……

December, the cold winter season.

It is rare to see goose feather snow on the land of South Australia, and it has not stopped for seven consecutive days.

It wasn't until the eighth day that the heavy snow stopped, and the white snow covered in silver, illuminating the earth like a snowy heavenly kingdom.

On this day, the Han army and the Jin army facing each other in Lucheng rarely appeared two horses, slowly moving closer to the center.

"Huh~~"

Yue Shaomu and Zhang Gui drank the war horse at the same time, tightened the battle robes on their bodies, and then jumped off the horse together.

"Zhang Gui, Old General Zhang? Today, when I saw it, I really got old and strong. ”

"You are the commander of the Han army, Yue Shaomu? I don't want to be so young, and sure enough, the hero is a teenager. ”

The two old enemies met for the first time in front of the battle, but they talked happily with each other, without the slightest hint of tension.

Yue Shaomu said: "The old general made an appointment to meet here a month ago, and if there is nothing to do in the army today, I will meet the old general." ”

Zhang Gui looked up at the sky and said with a smile: "You can really pick a good day, South Australia has not snowed for many years, I don't want it to fall for seven days in a row this year." ”

Yue Shaomu: "If the old general has anything, you might as well say it bluntly." ”

Zhang Gui said: "General Yue, the old man just wants to ask, why did your country raise this unrighteous army and invade my Dajin territory?"

The Central Plains has always regarded itself as a state of etiquette, but whenever it sends troops, it must also be famous, I wonder if General Yue can explain to me that your country is so prosperous, what does it mean?

The old man thinks that Dajin has nothing to be sorry for your country, and if he wants to raise an army to fight just because the envoy has been humiliated, it will be too child's play. ”

Yue Shaomu was silent for a long time, and then asked: "Old general, dare to ask, how does the monarch of your country treat the people?" ”

Zhang Gui: "My emperor single-handedly created the golden prosperous era, and the people under his rule lived and worked in peace and contentment, all of them were happy, and naturally they loved the people like children." ”

Yue Shaomu shook his head and said: "The old general, as the humerus of the Jin Kingdom, knows how the livelihood of the people of South Australia is, so why should he lie to me?"

If your country is really as you say, the people live and work in peace and contentment, why are all the cities behind me willing to vote? I wonder if the old general thought about this? ”

Zhang Gui said: "Of course, the emperor has shortcomings, but the flaws are not hidden, and most of the people still have big gold in their hearts." ”

Yue Shaomu said: "Really? The old general really thinks that my army of more than 10,000 people can progress to this point just by taking advantage of firearms?

Since the entry of my army, the occupied city has only been guarded by officers and soldiers, but the people in the city have sat on the wall and watched, preferring to watch the city fall rather than show blood.

Do you think that the surrender of the people of Lucheng is just an isolated scene? To tell the truth, our army can have today, and it is indispensable for the people everywhere to fund and guide the way.

It can be seen that your country's rule is unpopular, it is an unrighteous country, and my Majesty the Emperor of Han is ordered to save the common people and conquer the unrighteous country, isn't it justified? ”

Zhang Gui frowned, and didn't say anything, but he knew in his heart that what Yue Shaomu said was right.

Jin Guo has always used the expatriates as a tool to extract benefits, but he has never really shown favor to them, how can he be of the same mind as Jin Guo?

Not to mention that the Great Golden Law clearly stipulates that "those who kill the enemy with rods are guilty of rebellion and cannot be forgiven." ”

So Daikin has long lost the support of the people today, but these facts, the people in power who are high up on weekdays don't care and turn a blind eye.

But now the arrival of the Han army has shown this ugly scene in front of everyone's eyes, which made Zhang Gui suddenly feel a sense of despair in his heart.

After a long time, Zhang Gui said again: "However, even so, do you really think that you can shake the rule of Dajin with more than 10,000 soldiers and horses, do you really think that you can destroy my Dajin?" ”

Yue Shaomu shook his head: "Old general, you are wrong, I was ordered to just want to sign foreign trade cooperation terms with your country and the Han Dynasty, but the monarch of your country is conceited and regards new things like a flood of beasts.

Dare to ask if the new firearms sent back to China last time were assembled in the army? ”

Zhang Gui didn't say anything, and he didn't feel happy when he mentioned this.

For the arquebuses purchased last year, Zhang Gui proposed to assemble them with the army, so as to offset the gap with Sealand.

However, the conceited Honglin directly rejected Zhang Gui's proposal, saying that these were just tricks and tricks, and they couldn't be put on the stage, and the army still took the lead in the battle.

Even if those firearms may not be as good as the Han army, if they are copied in large quantities, they will not be so passively beaten when equipped with the whole army in the future.

Seeing that Zhang Gui was silent, Yue Shaomutan said in a tone: "Old general, if you really think about the future of your country, please retreat and return to the court.

Explain to your monarch not to fight anymore, you should hurry up and ask for peace, say something you don't like to hear, your country and my Han, regardless of the system or people's livelihood,

They are already seriously lagging behind, and the top priority at the moment should be to have a way out for the establishment of diplomatic relations with the DPRK at an early date. ”

Zhang Gui smiled bitterly: "Even if what you said is right, do you think there is a monarch in the world who learns from the enemy country?"

Your country invaded my territory and turned my great gold rivers and mountains upside down, and now you are making such remarks in a high-sounding manner, how do you think the emperor will feel when he hears these words? ”

Yue Shaomu sighed and said, "The old general is loyal and righteous, and Shaomu admires it, but I mention it again today, it is also what His Majesty has repeatedly told us, I don't know if you want to listen?" ”

"Listen up!"

Yue Shaomu took a deep breath and said: "The old general asked before why this dynasty was raising troops and mobilizing the people, in fact, no matter what the reason for this army is, it is just an excuse.

There are thousands of excuses, but there is only one truth, and that is that if you fall behind, you will be beaten. ”

When Zhang Gui heard this, he was immediately surprised, and said in a trembling voice: "Your emperor would actually say such words? ”

Yue Shaomu seemed to have expected Zhang Gui to have this expression, so he just nodded and said, "It's cruel, isn't it?" However, this is the ultimate contest between countries, and backwardness is not necessarily the original sin, but it must be the cause of being beaten.

If your country's military strength is the same as that of my Han Dynasty, even if it is only a little worse, will this dynasty dare to move its troops so vigorously and cross the ocean to attack your country? ”

Zhang Gui was speechless.

Yue Shaomu continued: "In fact, your country should be celebrated, because after this war, there will inevitably be a lot of cooperation between the two countries, and your country can take advantage of the wind of our Han science and technology to improve its own heritage and strength." ”

Zhang Gui couldn't bear it: "It's nonsense! Do you invade my territory, kill my people, and then keep saying that it is for our good? How can there be such a truth in the world?

Hugh wants to deceive the people here, and I have come to see you today for only one thing, either surrender and retreat, or wait for death on the spot. ”

Yue Shaomu smiled faintly: "I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint the old general, it's not that Yue looks down on the hundreds of thousands of troops behind you, but in front of the muskets and artillery of our Han army, it's really like a rabble, if the old general doesn't believe it, just bring the troops to attack, and the corpses of your army are destined to be everywhere under the city." ”

When Zhang Gui heard this, he immediately calmed down, and just snorted lightly: "Don't bluff, General Ben knows that your troops in Lucheng are insufficient, and there are only thousands of people when you are full.

When I go back, I will lead a large army to attack, and I will definitely be able to annihilate you in one fell swoop, so I will leave! ”

After speaking, Zhang Gui turned around and led the horse and walked away in the snow.
