Hai Dongqing shook his head and said: "Excuse me, I will not submit to Daliao. I, Hai Dongqing, do not want to be a human dog."
The ministers on the side scolded one after another: "You don't know how to praise me. You must not be rude in front of the emperor."
Yelu Zongyuan smiled and said: "Don't say that to Yingxiong Jiang. Then Yingxiong Jiang, you don't want anything, why do you come to see me? You come to Daliao and risk losing your head, what do you want?"
"I'm here to discuss cooperation with the Emperor of Liao," Haidong Qing said.
"Cooperation? Hahaha, you and me?" Yelu Zongyuan smiled, and he had to admit that Hai Dongqing might be used to being a bandit from the Green Forest, and he spoke in a loud voice.
"Yes, I want to cooperate with you. With my cooperation, you, the Liao Kingdom, will be able to destroy the Great Zhou. I know you really want to devour the Great Zhou. You are gathering troops and planning to attack the Great Zhou, aren't you? But You are also afraid of the hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses in the surrounding towns, so you came up with the idea of transporting soldiers and horses from the sea to land in a roundabout way, disrupting its flanks and interior. I think the emperor's idea is correct, but even if you can Transporting a troop and horse to land on the flank will not achieve the goal." Haidong Qingdao.
"Oh? You want to tell me about it?" Yelu Zongyuan asked with a smile.
"It's very simple. You can't transport a large army to land from the sea. At most, it's just a small group of soldiers and horses. Thousands of people are amazing. How much effect can these thousands of people have? Going deep alone, the situation is unfamiliar, food and grass We can't supply anything. If we can't break through the Yanyun defense line in a short time, these thousands of people are a gift to Zhou Dynasty. They will be wiped out in less than ten days. What's the point of this?" Haidong Qingdao .
Yelu Zongyuan frowned and thought, this is exactly what he is worried about. The transportation capacity is limited and can only transport thousands of soldiers and horses, and that is after finding the best landing place. Next, let's see what happens to these people. If they can't If they can stand firm, they will not be able to attract the opponent's main force to encircle and suppress them, and it will be impossible to reduce the pressure on the frontal battlefield. In that case, there is really no practical significance. Instead, their lives will be in vain because there is no way to rescue them.
"Our Daliao cavalry is invincible and can gallop up and down its depths. The supply of food and grass can be used to support the war. How can it be useless? You are alarmist." A Liao minister sternly reprimanded.
Hai Dongqing sneered and said: "I'm not laughing at you. You guys are sitting here talking and it doesn't hurt your back. Which of you has ever been to the area in the west of Beijing? Do you know that even a small county in the northern cities of the Great Zhou Dynasty has strong walls and high walls?" , the fortifications are strong. Although thousands of cavalry can gallop back and forth, they may not be able to capture even a small county town, or even occupy a foothold. Fighting to support war? The people of the North cannot support themselves. , what are you grabbing for? Once you stand up, the people will huddle in the city. Wherever you go, there is nothing, solid walls and clear fields, and you can’t get anything. There is no shortage of mud and leaves. Can the Daliao Jingqi eat it? ?”
"Presumptuous! Don't ridicule my Daliao warriors." Yelu Zongyuan shouted coldly.
Hai Dongqing hurriedly raised his hands in salute. He knew that he had gone too far. It was really inappropriate to look down on the elite knights of Liao in front of the other emperor. But this was exactly what he wanted to do today, which was to show that he was confident and confident. You are like Zhuge Liang. Otherwise, the other party will not believe you, and your goals will not be achieved.
"Your Majesty, I don't mean to be sarcastic, I just think about the Liao Dynasty. I hate the Zhou Dynasty to the bone. The Liao Dynasty attacks the Zhou Dynasty. I, Haidong Qing, want nothing more. I naturally hope that the Liao Dynasty will win. Therefore, I must
I say these things out of kindness, not out of sarcasm."
"Then what do you think we should do?" Yelu Zongyuan asked in a deep voice.
"This is my purpose. Mr. Jiang is willing to cooperate with Daliao. I am from the Great Zhou Dynasty and I am very familiar with the situation in the Great Zhou Dynasty. I, Jiang Ruiyuan, will respond to everyone on Green Forest Road. As long as there are suitable conditions, in my name
, a large number of righteous soldiers will be gathered under his command. If you recruit some more soldiers and horses, you can form a powerful army. With these soldiers and horses, Jiang will be able to stir up chaos in Dazhou. Isn't this exactly what you want. Dazhou
It took the Zhou court more than ten years to annihilate Haidongqing's troops. I don't need to brag, you also know what I am capable of. If they want to annihilate me, they will have to spend a lot of troops to encircle and suppress me. By then, Daliao will have the means to send troops south.
Opportunity. If we cooperate internally and externally, we can break through the Yanyun defense line and attack the capital of Bianliang. The destruction of the Great Zhou Dynasty is just around the corner. This is the reason why I came here."
Hai Dongqing finally revealed his wishful thinking. This was the plan he had thought about for several days after learning the identity of the third prince. He had to rely on external help to make a comeback, otherwise he might have to live on Snake Island for the rest of his life.
This is something he will never be willing to accept. So he wants to give it a try and take advantage of the general situation between the two countries.
Yelv Zongyuan and his ministers were silent. They did not expect that Hai Dongqing's purpose of coming here was this. This plan was not unreasonable. With Hai Dongqing's reputation and ability, maybe he could really pull up an army.
.Furthermore, he is from the Great Zhou and is familiar with the internal situation of the Great Zhou. Compared with sending a soldier and horse there, and supporting a soldier and horse within the Great Zhou, the latter seems to be more feasible. At least even if it fails,
Those who died were also irrelevant people, not the soldiers and horses of Daliao.
"What benefits can you get from this? With all due respect, you must have some intention. Although you hate Zhou, such a dangerous thing is not just to vent your anger." Yelu Zongyuan asked, stroking his mustache.
"I want the land south of the Yangtze River." Haidong Qing said: "If you can destroy the Great Zhou Dynasty, I only want the land south of the Yangtze River, and everything north of the river will belong to you, the Liao Dynasty."
"You want to be the emperor?" Yelu Zongyuan looked at Hai Dongqing in surprise, with a smile on his lips.
"What? Isn't it possible? Princes, generals, and prime ministers are born? Can I, Hai Dongqing, be the one?" Hai Dongqing shouted.
"Hahahaha." Yelu Zongyuan laughed.
"Hahaha."
"Hehehehe."
"Hey hey hey! Crazy, crazy!"
All the ministers of the Liao Dynasty also laughed. They looked at the pirate leader who was over fifty years old and had dirty clothes. He actually wanted to be the emperor. This man must have lost his mind and gone crazy.
"Okay, if you are ambitious, I promise you." Yelu Zongyuan stopped laughing and said loudly.
The ridicule of the ministers stopped suddenly. Unexpectedly, the emperor actually agreed to him. This was simply confusing. How could they know what Yelu Zongyuan was thinking. If Hai Dongqing had nothing to ask for, Yelu Zongyuan would think so.
This matter is quite unreliable. In Yelu Zongyuan's view, it is unbelievable that people do not seek benefit for themselves. Hai Dongqing revealed his true feelings to his face and wanted to be the emperor, which shows that this person is actually useful. He has this
If you have such desires, you will do things wholeheartedly. If you have no desires or demands, it will make people suspicious.
As for whether after destroying the Great Zhou Dynasty, we will divide the river to rule with him and give him the land south of the Great Zhou River, that is another matter. Yelu Zongyuan will never let it go. Are you kidding? Destroy it.
Does the Great Zhou allow another Great Zhou to exist? Hai Dongqing got carried away and actually put forward such a condition. Let him have this dream of spring and autumn. Then he will understand how stupid he is.
"So, how can I help you?" Yelu Zongyuan said with a smile.
Hai Dongqing's face was filled with joy, and people were overjoyed that things went so smoothly.
"Your Majesty only needs to provide me with weapons, armor, money and food, and I will take care of the rest. Within half a year, I will have tens of thousands of soldiers and horses. By then, the area west of Beijing will be turned upside down.
And you can take the opportunity to launch a massive attack. If we work together internally and externally, we will be unstoppable." Hai Dongqing said in a deep voice.
Yelu Zongyuan laughed and nodded: "It's easy to handle, easy to handle. I have money, food, weapons and armor. I can give you as much as you want. As long as you don't break your promise, everything will be easy to handle."
No one expected that the two parties would hit it off immediately and reach an agreement quickly. In the next few days, Hai Dongqing and Yelu Zongyuan's ministers discussed in detail for several days, and finally reached a detailed cooperation plan. The two parties agreed to use Shedao as a transit
Station, the Liao Kingdom funded the shipment of a large amount of materials to Snake Island for the use of Haidong Qing. Haidong Qing needed to disrupt the pattern of the hinterland of Hexi Road within half a year. The two sides cooperated closely to prepare for the destruction of the Great Zhou Dynasty. After the completion of the matter, Haidong Qing
Qingke occupied the land south of the Yangtze River, professed his vassal status and established a country. He paid tribute and repaired the country.
At the end of April, Haidong Qingzhi successfully returned to Snake Island with two large ships of supplies, and began his dream journey. He sent a large number of people to sneak into the mainland, contacted various cottages in the Zhou Dynasty, and promised to reward and invite
They joined Shedao Dazhai to do big things together. Haidong Qing thought that this matter would not be too difficult, but the feedback he received was unexpected. The people sent out came back one after another, but most of them met with disappointment.
Someone brought back a reply from the owner of the village, saying that tens of thousands of pirates in Haidongqing were wiped out by 10,000 officers and soldiers. He fled like a mourning dog, which shows his incompetence. Now he is the bandit leader wanted by the court for elimination. Who followed him?
He is not looking for death. Some people say that although Hai Dongqing is capable, he was once famous in the green forest and respected by everyone. But now and then, his troops are not as many as his own, so why should he?
Take refuge in him. It's better for him, Hai Dongqing, to take refuge in him.
In short, there were various reasons for rejection, some were outspoken, some were ridiculing, and some were tactful. Dozens of people were sent out and visited dozens of cottages. In the end, only a few 400 people defected to Shedao Island.
Village.
Hai Dongqing was greatly disappointed, and at the same time he realized that he was too confident. Back then, he was indeed a figure that everyone feared and admired in the green forest roads of the world, but things have changed and people have changed. Since the battle on Peach Blossom Island, he has been in these
In people's minds, it is nothing. The former reputation was actually due to strength. The village owned more than 30,000 pirates and sat on more than a dozen islands in the southeast. At that time, I was like the king of the sea. Those people in the green forest
They regard themselves as their last resort. If they encounter an encirclement and suppression by the imperial court, they can still seek refuge with them. But now that they have lost their role in protecting them, they will naturally be nothing in their minds.
