After the Qing army failed to attack the city, Dolgon and Chang Yu fell into a tearing war without gunpowder for the time being, and first Dolgon threw a problem: let me go, otherwise I will die with you!

Chang Yu took five days to reply, but he replied in more than two days: Either get out of your bare ass, or just do it, don't talk so much nonsense, who is afraid of whom.

A big move throws the problem back, leaving Dorgon in a state of confusion and a difficult choice.

I thought that five days would at least allow the baggage battalion to run out of the Shandong territory, and relying on the main force behind the palace to block the pursuers, there should be a thrilling exit, but who would have thought that in just two days, the baggage battalion had not completely crossed the Yellow River, and the people's ultimatum would come down.

Dolgon understood that Chang Yu originally wanted five days to wait for the decision of the imperial court, but now he replied in only two days, indicating that the imperial court had already given him instructions, and it was only two days away, which also showed that the Ming court did not hesitate to make a decision at all: either to fight or to fight, and his determination was serious!

But he didn't have a choice at this time, even if he knew that Ming Ting had the determination to let go of the battle at any cost, he still had to test the opponent's bottom line, because this would delay some time, have more opportunities, and have fewer casualties, after all, whether he chose to fight or fight at this time, it would be an unbearable loss for him.

So his letter to the little eunuch made it clear what he meant: I don't want to fight, I can fight, but the conditions have to be renegotiated.

And then there was no more!

The ball was kicked back again, I didn't say you can't do it, I said to talk, we have to renegotiate...... And then there was an endless back and forth, and when they had finished talking, they were out of the customs!

This is a procrastination trick, and it is not intended to drag you for a day or two, but for how long it can be delayed.

This is another trick that kills two birds with one stone, which can both drag and test the bottom line of the Ming army!

It's a pity that he met a little eunuch!

As early as in his previous life, he had heard a great man say that what he wanted at the negotiating table must be decided on the battlefield!

If you want to make a qualification, first of all, you have to have this qualification.

Chang Yu threw Dolgon's reply on the table, Li Yan reached out and took it, Zhou Yuji and Li Muxian went over to read it together, and Huang Degong pouted beside him: "According to Lao Tzu, talk to him about Mao, and directly raise troops to beat him up" Tu Yuan and others also echoed: "That's it, it's honest if you beat him......"

Chang Yu nodded: "Our family thinks so too!" ”

"Do you really think so?" Huang was overjoyed, and stood up and looked at Chang Yu.

"Of course!" Chang Yu exhaled with a sneer: "Some people just owe it to clean up, doesn't he want to try our bottom line, then go and tell him, Lao Tzu doesn't want to retreat at all and doesn't want to endure it, if you don't get along, you will fight, if you want Lao Tzu to do it first, and if you want to make peace, you have to listen to how Lao Tzu reconciles!" Saying that, he slapped the table heavily, and Huang Degong and the others immediately shouted: "The factory governor should give an order!" ”

"Slow" Li Yan stopped at this time: "Since Tartar wants to try our bottom line, why don't we also take the opportunity to try his bottom line?" ”

Before Chang Yu could speak, Huang Degong was anxious: "Try it, try it, try it, can you do it happily!" ”

"Yes!" Li Yan looked at Huang Degong: "But can you wait a little longer and give me half a day."

"General Li wants to overwhelm people with power?" Chang Yu raised his eyebrows, and Li Yan nodded: "The Tartars proposed peace talks and renegotiations, but did not put forward any conditions, it can be seen that it is a sincere delay, we only need to gather a large army to advance, if they really want to negotiate peace, they will take the initiative to put forward conditions, if they don't mention it, then it will not be too late to fight!" ”

"Good! Let's also see what conditions he proposes" Chang Yu turned his head to look at Huang Degong: "At noon, the army will pull out the camp and advance!" ”

The order must be carried out, Huang Degong, Zhou Yuji and others immediately went to the military camp to do mobilization standby, and the logistics personnel here went to the palace warehouse to load the truck, Zhu Youdi paid out of his own pocket and Chang Yu raised the money and grain raised by Qingzhou to pull all away.

Nearly noon, the north gate of Qingzhou City was opened, Tu Yuan and Hao Shaoqi led Teng Jiawei and Jin Wuwei nearly 20,000 soldiers and horses to rush out, crossed the Nanyang River and went straight to the direction of the Qing army's camp, Zhou Yuji and Huang Degong led the rest of the palace to slowly advance.

The Ming army suddenly sent troops to advance with great fanfare, which made Dolgon and his generals twenty miles away shocked, and he had previously replied to the little eunuch with a letter that seemed to be four, and it was expected that even if he peeked into his own mind, he would have to be patient to negotiate with me, who knew that the Ming army suddenly advanced with a large army, which was really unexpected.

Why did the Ming army react so much?

Dolgon was puzzled for a while, but he didn't have time to delve into the reason, because the Horse Exploration Institute reported that the vanguard of the Ming army's more than 10,000 cavalry had been pushed ten miles away from the camp!

The Qing army camp immediately sounded the first-level guard, and Dolgon ordered 5,000 Nikanti soldiers to prepare for battle on the riverside, while the rest waited around the camp to prevent the Ming army from sneaking attack.

As soon as he was ready in a hurry, he could see the Ming army slowly approaching due south, stopping inside and outside the house.

Dolgon and the others watched from across the river, whispering about whether the Ming army was going to fight, if it really didn't agree with each other and let it go, it would only be very unfavorable to him, so Dolgon decided to take the initiative back and send Shang Kexi to communicate with the Ming army.

Shang Kexi is a Han Chinese, and he is a Ming general, familiar with the style of the Ming court, and is the most suitable diplomatic envoy at the moment, and Shang Kexi is also the most suitable diplomatic envoy, and he led more than 100 personal soldiers to cross the river to the south and stopped two miles in front of the Ming army's formation, and ordered his personal soldiers to go to the other camp to spread the word.

The vanguard of the Ming army was Tu Yuan and Hao Shaoqi, and when they heard that Shang Kexi sent people to talk about peace, they scolded him, saying that if the Qing army did not make a clear statement after half an hour, they would launch an attack!

After the soldiers returned, Shang Kexi wondered: didn't this propose to negotiate peace, and what else was needed to make a clear statement, so he sent someone to report back to Dolgon.

"We proposed to negotiate peace before, but we didn't mention the conditions, the original intention was to delay time, and the other party spied through and sent troops to force us to express our position, I'm afraid that our delaying plan won't work" Duoduo said a word, looked at Dolgon and said: "That little eunuch is too shrewd, he doesn't plan to drag us with him at all, we must make a choice!" ”

Dolgon sneered: "Not really, the fact that he didn't directly attack means that there is still a chance for peace talks, he is waiting for us to put forward conditions, this is already dragging him."

"But this condition can be cautious, neither can the lion open his mouth to provoke the other party, but also cannot let us lose too much." Duoduo frowned, fearing that if he didn't agree, he would attack.

Dolgon snorted: "Even if you attack, why be afraid, I don't believe that more than 10,000 of his people can break my camp!" ”

"Fourteenth Brother" Duoduo couldn't help but raise his voice: "You always persuade others to make big plans if you can't bear it, now is not the time to fight fiercely, how can you be presumptuous, remember that the most important thing for us at the moment is to get out of the customs safely, and the overall situation is important!" ”

Dolgon smiled wryly and shook his head, "What you're talking about...... I'm afraid I'm dizzy, and my head is always hard to suppress the anger in my heart,,," said and waved his hand: "That's it, that's it, this new hatred and old hatred will be counted later, and now I will go back safely first" As he spoke, he beckoned the generals under his command to discuss how to reply to the Ming army and what conditions were most suitable!

Peace talks, peace talks, are inseparable from a word, that is, everything is negotiable, the Ming army made a price, put everything down for me, and then roll the calf!

Then Dolgon is about to cut the price, and if he can't let the Ming army get a fixed price, then the meaning and essence of peace negotiations will be lost.
