Chapter 71 Chips
It seems that the situation is not as simple as I imagined. Even if it is not formed an alliance, there must be an ulterior motive between these parties. I really can't be careless. Otherwise, once I step out of Wusun, the Wusun Kingdom will coup again, and with the full support of the Three Kingdoms, I am afraid that these two divisions will not be able to turn the situation around. Thinking of this, Liang Chongxin strengthened his thoughts. Although Lord Li had not yet sent an order, Liang Chongxin had decided to make every effort to stabilize the situation in Wusun while trying to protect the Zijing Pass, in order to prevent another incident like the Luzon people from happening behind him when he sent troops to the northwest Luzon.
As for Vito City's defense, we can only rely on Sangsheng's performance, but judging from the current situation, the Luzons seem to have no more power to recover together with Vito City. After all, Vito City has a strong city to rely on, and it is not easy to conquer. If you don't do it well, you will lose a handful of rice. With the mind of the opponent's coach Frederick, you won't be unable to see this.
Turning his face to the south, Liang Chongxin's eyes were deep. Frederick, Frederick, is really an expected opponent. I hope I won't disappoint myself too much.
It seems that Luo Beiren also played a disgraceful role in this. According to the memorandum of agreement reached by the two sides at the end of last year, both sides should prevent the Western Regions from forming targeted political and military alliances. But seeing the unscrupulous joint actions of the Beika people, the Loulan people and the Kuche people, the Loulan people and the Beika people even formed a coalition force. As Luo Beiren, who has a huge influence in the Western Regions, had no response. This made Liang Chongxin doubt what the Luo Beigen headquarters stationed in the eastern part of their territory was thinking. Could it be that Beisang really wanted to risk destroying the balance of power in this area and also put his side in trouble?
He shook his head with a wry smile. It seemed that even the so-called allies were unwilling to be too strong on their side. Liang Chongxin thought a little tragically, and no one wanted to see a powerful force appearing around him. No one wanted to be the so-called allies. Luo Beiren was also afraid that his strength would threaten them in the future. This is understandable.
"Sir, Lord Hu Yan is here." The guard's announcement interrupted Liang Chongxin's contemplation.
"Oh, I understand." He hated this cunning old guy from the bottom of his heart, but in front of anyone, Liang Chongxin showed an extremely good personal relationship with Hu Yandao. He knew that this guy had an influence in Wusun. After all, he was an external force, and the forces of the guard system that was closely related to him, including the leader of the left general Hu Yanqiu, had not yet fully gained a foothold, and could not really compete with the right general Hu Yandao in a short period of time. Therefore, in many aspects, Liang Chongxin still needed the support of the right general Hu Yandao, especially the loss of his old nest Shuangdui, which made him in a more delicate state.
"Please go to your friend's living room for a while, I'll come soon." Seeing the guards' disappearance after salute, Liang Chongxin cheered up his spirits, and a confident aura suddenly surged up on his body. Well, just talk to this old guy, and let him understand that the situation in front of him is a loss and a prosperous one. If you cannot abandon your past grudges, you may not end up with both sides willing to see it. I believe this old guy should see the situation clearly.
Although the talks with Hu Yandao were very difficult, Hu Yandao was a veteran of a long-standing storm after all. His profound view of the current situation was no less than that of Liang Chongxin. The abnormal actions of the countries in the Western Regions also made him feel stressed. He also knew that once the intervention of several countries in the Western Regions succeeded, the great prince Sayed ascended the throne and waited for the fate of the right general who was on the fence to watch the wind. Of course, he would not tolerate such a thing, but he also had to bargain with Liang Chongxin for his own interests. With a common premise, despite the repeated tug-of-war disputes and compromises, the two sides finally reached an agreement.
Under Liang Chongxin's insistence, Huyandao finally made a concession and agreed to add 5,000 troops to the Guards, from the current 10,000 to 15,000, and immediately add them. As a condition, Liang Chongxin also promised to give a batch of excellent weapons and armor to the National Defense Forces controlled by Huyandao in a short time, and to ensure that the Wusun Guards will no longer be added within three years.
Another important topic is to maintain the stability of the political situation in the Usun State and strengthen the strategic allies between the two sides. Both sides agreed to maintain consistency and mutual coordination in military terms, especially in the current sensitive period, and must not give those who have ulterior motives an opportunity to take advantage of it. Liang Chongxin did not hide his side's unfavorable situation in the northwest Luzon, and expressed his preparation for military action to reverse the situation, and also received strong support from Lord Li in the northwest county of the empire. Hu Yandao also expressed his full support to Liang Chongxin's military actions in the northwest Luzon, and Liang Chongxin also hinted that he was willing to support the other side as the first in the Wusun military.
"Come on, come on, Brother Hu Yan, please sit down." Liang Chongxin warmly greeted the man who had just stepped into the door.
The man who walked in the door was half a head taller than the burly Liang Chongxin. He had a wide mouth on his face, a halberd with a curly beard and a halberd. His eyes were slightly deep and concave, and his whole body was wrapped in soft armor. He walked with a professional soldier's aura.
"Brother Liang is so polite." The visitor clasped his fists and spoke fluently Tang language. The Western Regions generally speaks Tianfang language, but due to the influence of Tanghe culture and nomadic people on the grassland, the Hu language used by Tanghe language and the grassland nomadic people are also very popular. Most people in the Western Regions can speak these two languages, especially those who can speak Tang language are necessary in the upper class of the Western Regions.
After the two of them became polite, Liang Chongxin said straight to the point: "The Right General has just left for a while, and I have discussed some things with him."
The visitor's eyes shrank and he pondered: "Can Brother Liang tell me the content?"
"Of course, please come here to discuss this matter with Brother Huyan." Liang Chongxin laughed loudly.
After a pause, Liang Chongxin said carefully: "Hu Yandao and I have agreed to let your guards expand the organization of another 5,000 people and strengthen the strength of the guards. You can raise them in your court tomorrow, and he will not object."
When the big man heard this, he was shocked and happy, but he immediately calmed down and said, "Brother Liang, that old guy won't let go so easily. What conditions must he have?"
"Well, what do you think?" Liang Chongxin laughed. His relationship with this Han Dynasty was obviously unusual, and he had to speak more casually and relaxedly. "I promised him to support a batch of equipment to the National Defense Forces in the short term, including weapons and armor, and promised that the Guards would not be expanded within three years."
"Well, if there were five thousand additional people, the Guards would definitely not be able to expand within three years, and other ministers in the court would not agree. It's just that Brother Liang, you provide supplies to the National Defense Forces. "Although the great man was a bit embarrassed to speak up when he said this.
"Brother Hu Yan is too worried. This will not affect our support to the guards. You can rest assured about this." Liang Chongxin could not understand the other party's thoughts and immediately guaranteed.
"Then I'm relieved. Brother Liang, brother is a real person. I won't say much, but I will remember everything else in my heart. Hu Yanqiu is not an ungrateful person. Please rest assured about this. If there is any use to Hu Yanqiu, please speak as long as you want." Hu Yanqiu's face turned right, and he stood up and said loudly.
Liang Chongxin also stood up, and he controlled the other party's shoulders and expressed his sincere feelings, "Brother Huyan is so serious, Liang Chongxin is not a person who can give kindness and repay kindness. Although you and I are their own masters, Liang deeply feels that you and I have a good temper at first sight, and now they are standing on the same front, so they are destined to be on the same front. Liang sincerely hopes that he will always be a comrade in the same trench with Brother Huyan in the future and fight side by side." He stared at the other party deeply, but the last sentence was meaningful.
The man's whole body was also shocked, his eyes shone, and his face immediately showed a deep thought, but there was no more words, perhaps reminiscing about the meaning of Liang Chongxin's words.
Liang Chongxin didn't say much about this. He knew that the place would take some time to digest the meaning of his words, and said, "Brother Huyan, you probably have heard of our army's defeat in Luzon, Northwest. I plan to stabilize the situation here first after reporting to Lord Li, and then soon send troops to recover Luzon, Northwest. I also hope that you can help me. Of course, we will not ask you to send troops, but I hope you can work together with Huyandao during this period to prevent your neighbors from doing anything in the middle and affecting my military operations. I just told Huyandao this meaning."
"Oh, no matter whether you and I have a relationship, just because you and I are on the same boat, Hu Yanqiu will not be so ignorant of the general. Please rest assured that Brother Liang, Hu Yanqiu is definitely not such a ignorant person." Hu Yanqiu agreed.
"In addition, I would like to ask Brother Hu Yan to strengthen the training of the guards as soon as possible. Once the additional soldiers are in place, they must immediately start training and form combat effectiveness in the near future. After all, the power in your own hands is the most reliable thing, and relying on others will never last long." Liang Chongxin's sincere words moved Hu Yan Qiu very much.
"Brother Liang's kindness, Hu Yanqiu should remember it." The two hands were tightly held together.
Emilian walked around the hall anxiously. The scenery and excitement that had previously occupied Shuangdui City had long disappeared without a trace. No one expected that in just over a year, this once so tame-like place had become so difficult to control.
Not only are the residents of other ethnic groups in the urban area full of hostility, but even most Andeans seem to be indifferent to the entry of their own troops. There are even many Andeans who clearly propose that the consequences of the tearing down the agreement are not good for Luzon and Shuangdui. It is simply puzzling to say such remarks as fellow tribesmen.
