Power and Empire Chapter 3038: Song Lu
was originally a lively Teikyo Business Road, but within a day, it became less crowded,
The setting sun was in the middle of the sky, illuminating the broken ruins ahead, like a red hills. Song Lu lifted the curtain of the carriage, looked at the front with a blue face, sighed, and had to raise his hand and order the whole The Song Envoys all stopped
Standing in the middle of the road in front of Shangdao, a black young man wearing a Zhongbia robes was waving at the Song Envoys. He looked like an acquaintance of Song Lu. He was slightly fat and only medium in appearance, but he was a pair. The unusually bright eyes add some kind of strange charm to this ordinary face. Even the female family members in the envoy group looked at this young man curiously and were a little surprised
Most of these female relatives are Song Lu’s wives and concubines, crowded in the carriages behind Song Lu, poking their heads, looking outside
The royal court set up a ceremony. This is an opportunity that hasn't been seen in many years. It was brought out after the hard bubble in front of Song Lu. Although the relationship between the Yelu family and the Zhongbia court is hostile, the Song clan has now No longer in the court of China and Biya, the hostile relationship between the two sides has long since disappeared. The Song people also came here generously this time, completely representing one party’s power, and the Yelu family is also polite and dare not sloppy in the slightest. , After all, as a newly established royal court, naturally the more powers that are recognized, it also represents its influence. As the largest power in the south, the Song people naturally must do everything they can to win over.
"This man is so bold, he dare to stop my Song convoy like this!"
"I don’t know where the frivolous scribes come from. They always want to use some special methods to make themselves famous. If this kind of people are in the mountains in the south of me, they will be dragged down and killed."
"I don't know what the master is going to do this time?"
"What else can I do, even if I don’t kill it, I must order it to be driven away?" The female family members whispered and laughed, and then they saw the powerful Song Lu, who was actually sorted out very formally. I clicked on my clothes and got off the carriage uncharacteristically, and the surrounding atmosphere suddenly became silent.'
"Look, Master got out of the car!" The women were stunned.
Song Lu had already arranged his clothes and got off the carriage alone. Almost the guard wanted to keep up, but Song Lu waved to stop him.
After the second person of the Song Clan died in the Southwest, Song Lu, the third person, was already the first power under Song Que. This time he came to the imperial capital on behalf of the Song Clan, and also to the entire Zhongbia. All the forces in the empire showed their status in the Song clan, but Song Lu couldn’t think of it. He would meet this person at the entrance to the Imperial Capital.
This has to make Song Lu feel a little hesitant. His identity in the Song clan is really nothing to this person. Even the entire Song clan can avoid the destruction of the southwest this time, but this person is just a little bit hesitant. The result of pulling a hand, as for the price paid, the other party must have the ability to take it.
If you can talk to this person, you must not spread it, otherwise it will be the disaster of the Song clan. At this point, Song Lu still knows himself. He came in front of the young man, his face was polite and whispered
"Your Majesty is really interested, this time he came to the Imperial Capital himself"
"Someone owes me a big debt, hiding in the south and dare not see me, I can only wait for you here" The fat man looked at Song Lu, whose face could not hide his hesitation, and smiled lightly at the corner of his mouth
"That agreement, the Song people have fulfilled that agreement, all the documents are stamped with the Song people's seal, your majesty only needs to send someone to take over." Song Lu sighed helplessly, he knew In front of this imperial emperor, I still don’t have enough to look at. No matter whether it’s identity or strategy, I can’t compete with the opponent at all. Instead of this, I’d better pretend to be dumb. Up? The Song ceding six coastal port cities, which is destined to be stinking for thousands of years, would not do it blatantly. Song Canghuang, the lord of the Song clan, fled back to the southern mountains and was unwilling to wait even a moment in Guangmu City. Even the deck of the ship didn’t get off. It was nothing more than hiding from this person. The Song clan left the court very simply. For this reason, the Song clan was not in the court and the seal was useless, and it was useless for the empire to hold it. It’s just that Song Lu didn’t. I thought that the other party would actually be waiting here.
"It seems that the Song people are dying and I don't know yet. I wanted to help you, but it's a pity!" The fat man looked flat
I glanced at his mouth quietly, looked at Song Lu's drooping head, and said in a condensed voice
"What do you mean by your Majesty?" Song Lu raised his head abruptly. He doesn't care about the others, but the person in front of him is recognized as a figure of the **** of war, the most terrifying strategy strategist in the entire Big Six. , Even the tyrannical prairie people have reached the point of being frightened by the wind, even if the other party just sighed, Song Lu felt the ground under his feet trembling slightly, let alone the other party’s current Song clan disaster, even if it was just a word of intimidation, it was inevitable. There is a basis
"Am I wrong?"
Fatty Shen Sheng "Although the Song nationality was defeated in the Southwestern War and eventually had to withdraw from the China-Biya court competition, the foundation of the Song nationality has not changed, and the situation that the Song nationality is still the largest power in the south has not changed. But believe that it’s not like this anymore. The Long Family’s ambitious plan to expedite the Northern Expedition, hundreds of thousands of troops, and the military preparations required are simply astronomical figures. The Zhongbian court was destroyed by the Yelu Family. Linhang retreated in a hurry. I am afraid that most of the reserves have been lost. The rest, the Southwest War, should basically be exhausted! Don’t talk to me, this time the Long Family didn’t ask you the Song for military resources. Combat preparation, and the required quantity, I'm afraid that your Long Family won't be able to make up even if you sell iron!"
The fat man's voice paused, he glanced at Song Lu, whose face had changed even the color, and said dully, "It's only been less than a month for the Long Family to enter the court, and now he is planning ambitiously. The Northern Expedition, Song Lu, you are also considered a first-class government veteran in the Song clan. You should be very clear that the Long Family Army is powerful, but in terms of government affairs, it is a mess. Long Po has just entered the Central Biya Dynasty. Tang, he immediately ordered the armament and preparation for war. The plan of the Northern Expedition is arrogant. Before the Northern Expedition, the Long Family must first cut off the most probable threat. Apart from your Song Clan, who else could be? Don’t forget, the Battle of the Southwest. It’s the knife stabbed in the back by your Song clan. The Long Family has already been injured once, and will suffer a second time? Look at it, before the Long Family’s Northern Expedition, even if they don’t move their troops south, they must at least force the Song Clan to surrender enough. The guarantees and war materials of the Long Family must at least guarantee that during the period of the Northern Expedition of the Long Family, the Song Clan will no longer be able to stab a knife behind the Long Family!"
"How did your majesty know!"
Song Lu's face was shocked, his lips trembled slightly,
"Well, what does the Long Family want?" The fat man asked indifferently. Everyone is not a fool. Even if you change yourself to the Long Family, you must first severely weaken the Song Clan’s power and make the Song Clan at least two. There is no way to fight within ten years, otherwise the Northern Expedition will be a joke
Song Lu said bitterly, "Your Majesty’s right, the Long Family really made a huge request to the Song Clan. As compensation for not pursuing the Battle of the Southwest, only the First Soldier will cost 150,000, and Army food, clothing, etc. can even emptied the Song people’s centuries of hoarding, and in the end, the Song people have to collect 30,000 excellent war horses."
"Thirty thousand fine horses!" The fat man blinked his eyes. With his sharp eyes, he naturally gritted his teeth when he saw Song Lu's words. It really doesn't seem to be false. If it is true, then Song Lu's Acting is at the celebrity level,
" Your Majesty also knows, where did the horses come from in the southern mountains? "Song Lu's eyes are trembling with anger." Who doesn't know that the horses of the entire southern part of Central and Bahia, and even the horses of the Long Family, were purchased from the Empire at a high price. Now that the Long Family and the Empire have turned their faces, they have cut off the road to purchase weapons, and simply forced the Song people to buy war horses, 30,000 horses. Even if all the funds of the Song people are used out, it will be at most 10,000 war horses. If the Song people can afford 30,000 war horses, the Southwest War will not end in this way!"
"Tsk tsk... It's pitiful enough, but even so, the Song people are not enough to sell women!"
The fat man looked at the carriage behind Song Lu with a silent look. The carriage was full of women, although some of them might be Song Lu’s wives and concubines. These women are easy to recognize. Women in the southern mountains are not allowed to compare The sub-traditional women’s outfits are all dressed up in blue and blue mountain women’s costumes, and their eyes are bold and hot, but it can be seen that some of the carriages have not opened the curtains from start to finish. There are women’s decorations on the door curtain, and the two servants of the vehicle follow these servants. The Song nationality’s entry into the Imperial Capital this time is probably more than just congratulations.
After all, among the various forces gathered because of the Yelu Family Ceremony this time, there are many young and promising children. The Song people are now in a time of precariousness,
There is the full squeeze of the Long family on it, and the rebellion of the mountain people inside. If you can’t survive this catastrophe, the Song people are afraid it will become a historical term. Under such circumstances, the Song people have sought foreign aid. The behavior can be imagined,
Song Lu couldn’t hide it at all when he saw it, so he simply passed it on and said with a wry smile, “No matter how bad the Song is, it is also the number one gatekeeper in the south. It controls three thousand miles of mountains and rivers in the southern mountains. Such an identity and status is for many people. The local forces in Central and Bahrain are still quite attractive." Song Lu's voice paused, and he glanced at the fat man, saying, "And I heard rumors that the first thing Yelvhongtai did after establishing the royal court was to marry the empire. Yelu Qiyeguang, the daughter of Yelu’s family, is the most famous beauty in the grassland. I don’t know if your majesty has ever seen it? I’m afraid that the rumors are false. She is completely an ugly girl... "Song Que has something to say. I gave Fatty a glance, not going down
"Okay, I don't want to go into the question of women, right, what is the matter of the Long family giving Yeluguda's head as a gift this time?"
The fat man snorted. This Song Clan’s new second-ranked character is Mianli Zangzhen. As expected, he ridiculed the Song Clan’s selling girl. Song Lu immediately countered that he was greedy for beauty, but he turned to himself. It is impossible to refute the past, because the marriage between the empire and the Yelu family is a long-established fact, so the news has long been known to everyone in the Yelu family, but because of this, the fat man is even more sure that the second of the Song clan The number one person absolutely knows the reason why the Long family gave this gift. Otherwise, how could Song Lu dare to enter the Imperial Capital so full of Song women?
"I don't understand what your Majesty means? The Long Family is the Long Family, and the Song Clan is the Song Clan. Your Majesty should make a distinction."
A trace of complexity flashed in Song Lu’s eyes, like a candle fluttering in the wind. This is his inner struggle. The accidental appearance of the imperial emperor made others couldn’t help but look forward to it, but thinking about it now The situation of the Long family is in the midst of the sky, and his expectation is automatically shattered. The Long family is already in the main court, and it has received support from more than 20 provinces in Central and Bia, compared with the original Song family, which was only 13 The provinces are simply a world of difference. Even the Song people, who least want to see such a situation, have to admit that the Long Family is already a matter of course, and they are waiting for a northward move to formally replace the original Zhongbian royal family. /
In this case, once the news of the secret meeting between the Song clan and the imperial emperor reaches the ears of the Long Family, it is really forcing the Long Family to start a war against the southern mountains.
The Song people just tried their best to stabilize the southern mountains. The Song mountain army suffered more than half of the battle in the Southwest. After returning to the mountains, because of the Nanshan tribe’s rebellion, they are still fighting in the southern region~IndoMTL.com~ It is necessary to empty everything for the supplies provided. Once the Long Family really goes south, the Song people are afraid that it will be destroyed. If it is not like this, the second person of the Song people will not be reduced to the need to use women to serve the Song people. Looking for foreign aid, most of these women are distinguished ladies of the Song nationality. Under normal circumstances, at least the main gate lords of one place are needed. Now, as long as they can give help to the Song nationality, as long as they are willing to take out the army To prepare for the war, even some of the rich and powerful can only pinch their noses to recognize it.
has reached such an extent, even if Song Lu has a little heartbeat, he still dare not reveal the slightest tone.
"It seems you really dare not, then forget it!"
Fatty looked away like a knife from Song Lu’s face, turned around and prepared to leave, and said in a cold tone, "Although I don’t know what the Long Family’s move means, but if this matter touches my empire, and you If you deliberately conceal it, then don’t blame me for disregarding the friendship with your Song clan. Don’t forget that the reason the Song clan can stabilize the southern mountains is because the Song clan can still buy supplies from the imperial merchants. Cut off the ordnance trade with the Song people. According to the current situation of the Song people, even if the Long family does not go south, how long can you support Song Lu?"
"Your Majesty, you can't do this!" Song Lu's face changed, and then Song Lu hurriedly lowered his head, seeming to feel that he was wrong.
"So, I really came to my empire! What does the Long Family want to do? Planting or attacking the camp?" The fat man's eyes were shining like stars in the night sky. Song Lu's words basically understood the empire. It's been calculated inside!
