Yue Fei, Liu Bowen, and Fang Xuanling stood up and left.
Seeing several people exiting the imperial tent, Yang Gao closed his eyes and fell into deep thought. As Chen Ping said, Jia Xu's plan required an outstanding envoy to go to the enemy camp to defraud Temujin's trust.
Yang Gao, who came from a later generation, had a better understanding of Genghis Khan, the genius of his generation, than Liu Bowen, Chen Ping, Fang Xuanling and other advisers. It would be easy for Temujin to see through any messenger he sent there.
The person who goes to the enemy camp must not only be eloquent, but also bold and careful, and must also have some deception skills. For example, Zhang Yi during the Warring States Period used a clever mouth to deceive King Chu Huai several times, and finally deceived King Huai of Chu. He was tricked to death.
Yang Gao initially planned to summon a famous envoy from the system, but then he thought about it and realized something was wrong. After all, this is not a diplomatic trip on behalf of the Sui Dynasty, and not every envoy is qualified for the job.
For example, Tang Ju was mentioned in the Chinese textbook. Although the Anling Kingdom had protected fifty miles away from the powerful Qin, the era was different and the scene was different. If he dared to say "Has your Majesty tasted the wrath of the common people" in front of Temujin like he did in history? Mu Zhen will definitely let him try the sharpness of the sword.
"Famous diplomatic envoys in history are firstly known for their eloquence and secondly for their integrity."
Yang Gao murmured to himself and secretly sent an instruction to the system: "System, can I continue to refine it after choosing a diplomatic direction when summoning? I can pay more soul points."
"impossible!"
The system's three cold words shattered Yang Gao's hopes.
Yang Gao sighed helplessly and secretly counted whether anyone under his command could be qualified for this responsibility: "Among the generals, no one is qualified. Among the civil servants, Jiangdu and Luoyang may not have enough time.
Although Jia Xu has temporarily blocked the news, paper cannot keep the fire after all. Even if he rushes from Luoyang to Jiangdu, it will not be possible in a short time. Even if Temujin has no news in Hebei, Li Tang will definitely know it. According to the news, given the current situation, Li Tang will definitely inform Temujin.
"I'm afraid the only ones who can be used are the few people around me. Liu Bowen and Fang Xuanling are a little lacking in this way of governing the country. Chen Ping may be qualified, but as an important counselor of mine, I'm afraid he has been in Youzhou for so long. I have been seen by Temujin’s sentinel, and I absolutely cannot risk my trusted advisors for this plan.”
Yang Gao was a little unwilling to give up this plan. Bohai County was located behind the main force of the Sui army. With Temujin's strategic vision, once he believed in the Bohai Incident, he would definitely send elite troops to sit in the Bohai Sea to threaten the Sui army's rear and cut off supplies. road.
According to Yang Gao's own estimation, this elite division must number at least 30,000 people.
The Turks claim to have millions of armored men, but these millions of troops are composed of various tribes and are not controlled by Temujin alone.
With his strong army, Temujin became the leader of the Turks and founded the Yuan Dynasty. However, his foundation was still shallow and his people were not attached to him. This can be seen from the previous rebellion of Yelu Abaoji.
On the battlefield in Youzhou, once the losses of the armies of various tribes are too large or the direct troops of Temujin himself suffer heavy casualties, the chiefs of those tribes will inevitably have strange thoughts. This will be a problem for Yang Gao now to regain Youzhou. It will be of great help in fighting Turks in the future.
"Your Majesty, the general has captured a sneaky Confucian scholar outside the camp. He keeps shouting and asking to see Your Majesty!"
Tang Bin's voice, who was arranged by Yue Fei to patrol outside the camp, suddenly sounded, interrupting Yang Gao's thoughts.
Yang Gao was stunned for a moment, waved his hand and said, "Bring him in!"
Not long after, Tang Bin escorted a Confucian scholar into the tent.
"I have met His Majesty!"
This Confucian scholar was also arrogant. When he saw Yang Gao, he just bowed slightly as a salute.
"Be bold!"
When Tang Bin saw this, he immediately yelled, raised his sword and yelled: "You are a rude madman, how dare you be so presumptuous in front of His Majesty!"
"I've heard for a long time that His Majesty is eager to seek talents and treats virtuous officers like a wise master. But when I saw him today, huh, it was all a misunderstanding based on rumors!"
The Confucian scholar ignored Tang Bin, looked at Yang Gao and said with a sneer.
Yang Gao also sneered and said: "If someone comes to Sui Dynasty sincerely, I will naturally sweep the couch to welcome him and treat him with the courtesy of a national scholar. But not only do I not see sincerity in you, but I feel the exposed edge. As far as I am concerned, you are my enemy, and you still greet your enemies with a smile. Wouldn’t this be even more ridiculous, sir?"
Tang Bin on the other side immediately said: "Crazy guy, this general has been paying attention to you for a long time on patrol outside. You came to the camp gate several times to watch and then turned away. Your Majesty, the general thought that this thief was clearly sent by Temujin." spies!"
Yang Gao smiled slightly, waved his hand and said: "No matter what, he is still a scholar. Not every scholar is like Fan Wencheng, who doesn't even have his own ancestors!"
The Confucian scholar's face became slightly kinder after hearing this. He took a deep breath, knelt on the ground and saluted Yang Gao respectfully: "Sinners of all kinds, join us, Your Majesty!"
Suihe? Sui He persuaded Yingbu to betray Chu and return to Han?
After hearing this, Yang Gao quickly began to recall in his mind. Although Suihe had been in the world for a while, he really didn't make it clear, so Yang Gao also somewhat forgot about him.
"I remember that Zhu Yuanzhang seemed to have a counselor named Sui He."
Yang Gao quickly went through the information about the characters in his mind, and spoke slowly.
"Your Majesty, the sinner was indeed under Zhu Yuanzhang's command in the past."
Sui He did not deny it, and admitted the matter honestly, "But now Zhu Yuanzhang has lost his city and territory, and is dependent on others. He relies on the Tang army for food, grass and military supplies. The sinner thought that he had lost the capital to compete in the world, so he abandoned him.
The sinner originally wanted to go to His Majesty, but he was worried that Your Majesty would pursue his past rebellion, so he went to the camp gate several times and refused to enter. "
"You are quite honest."
Yang Gao smiled slightly and put away the murderous intention in his heart. If Suihe had denied the matter, Yang Gao would have ordered Tang Bin to kill him without hesitation.
"I also know that the world is in chaos now, and there are many people who become thieves in order to make a living. As long as they are not like Shi Jingtang, Wu Sangui, and Fan Wencheng, who forget their ancestors and betray their country and join the barbarians, I can forgive them."
"Sinner, thank you for your understanding."
Sui He immediately bowed his head and said thanks.
Yang Gao looked at Suihe in front of him, and as soon as his eyes rolled, he suddenly had something in mind.
Just now I was no longer worried about who should be sent to pretend to be the Bohai noble envoy to the Turkic camp to deceive Temujin.
A person who can speak against Yingbu, a veteran general who has followed Xiang Yu for many years when the situation of the conflict between Chu and Han is not yet very clear, must be very eloquent, even if he cannot say six miles into six hundred like Zhang Yi. , presumably it won’t be much worse.
In addition, this move can also test Suihe's sincerity. Even if he pretends to surrender and inform Temujin of the matter, the final result is that Temujin did not take the bait, and in fact, there is not much loss to Yang Gao.
