Chapter 495: Final Negotiations
The battle of Fengyang was in full swing, and Sun Chuanting's reinforcements, which Jing Jie had been guarding against, did not see a trace, but got Sun Chuanting's reply in Fang Yuan, Suzhou Mansion.
Sun Chuanting agreed to the negotiations with Fang Yuan, and the place of the negotiations was set in Huai'an Mansion, where the buffer zone of the two armies was located, and Shanyang County, where Zhu Yihai's palace was located, and the two sides could each bring 5,000 soldiers and horses into Huai'an Mansion.
Fang Yuan ordered Hu Qi to take three thousand people dressed in explosion-proof equipment, armed to the teeth, and the special combat army directly under the Regent's Mansion drove to Huai'an Mansion to negotiate peace with Sun Chuanting.
On Sun Chuanting's side, Bai Guangen led 5,000 new-style Ming troops, as well as 1,000 train battalions invented by Sun Chuanting, also arrived in Shanyang County, Huai'an Prefecture.
The so-called train battalion, similar to a horse-drawn carriage cannon, is also the most primitive and rudimentary prototype of a chariot. A horse-drawn carriage with a small three-inch cannon built into the carriage can also store food, clothing, etc. In wartime, you can use trains to defend in formation, or you can shoot with fire and muskets to resist the impact of cavalry, just like a simple defensive fortress, which is the tactics that Sun Chuanting came up with to deal with Li Zicheng's cavalry.
In order to prevent the two sides from misfire, Zhu Yihai sent 20,000 Lu troops from Huai'an Prefecture to maintain law and order at the scene of the peace talks.
Fang Yuan, Sun Chuanting, and Zhu Yihai sat down at the table, Zhu Yihai raised his glass and said, "Inspector Sun is the governor of the Ming Dynasty, and the regent is the regent of the Ming Dynasty, both sides are loyal ministers of the Ming Dynasty, why bother to fight and kill, it is better to sit down and talk about it, and stop the soldiers!" Come, this king will first toast the two of you with a glass of wine! ”
Fang Yuan got up and drank a glass of wine, but Sun Chuanting threw the wine glass heavily on the ground and scolded sharply, "What regent? There is only a governor of Zhejiang, and there is no self-proclaimed regent! ”
Sun Chuanting made it clear that he did not recognize the identity of Fang Yuan's regent, and only recognized the position of governor of Zhejiang Province as sealed by the imperial court in the capital.
Fang Yuan didn't care about his collision, and said with a cold smile, "Now the capital is the prince of the prison country, who is in chaos and under house arrest, usurping the throne and plotting rebellion. If Inspector Sun is really a loyal minister of the Ming Dynasty, he should reorganize his troops and horses, join me in the northern expedition to the capital, clear the king's side, and re-establish His Majesty to restore the throne. ”
Sun Chuanting glared at him angrily and shouted, "Fang Yuan! Your Majesty and your edict, you should have received it. If you are truly loyal to Your Majesty, you should agree to the terms of the edict, and the two sides will immediately make peace. Instead of being under the banner of Qingjun's side right now, he is plotting against the truth! ”
As soon as the two sides opened, they went straight to the topic, full of gunpowder, and Zhu Yihai stayed there and couldn't interject at all. He is just a doer, playing soy sauce, no matter how Fang Yuan and Sun Chuanting make a fuss, it is not up to him to call the shots, so he can only bow his head and drink to hide his embarrassment.
Fang Yuan also slapped the table heavily and scolded, "Sun Chuanting! The princess had already sent a letter to Her Majesty, ordering Her Majesty to come to Jiangnan for inspection, and I personally greeted Your Majesty. If Your Majesty has really been reinstated, you should come to Jiangnan in person to set the record straight and dispel the doubts of the Prince of the Prison State and me. But the princess's family letter is like a mud cow into the sea, and there is no news, I see that the prince of the prison country is pretending! ”
Sun Chuanting did receive a letter from the princess and sent it to the capital. But how dare Empress Zhou let Chongzhen go to Jiangnan, if she was detained by Fang Yuan, then the capital court would really become a chaotic minister and thief.
Sun Chuanting got up angrily, pointed at him and scolded, "Fang Yuan, the so-called monarch wants his ministers to die, and the ministers have to die, you dare to instruct Your Majesty to come to Jiangnan in person." If the governors and vassal kings of all places are like you, the world of the Ming Dynasty will not be chaotic? ”
Fang Yuan also learned from him to get up suddenly, and replied to him, "Sun Chuanting, the so-called monarch humiliated the ministers to death, and His Majesty was placed under house arrest. If the governors and vassal kings of all places are like you, the world is still the world of the Ming Dynasty? It is clearly the world of rebellious ministers and thieves! ”
The two of them said that the public was reasonable, and the mother said that the mother was reasonable, and Sun Chuanting could not have the upper hand over Fang Yuan morally, so he glared at Fang Yuan angrily and hatefully, and said sharply, "Okay, I won't have a verbal dispute with you first." Fengyang Mansion is the central capital of the Ming Dynasty, and if you raise troops to attack Fengyang Mansion, is it considered a rebellion? ! ”
Fang Yuan ordered Hu Qi to take out five charges for Ma Shiying before he set out on the expedition, and read aloud, "Ma Shiying, the governor of Fengyang, is guilty of heinous crimes, and people and gods are angry, and there are five crimes. First, aiding the abuse, fueling the fierce flame of the prince of the prison country, he should be killed! Second, in Fengyang Mansion, the people are not able to make a living, and they should be killed! Third, in Fengyang Mansion, the army is self-respecting, and instead of recruiting the thieves, he attacks the friendly army, causing the relatives to be painful, and the enemies to be fast, so they should be killed! Fourth, a mere governor of Fengyang, who dares to expand the city of Fengyang Mansion in the central capital without authorization, and conspires against him, should be killed! Fifth, since Ma Shiying possessed Fengyang Mansion, he has not repaired the Ming Emperor's Mausoleum destroyed by Zhang Xianzhong, a thief from the West. ”
"I raised an army to fight against this fang, but it is for the heavens to do the right thing and remove a great harm for the Ming Dynasty!"
Fang Yuan asked people to send the accusation against Ma Shiying directly to Sun Chuanting, Sun Chuanting read it roughly, threw it out from afar, and snorted coldly, "There is no excuse for the crime you want to add!" ”
The atmosphere at the scene fell into embarrassment again, and Zhu Yihai had to come out to play a round, "There is no need for a battle of words, let's talk about business, business!" ”
Fang Yuan picked up the wine glass again, stood up and walked up to Sun Chuanting, and said to Sun Chuanting, "Inspector Sun, I want to have a private chat with you, do it first as respect!" ”
Sun Chuanting looked at him straightly, and also got up to accompany him to drink a glass of wine, "Please!" ”
The two of them rode to the river, a mile away, and the accompanying guards were only fifty feet away.
Fang Yuan looked at the sparkling river and said leisurely, "Inspector Sun, you and I have more than 200,000 troops, and we are the mainstay of the Ming Dynasty. If you and I are together, you can go north to the Qingjun side of the capital, destroy the Liukou Anyu in the west, and destroy the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and you can rebuild the peaceful and prosperous era of the Ming Dynasty within two years. If you and I go to war, one of the two tigers will be injured, and the Ming Dynasty will hurt the vitality, and Li Zicheng will be cheapened, and the Manchu Qing will be concerned. ”
Fang Yuan bowed to Sun Chuanting and said, "Supervise Sun and think twice!" ”
Sun Chuanting stared straight at Fang Yuan with a pair of tiger eyes, and said in a deep voice, "Fang Yuan, this is what I want to tell you on this trip. At this moment, there are only two of us, only God knows what I say, you know what I know, Ming people don't say secret words, whether the edict is true or false, whether it is His Majesty's will, you should know in your heart. ”
The edict is written by Chongzhen himself, and the jade seal covered is also agreed before, so there is no doubt that it is Chongzhen's will.
Fang Yuan was silent for a while, nodded and said, "Yes, the edict is Your Majesty's will. ”
Sun Chuanting saw that he readily confessed, and said happily, "Since you admit that it is Your Majesty's will, you know that it is definitely not the queen mother and the prince of the prison country who are deceiving you." As long as you are willing to agree to the previous conditions and return to the imperial court, you and I can join forces to march into the capital, capture the prince alive, and support Your Majesty to be reinstated. When the time comes, as you said, the Ming Dynasty can be prospered! ”
Seeing that Fang Yuan was still hesitant, he continued, "This time I have brought His Majesty's latest will, the Nanzhili, Zhejiang, Fujian, and Guangdong under your jurisdiction are all owned by you in the bloody battlefield, and they are all owned by you, and they are hereditary, as long as you pay the land taxes and commercial taxes in full. The Xuanjia Army also retains its establishment, and it is still at your disposal. The only condition is that you go to the title of regent and change your title to the king of Zhennan; Zhu Cihuan, the king of Wuyue, was named the crown prince of the Ming Dynasty and transferred back to the capital. ”
Sun Chuanting grabbed his hand tightly and patiently persuaded, "Fang Yuan, you go south to conquer the pirate Zheng Zhilong, Franco, and open up the sea channel; The west is not subordinate to the warlord Zuo Liangyu to maintain the unification of the Ming Dynasty; The Northern Expedition to the Manchu Qing Dynasty guarded the peace of the Ming frontier. The early achievement of rebuilding the Ming Dynasty has made great achievements, although Xu Da, the founding father of this dynasty, and Chang Yuchun can not reach it. ”
"If you return to the imperial court, you can be immortal and rank among the first heroes since the founding of the Ming Dynasty! If you hesitate again, it will be too much, and you will become the first chaotic minister and thief since the founding of the Ming Dynasty! ”
Fang Yuan was slightly stunned, the imperial court took another step back this time, and the conditions offered were already very relaxed, in short, as long as Fang Yuan recognized that the world was still the world of the Ming Dynasty, he could be crowned the king with a different surname, Shizhen Jiangnan.
However, the only thing to be canceled in Chongzhen's edict is the title of regent on the surface, but it is actually the virtual monarch reality system that Fang Yuan is now implementing.
Sun Chuanting's words are extremely inflammatory, is he the first hero to recreate the Ming Dynasty, or the first chaotic minister and thief of the Ming Dynasty?
