Chapter 094: Fight with your brain
Hu Erchi saw that Yang Zhi always maintained a condescending posture, and coped with it in the midst of talking and laughing, and fought-for-tat everywhere. Knowing that he had met an unprecedentedly powerful opponent, he became more and more careless.
It is said that there is no trivial matter in the country and that this discussion involves the national dignity and major national interests of Bactria and the Turks, and the substantive and concrete peace talks have not yet begun.
With a solemn expression, he took a step forward, and repeated his old trick as if dealing with the crown prince Zhao Heng: "General Yang, the Tu Evil Khan sent Prince Suoli and his subordinates to lead an envoy to Chang'an to negotiate peace, in order to show His Majesty the Emperor of Great Xia the greatest peace sincerity of our Turks. In order to show my respect for the Emperor of Great Xia, I can only submit my credentials to His Majesty the Emperor of Great Xia. β
This kind of sophistry of stealing concepts actually made the prince and Wang Yunong helpless, and in Yang Zhi's eyes, it was simply a pediatric not worth mentioning.
Yang Zhi smiled: "Oh? According to what you say, the letter of state should be delivered to the Great Xia Emperor by your Khan in Chang'an, so as to show the Turkic peace sincerity and respect for the Great Xia Emperor. What qualifications do you have to present your credentials to the Emperor of Great Xia? β
"I am a Turkic national teacher who was ordered to send an envoy, and I am here on behalf of my Turkic Khan, so I naturally have this qualification."
Yang Zhi was waiting for his words, and asked with a smile: "Very good." Dare to ask the National Teacher, who am I? Could it be that if you can represent the Tu Evil Khan, I can't represent the Great Xia Emperor? β
suddenly lowered his face and reprimanded: "You are obviously despising Great Xia and pretending to be clever, and you have no peace sincerity!" Not to mention that there is no slightest respect for the Great Xia Emperor! β
Zhao Heng and Wang Yunong looked at each other, their faces full of shame: people only need to say a few words, and they are already offensive and defensive in an instant! Do you dare to say that this is not a skill?
If this demon king didn't even have this ability, the Great Xia Emperor wouldn't have to change people halfway. Hu Erchi said as usual: "General, I don't think I'm busy submitting the credentials first. β
Yang Zhi said coldly: "Then what do you think you should be busy with first?" β
Hu Er Chi said sternly: "Since Great Xia has agreed to negotiate peace, why did he order General Wei to select tens of thousands of elite cavalry to wage war against the Turks?" I asked Daxia to arrange peace talks between the two sides as soon as possible, but why did the general repeatedly refuse it on the grounds that he was busy with personal affairs? I sent a personal entourage to convey the attitude of the Turkic mission to Bactria , why did the general brazenly kill him? The Turks and Great Xia were equal in strength and status, so why did the general arrange the peace talks between the two sides in the lobby of the forbidden army camp? Is this what your self-proclaimed kingdom of etiquette is doing? Before the formal peace talks between the two countries, I would like to express my strongest protest to Bactria on behalf of Tu Xie Khan! β
He looked indignant and questioned. There was an overwhelming momentum between the words, and what was said was an undeniable fact, not only Zhao Heng and Wang Yunong were ashamed, but all the military generals were also silent.
Yang Zhi will never let him change the topic. He asked noncommittally, "Excuse me, in what capacity are you protesting to Great Xia?" β
"Of course, as a Turkic national teacher who was ordered to send an envoy to Great Xia."
"You and I don't know each other, how do you make me believe? How do you prove your identity? β
Hu Erchi was stunned when he heard this, and then realized that Yang Zhi was not fooled, and he was still forcing himself to take out the national credentials obediently. Qiang Zi quibbled: "General Wei sent troops from Shuofang to escort him. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of Great Xia and the Prime Minister personally went out of Chang'an to greet him, which is proof of this. β
Yang Zhi replied without thinking: "General Wei also often sent troops to escort Turkic captives back to Beijing, which is not enough to support. The crown prince and the king are deceived by your disguise, and they can't be counted. β
He is able to speak well and argue, but Yang Zhi is not clever and eloquent? Hu Erchi was speechless for a while, speechless. Knowing that the first battle has been defeated, I am afraid that it will not work if this national letter is not handed over.
Just after a little hesitation and thinking, I saw Yang Zhi say angrily: "You can't get a certificate of state, and you can't prove your identity, you are obviously a desert rogue wanderer pretending to be a Turkic national teacher!" Come! Drag this guy out and cut it down! β
The two clashed. Yang Zhi realized that this person was a rare and outstanding talent of the Turks, and he secretly had murderous intent at that time, how could he leave him time to fully react?
The emperor granted him the right to act arbitrarily and cheaply, and everyone knew it. Zhao Heng and Wang Yunong had already choked in front of Yang Zhi, and the military generals also knew that he was cunning and cunning, and he was not inferior to his martial arts skills.
Prince Soli, who had been sitting proudly on the side, was full of resentment, and Huo Di got up and was about to step forward, but was stopped by Hu Erchi with a stern gaze. The Turks sent a mission of more than 30 people to Chang'an. If you want to fake it, it's a fake nest, how can you fake me alone? Hu Erchi calmed down and secretly observed Yang Zhi's expression. He didn't believe that Yang Zhi would really kill him!
Several wolf-like sergeants stepped forward. Tied up Hu'er like a chick, but he didn't panic.
Yang Zhi saw it in his eyes, and sneered again and again in his heart: Just kidding! Turkic elites like you have been sent to the door by themselves, do you still want to fight against Great Xia in the future? Just saying that you alone are an imposter is just to keep Prince Soli's stupid big man to continue the peace talks. Do you think Lao Tzu won't dare to kill you? Whether the two sides can negotiate or not, you are dead today!
Wait until Khurchi is pushed out of the lobby door. Yang Zhi still didn't mean to stop it, he was still at ease. He didn't even glance at the sergeants until the sergeants tried to make a gesture on Hurchi's neck with their shiny steel knives.
Only then did Khurchi be convinced that the madman did not take the precious life of the teacher of another country seriously, and shouted: "Misunderstanding! General Yang, this is a misunderstanding! We have a national credential with us! And let Prince Suoli take it out, and submit it to the general for inspection! β
"Got a national letter? Then bring it back first! In fact, Yang Zhi also secretly admired his courage to gamble with his life, took the national letter that Prince Suoli hurriedly presented, and threw it aside without looking at it. smiled: "If you had submitted the credentials to me for inspection earlier, wouldn't it have saved everyone trouble?" The national teacher was frightened! ββStill not loosened? β
As soon as the fierce and difficult Hu Erchi bumped into Yang Zhi's hand, he was rubbed and pinched like a child! The prince and Wang Yunong were dazzled and dissatisfied! It is said that playing is a heartbeat, and many generals have also seen that the battle between the two is not easier than the battle of the army, and they are more and more reluctant to be distracted.
Prince Soli and Khur's faces turned red, Prince Soli still gritted his teeth and said nothing, and sat back in his place proudly, and Khur stood beside him with a black face.
Yang Zhila lowered his face and said coldly: "Master Guoshi, before the two sides start formal peace talks, I will declare your so-called strong protest null and void. Originally, I was too lazy to talk nonsense with you. But in order to let you know what is the state of etiquette, what is the kingdom of China, and what is to convince people with virtue, I will still reason with you. It's also good for you. β
"I have two theories, one is very simple, and the other is a little complicated, I don't know which one the national teacher would like to listen to first?"
Although there was a hint of fear in Hu Erchi's expression, he had never seen Yang Zhi's eloquence that reversed black and white. I asked myself that the previous protests in Great Xia could not be denied. I was quite unconvinced. After a little calmness, he replied, "Then I'll listen to the general's simple statement first." β
Yang Zhi smiled cruelly: "The simple way to put it is that my Great Xia has beaten your Turks and scattered them if you are afraid, and you don't dare to fight and don't want to fight, so you will come to Chang'an to ask for a truce and peace." And my Great Xia not only won the battle, but I am not afraid to continue to fight with you to the death. Great Xia and Turkic are obviously strong and you are weak, how can you say that the status is equal? In that case, what happened to Great Xia sending troops to war? What about the rejection of peace talks? What's wrong with killing you and keeping your relatives? What's wrong with arranging peace talks in this lobby? I made it clear that I was bullying you, so what? Simple enough, right? I wonder what the National Teacher thinks? β
The people on the Great Xia side couldn't help but open their eyes, except that Geng Chao already had a deep understanding of his brilliant theory. Many other military generals heard it with their eyes shining and their faces full of admiration: dare to love, this can also be called convincing people with virtue? Joyfully! It's fucking fun!
Khurchi can be called the top Turkic diplomatic expert, and he has mediated countless disputes between many tribes in the desert in his life. Before the Turks fell into civil strife and division, they also participated in peace talks with Bactria and Northern Yan and the Western Regions on many occasions. Although Yang Zhi's "very simple" statement is true, at the official negotiation table, it is the first time that Hu Erchi has seen someone so unscrupulously bullying the weak so bluntly.
Deng Shi was so angry that his face trembled with purple, and he held back his anger and said: "The general is blatantly bullying the weak with the strong, how can he convince me?" β
"That's why I said there's another, slightly more complicated one." Yang Zhi first raised the big stick of diplomatic recognition: "First, it is my Great Xia who really holds the greatest sincerity for peace, not you Turks. Originally, you were not qualified to negotiate peace with Great Xia, and I didn't need to check any national documents. Until now. The only Turkic khan recognized by the Bactria Emperor was the Tutu Khan. Why do you have to negotiate peace with the Western Turks of your evil khan? Isn't it possible to negotiate peace with the Eastern Turks of the Right Virtuous King? If Great Xia reconciles with the Eastern Turkic Covenant and sends a large army to attack him from both sides to help him unify the desert, can you tell me whether the throne of the evil king can still be kept? β
This is exactly what the Evil King and Kuerchi are most worried about. Otherwise, how could they take the initiative to send envoys to negotiate peace? Yang Zhi hit the Western Turks seven inches with one mouth, and the cold sweat on Hu'er's bare back couldn't help but roll down.
"Second, since the founding of the Great Xia state, the Turkic raids and plundering on the borders of Great Xia have never stopped. Although the two countries have also concluded numerous peace treaties over the past few decades, which time was it not the Turks who had no faith in breaking the peace treaties and provoking war? Great Xia, of course, is the kingdom of China, and of course it is the state of etiquette. But it's definitely not a lamb to be slaughtered! If you want to fight, you can fight and make peace, why can't I fight in Great Xia? Before the peace talks between the two countries were reached, they were still sworn enemies. What is the mistake of General Wei ordering tens of thousands of elite horsemen to kill the enemy for the country? β
"Third, you also mentioned that Great Xia is a powerful country and the victor of this spring's war, so the time and place of the peace talks are of course my Great Xia. If you send your relatives to harass and urge, you will be killing yourself! Then damn it! Damn it! This is the charter you want to talk to me about! If you are not satisfied, you might as well fight Daxia next time and go to the Turkic royal court to negotiate peace, and then handle it accordingly. β
"This is my slightly complicated statement, what do you think?"
ββ¦β¦ I retracted my protest to Great Xia. Kuerchi had no choice but to relent: "General, I have the greatest sincerity for peace, and it is for the long-term peace of the two countries. You and I don't have to dwell on unnecessary disputes, please arrange the details of the negotiation as soon as possible. β
"Okay!" Yang Zhi replied cheerfully: "I don't like nonsense, please tell me about your Turkic conditions first." β
After a moment's hesitation, Khurchi puffed up his chest and said: "Tu Xie Khan sincerely hopes that the alliance between the two countries will be reconciled, and after that, he will voluntarily call himself a minister, and give a thousand horses and 10,000 cattle and sheep to Daxia every year. On behalf of the Tu Evil Khan, I would like to ask His Majesty the Emperor of Bactria to reward the Turks with one million taels ......of silver every year. β
Yang Zhi saw that what he said was still the same as the terms of peace on Wang Yunong's concert that day, and his eyes were fierce.
Khurchi was forced by his gaze to shrink his neck involuntarily, and continued: "...... 100,000 catties of tea and 50,000 horses of silk. The two countries are bounded by the Great Wall. No aggression against each other from the date of the Covenant, never again at war. β
I've spent so much effort in front of me, have I worked in vain? Yang Zhi listened patiently and couldn't help sneering again and again. Hurchi looked at him with a grim smile. Zhiwu said: "General, before sending a delegation to Chang'an to negotiate peace, the Tu Evil Khan repeatedly told his subordinates that in order to show the sincerity of our Turkic peace, we can make appropriate concessions to Great Xia, and you and I can discuss slowly. β
Yang Zhi was not angry and said with a smile: "Before the Great Xia Emperor ordered me to preside over the peace. I was also told again and again that I could negotiate with the Turks slowly. Do you want to hear about my peace talks in Daxia? β
Hu Erchi couldn't help but be secretly smug in his heart, didn't he want to bargain with me slowly? He replied, "I wish to listen to you." β
Yang Zhiyi said nonsense in the gourd painting: "In order to show the greatest peace sincerity of Great Xia, I would like to put forward the following conditions for peace talks on behalf of my Emperor Great Xia. In the battle between Shuofang and the desert this spring, our Great Xia suffered heavy losses, and the war losses imposed by the Turks on the Chinese Dynasty for hundreds of years were even more immeasurable. Bactria demanded that the Turkic Bactria compensate 20 million taels of silver, and thereafter paid tribute to Bactria with 2 million taels of silver, 500,000 war horses, and 1 million cattle and sheep every year. β
Kuerchi never expected that he would open his mouth to ask for a price in the sky, and he opened his mouth wide in shock and shouted, "Oh my God! β
"Shut up! I'm not done yet! Yang Zhi shouted viciously: "The Turks must select one hundred beauties every year to present to His Majesty the Great Xia Emperor. The Turks retreated a thousand miles north of the Great Wall. The two countries are bounded by the Kang Ai Mountains and the Jinshan Mountains. Since the date of the Covenant, Bactria and the Turks have not invaded each other and will never fight again. β
Prince Suoli, who had always been arrogant and did not say a word, stood up suddenly, and Kuerchi hurriedly glanced at him, and replied: "General, the terms of peace talks proposed by Great Xia are far from our Turkic side, and neither Prince Suoli nor his subordinates can make the decision. Why don't we make a temporary return to the desert with our Turkic mission and report the conditions of Bactria to the Tu Evil Khan, and then the two countries will negotiate another day? β
Want to slip away? Dream! Yang Zhi said angrily: "Can't be the master? Then what the fuck are you talking about in Chang'an? The Emperor of Great Xia is sincere, and you Turks are regarded as child's play! Now I declare on behalf of the Great Xia Emperor. The peace talks between the two countries have broken down completely! Come on, drag Kuerchi out and cut it down! β
Wang Yunong saw that Yang Zhi was looking for excuses to kill Hu Erchi several times, and knew that he was really motivated to kill. Hurriedly dissuaded: "Please Flying Tiger Hou to take a break from the wrath of the thunder!" There is a way that the two countries are at war and do not come to the war, and Khurchi is a Turkic national teacher who came to negotiate peace on behalf of Tuxi Khan. He is a key figure in the success of the peace talks between the two countries. The Marquis of the Flying Tiger must keep in mind the painstaking efforts of the emperor to negotiate peace with him, and he must not be so brutal! β
All the military generals felt that Wang Yunong was reasonable, and they didn't believe that Yang Zhizhen dared to kill Hu Erchi. In this way, wouldn't Great Xia fall into a situation of fighting to the death with the Turks? Only Geng Chao felt a little chill in his heart: this guy has always been unfathomable, and if he can say it, he can definitely do it!
The crown prince Zhao Heng had an ambiguous smile on his face. I wish Khurchi died as soon as possible. I just didn't get the advantage and didn't negotiate, but you talked about the field that there is no way back! What if you have the skills? Messing up the strategic plan of Great Xia, do you think your father will let you go?
There was a dead silence in the lobby, whether it was the Great Xia side or the Turkic side, everyone's eyes were on the murderous Yang Zhi.
One of the famous Flying Tiger Marquis, the other was a respected Shoufu University Scholar, and the sergeant who tied up Hu Erchi again asked at a loss: "The villain asked the Flying Tiger Marquis and Lord Wang to show me, what should the villain do with this Turkic national teacher?" β
Foolhardy? It's called fighting with your brains! Yang Zhi ignored Wang Yunong, who was anxious, and shouted: "What should I do? If he doesn't die today, you will die for him! β
