Chapter 245: Messenger Chai Shao

"If we want to kill the Turkic general Ashina Simo and then cause the Turkic army to rebel, we must first solve a contradiction about Ashina Simo, that is, since Ashina Simo has secretly betrayed the Turkic army, why didn't he leak the information about Ambassador Li Yuan Li to us?"

Li Jing at both ends of the first rat worked equally hard in front of Chen Yingliang and Li Yuan, and patiently pointed out to Chen Fuliang: "Although we can't confirm whether Ashina Simo knows about how many times the Shibi Thief Chief has contacted Ambassador Li, but judging from the explanations of the eldest grandson Shunde and Hou Junji, when the Shibi Thief Chief first contacted Ambassador Li, there were many members of the Ashina family present, so the lower officials think that Ashina Simo is ninety percent likely to know about this." In this way, if we do not solve the problem of why he did not betray Ambassador Lee, then our plan will be hugely flawed, and even the Chieftain of the Thief will immediately understand that this is our discord plan, and may even suspect that Ambassador Li can no longer be relied on. ”

"Yes, this flaw must be remedied." Chen Fuliang nodded, and said: "We will make up for this flaw, even if Ashina Simo didn't know about Ambassador Li before, it doesn't matter, but it also proves that he has been secretly spying on the secret military intelligence of the Turks, which makes the Shibi Thief Chief hate him even more." But how do we make up for this flaw? ”

"The lower officials have a plan that may work, bargain, and create the illusion that Ashina Simo is bargaining with us." Li Jing replied.

"Bargging? How to bargain? Chen Yingliang hurriedly asked.

"Dashuai, when Ashina Simo first contacted you, you didn't dare to trust him at that time, did you?" Li Jing smiled and said: "Ashina Simo took the risk to contact us and betray the Turkic military intelligence, I'm afraid I'm also worried that you will unload the mill and kill the donkey, cross the river and tear down the bridge, right?" Therefore, the first time he contacted you, he only told you about the sneak attack plan of the Shibi Thief Chieftain, and also told you that the Shibi Thief Chief had secretly contacted an important general of King Qin's army, but did not tell you what the surname of this important general was, so if you want to know who this person is, and you want Ashina Simo to continue to provide you with Turkic military information, you must agree to the conditions put forward by Ashina Simo, right? ”

Chen Fuliang laughed out loud and laughed: "Li Juncheng, I now know who is the worst among the hundreds of thousands of people in King Qin's army, in the past, others called me to lose my conscience Chen Fuliang behind my back, I think I am the worst, and now I understand that the worst and most damaged person is you!" How did you come up with such a reasonable excuse? ”

"Lost the conscience of heaven Chen mourned?" A few black lines appeared in Li Jing's head, and it was really the first time he heard Chen Yingliang's nickname, and after secretly admiring Chen Fuliang's frankness and straightforwardness, Li Jing hurriedly said modestly: "Dashuai has won the award, as for how to let the Turks know about these situations, Xia Guanjian or through Ambassador Li's line will be revealed, and by the way, Ashina Simo will be accused of a crime, that is, in addition to asking him to continue to provide military aircraft, there is also an attempt to use him to secretly organize Tuan Hu soldiers to launch a rebellion. At the critical moment, stab the thief chief in the back! ”

Chen Fuliang nodded again and again, but after carefully thinking about it for a while, Chen Fuliang said in a deep voice: "Li Juncheng, as for how to disclose the situation of Ashina Simo to the Shibi Thief Chieftain and send the news through Ambassador Li, I think this point must be carefully discussed. It is indeed very convenient to do this, but in this way, the fact that Ashina Simo betrayed the Shibi Thief Chief is only an isolated proof of Ambassador Li's news, which is too traced, and as long as the Shibi Thief Chief is cautious, he will not suspect that this is a discordant plan. ”

"In addition, how Ambassador Li can find out about these important information has also become a big question." Chen Fuliang pondered again and said: "Previously, I used various channels to establish a cautious and somewhat suspicious image in front of the Shibi Thief Chief, since the Shibi Thief Chief thinks I am cautious, then how can I not worry about the source and authenticity of Ambassador Li's information?" Although we can still cover this up with lies, after all, it is the words of Ambassador Li's family, and the thief chief may not be gullible. ”

"Dashuai is really cautious, and these two issues must indeed be taken seriously." Li Jing nodded, and said: "Then think about it carefully, how to make the news of the Shibi Thief Chief reasonable and reasonable, and how to make these incriminating evidence into ironclad evidence, so that the Shibi Thief Chief can fully believe it." ”

Chen Fuliang nodded, and racked his brains with Li Jing to ponder the bad idea of the black smoke from the ancestral tomb of the lack of virtue, but this problem is too complicated, and it is difficult to make up for all aspects seamlessly for a while, so after thinking for a long time, Chen Fuliang and Li Jing did not come up with any good solutions, but the result was that the chief military judge Yin Shishi entered the back tent to report the military situation to Chen Fuliang, and saw Li Jing once again sitting in front of a large number of confidential documents. The Yin World Master, who had been doubting Li Jing's position, couldn't help frowning, and deliberately coughed, "Cough! ”

"There it is!"

The reaction brought by the cough of the Yin World Master startled him, and Chen Fuliang, who was closing his eyes and thinking hard, suddenly shouted, and then jumped up, and said with a happy face: "There is a way!" I took the soldiers and horses of the King of Zhulu Qin to send a piece of music to the emperor, and reported to the emperor that Ashina Simo had various situations, pretending that Ashina Simo had made a surrender condition that he was canonized as one of the Turkic khans, and jointly implored the emperor to canonize Ashina Simo as the Turkic Eastern Khan, and then let someone pretend to be Ambassador Li's messenger to contact the Turks, so that the Turks would know that my envoy had sent troops north to intercept it, and took my messenger to intercept it. Wouldn't that piece of music become an ironclad proof that Ashina Simo secretly colluded with us?! ”

Hearing Chen Fuliang's words, the Yin World Master who had just come in was of course confused, and he didn't know why, but Li Jing, who was racking his brains, was overjoyed and said, "Brilliant plan!" While letting Li Yuan's envoy leak the secret directly to the Shibi Thief Chieftain, he arranged a fake evidence, and by the way, let the Shibi Thief Chief know the reason why Ashina Simo did not betray Ambassador Li before, and the Shibi Thief Chief had to be fooled! ”

"No, no, no." Chen Fuliang hurriedly shook his head and waved his hand, and said quickly: "I can't let Li Yuan's envoy directly tell the chief of the Shibi thief that the Turkic traitor is Ashina Simo, I can only say that Li Yuan knew that there was such a concerto, and he also signed the concerto, just because I was too cautious and handed over the concerto to everyone to sign together, I had not yet written Ashina Simo's name, but after everyone had signed, I would fill in this name separately, so Ambassador Li only knew the storage of this concerto. I don't know directly who that Turkic traitor is! ”

Li Jing laughed loudly, and hurriedly bowed his hand to Chen Fuliang and said: "Dashuai, just now you said that Xia Guan is the worst, but now the facts have proved that compared to you, Xia Guan is definitely a moral gentleman." The trick has been played to this point, and if the thief chief is not fooled again, it will simply be unreasonable. ”

"It's over, it's over." Chen Fuliang also hurriedly humbled himself, and said with a smile: "However, in this regard, I feel a little scary when I think of myself, how did I come up with such a clever plan?" ”

After that, Chen Fuliang and Li Jing looked at each other and laughed, but the laughter was quickly interrupted by the Yin World Master's shouting, "What are you talking about?" Can you make it clear to me first and then laugh? ”

Chen Fuliang racked his brains to figure out that this vicious idea was indeed vicious, so when Chen Fuliang and Li Jing laughed and told the Yin Master about the situation, the Yin World Master, who was definitely a kind person, gradually opened his mouth, and then couldn't help muttering, "You two bad seeds, how can you be so bad?" ”

Muttering to muttering, it is a great thing to be able to weaken the enemy himself by the enemy's hand, and the Yin World Master is still very willing to help, and immediately said: "Great handsome plan, the messenger side will be handed over to me, and the last will immediately arrange two absolutely reliable messengers, one will send you a chapter for you, and the other will pretend to be Li Yuan's guard to send you a letter to the enemy camp." I will sue him of danger, let him deliberately surrender and save his life after being captured, and wait until we come to save him. ”

"Yin Taishou, can you find such a person?" Chen Fuliang, who originally planned to use the death to send the chapter, asked.

"Rest assured, the last general, there are still a few people who are absolutely reliable." The Yin Master replied confidently.

Hearing the words of the Yin World Master, Li Jing glanced at the Yin World Master intentionally or unintentionally, but did not say anything, Chen Yingliang was even more overjoyed, and hurriedly thanked the Yin World Master, and said: "Yin Taishou, the messenger who pretends to be Ambassador Li's guard can be at will, but the messenger who was deliberately captured for me must be absolutely reliable." For the sake of safety, it is better not to tell him the truth of the matter, and to prevent him from betraying after being captured. ”

Yin Shishi nodded, but Li Jing next to him said quickly: "Dashuai, you are wrong about this, the messenger who was deliberately captured is only secondary, and the person who pretends to be Li Yuan's messenger to go to the enemy camp to directly contact the Turkic Shibi Khan is the most important." He must convince the Shibi Thief Chief that he is absolutely trusted, and convince the Turks that he cannot be the fake messenger you arranged, so that he can fully win the trust of the Turks and facilitate our next move. Therefore, Xia Guan thought that he could no longer send someone to pretend to be Li Yuan's messenger to deliver the letter, so that it would not only be difficult to gain the trust of the Shibi Thief Chief, but also that he might show his flaws, and the guide would lose everything. ”

"It makes sense, but in a moment and a half, where do I go up and find such a messenger?" Chen Fuliang nodded and asked rhetorically.

Li Jing hesitated for a moment, and then said: "Dashuai, I heard that when you were down in Daxing City more than two years ago, the family of your fiancΓ©e, who was married, sent people to the door twice to withdraw from the marriage, one of which was Chai Shao's personal visit to withdraw from the marriage, what is your impression of Chai Gongzi?" ”

"Why do you ask this?" Chen Fuliang was full of confusion.

"It's nothing, I just want to ask the marshal your impression of Chai Gongzi, the lower official is bold, and please answer the marshal truthfully." Li Jing replied.

"Insolent, arrogant, empty-eyed, eyes above the top, typical family style." Chen Fuliang replied casually: "Also, barely a little conscience, at that time, in addition to retiring from the marriage, he also offered to find me an envoy to let me eat under his father-in-law's account, lest I starve to death, and I was not extremely vicious." ”

"Wait." Speaking of this, Chen Fuliang finally came to his senses and exclaimed, "Li Juncheng, don't you want to build a province and I will send Chai Shao to serve as this messenger, right?" ”

"Dashuai, there is no one more suitable to serve as this messenger than Chai Gongzi." Li Jing said in a deep voice: "The grievances between Chai Gongzi and you are known all over the world, because your talent proves that the Chai Gongzi family has no eyes, and the dog's eyes look down on people, and it also leads to the Chai family's father and son being demoted to civilians, which is also known to the world, Chai Gongzi is also Ambassador Li's beloved son-in-law, he goes to serve as this messenger, the first thief chief will not have the slightest suspicion no matter what, and he must immediately fully trust every word of Chai Gongzi!" ”

"Li Juncheng, you shouldn't be talking nonsense with a high fever, right?" The Yin World Master was stunned and shouted, "The enmity between Chai Shao and Dashuai is as deep as the sea, and you even let Chai Shao take on such a heavy responsibility?" What should we do if Chai Shao sells us? ”

Li Jing didn't answer, but just asked Chen Fuliang: "Dashuai, do you think Chai Shao will betray us?" With Chai Shao's person, is it possible to betray you without hesitation? ”

Chen Fuliang was silent, hesitated for a long time, and Li Jing said again: "Chai Gongzi joined the army this time, and the lower officials have had a lot of contact with him, and the lower officials can see that Chai Gongzi is a high-minded and arrogant person, and he is also very remorseful for what he did back then, and his heart is tormented, so that his temples are gray at a young age, which is enough to prove that he has a good conscience and feels guilty about the consequences of his actions back then." Of course, such a person hates you to the bone marrow, but it is probably not possible for him to ignore the life or death of his relatives in the rear, to commit treason and defect to the enemy, and to be willing to act as a lackey for the Turkic barbarians. ”

Chen Yingliang was still silent, and the Yin World Master said angrily: "Who said it might not be big? Chai Shao is not only Chen Dashuai's enemy, but also Li Yuan's son-in-law, how can such a person be reliable? ”

"It is precisely because Chai Shao is Ambassador Li's son-in-law that it is impossible for him to betray the marshal!" Li Jingyan replied: "Chai Shao has caused his sister to be unable to marry, and his father is paralyzed in bed, which has also caused Ambassador Li's reputation to be discredited and ridiculed by unknown people. Chai Shao already owes too much to his parents and family, and even more to Ambassador Li, if he deliberately betrays Dashuai and completely kills his parents, family and Ambassador Li, then he is not even as good as a beast! ”

Speaking of this, Li Jing asked calmly: "Chen Dashuai, Yin Taishou, do you think Chai Shao is the kind of person who is inferior to beasts?" ”

The Yin World Master, who had also carefully investigated Chai Shao, was speechless, and he was a little hesitant for a while, but Chen Fuliang gritted his teeth and said viciously: "Okay! Just send Chai Shao! ”

"Dashuai, do you really want to take such a big risk?" The Yin Shi Master was taken aback.

"I didn't take the risk, I thought it through." Chen Fuliang shook his head and explained: "I will give this task to Chai Shao, if Chai Shao sells me, we will only lose a messenger, and we can bear the opportunity to use Ambassador Li's separation from the Turks, but if Chai Shao does not betray me, then our gain will be too great." So, even if it's a risk, it's worth the price. ”

Seeing that Chen Fuliang had made up his mind, and considering Chai Shao's usual behavior and the price of betraying Dasui, and the huge gains after the success of the adventure, after weighing the pros and cons for a long time, Yin Shishi still nodded and said: "Yes, Chai Shao is indeed the most suitable candidate for the envoy, although he has taken some risks, but since you have made up your mind, then it is enough to give the official an order." ”

Chen Fuliang also nodded, and then immediately acted according to the plan, arranging various affairs, and Li Jing helped Chen Fuliang to prepare the chapter, and said in his heart: "Actually, there is a more suitable messenger, but this messenger is too wasteful to send out now, it is better to stay and wait for it to come in a greater use." Also, this messenger is so unreliable that I have to accompany him to prevent it. ”

…………

In order to play the trick enough, Chen Fuliang summoned Wang Shichong, Yun Dingxing, Liu Changgong and Yin Shishi and other important generals of the Sui army, explained the reason to them, asked them to sign the chapter together, and asked Li Yuan, who was under house arrest, to also sign the chapter, and then wrote the name of Ashina Simo, sealed it with fire paint and handed it over to a reliable messenger personally arranged by the Yin Shishi. In the end, Chen Fuliang ordered Chai Shao to be summoned, personally explained the task to him, explained the situation, and arranged for him to pretend to be Li Yuan's traitorous envoy to the enemy camp.

Chen Fuliang and Chai Shao, who almost became the relatives of Uncle Lang, met again, the scene was of course as embarrassing as it was, after Chen Fuliang explained the details of the task to Chai Shao, Chai Shao's reaction was of course very intense, and his face suddenly turned into a pig's liver color, and he refused on the spot: "The handsome forgive the sin, the last general will not dare to take the order!" ”

"Why?" Chen Fuliang asked knowingly.

"The last general doesn't want his father-in-law to be suspected of collaborating with the enemy!" Chai Shao replied loudly: "The Turks besieged the emperor's majesty in Yanmen City, and if the general sent an envoy to the enemy camp under the banner of his father-in-law, and secretly contacted the Turkic barbarians, the traffic news, in the future, the father-in-law will not understand even if he has a hundred mouths, and he will not be able to wash it by jumping into the Yellow River!" The last general would rather be punished by the death penalty than let his father-in-law be suspected of collaborating with the enemy! ”

"Brother Sichang, it seems that you really don't know, because of my affair with you, your father-in-law, Ambassador Li, has been suspected of collaborating with the enemy." Chen Fuliang suddenly changed his tone and said in a deep voice: "I won't hide it from you, yesterday I announced that Ambassador Li suddenly contracted a violent illness and could not lead the troops, and let Li Jiancheng take over his command of the Taiyuan Qinwang Army, just because your father-in-law was suspected of collaborating with the enemy, and I had to put him and Li Shimin under house arrest in the Chinese army camp as a precaution. ”

As he spoke, Chen Fuliang whispered the situation to Chai Shao, and showed the letter written by Shibi Khan to Li Yuan as evidence, and then said solemnly: "Brother Sichang, the reason why your father-in-law, Ambassador Li, is suspected of collaborating with the enemy, although it is due to the misunderstanding caused by the eldest grandson Shunde and Hou Junji, but the root is from you and me, it is because the Turkic side knows the grievances between you and me, so they misunderstood that your father-in-law, Ambassador Li, is preparing to collaborate with the enemy and betray the country, and only then did he dare to take the risk of secretly contacting your father-in-law and exchanging news. So ...... again. ”

Speaking of this, Chen Fuliang paused, and then said: "Therefore, Ambassador Li is suspected of collaborating with the enemy and is being detained in the house arrest army, in fact, you and I are responsible, but I think your responsibility is greater." ”

"Why am I the most responsible?" Chai Shao asked angrily.

"What do you say? Why? ”

Chen Fuliang also asked rhetorically, and looked at Chai Shao with blazing eyes, Chai Shao glared at Chen Fuliang angrily, his eyes collided, and the sparks were strung together, but after looking at each other for a while, Chai Shao, who knew his family's own affairs, gradually weakened, and lowered his head weakly. Chen Fuliang also opened his mouth at this time, and said in a gentle tone: "Brother Sichang, there is only one way to help your father-in-law clear his suspicion now, that is, to make meritorious service and kill the enemy to prove his innocence. Rest assured, as long as you do what I tell you, there will be no danger. ”

The muscles on Chai Shao's face twitched, and he said in a hoarse voice after a while: "Aren't you afraid that I will betray you and truthfully explain your conspiracy and tricks to the Turks?" ”

"I'm not afraid." Chen Fuliang said calmly: "Brother Sichang, two years ago outside Daxing City, for the sake of your sister and your wife, I forgave you, today, for the sake of the world friendship between our Chen Chai and Chai families, I will give you a chance to atone for your sins, I believe you will not be wrong again and again." I think you should know, what will happen if you do something wrong again this time? At that time, even if I can spare your family and father-in-law, I am afraid that the gods of heaven and earth will not be able to spare them. ”

The muscles on Chai Shao's face twitched even more, and he didn't speak for a long time, while Chen Fuliang observed his words, suddenly slapped the table, and shouted: "Chai Shao, the captain of Zuotunwei, this commander ordered you to send an envoy to the enemy camp to deceive the enemy and make meritorious contributions!" Command?! ”

Chai Shao was shocked by Chen Fuliang's drinking, and his expression was sluggish for a moment, and then he lowered his head and said in a voice like a mosquito: "The last general, take the order." ”
