Zhu Youjian is actually sincere in negotiating peace, but he also wants to test Huang Taiji's sincerity!
Try it with four 24-pound black pot cannons - this is called sincerity within the range of the cannon!
If the 24 kilograms of explosive bombs fired by black pot artillery can't kill Huang Taiji (it's not that it doesn't hit, but it can't be killed if it hits), then Zhu Youjian is still willing to sincerely negotiate peace with Huang Taiji... even if it means ceding land. , payment, and marriage are all negotiable.
If four 24-pound explosive bombs blasted Huang Taiji to death, then Zhu Youjian would not be able to talk to Huang Taiji, and he would have to let Huang Taiji go down to talk to Zhu Yuanzhang.
But if you want to test Huang Taiji's sincerity, you have to ask him out of the camp... Only if you ask him out can he be bombarded!
What if Huang Taiji is not within the range of sincerity?
However, Zhu Youjian did not expect that Huang Taiji might not be able to feel his full sincerity, because he was not on the Jinzhou front line at all.
...
"Brother, Yuan Chonghuan sent an envoy and brought his personal letter!"
When Hauge was patrolling his newly established camp anxiously, his confidants Sony and Amin and his son came excitedly.
And it also brought unexpected news to Hauge.
"Yuan Chonghuan's envoy and personal letter?" Hauge asked, "What does he want to do?"
Sony smiled and said: "Of course the envoy is here to negotiate with us... I asked in person. The person who came is called Zukefa. He is the godson of Zu Dashou. He has the title of general. He means We need to discuss important matters affecting millions of people in both countries!"
"Millions of civilians?" Hauge hesitated, "Does Yuan Chonghuan want to...negotiate peace with us, Dajin?"
Amin smiled and said: "Maybe he wants to negotiate for peace... No wonder this Yuan Chonghuan is so fierce. He is trying to make peace through war."
Amin and Airli's father and son are still very good at "horse fighting". After they mounted the horse with the old Manchu with a blue flag, Yuan Chonghuan's pacesetter general could not do anything to them. So the two of them have now returned to the camp safely, only losing more than two thousand soldiers of the Xianglan Banner Han Army and Xianglan Banner Korean Army.
"Making peace through war?" Haug frowned, "This seems to be what we should do, right?"
After the Ming Dynasty captured Yanshan and established the three towns of Yanshan, Daning, and Liaoxi in the Yanshan and Liaoxi mountains, the situation of the Ming Dynasty and Jin Dynasty was completely reversed... The Later Jin Dynasty could not break through the Ming Dynasty's strategy in the mountainous area. Defense, and if Yanshan cannot be captured, there will be no way to move westward to the Bashang Grassland or southward to break through the Great Wall defense line.
Now Hou Jin is trapped east of Qianli Pine Forest and Yanshan Mountains. Although the territory was not small, it did not have much population to exploit, and it had to maintain a huge army to confront the Ming Dynasty.
So although Houjin looked quite glorious on the surface, he was actually in trouble.
Negotiating peace with the Ming Dynasty, obtaining benefits from the negotiation table, and stabilizing the territory of the Jin Kingdom became Huang Taiji's breakthrough direction.
Therefore, in the past two or three years, Huang Taiji tried to contact Yuan Chonghuan many times, hoping to open the door to peace negotiations.
However, Yuan Chonghuan was perfunctory and did not really promote the peace talks, so Huang Taiji had no choice but to bite the bullet and continue to fight.
Unexpectedly, Hauge, who pretended to be Huang Taiji and sent troops this time, found a door to peace negotiations!
"Where's the letter? Let me take a look." Although Hauge didn't believe it, he still wanted to read the letter first.
"The letter is still in Zukfa's hand," Airli said with a smile. "He said he would hand it over to the Great Khan himself."
"Hand it to the Great Khan in person?" Haug thought for a moment, "The Great Khan is not in Jinzhou, so how can we hand it over to him? How about we send him to the Kaiping front line?"
At this time, Huang Taiji was still encircling a point in the Jinlianchuan grassland to call for reinforcements. The point he was surrounding was Patma Hong's palace city of Kaiping City, and the reinforcement he wanted to fight was Concubine Wu Liangha who was stationed in Jining.
The importance of Jinlianchuan Grassland and Kaiping City cannot be overstated, so the Ming Dynasty who moved to Xuanfu and the Concubine Wu Liangha who stationed in Jining could not allow them to fall.
But they were not in a hurry to send troops to break the siege of Ping for two reasons. One is because Kaiping Castle is strong and has sufficient reserves, so it can last for a long time; the other is because both the Ming court and Concubine Wu Liangha believed that the main force of the Later Jin Dynasty was following Huang Taiji in western Liaoning.
Therefore, western Liaoning is the decisive battlefield. If the Ji Liao army can win, then the troops besieging Kaiping can only break away and leave. The Ming army only needs to follow and attack with elite cavalry to win.
If Liaoxi loses, Jinlianchuan Grassland will have to use heavy troops to find a place!
Therefore, when the victory in western Liaoning was still uncertain, the troops and horses placed by the Ming court and Prince Xin's palace in Xuanfu, Yanshan and the grassland all stood still.
And Hauge, Amin, Sony and others on the western Liaoning side all know that the western Liaoning side is just a virtual force, and Huang Taiji's goal is the Jinlianchuan Grassland and Kaiping City!
"This is not possible," Sony reminded Hauge. "The Ming Dynasty probably doesn't know that the Great Khan is in Kaiping... If they know, they will definitely use heavy troops on the grassland. Then the Great Khan will have It’s dangerous.”
If the big sweat is gone...does it have to be replaced with a new big sweat?
A very unfilial thought flashed through Hauge's mind. But it was just a fleeting moment... Hauge is a filial son after all, so he can't cheat on Amma like that!
If Qin Ama is tricked and Qin Ama gets angry, it’s hard to say whether Hauge will survive.
"Then what should we do?" Hauge also said honestly, "The Great Khan is not here...and we can't send Zukofa to Kaiping. We can't send Zukofa away, right?"
"Of course we can't just send him away," Sony said with a smile, "Brother, we can find someone to pretend to be the Khan!"
"Pretend? Who are you looking for?" Hauge looked around as he spoke, and then focused on Amin.
Only Amin looks like Huang Taiji! He's about the same age and quite fat.
"I can't," Amin shook his head quickly, "I can't pretend to be sweaty... stop wearing it!"
The last guy who pretended to be sweating is still recovering in Shenyang!
Amin doesn't intend to be Mang Gurtai's second.
"Then..." Hauge glanced at Sony again. This guy didn't look like him either.
"Brother," Sony said with a smile, "I just need to find someone... Anyway, Zuk Fa and Yuan Chonghuan have never seen Dahan. Just find someone who is about the same age and has a similar build!"
"Then who will preside over the negotiations?" Haug asked, "Who has the final say when the Great Khan is not here?"
"Of course it's you, the eldest brother," Sony said. "If the eldest brother can negotiate a good condition, the Great Khan will definitely be happy."
Amin also said: "The eldest brother is the eldest son of the Great Khan, so of course you, the eldest brother, will represent the Great Khan."
Hauge thought for a while and felt that he was the only one who could represent Khan Amar. He nodded: "Okay... you can find someone to pretend to be the Great Khan! Remember to find a slave with a dignified appearance and a magnificent weapon."
"嗻!"
Hauge's requirements are quite high, but it is not difficult for Sony, because Sony happens to know such a minion, Niu Lu Zhang Jingfan Wencai of the Han Army with a Yellow Flag.
...
Later, the Jin army camped in Jinzhou and had a large tent with a golden roof.
Zuk Kefa, who was a diplomat of four officials in his previous life, has no chance to upgrade in this life and has no choice but to stay the same and is "making a date" for Zhu Youjian!
He didn't recognize that Huang Taiji was a fake, so he poured out all the prepared remarks, "Tian Conghan, our Governor Yuan is very sincere in negotiating peace... You should know this. Yes, as early as the sixth year of Tianqi's death, he sent lamas and confidants to Shenyang to express condolences, and even negotiated with you. If you hadn't gone to fight North Korea on a whim, our two families would have negotiated long ago It’s done.
Fortunately, it's not too late... In the past few years, droughts and floods have continued in our country. Recently, there has been a locust plague in Shaanxi. Long live the Lord is busy with disaster relief, and I don't want to fight with you anymore. Governor Yuan's request for another peace negotiation was approved. However, because Tian Conghan had invaded North Korea regardless of the peace talks, Long Live Lord asked Governor Yuan to talk to you in front of the battle this time.
Of course, Governor Yuan and you are both rich and powerful...and Governor Yuan doesn't know Manchurian or Mongolian, and you don't know Cantonese, so Governor Yuan means that we can meet 300 steps apart. That's it. The following people will be responsible for the negotiation. You and Governor Yuan will watch each other from a distance. This can be regarded as a face-to-face interview. "
"Can you see a person's face clearly from 300 steps away?" Hauge sounded a little unreliable, so he asked.
"Yes!" Zukofa said with a smile, "You can use a telescope to see!"
