I’m Marquis in Great Tang

August passed in a flash and entered September.

The weather in September is even cooler.

Du Qi’s army is still based in Zhangye, and has never continued to attack Longyou Road. But now, the entire Ganzhou has been under Du Qi’s command. Even during this period, there were already some local officials from Longyou Road, and some people from the Great Clan squire of the local squire, who took the initiative to contact Du Qi, hoping to serve as Du Qi’s internal correspondent.

After all, news has spread from the outside that Wei Zheng and Kong Yingda are envoys, and Longyou Road is about to be ceded to Xia Country. Therefore, under this premise, people’s hearts have long been floating.

However, in September, Du Qi has not received any news from Li Shimin, and the situation is a bit tricky. In Du Qi’s heart, it was already inferred that Li Shimin might not accept the condition of cede Longyou Road.

After all, this is like cutting meat.

Not a trivial matter.

Especially Li Shimin, as the emperor of Great Tang, ceded Longyou Road to Xia Country. Great Tang had a great influence on Li Shimin, so even if Li Shimin refused, Du Qi Can understand.

If you want to talk about anger, but it’s not enough. The reason is simple. During this period of time, Du Qi kept arranging bad people to infiltrate the Longyou Dao. Under this premise, he mastered the Longyou Dao. , Has been continuously strengthened.

So Du Qi is not worried at all.

Procrastination has no effect on Du Qi, and Xia Country still has an absolute advantage. From start to finish, Du Qi never arranged for someone to notify Wei Zheng and Kong Yingda, and he waited without urging him.

On this day, Du Qi took some people out of the camp and wandered around the city without any problems.

Now Zhangye has recovered to its prosperity.

People come and go, very lively.

After all, after Ganzhou belonged to Xia Country, merchants quickly arrived for business, and the people settled down. Even some factories came right there, because the less prosperous the place, the lower the labor cost, so many factories are willing to come.

Du Qi is very satisfied with Zhangye like this. He can recover quickly. That is the best result.

While Du Qi was walking around with Mulledo, a soldier came quickly. He arrived at Du Qi’s side and reported: “His Majesty, I have the latest news sent back, Shangguan The head of the cabinet asks you to go back.”

“I see.”

Du Qi nodded, and then returned to the army with Mulledo.

As soon as he entered the camp, Shangguan Yi bowed and saluted, and said: “His Majesty, we are lurking in Great Tang, and even the bad people on Longyou Road have sent back the latest news. Great. On the Tang side, they rejected the condition to cede Longyou Road. In addition, Great Tang also introduced measures to resist our Xia Country army.”

Du Qi asked: “The Great Tang side has been officially awarded The law, has it been announced to the world?”

“This is never before!”

Shangguan Yi shook the head, saying: “His Majesty, the news from the bad guys is, Great Tang On the other hand, an order was issued to recruit people of insight, form an army on their own, and go to Longyou Road to resist us. Anyone who can stop our Xia Country army can stop the Xia Country army outside Longyou Road and directly seal Longxi Wang, sitting in Longyou Road, hereditary. Isn’t this order rejecting our conditions and fighting to the end with my Xia Country?”

Du Qi laughed when he heard this, and said “Whose bad idea is this arrangement! This arrangement may be useful. But how can a group of mobs resist the army of Xia Country. Li Shimin is already out of wits!”

Shangguan Yi said: “All Listens to your Majesty, Li Shimin really can’t help it.” Du Qi said: “It seems that Li Shimin will not summon the world alone to say that he refuses to ask for peace. Because now If Li Shimin does not issue an imperial decree or specifically issues an edict, it may delay time. If you delay a little longer, you can gain more opportunities and let more people gather in Longyou Road.”

Shangguan Yi Said: “Li Shimin seems to be a wonderful move, but in reality, it is helpless.”

paused, Shangguan Yi continued: “Today’s Longyou Road, there are indeed many people gathered, starting Gathered in the Longyou Road, intending to compete for this Longxi King. Li Shimin’s bait made many ambitious people gather in Longyou Road.”

Du Qi said solemnly: “It’s no problem, These people are not worth mentioning.”

Shangguan Yi said: “His Majesty, Grea t Tang rejected our terms. So how do we arrange for Wei Zheng and Kong Yingda? After all, Li Tang has rejected our goodwill, even if he killed Wei Zheng and Kong Yingda, that would not be an exaggeration. “

Du Qi shook his head and said: “No need. “

If the two countries are not fighting, there is no need for Du Qi to kill these two people.

Shangguan Yi has sharp eyes and said: “His Majesty, it’s time to fight Great Tang.” At the critical moment, in fact, killing Wei Zheng and Kong Yingda, on the contrary, can kill chickens and monkeys, and shock Great Tang. “

Du Qi said: “It’s easy to kill, but in fact, our battle with Great Tang has turned from defense to offense and started a full-scale attack. After our army has completely captured Longyou Road, the next step is to divide the troops and attack the whole country gradually. After all, Great Tang now has leaks from all sides, and the potential for defeat is obvious. “

paused, Du Qi continued: “So for the moment, we still have to keep the talent. After Great Tang fell, he faced the problem of managing Great Tang. Whether it is Wei Zheng or Kong Yingda, they are all talents. They will be temporarily released to Great Tang and kept for future use. This governs Great Tang, but it is different from India. The situation in India is simple, seemingly complicated, but in fact not complicated. On the contrary, the situation in Great Tang is more difficult to manage. “

Shangguan Yi said after listening: “All Listens to your Majesty!” “

Du Qi said: “Come here! “

The soldier enters, Du Qi instructed: “Go and notify Wei Zheng and Kong Yingda to come to the discussion. “

In a short while, Wei Zheng and Kong Yingda have already entered.

The two bowed and saluted Du Qi.

Du Qi looked at them, indifferently said: “Wei Xiang and Libation Chancellor Kong, this has been a little over a month. The soldiers you sent back to spread the letter have already returned to Cháng’ān. But from start to finish, Cháng’ān didn’t have any reply. Have you ever received a letter from Li Shimin? “

“Never! “

Wei Zheng and Kong Yingda shook their heads and replied.

In fact, after waiting for a month, they haven’t received any news yet. Both Wei Zheng and Kong Yingda already have a spectrum in their hearts. It was Li Shimin who refused to cede the Longyou Road. There was no news.

This is Wei Zheng’s original words. In his letter, Wei Zheng has made it very clear that once Li Shimin wants If you refuse, you will delay the time deliberately, regardless of their safety.

Du Qi said solemnly: “Wei Xiang, Libation Chancellor Kong, it seems that Li Shimin, really did not take the lives of you two, taking seriously. Why do you say that, because now Great Tang has taken action, calling on countless people of insight and offering rewards for heroes. As long as they can recruit troops to resist my Xia Country army on Longyou Road, they will be named the King of Longxi, hereditary. , Yongzhen Longyou Road. “

“This is Li Shimin’s reply. “

“It was Li Shimin’s decision. “

Du Qi shrugged, he said: “You said, on this premise, will Li Shimin still agree to cede?” I would definitely not agree. Unfortunately, Li Shimin took action, but never arranged for someone to notify you two. It can be seen that the two of you are now abandoned sons. Just like Zhangsun Wuji in the past, you were forced to suffocate yourself, and then Li Yuan took the body to me to beg for peace. “

Wei Zheng and Kong Yingda frowned slightly.

To say that Li Shimin gave up on them, in fact the two of them were mentally prepared for a long time. They were just mentally prepared, and told Du Qi There are still some differences, and after Du Qi said it, the two people still feel a little sad.

Li Shimin’s resistance was what they expected, and they even wrote letters long ago. Suggestions are given in, but Li Shimin did not arrange for someone to notify them so that they can respond.

This is a bit chilling.

One more There is still a difference between arrangement and no arrangement. The subtleties can detect people’s hearts.
