Chapter 659: Anti-General First Army
Chapter 659 Anti-General First Army
"What are you willing to give?" After a long silence, Chen Kefu broke the silence in the cabin.
Hearing this, Feng Wan, who had been holding her heart tightly, breathed a sigh of relief in her heart. She was not afraid of Chen Kefu's conditions, she was afraid that Chen Kefu would directly reject her. As long as you are willing to make a request, it means that there is still something to talk about.
And now, as long as there is a glimmer of hope, she is willing to discuss. If Lingnan was forced by Xiao Yu's persecution, and surrendered to Yang Xuan. Then in the future, it will be difficult for Lingnan to have stability. And she has already determined that Yang Yong's current situation does not have much advantage in winning the world. Bound to Yang Jin's ship early, Lingnan still has too much to pay.
Thinking of this, Feng Wan looked directly into Chen Kefu's eyes and lightly opened her lips, "If Your Highness is willing to help, then in the future, I will follow the example of the Holy Mother to Emperor Taizuwu of the Chen family, and the land of the nineteen counties will be attached to Your Highness from now on, and I will do my best to help His Highness fight for the world." ”
When she said this, Feng Wan's heart was still a little hesitant, and her father just asked her to find an ally. But she didn't say that she wanted to belong to the other party, and now she made such a promise, but she was actually making her own opinion, and she might not even get her father's consent.
Chen Kefu was silent for a moment when he heard this, and finally nodded slightly, but on his handsome face, he couldn't see what he was thinking in his heart.
"What do I have to give?" Chen Kefu asked lightly.
He didn't beat around the bush or say anything, but went straight to the point.
Feng Wan looked at the young man who was smiling slightly, but a trace of nervousness rose in her heart. From the other party's expression, she didn't see the slightest real thought. If one does not answer well, it may be wasted.
Taking a deep breath, she said a little nervously, "We hope that Your Highness can send a fleet of sailors down the southeast coast, go around the sea to the south shore of Lingnan, and send troops to land to support my Lingnan to fight against Xiao Yu." ”
Chen Kefu shook his head gently, and a burst of despair rose in Feng Wan's heart. If Chen Kefu also rejected her, then Lingnan would have no second way except to surrender to Yang Yin.
"His Royal Highness can send civil and military local officials to Lingnan, from the county taishou to the county commanders, county commanders, county lieutenants and other official positions in the following counties, all of which can be appointed by King Chen."
Chen Kefu still didn't say anything.
Feng Wan's white teeth bit her lower lip tightly, and after a while, she spit out a sentence with some difficulty, "The nineteen counties in Lingnan can pay taxes and grain to the imperial court in accordance with the tax system of all parts of Hebei." ”
"Since it was attached to the imperial court, it should have been sent by the imperial court to appoint local officials and collect taxes and money. Could it be that Miss Feng did not include these in the conditions mentioned before? That's not sincere. Chen Kefu said lightly.
Feng Wan let out a long sigh, her brows furrowed, and after that, she couldn't come up with any more conditions. Even what she promised before was already beyond the scope of her rights.
Looking at Feng Wan's helpless appearance, Chen Kefu smiled slightly, "Miss Feng, this king will ask you, the nineteen counties of Lingnan, is it decided by you, the Lingnan holy daughter, or by the Xian family, the leader of the Baiyue clan in Lingnan, or by your father, who is now in charge of the Feng family, and General Feng has the final say?" ”
Feng Wan suddenly understood that Chen Kefu knew very well about Lingnan's affairs, but he thought that he was not familiar with Lingnan far away, but unexpectedly, people had already understood everything. No wonder he has such an attitude, it turns out that he has long decided that he can't be the master, so he doesn't want to waste words with himself. Thinking of this, Feng Wan couldn't help but feel a sense of frustration.
Miss Feng didn't want to say it, and this king also knew that in today's Lingnan, the number one leader is naturally Feng An, the owner of the Feng family. Secondly, it is the leader of the Baiyue Slang clan, that is, your uncle's Xian family, who has a lot of influence. As for Miss Feng, this king said something unkind, you, the Lingnan Holy Maiden you just got, not only can't compare with Our Lady of Lingnan, but even Lingnan Holy Aunt can't compare. Although you are loved by your father, you are the master in such a matter as Lingnan's belonging. ”…,
Feng Wan's face turned red when she heard this, and she couldn't help but be a little annoyed and angry. With such a low profile, he came to ask Chen Kefu for reinforcements, but Chen Kefu not only did not help, but also ridiculed her so much. Thinking that she is in Lingnan, it is not a princess who is better than a princess. Now that he has arrived in the Central Plains, he has tried every means to please Chen Kefu, but he has been snubbed by this, how can he bear it. At that moment, Yu's face was cold, he glared at Chen Kefu, and turned around to leave.
Seeing Feng Wan's slender legs walking out with hurried steps, everyone in the cabin couldn't help laughing. At first, Feng Wan was indeed decent, but later, she was like a coquettish child.
As Feng Wan walked, she heard the laughter behind her, and her face was even more burning, and she couldn't wait to turn around and point at Chen Kefu and scold, and then draw a knife and slash him a few times. It's just that I'm discouraged after all, and I just want to get out of here as soon as possible. The pace quickened a little, but in the middle of the night, although the cabin was lit with butter candles, it was a little dim after all. The pace was fast, but he didn't notice that he was mixed with an object at his feet, and he almost fell down with an exclamation. Although he stabilized his body, a sharp pain came from his ankle, and his foot was sprained.
Chen Kefu had been standing there watching, and when he saw her twisting her foot, he hurriedly asked the guards to help her over.
Feng Wan struggled a few times, but she didn't get rid of the guard, and she had to be helped by him.
"This king just told a few truths, why should Miss Feng be so angry." Chen Kefu said with a smile.
Feng Wan snorted coldly and twisted her head to the side, but she didn't want to pay attention to Chen Kefu.
"Miss Feng, since you are here to ask for reinforcements, you must be sincere. This king just told a few words of truth, you are so angry that you want to leave, but I am afraid that no one in this world is willing to help. ”
"If you don't want to help, why do you say those cool words? Everyone says that Chen Kefu is a hero in the world, but the little woman looks like that. For the sake of the son, he is quick to speak for a while, but puts aside the real interests, isn't this indiscriminate. How can such a person compete for the world. Hmph, it's okay if it doesn't work today, otherwise, after you are defeated in the future, I will have to find the Lord again, wouldn't it be troublesome. Feng Wan also refused to show weakness, since the matter did not work out, this anger could not be in vain.
Lu Shishen shouted, "Presumptuous, how can you be allowed to withdraw from the wilderness here." ”
Chen Kefu waved his hand, "It doesn't have to be like this. He turned his head and looked at Feng Wan again, "Miss Feng, this king will tell you the truth." My Hebei is in the northeast, but your Lingnan is in the southernmost place. Thousands of miles away, long way. You want to ask this king for reinforcements, but one heaven south and one earth north, after all, you can't quench your thirst. This king is really as you say, the water diverter went south. Can artesian ball to Hainan, how much time does it take in between. And after arriving in Hainan, you have to go north and south, through the mountains and mountains, how much time does it take in the meantime? Another one, using warships to transport troops, even if this king is willing to take out half of the naval warships to transport troops, I am afraid that he can only transport 30,000 or 40,000 people. ”
"Hebei soldiers are elite, as long as there are 30,000 or 40,000 people, it is enough." Feng Wan became excited. Xiao Yu is only 100,000 people, and although Lingnan is weak, there are quite a few local soldiers of all ethnic groups who can be gathered. It's just that the Lingnan soldiers and horses are not well armoured, so they dare not fight against them. If you can get Chen Kefu's 30,000 or 40,000 horses, it will be enough to deal with it.
Chen Kefu shook his head, "Miss Feng takes it for granted. It's the end of March, and summer is about to begin. When summer comes, all parts of Lingnan are full of mountains, and most of the soldiers under my command are northerners, and they are not heat-tolerant. When I entered Lingnan in the summer, I was afraid that the water and soil would not be adapted, and not only would I not be able to fight, but these soldiers would have to fold in. This is not Chen Ke's alarmism, the ancient people, lack of medicine. When a northern soldier like this goes to the southern Lingnan to fight, it is very easy to have a plague, and if he doesn't get it right, the whole army will be wiped out. At the beginning, Emperor Wen of Sui conquered Liaodong, and 300,000 troops entered Liao, but before the battle was fought, basically all of them died in the water and soil adaptation and epidemics. …,
When Feng Wan heard this, she couldn't help but be silent.
Seeing her like this, Chen Kefu couldn't bear it.
"Is there no other way? If you can't use the waterway, then take the land route. Now Hebei is under the control of your department, as long as you send troops and horses and climb over the Dabie Mountain, can't you reach Shannan? Feng Wan suddenly said excitedly and loudly.
Chen Kefu still shook his head, "My court didn't have many soldiers and horses in Shandong and Huaibei, but now most of them have been transferred to Hebei to prepare for the battle of Hebei." Now the remaining soldiers and horses to guard Jiangdu and other places are a little reluctant, how to draw troops and horses. Again, even if we can draw out soldiers and horses, but after the Dabie Mountain, it is still Li Mi's sphere of influence. If you want to rescue Lingnan, you must first defeat Li Mi's soldiers and horses. Even if Li Mi's soldiers and horses are defeated, then the reinforcements will inevitably be damaged, and they are tired and tired at that time, and the soldiers and horses are damaged, how can they fight Xiao Yu? ”
"After talking about it for a long time, you're just making an excuse that you don't want to send troops." Feng Wan said disappointedly.
"You're right, this king really doesn't plan to send troops."
"You!"
Looking at her pretty face with anger, Chen Kefu smiled unconsciously, "This king doesn't plan to send troops, but he didn't say that he can't solve the danger of Lingnan." However, since Miss Feng didn't want to hear it, forget it. ”
Feng Wan's hateful teeth itched, but even if there was a glimmer of hope at this time, she couldn't give up. I had to take a long breath, tried my best to suppress the impulse in my heart, forced a smile on my face, and said respectfully, "But there is a glimmer of hope, and I also ask King Chen to help, and the concubine and the fathers of the Lingnan clans will not dare to forget." ”
Lu Shishen had been watching the play from the side, and at this time he was busy interjecting, "Why don't you dare to forget the law?" Is it Miss Feng who promised His Royal Highness King Chen to us? I remember that the Lingnan Feng family intermarried with the Chen family from generation to generation. If the girl marries our King Chen, isn't this the best way to continue the generations of the two races? In this way, the affairs of Lingnan are also our Chen Wang's own family affairs, at that time, do you dare not be unsatisfied. ”
The two guys over there, the Demon King of the Mixed World, Cheng Biting Jin, and the Murder Demon King Luo Shixin, were afraid that they would not mess up, and they also laughed evilly and coaxed together, "That's it, that's it." Our King Chen is such a hero, and the girl will not treat you badly if she marries King Chen. When our King Chen becomes the emperor in the future and sits in the world, how can you be a concubine or a concubine. What are you hesitating about, there is no such shop in this village, in this world, I don't know how many girls want to marry our King Chen, and our King Chen is still unwilling. ”
The three of you, your words, my words, immediately brought the atmosphere in this cabin to another direction. Guo Xiaoke and others are Chen Kefu's henchmen and generals, and they have always been used to being close. At this time, everyone didn't take King Chen's joke seriously, they just laughed, seeing that the woman blushed with shame and wanted to be ashamed.
Chen Kefu also smiled, these people are all people who are used to seeing life and death, and they are all generals, and they have always been vulgar. They are not like Fang Xuanling and other ministers, and the unique closeness between monarchs and ministers is unenviable by others. Chen Kefu has long been accustomed to them, and the men who lead the troops are like this, there are many times of depression on the battlefield, and it is okay to relax at ordinary times.
Feng Wan's hateful silver teeth clenched, wanting to scold them a few words, but she couldn't open her mouth. finally turned his head to look at Chen Kefu, but saw that he was just smiling slightly, which seemed to be an idea behind his back. I was ashamed and angry for a while, so I had to hang my head on my chest.
For a long time, those annoying laughter has not stopped.
Feng Wan paused, raised her head violently, her eyes seemed to breathe fire, and glared at Chen Kefu fiercely, "Is it true that I agree to marry you as they said, and you are willing to agree to help us?" ”
"What?" Chen Kefu couldn't help but be stunned. …,
Lu Shishen said loudly with a wicked smile, "Miss Feng, you speak louder, our prince didn't hear clearly." ”
"I promised to marry you, but you have to help me Lingnan solve Jiang Han's oppressive army. If you don't keep your word, then I will take your head with my own hands. Feng Wan suddenly screamed, as if she had exhausted all her strength.
All of a sudden, everyone in the cabin fell silent.
Lu Shishen and the others looked at each other, and they also felt that their joke seemed to be a little bigger. looked at Chen Kefu for a while, not knowing how it would end. If this matter is reported back to the capital in the future, if it is known by the eldest grandson princess and others, then he will not be scolded to death.
Chen Kefu also reached out and touched his nose, and said with a smile, "Miss Feng, don't take it seriously, it was just a bad joke made by these guys just now." ”
Feng Wan stretched out her jade hand, raised an index finger like a green onion and shook it, and said in a firm tone, "No, it's not a joke. I've just agreed to this, so it's no longer a joke. A gentleman's word, the horse is difficult to chase. What's more, King Chen is the king, and he will reign over the world in the future. Then what comes out is naturally Chrysostom, and it is not a joke. In any case, the Feng and Chen families have been intermarried for generations, and now that I have agreed, this matter has already been decided. ”
As soon as her words fell, the cabin was silent again, and the needle drop could be heard.
Lu Shishen and the others looked at Chen Kefu together, their eyes were full of ridicule, and Chen Kefu, at this time, looked at Feng Wan, who was standing calmly on the side after saying those words, but he was a little stunned
