Qin Mengyao lightly solved the mistakes made by Li Guang, but it was not Li Guang's matter that made Wang Mang embarrassed.

Li Guang was good at killing civilians, but Wang Mang lost the reason for his innate occupation, and gave the Jixia School Palace a reason to intervene, making Wang Mang very passive, but as Qin Mengyao said, killing civilians by mistake is not an evil thing on the battlefield, and it is not intentional, but this time it involves the Jixia School Palace, which makes this matter important.

And to capture the Hanjiang City, Wang Mang is indeed embarrassed, now here in the Hanjiang City, Wang Mang has a total of about 250,000 troops under his command, and in a short period of time, he can transfer another 100,000 people from Hangu Pass, so that there are only more than 300,000 people, if you want more troops, then you have to requisition from the country, this matter Changsun Wuji has already done, but how much to requisition, now there is no follow-up.

If the attack continues in the direction of Hancheng, it will be a full-scale war between the two countries, and I am afraid that even another one million elite soldiers will not be enough, but the question is how can Jixia Xuegong give Daqin such an opportunity? Therefore, there is no point in talking about continuing the attack.

But if it is stationed in Hanjiang City, it does not make much sense, Wang Mang arrived at Hanjiang City, he has already checked the city defense of Hanjiang City, the city defense of Hanjiang City is not external and internal, the city wall is strong in the direction of Hangu Pass, and there is enough defensive ability, but in the direction of Hancheng, there is no decent defense at all, once the Korean army is attacking, if you want to hold Hanjiang City, you have to spend a lot of money.

As for the entire renovation of Hanjiang City and the reinforcement of the city defense, it is even more meaningless for Daqin, Hanjiang City is only more than 100 miles away from Hangu Pass, Hangu Pass is a natural danger, easy to defend and difficult to attack, Daqin has no need to build a new city in a hundred miles outside Hangu Pass, the cost of building a new city is enough to double the defense of Hangu Pass.

Therefore, leaving Hanjiang City is meaningless for Wang Mang.

It can be said that in Wang Mang's place, Hanjiang City is just chicken ribs, that is neither advancing nor retreating, as the so-called best defense is attacking, Wang Mang has no interest in continuing to waste time in Hanjiang City, nor is he interested in recruiting a large army to come to Hanjiang City to fight the Korean army, so he can only let out the wind and let South Korea negotiate peace.

Behind South Korea is the Jixia School Palace, the shelf is very large, Wang Mang here does not have a force that can match the Jixia School Palace, it just so happens that Cihang Jingzhai took the initiative to bump over, then it would be better to hand over this matter to Cihang Jingzhai.

"In short, I can return Hanjiang City to South Korea, but South Korea attacked my Hangu Pass for no reason this time, causing Wang Yi, the guard of Hangu Pass, to be poisoned and unconscious, and the soldiers guarding the pass were almost killed and injured, and the city defense of Hangu Pass was also very damaged. Wang Mang said: "Since the war is defeated, there must be no defeated, my requirements are not high, South Korea must have a high-level responsible for this incident, South Korea must compensate me 10 million taels of gold, at the same time, the 150,000 Korean troops who surrendered to me this time, their lovers will be sent to Qin State, and South Korea must not pursue the surrender of these people." ”

"Your Majesty, do you only need these conditions?" Qin Mengyao said.

"I am a very talkative person, naturally I know that the conditions are low, and I don't understand these affairs, I plan to hand over this matter to Cihang Jingzhai with full authority, except for those things I want, I authorize Cihang Jingzhai to represent me with full authority, and everything that Cihang Jingzhai talks about, I only need five layers. Wang Mang looked at Qin Mengyao with a smile and said, "Of course, in order to thank the Holy Maiden Mengyao for her support to the cause of Great Qin, I personally took out a layer of harvest and gave it to the Holy Maiden. ”

Qin Mengyao's breath stagnated, and without saying a word, she nodded directly and said, "Your Majesty, rest assured, this matter will be handed over to Mengyao to be responsible." ”

Since ancient times, wealth has touched people's hearts, although Qin Mengyao is a saint, but in fact, she doesn't have much money, and the harvest other than what Wang Mang asks for is a huge amount of money.

Since the ancient national war compensation, that is not a minority, Qin Mengyao believed that he would return the news to the elders of the sect, and the elders would only agree immediately.

After Qin Mengyao left, Shangguan Wan'er's figure turned out from behind, looked at Wang Mang and said with a smile: "Your Majesty is really smart, you actually handed over this kind of thing to Cihang Jingzhai, Cihang Jingzhai thought that he had benefited, but he didn't know that he had fallen into His Majesty's trap from beginning to end." ”

Wang Mang smiled and said: "If they are not greedy, they will naturally not fall into my trap, not to mention that this matter is not unprofitable for them, if it is not for me to take Jiji to the school palace, I will not give this kind of thing to Cihang Jingzhai in vain anyway." ”

South Korea was defeated, hundreds of thousands of troops died in Hangu Pass, it can be said that South Korea is now the weakest time, if Wang Mang waves his army to Hancheng, I am afraid that South Korea's losses will be immeasurable, and the biggest loss will be the people's hearts.

It can be said that now what price Daqin offers, South Korea will accept it, of course Wang Mang knows the huge benefits, but the Jixia School Palace behind South Korea is Wang Mang's scruples, Wang Mang does not believe that the Jixia School Palace will let himself eat so many benefits so easily, and if he doesn't have the strength to take the benefits, he will gnaw.

At this time, Cihang Jingzhai bumped into it, Cihang Jingzhai was the same big force as Jixia Xuegong, and Cihang Jingzhai had enough confidence for Wang Mang to come enough to soothe the wounded soul of Daqin, so Wang Mang temporarily gave this benefit directly to Cihang Jingzhai.

And Qin Mengyao was greedy for the benefits sent by Wang Mang, so she didn't think about it at all, so she agreed, of course, even if Qin Mengyao thought about the key to it afterwards, for the sake of that layer of benefits, Qin Mengyao would still agree to it.

Shangguan Wan'er is so smart, she can see the joints clearly, and said with a smile: "Among the great forces in the world, Cihang Jingzhai seems to have no position, does not have deep contacts with any country, and seems to be a Buddhist system, but they are the most ambitious, otherwise they would not stir up the storm in the world, these women, for the sake of power, they can do anything, they are double-edged swords, Your Majesty has to be careful when they are used." ”

"I understand. Wang Mang said: "I never believed that Cihang Jingzhai would be so kind to help me, they have always asked for something, as long as I am useful to them, they will help me, and vice versa, I and Cihang Jingzhai are just using each other, the Queen Mother seems to know Cihang Jingzhai very well." ”

"The mourning family naturally understands. Shangguan Wan'er didn't explain, and said: "If there is no accident, with the intervention of Cihang Jingzhai, the battle of Hangu Pass will be over, and after the master of Cihang Jingzhai arrives in Hanjiang City tomorrow, the mourning family will return to Chang'an first." ”

"Cihang Jingzhai's master?" Wang Mang looked at Shangguan Wan'er.

Shangguan Wan'er said with a smile: "Cihang Jingzhai and those crazy women, Your Majesty promised them so many benefits, and before they get the benefits, Your Majesty will definitely protect them well." ”

After a pause, Shangguan Wan'er continued: "Taking advantage of this rare opportunity, Your Majesty can improve the strength of yourself and the people around you, and when the province needs it, Your Majesty's subordinates are always understaffed. ”

After speaking, Shangguan Wan'er floated away.
