Chapter 866: Domineering
Before Lee Yoon-ho returns.
Li Jinzhu and the important ministers present had a discussion about what to do. But everyone is at a loss, and now Li Yunzhong's incisive analysis makes them seem to see the sun.
"Queen Mother. I thought. It should wait for General Zhao Mancheng to return to Seoul. As long as you can keep it, you can keep it for as long as you can. Maybe Chu State and Meng Yuan can capture Liaodong? ”
"Or. Southern provinces and counties. Has anyone led an army to the king? If you still have a breath, you can't give up this great river and mountain. ”
An old minister saluted and admonished.
"But if you do. If the city is broken, it will be ugly. I think it is important now to ensure the safety of the king and the queen mother. The minister thought that the city should be guarded, and if possible, please surrender. ”
There are also old ministers who said.
"Are you going to give up the mountains and rivers?" The old minister who spoke first glared angrily.
"The mountains and rivers have all fallen, we have done everything we can, what is it to give up? Now is the time to secure the continuation of the family. ”
The old minister who spoke later also glared angrily.
The others also ended up one after another, splitting into two factions and quarreling constantly.
Wait for the transfer.
Please surrender according to the guard.
No one wants to go to Fusang barbarians, and no one wants to go to the deep mountains and old forests to fight guerrilla warfare. Li Jinzhu's beautiful face is full of paleness, and I feel pity.
She thought about it for a long time, but she didn't make a decision. I could only let the important minister go down and return to the dormitory by myself.
She sat in front of the dresser, looking at her pale face, regretting that it was like countless ants, gnawing at her heart.
If there is a regret medicine, she will definitely take it without hesitation.
It's okay, what are you doing with the Liaodong Tigers?
It's not that you don't report it, it's not time.
When the 50,000 troops crossed the Yalu River, how high-spirited and ambitious were they? Who would have thought that there would be today?
The country is ruined.
Lives are in danger.
At this time, one died. It can also leave a heroic image in the history books.
But she was not a strong woman, she was afraid of death.
I'm scared.
Li Jinzhu's delicate and smooth little hands were clasped tightly on her lower abdomen, and her delicate face was covered with fear.
In the end, it is the city that waits for the right time.
Or according to the city, please surrender.
Li Jinzhu quickly made a decision. But it wasn't made by her, but by Wu Nian.
Zhao Mancheng was blocked, and the Lanxi camp couldn't move. When Wu Nian led Wang Gui and Zhang Sheng's soldiers to set up camp in the north of the city.
Li Jinzhu had no other choice.
Inside the main hall of the royal palace.
Li Jinzhu sat on the throne and looked at the important ministers below. The number of people is getting smaller and smaller. Now those who remain are the loyal ministers of the loyal ministers.
Her makeup can be described as simple compared to usual. But even if she is a little powdery, she is also peerless.
"The mourners don't want to die. Who can represent the mourning family and go out of the city to negotiate with Wu Nian. The requirements of the mourning family are not high, and they only ask General Fu Han to give the mourning family thousands of acres of fertile land and guard his son to old age. ”
Li Jinzhu's tone was sad, as if she was a weak, pitiful and helpless ordinary woman. It forms a strong contrast with her majesty in the past.
Everyone present could not help but mourn.
Immediately, everyone looked at each other. Li Yunpet still stood up, clasped his fists at Li Jinzhu and saluted: "Go ahead." ”
"Favor Favor. The lives of the mourning mothers and sons are all on you. Li Jinzhu couldn't rest assured, his expression was sad, and his words were serious.
"The Queen Mother is relieved. The minister will do his best. Li Yunpet solemnly responded, turned around and left.
The rest of the people, together with Li Jinzhu, waited for news in the main hall.
Outside the city. The Wu Nian camp is still under construction.
Inside the big tent of the Chinese army. Wu Nian untied his armor, wore a purple gold python robe, sat on the handsome seat, and read the book of war. After hearing the news, he put down the military book, raised his hand and said, "Please come in." ”
"Yes." The soldier who came to report answered, turned around and went down.
Soon after. Zhang Zhen and Lu Yanxun led a team of personal soldiers and escorted Li Yunzhong into the tent.
"Foreign Minister Li Yunzhong, meet General Fuhan." Li Yunpet was quite calm, he didn't dare to look at Wu Nian, and bent down to salute.
Wu Nian looked at Li Yunpet unscrupulously and did not answer immediately. Instead, he said casually: "General." You're a great thing. Back then, in Guangyang Mansion, I was almost surrounded to death by you. Now how can I repay you? ”
Li Yunzhong's heart trembled, but he was still relatively calm, and bent down and said: "The foreign minister led troops to besiege the general, which is a great crime. If you want to kill or chop, obey the general's orders. Just ask the general to take pity on the small family of the foreign ministers and not kill them. ”
"The minister's family still has 500 acres of thin fields in Seoul, please ask the general to let them guard the thin fields and make a living."
Wu Nian looked at him and couldn't help but smile and nodded.
The generals of Goguryeo are nothing but Zhao Mancheng and Li Yunchong. People say that Li Yunpet is not as good as Zhao Mancheng, which is right.
People say that Li Yunzhong can occupy a high position by relying on the queen mother's relatives.
This is excessive.
There are many people in the Li family. The blood relationship between Li Yunpet and the Queen Mother is not very close. There are more people who are related to each other by blood.
Li Yunzhong was able to leapfrog so many close clansmen and leap to a high position.
Together with Zhao Mancheng, he maintained half of Goguryeo, but his ability was actually very good.
In a word. General Goguryeo, he only knows Zhao Mancheng and Li Yunchong. Of course, there are also those Goguryeo generals who died in battle, or committed suicide.
It's just dead people, but it doesn't mean much.
And now that Wu Nian has seen Li Yunpet with his own eyes, he is quite calm. A masterpiece for a while.
"Good. No matter what comes next. I promise you. Keep your family from dying, and you won't let them fall to the bottom. ”
Wu Nian nodded in agreement.
"Thank you, General, for your kindness." Li Yunpet took a breath, his face showed gratitude, and bowed down.
First, he wanted to live.
If you can't do it.
He wanted his family to survive. But he didn't want to see his wife and daughter become other people's domestic slaves, or even dust.
Now for the best.
Li Yun was a little ashamed. He obviously helped the Queen Mother fight for treatment, but he talked about his own affairs.
"General. This time, the foreign minister was on the order of the Queen Mother. Negotiate conditions with the general. Li Yunzhong said in a deep voice.
"There are no conditions. Let her open the gates and surrender at once. Otherwise, when I break through the city, I will behead their mother and son for public display. ”
Wu Nian sneered, domineering.
Li Yunpet was stunned for a moment, this is completely different from the attitude towards himself just now. He looked up at Wu Nian, and couldn't guess whether Wu Nian was really serious or threatening.
He took a deep breath, showed strength, and argued: "Please think twice, General." ”
"There are still 30,000 soldiers in the city, all of whom are willing to die for the Queen Mother. If the general storms Seoul, I am afraid that the general's soldiers will suffer heavy losses. The general's soldiers are all elites of a hundred battles. It's a pity to lose a single person. ”
"What's more, there are also Meng Yuan and Chu State Chen Bing on the border of Liaodong, eyeing Liaodong."
"If the general is under the city of Seoul, there will be too many casualties. Not good for the generals. ”
Wu Nian looked at him again, and said with an unpredictable expression: "With your attitude, aren't you afraid that I will withdraw the conditions just now?" ”
Li Yunzhong raised his head and said, "I am incompetent as a minister. failed to help the Kim family defend the country. It's already a sin that deserves death. Now he is ordered to send an envoy, and he does not dare to abolish the public for personal reasons. ”
Wu Nian stared at him for three seconds, then laughed again and said, "Okay, it's a man." ”
But then, he added, "Just." I still won't. ”
She immediately surrendered. Otherwise, I will storm the city. After the city is destroyed, I don't want the lives of their mothers and sons. The Jin family clan in the city, after the heroes and lords, were all killed. Chickens and dogs are not left. ”
Wu Nian's tone was cold and murderous.
Conditional surrender?
No conditions.
