"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!" Everyone immediately kowtowed and saluted.
"Everyone loves you!" Emperor Guangxiao asked everyone to stand up, and when they got up, they all looked at Emperor Guangxiao, not understanding what it was to call everyone over at this time.
"There is news from the southern border that the Southern Tang Dynasty sent 100,000 troops to our southern border."
Emperor Guangxiao told everyone about the situation.
"Why is this?"
Some people asked inexplicably, they have been living in peace with Nantang all these years, why did Nantang suddenly send troops.
"The reason is that my Great Zhou is bullying the weak. He Nan Tang wants to uphold justice. Now Nan Tang has issued a document calling for the world's benevolent and righteous teachers to crusade against my Great Zhou."
Emperor Guangxiao told the reason.
It's still Xiyi's problem.
"I have received news that not only the Southern Tang, but also the Southern Liang, Southern Chu, and Northern Wei are all ready to move." Emperor Guangxiao added.
After listening to Emperor Guangxiao's words, everyone fell silent.
"Don't you dear ministers have any opinions on this matter?"
Emperor Guangxiao asked everyone.
"The emperor's humble minister still said the same thing, I hope His Royal Highness can return to the court in class, and we give up Xiyi, so that the countries will have no reason to target me Da Zhou."
Bai Jizhong stood up and said, he said this a few days ago, and now it really happened.
"Your Majesty, I also advocate my own proposal. Don't withdraw troops, don't compromise, and don't bow your head. This is the bottom line of my Da Zhou's external affairs. This matter must not be changed."
Bao Ying said seriously
If they don't withdraw their troops, they cannot withdraw their troops from Xiyi. If they withdraw their troops at this time, all their efforts will be in vain. They are bound to win Xiyi and cannot be shaken in any way.
? If you have made up your mind to do it, if you give up halfway, it is not good.
If we withdraw our troops at this time, then we may never have such a good opportunity in the future.
And if they withdraw their troops, won't they be targeted?
This matter is not something that can be solved by withdrawing troops. Bai Jizhong's thinking on this matter is too simple. Since Southern Tang wants to target their Great Zhou, and wants to suppress their Great Zhou.
Even if they withdraw their troops, Nan Tang will still have a reason.
Do not compromise, do not bow their heads, this is the attitude towards the six countries, they and Xiyi are their own business, and they will never allow other countries to dictate their own affairs.
Their proposals to other countries can never be compromised, and non-compromise is the most basic diplomacy.
Once a compromise is made, they will lose their sovereignty, and they will lose their ego. In the future, no matter who they are, they will want to suppress Da Zhou and manipulate Da Zhou. It is difficult for them to compromise.
This step cannot be taken out, once it is taken out, it is really impossible to come back.
They want to be strong, and they want to express their position. In this matter, Da Zhou must have his own momentum.
Moreover, Southern Tang only sent troops to the southern border, but did not send troops to invade, so this matter is very likely that Southern Tang was bluffing.
They can't see the wind and rain, and they can't be afraid when they see other people's soldiers and horses. At worst, they are fighting a war with Nantang.
The land of the southern border is where the elite of their Great Zhou is.
"No withdrawal, no compromise, no bow?"
Emperor Guangxiao listened to Bao Ying's six words. These words really expressed the integrity of Da Zhou, and Da Zhou should be like this.
"What do you think, Xiangguo?"
Emperor Guangxiao asked Yu Shilin.
"Your Majesty, I agree with Lord Bao's words. The western barbarians are bound to win our Great Zhou. The other countries in the Southern Tang Alliance put pressure on our Great Zhou. It is not because the world is public, it is not because our Great Zhou is bullying the weak, but because they are afraid. .¡±
Yu Shilin said.
"Fear?"
All civil and military officials looked at Yu Shilin, who was very keen to see problems.
"That's right, I'm afraid. If my Great Zhou gains the land of the Western Yi, we will be able to use the Western Yi as our foundation, point our sword at the six kingdoms, advance and attack the territories of the six kingdoms, and retreat to defend the land of the Western Yi. Our Great Zhou can stand on invincible position."
Yu Shilin said that Nan Tang wanted to stop them because he saw this.
They cannot give up Xiyi because of the pressure from Nantang.
As long as they take down Xiyi, the threat of Southern Tang will be easily resolved.
After Yu Shilin finished speaking, he took a step back and waited for Emperor Guangxiao's reply.
Emperor Guangxiao looked at the faceEveryone in the front said, "Let me think twice about this matter!" Emperor Guangxiao did not give a direct answer, and Emperor Guangxiao began to hesitate about this matter.
He couldn't help but hesitate, he was the emperor, he had to think about it carefully.
He didn't support Zhou Heng's sending troops to Xiyi, because the consumption was too high, and now there were not only internal problems, but also external problems.
With this internal and external addition, Emperor Guangxiao felt oppressed
? Southern Chu Grand Master's Mansion.
"Grand Master, the envoys of the Southern Tang Dynasty seek to see you!" The steward of the Grand Master's Mansion came from the front hall to the back garden, walked to the gazebo, took a step forward, and whispered.
Fang Zhongyong gently put down the fishing rod in his hand, slightly raised his eyes to look at the butler beside him.
"An envoy from the Southern Tang Dynasty?" Fang Zhongyong asked.
"That's right."
The butler nodded in response.
"Can't Nan Tang sit still?" Fang Zhongyong said with a smile, Nan Tang knew the situation of Dazhou, and he, Nan Chu, also knew, but Fang Zhongyong was not in a hurry.
"Did you see or not?"
asked the butler.
"I'm a guest from afar, since I'm here, let's meet up, I can't take advantage of others." Fang Zhongyong said leisurely.
The butler left the garden after listening to Fang Zhongyong's words, and walked in with a person after a while. The person who followed the butler was wearing a light blue robe and was about forty years old.
From the clothes, he looks like a scholar.
"Teacher, people are coming!"
The housekeeper stepped forward to report that Fang Zhongyong didn't reply, as if he didn't hear him, and the housekeeper immediately understood Fang Zhongyong's meaning, he didn't speak, but stood quietly aside.
"Ding Zhao, the envoy of the Southern Tang Dynasty, paid homage to the Grand Master!" Ding Zhao stepped forward to pay respects, but Fang Zhongyong still did not respond.
"Ding Zhao, the envoy of the Southern Tang Dynasty, paid a visit to the Grand Master!"
Ding Zhao said it a total of five or six times before Fang Zhongyong slowly looked at Ding Zhao.
"The fish are gone!"
Fang Zhongyong said a little discouraged, Ding Zhao glanced at the fishing rod in front of Fang Zhongyong, Ding Zhao knew that Fang Zhongyong definitely did it on purpose.
"Are you an envoy from the Southern Tang Dynasty?"
"That's right."
Ding Zhao replied.
"Nantang and Nanchu should be fine. What's the matter with you coming to my grand master's mansion?" Fang Zhongyong looked at Ding Zhao and asked.
"Reporting to the grand master, I wrote a letter from the Southern Tang Dynasty to tell the world that I hope that the benevolent and righteous divisions in the world will join forces to attack the Great Zhou! The Great Zhou is bullying the weak, and the people are dying. I, the Southern Tang Dynasty, are willing to do justice for the sky. I hope that the Southern Chu can help."
Ding Zhao explained his reason for coming.
Listening to Ding Zhao's words, Fang Zhongyong frowned.
"Write a book to announce to the world? Does Southern Tang regard itself as the master of the world?" Fang Zhongyong asked in a low voice, Southern Tang was too defiant and domineering.
When asking for help, he still looks condescending. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
