Chapter 434: The Heart of Hegemony
Wang Weichao has done all the tricks, knowing everything and saying everything.
Returning to the commander's tent, the ghost-faced horse saw that Princess Luo Yue was depressed, and persuaded: "It is understandable that your brother sent someone to spy on us, after all, you and I have one and two hundred thousand ghost-faced troops in our hands, and if we have different intentions, he is worried that his throne will not be guaranteed." ”
The princess said angrily, "If we had any different intentions, he would have abdicated a long time ago! ”
The horse smiled bitterly: "The so-called emperor's technique, isn't that it, doubt, suspicion and the so-called balancing technique, if you want to be a qualified emperor, these are the foundations." ”
The princess had a different opinion, and said: "Of course, we must have the heart to defend against people, but it depends on who it is! You and I are loyal to Great Qin, and there are no heirs, no matter now or in the future, it is impossible for him to have the heart to seize power, what is he to worry about?"
Of course, the emperor was worried that what would happen in the future, and no one dared to guarantee it, and he felt that this was a precautionary measure.
The princess raised her eyebrows: "By the way, how did he know about your relationship with Ye Yunyang?"
The horse shook his head: "I don't know, maybe it's a guess, maybe it's a clue that I found, just now because Ying Qi was there, I can't ask." ”
The princess nodded: "This matter must not be leaked out, otherwise not only you and I will be unlucky, but even Ye Yunyang will have to die without a place to be buried, and the emperor of the Han Dynasty is not much stronger than my younger brother." ”
......
Bai Di became stronger and stronger, receiving hundreds of thousands of orphans and widows from the Lan Di clan, plus 70,000 or 80,000 remnants of the defeated army, and those who escaped from other tribes, the total population has exceeded 1.5 million.
Lu Xuan swelled-swelled.
Being in charge of so many people is something he dreamed of before but has never realized, and he feels from the bottom of his bones that it is a good strategy to stick to it, not only to preserve his strength, but also to take the opportunity to grow, which is really an eye-opener.
As for the little benefit given by the Great Han, he no longer paid attention to it, and when the Landi people came to vote, they brought a lot of food, horses and money.
Because of the lack of a large number of men, the orphans and widows of the Landi tribe had to commit themselves to Bai Di, and the things they brought naturally became "dowry" and belonged to the Bai Di people.
In a sentence that is not an exaggeration, the current Bai Di is strong soldiers, strong horses, rich country and strong people.
In this regard, the kings of the other three clans hated the root of their teeth, and always found every opportunity to scold Lu Xun on various occasions, saying that he was treacherous and insatiable.
Lu Xun even had the idea of contacting Daqin again, the last time the Qin people looked down on Bai Di, it was because Bai Di accounted for too little weight in Rong Di.
And now the situation is different, Bai Di has become the strongest clan, it can be said that Shibei should be impressed for three days, and the Qin people will not still look at Bai Di in their eyes.
In his opinion, it is far better to retreat to the territory of the Han Dynasty to rebuild his homeland in the future, as long as the Qin people are willing to cooperate and ensure his future interests, he will raise troops to help him take the three major clans.
As for the Great Han, there is also the Great Han Mission that lives here, so stay where it is cool.
This idea became stronger and stronger, and Lu Xun couldn't bear the loneliness, so he immediately sent people to the south.
Things were as he expected, this time the Qin people showed great enthusiasm, and the ghost-faced horse personally received the envoy, saying that as long as Bai Di was not an enemy of the ghost-faced army, it would be a great achievement, and as for helping to destroy the three major clans, it was not needed for the time being, and the Qin army could do it.
Lu Xun was overjoyed, he was very willing to be a traitor, but if he really attacked his former comrades-in-arms, this knife might not be able to stab him, since the Qin people were so reasonable, then continue to stand still.
While holding the benefits of the Han people, while maintaining peace with the Qin people, where to find such a good thing.
Under the crushing of the iron hooves of the Ghost Face Army, Ma Rong was the first to be annihilated, and the Chirong and Bianrong people fled in despair, temporarily saving their lives.
In the camp of the Han Mission, Ye Yunyang looked at the visitor and asked, "Why is there another banquet, what is it to celebrate this time?"
The person who came was Lu Xuan's general, and said with a smile: "There is no reason, that is, King Bai Di is happy, and he decided to invite the generals who came from afar to banquet, and specially invited Marquis Wu Yinghou to attend." ”
Ye Yunyang frowned: "It doesn't mean that the Qin army won the battle, King Bai Di thinks that it should be celebrated, right?"
The general waved his hand and said, "How is it possible, our Bai Di and the Qin people are incompatible, they killed my Rong Di people, how can we celebrate this?"
"Okay, got it, Ben Hou will be there on time. Ye Yunyang nodded.
After the general left, Chen Shilai said: "The people of Bianrong have lost the battle, and they will definitely be like Lan Di, and they will come and defect to Lu Xun, can Lu Xuan not be happy! To put it bluntly, he is celebrating the victory of the Qin people, this guy who only has interests in his eyes." ”
Ye Yun raised his eyebrows and frowned slightly, and said, "I always feel that Lu Xun has other ideas, you go and contact those people who have been won over by us, and let them look at my face tonight." ”
"Yes. ”
The reason why there is such a speculation is because he knows that Lu Xuan secretly contacted the ghost-faced horse.
Lu Xuan, the grass on the wall, before the wind blew, he couldn't help but sway on both sides, which was really hateful.
In the evening, Ye Yunyang went to the king's tent accompanied by Chen Shilai.
Today's banquet is obviously higher than usual, there is an extra plate of deer breast in the meat, and there are several more cheeses, and the wine is also a grade higher than usual.
The guests arrived one after another, and many people secretly saluted Ye Yunyang.
These people were all bought by Chen Shilai, and they were desperate for Ye Yunyang.
Lu Xun walked in accompanied by his two sons, and walked to his seat while greeting everyone.
Ye Yunyang could see at a glance that the father and son had the same excitement on their faces, and even the light flashing in their eyes was the same.
It was clear that they had agreed on something before they came.
Lu Xun signaled the start of the banquet, and as the host, he took the lead in standing up and toasting everyone.
Ye Yunyang also found that Lu Xuan was not as polite as usual to him, the envoy of the Han Dynasty, every time he had a banquet before, Lu Xuan had sent his son to invite him, but today he was replaced by an ordinary general.
In the past, Ye Yunyang's position was second only to the two princes, but now he sits with ordinary generals.
After three rounds of drinking, Lu Xuan made a slightly drunk look, and quietly glanced at his eldest son.
Lu Zhi understood, raised his cup and stood up, and said loudly: "Everyone, the current Bai Di soldiers are strong and strong, and the population of the tribe is more than twice that of before, all thanks to the wisdom and wisdom of my father. ”
"That's right!" Luke also stood up and said, "Bai Di is already recognized as the number one clan of Rongdi, and my father is firmly in the first place among all kings, so I propose that my father should be promoted to the king of Rongdi!"
As soon as these words came out, the tent became very quiet.
Lu Xun's eyes narrowed slightly, on the surface, he seemed to be overwhelmed, but in fact, he was observing everyone's reactions.
After a short period of silence, the generals of the Bai Di department stood up one after another, and loudly supported Lu Xun's promotion to the throne of Rong Di.
In the thousands of years of history of the Rongdi people, there have only been a few Rongdi kings, all of whom are people who combine wisdom, benevolence and force.
Looking at Lu Xun again, the intelligence is okay, although he is not particularly smart, but at least he is not mediocre; force is also okay, the martial artist level of the Golden Body Realm has already entered the ranks of masters; but to say benevolence, to put it mildly, this word has nothing to do with him a dime.
If he is a virtuous man, what will he do that will escape from the battle and fall on both sides of the wall?
Lu Xuan was a little flustered, and this was the matter he discussed with his two sons before the banquet.
He wants to determine his title of King Rong Di before Rong Di is completely defeated by the Ghost Face Army, so that after Daqin completely conquers Rong Di, when he is rewarded for his merits, he, the King of Rong Di, will also be confirmed.
The generals didn't know what to do, and they all cast inquiring glances at Ye Yunyang.
Ye Yunyang put down the wine glass in his hand and said, "King Bai Di has the confidence to be promoted to King Rongdi, which is admirable. It's just that Ben Hou doesn't understand a little, you are now the king of the Bai Di tribe, even if you have received hundreds of thousands of people from other tribes, but in other words, you can only manage Bai Di, and the promotion to the king of Rong Di is just a change of name, other than that, is there a change in nature?"
Lu Xun's color changed, he thought that someone would object, but he didn't expect it to be Ye Yunyang.
In his opinion, Ye Yunyang is just an outsider, and his promotion to the king of Rongdi has nothing to do with him, and the reason why he invited him over is nothing more than politeness.
As soon as Ye Yunyang made a statement, the generals immediately had the backbone, and they all said the inappropriateness of Lu Xuan's promotion to the king of Rongdi.
Lu Xuan's anger burned with anger, and the eldest son Lu Zhi retorted: "Marquis Wu Ying's words are wrong, the current Baidi station includes people from all the major tribes of Rongdi, and they all obey and serve their father, since this is the case, why can't my father be the king of Rongdi?"
"Yes, why can't you?" asked the generals in unison.
Ye Yunyang smiled: "Since you are the king of Rongdi, you should have the strength to command the entire Rongdi tribe, this marquis wants to ask King Baidi, will the king of Bianrong and the king of Chirong listen to you?"
Lu Xun blushed, it was obvious that this was impossible.
Seeing that he was silent, Ye Yunyang immediately said again: "Since you can't, you are still just commanding your own Bai Di army, what role can the three words King Rong Di play?"
Luke retorted: "Marquis Wu Yinghou is a fallacy, after my father was promoted to the throne of King Rongdi, King Chirong and King Bian Rong will naturally come to defect. The so-called name is not right, if the father is still only King Bai Di, the two families will not be able to pull down this face even if they want to come and defect. ”
Lu Xun slapped the table happily: "Luke is right, that's the reason!"
Ye Yunyang sneered: "According to the meaning of the two of them, Ben Hou feels that King Bai Di should not be promoted to the throne of King Rong Di, but should directly proclaim himself the Emperor of the Holy Heaven." ”
"What do you mean?" asked the father and son in unison.
"The Emperor of the Holy Heaven is the Emperor of the Holy Heaven Continent. Ye Yunyang said in a mocking tone: "According to the little prince's remarks just now, you only need to have a name, not to mention Bian Rong and Chi Rong, even the Great Han and Great Qin have to obediently come over and surrender to the Emperor, and swear to be obedient and loyal to the Emperor of the Holy Heaven, right?"
Hahaha......
The generals laughed uncontrollably.
The three of them made a big red face together, and they were fickle in terms of clever words, and the sum of their three mouths was not an opponent of Ye Yunyang.
