Chapter 653
After the battle between Xie Xun and Dugu Jing, the negotiations between the high priest and the cabinet began to go very smoothly. Beining needed the minerals of the northern barbarians, and the northern barbarians needed a warm place to live and work in peace and contentment. If the war could not be solved, the only solution was to surrender. In this way, the entire ethnic group migrates.After Dugujing had a fight with Xie Xun, he seemed to be upset and often came to look for Xie Xun.

Xie Xun was seriously injured and did not go to court. It was just when he and Feng Yu were newly married that Dugu Jing came to look for him. He asked the imperial doctor extremely irritably, "Is it just a flesh wound? Can he still run to the palace in the winter?" "

"Your Majesty, he is indeed slightly injured." The imperial doctor told the truth. Dugu Jing's injury was much less serious than Xie Xun's. His daily life was not a problem, and there was no need to keep taking the medicine. In addition, his body was strong, which Feng Xue was very good at. He really is nothing.

Xie Xun was speechless. His wound was quite deep. He could just leave the government affairs to his second brother and take some time off. He didn't expect to have to receive Dugu Jing. Yes, they were still negotiating. He couldn't turn a blind eye, and he couldn't live in Changshou. The palace sees Dugu Jing and can only meet guests in the Jinxiu Palace on the west side of the Imperial Garden.

The palace where the queen meets guests is on the east side, so Xie Xun chose the west side. Now the central area of ​​the palace is surrounding the Changshou Palace. Xie Xun can't show off Dugu Jing's attitude of wanting to fight again. He looked seriously injured, so he could only bear the pain to see him, and his expression was naturally not that good.

"If you are not recuperating in the post house, why are you coming to the palace to see me?"

Who knew that Dugu Jing was here to deliver medicine to him.

"This is Beiman's original wound medicine. It is very effective in treating external injuries. Apply it to the injured area and it will take effect in three to five days." Dugu Jing brought a large jar of ointment over.

Xie Xun was still frightened by the poisonous insects of the Northern Barbarians, but he still had trust in Dugu Jing's character. This man had a bad temper, was impulsive, and irritable, but he acted very openly and would not use poisonous insects to harm others. He still saved Feng. Yu Yisheng, thinking of this life-saving grace, his hatred for Dugu Jing is not as intense as it was a few years ago.

"Thank you." Xie Xun ordered people to collect the ointment, thinking that it would be studied at the Tai Hospital some other time. He felt that their medical skills were not as good as those of the Northern Barbarians. As for the wounded soldiers of the Northern Barbarians, unless they died, they would be able to heal them quickly. Returning to the battlefield must have something to do with their medicine, "You entered the palace not just to deliver medicine, right?
"Just a reminder, send Han Ziqi back to Sangnan as soon as possible." Dugu Jing's face was expressionless. Although he was handsome, he was too evil and had a fierce look on his face. Even if he said nice words, he would be very fierce as long as he didn't smile.

"Han Ziqi..." Xie Xun muttered. He knew that Han Ziqi was still evil and wanted to drive a wedge between him and his second brother. In this arena match between him and Dugu Jing, Han Ziqi was behind it. He was waiting to see the show. If Dugu Jing could be there, After killing him in the ring, Han Ziqi was afraid that he would set off firecrackers to congratulate him, "He would have left a year ago. You and Sang Nan jointly sent troops. We have always been good friends. Why are you turning against him now?"

"Who told you that if we send out troops together, even Sang Nan's troops are worthy of it!" Dugu Jing said in an arrogant tone, "As early as last year, the gods predicted that extreme cold was coming, and our homeland was not suitable for survival, and migration was imminent. We Either go south, enter Ningzhou, or cross the Ice Lake Grand Canyon and go north. Over there is an unfamiliar territory to us, and it is still separated by the sea. We can only move south. With our military strength, we cannot defeat the Ningzhou Cavalry. . Even if it is a peace negotiation, you will not allow us to cross the border of Ningzhou. The high priest and Brother Wang have already expressed their intention to surrender. Only surrender can protect the existing people. I am not willing to surrender like this. After fighting for hundreds of years, the North Man and Beining have a deep hatred for a long time. Even if we surrender to Beining, they will not accept us. We can't negotiate any good conditions, so I want to give it a try. This year's war is a last-ditch battle. If we lose, we surrender. If we win, we still have A glimmer of hope can preserve our homeland and independence. Sang Nan's proposal is just what he wants and fits the battle plan we formulated. We have never conspired with Sang Nan. If we had colluded with Sang Nan, I would not have stopped when Sang Nan sent troops. .”

Dugujing realized that continuing to indulge in war would only cost the lives of the people, and he could not defeat the Ningzhou cavalry at all. The severe winter was coming, and there were hundreds of thousands of people behind him who needed to be resettled, so they wanted to negotiate as soon as possible before winter. Conditions, even if they can't cross the border of Ningzhou, they must at least move to live outside Ningzhou city. From the north of Shaling Tianshan to the south, there is only one Tianshan between them, and the climate is completely different.

"No wonder, if you and Han Ziqi had a fight when they met in Kyoto, Han Ziqi must hate you to death. You are the commander-in-chief of the three armies. As long as you drag the Ningzhou cavalry in Ningzhou, Jiangnan will be isolated and helpless. The Ningzhou cavalry cannot support Jiangnan. Sangnan Maybe I can penetrate the Twelve States directly, but then I can only shrink the front line." Xie Xun frowned, "Then I am very strange, why did you give up? If you continue to drag the Ningzhou Cavalry, maybe Beining is in chaos."

"At that time, our opinions in the imperial court were not unified, and the views of the main war faction were not as good as those of the peace faction. Since the gods have warned us, we wanted to move to Beining. We hoped that Beining would accept us and resettle us. Main war is no longer possible. We If we can't get past the Ningzhou cavalry, we can only sue for peace. We can't go to Beining, which is in constant war. I don't want to accept a fool like Yu Wenjing as the emperor. If I can choose, I would rather you and Xie Jue, no matter who it is Ascended to the throne, although our hatred is as deep as the sea, to the people, your brothers are much better than Yu Wenjing, so I choose to cease the war."

Xie Xun was not in Ningzhou at the time, and it was Xie Jue and Feng Yu who discussed it. Dugu Jing had already had such an idea at the time, but he would not expose it. Even after he came to Beijing, he has always been unwilling to surrender, with a strong character. Zhengzheng's appearance must be what he was thinking, but he also clearly realized that he had to compromise. He didn't expect that he had not exposed his goal for such a long time.After three days of separation, I should look at each other with admiration. Dugu Jing is quite capable of hiding!
"Dugu Jing, don't worry, I promise you that as long as you have no intention of revolting and rebelling, and keep yourselves, the people of the Northern Barbarians will be able to live and work in peace and contentment in Beining." Xie Xun also knew his promise, and Dugu Jing may not believe it, but time will tell. Tell him that there will be nothing wrong with the surrender of the Northern Barbarians.

"Then let's wait and see!" Dugu Jing was still unwilling, "If the weather hadn't worsened, we Northern Barbarians would never give in and we would be able to cross Ningzhou one day. If the Northern Barbarians could have the land conditions of Sangnan..."

"Stop dreaming!" Xie Xun interrupted him, not politely at all, "A land and water support a people. If you have the conditions of Sangnan, you are not a brave and fighting group. We Ningzhou cavalry will also defend the border to the death. , you will never be able to cross Ningzhou by force, surrender is the best option."

Dugu Jing snorted coldly, "If we change places, would you be willing to do so?"

"You are not willing to give in, but you have no choice. The gods have warned you, do you still have a choice?" No one is willing to surrender and lose their homeland. "Although the Northern Barbarians are vast, most of them are mining areas, snow-capped mountains, and the Gobi are really not suitable. In order to survive, moving early is also a good thing for the people. In a few decades, you will also regard Beining as your homeland."

He is the winner and can reason with Dugu Jing unscrupulously. As a general and the coach, it is extremely shameful for Dugu Jing to admit that he surrenders.

If he were Dugu Jing, he would rather die on the battlefield. That is the final destination of a general.

But he couldn't talk to Dugu Jing like this!

Xie Xun could only say, "Both the high priest and the Northern Barbarian King agreed to surrender, which means that the general trend is the trend and the people also need to live a peaceful life. Personal honor and disgrace are nothing. For the sake of the people and future generations, your choice is correct."

"Who knows!" Dugu Jing laughed at himself. There are some soldiers in the army who would rather die in battle than surrender. But the matter has come to this and the general trend is. "The high priest and the cabinet have almost reached an agreement. I hope you can open the border as soon as possible. Twelve After the month, it is extremely cold in the northern barbarians, making life difficult for the people."

"You go and urge the high priest to negotiate terms. I will send people to Ningzhou. It is not realistic for millions of northern barbarians to enter Ningzhou. They can first move to Qianling Town and some of them to Ningzhou for resettlement. We also need time to resettle. , I want at least half a year, how to resettle, where to resettle, which town in the Twelve Prefectures is suitable, all this requires the cabinet to formulate detailed resettlement content, it cannot be arranged in a short time, you can spend the winter outside Ningzhou City."

In fact, Ningzhou is also full of ice and snow in December, but the weather is much better than that of the Northern Barbarians, which is acceptable to the Northern Barbarians. However, after leaving their homeland, life has become a problem in the past few months. Their food, medicine and quilts Whether the clothes can survive the winter is a question, which requires support and subsidies from Bac Ninh.

"Okay!" Dugu Jing looked at Xie Xun and said in a deep voice, "Xie Xun, I hope you can do what you say and treat everyone equally!"
