Chapter 420 Inferior to others, Emperor Pingtang and the tiger seek skin

What prompted Li Shiluan to finally nod and agree, and made up his mind to cooperate with the Dingbei garrison was what Li Deyi said, after the victory, divide the land and city occupied by the Liao State with him. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

A round of red sun, when Li Shiluan finally decided to cooperate, suddenly shot a red light from outside the window, illuminating Li Shiluan's whole body, like a red robe, suddenly showing the emperor's atmosphere. Even Wei Zhiyan couldn't help but be dumbfounded.

Li Shiluan's throne was not right, and subconsciously, he couldn't wait to prove that he was a Ming monarch, and Ming Jun's ascension to the throne was of course in accordance with the will of heaven (the means can be ignored).

It's like a drunk who is already drunk, not only to say that he is not drunk, but also to find a way to prove that he is not drunk.

Among the several important symbols of the Ming Dynasty, there are the expansion of territory, the unification of the world, the creation of a prosperous era, the coming of all countries, Haiqing Heyan and so on. Now, the Dingbei Garrison Corps promises to help it accomplish a goal, that is, to expand the territory, and Li Shiluan will of course be tempted.

But Li Shiluan is the emperor of the Tang Dynasty after all, and as the king of a country, he would actually believe that the Dingbei garrison can help him expand his territory, not to mention 100,000 soldiers and horses, and pay all his own money and food. In the eyes of ordinary people, this emperor is absolutely a fool.

In fact, Li Shiluan finally made a decision to trust the Dingbei garrison and cooperate with it. Far from being stupid, he was well thought out.

The 30,000 elites of the Dingbei garrison regiment are just outside the city, and they can't be beaten, Li Shiluan's final decision actually has a bit of the flavor of the alliance under the city.

After Li Shiluan ascended the throne, he took over the intelligence system left by his father, and he knew some secrets, which also deeply influenced his decision-making this time.

When the Dingbei garrison broke through Luodu City, it finally gave up Luodu City to his own family, and Li Shiluan finally understood some of the details. He knew that it was not as simple as the rumors in the outside world that his father exchanged a girl for a male city.

The Dingbei garrison captured Luodu that year, and it is said that it was because the commander of the garrison regiment had promised to take Luodu as a dowry and win his sister. Li Shiluan heard that Wu Switch, the general of the Qianping Zhou Dynasty, was angry and turned into a red face, and let the Liao people enter the customs.

But he has never heard of someone who is willing to give up fighting for world domination for the sake of popularity. This Luodu City is the foundation of the emperor recognized by the world. Previously, Xiping Zhou and Wang Songcheng were all emperors here. In the eyes of Li Shiluan, it is to give up the world and want beauties not to be beautiful.

After learning about this inside story, Li Shiluan was also quite disdainful of Head Xiao Liu. How can a man be so short of breath as a man? I want both the country and the beauty! Your Majesty, pay attention to the kidneys.

Later, he learned from the news from the north that the Dingbei garrison had also broken through the Yecheng of the puppet emperor Shimaizhou one day, and sold it to Liu Weiyi! After Liu Fuyi took over Yecheng, because of its solid foundation, he has now taken advantage of the situation to occupy the entire Shanghe Province and part of Xiahe Province.

Through these two cities, Li Shiluan felt that although the Dingbei garrison was powerful and invincible in the world, it did not seem to have any ambitions for the territory of the city. If you want to say that you captured Luodu at the beginning, it was because your own army was outside the city, and you had to give it to your own family as a favor, which is barely reasonable.

However, a few years ago, when the Dingbei garrison captured Yecheng, it almost bulldozed half of Shanghe Province all the way, but in the end, it was all cheaper, and the Dingbei garrison still retreated to Dingbei County to defend itself.

In the view of Li Shiluan, who is determined to expand his territory and dominate the world, will there be such a thing in the world? The heroic cities in their hands actually raised their hands and let them out.

In this world, Zhongshen City has been razed to the ground by the Tuliao people, Luodu in the west, Yecheng in the north, and Shikang City in the east, which are the three most magnificent cities in the world. There are two of the three in the Dingbei garrison regiment, but they don't want a city, and they continue to retreat to live in that small Dingbei County.

Knowing clearly the sequence of the two cities, Li Shiluan already believed in his heart that the Dingbei garrison really did not intend to dominate the world. As for what the Dingbei Garrison Group wants to do, Li Shiluan doesn't know much now, but he knows that as long as the Dingbei Garrison Regiment has no ambition to dominate the world, then he can let go and cooperate with it.

At this time, Li Shiluan finally showed a little bit of Mingjun's eloquence, and the cadres were arbitrary, and decided to give it a try and cooperate with the Dingbei garrison regiment.

Having said that, if you give 100,000 soldiers and horses to others for moderation, aren't you afraid that you will not be able to repay the loan?

Of course, Li Shiluan was afraid, but he was not frightened by the fear in his heart, but made this decision after carefully analyzing the situation and adopting the opinions of his courtiers.

Li Shiluan never had a hot head, and when he saw that he was a little sure, he immediately became like a gambler, and he didn't consider all kinds of consequences, and immediately went out to buy and leave.

He chose to see through the current situation from another angle.

In the face of today's Tuliao State, Li Shiluan has estimated more than once that even if he spends 100,000 elites, he may not be able to distinguish the victory from the Tuliao people. He has been on the battlefield for a long time, is familiar with warfare, and is still very sure of his own battle situation.

In addition, Li Yaoshi also said that if he wants to lead the army to the east to conquer the Liao State, he must have 300,000 soldiers and horses, which is the entire strength of the current Pingtang State.

Since he may not be able to defeat the Tuliao State by spending 100,000 soldiers and horses, it is better to lend these soldiers and horses to the northern garrison regiment and attack the Tuliao with them.

Therefore, Li Shiluan thought about it for a night, and finally decided to cooperate with the Dingbei garrison. As for things like saying that the Dingbei Garrison Regiment changed its hexagram and endangered Luodu, Li Shiluan naturally had precautions in his heart. He was confident that even if the Dingbei garrison took the opportunity to make trouble after taking the 100,000 soldiers and horses, he would be able to control the situation.

In other words, Li Shiluan knew in his heart that if the Dingbei Garrison really wanted to get rid of him, the emperor, and help his fourth brother ascend the throne, he would not have to play these tricks at all, and he would not be able to resist it at all. That's why this covenant will have the meaning of an alliance under the city.

Pharmacist Li's sentence: "The only way to fight to the death is to the minister." It has made Li Shiluan's heart very clear.

In the end, weighing the pros and cons, Li Shiluan honestly chose to cooperate with the Dingbei Garrison Regiment, instead of shirking it in every possible way, in case he annoyed the bandit-like deputy head of the garrison regiment, and then gave himself a "sky-shaking thunder".

After thinking about it, several important ministers had arrived, and Li Shiluan directly instructed Wei Zhiyan to repeat the matters mentioned by the Dingbei Garrison to the ministers.

After hearing this, the three old prime ministers didn't know how to respond. They have lived all their lives, and they boast that they have seen monstrous winds and waves covering the sea. They had never heard of such a thing in the world.

It was the last years of the Pingzhou Dynasty, when the world was in turmoil, and the last generation of the Dou family stayed up all night to drink and feast, often not going to court for dozens of days, let alone seeing courtiers.

The eunuchs around the emperor waited for the opportunity to unite with several treacherous foreign ministers to control the government and act recklessly. Eunuchs are greedy for money, traitors are greedy for power, and the two have joined forces to make the world a miasma. How many loyal ministers were unjustly killed, and how many outspoken courtiers were dismissed and exiled.

Outside the imperial palace of Zhongshen City, many ministers were beaten to death by the court staff, and the land there was even soaked in the blood of loyal ministers.

The dynasty has reached the end of the world, and it is really a decline and a group of demons are dancing.

The emperor is not angry, and he has fun every day. Several adult princes fought fiercely for the throne, and they wantonly wooed their ministers to exclude dissidents. This kind of behavior completely pushed the already crisis-ridden Pingzhou Dynasty into the chaos of party strife. Di Dashuai is one of the victims of the prince's rivalry.

The party struggle intensified, all the courtiers who were able to do things were cleaned up, and the few remaining ones were all wise to protect their lives and resigned and went into hiding. Everyone is busy with political disputes, no one in the court is doing things, and no one cares about disasters everywhere.

In the past five years, the whole world has been surrounded by displaced people, and hunger has spread everywhere.

At that time, the Ping Zhou Dynasty could be said to be internal and external troubles. The interior is in chaos, the miasma is smoky, and the external border is also uneasy.

The Tuliao people in northern Cyprus recovered their vitality and plundered the troops every year.

The border troops everywhere could not defeat the Tuliao people, so they only dared to retreat in the fortress to defend it, and when the Tuliao people retreated, the border army ran out to kill the good and risky merit, falsely claiming a great victory. The government is controlled by treacherous villains, as long as you send money, no matter how ridiculous the good news is, you can pass it.

Pity the innocent people in the border areas, the Tuliao people will run away when they come, and the officers and soldiers will run even more when they come.

However, those big families in the DPRK who only care about making money are secretly engaged in dark transactions with the Tuliao people, and there is nothing they dare not sell in grain, ordnance, and tea. The Tuliao people used the money they stole from the border towns of the Pingzhou Dynasty to exchange a large number of ordnance with the families of the Pingzhou Dynasty, and in just two years, they completely dominated the grassland, and no one could beat them again.

At that time, these three old prime ministers were not in the court, although they were in the countryside, they had already seen the ambition of the wolf son of the Tuliao people, and under the leadership of that Fan Guoshi, sooner or later they would sweep the whole world.

They led their respective families and began to hoard a large amount of food, accumulate private soldiers, and build dock forts, preparing to survive the next chaos in the world.

It didn't take long for the Tuliao people to come, these three old prime ministers watched the prosperous Zhongshen City turn into a sea of fire with their own eyes, and the princes and nobles in the city, ordinary people, no different from pigs and sheep, were slaughtered and ravaged by the Tuliao people.

The three old prime ministers thought that they had experienced this kind of tragedy in the world, and their hearts were already unwavering, and nothing could make their hearts palpitate.

But just now, after the three of them heard what Wei Zhiyan said, their hearts suddenly set off turbulent waves again. What's more, the wrinkled old faces of the three Zaifu, which had not changed for 10,000 years, actually stretched out all the wrinkles in the next moment.

The three of them opened their eyes wide at the same time, opened their mouths to the maximum, and asked in unison, "Is what Young Eunuch Wei said true?" ”

Wei said bluntly: "Xiaguan is not half a lie. The deputy head of the garrison regiment was outside the city at this time, and if the three prime ministers didn't believe it, they could go out of the city and ask. ”

The three prime ministers closed their mouths at the same time, and began to frown and ponder.

This kind of thing, Rao is the three of them are more than 200 years old, and they have never seen or heard of it. But now, it's happening right in front of your eyes!

Li Shiluan knew that the matter was big, and even if the three Zaifu had been through a major event for a long time, it was not something that could be decided casually for a while, so he didn't urge the three Zaifu to express their opinions immediately, and turned his head to look at Pharmacist Li again.

After listening to Wei Zhiyan's words, Pharmacist Li was also greatly surprised in his heart. Because the deputy head of the garrison regiment actually asked him to fight by name, and he was so appreciated by the Dingbei garrison regiment, at this moment, Pharmacist Li was also quite complacent in his heart.

Out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of the emperor's inquiring gaze towards him, and Pharmacist Li immediately put on the standard appearance of a human minister, took a half step forward, bowed down and said, "Your Majesty, the last general thinks that you might as well give it a try." ”

Hearing this, Li Shiluan's face was surprised, and he motioned for Pharmacist Li to continue. (To be continued.) )
