501. Collusion
In Yanjing City, there is a gloomy cloud at this time. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
After the defeat in the field to fight more and less, the Jin people shrank across the line, retreated to Yanjiao, and then retreated to the city wall, the surrounding strategic places, seeing that the Han army was uprooted one by one, the number of Han troops was clearly less, but the Jin people with more numbers could not raise their heads, and a few Jurchen nobles who still had residual courage reluctantly organized an attack on the wandering small Han army, which made the Jin people even more frightened: as long as the number was almost the same, even if the other party did not use the terrible musket troops and artillery, it was enough to suppress the Jin people.
In the final analysis, the backbone of the escort army was the professional soldiers of the industrial age, and everyone had experienced professional training for as little as three years, more than five years, or even seven years, while the Jin soldiers, like most barbarian armies at this time, were herdsmen or hunters as the backbone, or farmers and craftsmen who were recruited.
In short, they are actually non-professional troops, compared with the professional soldiers of the industrial age, they do not have an advantage in individual combat effectiveness, and collective combat is even more disadvantaged, and the more people, the greater the disadvantage!
Therefore, Yanjing City, Yi Xian and others are anxiously looking forward to the arrival of Wu begging and leaving.
But the two of them have not arrived for a long time, and they can still get the news brought by the messenger at the beginning, and the separation is not hindered in Shanzhou, and Wu Qimai said that he will go north to rescue in the near future, and even the Wushu who is far away in Xijing has sent a messenger, saying that he wants Yanjing to hold on, and there will be changes in the near future.
But the change will not come until the "short day", and the Han army led by Yue Fei will not wait until that day to attack.
But he can make a decision with his idea, urge him not to buy with Wu Qi, or adjust the vulture East Asia's A Guta, who is still in a coma at this time, and hangs himself every day by relying on the ginseng stewed chicken soup prescribed by a few trembling Han doctors.
Therefore, when I heard that there was a person outside the city who came with a white flag, saying that he was coming to negotiate peace on behalf of the Great Song Dynasty, even if this person had neither an entourage nor a guard of honor, the golden nobles in the city still solemnly regarded this as a thing.
In particular, several traitors who came to the Song Kingdom were brought up, and when they saw the wooden box presented by the visitor, they all recognized the first achievement of the letter in the wooden box, which indeed belonged to Tong Guan and Wang Huang, and the Jin people were in high spirits.
Under the current situation, there is no need for the Song State to kill his two ministers to fool the Jin State, so it must be the "change" that Wushu said.
This "change" came at a good time!
"Please come to that envoy of the Song Kingdom!" The oblique is also the highest status at this time, so he opens his mouth to be the master.
After a while, Qin Hui was brought in.
Surrounded by golden people who looked at each other angrily, and half-unsheathed blades, but Qin Hui didn't squint, strode in, and only when he reached the door, he was stopped by a golden man jumping out: "Stop, what are you, you dare to walk into my Chinese army, kneel, kneel forward!" ”
Qin Hui glanced at him with a raised eyebrow, then turned around to leave.
The golden man was stunned, and after the golden man next to him was stunned, he raised his blades one after another, or shouted or cursed angrily, and for a while, the sound almost broke through the roof.
Qin Hui turned around slowly, with a sneer on his face.
"Don't think I'm here to wag my tail and beg to surrender, don't forget, my Great Song elite is under Yanjing City, this time I'm here, not for me, but for you to find a way out of Jinguo!" Qin Hui's words were powerful and powerful, of course, provided that no one noticed that his knees were trembling under his robe.
The calm on the face is driven by ambition, and the fear inside is due to the lack of courage.
But ambition and lust for power are enough to compensate for the boldness.
"Once you have entered the official career, you should know that this road must have an indomitable intention, and anyone who obstructs the monarch will be punished, regardless of whether it is friend or foe. If you don't have such an awareness, you might as well go back to your hometown and become your king! ”
His wife Wang's words echoed in his heart at this time, Qin Hui took a breath, thinking of his miserable life in the countryside with dozens of Mengtong, his heart suddenly became firm.
In the main hall, Xianye and the others looked at each other, and the eldest son of Ah Guda, Wanyan Shenguo, was angry in his heart, and suddenly jumped up: "Uncle! “
Xian Ye nodded slowly, smiled on his face, and then said, "Please invite the envoy of the Song State to enter, don't be rude." “
The voice came out, although Qin Hui couldn't understand the Jurchen words, he also knew that it must be the Jurchen nobles among them who spoke to let him in.
He entered it with his head held high, and among the Jurchens outside, those who could understand Chinese could be heard quoting scriptures and scriptures in the midst of it, sometimes threatening and sometimes compromising, while those who could not understand Chinese could only hear him talking, and no matter what the Jurchens in the palace said, he could dismiss it.
Soon, the Han people who acted as translators for the Jurchen nobles were silent, and those Jurchen nobles began to whisper, as if they were discussing what kind of conditions could be exchanged for Yue Fei's withdrawal.
Not to mention anything else, the return of Yanyun is probably something that Yue Fei must insist on, otherwise, Yue Fei will not be able to explain to his subordinates at all, but the Jurchens want to return only part of it - although the heat in Yanjing in June and July is unbearable, which makes the Jurchens very uncomfortable, but as long as they control some places here, they will be in a favorable position to attack and retreat and defend against the Great Song Dynasty.
Just when Wu Qimai and others met Qin Hui, in the backyard, in a big tent, Ah Guda slowly opened his eyes.
The low sobs that came from time to time around him made him very annoying, because it was simply a reminder that his body had reached the point of running out of oil.
This is the first time since the fiasco in the field that Ah Guta has woken up, and the concubine who accompanied her was overjoyed when she saw this situation, but Ah Guda drank twice, calmed her down, and then turned her eyes.
Not only is the brother not here, but even his son Shenguo is not here, which makes Ah Guda very strange.
"What about the slanted and rope fruits?" After drinking a cup of soup brought by the concubine, he had a little strength and asked in a deep voice.
"An envoy of the Song Kingdom came, and they all went to see the envoy of the Song Kingdom."
"Song envoys...... How long was I in a coma, during this time, what happened? Aguda asked with some urgency.
This concubine is a sharp tooth, and she explains things clearly in a few words. Ah Guda was silent for a while, then stepped forward and raised his eyebrows: "Help me up and help me put on my armor...... Clothes. “
Originally, he wanted to wear armor, but his body was so weak that it was a miracle that he was able to hold on until now. The concubine was shocked, and the guards around him also advised him to recuperate, but Ah Guta insisted on the order, so they had to obey.
After a while, Ah Guda was neat again, and with the help of the two guards, he walked out of the big tent and slowly walked towards the main hall in front of the tent.
At first, the weight of his body was almost all on the two guards, but when he reached the front of the main hall, the two guards were pushed away by him, and he strode forward like a healthy man!
Inside, when Xianye and others were discussing and Qin Hui was waiting, Ah Guda entered through the side door, and everyone didn't pay attention, and when he came to the center position, Xianye only found him, and almost jumped up.
"Get out of the way." A bone beats the order.
Diagonal also quickly moved out of the middle position, and Ah Gu meditated, looking at Qin Hui coldly.
Qin Hui was a little uneasy at this time, at first he thought that the oblique was Ah Guta, the most noble Jurchen here, but now it seems that the old man who came in front of him was the real Ah Guta?
"I want Yue Fei to die." Aguta said.
The interpreter translated the words to Qin Hui, and Qin Hui was startled: "What, what?" “
"I originally wanted Zhou Quan to die, but with your skills, I'm afraid you won't be able to kill him, this guy can only be dealt with by our Dajin. Then, Yue Fei, the main general of the Song army on the other side, I want him to die! “
Ah Guda's request was completely unexpected by Qin Hui.
Qin Hui didn't expect that Ah Guda would make such an obviously unreasonable request in such a situation.
"I don't understand what Your Majesty means......"
"What do you want?" Ah Guda's eyes were blazing, as if he could see through people's hearts, and it was still the barbaric and rude way of speaking that their Jurchens were used to: "Let me think about it, you are a civil official of the Song Kingdom, very good, I like you civil officials very much, what you want is nothing more than wealth and power, right?" “
Qin Hui's face was slightly gloomy, and he just wanted to say that he was a disciple of Confucianism, a disciple of a saint, and he didn't take personal wealth and power to heart, but when he met Ah Guta's gaze, he couldn't say these words.
Unlike those blappless Jurchen nobles just now, this guy in front of him, as long as his answer makes him feel dissatisfied, he will kill people next!
Moreover, Qin Hui also realized that a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity may be in front of him.
"If you want to be rich, I will give you wealth, not Dajin's, but Dasong's...... As long as you cooperate with us, the position of prime minister of the Great Song Dynasty will be yours in a short time...... Of course, you can also refuse, but, do you know the consequences of refusal? Not only will you achieve nothing on your mission this time, but I will let you return to the Song Kingdom alive in disrepute......"
Ah Guta's threat seemed to be just empty words, but Qin Hui saw his determination in the eyes of this old female man.
"The Song Kingdom has a new emperor, is he not afraid that the old emperor will re-ascend to the throne and depose him, even if he is not afraid, then if I surrender to Zhou Quan, and the Jurchen warriors all serve Zhou Quan, then the rivers and mountains of the Great Song Dynasty still belong to their Zhao family, and, under Zhou Quan's hands, will a civil official like you have your own position, and you yourself, can you live?"
Aguda asked a series of questions.
Unlike Xianye and the others, who were anxious to reach an alliance in exchange for Yue Fei's withdrawal, Ah Gu beat him now in a desperate gamble. Since Zhou Quan can't be defeated head-on, and Yue Fei can't withdraw his troops, then let the Song people deal with them themselves.
If the previous words only made Qin Hui afraid, then his series of questions made Qin Hui's heart pound.
Geng Nanzhong's recommendation of him here was not only his self-recommendation, but also the result of repeated discussions between the two parties. Geng Nanzhong had long regarded Zhou Quan as the greatest threat to the Great Song Dynasty, still above Liao and Jin, and Qin Hui himself now regarded Zhou Quan as an obstacle to his ascension to the pinnacle of power.
It was the new monarch Zhao Huan, if he hadn't been suspicious of Zhou Quan, he should have issued an order to Zhou Quan a long time ago and summoned him to King Qin, instead of crossing Zhou Quan and wanting to control Yue Fei.
"I'm not afraid of anything, we're just a tribe in Liaodong, we defeated the Liao State by luck, and achieved today's foundation, I have been the emperor for more than ten years, killing countless people, even if I lose to Zhou Quan, what's the matter, it's nothing more than a death, after I die, the Jurchens retreat to Liaodong, and they are still free. But what about you, you are more afraid of Zhou Quan than me, so when we join forces, it is Dajin who is helping you, not you saving Dajin! Ah Guda finally said: "Xianye, continue to negotiate with this Han people, I want the New Year's coin, Yan Yun, the Han craftsmen and Yue Fei's head, as for Zhou Quan...... Later, go and ask for it.
