Chapter 55: Peace is a wise move

Chapter 55: Peace is a wise move

The old crow that Xu Hongqian refers to is the Taoist official of Jingshi City. The officials of the Kedao were in a lowly and powerful position, and their responsibility was to advise the emperor on the impeachment of unscrupulous officials. The Great Zhao Dynasty did not say that the punishment could not be punished by the scholar doctor, but the punishment of the Taoist official is indeed a real existence, the dynasty has been nearly three hundred years, and it is not uncommon for civil and military officials to be killed by the court staff, but there has never been a science and Taoist official who has received the court staff.

When it comes to science and technology officials, Song Yuren also has a headache, but he prides himself on being a Ming Jun, what if he can't take these science and technology officials.

"At this time, it will be handled by Xu Qing, and there is no need for the foreign court to discuss." Song Yuren said to Xu Hongqian that such a disgraceful thing as peace can only be carried out in secret, and if it goes through court discussions, not only will the peace matter come to naught, but Song Yuren himself will also cause a commotion, and he is not a person inside and outside. Waiting for the matter to be negotiated with the Meng ancients, the raw rice has been cooked and cooked, if those science and Taoist officials jump out to oppose it again, they will be helpless against Song Yuren, at most they will scold him for not following the ancestral system.

"The minister thinks that there is something wrong with this, according to the regulations, the matter of peace needs to be discussed by the foreign court, and then a decision is made, and the council and the envoy make peace with the minister." Xu Hongqian was a little shaken, not only did most of the officials oppose the peace, but the Zhejiang party officials headed by Lu Zongcheng must also oppose the peace.

Unlike the science and technology officials, most of the people who can sit in the science and technology officials are clear people, and most of the science and road officials cherish their names and will not form parties to tarnish their reputation. The officials of the Zhejiang Party headed by Lu Zongcheng are Xu Hongqian's sworn enemies, Xu Hongqian wants to negotiate peace, and the officials of the Zhejiang Party will not let Xu Hongqian fulfill his wish. Xu Hongqian was worried that once this matter was stabbed, it would become a lever for the Zhejiang Party to attack him.

"In the name of the Ministry of War, the ancient people will be charged." Song Yuren lowered his voice and said, "I have all approved the runic documents required for the line to the Ministry of War. Specific matters: Xu Qing and Peng Qing set out to do it. ”

"In the name of the Ministry of War, I am afraid that the Meng ancients will not buy it." Xu Hongqian shook his head, and in the name of the Ministry of War, he discussed with the Meng ancients, obviously having the meaning of underestimating the Meng ancients, and the Meng ancients were not fools, so they would not know.

"Huh." Song Yuren smiled and said, "It's true that the ancient people of Meng would not buy it in the past, but Xu Qing don't forget, Peng Qing is also the secretary of the Ministry of War, and it is very suitable for the ancient people to pay money to the ancient people in the name of the Ministry of War." ”

"That being the case, Wechen is willing to give it a try." Xu Hongqian suddenly realized that the Meng ancients were afraid of Peng Chaodong, and it was not impossible to negotiate peace with the Meng ancients in the name of Peng Chaodong, and with the aftermath of the great victory of Jianshanmen, this time the Meng ancients negotiated peace, as long as the operation was done properly, it was very likely to succeed.

"The person who chooses a reliable person as the envoy of this line of money must be reliable, and the matter must be kept confidential." Song Yuren finally explained a few words to Xu Hongqian.

When Xu Hongqian walked out of the gate, it was already the beginning of the fourth watch, and the frame of Xu Hongqian's servant framed the car in front of Xu Hongqian, held up an umbrella to block the wind and rain for Xu Hongqian, and asked Xu Hongqian to get on the frame. Coming out of the main hall, Xu Hongqian's crimson official robe was already wet, and at this time, the rain hit the official robe, making it difficult to distinguish whether it was sweat or water on the official robe.

――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

In the lobby of the Thousand Households Mansion of Pingshan Fort, He Tengxiao read Shang Chuanren's "Nantao and Northern Strategy" in the hall He Tengxiao was in the army for two generations and served as a grassroots officer, and his military quality was not bad. But there are still hundreds of years between the two lives, and the reality is too different. The military knowledge he mastered in later generations could not be used in a rigid manner, otherwise it would be self-defeating. However, in light of the actual situation at present, it is still feasible to appropriately borrow some military experience from later generations.

The writing of "Nantao and Beiluo" is relatively straightforward and simple, which is inseparable from Shang Chuanren's martial arts background. But that's also good, and the more straightforward language won't be so difficult to read.

It was almost dusk, the sky gradually darkened, Yuan Zhengyu saw that He Tengxiao was still studying in the lobby, and lit the two oil lamps on the table in the hall. After lighting the oil lamp, he didn't bother He Tengxiao again, and tiptoed out of the lobby and turned back to the back office of Qianhu Mansion.

The construction of the Pingshan Fort on Yunguam Island has been completed, and there is basically no official business these days, and there are many fewer official documents on the He Tengxiao case.

He Tengxiao snorted, stretched his waist and prepared to go back to the back office. Before he got up, Ling Feng didn't know when he had entered the lobby.

"Little Third Master, there's news from Jinzhou City." Ling Feng presented a wax pill to He Tengxiao.

He Tengxiao opened the wax pill, took out the cotton paper sealed in the wax pill, spread it on the table and flattened it, and carefully read the fine words on it.

"Peng Chaodong, this is going to negotiate peace with the Meng ancients." He Tengxiao finished reading the contents of the tissue paper and handed it to Ling Feng, and Ling Feng took the tissue paper and looked at it.

"Why do you want to make peace with the ancient people?" After reading the content on the paper, Ling Feng felt a little incredible, the Jianshanmen Great Victory Qin Army won the 10,000th level of the 12 Menggu tribes, and it was completely possible to continue to fight with the Menggu people, knowing that the Menggu people would be defeated, "The Menggu people are not better than the Liao army, if the Liao army is a hard stone, the Menggu people are soft persimmons, and if they don't fight, they will negotiate with the Menggu people and their subordinates really can't figure it out." ”

Ling Feng still knows a little bit about the ancient people, and the Xiaoqi camp has also conquered Chahar Menggu, but the Chahar Menggu at that time was beaten by the Xiaoqi camp all over the ground to find teeth, and he fled into the depths of the desert in embarrassment, and did not dare to face the Xiaocai camp. Ling Feng couldn't understand what such a barbarian tribe had to be afraid of, and after a big victory, he had to pay the Meng ancients.

The Menggu tribe was once very prosperous, and twice became the biggest threat to the northern frontier of the empire. First, at the beginning of the country, the Meng ancients had just been driven out of the Saiwai, and the strength of the Meng ancients was still very strong, and they were broken and plundered from time to time. Second, during the Muzong period, the Meng people invaded the Yellow River Hetao area, threatening the northern regions of Shaanxi and Shanxi, and even had great influence on the barbarians outside Ganzhou in the northwest.

But the current Menggu has already been crippled by Peng Chaodong five times, and has been divided into more than a dozen tribes, large and small, and each tribe has even conquered each other for food.

"It will not be beneficial for the Qin army to fight any longer, and it would be wise for Peng Chaodong to negotiate peace with the Meng ancients." He Tengxiao said, "The Meng people are easy to defeat, but they are not easy to eliminate, Peng Chaodong fought the Meng people for 30 years, and only expelled them from the Yellow River Loop, and never completely eliminated the Meng people, why is this?" ”

"The ancient people are too good to run, once the battle is unfavorable, the ancient people will escape into the depths of the desert, the horses of the ancient people are faster than our horses, we can't catch up with them, and besides, it is too risky to go deep into the grassland to pursue the ancient people." This point Ling Feng is still clear, in the tenth year of Zhenyuan, the Xiao Cavalry Battalion once defeated the Meng Gu of the Chahar Department, and only beheaded more than 300 levels, and the Meng Gu saw that the Xiao Cavalry Battalion was difficult to deal with, so he did not fight with the Xiao Cavalry Battalion, and Tiemu Khan immediately led his troops into the depths of the grassland.

"Yes." He Tengxiao nodded, "And the Meng Gu people can't make much noise now, Peng Chaodong runs Liaodong, mainly to suppress the Liao State, and entanglement with the Meng Gu people is not good for him, and he can't look down on the little military merits of the Meng Gu." ”

"Does the little third master think that Peng Chaodong's move is far-sighted?" Ling Feng asked.

"Peng Chaodong is a man." He Tengxiao nodded, "Peng Chaodong's greatest contribution in the past thirty years has two ends, one end is to pacify the troubles in the northwest, and the other end is to pacify the ancients, the merits of these two ends are enough to achieve his reputation as a capable minister, at this time, he can put down his body and risk the risk of infamy to negotiate peace with the Meng ancients, how many people have such a mind since ancient times?" Zhao Liao competed in Liaodong, Meng Gu is just a supporting role, but they can't be underestimated, I am big Zhao Meng Gu, then I can also threaten the left wing of Liao and suppress the expansion of Liao. Liao's sprouting ancient times, the left-wing threat of Liao's State is eliminated, and Da Zhao's national defense pressure in Liaodong will be greatly increased, and Da Zhao will also be more passive in the face of Liao. ”

"In this way, Ling Feng understands." Ling Feng nodded, and presented the tissue paper back to He Tengxiao.

He Tengxiao held the cotton paper close to the flame of the oil lamp, the cotton paper was light and thin, and the kung fu burned to ashes in an instant: "Pay attention to the dynamics of Jinzhou, this matter is very important, if there is relevant news, be sure to tell me as soon as possible." ”
