Chapter 227: The Intention of the Peace Talks
When Wang Qi arrived in Liao, he sharpened his knife and Huo Huo Xiang Jiannu.
Shenyang City, the four major political kings led by Dai Shan, also began to reformulate the strategy for the Ming Dynasty.
Although the battle of Shenyang City, Houjin won the battle, and returned with a great victory, capturing countless grain and straw, which is a solution to the urgent need for today's Houjin.
However, the high-level leaders led by Dai Shan were not carried away by the victory, nor did they start to imagine again that cutting Han soldiers was as easy as killing cattle and slaughtering pigs, plundering Han land and slaughtering people
In particular, after Dai Shan and others received the news of Wang Qi's arrival in Liao, a slightly strange atmosphere permeated the entire high-level of the Eight Banners, and the word Wang Qi, like a black cloud, pressed heavily on the Sky Mountain, and it did not disperse for a long time.
Shenyang City, Wang Khan's Palace, today's meeting of the Council and the King has been held for an hour and a half, but there is still no clear constitution for how to treat the Ming Dynasty and what attitude to take.
In recent years, the weather in Liaodong has become more and more strange, it has just entered October, but the temperature is already extremely low, and even this morning you can see the condensation and frost left on the flower clusters.
In the main hall of the council, the open fire dragon ball, the heavy curtain blocked the cold wind outside.
The eight banners of Jianzhou, the generals and nobles above the solid mountain are all there.
The four kings sat on it, and the rest of them stood below.
Dai Shan was dressed in a narrow cotton brocade jacket, leaning on the northerly position, with his eyes closed, he had been listening to everyone's discussions, if others came to see, he thought that the king of the council, who had mastered seventy percent of the strength of the Jianzhou Jurchens, had fallen asleep. But everyone in the hall knew that Dai Shan's jumping forehead was blue, indicating that the prince's mood was extremely irritable.
"I think that at the moment, my gold is in full swing, even if I can't continue to expand the territory, but it is still possible to maintain the existing situation, from Haizhou, to Liaoyang, to Shenyang City, Puhesuo, most of Liaodong is still in my hands, why because of the arrival of Wang Qi, I have to give up the land and results that have been in hand!" Jierharang seems to have the same fiery temper as Mang Gurtai, and he is the strongest subordinate of Dai Shan, and he has the highest combat power in his hands, so when discussing the withdrawal of troops from Liaoyang City today, this Prince Zheng immediately jumped to his feet, saying that he was unwilling to give away the results of the battle in vain.
"Just because he is Wang Qi!" Although Dolgon is not young and thin, but he is quite bold, Nurhachi once commented on his 'deep planning', and now in the face of his angry brother, he still looks at Zilharang with a calm face: "Brother, don't worry, and sit down." ”
Hearing the younger brother's words, Zilharang looked at Dolgon in a daze, then pursed his lips and sneered before sitting down again: "Fourteenth brother, when you grow up and have more cattle and sheep in your hands, you will understand what it means for me Jurchen to give up a heavy city." ”
"But now, the Ming Dynasty is powerful, and Wang Qi and his people are incapable of governing people, so avoid its edge and recuperate, isn't it?" Dolgon gave a look, and the maid on the side stepped forward to add tea to Zilharang: "Sixth brother, there may be something wrong with my brother's words, you can also listen to what the eldest brother means." ”
As Dorgon's words fell, everyone in the temple turned their heads to look at Daishan, who had been pretending to sleep in the top position.
This Prince Li, who is nearly forty years old and has been awarded the title of 'Guying Baturu', finally opened his eyes at this time.
In the main hall, everyone bowed their heads and did not dare to look directly.
"If Wang Khan is alive, if it is when my Jurchen is in his heyday, even if he Wang Qi is in person, he will throw away his armor and look south to die," Dai Shan pursed his lips tightly, and a pair of tiger eyes swept over everyone's faces: "But this time is different from the past. Wang Khan is not there, and my Jurchen is far from being comparable at that time, and the people's hearts are not aligned, and they all want to be stable. ”
Supporting himself with both hands, Dai Shan slowly got up: "It's okay to avoid the edge for the time being." ”
"So, do you want to retreat blindly?" Jierharang is not afraid of Dai Shan, but for the sake of overall stability, the two cooperate with each other: "That Wang Qi is not a person who can fill his stomach with three melons and two dates!" Give him Liaoyang City, he will want Shenyang City, retreat to Hetuala, he can't wait to slaughter my Longxing land! ”
"The last battle of Shenyang City, Xiong Tingbi's Northern Expedition, has exhausted the family of the Southern Ming, this king thinks that Wang Qi went to Liao, the main purpose is to stabilize the situation, not to fight against me, he Wang Qi is not a god, he can't conjure up a million silver, his Ming Dynasty soldiers are all masters who recognize money and do not recognize people." Dai Shan slowly paced through the hall with his hands behind his back.
"But I heard that Wang Qi recently put forward the slogan of cutting gold, which is very exciting in the Liaodong Army, and following behind Wang Qi, that appearance makes those remnants of the defeated generals puff up their chests proudly." Zilharang still spoke against it.
Click!
Dai Shan stopped, turned his head to look at his half-brother, and said solemnly: "Therefore, this king plans to go to Haizhou Wei in person and have a relationship with Wang Qi." ”
What?
Hiss!!
As soon as Dai Shan's words came out, the entire hall was full of discussions.
"Those who are in high positions must not be in danger!"
"Peace?"
"There has never been a precedent for our dynasty to take the initiative to negotiate peace with the southern dynasty!"
"At the beginning, Sibeile proposed a peace matter, but was reprimanded by Wang Khan, and now to talk about this matter, isn't it for the sake of the rebellion of the first king?"
"Silence!!"
Ji'er Harang suddenly got up, suppressed everyone's voices, and then looked at Dai Shan solemnly: "Did you really decide to make peace with the Southern Dynasty?" ”
"The overall situation is important," Dai Shan didn't say anything, just spit out four words lightly.
"Oh, Chief Minister," Zilharang sneered, and walked away from the table, far away, outside the palace gate, there was a cold voice from Jilharang: "Then you can go." ”
With Zilharang's departure, the atmosphere in the entire hall became a little depressing, and everyone lowered their heads and did not dare to speak.
Of course, some people are dissatisfied with Dai Shan's bow to Wang Qi, and some people don't want to continue fighting, and more people want to continue to observe the situation and see how determined Wang Qi is to fight gold!
After all, cowardice before a fight is really not the style of the Jurchens.
Taking a deep breath, his chest rose and fell, and it took a while to calm down, Dai Shanyin's face was slightly gloomy, and he glanced at everyone: "Do you have any opinions?" ”
"Lord Wang, I have a doubt," Wei Qi, the new Zhenglan Banner Gushan, spoke.
"Tell me about it," Dai Shan nodded.
"What if Wang Qi is unwilling to negotiate peace?" Wei Qi frowned and raised his own objections.
"Don't want to?" Dai Shan sneered: "It doesn't cost a single soldier, Liaoyang City is at his fingertips, what is he not willing to do?" Do you really think that he Wang Qi is 100% sure that he will win the battle against my Jurchen? ”
After speaking, Dai Shan narrowed his eyes and looked at the gloomy sky outside the hall: "Young man, don't be too arrogant!" ”
