As a result, a familiar scene appeared for the people of Shu.

It's all one chasing, the other running.

It's just that the object and direction of chasing and running are reversed.

Morale is like this, as long as you start to retreat, it will be difficult to hold your ground, and you will have to escape from hysteria and liver and intestines.

In just thirteen days, Yun Yang led the Chu and Shu armies to drive nearly 50,000 Zhou troops out of the Shu territory.

At this time, the Zhou army did not stop until it fled to its own Fengxiang Mansion, and more than half of the materials plundered from Shu had already been discarded.

Guo Rong and Wang Jing looked at each other and smiled bitterly, God's will is like this, it is not a crime of war.

……。

Guo Wei has already seen the secret letter of Baili Wuji.

The letter said that if His Majesty Zhou was willing to negotiate peace, he could go to Xuzhou City to meet. The king of Chu has no taboo words.

Guo Wei sneered and shouted loudly to the messenger, if you want to fight, you can fight, and if you want to make peace, can you make peace?

The messenger was so frightened that he quickly lowered his head, and he didn't dare to gasp.

But Guo Wei had to admire the courage of Baili Wuji, and with the respect of the king of Chu, he dared to take only four people out of the city to meet with him outside the city, which is not something ordinary people can do.

Of course, Guo Wei is not willing to weaken his momentum, and he is the king of the world on the horse, and he has the pride to look down on the world.

Guo Wei sighed and said to the messenger: "Go back and tell the King of Chu that I agree to the meeting, but it is not a peace talk." ”

On the second day of June, five miles outside the city of Xuzhou.

The first meeting between Emperor Guo Wei of Zhou and King Baili Wuji of Chu.

Baili Wuji led four guards and five horsemen to the agreed place.

After counting the breaths, I saw the same group of five horsemen coming on the opposite side.

Baili Wuji looked at the man with a square face and a full face, and his eyes were full of eyes. Didn't speak.

Guo Wei also looked at this young man with a white face and a short beard and a calm face and was silent, Guo Wei knew that this battle could not be fought anymore. But Guo Wei never thinks that he will lose, so even if he wants to negotiate peace, he must strive for the greatest benefits, and of course, face.

Under this momentum, Guo Wei didn't want to be the first to speak.

Guo Wei is waiting for Baili Wuji to speak. After all, Guo Wei is the emperor, and even if Baili Wuji owns a large area of land, he is just a vassal king.

But Baili Wuji was immersed in the amazement of witnessing this legendary emperor. didn't realize that he should be the first to salute Guo Wei.

Although it is an opponent, the courtesy cannot be wasted.

The reason why Chinese civilization has a long history is the word "rite", even though it has now collapsed. But heroes are heroes. It is that they all have an obsession in their hearts, that is, humility.

No matter how powerful you are, if you are a vassal king, you have to pay a salute to the emperor.

You are just incompetent, if you are the emperor, you can wait for the vassal king to salute you.

Guo Wei waited, a trace of annoyance in his heart, does this kid sincerely want to suppress my momentum?

Baili Wuji is thinking about things in his heart. Silly.

After a long time, the restless neighing of the guards and horses around him recalled the wandering thoughts of Baili Wuji. At this time, Baili Wuji came back to his senses.

Baili Wuji hurriedly dismounted, hugged his fist to Guo Wei, and saluted: "Baili Wuji greets His Majesty the Emperor." ”

Guo Wei was impatient, but fortunately this kid was interested, so with a dry laugh, Guo Wei jumped off the horse, walked in front of Baili Wuji, and said, "The king of Chu is exempt." ”

At this time, the four guards around Baili Wuji quickly spread the brocade cloth on the horse on the ground.

Baili Wuji invited with his hand: "Your Majesty, please." ”

Guo Wei smiled and took the lead in sitting cross-legged on the brocade cloth.

Baili Wuji then sat down opposite Guo Wei.

The guards on both sides were on either side, holding the handle of the sword in one hand.

The two looked at each other and fell silent again.

After a long time, I only heard Baili Wuji speak: "Your Majesty wishes for peace?" ”

Guo Wei was stunned in his heart, he had seen too many battles, but he had never seen such a one-handed straight attack.

So, squinting his eyes, he said, "How to reconcile?" ”

Baili Wuji chuckled: "Take the actual occupied territory as the boundary. ”

Guo Wei was furious in his heart, this is a robbery, you kid attacked without announcing it, and he was caught off guard and had already occupied the land of several states of Zhou, and now he wants to accept it? No way.

Guo Wei sneered: "The King of Chu is so calculating. I haven't lost yet, does the king of Chu want to make an alliance under the city? ”

Baili Wuji twitched the corners of his mouth and said: "Your Majesty is angry, a certain is just a bargain, and Your Majesty is a bargain." ”

Guo Wei laughed angrily, this is quite new, the territory is regarded as a commodity, and the kings of the two sides have become merchants, bargaining here.

"If the king of Chu is sincere, he can retreat to the pre-war border, and I can consider peace talks."

"If Your Majesty orders the Zhou army to withdraw from Shu, you can make the Chu army retreat to the pre-war border."

Guo Wei raised his head and smiled, and said, "Then see you on the battlefield." ”

After speaking, he turned around and straddled the horse.

Baili Wuji did not stay, such a big event, how could it be achieved overnight, looking at Guo Wei and leaving, Baili Wuji knew that as long as Guo Wei was willing to come, it showed that he had the will to make peace in his heart, but it was just a matter of whether the conditions could be accepted.

And this condition is by no means the norm, but a dynamic.

For example, the situation on the battlefield of Shu is a variable of this condition.

Thinking of this, a smile appeared at the corner of Baili Wuji's mouth.

The elite of the Zhou State was attracted by themselves to the border between Zhou and Chu, while the Zhou army in Shu was isolated and helpless, and the Shu State had just been destroyed, and the people's foundation was not stable, Guo Da, why can't you see through it?

Guo Wei was already very tired, and the moment of conversation with Baili Wuji had already made Guo Wei feel that the kid was difficult.

I don't speak in a way that makes sense, and I don't care about etiquette at all.

This made Guo Wei feel as powerless as a fist hitting the air.

Guo Wei is not afraid of the combat power of the Chu army, but he has to take care of the Liao State in the north after this battle, and for the ...... of Shu, Guo Wei began to have a headache. Guo Wei asked in his heart.

Maybe the heavens heard Guo Wei's question, and at this time, the battle report came at the right time.

When Guo Wei saw Guo Rong and Wang Jing's battle report, his hands began to tremble, this, is this the day to die?

Guo Rong and Wang Jing were defeated and retreated to Fengxiang, if the combined forces of Chu and Shu continued to advance eastward, the flames of war would spread to the entire territory of the Zhou State, which was undoubtedly fatal to the newly established Zhou State.

However, if the peace talks were made on the terms of Baili Wuji, it would be impossible to explain to the subjects of the Zhou State, and it would be a great damage to the prestige of Emperor Guo Wei, and it would be just as fatal.

Guo Wei fell into a ...... of contemplation.

The battle report was also placed in front of Baili Wuji.

Baili Wuji has already read the contents, and his order is to let the Chu and Shu coalition forces under Yunyang's jurisdiction Fengzhou form a deterrent to the Zhou army, contain the Zhou army and not return to Kaifeng, if possible, take the opportunity to fight another battle with the Zhou army, but not occupy the territory of the Zhou State.
