Chapter 410: Meeting Daochen

After a great preparation, Liu Rengui led the army to attack Zhouliu City and surrounded it.

The soldiers and civilians in the city had already been frightened by the strength of the Tang army. Seeing Zhouliu City besieged by the Tang army and the lack of food and grass in the city, some people were inevitably panicked.

Liu Rengui sent Liu Renyuan to Zhouliu City to talk to Daochen and Fuxin Chen of Buyeo about recruiting them.

If they could recruit them, it would be of great benefit to pacifying Baekje.

Liu Renyuan went to Zhouliu City for half a day and then returned to the Tang army camp. When Liu Rengui learned that he had returned, he immediately asked someone to call him in for questioning.

"General Liu, have we succeeded in recruiting them?" Liu Renyuan asked.

"Daochen sternly refused and hoped that we could withdraw from Baekje on our own initiative, otherwise, they would fight to the end."

"As for Buyeo Fuxin, they are somewhat interested, but their attitude is still unclear. It is probably impossible to recruit them."

"However, according to my observation, the relationship between Daochen and Buyeo Fuxin is tense and the two sides are not harmonious." Liu Renyuan said.

"If it is really as you said, we can take advantage of it." Liu Renyuan said.

"How do you plan to use the gap between them to achieve the result we want?" Liu Renyuan asked.

"The hermit has a good plan! Everything will be clear after I meet Daochen tomorrow. General, just wait and see." Liu Renyuan said with a smile.

"Could it be that you are planning to sow discord! Let them kill each other?" Liu Renyuan thought of a possibility and asked.

"That's right!" Liu Rengui stroked his beard.

"Then what do you need me to do?" Liu Renyuan asked.

"Don't bother the governor! I'll just send a letter to the city!" Liu Rengui said.

"In that case, I won't bother the Duke of Lecheng!" Liu Renyuan stood up and said goodbye.

Liu Rengui stood up to see him off, then turned around and came to the desk, picked up a pen and wrote a letter to Daochen, asking him to meet outside the city tomorrow, in front of the two armies, to discuss confidential matters.

"Come here!" Liu Rengui shouted outside the tent.

The guard outside the tent heard the shout and came in immediately, saluted with his hands crossed and said, "What do you want, Governor?"

"Send this letter to Zhouliu City quickly, and let the guards in the city give this letter to Daochen." Liu Rengui said.

"Yes!" The guard took the order, took the letter from Liu Rengui and left the tent, went to Zhouliu City, and shouted to the guards in the city to put down the hanging basket, and saw the letter hanging up and handed it to Daochen.

The letter from Liu Rengui to Daochen did not reach Daochen directly, but was known by Buyeo Feng and others, and the king and ministers of Baekje read together what Liu Rengui wrote to Daochen.

After turning it over and over, the letter only had one sentence, "Tomorrow morning, I invite you to speak in front of the battle line. I hope you will come and see me."

"Daochen, as the general of my Baekje army, why would the enemy commander write you such a letter and speak in front of you? What do you want to say?"

"Could it be that you have betrayed Baekje and the king and want to surrender to the Tang army and sell out your master for glory?" Fu Yu Fu Xin questioned Daochen aggressively.

The Tang army originally wanted to recruit them and promised them high positions and generous salaries. Fu Xin originally planned to accept the Tang army's recruitment. After all, the Tang army was powerful and they would definitely be wiped out if they resisted.

Rather than dying without a burial place, it is better to surrender and accept the other party's amnesty, and you can get a high position and a good salary, and you don't have to worry about the rest of your life. Being a high official in the Tang Dynasty is much better than being a high official in Baekje.

But all these were destroyed by Daochen. He was unwilling to agree to the amnesty of the Tang Dynasty and insisted on living and dying with Baekje.

Daochen's brain was kicked by a donkey, so he refused such a good condition and refused to be amnesty.

Fuyu Fuxin had long hated Daochen who opposed him everywhere. Now there is a chance to move to him, how can Fuyu Fuxin miss it.

"Don't slander me, Daochen. My loyalty to Baekje and the king is known to heaven and earth." Daochen argued.

He didn't expect Buyeo Bok-sin to be so crazy that he wanted to take the opportunity to slander him for colluding with foreign enemies and put him to death.

Yes, there were conflicts between the two of them and they were wary of each other, but these were personal grudges. He thought that in front of the country, they should be united against the enemy.

But who would have thought that Buyeo Bok-sin would actually put him to death for his own selfish desires.

"I slandered you, it's ridiculous. Why did Liu Rengui only write to you? The king is the ruler of Baekje. If the two sides have anything to discuss, they should discuss it with the king."

"You Daochen are just a minister. What qualifications do you have to interfere? What virtues and abilities do you have to be favored by the Tang ambassador?"

"Or is it that the king is not as good as you Daochen? Others only know you Daochen, but not the ruler of Baekje."

"The letter Liu Rengui sent to you is the ironclad evidence of your collusion with the enemy. Do you still want to quibble?" Fu Yu Fuxin scolded, his eyes wide open, making Daochen tremble with anger.

Fu Yu Fuxin saw this and decided to strike while the iron was hot and thoroughly prove Daochen's crime of colluding with foreign enemies.

Buyeo Bok-sin turned around quickly, knelt down at Buyeo Feng's feet and said, "Your Majesty, Dao Chen's wolfish ambitions are obvious. If this man is not removed, Baekje will be in danger!"

Buyeo Feng frowned. He never believed Buyeo Bok-sin and Dao Chen, the two ministers who welcomed him back to be the king.

They would blame him for everything and even interfere in his affairs.

As a king, it is absolutely intolerable that two ministers dare to point fingers in front of him.

Buyeo Feng will not just listen to Buyeo Bok-sin's words and execute Dao Chen. If so, no one can suppress him.

Whether it is Dao Chen or Buyeo Bok-sin, if one of them falls, the delicate balance will be broken.

The revival of Baekje is a long way off. If the balance between them is broken and one party becomes the only one in power, then he, Buyeo Feng, will be completely reduced to a puppet, and his life and death will be controlled by the powerful ministers.

This is not the situation Buyeo Feng wants. Only when they fight each other can he benefit. During the time he returned to Baekje, he has won over many ministers.

As long as time passes, he, Buyeo Feng, will be able to completely control the right to speak in Baekje, and he will be the real king of Baekje.

"Your Majesty!" Buyeo Bok-sin knelt on the ground for a long time, but did not see Buyeo Feng make any move, so he shouted loudly.

But in his heart he hated Fu Yufeng and wanted to kill him right now. If it wasn't the right time, he would not be polite.

If he hadn't helped Yu Fuxin, it would have been a wishful thinking for him, a guy who was a hostage in an overseas island country, to come back and become the king. He didn't even think about

who he was. I can help you ascend the throne and I can also pull you down from the throne.
