Chapter 208: Cow's Heavenly Conditions
Ouyang Xiu bowed deeply to Xu Yangzheng and said: "Lord Xu is loyal to the country and has a social mind, which can be called an example for courtiers. However, Lord Xu is inevitably too stubborn, and he needs to know that what a courtier wants in his life is nothing more than to meet the master to show his ambitions. So I would like to ask Lord Xu below, have you ever met the master? ”
Xu Yangzheng thought about it and shook his head. Ouyang Xiu laughed and continued: "Since Lord Xu admits that he has not met the Ming Lord, it is reasonable that Lord Xu will be unable to take revenge in his heart. What Lord Xu met is not the master, and Lord Xu still thinks that your lord can obey you, which is obviously impossible. So in my opinion, there is no need for Lord Xu to be sad about this. It is necessary to know that good birds choose trees to perch, and good people choose to do things, and Lord Xu should find another job. ”
Niu Tianci nodded with satisfaction, and sat on the chair on the side to watch Ouyang Xiu dig a pit for Xu Yangzheng. Ouyang Xiu saw that Tianci was satisfied, and immediately took out the small book just now, tore off the page and grinned at Tianci. Tianci nodded, and Ouyang Xiu quickly burned the page to ashes with a candle flame.
After doing this, Ouyang Xiu continued to fool Xu Yangzheng.
"Master Xu, imagine if there is a peerless king who has the people of the world in mind, has a family and country in his heart, and is able to set the country in his heart, and he is so humble, so kind, and so inclusive. Whether you are right or wrong, he will be able to listen carefully and take the best out of it, elevate your mind to new heights, and make it a reality. Let the people of the world, the country and the society benefit because of you, and let your name be admired through the ages, such a king, do you follow or not? ”
"Follow, you have to follow, crying and shouting must follow." Xu Yangzheng replied categorically.
"Wow, now that such a person is in front of you, what are you waiting for?"
Ouyang Xiu bent over, his hands leading Xu Yangzheng's gaze towards Niu Tianci. Tianci wanted to laugh but couldn't, so he had to sit there in a majestic posture. Xu Yangzheng blinked, stood up and knelt down in front of Niu Tianci.
"The lord is above, Xu Yangzheng swears to the sky, from now on abandon the dark and turn to the light, swear to follow the lord to the death, and please don't dislike the lord."
"No, no, absolutely not. Yangzheng is invited to get up quickly, Yangzheng can come, and God is like a tiger with wings. Come on, come on, sit down quickly, Ben Shuai wants to have a long talk with Yang Zheng. Xiaoxiu, pour wine. ”
Ouyang Xiu was tearing off a thick pile from the notebook at the moment and sending it to the candle flame. Xu Yangzheng was envious when he saw it, he turned his head to Niu Tianci and said, "Lord, my subordinates have a reluctant request, and I also ask my lord to agree." ”
"But it doesn't hurt to talk about it, Yangzheng invited Ben Shuai to agree."
"Thank you, I don't want anything else to raise Zheng, I just want to have a little book like Ouyang Xiandi."
Hahahaha, Niu Tianci smiled and leaned back. Ouyang Xiu immediately stuffed his small book into Xu Yangzheng's hand.
"Brother Xu Gaoyi, this book was given by the lord himself, and now it is transferred to Brother Xu. Brother Xu even took the above account as well. ”
Xu Yangzheng took the small book and looked at it, only to see that it was densely written: On a certain day, a certain month, the lord punished thirty boards, and kept accounts temporarily. After a hasty calculation, there are not a thousand but eight hundred boards in just a few articles. Xu Yangzheng held the small book with both hands and respectfully returned Ouyang Xiu.
"This is a gift from the lord, it is very precious, for the brother is useless, it is better to ask Ouyang Xian to enjoy the gift of the lord alone."
Hahahaha, Niu Tianci, who had just laughed, was amused by Xu Yangzheng again. Who said that Xu Yangzheng was old-fashioned, you see that he just followed Niu Tianci and immediately became shrewd and capable, even a master of digging pits like Ouyang Xiu can't do anything to Xu Yangzheng, it can be seen that Xu Yangzheng is indeed a talent.
Niu Tianci patted Xu Yangzheng on the shoulder and said, "Yangzheng is a righteous man and a gentleman, don't take a break from school." The commander will not punish his subordinates for no reason, and even if he is punished, he must let his subordinates understand what is wrong and how to improve in the future. Besides, Ben Shuai's punishment of his subordinates is all out of the law, and he never uses lynching. Our Flying Tiger Regiment has long abolished criminal punishments such as military sticks, and the main mistakes made by soldiers are confinement and punishment, demotion, and demotion. You don't have to worry about it, you will slowly get used to it in the future. Come, running around for days, it's time for Yangzheng to have a good meal. Eat first, and then get down to business after eating. ”
After dinner, the three of them drank tea and talked about business. Ouyang Xiu briefly introduced to Xu Yangzheng the purpose of the Flying Tiger Legion and the expected results it wanted to achieve. Overall, even if the troops are withdrawn now, there will be no loss for Niu Tianci. For many days, the confrontation with Jeberi was not very fierce, and the defense was mainly to consume the enemy army. The Rong tribes in the area occupied by the Flying Tiger Legion on the grassland were all imprisoned, and a large number of cattle, sheep and horses were sent to the northwest and Youzhou respectively. It can be said that these alone are enough to offset the attrition of this battle, and of course it is better to get more benefits from the captives. In fact, Niu Tianci didn't expect to gain benefits through negotiations, it was better to negotiate than to rob it, presumably Su Meiduo thought the same way.
Tianci handed a piece of paper to Xu Yangzheng, and on it were the conditions listed by Tianci.
1. The Rong Department must immediately send Emperor Xingsheng back to Luan, and if Emperor Xingsheng does not return for a day, the Flying Tiger Legion will not withdraw for a day, and will definitely increase the attack on Dingyuan and Tianluo City until Emperor Xingsheng returns to Luan or conquers Dingyuan and Tianluo City.
2. All the terms imposed on Dayan by the Rong Legion must be unconditionally abolished, otherwise the Flying Tiger Legion will fight a bloody battle with the Rong Legion to the end.
3. The battle was started by the Rong Ministry's seizure of the Dayan Emperor, and the Rong Ministry's compensation must be made for it. ceded Dingyuan City; compensate the Flying Tiger Legion for 100,000 taels of gold and 1,000,000 taels of silver; 300,000 war horses; And pledged not to harass the territory of Dayan again.
Fourth, the Rong Department must ensure that the western trade routes are unimpeded, and shall not interfere with, intercept, or plunder the Dayan and Manggul caravans in any form, and if there is any violation, it will be deemed that the Rong Department has declared war on Dayan and Manggul, and Dayan and Manggul have the right to launch a war against the Rong in their own way, at any time and in any place.
Fifth, the Rong Department presents 100,000 war horses to the Youzhou Festival envoy every year, and Youzhou can buy war horses from the Rong Department if necessary, but all war horses shall not be castrated.
There are not many clauses, but each one is aimed at the throat of the captive. These terms are handed over to Long Xingrong, can he agree? Xu Yangzheng raised his doubts. Ouyang Xiu smiled and said: "Brother Yangzheng, now you represent the lord, it doesn't matter if Your Majesty agrees or not, you just need to hand over these conditions to Su Meiduo." ”
"yes, I didn't think of that. I'll give it to Sumedo directly, and I'll see what she can do. Hahaha, Ouyang Xian's brother is wonderful, the lord is a god, and Yangzheng admires it. ”
"Don't come here to this vain, Ben Shuai only asks you, is it happy to do this?"
"It doesn't get any more enjoyable than this."
"You have to remember that in the future, you will represent me in relations with other countries, and you must remember that the interests of the country are above all else. In negotiations, it is necessary to be powerful and gentle. From now on, you are no longer facing your opponent alone, there is me, us, the Flying Tiger Legion and the people of the whole world behind you. ”
"The lord ~~~, raise the righteousness and die to repay the grace of the lord."
A few days later, Xu Yangzheng returned to the Great Khan's royal city. He met Su Meiduo directly, handed over Niu Tianci's conditions to Su Meiduo, and turned to leave. Su Meiduo looked at these five conditions, and his face was very ugly. Just when she was about to attack, the messenger sent by Bayintu Khan sent shocking news, Manggul 300,000 heavy armored cavalry, 100,000 Anxi cavalry combined forces, slowly advancing towards the grassland, Bayintu Khan mobilized nearly 400,000 troops, blocking in front of Manggul and Anxi armies, and the young and strong troops in the northern part of the steppe were almost completely mobilized by Bayintu. The two sides are currently facing each other, and several contact battles have ended with Bayintu losing troops and retreating step by step. Bayintu Khan demanded that Sumedo increase his troops again.
Su Meiduo frowned, such as today the Wolf Khanate is facing a situation of being attacked on three sides, because the connection between the Far East and the steppe was cut off by the Flying Tiger Army, the troops in the Far East could not be smoothly transferred to the steppe. The 300,000 elites of Jebeli were pressed to the death on the Dingyuan line and could not get out, and there were no surplus troops on the grassland to deal with the attacks of the Flying Tiger Legion, Manggul and the Anxi Army.
Sumedo gritted her teeth and made up her mind.
"Niu Tianci, I'll let you go this time, you wait, someone will naturally clean you up."
Su Meiduo took the initiative to come to Long Xingrong's accommodation, and Long Xingrong was overjoyed to greet him.
"Mei Duo, why are you here, is it the withdrawal of the Flying Tiger Legion?"
"Your Majesty, it seems that your tiger does not listen to you, look at what this is."
Long Xingrong took the clause and was furious when he saw it, and tore the clause to shreds with a few clicks.
"Bold and rebellious, Niu Tianci should be killed. It is a great sin not to obey my will and to collude with Manggul. Don't be afraid, Meadow, I will make another decree to let them withdraw quickly, and I will not agree to these terms. ”
"Your Majesty's sincerity Su Meiduo has seen it, and the agreement between you and me is still valid. But Your Majesty can't stay here anymore, if you stay here, it will be a disaster for the Celestial Wolf Khanate. So please go back to Mukden, Your Majesty. If Your Majesty still wants to come, then wait until the day Your Majesty has fulfilled the agreement. Prime minister, send His Majesty Emperor Dayan back to Beijing on my behalf. ”
Su Meiduo turned around and left without looking back after speaking, ignoring him no matter how Long Xingrong called. Mu Lun stopped in front of Long Xingrong and smiled and said, "His Majesty the Emperor should go back to Dayan, as for His Majesty the Emperor's request, it is better to do it according to the agreement between you and our Great Khan." Congratulations to His Majesty the Great Yan Emperor. ”
"Congratulations to His Majesty Emperor Dayan."
Even if Long Xingrong is unwilling, he can't stop leaving, and if he doesn't leave, he won't even lose the dignity of the emperor. Long Xingrong's royal car left the city of the Great Khan, and Mu Lun was sent to the gate of the city, and after bowing, he returned to the city by himself.
His Majesty Long Xingrong, Emperor of Dayan Xingsheng, led his entourage in the direction of Dayan. Long Xingrong, who was extremely angry, sent Xu Yangzheng and Taohua to the camp of the Flying Tiger Legion with the holy decree and ordered Niu Tianci to withdraw his troops.
When Xu Yangzheng and Peach Blossom arrived at the camp, they saw 100,000 soldiers of the Flying Tiger Legion waiting for them in a neat formation. Peach Blossom urged the horse to come to Niu Tianci and was just about to speak, but Niu Tianci stopped him with a wave of his hand. Tianci stretched out his hand to take the holy decree and pulled the peach blossom to the front of the big array. One hundred thousand soldiers looked at their commander with excitement and eagerness in their eyes. They felt that this time it must be Rong Yu who admitted it, and fully agreed to the conditions of the marshal. As soon as Dingyuan City was recovered, it was equivalent to half of the grassland returning to the arms of Dayan, which was an unsurpassed glory, and the soldiers were full of excitement waiting for the marshal to announce the good news.
Niu Tianci patted Peach Blossom's back and said to him with a smile: "Read." ”
"Huh? Niu Hou, it's not appropriate to declare here, right? ”
"Read!"
"Niu Hou, don't embarrass the slave when you think about the past friendship, right?"
"Read!!"
Niu Tianci's coerci exuded from his body, so that Peach Blossom had to choose to give in. He trembled and opened the holy decree and read: "Carried by heaven, Your Majesty's edict says......"
"Say !! out loud"
Peach Blossom opened her throat and read: "Fengtian carrier, Your Majesty's edict said: Commander of the Flying Tiger Legion, Envoy of Youzhou Festival, Cangshan County Waiting for Cattle God." did not respect the holy will, was arrogant, and sent troops to attack friendly countries without authorization, resulting in a deadlock in the peace talks between Dayan and the Heavenly Wolf Khanate. I was very angry, and Niu Tianci immediately withdrew all the units of the Flying Tiger Legion and all evacuated the grassland. I am not allowed to see a single battle flag of the Flying Tiger Army where I pass, and I am not allowed to leave a single soldier or general of the Flying Tiger Army, and those who violate the order will be punished for rebellion. In addition, Niu Tianci's five clauses against the Heavenly Wolf Khanate were not discussed with me in advance, which was an act of Niu Tianci's transgression, and none of the five articles he asked me to accept. Niu Tianci was ordered to return to Youzhou immediately to think about it, and he was not allowed to leave Youzhou for half a step without a purpose. Niu Tianci was wildly disobedient and arrogant, and was fined for one year and demoted to the third class. After waiting for the Yushi Taixiang investigation, the three provinces will finalize the case and then deal with it again. Chin this. ”
After the announcement was completed, Peach Blossom didn't even dare to raise her head. With strong martial arts, he felt the majestic murderous aura coming towards him, and the 100,000-strong army was silent, only bursts of murderous aura rushed straight to Xiao Han. Peach Blossom lowered her head and presented the holy decree to Niu Tianci, who picked up the holy decree and threw it to Ouyang Xiu.
"Xiao Xiu, publish Your Majesty's will to the world, and let the people of Dayan see how majestic our Majesty is."
Peach Blossom was almost lying on the horse's back.
"Ma Qimeng!"
"The last general!"
"Bombardment Dingyuan!"
"The last general obeys!"
Boom, boom, boom, violent explosions sounded, and Dingyuan City was shrouded in a sea of fire. Jebeli, who held on to Dingyuan, had to leave behind 50,000 defenders and lead a large group of men and horses to temporarily withdraw from Dingyuan City to avoid heavy losses. Although Niu Tianci is very arrogant, the Flying Tiger Legion is too bullying. Although the wolf riders were all bloodied and clamored for a decisive battle, Jeberi remained calm and strictly ordered all armies not to fight. At this time, Jebeli was no longer the arrogant and impulsive young man he used to be, he had become a treacherous and cunning wolf king. When it's time to hide, he hides himself well, and when it's time to strike, he quickly shows his fangs and claws and bites down on the throat of his prey. Now is not the time for him to attack, because there is no need for this, Niu Tianci will leave immediately.
When Long Xingrong's royal car came to Wolf Mountain, he was greeted by 20,000 Suzhou cavalry. The 20,000-strong army silently watched Long Xingrong's royal car, without cheers, war drums, or welcoming music. The Praetorian Guard General really couldn't stand this atmosphere, and urged his horse to come to the Suzhou army formation and raise his arms and shouted: "Dayan is mighty, Your Majesty is victorious." ”
The Suzhou army was still lifeless, and the Praetorian Guard General just wanted to be angry, but he felt the cold and disdainful eyes shot by the 20,000 soldiers of the Suzhou Army, and the Praetorian Guard General lowered his head and returned to the team with a weak heart. All the soldiers of the forbidden army lowered their heads and remained silent, just kept knocking the flying tiger with their feet, urging the war horses to go quickly.
"What's going on? How so? Peach Blossom, what's going on? ”
"Your Majesty, Niu Hou ......"
"Cow God!"
"Niu Tianci will publish His Majesty's holy decree to the world."
"Cow God! Kill, kill, kill~~~~~~. (To be continued.) )
