Chapter 616

In the middle of the night, Tang Yin sat alone in the tent, thinking about whether his side should continue to fight the war. Now, his confidence has begun to waver. At this time, a bodyguard recently reported that Yuan Fang asked to see him. Tang Yin said, "let him come in."

The bodyguard turned to go out. It was not long before Yuan Fang stepped into the account. Seeing Yuan Fang, Tang Yin smiles and asks with ease, "Mr. Yuan Fang, I haven't slept so late"

"Wei Chen came to visit the king specially." Yuan Fang came forward, respectfully and deeply, and said in a low voice.

"I'm fine. I can still afford a little defeat." Tang Yin said with a smile. After a pause, he waved his hand and said, "Mr. Yuan Fang, please have a seat."

Yuan Fang answered and sat down beside Tang Yin. The latter asked, "Mr. Yuan Fang, can our army win this war?"

"This," Yuan Fang pondered, shook his head and said, "the military affairs are closely related to the life and death of the country, so I dare not speculate."

"Ah?" Tang Yin looked up and chuckled and said, "it's no harm to talk about your opinions in private. Mr. Yuan Fang, please tell me."

Yuan Fang thought thoughtfully for a moment, and Fang zhengse said: "since entering Hedong, our army has been victorious and has occupied the whole Hedong county. The morale of the officers and men is high. In contrast, the Ningjun army is seriously injured, and there is a shortage of short generals in the army. In terms of frontal combat, our army has an absolute advantage. I think this is the reason why the king is not willing to give up the war"

this Speaking of Tang Yin's heart, if it was a direct confrontation on land, Tang Yin was confident that he would annihilate more than 100000 troops in the western part of Ningguo. Such a big Ningguo, such a big piece of fat meat, was blocked by a Zhanghe River. Tang Yin was really unwilling. He said with a calm smile, "keep going."

"No matter how much superiority our army has, no matter how unwilling the king is, Wei Chen feels that this war can not be fought again." Yuan Fang said: "in fact, for Ningguo, Zhanghe is as dangerous as Tongmen. Fengguo relies on Tongmen to attack, retreat, and remain invincible. The same is true of Ningguo. As early as when Fengning and Tongmen were at war, Zhanghe was regarded as the bottom line of Ningguo. From that time on, Ningguo had built warships and trained more than 100 Navy troops in Zhanghe Over the past years, we have not dared to neglect one day. Although there are not many troops in Ning army, there are countless warships, and the water army is also very good at water fighting. This is exactly the weakness of our Feng army. If the king wants to cross the Zhanghe River by force, he will treat the Ning army with the strength of our army and be afraid that the whole army will be destroyed in the end. "

"Oh," said Tang Yin, looking up in silence. It turns out that Ningguo is also farsighted and takes relevant precautions. No wonder Ningjun has put together so many large warships in such a short period of time. After pondering for a while, he stood up and paced back and forth in the tent. As he walked, his mind turned sharply. He murmured, "what Mr. Yuan Fang said is also reasonable."

Looking at Tang Yin who was struggling in his heart, Yuan Fang sighed. He suddenly thought of something and asked, "by the way, Wei Chen still wants to ask the king how to bury the soldiers who died in the war today?"

"The dust returns to the dust, and the soil returns to the earth. Naturally, the strong men of the Feng state should be sent back to the Fengguo to be buried."

"What about Ning people in the army?"

Tang Yin raised his eyebrows, shook his head and said, "I haven't thought about it yet. What's Mr. Yuan Fang's suggestion?"

Yuan Fang said: "the king should not only treat the dead soldiers equally, but also bury the soldiers of Ningji nationality."

Seeing Tang Yin showing a puzzled look, Yuan Fang explained: "as a Ningren, it takes not only great determination but also great courage to join the Feng army and help the Fengguo and fight our own country. If the king wants to have a long-term peace and stability in Hedong, and if he wants to win the support of Ningren people in Hedong, he should treat Ningren well and treat Ningji soldiers with kindness. People should feel that in the king's mind, there is no distinction between Fengren and Ningren. "

Yo! This is what Tang Yin didn't expect. After careful consideration, he thought that what Yuan Fang said was very reasonable. As the saying goes, those who win the support of the people will win the world. Even if he pretends, he has to pretend. His face finally showed a smile from the heart, went to Yuan Fang's close relatives, and gave him a deep bow.

Yuan Fang was startled. It was always the ministers who gave gifts to the king. There was no reason for the king to salute his ministers. He sat on the collapse for a long time before he regained his mind. Instead of standing up, he knelt down from the collapse and kowtowed: "what is your majesty doing?

Tang Yin reached out to help Yuan Fang up and said with a smile: "what Mr. Yuan Fang taught me is that since Hedong has returned to Fengguo, the people in Hedong are the people of Fengguo. I should treat them equally, and there should be no distinction between high and low."

Looking at Tang Yin with an open-minded and educated face, Yuan Fang has a trace of frustration in his eyes. He had to admit that he couldn't see through Tang Yin, and he didn't know what he was thinking. Tang Yin's character was too changeable, sometimes fierce and cunning, sometimes generous and benevolent, sometimes ruthless, sometimes gentle and kind. It's hard to imagine that there are so many different or even completely opposite personalities in a person, and this person is only a young man in his twenties 。

Tang Yin took Yuan Fang's advice and ordered them to go down early the next morning to bury those Ningji soldiers who died in the battle of crossing the river. He also offered his family double the pension and exempted them from 40% tax. This kind of treatment is absolutely generous enough. Tang Yin's practice has won a lot of public praise in Hedong Ning people, and also made the ningese people completely calm down.People are most worried about whether they will be oppressed by Fengren and become servants after the change of ownership in Hedong. However, according to Tang Yin's performance to the soldiers of Ningji who were killed in the war, such concerns seem to be unnecessary. The monarch of Fengguo not only did not bully them, but also treated them very kindly. As a result, people's belief of continuing to settle down in Hedong was much stronger than before 。

If Tang Yin is a layman, he may not have much talent in this respect. However, he has a great advantage, that is, he has the modern people's openness, which enables him to distinguish which opinions are suitable for him and which are not beneficial and harmful to him. In the view of those who do not know the inside story, Tang Yin has become a world with insight and can distinguish right from wrong A rare Mingzhu.

Tang Yin accepted Yuan Fang's opinion of being kind to Ningji soldiers, but he was still hesitant about whether to withdraw or not. Now Tang Yin is in a dilemma. He has already called out the slogan of miening. It is too bad for him to suspend the war without a sound. However, if he continues to fight, he is afraid that his army will end up in total annihilation.

When he was in great difficulty, an unexpected opportunity came. The peace making envoys sent by the Ningguo government crossed the Zhanghe River and came to Fengying to discuss peace talks between the two countries.

On the matter of making peace with the wind, President sun Yuanhong strongly opposes it. What is his purpose of fighting hard in front of him? In order to expel the wind thieves and recover the lost land in Hedong, the imperial court, far away from the battlefield and in the rear, even with a stroke of pen, ceded the huge Hedong county directly to Fengguo, recognizing that Hedong was the territory of Fengguo. Not only that, it also compensated Fengguo with a large amount of gold, silver and silk. This is not only a negotiation, but also a submission to Fengguo.

Chang sun Yuanhong couldn't understand why the court made such a self humiliating decision. It was clear that he had not lost the battle, and there was hope of a counter offensive back to Hedong. But now the court's peace talks have made all his efforts useless.

He could not understand the decision of the imperial court. Wei Zheng could not help but look up to the sky and sighed: "comfortable! I'd rather lose in the word of ease The long years of ease made the court of Ningguo think highly of themselves inside and outside. When they met with setbacks, they panicked up and down, and they were not in danger.

At this time, two seemingly identical marshals, sun Yuanhong and Wei Zheng, returned to the same front and firmly opposed to peace talks. According to Wei Zheng's intention, if a peace envoy wants to cross the Zhanghe River, he must pass by his own camp. At that time, his side will forcibly detain him and not allow him to cross the river. In this way, there will be no negotiation.

At the critical moment, Wei Zheng was so tough that he even dared to disobey the will of the imperial court and forced to detain the envoys for the felony of beheading his head. This surprised and admired him. However, he did not agree with Wei Zheng's idea. It was really impossible to force the envoys sent by the imperial court. Now it is not at the end of the mountain and there is no need for it Take such a big risk.

Chairman Sun Yuanhong decided to play a trick and make good use of this envoy.

Ningguo sent two envoys to discuss peace. They were the subordinates of dahonglu, whose rank was three grades. The main function of honglucheng was foreign affairs. The two men were named Shi Tinghan and Qin Yi respectively. In this negotiation, Shi Tinghan was the main one and Qin was the second.

As predicted by Wei Zheng, Shi Tinghan and Qin were indeed the first to arrive at Ningjun camp.

As soon as they arrived outside the camp of Ning army, they felt that there was something wrong with the atmosphere. The soldiers on guard and patrolling were all listless. They looked at each other with sad faces. Their helmets were crooked and their weapons were not carried, but they could not carry them. Even if Shi Tinghan and Qin were also civil servants, we could see that the military discipline of their soldiers was too loose.

The two looked at each other and walked towards the camp.

Just before the Yuanmen, Ning soldiers around him rushed up and stopped them and more than a hundred followers behind them. He said, "what are you doing? If you know where this is, you should rush into it "

" blind your dog's eyes, see clearly, these two are the envoys of peace sent by the imperial court, Lord Shi and Lord Qin, get out of the way and ask your commander to come out to meet you! " Stone listen to cold and Qin also brought the attendant tone to scold the way.

On hearing that they were envoys sent by the imperial court, the soldiers were shocked and looked awed. One of the small heads hung his head and said in a trembling voice, "I'm afraid my Marshal can't come out to meet the two adults."
