Chapter 682: Peace Talks
Emperor Xiqin's voice was filled with melancholy and irritation. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
As an emperor, there are probably two sentences that I hate the most, one is that the general will not be subject to the life of the monarch outside, and the other sentence is probably that the emperor is far away.
Even as far as the ends of the earth, his words are still holy decrees!
The prince of Western Qin thought for a while and said, "Why don't you go to the border to announce the decree?" ”
Master Meng said, "I'm just afraid that it's not appropriate, if General Zeng is really killed, it will be too dangerous for the prince to go." ”
Prince Xiqin glanced at Lord Meng and said with a smile, "Lord Meng is afraid that I am in danger?" ”
If something happens to him, isn't it what he wants?
It is true that Lord Meng does not want the prince of Western Qin to have a good time, but the matter of the border pass cannot be delayed, there is no time to delay, and it must be ensured that nothing goes wrong.
Lord Meng knelt down and begged the emperor, and said, "Your Majesty, the wolf son of the Eastern Qi has the ambition to form an alliance with my Western Qin, but he just wants to use my Western Qin to help him seize the rivers and mountains of the Ning Dynasty, but I am afraid that I still want to swallow my Western Qin, Your Majesty, you will order a truce." ”
Emperor Xiqin didn't want to fight it either, but he was unwilling, "What about the three cities that the Ning Dynasty took away, don't you take them back?" ”
Master Meng has the heart to die headlong, he has been an official in front of the palace for many years, he knows the emperor's temperament very well, and he is unwilling to suffer, but this battle was fought by them in Western Qin first.
Although it was because of the framing of Western Qin, there is no conclusive evidence until now, is it?
If you want to recover the three lost cities, you are afraid that you will end up losing a big one.
Emperor Xiqin was unwilling, he said, "In Aiqing's opinion, is it possible for me to be a fisherman in Xiqin?" ”
Lord Meng looked at the emperor and said, "Your Majesty, the minister is a civil minister, and he only knows the surface of war, so you can ask the prince." ”
Emperor Xiqin looked at his son again, and the prince of Western Qin shook his head, "It's difficult, neither the Eastern Qi nor the Ning Dynasty are stupid people, and they won't give us a chance." ”
The Western Qin Emperor was discouraged.
But for such a thing as a truce, it is far from enough to discuss it with the crown prince and Lord Meng.
The Emperor of Western Qin convened the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty and discussed the poisoning of Empress Xiqin for two hours.
In the end, the minority obeyed the majority, and the Western Qin and Ning dynasties made peace.
This important task was handed over to the prince and Lord Meng to discuss.
Then, the two set off together to the border gate.
It was also lucky, in the past seven days after hanging up the war-free card, General Zeng was really impatient, and when he decided to go his own way, it was raining.
The heavy rain was pouring down, and the Western Qin general was asked to wait for the rain to stop before fighting.
What can General Zeng do, the sky is not beautiful, so he can only wait for the rain to stop.
But this rain rained for three whole days.
The Western Qin military camp was stationed in a low-lying terrain, and the rain poured into the valley, almost not flooding the military camp, not to mention the fight, brave the rain, and the Western Qin soldiers retreated ten miles.
As soon as the unlucky people left, the landslide blocked the way forward, and if the road was not dug up, the army would not think about going over.
After the rain stopped, the soldiers dug up the collapsed earth, the place was narrow, easy to defend and difficult to attack, blocked by the mud, and only a few hundred soldiers could dig it, and the others could only watch, swarming up, and could only help.
Hundreds of people dig in shifts.
In the big tent of the Ning Dynasty, there was nothing to do, and Chu Ang was in a hurry to eat the barbecue among the generals.
A general shook Chu Ang, "The thirteenth young master's plan is absolutely amazing, taking advantage of the rain and thunder, he blew up the mountain, blocking the way of Western Qin's attack, that place is full of stones, it is difficult to move, it can only be chiseled, there are no three or five days, don't think about attacking." ”
Chu Ang brushed the barbecue with sauce, shook his head and said, "It's not a good strategy, it's all forced." ”
That place was almost bombed, it was recorded in the war book, if he hadn't come, I don't know who came up with the idea to blow up the mountain?
Grandfather?
It's not going to be a grandmother, is it?
But now, the credit is his!
Such a righteous and bright robbery, no one is unlucky to be robbed, and the feeling of being worshiped is really cool!
He's going to treat himself to grilling a few more skewers of meat.
Three days later, the Western Qin soldiers moved the fallen mountain away and approached the city again.
After cultivating for so many days, let's start fighting if you want to.
The gunpowder has been moved to the city gate, and the bows and arrows are ready, just waiting for the war drums to beat and fight with the Western Qin.
However, this battle did not start in the end.
The prince of Western Qin and Lord Meng hurried to the border pass.
The prince of Western Qin rode on horseback, majestic, and Lord Meng was not good, and the Wenchen, who had no power to restrain the chicken, was still a lot old, although he was in a carriage, he could run fast, and he only felt that his bones were bumped and scattered.
The prince of Western Qin went directly to the city gate, took out the holy decree, and asked General Zeng to receive the decree.
General Zeng's eyes were ruthless and did not move.
The prince of Western Qin shouted again, and said with a smile, "Is my cousin planning to be disrespectful to the emperor in front of the soldiers of the three armies?" ”
General Zeng gritted his teeth and knelt down.
The corners of the prince's mouth were hooked and the holy decree was read.
The emperor ordered the troops to retreat, and everything was decided after he and Ning Chao had discussed whether to fight or not, and Lord Meng had the right to supervise the discussion.
The holy decree read in front of so many soldiers, did General Zeng dare not accept the decree?
If you don't accept the order, you will resist the order, and that will punish the nine clans.
Moreover, the officers and men in the army all knew that General Zeng had a good relationship with the prince and was the prince's right-hand man, so he had no choice.
Lord Meng walked under the city gate, looked up at Chu Muyuan and said, "Please also ask General Ning Chao to go out of the city to talk in detail." ”
It's a quick time, otherwise I don't know how many people will die.
Chu Muyuan was about to go down to the city gate, but a general blocked him and said, "Could it be a conspiracy of Western Qin?" ”
Chu Muyuan shook his head, "I believe that Master Meng, don't act rashly." ”
Chu Muyuan and Chu Ang, as well as four generals, as well as Qin Feng and other secret guards, all went down to the city gate.
When they came down, Lord Meng knew the attitude of the Ning Dynasty, they were not belligerents, and there was hope for peace talks.
Chu Ang asked people to move the table, and sat down at the city gate to drink tea and discuss, of course, knowing that Chu Ang likes to eat fruits, he specially brought a plate.
Chu Ang sat aside and nibbled on fruit.
Chu Ang glanced at General Zeng in the distance, and said with a smile, "It seems that you believe that General Zeng is fake, why didn't you give him a glass of poisonous wine by the way, in front of the officers and soldiers of the three armies, I don't think he dared not drink it." ”
The prince of Western Qin glanced at Chu Ang, his words were light, he dared to pretend to be General Zeng, could he be an ordinary person?
In case a sentence comes, I drink with the prince, can he refuse?
Master Meng said, "I, Western Qin and the Ning Dynasty, started a war, completely misled by Eastern Qi, the wolf ambition of Eastern Qi, Prince Xuan and the princess know very well, if it weren't for her, our Western Qin would still be kept in the dark." ”
Chu Muyuan raised his eyebrows, "Xi Qin and my Ning Dynasty have been fighting for so long, and a sentence has been kept in the dark, does Lord Meng think that the soldiers of my Ning Dynasty will agree?" ”
Master Meng was dumbfounded, looking at the Prince of Western Qin, he didn't know how to talk about it.
