Chapter 591 Lifting the Sedan
Uncle Zheng did not expect that his uncle's reaction would be so quick and direct.
Like the old lady in the red curtain, she leads you in and leads you to sit down. Before your buttocks get warm, you come out, and then you come out.
Things,
That’s what happened;
Process,
It is also such a process;
But it makes people feel a little empty in their hearts. Sometimes, it is too refreshing, which often makes people feel unhappy.
At the moment,
Zheng Boye's three armies entered Panhe County. The forward army soon came into contact with the Chu army's front troops in front of Liugong Mountain, and the two sides immediately entered the battle. The outpost riding and fighting session is equivalent to a kind of warm-up.
Since entering Chu by boat, Uncle Zheng has been troubled by the lack of cavalry. He was used to using cavalry before and didn't feel it, but when he really had no horses at hand,
he felt this constraint and frustration.
Now,
the Jingnan Army cavalry is in his hands. It’s time to have a good show and let the uncle open his eyes about what the real Dayan cavalry is. But my brother simply stopped and
knelt down.
Kneeling naturally,
Kneeling unpretentiously,
Zheng Uncle Mou Zujin punched the cotton with his fist.
“But it’s okay, the battle is finally over.”
Uncle Zheng’s feet were raised on the handsome table, and Siniang stood behind him, massaging his head. .
"Yes, the war is finally over."
"Before the war, I felt that life was too plain and boring. After the war, I felt that there were still too many things in the past that I had not savored. Go and enjoy it.”
Uncle Zheng misses his Earl’s Mansion,
misses his godson,
misses the charming princess,
Of course,
I also want to hear Liu Ruqing call uncle.
This kind of life is quite good. Sometimes I go out to fight. After I "take off my armor" and return home, I understand the comfort of home better;
It's just like saying goodbye is better than getting married.
“Yes, there are many wonderful places in this world. We have been busy fighting in the past few years and have no time to go and see them.”
"Well, it will be done soon. If everything goes well, we will have Fengxin, Xueguan and Zhennanguan in our hands. Based on these three places, most of Shanxi Province will fall into our hands." After that, the development can be completely on the right track, and it can even be like that of my uncle. We are now normalizing our relations, doing business, etc.”
“My lord, the peace talks haven’t been decided yet, and you’ve already thought so far ahead?”
< br>"They are all realistic people, he will do it."
Uncle Zheng stretched his waist,
Said:
“After that, we can develop along the same lines as the Zhenbei Marquis Mansion, focusing on both the military and people’s livelihood. We ourselves can feel a little more relaxed.
Maybe we can still I can take some time to take a walk, go sightseeing, etc. ”
Work hard all the way,
What you want,
Isn't that what it is?
Why do so many warlords in history want to separate feudal vassals? To put it bluntly, they want the feeling that life and death are in their own hands.
The separatism of vassals and towns is due to human nature, and it is also inevitable for the development of a group.
To put it bluntly,
If it weren’t for Li Liangting and Tian Wujing, the two major vassal towns in Dayan would not be able to escape.
The Qian Kingdom has actually done the best in this regard. The civil servants have been staring like copper bells for ten years;
Once a local military leader shows the trend of becoming a vassal town, he will immediately start to break it up. Cut it off to kill the threat in advance.
That’s why Han Xianggong’s reputation rose after Mr. Thorny Face died of depression in prison. Is it possible that all the princes in the dynasty didn’t know that Mr. Thorny Face was wrongly accused?
They are aware of this, but what they care more about is the stability of the imperial authority.
“By the way, the imperial envoy from Chu will be here soon, right?”
"Yes, we have prepared it according to your instructions, my lord. However, my subordinates feel that this seems to be too much to give face to the people of Chu."
"It's not about giving face but not giving face. How much is it worth? The key is to implement it as soon as possible. The blind man received a letter from Zixue Customs, saying that the floods in Jin are getting worse. Lie, also said that there is a locust plague in Yandi, and there is a large-scale drought.
If this battle continues, it is uncertain who will collapse first.
The army must hurry up. It is not suitable to stay outside to go back to suppress the situation and maintain stability.
Furthermore,
Rather than saying this is a negotiation between Yan and Chu, it is better to say it is a negotiation between me, Zheng Fan, and my uncle.
This is not the interest of Yan and Chu, but the interest between me and my uncle.
In order to centralize his power, he did not hesitate to borrow a knife to destroy Yingdu. I wanted to end this war as soon as possible so that I could take back Zhennanguan and open a mansion, and I didn’t want the war to drag on.
If we close this stall early, Jindong can get on the normal track of development earlier. Sometimes a few more months of delay often means a delay of at least two years.
My uncle-in-law should also know this truth, so if he wants the last bit of face, I will carry the sedan for him. Over at Zhennanguan, he will also urge his Nian Yao to be more agile. . ”
"My Lord is really far-sighted, and my subordinates admire him."
"Hey, where does such far-sightedness come from? It's just a tacit understanding between two people who don't like to take the overall situation into consideration."
.........
The imperial envoy Zuo Situ Dingliang sent from Liugongshan came.
Accompanying him were many civil servants and a group of imperial guards.
Flying the fire phoenix flag, it seems that there is no sense of panic and uneasiness like a country being destroyed and fleeing to the small court. Instead, it still displays the etiquette of a big country.
Before Ding Liang and his party entered the military camp, they happened to see a group of Yan soldiers returning with looted women from the nearby Chu people.
Immediately,
Ding Liang ignored the fierceness of the Yan soldiers and stood in front of the Yan army's stronghold. He blocked hundreds of Yan troops by one person, shouted at them, and asked them to let go immediately. Innocent Chu people.
Warning the Yan army with righteous words, this is the territory of Da Chu, they are the people of Da Chu, he is the Situ of Da Chu, the emperor of Da Chu is still there, and the people of Da Chu, Don't be bullied!
The Yan Jun knight found it a bit funny, but he still let these Chu women go as he had been ordered to do.
The women of Chu State knelt down around Ding Liang, cried and shouted, and then kowtowed to Ding Liang to express their gratitude.
"Liang stood up in front and rebuked the Yan captives. He showed his great righteousness and conveyed his empathy to them. Although the war came in front of him, he did not avoid it. The Yan captives were so ashamed that they let him go and admired him privately.< br>
The Ye Bo of Yan Ping heard this and said to his left and right: "Liang, you are really a man."
Next,
Ding Liang and his party entered the military camp.
There are many soldiers in the Yan army's stronghold, seemingly to deliberately put pressure on the imperial envoys of the Chu state.
Ding Liang's face remained unchanged, holding the festival in his left hand and the imperial edict in his right hand, walking in front of the commander's tent.
"Liang entered Yanlu's stronghold. Yanlu was powerful, but Liang remained unmoved. Yanlu knew that there was still blood and courage in the Chu land to hold his own, and no one dared to look down upon him."
Soon,
Another Yan army general came up to humiliate Chu,
Ding Liang refuted it again.
Immediately afterwards,
another general officer smiled and said that the Chu army was useless and did not dare to fight in the field;
Ding Liang refuted it again.
Then, there was a group of civilians crying and singing Chu folk songs there. They were captured to work for the Yan army's military camp.
How is it possible to capture a civilian husband during a long-distance attack? Fortunately, "creatures" like the civilian husband can be easily caught unless they are in inaccessible places.
In Ding Liang's team, a minister stepped forward and reprimanded them for being used by Yan Lu.
Ding Liang denounced the minister and cried bitterly: It is those of us who eat the emperor's salary who fail to share the emperor's worries, which makes the people have to be homeless and captured by thieves.
The minister was very ashamed when he heard this.
Lin Linzongzong, and then encountered a few more things, and Ding Liang said a few more words.
When Ding Liang was finally able to enter the commander's tent,
when he saw Uncle Hirano sitting there alone in the commander's tent with no one else,
the Regent of Dachu Left Situ,
actually felt a little embarrassed.
When he came, the regent actually said that his brother-in-law would be very cooperative.
But Ding Liang really didn’t expect that Uncle Hirano would know the tricks so well.
Today I entered the Yan Army's military camp. When I go back, I will definitely leave a mark in the history books, no, many, many marks.
It will become a story and be praised by the world for his integrity;
This will be his capital in the court in the future, his aura, his political correctness, and his success in every political task. As for the great opportunity that he couldn't ask for, he just made a bunch of candied haws this time and ate it in one go. It was so sweet that it made you sick.
Therefore,
we are all here,
now there are only two of us in the tent,
Ding Liang no longer makes any pretense,
and It is to take the initiative to bow and salute,
"I've met the Prince Consort."
Uncle Zheng nodded, pointed to the futon in front of him and said:
"Sit down."
"Thank you, Prince Consort. ”
Ding Liang knelt down and sat down.
When Chu people sit on their knees, they pay attention to the elegance of their body posture. They first bend down and then straighten their waists and backs. At the same time, they lift up the long hair on the temples with both hands, taking into account both the beauty of the posture and the beauty of the body.
Uncle Zheng took off the water bag from his body, threw it over,
said:
"Drink some water."
Previously in Outside, a lot of righteous words were said, and the mouth must be dry.
Ding Liang didn't hesitate, pulled out the stopper, and took two big gulps. He was really thirsty.
"Thank you, Prince Consort."
"You're welcome, they are all from my family."
The previous arrangements outside were all made under Uncle Zheng's orders.
The reason why it can be so considerate is that similar stories have appeared too many times in the history that Uncle Zheng is familiar with, and it is nothing more than used.
However,
Integrity is something that
when we talk about it,
it is often the only thing left.
As the last fig leaf, if you don’t talk about it, there will be nothing else to talk about.
It's nothing more than some false reputation. Moreover, the Yan people in China will not be interested in these "stories", and the Chu people will burst into tears upon hearing it;
So Uncle Zheng doesn't mind carrying this sedan.
But the sedan chair was not carried in vain.
Next,
it depends on the attitude of my uncle.
"Let's get straight to the point. I don't want to fight anymore and want to return to my country. But for this battle, I have to give an explanation to the country and the court."
Such a straight-to-the-point negotiation method made it easier for me to Ding Liang was caught off guard. He came with an envoy this time just to engage in a verbal battle with the Yan people.
But at the moment, it seems that Mr. Hirano is too lazy to waste this time.
This will be easy to handle,
When the attitudes of the two characters above are clear,
It is much more convenient for the people below him.
Of course, Ding Liang did not dare to treat Hirano Bo as a fool and change the conditions given by the regent without authorization in order to reduce losses for Dachu;
Because Ding Liang knew clearly that the man sitting in front of him This Mr. Hirano is only less of a fool than himself.
As one of the invading parties,
actually he was able to very skillfully help him go through the process, boost his reputation, and refresh his story. Such tricks and scheming proved that the other party was not only good at fighting, but even Even if you are hanging around in the court, you will definitely stand out, and you must not treat him like an ordinary martial artist.
At critical moments, people who like to add superfluous information are often not smart people, but people who think they are smart.
So,
Ding Liang directly stated the regent’s bottom line:
“Zhennanguan can be handed over to...your consort.
< br>Shanggu County will also be handed over to the State of Yan. Our Chu army will withdraw to the south of the Wei River, and the Yan army must ensure the safety of General Nian's troops across the Wei River."
In fact, although it is true that the grain road in Zhennan Pass was cut off, a batch of grain and grass should have been stored in the pass before. It would not last long, but if Nian Yao really took it out, Qu Tiannan guarded Yupan City with two feet. Even though the sheep are caught and eaten so fiercely, they can still stay there for a long time.
At the same time, the regent will definitely recruit Chu troops from all walks of life to support Nian Yao at Zhennanguan at any cost.
Because now it seems that Nian Yao's part is used by the regent to clean up the country. It is absolutely impossible for him to accept the defeat of Nian Yao's troops.
Furthermore, Nian Yao himself is also an extremely outstanding commander. At present, the elite of the Jingnan Army Headquarters, which is the most capable cavalry of more than 100,000, are divided into two parts. The bulk is here, and the other part is in Huang. At Luoling in Gu County, it was also used to accompany Dugu Mu in circles.
In addition, several troops capable of fighting, including Li Fusheng, also crossed the Wei River and entered other areas of Chu to open up the war situation.
Therefore, although there are many Yan troops staying in Shanggu County to monitor Zhennanguan, if Nian Yao leads hundreds of thousands of Chu troops who are "like arrows to return" out of the city and run home, it is still unclear whether the Yan troops there can successfully intercept them. It's hard to say.
The best result is to let Nian Yao cut off his tail to survive, pay a certain price to cut off one part of his team, and then the main force can jump out.
The worst result was that Nian Yao launched a counterattack against the Yan army in Shanggu County, and the Yan army suffered a defeat.
In any case, after this, once Nian Yao's troops are free, the Yan army and the Chu army will engage in an almost endless battle in the vast northern territory of Chu State.
The Yan army did not intend to occupy the territory or operate it, so they only made a cavalry advance. The Chu people had the advantage of occupying the home field, which meant that they were not as good as the Yan army in terms of field combat ability, but they could use time and space to gain the initiative. .
In short,
the fight continues,
unless Uncle Zheng can have the confidence to replace King Jingnan and forcibly unite the Yan armies from all walks of life, and achieve a few great victories like the one at Wangjiang River that defeated the main force of the Savage King. , defeated the main force of the Chu people several times, and completely wiped out all the Chu army forces in the northern part of the Chu Kingdom that could threaten our own side. Otherwise, this battle is destined to be a confused battle.
Besides, Chu people are not stupid. With so many examples before them, how could they stupidly gather the main force and come out to fight a few decisive battles with you Yan people?
For this reason, the smooth handover of Zhennanguan is a compromise based on the current situation. There is no question of who simply pays or not.
This is completely different from the surrender of Qu Tiannan at Yupan City.
The Yan people want to withdraw, and the Chu people want to end this war as soon as possible. Everyone's needs are the same.
But,
Negotiation,
As the victor in name and in fact,
Uncle Zheng would not be so content and would not take advantage of the bastard.
"I think it's too simple."
"The prince-in-law is relieved and sends an envoy to Yanjing to submit the letter of credentials for peace to His Majesty the Emperor of Yan. At the same time, he accepts the coins. Calling me nephew, my regent has agreed to all these things. "
It means that we will do a good job in official matters. It is nothing more than a matter of face.
Zheng Fan shook his head and said:
"It's still not enough. The people of Chu violated morality first and sent assassins to assassinate my Majesty Dayan. People and gods were angry. How could it be settled so lightly?"
"Prince-in-law, what happened to that assassination?" Son, you don’t have it in your heart Count?”
“You mean I’m not being reasonable?”
“I don’t dare.”
“I’m not being reasonable. Reason, what’s wrong?”
"This..."
"Throughout the ages, the two countries have had diplomatic relations. To put it bluntly, it's just that whoever has the bigger fist has the greater reason."
"I don't know if the prince-in-law knows, The floods in Jin are getting worse, and the drought in Yan has also become a problem."
"I know."
"Yan, we should withdraw our troops."
"Haha, don't be in a hurry, don't be in a hurry. You have to withdraw the troops, but you have to get enough benefits. This time I attack Chu, I, Dayan, tighten my belt and fight. How much? I need some money to turn back, right?
Don’t talk to me about natural disasters in the country anymore. If it doesn’t work, I will lead my army to live in your Chu land. Anyway, it’s possible in the country. We are also short of food, so why don’t we ask you, the Chu people, to be our hosts?”
Ding Liang knew that what Uncle Hirano said was a joke,
but he knew better,
If you no longer provide a benefit to Yan Guo, no, to be precise, to this uncle Ping Ye, the other party will not be satisfied.
"Prince-in-law, I have here a letter from my king to you, but my king ordered that his sister-in-law be asked to receive this letter instead of Uncle Hirano of Dayan."
"I'm seeing you outside."
Uncle Zheng didn't hesitate at all, he stretched out his hand and took the letter.
The words in the letter,
very straightforward,
There's nothing wrong with that, it's all just plain talk.
At the beginning,
listed a list of names of noble families. Their fiefdoms were basically located in the north of Chu State.
In fact, because the southern part of the Chu Kingdom was later pacified, there were not many aristocratic fiefdoms there.
Next,
This is the opening statement:
Brother-in-law, if you are short of money or food, go and get it from these families.
In the future, my brother-in-law, you will look after my home from the north, and I will feel at ease, brother.
"Oh, is this for you? Isn't this uncle going to get it himself?"
"Prince-in-law, look at the second page."
Uncle Zheng took out the second page of the letter.
This letter is very detailed.
It is the secret location of the nobles’ secret places where food and gold and silver treasures were stored in the fiefdom recorded by the Fengchao guards. .
Um,
These,
To be honest,
Even if Uncle Zheng led his army into their fiefdom, he would definitely not be able to loot it for a while. The nobles are very good at storing food in their treasure houses, because that is the basis for their comeback. For example, the Helian Family Treasure House, ordinary people don’t even know there is such a place in the family.
"Huh..."
Uncle Zheng breathed a sigh of relief,
nodded,
Said:
“Go back and tell my uncle that the princess misses him very much.”
“Yes, Prince Consort.”
“The king also said, I hope The prince-in-law can treat the princess well, and he is also waiting to be his uncle."
Zheng Fan nodded slightly,
Said:
"Uncle Ben knows."
…………
The teeth that Kaifu builds teeth are correct, Taiban means more than half.
Also, there will be more tonight, so don’t panic! (End of chapter)
