Chapter 1236: Instead of You Colonize, It's Better for Me to Colonize

The day dawned, the dream woke up, the weather cleared, and the fighting on the battlefield in Huanggang Town actually stopped......

Nandi, who is still Nandi, was not tied up and put in a prisoner car. Under his personal command, more than 1,000 or maybe 2,000 elite Jiaozhi soldiers finally reached the level. Relying on the tall courtyard walls and pavilions of the Huang family's mansion, it repelled several waves of attacks by the Song ironclad soldiers.

But the situation is still very critical!

Because His Majesty the Southern Emperor was besieged, the 30,000-strong army collapsed, and there was not much food in the Huang family's mansion. Once there is no food to eat, even the dignified emperor will have to become a prisoner.

Therefore, the Southern Emperor had to send an envoy to sue for peace, on the condition that he would withdraw his troops and return to China, pay tribute to apologize, return the plundered Song people, and return the Guangyuan Prefecture that was ceded to Jiaozhi by Song Shenzong decades ago, and was willing to offer Anbangkou to the merchant ships and warships of the Great Song Dynasty, and he could also pay tribute of 1 million stone rice to the Great Song Dynasty every year, and even let his younger brother Li Chongde go to Kaifeng Mansion as a hostage......

Such conditions are put aside in the past, and they can definitely win a respite for Da Yue.

But at the moment, Li Qiande is really a little uncertain. It's not because the Great Vietnamese Army did a lot of evil when it invaded the Great Song Dynasty this time, but that the Song Army now has the ability to project troops through the sea.

Cochin and the Central Plains are no longer out of reach!

"Boom ......"

A loud bang suddenly interrupted Li Qiande's thoughts, and the emperor of Dayue was startled, and glanced out of the door, it was obviously a sunny day, why was it thundering? Is it a bolt from the blue?

Just at a strange moment, a dragon soldier commander ran in and reported: "Your Majesty, the wall has collapsed!" ”

"The wall? What wall? ”

"The wall of the palace (referring to the Huang family's mansion) somehow collapsed with a bang!"

"Boom ......"

After a while, there was another loud bang!

And then another section of the wall collapsed!

It turned out that the 3,000-pound cannon that was transported by a galleys was firing and demolishing the house!

Although the cannon built by the Jijia Copper and Iron Workshop of the Liguo Supervisor controlled by Ji Yi Investment, although it is also claimed to be 3,000 catties, the caliber is smaller than the 3,000 catties of the Zhou cannon, and the shells used are only 6 catties, and the clearance between the shells and the barrels is too large, and the air leakage is serious. The power has been discounted again.

However, the reduced power of the cannon is still a piece of cake when used against ordinary houses. As soon as the cannon went down, a section of the wall collapsed! After a while, a gap appeared on the east wall of the Huang family's mansion, which was more than ten steps wide and connected together. There were no more soldiers behind the gap, either crushed to death by the collapsed brick wall, or scared away.

Dozens of Mo swordsmen and hundreds of ironclad infantry of the Song State formed a phalanx just outside the gap, ready to attack.

Just when the drums of the attack had not yet sounded, an old minister of Jiaozhi came out of the gap tremblingly with the support of several eunuchs, and shouted in a Chinese dialect with a Jiaozhi accent: "The king of Jiaozhi is here, the generals of the Great Song Dynasty should not fight again, His Royal Highness the king of the county is willing to ask the emperor of the Great Song Dynasty for his guilt, and is willing to be a good minister of the Great Song Dynasty for generations, and is also willing to dedicate Guangyuan Prefecture to the emperor of the Great Song Dynasty, please don't ......fight again."

Qu Duan, Guo Hao, and Tian Shizhong looked at each other, and they all frowned a little.

What is this? Softened? Surrender and lose half? No, the puppet emperor of Jiaozhi Li Zhiqiande has not surrendered yet! He wanted to negotiate peace...... It's all on this part, what else to discuss. After the peace is negotiated, Li Qiande cannot be captured alive and sent to Kaifeng Mansion as a prisoner, and there will be no great merit for destroying the country......

"Ignore him!" Qu Duan snorted, "Let's go in first!" ”

Tian Shizhong, who was born in the Kaifeng Forbidden Army, was a little worried, shook his head and said: "Li Gande is the king of a country after all, and now he proposes peace, whether it is allowed or not, it should be Zhang Xuanshuai who said, we are a martial artist, and we must not exceed our authority." ”

As soon as he said this, Qu Duan had nothing to say, and other civil officials could not take it seriously when they appeased him, but Zhang Xiaochun was a teacher in the Martial Arts Palace after all, and respecting teachers was not civil or military.

Guo Hao stroked his beard, thought about it and said, "It's better to let Li Gande go and talk to Xuan Shuai himself." ”

"Say it yourself? How so? ”

Guo Hao smiled: "Naturally, I went to Zhaoqing Mansion to talk about it...... If he agrees, then we can be regarded as capturing Jiaozhi County. If he doesn't agree, it will be a fraudulent surrender, and if we fight again, it will not be overstepping our authority. ”

In fact, no matter what they do, they will not be charged with ultra vires! Now the Great Song Dynasty is an era of martial arts culture. Moreover, a new military attache group was formed, which, together with Qingcheng Bachelor, Gezhi Bachelor, and Bachelor of Arts and Sciences, constituted the backbone of the Xinxue New Party.

They are not as easy to deal with as the reckless warriors who have no group and are not as knowledgeable as the civilian officials.

And they can also go to Zhou Guo...... There is no place to stay here, there is a place to stay!

In this case, the two principles of the Song Dynasty of "using literature to control the military" and "will be from the middle" have also been greatly loosened.

Zhang Xiaochun, who served as Xuanfu this time, is different from the previous civilian Xuanfu, he is a military Xuanfu, has no local position, and is only in charge of the military.

In addition, the palace did not send any attendants to supervise the army.

Therefore, the officers at the front have a great deal of autonomy, such as Li Qiande's request for peace. In the past, it was necessary for one party to make a decision together with the internal guards and supervisors representing the palace. And now, as soon as the three battalion officers are combined, while giving Li Qiande conditions, they are sending people to report to Yang Kebi, who is directing the ambush battle in the west of the town, and they are still preparing to attack.

"Just go," Li Gande also knew that he couldn't hide, so he had to grit his teeth and say, "Zhaoqing Mansion is not a Longtan Tiger's Den, it is a Longtan Tiger's Den, and I am not afraid!" ”

There is no fear of fear...... The Song Dynasty was relatively gentle both internally and externally, and the monarchs of the enemy countries that were caught would be raised by a prince of what kind of marquis, at most they would be fed with some medicine, and it would not be enough to kill them openly.

Moreover, the situation of Cochin is different from that of the Southern Tang Dynasty, which has been independent of China for more than 170 years, and has gone through the four dynasties of Wu, Ding, Li and Li.

The influence of the Central Plains on Cochin is almost non-existent. If the Song Dynasty wanted to appease the powerful and powerful people in Jiaozhi, it had to treat the Li Dynasty monarch favorably and set a good example.

Most of them can still maintain the position of king of the Li Dynasty, or Li Qiande will continue to be the king of Jiaozhi County, or Li Chongde will be the king. Use the signboard of the king of the Li Dynasty to appease the Jiaozhi people.

Although the power cannot be compared with the past when he became an independent king, he can still endure humiliation and bear the burden to maintain. Maybe there will be another chance to be independent in the future!

Nanbatian Li Qiande pondered for a long time, and finally decided to go to Zhaoqing Mansion for a while.

In fact, Zhaoqing Mansion must go, the question is only how to go, whether to go in whole or in part, whether to go decently by yourself, or to send it to Zhaoqing Mansion with a rope.

Let's do the math, or go by yourself......

……

"Your Royal Highness, this official has told you something, don't worry."

Zhang Xiaochun is as his name suggests, with a loyal and filial piety on his face, and he is also very polite to Nan Tianba, who is in trouble.

It's just that after Nan Tianba proposed to "cede land and ask for peace", he said with a wry smile: "The 20 warships and tens of thousands of elite soldiers of the Great Zhou Republic landed on the Taiping River south of Anbangkou in half a month, and now they are building cities and ports for long-term preparation. ”

"Da Zhou? Aren't they in Yandi? Li Qiande was a little confused.

His old man has never regarded Zhou Guo as an enemy! The allusion of long-distance and close attack, his old man couldn't be clearer.

Zhou Guo is far away, and he is the object of distant friendship. Why did Zhou Guo also rob with fire in the blink of an eye?

Didn't the head of Zhou Guowang Wu read "Warring States Policy"?

Zhang Xiaochun sighed and said, "Although the Zhou State occupies the land of Yanliao and is seven or eight thousand miles away from Jiaozhi, it is not difficult to come and go by sea. The Zhou State arose in the Tianjin commercial market, which was based on commercial sea trade. There is also a great deal of power in the Nanyang Prefecture south of Cochin...... It is not an exaggeration to say that the Nanyang Protectorate is shared by our dynasty and the Zhou State.

However, the distance from Nanyang to Tianjin was long, and there was no transit port in the middle that could be controlled by the Zhou State. Therefore, it is not surprising that Zhou Guo covets Jiaozhi. ”

Zhang Xiaochun has also dealt with Su Shi and Ji Yi these days. Naturally, he figured out what Wu Haogu was planning for Jiaozhi.

The Nanyang Metropolitan Protectorate is a good place to get fat, and Wu Haogu is certainly not willing to give up - in fact, he has not given up. Hua Manshan has been stationed in Xingzhou for the past few years to manage the situation for Da Zhou.

But because there is no reliable transit port between Zhou and Nanyang, oh, Taiwan is not a reliable transit port. Because Wu Haogu's operation in Taiwan was very weak in the past, he only had a little situation in Lukang and Penghu. However, these two strongholds themselves still need to be supplied by Fujian, so it is impossible to supply the huge southbound fleet.

It is precisely because of this that Wu Haogu handed over the island of Taiwan to Su Shi for control at the beginning of the seizure of Yandi - this is also to develop Taiwan with the help of the Su family.

But Cochin is different! Cochin is a famous grain-producing area!

The colony established by Wu Haogu in Jiaozhi can fully provide supplies and footholds for fleets and expeditionary forces.

Moreover, at this time, the Vietnamese nation had not yet been formed, and the Yue and Han people were mixed together, and they could all be said to be the people of China.

The Great Zhou Republic could have established a "samurai group" in the Taiping River valley along the coast of Jiaozhi, and then relied on the Jiaozhi samurai, who were accustomed to the tropical climate, to carry out colonial aggression in the Nanyang region.

"Xuan Shuai, if the Zhou State is allowed to occupy Jiaozhi, the Liangguang of the Great Song Dynasty will be in danger!" Li Qiande's eyes rolled, and he was about to fool Zhang Xiaochun with his cold lips and teeth, but Zhang Xiaochun nodded and said something that almost made Li Qiande angry.

"What the king of the county said is very true! If there is no Zhou State plotting to make a toe, how can my Great Song Dynasty have any thoughts about it? But now that Zhou Guo has attacked Jiaozhi, then my Da Song can't stand by and watch. Instead of letting the Zhou State annex Jiaozhi, it is better to let the Great Song Dynasty recover Jiaozhi. What does the king think? ”

What is this called? Instead of you colonizing, why don't I colonize?
