Chapter 5 More than 2,000 people

A mission of more than 2,000 troops, is this an envoy?

Of course not, this is not the case, this is not only to take the opportunity to knock on Silla, but also if the Great Sui wants to pass by land, it will have to pass through Goguryeo and Baekje.

Not long ago, General Yin Shou attacked Gao Baoning, Goguryeo actually wanted to shield Gao Baoning, and in the end, although Gao Baoning was handed over, it was the corpse that was handed over, and Gao Baoning could fight against the Great Sui, and there was a high probability that there was the influence of this group of people behind it.

This is the right time to take the opportunity to challenge him.

Will they agree to the Sui army's envoy to Silla under the pretext of the Dao?

But it would be impossible for their king to agree if he was in his right mind, after all, not everyone could do it without being surprised.

They would not agree to the Great Sui's plan, and the Great Sui could always use this as an excuse to attack Goguryeo, and even threaten it with force when necessary.

What if they agree? It was really a double happiness, overjoyed, and happy from the sky.

Then let the envoy team cross the border to Silla, and the envoy team of more than 2,000 people, this surplus can be thirty or fifty people, or thirty or fifty thousand people, depending on the demand.

Yang Jian figured it out, and laughed: "Amour, I didn't expect you to have such an idea, okay, just do it according to this statement, Pei Shiqing, you choose the envoy to go to Youzhou, and send another envoy to Silla by water, salute first and then soldier." ”

"Yes, Your Majesty."

"You come back from a tiring journey and rest for a few days, and I directly ordered Donghai County and Youzhou to do the things you are preparing, and when the day comes, I will set off."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, the minister is terrified."

instructed Pei Shiqing, and said to Yang Guang: "The ship of Luoyang Shipyard has been built, you will see if this ship can go to the sea at that time, if you can, you will find a way to get it out, bring some guns and send Pei Shiqing's team to the sea, although it is said that the salute is the first and then the soldiers, but in order to avoid special circumstances, the mission that goes by water will also bring the soldiers directly." ”

"Father is wise."

Yang Guang didn't say much about the war, and Yang Jian didn't arrange anything for him except for the warship, because Yang Yong was in charge of the land of Northern Qi, which was his territory, and Yang Guang should not interfere.

Sure enough, Yang Jian immediately ordered someone to call Yang Yong to return to Beijing, after the Turks were pacified, several countries in the northeast were the places that Yang Jian should focus on now, and Yang Jian should maintain a state of training, so that the soldiers and generals of the Great Sui would not be lazy.

……

At this time, Yang Yong, who was in Luoyang, quickly received the emperor's news and returned to Daxing City tomorrow, and also said the reason.

Yang Yong handed the letter to Yuan Xiaoju, who was overjoyed after reading it.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, if it can be done this time, it will also be a great achievement."

Yang Yong said noncommittally: "My father is so troublesome, little Silla, disrespectful to the Great Sui, wouldn't it be good if the army was directly wiped out?" ”

"Your Royal Highness, Your Majesty's move is obviously Xiang Zhuang's sword dance is intended for Pei Gong, where does he care about Silla, but Goguryeo."

Yang Yong thought for a while before he understood: "Yes, this is obviously aimed at Goguryeo. ”

"His Royal Highness the Prince, now that the King of Jin has the merit of pacifying the Turks, you also need to make some military achievements."

"I didn't fight the Turks before and I returned with a big victory."

Yuan Xiaoju naturally wanted to say that the two were not on the same level, but Yang Yong must be uncomfortable in this way, so he said: "Your Highness, the more military merits, the better, and leading the troops to fight, so that Your Highness can gather more generals and generals, just like the old minister planned for you to collect the Shandong Gate lord clan before, you have also seen the benefits." ”

During the period of Yang Guang's Northern Expedition, Yuan Xiaoju arranged for Yang Yong and a group of gate lords in Shandong, and many wealthy businessmen in Huaiyang would meet at least once, and these people also thought that there was someone to rely on, and when the prince of the dynasty was willing to gather power, they were naturally very happy.

Yang Yong also privately formed an organization with the most famous group of people to bind their interests to each other.

It is enough to have the name of the crown prince, and even he didn't expect what this group of people gave him.

The world's corporal clan is so rich, and the rare treasures that have gone to the sea are sent in an uproar, which makes Yang Yong a little fluttery for a while.

Yuan Xiaoju said: "Your Highness, Your Majesty now attaches great importance to the development of firearms, this firearm has been pinched in the hands of His Royal Highness the King of Jin, and Weichen has also seen its power, if we don't have firearms in our own hands, we can't even feel at ease, Your Highness." ”

Thinking of firearms, Yang Yong's eyes were also fierce, this new weapon that has only appeared in the last one or two years has shown its might on the battlefield this time, and the emperor wants to develop it vigorously, and the holder of such a weapon is his own brother who has a bad relationship and a conflict of interest, Yang Yong can't even sleep well every time he thinks of this.

"Uncle Yue, do you mean that you can take this opportunity to seize the second-hand firearms arsenal?"

Yuan Xiaoju's face was worried: "I'm afraid it's a little difficult to capture, after all, His Royal Highness the King of Jin can't watch us take it, and if it touches the bottom line, I'm afraid that the dispute between Your Highness and the King of Jin will expand more and more." ”

"Disputes are disputes, look at the second child and his appearance, it seems that he is arguing with me, I am the prince, can I still be afraid of him?"

Yuan Xiaoju didn't say it explicitly, he didn't want Yang Yong and Yang Guang to go head-to-head, as far as his understanding of the two was concerned, once they were really compared, the outcome was unpredictable.

Yang Yong is far ahead of Yang Guang only in terms of his age and the current status of the crown prince.

Yang Guang has a city government that far surpasses Yang Yong, scheming, and personal ability, and in just these two years, Yang Guang actually controls more things than Yang Yong.

And Yang Guang has the favor of the queen's mother, and Yang Yong is clearly out of favor with the queen's mother.

The best choice now is not to break the balance, Yang Yong don't be stupid, don't do anything wrong, he is the eldest son, there is a greater etiquette than the sky above, there is no precedent from ancient times to the present that the eldest son was deposed under the premise of being healthy and thinking and not doing anything wrong.

As long as Yang Yong keeps it, the identity given to him by the etiquette law will always press Yang Guang, no matter how good and smart Yang Guang is, unless he rebels, the order of succession to the throne will always be under Yang Yong.

But if he rebelled, he would be against his father's Great Sui, and at that time, as long as Yang Yong can control this group of nobles and ministers, he will basically be safe, and the history of the Northern and Southern Dynasties for hundreds of years.

Those who get doctors win the world.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, we are not trying to rob His Royal Highness the King of Jin's firearms arsenal, and that is not the arsenal of His Royal Highness the King of Jin, that is the arsenal of the Great Sui, you are going to the northwest, this is Your Majesty's meaning, naturally we have to change the equipment of the soldiers better."

Yuan Xiaoju smiled slightly at this time and looked a little sinister: "Besides, how can an arsenal be enough in such a big place as the Great Sui, in order to cover the northeast front and the future southern front, at least two more firearms arsenals must be built." ”

"What do you mean?"

"Let Your Majesty give an order, and let the King of Jin come to the land of Northern Qi to build a firearms arsenal for Your Highness."
