Chapter 615 This chapter is unlucky.
Chapter 615 This chapter is unlucky.
Ma Zhao, Wu Qiong and others also agreed with Sang Buzhi's opinion.
Gongsun Shangfei had been stationed in Xiqiang for several years, but he eventually became disloyal and tried to rebel. Fortunately, Ye Kun's troops had received loyalty education and were unwilling to follow Gongsun Shangfei. Gongsun Shangfei was also forced to give up his military power and confessed his guilt to Ye Kun.
Xiahou Jun's life experience is similar to that of Gongsun Shangfei.
It is inevitable that they feel resentful because Ye Kun took away their father's foundation.
Moreover, the Indian Peninsula is farther away from the Nine Provinces of China. Once Xiahou Jun has a large army, he will definitely develop ambitions.
What's even more terrifying is that if Liu Ai and Xiahou Jun join forces...
Faced with the opposition from Sang Buyi and others, Liu Ai was helpless. He looked at Ye Kun and waited for an answer.
Ye Kun smiled and said, "Xiahou Jun is still in Yanran New City, working with He Zhongshu to clear out the remnants of the Xiongnu on the grassland and build a new city. Even if he is transferred back, he will have to wait until next spring when the flowers bloom.
Sir Liu, what I mean is that you should go to the Tianzhu Peninsula immediately and not wait until next year."
It is winter now, and the roads in Yanran New City have been blocked by heavy snow.
It is indeed not a good idea to let Xiahou Jun come back at this time.
But there was no problem at all for Liu Ai to go to Tianzhu.
Because the further south you go, the warmer the weather becomes. If you arrive in the southern part of the Tianzhu Peninsula at the end of the year, you can even go swimming in the river.
Liu Ai nodded and asked, "Then can Xiahou Jun be sent to the Tianzhu Peninsula next spring?"
"I will transfer this person back in April next year." Ye Kun nodded and said with a smile: "Master Liu, why do you have to bring Xiahou Jun with you?"
"It's just because I worked with Xiahou Jun in Liaodong, and we had a good understanding and were considered a good partner."
"If I don't agree with your suggestion and don't allow Xiahou Jun to go to Tianzhu Peninsula, can you complete the task?"
"I can, but I won't be happy."
Liu Ai told the truth: "I know that everyone is worried that Xiahou Jun will rebel after he gets the military power. But my whole family is in Zhuo County, and I am willing to guarantee it with my family's lives. If Xiahou Jun really rebels, please kill my whole family."
Ye Kun shook his head: "First, we have cancelled collective punishment. If you commit a crime, I will not use your family as a scapegoat. Second, compared to the safety of the country, the lives of your family are worthless.
I trust people when I employ them, and I don't employ people if I doubt them. If you want Xiahou Jun, I will give him to you. But you have to complete the task, otherwise, I will hold you accountable."
Liu Ai bowed and saluted: "With the emperor's words, I will complete the mission even if I die on the Tianzhu Peninsula!"
Upon hearing this, Ye Kun hesitated to speak.
We haven't even set off yet, and you're already saying such unlucky things!
Sang Buyi and others were still worried, but they didn't dare to say anything more.
Liu Ai clasped his fists and said goodbye: "Your Majesty, I will go back and pack up. In five days, we can leave for the Tianzhu Peninsula."
Ye Kun nodded: "I will send a telegram to Qin Erwu and others to ask them to accept the arrangement."
After the meeting, Ye Kun sent telegrams to Hu Gaoyuan and others.
Order Qin Erwu to return to Zhuo County and be assigned another task.
He ordered Hu Gaoyuan and Song Poliu to temporarily take charge of the situation and wait for Liu Ai to arrive.
The resolution of this meeting was also sent to Hu Gaoyuan, allowing him to focus on construction, production, building a base camp, and stabilizing the rear area.
Five days later, Liu Ai went to the Tianzhu Peninsula with Ye Kun and the nine departments' appointments.
Ye Kun was very generous. He gave Liu Ai thousands of guards and technical medical personnel, and ordered ports in various places to provide supplies.
The journey is long and we have to cross the Strait of Malacca. It is estimated to take more than a month to arrive.
Ma Zhao complained to Ye Kun that he should not have agreed to send Xiahou Jun to the Tianzhu Peninsula.
Ye Kun smiled and said, "Xiahou Jun has soldiers, but his generals are all trained by our military academy and are absolutely loyal to the court. Even if Xiahou Jun has an army of 100,000, it will not be easy to rebel.
In addition, the military power of the Tianzhu Peninsula is in the hands of Song Poliu. In terms of combat level, Xiahou Jun is not as good as Song Poliu, so how dare he rebel? "
Ma Zhao sighed: "Even so, the emperor must be on guard. It is better to leave Xiahou Jun and his family in Zhuo County."
Ye Kun nodded: "Okay, I'll listen to you. You go and arrange this matter."
While they were talking, Huang Ye came running over excitedly and shouted, "Your Majesty, great joy."
Ye Kun frowned: "Where does the joy come from?"
"From the north." Huang Ye laughed:
"Tianxian Chanyu, in order to preserve our people, is willing to surrender and bring all the remaining Xiongnu into the Great Wall to accept the emperor's management."
"Really?"
Ye Kun was so surprised that he couldn't help but stand up.
"Of course it's true. This is a telegram sent from the Beihai Camp."
Huang Ye bowed and handed over the telegram.
Ye Kun and Sang Buyi read the telegram and laughed.
This time, the Northern Huns were completely defeated. From the North Sea to the north to the Arctic Ocean, there were no more enemies!
Sang Buyi smiled and said, "Your Majesty, we still have to prevent Tianxian Chanyu from pretending to surrender. We have to make careful arrangements on how to accept the surrender."
Ye Kun nodded and convened an emergency meeting of nine departments to discuss matters with everyone.
He Kangju pondered and said, "It's winter now. There is heavy snow everywhere on the vast grassland. Tianxian Chanyu surrendered, and we have no choice but to take him back to the south of the Great Wall.
Maybe this guy is just pretending to surrender to steal our winter food. Or even to make us relax our vigilance and then launch another surprise attack on the Beihai camp."
Ma Zhengyang smiled and said, "Mr. He's analysis is entirely possible."
"It is indeed possible."
Ye Kun took over the conversation: "But Lord He said that it is impossible to bring the remnants of the Xiongnu here in winter, but I disagree. We have built a supply line from Yinshan to Beihai. There are a total of 20 small cities on the supply line, all with sufficient food and grass.
If we send another batch of supplies and cotton clothes from Yinshan to support the front, it will be possible to escort the remaining Xiongnu back in batches."
Guan Bao agreed with Ye Kun's opinion: "The Xiongnu people are cold-resistant. If it weren't for the snowstorm, they could still travel on horseback. Bringing them back in batches should be no problem."
Everyone expressed their opinions and discussed the matter.
Sang Buyi discussed with Ye Kun and said:
"Then let's do this. First, escort the first batch of Tianxian Chanyu's family back. If Tianxian Chanyu agrees, it means he is truly surrendering; if he doesn't agree, it is undoubtedly a false surrender.
After Tianxian Chanyu, we will escort the others back in batches; those who are too late will be placed in various small towns until tomorrow spring. "
Everyone agreed to the proposal.
Ye Kun asked Guan Bao to draft a reply and send it to Yanran New City and Beihai Camp.
Two days later, Beihai called back and said that Tianxian Chanyu had agreed to all of Ye Kun's arrangements and that they could go south in batches to accept management.
Ye Kun was overjoyed and immediately sent orders to the Yinshan camp to send 10,000 people with sufficient food, dried meat, and cotton clothes to the prairie to meet them.
At the same time, he ordered 400 members of Tianxian Chanyu's family to immediately set out south under the escort of the Han army.
In order to show his caution, Ye Kun asked Guan Bao to lead the team and take personal charge of the matter.
After arranging the surrender of the Huns, it was time for Crown Prince Ye Feng's wedding.
Jiang Yourong smiled and said, "Your Majesty, now that state affairs have been arranged, it's time to arrange family affairs."
