Chapter 68, Defeat and Negotiation
In fact, when the younger brother of the whole Yu of Silla sought the throne, what he said to the elders and ministers of the country was that after Quan Zhiyu entered the Han Dynasty, he signed various treaties with the Han Dynasty, thus betraying the national sovereignty. She did not have the ability to inform this country that she would only turn Silla into a puppet of the Han Dynasty.
So he detained Quan Zhiyu, controlled the important people who supported Quan Zhiyu, and robbed the throne. After Quan Zhiyu escaped, he said that Quan Zhiyu had died. In order to avenge Quan Zhiyu, the Han Dynasty would definitely lead troops to attack, so he gathered the troops of the whole country and defended Kyoto with all his strength. Naturally, the important force was to defend the first fortress. As long as it was defended there, Kyoto would naturally be nothing wrong. In order to get the help of Goguryeo's beast forces, the new king sold the sovereignty of many countries, including providing Goguryeo with less unique products, such as beef, milk, etc. Goguli really agreed and sent their beast troops to help King Silla.
The young general's family has always been the main armed force of Silla. Now that the Han Dynasty is about to invade Silla, he naturally assumed the position of commander and commanded the army to resist the Han Dynasty army. At the same time, he also hated the Han Dynasty people and thought that they had killed the whole starvation.
It was not until this moment that he saw Quan Zhiyu and heard Quan Zhiyu call out his name that he realized that he was happy as a new king, and Quan Zhiyu did not die at all, so in order not to hurt Quan Zhiyu, he decisively withdrew his troops, which created an opportunity for Zu Zhao and others to retreat.
The uncertain decisive factor that Su De said is naturally the whole cause of the queen of Silla. If it is not for her appearance, the Silla generals will definitely continue to cooperate with this Goguryeo beast troops to attack Zu Zhao's army. At that time, Zu Zhao, Zu Zhao and Meng don't know if they can escape.
Zu Zhao was also shocked when he heard the story of Quan Zhiyu and Zhang Yuan in the camp. He looked at Quan Zhiyu and said, "Maybe the military division didn't think that you were the uncertain decisive factor. Previously, I thought that the beast army belonged to your Silla, but it turned out to be Goguryeo. I didn't expect that there would be such a beast army in Goguryeo. It is not recorded in the history textbook.
"What? Calendar textbook? What history textbook?" Zhang Yuan and Quan Zhiyu asked puzzledly.
Z Zhao realized that he had traveled through time again. At that time, there were documents recording various things about the previous dynasty, but it should not be the era when people studied history. At least they did not have any history textbooks. He said quietly, "What I said casually is the literature. There is no record of such an army in Goguryeo in the documents of the Han Dynasty.
Zhang Yuan couldn't help sighing after hearing this: "Yes, we actually know very little about external celebrities. Although the imperial court has been sending people to the Western Regions to deal with many countries over the years, it knows too little about them after all."
Quan Zhiyu said, "Now that they are defending the fortress, it is impossible to break through the fortress there. What should we do? The most important thing is that they still have beast troops, and we can't deal with them at all. Why don't I persuade General Silla to surrender? Maybe he will listen to me and not resist us.
Zu Zhao just heard Quan Zhiyu talk about her and the Silla general, and there has been a trace of jealousy in his heart. When he came here, did he just watch the woman fall in love and let him go? This is really unbearable. However, for the sake of the overall situation, he still agreed to persuade Quan Zhiyu, but he proposed that he must not agree to marry the Silla general, at least after he helped investigate.
Zhang Yuan naturally recognized the meaning of Zu Zhao's words. He knew that Zu Zhao was in love with the whole world, but he just smiled in his heart for a while, but nothing showed on his face. However, Quan Zhiyu did not seem to hear the meaning of Zu Zhao's words at all, but said seriously, "No matter what the purpose is, I will not marry him. My political philosophy is completely different from his. I just want to marry you, and I'm about to have a baby for you."
She said such words in front of Zhang Yuan and a group of deputy generals. Zu Zhao couldn't help coughing violently, while Zhang Yuan and other deputy generals looked at each other and couldn't help laughing. Some people were afraid of losing their temper in front of Zu Zhao. After Quan Zhiyu finished speaking, they immediately took the initiative to ask for orders out with a smile. Lead a patrol and sentry. Before Zu Zhao could answer, they had already left the camp.
Zu Zhao looked at Zhang Yuan and others helplessly and said to Quan Zhiyu, "That's fine. When my army arrives, we will show the power of our army in front of them and let them see the momentum of my army. At that time, you can persuade him to do what kind of protectors in the future. In short, it is the kind that is very privileged. Let's do both soft and hard to see how he will choose, such as If they don't agree to let us go, we will think about it and pass quickly. If it rains again or something, once the beast troops launch an attack first, we will be finished.
Naturally, he only said this to Quan Zhiyu, Zhang Yuan and others. For the large army behind, he must tell them that the enemy has beasts, but he must let them know that the beasts can be defeated, but they can't say endless words in front of the soldiers. Fighting the morale and morale are the most important thing.
As for how to fight against the enemy's beasts and how to attack the enemy's fortress, this problem is now a problem that plagues Zu Zhao. He knew what Su De said that only he could solve it, but now it seems that there is really nothing he can do to fight against the beasts.
At dusk, suddenly a soldier came to report the arrival of the messenger of Silla. Zu Zhao arranged for all the generals and vice generals to gather in the camp to let everyone win. He must not let the messengers see any great loss of morale after the first battle, but to let him go back to report to the commander of Silla that the momentum of the Han Dynasty army was not hit at all.
After the messenger came in, he did not salute. He directly told Zu Zhao and other generals in poor Chinese, saying that General Silla asked him to send a message and let go of the Queen of Silla. At that time, the Han army could retreat smoothly, and they would not launch a fierce attack. Otherwise, the Han army would definitely be completely overthrown this time. No.
Zu Zhao sneered and scolded, "Go and tell the general that he is now helping Zhou to abuse. If he knew each other, he would have surrender earlier. Otherwise, when our army arrives and the Queen of Silla ascends the throne first, it will be the end of these people, and they will all be punished for treason."
The believer said, "My information has been sent, and I can't control what you want to do." After saying that, he immediately turned around and went out arrogantly. A deputy general couldn't bear it. He pulled out his knife and shouted, "What a rude messenger. I will cut your head and sacrifice our flag with your blood."
When the messenger heard this, he immediately turned around, his throat moved, and looked at the deputy nervously. Stop and let him go." Zu Zhao persuaded the vice general and said to the messenger, "Try to tell your general that Queen Silla will talk to him in person another day, so that he can figure out whether to give way or not, otherwise one will stay on the day when the army breaks the city."
The messenger was shocked, but still pretended to be calm, still snorted rudely, and turned around and left Zu Zhao's barracks. Watching the messenger go out, the deputy put the knife back into the scabbard and said, "Such a rude man, general, why don't you let me cut him?"
Zu Zhao said indifferently, "The two armies meet and don't cut off. If he loves to be rude, he will let him go rudely. When the army enters the city, if he is destined to see it, let him see what is the generosity and grandeur of the country of etiquette. Just ignore such a person completely."
Everyone admires Zu Zhao's feelings. In fact, Zu Zhao was also extremely angry in his heart. He was so rude that he really wanted to cut him off. However, after all, he is the messenger of Silla. He has to negotiate with the other party. If you can't fight this fortress, don't fight. Every soldier is raised by his mother's father, and there are people waiting for them to go back. If it hadn't been a last resort, he wouldn't have attacked these. However, this is an unchanging truth in troubled times, but I just want to reduce some casualties as much as possible. Today, nearly 1,000 strong troops have been lost in the First World War. If they continue to be depleted like this, I don't know how many soldiers will be sacrificed when they arrive in Kyoto.
A day later, Su De took the army to the front camp of the fortress and merged with Zu Zhao's army. He had already known Zhao Meng's injury and had a messenger to report it to him. At this moment, he was the first to visit Zhao Meng. According to the doctor's description, Zu Zhao's chest was seriously injured, and there were many broken bones in the chest. Fortunately, he is strong enough. Although he is seriously injured, if he can have good regulations, he can recover as before in less than half a year. If he is not well recuperated, he will be greatly affected in the future.
After listening to the doctor's words, Zu Zhao and Su De immediately decided to send a team of people to send Zhao Meng back immediately. Zu Zhao also specially repaired two letters, one for Cao Cao in Luoyang and one for Huangfu Song in Jizhou, hoping that they could help find Hua Tuo and let him go to Liaodong County to treat Zhao Meng in person. Hua Tuo is erratic and likes the doctor to travel around the sea. The last time he met, he invited him to drink tea, and then he also spread some of himself, or told him some of them, but he was talking on paper, and Hua Tuo was practical.
Now, as long as he finds Hua Tuo's location, he will never refuse to come to Liaodong County to save people. However, now that Zu Zhaoren is in Xinluo, he can't go back to arrange it in person, so he can only ask Huangfu Song and Cao Cao for help.
Although Cao Cao's official position is not big now, this guy is very good at dealing with people. He has a good eloquence and a good relationship. There are still many true and fake friends in the court. Now he will not refuse to ask Cao Cao for help, not to mention Huang Fu Song. Friends all over the world. Last time, Zhao Meng led troops to help him calm the chaos. Now that Zhao Meng is injured, he will definitely do his best. However, during the days when he can't find Hua Tuo, he will definitely find the best doctor to treat Zhao Meng.
Su De also said that Zhao Meng should be sent back as soon as possible. He can't say that it will rain on the way back to Liaodong for three days. He must be sent back quickly. He can't be delayed for too long on the road, otherwise it will be difficult to drive, which is unfavorable to Zhao Meng's condition.
Zu Zhao nodded and immediately sent Zhao Meng back with a team of 100 people, and two light soldiers were sent to find Cao Cao and Huangfu Song day and night. If Zhao Meng answered in Liaodong County, it would be the best. Zhao Meng's injury would be cured early.
Zhao Meng was sent away while still in a coma. Zu Zhao was sent away a few miles away. If it weren't for him, then he would have been sent back now. Fortunately, there is no life danger, otherwise if you lose a general like this, you will undoubtedly break an arm.
The next day, Quan Zhiyu came to the gate of the fortress under the protection of Zu Zhao's army and said that he wanted to talk to the general. Soon someone reported the news of Quan Zhiyu's conversation to the fortress general, that is, the person who wanted to marry Quan Zhiyu. He hurried to the tower and looked at the whole thing below, and he was very excited.
Quan Zhiyu did not have his excitement, but let him give up resistance. What her brothers did belonged to the conspiracy and would be beheaded, and his supporters would naturally be killed. If he can surrender and help her regain the throne, then make him the great general of Silla, the greatest hero of her return to the throne, and he will be the most powerful man at that time.
But the man said that he didn't want any general. He only wanted to marry Quan Zhiyu first. She could not be king and let Quan Zhiyu continue to be the queen. He just needed to be with him. Quan Zhiyu disagreed with the responsibility and almost said that she was already Zu Zhao's person. Fortunately, Zu Zhao knew that she would say so for a long time and immediately stopped her before she said it, so she did not let her say it.
Otherwise, the negotiation will definitely break down. People love you, but you love a foreign man. What's the reason? If you don't kill you, you won't be relieved. After persuasion for a long time, the man was finally a little moved, or he did not want to hurt the whole army. No one can guarantee it in the chaotic army.
