Chapter 522: Tripartite Talks 1

Beihai Province, drama county!

The Xiaoguo army came from the southeast, and the Wei army came from the northeast, towards Xixian County. As the master, Cao Bin, the governor of Qingzhou, naturally did not dare to be sloppy, except for accidents, he could not afford it.

Therefore, Cao Bin let the 5,000-strong army enter the county and straighten out the county. After the arrival of the guards and the Xiaoguo army, the south gate was given to the Xiaoguo army, and the east gate was given to the guards. This can be regarded as Cao Bin's statement, lest the two of them have any scruples.

Zhao Xun and Tang Xian both brought 3,000 people here, after all, it was a peace talk, and if they brought too much, they would inevitably be ridiculed.

The matter was urgent, and the three of them didn't do much else, and went directly to the talks, and the location was not the county official, but the plum garden where Zhao Xun met Cao Bin last time.

Seriously, the scenery of this plum garden is still good, especially in this hot summer, in this green garden, there is a unique flavor. Even in the heat of the day, people will be thrown aside.

Zhao Xun and Tang Xian each brought hundreds of personal guards and stationed in the plum garden. The plum garden is very large, and more than 1,000 people are naturally stationed. However, the importance of the peace talks is not to be wasted too much time here, and after a little news, we will prepare for the peace talks.

Zhao Xun is naturally not in a hurry or impatient, and he is full of praise for the scenery of the garden. But Cao Bin and Tang Xian don't have that mind, as the protagonists of the other two parties, it is about themselves, how can they not take it to heart.

In the midst of the plum garden, there is a small lake on which there is a pavilion. The venue for the talks between the three governments is here.

"You are Zhao Xun, the commander of the Xiaoguo Army?" Not long after Zhao Xun sat down, he was talking to Cao Bin when he heard a heavy voice.

Zhao Xun raised his head, and in front of him was a middle-aged man in his forties, burly, with a fierce face, and a kind of tiger and tiger domineering in front of him.

Zhao Xun is absolutely the other party, this is complete nonsense, can sit with Cao Bin and talk, and the young person, who else is there here besides himself? Even if there are people, at this time, Cao Bin will not let them enter here.

"No, it's really Zhao!" Zhao Xun said lightly.

"I, the commander of the guards, Tang Xian!" The middle-aged man said coldly. With a trace of murder and resentment on his face, a pair of eyes full of murderous intent looked at Zhao Xun deadly.

"Oh! It turned out to be General Tang, disrespectful and disrespectful! Zhao Xun said lightly, but his face was calm. This murderous aura, Zhao Xun didn't pay attention to it at all.

"At a young age, the achievement is not small! I think that when I was as old as you, I was just a small officer of the Guard strata. Tang Xian looked at Zhao Xun, who was silent, and couldn't help but sigh.

"It's just luck!" Zhao Xun replied indifferently.

"Luck? There are countless people in the world who are as old as Zhao Dadudu, but there is indeed no second in the world if Zhao Dadu is so strong! However, I have to say that Zhao Dadudu's luck is really good, if it weren't for the indulgence of the imperial court and Li Huaiyuan's indulgence, how could Zhao Dadu have achieved such an achievement! The governor of Youzhou, with hundreds of thousands of soldiers, dominates the land of Youzhou, Hebei and Qingdao, and the entire north, don't dare to disobey! Tang Xian sneered.

Seriously, he was jealous and angry about Zhao Xun's current achievements. In his opinion, this Zhao Xun can't be compared with him at all. He Tang Xian is a general who kills from the battlefield with a knife and a gun, and who can understand the hardship, fatigue, and sadness? But it was this Zhao Xun who, in just a few years, climbed to such a high position and became the overlord of the north, and no one dared to underestimate him.

When Zhao Xun heard this, his face remained unchanged, but he was unhappy in his heart. What do you mean by this, despisy shì me, luck? Nima's, my current status is that I fought out of the mountain of bones and blood, and you dare to underestimate me? The indulgence of the imperial court, the indulgence of Li Huaiyuan? Then why don't you do it if I kill the Tatars alone and regain the lost land? Dominating the land of You, Hebei and Qingdao? Isn't this provoking the relationship between me and the Qingzhou government army?

"How dare you compare with General Tang, as a general of the guard, he disobeys military orders and arbitrarily mobilizes the army, and he doesn't even pay attention to the champion general appointed by the imperial court. My little movement is far worse than your old age. I didn't meddle in Qingzhou's affairs, the governor of Pontus was able to lead the army to appear in Qingzhou, to be honest, it really dragged you to the old fortune. Zhao Xun said coldly.

After Zhao Xun finished speaking, Tang Xian's face suddenly turned extremely ugly, and he said, "Governor Zhao, don't you know how to maintain respect for a senior?" Here, Governor Zhao, you are a junior, you won't even understand this truth. ”

"Respect? I really don't see anything about General Tang that deserves my respect. 100,000 troops, two years of conquest, even the Xuzhou army was helpless, and they also attacked our army privately. How? Are these deeds worthy of my respect? The front waves of the Yangtze River push the back waves, and one generation is stronger than the next. The Governor of Pontus said that it was luck, did General Tang really think that the Governor of Pontus had relied on luck to get to where he is today? The governor of Pontus was able to defeat the Yan army of the four prefectures of Youbei with his battalion, and then conquered the south and the north, recovered the lost territory, and surrendered the northern Zhuhu of Youzhou, which is also luck? The Governor of Pontus has relied on the sword in his hand to get to where he is today, and if he wants the Governor of Pontus to respect him, he should show the qualifications to make the Governor of Pontus respect. Zhao Xun said coldly.

"Also, who does General Tang like to stand and talk? Even if General Tang had this quirk, Pontus did not have the habit of looking up to others. Zhao Xun said with a sneer.

For those who don't give themselves a good look, Zhao Xun naturally won't give each other a good look. As soon as Tang Xian came, he beat himself openly, and he didn't look at his ability, so Zhao Xun didn't bother to give the other party a good face.

"You...... Okay, good, Governor Zhao is really majestic! Governor Zhao, although you have the advantage now, I think that if you capture Jizhou and fight in Qingzhou for nearly three months, logistics are also a problem. Can you be sure you can eat me? Tang Xian snorted coldly and sat down, and said in a deep voice.

"Really? You, General Tang, go back and continue to fight. The governor of Pontus doesn't care, even if he is sleepy, he will also trap your guards to death in the northeast of Qingzhou. It is you, General Tang, who want peace talks, not Pontus. Zhao Xun snorted coldly and said disdainfully.

"The two adults are angry, we are here to talk peacefully, not to fight." Wang Yanqing saw that Zhao Xun and Tang Xian's tone became more and more intense, and hurriedly said.

Cao Bin turned the corners of his mouth slightly, sneering secretly. This Tang Xian still does not change, he was arrogant to himself at the beginning, and he was ashamed to surrender to himself, but now that he has reached this point, he has to fight with Zhao Xun.

Provoked by Zhao Xun's few words, Tang Xian also realized that he was here to talk about peace this time, and to put it mildly, he came to seek peace. If Zhao Xun really patted his ass and left, he would really cry and couldn't find a place. Not to mention anything else, if Zhao Xun really didn't attack, but trapped around the guards, he would really be trapped here.

Now the territory of the guards can't afford to raise an army of 50,000 at all, and if they want to survive, they can only reduce the army, if this is the case, his guards will really be useless.

"Well, General Ben won't be as knowledgeable as your impudent perfection today. Let me say it directly, Zhao Xun, what are your conditions? Tang Xian said stiffly.

Zhao Xun smiled coldly, casually looked at the pavilion for the swimming fish in the small lake, and said softly: "Since General Tang wants to take the initiative to sue for peace, then please tell General Tang the price you are willing to pay." Zhao Xun deliberately bit the word active.

How could Tang Xian not understand what Zhao Xun said, but at this moment, he could only resist the urge to pat his ass and leave, and said in a deep voice: "Since Governor Zhao said so, General Ben will also say it directly." I am willing to give up Lingzhou Mansion, Jiaodong Mansion and Xiaoguo Army, but I ask you that Xiaoguo Army must not do anything to our guards, and in addition, the Navy Army must not block the maritime trade routes of our Guards, prohibit the blockade of our Guards' merchant ships coming and going, and do not interfere with the actions of our Guards' merchant ships. Of course, our guards will not take the initiative against the Xiaoguo army. ”

"Haha......" Zhao Xun laughed in a daze, and said: "Lingzhou Mansion has been taken by my Xiaoguo army, why did you cede it to the guards." Besides, this Lingzhou Mansion is a place that I have negotiated with Cao Dudu, and it has nothing to do with your guards. I can't agree to what you say! ”

"Someone, bring me who I need!" Zhao Xun continued.

A moment later, Li Yanzong and others were brought over, in addition to Li Yanzong and other people who were captured at sea, there were also Xuzhou army spies captured in various parts of Qingzhou, a total of more than 300 subordinates. At this moment, they were all caught on land not far from the small lake.

"General Tang, these people, you should know who they are. Except for this one, a few other people, you, General Tang, have all seen it. Zhao Xun said coldly.

Tang Xian's face changed slightly. Among the more than ten people brought over, except for the three who didn't know, the rest were all people sent by the Xuzhou Army to contact him. But now, they have fallen into the hands of the Xiaoguo army. What shocked him even more was that two of them were supposed to be in Gaomi County, but now they also fell into the hands of the Xiaoguo Army. What does this mean? It means that Xiaoguo Jun can quietly take people away under his nose. What if you want to kill someone? Is it easy to do it?

"These people are all sent by the Xuzhou Army to ally with General Tang and prepare to attack from the north and south, the other party, my Xiaoguo Army and the Qingzhou Mansion Army, you say, can I let go of the blockade of your waters? General Tang, whether you really want peace talks or not is up to you. Zhao Xun said with a sneer.

Tang Xian's face changed suddenly, and this Zhao Xun clearly made him get in touch with the Xuzhou Army. If you want to make peace, you can, first eliminate the hookup between you, otherwise, I feel too much pressure.

Zhao Xun didn't look at Tang Xian, looked sideways at the goldfish in the lake, and scattered the fish food on one side into the water, watching all kinds of fish compete for food.

Cao Bin frowned and said, "General Tang, what the Metropolitan Governor said is true?" Do you want to ally with the Xuzhou Army? One south and one north, I really look up to my land of Qingzhou! I didn't expect it, I really didn't expect that the former sworn enemies could join forces today. It seems that you are bound to win Qingzhou for me! The tone was cold, Tang Xian heard it very clearly.

"Haha...... How could I cooperate with a rebel! Come on, pull them down for me, cut them off! After a while, Tang Xian suddenly laughed.

When Li Yanzong heard this, he was taken aback and said, "General Tang, I am Li Shuai's nephew, you can't kill me!" ”

Tang Xian's face changed slightly, but he still didn't change his decision, and waved his hand fiercely. Suddenly, the guards who came with Tang Xian pulled these more than ten people down.

"Wei Dong, let our people pull those three hundred people out of the plum garden together and hand them over to General Tang's subordinates, so that they can deal with it! Hanging his head and outside the city, a notice was issued, saying that someone intended to mistreat General Tang and was killed by General Tang on the spot! At the end, Zhao Xun smiled again: "Cao Dudu, I will act as a substitute, I won't mind!" ”

Cao Bin smiled: "It's okay! Looking at Tang Xian's ugly face, Cao Bin couldn't help but feel happy. At the beginning, Tang Xian coerced the Qingzhou government army and almost fought with the government army, but it was the Donglai Mansion Xiaoguo army that helped him, so he failed to fight. As a result, he led the guards to raid the Xiaoguo army in Donglai Province, and the war has been fought so far. Aside from anything else, Cao Bin still has a good impression of Xiaoguojun. Especially now that he has no hope of being self-reliant, he has no intention of competing with the Xiaoguo Army.

Tang Xian didn't understand that what Zhao Xun meant was to let him and the Xuzhou army officially break up. In Xixian County, there must be spies from the Xuzhou Army. Think about it, Tang Xian made the spies of more than 300 branches of the Xuzhou Army in Qingzhou, and didn't make Li Chi feel distressed for a while? This spy is not easy to arrange.
