Chapter 347, Harmony is Precious 4
At this time, Ziyi did not have any official position, and Fan Ju handed over to him the 3,000 people he recruited in Huayin City, including his general Li Congzhou, these 3,000 people were clearly Fan Ju's subordinates, but in fact they were commanded by Ziyi, and others couldn't say anything. γLatest chapter reading. γ
Since Ziyi came out of Xi'an and came to Tongguan, his heart has become relaxed. His life is assured, and he no longer has to worry about it. Within a few days, Su Dan also got out of Xi'an City and came to Tongguan, and in this way, his two right-hand men, Su Dan and Li Congzhou, both returned to him.
Fan Ju found all three of them, because although there were many people and generals in Tongguan, when it came to henchmen, there were still a few of them.
Ziyi looked at the holy decree and frowned: "Fan Xiang, is it possible to negotiate peace with Qin Jun?" As far as I know, the King of Qin is not an ordinary person, before the Six Kingdoms were destroyed, he looked at the world and regarded everyone as servants. If he is asked to accept the appointment of the court, whether it is a duke or a prince, I don't think he will agree. β
Fan Ju smiled: "This is not necessarily. Although the Qin army won a big victory, its overall strength was still much worse than that of the official army. Moreover, after this battle, the losses of the Qin army must not be small. Killing 10,000 people, self-loss of 3,000, the Qin army originally had 20,000 horses, plus Bai Qi, at most 30,000, after a battle, even killed and wounded, I am afraid the loss should be about 10,000. At this time, I believe that Qin Jun also wants to take a breath. β
Ziyi shook his head lightly: "King Qin has not bowed his head to anyone since he became an adult." Although 2,000 years have passed, this temper has not changed. I don't think it works. β
Su Dan said: "You might as well try it first, send someone to talk about it, listen to King Qin's tone, and then make a calculation." β
Fan Ju said: "Yes, the Qin State dominates the world, relying not only on being brave and good at fighting, but also on the Qin people, when and what kind of strategy to adopt, and they are not stubborn. When it was time to make peace, the Qin people even offered their land to sue for peace, and among them, the debaters led by Zhang Yi understood this truth best. β
Su Dan smiled: "It seems that we have to send someone to talk to Zhang Yi first." β
Fan Ju also smiled: "That's right. As long as Zhang Yi agrees, he will convince King Qin, even if he doesn't agree, we can also probe the tone. β
Ziyi sighed: "Okay, but who is going to go?" I came out naked, and the Qin soldiers didn't bring any of them. There is no such person around Fan Ju. Fan Ju said: "You don't need the Qin people to go, there is one person who can use it." Ziyi said: "Who is this person?" β
Fan Ju said: "This person's surname is Gu Mingtong, and he is Xiong Wencan's guest at the scene. β
Ziyi was stunned: "Xiong Wencan's person? Fan Ju said: "This is the person who surrendered the shooting for Xiong Wencan, can speak well, and can act at the opportunity, he is a smart person." Ziyi said: "Xiong Wencan's people, can they be used by us?" β
Fan Ju said with a smile: "Xiong Wencan came to Guanzhong and brought him with him, I knew that this person was smart early on, so I deliberately approached him a few times, and my impression of each other was not bad." Xiong Wencan was dismissed and questioned, Gu Tong lost his master, and he was afraid of being sat down, so he wanted to roll up and leave a few days ago, but I kept him, and Gu Tong saw that I had the intention of retaining, and immediately regarded me as the new master and swore allegiance. β
Ziyi snorted: "The old master has just lost power, and he immediately joined others, and he is also a wise man who protects himself and forgets his righteousness." β
Fan Ju said: "Yes, but now, we are using this person." β
Ziyi groaned: "You sent him to Guanzhong, aren't you afraid that he will take the opportunity to join the Qin army?" β
Fan Ju smiled: "He won't vote for the Qin army, the power of the Qin army is still very small after all, people like Gu Tong always defect to the strong, if one day, the Qin army becomes strong, he may never go back, for now, don't worry." β
Everyone has decided, and Fan Ju invited Gu Tong to meet alone.
As soon as Gu Tong saw Fan Ju, he immediately knelt down and saluted, doing his best to be courteous. Fan Ju invited him to sit down and said, "Mr. Gu, Xiong Wencan was dismissed and investigated, this is the emperor's will, and the saint is lenient, and all the blame is borne by Xiong Wencan alone, Mr. Don't worry." β
Gu Tong was very smart, and immediately gave a salute: "This is also the result of the adult's thoughtfulness, the villain knows it well, and he is grateful." In the future, if there is a villain, go to the soup and go to the fire, and then do not give up. β
The two of them looked at each other, and everyone was smart, so they both opened the skylight and said something.
Fan Ju did not hide it: "Please invite Mr. to come today, there is something I want to entrust to Mr. Yu." Gu Tong hurriedly said: "The villain listens." Fan Ju told the emperor that he wanted to negotiate peace with the Qin army. Gu Tong smiled when he heard this: "My lord, you are from the Qin army, and the Qin army hates you to the bone, so in this matter, you must not let the adults come forward, and you must not let General Ziyi and others show up, so it is most suitable for the villain to go." β
Fan Ju nodded: "King Qin has always been ambitious and arrogant, but the court also needs to save face, and he can't take the initiative to make peace with the Qin army, so I will send you to contact you first to probe the tone of the Qin army, if the Qin army also intends to negotiate peace, let's continue to discuss." β
Gu Tong said: "The villain has no position, how can he see that King Qin?" β
Fan Ju smiled and said: "You don't need to see the King of Qin first, see Zhang Yi first, and make it clear to him, if Zhang Yi has the heart to make peace, he will inevitably lead you to see the King of Qin, if the King of Qin also agrees to the peace talks, at this time, if you come back, I will write to the court, seal you a position, and then go to the Qin army in a grand manner." β
Gu Tong nodded again and again: "In this way, the villain will leave tomorrow." β
The next day, Gu Tong packed up, took a few soldiers, dressed in civilian clothes, and went to Xi'an.
At this time, the city of Xi'an was a scene of the rest of his life after the war.
Since the end of this war, Bai Qi returned to the Weinan camp, helped Li Yan count all the food and materials, and pulled them back to Xi'an, although the materials of the Weinan camp were somewhat damaged, but more than half of them were still preserved, the things in it were dizzying, roughly calculated, a total of nearly 100,000 grains, nearly 30,000 sets of clothing, 20,000 cotton cloths, more than 3,000 horses, tens of thousands of weapons, in addition to 10,000 catties of gunpowder, 5,000 shells, which had just arrived shortly, and also became the trophies of the Qin army.
By the time everyone escorted the supplies to the outside of Xi'an, the battlefield here had not yet been counted.
There were so many dead that the corpses almost covered the roads and fields, and the blood that flowed almost soaked all the ground red.
As soon as Bai Qi arrived, his subordinates reported an unfortunate news that Lei Sheng had died.
When Wang Bao heard this, he was stunned, and he shouted: "This is impossible. The men led them to a large tent, where a corpse was covered with a white cloth, and Wang Leopard pounced on it and lifted it to see that it was Lei Sheng.
Lei Sheng was hit by four arrows, two in the front, one in the thigh, and one in the face.
It turned out that that night, when the fight was in full swing, Lei Sheng saw Xiong Wencan's location and wanted to rush over, but he was too powerful, and he didn't have a shield, he was tall and big, and he immediately became the target of Xiong Wencan's guards.
His own soldiers snatched him down and tried to heal him, but an arrow went straight into the heart, and there was no way to save him.
When Wang Bao saw that it was really Lei Sheng, he was overwhelmed with grief and cried loudly. Even though Bai Qi was hard-hearted, he closed his eyes and was speechless, gloomy and sad.
Li Yan and the others were also very sad, Lei Sheng was extremely loyal, and he was good to his subordinates, everyone treated him like a big brother, but he was killed on the spot in this siege-breaking battle.
Bai Qi looked at Li Yan, Li Yan understood, stepped forward and pulled Wang Leopard, persuaded him, and then ordered someone to carry Lei Sheng's body back to the city to prepare for a thick burial.
At this time, King Qin personally went out of the city to pick up Bai Qi.
When Bai Qi heard this, he was taken aback, and hurriedly dismounted with Li Yan and others, and walked to the city gate.
The King of Qin was dressed in a black robe, his face was solemn, very majestic, and it made people feel that the power of heaven was difficult to violate, and everyone came to the King of Qin and knelt down together to salute. King Qin hurriedly picked up Bai Qi: "General, it's all up to you to break the siege this time." β
Bai Qi shook his head lightly: "Where, my king is serious, this time all the soldiers used their lives, and the three armies died to the death, why did Bai Qi dare to say this?" β
King Qin ordered everyone to be even, he had learned that Lei Sheng was killed, so he came to Wang Bao and sighed: "Your brother Lei Sheng, is a tiger general, rare, died today, it is really sad, I have ordered to go down, the above general's ceremony is a generous burial, what relatives does he have, what other requirements do you have, just put it forward." β
When Wang Bao heard this, he cried again: "Thank you, the king, I thank the king for my deceased brother's kindness." β
Zhang Yi said in the back: "This is not a place to speak, king, are we talking in the house?" β
King Qin nodded, and the group got on the horse, and King Qin came to the palace.
At this time, the banquet had already been held in the house to celebrate the victory.
Xi'an has been besieged for several months, and today everyone reunites, and they all feel like they are in a different world. The banquet was staggered, and they drank very happily. Everyone, including King Qin, was very drunk.
Everyone rested for a day the next day, and early in the morning of the third day, King Qin gathered everyone to discuss the next step.
At this time, the dead in the Qin army had been buried, the injured had been treated, and Li Kang also supported the injured and came to the meeting.
That night Li Dang was shot in the left chest by an arrow, very seriously injured, fortunately it is very close to Xi'an City, if the distance is a little farther, the blood does not stop, the person will not be saved, Rao is so, when he was carried back to the city, Li Dang was already dying, and scared a Qianniang half to death.
The two of them have not yet married, because Qianniang is guarding her husband's filial piety, during this period of three years, she does not want to remarry, if Li Dang had not suddenly broken into the door that day, the two would not have met, let alone talk about today's feelings, if it was not for Li Kang, Qianniang would not remarry in this life.
