"Young Marshal, do you want to see Shi Duo now? What did he say? Wang Wei asked.

This battle was obviously lost by the Manchus. However, I am afraid that the time has come for the war to end. As for Kawanishi's attempt to overthrow the Manchus in one fell swoop, it seems somewhat unlikely. Kawanishi doesn't have such a big appetite yet. Even the few provinces that were occupied had to be digested for a while. On the other hand, the Great Powers would not allow Western Sichuan to replace the Manchus. And now, Western Sichuan still lacks the strength to fully confront the foreign powers. If nothing else, as long as the navies of the great powers blockade the overseas trade routes of western Sichuan, the economy of western Sichuan will be severely traumatized. Although the local market in western Sichuan has also been cultivated for decades, and the people are relatively wealthy, it is obviously not able to digest the huge annual output value of western Sichuan.

"Don't be busy, let him dry for a while. Isn't it time for dinner soon? Let's have lunch first! Wang Yuze said with a smile. Since he could not overthrow the Manchus for the time being, he had to get enough benefits from the Manchus as much as possible. At the same time, it is also ready for war three years later. Three years later, if the Manchus were to lose again in the war with Japan, it would be time for Kawanishi to replace him.

Prince Seduo and his guards were placed in an empty tent. There were only a few chairs inside, and after sending them in, the orderly soldiers of the Western Sichuan Army seemed to have forgotten about them, and they didn't even pour a cup of tea.

Time passed slowly, it was already noon, and the smell of food wafted in the barracks. The food of the Western Sichuan Army has always been good, even in battle, if the battle is not fierce, hot meals will be prepared for the soldiers. After the western Sichuan army arrived in Beijing, the logistics officers in western Sichuan began to buy pigs and sheep in various prefectures and counties near Beijing to improve the lives of the soldiers. Although the people near Jingshi were very afraid of the Western Sichuan Army, they still knew the silver of the white flowers. In addition, the Western Sichuan Army did not lower the price, and many ordinary people were willing to trade with the Western Sichuan Army.

Now. Prince Li, Shiduo, and a cadre of guards were already hungry. After asking about the smell of food, I felt even more hungry.

"Lord Wang, the Western Sichuan Army doesn't take us too seriously! It's not enough to leave us out for so long. But there was no water, and the food was not prepared for us, so it was too unsightly. The prince is now a minister! Why don't the two countries fight each other? Is this how the Western Sichuan Army treats envoys? One of the guards said dissatisfied.

"Shut up if you don't want to die! Don't forget where this is! Prince Li said dissatisfiedly. Although, he was also very dissatisfied with this attitude of the Western Sichuan Army. But there is no way! There is a good saying, people are under the eaves and have to bow their heads. Now the Qing Dynasty is in this situation! If the western Sichuan army is provoked and the other party really attacks the city recklessly, it is difficult to say whether the Beijing division can hold it. When the time comes. I'm afraid that the Qing Dynasty will only perish. Compared to that, what is the big deal if he suffers a small sin?

After hearing Prince Li's reprimand, the guards immediately closed their mouths. He just wanted to curry favor with Prince Li, but if this sentence was heard by the Sichuan West Army, then he would be in big trouble. In the cognition of the Qing army, the western Sichuan army has always been extremely unreasonable.

After waiting for more than an hour, and the western Sichuan army had already finished lunch, Wang Wei came to tell them. The young marshal was ready to receive them.

After hearing that the commander of this army was actually the young marshal of western Sichuan. Prince Li Shiduo was also shocked. This is a lone expedition! If you are not careful, you will be wiped out, and the young marshal of the Western Sichuan Army actually dared to lead the army here, what a great courage this is! Shi Duo suddenly understood a little bit why the Qing Dynasty had been at a disadvantage in the face of the Western Sichuan Army. While they were content with the status quo and greedy for pleasure, the Western Sichuan Army had already been strong. It is no wonder that the territory of the Qing Dynasty was so much larger than that of western Sichuan. But in front of Sichuan Xi, he worshiped heaven and earth.

Subsequently, Prince Li Shiduo was taken to Wang Yuze's military tent. Originally. His guards still wanted to follow, but they were stopped by Wang Wei. Priest didn't care. Now he is in the barracks of the Western Sichuan Army, if the Western Sichuan Army wants to be unfavorable to him, it will be useless for him to bring more people there!

Shiduo is only forty-eight years old this year, but because of his pampering, he is very rich. He was white and chubby, just like a rich man. Although he had not seen Shi Duo himself, Wang Yuze recognized the other party at a glance. The military intelligence bureau in western Sichuan already had information on the high-ranking officials of the Manchu Qing Dynasty. Shi Duo used to be the foreman of the Military Aircraft Department, and naturally he was also under investigation by the Western Sichuan Army.

"Busy with military affairs, it is really rude to neglect His Royal Highness!" Wang Yuze stood up from his chair and said with a smile.

"The young marshal is serious!" Shi Duo was also looking at Wang Yuze. After seeing Wang Yuze with his own eyes, he was still shocked by Wang Yuze's youth. Although he knew that Wang Yuze was not very old, seeing a young man who was not yet twenty years old still made Shi Duo feel very shocked.

"I don't know what happened to His Royal Highness coming to the barracks of our army? Don't forget, our two armies are at war right now! Wang Yuze said with a smile. Although, he had already guessed the meaning of the priesthood, he still asked.

"Young marshal! This war was originally a misunderstanding. Since the start of the war, it has caused incalculable losses to both of us. Therefore, the court thinks that we should end the war and get back together! Sedori said.

"Haha!" Wang Yuze laughed. "Your Royal Highness, you seem to have forgotten about it, right? Although you provoked this war, it is up to us to decide when to end the war! Wang Yuze said toughly.

"Young marshal, I have to explain. This war was launched by the emperor at his will, and we absolutely do not approve of it. But the emperor insisted on going his own way and destroyed the relationship between my Qing Dynasty and western Sichuan, and we can't do anything about it! Now that the emperor is seriously ill and the government is presided over by the queen mother, we have decided to end this war as much as possible, which is not beneficial to both of us! Sedorth replied.

"Cixi is back in power? No wonder you send people out for peace talks! Wang Yuze said in surprise. It was the first time he had heard the news.

"The emperor is seriously ill. Therefore, the government is temporarily handled by the Queen Mother! Shiduo said with a smile on his face. Although he was a little dissatisfied with Wang Yuze's direct call to Cixi, he didn't dare to show the slightest expression now.

"Huh!" Wang Yuze smiled disdainfully. He had already guessed that it must be because of the defeat at the front, so Emperor Guangxu had been placed under house arrest by Cixi. For Emperor Guangxu in history, Wang Yuze was not good. The emperor who only knows utopian dreams and has no strength but still dreams of the revival of the Qing Dynasty can't even protect his own women, and he doesn't look like a man at all. It's just that Emperor Guangxu was put under house arrest by Cixi so early, which still has a great change from history.

"Young Marshal, this time I am very sincere in Daqing to end this erroneous war. Please also ask the young marshal to think about the people of the world and end the war as soon as possible! "Sedor's face is compassionate.

Of course, Wang Yuze will not be confused by this appearance, since the Manchu Qing has already sent it to the door, he will naturally not let it go.

"It is not impossible to end this war. However, you must pay for this mistake! Wang Yuze said with a cold face.

"Of course, of course!" Sedora nodded. Since ancient times, those who have lost a war have to cede land and pay compensation, and in this regard, Shiduo and the Empress Dowager Cixi have been prepared. I just hope that Kawanishi won't ask for too much price.

"To stop the war, my father has the final say. However, I would like to make two basic requests. First, in this war, we have suffered huge losses in western Sichuan, tens of thousands of soldiers have been lost, and all kinds of military materials have been consumed innumerable, and you must compensate us. I'll do the rough math, and I'll compensate us with 200 million taels of silver!" Wang Yuze said.

"Ahh Two hundred million taels? Shidor's eyes widened. Now the annual financial revenue of the Manchu Qing Dynasty is only more than 80 million taels! 200 million taels of compensation, then you have to eat and drink for two and a half years!

"The second one, naturally, is to cut the land. In order to compensate for our losses, you should cede all these lands to western Sichuan. In this way, the two of us will be able to form a new Qin and Jin Dynasty! With a pencil in his hand, Wang Yuze drew a straight line along the map of the Qing Dynasty's territory. This line not only drew Shaanxi, Hubei, and Yunnan-Guizhou, which had already been occupied by the western Sichuan army, but also the four provinces of Shanxi, Henan, Hunan, and Guangxi, which had not been occupied by western Sichuan. In this way, the Qing Dynasty will only have a small half of the land left.

"Young marshal, you, are you joking?" Shiduo said profusely sweating. If he dared to agree to such a request, it was estimated that as soon as he returned to Beijing, the Empress Dowager Cixi would kill him directly.

"Are you and I joking?" Wang Yuze said coldly.

"Young marshal, whether it is compensation or land cession, it is far beyond the scope of our Qing Dynasty. Can we talk about it again? Shiduo lowered his posture and said cautiously.

Wang Yuze shook his head, although he knew that the Manchus would never agree to such a request, but he still insisted. This can also put a lot of pressure on the Manchus. By the time of the final formal negotiations, Kawanishi will be able to take advantage of more.

"Young marshal, this is a big matter, and it is not for me to decide. I want to go back to meet the Queen Mother first, and ask the Queen Mother to judge! Sedor's face pale.

"Please! My patience is limited, though. I don't know when I'll start besieging the city. If I attack the Jingshi, it won't be just these conditions! Wang Yuze said with a smile.
