Chapter 310: Desperate Survival
The Shence Army recruited sergeants on a large scale, and on the surface, it seemed that Tian Lingzi's strength had increased, but it was Yang Fugong who really benefited.
Yang Fugong carried the emperor's handwritten decree and began to lobby the northern feudal towns, this matter is not simple at all, far from being as beautiful as Yang Fugong thought at the beginning, he first found Wang Mei, the envoy of the quiet and difficult festival.
Qin Wang's matter, don't dare to shout everywhere, Yang Fugong only after seeing Wang Mei herself, dare to say such a major thing, waited for a long time to see Wang Mei, but unfortunately the answer made Yang Fugong extremely disappointed, Wang Mei had no interest in the emperor's holy decree at all, after Yang Fugong made a straightforward request, vaguely fooled the past, without any reply and statement.
Disappointed Yang Fugong, and then found Hedong Jiedu to make Li Keyong, it should be said that Li Keyong's relationship with the Tang royal family is not ordinary, Li Keyong was originally from Shatuo, because he and his father Li Guochang established a meritorious career together, and was given the surname Li by the emperor. However, Li Keyong's reply was similar to Wang Mei's, but Li Keyong's personality was more impatient, and he refused Yang Fugong's request without hesitation, making Yang Fugong lose face.
found two feudal towns in a row, the lobbying failed, Yang Fugong also understood a truth, these feudal towns are not the master of the rabbit and the eagle, if they can't get the actual benefits, they would rather protect themselves, in fact, this situation has happened before, when the Huangchao rebelled, the soldiers approached the eastern capital Luoyang, and in desperation, the emperor once ordered to mobilize the feudal towns to fight against the Huangchao, and no one paid attention to it at all.
What Yang Fugong is holding in his hand is just a holy decree written by the emperor himself, and he is not even stamped with a jade seal, such a holy decree is of little use in the eyes of the feudal towns, and all the feudal towns know that it is Tian Lingzi who really controls the situation in the capital, and Yang Fugong can get such a holy decree. Perhaps it is the result of the power struggle between the eunuchs, who is willing to get involved in such a battle, not to mention the loss of the army, will not get any benefits.
Many feudal towns also have a deep worry, that is, Li Rupei, the blessed king of the south, it is said that when such a thing happened in the capital, Li Rupei should have come forward first, why didn't the emperor and Yang Fugong turn to Li Rupei for help, but went to the north to find the feudal town.
Nearly three months have passed, and Yang Fugong has not made any achievements. The feudal towns were not willing to send troops at all.
If this situation continues, Yang Fugong will have no hope.
After Yang Fugong understood everything, he also felt desperate, he couldn't make a statement, and he might not be able to fulfill his statement, these feudal towns are not ordinary people, his statement is difficult to implement, and he can't get out of it in the end.
Just when Yang Fugong felt hopeless, Tian Lingzi helped him.
Tian Lingzi recruited sergeants to expand the Shence army. Soon it spread to the north, and many feudal towns began to attach great importance to this matter, and if the power of the Shence Army was strong, it would pose a great threat to the northern feudal towns. Tian Lingzi's bold move is quite a bit of a challenge to many feudal towns.
At this time, Zhu Mei, Li Keyong and others thought of Yang Fugong.
What the northern feudal towns needed was a weak court in order to serve their fundamental interests. Not to mention the strength of the Divine Command Army, even the strength of the Iron Blood Army has once attracted their attention. After all, Li Rupei, the commander of the Iron Army, is a son of the Li Tang royal family, but fortunately, the Iron Blood Army has always been in the south and has not interfered in the affairs of the north.
This is equivalent to Tian Lingzi helping Yang Fugong, if Tian Lingzi maintains the status quo, Yang Fugong is hopeless, the northern feudal towns will not make a move, Yang Fugong, who has fallen into despair, is even ready to leave the north and go to Xiangyang, he thinks very seriously, ask for help from His Royal Highness King Fu, His Royal Highness King Fu will definitely make a move, in case His Royal Highness King Fu makes a move, he is not willing to stay in the capital, wouldn't he still have a chance.
Even in the north, there are many young people who are willing to go to the capital and join the Shence army, you must know that the salary of the sergeant of the Shence army is three times that of the ordinary army, and they can also patrol in the capital, and even have the opportunity to enter the palace, which is an irresistible temptation for the children of ordinary people.
The first thing Yang Fugong saw was Li Keyong, the envoy of Hedong Jiedu.
When he saw Li Keyong, Yang Fugong was disheartened, if Li Keyong was unwilling to make any effort, just thinking about what position the emperor could canonize, he couldn't agree, and he couldn't do it at all, according to his identity, after entering the capital, what he was waiting for was Tian Lingzi's liquidation, and the chance of saving his life was slim.
Yang Fugong never imagined that Li Keyong would actually agree to enter King Qin.
This made Yang Fugong think that he was dreaming.
Yang Fugong did not express his position immediately, and after returning to his residence, the two people sent by Song Wentong told him that Tian Lingzi was vigorously expanding the Shence army in the capital, expanding from the original forty-six capitals to eighty capitals, and the number of troops increased to 80,000.
Yang Fugong couldn't help but thank the sky, he finally knew why Li Keyong took the initiative to contact, these northern feudal towns would never want to see the powerful Shence army, that would be a huge threat to them, only by letting the imperial court continue to be weak, the northern feudal towns can do whatever they want.
There are also a lot of contradictions between the northern feudal towns, in the past, the imperial court controlled the feudal towns in the north, which was to use the contradictions between the feudal towns to make the feudal towns fight back and forth, consuming strength, although the feudal towns knew, they were helpless, this time the Shence army suddenly began to expand, and the strength must have been greatly improved, if the Shence army meddled in the contradictions between the feudal towns, it would be the biggest threat to many feudal towns in the north.
Of course, if you can enter the king of Jingqin and gain the trust of the emperor, it will be different, you can use the power of the Shence army, or the power of the imperial court, to attack and exterminate those relatively weak feudal towns, expand your own territory and strength, and firmly gain a foothold in the north. At least let his own territory not be coveted by the Shence Army.
Yang Fugong completely analyzed the thoughts of the northern feudal towns, and at this time, he had the upper hand, and the northern feudal towns demanded him.
Sure enough, Wang Mei also sent out an envoy, found Yang Fugong, and put forward a request to enter the king of Beijing Qin, and did not attach any conditions, and then, Yang Fugong had contacted Wang Chongrong, the envoy of the Hezhong Jiedu, Li Changfu, the envoy of the Youzhou Jiedu, Li Keju and others, all sent out envoys to find Yang Fugong and implore the king of Jingqin.
The sense of smell of the feudal towns is very keen, otherwise they would not have become feudal towns.
Yang Fugong seized the opportunity, if these jiedu envoys want to enter the king of Jingqin, they must have the emperor's holy decree, otherwise it will be a rebellion, and they will not get any benefits, not to mention, they may encounter the encirclement and suppression of other jiedu envoys and the blow of the Shence army, all of which are in Yang Fugong's hands.
Yang Fugong is also very smart, he doesn't always fish, these feudal towns are very arrogant, and their temper is also very irritable.
After careful consideration, Yang Fugong still adhered to his previous opinions, and let Wang Mei be the envoy of Jingnan Jiedu, Li Keyong of Hedong Jiedu, Wang Chongrong of Hezhong Jiedu, Li Changfu of Fengxiang Jiedu and Li Keju of Youzhou Jiedu to enter Jingqin Wang.
These five feudal towns, among the many feudal towns, the strength is the most powerful, and what is even more rare is that the five feudal towns are not very united because of their strong strength, and there are many contradictions between each other, and even direct friction, for example, the most powerful Hedong Jiedu makes Li Keyong, who has been attacked by Wang Mei, Li Changfu and Wang Chongrong, and almost perished.
Only when these five feudal towns all led troops into Chang'an Qinwang could they supervise each other.
It is absolutely impossible to let any feudal town enter the king of Jingqin alone, and there may even be a situation where the emperor is blackmailed to order the princes, and after the success of this feudal town Qinwang, it is very likely to be dominant, so that Yang Fugong has no chance.
Yang Fugong replied directly to Li Keyong, and at the same time replied to the envoys sent by Wang Mei, Wang Chongrong, Li Changfu and Li Keju, the so-called reply was to give them the emperor's holy decree.
After doing these things, Yang Fugong's heart settled down, and now it is not him who is anxious, but Li Keyong and others, since he wants to enter the king of Jingqin, there must be too many things to discuss, and the five feudal towns are afraid that they will argue for a long time about this matter, which involves the distribution of interests, the issue of getting benefits from the emperor, and the future development of the feudal towns.
Yang Fugong is not good at stubble, after handing over the holy decree to Li Keyong and the envoys of the other four feudal towns, he disappeared and hid, he knew very well that when there was an argument between the feudal towns, he would definitely be looking for him, at this time, he could not get involved, after the success of the Japanese logistics king, he still had to rely on these feudal towns, but he could not offend a certain feudal town because he was involved in the dispute between the feudal towns, that is, the gains outweighed the losses.
Yang Fugong's choice was very correct, Li Keyong and others quickly understood, and sent someone to find Yang Fugong, but unfortunately at this time, Yang Fugong had disappeared.
This made Li Keyong and others feel that Yang Fugong, a eunuch, is not simple, no wonder he can accept the emperor's commission, maybe this Yang Fugong will directly control the iron-blooded army in the future, and will be the emperor's most trusted eunuch, under the current situation, he can't offend this Yang Fugong.
