Kan wrote to him to explain that the purchase of prisoners of war, slaves and livestock with the army was not only supported by Tao Kan, but also known to the emperor...... How did the prisoners of war, slaves, and livestock of the imperial court digest? The emperor acquiesced. So this Zhu Chang is simply an outlier in the army.

Although Yang Du was disgusted, and even a little sympathetic to the nomads who would be resold as slaves, he still had to throw off the burden for the imperial court and exchange some military expenses from this Zhu Chang.

I don't know how much money this Zhu Chang has, they all say that his sister is behind him, but a widow is too rich, and Jingkang officials are counting cars and pulling up.

This guy, Yang Du has seen himself, he has no city government, he is a gentleman, he didn't want to see him, so as not to add blockage to his heart, but suddenly a thought came to him, so he said: "Bring him over." ”

Someone brought it in.

Zhu Chang nodded, but went up and sat next to Yang Du, looked left and right to see no one, handed over a box, and didn't look at it, this is a box of silver tickets.

Yang Du is not a greedy person, but he still accepted it, he desperately wanted to defile himself, so naturally he would not be polite.

When Zhu Chang saw that the money had been received, he immediately smiled and said repeatedly: "Thank you Marshal for taking care of you." Thank you Marshal for taking care of you. After saying that, he said, "I have something I want to discuss with you." Didn't the King of Eastern Xia take Liangzhong City away? He will surely have more slaves and horses in his hands, and you see, will you send me over and buy him there?" After saying that, he stared at Yang Du earnestly and said, "Marshal." You don't know, slaves are in demand, I don't know how many manor owners are waiting in line to buy, originally my sister said that she would use it herself, but as soon as people brought it to the Central Plains, others came forward to buy it, and if they didn't sell it to offend people, they couldn't keep it. I thought, the war is almost over, I don't keep some, my sister will clean me up when she comes back. ”

Yang Du did not move on the surface, but in his heart, it was a verification of "it was so".

He was about to let people verify whether Dia Bird was for fame or profit, so he said, "Then how can you let me help you?" ”

Zhu Chang said: "The people under my hands have already arranged for me. Let me tell you that you are going to escort me there, and then I will bring back the slaves and livestock, and you will let them go. ”

Yang Du nodded, he pondered for a moment, and said, "Yes." You can do it under my name. Go for it boldly. However, I don't understand, how sure can you get the king of Eastern Xia to sell you people and livestock? ”

Zhu Chang smiled: "You don't know this." The king of Dongxia, I also have a relationship. Besides, there are so many people in Chenzhou, and he can't take them away, how much will he sell to us, right? ”

Yang Du laughed.

Zhu Changxin happily waited, and said in his mouth: "What does the marshal think so too?" ”

Yang Du burst into laughter.

He wanted to say, "You head, run and play with Diao, don't stay there, and I will have to come forward to save you then." ”

Thinking so in his heart, but not saying so in his mouth, Yang Du looked serious and said, "Don't find a slave yourself." You must be sold in Dongxia. Chen Guo's surrender is imminent, if you don't go through his hands and kidnap people as slaves, this is against the law of the country, and I won't protect you. ”

Zhu Chang nodded and said, "I understand." I know. ”

Yang Du waved his hand and told him to leave immediately, and he applauded lightly, summoning the spy leader at his hand, and when the intelligence leader in black was standing beside him, he said, "Spread it out." It is said that Dia Bird contacted the slave traders and prepared to resell Chen Guoren for military expenses. ”

He smiled and whispered: "The momentum is going to be built, he has a criminal record, and he is not afraid of people not believing him." ”
