Volume 5 Chapter 740 Women can save the country, and the Ming Dynasty lays out the world
For Wei Chi Jingde, who are members of the court, doing this is also the first time that a big girl has sat in a sedan chair.
In the past, the Tang Dynasty's conquest of various countries always had a grand reason.
It's just this Siam, well, I really can't find anything wrong with it in a short time.
Should I say it or not, the Han dynasty at this time, although the etiquette has been broken for a long time, it still has to be a little faceless after all.
"Duke E, how did you come up with this idea?" Just when everyone was blocked by a river, Hou Junji asked with a playful face.
"Think?" When Wei Chi Jingde heard this, he said indifferently, "What do you need to think about, aren't you in a hurry now?" Daming's side has already conquered the city in Tianzhu, and we haven't put a single fart on our side.
And looking at those soft persimmons in Tianzhu, it is estimated that they will not be able to stop His Highness's offensive, when the time comes, Your Majesty's face, do you want to see it?
Now it is said that it is a southern expedition, but in fact, to put it bluntly, it is those two who are fighting the law, as courtiers, at this time, they have to only defile themselves to solve problems for their own majesty. ”
After Wei Chi Jingde finished speaking, everyone also sighed, what is this called.
The two fathers and sons are fighting, and they are unlucky, who is going to reason with this?
"Ladies and gentlemen, there is a bridge ten miles south of the country, which can cross the river." At this moment, a family came to report.
Hearing this, Wei Chi Jingde immediately stood up and said: "Yes, cross the river, I heard that fifty miles across the river is Siam Natai Province, and there are about more than 10,000 defenders in the city. ”
With that, everyone got up, prepared to get on their horses, and went straight to the temporary bridge.
Soon, everyone had arrived at the bridge, and when crossing the river, Li Ji suddenly said: "Leave more than 100 people, one is to consolidate the bridge, so that the army can cross the river in the future."
In the final analysis, this Siam, we have no experience in attacking before, so don't capsize in the gutter. ”
When the people heard this, they did not say much.
Soon, the people crossed the river and went straight to Natai Province.
At the same time, Na Thai Province.
Yin Mengtai of Natai Mansion is like an ant on a hot pot at this time, which is called an anxious.
In his several years as an official in Natai, he had never been in such a hurry.
Datang, that place he was fascinated by, he only longed for that great country before, but he never had any worries.
How could they not understand the Han dynasty?
For hundreds of years, the Han dynasty, whether it was declining or brilliant, has always only had the habit of conquering the northern nomads, and rarely had the experience of going south.
This made them feel less of a sense of crisis in Datang.
Now, I heard that several princes of the Tang Dynasty were heading south with hundreds of soldiers and horses, how could he not be worried?
"Fu Yin, His Majesty's messenger has arrived." Just as Monte was fidgeting, someone rushed in.
As he spoke, the messenger followed.
Seeing Montei's restless appearance, the messenger bowed his hand and saluted, and then said: "Don't worry, His Majesty the King has sent an embassy, just behind, this time, in the end, it is also my Siamese or not, ask the reason, and I will give an explanation to the Duke of Tang Eguo." ”
This is the helplessness of small countries.
Even at this time, you still have to find the problem from yourself first.
If the identity is changed, Mo is a minister, even if he is the concubine of the King of Siam who ran to the territory of the Tang Dynasty, and the King of Siam dares to take his personal guards to the north, the Tang Dynasty dares to take his troops to the south on the grounds that he is provoking the border trouble between the two countries.
This is the strength of the country.
Obviously, Siam does not have such confidence.
"Is this a matter of confession?" When Meng Tai heard this, he was a little furious, "Now that the princes of the Tang Dynasty are about to come to the city with hundreds of generals, don't I even let go of a fart in Siam?"
This official is playing, it is to ask for war!
Keeping the enemy out of the country, when will you pass what mission!
What this officer wants is the will of sending troops! ”
Montaina is angry!
Although he is the governor of Natai Province, Siam and the Tang Dynasty have always admired Han culture, so he has been influenced by the Han dynasty in many aspects.
Even the official system is the same, don't look at him Mengtai can cover the sky with one hand in Natai Province, but the military power of Natai Mansion is not in his hands, but in the hands of the generals of the Natai camp.
Unless there was the king's will, the Natai camp was not at all at the disposal of Montei.
But what is more interesting is that the general of the Natai battalion, his military orders can only be valid within the barracks, and if there is really a war, the Natai battalion is only dispatched by the Natai Fu Yin.
In other words, the military order of the general of the Natai camp cannot leave the barracks, and the Natai province must get the king's will if it wants to dispatch the Natai camp.
It should be said or not, Siam has not learned anything else, so it is difficult to talk about it, but this way of checks and balances has really been passed on......
"It's just a few hundred people, why bother with Fu Yin?" The messenger did not panic, "The Han Dynasty, there has been no precedent for the southern expedition since ancient times, their eyes will only be fixed on the nomads in the north, compared to them, we are not a threat to the Han Dynasty." ”
"Precedent?" Meng Tai laughed when he heard this, "Do you know what a precedent is?" Precedents are meant to be broken! What if we set a precedent?
Also the nomads in the north, don't you know that the Tang Dynasty is now in Jingsui in the north, and the world has been peaceful for a long time?
Those arrogant generals in the Tang Dynasty are worried that they don't know how to make contributions? ”
He's so angry......
Why should I, Siam, leave my destiny in the hands of others?
It's all about this time, shouldn't I show my Siamese strength?
While the two were arguing, on the other side, Siamese Prime Minister Lan Ganxu had already led the delegation north to meet Captain Chi Jingde and his party.
"Who's in the way?" Wei Chi Jingde saw that someone was blocking the way of his group, so he immediately asked the horse.
Lan Ganxu was not nervous, and said with a smile: "The old man, Lan Ganxu, the minister of Siam, has met the grandfathers of the Tang Dynasty. ”
The tooth man on the side was also hurriedly translating. (I won't write about the translation process in the future, just know it.) )
Hearing that it was the Prime Minister of Siam, Hou Junji, Li Ji and others also dismounted.
Seeing that Wei Chi Jingde was still sitting on horseback, Li Ji pulled him and whispered, "Etiquette is still required!" ”
Wei Chi Jingde dismounted and said: "It turned out to be the face of the country, and it was just right, the minister of state said to the prince of the country, what do you mean in Siam, you have deceived the marriage to the father-in-law, is it really good to be deceived by the palace?"
If it weren't for the diplomatic relations between the two countries, today the palace would be calling friends to find justice, but taking me to the Tang Iron Horse, searching the mountains and checking the sea, and finding out that guy! ”
Hearing Yu Chi Jingde's words, Lan Ganxu looked at the people brought by Yu Chi Jingde and the others, and discussed a few words with one of the people beside him, and his heart suddenly became settled.
This time, he naturally brought with him a lot of officials who had been envoys to Chang'an in the past, and during the discussion just now, he also determined that the people brought by Wei Chi Jingde and others this time are all generals of various families, which is a good signal, indicating that this time is just a personal grudge, and has not yet reached the level of a dispute between the two countries.
"The Duke of Eguo can rest assured, such a bad act has already alarmed His Majesty the King, and this time His Majesty the King sent his ministers to investigate the matter thoroughly, and he will definitely give an explanation to the Duke of Eguo!"
"It's better to have an explanation!" Wei Chi Jingde is also unforgiving, and said immediately, "The old man has been galloping on the battlefield for more than ten years, and he has not suffered such a great shame, if Siam can't give the old man an explanation, then the old man will go to seek justice on his own, but it really can't be done, the old man will go back to His Majesty to ask for justice!"
Datang has never deceived people, but there has never been a precedent for being bullied!
I think that at the beginning, Ashina bullied my Tang Dynasty, but for three years, this thief is only worthy of serving people in my Chang'an with dance, presumably the envoys of Siam should have also seen Ashina's aggressive dancing! ”
"That's nature, that's nature." While listening to the tooth man's translation, Lan Ganxu discussed with the others, and then nodded again and again, took advantage of the situation, clapped his palms, and saw that on the rows of carriages behind, a group of beauties suddenly walked down, "Your lords are temporarily camping here, and this official will go to investigate this matter."
During the investigation, they waited on the grandfathers. ”
When they saw this group of beautiful women, Wei Chi Jingde and the others glanced at each other, and they all saw the sadness in their eyes.
This is the helplessness of the country's weakness.
What kind of face does a country that exchange its women for peace have left in the world?
They never imagined that in a few hundred years, there would be a successor named Song who would stage this scene again, but the identity at that time was very different.
"Joke, I'm waiting for the dignified Tang Grandpa, can't even enter this Thai city, let me wait for the guest to live in the wilderness, which is your Siamese hospitality.
Old man, there are people in your team who have also been to Chang'an, and when you waited for me to enter Chang'an in the past, how could you wait like this! When Hou Junji heard this, he immediately pointed to the person behind Lan Ganxu and said.
"It's all the old man's misarrangement." Lan Ganxu was not nervous at all, and hurriedly said, "Everyone, please come here." ”
He was just trying to do it, so naturally he wouldn't deliberately provoke Wei Chi Jingde and these people.
If it was just Wei Chi Jingde, he was actually not afraid, but there were several princes on the other side, so he couldn't afford to offend.
No matter how merciful the emperor of the Tang Dynasty is, he may punish a national duke, but there are so many crimes, and the military of the Tang Dynasty estimates that they can't even get a few decent generals.
Of course, at this time, he was also pondering what the intentions of Wei Chi Jingde and the others were.
Conquering Siam?
Just a few people are obviously talking about dreams.
Could it really be because Wei Chi Jingde's mother-in-law ran away and made him angry?
As for what he thought, Wei Chi Jingde and the others didn't care, he was a little disappointed at this time, these guys were too soft persimmons.
You're tough!
Stand up!
It's okay to be arrogant.
Lao Tzu took advantage of the situation to serve you in a pot, and as a result, the old man was also a little embarrassed by such cowardice.
Unable to find an excuse to be furious, a group of people had no choice but to follow along towards Natai Mansion.
Along the way, Lan Ganxu was accompanied by a smiling face.
Seeing his face, Wei Chi Jingde thought in his heart, if one day my civil official in the Tang Dynasty is also like this, the old man must kill him first, it's so disgusting!
When they reached the gate of Natai City, an interesting scene happened.
Having received the news, Montai closed the city gates!
Seeing this scene, let alone Wei Chi Jingde, even Lan Ganxu was dumbfounded.
"Mengtai, what are you doing, hurry up and open the city gate for this official!" After asking people to ask the specific situation, Lan Ganxu couldn't sit still at all, he had already sent someone to let Meng Tai open the city gate, but Meng Tai ignored the people he sent out, and in desperation, he had to go out in person.
"It's a bit meaningful, a magistrate, who will be related to the dynasty outside the city gate, it should really be a long time to see." Hou Junji stroked his beard and watched the big drama in front of him for a long time.
Wei Chi Jingde and others also looked like watching a play.
Not to mention, this scene is very rare in Datang.
Above the city gate, Meng Tai saw Lan Ganxu walking out, so he took an iron horn and said, "It turned out to be the face of the country, sorry, sorry." ”
"Yo, isn't that thing made by Daming?" Seeing the tin horn, Wei Chi Jingde said, "All the things of the Ming Dynasty are now sold to Siam?" ”
"What do you think?" Hou Junji shook his head and said, "The old man heard that there is a Changming Restaurant in Siam City, do you dare to believe it?" ”
Speaking of this, he also sighed and said, "Today's Da Ming is no longer the original Wuxia Ameng." ”
Earlier, when Lan Ganxu heard this, he immediately said angrily: "Since you know that it is the official, don't open the door quickly!" ”
"I'm sorry, the minister doesn't know, recently my Natai Mansion has been repeatedly patronized by thieves, just now, several big households in the city have been looted by thieves, the official finally blocked it in the city, is preparing to catch turtles in an urn, if it is opened this time, if the thieves take advantage of the chaos to run out, there is no way to explain to the people in the city, right?" The meaning of Montei is obvious, I will not open this city gate.
He would not allow the Tang Dynasty's army to enter Natai Mansion with a swagger.
In his words, Natai Mansion can be lost, but it must be killed by Datang with a knife and a shot, but if you want him to bring in the thief camp, it is impossible!
After listening to the tooth man translating the conversation between the two of them, Wei Chi Jingde and the others stepped forward with a smile and said: "Your country is a little interesting, you are the prime minister of the court, and you were stopped outside the city by Yifu Yin, which looks at the world, and it is estimated that you can see it in Siam." ”
"Let the grandfathers see the jokes." Lan Ganxu also blushed, and scolded Na Mengtai half to death in his heart.
"Not really." Wei Chi Jingde said with a smile, "If the prime minister doesn't have a job with this mansion, do you want to let the old man help?" ”
"Does Grandpa have a clever plan?" As soon as Lan Ganxu heard this, he also wanted to test the depth of Wei Chi Jingde.
When Wei Chi Jingde heard this, he laughed: "To deal with such a villain, why do you need any clever plan, one arrow is enough!" ”
After that, the real family cooperated and handed over a bow.
"I can't help it, I haven't reached that point." Lan Ganxu hurriedly stopped.
What kind of joke, if you really want to solve it like this, you still need him to be Wei Chi Jingde?
Seeing this, Wei Chi Jingde didn't insist, but just smiled: "Then the prime minister, please hurry up, I'm tired from waiting, so I won't let me wait for the dignified Tang Guogong and sleep under the city gate, right?"
That's not hospitality......"
