When Goguryeo's envoy came to the Youzhou camp and came to see Zhang Wen, Zhang Wen personally received the other party's envoy. This was really strange. Could it be that this captain who had been shouting that he wanted to be beheaded had something to do with him?
Willing to reconcile with Goguryeo? This is really not in line with the character of this old man. Dong Zhuo and others did not understand. They frowned and met with the Taiwei.
Perhaps even the envoy did not expect that he would be received by the Han Dynasty Lieutenant so smoothly. He was half afraid and half puzzled. When he walked into the camp, he saw the old general sitting on top. The lieutenant's face was solemn and he asked
He didn't dare to raise his head and continue to look at it, so he quickly moved forward and said skillfully: "Greetings to the great Han Taiwei."
This guy was so proficient in elegant language. The old lieutenant narrowed his eyes and asked coldly: "The war is about to begin, why did you come?"
"Taiwei, I, Goguryeo, have never been hostile to the Han, let alone had any conflicts. Over the years, the Han and I have been close neighbors and thought we would get along well..."
"I dare to ask Taiwei, why did you raise an unknown army to invade our territory?"
Zhang Wen stared at him closely and said angrily: "You guys still have the nerve to ask me? Do you know that Dong Yi has returned to serve the king?"
The envoy's face twitched, nodded, and said: "I didn't know before, which was indeed offensive, but after knowing it, we have never entered Dongyi!" Zhang Wen stood up and said angrily: "I came from Dongyijun
I heard there that you, Goguryeo, are cruel and unscrupulous. You once preyed on the Donghao people and committed all kinds of evil. Now there are tens of thousands of Donghao slaves in Goguryeo. I read the books of sages when I was young, how could I see such atrocities on your part?!"
Dong Zhuo and Huangfu Song stared blankly.
When the envoy heard this, he quickly held up his hands and defended: "I hope the Taiwei will learn from this. We were enemies of Dongyi in the past. How can we show mercy during the war?"
"What about now?"
"Now that we know that Donghao has returned and the war is over, why not return the captured Donghao people?"
"This..." The envoy's eyes widened, not understanding what the captain meant.
"Now, Donghao is the people of the Son of Heaven. How can the people of the Son of Heaven be slaves to foreign countries? If you hand over the captured slaves, it is better to say that if you don't surrender, you will be destroyed when war breaks out.
On that day!" Taiwei shouted righteously. The envoy frowned and thought, then raised his hands and said: "I will convey the news to Taiwei. I hope Taiwei will not be impatient...give him some time...
.”
"I will give you seventeen days. If there is no news within seventeen days, I will personally lead the army to attack!"
"Here you go!"
The envoy bowed his hands and bowed, and then slowly walked out. It wasn't until he left that Lu Bu walked up to him in a daze and asked: "Captain... Is this okay with you?"
"Asshole! Of course I'm fine!" Zhang Wen was angered by his question and cursed. Lu Bu smiled awkwardly and asked, "The lieutenant wants to confuse them first and then surprise them. In less than seventeen days
, then kill him in the royal city?"
"I am a benevolent and righteous person, how could I do such a thing?" Zhang Wen frowned and said with some sadness: "Every time I think about the fact that our people are suffering in foreign countries, I can't bear to wait for him to be sent back.
Prisoners, let’s discuss the rest!”
Hearing what he said, Lu Bu didn't understand even more. He turned to look at Dong Zhuo and Huangfu Song. Dong Zhuo and Huangfu Song looked at each other and smiled. Obviously, they had understood something. It seemed that Lu Bu was the only one who ignored it. This made him
Somewhat frustrated, but not wanting to sacrifice his face to ask, he could only frown and say nothing. Seeing his appearance, Zhang Wen shook his head and asked them to leave.
Dong Zhuo took Lu Bu out of the camp.
Walking on the road, Dong Zhuo looked at Lu Bu beside him and asked with a smile: "Fengxian, have you ever been to Goguryeo?"
"Of course I have been there. I have entered Goguryeo three times before...to avenge Dongyi...ahem..."
Dong Zhuo squinted his eyes and asked again: "Then do you know its terrain well? Do you know where he wants to go? Do you know the affairs of his royal city? The composition of his army?"
Hearing Dong Zhuo's question, Lu Bu was a little stunned, shook his head and said, "I don't know this..."
"Hahaha, you don't know, but those slaves do!"
Hearing Dong Zhuo's words, Lu Bu reacted and laughed loudly and said: "I see, why did the Taiwei change his gender today?" Huangfu Song on the other side smiled and said: "It's not just that,
If we forcefully attack Goguryeo, those slaves will definitely be used as soldiers by Goguryeo and cause trouble to the Han people, but if they are in our hands, wouldn't there be tens of thousands more soldiers?"
"He is still a soldier who hates Goguryeo to the core!"
Huangfusong said with a smile.
Lu Bu's face twitched, he shook his head and said, "Mr. Huangfu is wrong. If that's the case, it's better to let them use Dong Haoren as their soldiers!"
"oh?"
Huangfu Song and Dong Zhuo looked at Lu Bu with some doubts, not understanding what he meant. They had never been to Dongyi. Lu Bu said helplessly: "Dong Gong and Huangfu have never been to Dongyi. I don't know where they are."
In this situation, the Donghao people are cowardly by nature and never wary... A few hundred Goguryeo people can chase tens of thousands of Donghao people into battle..."
"If they use Dong Hao as their soldiers, they will probably destroy their formation..."
Huangfu Song shook his head and said: "If we risk our lives..."
"Hey..." Lu Bu shook his head and said: "I have been with Donghao for several years, and I have never seen any Donghao people fighting, or even verbal abuse. According to what the locals said, Donghao said
In , there is not even a word of abuse, not even a word like "kill", but they still use words from Goguryeo..."
Hearing what Lu Bu said, Huangfu Song thought for a moment and finally said: "No matter who you are, train them to become elites!"
Lu Bu did not refute again. You will understand when you meet those Donghao people...
At this time, the envoy quickly returned to the royal city and hurriedly revealed Zhang Gong's words to the King of Goguryeo. After hearing this, the King of Goguryeo frowned and could not speak for a long time. At the same time, a minister said: "This is the enemy's strategy."
, You want to use this to make me slack off my fighting spirit, and if I am surprised again, I must guard it strictly!" The King of Goguryeo felt that what he said was very possible, and immediately sent people to the surrounding area to strengthen defense.
He also discussed with the ministers about repatriating the slaves, and one minister said: "The Han Dynasty mobilized troops in this way, and it will never be just for these slaves. Even if the slaves are returned, they will not be able to escape the war. It is better to use these slaves as military troops...
To be used in war!"
Hearing what he said, the King of Goguryeo was a little moved, but the general on the side quickly dissuaded him and said: "Don't do this. These people are afraid that the moment they see the Han army, they will flee in all directions and mess up my formation in vain. Don't do this."
, Donghao people are not good at fighting!", he said eagerly, fearing that the king would adopt this fool's suggestion and forcibly put those Donghao people into their army.
Seeing the general's frightened expression, the King of Goguryeo pondered for a moment, smiled, and said: "If he wants it, we will give it to him. Before that, let the soldiers quietly gather in Daifang County...
"
Hearing the words of the King of Goguryeo, everyone was a little confused and asked quickly: "Your Majesty, what can I do about it?"
"Hahaha, don't say too much, just do as you are told. However, everything must be kept secret and not allowed to be known to outsiders... If anyone dares to speak nonsense, I will kill him first!" He said seriously, everyone said.
Dare not, the King of Goguryeo watched them leave, sitting alone in the house, lost in thought. He was the son of the previous Goguryeo King Yu Xian. Yu Xian was killed by the Yuyang Prefect earlier, and he inherited the throne.
He had been suppressing the hatred towards Han in his heart, not daring to reveal it, for fear of causing disaster. However, now, with tens of thousands of troops surrounding Goguryeo, it was obvious that Goguryeo would not be given a chance to breathe again. If
If you want to flee, you can only flee in the direction of Buyeo. However, that idiot King Buyeo has always hated himself in his heart. He will definitely join the Han army in conquering him, and he will not understand the meaning of death!
King Luo Di of Goguryeo was indeed a talented king. After he succeeded, Goguryeo developed rapidly. He defeated Fuyu and forcibly ceded countless territories. The national power gradually became stronger. However, it was still incomparable with the national power of the Han Dynasty. However, he did not
I don't plan to give up so easily. Instead of running away, it's better to have a life-and-death fight with the big man.
Even if it can be delayed for a while, it is better than waiting to die!
He thought to himself, looked in the direction of Youzhou, and squinted his eyes.
That night, Donghao slaves from all over the country were brought to the royal city and then transported to Youzhou. In the darkness of the night, many gray-headed men mingled among these slaves. There were not a few of them. They lowered their heads and behaved in the same way as those around them.
The slaves were no different. After they were gathered, they waited for three days before rushing to the Youzhou camp.
It was still the same envoy as last time, but for some reason, when he came this time, he didn't look as panicked as last time. He looked much calmer. This made Zhang Wen look at him a few more times and narrowed his eyes.
Eyes, when more than 16,000 slaves were brought here, the military moved quickly to bring them back to the military camp.
At this time, Huangfu Song began to believe Lu Bu's words. Tens of thousands of Donghao people were not tied up, but were brought over by hundreds of Goguryeo people. No one wanted to object or escape, even here,
They were also silent, with their heads lowered, not even daring to look around. Huangfu Song frowned, could such a guy really go to the battlefield?
Slave Dong Hao didn't look around at all. He glanced around secretly. When he saw the person next to him, he was shocked. Isn't this his master? Why is he still here dressed as a slave? He was frightened.
He had to quickly lower his head, not daring to look around again. He stood in front, and his covert behavior still failed to escape Zhang Wen's eyes.
Zhang Wen looked at it and said nothing, so he discussed the withdrawal with the envoy and asked him to leave for Goguryeo to report the news. At the same time, he also noticed that when he heard that the Han Dynasty was withdrawing, the envoy did not show such ecstasy.
Instead of smiling and nodding, Zhang Wen ordered his soldiers to take a good look at these slaves and returned to the camp with Lu Bu and others.
"What? There are soldiers among the slaves?"
Dong Zhuo was taken aback and asked in surprise.
Zhang Wen nodded and said: "I saw that several of them were dressed as slaves, but their eyes were always looking at the Han troops around them. They were not as frightened as the others. I am afraid that the King of Goguryeo should not be there. Hahaha, I have planted many people among them, but these people are close to ten thousand people, and it is not easy to keep an eye on them. If someone commits an assassination or even sets a fire at night..."
"Could they still want to attack my army???"
Zhang Wen did not answer, but asked: "Do you have any way to identify it?"
Dong Zhuo said: "It is better to use the plan and set up an ambush outside Youzhou, leaving an empty tent and the soldiers to guard it. As long as there are thieves setting fire or assassinating, they can easily capture them, and then use the ambush to attack the enemy. This way Great kindness!"
Hearing his words, Huangfu Song was overjoyed and said, "That's great."
Zhang Wen shook his head and said: "This matter is extremely risky. What's more, we can't set up an ambush with Youzhou. Youzhou is building Chidao and is becoming more and more prosperous. If foreign enemies enter Youzhou, wouldn't it hurt the prosperity of Youzhou?" If you harm the local people, you must not do this. You should occupy the enemy and the outside world!" Hearing what he said, Dong Zhuo sighed helplessly. Although Zhang Wen was a cruel man, he still valued the Han people very much.
This point is completely different from Duan Jiong. If Duan Jiong were here, he wouldn't care about the people of Youzhou. It would be great if he could achieve more military exploits!
Lu Bu heard this and laughed.
Dong Zhuo and Zhang Wen both looked at him in confusion. Lu Bu said, "I have a plan to easily find out who the thief is. I wonder if Mr. Zhang is willing to try it?"
"Oh? I have long heard that Fengxian is a Confucian general. He is very good at debating and literary affairs, but I don't know that he is also good at strategy. I wonder what clever plan Fengxian has?"
Zhang Wen asked with a smile.
Lu Bu smiled strangely and told his inner plan. Dong Zhuo and Huangfu Song were still hesitant, but Zhang Wen laughed and said, "That's great. I wonder if we can learn about Goguryeo's actions from them." , even if we can’t capture them all, it doesn’t matter, I don’t want to use them as soldiers, I will find a solution in the future.”
Hearing his words, Lu Bu cupped his hands and walked out.
He came to the podium, surrounded by messengers. He looked at the many Donghao people below and said, "You know, now that Donghao has returned to the Han Dynasty, the people are happy and happy, and there are no foreign enemies!"
The people below quickly translated these words into Dongyi language and started shouting.
Only then did the Donghao people raise their heads, with some disbelief in their eyes. Some even wiped away tears and knelt down in the direction of Lu Bu.
Lu Bu was speechless, frowned, and continued: "You can return to Donghao..."
"But before that, I just want to ask you guys!"
"Goguryeo brutalized your people and killed your close relatives like this!"
"Treat you as livestock! Loot your wealth!"
"I have made you slaves and slaves, and I have humiliated you for so long!"
"Do you really want to return like this? Don't you want to join the Han army in attacking Goguryeo?"
"You are willing to go with the Han army to take revenge!!!"
Lu Bu roared.
After hearing this, many Donghao people suddenly became excited, raised their arms, and shouted: "Goguryeo has bullied others too much, and I am willing to fight with the general!!", but more Donghao people still disappeared. They were overjoyed just now, with their heads lowered and silent. They did not want revenge. They just wanted to return to Dongli to catch fish and shrimps.
Lu Bu also looked excitedly at the Donghao people who responded to him, nodded heavily, and said: "Catch all these people who responded, they are all Goguryeo people!"
"Um???"
The soldiers around him looked at him with some doubts. These people hated Goguryeo. How could they be Goguryeo?
"Hahaha, believe me, the Dongyao people will never seek revenge. They just want to go back to Dongyao to catch their fish and shrimps with dragon beards..."
