Chapter 373: Contradictions Breed

Lin Haotian asked the envoy of the Yan Kingdom to enter the city, but he did not immediately invite him into the council hall, he was thinking about whether it was necessary for him to meet the other party.

At this time, Chu Lianyu came out and said to Lin Haotian: "My lord, Yanguo has always valued etiquette and integrity, if it is really invited by Ren Tianxing, he will not secretly make ghosts if he wants to come, I am afraid that I am only afraid of ...... You Jun pretended to let go in the name of letting go and tricked the adults out of the city. ”

You Guo and Yan Guo are completely different, barbaric, cunning and ferocious, capricious, profit-seeking, and have no credibility at all, if You Jun pretends to be in the name of Ren Tianxing, Lin Haotian believes it is true, and the consequences will be unimaginable.

Lin Haotian rolled his eyes and asked, "Lian Yu, you said that if the envoy was really sent by Ren Tianxing, what would he talk to me about?"

Chu Lianyu thought about it seriously for a while and said, "It's nothing more than two points, one is to persuade surrender, and the other is to negotiate peace. ”

"Oh?" Lin Haotian's eyes lit up, his side had just won a big victory in the Red Country, and joined forces with the Red Army to repel the 200,000 You Yan reinforcements, and now his side has gradually reversed the situation between the enemy and us, it is unlikely that Ren Tianxing wants to persuade him to surrender, and he will not be so self-righteous, in this way, Ren Tianxing wants to negotiate peace with himself?

The temptation of negotiation and peace is too great for Lin Haotian. After this period of fierce fighting, the Jin country has been tossed and wounded, especially the army, heavy losses, casualties have exceeded hundreds of thousands, can be called a great injury, if the fight continues, I am afraid that it will be difficult for the Jin country to recover in a few decades, if you can truce, so that you can get a respite, it will be better.

He looked at Chu Lianyu with bright eyes, and asked, "If the envoy is really sent by Ren Tianxing, then he must have come to invite me out of the city to negotiate peace?"

Chu Lianyu nodded and responded: "It is unlikely to persuade you to surrender, but it is very likely to negotiate peace, and the key question is...... We don't know if this envoy is from the Yan country or the You country. ”

Lin Haotian pondered for a moment. Looking around, he asked, "Is there anyone who is more familiar with the Yan Country and the Yan people?"

Everyone looked at each other, no one spoke, and after a pause, Lin Haotian's protector Tong Lei arched his hand and said, "My lord, the last general has been to Yanguo. I also have some understanding of the situation in Yanguo. ”

Lin Haotian looked at Tong Lei beside him, nodded with a smile, and then raised his head and said to the guards at the door: "Let the envoy You Yan come in!"

It didn't take long for the envoy of the Yan Kingdom to walk in from outside.

The envoy of Yanguo is a middle-aged man in his forties, with a white face and a short beard, and a dignified appearance, don't look at his attitude towards Jin Bing and Jin Jiang is very arrogant, but he is still respectful in front of Lin Haotian, the commander of the first army.

Without the guards around him to stop him, he walked to a place five meters away from Lin Haotian and automatically stood still. Then he lifted his shirt, respectfully knelt down and kowtowed to Lin Haotian, and gave a big salute in the army, "Under Yu Yang, see General Lin." ”

Lin Haotian looked Yu Yang up and down for a while, and Fang said with a smile: "Lord Yu, please get up!"

"General Xie!" Yu Yang replied and kowtowed again. Then he stood up and bowed his head.

The surrounding golden generals nodded secretly. It only looks like the etiquette of the person, not like a special person, but like a Yan person.

Lin Haotian asked: "When the two countries are at war, what do you have to do when Lord Yu comes to see Ben Shuai?"

Yu Yang replied: "The minister is on the order of my general, please ask General Lin to go out of the city to meet." ”

Lin Haotian looked up and smiled. said: "Ben Shuai and General Ren have no friendship, and inviting Ben Shuai to see him will not be a reminiscence." ”

Yu Yang Zhengse said: "The general wants to discuss peace with General Lin. ”

"Oh?" Sure enough, Lin Haotian narrowed his eyes, looked directly at Yu Yang, and asked, "Is this what General Ren meant?"

"That's right!" Yu Yang arched his hand and said, "I hope General Lin will be gracious!"

Lin Haotian smiled and did not speak again. At this time, Tong Lei, who was beside him, suddenly asked, "I don't know where Lord Yu's hometown is?"

Yu Yang was stunned for a moment, then turned his eyes to look at the person who was questioning, and saw that although the other party was not good-looking, he was wearing a general armor and standing next to Lin Haotian, thinking that his identity was unusual. He replied truthfully: "I am a native of Yifeng County, Tangming County, Yanguo. ”

Tong Lei sighed, rolled his eyes, and said, "I have really been to Yifeng County once, if I remember correctly, there is a twin mountains there." ”

Yu Yang's heart moved, he didn't think that there were still people in the Jin army who had been to his hometown, he nodded and responded: "What this general said is right, Twin Mountains are indeed in my Yifeng County, although it is not a famous place, but the scenery is picturesque. ”

Tong Lei said again: "Yang'a Lake under the mountain is also very beautiful. ”

Yu Yang didn't think about it, and said: "The general is mistaken, although Yang'a Lake is in Tangming County, it is not in Yifeng County, but in Dingyang County, and under the Twin Mountains is Zihe Lake. ”

Listening to Yu Yang's eloquent talk, like a few treasures, and being able to accurately correct mistakes, Tong Lei nodded secretly, it seems that this person is not fake. He didn't ask any more, turned his eyes to look at Lin Haotian, and quietly glanced at him.

Lin Haotian understood, raised his head, pondered for a moment, and said, "Okay! After Lord Yu goes back, tell your general that tomorrow morning, Ben Shuai will meet him at the Yingxiang Teahouse outside the city. ”

The Yingxiang Teahouse he said is located in the middle of the outer city of Jiangyang, not far from the inner city of Jiangyang and the camp of the You Yan coalition army, and it is also out of justice to choose the meeting place here.

Yu Yang was not very familiar with Jiangyang's environment, and he didn't know where the so-called Yingxiang Teahouse was located, so he asked: "I don't know where the teahouse General Lin said is ......located."

Lin Haotian said: "This commander will send someone to send you out of the city and point it to you." ”

"Thank you, General Lin!" Yu Yang thanked him.

The matter of Lin Haotian and Ren Tianxing's meeting was successfully determined, and the news was transmitted back to You Yan's camp, Ren Tianxing was naturally very happy, thinking that this was a rare opportunity, but You Jun's reaction was diametrically opposite, and it was not until now that they knew that Ren Tianxing had the intention of making peace with Jin Guo, and they also took action.

Chu Chen, the commander of the You Army, personally went to Ren Tianxing to question the matter.

Ren Tianxing knew that the two sides would negotiate peace, and You Jun would definitely oppose it, so he didn't notify You Jun in advance, and sure enough, seeing Chu Chen coming angrily, Ren Tianxing also understood his intention.

Ren Tianxing analyzed his own form to Chu Chen in detail, and in short, the conclusion was that if he continued to fight, his own side would be in danger of being annihilated.

Chu Chen couldn't listen to these at all, in his opinion, the most difficult Twin Peaks Pass in the Jin Kingdom had been successfully captured by his own side, what else could he not capture? As long as he could hold on, his side would win!

There was a fundamental difference in the opinions of these two commanders, one was the main peace, the other was the main battle, no one was willing to retreat, and in the end, it was Ren Tianxing's opinion that prevailed, not that he succeeded in convincing Chu Chen, but that his military rank was higher than Chu Chen, after all, he was the commander of the coalition army, and no matter how dissatisfied Chu Chen was with his decision, no matter how prejudiced he was, it would be useless.

The argument was fruitless, Chu Chen returned to his camp in a rage, and the generals also followed.

"General, Ren Tianxing has gone too far this time, and he didn't discuss such a big matter with Jin Guo in advance, he didn't even discuss it with us in advance, he was too blind to no one, and he didn't take us seriously. ”

"That's right! Our army has killed more enemy soldiers than the Yan army, and its military achievements are greater than those of the Yan army, and the soldiers are fighting desperately in front, but the Yan army is actually making ghosts in the back and deceiving people too much. ”

Listening to the complaints and complaints of the generals, the anger in Chu Chen's stomach became bigger and bigger, he had fought all his life, and he had fought countless big and small battles, but he had never been so guilty as now.

At this time, the strategist Guo Song stood up and spoke again, his eyes rolled wildly, and said, "General, I see...... Our army was calculated by the Yan people. ”

Chu Chen didn't quite understand what he meant, and asked puzzledly, "What did Mr. Guo Song say this?"

Guo Song said: "I suspect that Yan Guo and You Guo have long colluded, at least there is mutual communication between the two countries, and there has been a certain tacit understanding." ”

There have been You generals who have put forward such speculations before, but they have all been denied by Chu Chen, and now that Guo Song has put it forward again, Chu Chen naturally still doesn't believe it.

Zhilu said that he didn't believe such a thing, Guo Song explained quietly: "In the battle of Pingxiang, our side was defeated, and all the soldiers of our army were killed by the Jin army, but what about the Yan people? Second, to capture Songqiu, Ningding, and Taifeng, Ren Tianxing will not let us fight Songqiu and Taifeng, but let us fight Ningding, and in Ningding, there is an ambush of the Jin State Fourth Route Army, which launched an attack from the southeast, northwest, and northwest, resulting in the annihilation of our army's 50,000 brothers, these Jin troops can never be temporarily deployed, and the speed cannot be so fast, this must be a premeditated trap! Now, in the case of losing the battle in a row, Ren Tianxing naturally wants to negotiate peace with the Jin State, General, isn't it too coincidental? So I think that even if the Yan State did not collude with the Jin State, at least the two countries would have been in contact with each other for a long time. ”

These words made Chu Chen gasp. (To be continued......)
