Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Debaters of the World
In Liu Yuetian's room, Shi Le was drinking hot tea with him.
"Brother Shi, that Great Qin envoy came to Tianshui, why didn't you go with you to entertain you?"
Liu Yuetian asked.
"What am I going to do? That Sima Cuo is a celebrity in the eyes of King Qin, and now a pawn of Great Qin, how can I, the last general, be qualified to accompany me, and it is you, the king of the county, will send me to pick it up. ”
The relationship between the two is already very close, and Shi Le often jokes with Liu Yuetian, but what he said is indeed right, when Liu Yuan was able to see Liu Yuetian on the side of his father, it was to give his father face, and since then Liu Yuan has not cared about him at all.
"Pawn?"
In the past two months, Liu Yuetian has read all the books he can find and bought, and he has never forgotten it, and he also has a lot of understanding of the princes of all parties today, this pawn is the official position of Daqin, one of the three princes and nine secretaries, in charge of foreign affairs and diplomatic work, and his power is indeed very great, but he has not heard of the name of Sima Wrong.
Of course, the most recent books Liu Yuetian read were more than ten years ago, in this era, the least of a book is also a few sets of bamboo slips, the most is to be pulled by a carriage, if you want to spread to all parts of the country, you can't do it for more than ten years, if you want to make the spread of news faster, you can only rely on word of mouth, or flying pigeon communication, books are just tools to record history.
"This Sima Co is not an ordinary person, he is a famous columnist in Daqin, one mouth can be worth thousands of elite soldiers, Zhang Yi and Su Qin are the best debaters in the world, although Sima Co is not as good as them, it is almost the same."
"So powerful?"
Zhang Yi, Su Qin, and Liu Yuetian had heard of it when they were in Chang'an, of course, Liu Yuetian was still a gentleman at that time, and he didn't learn all day long, so he naturally didn't have any ink in his stomach.
But even if he is so stubborn, he can hear all kinds of deeds of the two in the mouths of all kinds of people, and you can imagine how famous they are.
According to legend, these two are brothers, Zhang Yi was born thirty years ago, when the northern Saiwai and other places were still a scuffle, although the Qing Dynasty was dominant, but it would take at least ten years to systematically the Saibei, and at that time You, and the two states were already owned by the Li family, they also set their eyes on the land of Saibei, and also wanted to intervene in a piece of the pie.
Zhang Yi appeared at this moment and became the prime minister of the Qing Dynasty, he sat around with his three-inch tongue, and in less than a year, he made all the forces in the north of the country submit to the Qing Dynasty, and the Qing Dynasty unified the north of the country for Fei and became one of the seven princes.
Zhang Yi became famous all over the world through this, and the Qing Dynasty even named him a prince with a different surname, and he was a hereditary descendant of Yongyin.
More than ten years ago, Zhang Yi sent an envoy to Chang'an, along the way, the princes of all parties rushed to send guards to escort, and when they arrived in Chang'an, there were as many as 30,000 guards, which frightened King Zhou to think that the other party was coming to destroy the capital of other countries, and almost abandoned the city and fled.
Su Qin was born ten years later than Zhang Yi, at that time the princes of the seven parties in the world had established their own forces, but each side looked at the other party unpleasantly, the result was continuous war, in addition to Tibet is located on the plateau with inconvenient transportation, the other six parties are fighting all day long, you can't destroy me, I can't destroy you, but they still don't accept each other, the whole world is like a pot of porridge, the people are miserable, and the people are not happy.
At this time, Su Qin appeared, he came from Tibet, rode alone between the princes of the six directions, and it took only two years for the parties to cease fighting, and signed a joint edict in Chang'an that would not use force for 20 years and was issued to the world.
Although there have often been small-scale battles between the princes of all parties in the past 20 years, after all, the war is gone, and the people of the world have also been recuperated.
After Su Qin became famous in one fell swoop, he became a guest of the Tang Dynasty, and was named the Duke of the Pillar of the Kingdom, and his power was no less than that of Zhang Yi.
It can be said that Zhang Yi and Su Qin are the two strongest debaters today, and they have calmed down the situation in the world by relying on their mouths, which can be described as immeasurable merit for the common people.
This Sima Coo debuted five years ago, at the beginning he was just an ordinary official in Daqin, when there was a drought in the whole territory of Daqin, the grain was originally very scarce, and this time it was even more unharvested, not to mention the common people, even the army had no food to eat.
This Great Qin is located in the Western Regions, with the least contact with the Central Plains, and the most extensive area, the greatest threat to the Tang Dynasty, the Qing Dynasty and the Great Wei.
Sima Cuo stepped forward at this moment, and first lobbied Dawu in Jiangnan with the method of long-distance friendship and close attack, and exchanged war horse pig iron for hundreds of thousands of stones of grain, which broke the alliance of the other three parties, and in exchange for more war horse pig iron, the three parties took the initiative to trade with Daqin, which allowed Daqin to avoid a huge crisis.
Sima Cuo has become famous since then, although he is not as good as Zhang Yi and Su Qin, but he is also well known by the princes of all parties, and he himself has jumped from a low-level official to one of the nine kings of Great Qin.
It can be said that today, famous generals are important, but this debater cannot be ignored, especially figures like Zhang Yi, Su Qin and Sima Cuo, who can be worth tens of thousands of troops and have huge energy.
"What Zhang Yi did was to put the Qing Dynasty first, and Sima Cuo stood in the position of Daqin, compared to these two people, Su Qin's credit is greater, but obviously he has a soft spot for Datang, it seems that these three people also have their own hearts, and none of them have confidence in Da Zhou."
Liu Yuetian shook his head and said.
"Your Highness, now Da Zhou is still the co-lord of the world on the surface, but who actually takes him seriously? Especially the corrupt officials of Liang Ji made the Great Zhou deviate from morality, and anyone with insight would not assist the king of Zhou. ”
Shile was not polite.
"Liang Ji These traitors must be eliminated, but not now......... By the way, Brother Shi, a character like Sima Cuo actually came to Tianshui County in person, it seems that something big will happen this time! ”
Liu Yuetian felt a little extraordinary.
"That's natural, Sima Cuo brought five thousand horses this time, all of them are green horses, Liu Yuan Taishou bought these horses, and his strength will be greatly improved."
"Five thousand green horses?"
Liu Yuetian heard this, his heart moved, if these horses were given to him, they would become five thousand wind-chasing horses, but that would cost too much merit value, and he didn't have that much now.
"Brother Shi, this wind-chasing horse is much better than the green horse, I don't know where it is produced."
"Chasing the wind horse is naturally good, but this kind of horse is one in ten thousand, not something that ordinary people can get, the entire Tianshui County is only one Liu Yuan Taishou, a horse costs thousands of taels of silver, and there is no price, but the wind chasing horse is not the strongest, it is said that the lord of Great Qin Yingzheng sat down There are several good horses, one of which is called the sweat and blood horse, the speed of the foot is incomparable, it can be called a priceless treasure."
Speaking of horses, Shile talks eloquently, as a military general, horses and weapons are the love of his heart.
"Sweaty BMW? That is also the existence of a spirit beast in the system, but this kind of spirit beast can not be cloned by low-level horses alone, and it needs to be seen alive to replicate, and it is impossible to get it now, but there is still Lu on top of the wind, and it only takes one hundred and fifty merit points to get one, which is not much for me, and I will get one to play ......... when I have time. ”
