Chapter 104: Whether to send troops

A few days later, the royal city of Beiyue received an envoy from the prince of Nanyue, and as soon as they met, the envoy handed over a letter from the prince of Nanyue. At this time, Situ Zhan, the king of North Vietnam, fell ill again, and this time he was even more sick than last time! All the big and small matters in the city of the king of North Vietnam have been decided by Situ Feng.

Situ Feng looked at the letter of the prince of Nanyue, and the letter only said one thing, that is, to borrow troops! The conditions offered are also tempting!

Situ Feng ordered people to take the envoys of Nanyue to the post station to rest first, and he called Xu Jin, Han Quan and others to discuss. Situ Feng took the letter and said to everyone: "What is everyone's opinion? ”

Xu Jin took the lead and said: "I still think it's not easy for us to send troops to help!" One is that our troops are limited, and the great prince in the north is eyeing us, once we send troops, it will be useless if we have less, and if we have more troops, we will not have the troops to defend the royal city! Second, if we send troops, we will inevitably annoy the second prince of Nanyue, and now the situation in Nanyue is not clear! Let's not get involved! ”

As soon as Xu Jin finished speaking, Han Quan said: "I agree with Lord Xu's opinion, the eldest prince of Nanyue can borrow troops from everywhere, and the second prince can too." Moreover, the eldest prince of Nanyue borrowed troops from us, and he must have known that Situ Lin borrowed troops from Donglai Kingdom back then, and as a result, all the cities on the border were surrendered! Didn't get anything in exchange for anything? So I don't think that even if we borrow troops, the conditions promised by the prince of Nanyue will not be fulfilled! ”

Xu Jin and Han Quan's thoughts, in fact, Situ Feng also thought about them, and their doubts were also Situ Feng's doubts. So in the end, Situ Feng still very friendly and rejected the request of the prince of Nanyue.

"Lord, the envoy of the prince of Nanyue did not go back, but continued to go north! Do we need to stop him? A chamberlain told Situ Feng.

"To the north? Do you want to borrow troops from that big brother of mine? Situ Feng smiled and said, "Let him borrow it!" My big brother won't be stupid enough to lend him troops! However, if you are willing to borrow, that is the best! Order, no one should obstruct this envoy of the South Vietnamese State! ”

"Yes!"

A few days later, Situ Lin also received the envoy of the South Vietnamese state. Equally politely declined! It's just that Situ Lin sent this envoy to Donglai City in a big way, and also said to the envoy: "Don't worry, as long as the conditions you offer are good enough!" Donglai will definitely help you! ”

So the envoy went in the direction of the city of Dongrai.

"Why did you say that eldest brother of mine pushed that envoy to Donglai Kingdom?" Situ Feng once again called his advisers together.

This time, Han Quan was the first to speak: "The eldest prince's move is nothing more than to let the army of Donglai Kingdom deal with us!" ”

"Why?"

"The eldest prince is betting that we won't borrow the way!" Xu Jin said.

Situ Feng is not stupid, as soon as Xu Jin and Han Quan said this, he understood: "If we don't borrow the road, Donglai Kingdom will have a reason to attack us." Then the eldest prince can take advantage of the chaos to either recover those cities in the north, or take the opportunity to negotiate conditions with Donglai Kingdom, or talk to us about conditions, in short, Situ Lin will only benefit, not lose! ”

"Not bad! The eldest prince's move is very ruthless! Xu Jin said.

"Then what if we borrow the road!" Situ Feng said.

"Then there will be no reason for Donglai to attack us, but our entire rear will be completely exposed to the vision of the Donglai army!" Han Quan said.

"That's why Situ Lin bet that we wouldn't borrow the road!" Xu Jin said.

Situ Feng lowered his head and groaned, indeed, if he borrowed the road to Donglai Kingdom, Donglai Kingdom was likely to take the opportunity to attack the southern part of Beiyue Kingdom. The key defensive forces in the south are all on the southern border. From Wangcheng to the south, it is all a flat river, and there is no defense at all! Thinking of this, Situ Feng hesitated.

Most of the northern part of the Beiyue Kingdom was occupied by Situ Lin, and if the south was lost again, Situ Feng would only be left with the royal city. With an empty city under the attack of the north and the south, it is really impossible to say how long it can last.

Situ Feng, who originally had some confidence, was silent! If you don't handle it properly this time, you'll be in danger of yourself!

Just when Situ Feng was still hesitating, an attendant ran in in a panic and said inarticulately; "Lord Wang! The king ,......"

"What's wrong?" Situ Feng stood up and asked.

"The king, he's dead!" The chamberlain said with tears in his eyes.

Situ Feng was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Quick, this king wants to enter the palace!" ”

As he spoke, he headed outside!

The news of the death of the king of Beiyue and the envoys of the prince of Nanyue basically came to Donglai City at the same time.

After Situ Lin got the news of his father's death, his first reaction was to go back and guard his father's spirit! But all his subjects were trying to persuade him not to go back!

Situ Lin said: "My father passed away, how can I not go back, and if I don't go, my younger brother will not inherit the throne justifiably!" ”

"The prince doesn't have to be anxious, since the prince wants to go back to guard the king's spirit, you might as well order all the people to go back together! If there is any accident at that time, it is good to have a response! Xu Zhi said.

"It's good!" Situ Lin was in a hurry to go back, to a large extent, he was concerned about the ownership of the throne, after all, if he didn't go back to fight now, when Situ Feng's foundation was stable, it would be unjustifiable to want to fight for it at that time!

"Then gather your troops and horses and go with me!" Situ Lin said.

"Yes!" All the people in the big tent said in unison.

At this time in Donglai City, Tao Zijie met with the envoys of the prince of Nanyue, but due to the emergency situation in Beiyue, Tao Zijie did not give a positive answer to the envoys of Nanyue. Just told the envoy of the South Vietnamese State to wait for a reply.

Wen Bufan was talking to Orion, Murhajita, and Ouyang Fengbu in the main hall of the Donglai City Palace.

"Boss! At this time, the North and South Vietnam are in turmoil at the same time, which is a good time for us to send troops! We can take this opportunity to take the country of North and South Vietnam in one fell swoop! Orion said.

"Yes, it's an opportunity!" Ouyang Fengbu also said.

"We send troops, at most three months, and we can calm it down in one fell swoop!" Murhajita said.

Li Dakui also said with a smile: "We train all day long!" Finally, it's time to have a big fight! ”

At this time, Tao Zijie walked in!

Everyone looked at Tao Zijie with a serious face, and Li Dakui said with a smile: "Old Tao, why did you come?" We are discussing how to sweep through the North and South Vietnamese! ”

Tao Zijie ignored Li Dakui, and after saluting Wen Bufan, he said: "Your Majesty thinks that it is not appropriate to send troops at this time!" ”

As soon as Tao Zijie said this, everyone in the hall looked at Tao Zijie with a puzzled expression.

"Why did Master Tao say this?" Wen Bufan looked at Tao Zijie and asked.
