Chapter 117: Hanging
Nakatomi Kamazu is a very legendary person in the history of the Wa Kingdom. In 645, that is, in the seventeenth year of Zhenguan, he launched a coup d'Γ©tat with Emperor Kotoku of the Japanese Imperial Family, assassinated the general who was in power at the time, abolished a series of aristocratic privileges, imitated the political and economic system of the Tang Dynasty, and gathered centralized power.
That year, Chen Fei had just gained a firm foothold in the court, and the then crown prince Li Chengqian failed to rebel and was imprisoned.
Obviously, the luck of Zhongchen Kazuzu was much better than that of Li Chengqian, and he successfully launched a coup d'Γ©tat to stabilize the royal regime, and he also became the number one hero under the royal family, assisting the regime and leaning towards the government and the opposition.
Although the reforms initiated by the imperial family were successful, the Wa kingdom was still in chaos and turmoil.
Generals from all over the world coveted the position of the general, and they always thought of leading the army to attack the royal capital, turning themselves into generals and regaining control of power.
The arrival of the Tang army undoubtedly made the turbulent situation of the Wa State a little more variable, and could even completely change the status quo of the Wa State. If the Tang army helped the royal family, the generals stationed everywhere would have lost hope. But if the Tang army chooses to support a certain general, then according to the comparison of the strength of the Tang Dynasty and the Japanese royal family, I am afraid that it will ...... The latter was completely unable to resist. The centralization that had been built up with great difficulty was likely to collapse overnight.
Therefore, when Zhongchen Kazuzu came to the Tang Army's garrison, all the nearby nobles and generals focused their eyes on them, and even sent many spies to lurk at the edge of Zhongchen Kazu's convoy to monitor their every move.
However, the reaction of the Tang army was beyond everyone's expectations - the Zhongchen Kazuzu came to the Tang army's camp, but he didn't even let them in the camp, and was directly stopped at the door!
This made the Zhongchen Kazuzu very embarrassed and frightened - the envoy of the Tang Dynasty refused to see him, does it mean that the envoy of the Tang Dynasty has changed his mind and wants to support a certain general to take the throne? If it was true, wouldn't that mean that the changes he had so hard to launch would eventually come to naught? This is absolutely unacceptable to him.
In order to meet Chen Fei and make him change his mind, Zhongchen Kazuzu waited outside the Tang army camp for three days, and was drenched in rain for two days.
You must know that at this time, the climate of the Wa Kingdom was still very cold, especially when it was still raining lightly, and the fact that the middle minister Kamadashi was the chief minister could deign to endure such treatment, which was enough to see his sincerity.
But Chen Fei just didn't see it! That's right, since you are willful, you must be willful to the end, and if you don't see it, you can't see it!
Chen Fei's move made the Zhongchen Kazuzu feel cold to the end, but it made the nobles and generals who were watching excited, thinking that this was a signal revealed to them by the envoys of the Tang Dynasty - overthrow the royal family and support a general to ascend to the throne!
So those nobles and generals came outside the camp one after another and asked to meet Chen Fei. What frightened the ministers was that the envoys of the Tang Dynasty were willing to meet those nobles and generals, but they were unwilling to meet him! Could it be that the envoys of the Tang Dynasty really intended to favor those foreign generals? Could it be that the changes that were launched with great difficulty ten years ago are now really going to be in vain?
Especially when he saw those generals entering and leaving the camp in front of him, he trembled with anger, and at the same time, his heart was cold to the freezing point.
He had to think about how to face the situation in the future, how the Don Army assisted a certain general, and how they should resist.
But...... Although those generals went in and out of the camp, there was no news that the Tang envoy had reached a cooperation with any general. Although the situation is not optimistic, at least it is not bad to the extreme, and Nakatomi Kamazu chooses to continue to wait.
At least...... He can't leave until the Tang envoy doesn't make a statement!
At the same time, in the Tang army camp, the active Yu'er took Wu'er to jump up and down in the camp, and almost every day he had to climb the lookout to "point out the country", which made Chen Fei very helpless, but the two little children didn't cause anything except for a little accident, plus they had a very good relationship with the generals in the army, and were deeply loved by the generals, so Chen Fei let them go, no longer care about them, and concentrate on dealing with those Japanese people who ran over and nodded their heads.
Today, as soon as Chen Fei saw off the last visiting general of the Wa Kingdom, and spread out the map of the Wa Kingdom (copied from the system) for research, Yu'er and Wu'er ran in.
"Daddy, that Japanese man is still standing outside the camp today, he's been standing for five days, and Daddy doesn't plan to see him?"
Chen Fei put down the map in his hand, put it on the table, looked up at Yu'er and asked, "What?" Does Yu'er want her father to meet that Japanese man? β
"It's not, it's just strange why Daddy doesn't want to see that person, and Daddy and the other people are just a false snake, in that case, why do you want to hang that person?" Yu'er scratched her head and wondered.
"Hahaha, that's a good question. Yu'er, do you think Daddy wants to go to war with the Japanese people? Or do you want to do it in other ways? β
Yu'er's eyes lit up, and she said excitedly: "Of course it's a battle!" Daddy once said that the Japanese country is a country that bullies the weak and fears the hard, and only when we beat them down will they be completely convinced of us. Oh! I understand! Dad, you deliberately hung him and let other Japanese people stimulate him, do you want him to make him unbearable and send troops to attack first, right? In this way, we will be famous and can send troops to attack in a righteous and bright way. The more Yu'er spoke, the more she felt that what she said was reasonable, and excitedly added "body language". Wu'er on the side also deeply agreed, nodding constantly.
Chen Fei...... Seem... There was some truth in what he said, and even he didn't think of it.
"Uh...... This," Chen Fei sighed helplessly and touched Yu'er's head: "The idea is very good, but your father didn't have this idea." Yu'er, Daddy, let me ask you, if you were a mid-minister, and you are in this embarrassing situation now, what would you do? With the soldiers under your command, do you have the courage to go to war with us? β
"This..."Yu'er thought of the ragged army outside the camp that looked like Hanako, hesitated, and finally shook her head: "Impossible, going to war is not a wise choice, it will only accelerate the demise of the Wa Kingdom, if I were a Zhongchen Kamazu, I would definitely not do such a brainless thing." β
"So even if you are not convinced, you have to endure it! Not only have to endure, but also have to lower your posture and strive for cooperation with us! Chen Fei said with a grim smile.
Yu'er suddenly realized, "I see, Daddy wants to use this way to knock on the Zhongchen's sickle, so that our future negotiations are in a favorable position." β
"Clever!" Chen Fei gave a thumbs up and said, "If you want to make them surrender to us without spending a single soldier, it is absolutely impossible to do it without spending some means." If we do nothing to receive Kamazu normally, I can assure you that he will never agree to surrender without cause, and even if we start a war, we will be in an awkward position of being unkind and unjust.
But what if you get along with those generals first? Then we have the initiative. If you want him to stand outside and blow the cold wind, let him blow the cold wind. And he can't have any complaints, as long as there is a complaint, Lao Tzu will unite with a certain general to do it together with the royal family of the Japanese Kingdom! Let's see if they dare to chirp! β
Yu'er Wu'er...... In terms of tricks, they only serve their fathers (fathers)!
