Chapter 280: Take the initiative to negotiate peace
Along with the letter, there was another news, Dayong sent an envoy to negotiate peace with the Qianjun. The term "peace" is usually used in the opinion of the country, and it has never been seen that the head of a country should talk to the rebels. But now Dayong can't wait to come to negotiate peace, which shows that he really can't hold on.
Lan Jing'an sneered, she thought that he still had backbone, and at the critical moment, it was not enough, but it insulted the reputation of his Yuwen clan.
Zhang Xun saw Lan Jing'an's gaze paused on the page of peace and said to her: "This matter of peace is not the idea of Emperor Kang of Dayongyan, I heard that the prime minister and others heard that we were brave, and united with everyone in the Dayong Dynasty to force Yuwen Moyuan to make this will. ”
"The person in charge of negotiating peace, I guess you also know, is Xue Chengye, the commander of Dayong's Langzhong. This person is really interesting, people haven't come yet, first send someone to praise us, praise us what: people are like tigers, horses are like dragons, up the mountain like apes, into the water like otters, its momentum is like Mount Tai. It is estimated that if Yuwen Moyuan listens to this, he will not be able to get up in one breath. ”
Lan Jing'an is certainly not unfamiliar with Xue Chengye's name, although she has not seen this sleek Lang Zhongling a few times in Yonghua City, but his baby daughter is her former close friend Xue Liangyu. It's just that time has changed, and she has long since cut off contact with Xue Liangyu, and when she looks at Xue Chengye again, she will only consider it from the perspective of political affairs, without any personal feelings.
Lan Jing'an objectively commented: "Xue Chengye picked a good time to negotiate peace. It is currently the depths of winter, and if the two armies continue to fight, it will hurt the peace. A few years ago, there was no way to do it, but now it is estimated that the marshal will give Xue Chengye a step down, agree to take a temporary recuperation, and wait until the spring ploughing is over, and then fight again. However, it is absolutely impossible for Dayong to want the marshal to stop there. ”
Zhang Xun nodded, deeply convinced. Although he was a civil servant, he knew that most of the marches and battles were after the autumn harvest, and it was only one season, which was in line with the time of day. But in such a war for many years, where can you still manage the time, it is natural that the months and months will not stop, and the seasons will fight each other.
However, it has been nearly four years since the marshal started the army, and the initial weakness and urgency were urgent, and the pace naturally could not be stopped. But now the situation in Qianyong has basically reversed, as long as Xianbei withdraws his troops, Dayong is basically hopeless. Therefore, the situation faced by the cadres and troops is also very different from that of previous years.
Since Jizhou, Yanzhou, and Yuzhou are all plains and are the main grain producing areas, and now that most of these three places have been obtained by the cadres and troops, it is estimated that the marshal will naturally consider the long term and give the local soldiers and civilians a chance to breathe.
Lan Jingan asked Zhang Xun again: "Has the location of the peace talks been decided?" Who will the marshal send? Zhang Xun replied in a low voice: "General Yuan said that he was in Yuzhou, but the details have not been decided." ”
Lan Jing'an nodded, and talked about his going north to Xiangyang: "Teacher, it's already fifteen today. I plan to take Biluan and Su Mei to Xiangyang early the next morning. As you know, Su Mei is General Pang's sister, and the twenty-sixth day of the lunar month is General Pang's birth sacrifice, and I want to accompany her over and toast General Pang with a glass of water and wine. ”
Zhang Xun sighed, how fast these days have passed, and it has been almost two years since the defense of Xiangyang in an instant. The young man who followed Lu Min and Lan Jing'an to shine at the beginning, when he thought about it now, his face was slightly blurred, and he was embarrassed to think about him.
Zhang Xun said: "Do you want the old man to go with you?" ”
Lan Jing'an shook his head: "Not to mention that you are going to sit in Jiangling, I am estimated to be there for the New Year, and it is not good for you to miss the New Year's dinner with your family." Just wait for the next year, and I will come to your door to greet you again. ”
Zhang Xun came over mainly to deliver the Yanzhou war report, and after the big thing was over, he talked about the small thing again: "If you go this time, will those Xia people also go?" ”
Speaking of this, Lan Jing'an was upset. Although Lao Du and the others were good to Feng Shen and the others, they had different positions, and she naturally hoped that these people would be as far away from her and her people as possible. But no matter how much she hated them, Lan Jing'an could only say helplessly: "Let them go." Anyway, this time it's just to worship General Pang, and if you don't let them go, you might cause something. ”
Zhang Xun nodded, very sympathetic to her. He also opened his mouth to say something about the arrangements for the displaced people in the Dian Kingdom, but somehow went around and went around to the war in the Dian Kingdom.
Zhang Xun didn't know about Lan Jing'an and Xie Weining, and praised Xie Weining unceremoniously: "Qingtian's vision is really good, this Xia Jiuhuang Prince is really outstanding." However, after more than half a year's effort, the Dian Kingdom was not only basically flat, but it seemed that it was going to Jiaozhi. I heard that I am even more good-looking, dedicated to national politics, so busy that I haven't even married the imperial concubine, which is really rare. ”
Lan Jing'an felt that it should be her who couldn't get up in one breath now, and she couldn't wait to say loudly to Zhang Xun: Master, you let this kid be deceived. If you know what tricks he has used to deal with Brother Qingyun, I'm afraid you will never say half a good word for him again.
Lan Jing'an was also happy and worried about Xie Weining's record. Thankfully, he's safe and sound. The worry is that it took him too short a time to take the Dian Kingdom. At his speed, if he doesn't attack Jiaozhi, counting the final work, but there are two or three months to completely calm the southwest. And he had already made it clear in the letter that after he calmed down the southwest, he would come to Gangneung to find her, how could this not make her afraid!
When he came, if the Qianjun had not been able to attack Sili, or the Northwest Army had not been able to return to Liangzhou, she would have to face a choice: either deceive his feelings and drag him down; Either at the expense of the Northwest, break with him. Either of these two methods was unacceptable to her, and the latter was even more unbearable than she could bear.
Now, Lan Jing'an secretly hates Xie Weining's talent. I just hope he's stupid. No matter how Lan Jing An's heart turned around a thousand times, he still listened to Zhang Xun continue to praise this foreign prince with a smile on his face.
When Zhang Xun said that she was tired and took a breath, she said coquettishly: "Master, you praise others." Why don't you boast about me? Zhang Xun touched his beard and said with a smile: "The apprentice is naturally powerful, just look at the furnishings in this hall." Fortunately, you have to go north for a few days, so that the old man can go back to replenish the stock. ”
Lan Jing'an also grinned. She is now making great progress in chess, as long as she works hard, she and Guo Qingtian can basically win and lose each other, and naturally slowly win back the things she lost to Zhang Xun one by one.
After sending Zhang Xun away, Lan Jing'an closed the door, lay down on his bed shapelessly, and whispered to Biluan: "Why do you say Xie Weining is so powerful?" Xie Chengxian tossed back and forth in the southwest for more than a year, except for trapping himself in, he didn't get any benefits. It's good that he took over less than two years ago, and the entire southwest has been flattened, which is really sad. ”
Bi Luan only thought that she was confused because of emotional problems, and couldn't help but persuade her: "Girl, how can he be smart?" A man who is too smart is unreliable, and it is better to know the roots like a marshal. ”
