Chapter 289: Master and Servant Deliberations
Shang Xiuxun's martial arts were learned from the ancestral swordsmanship of the merchants. The merchant was originally a military general, after witnessing the chaos in the world, he was disheartened, and brought his people to this place, saw the unique geographical location and high-quality pasture of Pegasus Ranch, and established a fortress here to raise horses for generations.
The merchant's war horse raising technology and the sword forging technology of the Dongming faction have reached the pinnacle of this world. The good horse breeds selected from outside the Saiwai, coupled with the high-quality pastures and fertile land here, and the unique breeding technology of the merchants, the good horses produced are the best in the Middle Earth.
After Shang Peng sent someone to take Shang Zhen away, Shang Peng bowed down to Shang Xiuxun and said apologetically: "That Shang Zhen saw that Li Shimin's gang defeated Zhang Xutuo and captured Henan, and the momentum was huge, so he thought that this collusion with outsiders and plotted for the position of the lord, today His Royal Highness the Crown Prince found out this person to eliminate the harm, which can be regarded as solving a hidden danger in the future, this is the old minister's dereliction of responsibility, I can't escape the blame..."
"Please take a seat with His Royal Highness the Prince, you have found out this person, how to solve this is our Pegasus Ranch family matter, Peng Lao, leave this matter to the second deacon to do, be sure to deal with it cleanly, his family, take the initiative to get involved with the family members, assassinate and execute, leave no one alive, and leave a living mouth without knowing."
Ye Lingfeng smiled and accepted the invitation of the beauty owner, he sat on the banquet next to Shang Xiuxun, smelling Shang Xiuxun's faint jasmine fragrance, and suddenly smiled slightly, in a good mood.
At this moment, "Report! A spy rushed in sweating: "Li Tianfan's army is attacking fiercely, and the three generals Xu Shiji, Wang Bodang and Luo Shixin take turns to attack with elite soldiers, and our defense line is about to be unable to hold it!" ”
Shang Xiuxun frowned slightly, and said to Ye Lingfeng beside him: "His Royal Highness the Prince, don't be impatient, this little enemy will be killed by me personally, His Royal Highness came from afar to help me, it is already a great favor, and I will be grateful when Xiuxun comes back." But the matter of cooperation still needs to be discussed, and it cannot be decided easily, if you bother Your Highness any more, you really can't ...... in your heart."
Ye Lingfeng got up and smiled: "The mall owner doesn't need to be so wary of me, I really want to seek cooperation sincerely this time, I said before that I came to bring three big gifts to the mall owner today, two gifts have been revealed, and the third part is myself, I am willing to personally lead the troops to repel the enemy, but I can completely obey the command of the mall owner." ”
"I don't have any other meaning, I just hope that the mall owner can think about the cooperation with our royal family after this battle, and the specific matters of cooperation between the two sides can be discussed again, as long as the mall owner can nod and agree, let go of his prejudices against my father and agree to this cooperation, I will inform the owner of the responsibilities and obligations of Pegasus Ranch after sorting it out."
Shang Xiuxun thought for a moment, nodded and agreed, and said solemnly: "Okay, Your Highness is so sincere, I have no reason to refuse, as long as this battle is won, I can be the master to cooperate with the royal family, or with His Royal Highness the Prince, I will be responsible for the key points and constraints in the future, and I will ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to help in this battle." ”
After Ye Lingfeng took Fu Junwu away, Shang Xiuxun personally transferred 10,000 elite soldiers and handed them over to him, which is already one-tenth of the troops in the Pegasus Ranch, and can hand over these people to Ye Lingfeng as an outsider to lead, it can be seen that this beauty owner is also very daring to use people, and can be described as a heroine who does not let her eyebrows go.
"Emperor Yang of Sui issued four orders to deal with the Li valve who was in chaos in the Tiger Leaping Gorge of the Grand Canal before, does the Li valve have any countermeasures at present? Peng Lao. Shang Xiuxun looked at the battlefield outside where the knife was sharpening and the soldiers were facing each other, and suddenly asked out loud.
Shang Peng replied: "Emperor Yang of Sui designed to trap the valve owner Li Yuan, but the people in Li Yuan are all old foxes who have become fine, how can they be fooled?" Li Yuan had already raised the banner of rebellion in Taiyuan ten days ago, announced the ten major crimes of Emperor Yang of Sui, and established himself as king! This step is considered a dangerous move, Li Valve is too aggressive, if the trading is not good, I am afraid that he will lose all the games. ”
"Is it just self-reliance? What does Li Valve do? Shang Xiuxun raised her eyebrows slightly and asked.
"No," Shang Peng shook his head and said: "Li Feng divided all the forces of Taiyuan into three routes, then Li Shimin first contacted Xue Ju, the overlord of Western Qin, and promised to make a heavy profit, so that Xue Ju could attack Chang'an. Although Xue Ju's 150,000 army, under the fortified city of Chang'an, attacked the city for several days, failed to break through, and had to retreat, it also frightened the courage of Yang Yu, the acting king who was responsible for staying in Chang'an. ”
Ignoring the opposition of the royal family, Yang Yu ordered the Sui army marching to Taiyuan to return to Chang'an, and could only defend the Yellow River crossing, Fenglingdu. Li Guan took the initiative to declare himself a vassal to the Turkic Khan, paid a huge bribe, and asked the Khan to intervene to solve the siege of the royal army, and the troops of the Turkic Yingyang general Liu Wuzhou and Wuwei general Liang Shidu assisted from the side, and it only took three days to successfully escape control. ”
"Li Shimin's plan is beautiful, the Yingyang general Liu Wuzhou, the Wuwei general Liang Shidu and others, all the forces that raise troops in the north, all look at the faces of the Turks. At this time, the Turkic forces were strong, more than the Xiongnu in the early Han Dynasty, and every time they threatened the border, they could indeed stand firm by relying on the help of the Turks, but they were afraid that they would lose the hearts of the people. ”
"When the first emperor was there, the country was just established, and it could still be united with the outside world, and the Turks did not dare to invade, but at this time, the country fell apart, the war raged, and the Turks immediately became the most powerful force in the north, and it is really unknown whether the current imperial court can resist the attack of the Turks."
"In addition, those decent people in the martial arts seem to be very optimistic about this up-and-coming Li Erlang, he advocates union with the Turks, which is an indisputable fact, it is nothing more than seeking skin with the tiger, those monks and nuns don't know if they are really dizzy, such people dare to support, if the Pegasus Ranch is in this troubled water, I am afraid that it will be a traitor to the Han people in the future."
"Although Li Shimin has not been valued by Li Yuan, he has made too much credit in the process of Li Yuan establishing himself as the king, and he has to be sealed and allowed to open his teeth to build a mansion, he is famous, many famous ministers and good generals have come to vote, like the eldest grandson Wuji, Wei Chi Jingde, Pang Yu and others, personal power has increased greatly, if we choose to support His Royal Highness the Prince, this person is afraid that he will become a great enemy."
Shang Xiuxun bowed his head slightly after hearing this, waved his hand to signal Shang Peng to retreat, and then explained: "After this matter, we will discuss it later, if anything big happens to Li Valve's side, report it to me immediately, especially this Li Shimin's movements, and always find out where he is going." His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, you go and keep an eye on it, this battle must not be lost, and he can't have an accident, and we can't explain to the royal family. ”
"Yes, owner!"
