Chapter 778: Cutting off the iron sword leads to nowhere, and it takes no effort at all to get it! Want to sue for peace? Then show sincerity!
In the Qin army formation, Ying Chengyu looked at the soldiers behind him and shouted excitedly: "Soldiers!"
"In this battle, the enemy is outnumbered, but the enemy is just a mere handful. They are just weak!"
"Even if our army only has more than 70,000 troops, we will still be able to defeat it!"
"But what we want is not just a great victory. We must avenge the king! Get back the head of Prince Yan!”
"Everyone!"
"Would you like to help me again?!"
The more than 70,000 exhausted soldiers of the Qin army forcibly cheered up and shouted: "I am willing to die for the commander! !”
Several Gongyang disciples wanted to shout out their lungs!
My coach’s ideas are really to my liking!
Ying Chengyu laughed heartily: "With the help of two or three men, we will definitely win this battle!"
"Pass this general's order!"
"The right army turned to the northeast and detoured towards Dui. After the city, block the Yan army's retreat!"
"The left army forms a square formation and is always on guard for the movements of the Dai army."
"The front and middle armies join forces and prepare to fight with the general! ”
"The rear army turns to the center army, hold down the formation, and wait for mobilization!"
A famous general took the order and left.
Although the soldiers of the Qin army who had gone through a fierce battle were physically exhausted, their spirits were particularly high.
However, when the Qin army was arrayed, Qi Bao, dressed in blue court uniforms, led ten ministers on horseback and approached the Qin army formation, raised his hands and shouted: "Qi Pao, Qing of Yan Shang" "Please see Lord Qin Chang'an!"
Ying Chengjian followed the sound and left the formation. Although he was filled with resentment, he still returned the favor and said, "Since Yan is asking for an answer in front of the formation, I will not refuse."
"Of course!"
"The State of Yan betrayed its alliance and attacked our country, Da Qin!"
"The Prince of Yan sent assassins to assassinate our king!"
"The State of Yan should give me to Da Qin first An explanation!"
Behind Ying Chengyu, the Qin troops from the Qin and Zhong Dynasties, more than 30,000 strong, roared in unison:
"Give me an explanation!"
Qibao immediately panicked!
But Qibao was not panicked by the roar of the more than 30,000 Qin troops.
But because Ying Chengyu actually defined this conversation as a front-of-battle reply!
After the fall of Handan City, who in the world today dares to talk to Ying Chengyu in front of the formation!
For the sake of King Yan Xi’s life, and for his own life, Qi Pao hurriedly raised his hands and said: “No! No!”
“I am not a general accompanying the army, but only here on behalf of our king. Envoy, how can you speak to Lord Qin Changan in front of the battle? "
"I invite you to join the Qin army to discuss state affairs with Lord Qin Changan!"
Ying Chengyu doesn't know how to ride! Why does Qi Bao care so much about the name of the negotiation? But since Qi Bao is so determined, he also leads with his right hand: "Qi Bao, please!"
Qi Bao quickly raised his hand and thanked: "Thank you, Lord Chang'an!"
In Qi Pao's view, no matter how effective the curse of answering in front of the formation is, it should only be used when answering in front of the formation.
Until Qibao was no longer in front of the formation of the two armies but in the middle of the Qin army's formation, Qibao finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Ying Chengyu had no idea what Qi Bao was thinking, so he directly asked in a deep voice: "Qi Bao, why are you here?"
Qi Bao bowed his hands and saluted: "My officer I came here to clear up the misunderstanding between Qin and Yan."
Ying Chengqiao said coldly: "Misunderstanding?"
"Is it a misunderstanding that the Yan State betrayed its alliance and attacked our country, Great Qin?!"
"Is it a misunderstanding that Prince Dan of Yan assassinated our king?!"
"If the Yan State blames everything on the misunderstanding, then this If you evade responsibility, you can leave now."
"You and I will argue on the battlefield!"
Qi Bao said sincerely: "I really think that. , there is a serious misunderstanding between Qin and Yan, but I, Dayan, will never evade responsibility.”
"Prince Dan sent assassins to assassinate the King of Qin, and the court knew nothing about it!"
"Then Prince Dan privately led troops to attack Qin when the court was determined to form an alliance with Qin!"
“When my king learned about Prince Dan’s move, he was furious and openly said that Prince Dan’s move was not worthy of being the Crown Prince of Yan!”
“It’s just that at that time, Prince Dan had already betrayed his alliance, and my king knew very well that the Qin State The situation is so great that our country, Great Yan, is really unstoppable, so we have to seek an alliance with Zhao.” It’s just that Prince Dan betrayed his alliance!”
After Ying Cheng was silent for a few breaths, he said with emotion: "As expected of King Yan!"
"I admire you! I admire you!"
If these words were said by King Jian of Qi, Ying Cheng I am willing to believe it.
But King Xi of Yan was different from King Jian of Qi. When he was young, King Xi of Yan could also be described as a heroic figure. He basically took control of the Yan court within a few years of ascending the throne.
In the past twenty-two years since King Xi of Yan came to power, King Xi of Yan has continued to deepen his control over the country of Yan. He can depose both prime ministers and generals with a single word.
Ying Chengyu didn't believe that Yan Dan's various actions could be hidden from King Yan, nor did he believe that Yan Dan alone could arrange Tian Guang and Jing Ke, who were not good at lobbying, to become envoys, let alone Yan Dan. Being able to mobilize the army to attack the Qin army even if the King of Yan disagrees!
In Ying Chengyu’s view, all this may not have been led by King Yan, but it must have been connived by King Yan!
Now that the betrayal of the alliance failed to bring benefits to the Yan State, on the contrary, it brought the danger of destruction to the Yan State. However, King Xi of Yan did not hesitate to put all the blame on Yan Dan. What he picked himself was as clean as a white lotus.
Ying Chengxuan had already underestimated Yan Wangxi's moral bottom line as much as possible.
However, Yan Wangxi’s shamelessness still far exceeded Ying Chengyu’s expectation!
Qi Bao heard the sarcasm in Ying Chengxuan's voice, but did not dare to defend Yan Wangxi. He just waved behind him.
A servant held a wooden box in his hand and walked to a place two feet in front of Ying Chengyu. The eight masters and the hexagram masters immediately became vigilant and immediately stood on the left and right sides of Ying Chengyu.
Ying Chengyu sneered and asked, "Does Qi Shangqing want to recreate the old story of Prince Yan Dan?"
Qi Bao shook his head and opened the wooden box with his own hands. , said in a deep voice: "Prince Dan not only ruined the reputation of my Dayan, but also betrayed my allies of Dayan!"
"Prince Dan is deeply ashamed of his shameless behavior towards Yan, his treachery, his disobedience to the king's orders, and his sins."
"Therefore, he committed suicide in the camp and died to apologize!"
" In accordance with the legacy of Prince Dan, I will give the head of Prince Pill to the State of Qin in order to calm the anger of the State of Qin."
Looking at the particularly familiar head in the wooden box, Ying Chengyu's pupils slowly opened. Da, his eyes were full of disbelief.
Unconsciously, he took two steps forward and took Yan Dan's head out of the wooden box by his hair. Ying Chengyu turned over and over to identify it and finally confirmed that the head indeed belonged to Yan Dan!
Looking at Qi Bao in shock, Ying Chengyu asked in silence: "King Yan killed Prince Dan of Yan?!"
Although "Historical Records" records that King Yan beheaded Yan Dan's head and gave it to Qin, but Ying Chengyu didn't quite believe this record.
As a king of a country, he cuts off the head of his prince in order to seek peace. Even if this move can bring peace, it will definitely cause the country's morale to plummet, and defeat is inevitable!
Compared with the statement that Yan Dan was killed by King Xi of Yan, Ying Chengyu is more willing to believe the other two records also from "Historical Records", that is, Yan Dan and Li Xin fought in Yanshui and were defeated and killed. Or maybe Yan Dan and Wang Jian fought in Jicheng and were defeated and killed.
Ying Chengyu never expected that the possibility that he thought was the most unbelievable would actually appear in front of him!
Ying Chengyu never expected that the results he was determined to achieve through a desperate and bloody battle would be delivered to Ying Chengyu by the Yan State!
Qibao increased his voice and said firmly: "My king never ordered the death of my Prince Dayan."
"Prince Dan just felt that he had no face to face the world, so he committed suicide."< br>
Ying Chengyu didn’t believe Qi Bao’s words at all!
Can a man who abandoned 120,000 soldiers in order to escape suddenly wake up and kill himself after joining forces with reinforcements?
No kidding!
But Ying Chengyu didn’t care how Yan Dan died.
Looking at Yan Dan's dead head again, Ying Chengyu asked in a rather complicated voice: "The State of Yan has sent such a heavy gift."
"What do you want?"< br>
Qi Bao accompanied Xin and said: "The culprit responsible for the breakdown of the Qin-Yan covenant has committed suicide by committing suicide."
"Today Qin, Yan, and Dai are all exhausted, and the people are in great hardship due to years of war."
"My king hopes to reconcile with Qin, stop the war, and bring peace to the people of the world."
"I also ask Qin Changanjun not to take up the post of stationed in Yanxing and return to Xianyang."
Finally!
This time it is no longer Ying Chengyu who takes the initiative to ask for peace, but other countries requesting peace from Ying Chengyu!
Ying Chengyu threw Yan Dan's head back into the wooden box, handed it to the hexagram master for preservation, and then said quietly: "The major affairs of the country cannot be decided by just one word of this general."
"If you want the Qin Dynasty to withdraw its troops, Just being the head of the Prince of Yan is not enough!"
Qi Bao felt bitter and said sincerely: "After all, it was the misunderstanding caused by me, the Prince of Yan, who came to the expedition to trouble Qin Chang'an."
“I, the Great Yan, would like to give Qin five hundred thousand stones of grain as an apology!”
Ying Chengyu raised his eyebrows: “I want to give away five hundred thousand stones of grain. Will?”
"Previously, I led an army of 20,000 to Qi to fight, but Qi State gave Qin a million stones of grain as a thank you gift!"
"The King of Yan wants to humiliate me!"
Qi Bao He kept saying: "My king has no such intention!"
"It's just that Lord Chang'an of Qin has developed the technique of gold juice to treat excrement, and the Qin country will no longer be short of food and grass in a few years."
< br>"On the other hand, most of the territory of Yan State is barren and it is short of food. It really cannot be as generous as Qi State!"
Ying Chengxuan said quietly: "What does this general have to do with the Yan State when he develops the technique of gold juice to treat excrement?"
"What does the Yan State have to do with the lack of food?"
"If you want to sue for peace, then show your sincerity!"
Qibao had no choice but to change his perspective and said: "I, Dayan, gave Qin Liang 500,000 stones to apologize for the betrayal of my prince, Dayan."< br>
“Qi’s gift of one million stones of grain to Qin was to ask Qin Chang’an to help Qi in the expedition. Yan and Qi’s requests were different, so naturally they cannot be the same.”
"It will be beneficial to both Qin and Yan to stop fighting."
"The Qin State is in urgent need of recuperation and recuperation, and it is unlikely that it will be able to support Lord Qin Chang'an in continuing his conquest!"
"It is better to return the favor. There is peace in the world!"
Ying Chengqiu smiled and shook his head: "The war between Qin and Yan was initiated by the Yan State, and now Yan State is saying that it is better to restore peace to the world?"
"How ridiculous!"
"What do you think of war in the Yan Kingdom!"
"Since Qi Shangqing insists on asking for peace with only 500,000 stones of food and grass, then I would rather go to Jicheng and discuss with the King of Yan directly. Stop the troops!"
After a pause, Ying Chengyu said with a half-smile: "As for our army's food and grass, I won't bother you."
"I will. I believe that the food and grass in Jicheng is enough for our army to return to Xianyang City!"
Qibao shouted in surprise: "Please think again, Lord Qin Chang'an!"
Ying Chengyu ignored Qi Bao, and just turned around and ordered: "Eight husband, you personally join the army."
"Please come to our army, Lord Wu An. I will have a good discussion with Lord Wu An." , how to fight this battle!”
You want to put all the responsibility on Yan Dan, hand over Yan Dan’s head and get away with it?
Dream!
If Yan Dan wants to be killed, King Yan will never be happy!
