Volume 5: Whose Great Cause, Chapter 49: The Differences between Silla and Baekje
Princess Seondeok glanced at the black-toothed Xinfu who suddenly raised her head strangely, walked directly into the big tent from him, waved her hand and said to her entourage: "You all go down." ”
Princess Seondeok's voice is a little hoarse, not as delicate as ordinary women, but a little more magnetic than a man's voice, but has a unique charm.
"Princess......" Princess Seondeok's own soldiers couldn't help but shout, many people did not agree with the princess to go to the Baekje military camp by herself, after all, the Baekje people have always held a grudge against the war more than fifty years ago, what if they were uneasy and kind to the princess?
Princess Shande's phoenix eyes glared, and she was not angry and arrogant, and her personal soldiers hurriedly responded: "Yes." "Retreat.
Seeing that her own soldiers went down, Princess Seondeok glanced at the black tooth Xinfu's personal soldiers again, and said, "There is something in the palace to discuss with your marshal, so you should all go down." ”
Hearing the orders of the princess of another country, the head of the Hei Tooth Xinfu's personal soldiers was a little confused, and he didn't know whether he should obey or not, so he looked at his boss with a brush, and the Black Tooth Xinfu hurriedly waved his hand: "Go down, go down." ”
looked at his own boss, and then looked at Princess Seondeok, the soldiers of the black-toothed Xinfu couldn't help but squeeze their eyebrows, the sky was dark, the lonely men and widows were in the same camp, when did their own adults get along with Princess Silla, I couldn't help but wonder in my heart, but I really didn't have the courage to hinder the good things of the boss, so I hurriedly retreated, and in a blink of an eye, there were only two people left in the camp of Nuoda, Princess Seondeok and Heizhi Xinfu.
"Marshal Black Tooth, do you know that both your and our countries have fallen into the trap of the Sui people, and the Great Sui has bad intentions towards the three kingdoms, and the current situation is extremely critical, and if we are not careful, we will suffer a catastrophe."
Just when Hei Tooth Xinfu was dizzy in his heart, fantasizing about Princess Seondeok taking a fancy to him, Princess Seondeok's words suddenly startled him, and pulled his fluttering soul back: "Princess, what do you mean by this?" ”
Princess Seondeok smiled coldly. Seeing the look on Princess Seondeok's face, Heiya Xinfu was greatly unconvinced, and the previous thoughts suddenly disappeared, and his mind turned quickly, thinking about the agreement between Dasui and Baekje, when the envoy came back to report to the king of Baekje Fuyuzhang, the ministers of Baekje felt that it was a great opportunity, although some people raised objections. In the blink of an eye, it was overwhelmed.
Although the Central Plains have been divided for hundreds of years, just a random local dynasty has risen to be larger than Baekje and more advanced in civilization, and Baekje has also paid tribute to the local dynasty established in the Central Plains many times. Wei, Jin, Eastern Wei, Western Wei, Qi, Zhou, Chen, the rise of every country in the Central Plains, Baekje only looked up, Baekje's culture. Religion, Official...... They all learned from the Central Plains, which has always been a state of etiquette. How could they do something that went back on their word? However, Silla could not be trusted, and if it were not for Silla's treachery, how could Baekje lose the Han River Plain and become the weakest of the three kingdoms.
Thinking of this, the black-toothed Xinfu sneered: "Her Royal Highness the princess is too worried, the Great Sui is still the kingdom of heaven, and the Son of Heaven is even more fulfilling." How can a trap be set for a small country like us? ”
Princess Seondeok was stunned. She took the risk and did not hesitate to come to the Baekje camp at night. It was not angry that the landing battle during the day killed thousands of soldiers in vain, this landing battle could have been avoided or done better, but the Sui lord could not wait for even a day, obviously wanting to consume the power between the three kingdoms as soon as possible, if Goguryeo was destroyed this time; If the two countries are seriously injured, is it still necessary for the Great Sui to fulfill the covenant, at least in the eyes of Princess Seondeok, it is completely unnecessary, then the result of this four-nation war will have only one winner in the end, and that is the Great Sui.
Unlike Baekje, who were unanimously happy to reach an alliance with the Great Sui, Silla launched a fierce debate, with half of the people who supported and doubted, and finally the King of Silla made a final decision and agreed to the alliance, but Princess Seondeok was one of the opponents, and the reason for the opposition was not that the alliance was bad, but that it was too good, she did not believe that the Great Sui spent so much manpower and material resources, but in the end it would give up most of the benefits, but the benevolence shown by the Central Plains Dynasty to the outside world also confused her, so she did not insist on her own opinion, after today's battle, Princess Shande's doubts were solved, and the Son of Heaven of the Great Sui was not as benevolent and righteous as he imagined, so the covenant was naturally false.
For this reason, Princess Seondeok was in great danger, so she came to the Baekje military camp to negotiate with Heiji Xinfu regardless of her identity, if the three kingdoms can work together, maybe they can also let the Sui army return, otherwise the three kingdoms will die together at the hands of the Great Sui, but Princess Seondeok didn't expect Marshal Baekje to be so stubborn, and she didn't believe her words.
Princess Seondeok has a noble status and outstanding military achievements, in addition to her father who is the king, the civil and military officials all bow down to her, although Heiji Xinfu is the commander of Baekje, but Baekje's current strength is only about 50% of Silla, how could Princess Seondeok put Heiji Xinfu in her eyes, seeing that Heizhi Xinfu doubted her words, her heart was angry, and said: "So, Marshal Heizhi doesn't believe in this palace?" ”
"Princess, this is a big matter, it's not that Ben Shuai doesn't believe you, but what evidence does the princess have?"
"Evidence? Isn't today's incident enough, if the Great Sui really took Silla and Baekje as an ally, how could he be so unkind, and didn't even give the soldiers a day off, so they let you and me land directly. ”
Hei Tooth Xinfu shook his head: "Princess, of course this is not enough, the Great Sui envoy said well, there is no free lunch in the world, since you and I want to get a large area of Goguryeo after the fact, we will naturally have to pay a certain price, not to mention that without the support of the Sui army, the sacrifice of our landing soldiers will be even greater, princess, today's words should be that the commander has not heard of it, otherwise if it reaches the ears of the Great Sui Emperor, the consequences will be unimaginable." ”
"Okay, okay." Princess Seondeok was so angry that her face turned red: "Since this is the case, then if the palace has not said it, I hope that on another day, the marshal will not regret today's events, and the palace will leave." ”
After Princess Shande finished speaking, she walked out of the big tent of the Black Tooth Xinfu angrily, and the Black Tooth Xinfu hurriedly said behind her: "The princess walks slowly." He drove out and wanted to personally send Princess Seondeok out of the camp, but Princess Seondeok didn't appreciate it, stepped on the horse, flicked the whip and left, leaving a puff of dust.
A woman is a woman, her heart is always too small, and she still has a flaw just now, Hei Tooth Xinfu couldn't help but shake his head, and returned to the tent, his local soldiers were whispering outside the tent, Hei Tooth Xinfu only heard a few incomplete sentences, the topic was extremely ambiguous, in short, the relationship between Hei Tooth Xinfu and Princess Silla must not be simple, otherwise why would the two talk alone, and soon after the conversation, Princess Silla came out with a red face?
The black-toothed Xinfu coughed, and the pro-soldier who was talking reacted, and immediately stood up straight, and the black-toothed Xinfu said solemnly: "The matter of Princess Silla coming here is still confidential, and you must not spread it to the outside world, otherwise the military law will be involved." ”
"Obey." All the pro-soldiers replied in unison, but their faces became even more strange, if it weren't for the hidden secret, why would the marshal give such a solemn order?
Hei Tooth Xinfu had no intention of correcting the gossip in the hearts of his soldiers, and he would not suffer a loss when this kind of thing was spread, and the reason why he was solemn was just that he didn't want to arouse unnecessary suspicion from Sui Jun.
After staying in the camp for a while, Princess Seondeok's words resurfaced in the ears of Heizhi Xinfu, for today's events, Heizhi Xinfu is not as relieved as it seems, although he was born in a family of Jiangmen, but he is not a reckless man who knows nothing, but Baekje is different from Silla, Baekje is now the weakest among the three kingdoms, all of this is due to Silla, rather than letting Silla gain power, it is better to descend the Great Sui, after all, the Great Sui is the upper kingdom of the Celestial Empire, if the Great Sui intends to unify the peninsula, can the combined strength of the three kingdoms be able to resist, in this case, At this time, it was simply dropped, not to mention that the covenant was agreed between the king and the ministers, although he was a former marshal, how could he overturn the covenant privately?
Thinking of this, the black tooth Xinfu made up his mind and shouted outside: "Someone." ”
Several pro-soldiers entered in response: "Lord Marshal, what do you order?" ”
"Prepare, Ben Shuai is going to check the sentry."
"Yes."
There was no word all night, and the next day, the remaining Xinbai coalition army continued to land, the camp had been set up on the shore, and there were already 60,000 troops stationed, no longer afraid of the attack of the Goguryeo cavalry, the landing speed was greatly accelerated, it only took half a day, and the 30,000 army had already crossed the river.
With the completion of the new hundred and two ** team across the river, the river was vacated, and the big ships of the Sui army also began to land on the shore, only to see the bottom warehouse planks as soon as they landed on the shore, and the men and horses poured out of the ship from the inside, unlike the new hundred coalition army, this time the Sui army came over all the cavalry, regardless of the people and horses, as soon as they crossed the river, they were in order, lined up in a neat phalanx to advance, and the whole team was heavily fortified, so that the soldiers of Silla and Baekje looked at it and felt cold.
The speed of the Sui army crossing the river was much faster than that of Silla and Baekje, more than 40,000 horses, and it only took more than an hour to cross the river, which was seen in Baekje, and the commanders of the two countries of Silla suddenly had a completely different taste in their eyes, and the black tooth Xinfu was greatly relieved, the Sui army was so elite, Goguryeo was not afraid, Princess Seondeok snorted, and thought in her heart: "If the Sui army crossed the river first yesterday, how could the Goguryeo people have the opportunity to raid, it is obvious that the Sui army is uneasy and kind." ”
