In the spring of the seventeenth year of the Apocalypse, Qi Changguo agreed to the request of Tsar Mikhail I of the Rakshasa Kingdom for peace talks, and agreed to negotiate in Tianci City after the Praetorian Guards withdrew from Moscow, and the time was set for May 28, which was exactly the same date as the signing of the "Aihui Treaty" in later generations.

Because of the last year Emperor Zhu Youxiao of the Ming Dynasty ordered the Ministry of Rites to recount the merits of the capable ministers who made great contributions to the dynasty, and Qi Jiguang was also posthumously awarded the title of Marquis of Jian'ou because of his meritorious service to the pacification of the Japanese and the repulsion of the Tartars during the Jiajing, Longqing, and Wanli periods.

Although Qi Jiguang, who cherishes the world, said that "it is not my intention to be a marquis, but I hope that the sea will be peaceful", but after all, it is not a bad thing to be a marquis, in order to encourage the current Ming Dynasty's civil and military ministers to continue to establish meritorious deeds and advocate the national strategy of active outward expansion, it is also necessary to make him a marquis.

And Qi Changguo, as his son, is also hereditary for Jian Ou Bo, so although this Qi Changguo is just a general in the Praetorian Guard, he has the title of Jian Ou Bo plus a Zhengyi title of Zuo Du Governor who is also added because of his father's merits, so he is also qualified to preside over this negotiation against the Rakshasa State as a plenipotentiary.

The Rakshasa Kingdom sent the great nobleman Duke Morozov to come to Tianci City to negotiate with the Ming Dynasty on behalf of the Rakshasa Kingdom.

The so-called Tianci City is actually the Tianci City built by the Praetorian Guard army garrisoned here after the development of the Tianci coalfield, the managers of the Royal Industrial Company and the workers recruited from Monan, Mobei, Gansu and other places, although because of the influence of the "Tianci coalfield", the sky here has always been gray, but the newly built Tianci City is the first step of the cultural expansion of the Ming Dynasty, because the Tianci City is all used to build the Central Plains city, The majestic pavilions and towers, the inner and outer city walls, and the moat like a green belt are all signs that Han cultural elements began to be imprinted in Siberia.

At this time, the weather warms up, the snow melts, because of the construction of Tianci City and the mining of Tianci coalfield, the area of vision has become extremely broad, and now when the weather is better and the blue sky is reappeared, it is even more comfortable to feel comfortable.

Qi Changguo also specially put on the imperial python robe today, sat on the official hat chair in a dignified manner, fiddling with a globe made of brass in his hand, and only after hearing the pendulum ring fourteen times, did he ask: "Are the hairy ghosts here?" ”

"It's all here, I'm waiting for you", after the fat pig-like head of Bert Kut squeezed out a few smug smiles, he saw Qi Changguo beckoning to him, and also pointed to the soles of Qi Changguo's shoes, this Boss Coolt understood, and hurriedly ran over and lay on the ground, bowing his back, waiting for Qi Changguo to step on his back, and almost flashed his fat waist, he squeezed out some smiles: "Master's internal strength is strong again!" ”

Qi Changguo didn't say anything, just smiled slightly, but Qi Changguo still felt quite satisfied, he didn't expect that there would be such a long-haired ghost who could talk and be a slave.

Qi Changguo calmly bent down and patted the dust on the moire boots, and then withdrew his feet from this Burkut's back, and this Burkute only shook a few times like a fat pig at this time before standing up trembling again, still with a harmless smile of the six animals, and asked, "Master is going to see these long-haired ghosts now?" ”

"Don't worry, wait for Jiao Lian's guy to arrive", although according to the instructions of Emperor Zhu Youxiao of the Ming Dynasty, whoever arrives in Moscow first will negotiate with Mikhail on behalf of the Ming Dynasty, but Jiao Lian did not find a shortcut to enter Moscow so that Qi Changguo was able to take the first credit in forcing the Tsar of the Rakshasa State Mikhail I to sue for peace, but Jiao Lian is also the second person in the Ming advance army after all, so Qi Changguo also invited him to participate in the negotiations.

Although it was Qi Changguo who took the lead in hitting Moscow and forced the Tsar Mikhail I of the Rakshasa country to pray for peace, Qi Changguo's temper was not as hot as Jiao Lian, and as a general, he also had a bit of military literacy, so he was not as ruthless as Jiao Lian in the Rakshasa country.

When Qi Changguo led the special forces of the Praetorian Guard to the direction of Moscow, the capital of the Rakshasa Kingdom, Jiao Lian launched a continuous attack on countless Rakshasa cities along the way because he could not find the specific direction of Moscow, and also killed a lot of people from the Rakshasa Country, so he left a murderer in the Rakshasa Country, and now there is hardly a person in the Rakshasa Country who is not afraid of Jiao Lian.

Even if it was a negotiation now, when Jiao Lian walked inside, the negotiators of the Rakshasa Kingdom couldn't help but retreat a few steps, and Burkut was even more frightened and his legs trembled.

And Jiao Lian saw him standing beside Qi Changguo and staring at him at this time, so he asked directly: "Look at what, believe it or not, my uncle, I will chop you with a knife!" ”

Hearing this, Burn Kut couldn't help but take a few steps back, and hurriedly knelt down and said, "Don't dare, don't dare." ”

"Why, do you really think that uncle, I don't dare, look at your fat appearance, tell grandpa me, how do you serve your Uncle Qi at night", although Jiao Lian said that he was ostensibly unable to get along with Bokute, but in fact, he was not convinced that Qi Changguo was the first to take the lead, and occupied Moscow City first, which made him very depressed, but the emperor's order came first, and he didn't dare to disobey it, so he had to sprinkle his anger on this foreign slave Bokut.

And this Burkut also knows how to observe words and feelings, and knows that this Ming general named Jiao Lian is dissatisfied with his current loyal master, Qi Changguo, but both are people he can't afford to offend, so he can only endure it and dare not say a word.

Qi Changguo couldn't stand it anymore at this time, and suddenly stood up as soon as he patted the back of the chair and said: "The surname is Jiao, what day is this, you know, if you delay Your Majesty's major affairs, you can't afford it, in addition, Lao Tzu's newly raised dog can't take your turn to call and drink, you have the ability to catch a long-haired ghost who can speak my Ming official dialect to be a dog!" ”

"I'm not interested in this kind of dog with a handle", Jiao Lian said this and entered the negotiation hall one step ahead of Qi Changguo, and at this time, Bokut heard that Qi Changguo must be his dog, and the general named Jiao Lian called himself a dog with a handle, although these people in the Ming Dynasty already looked down on their own people, but Burkut still pretended to be stupid and smiled.

But what people didn't expect was that when Jiao Lian entered the negotiation hall, he was stopped by a negotiator from a Rakshasa country, which made Jiao Lian very depressed, and he almost wanted to beat someone, so he couldn't help shouting: "You long-haired ghosts dare to stop Lao Tzu, and you don't weigh how many catties and taels you have!" ”

These negotiators of the Rakshasa Kingdom naturally did not dare to sit on an equal footing with a Ming general like Jiao Lian now, so they naturally had to explain calmly: "This general has misunderstood, we negotiate with your country on behalf of the Tsar, and the object of the negotiation is General Qi Changguo, the Governor of the Left Capital of your Ming Dynasty, so he can only negotiate with us here." ”

"Grandma's, the long-haired ghost also looks down on people!"

Jiao Lian said that he directly put the knife on the neck of this Duke Morozov, but this Duke Morozov could not change his face, and he still looked at this Jiao Lian with no fear on his face.

And Jiao Lian saw that he didn't embarrass him too much, so he put down the knife, but he still walked in and sat at the long table in the center of the hall, and this Duke Morozov didn't dare to embarrass Jiao Lian anymore, as a more capable politician of the Rakshasa country, he can also know what forbearance is, especially in this kind of situation where his country is relatively weak, he has to endure humiliation.

Qi Changguo also walked in at this time, and also walked to the place where Jiao Lian was sitting in the center: "Get up, this is my position, and your position is on the opposite side!" ”

Jiao Lian snorted, and it was not good to be too unreasonable, so he got up and walked to the opposite side, and as soon as he sat down, he directly put the musket on his waist directly on the table, which frightened the officials of the Rakshasa country and couldn't help but shudder secretly, and at the same time sighed in his heart No wonder this Ming is so powerful, now it is just a Ming general who can fly like this, and I don't know if the Ming Emperor will be even more empty-eyed.

Qi Changguo didn't learn from Jiao Lian, and deliberately wanted to behave very arrogantly to scare these Rakshasa officials who came to negotiate.

On the contrary, in order to make these negotiators of the Rakshasa Kingdom a little more relaxed, and reduce their vigilance against themselves and achieve their goals more easily, Qi Changguo behaved quite politely than Jiao Lian, and took the initiative to ask:

"His Excellency Duke Morozov has been tired all the way, and he should rest for a few days before starting negotiations, but the matter is urgent, and the main fighters in my Ming Dynasty have long been dissatisfied with the official's intention to resolve the war between my Ming and Rakshasas, and advocate directly mobilizing the army to destroy your country in one go."

"But my Majesty Ming is a benevolent and righteous king, and I can't bear to fight against your country, so I must hurry up and sign a peace covenant with your country, so as to block the mouth of the country, and let His Excellency the Honorable Duke have to come all the way to negotiate with this official."

With that, Qi Changguo ordered Burkut to translate his original words to the Duke Morozov, and at the same time handed the Duke Morozov a treaty plan that he had already drafted.

After waiting for Bakut's translation, Qi Changguo threw the plan he had drawn up on the Ming side to the Duke Morozov, and said:

"If your country wants to sign a peace treaty with our Ming Dynasty, the following points must be met:

First, we must recognize the status of the suzerainty of our Ming Dynasty, and we are no longer allowed to claim to be the emperor, but can only be called the king;

Second, your country needs to cede to us the vast territory of Western Sipolia and the east of the Urals;

Third, your country should compensate me for the Ming Dynasty's expenses of 20 million taels of silver;

Fourth, your country should allow us to establish treaty ports in Moscow and other large cities in your country;

Fifth, your country should recognize the most-favored-nation status of the Ming Dynasty and allow the Ming Dynasty to establish concessions in more than 10 cities, including Moscow, and choose the area and duration of the concession. ”

When the Duke of Rakshasa Morozov heard this, he felt quite embarrassed, because before he left, the tsar of Rakshasa had clearly told him that if he ceded land, it could only be a few states in southern West Siberia, and if it was an indemnity, it should not exceed 500 yuan.

And Zhu Youxiao also saw him frowning, so he lowered his face and asked quite seriously: "What, is your country unwilling, then it's okay, just wait for my Ming army to come, and then it's not just as simple as cutting off Western Siberia." ”

Although Qi Changguo's language is very plain and he does not rely on the performance of domineering, he will also play with hidden needles, and began to threaten the Duke of the Rakshasa Kingdom, Morozov, and after saying that, he deliberately wanted to leave the negotiation table, as if he did not want to continue the peace talks.

In the end, it was the Duke of the Rakshasa Kingdom that Morozov had to choose to agree to Qi Changguo's various nonsensical conditions in principle, and begged Qi Changguo to continue to sit down and discuss the details with him.

Qi Changguo looked very embarrassed, and finally sat back in his seat, and deliberately spread his hands to the Duke Morozov and said, "Go on, what details do you want to change?" ”

This Rakshasa Duke Morozov cautiously said his opinion:

"First, although belonging to the Ming Dynasty is a thing worth celebrating for my Romanov Dynasty, His Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty has always been diligent in government and determined to reform, and the people of the country have always been lacking in talent and ability, so I am afraid that when I am subordinate to your country, my Majesty will be angry today."

Article 2: The cession of Sisipolya is sufficient, why should you want the Urals, which is the newly acquired land of the Lomonov dynasty, and there are many uncivilized people, and I ask your country to allow the contemptible state to govern on its behalf for a certain number of years.

As for the third article, 20 million taels is too much, although our Romanov dynasty has a lot of land and resources, but in the end it is also a poor people, a poor country, and many hungry people, and I ask your country to understand the difficulties of the despicable country, and it is better to pay 5 million indemnity."

"That's it! If your country does not serve me as the master, it is fine, but if there is a foreign enemy to invade or civil strife at that time, don't blame me for not helping you; For the second article, the area around the Ural River can not be cut, but you have to pay 30 million taels of silver for redemption, and a total of 50 million taels of indemnity, otherwise there is no need to talk about it! ”

Qi Changguo directly interrupted the words of the Duke of Rakshasa Morozov, and took out his own modification plan, and directly slapped it on the table, which scared this Morozov and couldn't help but tremble.

But Morozov still had to plead bitterly: "Please be considerate of your country, the amount of this indemnity is too high, can it be reduced to 30 million taels!" ”

"Smack!"

An official in the negotiation team of the Rakshasa Kingdom suddenly screamed and was shot directly, and then fell to the ground in a daze, and at this time, they saw that it was Jiao Lian who fired the shot, and only heard Jiao Lian say: "Grandma's, it's okay to have less than 30 million taels, but you have to change your head!" ”

The Duke of Rakshasa Morozov had never seen such a domineering and tyrannical person, but now he could only dare to be angry and dare not speak, and had to admit that the content of this treaty was basically correct, and then signed the treaty with embarrassment.

As for how the Rakshasa Kingdom scraped the ground to raise the 70 million taels of indemnity, Qi Changguo naturally didn't know, but until this would be the first time that other powers were forced to sign an unequal treaty with the Ming Dynasty, and it was not the last time.
