Chapter 0608 Compromise is also a strategy
Luo Yunxiao has indeed begun to stab the Eastern Jin Dynasty. According to the normal historical trajectory, the Eastern Jin Dynasty at this time had already been destroyed by the former Qin, if it weren't for Luo Yunxiao's butterfly wings waving here, thus changing the trajectory of time and space, the Eastern Jin Dynasty may have withdrawn from the stage of history more than 10 years ago.
Since that Sima Zilong took advantage of the Dahua soldiers to point to Qianqin and relieve the siege for them, not only did he not give the slightest return, but he intensified his efforts, and quickly went south with 1.2 million men and horses, and even wanted to reassign Dahua to their territory. For such a mad and extremely poor scumbag, Luo Yunxiao has really reached the point where he is unbearable and unbearable. From this moment on, he made up his mind to turn the Eastern Jin Dynasty into the past.
After Luo Yunxiao thought about it for a while, he decided to negotiate an armistice with Qianqin. He made this decision based on the following two considerations. The first consideration is to free up his hands first, completely remove the declining dynasty of the Eastern Jin Dynasty from the map of the world, and finally let it become a part of the Great Hua Kingdom.
Another consideration is that it is far from the time to tear up face with Qianqin. Former Qin is of course very powerful, but in their north, west and other places there are several countries that are more powerful than the former Qin, if once the former Qin is destroyed, it will be equivalent to opening a natural barrier in front of them, which is extremely unfavorable to the development of the Great Hua Kingdom.
When Qin sent someone to propose peace talks, Luo Yunxiao agreed without hesitation. However, he still put forward an additional condition, which was to let Fu Bao, the third son of Fu Zhen, the Great Khan of the former Qin State, go to the capital of Dahua as a proton, that is, let him go to Jiaozhou, the capital of Dahua State, to live.
What is a proton? It is to send one's own people to the enemy or other countries as hostages, and most of them are noble-born people such as princes or princes. At that time, Qin Shi Huang's father, Qin Zhuangxiang Prince Chu, Qin Shi Huang's great-grandfather Qin Zhaoxiang Wang, and the Warring States Yan Prince Dan all used to be protons. This is a product of the times, and it can be regarded as a fashion and a trend in this feudal era.
In Luo Yunxiao's opinion, if there is a prince of Former Qin as a hostage, it can at least guarantee that for a long time in the future, Former Qin will be afraid of his own prince in the hands of others, and he will not dare to have the intention of invading the south casually, so as to better play the role of a natural barrier for Dahuaguo.
When Fu Sheng heard Luo Yunxiao put forward such a harsh condition at the beginning, he was very angry and indignant, and even almost broke off the peace talks, but he thought about it carefully, and finally calmed down, and slowly felt that the condition proposed by Luo Yunxiao was not excessive. In this feudal era, it was not uncommon for countries to fight wars, and the victorious side asked the defeated side to use protons to ensure that the country was not destroyed.
Although it is said that they were not defeated in this war, they are far from the point where they have to hand over the proton. But the problem is that if there is a fire in the backyard of your house, if you don't save it, then the home will be burned down, and then I'm afraid there will be only one way to sing the song "Where is there no heaven and earth?" Where can there be a home without land? How can you be without a home? Without you, there would be no dry wine for me, and there would be no sale left.
Of course, Fu Sheng would never have sung this song if the wine was sold, he didn't know what the wine was if it was sold? Fu Sheng's meaning in his heart was actually saying that once the Great Khan Fu Zhen, the former Qin heaven, was gone, then his land would become a rootless duckweed, floating from now on. Therefore, if you want to save this day, you must make compromises and make concessions, and when necessary, sacrificing the life freedom of the third prince will become an inevitable choice.
Fu Sheng immediately sent people to the capital to persuade the Great Khan Fu Zhen, and persuaded the third prince Fu Bao to follow Luo Yunxiao to go to Dahua Kingdom to be a proton. Although Fu Zhen is very reluctant to leave his son and live in a distant foreign land, but now he can't take care of so much, Fu Ji's rebels are under pressure at the moment, and he is now difficult to protect himself, where can he have time to care about his son's fate and future. And now mobilizing the army of Fu Sheng back to King Qin is the most urgent priority!
In the end, under the premise that Fu Bao, the third prince of the former Qin, the princess, and the concubine and a group of 15 people came to Luo Yunxiao's side as hostages, the million-strong army of the Great Hua Kingdom withdrew from the land of the former Qin in a very orderly manner, retreated to Yongzhou, and retreated to their own country.
Besides, Luo Yunxiao left part of his men and horses to continue to strengthen the defense forces of Yongzhou and Yizhou, while he himself and a group of senior generals led 20 divisions and iron cavalry troops, sharpshooter divisions, and special divisions to directly point to Jiangzhou, preparing to completely bury Sima Zilong, a poisonous dragon, in the land of Dahuaguo, and lock him here firmly and permanently.
By the time Luo Yunxiao led the army to Jiangzhou, the battle that took place here was basically coming to an end, and at this time, the remaining men and horses on Sima Zilong's side had dropped sharply from 1.2 million to about 500,000. In addition to the more than 400,000 horses killed and seriously wounded in battle, during this period, more than 300,000 people fled en masse, and the remaining less than 500,000 troops were already panicked and uneasy.
When Luo Yunxiao led nearly 700,000 horses to appear in front of the remnants of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, he suddenly shocked Sima Zilong, and his seven orifices smoked, and the whole person lost a trace of his former vitality, and he already had a premonition in his heart that his end was coming.
There is no need to say anything, Sima Zilong and his remnants were defeated, and the tragic ending is conceivable. Under the heavy siege of the 1.5 million army of the Great Hua Kingdom, there were fewer and fewer people around Sima Zilong, and finally even the senior generals at the level of hussar generals also chose to surrender, and Sima Zilong had no choice but to flee to a river with less than 10,000 die-hard followers.
However, there was not even a single boat to be seen on the surface of the river, except for the rolling waves churning. Without a boat, you can't cross the river, and you can't escape Luo Yunxiao's clutches. Sima Zilong scolded his mother with strong hatred, revealing a dead pig scalded by boiling water, looking at the middle of the river with blank eyes, and he didn't know what kind of little Jiujiu he was still thinking about in his heart.
There is no road in front, there are chasing soldiers behind, at a very critical juncture, Sima Zilong is even so desperate that he is ready to give up, and suddenly he saw more than 10 boats floating from the north bank of the river, Sima Zilong saw the flag fluttering in the wind on the mast of the ship, and his eyes suddenly lit up, those ships are the sailors of their Eastern Jin Dynasty! At this moment, he felt that he was finally saved, and the whole person relaxed, and the soak of urine that he had been holding for a long time was completely empty with his relaxation.
