Chapter 919 Special Envoy Sima Yi

Therefore, who to send is the most important thing.

"I'm willing to go." Sima Yi, who had been silent on the side, took the initiative to speak at this moment, and this opening was still a please.

Sima Yi's opening immediately attracted the eyes of both of them, obviously Zhang Tian and Li Ru did not expect that someone would really volunteer to go to such a dangerous mission.

It was precisely because others couldn't think of it that Sima Yi decided to do this.

In the entire Celestial Empire, if you add the Jiangdong Legion, there are a total of thirteen legions, and in fact, these legions are also competing with each other, just because Zhang Chao is still there, all the things have not surfaced, and everyone knows about it.

Sima Yi, who could be one of them, was indeed very clear that the battles between these thirteen legions were sometimes thrilling.

And the reason for this problem is precisely because the relationship between everyone and the Son of Heaven and the emperor is far and near.

Let's take an analogy, for example, a legion belongs to Zhang Chao's absolute lineage, it can be said that it has always had a transcendent position among the legions, and many key things in the past had to be handed over to them, so that Zhang Chao, the emperor, can rest assured.

Maybe it was because Zhang Chao saw it after a long time, so he deliberately promoted the prince's father-in-law Buqi to the commander of the first legion, and also transferred him to the Western Regions to cooperate with Zhang Tian's work. It's like an ordinary family, once there are more children, there are near and far, not to mention a powerful dynasty.

And among these legions, the sooner they follow Zhang Chao, the more meritorious the legions will be. In comparison, the gap is also out.

It's like a dragoon army. The commander of the corps is Ma Chao, speaking of which, the time with Zhang Chao is not long, and it is also a helpless move after the defeat of the Xiliang soldiers in the later period, but his own military division also took refuge after Cao Cao's defeat, so such a legion, or can be completely trusted and reused by Zhang Chao, I am afraid that even he does not believe in himself, how can he convince others?

For example, if ordinary recruits can choose their own legions after training, I am afraid that few people will choose the Dragoon Legion. So why? It is precisely because their corps commanders and military advisors are not close to the emperor.

This is equivalent to a change at the root, which is equivalent to a natural gap, and in this way, it is no wonder that he has so much pressure.

Zhang Chao can be said to be the spiritual pillar of the entire Celestial Empire, and it is not an exaggeration to set the sea god needle.

In this case, if Zhang Chao is willing, the so-called important position of the corps commander and military advisor is just a matter of his word. Sima Yi didn't want his fate to be in the hands of others, at least he wanted others to see his importance, so that he would be less likely to be abandoned.

And how can it be reused? Then you need to do extraordinary things and do miraculous deeds. Obviously, now is such an opportunity, although with the current situation, if he goes to the Western Regions Alliance, his life will be in danger, but on the other hand, why not a chance?

As long as this matter is done well, his ability will be fully reflected, and in this way, his status in Zhang Chao's heart will definitely deepen a lot, and at that time, whoever wants to move him lightly must also think about it. Not to mention, now that the crown prince Zhang Tian is in front of him, currying favor with the future master is also paving the way for the future, no matter how you look at it, it's worth it.

Of course, these are just Sima Yi's thoughts in his heart, and on the surface, he still took the initiative to explain, "His Royal Highness the Prince, after all, I am the military advisor of the Dragoon Legion, and some things in the Western Regions have always been in our management before, but now that something is wrong, of course the minister has to stand up and find a way to solve it." ”

"Okay." Seeing Sima Yi's explanation, Zhang Tian also nodded excitedly. "In this way, it will be difficult to be a military advisor, you can go with confidence, I don't want to come to the countries of the Western Regions to do anything to you, if they really do this, this prince will definitely do it for you... Avenge you. At this moment, Zhang Tian can only say this, after all, although the current Celestial Empire is powerful, it really can't influence the attitude of the countries in the Western Regions.

"No." When Sima Yi saw that Zhang Tian agreed, he knew that his opportunity to perform had arrived, and as for what the result would be, he didn't think much about it. He only knew that the matter was done, and he was tantamount to a great miracle, otherwise, he was afraid that he would lose his life. But people will die one day, and if some opportunities are not seized, then living is like a walking corpse, and there is not much meaning.

Sima Yi decided to persuade the Western Regions Alliance with his own strength, and the preparations were naturally to be done, and Zhang Tian, as a supporter, immediately made an announcement, that is, the Celestial Empire would send important ministers to negotiate with the Western Regions Alliance, and the Celestial Empire wanted to see a peaceful situation in the Western Regions, not a sea of corpses and blood under the flames of war.

The preparations took two days, and the night before the Western Regions Alliance had discussed preparing to launch an attack on the Cheshi Kingdom together, the announcement of the Celestial Empire suddenly came, indicating that the envoys of the Celestial Empire would arrive tomorrow morning.

Originally, it was already ready to fly, but when it was about to be released, suddenly such news came, and a heated controversy immediately broke out among the entire Western Regions Alliance.

The reason why it is said that there is controversy is because some people do not want to talk about it, and some people do want to talk about it.

Those who don't want to talk about it are led by big countries like Wusun, Dawan, Daxia, and Wuqiang. In their opinion, everything is ready, now they are just waiting for the attack, as long as the military attack is in place, the three legions of the Celestial Empire army in the Che Division will be defeated, and with such heavy losses, it must be that the Celestial Empire will not be thinking about what will happen to them for a while.

And what they want to talk about is led by a small country like Xiaowan, in their opinion, if they can surrender without a fight, it will naturally be a good thing. Otherwise, once the war is fought, not to mention how much money will it cost, even if it is won, how much benefit can a small country like them get? Don't make another bad one, the benefits are swallowed by others, then there is really suffering. And if the Celestial Empire army can withdraw from the Western Regions through peace talks, it will naturally be a bad result.

Under the collision of the two ideas, in the end, I still want the peace talks to win, there is no other reason, but the big war is imminent, and those big countries in the Western Regions don't want to fight infighting at this moment, otherwise they won't be taken advantage of by the Celestial Empire in vain, if this is the case, it is equivalent to losing first, and it also proves that the peace talks of the Celestial Empire are equivalent to success.

Then the peace talks are ready, and then the big war cannot start immediately, everyone is waiting for the messenger of the Celestial Empire to come.

In such an atmosphere, before the battle, Sima Yi, the commander of the Dragoon Legion, appeared in front of the Great Tent of the Western Regions Alliance with a team of two hundred guards.

Only two hundred people were brought with him, which was also requested by Sima Yi himself.

This is a negotiation not a war, if the real person is not good for him, it is useless to bring as many people as he wants, it will only increase the number of sacrifices. On the contrary, if he didn't plan to do it, those two hundred people would be enough to ensure his safety.

Although the war is about to start, the strength of the Celestial Empire is still obvious to all, so Sima Yi's arrival was still received "grandly", and some of the small lords of the Western Regions personally walked out of the big tent to greet them, only some of the big lords stayed in the tent, and they did not act because of their identity.

Sima Yi didn't care about these at all, now is not the time to find faults, he who knows his mission, on the contrary, he smiled and greeted the lords of those small countries in the Western Regions, and those who didn't know saw it, and thought it was an old friend for many years.

Accompanied by the lords of the small countries, Sima Yi walked into the big tent, and as soon as he entered here, the originally seemingly harmonious atmosphere suddenly disappeared, and everyone was not talking, but completely isolated Sima Yi in one direction, and the current situation was dozens of people against one.

In this regard, Sima Yi seemed to have been prepared for a long time, and did not say a word, but sat down in the position that seemed to be an orphan with a calm and natural face, and did not even bring a guard with him.

It's not that Sima Yi is big, it's really that the tent has a limited volume, if everyone brings a few guards, I'm afraid that this place will soon be occupied, so what else can we talk about?

After Sima Yi got down, Yuen Long, the lord of Wusun on the opposite side, was the first to speak: "Sima Junshi, right now, you can just say it, what do you want?" Are you ready to surrender? Hehe. ”

This tone of obvious mockery drew laughter from some of the adherents. In their opinion, even if the Celestial Empire sent an envoy at this moment, it was obviously a confession.

Facing Yuen Long's cannon, Sima Yi replied with a calm face: "Lord Yuen Long, I don't know if you represent yourself or all the lords of the Western Regions Alliance?" ”

"What do you mean by that?" Yuen Long asked with some puzzlement.

"Hehe, that's what everyone meant, so Sima Yi doesn't have to talk about it. It's a big deal that you kill me, and then attack the Cheshi country to try it, as long as you can't eat us in one go, once our Heavenly First Emperor arrives with a large army, at that time, you will have to fight if you want to make peace and fight if you want. On the contrary, if it is just the meaning of the lord of Yuen Long, then it doesn't matter, his subordinates are defeated, they have suffered losses, and they always look for face back, which is also understandable. ”

Sima Yi said with an unhurried look, and even mentioned the defeat of Wusun Kingdom at the Celestial Empire not long ago. The so-called beating is not a slap in the face, but these words are really equivalent to slapping the other party on the spot.
