Ninety-eight Negotiation 2
……
After some arguing, the negotiations officially began.
The chief envoy of the Han army in the peace talks was Wei Ji, the chief envoy of the noble widow was the chief envoy of the concubine, and the deputy envoys were Mai Bu Ma Qi and Wu Buye.
Seidan and Saipan served as witnesses, especially Saipan, who was very interested in peace talks after receiving the promise of him as the new widow king by the Han army.
Wei Ji took a sip of tea, and then asked with a smile: "Then what sincerity do you have before this king puts forward the conditions?" You can also talk about where your bottom line is, and I'm so mentally prepared. ”
Anton said: "His Royal Highness King Huai, General Bai has already accepted the sincerity we sent before, and it stands to reason that the army should also be withdrawn, why did he go back on his word?" ”
Mai Bu Ma Qi also said: "Yes, please also ask His Royal Highness King Huai to give us an explanation." ”
Wei Ji chuckled when he heard this: "Prime Minister, I'm afraid I made a mistake, the money, food, and wealth you sent that day have been used as ransom, allowing you to redeem some people, strictly speaking, it can only be regarded as a transaction.
Also, what did General Bai promise you? As far as this king knows, you left directly after choosing the redeemed person, and you didn't talk about retreating or not retreating, how can you blame my Han army for not paying attention to faith? ”
These words made Tun speechless, and it was true that he left after giving the money and taking people, and he did not talk about a series of follow-up issues.
But in his impression, since he received the money and was willing to release the people, didn't it mean that he would withdraw from the army?
It seems that he still thinks about the problem too simply, this group of Seris is too cunning.
When Mai Bu Ma Qi heard this, he also looked at him angrily: "Prime Minister, what you did is really disappointing......
He pondered for a moment and said, "Your Royal Highness King Huai, the situation of our noble widow is also very difficult now, and it may not be able to meet your needs for a while, so please raise your hand and let my noble widow go." ”
Wei Ji: "Okay, then how much sincerity are you going to show?" ”
He said, "This...... It's up to you, Lord Wang, we don't know. ”
Wei Ji nodded: "Since that's the case, then the king said it." ”
The next moment, he took out a clause agreement that had been prepared for a long time, and said word by word: "Article 1, recognize the Yue Clan as an independent country, and from now on, you are not allowed to step into the Yue Clan's border without permission.
Article 2: Loyalty to the Han Dynasty and acceptance of the authority of the Western Regions Protectorate to manage the Western Regions shall not be subject to any objection.
Article 3: All towns, pastures, and manors within the territory of the noble widow must be unconditionally open to merchants and civilians who hold the Han Passage Order, and no additional customs duties shall be levied on them, and the tariff rate shall be drawn up by the Ministry of Household of the Great Han.
Fourth, all the people of our Han Dynasty must have the same rights and interests as the nobles in your country, and if anyone harms the people of my Han Dynasty, they must be severely punished!
Fifth, the Han has the right to garrison troops in the territory of the noble widow.
Sixth, all the land east of Turbo City is the territory of the Han Dynasty, and outsiders are not allowed to enter it without permission.
Article 7, the current king is abolished, and Saipan is replaced by the new king of the noble widowhood.
Eighth, compensate the Han for the military expenses of 35 million silver dollars, 80,000 cattle, and 200,000 sheep.
Ninth, the canonization of the noble widow king must be approved by the Han Dynasty before he can take office.
Tenth, from the date of the signing of the agreement, immediately release all the Yue clans who had been reduced to slaves in the territory of the noble widows and the civilians of the rest of the Western Regions.
That's all for the time being, and we'll make up for any deficiencies slowly. ”
He almost vomited a mouthful of blood on the table, and each of these clauses was to kill the noble widow's country.
Not to mention the others, the first one alone is afraid that it will be drowned by the people with spittle, and the noble widow is relying on the betrayal of the Yue clan as the focus of public opinion, so that the bottom is desperate to sell his life, which is also an important means to divert contradictions.
It's good now, once the Yueshi State is recognized as an independent state, then those actions in the past are all acts of aggression, which can make the Han army's expedition justifiable.
Is it still effectively loyal to the Han Dynasty and dispatched by the Western Regions Protectorate?
What is the essential difference between this and surrender?
However, the third and fourth articles are acceptable, but the fifth article is not good, and the Han army actually wants to garrison troops in the territory of the noble widow? It is equivalent to the conquest of the noble widow by the Han army in name and fact.
The sixth article was to hand over two-thirds of the land to the Han Dynasty, and once implemented, the noble widows would never be able to rise.
As for the latter articles, except for the one that was abolished, the rest are equally unacceptable.
So Mai Bu Ma Qi was the first to express his dissatisfaction: "Lord, this agreement has been signed, what is the difference between our noble widow and the destruction of the country?" No, I can't accept it. ”
Antun also said: "Yes, His Royal Highness King Huai, we really can't accept these terms. ”
Wei Ji smiled "hehe": "It's unacceptable, right?" It's good to say, my lord, send a few people back, it's a big deal that we will lead the troops to Natuoluo City in a few days and talk about it. ”
When a few people heard this, they were immediately frightened, and they hurriedly said: "His Royal Highness King Huai, if you have something to say, you have something to say, we can discuss it again, discuss it again." ”
Ma Qi also changed his face: "Yes, His Royal Highness King Huai, don't be angry, we can talk slowly, don't be in such a hurry." ”
Wei Ji watched them perform, and couldn't help sneering in his heart: "Come with this king?" You are afraid that you have not recognized your consciousness as a loser. ”
"Okay, then continue to talk, if there is anything unreasonable, you just have to talk about it, and see if this king can be accommodating."
He said: "The Yue clan and my noble widow are feuds, in the early years, the Yue clan was separated from the noble widow, and it is impossible for our noble widow subjects to recognize them like this.
There is also a second article, we can only privately acquiesce in the control of the Western Regions by the Han Dynasty, but we can't express it openly.
In the third and fourth articles, we can give special rights to the common people and merchants of the Han Dynasty, and we can also let them enjoy the same treatment as the nobles,
As for the fifth article, I'm sorry, this is the bottom line, I really can't let your country station troops in the territory of my widow,
There is also a sixth ......"
When Dinton said this, he found that Wei Ji had already gotten up and came to the windowsill, Saipan hurriedly ran to him and lit a cigarette for him, and the two of them smoked by themselves, ignoring Chatun's words.
After a long time, Wei Ji spit out a smoke ring, turned his head and chuckled, and said lightly: "It seems that there are not enough people to kill......"
This sentence came out of Wei Ji's mouth with a smile, but in the eyes of the three of them, it was like a demon.
Only then did he realize that the Han army had the absolute initiative in the war in front of him, and that he could sit here as a loser and negotiate peace, it was completely because the Han army gave him a lot of face.
Once he marched into the city, the city of Natuoluo would definitely suffer unprecedented destruction, and such a scene was absolutely undesirable for everyone to see.
Seidan rebuked angrily, "Tun, are you planning to drag your widow into a place of no return? ”
Hu Dun swallowed a mouthful of saliva, then lowered his head and said, "I'm sorry, Your Royal Highness Huaiwang, I was abrupt." ”
Wei Ji smiled and said: "It's okay, negotiating, naturally it is necessary for both parties to accept it, otherwise it will be a fart, don't be afraid, Prime Minister, continue to speak, say it boldly." ”
I scolded my mother angrily, and I still said a fart, do I dare to speak?
At this time, another sentence came from my ear: "If you don't say it, don't you want to give face to this king?" ”
His cheeks twitched slightly, and finally he trembled and said, "The noble widow admits that the Han Dynasty dominates the Western Regions, and also admits that the Yue Clan has officially become an independent kingdom.
The Han commoners and merchants enjoyed the same special rights as the nobles in the territory of the noble widows, and the country would do its best to ensure the safety of their lives and property.
As for the abolition, submission to the Han Dynasty, and the release of the Yue clan and the civilians of the Western Regions, there is no objection, but the garrison, the king needs to be canonized by the Han Dynasty, and the amount of compensation and territorial division of these four pieces,
Can His Royal Highness King Huai discuss again? ”
