I’m The King Chapter 775: : The sound of drums and horns is sharp (47)
For Zhengdong Army, Zhao Qi hates it. This is not only because the Zhengdong Army intervened in Daijun, and its intention to annex Daijun is obvious, but also because he still has a handle in the opponent's hands. , is one of the truths that Zhao Qi never wants the world to know. Just as Zhao Qi himself vigorously publicized that Zhao Mu died at the hands of Daijun and Zhengdong Army, Zhengdong Army also vigorously publicized that Zhao Qi harmed Zilan, and both sides took what they needed.
During this transaction, Zhao Qi thought that he had suffered a loss. Although he now took away Zhao Mu and moved a mountain that was pressing on his head, Daijun has become like this now, I can't escape the charge of losing my land and losing my teacher. Zhao Qi is now not afraid that Zhengdong Army will expose Zhao Muzhi's death, because they cannot get rid of Zilan's death, and it will be of no benefit to both parties to expose this layer of shame.
As long as there is a transaction for the first time, there is no need to worry about the second time. The crux of the problem is whether it is beneficial to both parties. So when He Tianju appeared in front of Zhao Qi, he was even more delighted, because he was keenly aware that the opportunity to get out of the quagmire of Daijun with dignity had finally come.
"It's time to end the war in Dai County." He Tianju faced Zhao Qi and said straight to the point.
"Have you finally realized that you have reached the end of the road?" Zhao Qi put on airs and said coldly: "If you want to negotiate a peace? Then you have to show sincerity!"
Looking at Zhao Qi's appearance, He Tian burst out laughing, "Master Zhao, you and I both know each other well, why bother to be so hypocritical. Now it's not that we want to negotiate a peace, but that we are willing to give Mr. Zhao your peace." A chance to end the war with dignity, after this village, there will be no such shop, you have to think about it carefully.”
Being ridiculed by He Tianju. Zhao Qi also couldn't help becoming angry from embarrassment, "I don't see Gao Yuan's kind heart."
"My family's governor is extremely benevolent to Mr. Zhao." He Tianju said slowly: "The battle of Daijun has been fought for more than a year. What did you get, Mr. Zhao? Is it the hatred of the people of Daijun? Or is it almost Nanzhang has become a piece of scorched earth? Xiling City is as stable as Mount Tai, Master Zhao, do you have half the strength to attack? Master Zhao is already in a state of chaos in the country, the king of Zhao is dissatisfied, his colleagues are jealous, and the Qin army is suppressing the situation. The people in the country are already full of dissatisfaction, isn't it right that Mr. Zhao wanted to end this war a long time ago? Now, we give you such a chance."
Zhao Qi looked at He Tianju viciously for a while. Cai said: "What does Gao Yuan want?"
"On the contrary, this time, the governor of my family doesn't want anything. It is enough for Mr. Zhao to withdraw from Dai Commandery. The end of the war against Dai Commandery will be beneficial to both of us." He Tianju said .
"The Dai County war lasted for nearly two years, costing countless state funds. How can I explain to the people of Dazhao when I withdraw like this?" Zhao Qi thought of this. My head felt a dull pain again.
"Of course we have already found the reason for you. Zhou Changshou, who is stationed in the whole city, intends to meddle in my land of Dayan Yuyang, and now he is surrounded by several of my troops, and he has nowhere to go. He still has more than 20,000 elite troops under his command Zhao Jun, how about you withdraw from Dai Commandery and get back the 20,000 Zhao Jun prisoners who surrendered?" He Tianju said.
Zhao Qi raised his eyebrows, "As far as I know, Zhou Changshou will never surrender. I don't know where the 20,000 prisoners of the Zhao army you mentioned come from?"
He Tian clapped his palms together, "Master Zhao really knows Zhou Changshou's temperament well. Our army besieged Zhou Changshou's department several times. If we wanted to wipe out this department, we would have done it long ago. My lord's friendship, I can't bear it. So I'm willing to exchange this with you for the peace of Daijun. Zhou Changshou wants to fight to the death, but the generals under him will definitely refuse to accompany him to die. You must have a way to solve it, Mr. Zhao As for this problem, as long as Zhou Changshou is resolved, the 20,000 Zhao soldiers will definitely be willing to surrender. After they surrender, we will exchange the 20,000 Zhao soldiers with you for withdrawing from Daijun. I think this way , Mr. Zhao, you are above and below, but it makes sense, right? At least in the army, you will get a lot of support, because you gave up the easy-to-get Daijun and are willing to exchange for captured soldiers. A good reputation doesn't come every year!"
When Zhao Qi heard this, his heart skipped a beat. The battle in Daijun has developed to the present, and it has long been impossible to fight. With the support of Zhengdong Army, Daijun didn't even use Feng Fayong's troops in Shannan County, so he fought a stalemate with himself, and It is impossible for the State of Zhao to send too many troops to Daijun. The pressure on the Qin army is increasing day by day in the direction of Hedong and Wei. It can relieve the pressure in all aspects, at least in the military, they will not blame themselves, and with the support of the military, what is the barking of other people?
"Our army withdrew from Dai County, are you going to formally annex Dai County? If that's the case, I still can't explain it. I can't bear the responsibility of losing the land." Zhao Qi began to bargain .
He Tianju laughed loudly: "Master Zhao, you can rest assured that although Daijun is a piece of land that I will conquer the East Mansion, it will not be chosen at this time, so you can let go of your worries."
"Our army can end the war against Dai County, but the occupied areas will not be returned to Dai County."
"Zhao Jun must withdraw from Nanzhang. As for Hefeng and Jianli, Mr. Zhao can keep it in his hands." He Tianju smiled and said: "Nanzhang is the gateway to Xiling City. Only when Mr. Zhao withdraws from Nanzhang can he show his strength." With sincerity, both of us can trade with confidence." Of course He Tianju will not give in on this issue. It hinders the overall situation, but Nanzhang must be taken back, and only when Nanzhang is taken back, can the Eastern Conquest Army safely transfer the cavalry led by the infantry to the Donghu battlefield. Next, Gao Yuan will do his best to get rid of Donghu and take the entire Liaodong into his hands. Only after this can he come back with peace of mind and shift his focus back to the Central Plains.
He Tianju quietly left Nanzhang with a satisfied mood. The two-year war in Dai County can finally come to an end. In the past two years, Zhengdong Mansion has infiltrated Dai County in all aspects. Up to now, the military and the civilian are within the two systems. Officials belonging to Zhengjiang Mansion have almost taken full power. When Zhao Jun withdrew from Daijun, it also represented that Daijun was officially separated from Zhao Guo.
Conspiring to replace the county, Zhengdong Mansion has gone through five years from planning to implementation, and finally harvesting the fruits. Now that the merits and virtues have finally been consummated, how can we not let him be elated?
Yuyang was besieged by the Zhou Changshou Department in Shuangshui Village. The mountains and rivers are exhausted, the food and grass in the army will be exhausted, Zhou Changshou launched several breakout operations, all of which failed one by one, and now he wants to fight but can't get it. Around him, the Yan army built the barracks like iron barrels, and they fought hard. It's the rhythm that wants to trap him alive.
In the entire Zhao Jun barracks, there was a misty cloud. In the past two days, the army has begun to kill mules, horses and other livestock to satisfy their hunger. And breaking out of the encirclement looks hopeless at all.
Zhou Changshou had already decided to make a desperate decision and summoned all the generals. Decided to send the final blow to the Kongde Ministry on the second day, eating persimmons and picking soft ones. In the final battle, picking up the Kongde Ministry is much better than facing the more powerful Zhengdong Army, even if it is more kills It is worthwhile to die a few Yan troops.
Zhao Jun took out the last food and grass, killed all the mules and horses that could be eaten, and ate a full meal. Falling asleep, Zhou Changshou set the attack time. At dawn, after a good night's sleep. It happened to be full of energy to launch a decisive impact on the enemy.
Zhou Changshou thought so, but not every general thought so.
In the middle of the night, Zhao Guang appeared outside Zhou Changshou's big tent in full armor, followed by several men in black.
"General Zhao, General Zhou has already fallen asleep." Outside the big tent, Zhou Changshou's personal guards greeted him.
"Did you fall asleep? Sleep well!" Zhao Guang showed a strange smile on his face, and before the guard noticed something was wrong, a man in black rushed up like lightning. With one hand around the guard's neck, the short knife held in the other hand was deeply embedded in his chest. The guard opened his eyes and looked at Zhao Guang in disbelief.
Zhao Guang's expression didn't change at all, and he didn't even look at the fallen guards, he lifted the curtain and entered the big tent.
The candles in the lamp were dimly lit, Zhou Changshou was wearing armor all over, lying on the bed and sleeping soundly, looking at his appearance, he was extremely peaceful. Zhao Guang pursed his mouth, and several men in black behind him rushed up and pushed Zhou Changshou down on the bed. Zhou Changshou is also a general with excellent martial arts skills, but those who attacked him were all masters of tiger and leopard cavalry. Several people worked together, where there was no room for him to struggle, he was firmly tied up.
"Zhao Guang, you dare to harm me?" With his eyes wide open, Zhou Changshou looked at Zhao Guang in front of him and roared angrily.
"General Zhou, you are the one who killed our tens of thousands of troops!" Zhao Guang also stared at him, "Tomorrow's attack will only send sheep like tigers. Do you want to bury these tens of thousands of men alive?"
"Do you want to be a prisoner of war if you don't die in battle? What's the difference?" Zhou Changshou roared.
"It's not the same!" Zhao Guang shook his head, and took out Zhao Qi's warrant from his arms, "Master Zhao has reached an agreement with Gao Yuan. He will exchange for us to go back from Gao Yuan on the condition that he withdraws from Dai County."
Zhou Changshou was stunned, staring at Zhao Guang, said: "You actually took refuge in Zhao Qi, Zhao Guang, don't forget, you are also a general of the Taiwei's direct line, Zhao Qi will not make it easy for you." /
Zhao Guang sighed leisurely: "It's always better than dying now. I still have to catch up with these tens of thousands of sons."
A man in black pulled out a knife, walked up to Zhao Guang, and presented the knife to him with both hands, "General Zhao, please, Your Excellency has orders, Zhou Changshou needs you to execute yourself!"
Zhao Guang took the knife and walked up to Zhou Changshou, "I'm sorry, General Zhou!" Amidst Zhou Changshou's hissing, the long knife was delivered, and it went straight into the opponent's chest.
Half an hour later, Zhao Guang's troops completely controlled the Chinese army, and immediately gathered their generals, and the generals of the Zhao army who rushed from the battalions to the big tent of the Chinese army saw the man sitting in the middle of the big tent Zhao Guang, Zhou Changshou's head placed on top of the big case, and Zhao Qi's warrant.
The nearly 20,000 Zhao troops in Yuyang surrendered to the East Army the next day.
Ten days later, the Battle of Daijun officially ended, and Zhao Jun withdrew from Daijun.
Five days later, nearly 20,000 Zhao troops who had been disarmed passed through the whole city and other places, and were sent back to Zhao.
Under the big tree at the head of Shuangshui Village, there was a small square table with a few simple dishes on it. The people sitting opposite the table were General Kong De of the Yan Army and the leader of the Zhengdong Army. lofty.
"Governor Gao, I offer you a toast~IndoMTL.com~ Turn your hands into clouds, turn your hands into rain, even the people of Zhao are playing with the applause, I admire you so much." Kong De raised his glass.
"General Kong is brave and good at fighting, and I have heard of him for a long time." Gao Yuan responded with a toast.
"Speaking of the two words of being good at fighting, I may be able to brag about myself in front of others, but in front of the governor, I won't make a fool of myself." Kongde shook his head and said: "Now that everything in the Central Plains has been decided, the governor will do it now." Are you going to Donghu?"
"Since we wiped out these barbarians and restored our prestige in Liaodong!" Gao Yuan smiled and said, "Actually, at the moment we are drinking, the battle to regain Liaodong has already begun."
Kong De drank the wine in his glass and stood up straight, "In this case, I wish the governor an early victory. It's getting late, and I should leave."
"Don't send it off, he will meet again someday!" Gao Yuan held up his wine glass and slapped him far away.
Kong De nodded, turned on his horse, and with the sound of hooves, he was gone.
"It's an interesting person!" Throwing the wine glass casually, Gao Yuan stood up, looked at Kong De's back, and couldn't help but smile. (to be continued)
