Han Shizu

Chapter 755

"These are your personal thoughts?" Zhao Kuangzan's expression became extraordinarily dignified, his eyes were like lightning, and he looked directly at Zhao Siwan.

King Yan's eyes were a bit frightening, Zhao Siwan was frightened by it, his eyes wandered, and he replied: "Besides the last general, there are many other generals of the Yan army. Please rest assured, your lord, all the soldiers support you!"

Zhao Kuangzan couldn't help but smiled, and asked, "According to what you mean, are you ready for a confrontation with the imperial court?"

"If the imperial court goes too far and leaves no room for it, the last general will not give in!" Zhao Siwan's tone was ruthless, and the scars on his face became more and more ostentatious, with a kind of ruthless determination in his whole body: "Since Emperor Han Promise Your Majesty, if you want to break your promise, you will lose your promise to the world. We are sitting in the fortified city of Youzhou, and our armored soldiers are refined and sharp, so we can rely on them to guard against the imperial court."

"Do you think that in the three prefectures of Youyan, with less than 200,000 people and less than [-] soldiers, they can deal with the imperial court's tens of millions of people and millions of troops?" Zhao Kuangzan asked rhetorically.

"Your Majesty, you don't need to exaggerate the strength of the imperial court!" Zhao Siwan waved his hand: "Although the imperial court has hundreds of thousands of soldiers and tens of millions of people, they need to be guarded everywhere, and the surroundings cannot be called peaceful. Even in the future, if the southern countries are really flattened, It also needs to be guarded by a heavy army. And if it has the intention of going north, it will be difficult to follow me if there are few soldiers. How can the Khitan people sit back and watch?"

The more Zhao Siwan talked, the more excited she became, perhaps excited, with a feeling of dry mouth, looked at Zhao Kuang and praised: "It is true that we should not communicate with Khitan, but we can still take advantage of its power. If the court dares to send troops , They should also have some concerns, fearing that we will completely tear our face and take refuge in Khitan.

As long as the imperial court has scruples, we have enough room for maneuver, and it may not be impossible to maintain the current situation for a long time.In this way, the king will rule Youyan in Changzhou, and the soldiers can enjoy peace and wealth in peace! "

Hearing his words, Zhao Kuangzan sighed, his expression was very calm, and he said: "You told me just now that there is no solution, but now it seems that you have already thought about it in your heart, and you have considered it thoroughly!"

"To tell you the truth, my lord, we have no intention of betraying the imperial court, but the imperial court treats other feudal vassals like it wants to do, killing donkeys, crossing rivers and demolishing bridges, and I should not just sit and wait for death. Could it be that your majesty is willing to tie up your hands and let me fish for you? " Zhao Siwan said.

Zhao Siwan's thoughts are very dangerous. Gao Fang, Lu Long's observer, once advised Liu Chengyou, saying that this person has two minds, is rebellious, and is not a loyal person.Liu Chengyou also gave Gao Fang instructions to look for opportunities to get rid of them, but it is not so easy to get rid of the general of the Yan army who holds the military power.The key point is that Zhao Kuangzan, king of Yan, trusts his general very much.

At this time, Zhao Siwan had done his best to Zhao Kuangzan and was very confident. He believed that it was impossible for Zhao Kuangzan to give up his position.If you want to fight against the imperial court and keep Youzhou and the Yan army, without Zhao Kuangzan's leadership, it will be impossible to rely on these generals alone.

"I'm afraid you can't come up with these insights and ideas alone!" Zhao Kuangzan asked suddenly as his expression gradually returned to calm.

"Your Majesty really understands the last general, and the last general is just a vulgar person, how could he fully understand these things." Zhao Siwan smiled and replied: "To tell you the truth, your majesty, this was discussed by some literati in Youzhou. In the land of Yan, there is no shortage of literary talents, and these people are also useful. If the king wants to consolidate the three states, he will also need the help of literary talents!"

"General Zhao, who has always shouted and shouted and only believed in force, has now learned to respect civil servants. I feel that I am not only impressed with you." Zhao Kuangzan said so.

"The general thinks that the king should promote the civil servants in Youyan, so as not to be stolen by the people of the court!" Zhao Siwan suggested.

"Didn't the generals and academies in the army despise civil servants all these years, thinking that they are useless, and asking for state and county posts and civil affairs?" Zhao Kuangzan said playfully.

Upon hearing this, Zhao Siwan opened his eyes and said, "Those fellows, what do they know? Can they handle money, food and fields? Can they understand books and lawsuits?"

"Although this statement is vulgar, it makes sense!" Zhao Kuangzan commented.

However, when he turned his head, Zhao Kuangzan's eyes flashed a little strangeness, this Zhao Siwan, originally known as brave, was the most vicious general under his command.But now it seems that he is a little more cunning, knows how to think, knows to focus on the future, and knows to value civil servants.

Originally, in the Yan army system, headed by Zhao Siwan, there was a force, and it continued to grow during these years.But now it seems that this Zhao Siwan is not only in the army, but also wants to get involved in civil affairs.

There are countless possibilities in the future, and there may be a situation where Youyan will survive the Han-Liao battle and remain semi-independent.And Zhao Siwan relied on the military and political power he had organized to continuously strengthen his strength. In the future, he would even be able to escape from the soil of King Yan Group and become a new military and political group based on the soil of Youyan.

Give a protagonist template, in the next few decades or hundreds of years, or both Han and Liao will suffer losses, or the national strength of the two parties will decline, Zhao Siwan's descendants will take the opportunity to rise and achieve great things
Of course, as far as the moment is concerned, what Zhao Kuangzan felt from Zhao Siwan's words was deep ambition.Maybe Zhao Siwan didn't even realize it, nor did she have too far-reaching insights, but strengthening her own strength and protecting her own power and property were almost instinctive reactions and practices.

However, as a king who has been in charge of Youyan for many years, no matter what, Zhao Kuangzan has the attribute of "the master of others", and also has the scheming and suspicion of being the master of others.

Thinking silently, Zhao Kuangzan suddenly realized that for Zhao Siwan, he could no longer just regard him as a brave man as usual.A thing called "suspicion" gradually occupied Zhao Kuangzan's heart. Zhao Siwan claimed to know his heart well and expressed his loyalty repeatedly.

However, his "Yan Yan's big plan" clearly arranged the future. For Zhao Kuangzan, even though he has always been broad-minded and powerful, he still feels offended.

No matter what, the King of Yan is Zhao Kuangzan, how to choose in the future, and what Youyan will do is up to him, Zhao Kuangzan, not you, Zhao Siwan.Obviously, Zhao Siwan didn't understand this truth.

After thinking about it seriously, Zhao Kuangzan put a little smile on his mouth and asked, "General Zhao, I'm a little curious. With your bravery, even if you submit to the court, you can still be a general, keep your wealth, and make some military exploits in the future. It is not difficult to think about it as an official.

But why do you keep persuading me to preserve my power, even at the expense of fighting the imperial court? "

Hearing Zhao Kuangzan's question, Zhao Siwan groaned, and the scars on his face seemed to be a little less publicized. After a while, he said: "The two generations of the king and his son have the kindness to know the future, so they should be loyal. In addition, forgive the general To put it bluntly, under the command of the great king, the last general will be the number one general, with a prominent reputation, such as submitting to the imperial court, not to mention being controlled by others in the future, how can there be a place for me in the Han army?"

"You're really telling the truth!" Zhao Kuangzan said after looking at him.

Zhao Siwan said: "Your Majesty treats the generals like brothers and sisters, and the generals should treat them with sincerity!"

"When we get to Waqiao Pass, there are many people with mixed eyes. You have to control your words and keep your words today secret!" Zhao Kuangzan urged with his eyes deepening.

"The general understands!" Zhao Siwan cupped his hands.

After walking for a while, Zhao Siwan took the initiative to remind again: "Your Majesty, don't blame me for talking too much. This time, you have come south under the order of Emperor Han, and you have only these thousand horses to protect you. If the Emperor Han suddenly If you have evil intentions and detain the king, at that time, our Yan army's power will collapse and be easily obtained by the court."

His eyes were slightly fixed, and Zhao Siwan's words obviously made Zhao Kuangzan hesitate. After a moment of silence, Zhao Kuangzan said with a wry smile: "I have come here, so it is useless to talk about it. I came here with sincerity. If you have a plan, take it as your life!"

"Ru Shengying is waiting for us at Waqiao Pass, will General Zhao dare to go with me?" Zhao Kuangzan asked Zhao Siwan again.

Zhao Siwan hesitated for a while, and then said affirmatively: "Why don't you dare? If there is any difference, the general will lead his people to fight to the death, and escort the king back to Youzhou. How can a mere Juma River stop me?"

"The general's arrogance is admirable! However, there is no need to worry too much. It is said that the northern frontier generals of the Great Han Dynasty have all been deployed below. arrange"

"hope so!"

From Shun'an Army to Xin'an Army Juma River section, there is another one named Baigou.On the north side of Waqiaoguan, facing the confluence of Liuli River and far away, a well-defended military post was newly established, named Baigou Post.

When Zhao Kuangzan and his party passed by Baigou Station, they met An Shouzhong who had been waiting for a long time, and the yellow six-horse Yujia.
