Chapter 1051: Gambling
Li Xiong pondered, and after a moment, he looked at Fan Changsheng.
Fan Changsheng lowered his eyes and nodded after thinking, "It's a way, you can try it." β
If it doesn't work, then find an excuse to fix it.
Li Xiong was about to order troops immediately, and Fan Changsheng reminded him: "Your Majesty should see Zhao Xin, it's best to drag him with an illusion." β
They didn't know that Zhao Hanzhang had sent Xie Shi to lead his troops to Hanzhong two days earlier, and not only that, Zhao Hanzhang also sent a telegram to Jingzhou, ordering Wang Xuan to lead 20,000 soldiers and horses across the Wujiang River to support Fuling County.
Two days ago, Zhao Xin wrote and passed on Li Xiong's requests, and asked the person with the radio station to send the news back to Luoyang.
Zhao Hanzhang received it on the same day.
She had been preparing for it, and after determining Li Xiong's request, she immediately ordered Xie Shi and Wang Xuan to send troops.
This time, their purpose was not to fight, but to deter Li Xiong and stabilize the place.
Li Xiong's three conditions, Zhao Hanzhang told Zhao Xin that her bottom line is one and a half, one is to recognize Chengguo; The second is that the two countries open tea and horse markets, and they are not exchanged.
However, the relationship between the two countries is not a brother country, but a vassal of the monarch and a vassal of the king, and a vassal of the king, and a vassal of the Jin.
Therefore, Chengguo can be Chengguo, but there is no emperor, only Chengwang, King Shu!
As for the conditions for transferring the remaining Jin ministers from Shu and ceding all the Bashu region to Chengguo......
Zhao Hanzhang snorted coldly, she really wanted to transfer out all those Jin ministers, but she didn't want to give them to Chengguo, but to send new people to govern.
It's a pity that the Shu Road is difficult, and it is difficult to enter Fuling County without passing through Brazil and Guanghan, etc., from Jingzhou, Wujiang and Wushan are not easy to walk, and I don't know if Wang Xuan can reach them safely.
It is one thing that people are difficult to enter, and it is also difficult for materials to enter.
Judging from the large outflow of displaced people from Shu, the resources inside are very scarce, at least the warring areas, as well as the current situation in the areas controlled by the Jin Chen, are very bad.
They need outside assistance, otherwise the people will either run or die, and it is basically impossible to rely on foreign aid to defend the city, and they have to rely on the locals.
Thinking like this, Zhao Hanzhang sent a telegram to Wang Siniang, asking her to appease the displaced people who came out of Shu, and then persuaded them to go back, "Let them bring the supplies back, and if they can, organize a horse team to transport the materials into Shu." β
After arranging them one by one, Zhao Hanzhang and Fu Tinghan said: "Princess Hongnong and Uncle Fu are afraid that they will not be able to attend our wedding, and I will try to let them return to Luoyang next spring." β
Fu Tinghan was actually not mentally prepared to face them, but he was relieved when he heard this, and asked, "Are they safe?" β
Zhao Hanzhang nodded: "Safe." β
It's not safe now, and it will be safe to appear in Hanzhong County when Xie Shi arrives.
Hanzhong County belonged to Liangzhou, and within the scope of Bashu, after Fu Yi arrived in Chang'an, he assigned troops to fight with Li Xiong for the control of the counties in Liangzhou, firstly, in order to prevent Li Xiong from attacking from within Bashu; The second is to leave an opening for the imperial court to take back Bashu in the future.
However, because of the food shortage, his control over Hanzhong County was not close, and the soldiers and civilians of Hanzhong County occasionally listened to him for his occasional assistance.
Xie Shi came over with a large army, and Fu Yi only hesitated for a moment before letting his people withdraw from Hanzhong County and hand over Hanzhong to Xie Shi.
Xie Shi brought a batch of relief materials, and with this batch of materials and Zhao Hanzhang's edict, he quickly took control of Hanzhong County.
Then, on the one hand, let people pacify the victims and build projects, so that they can work, make money, and have rice to buy, so that there will be no chaos; On the one hand, the border of the soldiers was displayed, so that the soldiers of Chengguo on the opposite side could see the newly raised "Zhao" flag.
The soldiers of Chengguo were startled and hurriedly gave the general information to Picheng.
When Li Xiong, who was in Picheng, received the news, his courtiers were arguing with Zhao Xin over three conditions.
After reading the military situation, Li Xiong clenched the paper in his hand and almost crumpled it.
Everyone also felt Li Xiong's anger and unhappiness, and slowly shut down, looked left and right suspiciously, and was speechless.
Zhao Xin was still calm and looked at Li Xiong with a smile.
"So daring," Li Xiong's gaze fell on Zhao Xin, his gaze was sharp, "Zhao Hanzhang sent troops to Hanzhong, she is not afraid that I will cut down your cousin?" β
Zhao Xindao: "The one standing here is not the general's cousin, but the envoy of the Jin State, I also believe that His Royal Highness King Cheng is not a brutal and warlike person, and our general also knows that His Royal Highness loves the people of Shu deeply, so he is willing to take a step back and allow His Highness to take care of Bashu by himself, otherwise, the Zhao family army can level Shile and swing the Huns, is it really impossible to go through the Shu Road?" β
As soon as these words came out, all the civil and military ministers of Chengguo changed color, and some short-tempered military attaches immediately rolled up their sleeves and stepped forward to beat Zhao Xin.
Zhao Xin stood still, glanced at the person who rushed up lightly and said, "I will never fight back." β
Then the civil officials of Chengguo urgently stopped the military attachΓ© and really killed people in the court, and Zhao Hanzhang might really be able to get in.
However, although they stopped people, they were unwilling to obey Zhao Xin, so they retorted to him: "Our Majesty has long been self-reliant, the Jin Kingdom has no way, and the people of our country are all willing to follow Your Majesty. β
Zhao Xin said: "There are many foolish people in the world, they don't know, don't you know?" Liangzhou is one of the nine states, and the monarch wants to establish himself as an emperor here, is it to split Kyushu, is it to repeat the hundred years of war in the pre-Qin period? β
"A temporary hobby does not represent long-term peace and stability, becoming a king, the kings, if it is really good for the people of Bashu, you should accept the appeasement of the general, change the emperor to the king, and establish a vassal state."
"Put your mother's shit, what a mess, I don't understand, in short, I know a little, Bashu will be under the jurisdiction of the Jin State, and we Shu people will be crushed to death in the future, Your Majesty, do you say?"
Li Xiong sat silently, without words.
The military attache who shouted and scolded saw that Li Xiong was silent, and was shocked, and hurriedly went to find someone, "Prime Minister, you have something to say, Your Majesty, what does Your Majesty mean by this?" β
Fan Changsheng lifted his eyelids and looked at Zhao Xin, and asked in a deep voice: "Chengguo is attached, do you want to listen to the will of a yellow-haired child, or listen to General Zhao's guidance?" β
Zhao Xin said shallowly: "Now the holy decrees of the court are all from the three provinces, and His Majesty is personally taught by the general and Xun Taifu, not only with the benevolence of the general, but also with the versatility of Xun Taifu, and also ask Prime Minister Fan not to insult the emperor." β
Fan Changsheng looked at his face and said, "It is rare for the people of Chengguo to live in peace, if General Zhao can't give a promise, please forgive me for the offense." β
So, do you Zhao Hanzhang want to replace the little emperor as the emperor, or will you return the rights to the little emperor?
Fan Changsheng stared at Zhao Xin with blazing eyes.
Zhao Xin was not in a hurry, because he had already passed the initial stage of panic, such a question, not to mention that there were people in Luoyang who discussed it, that is, they had quietly discussed it within the Zhao family.
Even his father once sneaked into his house in the middle of the night and asked, "Is Sanniang going to be the emperor in the future?" β
