My Red Mansion Career

Chapter 170 Honest Jia Yu

Shenjing Desheng Gate

Today's Shenjing is still as prosperous as in the past, with countless people and traders busy making a living.

The soldiers guarding the city were leaning against the city gate as usual, watching countless people coming in and out.

Suddenly, along with the rapid sound of horse hooves, a line of dust and smoke appeared in front.

As soon as the city guards heard this voice, they immediately stood up straight and looked towards the city gate.

As the sound of horse hooves approached, the soldiers looked ahead with wide eyes and saw several knights coming quickly on their horses.

When the knights approached, the soldiers who were originally blocking the door also saw clearly the appearance of the leading knight and the two feathers stuck on his back, which represented the six hundred mile rush.

After seeing clearly, the soldiers quickly stepped aside.

The knights ignored him and rushed into the city gate. When he came to the street, he started shouting.

"Great victory... great victory... General Zhaoyong led his army to regain Xuanfu... Tuotuo Buhua had no choice but to seek peace!"

"Great victory... great victory... Xuanfu has been restored... Xuanfu has been restored!"

As several knights galloped down the street and shouted, their voices were heard throughout the street.

"A great victory?"

After the people on the street heard the knight's shout, many people looked at each other and immediately became ecstatic.

Since the fall of Tongguan, the atmosphere in the entire Shenjing has become inexplicably depressed. The fear is that one day the Mongolian Tatars will suddenly appear in Shenjing.

Well now, Master Jia Yu defeated the Tatars, and the Tatars asked for peace.

…………

At the same time, in Wenyuan Pavilion
  The elders have never felt such a headache.

It's not right for these guest troops to stay in the capital, nor is it right to send them back to their place of origin.

Fortunately, Emperor Changping issued an order to stop King Qin some time ago and let all the guest troops who have not yet arrived in the capital return to their place of defense immediately. Otherwise, there will be more guest troops coming. By then, hundreds of thousands of troops will gather in the capital, which will be fatal. .

Silver...silver...

Nowadays, the minds of several pavilion elders are all flashing with the light of silver. Whoever can get them millions of taels of silver at this time will be their biological father.

Just when the elders were getting older, they heard a crisp sound of "bang", the door was pushed open, and a seventh-grade official in a green robe burst in panting. Before the elders could speak, He yelled excitedly.

"My lords, there is news from the front line. General Jia regained Xuanfu a few days ago.

He also led an army to the royal court and captured Ke Dun of Totu Buhua and a group of Mongolian nobles. Now Totu Buhua has taken the lead to cease the war and sue for peace to the court! "

"what……"

“The Mongols sued for peace?”

This news was like a bomb exploding in the hall, shocking everyone to the point of being speechless for a moment.

Jian Desan glared and shouted: "You have to think clearly, lying about military information will result in beheading!"

"Who...who lied about the military situation."

This seventh-grade official was a hard-nosed man, and his eyes widened when he heard this: "The messenger who came to report the message is still waiting for His Majesty's summons in the Huangji Palace. Who dares to lie about military information on such a matter!"

Wang Zhijie didn't care to say anything else. He almost jumped off the couch, hurriedly put on his shoes and shouted to everyone: "Quick... follow me to see your Majesty right away!"

Jia Yu led his troops to regain Xuan Mansion, and the news that Tuo Tuo Bu Hua had no choice but to send people to sue for peace quickly spread throughout the capital like a whirlwind.

When Emperor Changping learned the news, he was reviewing the memorial in the imperial study, while Queen Bai sat aside and brought the washed fruit to his mouth.

When the eunuch who reported the news read to him the news that Jia Yu had regained Xuanfu, Emperor Changping opened his mouth so wide that he did not even notice that the half-eaten apple fell to the ground.

The White Queen's white and tender little hands were also raised in the air, and her delicate face maintained a shocked expression for a while.

After a long time, he looked at Emperor Changping and asked in disbelief: "Your Majesty... I seem to have heard that Jia Yu has recovered Xuanfu?"

"If there's nothing wrong with my ears, it should be like this."

Emperor Changping murmured somewhat dullly, and suddenly shouted to the eunuch who reported the news: "What are you doing standing still? Why don't you quickly bring Jia Aiqing's letter to me?"

"Here!"

The eunuch who reported the news raised the fold above his head. Dai Quan behind him was about to take it, but was pushed away by Emperor Changping. He then snatched the fold away, tore it open and read every line.

He burst out laughing just halfway through.

"Great... I knew that Jia Aiqing would not let me down... He really did it!
  Tuotuobuhua...you too will have today! "

Just smiling, Emperor Changping sat down on his chair, tears suddenly flashing in his eyes.

Looking at her husband who was a little embarrassed, the White Queen silently took out her handkerchief and gently wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes.

As a wife, she certainly knew how heavy the pressure was on Emperor Changping these days.

Tuotuo Buhua led a hundred thousand Mongolian troops to capture more than a dozen cities including Xuanfu and Tongguan one after another, and directed his troops towards Shenjing.

In Liaodong, Nurhachi personally led a large army to completely surround Shenyang City. The Liaodong Army led by Wang Anzai Division of Xining County also obeyed his instructions and refused to listen to his announcement.

One after another, these things all placed pressure on Emperor Changping's shoulders. If it were an ordinary person, he would have collapsed long ago.

That is to say, Emperor Changping carried it with great perseverance, but only Queen Bai knew that even in his deep sleep, her husband was already frowning.

It's better now... Xuanfu has been restored, and Tuotuo Buhua has taken the initiative to seek peace. This means that half of the pressure has been relieved. As long as the court is free, the problem in Liaodong can be solved.

After being happy, Emperor Changping quickly ordered: "Dai Quan...hurry up and send someone to Wangge Lao and the others..."

Before he finished speaking, a eunuch came over to report: "Your Majesty, Mr. Wang Ge, Mr. Jian Ge and Mr. Yang Ge have arrived outside the palace, asking to see Your Majesty!"

"Haha... This is really about Cao Cao, Cao Cao is here."

Emperor Changping laughed and said, "Quickly announce their presence."

"Here!"

After Wang Zhijie and several other pavilion elders entered the imperial study, they all bowed to Emperor Changping.

"I wait to pay my respects to my emperor, long live my emperor, long live, long live, long live!"

"All my beloved ministers are free of ceremony, and Dai Quan...shows their seats to the beloved ministers."

Emperor Changping waved his hand, and Dai Quan on the side quickly motioned to the young eunuch to bring them brocade stools.

However, Wang Zhijie and others did not sit down. Instead, they bowed to Emperor Changping again and said, "Congratulations to Your Majesty, Your Majesty! Our army finally defeated the Mongolian Tatars and regained our land!"                                    Haha... I'm so happy!

Emperor Changping's thin lips, which were always pursed in the past, showed a rare smile, "I can't achieve such a great victory in Daxia without the efforts of all my ministers.

Now Tuo Tuo Bu Hua has finally surrendered and prayed to me for peace. I wonder how you ministers can teach me? "

Wang Zhijie hurriedly said: "So that your majesty will know that the old minister believes that since the Mongols have surrendered, in order to avoid long nights and dreams, we must quickly send an envoy to Xuanda, and the two sides will discuss a result that is acceptable to both sides.

In this way, the war in Xuanzhen area can be calmed down as soon as possible and the people can rebuild their homes. "

"Well!"

Emperor Changping nodded noncommittally and asked, "I wonder what the rules of the peace talks are, sir?"

Wang Zhijie thought for a while: "I think that as long as Tuotuo Buhua withdraws from our territory in Daxia, everything else can be discussed. As for how to talk, the specific decision can only be made after meeting with Tuotuo Buhua."

After listening to Wang Zhijie's words, Emperor Changping thought for a long time and frowned: "This time the Mongols invaded our territory. If we let them go so easily, wouldn't it be too easy for them?"

Wang Zhijie smiled bitterly and said: "Your Majesty... I have also seen the excerpts sent by Jia Yu. Although Jia Yu went there and annihilated tens of thousands of people in Totuo Buhua, he still has [-] troops in his hands now.

If Tuotuo hadn't been careful and led an army of [-] people on a starry night journey, it would have taken less than six or seven days to reach the city of Shenjing. And no matter how hard Jia Yu was able to fight, his troops would only be a little over [-], and almost all of them would be infantry. Death.

As long as Tuo Tuo Bu Hua is determined to run away, Jia Yu will not be able to catch up with him no matter what. Therefore, according to Lao Chen, the most important thing is to negotiate peace with Tuo Tuo Bu Hua as soon as possible. "

Emperor Changping stopped talking. Although Wang Zhijie's words were a bit unpleasant, they still made sense.

Although Jia Yu said last time that he captured more than [-] horses, this does not mean that more than [-] more cavalry will be available immediately.

You know, in the era of cold weapons, cavalry was the most expensive thing.

The cost of raising one cavalry alone was enough to feed six or seven infantry.

Not to mention purchasing a full set of armor, horse gear, and weapons for a cavalryman, just the food that a war horse eats every day is not something that ordinary people can afford.

Not to mention that the war horse just gnaws on the grass every day is enough.

Of course, if you just eat grass, you won't starve to death, but the war horses raised in this way cannot maintain their physical strength, and they cannot march and fight.

Under normal circumstances, in order to maintain physical strength, war horses are usually fed mixed fodder, which is usually a mixture of fine hay (straw and wheat straw), oats, black beans, and salt. Some even mix it with eggs and feed it. Ensure that the war horses have adequate nutrition.

Therefore, if you want to maintain a large-scale cavalry, you need to consume quite a lot of material and financial resources.

This is why in the huge Xia Dynasty, except for Liaodong, it is almost impossible to find a cavalry team with more than [-] people.

This was not only due to the lack of war horses, but more importantly, the cost of establishing large-scale cavalry was too great, and the court could not afford to support it.

After hearing the difficulties raised by Wang Zhijie, Emperor Changping also fell silent.

Although he has never led soldiers, he also knows that in this era, the advantage of cavalry over infantry is almost crushing.

Although he didn't know how Jia Yu led an army of more than [-] to win a battle and regain Xuanda, he knew it very well.

Although Tuo Tuo Buhua has sent people to sue for peace now, if Tuo Tuo Buhua wants to run away, no one can catch up with him.

After a long silence, Emperor Changping sighed softly: "Well, in that case, let's follow what Aiqing said.

However, I still have something to say upfront. There are several points that must be paid attention to in this peace negotiation.

First: Totuo Buhua and all Mongols must withdraw from Daxia territory. "

Second: The Mongolian invasion to the south has caused extremely serious losses to Daxia, so they must compensate us. As for the amount of compensation, Aiqing and others can consider it.

Third: Tuotuo Buhua must ensure that we will not invade our Daxia territory without any reason in the future.

Tuo Tuo Bu Hua must agree to the above points. If you don't want to take off the fight, then keep fighting.

I just want to see how long I can last without taking off my clothes! "

Having said this, a hint of coldness flashed between Emperor Changping's brows.

"I will obey your Majesty's will." Wang Zhijie and others quickly bowed and agreed.

Now, Emperor Changping has drawn a rough outline, and Wang Zhijie and others have to fill in the rest.

However, these are details and can be discussed slowly after negotiations.

This time, the Daxia court also acted very quickly. The day after receiving the good news, the delegation responsible for negotiations headed by Wang Zhijie set out.

The delegation hurriedly and slowly arrived at Xuanfu on the tenth day...

Just as Wang Zhijie and his party were approaching Xuan Mansion, Jia Yu was playing horseback archery with Na Mu Zhong in the General Military Mansion.

After this period of in-depth understanding, Jia Yu discovered that Namuzhong, who was born as a nomad, was indeed outstanding in riding skills.

Both technically and physically, he is much stronger than Jia Yuanchun.

She could even fight Jia Yu to a close in the first two quarters of an hour, but only in the later stages would she retreat due to lack of physical strength.

But even so, it is much stronger than ordinary women.

After it was over, Namuzhong lay quietly in Jia Yu's arms, listening to the other person's strong heartbeat.

After a long time, Jia Yu said quietly: "The spies are here to report that our envoy will arrive tomorrow, and we will start the peace talks then."

Namuzhong's delicate body trembled slightly, and after a long time she asked quietly: "What about me, what are you going to do?"

Jia Yu said: "It can be seen that Tuo Tuo Bu Hua really cherishes you.

Qinggeltai asked me to take you back last time, but I refused.

In this negotiation between the two parties, Tuotuo Buhua will definitely put forward this condition again. "

Na Muzhong sat up and let the brocade quilt slip from his smooth shoulders, revealing the whiteness, but she ignored it and looked straight at Jia Yu and asked: "What about you? You have to promise him conditions?"

"I have no reason to stop it."

Jia Yu spread her hands and said, "You are a naked Ke Dun. Asking for you is a matter of course. I have no reason to refuse him."

Namuzhong asked angrily: "If that's the case, then why did you forcefully take over my body in the first place?"

"Because I can't help myself, even a stone can't resist your beauty." At this time, Jia Yu gave full play to the talent in man's genes for smooth words when facing women.

"You are honest." Namuzhong laughed angrily at Jia Yu.

But after laughing, her tears began to flow down, and she couldn't help but beat him randomly with her fists. As they continued to fight, the two sides started another war...
