Chapter 1085: Temptation to Profit (1st Update)
(Should have an affair with lonelinessβ₯ ask for today's three watches)
"Ladies and gentlemen, Dayuan's opponents are Da Ming and Xi Chagatai, if we take refuge in the past, we will definitely be reused."
Tahar knew that the Kansai generals were worried that Da Yuan would annex Kansai in the future, so he smiled slightly and comforted, "Da Yuan's Dehuan Taishi is extremely important to our Kansai Army, as long as we belong to Da Yuan, and when Da Yuan defeats Da Ming, then give us a piece of the pie in Jiangnan!" β
"Is that true?" As soon as Tahar's words fell, a high-ranking general from Kansai asked happily.
Not only the senior general, but also all the generals present showed excited looks, which made Timur smile bitterly and shook his head secretly.
A few years ago, the Kansai Army once took advantage of the Northern Yuan Dynasty to invade the Ming Dynasty, and was shocked by the prosperity of the Northern Zhili, and the south of the Yangtze River was the richest place in the Ming Dynasty.
Therefore, to this day, the generals of Kansai are still unforgettable about the prosperity and wealth of the Ming Dynasty, and if they can get a piece of the pie from Jiangnan, they will definitely make a lot of money.
"Commander Tahar, the south of the Ming Dynasty is the most prosperous place in the world, none of us have seen Master Tuhuan, could it be that someone wants to lure us in the name of Master Tuhuan?"
Just when everyone was secretly happy in their hearts, a voice sounded, and a gray-haired Kansai general frowned and said, he knew that the people of Beiyuan had always been untrustworthy, and if it wasn't for Tuohuan personally agreeing, there was a chance that this matter would be fake.
Hearing this, the Kansai generals at the scene couldn't help but look at Tahar again, in case this was a piece of cake drawn by the Northern Yuan for them, they would want to cry without tears at that time, obviously this kind of thing was done by the people of the Northern Yuan.
"Don't worry, the envoy of the Taishi of Tuhuan has already brought his warrant, and the official has already read it, and it is covered with the big seal of the Taishi of Tuhuan, and it is clearly stated that the seven counties in the south of the Yangtze River will be distributed to our Kansai Army!" Seeing this, the smile on Tahar's face became even stronger, and he shouted outside the door, "Please Dayuan Messenger!" β
"Great Yuan Envoy?" Hearing this, Timur and the others were taken aback, and looked at the door of the room, although the spies of the Northern Yuan had contacted them, but no one thought that there was a messenger of the Northern Yuan in Qinglong City.
Under the surprised gaze of everyone, Chaman walked in with a serious expression, tonight is an important moment to plot against the Kansai Army, so he will personally go into battle.
"Ladies and gentlemen, this official Chaman, the judge of the Dayuan Privy Council, this time I came to Qinglong City to appease your Guanxi Army on the order of Master Huan."
After stopping in front of the living room, Chaman took out an official document from his arms, held it up and said loudly, "This is a warrant issued by the Taishi of Tuhuan, to divide the seven counties in Jiangnan to your Kansai Army, and the tax of one county in a year is more than the tax in Kansai in a year!" β
"There are so many!" The Kansai generals in the room showed shocked expressions on their faces when they heard this, they never expected that a county in the south of the Ming River would be so rich.
"King Zhongyi, this is the warrant of the Taishi of Dehuan, please take a look." Satisfied with the reaction of the Kansai generals, Chaman walked up to Timur, who was looking at him, and quietly handed over the warrant.
Timur took it and looked at it, and then frowned and gave it to a senior general of the Kwanti Army beside him, so that everyone could circulate it one by one.
In this warrant, the Northern Yuan Taishi Tuhuan made it clear that he would hand over the seven counties in the south of the Yangtze River to the Guanxi Seven Guards, and as for how the Seven Guards of the Kansai were divided, it was an internal matter of the Kansai Army, and he would never interfere, with the signature of the Emperor and the big seal.
Although Tuhuan is only the Taishi of the Northern Yuan, everyone knows that he is the real ruler of the Northern Yuan, so since he agreed, it is equivalent to the Northern Yuan agreeing.
"Ladies and gentlemen, now that Master Dehuan's warrant is here, what else do you have to worry about?" Tahar glanced at the Kansai generals who were checking the leader, and said quietly in a loud voice, "In addition to Jiangnan, the rest of Daming is also quite rich, and as long as we have made enough military achievements, we can also obtain other territories, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!" β
In the face of Tahar's temptation, there was a commotion at the scene, and the generals of Kansai talked with each other, showing strong interest.
To be honest, if they can occupy a prosperous and rich place in Daming, they are naturally reluctant to blow the wind and sand in Kansai anymore.
"Ladies and gentlemen, this official has made an appointment with the commander of Tahar, tonight to send troops to seize the city gate, and let the army of Dayuan and Xichagatai outside the city enter the city, once this matter is successful, then you will be the great heroes of the capture of Qinglong City, and the Taishi of Tuhuan will definitely be rewarded." Seeing that the generals in Kansai were already moved, Chaman took the opportunity to open his mouth and tempt.
Hearing this, the room fell silent in an instant, and the generals looked at Chaman in surprise, although the bait thrown by Chaman was very tempting, but if they really wanted to fight against the Ming army, many people still had concerns in their hearts.
After all, the Ming army of Qinglong City is strong, and it has strengthened the defense of the city, once the battle is unpredictable, if the city gate fails, then it will be a disaster.
"Ladies and gentlemen, although the Ming army in the city is outnumbered, they must defend the four cities, so that the advantage of the Kansai army will be revealed, as long as you storm a city gate, it will definitely be captured."
Seeing this, Chaman realized that the generals of Kansai were afraid of the Ming army in the city, since Agu and the others left, there were only 70,000 left in the Kansai army, and the Ming army did have as many as 120,000, nearly twice the size of the Kansai army, so he comforted in a deep voice, "As long as the city gate is opened and the army of Dayuan and West Chagatai outside the city is allowed to come in, then Qinglong City is our world." β
"Ladies and gentlemen, it has now reached a life-and-death situation, if you don't do anything tonight, tomorrow the commander of the Seven Guards will be under house arrest by Daming, and everyone must know what to do."
Tahar knew that now was the critical moment, and as long as he worked harder, he could win over the generals in Kansai, so he said loudly, "This official has decided to do something tonight, if everyone is willing to follow this official to do it, everyone will sign an alliance agreement, if you don't want to do this official, you will not be reluctant, but you have to stay here for a while." β
The generals of Kansai glanced at each other when they heard this, and then looked at Tahar one after another, and now they had no way out except to take refuge in the Northern Yuan.
Takhar looked at Timur quietly, he knew that Timur and Hamiwei had always been close to the Ming Dynasty, so Timur's attitude was very important, not only related to the direction of the 20,000 Hami army, but also if they told the Ming army, they would have to give up their efforts.
The reason why Li Yuntian placed the Kwantan Army in the camp south of the city and the camp in the north of the city was to monitor and deter them, and once there was a dissent, he could transfer troops nearby to calm down, so this matter could not be known to the Ming army, otherwise the Kwantong army would fall into a bitter battle.
"Ladies and gentlemen, this king does not want to participate in this matter, and will act as if nothing has happened." Timur knew that Takhar wanted him to make a statement, so he stood up after a deep groan, and said with a serious expression, "I hope you will do it yourself." β
As he spoke, Timur walked towards the door, and the generals of Hamiwei immediately got up and followed.
"King Zhongyi, please stay!" Seeing that Timur was so faceless, Chaman's eyes suddenly flashed fiercely, and he gave Tahar a look to the side, signaling that he couldn't just let go of Timur, so Takhar opened his mouth and said to Timur, "For everyone's safety, please stay for the time being, and when the move is successful, the official will personally send the prince back." β
"This king has already said that he will not participate in this matter, and you don't need to worry that this king will leak it." Timur replied without looking back, knowing that Chaman wanted to put him under house arrest.
"King Zhongyi, you'd better listen to the advice of your own officials." Seeing that Timur had no intention of stopping, Takhar couldn't help but raise his voice, and then slapped him three times.
With the three applause, a group of heavily armed soldiers rushed into the door and surrounded the room.
"What, you want to put this king under house arrest?" Seeing this, Timur frowned slightly, turned to look at Takhar expressionlessly.
"Lord Wang, for the sake of everyone, this official has to do this." Takhar did not deny it, and said expressionlessly, "Come on, send the prince down to rest." β
Seeing this, several senior generals of the Kwanti Army who were standing beside Timur drew their swords to protect him and prevent the soldiers from approaching.
"King Zhongyi, this official advises you not to make unnecessary resistance, otherwise it will not be good for the sword and gun to reach you without eyes." Takhar smiled when he saw this, and reminded Timur that he had no way to escape.
"Lord Wang, you still obey the words of the Commander of Tahar, only he can save us in Kansai." Without waiting for Timur to speak, a senior general of the Kwantan Army in the room couldn't help but open his mouth to persuade.
"Lord Wang, Tahar's command is for the future of our Kansai, so you can be a little wronged for the time being." Immediately afterwards, another senior general of Kansai opened his mouth, and no one wanted to see the end of the cannibalism of the Kansai Seven Guards, which was a scene that the senior generals of the Seven Guards of the Kansai did not want to see.
"Thahar, you have to think about whether it's worth it." Seeing that the situation at the scene was a little tense, Timur knew that he couldn't leave, so he raised his right hand and motioned to the senior generals of Hami beside him to insert back their waist swords, staring at Takhar with a cold expression and asking.
"Lord Wang, this official has already thought it out very clearly, only by taking refuge in Dayuan and our Kansai Qiwei will have a way out." Hearing this, Takhar replied solemnly.
"I hope you'll be able to do it yourself." Since all the words had been said and done, Timur knew that Takhar had made up his mind to act tonight, so he glanced at the proud Takhar with a serious expression, and then beckoned the senior generals of the Kwantong Army to leave with the soldiers.
