Hearing Ji Chuan mention Li Yuan, Zhu Luo, Song Zhengben came out and said: "Li Yuanjun is not ashamed, if he is not afraid of my lord, why should he send you here to humble and make peace?" ”
Ji Chuan looked at the other party, ranking first among the ministers on Dou Jiande's side, and knew that it must be Dou Jiande's mastermind Song Zhengben. To convince Dou Jiande, this person must be the first to be knocked down.
Ji Chuan said at the moment: "Peace is not fear, but for the two armies to turn hostility into friendship, it is peace that benefits both sides, and war causes two injuries." ”
Song Zhengben said loudly, "I have only heard of the side of the couch, how can I allow others to snore." Peace is two benefits, and war is two injuries? ”
Ji Chuan looked at Song Zhengben and said: "The Turks have 400,000 iron horsemen in the grassland, and they are fighting for the world in the south, is King Xia enough to stop it?" Li Tangxi according to Guanzhong, south to take Bashu, east into Hedong, the world three and live in one of them, now with Li Shentong as the general, Yu take Shandong and Hebei, is the Xia army enough to block? ”
"Li Yuan is good at forbearance, and pays tribute to the Turks, in case one day, the two families unite, the Turks take Yanyun in the south, Li Tang River goes east, and then another general goes out of Hanoi to connect the heroes of Shandong, is the king of Xia enough to refuse?"
"This." Song Zhengben was short of words for a while.
At this time, Ling Jing bowed his head and said, "Then how do we know that if our Xia army starts a war with the Turks and Li Tang, Youzhou will not take advantage of the fire to rob it?" ”
Ji Chuan arched his hand and said: "This is exactly what I came to negotiate for this peace." ”
Ling Jing sneered and said, "There is no basis for what you say, how do you want us to believe it." ”
Ji Chuan said: "Youzhou, the hometown of Yanguo, the road has the danger of Yanyun, the land is connected to the male of Taihang, the water has the convenience of Tongji Canal, and the money has the Rao of Zhuo County." There are perennial side plugs, so everyone is accustomed to bow horses, and the ancient saying has Yunyan Zhao Jingbing, which is the hero of the world. ”
Ji Chuan was talking eloquently in the big tent, although he knew that this person was a lobbyist, but everyone showed a look of listening carefully.
"There are Turkic, Khitan, and Xi tribes in the north of Youzhou, Goguryeo and Baekje in the east, Liu Wuzhou in the west, Li Tang are all tigers and wolves, and my lord has the help of Xi, with the strength of Youzhou's elite soldiers, he drew his sword and rose up with the Turks, fought Khitan, but Goguryeo, and Li Tang competed for power in Hedong, and built a business in a hundred battles. If the elite soldiers are strong and the generals defend it, how can they have the spare strength to fight for the world in the south. ”
Ling Yun said: "Ji Zhen, you talk about it, I haven't said why Youzhou won't plot against my Hebei land." ”
Ji Chuan said with a smile: "As we all know, my Youzhou and Li Tang are enemies, and once my lord raised an army of 60,000 to attack Hedong, although he took Taiyuan, but he did not get all the success. Li Tang is not extinguished, how can I sleep in Youzhou one day. Ling Saijiu is right, the princes say that there is no basis, only the benefits are good, and they can be perfect forever. If King Xia wants to help Li Tang seize the world, then please kill a certain person first and immediately prepare for war. ”、
Dou Jiande smiled slightly and asked, "Dare to ask Ling Xijiu, dare to ask how the characters in Youzhou are today?" ”
Ji Chuan smiled and said: "My Youzhou characters are prosperous, Wen Dalin can be compared to Xiao He's talent, Wang Junkuo has the courage of a tyrant, Xu Mao Gongkan and Jiang Shang's conspiracy, Li Yuanjun's account is a nine-rate and three-sect, out of its kind, the best of the best, can not be remembered, how can it be counted." ”
Dou Jiande laughed and asked: "Then under Li Yuanjun's account, it seems that Gu is the generation of Xiao He's overlord, how many people are like the tongue of the public?" ”
Ji Chuan said: "If Sichuan is not talented, the amount of buckets in the car cannot be counted." Ji Chuan is not talented, and he does not dare to compare himself with Su Qin and Zhang Yi, but he has the heart of Tian Heng. ”
Seeing that Ji Chuan's words were appropriate, Dou Jiande took a deep breath and said, "I already know what Ji Chuan said, please rest for the time being." ”
Ji Chuan strode back.
Dou Jiande looked at the generals and asked, "What do you think?" ”
The generals were silent. Dou Jiande shouted: "Ladies and gentlemen, you talk eloquently on weekdays, but don't you speak at this time?" ”
General Liu Heimin said in the first words: "There is some truth in what Ji Ji said, in terms of troops, our Xia army is better than the Youzhou army, if our army takes Youzhou, there are Turks in the north, Goguryeo in the east, and Li Tang in the west, but how to defend it, it is better to stay as a barrier, to resist the Turks, Goguryeo, and then discuss after going east to collect Shandong and go south to capture Luoyang." ”
Dou Jiande looked at Zhang Xuansu, this theory had always been his opinion before, thinking that Youzhou should not be lightly cut.
"Zhang Aiqing, I want to hear what you mean?"
Zhang Xuansu said: "At the beginning, our army sent troops to attack Youzhou, because Liu Wuzhou was the external response, Lu Ziqian was the internal aid, and Luo Cheng was the mouthful, and our army was far stronger than Youzhou, so I thought it was a battle." Take the risk of Yanyun to the whole of Hebei. ”
"But right now, Liu Wuzhou, Lu Ziqian, and Luo Cheng are all dead, our army has become a lone army, and in the battle of crossing the river, the Youzhou army dares to die and endure the war, our army has suffered a small setback, and it is really unwise to continue to fight.
Dou Jiande looked at the ministers and asked, "Do you have any other opinions?" ”
Song Zhengben and other courtiers who fought before were silent.
Dou Jiande stood up and said, "I decided to send someone to cross the river to negotiate peace with the Youzhou army, and he will eventually make a comeback." ”
"No."
"Ling Aiqing, you can go for me."
Ling Jing got Dou Jiande to personally order it, and promised it at the moment.
In the afternoon of the same day, Zhang Xuansu and Ji Chuan crossed the river by boat.
Before arriving at the gate, Ling Jingdan saw the gongs and drums sounding in unison, and the sergeant greeted him, and couldn't help but be slightly proud.
"Youzhou Governor Shi Wen Yanbo, here to wait for Brother Ling."
Hearing that it was Wen Yanbo, who lived under Li Chongjiu in Youzhou, and personally came to greet him outside the gate, Ling Jing smiled and said, "It's easy to say, it's easy to say." ”
There is a bit of arrogance in the speech.
At that moment, Wen Yanbo led Ling Jing into another tent, and Ji Chuan first went to the big tent to tell Li Chongjiu.
Li Chongjiu listened word for word, and said: "Dou Jiande didn't ask you about the peace conditions, but asked me about the customs and characters of Youzhou, which obviously meant to take Youzhou again and make a comeback." ”
Ji Chuan said: "Qiqi Shanggu Gong, this peace, I see Dou Jiande, this person, is a natural leader, and regards the general as a sibling, so the general of the Xia army, everyone is willing to die for him." This person is a hero in the world, if he fights with him, he can't win in a fight, or deal with him with peace, so as not to be troubled in the future. ”
Li Chongjiu smiled and said, "Ji has worked hard, and he ordered to go to a banquet to entertain the envoys of the Xia army." ”
Li Chongjiu was now holding a banquet in the tent, and his subordinates accompanied him.
Ling Jing saw that Li Chongjiu treated him very well, held his sword and entered it proudly, and sat on the Jindun next to Li Chongjiu.
Li Chongjiu raised his glass in his hand and said: "Although I have not met King Xia, I have been friends for a long time. I have always admired King Xia, and now the two families can form an alliance and turn hostility into friendship, which is really a blessing for the two families. There is a Lao Ling sacrificial wine to facilitate this. ”
Ling Jing laughed, raised his glass and drank it at the moment, and said with a smile: "Shanggu Gong, you're polite." ”
At that moment, Li Chongjiu introduced the generals under his command to Zhang Xuansu one by one, and all the generals toasted to Ling, Ling Jing was half drunk, and said: "Shanggu Gong, if the two families are truce, Shanggu Gong, you beg my Xia King to withdraw his troops, what sincerity does Youzhou show?" ”
On the side, Ji Chuan smiled and said: "Retreating from the army is a matter for the two families to take their own interests, how can you say any sincerity?" ”
Ling Jingyan said: "I Youzhou 100,000 troops are dispatched, the soldiers, horses, money and grain are used, and the food can be piled up into a mountain in one day, Your Majesty neither wants you to cut the land, nor does you want you to accept the quality, just a small amount of money and grain, if your Youzhou army does not show some sincerity, please forgive me for being difficult to go back and explain to King Xia." ”
All the generals were furious when they heard this, and Wang Mahan said directly: "Damn, your Xia army invaded us, and I haven't asked you for an explanation, and the thief bird actually dared to ask us for compensation, and when I said it, I thought we had lost the battle." ”
Ling Jing smiled and said, "This general is serious, it's a big deal, I'll go back to King Xia directly, and the two armies will fight again." ”
"I'm afraid you're coming."
"Sit down!" Li Chongjiu shouted angrily, waved his hand to shut up Wang Mahan, and said to himself: "What Ling Sai Jiu said is not unreasonable, but it is not easy for our army to be self-sufficient in food and grass, and I also ask Ling Sai Jiu to turn around in the meantime, don't take too much." ”
"Envoy!"
"Dashuai!"
The generals spoke one after another.
Ling Jing heard Li Chongjiu say this, and immediately said in his heart, what Shanggu Gong, the champion Hou, when he heard that he attacked the Turks, he dared to assassinate Shi Bi in the 200,000 army, and he saw it today.
Ling Jing smiled slightly: "I will work hard in Xia Zi and speak for Shanggu Gong in front of King Xia, but your army must also show sincerity." Otherwise, my 100,000 army will return in vain, and King Xia will not have any steps down. ”
Li Chongjiu said: "As far as 100,000 stone military rations are concerned, it really can't be too much, I will use troops against Li Tang this winter, and the military rations must be less." ”
As soon as Ling Jing heard this, sure enough, Li Chongjiu and our Xia King were worried about the same, and they were both worried that Li Yuan's power was getting bigger and bigger, and he would be unfavorable to him in the future. Very good, if we really make peace with Youzhou, it will be greatly beneficial to us.
At that moment, Ling Jing said: "Just try your best." ”
Li Chongjiu laughed, raised his glass and said, "Thank you so much for the Ling sacrifice wine, please drink this cup to the fullest." ”
When the generals saw that the discussion and the matter were completed, they suddenly became angry, and they all stopped drinking their cups.
Only Ling Jing saw that the peace was completed, and he was overjoyed at the moment, and after raising a glass of booze, he returned to Dou Jiande's camp while drunk.
Dou Jiande waited for Ling Jing all night, and waited for Ling Jing to arrive at the camp.
Ling Jing reported the situation of this envoy to Dou Jiande in 1510, Dou Jiande was overjoyed when he heard it, and said: "Li Chongjiu really has the heart to take Hedong, very good, the two strong fight, our army can sit and reap the benefits of the fisherman, that is, Li Chongjiu, Li Yuan's two families will fight themselves, haha." ”
Ling Jingyan said: "Li Chongjiu also said that he would return the corpses of the fallen soldiers of our Xia Army, and build a good coffin for each general, especially General Wang. As for the 100,000 grains and grass, it is necessary to transfer grain from Yi County, and it must arrive within three days. ”
Dou Jiande nodded when he heard this, and said: "I feel his hospitality, Li Chongjiu really deserves to be a benevolent and righteous person." ”
Three days later, the Youzhou army camped.
Wen Yanbo, Ji Chuan reported to Li Chongjiu, Ji Chuan said: "Qi Shanggu Gong, after three days of delay, Wang Junkuo, Ying Hefu, and Yan Yelie finally led 20,000 grassland horsemen to Yi County. ”
Wen Yanbo said: "In addition, General Xu Shiji also led 5,000 men and horses to secretly arrive in Shanggu County and wait for the dispatch of Shanggu Gong. ”
After Li Chongjiu heard this, his eyes flashed cold, Huo Ran got up and said, "Very good, Dou Jiande's death is not far away." (To be continued.) )
