Turbulent Times Chapter 1360: When will Wang Junlin arrive?
Dugu Changsu didn't dare to talk nonsense anymore, and said: "First, His Majesty personally went to the top of the city, went to the army to boost the morale of the soldiers, appointed officials on the spot and made a wish, with the honor of His Majesty the Son of Heaven, the soldiers must believe it, the so-called great rewards There must be a brave man, I believe it will definitely improve the morale of the army."
Yang Guang nodded, expressing his approval of this strategy.
Dugu Chief Su An breathed a sigh of relief, and continued: "Secondly, your Majesty sent an envoy to negotiate with the Turkic Khan. You might as well negotiate with the Turkic Khan first, agree to some conditions first, and then deliberately delay the time. After the reinforcements arrive, you must Can clear the siege."
Everyone nodded, and Yang Guang also agreed with this proposal. It has to be said that although Dugu Changsu has a lot of selfishness, he is able to become the patriarch of the most powerful Dugu Clan in the world. His talent and mind are indeed impressive. It's just that he was eager to escape just now and despised others, which exposed his own selfishness , almost caused a fatal disaster.
Everyone's opinions tend to be unified. Yuwen Chengdu, Pei Shiju, Yu Shiji, Jing Tian and others also expressed their support for these two strategies, but Yang Guang suddenly asked: "From Fanyang County to Dayan City, what is the fastest way for the army to catch up?" Come on, how long will it take?"
As soon as Yang Guang said this, the scene was suddenly silent. Everyone looked at His Majesty's frustration when he said this, and knew that His Majesty had completely lost confidence, and finally no longer cared about his own face. at the forefront.
The meaning of His Majesty the Emperor is of course to ask when the Far East Army led by Wang Junlin will arrive. Obviously, in Yang Guang's view, even if the other King Qin's army arrives, they may not be able to rescue him. Now he only believes in Wang Junlin The Chinese Far East Army has such strength.
However, half a month ago, His Majesty the Emperor led everyone to discuss how to deal with Wang Junlin, but now His Majesty the Emperor is looking forward to Wang Junlin leading the army to arrive sooner rather than later. So sad.
But the strange thing is that neither the emperor Yang Guang himself nor the courtiers ever doubted whether Wang Junlin would come, even though Wang Junlin's intention of treason was already very obvious.
Of course, this has something to do with what Wang Junlin has been doing all along, and the kind of person he has shown.
No matter what people say about Wang Junlin, the name of Wang Junlin's righteousness is unquestionable, and everyone knows that if His Majesty the Emperor falls in Tu
The Jue people might die in the hands of the Turks, what does it represent to the Great Sui Dynasty, and what does it represent to the tens of thousands of people in the Great Sui Dynasty.
Even though Wang Junlin didn't care about the life and death of the emperor and his courtiers, he would definitely lead an army to rescue them so that thousands of people in the Sui Dynasty would not be slaughtered by the Turks.
No matter how everyone feels and feels awkward, His Majesty still has to answer His Majesty's words. Pei Shiju, who is most familiar with the world's geography and roads, stood up and bowed: "Your Majesty, if Wang Junlin leads the Far East Army at full speed, half a day It will definitely arrive within a month."
When Yang Guang heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief. Although he hated Wang Junlin now, he had to admit that he had become more and more dependent on Wang Junlin these years.
Wang Junlin turned the tide when he was defeated in the defeat of Goguryeo and saw the country shaken;
Yang Su rebelled, and the capital was about to be lost. When Jiangshan was away, it was Wang Junlin who turned the tide;
When rebels broke out all over the world, and when the Central Plains rebels even threatened Luoyang, the capital, Wang Junlin led 5,000 troops to massacre various counties in Henan. Perhaps the purpose was not for him, Yang Guang, but he was also rescued;
Now that he is surrounded by the Turkic army, he only subconsciously believes that only Wang Junlin can turn the tide and save his life.
Yu Wencheng stood up and said: "Your Majesty, Wang Junlin's officials sent three messengers, and they took the relatively safe Youzhou route. In addition, Wang Junlin's Far Eastern Army's Military Information Office may have a very serious problem with His Majesty's itinerary." I also kept watching, I heard that Wang Junlin's military information is conveyed by a kind of flying eagle, maybe before the minister's messenger arrived, Wang Junlin had already learned the news that His Majesty was besieged by the Turks, and led the army to come ahead of time So, don’t worry, Your Majesty, as long as you hold on to the city, it is more likely to delay the time, and you will definitely be able to wait until Wang Junlin leads the Far East Army to arrive.”
At this time, Yang Guang couldn't care less about embarrassment, nodded and said: "If Wang Junlin can save me this time, it will be nothing if I reward him with the entire six counties in Hedong."
Yu Shiji said: "Your Majesty, time is running out. Please send envoys out of the city to negotiate with the Turks, delay the time, and then go to the army at the head of the city to boost the morale of the army."
Yang Guang took a deep breath and said, "What Yu Aiqing said is very true."
As he spoke, Yang Guang glanced at everyone in the audience
People, said: "I don't know, dear friends, who is willing to go for me, serve as my envoy, and go out of the city to negotiate with the Turkic people."
Everyone lowered their heads with unnatural expressions. Everyone knew that this was a narrow escape. If they could live, no one would want to die.
Annoyed in his heart, Yang Guang finally cast his eyes on Pei Shiju and said, "Pei Aiqing, I also know that it is very dangerous to go out of the city to negotiate with the Turkic people at this time, but you have been sent to the Turkic people many times, and now you are negotiating with the Turkic people. You are the one who trusts me, are you willing to take on this great responsibility for me?"
Pei Shiju had long thought that the emperor would think of him first, but he had already prepared a reason to shirk, saying: "Your Majesty, I was ordered by Your Majesty last year to meet Shibi Khan's younger brother and to do that alienation plan. Now it seems that Sibi Khan’s younger brother has betrayed us long ago, and the two of them joined forces to play a show for us, to deceive His Majesty, and make His Majesty lose his vigilance. People must hate the minister to death. Not only will the minister's departure not accomplish anything, but it will not delay the time. On the contrary, it will arouse the anger of Bi Khan and make the Turks attack the city more fiercely. Therefore, for the sake of your majesty's life, please ask another Send others."
Pei Shiju's reason was very good. When Yang Guang heard this, he really didn't dare to send Pei Shiju. He saw other people with his eyes, but the five cabinet ministers standing in the front didn't say a word and all lowered their heads.
At this time, Jing Tian, who was standing behind, sighed secretly, took a few steps forward, stood out from the crowd, bowed to Yang Guang and gave a deep salute, saying: "Your Majesty has the kindness of knowing you, and I am willing to risk my life to serve as your majesty." Share your worries!"
When Yang Guang saw it, he was overjoyed immediately, thinking that there were still loyal ministers who would die for me, so he stepped forward excitedly, grabbed Jing Tian's arm, and said emotionally: "Jing Tian, Zhen I didn't misunderstand you, just go, I will definitely not treat you badly, I will make you the Duke of the state, make you a minister of the cabinet, and I will reward you ten thousand gold."
Jing Tian solemnly said: "Thank you, Your Majesty, there is no time to delay, I will go to prepare now."
Yang Guang nodded again, and said: "This time we are negotiating with Turkic Shibi Khan, I hope that Aiqing will be neither humble nor overbearing, and fight hard according to reason, without losing the respect of the superior country, and try to delay time with the Turkic people as much as possible."
Jing Tian said: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, even if I die, I have to delay the time as much as possible, and at the same time don't fall into my Great Sui Tianwei!"
