Chapter 493 The envoy of the King of Han is crisscrossing Zhang Zifang
With the supply of grain and grass sent by Pingmingguo, there is also a letter from home. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info Zhu Luchen misses his eldest son, and writes to ask Zhu Biao if everything is okay. Zhu Biao is so old, it is the first time that he has been cared for so kindly by his father, he immediately replied with sincere fear, first complaining bitterly that he was unfilial to his son and could not serve his father and mother, and then said that everything was fine for him, so that his father did not have to worry.
Li Deyi is still the same old in Yucheng, after destroying a few black-hearted families with evil traces, he beckoned the people of the city to eat and drink for three days, and each person also issued two silver coins.
Subsequently, the Dingbei garrison regiment marched west to assist the soldiers and horses of the Pingtang State in attacking the city. After the two sides converged, the Dingbei garrison did not unload their armor and did not stop, sweeping the entire western part of Xudu Province in one fell swoop.
Immediately afterwards, the army marched eastward and swept away the last remaining cities in the eastern part of Xudu Province.
When the army reached the east of Xudu Province, it ran head-on into the soldiers and horses of the Han king. The leader of the troops was General Han, the general under the command of the King of Han, who was leading the troops to besiege and attack Xuzhou City.
It turned out that Liu Lai, the king of Han, took advantage of the good situation of the defeat and retreat of the Liao State and was working hard to conquer the east and the west. Now the power of the Han King has controlled the entire Xuhuai Province, and the north is attacking the southern part of Haidong Province. Recently, after Liu Lai, the king of Han, heard the news that the Tuliao Emperor had retreated into Northern Hebei Province, he immediately sent troops to the west, intending to take the opportunity to get involved in Xudu Province.
When the vanguard of the Dingbei garrison met the Han generals, he was leading his troops to storm Xuzhou City. The Dingbei garrison did not sweep away the soldiers and horses of the King of Han as enemies, but stopped first, waiting for the follow-up order.
After receiving the report of the reconnaissance cavalry, the head of Xiao Liu hurriedly ordered his junior brother Li Deyi, telling him not to clash with the soldiers and horses of the King of Han first. Li Deyi led the cavalry under the city of Xuzhou and watched the Han generals lead the siege of the city.
In order to show goodwill, Commander Xiao Liu sent someone to send some wine and meat to the Han General's barracks. General Han received a reward from the Dingbei Garrison Regiment, and Rao was a battle-hardened battle, and he couldn't help but feel sincerely afraid. On the one hand, he sent someone to report to the King of Han, and on the other hand, he hurriedly took out some gifts as a return, responding to this kindness that shocked his heart.
Soon after, the city of Xuzhou was conquered. Subsequently, General Han received a letter from the Dingbei Garrison Regiment, saying that the cities further west had been captured by the Dingbei Garrison Regiment, and Xudu Province was already in the pocket of the Dingbei Garrison Regiment. If the king of Han does not want to go to war, then stop here and turn around and attack other places.
General Han had already received an order from the King of Han at this time, telling him not to have any conflict with the Dingbei garrison, and if there was an accident, he should be patient first. General Han saw the letter sent by the garrison regiment, nodded, and said in his heart: "That's it, Xu Du is already in someone else's pocket, so what can I do about it." ”
General Han sent a messenger to the Dingbei Garrison Regiment, saying that he did not intend to be an enemy of the Dingbei Garrison Regiment. Then he began to rest his troops and horses in Xuzhou, giving up his plan to continue westward into Xudu Province.
Xu Huai Province, into the city is now called Dongluo, in the Han Palace, Liu Lai is jumping to his feet and scolding, and his mouth keeps pouring out the dirty words of the street hooligans and green skins: "The Dingbei garrison regiment brewed by Cao He will not come sooner, not later, but at this time, he will come ......."
The new strategist next to him, Zhang Zifang, was silent, waiting for Liu Lai, the king of Han, to finish venting and calm down again.
Liu Lai finally scolded enough, leaned on the couch, and sat down again, his face was not red and he was not panting, as if the person who scolded like a shrew just now was not himself.
Zhang Zifang next to him gave a thumbs up in his heart: "That's it, that is, this Han King can be a scoundrel like this, what a big husband, a big hero!" ”
"I don't know where the King of Han wants to place the North Garrison?" Zhang Zifang asked.
Liu Lai originally knelt on the couch, this kind of sitting posture was popular in their hometown of Peixiong County, and when he heard this, he directly stretched out his legs and split them on the ground, changed to this very rude casual sitting posture, sighed and said: "What can it be." The Tuliao State was defeated by this Dingbei garrison. If the king makes the slightest move, I am afraid that he will be hit by him immediately. ”
Zhang Zifang reminded: "King Han should not forget the matter of Pingming Kingdom in the south. ”
Of course, Liu Lai had heard about Zhu Luchen's claim to be emperor in the south. Not long ago, Cao Suixiao just sent back the latest news from Pingmingguo. Zhu Luchen of Pingming State promised to unite with the Dingbei garrison and send 100,000 troops to attack the Tuliao State. The Dingbei garrison reciprocated by helping it lay down Shikang City and ascend the throne as emperor. Subsequently, the prince of Pingming was taken to the Dingbei garrison, and Pingming began to receive several cities in Xudu Province one after another according to the covenant.
The person under his command who is responsible for searching for intelligence everywhere is a practitioner who is not as fun as his sister-in-law, Cao Suixiao.
This Cao Suixiao, whose natural skills are to pull relationships, play favors, and give gifts to the door, is really a good hand. Of course, he himself is also handsome and stylish, and he is quite capable, otherwise he would not have gotten his sister-in-law.
Liu Lai received the information from Cao Suixiao at that time, but he still refused to believe it. How could there be such a thing in the world, but then, the news that the Dingbei garrison regiment took the soldiers and horses of the Pingtang State and the Pingming Kingdom and defeated the Tuliao State one after another, and Liu Lai had to believe that there was really such an alliance.
After thinking for a while, Liu Lai said: "I'm afraid that the power of this king is weak, and the Dingbei garrison group will not look down on the lone king." ”
Zhang Zifang said: "Although he is not talented, he is willing to send an envoy to the Dingbei garrison group for the king of Han, and he will definitely promote the Dingbei garrison to help the king of Han establish the imperial industry!" ”
Liu Lai was overjoyed when he heard this: "Get the ovary, God gives me the emperor's inheritance!" ”
The soldiers and horses of the Pingming State were stationed in the west of Xuzhou City, and then the army of the Dingbei garrison withdrew to Yucheng.
The Dingbei garrison moved the battalion to Yucheng. Here to prepare troops and horses, rest and recuperate, and prepare to continue to attack North Hebei Province to the north.
The head of Xiao Liu made arrangements for Fancheng and the ten cities in the west of Xudu Province to be divided into the Tang Kingdom. The other cities in Xudu Province were all distributed to the Pingming Kingdom, and in the end, the Pingming Kingdom won fifteen cities.
After the distribution of the spoils, Xiao Liu, the head of the group, asked if the two families had any objections. Although both emperors wanted to get more cities, neither dared to squeak. Today's people are swords, I am fish and meat, what can I do? The sabre of the Dingbei garrison regiment is sharp, and there is a lesson from the past of the Liao country, and no one dares to jump out to be this bird, and suffer this knife first.
On this day, Li Deyi was training Zhu Biao to stand in line, and Li Changle was also messing around with him.
At this time, Li Deyi already knew that Li Changle was actually a woman. His senior brother Xiao Liu, the head of the regiment, found a day of leisure and specially told him about this matter.
After Li De heard this, he had such an expression, nodded and said, "I said that her body is so squeamish and soft, it turns out that she is a woman." Senior brother, then Liu An is a eunuch? ”
Head Xiao Liu couldn't help but roll his eyes and said, "Palace maid." ”
Li Deyi let out a sigh: "Oh, it turns out that Li Changle is not the kind of man who likes dry roads. ”
Head Xiao Liu raised his hand and gave his junior brother a look at the head, and said angrily: "You know too much!" ”
Head Xiao Liu looked at his junior brother's unenlightened appearance, and wanted to ask: "How about letting her be your daughter-in-law?" But in the end, he didn't say anything, and swallowed it stiffly. He was afraid that he would rush and make this matter yellow again.
When Master Sun came to Zhongshen City last time, he saw Li Changle at a glance and asked what was going on. Head Xiao Liu told the part of the thing he knew. After hearing this, Old Medical Officer Sun immediately smiled and said, "The men of the royal family of the Pingtang Kingdom are all very grassy, but the women are good. Your daughter-in-law is an example. Well, it's not bad to let your junior brother marry another princess of the Pingtang Kingdom. You, who are senior brothers, help your junior brother with elm pimples, and you have to facilitate this marriage. It is also good that Brother Li will have an incense heir under the nine springs to offer food. ”
At present, the junior brother doesn't hate Li Changle, and even gets along well with her, so let's make do with it first, and don't rush to force him to find out the matter.
But Li Changle didn't know that his true identity had been known by Li Deyi, and he still ran to Li Deyi every day to "train", which was actually playing.
After knowing that Li Changle was a woman, Li Deyi relaxed his requirements for her, and no longer laughed at her for being weak, like a little girl. is originally a little girl, and it is normal to be weaker, and she no longer asks for her like she asks Zhu Biao.
Li Changle found that Li Deyi's attitude towards herself has been significantly better recently, and she even deliberately connived, and she has been secretly beautiful in her heart for a long time. Until Liu An couldn't help but puncture her sweet dream: "Your Highness, the deputy head of the regiment still doesn't know that you are a daughter." ”
Li Changle froze there for a moment, but the next day, she still came to play with Li Deyi happily, as if she was fine.
As soon as Li Deyi finished the queue with Zhu Biao, a herald came to report: "The envoy of King Han has arrived, please go to the deputy head of the regiment." ”
"Let's go, Zhu Biao, follow me to meet this envoy of the King of Han."
Li Changle hurriedly said, "I'll go too!" ”
Li Deyi took the two of them to the city mansion, which had been set up as the regiment headquarters by the head of Xiao Liu.
Entering the door, the herald came with a sentence from his senior brother: "Look and talk." "Captain Xiao Liu believes that his junior brother will not suffer, so he didn't waste his saliva at all.
Li Deyi went straight to see the envoy of the Han king.
Zhang Zifang was dressed in the customs of Xu Huai Province, with a deep coat in curved clothes, a high Confucian crown on his head, and clogs at his feet. Zhang Zifang stood quietly beside the ox cart, but he had his own bearing, which made people dare not underestimate him.
After meeting, Li Deyi opened his mouth and said: "I am the deputy head of the Dingbei Garrison Regiment, do you have something to do here?" ”
Zhang Zifang didn't expect the deputy head of the regiment to speak in such a way, and it sounded even wilder than Liu Lai, the king of Han. Fortunately, he reacted in time, hurriedly stood up and bowed, and said: "Weichen Zhang Zifang, on the order of the King of Han, came to discuss with the Dingbei garrison to form an alliance to discuss the matter of the Liao State. ”
"Hey! This Liu Laixing! Go on the road! Save me a lot of trouble. Say, how many soldiers and horses can your Han King produce? The conditions I gave him were the same as those of the Pingtang Kingdom and the Pingming Kingdom. I have always been fair and impartial in my work, and I respect each other. Li Deyi said bluntly.
Now Zhang Zifang was directly stupid: "Isn't the script like this?!" Deputy head of the regiment, you should look down on King Han and refuse to agree, and then I took the opportunity to show off my lips and tongue, and talked nonsense. No, no, it's a vertical and horizontal struggle, with a three-inch tongue to persuade the deputy head of the regiment, and then you happily agreed to form an alliance with the King of Han. This script in my hand looks like this. Director, don't you always change the script on the fly, okay? ”
"Hey, hey. This envoy Zhang, wake up? I just talked to you! ”
Zhang Zifang woke up again, regained his senses, and began to formally negotiate with Li Deyi. (To be continued.) )
