"This is Yingshui!"
Yang Xuan got off his horse and walked to Yingshui.
The current is swift and mighty.
The pontoon bridge has been destroyed, and there is still some trouble in crossing the river.
"There is a section of the river with calm water downstream, but all the nearby boats have been scoured."
Nan He went to check the upstream and downstream.
"You can build a raft," Han Ji said.
None of this matters.
The biggest problem now is that Nan Zhou refuses to bow his head, so the Southern Expedition has to continue.
"The Zhou army has been spotted on the flanks. There are not many of them. They are sneaky like mice." The scout brought back a bad news.
Immediately Zhang Huan ordered the cavalry to attack in all directions.
Several batches of so-called Qin Wangjun were defeated.
"There will be more to follow." Zhou Zun said holding a booklet: "The population of the Southern Zhou Dynasty is large, and everything in this world is worthless if there is too much, and so is human life. Local officials can easily recruit a large army with the order of King Qin. "
"Those are common people." Yue Wang said.
"Many ants kill elephants." Zhou Zun has completely changed his view on the battle formation. "Nian is still Zhengshuo, and the people support him. Just a simple practice, those people can crush us to death with corpses."
These words reminded Yang Xuan of the great war in that world.
A farmer was requisitioned just after returning from farming.With one gun and a few bullets, he was driven onto the battlefield.Most were killed without taking out a single enemy.
But those who remained were sharpened into elites in the flames of war.
This is a different kind of law of the jungle.
Use life and death to weed out the weak and leave the strong behind.
The so-called drills are just teaching them how to aim, how to reload, and how to pull the trigger.
For now, it is to teach them how to hold the knife tightly and not let go when swinging the knife; how to draw the knife if they hit someone... Well, you are already a mature fighter, you have to learn to kill the enemy by yourself !
Damn!
This is chaos mode.
Nian Xu looked crazy.
"Sir, the envoy of the Southern Zhou Dynasty has arrived."
What?
Zhang Chumao was stunned.
Tang Jun seems to be proud of himself, but he knows his own difficulties.There is not much food and grass, and the enemy's harassment is becoming more and more troublesome.In such a situation, it is easiest to lose sight of the other.
Once the grain road is frequently harassed, or even cut off.
Then, the Tang army will either desperately break through the city of Bianjing in order to obtain supplies.Either turn around and flee back to southern Xinjiang under the harassment of Zhou Jun along the way.
But Nianxu even sent an envoy!
This!
King Yue asked subconsciously: "Is that right?"
"That's right, the person who came also said that he was an old friend of Yang Shijun."
Zhang Huan smiled and looked at Yang Xuan, "Zitai also has old friends here?"
"No!" Yang Xuan was also confused, "The lower official came here once before, and he was a serious mission."
"Who is that person?"
"Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites, Wang Zhong."
Isn't this the ruthless man who broke his own toe?
Yang Xuan thought about when he was an envoy to the Southern Zhou Dynasty, Wang Zhong took the embassy to various places for 'playing', and demonstrated incidentally.On the way, he encountered traitors and was trapped in Yecheng.
That time, Yang Xuan saw the reality of Nan Zhou.
Civil officials are shameless!
The warriors still retain their blood.
For the sake of his official career, Wang Zhong resolutely broke his toes, and returned with a heroic attitude... He was rewarded for his meritorious service, and he was promoted to Minister of Rites not long after.
The defenders of Yecheng fought bravely, but they did not rest in peace.
This world is like that.
"This person has dealt with him when he was appointed as an envoy."
Zhang Huan asked, "What kind of person is he?"
"Cunning, ruthless! Especially ruthless to myself."
"Don't be afraid of cunning, nor be afraid of being ruthless, but people who are ruthless to themselves should not be underestimated." Zhou Zun said.
The kings are here.
Keep a straight face, not angry.
"The Tang army attacked Da Zhou for no reason..."
Yang Xuan coughed dryly, "Don't talk about it, first ask what the Southern Zhou rulers and ministers did!"
Wang Zhong immediately changed into a friendly smile, "Da Zhou and Datang have been in harmony for many years, just like a husband and wife. Occasionally they have some conflicts, so they shouldn't fight!"
"Then what do you think, what should Tang do, just let it go?"
"Your Majesty has explained this matter, and the perpetrator has been taken down..."
"Is that the scapegoat?" Yang Xuan sneered, "If I'm not wrong, the person behind is Zaifu!"
"Ha ha!"
"Ha ha!"
The two are opposite each other.
Suddenly found a little quiet.
Look slowly.
In the lobby, Zhang Huan and others were watching them.
"Hey!" Zhang Huan got up, "I'm tired, I'm going to have a rest. Zitai, you're so good at hospitality."
"Yes."
After leaving the lobby, Zhang Huan said with a smile: "The old man has the most headaches and fights with others. Now it's all right, throw it to him."
Zhou Zun said: "I'm afraid that the lion of the Southern Zhou Dynasty will open its mouth."
"Relax." Zhang Huan said flatly, "Your son-in-law won't suffer in Beiliao. Do you think Nan Zhou can make him bow his head?"
In the lobby, Yang Xuan waved his hand, and everyone went out.
The two sat down opposite each other.
"Let's talk! What's the bottom line?" Yang Xuan said bluntly.
The kings coughed dryly, "Retreat!"
"benefit!"
"Give you some food and grass."
"Our army is not short of food and grass."
"Hehe! The solitary army is going deep, and there are more and more King Qin's troops, gathering around the left and right, can the grain road be protected?"
Yang Xuan said indifferently: "We will feed on the enemy."
To feed on the enemy is to transform into locusts and plunder all the food that can be searched. As for how many people starve to death in the occupied areas, it has nothing to do with Datang.
Wang Zhong narrowed his eyes, "Cruel!"
"It's all about fighting, Datang is not afraid of the reputation of brutality."
"What does Datang want?"
"One, apologies!"
This is what it should be!
The kings were silent.
Peng Jing and others risked their lives, tampered with the presents, and humiliated Li Mi, and the kings will know about this.
"Second, compensation!"
"money?"
"That's right!"
Southern Zhou is not short of money!
No, the common people are short of money, but the people above are not short of money!
Yang Xuan discovered an interesting phenomenon, the poorer the people, the richer the people above.
"How many?"
Before the expedition, the conditions given by Chang'an were that the indemnity was 300 million yuan.
It is said that some people said too much, fearing that Nan Zhou would not agree.
Yang Xuan stretched out a finger...Looking at Wang Zhong, he stretched out another...
Wang Zhong was shocked.
Yang Xuan stretched out another finger.
The kings were angry.
Yang Xuan stretched out his fourth finger.
The anger of the kings faded a little.
I stretch again...
One hand moved back and forth.
"500 million dollars!"
"This is extortion!"
"Old King." Yang Xuan said kindly: "You have to know that we conquered the land of the three states, and did not cause any massacres, let alone the people of Dasuo."
"300 million!"
"This is a negotiation between the two countries, not a bargaining between businessmen. Old Wang, if you feel that there is no way to talk, then go back first!"
"No reason!"
Wang Zhong walked away with a cold face.
Yang Xuan went to report.
"500?"
Zhang Huan had a toothache, "It's too ruthless, too much, if it angers the monarchs and ministers of the Southern Zhou Dynasty, we will still be in trouble."
"Don't worry Zhang Xiang, for the Southern Zhou monarchs and ministers, things that can be solved with money are nothing."
"How do you judge?" Zhou Zun asked.
"I stretched out a finger, and the king didn't respond. With the second finger, the king was shocked. With the third finger, he was angry. With the fourth finger, his expression gradually faded. With the fifth finger, he was shocked. He is indifferent when he is pointing his finger."
"How do you say it?" someone asked.
"If it exceeds the bottom line set by the emperor and ministers of the Southern Zhou Dynasty, the kings will be silent, not angry, let alone shocked." Zhou Zun said.
"If it exceeds too much, there is no room for it. If so, what's the use of being angry and shocked?" Zhang Huan said with a smile: "If you go into business, you can make a lot of money if you think about it."
Yang Xuan said humbly: "Mr. Zhang is overrated."
"The old man has been wandering around these few days, and I will leave the rest to you." Zhang Huan even stretched his waist, "Hey! I haven't been so relaxed and comfortable in many years. Don't bother the old man if you have nothing to do."
Zhou Zun said: "The construction of the raft has begun, do you want to continue?"
Zhang Huan nodded, "Of course we must continue. Let the emperor and ministers of the Southern Zhou Dynasty take a look. If the negotiation fails, the army will cross the river and arrive at Bianjing."
Yang Xuan also found a place with a gentle current, and asked the craftsman who built the raft to get a simple deck chair and a fishing rod.
Wu Da led someone to get an umbrella, and Yang Xuan was fishing under the umbrella.
"Hey! Shu Tan!"
The old thief also got a fishing rod nearby, and since he hasn't seen anything for a long time, he lost interest.
"Lang Jun, money is not the purpose of this Southern Expedition, is it?"
"Of course not."
"Then why did Mr. Lang ask for an extra 200 million yuan... This seems to have angered the monarchs and ministers of the Southern Zhou Dynasty."
"I just want them to get used to it first."
When the kings came, they saw Yang Xuan fishing, and thought of the hard work of running back and forth, they couldn't help but smile wryly.
"The old man went back and talked badly, and was sprayed with saliva, so he agreed."
Hurry up and retreat!
Yang Xuan coughed dryly, "Old Wang, do you still remember the slogan of our army going south?"
"What?" Wang Zhong suddenly changed his face, "Twenty cities?"
"That's right, old Wang, you have a good memory. It's a big loss that Nian Xu didn't let you take charge of the household department!" Yang Xuan said with a smile.
"Impossible!" Wang Zhong jumped up like a cat whose tail was stepped on.
"Nothing is impossible!" Yang Xuan said with a cold face, "Twenty cities have been said, and now there are still three cities left. Go back and tell Nian Xu, if you refuse to give it, then don't blame us for taking it yourself!"
Wang Zhong said with a cold face, "This is absolutely impossible! This is a dream!"
Yang Xuan said lightly: "I prefer to dream."
The kings left again.
"Twenty cities!" Zhang Chumao said, "The cities around Bianjing are all gone. If you have to go around Bianjing to get it, you will be cut off from your back if you are not careful."
This is not wrong.
There is still a large army in the city of Bianjing. If they go out of the city and cut off the retreat of the Tang army, King Qin's army will attack everywhere, and the army will be in danger!
Yang Xuan said: "Mr. Zhang, I thought this could be done."
Zhang Huan has been thinking about this for the past two days.Attacking again, there was a little meng lang in the situation where king qin's army was haunting all over the place.He is the commander-in-chief, and he has to be responsible for the army, not the so-called goal of twenty cities.
Nanzhou paid compensation, apologized, and we won a big victory, what more do we need?
Whoever really wants to get twenty cities seriously, let him do it himself.
Zhang Huan said indifferently: "Since the Southern Expedition, our army has broken through the city seventeen times, which is almost the same."
Zhou Zun said: "There are some fortresses on the side."
Everyone couldn't help nodding slightly, thinking to themselves: It really is the Patriarch of the Zhou family, this idea is really brilliant.
A fortress is also a city!
Get three forts down, then claim to break the city twenty, and go home with 500 million yuan to finish the job.
Wonderful!
Zhang Huan couldn't help but praise: "Zhou Changshi's words are very kind!"
"Exactly!" Even the king of Yue was full of praise.
I thought to myself, my grandfather alienated Zhou Zun, is it a little rash... This man is so talented!
What the emperor wanted was face, Nanzhou apologized, and the compensation was paid. He was overjoyed, who dared to say that the fortress was not a city, and Li Mi was able to exile his family to southern Xinjiang to join those southern Xinjiang rebels.
Yang Xuan said, "Master Zhang, we don't have much food left."
"I'll search again next time, and I'll urge you to follow up with the supplies." It's hard for a clever woman to cook without rice, and Zhang Huan can only do so.
"The lower official thinks that maybe the people of Southern Zhou will give us some."
"You mean..."
"With the three cities in hand, the food inside is enough for us to withdraw our troops."
"It's not easy to attack!"
"Maybe they can take the initiative to open the city gate!"
"What do you mean by that?" Yue Wang asked.
"Master Zhang, I want to try."
"Don't make extra branches!" Zhang Chumao said.
"Just try." Yang Xuan said with a smile.
"Then try it!" Zhang Huan glanced at Yang Xuan, then glanced at Yue Wang and the two, knowing their thoughts well.
"The lower official wants to take some people across the river."
Zhang Huan smiled, "Show off your might!"
……
Wang Zhong brought back Tang Jun's conditions.
"Three cities, do you want us to take the initiative to open the gates?" Han Bi was furious, "Your Majesty, let's get the army ready for war!"
What a shame!
The emperors and ministers of the Southern Zhou Dynasty were all angry!
Drills are going on every day in the city, and the sound of shouting and killing is loud.
……
In the early morning, the mist slowly covers the earth, and the most beautiful tulle is not enough to compare.
The sergeant guarding the city yawned and tried to look outside the city.
"Tang Jun is opposite Yingshui, be careful."
The general is patrolling dutifully, beating the paralyzed thoughts of his subordinates.
"They dare not come!" said an old pawn.
"You shouldn't dare." The general comforted: "A large army is gathered in the city. Your Majesty has left the inner treasury. The household department has also mobilized money and food. The morale of the army is high. If the Tang army dares to come, then give them a head-on blow!"
Da da!
Da da!
"There is the sound of horseshoes!" The old pawn turned around suddenly, his eyes widened, staring at the mist in the distance.
The morning sun slowly floated in the east, and a ray of purple light swayed over.The mist moves slowly in the purple light, like a beauty dancing in tulle.
Sudden.The mist twisted violently.
Then got knocked away.
A war horse rushed out of the mist, its drooping head suddenly lifted, and it opened its mouth to neigh vigorously, blowing away the mist in front of it.
The war horse neighed!
The knight on horseback came out of the mist, his helmet was covered with water vapor, he raised his head indifferently, and looked at the top of the city.
then.
Grim smile.
"It's Tang Jun!"
Dangdang Dangdang!
The sound of the alarm bell woke up the soldiers and civilians in the city.
Xie Yingong turned pale and went to the bedroom.
Nian Xu, who was eating breakfast, looked calm, "Wait until I finish eating."
He ate his breakfast slowly.
The ministers are here.
They all stood outside the hall.
Here come the generals.
Stand on the other side.
The difference is clear.
After drinking the soup, Nian Xu took the cloth towel and wiped the corners of his mouth.
then.
Said:
"Great Zhou has been a country for many years, and Bianjing has never seen an enemy army. Today, I saw it."
"Your servant, I will die!" Sun Shi took the lead, and the courtiers bowed to plead guilty.
Nian Xu coughed dryly, then wiped the corners of his mouth.
"I'm still the emperor, right?"
No one dared to say anything.
"Then, I will be the master once."
The officials bowed their heads.
"give them!"
(End of this chapter)
"This is Yingshui!"
Yang Xuan got off his horse and walked to Yingshui.
The current is swift and mighty.
The pontoon bridge has been destroyed, and there is still some trouble in crossing the river.
"There is a section of the river with calm water downstream, but all the nearby boats have been scoured."

Yang Xuan stretched out a finger...Looking at Wang Zhong, he stretched out another...
Wang Zhong was shocked.
Yang Xuan stretched out another finger.
The kings were angry.
Yang Xuan stretched out his fourth finger.
The anger of the kings faded a little.
I stretch again...
One hand moved back and forth.
"500 million dollars!"
"This is extortion!"
"Old King." Yang Xuan said kindly: "You have to know that we conquered the land of the three states, and did not cause any massacres, let alone the people of Dasuo."
"300 million!"
"This is a negotiation between the two countries, not a bargaining between businessmen. Old Wang, if you feel that there is no way to talk, then go back first!"
"No reason!"
Wang Zhong walked away with a cold face.
Yang Xuan went to report.
"500?"
Zhang Huan had a toothache, "It's too ruthless, too much, if it angers the monarchs and ministers of the Southern Zhou Dynasty, we will still be in trouble."
"Don't worry Zhang Xiang, for the Southern Zhou monarchs and ministers, things that can be solved with money are nothing."
