Chapter 574: Three kneels and nine knocks

"Da Yannu really seeks peace?"

Yuan Tianzhi heard the report of his subordinates, and there was an obvious contempt on his face, as well as a rich sneer, they had already begun to prepare to take the Liaodong Army stationed in Nanping City to Beilucheng, and began to move, the other party was not ready to prepare for defense, but came to bring people to sue for peace?

"This Dayan Imperial Family, has it fallen to this point now? Ye Lu Chang, Ye Lu Qi and the others back then, although they were not the opponents of my Liaodong Army, they were all wise and prominent people, and they had never done such a groveling thing!"

Yuan Tianzhi was silent for a while, the look on his face became even more disdainful, and then he snorted coldly,

"Since the infighting between the north and the south of the courtyard back then, this Dayan Jurchen has been worse than a year for a year, coupled with the customs clearance and trading policies that have been used repeatedly in Chang'an City, it has made the entire Dayan Jurchen completely rotten from the inside out!"

"yes!"

One of the generals guarding Yuan Tianzhi's side smiled slightly, and there was also a trace of contempt on his face, and he snorted,

"If it was in the past, when Yeluqi and the others were still there, even if they couldn't beat the Dayan Jurchen, they would have brought the people from the North and South Courtyards to really have a head-on fight with our Liaodong Army. ”

"Up to now, the people in the Da Yan Jurchen royal family have completely lost the heroism of the past, they have been living in drunken dreams and death for too long, and even the last bit of dignity is completely gone. ”

"In this battle of Beilu City, the last general has been a little disappointed from now on!"

"Huh. ”

When Yuan Tianzhi heard the general's words, his face also showed contempt again, he shook his head and sighed,

"You're disappointed, aren't I disappointed? Not only disappointed, but even a little useless!"

"You said, back then, when the Liaodong Army and the Great Yan Jurchens were at war, at that time, there were not so many new weapons, and the Jurchens were not corrupted by the customs clearance and trading policies of the Great Wei Dynasty. ”

"Look at it now, under the corruption of that overseer's customs clearance policy, the Dayan Jurchen has been completely rotten to the bottom, even if there is no Liaodong Army, just come to a simple straggler, bring our equipment, you can solve the current Dayan Jurchen. ”

"Tell me, we, the Liaodong guards, and you generals, what's the use?"

"Over the years, I have been familiar with the art of war, and I have conducted countless drills on the Jurchen, Liaodong, and the situation in all aspects, as well as many war plans, etc., and now it seems that it is really ......."

"It's not as good as this paper for customs clearance transactions!"

When several generals around heard Yuan Tianzhi's words, there was a hint of helplessness on their faces, and there was even a bit of bitterness.

How could they not think like Yuan Tianzhi.

Over the years, in order to fight with the Dayan Nuzhen, their generals have also trained day and night, and they dare not be negligent or slack for a moment, but when the real war broke out, they also found that the efforts of the past few years have not played any role in this war.

What really played a key role and made Dayan Jurchen powerless was the factory in Chang'an City that specialized in developing and building weapons, as well as the customs clearance and trading plan arranged by those guys in Chang'an City three years ago.

Their Liaodong Army, at most, is just sitting on its harvest.

This is indeed a little depressed for these generals and generals, and they can't show their skills, as if they are picking up other people's teeth, this mood is really indescribably a little depressed.

"I don't want that!"

Yuan Tianzhi's gaze swept over the faces of many generals, took a deep breath, and then continued,

"I don't want to do this, I want to watch our Liaodong Army, from the front, dignified, defeat the army of the Great Yan Jurchen, level their north and south courtyards, and break through the new Yan City!"

"In this way, we can truly reflect the value of our Liaodong Army, and let our hard training for more than three years be displayed!"

"So I never wanted to accept their begging!"

Yuan Tianzhi's words came to this, and then he paused slightly for a moment, and the look on his face also became extremely sharp, his eyes were burning, and his voice was calm,

"I'm going to force them to do it, force them to fight to the death!"

"What do you think?"

Yuan Tianzhi's words fell, and the atmosphere around him became a little dead and depressed, and people were hesitating, and there was still a little hesitation.

Yuan Tianzhi's idea is actually in line with the thoughts of most generals, forcing the Dayan Jurchen to fight openly, so that the Liaodong Army will defeat them in a dignified manner, and the Liaodong Army will be able to boost its prestige!

However, they hesitate because of another thing.

Lives.

If the Dayan Jurchens really want to fight to the death, it will also bring a lot of pressure to the Liaodong Army, and although they are sure that they can win the battle, they will definitely lose a lot of soldiers during this period, and the blood will flow like a river.

What they hesitated about, with the lives and blood of so many soldiers, to exchange for the fame and glory of the Liaodong Army, and to exchange them for an upright battle, is it worth it?

Maybe it's worth it, maybe it's not!

Everyone and everyone has different thoughts in their hearts.

"General. ”

People were silent for a long time, and an elderly general with a thin figure and gray hair slowly came to Yuan Tianzhi's face, he turned over and dismounted, and then knelt down respectfully, and arched his hand,

"The old man feels, the lives of my Liaodong Army soldiers are more important than fame and fortune, and more important than our wishes, if we can solve the Dayan Jurchen in a simple way, why waste their lives in vain?"

"Just so that someone can say that the Liaodong Army is mighty?"

"The old man feels, this doesn't matter, we are generals, what we want is not fame and fortune, nor much glory, but the soldiers under our command, the loss is the least, and the benefits are maximized!"

"Therefore, the old man should negotiate with Hutuo and the others in a roundabout way, and pretend to accept their conditions and gifts to confuse them, while our Liaodong army should continue to go to Beilucheng!"

"When we have everything ready, we will immediately launch an attack on Beilu City, and then, when Beilu City is breached, we will kill these envoys who sued for peace!"

"In this way, we can use the easiest way to those North Lu City, and the losses of the soldiers will be very small. ”

"As for the upright battle you mentioned, the old man felt that if the Dayan Jurchen still had a little backbone, then after Beilucheng, they would no longer think about suing for peace, but would use the power of the North and South Courtyards to fight against our Liaodong Army. ”

"In this way, the above board battle we want should also be able to appear!"

"Please also think again, General. ”

After the old general finished speaking, he lowered his head, and the atmosphere around him became a little quieter, obviously, these many generals were thinking about the old general's words.

"General Zhao, please get up!"

Yuan Tianzhi heard the words of the old general, the expression on his face also became a little solemn, he took a deep breath, then turned over and dismounted, came to the old general, and respectfully helped him up.

He smiled and said,

"I understand your suggestion. ”

"The reason why I ask you is to listen to your opinions, to exchange the lives of soldiers for glory, in my heart, it is also a little unbearable, the so-called glory, the so-called military merits, are all too much to see, it is better to let our 300,000 soldiers of the Liaodong Army die less!"

"It can also make me have more families in the Great Wei Dynasty, and let me have more families in Liaodong, so that they will not fall apart!"

"So, Old General Zhao, don't worry, General Ben has already figured it out just now, since he can solve Beilu City in a simple way, then why do you want to let his subordinates go to death?"

"Let's go, let's go over and talk to this big Yan girl!"

"Thank you, General Yuan. ”

When General Zhao heard Yuan Tianzhi's words, the look on his face also became a little dignified, and he was a little grateful, he arched his hand slightly, and then said,

"General Yuan, rest assured, when those Beilu cities come to Japan and go to Xilongxinyan and other cities, the last general will definitely live up to expectations!"

"Haha, let's go!"

Yuan Tianzhi didn't care about the words of this old general Zhao, he smiled slightly, turned around and returned to his position, and then turned over and got on the horse, the black horse whip gently slapped the back of the war horse, Yuan Tianzhi laughed, and galloped towards Nanping City.

"Drive!"

"Drive!"

"Drive!"

Immediately behind Yuan Tianzhi was the group of generals of the Liaodong Army, everyone waved their whips, their horses galloped, and followed behind Yuan Tianzhi, very large, everyone's shadows seemed small between heaven and earth, and then disappeared in the direction of Nanping City.

In about half an hour, Yuan Tianzhi and the others had already returned to the place where Nanping City was temporarily used as a place to live to garrison the military mansion, and everyone passed through the Liaodong Army for a while, and returned to the main hall in front of it.

"Da Yannu really called for the national master, where has she been?"

Yuan Tianzhi asked with a smile while being served by his subordinates, changing out of his wartime armor and putting on simple civilian clothes.

"Returning to the general, the Hutuo Guozhang is still on the road with the mission to sue for peace, and it will arrive in the evening, and now the first to come to Nanping City is the envoy sent by the Hutuo Guozhang first. ”

A thin general stepped forward and respectfully arched his hand to Yuan Tianzhi, and then with a faint smile on his face, and a little contempt that could not be concealed, he said with a smile,

"General, you can't imagine what this envoy is doing here!"

"Oh?"

Yuan Tianzhi showed a faint smile on his face, then turned his head to look at the general and asked,

"What is his purpose?"

"General Hui. ”

The young general arched his hand slightly, and explained with some disdain,

"This envoy came in advance, it was arranged by the lord called Hutuo to come over, in this speech, there is only one purpose, that is, to invite General Yuan as much as possible, when this lord comes to Nanping City, you go over to greet him, so that he can be regarded as taking into account the face of this lord of the country. ”

"In this way, when this lord returns to Xinyan City in the future, he will be able to brag to those royal families and dignitaries!"

"Haha...... Haha......"

Yuan Tianzhi heard the explanation of this subordinate, a thick sneer flashed on his face, and there was a little contempt that could not be concealed, he opened his arms casually, and some of his subordinates tightened the tie around their waists, and then said with a smile,

"This big Yan Nuzhen, is there no one? Send such a cowardly soft egg over? That Yan Huang, that north and south courtyards, can't you find a decent person?"

"Maybe not!"

The young general shook his head slightly and said with a smile,

"Now, the entire Dayan Jurchen can only rely on those women. ”

"The general doesn't know, this time, this lord of the country, as well as Emperor Yan, brought us a very good gift, in addition to the countless thousand-year-old ginseng in this palace, there are also most of the royal family, the princess lady carefully cultivated by the high-ranking officials and nobles, said to bring marriage to the generals of our Liaodong Army!"

"Huh...... Use women to make peace, to bribe, to curry favor with our Liaodong Army?"

When Yuan Tianzhi heard these last two sentences, there was a faint hint of gloom on his face, as well as coldness, and even disdain that could not be concealed.

He took a deep breath and snorted in a dark voice,

"Originally, Lao Tzu wanted to go out to greet him and take care of the face of this Hutuo Guozhang, but when he heard that they used women to kiss him, Lao Tzu felt that there was no need!"

"You go back and tell the messenger who came in advance, just say that it was General Ben who said it, and if there is sincerity in the peace talks, then stop at the west gate of Nanping City, dismount, and walk to this Nanping City for General Ben. ”

Then at the west gate, bow down, and after kneeling three times and bowing nine times, the general will open the gate and invite them in. ”

"If this old thing can't do it, General Ben will send the Liaodong Army out of the city early tomorrow morning, and then directly attack Beilucheng and capture this city!"

"Give them another massacre like Nanping City!"

"Yes!"

When the young general heard this, there was also a hint of coldness and gloom on his face, and he bowed his hand to Yuan Tianzhi respectfully, and then bent down and withdrew from the hall.

"Damn, what kind of bullshit countryman, Hutuo, in front of my Liaodong Army, it's just a dog wagging its tail and begging for mercy, just rely on you, a group of groveling people who rely on women to sue for peace, and it seems to be greeted by my Yuan Tianzhi?"

"Wishful thinking!"

Yuan Tianzhi watched the general go away, the look on his face was still a little dignified, and he was cold, he took a deep breath, and scolded himself angrily.

"Lao Tzu will definitely entertain you well!"

At the same moment, the young general had already conveyed Yuan Tianzhi's words almost intact to the messenger who had been sent in advance, and the messenger was extremely pale and in a trance, and left Nanping City.

Then he rode his fast horse and galloped in the direction where Huto Guozhang was.

He's going to have to get the news back to him......

Three kneels and nine knocks?

Will you accept it?
