Wei Kuo can speak Manchu, Fan Wencheng can speak Chinese, and there is no problem in communication.

However, Fan Wencheng is also Han, so the two of them communicate in Chinese.

This time, in addition to the two Manchu Jiala, there was also a Manchu strategist who could understand Chinese.

The location is in the middle of the Wei Baojun camp and Lianshan Pass.

The camp of Wei Baojun is ten miles away from Lianshanguan, and here is exactly five miles away from both sides.

A few people made a sheepskin blanket and spread it on the snow, lit a bonfire, and boiled mare's milk wine, which was not cold.

"I am here to talk to you on behalf of the Heaven and Earth Society, there is one thing I think you should already know, that is, Lianshanguan must give me the Heaven and Earth Society, which is not negotiable, and on this basis, other things are easy to discuss." Wei Kuo got straight to the point and said: "If you can't meet this, you don't have to waste time. ”

"I don't think this prevents us from talking about things, and the matter of Lianshanguan can be put aside for a while." Fan Wencheng said: "Our Great Khan has already agreed, as long as Wei Dashuai is sincere in reconciling with my Great Jin Kingdom, he can hand over the Jinzhou region and the Lushunkou area to Wei Dashuai's jurisdiction!" And, I have a better thing to tell you! If Wei Dashuai can go one step further with my Dajin Kingdom, the future will be more than a mountain pass! It is not difficult for the entire southern Liaoning to be placed under the jurisdiction of Wei Dashuai. ”

Wei Kuo, the head of the Liaonan Station of the Statistics Department of the Heaven and Earth Society, did not understand what Fan Wencheng meant, "Please speak clearly." ”

"The Great Khan intends to marry the most noble Cong Gulun Gege of the Great Jin Kingdom to Wei Dashuai! Recruit Wei Dashuai as his son-in-law! became the son-in-law of the Great Khan, didn't he want anything? Fan Wencheng said with a smile.

Wei Kuo's eyes widened, he didn't expect Jiannu to be so willing to spend the money.

"How?" Fan Wencheng was very satisfied with the other party's performance, "Has our Dajin Kingdom shown the greatest sincerity?" You yourself know very well that you can't beat the Dajin Kingdom, and even the Ming Dynasty can't beat us, let alone your business. In the end, it is nothing more than my Dajin country losing some more national strength, but you have to die a lot of people, many, many! This is what our Great Khan does not want to see. ”

"That's all for today, I'm a little tired, and I'll convey the envoy's meaning to my family marshal." Wei Kuo heard that the other party kept calling the president handsome, so he followed the other party's name. And Wei Kuo felt that the president of his family was more worthy of the title of handsome than Mao Wenlong.

"Stop talking about it so soon? Isn't Zunjia able to represent Wei Dashuai? Fan Wencheng wondered.

"No, it's not that we won't talk about it, it's here for the time being." Wei Kuo said: "There is time, don't be anxious, tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, after the Chinese New Year, you can talk about it." ”

Fan Wencheng looked stunned, feeling that the other party was completely perfunctory, it seemed that Dajin Guo was begging Wei Bao, but it seemed that Dajin Guo was weak, and Wei Bao was strong? Are these people crazy? Do you really think that a small business can compete with Dajin Guo?

"Farewell!" Wei Kuo got up as he spoke, and resolutely walked away with two agents from the Statistics Bureau of Liaonan Station.

"The Han people are so arrogant and rude! How unreasonable! We don't have to talk to them anymore! After the people of the Heaven and Earth Society left, the Manchurian strategist said angrily: "They have no sincerity to negotiate at all!" ”

"Not necessarily, you don't know the Han people, you don't know the Han people, most of the Han people are backbone, especially the literati, they are fighting a war with our Dajin Kingdom, we are hostile relations, it is not easy to sit together and talk! I believe that we threw out such good conditions, they will not go unconsidered. Fan Wencheng is very confident. If you are unhappy, you are not happy, but Fan Wencheng is still confident that Wei Bao will be submissive, and this is a great opportunity for him to make meritorious contributions in front of Nurhachi.

Fan Wencheng was bent on making the negotiations successful.

"In front of our Dajin Kingdom, what are the Han people? They're just a bunch of pigs and dogs for us to hunt! The Manchurian strategist repeated resentfully.

Fan Wencheng's face was a little unsightly, he was a Han, and the other party was embarrassed that a Han was a pig and a dog, but he didn't say anything.

After a while, Fan Wencheng said to the Manchurian strategist: "If you can't bear it, you will make a big plan, it's best not to tell the Great Khan about the other party's arrogant attitude today, I hope there will be better negotiation progress tomorrow." ”

The Manchurian strategist also hoped that the negotiations would be successful, and nodded in agreement. After all, Fan Wencheng is solely responsible for this negotiation.

Wei Kuo returned to Qingtaiyu and told Lin Wenbiao the news that Fan Wencheng, the special envoy of Jiannu had told him today.

The stakes were so great that Lin Wenbiao did not dare to slack off and reported to President Wei, who was inspecting the training of recruits in the army.

Wei Bao didn't react after hearing this, but Wu Xuexia snorted softly angrily, "Jiannu is really willing to give up the capital, and the princess has let it out." ”

Wei Bao smiled and didn't say anything, in fact, Wei Bao had already expected it.

Now that he has caught Cong Gulen Gege, it is normal for Nurhachi to push the boat to give his daughter to himself.

And he is only two years old apart from Cong Gulengege, and his age is appropriate.

Give Tsung Gulen Gege to himself, and Nurhachi can gain a son-in-law.

If you don't give Tsunguleng to herself, Nurhachi will have one less daughter.

This account, one positive and one negative, is easy to calculate.

"What are you laughing at? You don't really want to be Jiannu's son-in-law, do you? Wu Xuexia was suddenly unhappy.

Wei Bao glanced at Lin Wenbiao, Lin Wenbiao was a little embarrassed, if he didn't wait for the president's reply, he would have to leave, and it was inconvenient to listen to the private conversation between the president and Wu Xuexia.

Wu Xuexia also realized that Lin Wenbiao was still there, and no longer asked Wei Bao.

"Didn't I say that? You talk about it, you don't have to take it seriously, you don't have to tell me! No matter what is said at the negotiation table, it is all an appearance, and it is just a trick! Wei Bao said.

"Yes, President." Lin Wenbiao agreed and stepped back. I can't help but report such a big thing, right? Do you say yes first? Or not? If you agree first, wouldn't it be more confusing to build a slave?

"Is that really it? Maybe Jiannu is sincere? Aren't you tempted by that Jiannugege? It's pretty. Wu Xuexia looked at Wei Bao sourly.

Wei Bao smiled: "No matter how beautiful you are, you are not as beautiful, what's wrong with Jiannu's Gege?" ”

Wu Xuexia was overjoyed when she heard this, squinted her eyes, and her beautiful eyes were full of gorgeous halos. Like the stars in the day.

After hearing about today's negotiation process, Huang Taiji was very angry, "Can this person represent Wei Bao?" When they heard that the Great Khan was willing to marry Gegexu to Wei Bao, they didn't continue to talk? ”

"Baylor, the other party's secret envoy is very difficult to entangle, he hardly says anything, and he is about to leave after two sentences, which is incomprehensible." Fan Wencheng nodded.

"Han people are indeed very difficult to entangle, they always turn around when they speak, and they don't know what they are talking about for a long time!" Huang Taiji said: "It seems that there will be no gain from this secret talk!" Try to appease and confuse the other party, and create an opportunity for the army to raid the camp of the Wei Bao Army! However, let them know their thoughts as soon as possible! Either way, we have to be serious. ”

"Yes, Baylor." Fan Wencheng understood what Huang Taiji meant. In fact, Fan Wencheng knew that the Great Jin Kingdom did not want to continue to consume it, and if they could, they hoped to force Wei Baojun to withdraw his troops and retreat to the Jinzhou region during the negotiations, so as to maintain the dividing line of the previous confrontation with Mao Wenlong's army.

The next day, Fan Wencheng met with Wei Kuo again.

"First of all, you have to recognize my great golden country! Then you must pledge to renounce hostilities. Fan Wencheng said: "Our request is simple, right? ”

Wei Kuo listened expressionlessly, without any expression.

"Secret envoy, we hope to get a clear answer from Wei Dashuai tomorrow, preferably in writing!" Fan Wencheng said.

"It can't be! As we said before, all negotiations are confidential. It is impossible for us to give any written reply. Wei Kuo immediately refused.

"Then you must at least immediately withdraw from the camp outside Lianshan Pass!" Fan Wencheng said.

"I can't answer you on that, I'll let you know today." Wei Kuo said: "Farewell." ”

Fan Wencheng was speechless, the other party did not speak more than three sentences at a time, and then he had to leave.

Lin Wenbiao did not convey the meaning of Jiannu to the president this time, but said directly to Wei Kuo: "They put forward conditions, let's also put forward conditions!" First of all, Jiannu gave up Lianshan Pass! Secondly, in the future, it is not allowed to send troops to attack and harass southern Liaoning! ”

"This, Jiannu will definitely not agree." Wei Kuo Road.

"Whether they agree or not, the negotiation must look like a negotiation, go ahead and say it." Lin Wenbiao said.

"Yes, sign." Wei Kuo nodded in agreement.

The next day, Wei Kuo informed Fan Wencheng of Lin Wenbiao's intentions.

Fan Wencheng said angrily: "You guys are completely insincere! Why do you still ask us to connect the mountain pass? Could it be that you, Wei Dashuai, have already agreed to be the son-in-law of our Great Khan? ”

"The matter of being the son-in-law of the Great Khan, we didn't say it, I don't know what the big marshal thinks, but these two items were put forward from above." Wei Kuo smiled: "I'm the same as you, just to pass on a word." ”

"Unless your Great Commander agrees to be the son-in-law of our Great Khan, and he personally makes such a request to our Great Khan, it will be insincere! We have made the greatest concessions, and I hope you will recognize the current situation! We, Dajin Country, have good intentions and don't want millions of innocent people to suffer! Do you understand? Fan Wencheng said toughly.

"Envoy, please don't speak to me in such a tone! You are not weak, and neither are we! Otherwise, why would you negotiate with us? Wei Kuo smiled, "It doesn't seem like we were looking for you first, right?"

Fan Wencheng was speechless for a while, and was angry with the other party, indeed, in the negotiation, who found the other party first, this was originally a little lower.

Fan Wencheng wanted to get angry, wanted to declare war very much, didn't want to talk about it anymore, and forced his anger and didn't make a sound.

Wei Kuo smiled: "Okay, envoy, let's stop here today!" Tomorrow is the New Year, and we all need to rest. Leave. ”

Fan Wencheng watched Wei Kuo leave coldly without saying a word.

After Fan Wencheng told Huang Taiji about today's negotiations, Huang Taiji did not say anything, but went directly to see Nurhachi.

Nurhachi calmly listened to Huang Taiji's report and did not speak.

"Father Khan! Wei Bao doesn't seem to intend to marry Cong Gulun at all, nor does he intend to reconcile with us, for this kind of arrogant person, he can only use the iron cavalry of my Eight Banners army to wipe it out! Huang Taiji said: "Although it is winter now, it is not good for our army's iron cavalry, but suddenly use tens of thousands of troops to attack together, quickly break through the camp of Wei Bao's army, and solve their main force in one fell swoop, and then we will have an advantage." Tomorrow is the Chinese New Year's Eve of the Han people, and I think it is in our best interest to launch an attack at this time! ”

Nurha equated: "But a large battalion of 100,000 troops, and they are ready for battle, this is no different from a strong city!" The Han people also dug trenches, and the defense was very orderly! If the tens of thousands of troops are frustrated, they will be in great trouble. ”

What Nurhachi didn't finish saying was that there weren't many young and middle-aged men in the Eight Banners, and there were only three or four hundred thousand people who could be dispatched, one or two thousand at a time, and one or two thousand at a time.

"Don't attack their camp, but suppress them with arrows head-on, our arrows are much farther than the Han Chinese! They can't hit us at all! Both sides sent elite soldiers to kill a group of Han people who were rushing to repair the city wall, and teach the Han people a bloody lesson! We have few people, but we can counter-surround the camp of Wei Baojun, they don't dare to come out, we will kill people everywhere, they dare to come out, then it's even better, outside the camp, they are not the elite opponents of my Eight Banners at all. "Huang Taiji Dao.

"Yes! You're in charge of tomorrow's attack! Nurhachi was persuaded by Huang Taiji. Originally, in the past two days, Nurhachi was also suppressing his anger.

Huang Taiji nodded calmly: "Yes, Father Khan!" As long as the generals can listen to me, I will never make the mistakes I made before. I won't let Wei Baojun have a chance to kill or injure the elite of my Eight Banners. ”

"You take my gold medal and send arrows to the generals!" Nurhachi untied a gold medal arrow from his waist and handed it to Huang Taiji.

Huang Taiji knelt down and took it respectfully, "Yes, Father Khan." ”

After noon the next day, after the Jiannu army had a full meal, Huang Taiji ordered an attack.

The 4,000-strong army suppressed the Baojun camp by archery in the front, and an army of 3,000 men was dispatched on each side to attack the Han people who were building the city wall near Tianshui Station and Qingtaiyu.

Although this day was Chinese New Year's Eve, the treasure army was waiting for Jiannu every day, and Jiannu shot arrows, and the army was well concealed and did not shoot against Jiannu.

The people near Tianshui Station and Qingtaiyu have also been on guard, and as soon as the Jiannu army was dispatched, some people had already announced it everywhere, so that everyone quickly rushed back to Tianshui Station and Qingtaiyu City to hide.

When President Wei received the news of Jiannu's attack, he was watching the people under him busy preparing for the New Year in the Qingtaiyu President's Mansion.

President Wei asked Cong Gulen Gege to take him over.

To be precise, it was Wu Xuexia who proposed to let people take Cong Gulen Gege over, Wu Xuexia felt that at this kind of festival moment, Cong Gulen Gege was detained here, a girl, she must be very scared and homesick.

Wu Xuexia's proposal won the favor of President Wei, and she immediately agreed.

Cong Gulen Gege didn't want to come, but now she hates Wei Bao so much. felt that the real loneliness was in her bones, and felt that she was the only one left in the world.

Wei Bao knew that Cong Gulen Gege definitely didn't want to come, so he personally wrote a poem to her.

I still like you very much, like Yanyun Yangsha, with spears and blood guarding the banner, invincible.

I still like you very much, like Qin Chuan's snow, ten thousand swords sleeping at the bottom of the pool, without trace of sword intent.

I still like you very much, like Jinghu Fanze, the aroma of wine spreads in the air, chasing the wind and kicking.

I still like you very much, like the flying flowers of Dongyue, the sound of the piano is beautiful out of the old city, and the heart is hanging jade.

I still like you very much, like Xiangzhou flowing clouds, the floating dust swept through Tai Chi, and there was no trace.

I still like you very much, like a cloud burning fire, the sword light hides in the dense forest, and there is no mirage.

I still like you very much, like the Bashu bamboo forest, the puppets are full of thousands of machines, flying flowers and star showers.

I still like you very much, like Xu Hai maple leaves, eagles soaring in the sky, chasing the stars.

I still like you very much, like treading the waves of the East China Sea, flying flowers indulging in flute sound, Shaohua five rhymes.

I still like you very much, like the rivers and lakes in the past, from now on, the end of the world is you, and the bright moon is also you.

Although Cong Gulen Gege didn't understand the meaning too much, the girl liked this set very much, especially so many of them, sweet and silky, so after hesitating for a while, she still came.

"Do you have a New Year's Eve with all of you?" Wu Xuexia asked Cong Gulen Gege.

The two women have been chatting for a while, both are girls, Wu Xuexia saw that Cong Gulun Gesheng was beautiful and abnormal, and she could speak fluent Chinese, so she had a good impression and there was no obstacle to communication at all.

It seems that Wu Xuexia is only jealous of Zhao Jinfeng, and she is very peaceful with other women around Wei Bao, and even wants to match Wei Bao and Cong Gulengege.

The older, 15-year-old Wu Xuexia, is not jealous at all about the 12-year-old and doll-like cute Cong Gulen Gegege, but she hopes that Cong Gulen Gege is her little sister.

"Yes, we also celebrate the holidays." Satoshi Gulen replied.

"Is it so lively that we are? We'll set off firecrackers later. Wu Xuexia smiled, "There may not be so many firecrackers here, if it is in Shanhaiguan, there are many merchants there, most of the merchants will set off firecrackers during the New Year, and there may not be many people left in the people's homes to set off firecrackers, do you set off firecrackers?" ”

"Well, I put it too." Cong Gulen Gege looked at Wei Bao.

Wei Bao happened to be looking at Cong Gulen Gege.

Cong Gulen Gege and Wei Bao's eyes flashed away at the touch, and they pouted, looking arrogant.

Wei Bao looked at Cong Gulenge's pink-carved face, smiled slightly, and was not angry, no matter who was, he would not be angry with a young and beautiful little girl, but he felt very cute.

At this time, the Qingtaiyu city defense continued to sound gongs to warn.

"What's going on? Did Jiannu attack? Wei Bao asked.

Lin Wenbiao rushed over and said, "Yes, president, Jiannu is attacking from three sides. ”

Lin Wenbiao said that he would talk about the direction of Jiannu's three-way attack.

Wei Bao nodded: "I thought of it a long time ago, Hou San and Madman Tan will defend well!" Try to notify all the nearby people to enter the city to take refuge! ”

"Rest assured, President, we are prepared. The people have been sent out to inform them. Lin Wenbiao said.

Wei Bao and Lin Wenbiao were talking, and Cong Gulen Gege was huffing and clasping his arms.

"What's wrong? You are the ones who beat us, and you are still not happy? Wu Xuexia was very relaxed, and smiled at Cong Gulengege.

"I'm not angry at them because they're fighting, I'm angry at him! Why did he call us Jiannu? Are the Han people so noble? "Cong Gulen Gege airway.

Wu Xuexia covered her mouth and sneered: "Angry about this? Then there's no need, isn't it called that all the time? Don't you have any contemptuous names for us Han Chinese? Didn't you take a large number of Han Chinese into slavery every year? ”

The slave chief is the abbreviation of the Ming people for the chief Nurhachi, and similarly, Nurhachi's younger brother Suer Hachi is called "Speed Chief", Beiguan Governor (Yebel) Buzhai is called "Bu Chief", and the leader of the Han Dynasty, Hudun Rabbit (Hutuketu, called "Lin Dan Khan") is called "Tiger Chief" and so on.

"Slave" can be extended from the name "slave chief" to a tribe, such as "Dongnu", which refers to the "slave department" in "Dongyi", and "slave soldiers" and "slave thieves" all refer to the "slave army", that is, the Houjin army.

The meaning of "Jiannu" should be "the slave department in Jianzhou" to be precise.

When Cong Gulen Gege heard Wu Xuexia say this, he felt reasonable, but he was still unhappy.

People are like this, they can't listen to others when they say they can and others talk about themselves.

"The most feared thing is that Jiannu will be harassed everywhere like before, even if the common people can hide in the city or hide in the deep mountains and old forests, but our farmland and houses will still be destroyed in large quantities, and the self-confidence we have just established will also be severely hit by Jiannu!" Wei Bao Road.

Wu Xuexia glanced at Cong Gulen Gege, and then looked at Wei Bao, secretly thinking, saying this in front of Cong Gulen Gege?
