Li Wanjiang would not kill Kobayashi Moriichi because he was still an envoy from Japan, and he would not let him commit suicide. It would be unclear after his death, and the Japanese might bite him again.
Just put him under house arrest temporarily, and then send someone to interrogate him severely! This is just a procedure, because Li Wanjiang already knows everything that needs to be known.
He found his deputy envoy, sternly rebuked him, and wrote a letter in person for him to take back to Emperor Kamitasu. In the letter, he expressed his disappointment, anger, and solemn protest against the Japanese people and Emperor Kamitasu's brother.
I hope they can give themselves a reasonable explanation... In fact, there is still room for it.
But something must be done, and an order was immediately issued to recall all officials in Gojuli. Babaili hurriedly issued a stern order to Li Wanyun, asking them to make a defensive posture against the Japanese troops stationed in Yizhou, as if they were ready at any time. They might start a war with them.
In fact, everyone knows that it is impossible for the two sides to start a war. The Japanese have no reason to fight, and Li Wanjiang has no strength to fight. Such a gesture is just to add some chips to future negotiations.
There are still no high-tech means of recording and video recording, so as long as Xiao Linsen refuses to admit it, or just admits that it is his own initiative and has nothing to do with Emperor Shenzhao, Li Wanjiang really has nothing to do with him.
In fact, Li Wanjiang was not very surprised by this, because if he were Emperor Shenzhao, he would definitely do this, and he might do it even more brilliantly than Emperor Shenzhao!
But this incident also sounded the alarm for Li Wanjiang, that is, the Japanese people's ambitions were far greater than he imagined, and their actions were far more urgent than he imagined, and they were all aggressive.
Maybe I was too weak before, so they naively thought that I was easy to bully?
"Is this the case with Xiao Chen?" The person asking the question was not himself, but Xiao Chen.
"I think the emperor is far-sighted, but Japanese people are short-sighted." Xiao Chen couldn't answer this question directly, so he could only vaguely explain it.
"They, a small Japanese country, can be treacherous and capricious. I am the monarch of China, but I cannot break my promise or go back on my words." Li Wanjiang sighed, "This is probably a villain meeting a gentleman, and the gentleman is bullied by him, but he Is there nothing you can do?"
"At least the little devil's wolfish ambition has been revealed." Xiao Chen said.
"Do you still have any contact with Wanyan Pingqiu?" Li Wanjiang suddenly asked.
"Yes, yes, but..." Xiao Chen paused and then said, "It's the kind of scolding each other. He scolds me for being rebellious and abandoning him, and I scold him for being unfaithful and unjust."
"Hahaha, when it comes to scolding people, I see that Wanyan Pingqiu is no match for you." Li Wanjiang said in his heart, "I love you, you don't have to be shy. I'm afraid Wanyan Pingqiu is not scolding you, but me." .
"But when it comes to fighting, I am not his opponent." Xiao Chen said, "Although I was lucky enough to win a battle with him in Yinshan before, his Northern Xinjiang alliance was still in disarray at that time, and both Chen and the Xianbo people It was a last-ditch fight, and everyone risked their lives to fight them off... He is no longer the same as before!"
"Haha, I underestimated him before. Even Wan Yanhong, a generation of heroes, failed to unify Northern Xinjiang, but he did it. It's really amazing." Li Wanjiang said.
"Actually, it's still an alliance, not unification." Xiao Chen didn't know if Li Wanjiang meant something else, so he answered cautiously, "At least the Henghe tribe was dissatisfied with him, and King Moro of Xianbo was also a woman. A hero may not be willing to live under him for a long time."
"I heard that you have a close friendship with that Wu Luolan?" Li Wanjiang asked with a half-smile.
"We still have a little friendship, but it's not very deep. Mojie and Helan are both from different races. I don't dare to have too close contact with them. I'm just being hypocritical. I'm afraid that one day The backlash is just like the Japanese..." Xiao Chen said.
"What I'm worried about is not only the Japanese people, nor the tribes in the northern Xinjiang, but also the Rus people and the people from the Western Regions..." Li Wanjiang sighed, feeling that the northern realm was turbulent and unpredictable, and even he could not predict the future. situation.
"Old Master Murong is guarding the Western Region, so why do the young men in the Western Region dare to invade the border?" Xiao Chen asked.
"They don't dare to invade Luomapo, but they don't necessarily dare to invade Yanyun. If we officially start a war with the Northern Xinjiang tribe, I'm afraid they will take advantage of it immediately! Aiqing, you are in Yanyun, and you can't see the situation clearly. ?" Li Wanjiang said.
"The emperor taught you a lesson." Xiao Chen said hurriedly, "I, the governor, acted in a confused manner, just like a monk in a temple."
"What monk?" Li Wanjiang was stunned.
"Be a monk for a day and hit the clock for a day." Xiao Chen said.
"Nonsense!" Li Wanjiang was angry and funny, "You are a feudal official, why are you comparing yourself to a monk?"
"I am a monk, and the emperor is the Buddha. When the monk chants sutras, I will recite the emperor. No matter how the situation in Yanyun changes in the future, it is right for me to always listen to the emperor." Xiao Chen said.
"Our soldiers and people have been exhausted and overwhelmed by the continuous wars in the Great Zhou Dynasty, so I can no longer make enemies everywhere. Therefore, even though the Japanese people are treacherous and the tribes in northern Xinjiang are brazenly rebellious, I want to attack them, but I am powerless. ." Li Wanjiang sighed.
Xiao Chen was silent, thinking that you finally got to the point. Haha, wouldn't it be embarrassing for you to change the emperor's orders every day and go back on your promise?
"So the stability of the north can only be left to Aiqing. I know Aiqing that you have this ability..." Li Wanjiang looked at Xiao Chen eagerly.
"As for the long-term plan, it still needs to be decided by the Holy Will, but for the current plan... I think it is better to lead the war to the east." Li Wanjiang refused to say it, so Xiao Chen could only say it for him.
To the east is Gao Juli.
Xiao Chen means to let Wanyan Pingqiu and the Japanese fight like dogs. The more lively they fight, the safer our Yanyun County will be.
If the war goes against the Japanese, we can secretly support them. If Wanyan Pingqiu cannot defeat the Japanese, we can also secretly support him.
Anyway, we are just sitting on the mountain watching the tiger fight. No matter who wins or loses in the future, we can reap the benefits, at least we will not lose anything.
Wanyan Pingqiu originally went to Gao Juli, but Your Majesty, you insist on cooperating with the Japanese and forcing them to retreat. Now that they have retreated, you want them to fight again... Can the two sides fight? Don't say anything before you get up, just ask the emperor if you want to slap him in the face?
"Yeah!" Li Wanjiang was greatly pleased when he heard this, "Aiqing's words make sense, but..."
"But in my humble opinion, it is better for Gao Juli to fall into the hands of Wanyan Pingqiu than to fall into the hands of the Japanese." Xiao Chen hurriedly took over.
The reason is very simple. The Japanese have a strong national power and many capable ministers. After they occupy Gao Juli, it will take less than ten years to digest it, or even completely incorporate it into their territory.
