Chapter 171: Peace Talks

When Yang Marquis Jia Yi was above the court, he had always been cautious in his words and deeds, and rarely said anything, but every time he opened his mouth, no one in the Manchu Dynasty dared to despise it.

Solid this, Jia Yiyan fully agreed with Chao Cuo's words, at this time can not start a war with the Xiongnu, even if it is the inextricable Dou Ying who is in dispute with Chao Cuo, he can't speak anymore when he hears this.

And when Luan Bu was about to get up again and say something, Yuan Ang on the side saw this situation, and immediately grabbed the corner of Luan Bu's clothes and whispered: "Yu Hou can't!" ”。

In this way, Luan Bu turned his head and glanced at Yuan An, and then he didn't say anything, so he had to straighten his clothes and sit down.

However, the main battle faction finished performing, but it was time for the main peace faction to appear.

I saw a doctor stern and said: "The minister thinks that the words of the imperial historian and the Marquis of Dangyang are very pertinent, and this is definitely not the time to fight with the Huns, so why not send envoys to the Huns and the Huns!" ”。

Although Chao Cuo and Jia Yi said that this was not the time to fight with the Xiongnu, they did not say that they would negotiate peace at this time.

However, the people of this courtier should have angered the main battle faction present, Chao Cuo and Jia Yi, one is the teacher of the Son of Heaven, ranking as the third duke, and the other is the teacher of the emperor's eldest son Liu Rong, and he is the courtier favored by His Majesty. In this case, these generals who are in charge of the main battle cannot easily offend them.

But Yan Qike is different, he is not a close minister of the Son of Heaven, and he has no foundation in the court, just a doctor, he originally wanted to show his face in front of His Majesty, and he may not be able to get the favor of His Majesty and be promoted one day.

But I didn't want to, but because of my own words, His Majesty hadn't said anything, Luan Bu couldn't sit still anymore, and suddenly got up and walked to the hall and said: "Peace talks!" Peace talks! Where are there so many peace talks! ”。

As early as seeing the beacon fire and wolf smoke of the Great Wall on Ganquan Mountain, Liu Qi, the son of heaven, began to think about how to deal with the invasion of the Huns.

However, although Liu Qi, the son of heaven, is a person who is not broad-minded and is more likely to hold grudges, he is not a timid person.

Although the internal worries of the Han princes and kings have been removed, this is not the time to fight with the Xiongnu.

Not to mention whether the Han army can win, as early as when he was in the Ganquan Palace, Liu Qi, the son of heaven, received a report from the servant, since the implementation of the horse government, the entire Han family from the courtiers, down to the merchants, and the commoners are all families to raise horses. Although this is the case, there are less than 80,000 horses that can be used as war horses at this time, so how can they equip cavalry to fight against the Xiongnu.

With such fierce combat power and maneuver speed of the Hun cavalry, sending foot soldiers to fight on the desert is simply equivalent to tying up one's own hands and feet and letting the Huns cut them down.

After thinking about it in this way, Liu Qi, the Son of Heaven, came up with the only method that might make the Xiongnu no longer attack the borderlands - Heqin.

"Wang Yan drafted an edict to pass on my summons, informing Yunzhong, King Wu, Beidi, Shangdang, the county guards of the land bordering the Xiongnu, as well as the garrisons along the Great Wall, to strengthen the city defenses, and never let the Xiongnu break through the pass."

"No!".

Then Liu Qi, the Son of Heaven, glanced at the courtiers present, and immediately said: "I am a little tired today, let's discuss it here for the time being."

The courtiers present had no choice but to say, "Congratulations to Your Majesty."

Out of the Xuanshu Palace, Luan Bu stepped forward to stop Jia Yi who was leaving, "When Wu Chu rebelled that day, the rebellion was able to succeed in only two months, thanks to the strange plan of Dangyang Hou.

But at this time, the Huns invaded the south, why did the Marquis of Dangyang say that His Majesty could not fight! ”。

When Jia Yi heard this, he smiled and said: "Marquis Yu, it's not that I don't want to say that Your Majesty is at war with the Xiongnu, and this is really not the time for war."

"Rotten!" After speaking, Luan Bu turned around and left angrily.

Luan Bu's temper has always been upright, otherwise he would not dare to risk the world's disapproval to collect Yingbu's body.

Before Wu Chu's rebellion, Dou Ying and Luan Bu had never been close friends.

But because of this Wu Chu rebellion, the two actually became close friends, so seeing Luan Bu talking like this, Dou Ying originally wanted to step forward to dissuade him, but before he could speak, Luan Bu left first.

Seeing such a situation, Dou Ying was also worried that Luan Bu would anger Jia Yi because of this.

When he was busy, he was a peacemaker, and he came to Jia Yizhi's side and said with a smile: "Don't blame Yang Hou, General Luan is also an old minister who fought the world with Emperor Gao back then, but he is too upright, and his words of talent are absolutely not malicious, but they are angry for a while."

"Haha, Wei Qihou doesn't have to be like this, I also know the temperament of Marquis Yu, how can I blame him for being such a loyal and upright minister."

Then Dou Ying saluted and said: "It's good if Yanghou is not to blame, it's good not to blame, and when Yanghou is free on another day, why don't you come to the lower mansion and drink together?" ”。

Jia Yi saluted and said: "Wei Qihou's words are very kind, and I hope that Wei Qihou will not be bothered by me."

…………………………………………………………:…………

And Liu Qi, the Son of Heaven, arrived in the Qilin Palace, but he did not rest, but was very troubled.

Today, I mentioned this matter in the court to test the intentions of the ministers, but I didn't want one side of the main battle to have the upper hand, but this was definitely not the time for war.

After sitting alone in the hall and thinking for a long time, Liu Qi, the son of heaven, ordered Wang Yan to summon Liu Rong to the Qilin Palace.

When he heard that his father summoned him, Liu Rong guessed that his father must have discussed the matter of the Huns with him.

"The son of the emperor to meet his father!".

"Rong'er is here, give a seat".

"Thank you, Emperor!".

However, Liu Qi, the son of heaven, was straight to the point and said: "Today, above the court, I asked the ministers how to deal with the Xiongnu's invasion of my Han realm, and many courtiers said, why Rong'er didn't say a word."

Liu Rong knows very well that it may be feasible to do anything by himself, but military power is something that he must not touch at this time, so Liu Rong should salute and say: "The father and the emperor forgive the sin, and the son does not know the matter of the battle array, how can he say it easily."

"I didn't ask you how to fight the Huns, but I just asked you to say that it was war or peace, just make it clear."

"No!" , Liu Rong stood up and walked to the hall.

"Since the siege of Emperor Gao Bai Deng, the Huns invaded our Han realm, there are nearly more than ten gifts, and the daily raids are as much as a cow's hair.

The heart of the retainers hated the Huns, and they hated them so much that they couldn't eat their flesh, drink their blood, cramp their tendons, and crush their bones and ashes! How can we not want our Han army to attack the Huns in the north to extinguish their arrogance, so as to promote the heavenly prestige of our Han Dynasty and the holy virtue of my father.

But back then, my grandfather once said to his sons that he wanted to fight with the Xiongnu, and with the national strength of my Han family at this time and the combat strength of the Han army, even if he could win, it would be difficult to deal a major blow to the Xiongnu, and it would make all the painstaking management of my Han family for generations in vain............

In this way, before there is no perfect plan, we must not easily start a war with the Xiongnu, otherwise it will be the people of the world who will suffer."

It seems a little inappropriate to answer my father's words one-sidedly, whether it is war or peace, so Liu Rong's words were said after careful consideration.

is to tell my father that it is not that he does not want to enter the court to fight with the Huns, but this is indeed not the time.

Liu Qi originally wanted to see if Liu Rong would be impulsive and wanted to fight the Xiongnu.

As a superior person, he can't be swayed by emotions, Liu Rong can look at this matter so calmly, in the eyes of Liu Qi, the son of heaven, Liu Rong has a calmness and determination that is completely inconsistent with his age.

Then Liu Qi, the Son of Heaven, said: "My son's heart, I have already understood, and my meaning is not the time to fight with the Huns."

Since he did not want to start a war with the Xiongnu, there was naturally only one way out and peace talks with the Xiongnu.

However, Liu Qi, the son of heaven, naturally knew the news from the Xiongnu side for a long time, and Liu Yan of the Xiongnu clan died of illness.

After Liu Rong left, Liu Qi, the son of heaven, got up and paced in the hall, "Do you want to send another daughter and relatives of the clan?"

Then Liu Qi, the Son of Heaven, began to go through the women of the right age in the Han family clan in his mind.

……………………………………………………………………

After receiving the call of the Son of Heaven, the garrisons along the border areas of the Han family and Chang'an were to strengthen the city defenses, and they laid heavy troops on the periphery of the city and the Great Wall to defend against the invasion of the Xiongnu.

After some persuasion from the Bank of China, Ran Yi Pheasant understood that it was not a beautiful mistake to attack the Han Dynasty with the order of Shan Yu.

In this way, of course, Yi Pheasant is trying to save his 80,000 elite cavalry first, and the troops sent to attack and disturb are all old and weak soldiers.

And after several raids, these Han Dynasty generals also discovered the shortcomings of the Huns.

The Xiongnu lived far away in the desert, and when it came to cavalry battles, cattle and sheep herding, the Han Dynasty people were naturally far behind.

However, the civilization of the Huns was very backward, and they did not know how to mine copper and iron ore at all, and forge weapons and arrows.

The Xiongnu were able to rise smoothly back then, thanks to the items left behind by the Great Wall Corps of Mengtian.

Solidly, as soon as the Huns approached the city, there would be a rain of arrows in the sky.

There were not many people sent by Yi Pheasant to attack and disturb, and under the attack of this rain of arrows, the Hun cavalry was also very damaged.

When Yi Pheasant heard the report, Yi Pheasant thought of a more vicious method, finding some Han slaves and forcing them to rush ahead of the Huns.

Seeing these people in Han clothes rushing over, the Han soldiers on the top of the city tower were really at a loss.

Hearing this, Li Guang personally climbed to the entrance of the city and grabbed the bow in the hands of the soldiers on the side, and shot it with an arrow.

Throwing the bow in his hand aside, he saw Li Guang is angry and said: "Those who are not soldiers must not have the kindness of women, and Your Majesty's order is to let us hold the city in the clouds." If they can't hold it, there will be more people slaughtered by the Huns, and no matter who is attacking in front of you, you must shoot them! ”。

"No!" , all the people present said.

Li Guang's resoluteness made Yi Pheasant a little unknown, "The Han Dynasty has this Taishou, which is definitely not the luck of my Huns."

Then he asked the servant on the side, "Can you inquire clearly, who is the new Taishou in the clouds?" ”。

"Report to the right virtuous king, this person's name is Li Guang."

Yi Pheasant said resentfully: "Li Guang, this king remembers this name, in the coming day, this king will personally cut off the head of Li Guangzhi, the Taishou in the clouds, to make a wine vessel!" ”。

However, defense is defense, and Liu Qi, the son of heaven, still sent someone who had nothing to talk to about the Xiongnu, and he was still Li Xin, who was ordered by Emperor Wen to envoy the Xiongnu and make peace with the Xiongnu.

After running all the way and traveling for many days, Li Xin and his party finally found the location of the court of the king of the Huns.

As soon as he saw the military minister Shan Yu, Li Xin saluted and said: "I am ordered by the Emperor of the Han Dynasty to ask Shan Yu'an."

Shan Yuyan, a military minister sitting on the throne, said: "Why is the Han envoy here? ”。

Li Xin said again: "Naturally, it is for the harmony between the Han and the Huns, and a few years ago, the first emperor of our dynasty also sent the princess of my Han family to marry the Huns, and made a brotherly alliance with Shan Yu. I don't want to let the Hun cavalry attack the border of my Han family at this time, how can this be a brother? ”。

However, before the military minister Shan Yu could speak, the Bank of China said: "Which of the princesses sent by the Han Dynasty is the blood of the emperor?"

They are all the daughters of your Han Dynasty clan or the women in the harem, and they will be sent to me in the name of the princess to be friendly with my big-breasted slave, so I have never seen the sincerity of the peace talks in the Han Dynasty! ”。
