Chapter 404: Wooing Chai Yanping
Gao Huan remembered who Chai Yanping was, so he said, "Aren't you talking about the young general who escorted Yuwendao?" Yang Kan also nodded and said, "That's right, the person the king said is Chai Yanping." "Gao Huan said with a sense www.biquge.info of understanding: "This person seems to be very elegant in conversation and demeanor, very general-like, and very young and in his early twenties. It seems that it is not easy to defeat Xie Sichun. ”
Yang Xiuzhi took the opportunity to say: "Yes, such a talent king must be co-opted for my use." Gao Huan nodded, and said a little worriedly: "Let's win over Gao Bin like this, he will be unhappy, right?" Yang Xiuzhi explained: "The king's words are wrong, as the so-called good birds choose trees to perch, and they are officials for thousands of miles just to eat and wear, how can there be military generals who are born and die not to get ahead?" Gao Bin is just a small state of thorn history, we don't say how much he can do under him, Chai Yanping himself knows. Besides, Gao Bin has made it clear that he has surrendered to us before, and his subordinates are also your subordinates after all, you are just now overstepping the level to call Chai Yanping, there is no problem. ”
Gao Huan looked at Yang Kan again, Yang Kan smiled and nodded at him, and then he was relieved and said, "Okay, come on, General Chai Yanping Chai called." After a while, Chai Yanping came to the big tent, and when he came in, he saw that Chai Yanping was a little afraid, it was the first time he saw such a formal occasion, and the other party was Gao Huan and his staff, it was normal for him to be a little scared unconsciously.
Chai Yanping walked quickly in front of everyone, clasped his fists and saluted Gao Huan: "Chai Yanping greets His Royal Highness King Qi." does not call himself a minister, does not give the courtesy of a monarch and a minister, Gao Huan looks at this young man with backbone and discipline a little differently. said with a smile: "I heard that General Chai defeated Si Chun alone, speaking of which, you are also my hero, I admire a young and promising military general like you." Chai Yanping hurriedly leaned over respectfully and replied: "Defeating Xie Sichun is just a fluke of the last general, and I don't dare to claim to be a hero." ”
Gao Huan smiled and continued: "Now that I encounter something difficult here, General Chai will help me. The dignified de facto ruler of the Eastern Wei Empire actually spoke so politely to an unknown young man, Chai Yanping was a little flattered, and hurriedly said: "His Royal Highness the King of Qi has something to order, and the last general will definitely do it." ”
Gao Huan nodded and said: "Your family Assassin Shi Gao and I have actually been a family for a long time, since you are the messenger he sent, I hope you will also treat us as a family." Chai Yanping felt that the second monk was confused by his words, what did Gao Huan want to do, so he hurriedly followed his words and said: "What His Royal Highness King Qi said is very true, at this moment, we are actually already a family. ”
Gao Huan said: "Okay, since General Chai said so, then I won't go around in circles with you, to be honest, I appreciate the general's talent, and there is a shortage of young and promising generals like you, I hope you can consider whether you can transfer to my account to serve, of course, I don't need to force you in this matter first, secondly, I don't give you any pressure, it's all up to you, and thirdly, your lord doesn't have to worry, I will give him an explanation afterwards." ”
In front of so many people, Gao Huan was about to win over Chai Yanping, and he couldn't get down on his face, because he wanted to agree, but he was afraid that he would be said to be ungrateful for his inflammatory. Seeing this, Yang Kan immediately said: "King, it seems that we can slow down this matter now, but General Zhennan's side is already in a hurry, and the minister thinks it is more appropriate to solve this matter first." ”
Gao Huan was very happy that Yang Kan interrupted his topic, after all, he has been a leader for a long time, and this sense of superiority and dignity has made him adapt to everything according to his own desires, and he cannot tolerate the questioning and obstruction of others. But looking at Chai Yanping's embarrassed appearance, he also knew that this matter seemed to take time for him to digest, so he said with a smile: "Okay, you go back and think about this matter, in short, I think young people still need the stage to experience and polish, the bigger the stage, the bigger the dream created, and the better the stage, the higher the chance of success." He took out a set of chicken soup texts from his previous life in college and told Chai Yanping to listen.
Chai Yanping nodded and said, "The last general, thank His Royal Highness King Qi for his kindness, and I will definitely think about it when I go back." Gao Huan then asked him to step down. Now this matter is put aside for the first time, what he needs to solve urgently is Gao Yue's military food problem. Yang Xiuzhi said that it is impossible to collect grain from Luoyang again, first of all, they will not have an advantage in time, and then where can they find military rations for 50,000 or 60,000 people for half a year in a short period of time? It's a very real question before them.
Yang Kan said: "The treasury of the Southern Liang has actually accumulated some property over the years, and later the rebellion of Hou Jing and the destruction of the Southern Liang country, most of these treasures are missing, in fact, everyone knows where these things flow, and now the wealth of the Sanwu region is by no means comparable to what we imagined, the luxurious life of those rich nobles has made many people in Jiangbei smack, these people have ten thousand gold but are stingy, and now we encounter such a thorny problem, The old man suggested that the king could directly order the rich merchants and nobles to gather the necessary military rations within a time limit, and those who violated it would be punished as collaborating with the enemy. ”
Gao Huan felt very curious about his statement, but after all, he was a person in the future, and he could definitely accept this kind of thing, Yang Xiuzhi was quite worried and said: "Lord Yang, this matter is worried that it will cause a civil uprising, and the Sanwu region has a great resistance to our rule. ”
Gao Huan waved his hand and said: "I'm not afraid, I'm not worried about what they can do about this matter, in short, let's do what we have to do first, if someone really wants to take the opportunity to rebel, I'm not afraid of him, I don't dare to rectify a few local tyrants and inferior gentry, then I don't have to fight an opponent like Yuwen Hu, and I have long wanted to give them a little color to see if these people who are rich and unkind, and now it's just that this matter is open to them, so that they can also know and know my He Liuhun's means." ”
Yang Kan nodded in approval, and then Murong Shaozong got up and said, "King, do you want me to lead a team to the Sanwu region?" Gao Huan immediately waved his hand and said: "You are my general, and you don't need your slaughtering knife for this kind of trivial matter." I'm going to send someone to deal with these people. He already has a suitable candidate in his heart, and to deal with bad people, he has to send bad officials, and Xu Mingzhi is such a suitable person.
Xu Mingzhi has been doing his own work in Gao Huan Group conscientiously since he came back from the Turkic Department, being modest and cautious, soft-spoken, smooth and proper, in short, more humane than before, but the news that Gao Huan got was that this person had been bought by Ashina Tumen and became an undercover agent and spy sent by the local government.
