Handan, Longtai.

Zhao Dan looked at Duan Ganzi in front of him who was sincerely afraid and lowered his head, and suddenly had a feeling in his heart that happiness had come too suddenly.

You must know that not long ago, Zhao Dan's Zhao Kingdom still looked stormy, quite a bit embattled, and Nuoda's hegemony was like a very unstable castle in the air, and there was a feeling of being pushed down.

However, after only this short month, the entire battlefield situation changed in an instant, and all the countries that had been opposed to Zhao also rushed to send envoys to Handan to sue for peace, just to be able to direct Zhao's attention to other countries.

Qin, Korea, Qi, and now Wei, this is really a fast report in the world.

Zhao Dan looked at Duan Ganzi and said very calmly: "Since you want to ask for peace, then you have to show some sincerity." The widow wants to ask, what is the sincerity of King Wei? ”

I don't know if it's because of too much pressure or for some other reason, Duan Ganzi's forehead was already slightly sweating at the moment, and he hurriedly said to Zhao Dan when he heard the words: "Back to the king, my king has already said that as long as the king is willing to make peace with the Wei State, then the Wei State is willing to sacrifice Daliang City as a condition for peace." ”

"Liang City?" Zhao Dan's brows furrowed slightly, and he said to Duan Ganzi with some amusement: "So King Wei wants to use a ghost city to send away the widow, right?" ”

Although it has been several years since Li Mu flooded Daliang City, because Wei has not taken out manpower and material resources to plug that gap and clean up the corpses in the city, Daliang City is still a water town, and every night it is even more ghostly, scaring to death many people who want to go to hunt for treasures inside.

Under such circumstances, the city of Daliang is actually a ruin.

Duan Ganzi smiled and said: "Back to the king, not only Daliang City, but even all the land around Daliang City, including Xiuyu City, has been ceded to Zhao State. ”

Zhao Dan's face moved slightly, and then he spoke: "In other words, does the King of Wei plan to cede the entire land north of Jishui to the widows?" ”

Duan Ganzi was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously wanted to open his mouth to refute.

According to the pre-plan of the Wei monarchs and ministers, it was only necessary to hand over Daliang City and Xiuyu City to Zhao in the west of Daliang City, so that a small area in the east could be left as a buffer to deal with Zhao's attacks in the future.

But I didn't expect Zhao Dan's appetite to be so big, and what he wanted as soon as he came up was the entire land north of Jishui.

That's twice the area of land that Wei is going to cede!

But Duan Ganzi looked at Zhao Dan at the top, but he couldn't think of any idea of opposing it at all.

You must know that at this time, people are swordsmen, and I am fish and meat.

Duan Ganzi took a deep breath, barely squeezed out a smile on his face, and smiled at Zhao Dan: "The king is really like a god, and my king is preparing to cede the entire land north of Jishui to the king in exchange for a truce between Wei and Zhao. ”

When Duan Ganzi said this, there was a pain in his heart.

But speaking of which, it is not the first time that Duan Ganzi has experienced such a scene.

After all, he had gone to Qin State many times as a peace envoy, and he and Qin Wangji, the old fox, had met many times, and each time he was able to return peacefully.

Therefore, Duan Ganzi felt that he should still be able to successfully complete the task this time.

Duan Ganzi and Zhao Dan didn't have much contact, just through a few alliances, and basically didn't say anything, but as the so-called hard work pays off, after these contacts and the information collected, Duan Ganzi thinks that he has found a set of experience.

This experience is that Zhao Dan and Qin Wangji are not the same path at all, and the tricks that are useful to Qin Wangji are not applicable to Zhao Dan at all.

In the face of such a British lord who is only thirty years old and has become the world's first in the world, he is looking for death by himself for any slippery head, only by giving out all the conditions at the beginning and having a frank dialogue with Zhao Dan can he hope to get a satisfactory result.

From now on, Duan Ganzi feels that his strategy seems to be executing well.

Zhao Dan nodded, and said again: "It also includes Weijun's land, right?" ”

The Wei Jun mentioned here actually refers to a vassal state with a long history - Wei Guo.

Now the Wei State has been reduced to a vassal of the Wei State, and in order to avoid disasters, he even took the initiative to demote himself to a feudal monarch, and he only has a small piece of land, which can be said to exist in name only.

Duan Ganzi was very helpless in his heart, and nodded again and again: "What the king said is good, even Weijun's land has been ceded to the king. ”

In fact, because this land of Wei Guo is located north of the Yellow River, Duan Ganzi and Wei have no way to cede it even if they don't want to, after all, the Zhao army has an absolute geographical advantage, and it can be said that it is easy to capture this land.

Anyway, even such a large area of land north of Jishui has been ceded, so it is impossible to fall out with Zhao State because of such a small piece of land, right?

After Zhao Dan heard Duan Ganzi's reply, the smile on his face became even stronger, and he said to Duan Ganzi: "Very good, if that's the case, when can the land be delivered?" ”

Duan Ganzi was happy when he heard the call in his heart, and hurriedly said to Zhao Dan: "As long as the king is willing, then he can immediately give an order to General Pang, and let General Pang Xuan lead the army to receive the land." ”

Since Qi has negotiated peace with Zhao, Pang Xuan is now liberated, and the Zhao army, which has increased to 200,000, has just arrived on the north bank of Jishui, and can attack Taoyi, the capital of Wei, at any time.

If Zhao Dan ordered Pang Xuan to receive the land at this time, then Pang Xuan didn't even have to cross the river, just went west, which can be said to be very easy.

Zhao Dan nodded, and smiled at Duan Ganzi in front of him: "Duan Qing, to be honest, such conditions are very satisfying. ”

As soon as Duan Ganzi heard this, the boulder in his whole heart's heart was immediately put down, and Qianjun's burden was instantly relieved.

Judging from the current situation, Duan Ganzi's mission was obviously successful, which made him feel a little proud in his heart, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but turn up slightly, revealing a smile.

Zhao Dan looked at Duan Ganzi's appearance, a playful smile also flashed on his face, and then continued to say to Duan Ganzi: "But I'm sorry, it's absolutely impossible to agree to such a condition. ”

Duan Ganzi's smile instantly condensed on his face.

Zhao Dan looked at Duan Ganzi and said leisurely: "Duan Qing, Duan Qing, if you had told the widow such a condition a month ago, then the widow would definitely agree to your condition without hesitation." But...... The current situation is not the same as then, Duan Qing! ”

"The current situation is that the widow can send a partial division to sweep the entire north of Jishui at any time if he wants to, and all the land you just said will be included in the widow's hands, and it will be completely effortless. Do you understand? ”

"Since these lands are at the fingertips of the widows, why should the widows truce with the Wei state because of such conditions?"

Duan Ganzi finally recovered from his stunned state at this time, and his heart was extremely shocked.

It was only at this time that Duan Ganzi discovered his mistake, and he still underestimated Zhao Dan's appetite!

Just a few hundred miles of fertile land north of Jishui is far from satisfying Zhao Dan!

Duan Ganzi hurriedly said: "The king ......"

Zhao Dan waved his hand and directly interrupted Duan Ganzi's words: "Duan Qing doesn't need to say much, you can go back and think about it first, and by the way, send someone back to discuss with your king, and see what kind of conditions will be offered." When you figure it out, then when you come back to talk to the widow about peace. ”

Duan Ganzi stood up a little dejected and left the main hall of Longtai.

This self-proclaimed negotiator of Wei Xiangbang couldn't figure it out, obviously these conditions were formulated according to the results of Zhao Dan's previous negotiations with other countries, and Wei ceded more land than other countries, why didn't King Zhao appreciate it?

In fact, this problem is not only Duan Ganzi, even several important ministers of Zhao State also have such doubts.

Li Bo couldn't help but speak: "King, in fact, this condition of Wei is already quite generous, why doesn't the king agree?" ”

Zhao Dan smiled and said to all the ministers of Zhao State in front of him: "Do all the ministers think so? ”

Some nodded, some shook their heads, and some were silent and thoughtful.

Zhao Dan said by name: "Pingyuanjun, you come and tell me your opinion." ”

Zhao Sheng was stunned for a moment, and then spoke: "Do you think that the king is still thinking about continuing to attack Wei?" ”

Zhao Dan nodded with a smile and said, "Pingyuan Jun's words have won the hearts of widows. ”

Yu Xin, who had been listening to the side, finally couldn't help it at this time, and said: "King, now that the soldiers are a little tired after months of fierce battles, shouldn't the king consider a temporary truce?" ”

Zhao Dan shook his head and said, "Yu Qing's words are wrong. The widow has already said that in this war, there must be a country that can pay the price, so that other countries can see what the fate of opposing the widow is! If every country is seeking peace by ceding land step by step, it will not be enough to suppress their minds. ”

Yu Xin said: "But if the king continues to use troops against the Wei State, I am afraid that the Wei State will go further on the road against the King in the future." ”

Zhao Dan waved his hand and said disapprerovitically: "The widow actually understands that unless the Wei State can change a monarch, otherwise the King of Wei must fight against the widow." ”

"Besides, now that the Wei State has occupied Shouchun, the Yan capital of the Chu State, and taken down the Jiujiang County of the Chu State, the widow has watched the Wei Wangyu behave like this, if he is given some more time, he will definitely make a comeback in the future and continue to fight against the widow."

"Since this is the case, then the widow might as well directly cripple the Wei State, so that he no longer has any strength to fight against the widow! In this way, in the days to come, the widow will only have to concentrate on dealing with the other countries. ”

Zhao Dan actually didn't say anything because he felt that the time was not yet right.

These words made the ministers of Zhao Guo happy and convinced, and they nodded yes one after another.

Zhao Dan saw that no one continued to raise objections to his words, so he waved his hand and said to the ministers of Zhao State in front of him: "Okay, let the widow do your own business!" By the way, Pingyuanjun, let's stay for a while, the widow has something to talk to you about. ”
