East Factory Governor

Chapter 699 Signing the Peace Treaty
Qin Shuhuai remained calm, but his brain was spinning rapidly.

After pondering for a while, he said, "Brother Yan, since you and I are brothers, then I will tell you a few words from my heart, which I have never said to outsiders."

Yan Huizhi cupped his hands and said, "Brother Qin, please tell me, I will listen carefully."

Wu Lie immediately said very understandingly, "Young Master, my subordinates will go down and guard the door."

After speaking, go out and close the door.

Qin Shuhuai lowered his voice and expressed regret to Yan, "Brother Yan, now the Western Regions are divided by Yaerqiang and Junggar, and they have long since disobeyed the orders of the imperial court. The heart of the Central Plains is in serious trouble. Therefore, I have already prepared for an expedition."

Yan Huizhi was slightly startled when he heard this, "Brother Qin is planning to go on an expedition to the Western Regions?"

Qin Shuhuai said sternly, "The Western Regions have been under the jurisdiction of China since the Han Dynasty. How can we lose the significance of China's trade and exchanges with Western countries so easily? If we don't recover the Western Regions, it will be a great loss." The prosperous age is not enough to make up for this mistake!"

After finishing speaking, he changed his tone and said, "However, the biggest problem with the expedition to the Western Regions at present is your religion. If your religion does not withdraw its troops, the imperial court will not dare to conquer the Western Regions."

Yan Huizhi frowned slightly, "Brother Qin, what do you mean?"

"What I mean is that it is really not suitable for your religion to go on an expedition now, but the court can! I can help you avenge your religion! Brother Yan, please spread this word to Mei Hufa and others, and say that as long as they agree to withdraw their troops, within half a year The imperial court will definitely send troops to the Western Regions to avenge the leader of Yan, Guardian Zhao, the five apostles and others! In this way, brother Yan will not have to worry about it!"

Qin Shuhuai really wanted the Demon Cult to watch, did he take the soldiers of the imperial court to go on an expedition to the Western Regions?

of course not!

But he had to say it first.

Otherwise, if he excitedly proposed that the imperial court is willing to join hands with your Demon Cult in an expedition to the Western Regions, what would the people in the Demon Cult think?
You fought me to the death before, and now you suddenly offered to help us go to the Western Regions for revenge?
If it's not that you're schizophrenic, it's that you have no good intentions and want to bully us, right?
It's no wonder that Mei Yinzhi and others can't doubt it!
Moreover, even Yan Huizhi would have doubts!

But now that he said that, the Demon Cult has nothing to worry about.

It is said to let you withdraw your troops and stay there, watching the court bring people to avenge you, what else do you want?

Could it be that the court just wanted to trick you into withdrawing your troops?
joke!

Does the court still need to lie?
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that if the imperial court wants to recover Gansu, it can at least mobilize 20 elites, including the Wulin Allied Forces. There are not many healthy people in your Demon Cult from the leader to the scattered people, and the elites are only [-]. Can you bear it?

And most importantly, even if Qin Shuhuai didn't mention the expedition to the Western Regions, both Yan Huizhi and Mei Yinzhi wanted to negotiate peace and withdraw their troops.

Isn't that obvious?

If Yan Huizhi wanted to return to Kunlun, he must have peace talks with the imperial court.

And if Mei Yinzhi wants to fight Yarkand, is it possible that he does not need to negotiate peace with the court?He still wants to deal with the court and Yeerqiang at the same time?No idiot would think so.

To put it bluntly, most of the knowledgeable people in the Demon Cult are very clear that the enmity of Leader Yan mainly comes from the Empress, and has nothing to do with the court. It was wrong for them to crusade against the court in the first place. The two apostles made a decision under the instigation of ulterior motives, and now they will naturally change it.Second, even if they fight the court now, they can't beat it.

So peace talks are inevitable.

In this way, Qin Shuhuai's words made it impossible for the Demon Cult to find any doubts.

Totally great kindness.

Then why did Qin Shuhuai do this?
Because he believed that, with the evil nature of the devil's sect, he would never watch the court help them take revenge.

To them, if they didn't kill the three red-capped men and the empress' son, would that count as revenge?
So as long as the imperial court sends troops, the Demon Cult will definitely propose to join hands with the imperial court on its own initiative!

There is no need to elaborate on the difference between Qin Shuhuai's initiative to invite them and their own initiative, right?
Even Qin Shuhuai had already thought about it. If the Demon Cult was still not at ease and wanted to wait and see for a while before making a decision, then he would "fail" expeditions again and again, to see who was more anxious than whom?

Sure enough, after he finished speaking, Yan Huizhi was startled.

"Brother Qin, do you really think so?"

"If you don't think so, why do you think? The Western Regions must be leveled, otherwise what face can be called a prosperous world?" Qin Shuhuai smiled slightly, "As for helping you avenge, this favor is not for nothing! If there is such a day, you can I want Brother Yan to remember to pay it back."

But it revealed the true nature of a teenager, causing Yan Huizhi to smile wryly.

After pondering for a long time, he finally spoke his mind to Qin Shuhuai.

"Brother Qin, if you want to rule the world, you really don't want... don't you want to be an enemy of my sect?"

He said it tactfully, but in fact he wanted to ask, does he really not want to take this opportunity to completely level the Sun Moon Sect?
Qin Shuhuai has been perplexed by this question since he entered Gansu.

It stands to reason that after Qin Shuhuai flattened Sichuan, as long as he mobilizes his troops to attack the Sun Moon Sect with all the strength of the whole country, there is a high chance of winning.

But why did he have to go through this journey alone?Do you have to negotiate peace with the Sun Moon Sect?
In all fairness, if it was him, he would never take such a risk.

Qin Shuhuai chuckled lightly and said, "Brother Yan, do you know what the opposition is?"

"The opposition?"

"That's right, the emperor's power is supreme, but we can't guarantee that any emperor has both ability and political integrity. Therefore, there needs to be an opposition to supervise him. The Sun Moon Sect will become this opposition in the future. When the emperor makes When you make a foolish and unreasonable decision, you can raise objections in time to alert the emperor and let him know not to act recklessly."

Yan Huizhi opened his eyes wide in surprise, and couldn't help saying, "Brother Qin...Brother Qin has such a big heart!"

Since ancient times, the monarchy cannot be bullied, but Qin Shuhuai actually wants to be a constraint on the monarchy, how can he not have such a big heart?

From Qin Shuhuai's point of view, this was a common occurrence, but from Yan Huizhi's point of view, it was earth-shattering.

After Yan Huizhi finished speaking, he couldn't help saying, "Brother Qin's mind and ambition, I am ashamed of myself."

Qin Shuhuai smiled slightly and said nothing.

He is very clear that the existence of the Sun Moon Sect must be a hidden danger to a country's turmoil.But he knows better that this kind of hidden danger will become smaller and smaller after the industrial revolution.

Martial arts will not be a decisive force in hundreds of years.No matter how good your kung fu is, you can't outrun a machine gun sweep or a cannon blast.

The biggest possibility for the Sun Moon Sect is that it will either slowly disintegrate, or become a big opposition party.

Even one day, the Sun Moon Sect might become the ruling party.

so what?The Sun Moon Sect has a universal spirit, strict self-discipline, and lenient treatment of others. It never forces ordinary people to join the Sun Moon Sect or act according to the Sun Moon Sect's rules. May I ask which political parties can do this?
In short, Qin Shuhuai couldn't and couldn't care about what happened hundreds of years later.

But at least for now, if the Ming Dynasty prospers, the Sun Moon Sect will immediately become the guardian of the prosperous age, and will never make things difficult for the imperial court, and will even help the imperial court fight all invading enemies without hesitation.

Don't forget that the Ming Dynasty was created by them.

Seeing that the chat was almost over, Qin Shuhuai said, "Brother Yan, this matter is settled. No matter what, I want you to withdraw your troops as soon as possible. Now that Sichuan has been settled, you are the only opponent left in the imperial court. If you continue to occupy Gansu, we will Without sending troops, there is no way to explain to the court and the soldiers."

Yan Huizhi said, "Brother Qin can rest assured about this. Whether it is my subordinates, Protector Mei, or most of the brothers in the sect, they all agree to withdraw troops. As for Jin Banner Lord and others, I will explain it to him of."

Qin Shuhuai clasped his fists at Yan Huizhi and said, "Then, Qin will wish Brother Yan an early ascension to the position of leader, and hope that the two of us, brothers, will only work together to fight for the prosperity of the world, and there will be no time to meet each other!"

Yan Hui said sternly, "A prosperous age is also what my sect wishes for. Now that the imperial court has a great talent like Brother Qin sitting in charge, a prosperous age can be expected, and my sect has absolutely no reason to hold it back!"

Qin Shuhuai left the city overnight and returned to the inn.

When he entered the inn, a person left immediately in a dark place near the inn.

Naturally, it is Mei Yinzhi's person.

The next afternoon, Wu Lie came again.

But this time, he was invited to enter Lanzhou City for peace talks.

With Yan Huizhi, Shenxi, Mei Yinzhi, Five Apostles, Six Apostles and other senior leaders agreeing to the peace talks, the two sides negotiated very smoothly.

The Demon Sect agreed to withdraw its troops from the whole of Gansu and return to Kunlun Mountain within one month.

However, as a guarantee of safety, the officers and soldiers were not allowed to step into Gansu territory within one month.

In addition, the Demon Sect added a clause requiring the imperial court to crusade against Yarkand within half a year.

Although Qin Shuhuai had no choice but to withdraw from the Demon Cult if he didn't make this promise, he still agreed without saying a word.

No hurries?He still needs to use this good chess piece of the Demon Sect slowly!
After the negotiation was over, Yan Huizhi, as the young master of the Demon Cult, and Qin Shuhuai, as the imperial dragon and tiger general, An Guogong, and the imperial envoy, signed and sealed the agreement respectively.

The Demon Cult rebellion that lasted for half a year finally ended with a negotiation between the two sides.

However, during the talks, Mei Yinzhi did not mention the joint attack on Yarkand with the imperial court.

This is not what Qin Shuhuai expected. With Mei Yinzhi's city mansion, he must observe it for a while before making a decision.

On December 27th of the third year of Chongzhen, Qin Shuhuai finally achieved his goal of becoming Gan, and the harvest was even greater than expected.

After signing the peace agreement, Qin Shuhuai returned to the inn, rode on the fast horse that he borrowed from the leader of the Demon Cult when he came, and went home immediately.

Go home, return home like an arrow!
