Three hundred and eighty-fifth chapter kill the messenger
Cheng Wang looked at the Korean monarchs and ministers in the hall, and countless thoughts came and went in his mind.
As the highest-ranking official in Liaodong County, Cheng Wang has far more information than anyone else.
Not only did he know the attitude of the imperial court, he also heard that even the Eastern Palace, which had always been opposed to war since Empress Lu, unexpectedly expressed support this time.
The imperial court is already deploying troops and generals.
The military supplies shipped to Liaodong County from Yan State have begun to increase.
Cheng Wang glanced at the trembling North Korean monarchs and ministers in the palace.
A crazy idea emerged from the bottom of his heart.
This idea is indeed crazy!
but……
Cheng Wang looked at the hundreds of soldiers inside and outside the palace, as well as the Korean monarchs and ministers in front of him who did not dare to show their dignity in front of him.
The story of Su Qin, Zhang Yi and Lin Xiangru emerged from the bottom of his heart.
"When a man is born in this world, he should make great achievements and bring glory to his ancestors!" Cheng Wang thought in his heart.
His chest rose and fell violently as a result, and the ambition deep in his blood began to grow vigorously, and in an instant, it took over all his will.
Driven by his ambition, Cheng Wang had a straight face and said to King Wei of North Korea who was kneeling in front of him: "King of North Korea, you are so brave! How dare you deceive the king? I'm not afraid that once my Han family's heavenly soldiers arrive, the whole country of North Korea will become a king.
Noodles?"
Hearing this, Wei Zhun felt uncomfortable in his heart, but he did not dare to express any dissatisfaction. He could only lower his head deeply, kneel on the ground and said: "Angel, I am wronged. Xiao Wang has always been loyal to the Han Dynasty and served the Han Dynasty."
The vassal ministers are guarding the Eastern Yi, and they will strictly abide by the agreement with Emperor Taizong Xiaowen of the Han Dynasty and not dare to cross the border. Please let the angels observe clearly!"
Wei Zhun's weakness poured the first bucket of water on Cheng Wang's ambition.
The ambition that was encouraged quickly overwhelmed all the scruples and fears in Cheng Wang's heart.
At this moment, he completely ignored that he was in the capital of North Korea. Except for three or five followers, he had no power to rely on. And the target of his provocation, the Kingdom of North Korea, had tens of thousands of troops. Even if one person spits out
A mouthful of spit is enough to drown him.
But people are just so weird.
If the Korean monarchs and ministers were a little tougher, they would never be so unscrupulous.
Without the fear and scruples, Cheng Wang spoke with all his teeth and claws, and was aggressive.
"Whether it is wrong or not? How do I know?"
"King of Korea, please go to Chang'an and explain to the emperor face to face!"
After saying these two sentences, the entire hall suddenly became so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.
The chest of King Weizhun of North Korea was rising and falling. Obviously, he was really angry!
Even Cheng Wang was shocked by his arrogant behavior.
He didn't even know why he would say such death-seeking words.
Wei Zhun took a deep breath and suppressed the urge to recruit people to drag out the hateful Han Dynasty official in front of him and cut him into pieces.
"I have to endure it..." Wei Zhun said to himself in his heart.
He is a master of ninjutsu.
Wei Zhun was only a year old when Wei Man, the founder of Korea, died of illness.
Therefore, he was actually raised as a puppet by noble ministers.
In the past thirty years, he has been a puppet for at least twenty years, and he only gained power in Korea by killing the powerful nobles.
During the days when he was a puppet, Wei Zhun understood a truth - when you are not strong enough, just bow your head and be a grandson!
As for the national and military strength of the Han Dynasty, even if a fingernail leaked out, it was enough to crush North Korea to death...
With this thought, Wei Zhun bit his teeth hard, and then swore in his heart: "Today's humiliation, I swear, one day, I will definitely seek repayment from the Emperor of the Han Dynasty!"
"As long as my prince who is on an envoy to the Xiongnu brings back a message from the Xiongnu Great Chanyu, I will no longer have to be angry with the Han emperor!"
In Wei Zhun's view, the Huns were stronger than the Han Dynasty. As long as he could climb the high branches of the Huns and have the protection of the Huns, the Han Dynasty would not dare to touch him.
Then, when the Xiongnu invaded the Han Dynasty, he would lead the troops and avenge today's killing.
"I want to annex Liaodong and move the capital to Jicheng!"
With such ambition, or hypnosis.
Wei Zhun kowtowed and said: "You are an angel, but Xiao Wang has been weak and sick since he was a child. How can he withstand the rush of carriages and horses!"
"Please forgive me, angel!"
Cheng Wang was stunned. He never expected that the King of Korea would be such a weak person.
Then Wei Zhun continued: "How about this, Xiao Wang sends a minister to follow the angel back to the Han Dynasty, and go to Chang'an to explain to the Holy Emperor?"
Wei Zhun was really scared too!
He had read the edict of the young emperor of Chang'an, and the words contained murderous intent.
Now, I don’t know whether the high branches of the Huns can be climbed or not.
What if the Xiongnu Chanyu is unwilling to fight the Han Dynasty for Korea, and he angers the Han Dynasty emperor? Once the Han Dynasty army arrives, he really has no confidence to fight those elite Han troops, not to mention the true power behind Korea.
, Ma Han, and Wo Ju are all devoted to being pro-Han and even think about the two or five boys inside.
If these guys stab North Korea in the back, North Korea will really be destroyed if it is attacked from both sides!
Especially for the Mahan people, Wei Zhun knew very well that as soon as the Han army moved, the Mahan people would definitely come out in full force to settle accounts with him.
But he didn't have the guts to go to Chang'an.
no solution anymore!
I can only send one minister to Chang'an to vent his anger on the little emperor of the Han Dynasty, and flatter him by the way!
Wei Zhun really didn’t want to do this, but reality forced him to do it!
After all, North Korea is still too small!
Too far from heaven and too close to the Han Dynasty, we are destined to rely on the Han people to survive.
but……
As long as the Xiongnu Chanyu is willing to protect North Korea, then this strategic dilemma will no longer exist!
With this thought in mind, Wei Zhun prostrated on the ground, kowtowed and said, "Please ask the angel for permission!"
Cheng Wang looked at Wei Zhun, thinking over and over again in his heart.
It seemed that Wei Zhun refused to go with him to Chang'an even to the death. His plan of surrendering a country alone and opening up territory for the emperor without any bloodshed was in vain.
But Wei Zhun's performance further stimulated his courage.
Many ideas that he had never dared to think about before now emerged one by one.
Every idea is so crazy!
After much deliberation, Cheng Wang finally decided.
"If you want fame, how can you achieve it if you don't do it?" Cheng Wang thought to himself.
But he said: "Then who are you going to send to Chang'an to apologize?"
Wei Zhun looked back at his ministers. The pro-Han ministers naturally winked at him as hard as they could, and everyone wanted to go alone.
But Wei Zhun knew that these guys went to Chang'an and probably wouldn't come back.
Moreover, when they go to Chang'an, they will definitely reveal everything - in fact, Wei Zhun himself was the one who ordered the kidnapping in Han Dynasty. It was purely Wei Zhun's revenge for King Zhenfan, King Ma Han and others who went there so arrogantly.
Did the Han Dynasty's pilgrimage stoke a hornet's nest?
Therefore, these guys cannot be sent.
But others can’t help me on the stage!
If these guys who have long been transformed into barbarians really want to go to Chang'an, I'm afraid they will add fuel to the fire!
no way!
Wei Zhun sighed inwardly.
He said to a young minister: "Zhang Qing, please go to Chang'an to express my apology and explanation to the Holy Emperor!"
"I am ordered!" This young minister is considered one of Wei Zhun's favorite ministers. He is one of the few who grew up in Wangxian City and has good attainments in Chinese studies. However, he is also loyal to the Wei family and does not think about making trouble all day long.
A nobleman who returned to the Han Dynasty.
The minister bowed to Cheng Wang again and said, "My dear minister Zhang Chang, I have seen an angel!"
Cheng Wang chuckled and said: "No need, just prepare yourself and follow me back immediately to explain to the Emperor of Chang'an!"
"No!" Zhang Changdu said.
On the same day, Cheng Wang returned to Liaodong with Zhang Chang and a large number of accompanying members of the North Korean mission.
Two days later, the team arrived at Beishui.
After crossing the Bai River, before Zhang Chang had time to observe the scenery of the Han Dynasty's homeland, he discovered that he and the entire mission had been surrounded.
Cheng Wang, the Han envoy who had been polite to him along the way, was now riding on a war horse, fully armed, looking at him coldly, waved his hand, and ordered: "Kill! Leave no one alive for our Han family."
Revenge for the dead border residents!"
Because the Jiazi Edict had been issued to the world, the Han soldiers had already been excited by the emperor's edict. They only wanted to seek revenge on the Koreans. When they saw these Koreans and had orders from their superiors, how could they think so much!
He immediately rushed forward, slashed with swords and stabbed with spears, and within a quarter of an hour, he killed all the members of the mission.
Cheng Wang looked at the corpses and broken limbs all over the place.
Crazy laughter burst from his mouth.
He knew it was risky for him to do so.
It is even more clear that his behavior will definitely provoke a war.
However, in life, if you seize an opportunity, you still have to look forward and backward and refuse to place a bet.
When will he come forward?
A few days later, a report from a captain in eastern Liaodong arrived in front of Liu Che. (To be continued)
