Chapter 431: Tsar Conditions
Chapter 431 Tsar's Conditions
Li Yun was stunned when he heard this.
He thought Wu Tian would have omissions, but judging from the current situation, Wu Tian not only did not have any omissions, but on the contrary, his defense was very strict. If he sent troops rashly, they would definitely lose themselves.
Just as he was thinking, Yelu Zhen, who was sent to the Tsar Kingdom, came back.
He bowed to Li Yun and said, "I met His Majesty the Tsar. His Majesty the Tsar gave me the answer, we must hold on here and hold Wu Tian, so that they can concentrate their troops to attack from the northern part of the desert, go straight to Liao, and cut off the return of Wu Tian's army."
Li Yun was happy, holding Yelu Zhen's hand, and said excitedly: "Brother Yelu, you have saved our Guzhu Kingdom this time. The Tsar Kingdom is willing to send troops to attack Liaodi, so Wu Tian will definitely lead his troops back to rescue him. At that time, we can win a great victory as long as we follow them from behind!"
Li Yun was so happy, but suddenly he realized something was wrong and stared at Yelu Zhen.
He saw the embarrassment in Yelu Zhen's eyes, and he seemed to have nothing to say.
"The Tsar sent troops so easily, there must be conditions, right?"
Li Yun seemed to have guessed something and asked Yelu Zhen in a low voice.
Yelu Zhen nodded and said, "The Tsar said that if they were asked to send troops, after victory, His Majesty must give them half of the territory in the northern part of the Western Regions as the cost of their troops this time. If they refuse, they will not send troops."
Hearing this, Li Yun's face turned dark.
It took him a long time to seize the northern part of the Western Regions and lost nearly 200,000 Guzhu people.
The Tsar sent troops to take away half of his land.
"This is too scattered!" Li Yun was very angry, "We had already agreed with the Tsar to join forces to deal with the Queen Wu Tian, and Liao land for them. We want the Xixia region and the Central Plains region. As long as the Tsar is willing, they have already occupied the remaining areas themselves. Now that the Liang Kingdom has not yet been destroyed, we should think about our land first. This is too scattered!"
The more Li Yun thought about it, the more uncomfortable he felt. He was now being put on by the Tsar. If he occupied Liang Kingdom in the future, the Tsar would not know what method he would use to plot against him!
Yelu Zhen was also very dissatisfied, but now no one can help them except the Tsar.
Yelu Zhen stepped forward and comforted Li Yun with a smile, "Your Majesty, things have reached this point. If we don't listen to the Tsar, our situation may be more dangerous."
Li Yun glanced at Yelu Zhen, became angry and shouted: "It's all you. If it weren't for you, why would I have fallen to this point!"
Yelu Zhen lowered his head and said nothing.
At the beginning, Li Yun occupied Guzhu Kingdom and originally wanted to be a little king and live a life of prosperity and prosperity from now on.
But Yelu was really familiar with the country of Guzhu and had known Li Yun, so he came to join him.
From the day he defected to him, Yelu Zhen encouraged Li Yun to dominate the Western Regions.
At the beginning, Li Yun firmly disagreed, but later, as Yelu Zhen instigated more and more, he began to be moved. The most important point was that the military strength of the countries in the Western Regions was indeed not that strong.
After occupying the northern part of the Western Regions, Yelu Zhen persuaded Li Yun to form an alliance with the Tsar in case he could use it in the future.
I didn't expect that all this has become a stumbling block for him now, forcing him to a dead end.
Yelu Zhen suppressed his anger and said to Li Yun with a smile: "Your Majesty, I know that this is all my fault. But now things are like this. Your Majesty should be relieved and don't think too much. As long as the Liang army is destroyed, are you still afraid of not having any land? Although we have lost half of the land in the north, we can take it back from the south. If we don't agree to the Tsar and they don't send troops, our final fate will be to be destroyed by Liang State. Once it is destroyed by Liang State, we will have nothing."
Li Yun turned dark. Now he was in a difficult situation, so he couldn't agree.
He pondered for a long time and said, "You go back and tell the Tsar that it is not impossible for him to want half of the land in the north, but I have to see him send troops and cut off the retreat of the Liang army. Only in this way can I believe that the Tsar is sincerely willing to cooperate with me."
Yelu Zhen nodded and bowed to Li Yun: "Don't worry, your Majesty, I will definitely bring this sentence to you."
After saying that, Yelu Zhen went out and rode his horse straight to the Tsar Kingdom.
...
In the country of the Tsar, the Tsar summoned his ministers to discuss matters.
"Now, a Liang Kingdom has appeared in the Central Plains. This country not only conquered China's land, but now marched into the Western Regions. If he took over the Western Regions, it would border our country's northwest and north north. The Liang Kingdom not only has strong military strength, but also has a prosperous economic development. There are at least two million permanent forces in the country. In addition, it can mobilize nearly ten million people. Moreover, they also have new firearms - red-clothed cannons and howitzers. These two things are very powerful. Even our army may not be able to withstand such powerful weapons."
Prime Minister Shi Ning spoke.
As soon as his words fell, Knight General Harry stood up to object.
"The Liang State has been annexed from a small country and destroyed surrounding countries through land, and has been growing stronger. Although his current territory is far less powerful than the Tsar, his military power and economy have made up for this. If we do not subdue him while we are still able to subdue this neighbor, he will attack us in the future. Our Far East is the most prosperous area of the Tsar, but this area is too close to the Liao territory of the Liang State. As long as they attack us across the border, they will soon be able to take down the land. And we do not have enough buffer zones and sufficient military power in the Far East."
"So while the main force of Liang is in the Western Regions, we can solve this problem as long as we occupy Liao territory. Not only that, we can also expand our land and approach the central area of Liang State - the Central Plains. As long as this land is under our surveillance, Liang State will be completely under our control. So I suggest that for the future of the Tsarist Kingdom, we will definitely exist in a battle with Liang State."
As soon as General Harry's words came to his mind, they immediately received recognition from many generals. They bowed to the Tsar and asked the Tsar to go to war immediately.
The Tsar waved his hand and said, "I agree with sending troops, but before sending troops, we must gain some benefits for ourselves."
As he was speaking, a soldier ran in and knelt in front of the Tsar.
"His Majesty the Tsar, Yelu Zhen is back, saying that there is something very important to ask to see you."
The Tsar smiled and shouted to the soldier: "Bring him in."
"yes!"
