Chapter 667 - Satisfactory Results
Although Philip V has always been at a disadvantage in the battle and competition with the Romans, and in the end, if he does not win high, he will almost certainly be destroyed by the Romans, but one thing, Philip V's mind is definitely not simple, but he is very thoughtful about many things.
Faced with Yinggao's smiling expression, coupled with Yinggao's previous attitude of doing what he said, Philip V knew that Yinggao should be able to agree if he proposed that he still wanted to return to Macedonia to manage that area.
And this thought had already sprung up in his head on the way back, but at this time, he opened his mouth and said such a sentence.
"I hope that the king can give me an official position, so that I can take the people of my palace to live in the capital of Daqin like the previous Seleu monarch Antiochus III, if the king can give me a mansion, it will be great."
Philip Wu, who is older than Yinggao and doesn't know how much, is like a little brother in front of Yinggao at this time, and after finishing speaking, he scratched his head embarrassedly and smiled.
As soon as Ying Gao heard this, his eyes widened slightly, Philip Wu really could have such an awareness, and it was really what Ying Gao didn't expect, although if Philip Wu really proposed that he was still on the territory of Macedonia, Ying Gao could agree, but it was very necessary to send someone to monitor him, this time since he had already proposed that he wanted to go to Daqin to enjoy life, Ying Gao of course was to push the boat down the river, and then everyone saved me I don't know how much trouble.
"Good! In this case, I will make you the guest secretary of Great Qin, and I will reserve a mansion for you in the most prosperous place in Xianyang City, and the mansion specifications for our Great Qin prince are average, you just need to enjoy the life of my Great Qin! ”
With a wave of Yinggao's big hand, Philip V will be able to get the treatment of a great Qin prince in Xianyang City, as for that guest, he just went to Xianyang Palace to chat with Yinggao if he had nothing to do, and now that Rome has been destroyed, there may be no need to even talk about it in the future.
This is basically the same as the result that Philip V himself thought, although he involuntarily gave birth to a sense of sadness for a while, but he can enjoy life with peace of mind in the second half of his life, which is not bad, like the Roman consuls, most of his life has been fighting back and forth, although he has basically not lost much before, but this time he lost to Daqin, didn't it directly kill him?
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
After thanking Yinggao, Philip V withdrew, and Macedonia didn't want to go back, so he directly sent someone to Macedonia to pick up his wife and children who had survived the Roman attack, and then waited to return to Daqin with Yinggao.
In this way, even if the matter of Philip V is arranged, the rest is the most tangled in Yinggao's heart, Xiang Yu's whereabouts.
Since Xiang Yu formed an alliance with Yinggao outside the Great Wall, he has always been very cooperative with Yinggao, and even hardly once stood by and watched the difficulties encountered by the Great Qin soldiers.
In the battle to defend Seleuc, Ji Bu, who was sent out by Xiang Yu, was also considered to have done his best, and in the end, the Huns' cavalry also suffered a lot of casualties, which saved the three cities of Seleuc.
Yinggao knew that on the surface, the best way was to let Xiang Yu continue to be in charge of the Huns, and this time Xiang Yu's credit was very large.
But there is one point, Xiang Yu's age is about the same as Yinggao, and from this point of view, Yinggao would rather leave the Philip Five clan, who died in an unknown number of years, in Macedonia, than leave Xiang Yu in the territory of the Mauryan Empire and Seleuc.
Yinggao knew what level he could reach with Xiang Yu's ability, but whether he did it or not was just a matter of whether he wanted to do it or not.
According to the history that Yinggao learned before, many emperors will remove all the people who may become a threat to themselves after they have become dominant, and in their eyes, only in this way can they enjoy the fruits of victory with peace of mind.
But Yinggao obviously wouldn't do this, in his eyes, this would not have any effect except being smart and being mistaken by cleverness.
Yinggao knew that if he killed Xiang Yu and Philip V after this battle, the threat of Xiang Yu and Philip V would indeed be gone, but Han Xin and other generals would have a deep fear of Yinggao, such a shadow would definitely be very far-reaching, and in the future, if Da Qin wanted to use troops against any of the forces, the soldiers under his command would not be like this time.
After Philip V left, Yinggao thought about it for a day, and did not summon Xiang Yu, because he really didn't think of a way to get the best of both worlds, and finally Yinggao almost made up his mind in his heart, so he gave Xiang Yu a piece of Macedonian territory and let him develop on these territories, and as long as he hoarded heavy troops on the territory of the Mauryan Empire and Seleuc, there was no problem in thinking about it.
Yinggao's thoughts are still very optimistic, and he said that he put Xiang Yu by his side, which is also a spur for himself and Daqin, saving himself from slacking off one day, even if there is no such thing as Xiang Yu and Philip V, which small force that swallows his anger suddenly starts a war, it is enough.
But just when Yinggao thought about it in his heart, Xiang Yu found Yinggao's door by himself.
After entering the house, Xiang Yu didn't have any polite words this time, and directly bowed to Ying Gao and said: "Xiang Yu has something to ask for, but I don't know if the king dares to agree!" ”
As soon as Ying Gao heard this, his heart moved, and he said that if he proposed it to let Xiang Yu support himself outside, it would be forgivable, but if Xiang Yu said it himself, it would be a little wrong.
But Yinggao didn't have a little surprise on his face, just smiled slightly, and said to Xiang Yu: "What are you talking about, since you and I signed the covenant outside the Great Wall of Shangjun, neither Daqin nor the Xiongnu have broken the covenant, and the cooperation is also very tacit, so Shan Yu has a very high request, but it doesn't hurt." ”
Let Xiang Yu sit down in front of him, Yinggao said such a sentence, but when he said this, he kept looking at Xiang Yu, he found that today's Xiang Yu was not quite the same as the calm and calm in the past, and there was a nervous atmosphere between his eyebrows, which made Yinggao muttered in his heart, and said that this guy would not come to assassinate me today, and then pick peaches, right?
Thinking of this layer, Yinggao couldn't help but move his ass a little farther away, although he was the emperor of Great Qin, but he was helpless because of his size and body, and he couldn't kill the enemy at all, he subconsciously glanced at his side, Yinggao found that Tian Yan was staring at Xiang Yu at this time, and there was also a guard with kung fu on the other side, looking at Xiang Yu like Tian Yan, once Xiang Yu had any bad moves, The two of them would have reacted before Yinggao was hurt.
Tian Yan is not ambiguous about Yinggao's security in her heart, she is not a novice, she understands in her heart, if Yinggao is assassinated at this time, whether it is Xiang Yu or Philip V, there is a very good chance that she will be the king and hegemon in this land, she will definitely not allow such a thing to happen.
But for Yinggao's vigilance, Xiang Yu at this time seemed to have not noticed, after Yinggao finished saying that, the tension on his face seemed to be more obvious, and after a long time, he opened his mouth again.
"Your Excellency doesn't know, what I want to ask for this time has nothing to do with the Huns."
When Ying Gao heard this, his brows furrowed even tighter, and he didn't understand what Xiang Yu wanted to do for a while, so he could only look at Xiang Yu quietly, waiting for his own follow-up.
"What I ask for is that the king can let me return to Jiangdong as a Great Qin person, this time since the world has been occupied by our Central Plains people, it no longer matters who is the Xiongnu's Shan Yu, I will hand over the Xiongnu to Long and Ji Bu, take my wife back to Daqin, and live the life we should live, but this matter must have the consent of the king, otherwise I will rush back to Jiangdong, I am afraid it will not be appropriate."
"This ......"
Ying Gao never wanted Xiang Yu to put forward such a condition, and for a while he didn't know how to answer.
Indeed, Yinggao still knows a little about Xiang Yu, Xiang Yu is definitely a hot-blooded young man with ideals and ambitions, and he also likes to challenge people who are not afraid of death.
And now, almost all the challenges have been completed by Xiang Yu and Yinggao, from the capture of the Mauryan Dynasty to the final killing of the Roman consuls, almost all the major battles Xiang Yu has participated in, what he thought of or did not expect, he took the lead in the expedition.
Even in Xiang Yu's heart, he was luckier than Yinggao, because Yinggao could only command the general direction of the battle in the back, but it was Han Xin and him who really used the troops.
In Xiang Yu's heart, Daqin has completed the unification of almost the entire world, and his credit in this is very great, compared with Han Xin, he can't say that it is worse, because in the process of fighting, many strategies are from him.
After all this is done, if there is any regret for Xiang Yu, it may be that he is not the emperor of Great Qin.
But Xiang Yu also has a very distinctive characteristic, that is, he does what he says, since he once overcame his demons outside the Great Wall and signed an alliance with Yinggao, it means that he thinks he has let go of the hatred between Yinggao and the hatred between Daqin and Chu.
In such a situation, with Xiang Yu's temperament, he would definitely not make a counter-attack when Yinggao fully abides by the covenant, not to mention whether the Huns can beat the cavalry of Daqin, once Xiang Yu does this, he may become a Central Plains man who even the Huns look down on, and that kind of person will be the person he hates the most, so Xiang Yu will not do that.
In such a situation, he chose a way that he might not choose before, retirement, he just wanted to take the young Yu Ji to the place where he grew up to live a peaceful life.
Seeing that Yinggao also had an expression of disbelief after hearing his words, Xiang Yu sighed slightly, he knew Yinggao's concerns, if he chose to go to Xianyang City like Antiochus III and Philip V, and accept supervision under Yinggao's nose, Yinggao might not have such concerns.
But Jiangdong is different, Jiangdong disciples were the main force when he was against Qin, and although many years have passed now, it is far from the point where the people of Jiangdong will forget who he Xiang Yu is, and if Xiang Yu is placed on the land of Jiangdong under such circumstances, it must be very risky for Yinggao.
Comparing his heart to his heart, Xiang Yu can also understand one or two, but he knows that if he doesn't say this, it will be too uncomfortable to hold back, so it is better to throw this problem to Yinggao to see what kind of decision he can give himself.
Just when Xiang Yu lowered his head in some disappointment, Yinggao, who had been silent for almost a stick of incense, finally spoke again.
"In this case, Shan Yu's meaning is that he wants to become a citizen of Great Qin, if that's the case, Shan Yu Ke can't be on an equal footing with me, I don't know if Shan Yu has already thought about it?"
Although I don't know what Yinggao meant by not directly refusing but suddenly coming out like this, Xiang Yu had obviously thought about these things when he said this request, so he nodded slightly after listening to Yinggao's words.
"Good! In this case, as the emperor of Great Qin, I will appoint you as the county guard of Huiji County, and I will take office as soon as I return to Great Qin, how about it? ”
While saying this, Yinggao stood up and looked at Xiang Yu intently, waiting for his response.
Xiang Yu was stunned after hearing this, he never expected that Ying Gao had been thinking about it for so long just now, and he was not thinking about how to refuse his request, but thinking about what kind of official position he would give himself, although he knew that Ying Gao was not a cautious person, but he was not a person with a big heart, this operation did not let Xiang Yu think of the slightest possibility in advance.
