    Dou Jiande said coldly: "If that's the case, why didn't Yang Xuangan go to relieve the siege of Luoyang, but instead had a conflict with Du Fuwei? You know, the day before yesterday, he forced Du Fuwei to withdraw from Jiangdu, which attracted Du Fu  Wei was furious and raised troops to attack Pengcheng, but Yang Xuangan set up an ambush and was defeated, killing more than 30,000 people. " "After Du Fuwei's defeat, he abandoned Jiangdu and retreated to Liyang, which was equivalent to giving up Jiangbei.  Give it to Yang Xuangan. Now that Yang Xuangan has the land of Huaihe River, he obviously wants to stand on his own, not to save the prince." Changsun Anshi shook his head: "That is just Marshal Yang's move to establish his power, it does not mean that he wants to.  He became self-reliant. He did have a conflict with His Majesty because of Li Mi's matter. In this matter, My Majesty broke the contract first, which was considered a mistake. Therefore, even if Marshal Yang ran away in anger, he did not stop him, but Marshal Yang knew very well that once our Majesty  If Li Tang really eliminates him, then he will be the next one. Li Yuan is ruthless and will never let him go just because he and Yang Xuangan are both from aristocratic families. If all those who compete with Li Tang fail, there will be only one outcome.  , that is death." Dou Jiande sneered: "Then why didn't Yang Xuangan save Luoyang himself, but asked you to come to me?" Changsun Anshi smiled slightly: "Because there will be no problem with Luoyang's defense, Dongdu is the world.  Even Li Shimin couldn't break through the tall city wall, let alone the Holy Lord himself guarding it. Yang Xuangan had suffered heavy losses under Luoyang City back then and knew how strong the city was, so he was not worried.  The only thing Li Shimin has to worry about when he attacks the city is Dongdu's food and fodder. " "But my Lord has already prepared sufficient food and fodder in Dongdu, which can last for half a year. In other words, within this six months, Dongdu's defense will be useless.  Yu, His Royal Highness the King of Xia, Yang Xuangan said personally when sending this envoy north this time that he would need half a year to recruit troops in the Huaihe and Huaihe areas to accommodate the defeated troops of Li Zitong and Shen Faxing. These people are also veterans of the war for many years.  , elite soldiers, recruited and trained a little, they will be sharp soldiers and tigers, so he needs to spend more than half a year to train the troops, and during this half year, he hopes that King Xia can send troops to the east capital. At that time, the Holy Lord, Marshal Yang and the king will attack in three directions  , I will definitely defeat Li Tang. This kindness will never be forgotten by my family!" Pei Shiju suddenly laughed: "Ambassador Changsun, did the prince teach you this, or did Wei Zheng teach you this?  The matter of taking chestnuts out of the fire for others is an understatement and effortless for you." Changsun Anshi's mouth curled up: "This is not about taking chestnuts out of the fire, but the lips are dying and the teeth are cold. Li Tang now owns most of the Central Plains.  Only a few passes and fortresses such as Hulao and Huazhou are still in the hands of our Huaqiang country. Once Luoyang falls, the Central Plains will belong to Li Tang. By then, Li Tang's unification of the world will be unstoppable. Our Huaqiang country  It's over. Can the king's Xia Kingdom survive alone?" Dou Jiande said coldly: "Pei Shangshu is right, there are always benefits to fighting. The prince and the orphan are just like passers-by, even if the orphan is dead because of this.  To send troops to help, you will have to directly become an enemy of Li Tang, the most powerful person in the world. Not only will you lose troops, but you will also have to add a powerful opponent. This cannot be dismissed with just a few words of yours.  When an army goes on an expedition, it consumes money and food. The soldiers who died in the battle have to be compensated, and the injured sergeants have to be resettled. Even if I save the prince, what benefits will I get?  " The eldest grandson Anshi said with a smile: "The King of Xia was extremely righteous and generous. No one in the world knew about it. Everyone in the world was forced to survive by the tyranny of the Sui Dynasty. Only then did they rebel against the Sui Dynasty. It can be said that including Li  Including the Tang Dynasty, they were all rebels who formed an alliance against the Sui Dynasty. Since they joined forces to overthrow the Sui Dynasty, why should they kill each other?  " Dou Jiande sneered: "Revolt against the Sui Dynasty?  I'm afraid your prince can't live up to this reputation. He was the last loyal minister of the Sui Dynasty. He wiped out millions of rebels from all walks of life. If it weren't for my uprising in Hebei, he never sent him to Hebei. He was just afraid of me as an ally.  , they should have been wiped out by him long ago.  " Changsun Anshi shook his head: "In troubled times, everyone gets what they need, including Li Mi. My lord didn't want to destroy him at first, but wanted to support the bandits to respect themselves and divide the Central Plains equally with him. However, Li Mi wanted to  He dominated the world and attacked Dongdu several times. My lord had no choice but to fall out with him and fight him. Even so, in the end, he left a thorn in the side and let him enter the pass. As for Li Mi, who later betrayed the Tang Dynasty and left the pass, he died in an ambush by my lord.  , that is his own fault, and my lord has no way of feeling sorry for him.  " "Actually, what I just said is not a strong argument, but my lord-in-law said that we all started against the Sui Dynasty, and it is not easy for us to have today's foundation. Each of us can protect the environment and the people, and calm down this troubled world, which is the best result.  As for what will happen in the future, we can leave it to our children and grandchildren to solve the problem. There is no need to fight, kill, and start war again.  " "Now Li Tang is besieging Dongdu because he wants to break the balance of the world. Once?They got the Central Plains, and there was no power that could restrain them.  " "King of Xia, it will take time for Yang Xuangan to recruit troops in the Huaihe River, and Li Jing also needs to appease Xiao Liang's hometown in the south. Neither of them is able to rescue the eastern capital immediately. Besides, they are all generals of Huaqiang State in name, not kings, and they lack the ability to speak.  Only you, the King of Xia, have the weight. You are so powerful that even Li Tang is afraid of you.  " "As long as you speak, be polite first and then send troops, and let Li and Tang's troops return to Guanzhong, otherwise you will send out righteous troops to attack. I believe that people all over the world will be grateful to you, King Xia, for your generous helping hand.  " Dou Jiande laughed and said, "It's all talk, but words don't always come true.  Ambassador Changsun, are you asking us, Daxia, to send troops to save your lord from the fire with just a few words of praise?  I, Dou Jiande, am loyal, but it is impossible for my subordinates to shed their blood and sacrifice in vain.  " Changsun Anshi gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice: "If King Xia must gain actual benefits, then my sage has also said that it is not impossible to talk. If you can really send troops, then the land of Qilu and the Yellow River  The seven prefectures and counties in Nan'an, Weizhou, and Huazhou were given to King Xia as a thank-you gift.  In addition, if Daxia sends troops, all the spoils and prisoners of the Tang army will be given to Daxia as compensation!  " Dou Jiande's lips curled up and he said: "Ambassador Changsun, please come back first. I will discuss this matter with the ministers before making a decision!  "
