Chapter 148: Xia Song Peace Conference
Yang Zaixing didn't have time to explore whether it was a peach blossom luck or a prank, he was a righteous person, and he had to go to the Gyeonggi Road Army camp first to say hello to the brothers.
Qing Xuanzi, Jiang Boyan, and Wang Zhiquan have been waiting in the camp for a long time, and the food and wine have been prepared, just waiting for Yang Zaixing to come, and everyone is lively. The Gyeonggi Road Army produced two princes in a row, which is not only the pride and glory of the whole army, but also a good story that can be famous through the ages.
In fact, in the welcoming crowd when Yang Zaixing came back, everyone had already seen Yang Zaixing. It's just that Yang Zaixing was dazzled at that time, and of course he couldn't see these old friends in the crowd.
Yang Zaixing pushed open the door of the barracks meeting hall and greeted him with a warm welcome from a full audience of generals and old acquaintances.
Yang Zaixing couldn't help but say excitedly: "It's been a long time, brothers, I'm back!" ”
"Wow!" Everyone cheered and gave a warm welcome.
"First of all, I would like to send my greetings to all of you, and I would like to apologize to all of you." Yang Zaixing said.
Qing Xuanzi said: "Apologize? What apologies? "How can you say apologies at such a happy moment.
Yang Zaixing said: "The emperor ordered me to take over the Gyeonggi Road Army, I know that I deserve it, and if I want to take over, I should also choose from all of you, where is my turn, but ......"
It turned out to be this thing, can this also be called a problem?
Everyone gathered around Yang Zaixing, and Wang Zhiquan said: "What are you talking about, where can we bring such a good army?" Only after a general like General Yang returned from abroad, you should be in charge. ”
Yang Zaixing couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed when he heard Wang Zhiquan praise himself like this.
"Yongguo Gong is the most relied on person by the emperor, and let the Lord Guogong take us, we will only become a burden to the adults, just when General Yang is back, we will take General Yang as the backbone again, and help Yongguo Gong serve the emperor well! Never forget our former name - National Self-Salvation Army! Qing Xuanzi said.
Yang Zaixing was moved: "Thank you for your understanding and support!" Let's work together! ”
Jiang Boyan said: "General Yang, let's go, everyone has prepared a big firecracker to welcome you!" ”
Yang Zaixing asked: "What big firecrackers?" ”
Jiang Boyan said: "Haha, thunder! Skyquake Cannon! You'll know when you go! ”
Qing Xuanzi took the lead and said, "This is our strongest weapon, unparalleled in the world!" ”
Yang Zaixing said in disbelief: "It's so powerful, you must open your eyes!" ”
"Under the thunder, see who dares not to surrender!" Wang Zhiquan said proudly.
On the school ground, Yang Zaixing looked at the cannon and couldn't help asking, "How big a bell does this hammer have?" ”
Jiang Boyan smiled and said: "This is a big stick mallet, this is called a cannon!" It was invented by the National Gong and supervised by the Ministry of Works! Come on, I'll show you how to play! ”
Wang Zhiquan asked the artilleryman to load the shell, took the torch and handed it to Yang Zaixing, and said, "General Yang, watch the fuse ignition." ”
After Wang Zhiquan finished speaking, he and the others covered their ears and forced them back.
Yang Zaixing didn't know why, and suspiciously lit the fuse with a torch. Yang Zaixing didn't know to cover his ears, and when the spark burned along the fuse, the "boom" sound was deafening, and Yang Zaixing felt that both ears were buzzing non-stop.
The soldiers around laughed.
Looking at the bombarded target, my obedient man had already been torn apart and wiped out.
Although Yang Zaixing's ears were shocked, he was so pleasantly surprised in his heart. Our Gyeonggi Road Army is invincible! Our Great Song Army is invincible!
But it was said that Li Qianshun fled all the way to the east and finally saw his army. Fortunately, this Lord will be his confidant, otherwise he would have been a sheep in the mouth of a tiger.
Li Qianshun was furious and scolded Li Changzuo for being disloyal and unjust, but he couldn't scold too much, after all, an ancestor came out and scolded, so he could only scold Li Changzuo personally.
The main general Duan Xing persuaded: "Your Majesty, please calm your anger, don't be hurt by this disloyal and unrighteous person." Li Changzuo stealing the country and usurping the throne is against the way of heaven, and it will definitely not last long. As long as Your Majesty sends the letter of begging for thieves to the whole country, the whole country will definitely rebel. At that time, the emperor will welcome back to the dragon throne, and the world will still be His Majesty's world! ”
Li Qianshun said: "It is really a blessing for me to have Aiqing to help. Aiqing rest assured, take Li Changzuo, I will definitely give you the title of king and knight! ”
With the emperor's packing ticket, Duan Xing said excitedly: "Thank you, Your Majesty!" The ministers will not disappoint the emperor's grace! ”
If a general doesn't fight, how can he be promoted? Now such a good opportunity is in front of me, and I must cherish it. Becoming a king or defeating a king, wealth still needs to be sought in danger, how can you determine who is the master of ups and downs so early without tasting a war?
Li Qianshun is now the person who needs this kind of ambition and dares to throw his head and spill his blood, and the two hit it off.
Duan Xing asked: "Your Majesty, Xingqing has been occupied by traitors, and some other prefectures and counties have received coercion and temptation from Li Changzuo, I am afraid that they have either taken refuge or are still waiting on both sides, where should we point next?" ”
Li Qianshun cheered up and said: "I am still here, there is no room for two masters in the world!" As long as we can defeat Li Changzuo, even once, the world will definitely be a vassal of me from above! ”
"Your Majesty, if we attack Xingqing in the west, what can the Song army do behind us?" Duan Xing said worriedly.
"In order to regain the dragon position, I have to suffer some grievances." Li Qianshun said, "If you can bend and stretch, you will be a husband." I can first negotiate peace with the Song general Wu Jue to see what conditions he can accept. The world is bustling, all for profit. The Song army came all the way to a few cities, so what if I promised him? As long as the lure is right, maybe he can be used by me! ”
Duan Xing said: "The emperor is wise! Nachen sent someone to contact Wu Jue. ”
Li Qianshun looked firmly into the distance and said, "Go!" "Dede
However, it was said that Wu Jue had broken through the city all the way, and naturally needed manpower to manage the new city, and remove the dead or wounded all the way, and now he only had 40,000 soldiers and horses.
was about to start a big battle with the eastern defense line of Western Xia, but who knew that the other party actually retreated. In this pursuit, the battle line became longer and longer, and it was difficult to supply and deliver grain and grass, so there was no new supply of grain and grass and could only hold out for another 15 to 20 days.
If you can conquer a new city, you can get food and grass, but this way here, there is no more city. Further on, there are only Jingzhou and Huaizhou around Xingqing.
But it's still early, and there's a big tiger in front of you.
"Report! General, the enemy has just sent a letter indicating that you want to open it personally! ”
Everyone looked at this sudden letter, and they were a little confused, what was the other party going to do, to make peace? Joke!
Wu Ting was a little uneasy, and said, "Uncle, there won't be poison hidden in this letter, right?" ”
Wu Jue said: "The two armies are facing each other, how can they use such despicable means. Don't be afraid, bring it to me and see! ”
Wu Ting nervously presented the letter to Wu Jue. The others persuaded, "General, let's open it." ”
Wu Jue straightened his arm, took the envelope as far away as he could, carefully opened the envelope with a dagger, and then gently poured it out. After a note finally broke free from the envelope, it floated down leisurely, and wherever it floated, the people couldn't help but fall backwards.
Finally, under everyone's gaze, the note lay quietly on the ground, consciously facing up, so that everyone could read the words on it.
Everyone read word by word: "General Wu respectfully enlightens, the two countries of Song and Xia have been friends since ancient times, and this time the general has penetrated into our realm, there must be a misunderstanding." Now the Emperor of Great Xia intends to personally negotiate peace with the general, wash away the hatred and grievances, and wait for the reply. ”
"What do you mean?"
"The Emperor of Western Xia wants to come to the peace talks in person?"
"What's going on?"
Wu Ting said: "This is a letter of peace written by Li Qianshun to the people below us. ”
"General, there won't be any deception in this, right?"
Wu Jue thought about it calmly and said, "Li Qianshun came here quietly to negotiate peace with us, it is very likely that Yongguo Gong has already succeeded in a surprise attack!" ”
"What!?" Everyone exclaimed in unison, Yongguo Gong is too godly, right?
"The old nest of the Western Xia Emperor was served, and he was kicked out!"
"He still wants peace talks? Is there still a possibility of peace talks? He doesn't know that Yongguo Gong and Ningxia Hou are all the way! Wu Ting said with a smile.
Wu Jue said: "It's all possible." ”
"What else to talk about, just give him a slap in the head!" It was said.
Someone else said: "Pretend to talk about peace, and then arrest Li Qianshun!" ”
Wu Jue was scheming, thought for a while, and said: "If our guess is true, then Yongguo Gong and Ningxia Hou will definitely immediately wave their troops to cut down the grass and eradicate the roots. Our army is just in a hurry for food and grass, so it is better to plan and plan for the time being, and temporarily entangled with Li Qianshun, and as soon as Yongguo Gong arrives, let's attack on both sides and catch turtles in the urn! ”
Wu Ting nodded in agreement: "The key is that Li Qianshun doesn't know that Yongguo Gong is with Ningxia Hou. ”
"There's probably more to him than he knows." Wu Jue pointed to the fact that Li Qianshun had been betrayed a long time ago, "Give him Li Qianshun a reply first, saying that we have nothing to talk about!" ”
When everyone was still inexplicable, Wu Ting had already understood that this was to capture the old wow.
Wu Jue asked someone to write a letter and shoot arrows into the enemy camp, telling them: The Great Song Dynasty is here to recover the homeland, and you are all the people of the Great Song Dynasty, so you surrendered early to avoid trouble.
Li Qianshun and the others were furious after reading the letter, and they hated to fight him to the death immediately. If it weren't for the preservation of strength to eliminate Lee Chang-jo.
Duan Xing comforted Li Qianshun and said: "The emperor is angry, endure the calm for a while, and take a step back to open the sea and the sky." During the Three Kingdoms period, after Liu Bei and King Jing of Zhongshan, he was still able to grovel and look at the grass house and Zhuge Liang, a grass people, and finally became a king. Why didn't the emperor reply to him again, explain the pros and cons, and know the pros and cons. Anyway, it's not bad for the time of this letter. ”
Li Qianshun endured it, felt that Duan Xing was reasonable, suppressed the resentment in his heart, and said, "Then write another letter, I think, you write!" ”
After a while, Wu Jue received another flying letter from Li Qianshun.
Everyone's eyebrows, everything is under control.
Wu Ting read the letter and said: "Li Qianshun said that since Song Xia is a compatriot, he should not kill each other, anything can be resolved through negotiation, and if he uses a knife or a gun, it will only hurt innocent people. ”
"Hmph, this little emperor's posture is very low!"
"The more this shows that he has a request for us!"
Wu Jue said: "Reply to him, and see you on the top of the high mountain in the north at three o'clock in the afternoon tomorrow." Thirty men on each side, dressed in profane clothes, and not to carry any weapons! ”
When Li Changzuo and Qu Ping led an army of 70,000 to rush here, Li Changzuo and Wu Jue were already sitting opposite each other on the top of the agreed mountain.
With the warm sun of late spring and the gentle south wind, noon should be the best time to dry the quilt.
Because it was on the top of the mountain, I still felt a little cool when the wind was blowing. Sixty people were uniformly dressed in snow-white profane clothes, and the two sides were separated by 50 meters, sitting on the ground, becoming a dazzling scenery.
