Start Being a Vassal King Today - Chapter 148

[Chapter 148]

vast grassland, white tents stretch for dozens of miles.

Countless cattle and sheep are looming in the grass.

Beidi people riding horses walk through the tall grass, driving cattle, sheep and horses.

Guo Tu’s heart shrank with tension.

He knew that these grazing Beidi people were soldiers with scimitars, bows and arrows.

This time, Beidi’s army came to Yanguan.

Although he only asked for the release of Kutu, he and Yuan Li still smelled something different from it.

People from Beidi can mobilize many important people in such a way.

Will the next attack on Yanguan be far away? What will the Yuan

family do then?

Will the Yuan family’s hard-earned troops really be exhausted?

At that time, no matter whether they win or lose, the Yuan family will have no status in Dasong when all the soldiers are gone.

Instead of this, it is better to leave a way out for yourself.

“Go in.” A general walked out of the white tent, breaking Guo Tu’s meditation.

Showing a humble smile, Guo Tu nodded and entered the king’s tent with a low body.

“Look up.” A rough voice sounded.

Guo Tu raised his head and saw a muscular Beidi man in his thirties sitting on the sheepskin blanket in the middle.

Guo Tu said: “Guo Tu, a guest of the Yuan family in Yanzhou, has seen King Enke.”

“Yuan family, hum, you still have the face to come to the grassland, aren’t you afraid that I will kill you?” Enke stared at Guo Tu like a beast .

Guo Tu only felt his legs tremble a little, and he said, “My lord, it’s not the fault of the Yuan family. Zhang Kang didn’t tell us his plan with the Black Iron King’s Tent. If Master Yuan knew about this in advance, he must It is impossible to let King Yan live, and our Yuan family also wants King Yan to die.”

Enke’s livid face eased a little.

During this autumn hunt, King Hei Tie’s account lost troops and generals, and even his own father was captured.

For him, this is a great humiliation.

He has made a promise in front of Khan that he must use King Yan’s head to wash away the shame.

It’s just that winter comes too fast, Yanshan Road is narrow, and it is impossible to pass large siege equipment.

Even if he leads the tribal cavalry to go south again, there is no guarantee that he can capture King Yan.

Therefore, Khan and he set their sights on Yanguan.

This time the Khan dispatched the troops of the three king’s tents to go south to deter the Emperor Dasong.

But there was no plan to siege the city.

The walls of Yanguan City are high and thick, so it is not so easy to take down. You must concentrate on attacking with all your strength.

But due to the war in the extreme north, this will have to wait until at least the next year.

Thinking of this, he looked at Guo Tu again, “Tell me, what’s your purpose for coming here?”

“Master Yuan would like to reconcile the old relationship with the Hei Tie Wang Zhang and establish a deep friendship.” Guo Tu whispered.

“Friendship?” Enke suddenly laughed.

After the laughter ended, he suddenly said angrily: “What is the Yuan family in Yanzhou that deserves my friendship with Beidi? I will kill him first when Yanguan is broken in the next year.”

“Next year?” Guo Tu was startled.

Secretly thinking that Beidi is really going south? If this is the case, the Yuan family will be in danger if they cannot please Beidi.

Thinking of this, he was so anxious that he forgot to answer for a while.

At this moment, Enke said again: “However, it’s not impossible, but your Yuan family wants to do something for us in Beidi.”

“What is it?” Guo Tu was overjoyed.

“Mo Di’s head!” Enke narrowed his eyes. “If you agree, I will speak well to your Yuan family in front of Khan. Even if Beidi enters the customs, your Yuan family will have a place in the future.”

Guo Tu heaved a sigh of relief, “I should go back and discuss this matter with Master Yuan, but why does Your Majesty not want King Yan’s head?”

“Hmph, I want to cut off King Yan’s head myself, it’s not up to your Yuan family.” En Ke waved his hand, “Go away, when we see the sincerity of your Yuan family, we can talk about friendship again.”

“Yes, Your Majesty.” Guo Tu bowed and slowly exited the tent.

Looking again at the large tent of the Black Iron King’s Tent, he left with his guards.

…

Jinling.

The 800-mile express from Yanguan has arrived here.

When the news of Beidi’s soldiers approaching Yanguan came out, the entire capital was panicked.

“Father, my son said at the beginning that King Yan’s capture of Kutu was not only futile, but guilty, but now he really angered the people of Beidi.” In the

court hall, the sixth prince Zhao Fang spoke harshly.

Dayou Yanwang is the first scourge of Dasong.

“It’s just nonsense. Beidi is very ambitious. After encroaching on the capital of Ningjin, he intends to go south. What’s the matter with King Yan to capture Kutu? Da Song and Beidi will have this battle sooner or later.” The eldest prince scolded angrily.

His mother had already told her about Concubine Mi.

In his heart, he already regarded King Yan as his own, so he naturally defended him.

On the dragon chair, Zhao Heng had a slight worry in his eyes.

He didn’t expect that a Kutu would cause such a thing.

If Mule Hongzhen is really angered, Beidi will attack with all his strength.

It is hard to say whether Mo Di can hold Yanguan.

If the Yanguan Forbidden Army is wiped out, even if the powerful army drives Beidi back, there will be no decent army in the hands of the royal family to restrain the powerful.

“A group of rats, have you forgotten the hundreds of thousands of dead souls in Ningjindusi? Beidi, the jackal, has long had the ambition to devour the great song. Sooner or later, there will always be a battle. Since he is approaching Yanguan, it is better to kill him.” I have defeated Kutu, and I will show off my military power.” An old man with gray beard and hair shouted loudly.

As soon as his words fell, eight generals came out, “Your Majesty, I am willing to fight Beidi.”

“Old General Yang, what kind of fight do you have? Have you fought again? Do you want to have another fiasco of Ningjindusi? At that time, the country will not be a country.” A civil servant almost cried out.

“Coward!”

“This is for the sake of the common people in the world.”

“Those dead soldiers will not die with peace.”

“…” In the

court hall, ministers and generals with different political views had a quarrel.

Zhao Heng rubbed his brows in pain.

He looked at Dou Wei who had never spoken, and said, “What do you think, the Prime Minister?”

“The battle of Ning Jin Dusi, I have not recovered my vitality so far, and I think that the war should not be started lightly.

” He is the Shangshu of the Ministry of War, Han Zheng.

Another purple-robed official also stood up at this time, “Second minister.”

He is the Minister of the Household Department, Xie Duan, the uncle of the court.

“The final general seconded the proposal.” One of the generals came out, and it was Xiao Cheng, the general of Zhen Guo.

“Second officials.” Fan Xinglun, Minister of the Ministry of Rites, said loudly.

“Second officials.” Wang Zi’an, Shangshu of the Ministry of War, stood up.

“…”

Seeing this, Zhao Heng already had some calculations in his mind.

More than half of the eight major clans do not approve of the use of troops.

The Liang family and the Ma family did not agree, but they did not object either.

And those who fought fiercely were generals and officials who had experienced that battle.

“In that case, let Kutu and the others go to Yanguan immediately,” said Zhao Henglang.

In his heart, he didn’t want to fight like the powerful people.

He didn’t have enough confidence to beat the Beidi people.

Instead of this, it is better to hand over Kutu and continue to praise the country’s peace and prosperity.

…

the sky prison.

When the jailer opened the prison door, Kutu tensed up.

But when he saw an official coming with a smile, and the jailer behind him still holding brand new clothes, he suddenly let out a breath.

“What do you want to do?” Charha asked with his eyes wide open.

The official was not angry, but respectful, “Lord Kutu, you can go back to the grassland.”

Kutu was shocked, and he said excitedly: “What did you say?”

“You can go back to the grassland, the imperial army will escort you to Yanguan ’” the officer repeated.

After confirming the news, Kutu looked at Charha and Tam, and the three had smiles on their faces.

“Why?” The long-term depression on Kutu’s face disappeared.

The official did not directly say that Beidi’s army was coming to the city, but said: “This is your Khan’s request. The emperor is kind and cannot bear to destroy the friendship between Dasong and Beidi, so let you go back.”

“Khan…” Kutu read In a word, his face was full of shame.

Then his eyes suddenly became sharp, and he said wrongly to Charha and Tam: “Put on clothes, we are going back to the grassland to plead guilty to Khan.”

Charha and Tam nodded.

Putting on their clothes, the three knocked the soldiers away and walked out of the prison.

I saw that three horses had been prepared outside the prison.

Hundreds of Great Praise Forbidden Army were waiting by the side.

The three got on their horses and followed the imperial army into the main street of Jinling City.

“Your Majesty, look.” Charha pointed to the beautiful woman who was buying rouge by the roadside, with primitive ambition in his eyes.

Kutu came to Jinling ten years ago, so he is no stranger to this place.

But it seems to be more prosperous here than it was ten years ago.

“That’s why I’ve been admonishing the Khan to go south, to take over Dasong’s country, and every Beidi person can sleep on a bed made of silver,” Kutu said.

“When the time comes, I will ask a hundred women to give birth to me, hahaha.” Chaerha laughed.

Tam said: “As long as you are good at this, if I am, I will let the Khan divide the people into four classes, the people of Beidi will be the first class, the people of other tribes on the grassland will be the second class, and the slave countries like Goryeo will be the third class.” People, Dasong people are the lowest fourth-class people, who have been our slaves and handmaids for generations.”

“Hahaha…” Kutu laughed loudly.

They said these things without any scruple, regardless of the imperial guards around them.

Some soldiers of the Imperial Army clenched their fists, feeling deeply ashamed.

But this is the emperor’s order, and they cannot disobey it.

“That’s Kutu?” On the third floor of a restaurant facing the street.

Nine handsome young men sat on the window seat.

At this time, they looked at the team passing by, and a young man in white robe asked.

“Well, it was him. He went back, and a war was avoided.” The blue-robed youth said.

“You Yuan family must have peed out of fear.” The black-robed youth opposite the blue-clothed youth sarcastically.

The officials dispersed, and the matter of returning Kutu was like the wind blowing all over Jinling.

People in the imperial city are naturally sensitive to politics.

What’s more, the identities of these nine people are extremely respected.

According to folk sarcasm, not being a prince is better than a prince.

“Nonsense, who was my Yuan family afraid of in Yanzhou? In the court, which one of yours is taking the lead again?”

It was none other than Yuan Li’s eldest son Yuan Ce who was ridiculed by the black-robed youth.

He has been studying in the Imperial College, saying that he is studying, but in fact he is just dawdling.

After staying for three years and passing the palace examination, he will be able to enter the court as an official.

After his words fell, the originally lively building suddenly fell silent.

Only a woman’s Qingwan voice sounded faintly, “The king of Yan led his troops in a bloody battle to the death, and finally captured Kutu, extolling the prestige of the great praise. If you know that Kutu has returned to the grassland, I don’t know how to feel heartbroken. In contrast, there is no one in Jinling City One is a man.”

Hearing this, the nine people all looked embarrassed.

However, they were surprisingly afraid to speak a word.

This is the princess of Changle who is well-known in Jinling and loved by thousands of people.
