As the sun set, more than 100,000 troops marched northeast along the earthen city billet that was being built like a black torrent. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

After the day's negotiations were quickly concluded yesterday, the 100,000 Wei troops began to cook before dawn this morning, and when they could see the road clearly, the army had already been marched, and after the front army walked out a few miles away, the miscellaneous army composed of the people behind had just packed up the camp. By the time the sun set to the west, the 100,000 troops, together with the allied forces of the four nations, had already appeared sixty miles north of Huayang.

The Wei army was going to rush to Zhongyang for the night, yes, yesterday the Marquis of Wei received the news of the Qi army's advance, so he forced Han Hou and the royal family to sign a compensation treaty with an iron fist, and discussed with the generals of the Wei army that night, and decided that the army would go east in the early morning of the next day to resist the Qi army.

And this news was also sent to the royal family last night, and Wei Hou was informed of the meaning early, that is, no matter how Zhou Tianzi couldn't get up this morning, he had to set off with the army when the time came.

So Zhou Bian also had to force himself to get up early, saying that these days he slept until he woke up naturally, and some of them began to lie in bed, it was really easy to go from thrift to luxury, and it was difficult to go from luxury to thrift.

So after lunch, on the rickety carriage, Zhou Bian fell asleep under the service of the maid. This sleep only slept until the sun went down.

When he woke up and saw the slanting sun, Zhou Bian couldn't tell whether it was the rising sun or the setting sun. After a while, my vision became clearer, and when I looked to the west, it turned out to be a continuous series of low earth cities.

To be precise, it is an unfinished earthen city billet, and its appearance is actually the Great Wall that is famous for later generations, undulating with the terrain, occupying between the hills, sandwiching the dangers, appearing and disappearing, and almost parallel to the path that folds to the northeast.

Seeing this strange and familiar "Great Wall", Zhou Bian was confused for a while, isn't this the Central Plains, how can there be a Great Wall, this time is also hundreds of years earlier than Qin Shi Huang.

If there were doubts, the natural elders solved the doubts, and after a while, Ning Yue climbed into the car and sat opposite Zhou Bian.

After some explanation, Zhou Bian learned that this was the Great Wall built by South Korea over the years, and it began to be built since the Han Hou moved the capital to Xinzheng, and it has been repaired for more than eight years.

However, the Great Wall is facing the east, to be precise, it is to guard against Wei, from this point of view, Zhou Bian can't help but praise Han Yuanhou, the general trend of the world is very clear, after all, South Korea has a thin foundation, and in the face of strong Wei, it is better to maintain a defensive posture.

And I heard that the Great Wall has been built for more than 100 miles, along the river to the east, and then turn to the southwest, bent into an angle, seems to point directly to the Wei Liang, did South Korea have long seen that the Wei State is going to move the capital to the Liang? But the south side of the Great Wall is still dozens of miles away from the Han capital Xinzheng, and I don't know when it will be repaired and completely envelop the national capital, otherwise the dignified national capital will not be so easily exposed to the iron armor of the Wei State.

After saying this, Zhou Bian stared at Ning Yue's neck, it turned out that Ning Yue's neck was wrapped in a circle of white yarn, and there was still a faint trace of blood on the white yarn.

"Ning Qing, in the strategy we discussed earlier, there was no such thing as you committing suicide to blackmail Han Hou, why did Ning Qing work so hard? That will be very startling to this king, and I am still afraid when I think about it. ”

Indeed, yesterday Ning Yue suddenly turned the saber across his neck, at that moment, Han Hou couldn't help but be stunned, it was Wei Hou and Zhou Bian, everyone was stunned, not to mention that this Ning Yue was really ruthless, the saber hit the neck as soon as it was horizontal, and it saw that it had already scratched blood, fortunately, Zhou Bian, who had reacted, shouted, making Ning Yue's hand pause, and then Wang Sun Man quickly rushed up and grabbed the sword with Ning Yue.

In fact, Ning Yue really committed suicide, but he just waited for Zhou Bian to stop drinking, because whether it was Han Hou's people or Wei Hou's people, they would not make a sound to stop it, they could only be the king of the Zhou family. However, if Zhou Bian was a beat slower, maybe this saber would have cut deeper, so hearing Zhou Bian's shout that was slightly dull for a moment, Ning Yue was also secretly relieved in his heart.

However, the next scene still had to be done enough, so Ning Yue and Wang Sunman pulled together, and even the sword blade cut Wang Sunman's palm. Or Zhou Bian cried with a handful of snot and tears, crying and shouting, this king can't do without Dr. Ning, if Dr. Ning is dead, how can my royal family survive, etc., crying like a young man who died in the country, only crying made Wei Hou irritable and Han Hou tempted.

In the end, it was Wei Hou who shouted loudly and stopped the tragedy, and Ning Yue asked Wei Hou to come forward, and Wei Hou naturally agreed, so Wei Hou, who had not opened his mouth much at first, began to speak.

After a fierce debate, it was finally decided that South Korea would compensate the royal family for Siyi, the Gui family, Jiuli, Xingqiu and Lingguan, and another 10,000 yuan. This money is naturally based on the square hole round money of the Zhou room, 10,000 yuan is 5 million catties of copper, can Han Hou take out so much copper?

The answer is naturally not available, if all the weapons in Korea are melted, or all the nobles in Xinzheng are looted, maybe there will be. This is also the disadvantage of using heavy metals as currency.

Here, the two sides were at a stalemate, so Wei Hou proposed a plan, which is also used by other countries, that is, to take cloth and grain to mortgage money, and at the same time pay a small amount in gold, so that Han Hou can accept it, so it is another negotiation, after all, how much a piece of cloth is worth is not very easy to define. In the end, it was decided to pay 5,000 yuan for millet and rice, 6 yuan for linen and 20 yuan for cloth.

However, in Han Hou's opinion, the total amount was still huge, and it was difficult to pay it off for a while. So Zhou Bian put forward a creative idea, that is, installment payment.

In this era, there is no such thing as staging, not because it is not technically difficult, but because no one has thought of it. Sure enough, after this idea was proposed, Han Hou immediately agreed, and Wei Hou's eyes lit up, looking thoughtful.

The next thing is easy to do, in front of the strong Wei Hou, Han Hou did not dare to shirk any more, and the three parties quickly set the rules. The four yi were handed over clearly within a month, and the currency or goods of 10,000 yuan were delivered in six batches within three years, and two batches were delivered this year, the first batch was copper coins and cloth, which was sent to Luoyang within a month, and the second batch was grain and grass, which was delivered after the autumn harvest.

In addition to the three monarchs present, they were all capable ministers, and finally rushed to the west before the sun, wrote the regulations on the three sheets of cloth with a lacquer pen, and at the same time agreed that Korea would recognize the status of the royal family in Luoyang in the future, and said that the royal family and Korea both supported the Marquis of Wei as the prince of the world. These three copies were signed and signed by the three monarchs and all the ministers present, and they were not afraid of Han Hou's denial in the future.

After signing, the three parties put it away, and Ning Yue began to congratulate Han Hou, in Ning Yue's words, that is South Korea on the right path of respecting the king, finally took an important step, not only washed away the past sins, but also became an example for the princes of the world.

Under Zhou Bian's signal, Ning Yue said on the spot that he would write to Luoyang on the second day, and let Luoyang send an envoy to inform the world, explaining to all the princes in the world that since the Korean attack on Luoyang, how the Marquis of Wei helped the royal family, attacked Xinzheng with the righteousness of the world, and sought justice for the royal family, as well as how Han Houwu changed his mind when he knew it, actively communicated with the royal family, and was willing to compensate for the loss, and then signed the covenant under the witness of the Marquis of Wei, and the royal family specially named the Marquis of Wei as the chief in order to thank the Marquis of Wei for his righteousness.

Thinking about it made Wei Hou's heart excited, didn't he do so much for this step? Qi Huan Jinwen's hegemony is already in front of him. And it was proposed by the royal family, who else in the world dares to say it?

Not only that, but the fed royal family is really on the top, at the dinner held at the negotiation place after dark, when Ning Yue expressed his gratitude to Wei Hou on behalf of the royal family, he directly proposed to pay Han Hou 10,000 yuan to pay 10 million yuan to reward the Wei army and the allies of the four countries, after all, the five countries moved a war.

However, the Marquis of Wei was on the rise, and he was satisfied that he only thought that he was the reincarnation of Qi Huan, and how could he really ask for the royal family's reward, and the Wei army had sacked two cities and three small towns in Korea, and the harvest was not small. So the Marquis of Wei said on the spot that the five million money of the Wei State was gone, and the five million money should be given to the four countries, and the commanders of the four countries who were only happy to come to congratulate him later, one by one, came up to toast the Marquis of Wei and the royal family.

It's just that others don't know, Wei Hou is also a good calculation, and someone has come out of the reward of the Four Nations Alliance, as the initiator, he Wei Hou has a reason not to come out again, not only to save money, but also to feed the allies. Overjoyed, Wei Hou poured himself a cup, but under the dark bonfire, no one noticed that Wei Hou drank this cup by himself.

This bonfire night banquet lasted until midnight, and I don't know how much wine I drank, but on the way back to Huayang, Wei Hou sent someone to send a message, and the next morning when the sky was just dawning, he left Huayang and rushed to Daliang. Although the person who came did not say it explicitly, he thought that it must have been Wei Hou who received the news of the Qi army today, otherwise he would not have forced Han Hou to sign the alliance today and leave in a hurry the next day.

Sure enough, the news was confirmed the next morning after the army had started, and on this point, General Banin did not hide from the royal family.

It's just that I don't know if Han Hou will vomit blood depressedly after learning the news, because if he also learns the news of the dispatch of the Qi army, it means that the negotiations will be delayed for a while, so that the anxious Wei Hou will be more relaxed, and South Korea will be able to let go less blood.

Thinking of this, Zhou Bian also secretly hearted, the lesson of Korean blood is in front of him, no matter what era, the importance of intelligence cannot be ignored! It seems that after receiving South Korea's compensation, not only will Luoyang's recovery work be accelerated, but also a sum of money will have to be allocated to Jiang Ping and Liu Million, so that they can stretch out their hands longer and farther.

Seeing the Great Wall of Korea in the west disappearing from time to time, the sunset gradually setting behind a forest, in the luxurious four-wheeled carriage, Zhou Bian and Ning Yue talked without a pair, and it didn't take long for them to stop shouting.

It turned out that after a day of rapid marching, the army finally rushed to Zhongyang before dark.

Zhongyang is an important small town in the east of Wei State, a few miles to the west is the Great Wall of Korea, sixty or seventy miles to the east is another small Yi Zhongmu, Zhongmu is sixty miles to the east, is the Great Liang City under construction, the famous Kaifeng Mansion in later generations.

This shows the importance of Zhongyang's geographical location, obviously this is the first line of defense in the west of Daliang City, which was built by the Wei State, and if it is to send troops to South Korea, then Zhongyang is the vanguard camp, otherwise South Korea would not have worked hard to build the Great Wall west of Zhongyang more than ten years ago.

After Wei Wuhou sent Wu to attack Fengze, Wei began to shift the center of the country to the east, and began to build Daliang City at the same time, it also focused on building a number of small yi, Zhongyang and Zhongmu are two of them, in addition to Kaifeng in the south of Daliang, Yuguan in the southwest, Xiaohuang in the east, Yongqiu in the southeast and so on. Most of these small towns are rebuilt on the original basis, but the national strength of the Wei State has been very strong since the Wenhou and Wuhou, so these cities with only more than 10,000 people are also very tall, and the intention of the Wei State to use these small towns to defend the Daliang City is self-evident.

It was when the sky was about to get dark and not dark, the people of the royal family entered Zhongyang City with the Chinese army of the Marquis of Wei, and the 100,000 troops naturally camped outside the city to rest, and the allied forces of the four countries also followed, most of them at the invitation of the Marquis of Wei, and the Wei army went north to resist Qi.

Taking advantage of the fact that the sky had not completely darkened, Zhou Bian asked people to lift the curtain on one side of the carriage and look out, only to see that the city wall of Zhongyang Xiaoyi was more than two zhang high, and a shadow creeping on the plain, like a fierce tiger hidden in the dark.

"It turns out that Marquis Wei has long had the intention of moving the capital to Daliang."

Lowering the curtain of the car window, Zhou Bian turned his head to Ning Yue and said.

The latter nodded and replied, "That's it, the land of the Great Liang, the ancient name Fengze, the original name of the Great Liang Yiyi, the east of Qilu, the south of the Jianghuai, the west of Songyue, the north according to Yan Zhao, is the Central Plains important land, just a piece of Ze land, there is no danger to defend, and the two marquis of Wei Wenwu, are the kings of great talents, not camping the Liang, so they began to build a circle of small towns such as Zhongyang, thinking that the Liang barrier, woohoo, it is really admirable!" ”

When the two gentlemen and ministers said this, the carriage entered Zhongyang City, and the city was quiet, obviously a curfew had already been curfew. After settling down in a mansion in the city, Ning Yue took his leave, and Zhou Bian was also served by the maid, and soon fell into a deep sleep. On this day, I got up early, although I didn't walk on two feet, but I was very tired from riding in the car.

Perhaps it was caused by the daytime rush, and this sleep was very sweet, and by the time he was woken up by Qiaonu, the sky was already blue.

He opened his eyes in a daze, and after a while, Zhou Bian remembered that General Baning had said yesterday, and today was another rapid march. Come on, Wei Hou is a little anxious, he really can't afford to provoke him, Zhou Bian had no choice but to get up from the bed and hurriedly solve the breakfast.

As the day before, as soon as the sky was bright, the Wei army set out and pointed due east.
