Time slowly passed while Zhao Fei and Rentian were chatting, and after about an hour, Zhao Fei also climbed off the roof and returned to the house to rest.

Rentian, who was lying on the roof, had no intention of turning off the roof, looking at the twinkling stars, Rentian felt that it was not bad to lie on the roof for one night.

After Zhao Fei fell off the roof, not long after the moon, another pretty figure walked to the roof where Rentian was, and the visitor listened quietly under the roof for a while, and also climbed onto the roof with his hands and feet.

Rentian's half-squinted eyes opened slightly, and when he saw the figure of the comer, Rentian said in surprise: "Sikong Lanruo, why are you here too?" ”

"I'm panicked, I want to talk to you for a while, and I've been looking for a long time, but I've found you." Sikong Lanruo said, before he climbed on the roof, Sikong Lanruo had almost turned over the entire city, and he didn't even let go of the City Lord's Mansion, but he couldn't find Rentian, Sikong Lanruo thought about it carefully, Rentian should still stay in the house.

"I've never killed anyone, and I can't imagine that the first time I killed someone today, I actually killed so much that my hands were soft." Sikong Lanruo lay down next to Rentian and said in a somewhat panicked voice.

Rentian was deeply touched by Sikong Lanruo's words, if you don't kill people, you can kill people until you can't even count yourself, which of course will make people at a loss for a while, especially Sikong Lanruo, a woman who lives in seclusion in the sect and doesn't know the world, Rentian said: "To kill people, you also need to distinguish the object, in the face of killing people who must die, of course, you can't be soft, leaving these invading foreigners will only let the foreigners kill more soldiers of the Imperial Fang Kingdom, it is better for us to end these foreigners happily." ”

After listening to Rentian's words, Sikong Lanruo couldn't help but feel a lot happier physically and mentally, in fact, the reason why Sikong Lanruo wanted to talk to Rentian was not because he was really panicked, but because Sikong Lanruo saw that Rentian seemed to be a little unscrupulous, so he wanted to find an excuse to talk to Rentian.

After Rentian comforted Sikong Lanruo, he suddenly felt that the depression in his heart was swept away a lot, killing people is always a bad thing, especially the scene of rivers of blood, but if killing can stop the war and save more soldiers and civilians from being killed, then even if they kill the corpses all over the field, it is worth it.

After a meal with Sikong Lan Ruotian, Rentian also climbed off the roof to rest, Sikong Lanruo came to chat with him, Rentian felt that Sikong Lanruo came to comfort him.

After the Huangfang ** team won the city with the largest number of foreigners, the foreigners in the city in front of it had been slightly scattered, and with the change, the number of soldiers in the Huangfang country was also greatly reduced, and Wang Hu's army continued to advance at this time, which would undoubtedly be much faster.

On the way to the march, Wang Hu looked at the plains of Pingchuan and said to Chen Qifan: "The foreigners who invaded the Huangfang Kingdom can no longer become a climate, and in one more month, the lost territory of the Huangfang Kingdom can be recovered." ”

Chen Qifan said: "Marshal, this battle was won by the strength of the whole country, if the foreigners who invaded this time were wiped out by us, but the foreigners on the other side were not convinced, and they built ships to attack and disturb, is it possible, the imperial fang country has to be stationed and strictly guarded?" ”

Chen Qifan's words are probably not wrong, it is also unrealistic to let hundreds of thousands of strong men have been deployed along the coast, the integrated army is all from the people temporarily transferred from the people, these soldiers are family people, if the foreigners on the other side are desperate, this will undoubtedly make the emperor hurt the bones.

Wang Hu sighed heavily, and did not directly answer Chen Qifan's question, the most important thing at the moment is to take back all the lost cities and fight a battle that makes foreigners frightened, even if they want to solve other troubles, they can't do anything.

In the several wars along the south, Rentian and Chen Qifan joined the fighting, and there was no force to do anything without force, which was not the style of Rentian.

Seeing that the form of territorial recovery is getting better and better towards the side of the Imperial Fang Kingdom, the remaining foreigners stationed in the Imperial Fang Kingdom started the idea of gathering, and many foreigners gave up the occupied cities and took the initiative to move closer to the more powerful cities, which increased the difficulty of the Imperial Fang ** team to conquer.

Since the battle of Rentian to take the enemy's head, the Huangfang ** team went all the way south, and the foreign soldiers were defeated and retreated, seeing that there were still hundreds of kilometers away from the coast of the Huangfang Kingdom, and the territory of the Huangfang Kingdom could be recovered.

It was another sunny morning, and not long after Rentian's army started, there were scouts who quickly stopped in front of the army, Wang Hu waved his hand to signal the army to stop, and said in a loud voice: "How is the enemy situation ahead?" ”

"Back to the marshal, the other two armies have obeyed the marshal's orders and are waiting to assemble with the army dozens of miles away, and according to the spies' report, the foreigners closest to the coast have given up occupying the city, and all the troops of the foreigners have been stationed in a city two hours ago, ready to fight our army to the end."

The scout's reply caused Wang Hu to think deeply for a while, and seeing that the marshal did not give the order to pull out, hundreds of thousands of troops stopped on the road and waited for Wang Hu's order.

"The last city occupied by foreigners, how many foreigners are there?" Wang Hu Dao.

"According to the scout's estimates, there are still 100,000 foreigners left in the end."

The number of 100,000 is not a small number, and it is also wise for foreigners to abandon the pools of all the rest of the cities and gather troops to be stationed in one city.

The army walked dozens of miles and stopped, and the three-way army returned to Wang Hu's command again, and in the tent, Wang Hu looked at the generals of the army Rong Zhengsheng, and said: "After the unremitting battles of these rìzi, the lost land of the Huangfang Kingdom has been recaptured one by one, and now, we still have one last hurdle, who will tell me, how should we live." ”

Wang Hu gave everyone present the opportunity to talk freely, and immediately many generals proposed all kinds of construction, and there was a period of war with foreigners, and everyone had some experience with the foreigners' combat methods, and the generals who proposed to build yì informed Wang Hu of their thoughts, but did not immediately get Wang Hu's affirmation, Wang Hu thought for a while, and said to Chen Qifan: "Deputy Marshal, what do you think?" ”

When Chen Qifan heard Wang Hu's inquiry, he couldn't help but flash a trace of joy in his heart, and before the army stopped, he had already discussed the matter of the final battle with Rentian and the others.

Chen Qifan said: "The foreigners put on a posture of sworn resistance in the last battle, and their subordinates believe that in the face of the last city, we should persuade them to surrender. ”

"Persuasion?"

"Yes, persuade to surrender," Chen Qifan said: "In the last city, it is said that there are 100,000 foreigners who have gathered, if the Huangfang Kingdom chooses a decisive battle, this city will definitely be taken by us, but the result of this victory also requires us to pay 100,000 soldiers." ”

Chen Qifan's construction made almost all the generals present sound the voice of opposition, the current combat power of the Huangfang Kingdom far exceeds the foreigners a lot, there is no need to persuade the foreigners to surrender, in the eyes of the opponents, as the prince Chen Qifan is too cowardly, the Huangfang Kingdom was seized by the foreigners, this is a shame that needs blood to wash away.

Wang Hu did not say anything about the voices of the opponents, but said to Chen Qifan: "You tell me what are the advantages and disadvantages of persuading the Emperor to surrender." ”

"The advantage, obviously, is that the Imperial Fang Kingdom can take the last city without spending a single soldier, and the greater benefit is that once the foreigners choose to surrender, we can let the foreigners write a surrender letter, cut the indemnity, and sign an agreement, so that the foreigners will no longer commit the Imperial Fang Kingdom, we have the indemnity, with the agreement, and we can also reduce the loss of 100,000 soldiers, which is a mutually beneficial and win-win situation for both sides, as for washing away the shame of the seized city, the subordinates believe that these battles are enough for the foreigners to know the combat power and strength of the Imperial Fang Kingdom, It is a great power and a merciful move for us to let the foreigners surrender. ”

After talking about the benefits, Chen Qifan continued: "As for the disadvantages of persuasion, there must be, let 100,000 foreigners return to their country smoothly, there is inevitably a suspicion of letting the tiger return to the mountain, if the foreigner comes to invade again, the 100,000 foreigners who let go are the murderers who come to slash at our people." ”

Kill 100,000 foreigners, won't foreigners come to commit it again, Wang Hu sighed, looked at Chen Qifan's face that was a little rough by the wind, and suddenly felt that the emperor's decision to focus on cultivating Chen Qifan was not wrong, and he could start from the interests and long-term interests of the imperial country, and analyze it so thoroughly, if the lord of this country let Chen Qifan be, it would not necessarily be a bad thing.

"The deputy marshal's mention is undoubtedly very appropriate to get the foreigners to sign a surrender agreement and reduce the losses of our soldiers, but if we want the foreigners to surrender, we have not necessarily been willing to surrender."

Wang Hu's last sentence reminded everyone that letting the foreigners surrender was only their willingness, maybe they wanted to take the last city of the foreigners without blood, but the foreigners might not agree.

Emerson was immediately summoned into the tent, the first time to see a foreigner enter the tent, everyone was inevitably surprised, Wang Hu did not introduce Emerson to everyone, but directly asked Emerson: "If we want the foreigners to write a surrender and let them live, will the foreigners agree." ”

Wang Hu's words immediately made Emerson's face "exposed" and difficult to "sè", Emerson pondered for a long time before he spoke: "The foreigners should be willing to surrender, the foreigners came to the Huangfang country thousands of miles away, but also to grab resources, not to have any old grudges with the Huangfang country, if the foreigners are asked to pay compensation and write an agreement, they can save the lives of 100,000 people, I think the leader of the foreigners should agree." ”

Wang Hu nodded and said, "In this way, the matter of persuading foreigners to surrender will be handed over to you, so that 100,000 foreigners can live, and you can also be regarded as a lot of credit for your country." ”

I don't dare to think that if the foreigners in the last city don't treat him as a "jiān" undercover agent, Emerson will burn incense and worship the Buddha.

Wang Hu discussed with everyone for a while, and then instructed Chen Qifan to implement the relevant matters of persuasion, Chen Qifan from the army to divide a thousand people, temporarily learn the language of persuading foreigners to surrender, and when a thousand soldiers learned the foreign language "lay down the arms, surrender without killing", Wang Hu's army immediately went to the last big city.

"Rentian, did you say that the foreigners might surrender?"

Chen Qifan asked Rentian that if the final battle was handled properly, it would be of great benefit to the Imperial Fang Kingdom.

"It should be, the foreigners have no basis in the Huangfang Kingdom, even if the foreigners want to make a comeback, they will choose to redeem these 100,000 people first." Rentian Dao.

The three-way army merged into one, before the emperor was more victorious, the mighty army of "Dang" and "Dang" went to the last big city, and the momentum and confidence of the whole army reached its peak for a while, if the foreigners in the last city did not surrender, Wang Hu's army would not hesitate to slaughter them.

The army drove for several hours, and finally came to the last fallen city, looking at the dense foreigners waiting on the city wall, Wang Hu ordered the whole army to begin to besiege the city, and after all the siege matters were ready, Wang Hu signaled Chen Qifan to carry out the persuasion work.

1,000 soldiers shouted a uniform slogan to persuade surrender, the foreigners on the city wall heard the soldiers of the Imperial Fangguo who spit foreign words, and their hearts couldn't help but be slightly shocked, after the thousands of soldiers shouted dozens of slogans to persuade them to surrender, the foreigners seemed to have no intention of surrendering, Wang Hu then waved his hand and signaled the whole army to attack.

The siege of the Imperial Fang Kingdom swept through the city like a rainstorm, Wang Hu sighed slightly, the expected picture of the surrender of the foreigners did not seem to appear as scheduled, and the battle between the two sides on the city wall was undoubtedly a big loss for the Imperial Fang Kingdom.

Rentian has already been with thousands of troops and horses to fight for the city, set aside the countless swords and arrows above his head, Rentian and its dangerous way to be the first to climb the city wall, in the three armies known as "cutting thousands of people" Rentian immediately on the city wall to pull a large number of foreigners, at this moment Rentian has already put away the mercy mentality, quickly harvested the lives of foreigners.

After about a quarter of an hour of the war, when the soldiers on both sides were killed and wounded thousands, a foreigner with a white cloth shaking suddenly appeared on the city, and shouted out in a foreign language that the soldiers of the Imperial Fang Kingdom could not understand.

After a fierce confrontation, the leader of the foreigners also seemed to learn that it was difficult to stop the soldiers of the Imperial Fang Kingdom who were attacking like "cháo" water, and after Wang Hu ordered Mingjin to withdraw his troops, the soldiers of the Imperial Fang Kingdom retreated half a mile from the city wall.

The middle place between the city gate and the Huangfang ** camp temporarily became a place for discussion, and the slightly opened city gate walked out of a leader surrounded by dozens of foreigners, and Rentian also followed Wang Hu to come forward to negotiate, the core figures of the two armies met for the first time, and the foreigner leader pointed to Emerson and asked one after another, probably asking Emerson to be the interpreter of the Huangfang country.

Emerson said for a while with a difficult face, but the leader of the foreigners respectfully bent down to show respect to Emerson, and Emerson said to Wang Hu: "The leader of the foreigners is willing to surrender and ask you about the conditions." ”

After the surrender, there are only a few things that the losing side has to do, Wang Hu said: "Let the foreigners write a surrender letter of defeat, admit all the mistakes committed by the invasion of the Huangfang country, and never invade our country again, compensate 300,000 taels of silver, these 100,000 foreigners, and let you go back." ”

After Wang Hu's words were finished, Emerson was busy translating what Wang Hu said, and the leader of the foreigners pondered for a while, and communicated with Emerson for a while, and then Emerson said to Wang Hu: "The leader of the foreigners said that there is no problem in signing the avatar agreement, but the 300,000 taels of silver you offer is really unbearable, if the foreigner country has so much silver, it will not come to invade your country, the leader of the foreigners said, if you really intend to reach a peace agreement, the foreigner is willing to pay 100,000 taels of silver." ”

"Fart."

Wang Hu couldn't help but feel a little annoyed after listening to Emerson's reply, just the foreigners plundered the resources and goods of the imperial kingdom of millions of taels of silver, and the leader of the foreigners now told him that there was no silver available, Wang Hu said: "Your country has its own difficulties, but it can't be used as an excuse to shirk, 200,000 taels of silver, if the foreigners can't take it out, please return to the city immediately to fight with us." ”

Wang Hu's tone was very resolute, in fact, Wang Hu had already expected that the foreigners would not be able to readily agree to 300,000 taels of silver compensation, 200,000 taels of silver is Wang Hu's bottom line, no matter how little, it will be difficult to explain to the emperor, it is better to fight with the foreigners to the end.

After thinking for a while, the leader of the foreigners finally nodded and agreed to the conditions proposed by Wang Hu, this time the foreigners poured their efforts into "cháo", just to compete for the resources of the imperial country, and now the invasion plan was forcibly interrupted, if 100,000 soldiers could be saved, the 200,000 taels of silver would not be spent unjustly.
