Chapter 617: Surrender, Peace
Although Wang Yan was angry, he was helpless, there were still many people who were loyal to the abolished emperor and the Qin royal family, it was not so easy to clean, and blindly killing was not the best policy, so he could only try it slowly.
This spy is the female shopkeeper of the orchid wine shop captured by Zhao Chaozong during the purge of the capital on the day after the imperial city mutiny.
Pan Zihao heard Qin Peng say that she was arrested, so he sent a message to his cronies in the capital, rescued Hu Ji with Li Daitao's stiff strategy, and then put on a human skin mask, and impersonated the identity of a forbidden army with Hu blood in the Western Battalion, lurking in the army, looking for opportunities to create chaos. However, since Wang Yan implemented the joint sitting rule in the army, the precautions in the army were extremely strict, and she never found a chance to start, until the northern Xinjiang, seeing the Xuanwu army chasing and killing Qin Peng, she risked her life to make a move.
Because it was night, after she detonated two motor vehicles loaded with munitions, she got into the crowd and finally returned to Qin Peng's side smoothly.
Qin Peng was overjoyed.
However, without waiting for the two to catch up, Zhang Jinyan led the army to chase after him, and he kept chasing after him, until Qin Peng had no door to the sky and entered the ground seamlessly.
At the end of his rope, Qin Peng was discouraged.
On this day, he received domestic news: King Xuanwu infiltrated the capital of Anguo, killed several important ministers, and was chased and killed by the Anguo Imperial Forest Army, however, the King of Xuanwu was fake, and the real King Xuanwu lost his trace.
Qin Peng made a decision in an instant.
He remembered the historical records:
Qin Lin, the first emperor of Anguo, was also the first Qinglong King of Dajing, when the two countries were in full swing, he suddenly announced that he was suing for peace and was willing to submit to Dajing.
The ministers were incredulously opposed.
Because Angola was not defeated.
Qin Lin said to the ministers, if you continue to fight, Anguo may not lose, and Dajing will not win, it is the people of the two countries who will lose, as well as those soldiers who died on the battlefield, I can't use the blood of the people of the north to consume Dajing.
He said that only when he became an emperor would he understand the responsibility on his shoulders for the monarch. Those who do not care about the common people in the world are not qualified to be kings; I was lucky enough to sit on the dragon chair, but I couldn't sit steadily; He sat down for the time being, and he never sat for long.
When Qin Peng read this, he didn't think so, and always felt that the Green Dragon King was too forbearing; At present, he deeply appreciates the great benevolence and courage of his ancestors.
Without Emperor An and Empress An, he is like a young master who is in charge of the family business for the first time, trembling, walking on thin ice, not only caring about his father and mother, but also about the hundreds of thousands of soldiers trapped in Xuanwu Pass, and also about the people of Anguo.
He had never felt the responsibility of being a monarch so much as he did now.
Can Angola still withstand years of war?
If the enemy is mediocre, he still has a chance; However, whether it is Wang Yan, or Zhang Jinyan, or even Li Hanyao, they are all outstanding talents who are seen once in a century, plus King Xuanwu and King Vermilion Bird, and without the constraints of the narrow-minded Emperor Jiaxing, he really has no chance of winning, if he doesn't stop as soon as possible, I am afraid that the end will be miserable.
He wondered that he had not thought of the suffering of the people in the first place, and he was not a master who was inconsiderate of the people. He thought that his father and son were too confident at the beginning, as if this battle would definitely defeat Dajing and recover the Central Plains, which would be beneficial to the people and Anguo; Now that I'm defeated, my state of mind is completely different.
It was a good time of the year to March, but his soldiers were hungry and cold, and they were miserable; I don't know who blew the mustache, and the leisurely, desolate music sounded in my ears, as if crying.
It stands to reason that he should punish this person for disturbing the morale of the army, but he did not pursue it, because he knew that Hu Jiyin had not changed, and it had become his state of mind, the state of mind of the soldiers, and they had reached the end of their rope.
He thought of Xiang Yu, the overlord of Chu.
Coincidentally, he also has a "Yu Ji".
Although his "Yu Ji" has foreign blood, it is the name of the Han people, named Zhen Zhen, he is full of thoughts, and first asked Xie Yuhua.
"Zhen Zhen, Wang Yu scolded this king for raising troops and fighting recklessly, so he was defeated. You say, has this king really been punished by heaven? ”
"No, Your Highness. Victory and defeat are a common thing in soldiers. ”
"This king wants to make peace."
"Your Highness is far-sighted."
"Don't you think this king is cowardly?"
Hu Ji shook her head with tears in her eyes and said, "This time, that time." At that time, Dajing was prosperous on the surface, but it was actually precarious; Right now, Dajing seems to be chaotic, but it is broken and then standing. Wang Yan reused Xie Yaohui and other old ministers, and was willing to promote newcomers, and now Dajing Capital is more stable than when Emperor Jiaxing was in power. and Jiangnan Li Hanyao, who is not a simple woman. We want to recover the Central Plains, it's too difficult. ”
She tried her best to appease Qin Peng.
She fully supports Qin Peng.
Qin Peng, the eldest prince of Anguo, was so high-spirited before, but now her face is full of vicissitudes, but she will not look down on him because of this, but admires and respects him more, because he is now truly growing, with the great benevolence and righteousness of the monarch, thinking about the people and the society, instead of insisting on going his own way.
Qin Peng hugged her tightly, wanting to draw confidence from her. He said softly, "Those who know me, Zhen Zhenye." Others may not know about this king, but they will definitely scold this king for being cowardly and incompetent, and he will also scold him. Hasn't Taizu also been scolded? ”
Zhen Zhen bit her lip tightly, not daring to let the choking sound leak out, and waited to suppress the sadness before saying in a negotiated tone: "I'm afraid that Wang Yan will not agree." Although his parents were persecuted by Emperor Jiaxing, they died at the hands of An Guo. ”
Qin Peng affirmed: "He will agree." If he is a belligerent and murderous person, he will never spare the lives of hundreds of thousands of soldiers in Angola. Besides, the civil strife in Dajing has not yet subsided, and this king concludes that he is also in a hurry to withdraw from the northern frontier. After the peace is negotiated, he will be free to calm the civil strife, and we will be able to recuperate. This king is only worried about his father and mother, and the hatred of killing his father and mother is not the same, and he is afraid that he will not let it go......"
Strange, he felt that he knew Wang Yan very well, if the two were not opponents, they would definitely be good friends who cherished each other, but unfortunately, they were enemies, so he said it later, with a solemn expression.
However, there was no way back for him.
He said firmly: "It is best if peace can be negotiated; If he refuses to agree, hmph, although this king is unable to raise troops again, he still has the ability to send people to cause trouble for him. Didn't this king create a lot of trouble for Dajing before; Their Xuanwu King, this time infiltrated the capital of my Anguo and assassinated my important ministers of Anguo, and this king will too! ”
If you really want to be so unscrupulous, it will definitely cause chaos, like this war, until one side is defeated. No, the defeat cannot be ended, and the war can be fought again after a few years of recovery, and the peace can only be temporarily suspended.
However, he must save his life before he can negotiate peace, if he becomes a prisoner, the king will definitely kill him, what else to negotiate peace!
The next day, Qin Peng sent an envoy to see Zhang Jinyan and surrendered for peace, but he himself quietly escaped with Harabal and others and disappeared without a trace.
Zhang Jinyan breathed a sigh of relief when he received the surrender letter. He didn't want to chase anymore, chasing so far, the supplies couldn't keep up, and the soldiers were all sleepy, Qin Peng's request for peace was in the arms of Wang Yan - Wang Yan wanted to force Qin Peng to surrender and sue for peace - so he sent a letter to Wang Yan on the one hand, and sent people to count and receive prisoners.
Who knows, Qin Peng is gone.
Although it is regrettable, it is also expected - the two sides have been fighting for so many days, and he already knows that Qin Peng is a powerful person.
He agreed with the envoys that he would still return to the Xuanwu Pass for negotiations, so he took tens of thousands of prisoners back to the camp victoriously.
At this point, the war finally ended.
Let's talk about the Xuanwu military camp here.
When Li Hanyao learned the news of the peace conference, she had just returned from visiting the countryside.
Tian Tian has been in a coma, occasionally awake, and for a short time.
Li Hanyao told her: Huo Fei personally went to the snow mountain to help her pick snow lotus, and told her to raise it with peace of mind, and when Huo Fei came back and used snow lotus as medicine, her injuries would be healed.
Tian Tian listened and rejoiced.
Li Hanyao was face to face with her, said private words, and whispered: "General Huo took the initiative to collect medicine, I think I don't feel at ease to hand it over to my subordinates." ”
Tian Yuan blinked his dark eyes and asked in a thin, faint voice, "Really?" She couldn't believe it.
Li Hanyao glanced at her and said, "I can still lie to you!" ”
Tian Yuan smiled happily, a little shy, and said: "He looks cold, but in fact, he has the hottest heart, and he is a real hero." ”
