Chapter Six: Overlord of the Western Qin Dynasty

In the original tent, Liang Shidu's brother Liang Shizhong was paced back and forth with his hands behind his back. He was thinking about how to convince his brother to complete the task assigned to him by Yang Yuanqing 5 original first release]

"Brother, why are you here?" Mr. Liang appeared in front of the tent and asked strangely.

When Liang Shizhong turned around, he saw that his brother had a general in his body and was already a general. He smiled and said, "Come and see you and tell you about the situation at home."

"Sit down and say!"

Master Liang asked his brother to sit down, poured him another glass of water, and asked first: "How is my father's health?"

When Liang Shidu fled Lingwu County last year, he wanted to take his old father away, but his father missed the countryside and refused to go with him. He was also the only person Liang Shidu cares about.

"My father is in good health, but he is old and has a lower memory than before. He is still confused from time to time and always treats his third brother as you."

Mr. Liang missed his father a little, so he sighed and asked, "Does the Fengzhou army make things difficult for you?"

"In a dilemma?"

Liang Shizhong asked in confusion: "Why do we make things difficult for us? We did not do anything to harm Lingwu County."

In fact, Liang Shizhong has always been puzzled about why his brother had run away in a hurry. At that time, the brother said that he had offended Yang Yuanqing and was afraid that Yang Yuanqing would take revenge. But in fact, Yang Yuanqing never asked the Liang family what happened, but because the Liang family was local.

The great clan, Zhang Taishou often visits the door.

Master Liang was speechless, and he didn't know why he wanted to escape at that time. He always felt inexplicable fear. Perhaps he had the intention to rebel, worried that he had been seen through by Yang Yuanqing and ran away out of guilt.

After a while of silence, Master Liang turned the topic back, "Is there anything wrong with brother coming to see me?"

"That's it!"

Liang Shizhong whispered: "Yang Yuanqing wants to cooperate with Xue Ju to deal with Li Yuan together. I hope you can persuade Xue Ju to agree to this cooperation."

Mr. Liang frowned, "Xue Ju is very conceited. I don't know if he will listen to my advice. I'm afraid I don't have the ability."

Liang Shizhong's face sank. Yang Yuanqing promised him that if this matter was done, his eldest son Liang Su could be named the county magistrate of Huaiyuan County. Liang Shizhong was full of hope and his brotherly attitude disappointed him, but

He knew how to get his brother to agree.

"This is also what my father meant. He hopes that you can consider the family. If you can help Yang Yuanqing, it will not only leave a way out for yourself, but will also bring great help to the family. Let the family be in Lingwu County.

The status has been improved.”

Having said this, he took out a letter and handed it to Liang Shidu, "This is a letter written by my father to you, you can see it yourself!"

Liang Shidu’s weakness was his father. After reading his father’s letter, he nodded silently for a while. “I’ll give it a try!”

Just as the Liang Shidu was discussing with his brother, the Western Qin overlord Xue Ju also met with the envoy sent by Yang Yuanqing on his tent.

Xue Ju has already proclaimed himself emperor, but he is just a grass-headed king. He has not established the emperor's etiquette and sufficient imperial dignity. He is just a huge wool tent showing the palace-like momentum, with palace ladies standing on both sides

With the guards, a long red carpet was laid to the end of the big tent. At the end were the three halberd steps paved with white jade, and at the top was a dragon couch made of gold. On both sides were eight palace ladies holding long-handled feather fans.

Xue raised her head and wore a sky-shock crown and a dragon robe, and sat upright on the dragon couch.

Xue Ju only uses this imperial specification when receiving distinguished guests. Yang Yuanqing's envoy is undoubtedly a distinguished guest.

Xie Sili walked into the tent smoothly and bowed to salute. "The chief of Fengzhou of the Great Sui Dynasty, General Yang of Chu, the envoy of the Duke of Chu, Xie Sili, met His Highness, the King of Western Qin!"

Yang Yuanqing refused to admit that he was the emperor, which was within Xue Ju's expectations, but he was willing to call him the king. This was Yang Yuanqing's biggest concession. Although Xue Ju looked rude, he was extremely delicate in his heart. He nodded slightly and smiled.

: "Do I remember Mr. Xie is not Xuangan's aide? When did he surrender to General Manager Yang?"

"I have always been an official in Fengzhou. I am ordered by the general manager to assist Yang Xuangan."

"So that's it. I wonder if Mr. Xie is currently in Fengzhou?"

"I have just been appointed as the chief of Lingwu County."

"Hehe Lingwu County is a good place! The land is fertile and the water source is sufficient. It is the largest grain-producing county in the pass. I wonder how many people there are in Lingwu County now?"

Xue Ju asked slowly, but was thinking about Yang Yuanqing's intention to send an envoy to see him and the countermeasures he should take.

At this time, Master Liang also walked into the big tent and stood close to the prince Xue Rengao. Xue Rengao looked quite like his father, as powerful as his martial arts skills, but he was not as cunning as his father Xue Ju, and was more brave and wise as his father.

Inadequate, especially cruel and murderous.

He whispered to Master Liang: "This is an envoy sent by Yang Yuanqing, I wonder what to do?"

Mr. Liang smiled and whispered: "Maybe he wants to deal with Li Yuan with us."

At this time, Xie Sili replied: "I have just been appointed as the chief of Lingwu County."

The more Xue Rengao thought about Liang Shidu's words, the more reasonable he was. He was a rude and rude person. He did not take his father's emperor etiquette at all. Then he opened his voice and laughed: "Mr. Xie, is Yang Yuanqing going to cooperate with us.

Deal with Li Yuan?"

The big tent was quiet, and everyone's eyes were like Xue Rengao's eyes. Master Liang, who was standing next to him, had a change of thought. He could use this idiot, so he deliberately stimulated him and said, "Your Highness the Crown Prince, don't talk nonsense without knowing it, the king

There is no intention to attack Li Yuan for the time being."

Xue Rengao was rude and unwise. He couldn't stand the stimulation. He raised his eyebrows and glared at Liang Shidu, "Why am I ignorant? What are we doing here? Isn't we just going to attack Guanzhong? Now we are at a loss. Yang Yuanqing proposed cooperation, which is not right.

Is it a no-brainer?"

"Shut up!"

Xue Jue slapped the table, glared at Xue Rengao fiercely, and cursed: "I think you have eaten too much human flesh and can't speak human words!"

In fact, Xue Ju also guessed Yang Yuanqing's intention, and he couldn't ask for it, but he wanted to pretend to be confused and bargain from Yang Yuanqing to get the greatest benefit. Unexpectedly, a foolish word from his son Xue Rengao exposed their bottom line, making Xue

Ju was extremely annoyed.

Xie Sili smiled and said, "I am indeed on the order of the General Manager to discuss with His Highness the King to deal with Li Yuan together. I have a letter here. It is written by the General Manager to His Highness to His Highness.

Your Highness, please take a look."

Xie Sili took out a letter and submitted it to Xue Ju. Xue Ju opened the letter. The first sentence was, 'Princess Leping's birthday party was twelve years after leaving, and heard that the old friend had an uprising in the Western Qin Dynasty, Yuan Qing

Very touched'

Xue Ju smiled. At Princess Leping's birthday party, he was not successful in assassinating Yang Yuanqing and was almost killed by Yang Yuanqing. This kind of old friend is not so nostalgic.

"Check a banquet and welcome guests!"

Xue Ju ordered a banquet to be held, with meat and wine. Various delicacies. Amid the melodious sound of silk and bamboo, a group of girls danced gracefully. Xue Ju's dozen important officials sat on both sides, and Xue Rengao was driven out.

He is not allowed to attend the banquet.

Xue Ju toasted Xie Sili with a glass of wine and asked with a smile: "Does Mr. Yang still remember me?"

"Remember, General Manager Yang said that he was deeply impressed by Your Highness's Wind Snake. I don't know what the Wind Snake is?"

Xue Ju laughed out loud, and then explained to Xie Sili: "The Wind-splashing knife is the poisonous knife I hid on the cloak. I almost killed you General Manager Yang with this poisonous knife back then, but I am still kind and righteous.

When I saw him cold arrows, I even called him out."

Everyone looked at each other, and they thought Xue Ju and Yang Yuanqing had an old friendship. After a long time of trouble, it turned out that they were a life-and-death relationship.

Xue Ju also sighed, "At that time, I was also used by the King of Qi, and I couldn't help myself, so I didn't mention the past!"

He glanced at Xie Sili and turned the topic back to the main business, "May I ask Xie Changshi. If I promise to cooperate with Yang Yuanqing and deal with Li Yuan together, what benefits can he do to me?"

Xie Sili smiled and said, "Pingliang County is now under our control. If Your Highness Xue agrees to cooperate, the general manager said that he can give Pingliang County to the Western Qin army and let the Western Qin army attack Guanzhong from Xiaoguandao."

"Is that simple?"

Xie Sili nodded, "Fengzhou can only agree to this condition."

In fact, Yang Yuanqing also agreed to support Xue Ju's military ration of 50,000 shi, but Xue Rengao's words just now made Xie Sili change his mind. He decided not to give 50,000 shi of food. Yang Yuanqing had full authority to entrust him and he had the right to make a decision.

Xue raised her face and showed displeasure. He held back his anger and said, "Since we have joined forces to deal with Li Yuan, how many soldiers are Yang Yuanqing preparing to send out?"

Xie Sili shook her head, "Fengzhou had just finished fighting with the Turks, and his military strength was exhausted and he was temporarily unable to send troops. He could only give Pingliang County to the Western Qin army, and the rest was only support."

Xue Ju was furious and threw the cup to the ground, drew his sword and pressed it on Xie Sili's neck, and said angrily: "It turns out that Fengzhou wants to use me, Xue. Well, I won't fight in Guanzhong, I will go to Lingwu County.

!”

Xie Sili was not afraid at all. He pushed the sword away and sneered: "The Fengzhou Army had just annihilated 300,000 Turkic cavalry and did not take the army of the Central Plains seriously. If your highness thinks he can beat the Turkic cavalry, then come

Lingwu County was killed, but I want to remind you that at that time, General Manager Yang and Li Yuan jointly dealt with the Western Qin army, and Li Gui of Xiliang, he must have wanted to avenge His Highness a single arrow."

Xue raised her face several times, but the sword did not take it back. Xie Sili was not afraid and just looked at him coldly. At this time, Master Liang quickly stood up and smoothed out and said, "Your Majesty, this is the bad temper of a scholar, no need to

Just be skeptical with him.”

Xue Ju snorted heavily, withdrew his sword, and he stopped accompanying the guest, and walked out of the tent with big strides. Xie Sili looked at his back, and showed a disdainful smile on the corner of his mouth. If he did not show a tough attitude, Xue Ju would

I thought that the Fengzhou army was easy to bully, and he would gain a better position.

Xie Sili knew it well, and Xue Ju would agree no matter what.

Xue Ju sat in the big tent and felt sulky. Master Liang walked in and said with a smile: "Are you still angry?"

Xue Ju said angrily: "Yang Yuanqing bullies people too much!"

"Actually, I think it was Yang Yuanqing who saw through the situation. Li Yuan occupied Guanzhong. His next step would be to attack Longyou and Guannei. The battle between our Western Qin army and Li Yuan is inevitable. I think it should be taken advantage of Li Yuan's arrival.

Guanzhong has not yet established a stable foothold, so he immediately launched a large-scale attack on Guanzhong. Since Yang Yuanqing gave up Xiao Guandao, then we will form an alliance with Yang Yuanqing and lead our army into Guanzhong."

Xue Ju nodded and sighed, "It's just that Yang Yuanqing is obviously using us. This alliance is too frustrating, I'm unwilling to accept it!"

Master Liang laughed, "First destroy Li Yuan, seize Guanzhong, and when we have the strength, then turn around and deal with Yang Yuanqing, and let out the evil spirits of today. This is called a gentleman taking revenge, and it is not too late for ten years."

Xue Ju sneered, "You are right. I will deal with Lingwu County sooner or later. Today I will endure this tone."

He immediately stood up and ordered, "Please ask Mr. Xie to go to my tent to discuss in detail."

After some negotiations, Xue Ju finally reached an alliance agreement with Xie Sili. The two sides drafted a letter of alliance. Xie Sili, as the representative of Yang Yuanqing, signed the letter of alliance.

Xue Ju immediately led a 100,000 army, turned around and went north to fight toward Pingliang County. The 100,000 Western Qin troops were about to launch an offensive from Xiaoguandao to Guanzhong.

After Yang Yuanqing received the news of the successful alliance, he led his army north and returned to Fengzhou.
