The news of the defeat of the Wuheng army in western Liaoxi soon spread back to Qiu Liju in Wangting, Qiu Liju took this letter in his hand, and fell to the ground in an atmospheric manner, more than 10,000 troops, went to Liaoxi, and they were annihilated without even stepping on the edge of the border, and one person would come, and all the henchmen and generals were captured. When looking at the letter, Qiu Liju scolded the two idiots, they didn't even send horses to fight on the march, and they were calculated to death, and they couldn't kill two fools with a knife now.

"King, let me go to Liaoxi and bring the head of the Taishou people." One of the tent members picked up the letter, read it, and said loudly.

"The king sent me, and I will definitely rescue the bragan brothers."

The royal court is in a big tent, and the generals are talking one after another.

"Shut up, look at your proud appearance, do you think that the Han people are waiting for you now, without a little defense? After a few years of fighting grass valleys, they won a little victory, and they were all proud that they didn't even send horses, thinking that the Han people were all thin, waiting for you to slaughter, don't you know how to resist? Qiu Liju was furious. A group of self-righteous guys, who won several small victories, were all complacent, did not take the Han people seriously, and cocked their tails to the sky.

Qiu Liju looked around angrily, and all the soldiers in the tent lowered their heads unconsciously, unwilling to look directly.

Qiu Liju deserved to be an eloquent person, and quickly calmed down, sat down and said, "It seems that this time I can only send someone to negotiate peace." ”

Hearing Qiu Liju say peace, one person stood up and said: "King, don't!" Since the leadership of the king, we Wuheng have never negotiated peace with the Han people, and now we go to negotiate peace, and it is rumored that we are afraid of losing the wisdom of the king. ”

Qiu Liju quickly pressed his hand and said, "If you don't negotiate peace, what should I do?" We Wuheng people now have thousands of people in Li Zhen's hands, and we are now sending troops, and we are not afraid that Li Zhen will kill them all in a fit of anger. ”

The general in the tent was speechless when he heard this.

Captives in the grassland can be exchanged for money, horses, cattle and sheep, if it is passed on, unwilling to exchange money for people, the following tribes will also be dissatisfied, and in the future, Qiu Liju issued an order, there will not be a few tribes to obey it, and the prestige of the king will be affected. Compared to tribal harmony, peace was a wise decision.

Qiu Liju said to a few people who were fighting one after another: "Now we want to fight, but we can't, right now, it is about to enter the winter, and the cattle, sheep, and horses all have to be kept in the shed to prepare for the winter, so we have the energy to prepare for the war." ”

"The king is wise." No one will turn it over again.

Qiu Liju stood up and said: "Li Zhen, I am inseparable from you, next autumn, I will personally go to Liaoxi to take your head." ”

No one talked about revenge again, so he directly sent an envoy to Liaoxi to negotiate peace and ransom the two henchmen and soldiers. Qiu Liju clenched his fists at this time, this time it was his biggest shame.

Yangle County, Li Zhen has been busy every day for a few days since he came back, not trying to find a way to fill in the officials of a county, now is the time when he is most short of civil officials, and now he sends all the generals to a county and stays there to make a county order, which really feels overkill.

"Report, lord, Wuheng's envoy has arrived outside Yangle City, should we send someone to answer it." Dian Wei came in to report.

"Envoy Wuheng, when did you arrive? How am I not clear? Li Zhen was puzzled, he hadn't heard any news about such a big thing.

Dian Wei rolled his eyes and muttered, "Last time, Commander Guan didn't write to talk about this, why don't you remember?" ”

Li Zhen patted his forehead and said, "It's not that I've been busy forgetting about this recently." ＇

Now that the messenger of Wuheng has arrived outside the city, shall we send someone to answer it? Dian Wei repeated.

"Yes, I don't think it's necessary! I think the people of Wuheng should be able to get there themselves. Li Zhen said. Lord, I think it is better to send someone to respond, the two countries are not at war and do not come to make it, this time Wu Heng came to negotiate peace, we should follow the etiquette of the Han Dynasty, and not make people laugh. Dian Wei said what he thought.

Li Zhen thought about it, when he came to Dahan, he should do it according to the etiquette of Dahan now, although he is not interested in Wuheng in his heart, but about his reputation, he should send someone to make a show! Then he said, "You send a guard to pick it up!" "No." Having a guard is better than no one, Dian Wei thought, so he went to find a guard to go outside the city to meet Wuheng's envoy.

When the envoy of Wuheng was received into the hall, he saw Li Zhengao, the head of the hall, sitting on it, while Dian Wei and Zhou Cang were standing behind Li Zhen.

The envoy of Wuheng immediately spoke: "Lord Li's good official authority, he actually sent only a small guard to greet the envoy, you are not afraid of making the world laugh." “

Li Zhen seems to be an envoy, with a rough beard on his face, and he has the demeanor of a military general in his speech and movements, and he can't understand that Qiu Liju sent someone to negotiate peace, and he actually sent a military general, aren't you afraid that things will be messed up by him? Or is this man superior.

Dian Wei listened to the words of the envoy of Wuheng, and directly and unceremoniously released his murderous aura, all of which shrouded the envoy of Wuheng. The envoy of Wuheng faced Dian Wei without changing his face, straightened his waist, and looked at Dian Wei, but after a long time, the face of the envoy of Wuheng turned pale, and the sweat of the bean was running down his cheeks.

Li Zhen saw that the envoy of Wuheng had begun to be unbearable, and showed a hint of a smile, at first the envoy of Wuheng wanted to take the lead, but he didn't expect that he would eat first, so that it would always be good for his next negotiations. "Ahem." Li Zhen pretended to cough, Dian Wei understood what he meant, and put away the murderous aura on his body.

"Sitting, messenger." Li Zhen very politely invited this person to sit down.

The envoy of Wuheng immediately supported the table with his hands, sat down weakly with his feet, and then carefully wiped off the sweat.

"Your great king, Qiu Liju, sent you to have a matter of scholars." Li Zhen pretended to be confused and asked.

The envoy of Wuheng still replied unruly: "Lord Qiyu, this time our king hopes to negotiate peace with your Han and take back our Wuheng captured soldiers by the way. ”

Li Zhen smiled and said: "Negotiate peace, why don't I see the sincerity of your king." ”

"Sincerity? Hmph, we don't send a large army to Liaoxi again, it is the greatest sincerity, if the adults do not accept the peace, then my Wuheng Heng army will press into the border of Liaoxi at any time, and then the adults want to negotiate peace, I'm afraid it will be difficult. The envoy of Wuheng threatened. When leaving, although Qiu Liju asked people to prepare money for the prisoners, the envoy of Wuheng was still reluctant and said something that was not intimidating.

Li Zhen sneered: "The army is pressing in." Hmph, it's going to be a harsh winter soon, and now all the cattle, sheep and horses in the grassland should be kept in captivity! Not to mention how many troops you will send when you arrive? It is this heavy snow that closes the road, and your army does not know how many beasts and people will freeze to death, will your king still send people over? ”

"That's also until the beginning of spring next year, when we will be in the army." The envoy of Wuheng argued vigorously.

"By that time, I'm afraid that your people will have starved to death and frozen to death in Liaoxi, and I am very busy now, and I don't have time to discuss these things with you, so you can wait for those people to die, and let your king give a good account to his tribe." Li Zhen said, there is no benefit, I want to get prisoners of war with a threatening word, this Wuheng envoy really thinks I am a vegetarian.

"It's ・・・・・." After talking for a long time, it turned out that others had a thorough understanding of Wuheng's situation, and it seemed that they still had to use things to complete the task. The envoy of Wuheng said, "My lord, can you let me meet my people, I am more relieved." ”

"Okay, I'll take you to see your people." Li Zhen laughed and said, this is the truth since ancient times, after seeing people, it is not too late to negotiate, it is not in line with your own wishes, you will not agree, anyway, everyone is in your own hands.
