Chapter 193: Heaven Returns to Beijing
Under Yue Zhongqi's arrangement, the Youzhou Flying Tiger Army returned to Youzhou on the battleship of the Northern Fleet of the Flying Tiger Legion. Niu Tianci and Li Lie returned to Nanyi, and after arranging all kinds of things, Tianci led 50,000 Ganzhou iron horsemen to return to Ganzhou along Pingnan Road.
Pingnan Road is the road from Ganzhou to Jiangnan discovered by Li Lie, and now this road is already full of traffic, with post stations every 100 miles, which is convenient for passing caravans and government messengers to stay. Rice, fruits, spices, jewelry, and other specialties from Nanyi are also sent from Pyongnam-do to the northwest, and the specialties from the northwest are also sent to the south for trading. In just a few months, Pingnan Road, which used to be inaccessible, has become an important business route connecting the northwest and Jiangnan, and its trading volume has almost reached the level of Dayan and Manggul trading volume, and Niu Tianci's group has another financial road that can bring stable and rich income.
When Tianci hurried all the way to Ganzhou, Sima Changfeng was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot. Emperor Xingsheng has already issued three holy decrees to recruit Niu Tianci to return to Beijing, and it is said that the fourth will is already on the way. Ling Wuwu, the governor of the Northwest Pacification Prefecture, was ready to support his troops and stand on his own feet and fight against the imperial court. At this time, Niu Tianci came back, and he returned with a great victory, and everyone put their hearts in their stomachs.
Niu Tianci coaxed and scared Sima Changfeng to stay in Ganzhou and replace Li Lie as the overseer of Ganzhou. In his heart, Sima Changfeng and Gao Pijiang are already equivalent to Wang Meng and Xiaoxian. In just a few months, the Northwest Army of the Flying Tiger Legion under the command of the Governor of the Northwest Appeasement Prefecture has 500,000 troops, and they are all well-trained elites, of which as many as ninety percent have been on the battlefield. The combat style of the Northwest Army of the Flying Tiger Legion is inherited from the two strong armies of the Northern Army and the Flying Tiger Legion, and its combat power is naturally extraordinary. To put it mildly, with the strength of the Northwest Army of the Flying Tiger Legion alone, Niu Tianci can sweep through the north of Dayan and dominate the country. How can such an important place not be guarded by someone who is at ease with you?
Tianci convened the highest military and political meeting of the Northwest Pacification Governorate in Shaanzhou, at which Niu Tianci once again reiterated what he had said to Yue Zhongqi, but changed the location to the northwest. At the Northwest Military and Political Conference, all subordinates uniformly called Niu Tianci the lord, and this title was used until Niu Tianci recognized his ancestors and returned to his ancestors, and ascended the throne as the emperor. From the title of Niu Tianci, you can clearly distinguish the identities of these people. The people who are called lords are all future important ministers of the DPRK and military and political officials. The people who call the head of the family are all retainers who call themselves Niu Tianci, mainly including the members of Leng Feng.
These titles do not indicate intimacy, but rather distinguish between inside and outside. Everyone recognizes this distinction, because everyone knows that Niu Tianci will eventually reach a height that others cannot reach, and this pattern naturally cannot be divided according to common sense.
After the meeting, Ling Wuwu led Niu Tianci to a secret room and introduced a person to Niu Tianci. The man had white skin, blue eyes and blonde hair, and when the man saw Niu Tianci coming in, he quickly stood up and greeted him.
"Your Excellency Marquis Niu Tianci, your prestige has spread to Manggul, and His Majesty our King has great respect for you. Your Majesty believes that only Your Excellency has the ability to revitalize Dayan. If Your Excellency wishes, we will help and support Your Excellency as we did with Marshal Yan Chengyu. If Your Excellency agrees, we will become allies and brothers with You, just like the relationship between Dayan and Mangul before. ”
"His Majesty's proposal of your king has touched Ben Shuai very much, and Ben Shuai also wants to thank Manggul for his selfless assistance to Dayan Xicheng in times of crisis. This friendship is something that we both desperately need. So Ben Shuai agreed to form an alliance and brotherly partnership with Manggul, and let us join hands against our common enemy. ”
"God, this is simply wonderful. Now it seems that God has guided me to come to You in Almatan, and this is really the wisest choice for me. Your Excellency can see farther and see clearly than Emperor Dayan. He is also 10,000 times wiser than him, and I believe that after we form an alliance, we will continue to write a new chapter in the friendship between Manggul and Dayan. ”
"Your Excellency Almutan, Ben Shuai corrected one of your statements, we established this relationship, not to continue to write a new chapter in the friendship between Dayan and Manggul, but to open a new chapter in the friendship between me and Manggul."
Almatan blinked, as if to understand, his eyes radiating a fine light, and his attitude was more respectful.
"Your Excellency, you understand exactly what you mean, Almatan. This Great Yan River should be controlled by people like you, and I believe that my Majesty will think the same way. ”
"Almatan, my friend, I beg you to convey to your Majesty the King that there is no need for anything written between us, and that the promise I made to my friend will be fulfilled. Say, what does Manggul need? ”
"Your Excellency, now that the Ronglu has cut off the grassland, I have been interrogated everywhere when I pass through the grassland as an envoy, which is a challenge to the dignity of our Manggul. I have come to your excellency in the hope that you will be able to recover the grassland as soon as possible and open up trade routes, which will be beneficial to both sides. We look forward to working alongside you. ”
"Everything is not a problem, but it will take time."
"I understand. Your Excellency, can I discuss specific matters with your designated representative? ”
"Yes, this is Ouyang Xiu, he can negotiate with you on my behalf. Remember, whatever you both talk about, be open and honest. Remember, Manggul will always be a friend and brother of the Ox godsend. ”
Almatan's eyes were moist, and he bowed deeply to Niu Tianci.
"Your Excellency, please receive the respect of Almatan. In Mukden, we have been treated unfairly, which has caused a rift in our friendship with Dayan. But since I met Your Excellency, I believe that only Your Excellency, and only Your Excellency, will have the right to earn the respect of Manggul. Your Excellency, I pledge in God's name that from now on, everything between Manggul and Your Excellency will be open and fair, and we look forward to the day when Your Excellency will reach the top. ”
After finishing speaking, Almatan bowed to Niu Tianci again, and then went to another room with Ouyang Xiu to discuss carefully.
After looking at Niu Tianci for a long time, Ling Wuwu slowly knelt on the ground. Tianci was shocked by Ling Wuwu's actions, and hurriedly mixed Ling Wuwu.
"Why is my uncle like this, he has tormented the younger generation."
"Tianci, you are a disciple of Chengyu, but you are really like Brother Chengyu, if you are the descendant of the Yan family, how good it would be. The old man's kneeling just now was not kneeling to you, but surrendering to Dayan's future. Lord, although the old man is old, he can still crisscross the battlefield, please give me this opportunity. ”
"Uncle, you're not old at all. There will be this opportunity, and I ask my uncle to guard the northwest for me. In the future, we will fight in the east and west, and lay the foundation for recovering the lost territory and sweeping away the Celestial Wolf Khanate. ”
"Okay, that's a deal."
The two big hands were clasped tightly together, one old and one young looked at each other and smiled, from this moment on, Ling Wuwu sincerely surrendered to Niu Tianci and became the backbone of Niu Tianci's power group.
Niu Tianci led the Flying Tiger Legion back to Fengtian, and happened to meet Huang Xin, the eunuch of the herald, when passing through Jinyang. When Huang Xin saw Niu Tianci, he ran to the Tianci horse in surprise and fell to his knees with a pop.
"Niu Hou Wow, you can come back, Your Majesty is in a hurry, ask eight times a day. Niu Hou, you can go back to Beijing with our family, the army can let others take you back to Youzhou, let's leave quickly, don't dare to delay any longer. ”
"Isn't it just for me to be stationed in the four states to guard against the captives? Is there a new purpose? ”
"There is no new will, but Your Majesty wants to see you soon. Even the Emperor Taishang is urging, you will know when you go back. ”
Heaven ordered Ouyang Xiu to temporarily lead the army back to Youzhou, and he took his own guards to rush to Fengtian with Huang Xin's fast horse. On the way, Niu Tianci finally knew what Long Xingrong was doing in a hurry to find himself back.
It turned out that Long Xingrong asked Su Meiduo for marriage, and Su Meiduo proposed that the founding ceremony of the Heavenly Wolf Khanate was about to be held, if His Majesty the Great Yan Emperor could come in person, it would mean that Long Xingrong really wanted to reconcile with the Heavenly Wolf Khanate, and also said that Long Xingrong really liked Su Meiduo. Of course, Long Xingrong would not shirk this, but the courtiers were all against it. The Heavenly Wolf Khanate can use various means to recapture the grasslands, and it will inevitably continue to deal with Great Yan by any means. Long Xingrong is now the emperor's honor, how can he take the initiative to send it to the door, if the Heavenly Wolf Khanate turns its face and denies people, what should it do if Long Xingrong is detained.
Long Xingrong was not without this concern, so he hurriedly called Niu Tianci back just to let Niu Tianci protect himself. After Niu Tianci knew that Long Xingrong was in a hurry to find himself back for this matter, the anger in his heart was even stronger. He decided that this time no matter what, he couldn't let Long Xingrong come by his own temperament, and if it continued like this, this big Yan Jiangshan was afraid that he would be swallowed into his stomach by those wolf cubs.
Without Huang Xin's urging, Niu Tianci urged Ma Rufei to rush back to Fengtian, and just when the city gate was about to close, Niu Tianci rushed into Fengtian City with his generals and returned to Cangshan Houfu.
Looking at Niu Tianci who suddenly appeared in front of her, Wen Rou'er couldn't believe her eyes, and her soft eyes carefully caressed Tianci's face. Tianci already had a short beard on his chin, and he gently rubbed Wen'er's hand with his chin, which felt a little prickly and itchy, making Wen'er'er's heart jump like a deer.
"Rou'er, I'm back, did you miss me?"
"Yes, can people do anything else besides miss you?"
Wen Rou'er plunged into Tianci's arms, hugging Tianci's waist and not letting go.
cough cough cough, a light cough sound, Tianci looked up suddenly, and saw Long Xingrong standing in front of them.
"Hehehe, I'm not very unpleasant. Big brother, it's good for you to come back, I still need my eldest brother's help in this matter. ”
Niu Tianci put one hand around Wen Wen'er's waist, looked at Long Xingrong with a smile and said, "Your Majesty, are you sincere this time?" ”
Long Xingrong nodded, a flush welling up on his face. Wen Wen'er secretly pinched Niu Tianci's arm with her hand, which was to remind Niu Tianci to pay attention to ways and means. Wen Rou'er naturally knows Niu Tianci's character, and even what each of his expressions means, Wen Rou'er can guess eight or nine. Don't look at Niu Tianci is laughing now, but the rising anger in his heart has been felt by Wen Wen'er, and it can be known from Tianci's tense iron-like muscles that Niu Tianci is now trying to control himself from exploding.
"My husband has just come back, I will go to the bath and change my clothes first, Rou'er has already prepared a wine banquet, and I will talk to Your Majesty after my husband has finished bathing. Your Majesty, Rou'er confesses her guilt, and asks Your Majesty to stay for a while. ”
"Hahaha, this is natural, I didn't expect Sister Wen to be in a hurry."
Long Xingrong turned around and went to the living room with a smile, and gently pulled Niu Tianci to the bathroom.
"What the hell is going on?"
Su Meiduo put forward a new request, asking Dayan to return the heads of the Great Khan of Beirong, Naotu and Hulei. asked His Majesty to take him to Ningyuan, and he also asked you to escort him personally. ”
"He agreed?"
Wen Wen'er looked at Niu Tianci worriedly, and nodded after a long time.
Hmph, Niu Tianci let out a penetrating sneer. (To be continued.) )
