Seeing that the other party had changed color, Zhuge Qingyun didn't see any nervousness, and looked directly at Lezhen and asked, "What did the patriarch say about this?" Do you feel that the benefits I have promised are too little? ”

"Of course there are few, now these cities north of Ludi and the Yellow River have long been beaten down by our warriors, and even have been here for many years, it is natural to say that this place has long become the rule of our three tribes in Saibei, and there is no need for your Han court to admit it!

"That is to say, you are just a verbal acknowledgment, at most a little silver and silk every year, in exchange for our promise not to go south, is this too satisfying?

"I even have to suspect that your emperor, Sun Ning, was a businessman before."

Lezhen continued to sneer and said what he thought, while Zhuge Qingyun frowned slightly: "Patriarch Lezhen, what you said seems to be reasonable, but in fact, the truth is not so.

"Although you have been entrenched in Hebei for many years, the eighteen cities in northern Xinjiang, which originally belonged to my Dayue, have been completely occupied by you, making it difficult for us to get involved. However, all this is just the appearance after all, after all, your three tribes in Saibei are not my Han race, even if you have been operating here for many years, I am afraid that you will not be able to really convince the people of Hebei Han.

"Have you ever thought about what kind of crisis you will face if one day, my Dayue Imperial Court will send an order to the Quartet with His Majesty's order to call on all the children of the Han family in Hebei to revolt and respond?

"We Han people have always had an old saying, called if the name is not right, it is not good, for the nobles, whether it is to occupy the land of Hebei, or to take the land of Lu, there has never been a justification. And now, the court is willing to make concessions and openly recognize your rule over the land of Hebei, can't this be called sincerity? ”

These words were really polite and courteous, neither humble nor arrogant, even Lezhen couldn't refute it, only looked at him thoughtfully, and only smiled lightly after a while: "It seems that you are quite prepared to come this time, and you are really able to speak well." ”

"Don't dare, I'm just talking about things in the future, and I ask the patriarch to think twice."

"Even so, your efforts and gains are still too different, and what we get is only some false names and a small amount of silver and cloth, even if I am willing to accept it, the people below are afraid that they will not be able to agree!" But Lezhen shook his head again, obviously dissatisfied with the bargaining chip that the other party had taken out.

Zhuge Qingyun sighed, as if he was a little annoyed. But in fact, he was very calm in his heart, because the other party's reaction was completely what he expected.

However, he still pretended to be embarrassed, and only after a while did he ask with difficulty: "Then according to your intentions, patriarch, if you want the nobles to strike this time, what kind of concessions do you want me to make?" ”

"Add two more points, first, that the cloth and silver you have promised us will be multiplied fivefold, and that I will see the first year's coins be transported across the Yellow River in two months. In addition, we should set up a field on the ferryhead on both sides of the Yellow River, so that the people of both sides can trade freely......"

He was not polite, and immediately said his own conditions, just this economic first, I heard Zhuge Qingyun frowning constantly, I have to say, his request is greedy enough.

But after the other party explained all the ideas about the two sides to open a field and the amount of coins they were asking for, he still nodded slowly: "Yes, I will try my best to persuade Your Majesty to meet these requirements after I go back." And what about the second one? ”

"The second is to let you let the Mengjin area out, and from now on, I will be in charge of the three tribes of Saibei. As long as these two points are met with the points you just mentioned, we can promise you that you will not use troops against the south in the future......"

Zhuge Qingyun's face changed suddenly, and everyone almost stood up: "What did you say?" Want Mengjin? That will never happen! ”

Mengjin is an important ferry south of the Yellow River, if this place really falls into the hands of the Guirong people, let alone crossing the Yellow River to recover the lost territory, even if you want to protect yourself by the river, it will become an extremely difficult thing to do, once the two sides turn their faces and start a war, it will be a situation of passive beating.

So don't talk about him Zhuge Qingyun, even if Sun Ning is here in person, it is impossible to accept such a condition of losing power and humiliating the country, and there will be endless troubles in the future.

But it was clear that he had no intention of making concessions on this matter, and stared at the other side with burning eyes: "This is the premise for our two sides to reach an armistice, without this article, there is no need to talk about anything else." ”

As he spoke, he sneered again, and said with a slight threat: "I'm not afraid to tell you the truth, even if you don't want to let Meng Jin out, I will also raise troops to fight over there, and you can't hold it."

"And as far as I know, the current situation of your Yue Dynasty is quite bad, whether it is Guo Han in Jinzhou or Li Wannian in Guanlong, it is not something you can easily deal with, if we cross the river in a big way, what will you do to defend the large area of the south bank of the Yellow River?

"With only one mere Mengjin, we can exchange our troops for immobility, so that you can deal with various imminent problems, which is already enough for you."

Under the aggressive momentum of Smoller, Zhuge Qingyun's face changed again and again, I don't know if it was anger or fear, his whole body was trembling slightly: "You guys are taking advantage of the fire to rob, it's really shameless!" ”

"Hahahaha...... In the eyes of you Han people in the Central Plains, aren't the foreigners on our northern grasslands all like robbers? Isn't it a matter of course for us to rob while the fire is hot? ”

These words made Zhuge Qingyun completely speechless, but his face was still full of entanglement: "Meng Jin...... It's too important, can you change to another place, other cities on the south bank of the Yellow River......"

"Then I want Luoyang City, are you willing to give it?"

In a word, he couldn't speak again, obviously, this is already the bottom line of Scorn Zhen.

Zhuge Qingyun's lips trembled again: "This, this matter is too big, it's not for me to have the final say, I need to go back and ask Your Majesty for advice...... You've got to give me time......"

"Yes, I'll give you half a month, and I'll give you an answer when the time comes." He agreed, and then added, threateningly: "By the way, don't try to use such a reason to delay, I want to create a certain amount of time for you to deal with Jinzhou and Guanlong."

"As long as I know here that you really have a plan to use troops against those two places, my steppe iron cavalry will cross the Yellow River and kill you without leaving a piece of armor behind! At that time, don't talk about Mengjin, even Luoyang, it will also be trampled under our feet. ”

"I understand, I will go back as soon as possible, and I will do as you say, Patriarch Mlzhen." Zhuge Qingyun agreed weakly, it seemed that it was because the errand was not completed, which made his whole person seem preoccupied.

Some people died, but not completely......
