Chapter 182: Arrogance
Wei Jian!
Hearing this name, the vassals of the Vala kingdom were amazed.
It stands to reason that with their status, they will not know, let alone know Wei Jian. After all, when Wei Jian was at his most beautiful, he was just a small wild country master, and he hadn't been there for long. On the whole, such a person, who can grab a handful with a wave of his hand, is not worth noting at all.
It's like the current court of the Walla Country, in addition to the henchmen and courtiers of the Walla Country, there are also some lords of the surrounding wild countries. They are all people who have their hearts set on the country of Walla, so the relationship between them and the country of Walla is basically a relationship of courtiers, not subservience. With such a relationship, they will never be able to break away from the country of Walla, and can only be a country of vassals. To put it simply, it is to help the lord of the Walla country govern a geography. It's just that they have more rights than some of the ministers of Walla, at least they can raise troops and don't have to care too much about the laws of their subjects.
Having said that, since the outbreak of the Yak incident, all the changes within the Yak subject country have been known by the people around them. The Walla country is no exception, they have long been aware of the changes in the yak subject country, so they have a certain understanding of the internal personnel, the power list, and the people who lead the yak country.
Maybe this understanding is not comprehensive, but the people of Walla think that this is enough.
Wei Jian's name occupies a very important position in the list of spies in the Walla Kingdom. But it's not the position of a Ming Jun, nor is it the position of a capable person, but a humiliated person.
How to say it, Wei Jian is in the Northern Regions, known as the first force, with many soldiers and brave generals. But such a person was taken advantage of, but suffered heavy losses, and was even transferred out of the Northern Imperial City to become a courtier, and finally although he turned the tables and joined the ranks of the rebels, he has always been discriminated against and beaten everywhere. In the end, he was chased by Huang Yun and fled everywhere, with nowhere to settle down. How could everyone present not take a second look at such a person?
However, although they were sneering and ridiculing Wei Jian in their hearts, they did not show it on the surface, because they understood that His Majesty had not yet revealed his scheming and expressed his attitude, and if he expressed his position now, it would be to create trouble for himself. This kind of trouble is very big. If His Majesty doesn't like it, then he is likely to be unlucky, so every courtier, after thinking about it in his heart, began to close his mouth and look at the Emperor of the Walla Kingdom on the dragon chair.
"I think you guys, you already know who Mr. Wei Jian is." The emperor of the Walla country smiled, and then further explained: "Now that our country wants to prepare for the next military operation, then we need a guide, a person who is familiar with the geography of the Yanhuang subject country, only such a person can let our army march quickly in the territory of the Yanhuang subject country, gallop to the frontal battlefield, and achieve the role of containing the second-level subject country of Luanxing." And this guide, I think Mr. Wei Jian is very good, he has been observing the geographical location of the Yanhuang subject country everywhere all his life, I think he should be very familiar with the geographical location of the Yanhuang subject country, as well as the terrain everywhere, with him leading the soldiers and horses, I think he should be able to quickly gallop to the border. ”
After the words of the Emperor of Vala, there was no one present who did not understand. This is the value of Wei Jian, because he is familiar with the geography of the Yanhuang subject country.
However, Wei Jian, who was standing in the audience, was shocked in his heart at this time.
Thinking that when he felt the Mangdang Mountains, he thought that he could escape and wait for the change of time, so that he could go out of the mountain again and conquer the world. However, he never dreamed that in the Mangdang Mountain Range, there was still a cavalry unit of the Yanhuang Subject State waiting.
As soon as Wei Jian led the troops to prepare to climb the mountain, he was attacked by this group of cavalry, with a high and low attitude, an accelerated impact, which suddenly crushed the already exhausted army, and then no matter how hard Wei Jian tried, how he screamed, and how he commanded, he could not gather the army.
The first battle was just a simple battle, and the army led by Wei Jian lost seventy-seven eighty-eight. Wei Jian almost didn't cry at that time, was he going to die here? At this time, one of his generals found a small path that could quickly leave here and leave this place of right and wrong. Therefore, Wei Jian thought twice and agreed to this suggestion, so Wei Jian led his subordinates and his henchmen, taking advantage of the desperate resistance of the army in front, into the trail, and then marched quickly and broke away from the Mangdang Mountains.
However, this is not the end of the matter.
It didn't take long for the cavalry army of the Yanhuang vassal country, relying on its own speed, to pursue it again. At this time, Wei Jian's soldiers were already exhausted, and there was no doubt that they would fall to the ground after a while, and they would not be able to get up at all.
Wei Jian hoped that he could get a respite through negotiations, but unfortunately the other party did not give him a chance at all. As soon as he saw himself, he launched a desperate charge.
However, just when Wei Jian thought that he was going to die, he suddenly looked at a boundary monument, and then his face was happy, and he hurriedly urged the war horse to rush directly over the boundary monument and rush through several grass forests.
Seeing that he was about to be overtaken, he was confronted by a heroic general, and then, under his own pleading, the other party decided to help.
Wei Jian thought to himself that with this general, with the soldiers under him, he should be able to resist the pursuit of the Yanhuang vassal state, right?
Necheng thought, that cavalry force was too fierce, and it crushed the heroic general's subordinates in one fell swoop, and then rushed towards him. At this critical moment, the heroic general made a wise decision, he let the deputy general resist here, and then led some of his personal guards to protect Wei Jian and left the battlefield.
In this way, Wei Jian inexplicably came to the country of Walla and came to Kyoto in the country of Walla. He was even introduced to the palace. All these changes made Wei Jian feel that it was not real.
Could it be that fate is beginning to change direction, and it is time for it to run again?
But as he thought about it again, Wei Jian suddenly understood that what kind of luck was just a pawn of some forces.
After the conversation between the courtiers of the Vala Kingdom just now, Wei Jian had already understood that the other party had long known that he would choose to flee into his own territory, so he deliberately sent an army to meet him there. The only surprise was that the army of the Yanhuang Kingdom came too quickly, so the Walla Kingdom lost a little soldier.
However, this loss is not very large for the Walla country, so they don't care.
"Mr. Wei Jian, I don't know what you think, the Yanhuang subject state can support it, but the attack of the Luanxing second-level subject state is not?" An old courtier staggered to his feet at this time and asked.
"Can't!" Wei Jian said without thinking at all.
"Why?"
"There is no reason why the ability of the first-level subject state cannot compete with the second-level subject state at all. What's more, today's Yanhuang subordinate country is in ruins, and it has no ability to fight again. If Luan Xing arrives, then even if the Yanhuang Subordinate State has the ability, the people in his territory do not have the confidence and ability to fight. Wei Jian said plainly.
"So how long do you think the Yanhuang subject country can defend at least?"
"I'm not Huang Yun, so I don't know." Wei Jian thought for a moment and said, "But if I were him, I would definitely block it for a while, and then negotiate with the second-level subject state of Luanxing." If the negotiation goes well, then let the border come in, let Luan Xing come in, and although he will be a minister at that time, he still has troops in hand, then everything is worth it. ”
Wei Jian's remarks are actually very much in line with the situation in Walla. Today's Walla country can be preserved because His Majesty knows how to know things. If the Walla Kingdom at that time continued to fight with Luan Xing, then the Walla Kingdom would definitely be destroyed and would not be preserved at all.
"Mr. Wei Jian, in your opinion, if I send troops into the Yanhuang subject country if I send troops into the Yanhuang country, I don't know if it will be smooth?" Another courtier stood up and asked.
"No country, going into another, will not go well." Wei Jian used his own thinking to explain at this time: "Today's Yanhuang subject country has just established a new subject country, everything is in a state of pending development, so it is very taboo, any country invades and enters, so if you want to enter the Yanhuang subject country, you don't pay a certain price, or if there are any special circumstances, then it is impossible." ”
"Then in your opinion, what price does my country need to pay if we want to enter the Yanhuang subject country?" A military general.
"With the ability of the Walla country, in fact, as long as the army presses the border and creates a tense situation, I think the Yanhuang subject country will take the initiative to negotiate with us." Wei Jian touched his beard, and then said indifferently: "But I believe that the Walla country is not like a bully, if you want to negotiate peacefully, then you should enter as an aid country." At that time, even if the Yanhuang subject country blocks it, I believe that the citizens in the Yanhuang subject country will not agree. ”
"Good!" The emperor of the Vala Kingdom cut off a piece of mutton with a knife at this time, put it in the innermost and praised: "Mr. Wei Jian is really powerful, I don't know Mr. Wei Jian, what do you plan to do in the future?" ”
"Wei is now just a lost dog, and he has nowhere to live. If Your Majesty is willing to accept the villain, the villain is willing to take root in the country of Walla, and swear allegiance to His Majesty, saddle up for His Majesty. Wei Jian knelt directly on the ground and said.
"Well... Well, if you can get the help of Mr. Wei Jian, then you will definitely be like a fish in water. When he said that he swept away the Yanhuang subordinate country, he would definitely help Wei Aiqing to restore the country. The Emperor of Vala said with a flicker.
However, the flicker in Valaguo's eyes did not enter Wei Jian's eyes, because Wei Jian lowered his head at this time, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
"Ladies and gentlemen, a few days ago, our envoy entered the territory of the Yanhuang vassal country. According to my arrangement, the envoy will appear in the imperial city of the Yanhuang vassal kingdom and even in the streets and alleys as a gesture of assistance. At that time, the identity and status of my Walla country will definitely be well-known throughout the Yanhuang subject country. When the time comes, when our army goes on the expedition, I believe that the people of the Yanhuang subject country will definitely welcome it. The Emperor of the Kingdom of Vala said in high spirits.
There was no way, because he was one step ahead of Wei Jian and took into account the matter of the donor country. It can be seen that he is many times smarter than Wei Jian. And his subordinates were very interested in Wei Jian's plan. In other words, for the first time, the emperor of the country of Vala made such a wise decision without consulting his courtiers. This is simply a rare thing for him.
"Your Majesty is wise."
"Your Majesty can count this point a few days ago, it is simply a god in the world."
"Haha, Your Majesty is wiser than the gods."
“……”
There was a sound of praise all around, which made the emperor of the Walla country a little fluttering. Therefore, the emperor of the Vala Kingdom waved his hand and asked the eunuch behind him to help Wei Jian get a table and chair, so that he could be at the end of the court and enjoy himself and others.
This flattered Wei Jian, and hurriedly thanked him, and then half-pushed and half-pushed, and achieved the end.
However, among the people present, there were also a few people who looked more uneasy, but because the emperor of the Walla country was now in a happy stage, they did not immediately express their uneasiness in their hearts.
…… When the court of the Vala Kingdom celebrated, the Yanhuang subject country was silent.
Huang Yun, who was sitting on the dragon chair and was discussing civil affairs with his subordinates, suddenly raised his head and looked at the outside of the hall.
Just one hour ago, Limo's scouts entered the imperial city again and delivered the latest information. Accompanied by Limo, the envoys of the Vala Kingdom have entered the sphere of influence of the Imperial City.
After hearing the news, Huang Yun knew that he couldn't slack off, at least on the surface, he had to be enthusiastic. Therefore, Huang Yun immediately ordered Huang Sideburns to immediately lead some etiquette officials to greet him.
Now that an hour has passed, Huang Sideburns has received an envoy from the Walla Kingdom, and it is estimated that he is already on his way back to the Imperial City.
"Is Your Majesty worried about the emissaries of the Walla Nation?" Shushanhe took a step forward.
"Yes, the country of Vala will definitely not be kind enough to enter my Yanhuang subject country. Today's Yanhuang country is in ruins, and they will definitely derive more twists and turns. Huang Yun sighed, then looked at the surrounding civil and military affairs: "Now that the army and government affairs are just on the right track, problems may arise at any time." So I don't yearn for someone to jump out at this time to affect the layout of our army and the people. ”
"Then why did Your Majesty send Lord Yellow Sideburns to meet the envoy of the Vala Kingdom?" Shushan shines with wisdom.
"Quite simply, I want to see what the country of Vala has in mind. What's more, the other party has already entered our border, can I still drive him back? If I had done that, I'm afraid that the war would have already been fought by now, and the two sides would have started a big war. Huang Yun smiled bitterly, this was the first time Huang Yun revealed his inner thoughts.
"Your Majesty, in my opinion, the other party's arrival this time is likely to be a good thing." Shu Shanhe said with a smile.
"Shu Aiqing came quickly." Huang Yun said urgently.
"The arrival of the envoy of the Vala country is, firstly, to put pressure on our country, and to demand compensation from our country for the fact that the Grand Governor of Limo mistakenly killed the Wala [***] soldier. It is also possible to use this excuse to annex the territories in the northwest of our country. The second is to go to our country, wanting to show the strength of the Walla country and force us to take refuge. As for the three, it is very likely that Luan Xing is about to send troops, and the Walla Kingdom has learned the news and wants to use my Yanhuang subject country as a shield. ”
"Shu Aiqing, explain the third article in detail." When Huang Yun heard this third article, he immediately thought about something, so he took the initiative to ask.
"The Kingdom of Vala and Luan Xing have been at war for several years, and I believe that both sides must have laid a lot of chess pieces or spies in each other's territory. And Luan Xing knows that the Yak is destroyed, then they will definitely find a way to regain the territory of the Yak Dependent Country, and create a new chess piece from the beginning, so that it can continue to provide benefits and resources for Luan Xing. And now my Yanhuang subordinate country is in ruins, and it is just in the stage of poverty, and the current Luanxing, if he attacks my country, then he will definitely be able to take my country by surprise. It doesn't take too many troops to win in one battle, which is definitely a good thing for Luan Xing, then they will definitely not give up this opportunity. "And the country of Vala and Luan Xing are enemies, so naturally they will not let go of the opportunity to deal with Luan Xing, so they will definitely send troops to help our country resist. However, it is very likely that the Vala Kingdom has a second thought, that is, after resisting Luan Xing, it is taking the opportunity to annex my Yanhuang subject country. Shu Shanhe said a lot in one breath.
Huang Yun thought for a while, then nodded and said: "Ming said that the three generals of Meng Aniu will return, and when the time comes, they will immediately start arranging. ”
Although Huang Yun did not express his position directly, everyone present understood that Huang Yun had believed Shu Shanhe's words.
Although some people don't believe in Shu Shanhe's words very much, Huang Yun has already acquiesced at this time, so he doesn't dare to object.
It's in the hall, when everyone is thinking in their hearts. Huang Sideburns, who had left, under the guidance of the eunuch, returned to the council hall again, and said to Huang Yun: "Your Majesty, Wei Chen is fortunate to live up to his life, and has successfully received the envoy of the Walla Kingdom, and now the envoy of the Walla Kingdom is waiting outside the door. ”
"Oh, then go and bring him in!" Huang Yun stretched and said, "I really want to hear what he has to say?" ”
"It's just Your Majesty......!" Huang Sideburns wanted to say something, but suddenly stopped.
"There's nothing to say, but it's okay to say it." Huang Yun didn't care.
"Your Majesty's envoy to the Walla country is very arrogant, and he has not said a word to the vassal country all the way back and forth. In his eyes, Weichen seems to be a small grass, which is not worth mentioning. After entering the Imperial City, the envoy of the Kingdom of Vala finally spoke the first words......"
"What did he say?" Huang Yun twisted his eyebrows and said.
He said that the Yanhuang country really deserved to be born in a wild country, and he didn't know how to respect it at all. Seeing the arrival of the envoy from Shangguo, the emperor did not take the initiative to come out to greet him, which was simply rude. A trace of cold sweat appeared on his cheeks, and then he continued: "Now the envoy of the country of Vala, standing outside the palace, does not move a step, saying that His Majesty will not greet him, and he will stand there and not leave. ”
