"Empire Hegemony" Chapter 798
In Jiangnan province, in the living room of a luxurious private house in Qingpu Mansion, Imperial Envoy Sun Dong sat at the head, listening carefully to the latest situation report from several travel-worn officials.
These subordinate officials set off from the royal capital and arrived in Jiangnan Province at a fast pace all the way, bringing the latest situation and intentions of the imperial court.
"Master Sun, the imperial guards lost two consecutive battles on the battlefield, losing more than 50,000 people, and the rebels captured more than 30 towns in the Hezhong province. The situation has deteriorated, and the court is in a difficult situation," an official reported. With the latest situation.
?Sun Dong, the imperial envoy stationed in the Jiangnan province, did not expect the situation to take a turn for the worse and the rebel army's combat effectiveness to be so strong.
Thinking that once the fourth prince seized the world, he, the direct line of the former prince, would definitely be liquidated, so Sun Dong also had a sad face.
"Didn't Your Majesty say that King Khan would send wolf riders to steal the rebels' rear?" Sun Dong couldn't help asking.
After all, King Khan in the north has nearly a million soldiers under his command. Once they can send troops to the south, the rebels will be attacked by the enemy, and the pressure on the court will be greatly reduced.
"King Khan in the north is also a person who takes advantage of the fire to rob. Although he promised to send troops, he wants the court to pay the military salary in advance, and his mouth is so huge that the court will not be able to get it together in a short time."
"And they also said that if they really can't make up the military salary, they can also send troops, but the imperial court will cede Wuyuan Province and Daling Province to graze them."
"It's simply unreasonable!"
After the imperial envoy Sun Dong heard what the officials said, he was also furious, because the Khan's appetite was too great.
"What is the court going to do?" Sun Dong asked again.
"The imperial court is currently busy suppressing the rebels, consuming countless money and food every day, and there is no way to pay the wolf riders a huge military salary of tens of millions."
"So Lord Yan has persuaded His Majesty to agree to King Khan's request, and exchange Wuyuan Province and Daling Province for their troops."
Sun Dong asked urgently: "Does Your Majesty agree?"
"Your Majesty has agreed."
"That is the land handed down by the ancestors, how can it be easily transferred to others, Your Majesty is confusedyou should be cautious." Sun Dong changed his words hastily.
"This is also a last resort. If you don't agree to King Khan, the rebels will be difficult to eliminate. When the court loses one or two provinces, it will be the world." The subordinate officials couldn't help but sighed.
The current Far Eastern Dynasty can be said to have constant internal and external troubles. Although Sun Dong can be regarded as an important minister of the court, he also feels powerless.
"Did the imperial court agree to the recruitment conditions proposed by the Qinghe Army?"
After being silent for a while, Sun Dong asked the court about the Qinghe Army's opinion.
"The imperial court disagreed with the canonization of the bandit chieftain, King Chen Ziang, mainly because Mr. Yan felt that this case should not be made, otherwise everyone would follow suit, and the imperial court would fall into a passive position."
"What about the other conditions proposed by the Qinghe Army?" Sun Dong frowned and asked.
"The imperial court agreed that the bandit chieftain Chen Zi'ang would concurrently serve as governor of Jiangbei, Jiangnan, and Yunshan provinces. As for the military pay requested by the bandits, they would collect it themselves in these three provinces, but they were ordered to go to Pingyang province to suppress the rebels within one month. ¡¯¡± replied the officer.
After hearing the imperial court's intention, Sun Dong still had a sad expression on his face, because he knew that the Qinghe army was very powerful, and I am afraid that these conditions of the imperial court would hardly satisfy their appetite.
Although the imperial court did not make many concessions, as the Minister of Qincha, Sun Dong still tried his best to recruit the Qinghe army. This was not only his merit, but also beneficial to the imperial court.
Because once the Qinghe army surrendered to the imperial court, not only would the imperial court have many more elite troops, but the money and food in these provinces would also alleviate the urgent need of the imperial court.
After learning about the court's will, Sun Dong, Minister of Qincha, soon went to visit Chen Zi'ang, the new general of the Qinghe Army, and decided to talk again.
"I'm sorry, Master Sun, my commander-in-chief has gone to inspect the front line of Tongshan Mansion."
Sun Dong, an imperial envoy of the imperial court, had attended Chen Ziang's wedding banquet, so the guards of the Qinghe Army guarding the mansion also knew him.
"I wonder when Marshal Chen will return?" Sun Dong asked with a smile.
The guard said with embarrassment: "I don't know about this."
"Thank you."
After Sun Dong thanked him, he sat back in the carriage again.
"Go, go to Tongshan Mansion."
Sun Dong didn't want to waste time now, and soon decided to go to Tongshan Mansion again.
When Chen Ziang, who was inspecting the front line of Tongshan Mansion, heard that Sun Dong, the imperial inspector, was chasing him again, Chen Ziang also smiled wryly.
"This imperial envoy is really a persistent person." Chen Ziang joked.
?Because after Sun Dong arrived in Jiangnan Province, he first went to the provincial capital, then chased after Tongshan Mansion, and then went to Qingpu Mansion.
Almost always followed Chen Ziang's buttocks, wherever Chen Ziang went, he followed there, quite as if Chen Ziang would not agree to submit to the court, and he would not give up.
"Well, it's not easy for Mr. Sun to travel around alone, let's not waste him anymore, you go and talk to him, it's fine for us to submit to the court, but it is possible to sign a non-aggression treaty. "
Chen Ziang was also moved by the persistent spirit of the imperial envoy Sun Dong, and decided to send Li Qiye to talk.
Li Qiye has now returned to the command headquarters from Yunshan Province, serving as chief of staff of the Qinghe Army and concurrently chief of military affairs.
"By the way, by the way, tell Master Sun that if he is willing to submit to my Qinghe Army, I can give him a provincial chief of administration." Chen Ziang added with a smile.
Li Qiye also smiled: "I will definitely convey the meaning of the commander."
Li Qiye quickly received the imperial envoy Sun Dong who had chased him to Tongshan Mansion under the order of Chen Ziang.
Because Sun Dong did not see Chen Ziang, the general of the Qinghe Army, he was still quite disappointed.
But when Li Qiye said that he represented Chen Ziang with full authority, Sun Dong happily stated the latest conditions set by the court.
"The court is too petty. It can canonize Luo Mingyuan as the Southern King, why can't it canonize my family's commander-in-chief?" Li Qiye was quite dissatisfied when he heard the court's conditions.
Luo Mingyuan has always been a loyal general to the court, and provided a steady stream of money and food to the court, while the Qinghe army is a bandit army that has made the court look ashamed. Can it be the same?
Although Sun Dong was full of slander in his heart, he still had a smile on his face.
"The imperial court also has its difficulties, and I hope Master Li can understand."
"But I can assure Marshal Chen that as long as he surrenders to the imperial court and leads his troops to suppress the rebels, he will definitely be crowned king."
In order to win the surrender of the Qinghe Army, Sun Dong also deliberately drew a big cake.
Li Qiye naturally wouldn't take Sun Dong's guarantee to heart, because it had no effect at all.
"Since the imperial court can't make my commander-in-chief king, the Qinghe army can't agree to surrender to the imperial court." Li Qiye's attitude was tough, without the slightest retreat.
Previously, the Qinghe army thought that they could temporarily surrender to the imperial court and buy some time to develop their strength.
However, after investigation, Chen Ziang discovered that once he surrendered to the imperial court, even temporarily, he would lose the support of his brothers from the Qinghe Army. Because the brothers from the Qinghe Army had a blood feud with the imperial court, he finally changed his mind about submitting to the imperial court.
Although Sun Dong had already expected the result of the negotiation breaking down again, he was still quite disappointed when he heard it.
"Please also Master Li and Marshal Chen think twice, after all, the imperial court has shown enough sincerity to allow Marshal Chen to concurrently serve as governor of three provinces. This is unprecedented"
"Well, for the sake of Mr. Sun's hard work, our Qinghe army is willing to sign a non-aggression treaty with the court, and we will not violate each other's waters. Please tell the court, Mr. Sun."
Seeing the disappointed imperial envoy Sun Dong, Li Qiye also conveyed Chen Ziang's intentions.
In addition, Li Qiye also enthusiastically asked Sun Dong to join their Qinghe army and serve Chen Ziang.
Hearing that Chen Ziang wanted to poach him instead, Sun Dong also smiled wryly, what kind of thing is this.
"I appreciate Marshal Chen's kindness. As a minister of the imperial court, I, Sun Dong, eat the salary of the imperial court. I should be loyal to the imperial court and the affairs of the monarch. Please forgive me."
Sun Dong also rejected the Qinghe Army's solicitation, and soon left and sent the Qinghe Army's new conditions back to the capital.
"The thieves simply don't know what's good!"
The new emperor was also furious when he saw that the Qinghe Army rejected their offer of security again.
"Order Nanwang to send troops to conquer the bandit army, I want to kill the arrogance of the bandit army!"
"Think twice, Your Majesty. Now Nanwang's army is no match for the bandit army. Once a war breaks out, Dongjiang Province may not be able to protect itself."
Yan Jing, the new upstart of the imperial court, is not stupid, and knows the specific situation in the southern region.
"Then what to do, they refused to recruit security again and again, they simply didn't pay attention to the court!"
Yan Jing said: "Your Majesty, as long as the rebels don't help the rebels, let them go. After the rebels are suppressed, they will go back and deal with them slowly."
Seeing that there was really no way to recruit the Qinghe army, although the new emperor was angry, after hearing Yan Jing's words, he did not dare to do anything to the Qinghe army.
Because the situation of the imperial court is already worrying, if the Qinghe army joins the rebel camp, the pressure on them will increase greatly.
Sun Dong, the Qincha Minister in the Jiangnan Province, soon got the imperial court's order, that is, the imperial court appointed him as a plenipotentiary representative to be responsible for signing a secret non-aggression treaty with the Qinghe Army.
