When Su Lu arrived at the Qinzheng Hall, the discussion had already reached a fever pitch.
The radicals headed by Pound believed that the Thule people should accept the surrender. At critical moments, they could also send troops into Hanshui City to help the Thule people fight against their powerful enemies.
The moderate faction headed by Yang Biao did not advocate sending troops. The revenue from the Hutong Market to the Ministry of Household Affairs was enough to cover half the Han Dynasty's taxes, and it was still rising year by year. Yang Biao believed that if peace could be maintained in this way, the revenue from the Hutong Market would be very high.
It will soon catch up with the country’s taxes.
Wu Gutu stood in the middle of the crowd, with embarrassment written all over his face.
Before coming here, I had already thought that the Han people would not necessarily accept my surrender. Now it seems that this is indeed the case.
Su Lu's face flashed through my mind, and Wu Gu suddenly felt something in his heart. I wonder if he would agree to accept Tule's surrender now that he is here.
He commanded an invincible army and was victorious in ten battles. It would be great to be a general under such a person.
Su Lu entered the main hall and saw the protruding figure in a daze.
"Why, Wu Gutu, I heard that you are now serving as a right-hand inspector and your life is very prosperous. Why are you thinking of coming to my country, Han?"
Wu Gutu's face turned pale. This is the evil star. The wolf lived at the foot of Xu Mountain. He fought ten battles and ten victories. The Thule army fought from victory to defeat. The right wing policeman completely lost confidence and refused to go south again.
Herding horses only dare to compete with other tribes in the grassland.
When he comes, it should be time to decide the fate of his tribe.
Wu Gutu said with a mournful face: "Your Majesty Ming Jian, the foreign ministers just want to surrender so that the Chinese army can enter Hanshui City and protect my tribe's safety."
In the main hall, everyone's eyes fell on Su Lu.
The prince is the person who determines the life and death of the Han Dynasty.
Su Lu laughed and patted the bony shoulder.
"Okay, as long as you Tule can pay the price to make me Han's heart beat, it is not difficult to enter Hanshui City, and it is not even difficult to kill the two great royal courts in the Northeast."
Wu Gutu's face turned pale. He had already surrendered to Thule. What other benefits did the prince want? Could it be that for the Han people, opening up new territory and expanding their territory was not the greatest benefit.
"We will surrender as a whole nation, as long as we can keep my tribe safe."
Wu Gutu said in a depressed tone.
Su Lu nodded: "Okay, since you are willing to surrender the whole country, I can't let you suffer. After defeating Youxiangcha's disciples, if you are willing to move your tribe to the grassland, all the grassland tribes under Youxiangcha will still be under your command.
.”
Wu Gutu was overjoyed when he heard this. This is a great thing.
"I am willing, and I also ask the prince to send troops. I will do my best to march forward for the king, destroy the disciples of Youxiangcha, and put down these rebellions."
Su Lu cupped his fists and saluted Li Qing and said, "Your Majesty, please issue an order to cooperate with Wu Gutu to capture Hanshui City and expand the territory."
Li Qing was overjoyed that Su Lu was indeed Su Lu. After a heated exchange of words, he not only expanded the territory of the Han Kingdom to the border of the grassland, but also set his own nails into the grassland.
In time, the Tule Prairie might become the home of the Han family.
Li Qing said: "Wugutu, please wait at the post house. Envoys will be coming north soon, and our Diaoyin Jiedu Mansion will send troops to sweep the surrounding area."
The bone protruded, Pang De asked Su Lu.
"The prince has a great plan, but among the generals in the north, who can be the king's vanguard?"
Su Lu looked at Pang De and said: "Your Majesty, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Send Zhang Lu to lead the army to the north. We can occupy the Han River without spending a single soldier. As for the people on the right side, as long as I Han
The soldiers opened up their posture and looked like they were about to fight. I believe these guys are naturally willing to make space for Wu Gu Tu."
Pang De still wanted to speak, but Qian Qianyi next to him had already spoken: "What the prince said is true. I see that the heart inside the bone protrusion is very hard. This shows that the prince's northern strategy is very successful. Through the power of mutual trading, , the Tule people are becoming more and more attracted to our Han Kingdom, and given time, it will not be difficult to make all these people join our Han Kingdom as subjects."
As the Minister of Rites, he led the opening of schools in various places and opened hundreds of schools in succession. He became more and more confident in the cultural export mentioned by Su Lu.
Just barbarians who have been assimilated by the culture of the above country are naturally willing to become subjects of our Han country. Look, Wu Gutu is an example.
I, Qian Qianyi, also have great merit.
After the court meeting dispersed, Su Lu accompanied Li Qing to the minister's study room. As soon as he sat down, a young eunuch hurried in, holding several military affairs brochures in his hands.
"Your Majesty, several military affairs brochures have been sent back from Qingjiang Camp in the south."
Li Qing was stunned for a moment, then opened the booklet and read it doubtfully.
"Asshole!"
Li Qing threw the folder to the ground, looked grim, stood up, and walked around the study room.
"Li Erniu missed my big deal!"
"Damn it, I'm going to kill all nine of his tribes!"
Li Qing was going crazy. When the army was fighting, he was holding back. He really pretended that he didn't dare to kill him.
Su Lu picked up the folder, read it over, and almost tore it up. General Li was really old. He was afraid of losing too many battles, so he didn't dare to attack.
Since you don't dare to attack, then you still appoint Cao Hua and Dong Ning as generals to attack the Qi army's south bank camp. It is really unnecessary.
If your army is stationed on the north bank and does not move, it will be more convenient and not a single Han army will die.
After calming down, Li Qing sat down again and spoke:
"You still need to take charge of the affairs in the southern border. Regarding the strategy of the northern border, I am really worried about whether Zhang Lu can understand your intention and fully capture the south of Hanshui City. If there is a slight mistake, the success will fail, and if you miss this opportunity, you will regret it. In time."
Su Lu nodded. Zhang Lu is a general who is more stable than aggressive. If he is used as a commander to conquer Thule, he must be careful of capsizing in the ditch. "
Qian Qianyi spoke: "It's a small thing for Zhang Lu to suffer a defeat. If you lose your reputation as a powerful king, it will be more than a loss for us. Thule is afraid of the prince, so it would be better if the prince goes and takes it in person." This is the important place of Thule.”
Li Qing shook his head: "No, the environment in the south is good, but the environment in the north is bad. The prince's injury has not fully recovered. It's a big thing, but it can't compare to the prince's recovery. You don't have to think about it."
Li Qing glanced at the ministers in the study room and spoke sternly.
"The prince is me, and I am the prince. The prince is the pillar of our Han Dynasty, so there can be no mistakes. Pound, the Ministry of War will discuss it carefully and see what should be done. Come up with a plan."
Pang De bowed and said, the prince's safety is the foundation of the country, and the rest are trivial matters. Turret's return to the south is an opportunity, but he believes that with the prince here, as long as the prince's strategy continues to be implemented in the north, such an opportunity will come again. appearing again.
Xie Wan came out and said: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, the first batch of students from Jiangwu Hall have completed their studies. Where should these students be sent? Could Your Majesty please make it clear to Your Majesty?"
Li Qing looked at Su Lu. She said that the students in the martial arts hall were the hope of the future of the Han Dynasty and should not be ignored. She wanted to hear Su Lu's opinion.
"Send them into various armies, either as leaders or as staff officers, and go into battle to kill the enemy."
Su Lu Gujing said calmly.
Everyone was stunned when they heard this, and then went into battle to kill the enemy. These are student soldiers who have been raised in the academy for three years. They should not be used as treasures. Why are they being pushed to the battlefield all of a sudden?
