Summoning the Peak of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 2271 Two points of Yongzhou, a truce

Chapter 2267: Divide Yongzhou into two, strike and truce

The news of the signing of the "Treaty of Luoyang" came out, and the people of Qin State rejoiced. After all, the signing of the treaty meant that the war was about to end.

From the war in Hebei to the signing of the treaty, within a year, the Qin State had fought three or four times, and there were countless small-scale wars, which also burdened the government and the people. severe war pressure.

You must know that Qin's policies during wartime were completely different from those in peacetime.

The state of Qin is divided into three types, one is a state of truce, the other is a state of partial war, and the third is a state of general war.

Each of the three states corresponds to a different wartime policy.

In the Battle of Hebei, Qin State originally started a local war. After all, only the resources of Bingzhou and Hetao were used.

However, as the five armies of the Southern Han Dynasty attacked Qin, Qin, which was fighting on multiple fronts, had to start a state of full-scale war.

In the state of Qin in a state of all-out war, all resources are given priority to an army, and the people must also provide compulsory corvee with only a small amount of remuneration.

According to statistics, during the Jizhou War, the Qin State accumulated nearly 100 million people in Hetao and Hetao of Bingzhou, and recruited nearly [-] million people to perform compulsory corvee service and transport grain and grass for the front line.

As for the Youzhou War, also in Jizhou and Qingbei, 80 people were conscripted to serve in corvee.

As for Jingzhou and Sizhou, the number of people in corvee service is slightly smaller, but the total number has reached 70.

In the state of Qin in a state of all-out war, all resources in the country were tilted towards the war, which also caused the gross production value during the war to be greatly reduced.

If it goes on for a long time, the people will definitely have more complaints, and the accumulation of complaints will form public grievances, which is not conducive to the rule. This is one of the reasons why civil servants all support the truce.

Now that the war is over, Qin State has ended its wartime state, and if it returns to the original self-cultivation policy, Qin State will also return to a normal social state.

This is tantamount to releasing the shackles that bind the people, and the people naturally cheered.

Apart from the common people, the envoys of the hostile countries of Qin were the happiest. They felt that they joined forces to force Qin to back down. This proves that Qin is afraid of all countries joining forces.

Qin was afraid, so they wanted to unite, but Wei, Song and Wu were still Qin's allies, and it was not so easy to pull them all into the anti-Qin alliance.

Among Qin's allies, Wei was too close to Qin, and did not dare to be an enemy of Qin until it completely got rid of Qin's control.

As for the state of Wu, if they wanted to bring it into the alliance, even if Shu and Sui were willing, Chu would not.

Therefore, the seven-nation alliance is still full of difficulties and has a long way to go.

Some people are happy with the signing of the treaty, but naturally there are also many people who are dissatisfied with it, such as Taixue students.

The students are far more insightful and far-sighted than the common people. They feel that with the strength of the Qin State, they can take advantage of the victory and pursue the attack, devouring the entire Yongzhou and completely defeating the Tang State.

But now that half of the battle has been fought, only half of Yongzhou has been won. It would be a pity to stop fighting here.

What's more, even if the two countries strike a truce, Qin can win more benefits as it has won.

Compared with the "Treaty of Jinyang" and "Treaty of Lulong", the terms of the "Treaty of Luoyang" are really too cheap for Tang.

The unequal treaty signed between Qin State and Yuan Qing Dynasty won a lot of benefits without fighting, and it also provided the appetite of Qin State's officials, so it was naturally difficult to accept the relatively equal "Luoyang Treaty".

For this reason, the Taixue students decided to jointly sign a letter, requesting to add eight agreements, but this letter was not submitted at all, but was detained by Xun Shuang, the Taixue sacrificial wine, in the middle.

In addition to the Taixue students, there are many knowledgeable and heart-to-heart people in Daqin, such as: Li Bai, Qiao Feng, etc., who are also dissatisfied with this treaty, but they know that Qin is for the sake of the overall situation, so they don’t Compete with other countries in terms of these small profits.

"It's a good time for the Tang Dynasty this time. If it wasn't for the imminent enthronement of the King of Qin and the fact that the envoys of all countries were in Luoyang, it wouldn't be a two-point situation in Yongzhou. But it's okay. If the Qin army is sending troops, Li Tang will definitely not be able to keep Guanzhong. .”

Inside the Tongfu Inn, Li Bai was drinking while talking to Li Xunhuan who was opposite.

Li Xun Huan drank it down in one gulp, feeling a little depressed in his heart.

Although he left the Li family and roamed the rivers and lakes with his idol Li Bai, he was from the Li family after all, and the blood relationship cannot be broken. Naturally, he did not want Tang to be destroyed by the Great Qin.

But as far as it is now, Tang, which has lost half of Guanzhong, has become a vassal, and has lost its aggressiveness, has no capital to fight against Qin.

It's not just Li Xunhuan, but anyone with a bit of knowledge doesn't think Qin will be satisfied if he gets half of Yongzhou.

Tang State is fighting for a chance to breathe, so why not Qin State?
After the state of Qin cultivated itself and thoroughly digested Hebei, if the next step is to send troops, what would the state of Tang use to resist the Qin army?

Li Xun Huan sighed helplessly, as the general trend is going, there is nothing left to do.

"This little friend's opinion is quite impressive."

Jiang Shang appeared next to Li Baizhuo, looked at Li Bai and Li Xunhuan with a smile on his face, cupped his hands and said, "Old man Xiong Fei, can we have a discussion together."

Li Bai didn't take it seriously at first, he just thought he was a knowledgeable old man, but when he saw Wen Zhong beside Jiang Shang, and found that he couldn't detect the depth of the other party, he was shocked, and quickly saluted: "Li Bai has seen him." Two seniors, take your seat quickly, take your seat quickly."

Wen Zhong showed surprise: "You are Li Bai, a poetic fairy?"

"It's just a false name, not worth mentioning."

Although Li Bai was born in the Yellow Turban, his talent is well-known all over the world. Even Jiang Shang and Wen Zhong, who are interested in the Han Dynasty, can hardly feel disgusted with him.

Jiang Shang and Wen Zhong looked at each other, they didn't expect that after entering Luoyang, they found a random inn, and the person they chatted with would be a famous poet.

Is the world too small?Or are they just lucky?

In fact, it's not just Jiang Shang and Wen Zhong. It's not uncommon to meet celebrities like this in Luoyang.

King Qin proclaimed himself emperor soon, not only envoys from all over the world gathered in Luoyang, celebrities from all over the world also gathered in Luoyang, a few chance encounters were nothing.

"Since little friend Li Bai has invited you, then this old man will refuse..."

Before the words fell, screams rang in Jiang Shang's ears.

"Li Bai, you are Li Bai, the Immortal of Poetry, Lao Bai, come and see, the Immortal of Poetry has come to our shop."

"What is a poetic fairy? I'm still a thief... what kind of poetic fairy?"

"Really or not? Damn, it's actually true. Everyone, come and see, Shixian is here."

"Mr. Taibai, I'm a fan of your poetry. You haven't published a new work for three months since "Jiang Jin Jiu" and "The Road to Shu". I wonder what will be your next work?"

"Mr. Taibai..."

After a while, a large number of people poured into Li Bai's private room. Because there were too many people, Jiang Shang and Wen Zhong were squeezed out.

Jiang Shang and Wen Zhong were both dumbstruck looking at the people who were still squeezing in. What's wrong with the young people nowadays, they are just poets, so what?

Or are they old and stubborn?

. . . . . . . . . . .

Chang'an, the camp of the Qin army.

"Report...the lord has ordered that the "Luoyang Treaty" has been signed, Li Tang surrendered and became a vassal, and the two countries ceased fighting. After the ceded land was handed over, the army retreated into Lantian, Chongquan, Xinfeng, and Yufu in four routes. "

Lu Qinghou read Ying Hao's will in public, and as soon as he finished speaking, the scene immediately exploded.

"What? Chang'an is about to fall, so why not stop fighting at this time?" Gao Chong said in shock.

"That's right, if the troops are withdrawn at this time, wouldn't the soldiers who were injured in the siege die in vain?" Yu Wencheng asked puzzled.

"We can't withdraw our troops. Even if we do, we have to wait until we capture Chang'an," Lu Bu said.

"Yes, the general will not accept the order of the emperor..."

……

"Enough, shut up for Ben Governor."

After Li Jing shouted loudly, the scene immediately fell silent. After Li Jing received the order from the scholar, he said, "Li Jing respectfully obeys my lord's orders."

Lu Xiucai glanced at the generals with lingering fear, and then said to Li Jing: "The opening ceremony is coming soon, and the four governors, Bai Qi, Yue Fei, Meng Tian, ​​and Zhou Yu, have all returned to Luoyang. One, we should try our best to return to Luoyang to observe the ceremony."

Li Jing's eyes froze, he clasped his fists and said, "Understood, please report back to my lord, Li Jing must return to Luoyang before the founding ceremony."
