Zhenguan Crown Prince Li Chengqian

Chapter 229 Those who violate the Heavenly Power of the Tang Dynasty will be punished even if they are far away
Seeing Li Chengqian getting so angry, Du Ruhui could only comfort him: "Your Highness, there is nothing we can do about it. The daily consumption of the army is an astronomical figure, and now we have caught up with the incident of getting angry, so you have to be considerate." His Majesty's difficulty."

Li Shimin was not worried that Li Jing and Hou Junji would resist the edict. The only thing he was worried about was his son, who was always red-eyed when fighting, so he had to send an important official to come. After much deliberation, he decided to send Du Ruhui. I was really afraid that Li Chengqian would not accept him if he gave him the name of a general outside the country.

"Moreover, this Western Expedition not only wiped out the main force of the Tuyuhun Army, but also paved the way for us to manage the Western Regions in the Tang Dynasty. When I entered the camp just now, I heard that you killed Fu Yun and captured a large number of royal family members. This is a gratifying event, and it also provides an important bargaining chip for our negotiations."

What the hell, this is really the Murong family who never dies. I killed and injured such a brother this time, but finally fulfilled his throne and made a wedding dress for him. This is really useless.

So, after a few hard kicks, Li Chengqian gritted his teeth and replied to Du Ruhui: "According to the order, let's negotiate a truce."

Seeing the way the crown prince gritted his teeth, Li Jing could understand him. He had seen such things many times in his life. If Li Chengqian was so angry, he would have died of anger early on.

So he stepped forward and patted Li Chengqian on the shoulder to comfort him: "Your Highness, the future is long, and you have a long way to go in the future. Sooner or later, these remnants will fall under your army, why bother about the short-term."

Li Jing could tell that the prince, despite his young age, had the same ambition to expand his territory as his old man, so there was no need to worry about it. Just call back.

After Li Jing finished speaking, Hou Junji also answered: "That's right, Your Highness, the general is right, let's go back for a rest and call back later."

Seeing everyone saying that, Li Chengqian didn't want to be hypocritical, he let out a long sigh and said, "Then shall we discuss how to negotiate with Tuyuhun?".
The Tang army's central army account, the new Prime Minister Murong An of Tuyuhun, and Murong Kan, who had been a prisoner of the Tang army early in the morning, were appointed by Murong Shun as negotiating ambassadors. Items are negotiable.

"Du Xiang, let's see if it can be a little less. A member of the royal family has three thousand guns, but you have captured more than 200 people. There are still so many prisoners, the generals are thousands of guns, and the soldiers are all the same. What is the difference between this and robbery!

Besides, according to the truth, your army is plundering the tribe's cattle, sheep and horses wantonly in the occupation and other places, and you have not even let go of Fucheng City.The 300-year savings of the Great Tuyuhun treasury have been scoured by you all. Where does our country go to find so much money to accompany you? "

Murong An tried his best to speak in a calm tone. It was really hard for him to imagine why these usually meek Tang people became like Persian businessmen today, and they were so penny-pinching. This is not what they said about Confucius and Mencius.

"Master Murong, I want to remind you of the truth. Since the founding of our dynasty, your country has repeatedly plundered our borders. For example, in the fourth year of Wude and the third year of Zhenguan. So this war was started by you. We Datang is the real victim, okay?"

"Also, what you said about plundering the people's wealth in the occupied areas is completely nonsense. My Tang army has always been strictly disciplined among the people, so it has never committed any crimes, so these things must be done by your stragglers. Don't say it's expensive According to the consistent tradition of the national army, it is reasonable for your soldiers to loot some people's wealth to survive when the situation is over."

Du Ruhui was swearing without profanity, and secretly teased the two opposite people, saying that their country's army was like bandits, and he had reasons to prove the correctness of his words.

It is said that they hit people without slapping them in the face, but Du Ruhui slapped people in the face as well, and Murong An was so choked that he couldn't say anything except "you".

In Li Chengqian's words, this is the right of the winners. The winners don't need to make such an explanation. They have the right to throw all the blame on the losers.

"Du Xiang is not indebted to the prime minister of Shangguo. The words glib and eloquent are really suitable for your Excellency. However, your country's requirements on land are not appropriate.

The land here is already very barren, and one-third of the land is already the biggest concession, but you have asked for half.Aren't you the Great Tang Dynasty who has always been known for benevolence and righteousness?Wouldn't this drive the poor herdsmen to death? "

What Murong Kan said was very impolite, but Du Ruhui just smiled slightly after hearing it. He couldn't beat him on the battlefield, so he didn't let him talk happily, so he didn't care too much about him.

Immediately after taking a sip of hot tea, he said in a deep voice: "General Murong, you are a soldier, you should know the consequences of defeat, my Tang Dynasty is the victorious country, have the right and the ability to put forward any conditions we think are reasonable.

If you can't make the decision, you can let the new ruler of your country come, and I, Datang, will guarantee his safety during the peace talks between the two parties.

And promise that no matter what the result is, it will be sent back to you intact and unharmed.How about it?This can show the sincerity of our state of etiquette. "

After contemplating for a moment, Murong Kan stared at Du Ruhui and said, "I have admired the culture of the Central Plains for a long time. I heard that there is an allusion about the orphan of the Zhao family in your country's history. I don't know if Datang is afraid of it. If you win, we will naturally fight against you." Do as you say. However, isn't your country treating its neighbors in such a way that it will be the enemy of the world one day?"

Hehehe..., "I don't need to worry too much about this, the generals in my Tang army are all heroes of the world, and the soldiers are all heroes of Kyushu. Naturally, I am not afraid of challenges from any country. The East Turkic is the best example. Alright, Since the general agrees, then the truth has made such a plan for your country's compensation."

"Whether it is a member of the royal family or an ordinary soldier, let your country use cattle, sheep, and horses as an exchange unit to deliver a batch of supplies and release some captives. All payments will be made within three to five years. Of course, they are in my Tang Dynasty. The food consumed will also be paid for by you, and the Tuyuhun people in the ceded land will be assigned to the Tang Dynasty."

"But Fucheng City must be returned to us!" This is Murong An's final bottom line. If he can't return to his own capital, then all of this will be meaningless.

"Yes, after signing the letter of credence, we will be friendly neighbors. You can send people to take over Fuqi City at any time. I also heard a message from my palace to Murong Shun: Those who violate the power of the Tang Dynasty will be punished even if they are far away." Bi got up and left the big account. After all, he, the crown prince, should not take care of such trivial matters as signing the covenant.
