On a humble hill more than 200 miles from Saga Town, the top of the mountain is covered by a delicate curtain, surrounded by samurai dressed in the uniforms of the Wa Kingdom and the Silla Kingdom, and the bright weapons in their hands reflect a cold light in the sun, and in the curtains, there is a pleasant sound of silk and bamboo, which dilutes the atmosphere of slaughter.

In a certain huge gray cowhide tent in the drapery, a dozen men in Confucian robes and armor were sitting together, with exquisite dishes and drinks in front of them.

In the middle was an old man with white hair, with a kind face, with a light cloud and breeze on his face, as if the left and right sides were staring at each other, which did not disturb his interest at all.

"Everyone, please!"

The old man picked up the wine bottle in front of him, looked left and right, and said: "You must not want to see the lives ruined, the soldiers buried in the ...... of the homeland, His Majesty the Tang Emperor wishes the world to be stable, the people to be rich, the culture to be prosperous, the song and dance to be leveled, the swords and guns into Kuma and put Nanshan, you all encourage it, please drink this cup together!" ”

A middle-aged man wearing the official uniform of the Japanese State on his left hand arched his hand in the direction of the west and said: "Da Shilang said very much, I think that my Japanese country is in the place of the rising sun, and I have admired the Tang culture for a long time, and I look at the Tang Dynasty everywhere, listen to the teachings of the Tang Emperor, and send envoys to the Tang Dynasty ...... without fear of hardships and dangers." However, he didn't want the wolf son of Silla to be ambitious and ignorant, so he brazenly sent troops to attack the Japanese state, causing the displacement of the people of the Japanese country and the death of hundreds of thousands. If it weren't for the common people of the Japanese Kingdom who fought against the enemy and crippled the hands of the beasts of the Silla Kingdom, I don't know what heinous crimes they would have committed, which is hateful, infuriating, and lamentable! ”

"Nonsense, nonsense!"

As soon as the middle-aged man's voice fell, an official of Silla State on the other side slapped the case and said angrily: "Kibi Zhenbei, don't reverse black and white, my Silla army is a righteous army, conform to the principles of heaven, there is a way to fight without a way, my king heard that the Japanese state is not disciplined, traitors are in power, and there are demons in the court, adhering to the righteousness of friends to help the Japanese country, how did it get into your mouth, it became an invasion!" ”

If you talk about it in detail, the Silla State sent troops this time because of the invitation and demagogy of the Japanese opposition, and the two sides have an ulterior secret, and they know each other tacitly, so naturally they will not break it at this time, but will desperately cover it up.

And this time, the negotiation lineup sent by the two countries is very luxurious, on the side of the Japanese state is the second person in the imperial court, Kibi Jinbei, and on the side of the Silla country, Park Youxing of the military department, which shows the sincerity of both sides.

Both sides are unwilling to continue fighting, otherwise there will be no Tang mediation to make anything.

The mediation envoys of the Tang Dynasty were naturally Da Xixun, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, and Zhang Wanqing, the Langzhong of the Ministry of Rites, who had been lobbying between the Wa Kingdom and the Silla Kingdom for several months, and almost lost patience.

Da Xixun only knew that there was a feud between the Wa Kingdom and the Silla Kingdom, and the two sides would fight every few years, and Datang didn't bother to care about this rotten matter between the two countries.

Although Da Xixun guessed that the real purpose of Li Longji's mediation this time might be to find Zhen Qian, but why should he look for Zhen Qian, Da Xixun is a veteran who naturally won't really be stupid to believe it, just by virtue of Zhen Qian's identity as the deputy envoy sent Tang to greet and send off, Li Longji can send two officials of the Ministry of Rites to find it, there must be some secrets that he doesn't know?

In fact, Da Xixun is also playing soy sauce, and the matter of mediating the war is simple and simple, and it is difficult to say that it is difficult, the key is to see how much deterrence the mediator side has, and secondly, to see whether the two sides of the war are ready to continue the war, and finally to see the skill of the mediator.

can achieve the position of the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, Da Xixun is not a mediocre talent, and he found out that this war was strange, so he put the matter of finding Zhen Qian in the first place.

However, after investigating by Da Xixun, he found that Zhen Gan's disappearance had nothing to do with the two countries, and the biggest suspect turned out to be the pirate Nine Ghost Jialong entrenched in Xikaido.

Listening to both the Japanese and Silla countries pushing the responsibility of the war to each other, Da Xixun smiled and said: "The two countries are neighbors by the water, they should put aside their prejudices, look forward to the future, and support each other's development. ”

"Humph!"

The negotiators of the two countries snorted coldly, although they were unwilling in their hearts, but in fact, if they continued to fight, what benefits would both countries gain, and they should consider how to gain more benefits in the negotiations.

Both the Emperor of the Japanese Kingdom and King Kim Heon-young of Gyeongdeok of Silla wanted to end the war as soon as possible, but how to end it could not lose the face of the two countries, and this was even related to the status of the envoys of both sides in the country.

"Silla sent troops to attack the Wa State, and the Wa State demanded that Silla compensate for all losses caused by the war and hold the party that started the war accountable, otherwise the Wa State would never agree to an armistice!"

"Joke! If you want to make compensation, you must first calculate the losses caused by the invasion of Silla by the Japanese invaders over the years, and then talk about it, and the economic blockade of Silla by the Japanese must also ......be lifted. ”

The grievances between the two sides can't be said clearly for ten days and ten nights, which has long become a confused account, but the two sides don't lose the battle, and no one wants to be the one who provoked the war, and they all say that they are victims, and Da Xixun has a headache when he listens.

Da Xixun saw that there was no possibility of mediation between the Wa Kingdom and the Silla State at all, and now it was just that both sides could not fight, so he agreed to Da Xixun to mediate.

Zhang Wanqing, who was sitting next to Da Xixun, finally couldn't help but say: "The Tang Emperor can't bear to get the two countries into a war, causing misery, if both countries are willing to sit down and end this war, it is better to give a step, the Japanese state agrees that the Silla army will return to the Silla country, and the Silla country will withdraw from the occupied Tsushima Island and Yiqi Island, how can there be no loss in the war, and the two sides should not talk about any compensation, after the armistice, the sea area between the two countries will be demarcated, and the business and trade between the two countries will be agreed, and both sides will show the sincerity of the armistice, Once a year, envoys are sent to each other to exchange friendship and eliminate differences and ....... ”

"Then let's ask Silla to show sincerity first!" Kibi Jinbei didn't expect to get any oil and water out of the Silla Kingdom, and the war caused violent turmoil in the Wa Kingdom, and the later it dragged on, it was likely to get out of control completely.

"It's ridiculous, why should Silla show sincerity first, Silla is the victorious side......!"

Park Youxing is a hardliner in Silla State, and he played a role in fueling the war, but now that the Japanese State has cut off the retreat of the Silla army, Park Youxing has to consider saving tens of thousands of Silla troops back to the country first, and he is naturally unwilling to show weakness.
