Wei Bao smiled faintly and didn't explain too much.

He knew that there were differences with Wu Xuexia on the overall situation, but he didn't care about it and didn't expect to convince everyone.

And Wei Bao knew that in Weijiazhuang, in southern Liaoning, in North Korea, in Hejian Mansion, Cangzhou Mansion, Shandong, anyway, in all the areas under the jurisdiction of the Heaven and Earth Society, probably people think so.

Wei Bao doesn't want to fight more wars, kill more people, and fight Jiannu in such a high-profile manner, Daming is not deaf and blind, can the Ming Emperor watch him slowly become bigger? Only by quietly developing and putting all the gold and silver in your pocket is the king.

On the same day, Madman Tan asked people to start withdrawing their troops, and in order to be safe, they withdrew little by little, and they all withdrew the next day.

Of course, there were still a lot of mines near the Yanguli camp, and Jiannu did not dare to rush over and occupy the camp after knowing that the treasure army had retreated.

Yesterday, as soon as Dai Shan and Huang Taiji went back, they truthfully reported the process of peace talks with Wei Bao.

Nurhachi was naturally very dissatisfied, and did not say anything that day, and asked them to go back first.

The next day, after knowing that Wei Bao had indeed withdrawn, he convened everyone to discuss.

Nurhachi asked Huang Taiji to say all the conditions put forward by Wei Bao.

In fact, as for Wei Bao's conditions, everyone knows that there has not changed much, but the compensation of 12 million taels has been changed to 10 million taels, and then it is to let Cong Gulenge pass on to the Mongolian tribal leader.

In the eyes of the Manchus and traitors, there is nothing to this, the traitors are very aware of the suspicions of the Ming court, and they know that Wei Bao is doing this just to hide people's eyes, which is understandable, and there is no hindrance to the Jin State.

"The main thing is that there are too many silver taels! If you trade, it will not hurt us, instead of letting the Jin merchants make money, it is better to do business with Wei Bao on an equal footing, which is good for both parties. Bao Chengxian said.

The crowd was silent.

Huang Taiji saw that Fan Wencheng wanted to speak, so he said, "Mr. Fan, just say whatever you want." ”

Fan Wencheng looked at Nurhachi, Fan Wencheng's official position at this time was still very low, and his status was far lower than that of Bao Chengxian, so he couldn't talk casually.

Nurhae: "If you have something to say, here, you can speak freely, as long as it is a good proposal for Dajin Guo, you can say it." ”

"Great Khan, Wei Bao asked for huge compensation, not to mention, this is a robber! My Dajin country is not rich in the first place, and it is not easy to accumulate some gold and silver, and most of it was dug up by Wei Bao, and Wei Bao's territory can develop faster from then on. As for trade, it seems to be equal, but Wei Bao sits on Liaonan and North Korea, and he has nothing to do with what we have, and when the time comes, it will only become us to buy their things, and they don't have to buy our things, and I found that Wei Bao's people are already using a kind of paper money, if we trade with them, in the future, slowly, we will also use the paper money they printed, paper money is made of paper, worthless, in the long run, we will be controlled by the enemy economically! Both of these are very harmful to the interests of the Dajin Kingdom. Fan Wencheng said loudly.

When everyone heard Fan Wencheng say this, they realized that Wei Bao needed to trade, and he really didn't have a good heart.

Bao Chengxian wanted to scold Fan Wencheng very much, and wanted to say what do you say? Don't negotiate peace with Wei Bao, wait for Wei Bao to call again?

Have you ever hit Wei Bao head-on?

But Bao Chengxian held back and didn't say anything.

Because if you say that, you will definitely not be pleased.

"What should I do, according to you? No matter what, don't you talk to Wei Bao anymore? Nurhachi asked.

"Drag it out if you can!" Fan Wencheng said: "We can't be completely led by Wei Bao. In this way, our Dajin Kingdom is too passive! We have to show what we're capable of, too! Regardless of whether he Wei Bao will help the Liaodong Army or not, we must regain our dignity and let the surrounding forces take a look, our Dajin Kingdom is still the most powerful. ”

"What are you going to do?" Nurhachi became interested, "If Wei Bao sends someone to urge, what should we do?" ”

"They sent someone to urge, which means that they are in a hurry! I conveniently got the upper hand. Fan Wencheng said: "Can we not fight Liaonan and North Korea first, can we contact, Mo Nan and Mongolia will put pressure on Liaodong together, so that the Liaodong border army and the Jiliao border army will not dare to disarm casually, and Wei Bao will not be able to achieve the goal of controlling Liaodong, otherwise, Wei Bao will not only control Liaonan and North Korea, but also control Liaodong, and connect on three sides of our Dajin country, we will be extremely passive!" There is also Mao Wenlong, in the past two years, Mao Wenlong's military expenses and food and salary have been controlled by Wei Bao, if Wei Bao is allowed to control Liaodong again, it is equivalent to Wei Bao controlling all the Ming troops outside the Guan. Those local families in Liaodong will no longer have the capital to fight against Wei Bao. ”

Nurhachi listened to Fan Wencheng's words and nodded frequently, "From today on, you will follow me." ”

Fan Wencheng was overjoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly arched his hand and said, "Chi! Obey the orders of the Great Khan. ”

"Father Khan, why don't you let Fan Wencheng come to me as a strategist, I wanted to ask Father Khan for him." Huang Taiji took the opportunity to say.

"It's good!" Nurhachi's mood was a little better and he agreed.

"Can it be delayed for a day, isn't he Wei Bao the prison army of Jiliao? Let's stir up Liaodong is not peaceful, see if Wei Bao still has the time to negotiate with us, if they are in a hurry, tell them that they want to negotiate peace, let him Wei Bao talk to me, I can see him Wei Bao in person in Qinghe Fort! Nurhachi continued: "You are fully responsible for these things, Huang Taiji. ”

"Father Khan, you can delay by arranging the etiquette of Conggulun's succession to Buhe has not yet been completed, anyway, he Wei Bao himself proposed to do this, and they don't understand our etiquette." Huang Taiji made a plan.

"Feasible." Nurhachi nodded and said: "Hurry up and contact the Mongols, go back to Liaodong, they are forced to follow us, this time clearly tell them that no matter how much wealth they get in Liaodong, they will be distributed according to the number of troops sent and proportional, and they are allowed to share more than us!" ”

Huang Taiji was taken aback, knowing that Nurhachi was doing this in order to get more soldiers and horses and show his strength, "Father Khan, but if you do this, you can't change it if you want to change it in the future, and you will send troops next year and the year after tomorrow, will you do the same?" Isn't it too cheap for the Mongols? ”

The others thought the same way, feeling that this time Nurhachi was messed up.

"It's okay, you have to do things lightly, now he Wei Bao is strong! We are newly defeated, and we don't give more benefits to win people's hearts, who is willing to work hard? When the situation improves in the future, the Mongols have many tribes, the people are not aligned, and there has been no improvement since the fall of Dayuan. Nurhachi said indifferently.

"The Great Khan is wise!" The people are convinced.

"Father Khan, if Wei Bao sends someone to ask, although we can use the matter of Cong Gulun's succession to prevaricate, if they ask Father Khan whether he promised to give 10 million taels of silver in compensation, and asked to open Weining Fort and Qinghe Fort first, how can we reply?" Huang Taiji asked.

Nurhachi looked at Fan Wencheng: "Say it." ”

Fan Wencheng was shocked, how dare he talk nonsense about such a big decision? Fan Wencheng is not an immortal, although he is very capable, he can only say some subtleties that have been overlooked, and he really encounters big strategic decisions, and he doesn't have the mind to see it.

"Say it boldly, if it's wrong, I won't blame you." Nurhachi said impatiently.

Even if I think that this Han person has some ability, but in the eyes of the Manchurians, no matter how capable the Han people are, they are dogs, and they have no dignity.

"Oh, Great Khan, I think that since I have thought about delaying it, I can only agree verbally. It's a big deal not to sign a contract for a long time. If you don't sign a contract, you don't have to pay compensation in a hurry, and you don't have to marry Gege in a hurry. Fan Wencheng said.

"Okay, that's a good point, isn't this what Ming people love to do? We have sent people to contact Zu Dashou and Mao Wenlong privately many times, but they didn't say politely any time, but they didn't dare to leave even half a piece of paper. Nurhachi sneered.

"Oh, I understand, Father Khan." Huang Taiji bowed down, and also admired Fan Wencheng's strategy, secretly thinking that with Fan Wencheng by his side in the future, it would be more secure to do things by himself.

Wei Bao had already returned to Shanhaiguan at this time, anyway, there was a madman Tan who stayed on the bank of the Hunhe River to preside over the overall situation, and Wei Bao was also relieved.

As for communication, it's too convenient, Wei Bao can actually go wherever he wants, because in the north, no one can compete with his sailors!

The strength of Mao Wenlong's sailors was less than one-tenth of the treasure army, and Ningyuan's several small broken ships were not worth mentioning.

And these are still ships belonging to the Ming Dynasty series, and they will not be hostile to the treasure army.

By waterway, it is very convenient to transmit messages, transmit supplies, or transport soldiers and horses.

President Wei arrived at Shanhaiguan in the afternoon.

Because the river outside Shanhaiguan is narrow, and the banks are full of strange rocky beaches, it is not suitable for building a large port.

Therefore, President Wei had to change from a big ship to a small boat before he could land directly at Shanhaiguan, otherwise he had to go around Weijiazhuang Port.

Originally, President Wei could have gone to Weijiazhuang first, but thinking that there was nothing wrong, he went directly to Shanhaiguan, which was similar to tourism.

President Wei is indeed a tourist mentality now, and he has made a lot of money, although he has not yet received a good return, but the amount of money he earns is expected, but it depends on how much he earns.

When President Wei got off the ship, he saw piles of human heads still placed on the shore, and asked the officials and generals of Liaoxi and Shanhaiguan who had formed a huge pomp to greet him: "These heads can't be placed in the open air, they don't make a living, and they will be transported to Beijing immediately." ”

"I was going to arrange for someone to set off yesterday, but I don't have any handwritten letters to uphold the imperial court." Wu Sanfeng said flatteringly.

Wei Bao glanced at Wu Xuexia, and then smiled at Wu Sanfeng: "I said uncle, wouldn't it be enough to ask our father to write a notebook newspaper?" Whose handwriting are you waiting for? ”

Wu Sanfeng said softly: "Wait for your brother-in-law, and our father is not weighty, right?" At least there must be a handwritten book by one of the masters, or Sun Chengzong, right? After all, such a great credit is unheard of. Congratulations to your brother-in-law for your miraculous achievements, now you are stabilizing the Wei family and the Wu family and their forces inside and outside the Guan, brother-in-law, your career is just around the corner. ”

Wei Bao smiled, secretly thinking that Wu Sanfeng's thoughts were quite vast and far away.

"It's my negligence, Xuexia, you can write a script in my name now, and let the eldest brother immediately arrange someone to send it to the Beijing Division, although it is cold now, but I can't help but put it for a long time, don't delay it for a few more days, everyone is rotten beyond recognition, it's disgusting." Wei Bao said to Wu Xuexia.

Wu Xuexia kept covering her mouth and nose with a handkerchief, nodded, and couldn't speak.

When she arrived far away from the port, Wu Xuexia wrote a notebook to Wu Sanfeng.

"I'll arrange for someone to ship now, brother-in-law, please rest assured, it will be sent to Jingshi within two days!" Wu Sanfeng assured.

Wei Bao nodded, believing what Wu Sanfeng said, because from Shanhaiguan, to Weijiazhuang, to Funingwei, to Yongping Mansion, cement roads were built, and thieves were easy to walk.

If it weren't for the fact that he couldn't be the home of the Ming Dynasty, Wei Bao really wanted to suggest that he build a road from Ningyuan City to Shanhaiguan, and then build a road from Jingshi to Yongping Mansion.

This is equivalent to connecting all the defense areas of Jiliao and Liaodong.

Jiannu's advantage is cavalry, and the advantage of cavalry is mobility, such a long road is connected, and it is a cement road asphalt road, which can immediately make the speed of Daming up.

But Wei Bao knew that this was a big deal, and when he made such a suggestion, others didn't know what he wanted to do.

If you want to build a road, you should first repair it in Shandong, if you have money, you can donate the road from Shandong to Jingshi, from Shandong to Nanzhili!

No one cares about the donated roads.

Wei Bao knows very well the virtues of the Ming gang, as long as you don't take the silver out, don't pick up the road in vain.

As for the road from Yongping Mansion to Jingshi, even if he is willing to donate money, I am afraid it is inconvenient to bring it up casually, because this is very sensitive, and others still think that he built the road to facilitate the introduction of a large army into Beijing.

Do you want to rebel or do something?

The road from Shanhaiguan to Ningyuan is also like this, it is too good and beautiful, and if you pay for it, you may not be able to sell it well.

Only when Liaodong is very stable and can often win the battle of Jiannu, can the road from Shanhaiguan to Ningyuan be built, and even recapture Jinzhou City in the future, and Jinzhou City and Ningyuan City can also be connected.

Thinking of building shrines for Wei Zhongxian all over the country, Wei Bao is angry and funny, if the money from these tens of thousands of ancestral halls is used to buy cement from the Heaven and Earth Society, not to mention that every village can be connected, at least all counties can be connected, right?

The official road of the Ming Dynasty, the post road, there is nothing to say.

Wei Bao didn't think it was a road, even if it was a post road, there were rocks in many places, and it could be bumpy and fatal to sit in the carriage.

The mottled stone road, no one has walked now, at least this part of Liaoxi, they can only tell the history and glory of the ancient post road in the past.

Wei Bao and Wu Xuexia got into the carriage and headed for Shanhaiguan.

Wei Bao glanced at the busy Wu family.

"I reported it truthfully, and we killed more than 8,800 Jiannu and injured more than 20,000 people. There is no need to count other seizures, this result alone is enough to shock the world. Wu Xuexia said to Wei Bao.

Wei Bao nodded, even in the early years of Wanli, when the Ming army was strong. Nor has there been such a big victory.

When I was about to arrive at Shanhaiguan, I had already received the news, and the lineup to welcome Master Wei was even larger.

Although the garrison of Shanhaiguan is claimed to be 30,000 and is the garrison with the best empty quota, it is actually less than 20,000.

In addition, during this time, it was another physical examination, many people were laid off, and after political training, a little bit of people were laid off.

and there were less than fifteen thousand left.

In addition, more than 3,000 troops were quickly sent by the Bao Army, and they were mixed with it.

At present, the garrison of Shanhaiguan still claims to be 30,000, but in fact it is more than 18,000 people.

It has to be expanded.

The bigger your own people, the better, and the smaller the other people, the better, this is President Wei's routine of seizing power.

There were more than 18,000 people, and the city walls were lined up, and the flags were dense, and everyone was standing in order.

The procession outside the city stretched for three miles, and at a distance of 1,500 meters, there were 6,000 people in one row and 12,000 people in two rows.

The formation is so neat that it can already be like a regular treasure army.

It seems that these people have done nothing wrong in the past ten days of training.

The Ming Dynasty did not have strict rules on the posture of the army or anything.

Therefore, after the Shanhaiguan garrison accepted the reorganization of the treasure army, it was completely different from the army of the Ming Dynasty, and everyone learned to stand in a military posture, walk in military steps, and salute in a military manner.

"Salute!" A clarion call.

The three-mile line raised their hands together.

Of course, the sound can't reach far, so it is impossible for everyone to raise their hands and salute at the same time, but to follow one by one, which is a particularly spectacular scene.

Let a group of officials and generals who came to greet Lord Wei see it and be amazed.

Although everyone has seen Wei Bao plan and fight, but Lord Wei has just won a big victory, they all know it, and now they are even more amazed to see that Lord Wei has completely changed the original Shanhaiguan garrison in just a few days.

In view of the current strict military discipline of the Shanhaiguan garrison, it has been reborn and changed greatly, which can also make people admire Wei Bao.

Wu Xuexia sat in the carriage, sitting tightly next to Wei Bao, full of pride, just before marrying Wei Bao, she was just an ordinary woman, although the daughter of the Wu family would not be despised in Liaoxi, but not many people knew her.

Now, she and Wei Bao are welcoming the attention of thousands of people, what a glory.

Wu Xuexia knows that her own glory is also the glory of the Wu family.

"Lord Wei is back, Lord Wei is back!" Wu Xiang and others, who were waiting at the city gate, saw Wei Bao's long motorcade.

In public, Wu Xiang will not be called a son-in-law, he will be called Xiaobao, and he will also be called Master Wei along with everyone.

Wu Xiang also knows that his current identity has changed dramatically, all thanks to Wei Bao, not his daughter marrying Wei Bao, he is a fart when the generals gather.

In addition to Sun Chengzong, there were also a few Jiliao generals who did not come, and other Jiliao generals, Liaodong and Liaoxi generals, almost all of them were present.

The leader is Gao Di and the three great eunuchs in charge of the army.

In fact, they didn't have to come, it was Gao Di and the great eunuchs who ordered their subordinates to guard them, and they were notified as soon as there was news of Wei Bao's return to Shanhaiguan.

"Master Wei, why did you come back two days late? I'm worried I won't be able to communicate with you. Gaudi hurried up to meet him. I don't know, I thought Wei Bao was Ji Liao Jingluo, and Gao Di was just Wei Bao's secretary.

The three great eunuchs and others also greeted each other according to their positions, huhula, hundreds of people.

Wei Bao said with a smile: "Isn't it like going home when I go in and out of Shanhaiguan, why do you bother to do these pomp." ”

"Yes, Master Wei, you are my great hero." The great eunuch Liu Chao laughed.

Hu Liangfu and Ji Yong also complimented Wei Bao respectively.

Wei Bao said with a smile: "Where am I a hero, my father-in-law has led the troops well, and the Shanhaiguan garrison is effective." And thanks to the help of all the adults and generals, I have achieved small results, and I, Wei Bao, have done nothing personally. What is the matter with me?"

The generals and officials, as well as Gao Di and the three great eunuchs, couldn't help but be embarrassed when they heard this.

They really didn't do anything, just watched the battle, but they didn't expect Wei Bao to share this great credit to everyone?

Even Zu Dashou and Mao Wenlong, who have always been arrogant, couldn't help but secretly admire Wei Bao's bearing.

If others have such a great credit, why don't they ask for credit early? Where to take care of others.

"Aren't we going to talk to Master Wei and see how to write the transcript of the credit?" Gaudi laughed.

Wei Bao understood what Gao Di meant, these people usually take credit and risk their habits, killing a thousand enemies, and they have to write that they kill tens of thousands of enemies to be comfortable.

This time they really killed more than 10,000 enemies, they definitely don't know how to write it, they can't say that they killed millions of enemies, right?
