Chapter 421

Queen Fan suddenly realized that she shouldn't say what she said just now, and smiled at Mo Hun awkwardly, and hurriedly retreated.

Mo Hun lowered his head and pondered for a moment, suddenly raised his head and said to the servants beside him: "Go, summon Prime Minister Fan Man and General Fan Tuo, and summon all the other officials above the third level, especially the national teacher and deputy prime minister whom I have just been appointed."

After a while, the small Funan Palace was crowded with people. Mo Hun then told them one by one about the reasons for calling them.

As soon as Mo Hun finished speaking, Fan Man immediately advised: "King, we must not be driven by the Zhuluo people to attack Liang State. Otherwise, it will be the day when the disaster of Funan State is coming."

Mo Hun didn't raise his eyes and said calmly: "Prime Minister, I naturally know this truth. But if we do not obey the request of the Jura people, it will violate the oath made in front of Lord Shiva. And what if the Jura people come to attack us because of this?"

Van Mann sighed, "I know that the king is in a dilemma now. The biggest consequence of our offense to the Jura people is that the Jura people attack us from the sea, causing great losses to us. But they have no foundation on land, and are separated from their land by Hongshawadi, Langya Xiu and other places. They will never be able to go ashore and go deep into the hinterland of Funan. If they do it, my husband and my son will definitely be able to easily eradicate them for Funan and for the king. As for the violation of the oath, there is a reason for the matter. The king was willing to surrender to Jura back then because of Jura.

The upper king Karikara is blessed by Lord Shiva, which represents the will of Lord Shiva. Now Karikara has obviously been abandoned by Lord Shiva, and the original conditions are no longer valid. The king does not have to abide by this oath. Please think about it, isn’t such oaths and acts of violating the oath common in the Simon Continent or the Southeast Islands? Please see, a few years ago, the Liang Navy marched the eastward all the way. In addition to the Gandoli Kingdom, which occupied the magpie nest, which one of the countries along the way that once spoke allegiance to Karakara did not turn around and join Liang?”

Fan Man said so much in one breath, and had to stop and take a breath. An old man with a triangular eye goatee next to him was about to speak, but Mo Hun stopped him with a gesture. Fan Man continued:

"In contrast, I have heard that Liang's army is strong and strong, and controls the boundary of thousands of miles. Its momentum is unstoppable. In the past few days, the Liang army defeated Zhuluo on Ceylon Island and destroyed the two major fleets of Zhuluo. Imagine that even if I join forces with Zhuluo at the moment, how can I shake the Liang's power in Hongshawadi? In the end, the Zhuluo people will inevitably retreat and retreat to Zhuluo's land. They can leave, but what should we do when Funan? Can we resist the tiger and wolf army of Liang with the power of one country? The two powers will be less serious. Therefore, we should not pay attention to the Zhuluo people's request."

As soon as Van Man finished speaking, the hall suddenly became noisy, and the ministers expressed their approval of Van Man.

But Mo Hun was still silent without saying a word. In fact, he also thought that Van Man's words were very reasonable. He was about to issue an order according to Van Man's advice, but he heard the ministers' praise and flattery for Van Man, and then swallowed the words to his mouth.

As a result, he just raised his eyelids and glanced at the ministers. Finally, his eyes were on the old man with a triangular eye, goatee. The old man was no one else, but was the Prime Minister of Gandoli, who had been seeking help from Funan and escaped from Gandoli. Back then, he fled to Funan with a boat full of treasures and several concubines. After meeting Mo Hun, the latter did not agree to his request.

Chupipeng lived in Funan as he planned in advance, and then Chupipeng passed by a few years in a daze. Only a few moments ago Mo Hun suddenly remembered him and reactivated him. In fact, Mo Hun wanted to use him to curb the power of Fan.

At this time, Chupipeng found that Mo Hun stared at him with his eyes. He knew that he was time to speak, so he said the words he had written.

"I believe that the Prime Minister's words are not bad. Although Liang seems powerful, it is full of dangers."

"Oh, why is Liang State full of dangers? Tell me to me."

Chupipeng coughed twice and cleared his throat, saying, "First, Liang's troops were expeditioning Ceylon Island, and the territory...at least the troops in Hongshawadi were empty, and the navy had no ships. Second, the Han Empire, which Liang's nominal belonged to, was actually divided into pieces. Those vassal states that respected the Han court seemed to be brothers of Liang, but in the eyes of the old ministers, they were always sharp swords on the back of Liang. As long as we make a little use, we can get miraculous results."

Fan Man smiled and said, "My Lord wants to use others, but I'm afraid others want to use us to help the South Country."

Chupipeng laughed twice, then said with a righteous expression: "The Prime Minister is right. Those brother countries of Liang also wish us to be enemies with Liang. This just shows that Liang has many actual enemies. Since they have common enemies, they have the value of mutual use. If they have no value to the other party, but have to use the other party, then this use cannot be reassuring."

Chupipeng's words were rigorous, and Fan Mann could not find any flaws. He continued with a pale face, "So Master Zhang Gong, how do you want these Han vassal states to help us?"

Chupipeng said expressionlessly: "Didn't I say it clearly just now? If you want to use the other party, you must first let the other party see that they can use their own value. The way we can let the other party see that they can use their own value is to agree to the request of the Zhuluo people and send troops to attack Shawadi. As long as we win, we can allow Wu, the distant Linjiang, Wei, and even the Yue Kingdom, which is often enemies of our enemies. By then, the Liang Kingdom, which is not affected by the enemy, will not be prevented from being driven out of Hongshawadi. From then on, our Funan Kingdom will become the master of the entire peninsula and even the southeastern archipelago, and the maritime trade roads will bring us a steady stream of wealth..."

Just as Chupipeng was looking forward to a bright future for Mo Hun, General Fan Tuo, who had not spoken for a long time, said, "But all this is based on the speculation of Lord Zhengye. What if we send troops to defeat the Liang army in Shawadi Port? If we defeat the Liang army, the countries you mentioned still did not support us and attack the Liang Kingdom? At that time, the local battle situation of the Zhulu people would be reversed, but the Liang army would not withdraw from Hongshawadi and would concentrate their efforts to deal with us. Do you also want to abandon us Funan Kingdom like you abandoned Gandoli? In addition, I would like to ask Lord Zhengye, is your suggestion for the sake of Funan Kingdom or for revenge on the private revenge of Liang's killing of your family in Paleon?"

Chupipeng's face turned ugly, and he suddenly sneered: "I am thinking about Funan. As for why I can be sure, as long as we agree to the Zhuluo people's request to start a war against Liang, the vassal states under the name of the Han Empire will help us because I have dealt with them."
