Chapter 1073: Crazy Move
When the people of the Xiaowu Army and the Guanxi Army searched for a letter from Agu's house from the Northern Yuan Dynasty's Tuhuan Taishi to Agu, the generals in Kansai finally understood why Agu wrote a letter of allegiance.
In this letter, which was stamped with the seal of the Taishi of Tuhuan, Tuhuan gave Agu the area of Qinglong City and the southern part of Hamiwei, which was a great temptation for Agu.
Compared with the territory in the south of Hamiwei, Agu is more eager to get the Qinglong City, which is prosperous in commerce and trade, and whoever can own the Qinglong City will dominate Kansai in the future.
There is only one Qinglong City in Kansai, and Agu knows that the generals in Guanxi are full of interest in it, so in order to avoid others from reaching an agreement with Beiyuan to obtain Qinglong City, he decided to strike first, so he gave the letter of allegiance to Tuhuan.
The reason why Agu wanted to write a letter of loyalty to Tuhuan instead of being loyal to Adai Khan was because the generals in Guanxi knew very well that Tuhuan was the uncrowned king of the Northern Yuan Dynasty, and the ownership of Qinglong City was only counted by Tuhuan.
Since this letter from the Northern Yuan Dynasty was taken from Agu's house by the people of the Xiaowu Army and the Guanxi Army together after Agu's confession, no one doubts its authenticity, and it is an important evidence of Agu's defection to the enemy.
In the banquet hall, the generals of Kansai sat around the wine table and talked with each other, anxiously waiting for Li Yuntian's disposition of Agu's defection to the enemy.
As the saying goes, although Agu committed an unforgivable sin by defecting to the enemy, the generals of Kansai all felt inexplicably sad when they saw Agu and his people killed.
After Agu's accusation of defecting to the enemy was established, several high-ranking generals of the Chijin Mongolian Guard who came to the banquet with him were also controlled and interrogated.
In the midst of people's discussions, the two generals of the Kwanti Army were brought into the hall by several guards of the Xiaowu Army, and the scene fell silent when they saw this situation, and everyone's attention was focused on the Kansai general who walked in the front, he was the second person in the Chijin Mongolian Guard, and the commander of the Chijin Mongolian Guard, Gu Erhu.
"Gu Erhu, this king believes that you did not collude with the Northern Yuan, so this king now appoints you as the commander of the Chijin Mongolian Guard, I hope you will not live up to this king's expectations." Li Yuntian, who was talking with King Zhongyi, King Zhongshun, and the remaining five guards of the Kansai Seven Guards, saw Gu'er suddenly coming, and said to him in a deep voice.
According to the interrogation of Agu, Guerhu and others, Guerhu did not participate in this incident of collaborating with the enemy, so Li Yuntian wanted to use him to stabilize the Chijin Mongolian guards in the city, and at the same time to give an explanation to the Guanxi Qiwei, lest the Guanxi Qiwei think that he was going to take the opportunity to annex the Chijin Mongolian Guard.
Li Yuntian believes that Gu Erhu will not cooperate with the enemy, because Gu Erhu and Agu are the leaders of two different tribes of the Chijin Mongol Guard, and the two often fight openly and secretly for the power of the Chijin Mongol Guard, so Agu will not be stupid enough to pull Gu Erhu, and Gu Erhu will definitely report him for his own interests.
"The lower official has thanked the prince, and he will definitely live up to the prince's trust!" Gu Er was worried about how Li Yuntian would deal with him at this time, and suddenly heard that Li Yuntian had appointed him as the commander of the Chijin Mongolian Guard, and was stunned for a moment, and he didn't react for a while, and then he was overjoyed in his heart, and quickly knelt down to thank Li Yuntian.
Li Yuntian's decision also made the Kansai generals on the scene secretly breathe a sigh of relief, according to common sense, in order to ensure safety, Li Yuntian should detain all the generals of the Chijin Mongolian Guard, including Gu Erhu, and then swallow the Chijin Mongolian Guard, and let the government take over the affairs of the Chijin Mongolian Guard.
Li Yuntian's appointment of Gu Erhu as the commander of the Chijin Mongolian Guard was completely unexpected by those Kansai generals, but this also eliminated the nervousness of the Kansai generals, after all, Li Yuntian did not grasp the intention of making a big fuss about Agu's rebellion.
Otherwise, if Li Yuntian wanted this matter to repair the Kansai Qiwei, he could easily implicate those Kansai generals on the scene, and then take the opportunity to absorb the Kansai Army, which was what those Kansai generals were most worried about.
"King Zhongwu, how to deal with Agu and the others?" After Gu'er suddenly got up from the ground in a hurry, Timur opened his mouth and asked Li Yuntian in a deep voice.
When the Kansai generals heard this, they all looked at Li Yuntian, this was the thing that everyone was most concerned about, and they all wanted to know if Li Yuntian would kill because of this incident to set an example.
"Bring Agu up." Under the gaze of the Kansai generals, Li Yuntian muttered for a while and then commanded the guards in front of the door in a loud voice.
Soon after, Agu, who looked frightened and haggard, was escorted up by several guards, as if he had suddenly aged a lot.
"King Zhongwu spares his life, spares his life!" Agu knew that this was his last chance to live, and after coming to Li Yuntian, he quickly ran forward and knelt on the ground, kowtowing and begging for mercy.
"Agu, the crimes you have committed should be copied all over the house, but for the sake of your meritorious efforts in resisting the Northern Yuan over the years, this king will let you go."
Under the concerned gaze of everyone, Li Yuntian looked at Agu who kept kowtowing there with an expressionless face and said, "As the saying goes, a twisted melon is not sweet, since you have no intention of staying in Daming, then this king will not force it, and allow you to leave Qinglong City with your family and subordinates!" ”
Hearing this, the Kansai generals in the hall immediately looked at each other, with an unbelievable look on their faces, no one thought that Li Yuntian would not only let Agu go, but also let Agu leave with his subordinates.
King Zhongshun and King Zhongyi were also taken aback, and looked at Li Yuntian with a surprised expression, they didn't know how Li Yuntian was going to deal with Agu, and they were all taken aback by Li Yuntian's decision, Li Yuntian did not let the tiger return to the mountain, and strengthened the strength of the defenders outside the city in vain.
"Wang ...... Lord Wang, you ...... What you say is ...... But really...... It's true? Agu, who was kowtowing, couldn't help but freeze, his head went blank as soon as he buzzed, and he looked at Li Yuntian tentatively and asked.
"This king has always been true to his word!" Li Yuntian bowed slightly, and then waved his hand to the guards on the side, "Give him the letter." ”
The guards immediately stepped forward and handed over the letter written by the Northern Yuan Dynasty's Dehuan Taishi to Agu, which made Agu's heart suddenly excited, and it seemed that Li Yuntian really wanted to let him go.
"Do it yourself!" Li Yuntian glanced at Agu, who had a look of surprise on his face, said lightly, looked up at the Guanxi generals on the scene, and said solemnly, "This king knows, some people think that the Ming Dynasty will be defeated in Guanxi, and this king does not force it, if anyone wants to defect to the Northern Yuan or Timurid Empire, they can leave with the Agu commander, and this king allows you to bring your family and subordinates!" ”
"This king's ugly words are ahead, and from now on, this king does not want to have any more treason with the enemy, otherwise this king will behead the collaborators in accordance with the laws of the Ming Dynasty!"
As he spoke, Li Yuntian glanced coldly at the generals of the Seven Guards of the Guanxi Dynasty at the scene, and then his words changed, and he said in a resolute tone, "Before that, as long as the people who stay, then this king will treat them as brothers, life and death together, advance and retreat together!" ”
Li Yuntian's remarks once again stunned the generals of the Guanxi Seven Guards, and they all looked at each other in amazement, no one could have imagined that Li Yuntian would let others go, which was completely unimaginable.
"King Zhongwu, do you really plan to let people go?" Just when everyone was secretly speculating whether Li Yuntian's move was to lure out those who had two hearts in the Seven Guards of Kansai, a voice sounded in the crowd.
When everyone heard this, they immediately subconsciously turned their heads to look, only to see a burly general of the Western Regions looking at Li Yuntian expressionlessly, this person was Ah Duanwei commanding Tongzhi Manhei.
Seeing this situation, Commander Aduanwei made Saman's face change greatly, although they had private contacts with the Northern Yuan, but from the current situation in Kansai, it was difficult to determine who could win this war, so it was better to stay in Qinglong City at this time.
Besides, if this is a trap laid by Li Yuntian, then it is so dark that he will jump into the fire pit.
"This king will never break his word!" Li Yuntian glanced at the black and said with a serious expression.
"In that case, I want to get out of the city." Hearing this, Manhei groaned for a while, bowed to Li Yuntian, and said in a deep voice, "I hope the prince can fulfill his promise." ”
"Everyone has his own aspirations, and this king will never stop him." Li Yuntian looked at the black with a cold expression, "I hope you can do it yourself!" ”
After speaking, Li Yuntian walked out of the banquet hall, and the soldiers of the musket battalion scattered around retreated, leaving only the generals of the Kansai Seven Guards looking at each other.
Yun Na silently followed behind Lin Xin, her willow eyebrows frowned slightly, she didn't know what Li Yuntian thought in her heart, she actually wanted to let go of Agu's generals of the Kansai Army.
"Lord Wang, do you think King Zhongwu is really going to let Agu and them leave?" After Li Yuntian left, the generals of the Guanxi Seven Guards in the hall surrounded King Zhongyi and King Zhongshun with concern, and no one could figure out what medicine was sold in Li Yuntian's gourd.
"King Zhongwu has always been a man of words, but if King Zhongwu speaks this time, then he will definitely let people go."
Timur glanced at the generals of the Kwantan Army who were around, and said earnestly, "Everyone, this king will not say anything superfluous, and everyone must have a plan in their hearts, so as not to make a big mistake." ”
As he spoke, Timur made a gesture to the king of Zhongshun beside him, and the two left surrounded by the generals of Hamiwei, leaving only the generals of the Kwantai army staring at each other with wide eyes.
"Lord Wang, did you really just let Agu and the others go?" After leaving the banquet hall, Lin Xin asked Li Yuntian with some confusion on the way back to his residence, Li Yuntian's behavior today was indeed beyond people's expectations.
"Those Kansai generals who are in Cao Ying's heart and in Han are a huge hidden danger, rather than letting them stay in the city, it is better to let them go, so that the Kansai army who stay in the city can also feel at ease."
Li Yuntian smiled slightly when he heard this, and opened his mouth to warn Lin Xin, "Remember, killing is not the only way to solve things, we must choose strategies according to local conditions, what Qinglong City needs now is stability, and letting them go is our best choice at the moment." ”
"Lord Wang, do you think those Kansai generals who want to take refuge in the Northern Yuan Dynasty will take this opportunity to leave?" Lin Xin nodded, judging from the stability of Qinglong City, Li Yuntian's approach was undoubtedly the best, but she was worried that someone would continue to lurk in the city, and she couldn't help but show a worried look on her face.
"After the events of Agu, those who want to join the enemy will definitely want to leave, because they do not know whether the king has evidence of their collaboration with the enemy." Li Yuntian pondered for a moment and said slowly, "No matter what, we will definitely be able to clear some unstable factors in the Kansai Army, and it can be regarded as a great gain." ”
Lin Xin nodded when she heard this, thinking that Li Yuntian was reasonable, even if there were Guanxi generals who had defected to the enemy and chose to continue to stay in Qinglong City, then their strength would be reduced a lot, which would undoubtedly be a great benefit to the Ming army.
Yun Na's willow eyebrows frowned slightly, Li Yuntian's treatment of Agu and the others was an eye-opener for her, and at the same time, she also felt sorry for Agu and other Kansai generals who wanted to defect to the Northern Yuan Dynasty being forced by Li Yuntian to leave Qinglong City, and it would be more difficult for the spies of the Northern Yuan Dynasty to make trouble in the city in the future.
