Section 865, 866 Do you dare to threaten the Tang Dynasty?(1/2)
When Guan Cheng came back from the Yellow River in a stinky sweat, he heard Guan Hanqing's words and was furious.
"The Tartar government bullies people too much!" Guan Cheng gritted his teeth, "Dad, let me leave the matter of crossing the river!"
Guan Hanqing was worried, "What are you going to do? Now the river patrol is very strict, and the ships are under control."
Guan Cheng sneered: "Then kill the officers and soldiers of the river patrol station and steal the ships to cross the river!"
"Son! It's not possible!" Guan's wife was shocked, "Isn't that going to die!"
Guan Hanqing narrowed his eyes. Although there were hundreds of Han troops in the river defense center, these Han troops were not in the same place. They usually wandered around and did evil. There were probably only a dozen soldiers who were on patrol and guarding the river defense center.
But even if there are only a dozen people in the venue, it is difficult to deal with.
"Mom, this may not be a death sentence. Qingyuzuihe River Defense Center has only a dozen officers and soldiers on weekdays, and the others go out to gamble for fun. As long as one or two heroes are helpers, they can be killed at night and caught off guard."
"I have two friends who have lived in love with each other, and they all hate the Tartar government. I will do the same thing with them, killing officers and soldiers, and rob ships!" Guan Cheng said viciously.
"Okay!" Guan Hanqing slapped the table, "That's it! Even if you die in the waves of your father, you will never write a playbook for Wang Silang! Son, you have worked hard to practice martial arts since you were a child, and today it finally comes in handy!"
…………
Not to mention whether Guan Hanqing's family could smuggle the Yellow River and successfully escape from the north. The envoy of the Yuan Dynasty, Bhumu, had already arrived in Luoyang and asked to see the Tang Lord.
Youdao was that the two countries had fought with each other and did not kill the envoy. After the Yuan envoy arrived, the Ministry of Rites of the Tang Dynasty had to arrange reception. Wuhumu offered two white camels as a national gift, and the Ministry of Rites also returned two Suzhou embroidery, which was of course intended.
Buhu Mu is different from other Mongolian nobles. His mother is a large Goryeo clan. He has learned Chinese since childhood and is considered to be familiar with poetry and books. He belongs to the Han law school and is also a famous minister of the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty in history.
The Kublai Khan sent a mission to Wu Mu, of course, because he was able to speak Chinese clearly.
However, as soon as Mu arrived in Luoyang, he heard many rumors.
It is rumored that the Mongol Yuan wanted to deceive the Tang Dynasty and use the excuse of redeeming Heshuo to defraud the Tang Dynasty of money and food. As soon as the money and food arrive, the Tatars would go back on their word and would not obediently hand over Heshuo to the Tang Dynasty. In the end, the Tang Dynasty lost the money and food, but still had to fight to recover Heshuo.
But Mu Ben came to "redemption of Heshuo". Now that I heard these rumors, it was like a basin of cold water was poured on my head.
Very abominable!
Dayuan really wanted to sell Heshuo, which was really true. Dahan was the emperor and Dayuan was upright. How could he go back on his word in front of the people of the world and be untrustworthy? Dayuan would definitely return the money and food to Heshuo after receiving it.
It is true that the two countries are enemies, but they are not so untrustworthy. Otherwise, what is the majesty of the Khan? It is a big taboo for the Emperor to be so untrustworthy in the world.
It is obvious that these rumors were deliberately released by Li Tang. They had already had countermeasures.
It seems that it will be difficult to sell Heshuo for a good price.
Don’t suddenly feel irritable and frowned and thought in the inn.
"The Zuo Cheng, things have changed. How should I speak when I meet Lord Tang tomorrow?" asked the deputy envoy.
Buhu Mu snorted coldly: "What else can I say? Of course, I just think that I don't know anything, and the palace will say it out. Anyway, the Khan didn't have much hope. Li Luo was cunning, why did he agree to give money and food so easily?"
Buhu Mu sighed, "I am not unfamiliar with Luoyang City. I came with the Khan back then. At that time, I was still Yundu Chi (Guard of Qiexue), and I was on duty in Luoyang Palace and stayed for a while. I didn't expect that Luoyang today would not belong to the Great Yuan."
The deputy envoy said disrespectfully: "Even the territory of Dayuan, the geese cannot fly, and the horses are exhausted and cannot run to the end. Why bother with the Han people? When you return to the grassland, will you still go south to hunt grass valleys for years? Even if the Li Tang becomes a climate, how can we fight against me Mongolian warriors?"
Buhu Mu shook his head, "Things are not as simple as you think."
Although he felt that Dahan's consideration was not that simple, he didn't know where Dahan's consideration was.
In recent years, the Khan has become increasingly concealed and cautious in his actions, saying that he is guarding against the spies of Li Tang.
This made many important officials of the court unaware of what Khan would do next. Khan's mind became increasingly difficult to figure out.
The next morning, Tang Ting Chang Dynasty, Buhumu finally followed the officials of the Ministry of Rites to enter the palace.
"The foreign minister Boha Buhu Mu has seen the Tang Lord." Buhu Mu treated his chest with a humble and arrogant manner, just called the king of the country, not the emperor.
Although the Tang Dynasty became more and more powerful, enough to compete with the Mongolian Yuan, and even vaguely suppressed it, the Yuan court never recognized Li Luo's throne and still regarded Li Luo as the monarch of the Tang Dynasty.
In their opinion, the Emperor of Dayuan was the only emperor in the world. What happened to Li Luo? Li Luo was just a traitor of Dayuan!
Although Mu's mouth was hard, his heart couldn't help but pound. It was really the pressure of Tang Lord Li Luo, too strong!
The Tang Lord just sat quietly on the dragon throne. The pressure of the Qiankun in his hand made him tremble, for fear that he would accidentally turn into powder.
He only felt a pair of indifferent eyes falling on him, as if he was looking down at himself in the clouds, high above and not disobeying.
He only felt the power of the emperor in the Khan. He originally thought that there was no other person in the world who could have such power.
But unexpectedly, there is still Lord Tang!
Buhu Mu took a deep breath, erected his back, and kept thinking about sweating in his heart to cheer himself up.
Tang ministers in the palace were all looking at Buhu Mu coldly at this time, and Buhu Mu, the man who had seen big scenes, felt cold.
"Envoy Yuan, Your Majesty is not only the lord of a country, but also the Emperor of China, the Emperor of the Central Plains, and the authentic Han family! Your name is inappropriate, so you have started again."
Minister Shang Xiong first attacked.
Other ministers asked not to change their words, calling them "His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty".
Buhu Mu sneered: "In my heart, there is only one emperor, that is, I, the Mongolian Khan. If you want to change your words, you must not."
"Forget it." Li Luo stopped impatiently, "The Tang Dynasty does not need to be recognized by the Yuan court. I, the emperor, received the order from heaven and inherited the orthodox Song Dynasty, nor does it need to be recognized by the Mongol Khan. Yuan Envoy, you just say it, what's going on?"
The Yuan envoy was a minister of Kublai Khan, how could he admit that Li Luo was the emperor? It would be strange if he could admit it.
But Mu bowed and said, "The Lord of Tang knew that the great sweat had long regretted the people in the world, and often mourned the hardships of living beings... Therefore, in order to avoid being miserable to the creatures and suffering, the people were willing to return to Hedong and Hebei. However, the need for the withdrawal of the Dayuan from Heshuo was very great, and he also had to appease all civil and military officials, so the Tang Dynasty needed to send Dayuan 50 million yuan of grain, thinking that the fee was paid."
The civil and military officials of the Tang court had known the purpose of the Yuan envoy, and they would sneer when they heard this.
"It's extremely absurd!" Wu Zhenlou, the Minister of Rites, came out and scolded, "Heshuo was originally the homeland of the Han family, so why do you want to redeem it!"
Wu Tu, the Minister of War, snorted coldly, "I, a great Tang Dynasty soldier, and I am invincible in the battle. The soldiers are eager to make contributions and are eager to fight day and night. Naturally, they use force to restore Heshuo. How could they spend money to redeem it? Do you think the Tang Dynasty is the Zhao Song?"
The Minister of Finance issued a report and said, "Your Majesty, you must not. The treasury of my Tang Dynasty is empty, where can I have money and grain to redeem Heshuo? The words of the Yuan envoy are ridiculous. If you spend money to redeem your hometown, you must impose a large tax, and the people will be in trouble. It is better to go back to the north again with a dignified and upright."
Buhumu was speechless when he heard this. No money? He didn't have money to redeem Heshuo, but he had money to fight again? Are you cheating? He just didn't want to give money.
"Lord Tang, this proposal to redeem Heshuo is really a move by my Dayuan to cherish the people. Otherwise, if the swords and weapons are together, how many soldiers and people will be killed or injured by the Han people? Does the Tang Dynasty care about their lives? Why do you have to use troops if you can spend money? That is a military force."
The ministers of the Tang court almost got happy. If you want to talk about the war, the Meng Yuan would be embarrassed to talk about the Tang Dynasty? Since Temujin started, did the Mongolian Yuan not fight or use troops for a year?
Li Luo said lightly: "There is a territory in the West called Roma. For the lives of the soldiers and the people, I am willing to use Roma to return it to Heshuo. How about it?"
What?
Bumu's eyelids hopped and forced a smile, "Lord Tang was joking. This Roma Kingdom is not Tang Tu, but was captured by my Dayuan Iron Cavalry. How can it be exchanged for Heshuo?"
Li Luo nodded slightly, "Then Heshuo is a Han territory, not a place of the Mongol Khanate. What qualifications do you have to ask me to spend money to redeem it in the Tang Dynasty?"
"Mongyuan poisoned the Central Plains for decades. I plan to ask your Khan to pay 100 million in compensation. Will your Khan agree to give it? If he agrees, I will have money and grain to redeem Heshuo."
Buhumu said boldly: "Foreign ministers ask the Lord Tang to know that most people advised the Khan to kill all the Han kings, Li, Zhang, Liu, Wanyan, and Chen, and confiscate their money and grain. But the Khan stopped them. It can be seen that my Khan is really a kind lord. If the Lord Tang is unwilling to redeem Heshuo, then most people will ask my Khan to do this bad strategy again."
Is this a threat?
"Bold!" Yang Hanming shouted, "Are you threatening the Tang Dynasty? What a bold one!"
"Your Majesty, I would like to kill Yuan Envoy not Hu Mu!"
"Your Majesty, Yuan Envoy is crazy and rebellious, and you can hang your head in Luoyang!"
"Don't Hu Mu, you can't live anymore!"
All the ministers came out one after another, demanding that Hu Mu behead him.
"Forget it." Li Luo said lightly, "Buhu Mu, you just said this, it is a death sentence. I will not kill you this time. Go back and tell Kublai Khan--"
"Mongolia's sword is sharp, and my Tang Dynasty sword is sharper. If you dare to commit another heinous crime and be cruel and unrighteous, even if you escape thousands of miles away, I will kill you. Your tribe will no longer exist. Don't say that you are not prepared for what you say."
When Buhu Mu heard these plain but murderous words, he suddenly felt goosebumps all over his body.
The lord of the Tang Dynasty was also a Han Chinese, why was it completely different from the Emperor of Zhao Song? Is this murderous intention still the king of the Han Chinese?
The Tang army is good at fighting and the Tang country is rich. This is definitely not an empty threat from the Tang Lord.
"The foreign minister said withdrew..." Buhumu said as if he was sweating like pulp and quickly offered to say goodbye.
It is useless to keep it, and I dare not keep it anymore.
Before, he thought Tang Ting could pay back the money by sitting on the ground, but he was prepared to bargain. Who would have thought that Tang Ting was so tough that he refused without thinking about it.
Bumu left the Tang Palace and broke out in cold sweat. He had no intention of staying in Luoyang, so he immediately asked the Tang Dynasty Ministry of Rites to send him across the river and return to Dadu north.
As soon as the Yuan envoy left the city, he met a group of scholars from the east.
It was Zhang Yanghao and his group.
"It's the envoy of the Yuan court." Zhang Yanghao understood at a glance.
What he didn't know was that in history he had a lot of connection with Buhumu. He just became his nobleman and recommended him to be an official in the Yuan court. The two had a close relationship.
But now, there is no chance of intersection anymore.
Seeing that Yuan Qiong looked depressed, it was obvious that he had not achieved his goal in Luoyang.
Along the way, Zhang Yanghao and others had already heard about the Yuan envoys coming to Luoyang. The people on the way said that the Mongolian Yuan sent envoys to ask the Tang Dynasty to spend a large price to redeem Heshuo. But it was actually a deceptive act.
Moreover, the imperial court had no money and food. If he really wanted to redeem Heshuo, he would have to pay a lot of taxes.
How could the Holy Emperor agree? Of course, he could only continue the Northern Expedition.
As for dead people, how can there be no one who will never die in war?
To be continued...
