"I am Yao Chong, on the order of Your Majesty, come and make friends with you. This is a little gift, please accept it with a smile."

Yao Chong bowed and explained his purpose to Zhang Hua, which was exactly the same as Xie An's prediction.

Yao Chong was old, but he still had to come to form an alliance in person.

It was really because Emperor Xuanzong of Tang and An Lu Shan merged, and he could no longer free up his troops to deal with Zhang Hua's power.

"You mean that Li Longji wants to deal with An Lushan with me?"

Zhang Hua called Emperor Xuanzong of Tang directly, which made Yao Chong frown slightly.

In the eyes of Yao Chong, the old prime minister, Zhang Hua was a little young and frivolous.

Emperor Xuanzong of Tang was a wise monarch of Yao Chong at least, and Emperor Emperor of Tang, so how could he call him a name?

As a descendant, Zhang Hua did not have many concerns.

In addition, Zhang Hua's power is not weaker than Emperor Xuanzong of Tang, and is enough to be on par with him.

If the population of Heluo is included, Zhang Hua's power has surpassed Emperor Xuanzong of Tang.

Yao Chong was too old and did not show any dissatisfaction, and focused on talking about the important matters: "An Lushan was a Hu person, and most of his troops were the soldiers of the Hu tribe, burning, killing, looting, and causing harm to one side. Now, only our Majesty, Qin Xiaogong, and you can compete with him. Our Majesty believes that you are young and promising, and you are willing to marry the eldest princess to you, form the Qin and Jin ties with you, and send troops together to eradicate the disaster of An Lushan."

"Isn't Li Longji kidding?"

Zhang Hua was stunned.

Emperor Xuanzong of Tang Dynasty, Li Longji, actually wanted to marry the eldest princess to himself and form an alliance with him?

The eldest princess is naturally Li Longji's eldest daughter.

In this way, wouldn’t I become the son-in-law of the Tang Dynasty?

Emperor Xuanzong of Tang Dynasty Li Longji became father-in-law?

In a moment, many thoughts flashed through Zhang Hua's heart.

If you agree to the marriage and attack Li Longji in the future, it will become an attack on your father-in-law and will be charged with rebellion and tyrannical crimes.

Tang Xuanzong's move was indeed ruthless.

For an emperor like Emperor Xuanzong of Tang who valued power, marrying a daughter is used to exchange for more political capital, making sure to make a profit and not lose money.

Zhang Hua looked at Li Ji, Xie An and Chen Gong present.

These three people have at least 90 intelligences, and they are the think tanks used by Zhang Hua to guide Guanzhong.

Zhang Hua can confirm their attitude through their eyes.

However, unexpectedly, the three of them did not reach an agreement!

Chen Gong shook his head slightly, obviously suggesting that Zhang Hua reject Yao Chong's proposal.

Xie An put in an encouraging look and wanted Zhang Hua to agree.

Li Ji did not express his attitude, and his attitude was unclear.

The three advisers gave Zhang Hua three different opinions!

How to choose this?

Zhang Hua had no choice but to use the drag-on technique: "It's important, I can't agree to you immediately, but we may be able to discuss in detail the attack and destruction of An Lushan."

Zhang Hua didn't have much affection for An Lushan.

If An Lushan was captured and destroyed, Zhang Hua could accept it and divide the territory of An Lushan with Emperor Xuanzong of Tang.

There is a principle for joining the Zong and Lianheng, which is basically correct, that is, uniting weak forces to deal with powerful forces.

After An Lushan became the largest force in Qinchuan in one fell swoop, Emperor Xuanzong of Tang began to hook up with Zhang Hua and plot against An Lushan.

An Lushan captured Chang'an City and almost captured Emperor Xuanzong alive, which made Emperor Xuanzong of Tang furious.

Temporarily let go of the previous grudges with Zhang Hua and deal with An Lushan together.

As the saying goes, there is no eternal enemy, only eternal interests.

Yao Chong said: "Our Tang army attacked Sanyuan Town, your Xia army attacked Meiyuan Town, and two groups attacked An Lushan's Yan army will be wiped out in an instant, so please don't hesitate."

Li Ji interrupted: "There is no problem with these two routes."

Yao Chong stared at Zhang Hua and found that Zhang Hua and others were confident, so he said, "I guess you have not been hunting in Guanzhong these few days, but have returned to Heluo. Could it be that the population of your territory has increased again?"

Yao Chong is really an old fox, and he discovered this.

Yao Chong faintly realized that Zhang Hua's power was expanding, and the Tang army might not be able to suppress Zhang Hua's Xia army.

The two major forces divide An Lushan's territory, and Emperor Xuanzong of Tang will face an equally powerful enemy.

"How I acted does not seem to have anything to do with you."

Zhang Hua did not admit it or deny it.

This is diplomacy.

Yao Chong recognized Zhang Hua's qualification to marry the Tang Dynasty.

Yao Chong bowed again: "Please consider it again and again when it comes to marriage and alliance."

Zhang Hua asked Yao Chong to stay in Huayin County and discuss the marriage with Li Ji, Chen Gong and Xie An again.

Whether to marry the power of Emperor Xuanzong of Tang is a big problem.

Xie An, who was born in the Jiangzuo High School, recognized this kind of marriage between aristocratic families, especially the other party was the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, so Zhang Hua could establish a relationship with the Tang Dynasty royal family and enhance Zhang Hua's reputation among the people of the Tang Dynasty.

Chen Gong disagreed: "The marriage is not conducive to conquering the Tang Dynasty. Once the troops are sent, they will be criticized. It is better to refuse it and use troops against the Tang Dynasty in the future."

Zhang Hua looked at Li Ji, and he believed that Li Ji had ideas too.

Li Ji replied: "The pros and cons of this matter have been stated. From the perspective of subordinates, it is indeed not appropriate to be considered as a denomination. If the lord likes the eldest princess of the Tang Dynasty, he can only take him as a concubine after defeating Li Longji. In this way, the other party is the daughter of the devastated country and has a humble status, so the lord does not have to submit to Li Longji."

Zhang Hua’s three think tanks, one of them agreed, and the two opposed it, it depends on Zhang Hua’s choice.

"It makes sense."

In the end, Zhang Hua rejected Yao Chong's request for marriage.

The eldest princess of the Tang Dynasty married, which was equivalent to Zhang Hua's recognition of Emperor Xuanzong of Tang as his father-in-law, and his status was lower than that of Emperor Xuanzong of Tang. He would eventually have some concerns when he sent troops to attack Emperor Xuanzong of Tang.

It is easy to get in touch with the Tang Dynasty royal family, but it is just a matter of defeating Emperor Xuanzong of Tang and then forcibly marry his daughter.

Moreover, Zhang Hua had just formed an alliance with Sun Ce and married Emperor Xuanzong of Tang, so it was hard to imagine how Sun Ce would react.

However, refusing to marry does not mean refusing to cooperate with Tang Jun.

The next day, Zhang Hua recruited Yao Chong and agreed on the time to attack An Lushan.

"Send troops to attack him in the cold winter."

To Zhang Hua and others' surprise, the Tang army represented by Yao Chong actually planned to attack An Lushan in the cold winter.

"Happy to accompany you."

Seeing that Yao Chong was determined, Zhang Hua knew that the Tang army was determined to destroy An Lushan.

An Lushan's behavior of plundering Chang'an City has angered 100,000 Tang troops.

So, Zhang Hua decided to launch an offensive with the Tang army in the cold winter to attack An Lushan.

The Tang army was commander of Li Daozong, and generals such as Xue Rengui, Qi Zhu Heli, Zhang Shigui were the main generals of various fields.

Zhang Hua also promised to send at least 60,000 troops to cooperate with the Tang army to launch an attack.

Both sides finalize the march route for each stage.

The Tang army attacked An Lushan head-on and advanced to Sanyuan Town.

Zhang Hua led his troops to attack Meiyuan Town, located northeast of Sanyuan Town and Huayuan Town in the north, cut off An Lushan's retreat, and then encircled and annihilated An Lushan's 200,000 main forces in Sanyuan Town with the Tang army.

"Your Highness the Princess is beautiful and has a gentle and elegant temperament. Don't you think twice?"

After both sides finalized the plan for march, Yao Chong once again encouraged Zhang Hua to become the son-in-law of the Tang Dynasty.

"I won't talk about this matter for now."

Zhang Hua disagrees with the things that others cannot envy.

Yao Chong had no choice.

He couldn't give up his dignity, so he knelt down and begged Zhang Hua to become the prince consort of the Tang Dynasty?

This would damage the majesty of the Tang Dynasty royal family...

Now the status of both sides has been changed due to changes in strength. Zhang Hua is a man that the eldest princess of the Tang Dynasty cannot get.

"Then I'm sorry, I'll leave. The soldiers and horses of both sides went out to fight at the agreed time. If you have this statement, God and man will kill them together."

Yao Chong left with his entourage.

When leaving the territory of Huayin County, Yao Chong turned to look at Zhang Hua's territory and said to his entourage: "This person does not want to be a prince consort. He does not seek beauty. He has a great ambition. In the future, we may be captured by him."

The followers from both sides looked at each other, and Yao Chong's evaluation of Zhang Hua was too high.

In fact, Zhang Hua really doesn't want to be a princess in the Tang Dynasty whom he had never met.
