Chapter 771: Emperor Yang's Situation
"Don't talk nonsense, General Lin is already the chief general, how can it be so easy to be deceived," the words of the general below made Fang Quyin more and more dissatisfied, maybe it was indeed inappropriate for Lin Xuanzhong to discuss the military with those foreign generals, but General Lin's identity was Zhao Xu's personal seal, and it was not the turn of the generals below to discuss.
When Fang Quyin put the look of dissatisfaction on his face again, the generals didn't dare to talk about Lin Xuanzhong anymore. And the reason why they wanted to discuss Lin Xuanzhong was that Lin Xuanzhong's treatment of Ruan Ming and others before did not meet their expectations, and now they discussed with foreign generals and ignored them, so when someone took the lead in saying that Lin Xuanzhong had misbehaved, many generals who had been dissatisfied with Lin Xuanzhong earlier followed to express their emotions.
It's just that they didn't expect that although Fang Quyin seemed to be at odds with Lin Xuanzhong, he would still maintain Lin Xuanzhong's status, and he didn't follow their wishes to express his opinions.
In fact, in Fang Quyin's view, the current situation can be regarded as another test for Lin Xuanzhong. At the end of the last battle with the coalition forces, several other generals were full of praise for Lin Xuanzhong, and now it is a good time to weigh Lin Xuanzhong's catties.
While Fang Quyin was talking about other things with the other generals, a major event occurred in Meteorite City, which was so big that it was related to the survival of the royal family of Yangguo. At this moment, in a large hall, Emperor Yang Yao Le and Qingyuan's envoy faced each other, both of them with angry expressions.
"Shangguan Hong, what do you want to do?" Yang Huang's face flushed red with anger.
"It's not what the envoy wants to do, but what does the monarch want to do?" Qingyuan's envoy did not shy away from welcoming the emperor's holy power, "Previously, the monarch secretly arrested the blacksmith and mobilized the ordnance from the envoy, and promised the commander of the night army, Zhao Xu, to exchange Marshal Shi and others, and the envoy had no objection, but now the monarch not only has to hand over so many things to the night country, but also has a secret alliance with the night country, secretly betrays the Qingyuan power, and plots against him, doesn't the monarch want to explain this?"
Qingyuan's envoy Shangguan Hong not only did not fear the identity of Emperor Yang, but also demonstrated to Yao Le.
"What does the emperor mean by this, presumably the envoy knows better than the emperor. Your Qingyuan great country was first a fish and flesh nation, and then when the countries were in danger, they did nothing, and let the countries perish, isn't this a betrayal?" The anger on Emperor Yang's face became more and more obvious, but he never flares up.
"The king is joking, the Qingyuan country is thousands of miles away, even if the envoy sends the news back, it will take ten days to go back and forth, but now the king does not give the kingdom time but has to first ally with the night country to avoid danger, is the monarch so generous that he can not even take revenge on the country?"
"Strong words, this emperor's move is for the dawn of the people of Yangguo, even if my royal family no longer exists from now on, what can it be counted!"
"It's a good one for the country and the public, it seems that the king is determined to betray the Qingyuan country, since this is the case, you and I have nothing to say. ”
"Then why do you want to take the crown prince as a hostage to blackmail the emperor?" Seeing that Shangguan Hong didn't mind tearing his face, Emperor Yang didn't want to talk nonsense with him anymore.
"The prince is loyal to the Qingyuan country, and the envoy is like-minded with the prince, how can he be blackmailed?" Shangguan Hong looked at Emperor Yang coldly, and then continued: "If the prince still thinks about the father-son relationship between him and the prince. Then don't embarrass the prince, or prepare the army for war as soon as possible according to the envoy's wishes. ”
"The Qingyuan Great Power has not abandoned you, and the envoy has already recruited reinforcements from the Gu Kingdom. As long as the army of the valley country enters, you and the two will cooperate closely to lure the night army deep into the hinterland, and then cooperate with each other to fight against the night army, and it will not be a problem to use the terrain advantage of your country to deal with the night army with only 100,000 troops. Besides, the envoy also heard that there were Yangguo people who surrendered to the Night Country in the 100,000 army, and if the king could let those people be spies, wouldn't it be easier to cooperate with the outside world. Seeing that Emperor Yang was already blushing, Shangguan Hong sneered even more.
"Shangguan Hong, you have a good calculation, but do you think that this emperor will fall for your tricks?"
"Why does the king say so ugly, what the envoy does is to help the king keep the Yang Kingdom, the king should understand the painstaking efforts of the envoy," the tone changed, Shangguan Hong continued: "Besides, the prince is vengeful, and he hates the night country as much as the envoy, and the prince should also consider the prince's thoughts!"
"Shangguan Hong, if the prince has three longs and two shorts, this emperor would rather die and not make you feel better," Shangguan Hongyue mentioned the prince, and Emperor Yang's anger increased by three points. It would be good if the crown prince was really loyal to the Qingyuan great country and had a desire for revenge against the night country as Shangguan Hong said, but Emperor Yang knew very well that these were all lies made up by Shangguan Hong, and the prince was just held hostage by Shangguan Hong by despicable means, and now he has become a hostage for Shangguan Hong to blackmail him.
Part of the reason why Emperor Yang decided to ally with the Night Kingdom this time was because of the support of the crown prince, but Emperor Yang did not expect that Shangguan Hong had already bought off some ministers of the court and China, and knew about his decision to form an alliance with the Night Kingdom for the first time, and then secretly controlled the prince. Shangguan Hong's methods are extremely shameless, and now it seems that this is the true face of the Qingyuan Great Power, and the Qingyuan Great Power has no intention of saving Yangguo at all, but just wants Yangguo to exhaust the last value.
As early as when the people of Gu Guo appeared in the city, Emperor Yang should take precautions, and now Shangguan Hong has used the power of Gu Guo to control the crown prince, the son that Emperor Yang relies on the most, it can be said that Emperor Yang's handle has been completely held in Shangguan Hong's hands.
Since ancient times, once the lord of the country establishes the prince, the prince is the foundation of the country, no matter how the Yang country wants to survive in the future, the prince can not have an accident, but now Shangguan Hong and the people of the Gu country cooperate to secretly hold the prince hostage, so that Emperor Yang did not expect it, but the matter has come to this point, and Emperor Yang actually has not much choice.
"What do you want?" Today, Shangguan Hong had a fearless meeting with the palace, obviously having concluded that Emperor Yang would not give up the crown prince, Emperor Yang understood Shangguan Hong's thoughts very well, so after some consideration, Emperor Yang wanted to figure out Shangguan Hong's intention to blackmail him.
"It's very simple, either the king himself will send troops to intercept the night army, or he will directly hand over the military power," the conversation went on to this point, and Shangguan Hong spoke without any worries.
"What?" exclaimed, in Emperor Yang's opinion, the choice given by Shangguan Hong could not be called a choice at all, it was completely forcing Yang Guo to death. But after thinking about it, Emperor Yang knew that Shangguan Hong would not give other options, so Emperor Yang only wanted to know which option was better.
"Your Majesty, the envoy advises you not to play any tricks, otherwise the envoy will not be able to guarantee the safety of the prince. ”
"This emperor needs a little time to think about it," being forced to this point by Shangguan Hong, Emperor Yang had no other choice but to dare to make a rash decision.
"For the sake of the weather delaying the night army's trip, the envoy can give you a day to think about it, and I hope that the king will do it himself," with a wave of his sleeves, Shangguan Hong turned around and left the hall directly with a gloomy face, not giving Emperor Yang face at all.
Shangguan Hong's rude behavior made Emperor Yang extremely hateful, but unfortunately he was controlled by others, and Emperor Yang could only watch him enter and leave the palace freely as a foreign minister. As soon as Shangguan Hong left, Emperor Yang seemed to be crushed by an invisible force, and sat down on the dragon couch with a bang. Recently, the various pressures faced by Yang Guo have exhausted Yang Huang, and I don't know what the situation of other small country lords is, Yang Huang himself feels more and more that it is not easy to be a country lord.
That day can only be regarded as a delaying strategy, but what can Emperor Yang do, the second choice given by Shangguan Hong is tantamount to depriving Emperor Yang of the position of lord, but the first choice is not much better, it is nothing more than forcing Yao Le to embark on a completely different path from his original plan.
If the design leads the night army to the dangerous area in the territory, and then ambushes the night army with the Gu army, even if the night army is strong, the 100,000 night army will still be defeated, and Emperor Yang knows very well that as long as he follows Shangguan Hong's instructions, the crisis faced by the Yang country can be solved in the near future. It's just that after seeing through the true face of the Qingyuan Great Power, Emperor Yang is reluctant to do that, and cooperating with the Gu Country is tantamount to luring the wolf into the room, of course, the real wolf is always the Qingyuan Great Power.
The Qingyuan Great Power forced the countries to submit to nothing more than to manipulate the countries to fight for them, and the destruction of the Snow Country and the Wing Country had no effect on the Qingyuan Great Power, and when the Yang Kingdom ceased to exist one day, many years later, no one would remember that there was a Yang Kingdom.
Sitting on the dragon chair, Emperor Yang thought powerlessly about the future fate of Yang Guo.
Little by little, the time passed and it was night, and as Xue Yin said, the rain began to decrease at the beginning of the night, and when the night came, the rain stopped completely.
After a spring rain, the air was unusually fresh, and all the soldiers came out of the crowded tents to breathe in the fresh air, and the lights were bright and there were sounds everywhere in both camps.
While those soldiers were busy lighting a fire and cooking, Lin Xuanzhong took a pair of generals to patrol around the camp, and soon his boots were covered with mud, but Lin Xuanzhong and the other generals didn't care about this, and they only thought that the atmosphere in the barracks could settle down as soon as possible.
After a period of time, everyone didn't find any problems, and when they returned to the big tent, Lin Xuanzhong arranged some affairs for those outsiders to do. In fact, the main task is to arrange for the soldiers below to eat and rest, as well as to rotate the guard at night. Since suffering a loss, the night army has always been strict in terms of night vigilance, so what Lin Xuanzhong arranged for those generals to do was not a trivial matter.
After arranging the military affairs, Lin Xuanzhong took Xue Yin to the night army camp for dinner. At the same time, Fang Quyin and the other generals were waiting for the arrival of the two in the big tent.
"General Lin, Great Pharmacist, sit down," When the two of them entered the big tent of the Chinese army, Fang Quyin, who had already taken his seat, immediately greeted him.
"Okay," agreed, Lin Xuanzhong glanced at the generals in the tent, and then took Xue Yin to sit down in front of the two empty seats. Immediately afterwards, the other generals who had been standing sat down with him.
