Chapter 101: Each has a ghost
Yang Gon let out an "oh" and asked, "Liao Taizu dominates the grassland, why can't he be considered a hero?" ”
"The Khitans burned, killed and robbed in the Central Plains, I don't know how many families were destroyed, what kind of heroes can they be regarded as heroes?" Yang Lian scoffed, and did not deliberately curry favor with Yang Gon because he worked for the Khitans.
Yang Gon couldn't help but be stunned, and was a little more puzzled by Yang Lian, at least judging from the situation in the past two days, Yang Lian had a good impression of the Khitans, but he had such a low evaluation of Liao Taizu, which caught Yang Gon off guard.
"Liao Taizong seized Youyun and improved the system of officials in the north and south, can he be a hero?" Yang Gon asked again, with deep meaning in his eyes.
When Yang Lian heard this, he slapped the case suddenly, scaring the people nearby, Yang Lian snorted coldly and said: "Jun Ai, although you are deeply trapped in the Khitan, I thought you still had the heart of a Han people, how could you be so cheap in order to please the Khitans?" If you are willing to be a lackey of the Khitans, then you will be at your own convenience, and from now on, you and I will have no more topics. ”
Yang Gon's face turned red, he didn't understand what was going on with Yang Lian? While currying favor with the Khitans, why do you look down on the two Khitan saints at all?
"Although I don't like the Khitan, but after all, you are an envoy, I am good to you, it does not mean that I will back down to the Khitans, I might as well tell you, I am also negotiating with Liu Xin of the Han State, and it is almost over, once the Tang Dynasty and the Han State form an alliance, the Khitan people will not be considered." Yang Lian said lightly, with a determined expression.
Yang Gon's face was cloudy, and now the Khitan is in civil strife because of the issue of the throne. Yelu Ruan in Zhenzhou for the southern expedition generals to support the throne, Yelu Li Hu in the support of the Empress Shulu, also eyeing the throne, a few days ago, the two sides met in Ted Spring, Yelu Li Hu was defeated, Yelu Ruan took advantage of the victory to pursue, the two sides in the Huanghe garrison, at any time may break out a big war. It was in this context that Yang Gon followed Yelu Haili to Datang, just to let Datang contain Dahan.
At this time, Yang Gon didn't know that under the maneuvering of Yelu Wu, the two armies already had the intention of peace talks. The lack of information gave Yang Lian an opportunity. Yang Gon's face changed, and he said, "General Yang is like this, isn't he afraid that this time the peace talks will not be successful, and he will lose the opportunity to attack the Han Kingdom?" ”
"Han Kingdom, Ben will lead the troops sooner or later, but Ben will be even more reluctant to cooperate with the Khitans and seduce foreigners into the Central Plains, I can't afford such a big crime. In the future history, I don't want to be the second Shi Jingjiao! Yang Lian made his position clear.
"But ......," said Younggon.
"But what? But why do I have to talk to the Khitans? I might as well tell you that it is impossible for me to live in peace with the Khitan, and in the future, the Tang Dynasty will recover the Central Plains and the Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun; Or when the Khitans go south, it is the time when the two countries meet! However, before that, what could have been promised was that if the Central Plains Imperial Court attacked the Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun, the Tang Dynasty would garrison troops on the border to attract the attention of the Han State; Or when the Khitans go south, the Tang Dynasty will also send troops to assist. Yang Lian said lightly.
Lin Renzhao raised his eyebrows, how could this mean in Yang Lian's words? But out of trust in Yang Lian, he didn't speak, but took a sip of wine in silence.
Yang Gon groaned, this deal is not bad for the Khitans, but what good is it for the Tang Dynasty? Yang Gon said: "Then what conditions does Datang require?" ”
"The requirements are not high, every year Datang will take out a part of the money to buy Khitan war horses at the market price, two thousand a year! Remember, I want the best warhorse. Yang Lian said.
Yang Gon hesitated, Yelu Haili considered that he was from the Central Plains, and asked him to come to tempt, but he didn't expect Yang Lian to be like this, and he hesitated in his heart, so he had to give up his hand and said: "I will return to the chief envoy about this matter." ”
Yang Lian nodded in understanding, put on a smiling face, and ate and drank with the two.
Yang Gon was even more puzzled in his heart, what does this Yang Lian mean? Full of wine and food, Yang Gon stood up and left.
Lin Renzhao said in a low voice: "Commander Yang, what do you mean by today's words?" ”
"The Central Plains court has always been strong, and the Khitans thought that coming to peace talks this time would be a mercy for the Tang Dynasty, but the general wanted to let Yelu Haili know that the Tang Dynasty would not pin their hopes on them, and they were all equal in the matter of forming an alliance." Speaking of this, Yang Lian sighed slightly in his heart, if it weren't for the fact that the two countries were too far away, and the Tang Dynasty was relatively weaker than the Khitan and Han kingdoms in terms of national strength, how could Yang Lian suffer so much?
Lin Renzhao was still a little hesitant and said, "Commander Yang, if the Khitans send troops, will the Tang Dynasty really send troops to respond?" ”
Yang Lian smiled and said, "This matter is very important, and it must be agreed by His Majesty, but if you take advantage of that time and wait for the opportunity to recover the Central Plains, it is not impossible." With that, he walked out of the liquor store.
Jerodheri was about thirty years old, and his father, Mada, was the nephew of Jerod Light. Ma Ta mainly occupies the sixteen states of Youyun, so the Khitan civil strife has a great impact on Ma Ta, and when Yelu Ruan and Yelu Lihu fight, Ma Ta can only rely on himself. So in the first time, Ma Da thought of the Tang Dynasty, which was located in the south of the Han Kingdom. Hopefully, through alliances, stress can be relieved.
At the beginning, Yang Lian was very enthusiastic about his arrival, entertained him with delicious food and drink, and talked with him a few times, but he never had an in-depth understanding and did not know Yang Lian's bottom line. Yang Gon is a Han Chinese, so at the first time, Yelu Haili thought of Yang Gon, hoping that through him, he could find a little wind for the next plan.
However, when Yang Gon brought Yang Lian's latest information and informed Yang Lian's conditions, Yelu Haili gasped for air conditioning on the first floor, this Yang Lian had too much appetite. Although the Khitan people are a people on the grassland, there is no shortage of horses, but horses and war horses have an essential difference, two thousand war horses a year, the number is already a lot, even if the Tang can afford the cost of war horses, but the Khitan can not support so many war horses, once the Tang has a sufficient number of war horses, if it competes with the Khitan for the world in the future, it is the Khitan's fierce rival.
Yelu Haili was a little reluctant, but he also knew that in this negotiation, it was impossible for Yang Lian to take out whatever he needed. Now that the things that Datang needs have been identified, Yelu Haili knows what to do next.
In Honglu Temple, Liu Xin's face was flushed, he couldn't imagine that Yang Lian would do such a thing. His dignified Han King Cai, who is almost above 10,000 people under one person, came to the small Tang Dynasty, which was enough to give them face, but I didn't expect Yang Lian to be so decisive.
At this time, Liu Xin had already understood Datang's thoughts, and he knew better that Yang Lian was not qualified to do such a thing at all, but now that he had done it, it proved that this was not actually what he meant, but what Li Jing, the son of the Tang Dynasty, meant.
Liu Xin was suddenly, could it be that Datang is very hostile to Dahan? Although the Tang Dynasty and the Central Plains Dynasty have always been at odds with each other, after all, the Han Dynasty has just established the country, and there is little direct conflict with the Tang Dynasty, why is Li Jing so hostile? Even, he still colluded with the Khitans?
Liu Xin habitually paced in the room, and a deep sense of crisis rushed towards him, if he couldn't complete the task, and let the Tang Dynasty form an alliance with the Khitan, then the Han would be in danger. Especially at a time when internal troubles are not peaceful, external worries are colluding together, which is even more unfavorable to the situation of the Han Dynasty.
Zhao Kuangyin looked at King Cai, and suddenly said: "King Cai, there is a sentence in the humble position, I don't know whether to say it or not?" ”
Liu Xin nodded, even if he didn't give Zhao Kuangyin face, he would have to give Zhao Hongyin face, so he said, "General Zhao, if you have anything to say, you might as well say it directly." ”
Zhao Kuangyin glanced at his father, and when he saw him nodding, he coughed and said, "King Cai, the situation is now very obvious, the Tang Dynasty has colluded with the Khitan, and the general thinks that they must not be allowed to unite." ”
Liu Xin nodded, and this sentence went to his heart.
"The Khitans have just arrived in Jinling, even if the progress is extremely fast, I am afraid that there is no result in negotiations with Yang Lian and others, if you take advantage of this time to attack and kill the Khitans, you will definitely be able to destroy the relationship between the Tang Dynasty and the Khitans. Even if they can't turn against each other, at least they can't form an alliance! Zhao Kuangyin said what he thought in his heart.
Liu Xin narrowed his eyes, this method seems to have a certain feasibility, but although the Khitans come from afar, they will inevitably bring a lot of guards, especially the Tang Dynasty will definitely send guards to protect it, and it is not easy to sneak attack.
Zhao Hongyin's face changed slightly, and he said, "Yuen Long, don't talk nonsense!" ”
Liu Xin waved his hand and stopped Zhao Hongyin, although it was difficult to say that things were difficult, but there was finally a way, especially when he knew that Zhao Kuangyin was strong in martial arts, maybe he could really do it.
"General Zhao, how sure are you?" Liu Xin asked.
Zhao Kuangyin shook his head and said, "The last general doesn't dare to speak lightly. But before we do it, we must first understand where the Khitans live, how many people there are, and how many people Yang Lian sent to protect them. ”
"Good, good!" A smile appeared on Liu Xin's face, and he exclaimed: "Sure enough, it's a hero out of a boy!" General Zhao, the matter of attacking and killing the Khitan envoy will be handed over to you two fathers and sons, and this matter must be careful and foolproof. ”
Zhao Kuangyin clenched his fists and said loudly: "King Cai, please rest assured, I ......"
Zhao Hongyin hurriedly planned Zhao Kuangyin's words, and said: "King Cai, this matter is very confidential, and the general must find a good opportunity to start, otherwise if he fails, he will be startled by the snake, and if he wants to stab again in the future, I am afraid it will be difficult." ”
"This is nature!" Liu Xin said with a smile, he knew that the Zhao father and son were strong in martial arts, maybe they could do this, if they really assassinated the Khitan envoy, the Tang Dynasty and the Khitan turned against each other, and the situation of the Han Dynasty would be much better, plus Wu Yue people helped on the side, it would be relatively easy for the Han to pacify the internal feudal towns.
Zhao Hongyin bowed his hand and said goodbye, Zhao Kuangyin also retreated, Liu Xinxin was happy, sat in front of the desk, poured a glass of water and wine, and drank it slowly.
Out of the door, Zhao Hongyin looked at his second son, couldn't help sighing, and said, "Yuen Long, why are you doing this?" ”
"Dad, since I am coming from afar, I naturally have to achieve my goal, otherwise this trip will not be in vain." Zhao Kuangyin was puzzled.
Zhao Hongyin's lips squirmed, he wanted to say something, and finally gave up, how could he tell his son those secrets in his heart at this time?
PS: Answer the book friend "Bookworm - Cancer Snow Rabbit": This Yang Gon actually has nothing to do with Yang Gon (or the prototype Yang Xin) of the Yang family, he is from Youyun, and Yang Xin is from Linzhou, about the area of Shenmu County, Yulin City, Shaanxi Province. In this book, they all appear.
