The Lightning River is also called the Shangdu River, which originates between the mountains, flows through the old Shangdu City, Dushikou, Duolunuoer, and then goes all the way south into Beizhili, becoming the well-known Luanhe River in Guannei, and finally joins the sea from Tianjin. Entering the middle of August, it is the time when the grassland water and grass are abundant, the autumn breeze comes slowly and the green waves are rolling, the lightning river is like a jade belt entwined in the meantime, adding a beautiful scenery to the beautiful Jinlian River grassland, in the days when there is no war, the cattle and sheep wander leisurely, the smoke rises, and the Mongolian and Han people can enjoy the tranquility and tranquility given to them by God. However, the swarming iron cavalry broke the silence, the flags covered the grassland, the horn sounded, and the Fengzhou army and the Jin army camped across the river, and this grassland became a battlefield for confrontation between the two sides.

The negotiations between Fengzhou and the Jin State were agreed to be held on the east bank, and the Flying Tiger Camp waded across the river before dawn, quickly controlled a large grassland by the river, and then set up a cavalry formation to guard - Dolgon is a dangerous person, this guy has learned too many intrigues and tricks, Li Yu also has to guard against him, just in case, there are ten artillery pieces and hundreds of Fengzhou troops equipped with lifting guns and infantry guns hidden in the grove on the opposite bank, and the Jin army is also facing the enemy less than a mile apart, and five hundred elite iron cavalry are lined up early.

It was almost noon, Li Yu, Liu Xingzuo, Asari and Buyantu, who had just arrived, arrived at the meeting place, and Chang Shu, who was specially pulled to play the round, was naturally indispensable, his situation was the most embarrassing, his identity was the ambassador of Jinguo trade, but emotionally he was more and more inclined to Fengzhou, if it weren't for the repeated persuasion of his good friends Na Mu'er and Yunrong, plus Li Jianji promised to find him some more books from the customs to tempt, he really didn't want to wade into this troubled water. On the Kim side, Dolgon, Yueto, Sakhalian, and Hauge participated in the negotiations together, and they also arrived almost at the same time, which was basically the highest-level meeting between the two sides.

Except for Buyantu, the two sides were relatively unfamiliar, and the others didn't need to be introduced, so they sat down together after a few simple greetings, and talked while eating, but Dolgon suddenly became difficult, pointed at Asari and said: "I know him, he used to be my father Khan's bodyguard, a rebellious minion, what qualifications do you have to sit here?" ”

Asari's eyes immediately erupted with anger, and his hand involuntarily pressed on the hilt of the knife, Li Yu pressed him, pointed at Dolgon and shouted coldly: "You are insulting me, he is a minion, so am I a minion?" ”

"Asari is a praise painting in Fengzhou's military affairs praise painting, and he is the governor of the city, which is equivalent to my country's third-class Angbang Zhangjing, and Murgen Daiqing doesn't have to mind." Chang Shu hurriedly played the round, and Yue Tuo also quietly pulled Dolgon, and the guy closed his mouth, tilting his head and never looking at Asari again.

"There are still too few battles fought in Murgen Daiqing, and I don't understand the hardships and dangers of military exploits, and my governor of Fengzhou has come out of the sea of corpses and blood all the way, no worse than the identity of your country's Angbang Zhangjing," Li Yu sarcastically said coldly, and without waiting for Dolgon to return the favor, his face changed and said seriously, "Zhushen speaks straightforwardly, I will never let you outside the Xuanfu border, I must plan for the long-term development of Fengzhou, whoever dares to rob me will fight whoever I want, whether it is Jin or Ming." ”

With the absolute superiority of the force for three days, the Dushikou was not defeated, Erlu's waist was stiffened, Yue Tuo and the three couldn't help but glance at Dolgon, Dolgon blushed and pointed at Li Yu and Liu Xingzuo and roared: "Erlu, Aita, Dajin treats you well, but what have you done, we fight Jinggi and you sneak attack, we fight Dalinghe and you sneak attack, and now the old trick is repeated, you two treacherous villains, dare to rob the border of Xuanfu today, tomorrow maybe you will have the audacity to attack Liaodong, I Dajin soldiers are the best in the world, believe it or not, we destroyed Fengzhou?" ”

"Morgen Daiqing, you can't scare us, maybe in the future we will really fight Liaodong, no, it is to liberate Liaodong." Asari wouldn't let Dorgon go, and replied with a triumphant wave.

"Rebellion!" Dolgon jumped up and drew his knife, Asari's hand was faster, the knife in his hand was pointed at Dorgon's neck, the guards on both sides immediately rushed up and stabbed each other, Chang Shu's face was frightened and white, standing in place at a loss, Yue Tuo immediately got up and drank back the guards, Liu Xingzuo also angrily kicked Asari away, after the guards retreated, everyone sat down again and continued to talk.

"Morgen Daiqing, I admit what you say, I was originally the dog of Fengzhou, and I didn't plan to be a gentleman, but I really did it with a knife and a gun, but what about you, you sent someone to Beijing to say bad things about me and spread rumors about me, this set of counter-plotting methods can only be thought of by Hanchen around you, this is not a gentleman's doing, right? I also have people in Jingshi, and I know your every move. Li Yu said quietly as he drank tea.

Dolgon was so angry that he was about to vomit blood, this is what he did, and he couldn't repay the debts if he wanted to-Fan Wencheng and Gao Hongzhong's group of Hanchen gave him ideas, and sent people to infiltrate the old bottom of Li Yu in Beijing, and by the way, he created rumors to provoke the court to be suspicious of Li Yu, but this trick was useless, the court never trusted Li Yu, this guy did too many bad things, Ling Chi he couldn't get angry ten times, but Li Yu was too strong, not only couldn't mess with him, but also coaxed him not to make trouble, saying bad things about Li Yu was to block the courtiers and destroy the stability of the Ming Dynasty, As a result, the meticulous work sent to the Beijing division was not only fruitless, but also a few unlucky people were caught and chopped up by the Jinyi guard.

Liu Xingzuo added another fire: "Morgen Daiqing, when Lao Khan was alive, he said that you were stupid to read, you are less and less like Zhushen, but more like a Han person, and you are the one we distrust the most in Baylor." ”

"Yes, I also think he looks like an untrustworthy and self-righteous Ming countryman, can you change someone?" Buyantu immediately chimed in.

Oh no, Dorgon became the target of the other party, and the Baylors were secretly happy in their hearts, and even coaxed and deceived this thunderous guy to the side, and the most cunning and treacherous Dorgon was pressed down as soon as he appeared on the scene.

"Okay, let's talk about it in the way of Lao Zhushen, we have bled outside the Xuanfu, and we can take it if we want to, but we have to pay the price, it's fair," Yue Tuo looked serious, pointed at Li Yu and Liu Xingzuo and reminded, "Don't fool around with the signboard of the Mongolian Khanate, the Mongolian Khanate has long disappeared, and even Chahar Khan himself is embarrassed to mention it, today is my Dajin to talk to you Fengzhou." ”

"I must tell you that we believe that if the people who live in one place form a community, and voluntarily exclude foreign interference and maintain each other with this community, then this community is an independent country, and you have thought about it, and to talk to Toyosu means to recognize the equal status of Toyosu and Jin." Buyantu replied.

"Yes, but you must also openly ally with my Dajin, you are an independent country, this is not difficult, right?" Saharan said with a sneer.

Of course, it is embarrassing, an open alliance with the Jin State is to declare war on the Ming State, how dare Bu Yantu agree, Li Yu pondered and waved his hand: "We have our reality, there are some things that don't have to be talked about now, you put the Xuanfu outside our mouth is just waiting to bargain, just say your conditions." ”

"Accept the Zazak system, declare yourself a vassal to Dajin, or openly form an alliance with us to jointly crusade against the Ming Kingdom, we can support you to establish the Khan state, and you can't always hide behind us and take advantage." Haoge raised his head proudly and said to Li Yu, "Erlu, we are originally a family, let's live together, Father Khan said to treat you as his own son, go back to Shengjing to seal Dorobelle, if you don't go back, you will be sealed Khan, it's good enough for you." ”

"Also, your hearts are too dark, and the customs tax levied on the export of grain and cloth to our country is more than double the value of the goods, who is feeding whom?" Sakhalian also roared angrily.

Liu Xingzuo immediately replied: "Fengzhou believes in 'freedom, equality, and benevolence', which is completely different from the Jin State, we still go our own way, and it is even more impossible to crusade against the Ming Kingdom together, you can't get on the ship of the Ming Kingdom and want to drag us into the water, don't dream, the Fengzhou Council will definitely not be able to pass." ”

"We are heavily taxed on grain and cloth, but we have never forced you to buy it, and you can also impose heavy taxes on ginseng and skins, we will never mind." Buyantu said with a smile.

The Jin Guo Baylors were angry, jumped up and quarreled with Liu Xingzuo and Buyantu, Chang Shu started to play a round again, but was pushed to the ground by the angry Yue Tuo, Li Yu waved his hand to signal everyone to sit down, and then thought about it and said: "Actually, there is already an alliance between us, I can promise again to support you to enter Gyeonggi and promote peace by force, once the imperial court agrees to call you vassals, we will immediately form an open alliance, and I can also guarantee that if you fail and the Ming army attacks Liaodong, then as long as they cross the line of Guangning, Our army will also take action against the front line of Xuanda, and at your request, we can also send troops into Liaodong to deal with the Ming army with you. ”

"My Daikin will never fail." Yue Tuo said coldly.

"We are also very short of food and cloth, and we have no choice but to levy heavy taxes, but my Fengzhou is developing with each passing day, and ordnance, ironware, paper, and ceramics are now capable of producing, and there is also a new kind of woolen cloth, you must also like it, as long as you exchange silver for our silver banknotes to buy, the price will be preferential, you can also export wool, ginseng, and skins can also be sold to the south in large quantities through us, so that the losses you suffer can also be made up," Li Yu continued, and the three Baylors gradually calmed down, While listening, he whispered quietly, but Li Yu's subsequent words angered them again, "I have made so many concessions, you must also make a statement, the west of Duolunuoer will be the territory of my Fengzhou in the future, the Xilamulun River and Karaqin will be ceded to you, and the middle zone will be used as a buffer zone between Fengzhou and Jin, and neither side is allowed to send troops to enter." ”

"Erlu, I think you're like a profiteer." Saharan scoffed, then laughed alongside Yueto and Hauge.

Li Yu stood up and clapped his hands vigorously a few times, and then said coldly: "You will march from Shengjing to the border of Xuanfu for a month, and it will take a month to march urgently, it would be good to be optimistic about Xilamulun River and Karaqin, it is better to be realistic, but I will not let you suffer." ”

After a while, Gao Heizi and a few guards escorted a young man over, Gao Heizi also handed a package to Li Yu, the young man's face was pale, and when he saw the Baylors, he knelt on the ground and kowtowed, Li Yu opened the package and looked at the three Baylors very proudly, and one of the big seals inside appeared.

"We didn't send anyone to steal." Hauge, who was outspoken, immediately slipped out.

"I never knew about it." Chang Shu pleaded innocently.

"Misunderstanding, misunderstanding, it has nothing to do with us, we don't know this person." Yue Tuo and Sakhalian also hurriedly dissociated themselves, and the young man burst into tears.

The young man in front of him is Nan Chu who stole the jade seal of the country - after the Morgen Lama was driven away by Li Yu, he took refuge in Tiancong Khan, and presented the golden book of "Kangyur" and the Golden Buddha of Mahagara, Tiancong Khan likes these things, but unfortunately the jade seal of the country is still in the widow of Chahar Khan, Sutai, fortunately, the stupid boy of Erlu does not know the goods, and immediately sent Nan Chu to his sister to steal, but he did not expect that the family would get all the stolen goods, which is too embarrassing and must not be admitted.

"Count me as stealing," Li Yu pointed to his nose and said, this is really what he instructed Zhang Shi'an to steal, for this matter Su Tai swore to stay in his house for the rest of his life, but Li Yu can't think about Su Tai now, and he doesn't dare to say that this is a broken stone, pick up the jade seal and talk nonsense, "What a good baby, look at this color, look at this head, look at this ......, anyway, it can be worth a lot of money, since Sibeile likes it, even if I honor his old man, but I have to play for two days first, you can report it to his old man first." ”

"Erlu, don't cheat!" Haoge couldn't hold his breath, this was an artifact that symbolized the unification of the country, and he was afraid that Li Yu would turn his face and deny it.

"I'm a good talker, as long as Sibeile agrees to what I say, I'll offer this thing immediately," Li Yu patted his chest and promised, stood up and grabbed a person from the Jin Army's guards and left, "He will go back with me to testify." ”

"Brother Erlu, don't press my neck." Ao Bai was holding his head and shouting, and Haoge smiled and waved his hand to let him go with Li Yu.

After Li Yu and his party left, the Baylors of the Jin Kingdom immediately got together to discuss, and they all thought that this matter was not trivial, and they should take advantage of the fact that the Ru gang did not find out the market and quickly settle the matter, and Dolgon also wrote a letter to explain the great significance of this matter, and the messenger and Nan Chu set off on the same day.

Tiancong Khan had been thinking about the battle ahead, and before the autumn harvest was completely over, he and Da Beile led the army from Shengjing to the border of Xuanfu, and met the messenger on the way. After reading the letter, Tiancong Khan nodded again and again, this deal is very good - to be honest, the open land thousands of miles away is also a burden to hold in your hands, it is more realistic to hold the Xilamulun River and Karaqin, Erlu, this kid is still filial, he has the title of Chahar Dajinong, and it is of far-reaching significance to present the jade seal of the country, and the national fortune of the unification of the world may be transferred to the Dajin country.

Tiancong Khan was in a good mood, rewarded Nan Chu, and sent Qi Chongge, a scholar from the literary hall, to make a special trip to Dushikou to make a peace treaty with Fengzhou, as for Erlu to use the name of Fengzhou or continue to fight the broken flag of the Mongol Khanate, it doesn't matter, no matter what, he must bring back the jade seal of the country, and then return to China with Dai Shan - there are still a lot of bad things waiting for him in Dajin Kingdom.

"Brother, I can't even recognize you like this." Li Yu hugged Qi Chongge, who he hadn't seen for many years, this guy's face was dusty, and his clothes were also speckled.

"It's not for your business, one man and three horses are hurrying day and night, and the camp is just saying hello and running to you, quickly find me new clothes," Qi Chongge broke away from Li Yu, asked for a basin of water to wash his face, and said to Li Yu, "The Great Khan asked me to pass on a message, Zhushen is too weak to withstand the big wind and waves, Erlu is the hero of Zhushen, and he must also take on the responsibility of protecting Zhushen." ”

Liu Xingzuo walked into the big tent at this time, they were all old acquaintances in Shenyang back then, and after a few words of greeting, they sat down together, Qi Chongge drank a few sips of milk tea, and then lowered his voice and said: "Erlu, Aita, the Great Khan does not treat you as outsiders, there is a big thing to tell you in advance, we are going to change the name of the clan, in the future, we will not be called Zhushen, but Manchuria, all the people in the Eight Banners, whether Zhushen, Mongolian, Han, and whether he is a nobleman or Aha, will be Manchurians in the future, and the Great Khan also wants you to join Manchuria." ”

Li Yu and Liu Xingzuo's faces changed, they looked at each other a few times and didn't speak, Qi Chongge continued: "The Great Khan has been difficult these years, the surface of the Dajin Kingdom is in turmoil, but in fact, there are many contradictions between the Zhushen, the Mongolian people and the Han people, between the master and Aha, and even between the Eight Banners, In order to integrate the internal, change the old system, and enhance the strength, the Great Khan hopes that we can join forces, the Ming Kingdom is too strong, if Daikin loses, the next one is you. ”

Li Yu got up and walked back and forth for a while, then stopped and said: "Changing the ethnic group in Manchuria is conducive to realizing the equality of ethnic groups within the Eight Banners, of course we should support it, but the people of Fengzhou are a new ethnic group established according to the concept of 'same race and different customs', and they are still in the stage of integration of various ethnic groups, and they can't withstand too much wind and waves. ”

"Then let's talk about it later," Qi Chongge smiled, it was originally whimsical to let the people of Fengzhou join Manchuria, no one had hope, it was just a greeting in advance, the key was in the back, "We will definitely send troops to Gyeonggi next year, and we must force the Ming court to accept the peace talks, and please try to inform them that Dajin is willing to go to the country name, change the year name, respect the Ming Dynasty as the suzerain, how much the year coin can be discussed, as long as the Ming State recognizes us, we are allowed to trade with each other, but this is the last chance, In the future, the two countries can only negotiate on an equal footing. ”

Liu Xingzuo said: "Don't be too optimistic, the peace agreement between Ming and Jin is beneficial to the people of the world, but it will block the official road and wealth of many people, and some people will definitely not be happy, and they will desperately oppose it." ”

"Then let's beat it hard, and if the dog officials are beaten, they will give the people a way to live." Li Yu hesitated for a while and said.
