Chapter 1421: Good Things Come in Pairs
PS: Thank you for the monthly ticket voted by the book friend "talin".
The people present, none of them were fuel-efficient lamps, and they would not doubt the amazing news that Wu Zheng threw out at this time.
Because any result of this negotiation will not be counted after the information has been falsified.
Who has nothing to do when they are full and tells such a lie?
They naturally heard Wu Zheng's words, and at this moment, there was a trace of horror in their eyes when they looked at Wu Zheng, as if they had seen a demon.
Sonny hurriedly got up and pulled Rasuk Saha's sleeve, signaling him not to be ashamed anymore.
Then, in a dry tone, he said to Wu: "King Wu's methods are really clever, and he has already sent Xizuo to Fengyang to surrender at the time of the Xuzhou War...... However, even if this is the case, if the army under Prince Ying is really annihilated, I am afraid that the entire Fengyang Mansion and millions of people will be buried for it...... King Wu, that's millions of Han people, can you bear it? ”
Wu Zheng's face suddenly turned cold, he forgot that the Tartar dog can't change his nature of eating!
Wu Zhenghuo got up, raised his finger and slowly pointed around, "But if Fengyang dies an innocent person, the full people should be compensated ten times, don't say that this king is unpredictable!" ”
No one dares to mention "jade and stone burning" and so on, they can disrespect the Han people, but they must respect the person behind the Han people at this time.
The negotiations have fallen into an extremely dull atmosphere, but they are still moving forward with difficulty. It is not that the two sides are not sincere, but that what they have come into contact with is the core interests of both sides.
It was not until the seventh day of the negotiation that a conclusion was finally reached on the ownership of Xuzhou and Haizhou, but there was a great difference in the ownership of Fengyang Mansion.
According to Wu Zheng's meaning, the actual line of control is used to determine the ownership, of course, this is unlikely, Wu Zheng just expressed his own attitude, in fact, even Huang Zongxi and Gu Yanwu only proposed to put the east and south of Sizhou, which belonged to Fengyang Prefecture, under the control of the Yixing Dynasty, on the grounds that the Weiguo Gong Xia Wanchun Department and Liao Zhongping's left battalion had effectively controlled Chuzhou, and the soldiers had reached Xuyi.
But the Qing envoys resolutely did not agree, their reason was that if Sizhou returned to the Yixing Dynasty, then Fengyang City would be placed under the Ming army, Fengyang City was not protected, where was Fengyang Mansion?
While this difficult negotiation dragged on for a long time, Wu Zheng couldn't wait.
The main force of the combined fleet of the Fanguo Kingdom has appeared in Hangzhou Bay, and has shelled Zhapu and Luopu two places, causing dozens of military and civilian casualties, and it is only a few hundred miles away from Hangzhou Prefecture.
Therefore, at the very beginning of the negotiations on the eighth day, Wu Zheng solemnly stated that this was the last day of the talks, and if it was successful, it would be completed, and if it did not, the meeting would be adjourned indefinitely.
The two sides could cease fighting along the Line of Actual Control, but it would not have the force of agreement, which meant that they could resume fighting if they wanted to.
As a result, the results of this day were far greater than all the previous seven days combined.
The Yixing Dynasty gave up its claims to Sizhou and Xuyi in exchange for the Qing court's recognition of the Yixing Dynasty's occupation of Chuzhou and Hezhou.
The Qing side gave up their claims to Yangzhou and Huai'an in exchange for the smooth return of more than 10,000 troops from Yangzhou to Fengyang Mansion and rendezvous with the Azig army.
However, the war horses ridden by the Qing Dynasty in Yangzhou Prefecture were intercepted as compensation for the Northern Expeditionary Army, and the number was as high as seven or eight thousand, even in the north, it was a strategic material worth more than one million taels.
The Qing side recognized Haizhou as under the control of the Northern Expeditionary Army in exchange for the withdrawal of the Northern Expeditionary Army from Xuzhou Mansion to Huai'an Mansion, and of course, had to pay a ransom of 8 million taels.
But in the end, there is one more thing that the two sides cannot agree on, and that is the issue of prisoner exchange between the two sides of the war.
In fact, the casualties of the Northern Expeditionary Army in this battle were also huge, as high as more than 20,000 people, but the number of prisoners was only more than 2,000 people, on the other hand, the Qing army, that was simply not an order of magnitude, excluding the surrendered army that had been attached, such as Huai'an Erwei, Fengyang Erwei, Zu Dabi, etc., the number of prisoners was as high as more than 23,000.
How to change? You can't exchange more than 23,000 people for more than 2,000 people, so Wu Zheng threw out his old trick - redemption.
However, this time, Qing Fang did not agree. In fact, the "price" offered by Wu Zheng is not high, whether it is a general or a soldier, packed, thirty taels a piece.
This price is indeed not high, compared to the price of seven or eight taels for a pig in the market at this time, it makes sense, the total is only about 700,000 taels of ransom.
But the Qing side never agreed, and their reason was that these people were not worth the price, because most of them were Han Chinese.
Wu Zheng didn't want to delay any longer, so he solved the north and rushed to Hangzhou, so he thought that would be it, and let the Qing court take advantage of the "cheapness".
But at this time, a thunderous news shocked everyone on both sides of the negotiation field. Including Wu Zheng.
……。
Wu Zheng thought that he had changed history.
Even because of this, they fall into the uncertainty of the future, always thinking that the changed history will change in an unknowable direction, triggering countless unpredictable things to "punish" their own changes to history.
However, Wu Zheng now knows that history is still trying its best to maintain its existing inertia.
The historical facts of Li Dingguo's two famous kings are still staged.
Four months ago, Li Dingguo was crowned king of Jin, and with the support of Emperor Yongli, he led 80,000 cavalry, 6,000 musketeers and more than 100 elephant soldiers to attack northward.
In 40 days, Liankeyuan, Jing, and Wugang prefectures destroyed more than 10,000 enemies.
Shen Yongzhong, the general of the Qing Dynasty who guarded Baoqing, was intimidated by the strength of the Great Western Army and hurriedly appealed to Kong Youde, who was rescued from Guilin.
However, Li Dingguo rushed to aid the enemy, crossed the river from Fengmuling and took Baoqing directly, and the surprise attack was successful, annihilating the main force of the Qing army reinforcements of more than 6,000 people.
After that, Li Dingguo sent troops to Qiyang, preparing to seize Quanzhou, the gateway to Guangxi, in order to eliminate the Kong Youde Department in Guilin.
His troops were divided into three routes, led by Feng Shuangli to take Quanzhou on the left, Zhang Sheng led the right road to attack Yanguan, and personally led all the way to attack the outlying strongholds of Guilin. Feng Shuangli led the left road to quickly conquer Quanzhou, and Li Dingguo, after learning of the great victory, immediately made a decision and ordered the troops not to enter Quanzhou, and advanced with his own troops and stationed in Yanguan.
Yanguan is located to the north of Guilin, and seizing it will choke the passage of Guilin, which is really a strategic location.
The Qing army was naturally unwilling to be choked in the throat, and came to fight for the strict pass, but the Great Western Army had sufficient troops and resisted bravely, and the two sides fought for several days, each with victory and defeat, and countless casualties.
Seeing that Yan Guan had become a flesh mill that must be contested, Kong Youde led the elite to assist.
However, as soon as Kong Youde led the army to the vicinity of Yanguan, before the two armies came into contact, the war elephant team of the Great Western Army rushed towards him.
For a while, they were all frightened, the rider could not control the war horse, and was instantly shattered by the elephant soldiers, and Kong Youde was defeated and fled.
