Chapter 269: Baoyu
After listening to Yan Hao's words, the young man's little face couldn't help but show a blush, and then said, "It was just a misunderstanding just now, it was the students who were reckless." β
"Okay, Yang Ming, you don't have to be nervous, Yan Xiangguo doesn't mean to accuse you. Why are you in such a hurry to see me?" Liu Chen sat in the front seat and asked Yang Ming.
Hearing this, Yang Ming eased his thoughts, and then said to Liu Chen: "Student first take the liberty of asking, these days have passed, General Liu, have you found Feng Quan and Feng Gang who killed the envoys of the Liang State?"
Hearing Yang Ming's question, Liu Chen's face suddenly became gloomy, he sighed, and said, "I sent out more than 5,000 soldiers before and after, searching from house to house, but I didn't find the two of them. It's as if they've evaporated from the world, and they're nowhere to be found. β
"Hmph, these two bastards, they escaped without a trace, but they have affected our Jiang country. Yan Zhendong slapped the table and said angrily.
Hearing Liu Chen's answer, Yang Ming's face was calm, without a trace of surprise, obviously he had expected this result, and then said, "Sure enough, that's the case." β
"General Liu, I think it is very likely that we have been deceived by the people of Liang Guo, Feng Quan and Feng Gang, the two of them may have died long ago. Yang Ming said, his little face was very serious.
Hearing this, Liu Chen was slightly startled, and immediately asked, "Yang Ming, why do you think so?"
"General Liu, you still remember, when we did not return to the mountain, we attacked the rebel enemy camp, I once broke into the big tent, at that time I wanted to find Jiang Zi'an's body, but in the big tent, I happened to meet Cheng Yu, the envoy of the Liang State, and the person wearing Jiang Zi'an's skin, he was Cheng Yu's guard, I tried to attack the guard at that time, but I found that the strength of the guard, far above me, I had to give up, and then thanks to a soldier desperately covering with his life, I was able to escape from the big tent with Jiang Zi'an's bodyγ β
Yang Ming thought back to everything that happened in the big tent that day, as well as the sense of oppression he had felt from that guard, and still had lingering palpitations when he thought about it, "If my perception is correct, the strength of that guard should be above the sun, and Feng Quan and Feng Gang, I have also fought against them, and the strength of both of them is at the level of Yueyao." I don't think the two of them could have been a match for the guard, even if they had joined forces. But the news we got from Liang Guo was Feng Quan and Feng Gang, who not only seriously injured the guards, but also killed Cheng Yu. It's so weird, I guess there's something weird in there. β
Hearing this, Liu Chen nodded thoughtfully and said, "If you are right, the strength of the guard beside Cheng Yu is really above the sun, then it is impossible for Feng Quan and Feng Gang to kill Cheng Yu." It seems that we may really be deceived by Liang Guoren, Cheng Yu was not killed by Feng Quan and Feng Gang, and the murderer should be someone else. β
"If it weren't for Feng Quan and Feng Gang, who would the murderer be?" Yan Zhendong asked suspiciously, "It can't be that guard who killed him!"
After Yan Zhendong said this, even he himself was frightened.
"Is it ......?"
"That's right, it's very likely that the guard killed him in order to blame Jiang Guo. Liu Chen's face was gloomy and he said seriously, "I think Feng Quan and Feng Gang should also be killed by him, and then destroy the corpses, so that there will be no proof of death." β
"This ...... Liang Guoren is too ruthless, in order to blame us, he actually killed his own people. Yan Zhendong's surprised little face was full of disbelief.
"There is a saying, if you are reluctant to have a child, you can't trap a wolf! Giving up an envoy in exchange for the entire Jiang country, the wishful thinking of the people of the Liang country is really vicious. Liu Qianyu clenched his fists and gritted his teeth.
"What the people of Liang want is not only Jiang Guo, he wants the armor iron ore in the border mountains of Jiang Guo. Xiangguo Yan Hao said for a while, "Yang Ming, thank you for telling us this, but even if your guesses are true, the envoys of the Liang State did die at the hands of their own people, and we have no way to verify the truth of this matter." Moreover, Liang was determined to start a war, and the death of the envoy was just an excuse to deceive the people. β
"Could it be that war really can't be avoided?" Yang Ming asked worriedly, "General, with the current strength of Jiang State, can we resist the 100,000 army of Liang State?"
Liu Chen sighed and replied helplessly: "The Red Horse Army is only 30,000, even if the strong men are temporarily recruited into the army, Jiang Guo can only gather 70,000 troops at most, and it is impossible to resist the 100,000 army of Liang State." So, we can't go to war with the Liang State. Once the war starts, Jiang Guo will definitely be defeated. β
"However, now that Liang Guo wants to provoke a war, what can we do?" Yang Mingxiao's face was full of worry and uneasiness, and he asked eagerly.
The death of the envoy was only an excuse, and the truth was not so important. And even if the truth of the matter is found out, what if Liang Guo can use this excuse today, and tomorrow he may find other excuses, as long as Liang Guo does not die of thieves, he will try all kinds of reasons to provoke trouble. Therefore, the fundamental solution to the problem is not how to see through Liang Guo's "excuse", but to completely eliminate Liang Guo's "thief heart".
Liu Chen looked at Yan Hao, and then said, "This is the reason why Yan Xiangguo came to me today to resign." β
"Tomorrow, Yan Xiangguo will send an envoy to Wei as an envoy to ask Wei for help. β
"Wei State! The Wei State, the first of the three great powers in the East. Hearing this, Yang Ming said with a small face.
There were three great powers in the eastern territory, namely Liang, Zhao, and Wei, which were known as the three great powers of the East. Among them, Wei is the most powerful, the first of the three major powers.
"That's right, it's the Wei State. Wei was the most powerful state in the East, and only Wei could stop Liang's ambitions. Yan Hao said.
"But, is Wei Guo kind enough to help us Jiang Guo?"
"Yang Ming, the kindness between countries needs to be bought at a 'price'. Yan Hao preached to Yang Ming, "Liang Guo is plotting against our Jiang State for the sake of armor iron ore. Therefore, the armor iron ore is the bargaining chip in the hands of our Jiang country, and the country that wants to get the armor iron ore is not the only one in the Liang country. β
"I am going to persuade the king of Wei to send half of the armor iron ore mined in the border mountains to Wei, and at the same time promise to pay Wei an annual tribute of 10,000 taels of gold and 10,000 stones of grain, hoping that this can be exchanged for the blessing of Wei. Yan Hao stated the purpose of this envoy to Wei.
Hearing this, Yang Ming understood the meaning, and said in a trance: "I understand, this is spending money to hire a helper." β
It's like a street fight, I can't beat you, but I can pay someone to beat you up.
Yan Hao smiled helplessly, nodded, sighed and said: "That's almost the meaning, this is also a way out of the way, since Rongguo can find Liang Guo as a backer, we can also find Wei Guo to be our big tree, this is the survival of the weak." β
"Hmph, it's really unwilling to think about giving half of the armor ore to someone else. The armor iron ore is obviously our Jiang country's, but we want to give it away. Yan Zhendong slapped the table, his heart was angry, and he said indignantly.
Listening to Yan Zhendong's "naΓ―ve" words, Yan Hao said earnestly: "Zhendong, 'what is yours is yours', in this world where the weak and the strong eat, there is no such truth. Remember, only what you can keep is yours, and what you can't keep is not yours. β
Liu Chen nodded in agreement, and then said: "This is the cruelty of this world, the so-called Huaibi is guilty, a good piece of precious jade, if it is obtained by a powerful person, it is naturally the icing on the cake, indisputable." However, if Baoyu falls on a poor person who has no power or power, it is not a treasure, but a disaster, because the poor person without power and power is unable to keep Baoyu, so he will naturally be targeted by thieves. β
"For Jiang Guo, the armor iron ore is such a 'treasure jade', since the discovery of the armor iron ore in the border mountain, Rong Guo first came to fight for it, we fought a battle and barely accepted it. Then Rongguo called Shang Liang again, and the two countries came together, and now Liang is a country, and they want to take it by force. If we stubbornly defend the 'Baoyu' of armored iron ore, and wait for the Liang State to attack the Jiang State, then we will be empty of both men and money, and we will lose both the 'Baoyu' and our lives. It's better that we take the initiative to let 'Baoyu' out, at least to protect the safety of our Jiang country." β
After listening to Liu Chen and Yan Hao's words, Yang Ming agreed very much, he nodded and said: "That's right, stay in the green mountains, don't be afraid of no firewood, the important thing is to keep the 'green mountains', as long as we hold the Jiang country, the Jiang country will still have a chance." Now Jiang Guo's strength is too weak, just like a small tree, the small tree is too small to withstand the wind and rain, so we have to bow our heads, we must forbear, and we need the blessing of the big tree, but the small tree will grow into a big tree one day, and when the time comes, we can be alone and no longer need to bow our heads. β
Yes, Jiang is only a small country now, but Jiang will one day become stronger and will become a strong country.
Looking at Yang Ming with satisfaction, Liu Chen and Yan Hao both showed relieved smiles, "Hahaha...... Yang Ming, you are right, a small tree will grow into a big tree one day, and Jiang Guo will become a strong country one day. It's just that Yan Xiangguo and I are already old, and the future Jiang Guo will depend on you. Yang Ming, and Yu'er, I hope you will always remember this sentence, Jiang Guo will definitely become stronger. β
