Zhang Hao's persuasion moved Ye Chang, but even so, Ye Chang still said solemnly: "For the sake of Mr. Zhang, I will spare him this time until he is convinced Does that matter? If he is not convinced, then "Cut his head off." Following his words, Sun Kezhe's scolding stopped abruptly, and then the sergeant brought up Sun Kezhe's bloody head on a tray. Ye Chang waved his hand, and the sergeant sent the head to the two deputy envoys. The two deputy envoys were now pale-faced. They took Sun Kezhe's head back to their own army, and Di Lie immediately met them. , after hearing what happened, he couldn't help but became furious: "Tang Gou insulted me too much Come, gather the generals, and fight to the death with Tang Gou." Gong Fu hurriedly stopped him: "No, no, the failure of laziness is recklessness. Di Liehan must take a lesson from him." After hearing his reminder, Di Lie suddenly realized: "What you said is true. Tang Gou did this intentionally to make me angry." However, he frowned again immediately, even though he knew he was from Tang Dynasty. What can he do to anger him? Unless he is really prepared for a full-scale conflict with the Tang army, otherwise, he must swallow this breath. "No matter the day or night, Di Liehan, our first priority is still to find out the truth of the Tang people. Although Sun Kezhe's death was a deliberate plan by the Tang people to provoke us, it was also due to our lack of thinking. Sun Kezhe himself also committed suicide. It's better to send another person as envoy." Di Lie hesitated for a while. He is not stupid. The Tang people first defeated Sala and were defeated neatly, which proved that the Tang people were extremely powerful in combat. Then they killed his envoy decisively, which proved that the Tang people did not take him seriously at all. The more arrogant the Tang people were, the more worried he felt. After all, the total number of Khitan people at this time was less than 200,000, which was really far behind the Tang Empire with a population of tens of millions. "That's all we have to do Who will be sent as the envoy this time?" "Yun Deshi is an honest and down-to-earth person. It is said that when he was in Liucheng, even An Lushan praised him many times. Why not ask Yun Deshi to go." Suke suggested. Like Sun Kezhe, Yun Deshi once served for An Lushan in Liucheng and later returned to the tribe. This person is one of the few figures among the Khitan people who can calculate. Therefore, Di Lie takes him as his master. Although he is not Di Lie's right-hand man, he is also one of the few useful figures in his hands. After listening to Gong Fu's recommendation of Yun Deshi, Di Lie thought for a while and felt that this person was worthy of use, so he nodded and said: "Okay, let's call Yun Deshi here." This time they gave Yun Deshi an explanation to find out whether the Tang army was true or not. Lord, don't be arrogant, even if you are humble, it doesn't hurt. After receiving their instructions, Yun Deshi was somewhat reluctant, but he still led the deputy envoy to go: "The Khitan envoy is here again?" At this time, the Tang army was still stationed thirty miles away from Jian'an Prefecture, and he heard that the Khitan envoy was coming again. , Ye Chang smiled: "Xi Mou Ding, I have to help you again If it weren't for that Gong Fu, I'm afraid I'd really have to beat you this time." "I know, I can't blame Sima for this," Ye Chang said with a sigh. I can only blame the Khitan people." Everyone laughed. After a while, Xiong Mouding led the envoy in, and his face looked a little strange: "Report to Sima, the Khitan envoy Yun Deshi is leading the way." It's not Gong Fu, Zhang Hao. Wang Changling and Wang Changling looked at Qianmuding with some sympathy, and Qianmuding grinned. Na Yun Deshi actually learned a lesson from Sun Kezhe. After recognizing Ye Chang, he bowed down and saluted: "Young man Yun Deshi, I would like to pay my respects to Sima and ask him about his safety." "Get up, you are better than that Sun Kezhe." "Your ancestors were not treacherous officials and traitors, right?" "I have been loyal to you for generations, and you are definitely not treacherous officials and traitors." Yun Deshi bowed his head and said, "It's just that your ancestors did not serve in the Tang Dynasty, so their reputation is not obvious." What do you mean?" Ye Chang said. "The villain is here this time to greet the Heavenly Army of the Tang Dynasty and to ask Sima if there is any need for my Khitan help." Yun Deshi said cautiously: "Here is a letter from Dilie Khan of the villain, please "Submit it before Sima's case." He handed over the letter, and Xiong Mouding took it and passed it to Ye Chang. Ye Chang opened it, looked at it, and handed it to Zhang Hao. "This letter was written by Gong Wei, so he was humble and shameless." , flattering constantly, saying that the Khitan people's eastward invasion was "due to famine in the pine desert, they had to go eastward", and briefly mentioned their occupation of several states in Liaodong, mainly to sue Anlu Mountain, and asked Ye Chang to turn over the report. Emperor Tang. Ye Chang knew very well that even if he replayed this letter, it would be of no use. In fact, when Shi Shanzhi led his people to explore the road to the Bohai County, they passed through Songmo, and the Khitan's Zuwu Khan gave him a grand reception. During this period, he also asked Shanzhi to forward a letter to the local official of Hebei Province in the Tang Dynasty. Then he played Li Longji again, and it was like suing An Lushan. But at this time, Li Longji needed Anlu Mountain, and Li Linfu also needed Anlu Mountain. Therefore, Anlu Mountain's position was stable and impossible to shake. Zhang Hao saw the sentence "Take Poli City to eat" and his heart moved slightly: "Where is this Poli City?" Ye Chang stretched out his hand and said: "Here comes the map" and someone hung the map in front of his tent. , and soon saw the city of Pali. It turned out that the city of Pali was the city of Gaogu.People called it Wuli City, and the Sui Dynasty took it and renamed it Tongding Town. After the Sui Dynasty, it was acquired by Goguryeo. It was recovered by Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty when he conquered Goguryeo and was renamed Poli City. Seeing this on the map, Ye Chang suddenly roared: "How dare you bully me, pigs, dogs, shepherds, slaves?" Hearing Ye Chang's anger, Yun Shide's heart jumped. Without waiting for Ye Chang's order, he knelt down and kowtowed: "The villain is just here under orders. I really didn't mean to deceive Sima. Please forgive me." "You dare to say that you didn't mean to deceive me?" Ye Chang pointed to Polly City on the map: "Do you know where this place is?" ?¡± ¡°Where is this? Isn¡¯t itPolly City?¡± ¡°Do you know the military position I was assigned when I first came to Liaodong?¡± Ye Changlai did. At the beginning of the Liaodong period, the military post assigned to him was to be the governor of Xiangping. He trembled: "XiangXiangping guards the capture envoy" "The shepherd slaves really deceived me." Ye Chang roared: "Xiangping guards the capture envoy's administration office, which is in Poli City, and the Khitan pigs and dogs take advantage of it. If you have food in the city, then where can I go to eat? " This is just nitpicking. Yun Shide was so panicked that he was about to defend himself, but Ye Chang didn't give him this chance at all. He waved his hand and ordered: "Drag him out. , cut it off." Yun Shide yelled twice before his mouth was gagged with a rag and dragged out directly. The two deputy envoys looked at each other, and now they had to take the head of the envoy back with them. But immediately afterwards, Ye Chang scolded Xiong Mouding again, and ordered him to be dragged out and beaten with twenty sticks. Hearing Xiong Mouding's screams outside, the two deputy envoys lowered their heads and thought to themselves: No wonder he killed two envoys in succession. This young official from the Tang Dynasty had a violent temper and was really not a good person to serve. After returning this time, they will no longer be able to serve as deputy envoys. In the first two times, they only killed the chief envoys. They were lucky enough to go back alive. Next time, they might kill the deputy envoys as well. Just when he thought like this, he heard Ye Chang say: "Originally, I should have chopped you two down together, but because no one responded, I left you two dead and took the heads, so why not hurry up and get out." The two of them seemed to have received amnesty. He walked away in embarrassment and returned to his camp. Di Lie was furious again: "How dare this Han dog do this? Gong Fu, you always said that you would send people to find out the truth. What do you think should be done now?" Gong Fu also He was speechless and full of doubts in his heart. How could he meet a Tang official who did not act according to common sense? In his impression, some Tang officials were greedy and violent, but not like this. When things go wrong, there must be monsters. Could it be that the Tang officials were just bluffing? ? Thinking of this, Gong Fu felt suddenly cheerful. If he used bluff to explain the various measures of the Tang coach, then all the problems would be easily solved. He was thinking about this matter in his mind, and became a little absent-minded. Di Lie asked twice, but when he saw that he still didn't speak, he suddenly felt angry: "Gong Fu, what are you thinking about?" Gong Fu heard him yell, this Then he came back to his senses: "The villain is thinking, are the Han people bluffing? "A bluff? " "Yes, he killed my envoys one after another and looked very ferocious. In fact was he trying to cover up his lack of strength so that I could only be frightened and asked for peace? " When Di Lie heard this, his head felt as big as a bucket. It was really difficult to guess the thoughts of the Han people. He didn't say anything. Another Khitan man in the tent couldn't stand it anymore. He said in a strange way: "Well said, the Tang people are too powerful to compete with. In the war, it was you who wanted to sue for peace, and it was you who called the Tang people's bluff to scare me into asking for peace Gong Fu, what exactly are you planning? " Gong Fu smiled bitterly and said: "It's not that I am contradicting myself, but the information I have about the Tang people is very different from their performance It would be great if we could see through the reality of the Tang people and know whether he wants war or peace We still need to send an envoy." "You still need to send one? " Di Lie and the two deputy envoys lost their voices at the same time. The two deputy envoys were scared this time and stepped forward to beg: " Di Lie Khan, even if you send envoys, we are not willing to be deputy envoys anymore. Sima from the Tang Dynasty said that he will chop off my two heads next time." The two of them knelt down and cried and begged. Dilie's head was a little messy and he looked around: "Who should I send? The Khitan people who spoke Chinese looked at each other in confusion. It was obvious that the envoy held a high-risk position, and the risk was too great for ordinary people to bear. At this time, Gong Fu hesitated and said: "Recommend someone." Before he finished speaking, those Khitan people who spoke Chinese started shouting: "We also want to recommend someone." Hearing this, Gong Fu felt something in his heart. Jump, Di Lie ignored him over there, but looked at his fellow tribesmen: "Who do you want to recommend?" "If you want to recommend Gong to join the army, he is the most suitable." Gong Fu suddenly turned pale, pointed to his nose and said, "I How can I succeed?" "If you fail, don't make random recommendations and let us die," the Khitan people shouted. "Exactly, you recommended Sun Kezhe, but only his head came back to Sun Kezhe. You recommended Yun Shide, but only his head came back to Yun Shide."?¡± ¡°If we talk about other things, such as loyalty and bravery, you are nothing but shit, but when it comes to knowing Chinese and knowing Chinese, you are better than all of us put together. If you don¡¯t go, who will go?¡± ¡°Go and rest, go and rest¡± Gong Fu It can be said that he offended the public. Originally, he was a Goguryeo, and he was favored by Di Lie just because of his flattery. Although everyone looked down upon him, they would not treat him like this. However, he even recommended two people to the Tang army. If his life is lost, how can everyone rely on him? "I can't go, Dilie Khan. If I go and be killed by the Han people, who will make plans for Dilie Khan, and who will help Dilie Khan win over the various ethnic groups in Liaodong?" " "Those things can only be done by individuals, so just go ahead and go with it" "The Han people have an idiom, what is it called, everyone everyone is talking about turtles? " "Why do all the people talk about turtles? It's what everyone expects." In the midst of the noise, Gong Fu looked at Di Lie as if asking for help, but the Khitan people were making such a fuss. Di Lie knew in his heart that if Gong Fu didn't go, the Khitan people wouldn't do it. He was a little embarrassed. Although Gongfu was not brave, he began to join him after the Khitans entered Liaodong. He traveled around the country for more than six months and made many achievements. He was a staunch supporter of Zuwu Khan. He heard that Zuwu Khan said that if the Khitan wanted to develop, they must jump out of the Songmo Desert and enter Liaodong, and Gongfu would be very important to them in governing Liaodong. But no matter how big it was, it would not be bigger than the Khitan tribe itself. "That's all, if you don't send people, let's fight this war with the Han people." After thinking about it, Di Lie sighed, "No, we don't know the enemy's strength and strength, how to fight against it, now we only know that the Han people are just trying to gain profits. It makes no sense to say that Ye Chang, the Sima of the state, knows nothing about the Tang army. But it is absolutely true to know the reality of the Tang army. Sala has defeated two thousand of our heroes. It is really our Khitan tribe that can fight. There are only a few thousand people, so we can¡¯t send them here.¡± ¡°That¡¯s right, let Gong Fu go.¡± ¡°Dilie Khan, you are the Khan of our Die La tribe, so you can¡¯t be too biased toward outsiders.¡± Di Lie wants to keep Gong Fu. , but the dead Sun Kezhe and Xi Shide had no relatives and friends. They hated Gong Fu for his trick to kill Sun Kezhe and Xi Shide, so they were not willing to let it go. Under their leadership, the other leaders of the Die La tribe also spoke out one after another. . These people are not as discerning as Di Lie and others. What they think is that Di Lie's heavy use of bows has allowed a Khitan to climb above their heads. This trend will not last long. At this time, the Khitan has not yet established a real political power. The so-called Khan's resistance to Wu is just in vain. Each ministry has its own khan, and the leaders under each ministry also have great power. Dilie can suppress these people with his own prestige, but the price is high. Too big. Although he values ??Gong Fu, he is not willing to pay such a price for Gong Fu. Backup, if that person from Tang Dynasty dares to be rude to you, I will kill him to avenge you." Gong Fu's expression was no different from that of Tu at this moment. Although Di Lie said he wanted to avenge him, but for him who lost his head , What¡¯s the point of revenge? But now that Di Lie has said this, it¡¯s not up to him whether he wants to go or not. Thinking of his identity, Gong Fu thought for a while, maybe the fact that he is not a Khitan can help him survive. .
