"Father-in-law, when you were in Yuzhou, you were able to block Xiang Tong's 200,000 army with only 30,000 defenders for more than ten years, I also want to try to see how long I can block you with 100,000 troops?" Shi Luosheng looked resolute.

"So, you're planning to retreat into the city?" Deng Yuanjue's tone was slightly sarcastic.

"Father-in-law, you don't have to make fun of it, you taught me this trick yourself, only fight battles that can be fought and won. Besides, I don't need to stay long, Bai Mengqi, Ning Buqu and Yan Chixing will all lead troops to kill, how should you deal with it then? ”

After listening to this, Deng Yuanjue secretly calculated in his heart, these three people are not easy to deal with, Wu Teng may be able to drag Yan Chixing, so who will deal with Bai Mengqi and Ning Buqu?

"I personally attacked Jeju, it is impossible to withdraw the army because of your words, you Tianluo Sect have to pay something, right?" Deng Yuanjue's tone was not as strong as it was at the beginning.

"This is easy to say, you are my father-in-law, it is right to honor you, what do you think of my Tianluo Sect being willing to pay three million taels of silver as reparations for this war?" Shi Luosheng has calculated, this figure is not a lot, which is equivalent to the financial revenue of Wei for half a year.

"Tut-tut, your Tianluo Sect is really rich, this number does make me a little moved, but I don't want it, I only need one person, if you are willing to hand it over, I will immediately order the withdrawal of the army."

"Who?"

"Xiao Yu."

Xiao Yu is the second prince of the Song Kingdom, if Shi Luosheng uses his name to revive the Song Kingdom under the pretext of reviving the Song Kingdom in the future, the loss brought to himself is far from being comparable to three million taels of silver, so Deng Yuanjue would rather not revenge Deng Wenhao and Xiao Yu's life.

"Impossible, Xiao Yu is now a member of my Tianluo Sect, if I hand him over, then what will the other brothers in the sect think of me?" Shi Luosheng flatly refused.

"Then there's no need to talk about it, let's still divide the victory and defeat on the battlefield." After Deng Yuanjue finished speaking angrily, he didn't look back, and went back to the formation directly.

After half a pillar of incense, the offensive of the Wei army came over like a sea of mountains, Shi Luosheng stood at the head of the city to personally supervise the battle, and the Jeju defenders were not to be outdone when they saw this, giving the Wei army a strong counterattack.

In recent years, Jeju has relied on the geographical advantages of Xianghu Lake, the economic development speed is extremely fast, and the people live a rich life, and they know in their hearts that they can have such a life today, and the trade of the Tianluo Sect overseas has a great relationship, so when the Wei army attacked the city, the people spontaneously helped the defenders to defend the city together.

"Deng Yuanjue's style of play is too consuming for both of us." Yang Yi looked at the Wei army under the city like a tide, and couldn't help frowning.

"Father-in-law knows that time is not in their favor, if the Wei army can't take Jeju quickly, by the time Bai Mengqi and Yan Chixing send troops, the situation will be completely reversed." Shi Luosheng explained.

"What the prince said is right, as long as we can hold for three months, Emperor Wei can only accept peace." Guo Xu also agreed.

"Sect Leader Yang, I have a letter here, you send someone to Chizhou to find Taishou Shen Rihua, if he is willing to agree to surrender to us after reading it, then let Yue Shouming of Taihu Lake land from Chizhou and lead the army to attack Shuzhou." Shi Luosheng is ready to use a chess piece that was planted many years ago.

"Shen Rihua? Does this person also have anything to do with our Tianluo Sect? "Guo Xu has been an official in the Song Kingdom for nearly thirty years, although he has heard of such a person, but he doesn't know that he is actually a member of the Tianluo Sect.

Shi Luosheng smiled slightly: "I haven't seen Shen Taishou for more than ten years, when Xiao Yan was still the prince, I had secretly visited Xu County with him. At that time, Shen Rihua was only a county minister of Xu County, and later offended Tian Yufeng, the younger brother of Taiwei Tian Yulong, because of greed, and was almost beheaded, but I saved him and recommended him to be the county magistrate of Xu County. I didn't expect him to be the Taishou of Chizhou now, but I don't know if he still recognizes the love back then. ”

"It turns out that there is still this relationship in it." Guo Xu thought for a while and said: "According to common sense, it has only been less than a year since Emperor Wei usurped the throne, and these original local officials of the Song State will not have much identification with him. And Shen Rihua and the prince have this relationship, I think it shouldn't be difficult to persuade him. ”

"Oh? Does Guo Taishou have any good suggestions? Yang Yi hurriedly asked.

"Chizhou is close to Shouchun and far away from us. Shen Rihua will definitely be worried that after he surrenders to us, Chizhou will not be able to hold it. It's better for us to promise Shen Rihua that if he is willing to surrender, we will arrange for him to go to Jinxing to be the Taishou, and as for Chizhou, it will be handed over to us to take over, so he doesn't have to worry about it. ”

"Yes, this is a way, Jinxing is much more developed than Chizhou, although Shen Rihua is a little utilitarian, but he is also a good politician, I can rest assured that Jinxing will be handed over to him." Shi Luosheng thought about it for a moment and decided to adopt Guo Xu's opinion.

"Then the subordinates will arrange it, but relying on Yue Shouming's sailors, I'm afraid it's not enough to defend Chizhou, right?" Yang Yi asked worriedly.

"Chizhou will definitely not be able to hold it, it is just a bargaining chip for me to negotiate with Deng Yuanjue. As long as we can get Qi and Wei to withdraw their troops this time and give us another five years for peaceful development, I am confident that even if they join forces again in the future, they will not be our opponents. Shi Luosheng is full of confidence.

Half a month later, Yan Chixing sent troops from Jiangdu to attack Chuzhou, which was defended by Wu Teng, and at the same time asked Wu Changchen under his command to send troops from Handan to recover part of Yanzhou taken by Deng Wenying.

A month later, Bai Mengqi pacified the people, leaving Gao Kegong to guard Sucheng, and he took his two sons, as well as Wang Chiji, Yin Baoli and others from Qingzhou to attack Yulin City of Wei.

Then Shen Rihua, the Taishou of Chizhou of Wei, issued a document scolding Deng Yuanjue for usurping the throne and killing Emperor Xiao Yan of the Song Dynasty, and called on the people of the whole country to rise up to resist, and he himself took Xiao Yu, the second prince of Chizhou to surrender to the Song State.

In addition, the two armies of Qi did not make any progress, the Hanzhong battlefield was still a stalemate, and on the Nanjun battlefield, Tian Wuji wanted to sneak attack Xiao Yu, but he didn't expect that the commander of the Tianluo army was also secretly replaced by Ling Zhen, and as a result, the Qi army not only did not succeed, but suffered a small loss.

"Your Majesty, although we have made preparations in advance and arranged for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to go to Yulin to garrison, but we didn't expect Shen Rihua to rebel, there can be a direct threat to Shouchun, and the last general suggested that General Wenjie send troops from Zhoukou to recover Chizhou. Now that we are forming an alliance with the Qi State, it is expected that Xiang Chu will not dare to send troops alone to attack us. Zhou Yunjing reported to Deng Yuanjue with a tired face, in the past month, he has attacked Jeju day and night, and his rest time is much less than before.

Deng Yuanjue shook his head: "That's not necessarily, our alliance with the Qi State is only superficial, and they may instruct Xiang Chu to sneak attack Zhoukou, so the troops on Wen Jie's side can't move." ”

"What about Shuzhou and Huicheng? The defenders there are only 5,000 people, and they are not Yue Shouming's opponents at all. Zhou Yunjing said urgently.

"Order the siege to stop, you go for me to make an appointment about the stone to rise, and tomorrow at noon, I will see him."

"Your Majesty wants to accept the peace of the Tianluo Sect?"

Deng Yuanjue nodded and did not speak.

"Father, I said we would come back to the negotiating table sooner or later. Or is the last condition the same, our Tianluo Sect is willing to pay you three million taels of silver as war reparations, what do you think? Shi Luosheng looked at Deng Yuanjue, and the corners of his mouth were smiling.

"I can agree to what you proposed, but the conditions have to be changed, I don't want your compensation, and I don't want Xiao Yu, as long as you return Chizhou to me." Deng Yuanjue shook his head.

"Chizhou?" Shi Luosheng deliberately pretended to be reluctant: "Father-in-law, don't laugh, I can give silver, but the territory must not be ceded." ”

"Hmph, you don't have to act in front of me, didn't you calculate Shen Rihua's move a long time ago? I might as well tell you that returning Chizhou is my bottom line, if you don't agree, then I will not propose peace in the future, and after I go back, I will let Wenjie divide his troops to take Chizhou, and then see if you can hold it. Deng Yuanjue's tone was very angry.

Shi Luosheng saw that his heart was exposed, and his face turned slightly red: "Okay, since my father-in-law has said everything about this, if I don't agree again, I will be a little uninteresting." As long as you lead the army to withdraw from Yuzhou, I will ask Yue Shouming to hand over Chizhou to Wu Shiqi. ”

Half a month later, Jiang Huanchu met with the envoys of the Tianluo Sect in Shangjing, and then Tian Wuji and Sun Zhongmou evacuated from Hanzhong and Nanjun one after another. After another three days, Deng Yuanjue also led the army to evacuate Yuzhou.

After they had withdrawn, Shi Luosheng returned Chizhou to Wei, and at the same time ordered the withdrawal of the various armies from Beihai, Jiaozhou, Shaozhou, and Yulin.

The Tianluo Sect withdrew its troops, and Yan Chixing naturally would not fight with the Wei State anymore, so he collected his troops and returned to Jiangdu. In this three-kingdom melee, the biggest gain was Yan Chixing, who took the opportunity to recover the entire Yanzhou.

And the Qi State and the Tianluo Sect kept their original territory unchanged, Deng Yuanjue's losses were the worst, not to mention the loss of Yanzhou, and the second son Deng Wenhao was also killed in battle.

At the end of the war, the generals returned to Rongcheng, as if they had been discussed in advance, and rushed to the Ming Palace, persuading Shi Luo to ascend the throne as emperor.

Because there was a word at the beginning, Shi Luosheng couldn't shirk it, so he had to follow everyone's wishes, ascended the throne as the emperor in Rongcheng, and the founding name was Daming, and canonized Jiang Wan'er as the queen, and the eldest son Shi Zizai as the prince.

Shi pre-expected to serve as the first prime minister of the Ming Kingdom, Ling Zhen as the founding general, Ning Bubend as the great Sima, Liu Zixuan as the general of the chariot cavalry, Bai Mengqi as the hussar general, and Huang Song as the general of Wei. Xun Yuqing, Gao Kegong, Dong Liang, Ni Yun, Yue Shouming and others were all awarded the title of second-rank general and marquis.

In terms of civil service, Shigeharu Takenaka was appointed deputy prime minister and was in charge of overseas political affairs. Wang Lun is the Tai Lieutenant, Yuan Chengce is Situ, Gao Yi is Sikong, Li Shirong is the Great Si Nong, Guo Xu is the Imperial Historian, all of the above are marquises, and other civil officials are also canonized according to the size of their merits.

Since then, the world has officially entered a new era (end of the book).
