Chapter 800: Trading
readx;
Now that the alliance has value, the Holy Lord and the center of course do not care about the past, and even coax and deceive to make good use of it, and when it is worthless, immediately unload the mill and kill the donkey, and never suffer in the future. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biqugeγ info The fact is that this is helpless, it is impossible for the Holy Lord and the center to spend great efforts to cultivate a hidden danger, and while supporting Li Fengyun, they must find ways to contain it to ensure that they will not raise tigers for trouble, and Li Fengyun cannot be naΓ―ve enough not to leave a way back for himself, and he will inevitably use the official support to strengthen himself, and the final result will be to turn against each other and fight against each other.
Cooperation is temporary, confrontation is inevitable, and both sides know it, so this negotiation is very difficult.
Yang Gongdao was full of grievances, and ******** with the help of the credit of recovering Anzhou in exchange for the court's pardon and his innocence, so he didn't expect that there was such a complicated mystery behind the recovery of Anzhou at first, and now he sat on the negotiation table, saw these complicated mysteries, and immediately felt that he had been fooled, and was coaxed and tricked by Li Fengyun into "kidnapping" the warship of the alliance. If you continue to play like this, it is estimated that you will soon meet with the Holy Lord and the Eastern Capital Sword Soldiers.
Yang Gongdao smiled helplessly, "Like you, they are all pawns, small things can be promised, but big things can't be decided." β
Guo Xuan feigned surprise and glanced at Yang Gongdao and asked, "Who can decide on major matters?" Li Zixiong? β
Yang Gongdao heard the mockery in Guo Xuan's words, and his eyes showed coldness, "We are an alliance, similar to the Ahui Alliance of the Xi Clan, the Dahe Alliance of the Khitan people, all major matters are unanimously agreed by the head of the alliance, whether it is the white-haired thief or Li Zixiong, there is no final decision-making power." β
Guo Xuan saw Yang Gongdao's embarrassment and unhappiness, and didn't want to irritate the other party, so he immediately hid the contempt and contempt in his heart, and asked solemnly with a serious face, "Excuse me, what is your alliance called?" β
Yang Gongdao replied without thinking, "Fengyun Alliance." β
Guo Xuan obviously has the intention of sowing discord, whether it is the Xi Alliance or the Khitan Alliance, they all take the strong as the core, if Yang Gongdao is fooled and answers wrongly, and then the official publicity of the Middle Earth will inevitably cause unnecessary contradictions within the alliance. Of course, Yang Gongdao would not be deceived by Guo Xuan's clumsy tricks, but the "sincerity" of the negotiation deliberately created by Guo Xuan before was wiped out in Yang Gongdao's heart in an instant.
"Fengyun Alliance, have courage!" Guo Xuan pretended to praise it, and then said disapprerovitically, "The main forces of the Fengyun Alliance are all outside the fortress, and most of the people who stay in the Flying Fox are old and weak, women and children, and it is difficult to survive, so we are willing to make a promise, as long as the Flying Fox's army is all out of the fortress and no longer a troubled place, we will immediately repatriate all the old and weak women and children to their hometowns, and ensure that they have no worries about their lives." β
Yang Gongdao didn't speak, but he sneered in his heart and didn't believe it at all. Most of the old and weak women and children in the alliance are the families and neighbors of the soldiers, all from both sides of the river, their homes have long been destroyed by floods, and the local counties are also in rebellion, and repatriation to their hometowns is to wait for death. Guo Xuan didn't say this, it was better, as soon as he spoke, Yang Gongdao immediately lost his mind.
The official government does have the sincerity of cooperation, but this sincerity is based on official interests, and the alliance also has the sincerity of cooperation, but this sincerity is based on the interests of the alliance.
Yang Gongdao shook his hand to stop Guo Xuan from continuing, "Don't mention the flying fox anymore, that's not something that someone can decide, you still talk about other conditions, even if all the conditions can't be decided, but so-and-so can bring them back and discuss them by the alliance." β
Guo Xuan's face was embarrassed and hesitant.
"Duan Liushou made it very clear in his letter that our presence outside the Saiwai and our recovery of Anzhou is very beneficial to Middle-earth, and he asks for your full support, and the decision of the Holy Lord and the Central Committee is also very clear, that is, to support us in recovering Anzhou and use our conquest outside the Saiwai to change the situation of the confrontation between the north and the south." Yang Gongdao glanced at Guo Xuan when he said this, and said with a pun, "Although hidden dangers exist and crises are visible, but those are all in the future, very far away, and the top priority is to take Anzhou and control Anzhou, only in this way can the requirements of the Holy Lord and the center be realized, and everyone can share the credit." β
The last sentence is very important, "hit" Guo Xuan's vital point, and the recovery of Anzhou will be able to share the credit, and the solution of the Flying Fox Rebels has nothing to do with him, in this case, why do you have to follow Duan Da's order to link the recovery of Anzhou with the settlement of the Flying Fox Rebels?
In doubt, Yang Gongdao said again, "As Guo Yuanjun, if you make meritorious service, you will inevitably be promoted, how can the Holy Lord let you stay at the border for a long time?" β
A word woke up the dreamer, Gubeikou, a place where birds don't, is not comparable with the prosperous Dongdu at all, if it weren't for the accumulation of meritorious service and the promotion of officials, Guo Xuan would not have run to a barren land to suffer wind and frost anyway. However, this is not what it used to be, his brother Guo Yan is gone, there is no one in the core of the center, and the Holy Lord Rili has long forgotten him, even if he gets the credit for recovering Anzhou and is promoted to the rank of knight, he may not reach the ideal height as he wishes, let alone return to the Eastern Capital to be an official in Beijing.
But there's an opportunity. Yang Gongdao's family background is too prominent, if he says second in the clan, no one dares to say first. Although Yang Xiong, the king of Guande, died of illness last year, Yang Gongren was already the leader of the clan Shaozhuang faction, enough to carry the banner of the clan's political forces, and in terms of the composition of the central core decision-making level, Yang Gongren, the leader of the clan Shaozhuang faction, also needs to fill the position left after the death of Yang Xiong and Yang Da brothers, so it is only a matter of time before Yang Gongren further enters the core decision-making level.
Originally, there was no strict limit on the time of Ding Wei's filial piety, and it was normal to make a comeback under special circumstances, this time it happened that Yang Xuangan rebelled, and the eastern capital was in danger, and Yang Tong, the king of Yue who stayed in the eastern capital, "invited" Yang Gongren to help stick to the Beijing division, and the holy lord was damaged due to the failure of the second eastern crusade to return to the authority, and it was also urgent to increase the number of ministers in the core layer of the center to consolidate and strengthen the imperial power, Yang Gongren was the best candidate, so it is foreseeable that Yang Gongren would not be able to go home to keep filial piety again, and the comeback of love has become a fact, and the holy lord must push the boat along the river, Take advantage of the situation to pull him into the core decision-making level to ensure the clan's voice in the highest decision-making level.
For Guo Xuan, Yang Gongren is unattainable, but if he can seize this opportunity in front of him, if he can get Yang Gongren's support through the "shortcut" of Yang Gongdao, and Yang Gongren will recommend him to the Holy Lord at a critical moment, plus his own network resources, then he will not be promoted to a knighthood after his contributions, and it will be a trivial matter to return to Beijing to take up his post.
Guo Xuan pretended to groan, stroked his beard and said, "It's not a secret, the current situation is very different from what you imagined, there is a restriction on staying behind, and there is the constraint of deputy town Murong Zheng, it is difficult to do anything." If a certain person violates Duan Liuyang and obeys Yin, he will be coerced by the deputy town, on the contrary, if a certain person gives in to the deputy town, he will not be able to give you strong support, and he will really be in a dilemma. Speaking of this, he sighed and said with a pun, "If a certain brother is still alive, how can he let a certain fall into such a predicament?" β
As soon as Yang Gongren heard it, he knew that Guo Xuan was moved by what he said, and put forward conditions. If Yang Gongdao is willing to use his own resources to help him at a critical moment, he will let it go, and he will be able to disobey Duan Dayang and suppress the deputy town Murong Zhengze, and give the alliance the support within his authority to ensure that the alliance recovers Anzhou, and that he can get the credit for recovering Anzhou, and then with this merit, he will be promoted to the rank and knight, return to Beijing to serve, and leave.
This condition is acceptable, and it is just a matter of effort. In fact, relying on Guo's own resources, he can also help Guo Xuan to be promoted to Beijing after his meritorious service, but as Guo Xuan worried, his brother Guo Yan is gone, and now Guo's is respected by Guo Rong, the general of the Left Guard, and Guo's resources are inclined to Guo Rong's house, which may not let him get his wish, so Guo Xuan wants to make a "double insurance" and ask Yang Gongren to help at a critical moment. Now Yang Gongren is the squire of the Ministry of Officials, the deputy chief of the Ministry of Officials, and he is in charge of the assessment and promotion of officials, and when the Holy Lord returns to the Eastern Capital, Yang Gongren is very likely to be promoted to the secretary of the Ministry of Officials and enter the core decision-making level, which will be of greater help to Guo Xuan. Besides, this matter is not illegal at all, Guo Xuan has made meritorious contributions, of course, he has to be promoted, but if there are people at the top to help, the promotion speed will be faster, and he can even arrange a good position "near the water", so for Yang Gongren, this is a trivial matter, and it is just a favor.
"Guo Yuanjun's situation is understandable." Yang Gongdao said, "But if Guo Yuanjun wants to change the current predicament, he must first find an opportunity, once the opportunity comes, seize it, Guo Yuanjun don't say that he reverses the current predicament, even if he is promoted to return to Beijing, it is very possible." β
Guo Xuan secretly rejoiced, but there was a depressed expression on his face, "Gao Sheng returned to Beijing? If a certain brother is here, there is hope to return to Beijing, but now it is a matter of things and people, the world is hot and cold, and it is out of reach. β
Yang Gongdao smiled slightly, "If you can trust so-and-so, so-and-so can make a promise." β
Guo Xuan feigned surprise and bowed solemnly, "Of course I can trust it, so it will annoy Lao Guogong." β
Guogong is Yang Gongren, the Duke of Guanguo, Guo Xuan pointed out directly, that is, he did not give Yang Gongdao the truth to deceive, if the promise was not fulfilled in the future, Yang Gongdao would not be able to find an excuse to get by.
Yang Gongdao also made a solemn promise, and then turned to the topic again, "What other conditions do you have, say them one by one, and if you can make a decision, you will answer immediately, and if you can't make a decision, you will transfer the alliance on your behalf." β
Guo Xuan smiled, shook his hand, and said bluntly, "Adhering to the will of the Holy Lord, and doing your best to support, what conditions do you have, just say, if you can do it, make a decision immediately." β
Guo Xuan's attitude was subverted, and Yang Gongdao was of course overjoyed, and hurriedly thanked him.
