Wei Wuhou

Chapter 620 Difficult Negotiations

(How should I put it, I took a car all the way to my hometown yesterday, and I just updated it now!!)

Early the next morning, Zhou Jiao reappeared outside the Wei army camp with the Qi mission.

This time Zhou Jiao still stood upright, and his momentum was not much weaker than yesterday.

Today Wei Wuji and others did not come out to greet him, so Zhou Jiao and his party could only go in by themselves.

This is undoubtedly another blow to the morale of the entire Qi State mission, and Wei State has paid homage to the victor's posture.

Of course, everyone in Qi State knew that Wei Wuji's arrangement was Wei Wuji's arrangement.

Sure enough, after more than a dozen of them entered the military tent, they saw Wei Wuji himself sitting on the only seat at the top of the military tent.

The other officials of Wei State sat on the left side of Wei Wuji, leaving the right side empty.

Zhou Jiao was naturally very upset about this. Wei Wuji himself sat at the head, which did not put Qi State in the position of a subordinate.

So Zhou Jiao stopped and stood at the door of the military tent and said, "Mr. Wu Yang, Qi and Wei are both big countries, so we should discuss matters on an equal footing!"

"In this top position, I think it's better for no one to sit there!" Zhou Jiao said unhurriedly.

Naturally, he was not in a hurry at this time, because he had received a report last night that Qin and Chu had already begun to mobilize troops after the beginning of spring, and the time to send troops again must not be far away.

Therefore, at this time, Zhou Jiao will have the confidence to ask Wei Wuji, otherwise the matter of ranking will pass.

"The purpose of the peace negotiation is to eliminate the war. Does Wei Guo still want to continue to fight with the three kingdoms of Qi, Chu and Qin at the same time?" Zhou Jiao went further.

In this sentence, the meaning of threat becomes stronger.

But what Zhou Jiao didn't know was true. Wei Wuji had learned about the situation on the front line of Changping Pass a few days ago, so the two kingdoms of Qin and Chu that Zhou Jiao talked about didn't shock him much.

When he heard that Zhou Jiao used Qin and Chu to suppress him, Wei Wuji even wanted to laugh in his heart.
Therefore, Wei Wuji replied directly: "According to the intention of the Qi envoy, today's collegial meeting cannot be discussed?"

These words made everyone in the military camp change their expressions. Apart from Qi people, the officials of Wei country including Qu Weidao also looked at Wei Wuji in surprise.

Wei State now needs to withdraw from Qi State. If Wei Wuji goes on like this, who knows when this collegial agreement will end.

Qu Weidao and the others were about to come out to speak, but under Wei Wuji's murderous eyes, they could only keep their words in their mouths.

Being choked by Wei Wuji, Zhou Jiao sneered at this moment: "The elimination of military affairs is beneficial to all peoples, so this peace negotiation must go on!"

Everyone in the Qi Kingdom heard this, but they felt very uncomfortable. This is really begging for peace!Wei Wuji was arrogant and domineering, but they still had to negotiate.

But everyone in Wei State was relieved at this time, and the Qi State people finally gave in.

At this time, they couldn't help admiring Wei Wuji, this man really held the fate of Qi State.

The reason why Wei Wuji was able to control the Qi people so easily was thanks to Zhou Jiao's self-reported family history yesterday.Knowing that this man's fief is still in the Wei State-occupied area, Wei Wuji is not afraid of him jumping up.

He still has a good understanding of the thinking of such aristocrats, and they can do anything for their own benefit.And Qi Jun Tian Yuwen sent these people here, which in itself also shows that the court of Qi State is now the world of the aristocratic family.

Subsequently, with the atmosphere at the scene somewhat stiff, the first peace talks between the two countries officially started.

But at the beginning, Qi State was furious at the "rude" request made by Wei State.

The ceding of Yuan County and the demand for a large amount of food compensation is unacceptable to the people of Qi.

But this is exactly what the mainstream in the court of Wei State means. They think that they should take the opportunity to weaken Qi State vigorously so that this old enemy can be abolished.

Therefore, Wei Wuji himself did not say a word in the specific negotiations.This kind of matter that involves fundamental interests cannot be changed by him.

It is impossible for the Qi people to agree to these conditions, so the current negotiation is nothing more than a meaningless battle of words, and it is impossible to negotiate any results.

Therefore, Wei Wuji even felt a little drowsy when he heard it later, and he really fell asleep in the end.

The Wu'an family arranged Wei Wuji here for the purpose of distracting him, it doesn't matter whether Wei Wuji is present or not in the negotiation.

As for Wei Wuji taking the initiative to fight against the Qi people yesterday and today, that was the only thing he could do to spread his reputation.

After all, if he was really unknown in the negotiations between Qi and Wei, wouldn't it be a waste of time.

Wei Wuji fell asleep on the negotiating table, but the verbal swords on the left and right did not stop, they both wanted to fight for and protect their own interests.

At this time, Qu Weidao also showed a completely different side from Heping. He looked like an enraged tiger and leopard, choking the Qi State's prince on the opposite side to death.

In the end, no one could convince anyone after arguing for a long time, except for the two big heads of land cut and grain payment, even some other small subsidiary requirements failed to reach an agreement.

When it was finally over, the envoys of Qi State left the meeting angrily, and Wei Wuji also opened his eyes after they left.

In fact, when the negotiation came to an end, Wei Wuji didn't sleep.

"Young master, this old man is really stubborn, you should kill his prestige just now!" Qu Weidao was also a little angry.

Wei Wuji shook his head, and then said: "The negotiation has just begun, why are you so anxious..."

Qu Weidao didn't expect this young master to say such words, shouldn't this one be violent on the spot and embarrass those Qi people?
As an experienced diplomat, Qu Weidao certainly knew that negotiations would be a long-term affair, and he just wanted to persuade Wei Wuji to help.

Fortunately, Wei Wuji has a clear understanding of the most essential problem in this matter, and knows that it is difficult for him to change the bottom line of Qi people.

Therefore, Wei Wuji said again at this time: "It will be difficult for the people of Qi to cede the land..."

That is a whole county, and it is also the seat of many nobles of Qi State, how could they give up.

Standing up, Wei Wuji walked to Qu Weidao's side, patted him on the shoulder and said, "There is still a long time ahead, let's talk slowly!"

Afterwards, Wei Wuji left the big tent first, leaving everyone in the military tent thinking hard.

But for Wei Wuji, this time can't be wasted like this. Compared with negotiating... the Xiangping camp is undoubtedly more attractive to him.

And Wei Wuji also heard that his third brother will be back in two days, and this is his home stadium.

But Wei Wuji was not prepared to back down this time. If he wanted to strengthen his presence in the Xiangping camp, he was destined to have a fight with Wei Jianlin.

Facing this boring negotiation with no idea when it will be concluded, Wei Wuji even looked forward to the arrival of his third brother even more.
