Chapter five hundred and eighty seventh ??? The first beauty(1/2)
Area of Liaodong County.
There was heavy snow on the sky, and the temperature reached the point where dripping water turned into ice. In the summer, Youzhou was already a bitter and cold place, not to mention Liaodong County located in the northeast of Youzhou.
The land here is vast and sparsely populated, and the people generally gather near the city, and it is very rare to have villages outside.
Sima Yi sat in a carriage like a carriage, surrounded by some tiger soldiers and more than a thousand Goguryeo elite soldiers, and headed towards the domestic city.
He lifted the curtain of the car and looked around thoughtfully.
"In the absence of [Kang], people can freeze to death in the house in winter. If there is a kang, it will be much better."
"In the near future, our dynasty will move the capital to Youzhou. This is the northeastern location of Jingzuo and will flourish."
The cold wind blew on his face, and it felt like a knife was shaved. Sima Yi put down the curtain of the car and continued to take the car to the northeast.
Along the way, Sima Yi saw a lot and learned a lot.
Goguryeo. This bitter and cold country has its citizens and kings, but they don’t know what kind of behemoth their enemies are.
I don’t know that their enemies want to set their country to Yanzhou.
The emperor has a big appetite, really big.
He wanted to integrate the nearby barbarians with the Han people and turn them into the people of the Liang Kingdom.
The Emperor Shenwu Yingluo is a wise monarch.
Sima Yi was excited and hoped to follow such a wise monarch to do something big, but he felt biting cold.
He felt that the emperor wanted to kill him.
Why did the emperor want to kill him?
Sima Yi was puzzled.
After a long journey, Sima Yi arrived outside the city.
It was also snowing heavily that day.
Prime Minister Qi Qiong led some officials to welcome Sima Yi.
Sima Yi took the Emperor's Scepter and got off the carriage. Qi Qiong immediately bowed to Sima Yi and said, "The country is in the lower country and Qi Qiong has met the envoys of the upper country."
Goguryeo's monarch and ministers had great ambitions, but when they did not have absolute strength, they could maintain respect, so they would maintain respect.
Even if you are humble, you must make peace with Liang State or form an alliance, and keep Liaodong County as your top priority.
"Shizhong, I have met Sima Yi for a while." Sima Yi also bent over politely. The two of them exchanged greetings outside the city for a while, then they each got on a carriage, went into the city, and arrived in the palace.
Qi Qiong personally led the way forward and led Sima Yi to the main hall.
King Bogu of Goguryeo knelt on the throne. After meeting Sima Yi, he asked Sima Yi and Qiong to sit down.
Bogu showed shame and said to Sima Yi: "It is my sin to come to Goguryeo if you have to work hard to get the carriage and horses to come to Goguryeo."
Sima Yi shook his head and said, "The carriage is walking very smoothly, not hard."
Bogu said again: "Does the envoy come from Liaodong all the way? Do you feel cold?"
"It's very cold." Sima Yi looked at Bogu thoughtfully and bowed.
"It's not just cold, it's just cold. A pot of hot water throws out and it immediately turns into ice slags." Bogu sighed, and then said: "The lonely Goguryeo is established in this ice and snow. People's lives are extremely hard."
Sima Yi did not respond this time, but he understood. What the king meant was that in my wilderness, water turned into ice, so don’t worry about Liang Kingdom.
Bogu complained a few more times, then showed his seriousness and asked, "I don't know if the emperor of the Supreme Kingdom sent an envoy to come from thousands of miles away. Do you have any instructions?"
Sima Yi bowed and said bluntly: "I want to ask the king for his return to Liaodong."
Bo Gu and Qi Qiong looked at each other, with a smile in their eyes. These 50,000 elite soldiers were displayed in Liaodong. If Liang State wants to recover, they have to use troops, right?
Do you use a mere envoy, open your mouth?
Bogu said humbly: "Please give me mercy. Goguryeo is really bitter and cold, and the people hope to have a warmer land. But the lonely attack on Liaodong was taken from the hands of the Han Dynasty, not from the hands of the Shang Kingdom."
Although his attitude is humble, his words are not humble.
Two words.
Don't return.
Sima Yi's eyes flashed with a sarcasm, but his attitude became softer. He said, "I'm not hiding the king. Foreign ministers also believe that for our dynasty, the land of Liaodong is just a useless rib, and it's a pity to abandon it. Since the people of Goguryeo need a warmer land, it's nothing to give it to Goguryeo. It's just that the emperor of our dynasty is wise and brave, brave and good at fighting. Now the army is in Youzhou again, I'm afraid that the emperor will send troops to Liaodong in anger."
Bogu's attitude became stronger and shook his sleeves and said, "The attack is the power of the Shang Kingdom, and defense is the duty of the small country. If the Shang Kingdom must send troops to Liaodong, then our Goguryeo military and civilians will fight to the death."
"Please listen to me." Sima Yi shook his head, looking unhappy to cause trouble. He bowed and said, "At that time, I persuaded the emperor to attack Liaodong, but the gains were not worth the loss. There were still rebellions such as Yuan Shao, Cao Cao, Sun Jian and others in our dynasty that needed to be wiped out. It would be better to sell Liaodong to Goguryeo."
"Sell?"
Bogu and Qi Qiong's face showed strange colors, and they looked at Sima Yi in surprise.
Sima Yi nodded and said, "The emperor has a strong personality. If he lost Liaodong for no reason, he would definitely attack Goguryeo. But if Goguryeo was willing to give out 100,000 stones of grain, 1,000 kilograms of gold, 3,000 kilograms of silver, and 10,000 kilograms of brass. The emperor used Shanhaiguan as the boundary to divide the territory with Goguryeo. He promised that he would never attack Goguryeo."
At the end, Sima Yi added: "The food that arrived in Youzhou is enough to reach 100,000 stones."
Transporting grain for thousands of miles will consume a lot.
Maybe the food from Goguryeo to Youzhou would be left with only 20,000 to 30,000 shi left.
Sima Yi deliberately said these details to paralyze Goguryeo's monarch and ministers.
He believed that Goguryeo's monarch and minister would agree.
Everyone knows that the emperor of Liang State is not easy to mess with. The Xianbei and Wuhuan people all ended up being very tragic. Now Goguryeo dares to compete because the infantry guards the city, the Liang army sends troops thousands of miles away, and it is difficult to transfer food and grass.
Moreover, it was cold and cold in Goguryeo, so I was afraid that the Liang army would not be able to adapt to the local conditions.
It’s still the four cliché words [relying to the distance and not accepting].
But the threat from Liang Dynasty was a real thing.
Sima Yi had a good understanding of Bo Gu and was an ambitious king. For such a wise monarch, food, grass, gold, silver, and brass were not necessary.
Territory and population are necessary.
The monarch and ministers of Goguryeo will definitely agree.
Bogu, Qi Qiong looked at each other and immediately showed a look of surprise. Bogu couldn't wait to confirm to Sima Yi: "Please take the words of the envoy seriously?"
"It's true. Please write a letter of the country and send an envoy to Guangyang County. The emperor of our dynasty will sign a letter of the country immediately. As long as the king can handle the material issues, he will use Shanhaiguan as the boundary to divide the territory of the two countries. Liaodong and areas outside Liaodong belong to Goguryeo."
Sima Yi nodded heavily and said.
"Okay." Bo Gu nodded heavily and agreed immediately. Sima Yi guessed correctly. Although they were preparing for war and defending Liaodong, they still had some fear of the Liang Dynasty and the Liang Dynasty emperors.
You can use money to obtain territory and ensure peace.
Why not do it?
But after thinking for a while, Bo Gu's face showed a dismay and said to Sima Yi: "I will not hide the upper envoys. The country's land is poor, and I'm afraid I can't get a hundred thousand stones of food for a while. Can some specialties such as ginseng and red ginseng be replaced?"
Sima Yi didn't care, he was just paralyzed anyway. But after pretending to think about it, he said, "I can't make the decision. I'd like to ask the king to send an envoy who can speak and explain it to the emperor himself."
"But he was speechless." Bo Gu bowed to Sima Yi and apologized.
Then there was nothing to say.
The banquet was ready long ago, and Bogu ordered people to come and sing and dance. During the meal, Bogu raised his glass of wine and said to Sima Yi: "The envoy. This wine is still [Chief Wine]. For us Goguryeo people, it is better to drink this sip of strong wine in winter than anything else."
Sima Yi was not surprised by this.
[Chief Wine] has been spread all over the world and sold abroad. Especially in cold places such as Goguryeo, Sanhan, Liangzhou, and grassland, the sales volume is particularly good.
Because [Cake Wine] is monopolized by the court and has also brought a lot of profits to the court.
Soon Sima Yi pretended to be drunk and was helped by eunuchs sent by Bogu to help him leave.
The singing and dancing were withdrawn, while Bogu and Qiqiong continued to drink and eat meat.
"The Prime Minister. Although Sima Yi said it was the Emperor of Liang that he persuaded him. But who was the Emperor of Liang? If he hadn't had this intention, how could he be persuaded? The Emperor of Liang was still Yuan Shao, Cao Cao, Sun Jian and others in the country. He is now stationed in Youzhou, transporting grain for thousands of miles. He can take grain, gold, silver and brass from us as supplies, which is also considered to be smart in the abacus."
Bo Gu's eyebrows were full of bright red eyes, thinking he was sure to win.
"What the king said is that Liaodong County is ours. With our strength, it is easy to attack Lelang and the three Koreans. This northeastern land has all returned to Goguryeo."
Qi Qiong also nodded with a red face, looking ambitious.
Bo Gu nodded and said, "No matter what, you need to be careful before this matter is done. The selection of envoys is very important. Choose someone who is good at speaking and proficient in Luoyang Mandarin."
"Yes." Qi Qiong also gave up seriously.
This matter is very important, but Bogu thinks it is a sure win. He is drunk and said, "You have done it for me too."
Qi Qiong's face showed a look of dismay, but he bowed and replied: "Yes."
In Goguryeo, the king had great power, but did not reach the point where all rights were concentrated. In the east of Goguryeo, there was a ethnic group living.
He claimed to be [Shanxiong Family].
Their population is more than 100,000, and the leader is called [Shanxiong Town] and he is appointed as a general. He has more than 10,000 soldiers, which belongs to a semi-independent force.
This person named Fuya is the daughter of Shanxiong Town. This year, it is rumored that the country is beautiful and beautiful.
Bogu's queen died of illness a few years ago, and the queen's rank was always hanging. Two months ago, Bogu heard about Fuya's reputation and was unbearable. He wanted to further integrate with the Shanxiong family, so he planned to marry Fuya as the queen.
