Great Tang Dynasty

Chapter 1712 Intercepting Silla
The list was a bit long, after Qiu Yuan glanced at it, his eyes moved slightly.

Above this is a list of gifts.

Obviously, Gao Yu wanted to curry favor with him.

"General Qiu, I hope that General Qiu will accept it, and don't be angry with me, Goguryeo. Now my Goguryeo may be wiped out by the Tang Dynasty at any time, and if my Goguryeo is destroyed, you Baekje will have no resistance." Datang’s barrier is broken, Datang and Silla are allies, and the Silla Congress spared you Baekje?”

When Gao Yu said this, Gao Yu had already gathered up his body, but at this moment, Qiu Yuan didn't show his angry face anymore.

First of all, the things that Gao Yu gave were indeed quite a lot, which would allow his Qiu family to live comfortably. Who wouldn't be tempted by such money?

Isn't it for these things that they become officials?

Now that he had these things, the lives of his brothers who died in Silla were nothing.

What's more, he also knew that what Gao Yu said was correct. If Goguryeo was destroyed, their situation in Baekje would be bad.

At that time, he, the general of Baekje, had to go head-to-head with Tang Jun, but if even Goguryeo was not Datang's opponent, would he be able to do it?

Qiu Yuan put away the list and said, "Tell me, what do you want this general to do."

"Simple, Goguryeo already has a countermeasure against the Tang army, but Silla has sent troops to support the Tang army. In order for my Goguryeo plan to succeed, my king hopes that you, Baekje, can stop Silla. To buy some time for me to resist the Tang army in Goguryeo, as long as I can resist them for a few days, we might have a chance to come back......"

Gao Yu told Qiu Yuan about the situation, and after hearing this, Qiu Yuan was a little shocked, that Goguryeo had a way to repel the Tang army?
However, even though he was shocked, he also felt delighted. After all, this was good news for Baekje. Moreover, it was only for them to intercept the troops of Silla instead of fighting the Tang army. , is it easier and easier?
After thinking for a while, Qiu Yuan nodded: "Okay, the general already knows what you said, and I will tell the king about it."

Seeing this, Gao Yu finally breathed a sigh of relief. He knew that money is easy to do. No matter how much Qiu Yuan hates them, he probably won't have trouble with money, right?

After saying this, Gao Yu withdrew, and Qiu Yuan didn't hesitate, and went straight into the palace to meet Cui Jianshi.

"Aiqing is here, but what's the matter?"

Qiu Yuan nodded and said, "Your Majesty, just now, Gao Yu, an envoy of Goguryeo, went to the last general's residence."

Hearing this, Cui Jianshi's eyes narrowed slightly, somewhat sharply.

Goguryeo's envoys came to their Baekje country, but they didn't see him as the king, but met his courtiers. What does he mean?
However, Cui Jianshi was not too angry, because Qiu Yuan came to tell him about it, which showed that Qiu Yuan was still very loyal to him.

"What is he going to your house for?" Cui Jianshi asked coldly.

Qiu Yuan said: "Firstly, I want to apologize to the general. After all, I thought about Xinluo at the beginning, and what they did was not kind, which caused the general to almost die in Xinluo. What's more, he gave me some money, and I hope I can do it." Please ask His Majesty the King to send troops to stop Silla's soldiers and horses marching towards their Koguryo King City."

Qiu Yuan was tenacious, and said everything. Of course, he must have kept most of the money, and only a small part of it was said. After all, he wanted to gain the trust of their king. It is to be false and true, half-truth and half-false.

And things are indeed like this, Qiu Yuan told the situation so honestly, even when he took all the money that Gao Yu gave him on the surface, Cui Jianshi's expression really looked a lot better.

He Cui Jianshi likes people who are loyal to Baekje, if someone is not loyal to Baekje, then no matter how powerful this person is, what is the use?

"So that's what happened, well, the king knows about it."

Qiu Yuan nodded, and said: "Your Majesty, the last general thought that Goguryeo should be chilled to make them feel uncomfortable, but after listening to Gao Yu's words, I think it's time for Baekje to stop it." It must be easier for Silla to go to war with the Tang Dynasty. Now that Goguryeo is intercepting the Tang army, we can't let them worry about the future, otherwise Goguryeo will be destroyed by the Tang army, and Baekje will not be able to bring us any favors."

Suddenly hearing Qiu Yuan speak for Goguryeo, Cui Jianshi's eyes froze again.

"Are you pleading for Goguryeo?"

Qiu Yuan shook his head: "No, I didn't want any benefits from Gao Yu, and there was no need to intercede for Goguryeo. The general was only planning for Baekje. In comparison, Silla is definitely easy to deal with. Datang It's difficult to deal with, if we Baekje don't seize this opportunity, we will probably have to fight Tang Jun, and at that time, the life and death of our Baekje country will be unpredictable."

At this time, Qiu Yuan bit the bullet and wanted to say something.

After he said this, Cui Jianshi, who was a little angry at first, calmed down slowly. There are many things that really need to be carefully considered.

He thought like this, and after a long time, he finally said: "Qiu Aiqing is right. If that's the case, then let Gao Yu go to the palace tomorrow morning. I will personally listen to him say that he wants my Baekje." There is no benefit in sending troops, but it cannot be done.”

Qiu Yuan nodded in response, and then hurriedly retreated without staying in the palace.

Early the next morning, Gao Yu went to the hall.

Cui Jianshi glanced at him and said: "Yesterday, General Qiu came to talk to the king about something, that's why the king is willing to see you, if you want my Baekje country to send troops, how much benefit can you, Goguryeo, give me to Baekje. "

Originally, as an ally, such benefits were not acceptable, but now, Goguryeo is ashamed of Baekje, and Baekje wants some money for the sake of those innocent soldiers, right?
Gao Yu was not too nervous, as long as Cui Jianshi was willing to see him, the matter would most likely be successful.

He talked about some benefits from Tian Yuan. Cui Jianshi thought it was okay after listening to it, so he didn't make things difficult for Gao Yu anymore. After nodding, he said, "Okay, your Goguryeo is not bad, I will send troops soon Horse, intercepting the reinforcements from the Silla Kingdom rushing to your royal city."

After saying this, Gao Yu quickly thanked him, and after that, he didn't stay longer in Baekje, and directly returned to the Koguryo King City. This time, he was not afraid of Baekje's backlash, and did not send troops when he agreed to send troops.

Because they have no patience in Goguryeo, and Baekje, I am afraid they also know the seriousness of the matter.
