Stubbornly unable to keep up with Yang Chong's rhythm, he said in his heart that if you just want to say hard words, you should also find an appropriate time, so that the way to talk will be blocked as soon as you come up, and how can you continue in the future; I had no choice but to calm down, and Shi Li asked: "I still hope that Yue Guogong will give you some guidance." ”

Only then did everyone realize that the Turkic envoy in front of them was not an ordinary person, and Yang Chongrang sat down and said: "We are a friendly country, considering the current situation and the difficulties of the Turks in Saibei, we can use money to redeem Fengzhou." ”

Stubbornly losing his thinking is a Zhongyuan Tong, and he fights with Yang Shanjing, Zhao Deyan and others all day long, and naturally knows the precedent of the Central Plains, and the money given by the Han Dynasty to Xian, the Southern Xiongnu, and the Western Regions every year is equivalent to 20% of the annual financial revenue of the Han regime. Obsessed with losing his thinking and power, it is the best policy to obtain wealth without war, and today this Yue Guogong may be confused, and in the long run, the Turks will only get stronger and stronger, and a Fengzhou is nothing.

Simo also widened his eyes, Yang Chong is also a legendary figure in the Turks, bringing shame to the Turks again and again, the death of Shibi Khan and Chuluo Khan has the shadow of Yang Chong, even in the eyes of his father Jieli Khan, Yang Chong is also a big hero, a few characters who can compete with his father, but there is also a special among them.

Yang Chongchao nodded and said, "General Zhizhi, I think you understand what I mean, I gave this money a name called the Year Coin, which is converted into copper coins and silk silk. You see that Fengzhou has three counties, Wuyuan, Yuzhong, and Yulin, plus the southernmost city of Woye, how much do you say it is worth? ”

I have never settled accounts like this, and I was speechless for a while, and Simo got up and said, "Two million yuan, two percent interest per year." ”

Yang Chonghan said with a smile: "That is to pay off in ten years, 600,000 yuan in the first year, 560,000 yuan in the second year, and 520,000 yuan in the third year, how about it?" ”

Yang Chong didn't pay back the price of a penny, which made the stubbornness and Simo beat the drum in his heart; There must be a conspiracy in it, but it is impossible to see where the conspiracy is. The two didn't reply for a long time, Yang Chong waved his hand and said, "You better go back and report to Jieli Khan, and then determine the price, and then I will arrange for someone from the Ministry of Rites to negotiate with you." Pei Shouzhen informed the military department to prepare 1,000 sets of armor, 10 carts of fine wine, 2 carts of soy sauce, 2 carts of tea, and 2 carts of milk powder and biscuits as a gift to Jieli Khan. ”

Pei Shouzhen, the chief bookkeeper, agreed to draft the official document, and Yang Chong went to handle it after stamping it; Yang Chong also personally presented Jieli Khan with a new four-wheeled carriage, a red coral tree to Zhiwei Sili, and a long sword decorated with precious stones. I didn't react until I left the Yue Guo Mansion, and I didn't negotiate it today, and the responsibility was all on myself, so I should have agreed to come down and take 600,000 yuan first.

Simo's mentality was very good, playing with the sword, and said with great interest: "Last time I went to Dingxiang City, I met the convoy of Chang'an, and gave two carts of treasures and ten carts of tribute supplies to the Empress Dowager Xiao, and none of them were worthy of this sword." In my opinion, Yang Chong is sincere in giving New Year's coins and doesn't want to start a war with us. ”

Zhi Sili sighed and said: "With these 600,000 years of coins, many people have a reason not to want to go south, anyway, ten years is long." Yang Chonghui swept through the Central Plains in the past ten years, unifying the rivers and mountains, once Yang Chong freed his hand, my Turks will definitely not be able to resist. ”

Simo thought for a while, turned around and asked, "Have we Turks won the Hexi Army until now?" ”

Stubbornly dumbfounded, no wonder Jieli Khan sent himself to negotiate, because Jieli Khan saw very clearly, except for Jieli Khan's own Wuyuan Tooth Banner and the two Tooth Banners in the northeast, there was no chance of fighting, and the other Turkic armies had no victory in the face of the Hexi Army so far; If the Turks sent 200,000 troops and ended up with countless casualties, it would be better for Jieli Khan not to fight this battle.

Yang Chong is an extremely smart person, and it is obvious that when he sees this, he will take the initiative to propose the New Year's coin, because Yang Chong knows that this is the final result. It is no wonder that these two men were able to stand out in a few years and gain domination of the Turks and the Central Plains; Stubbornly looking up at the sky, the buildings of Chang'an are tall, giving people a sense of depression, and the birds in the sky have a halo in the sun, like a golden and red halo.

Perhaps, peace is not a bad thing.

Yang Shanjing left, the Turkic mission left, and Yang Chong's attention returned to Luoyang.

Wang Shichong of Luoyang is now in addition to Hu Shang, no one else is allowed to leave, Lingbao Qian Zhuang and more than 200 Hu merchants who go back and forth to Luoyang have made a lot of money, although the price is a little higher, but the craftsmen still come out more than 1,000 people, all of them were sent to various workshops in Chang'an. Li Jing and Xu Shiji both took the initiative to retreat the defense line, trying to lure Wang Shichong to attack, but Wang Shichong was not moved at all and held on to it.

Yang Chong felt that Yang Gongqing took over Tongguan and Yang Yanshi's Hubu battalion was not enough to transfer to the tiger prison, so he selected 3,000 elite cavalry from Yao Junsu's troops to go to Nanyang to supplement Li Jing's cavalry. The Ministry of War sent a letter to Xu Shiji and Wang Yaohan, asking them to transfer all the families of the army to Hongnong County and formulate a plan to hold the Xingyang area; After Dou Jiande regrouped, he was mobilizing a large army to prepare to go south again, and joined forces with Wang Shichong to drive the Hexi Army out of Henan, after all, the front line had reduced 50,000 Hexi Army, no matter how you look at it, it is an opportunity.

In less than a month, the accurate news finally came, Dou Jiande left Gao Shixing to garrison Leshou, Fan Yuan to garrison Caozhou, Cao Zhan to garrison Liyang, Gao Yaxian to garrison Xingzhou, with Dong Kangmai and Liu Ya as generals, Qi Shanxing and Liu Bin as strategists to lead the army of 100,000, advance by land and water, go up the Yellow River, and save Luoyang in the west.

Wang Shichong's generals Han Hong and Li Yuan's generals Xiahou opened the city to greet them, Meng Haigong and Xu Yuanlang were defeated and surrendered, Xu Shiji and Wang Yaohan couldn't resist it, gave up Chen Liu, Yang Zhai, and retreated to Xingyang. Dou Jiande's troops were in the east of Chenggao, and the palace was built in Banzhu, northeast of Xingyang, and sent envoys to inform Wang Shichong; Wang Shichong proclaimed himself emperor again, and sent his younger brother Wang Shibi and general Guo Shiheng to lead 20,000 troops to occupy Gongxian and Luokoucang in succession, and attack the Tiger Pass in the east.

At present, the Tiger Prison is guarded by Yang Yanshi's Hubu Battalion, which has been quietly transferred, as Yang Chong's descendant, equipped with a thunderbolt battalion of 500 people, and Xu Shiji also left Shen Yue and two thousand Wagang veterans. Yang Yanshi directly shot the officers of the Zheng army who came to persuade him to surrender, and with an order, the whole army went to the city and began to defend.

Guo Shiheng commanded Zheng Jun to erect more than 100 ladders and marched forward with a loud shout; The ladder is covered with wooden planks wrapped in cowhide on three sides, which can resist bows and arrows. Thirty soldiers climbed on each ladder and climbed along a short ladder rope. Yang Yanshi ordered the near rocket to fire, and the distant ladder was attacked with a trebuchet, the ladder was either burning or interrupted by large stones, and the soldiers on the soft rope of the short ladder were injured by lime boiling oil, and could not attack the city tower at all.
