After saying this, Xiao Yuan was also a little tired, and couldn't help but stand up and stretch: "Let's go with this king." ”

"Wechen is very honored." Jia You hurriedly said.

The two of them walked out of the hall and began to stroll around the Yanzhou County Guard's Mansion.

This place is very large, and within the range where Xiao Yuan is located, there are three steps and one post, five steps and one sentry, and you can see long halberd guards with straight waists everywhere.

He strolled forward, looking at his surroundings for a while, and then observing the little insects on the leaves beside him with great interest, and said:

"In this war, to be honest, this king has been shaken in his heart, and even had the idea of retiring from the army, if it weren't for you and Shangguan Wenruo, the result would not be like this."

"Weichen is panicking, it's all in the king's wise decision." Jia You followed behind him and bowed slightly.

Xiao Yuan smiled and said: "In the final analysis, if we can persevere, it is not a matter of Qin Liang's troops, or it is Xuanguo, this time, King Xuan has helped a lot, if it is not for the Xuan army to cross the Xiangshui, our army will be forced to return to the division." ”

"Yes, Qin-Xuan relations, the king should handle it properly, my country needs this potential ally very much now." Jia Yu returned.

Xiao Yuan nodded: "After the matter here is dealt with, Qin Guo will thank Xuanguo for this matter." ”

As he spoke, he seemed to remember something: "By the way, what does Master Jia think about the future governance of the north?" ”

Jia You thought for a while and said: "The previous policy of Liangguo was the most harsh among the nations, and in recent years, it has increased taxes a lot, and the people are overwhelmed. ”

"In terms of Qin's policy of benefiting the people, once it is implemented in Liangdi, the effect is conceivable."

"Just like Jinling County, it is very stable now, and the people have not had any dissatisfaction because of the change of king, but their lives are better than before."

"If the king is based on the hearts of the people, then the cold land can be cured."

Several important civil officials under Xiao Yuan almost unanimously recommended that he value the people.

Especially Liu Yuzhi, he often nagged in his ear: The king, the people, the foundation of the country......

Xiao Yuan values Jia You very much, and during his walk, he talked about a lot of topics, and it is not difficult to see that he has regarded Jia You as a close minister.

The next morning, Xiao Yuan had just gathered the generals and arranged some things, when a sergeant came to report, saying that Huan Shuai Sun Qi asked to see him.

For the arrival of Huan Guo, he expected it.

Receiving Sun Qi in the hall of the county government, the latter naturally bowed his hand first: "I have seen His Royal Highness the King of Qin." ”

"The general doesn't have to be polite." Xiao Yuan stretched out his hand, waiting for him to make his intentions clear.

On the left and right of the hall, there were still some Qin army generals.

After Sun Qi straightened up, he first smiled, and then went straight to the point: "Today, His Highness has conquered Liangdu, except for a few places, Liangguo can be said to have perished, and I don't know what His Highness plans to do after Qin Huan's war." ”

Knowing that he was going to say this, Xiao Yuan did not answer directly, but asked rhetorically: "In the general's opinion?" ”

Sun Qi said: "Before that, I want to say that if it weren't for the Huan army to participate in the war, it would be impossible for the Liang army to retreat to Yanzhou, and today, His Royal Highness may still be anxious about the Youzhou defense line." ”

"This is the first, and second, the westward advance of our Huan army has put huge military pressure on the Liang State, making it and your army turn sharply from the stalemate stage to a crisis of retreat."

"Third, on the Yanzhou front, if it weren't for our army's secret cultivation of the plank road, His Highness would not have been able to bypass Wutong and lay the final victory."

"These are all big war situations, in fact, the role of our army in the entire battlefield is far more than these, to sum up, His Royal Highness should be judged by his military merits."

He said so much that he wanted nothing more than to use it as a bargaining chip before the negotiations.

But before Xiao Yuan could speak, Xu Hu couldn't help it, and said in a muffled voice: "General Sun's general Huan Jun said so well, let me ask, if it weren't for our army, in the frontal battlefield, fighting fiercely with almost all the troops of the Liang army, how would the Huan army advance west?" How to take the city lightly? ”

"What the general said, I agree with it, but in the same way, the two armies of Qin Huan are indispensable." Sun Qi did not defend either.

Xu Hu said again: "The general said that it was a secret plank road, so at the beginning, why didn't he lead the troops to attack Wutong, not that he was worried that he would not be able to withstand the onslaught of Yanzhou, according to this, the vicious battle was all fought by the soldiers of my Qin army, what does it have to do with the Huan army!" ”

"General Xu's words are wrong." Sun Qi said unhurriedly: "Our Huan army has more than 100,000 people, and they have been stationed outside Yanzhou, and the role they play is undoubted, just like in the end, if it weren't for our army here, would Xue Wu fall into a Jedi?" Will he surrender? I'm afraid he would have been killed in Youzhou a long time ago. I think everyone knows that. ”

"You ......" Xu Hu was a little anxious.

"Alright." Xiao Yuan raised his hand, looked at Sun Qi and said with a smile: "If Huan Jun has any requirements, just say it." ”

Hearing this, Sun first rolled his eyes, and then said directly: "The eastern half of the Liang Kingdom." ”

After the destruction of Jin and Yan, there were more than a dozen counties in the territory of Liangguo, and in the eastern half, there were six or seven counties.

Among them, some places, including Dingzhou and Ruyang, have been occupied by the Huan State, but there are still three places that have not been recovered.

Sun Qi's meaning is very clear, he wants these three places.

After Xiao Yuan heard this, he didn't answer immediately.

Xu Hu hurriedly said: "How is this possible! The battle against Liang, the soldiers of our army, the bloody battlefield! How much blood was spilled! to get back the victory you have now! What did you Huan Jun do? Open your mouth is the eastern half! ”

Sun Qi smiled and said: "The battle of extinguishing the Liang, the Huan army participated in the war, this is a fact, it played a decisive role on the battlefield, this is also a fact, if the Qin State, after the end of the war, does not ask about the merits of the friendly army, but only thinks about their own land, then dare to ask His Highness, after this, who will dare to conspire with the Qin State?" ”

"You!" Xu Hu was in a hurry.

Jia You shook his head secretly, from this point of view, it is really not easy to fight.

If you don't tell Huan Guo about this, people will definitely say that you have laid down your territory, regardless of the friendly army, you will swallow it all by yourself, and in the future, who will dare to form an alliance with Qin State.

You can reason with him about this, Sun Qi is clever and clever, talking about how the Huan army is, and the lion opened his mouth.

Xiao Yuan also shook his head secretly, then looked at Sun Qi, and said quietly: "What the general said, can he represent King Huan?" ”

Unexpectedly, he suddenly said this, Sun was stunned at first, and then said: "I came here for Huan to divide the land, why should Your Highness ask this." ”

"I don't think so." Xiao Yuan said: "The conditions that the general said, this king can agree, but in my opinion, your own situation is probably a little bad." ”
