Two days later.
Two figures, one behind and one behind, landed outside Weinan City.
The Qin State was very cooperative this time and did not play any tricks. The next day, the two cities of Heyang and Wangcheng were handed over to the hands of the three Jin Dynasties.
At Qin's request, Zhao Kuo also retreated his army from Xiyi to Weinan to reduce the threat to Xianyang, the capital of Qin.
"Zhao Kuo and Tian Dan have met Lord Wu An and General Wang Lu."
Zhao Kuo and Tian Dan were waiting at the city gate. When they saw them, they immediately clasped their fists and saluted.
This was the first time Zhao Kuo saw Bai Qi up close. It was a little different from what he expected. There was no excitement and excitement when he first met Le Yi, but he was very calm.
"Bai Qi hasn't changed, it's just me." Zhao Kuo thought in his heart.
Half a year ago, he was just a second-generation general who was slightly famous in Handan. Now he has become famous all over the world, and his reputation even surpasses that of the Fourth Young Master of the Warring States Period and Wu'an Jun Bai Qi.
"Bai Qi and Wang He have met the general, Lord Du Ping." Bai Qi and Wang He also returned the greeting.
This is the case between nobles. No matter whether they are fighting alive or dead on the battlefield, or how many people have died on both sides, they must greet each other and respect each other after meeting.
"Where are the Marquis Ying and the Crown Prince?" After the ceremony, Bai Qi asked with a cold face.
"Yinghou is already waiting for you two in the city. Lord Wu'an can enter the city first to meet them." Zhao Kuo said.
"Hmph." Bai Qi snorted coldly, "Where are those two guys Le Yi and Lian Po?"
"They will be here soon." Zhao Kuo said.
Bai Qi did not enter the city, but chose to stand in front of the city gate with Zhao Kuo and wait for Le Yi and others.
"It seems that the conflict between Bai Qi and Fan Ju is not that big." Zhao Kuo thought secretly in his heart.
A person who is the first civil servant and a person who is the first military general are in conflict with each other. For Zhao Guo, it is obviously a good thing.
Coupled with this peace negotiation, Zhao must be given enough time to develop.
Not long after, four people, Le Yi, Lian Po, Wei Wuji, and Bao Yuan, descended from the sky and walked towards Zhao Kuo.
At this point, all generals from both sides with large army combat capabilities have arrived in Weinan.
The Qin State does not have to worry about the Three Jins taking the opportunity to attack their army in Hexi, and the Three Jins do not have to worry about the Qin State attacking them.
After a few greetings, they walked towards the city together.
…
In the Weinan County Mansion, Qin and Sanjin were divided into two rows and took their seats.
The three Jins took their seats very quickly. Zhao Kuo took the main seat, Wei Wuji took the second seat, and Bao Yuan, Lian Po, Le Yi, and Tian Dan followed in turn.
Instead, there was a problem with the Qin State on its own. Bai Qi, the king of Wu'an, Fan Ju, the prime minister, and Prince Zhu were all qualified to sit on the throne, and they all wanted to sit on the throne.
Prince Zhu glanced at Bai Qi and Ying Hou, without saying anything, he automatically quit and sat on the third seat.
Yinghou sighed in his heart, not wanting to be laughed at by everyone in the Three Jin Dynasties, he raised his hands and said: "Jun Wu An is the commander-in-chief of our Qin army, and he should sit at the top of the list."
Bai Qi looked at Yinghou in surprise, but sat down without rejecting him.
Then came the Yinghou Fan Ju, Tai Zi Zhu, Wang Lu, and Wang Sun Yiren.
There was silence, no one spoke, everyone looked at Fan Ju, including Bai Qi who was sitting in the main seat.
Fan Ju took a deep breath and said directly without any nonsense: "In this peace negotiation, our country, Qin, is willing to cede Shangdang, Sanchuan, and Hanoi to Zhao, Wei, and Han in exchange for the withdrawal of troops from the three countries."
"Korea has handed over Shangdang to our Zhao State and has nothing to do with the Qin State. In addition, Hedong has now been occupied by our three Jin Dynasties. Will Ying Hou still intend to let us withdraw? If the conditions of the Qin State are like this, then it is still See you on the battlefield." Zhao Kuo slammed the table and said loudly.
"What does Ma Fuzi mean?" Fan Ju said.
"The State of Qin ceded Hexi, Shangjun, and Nanyang. We will retreat." Zhao Kuo's lion said loudly.
"What about Hedong, Sanchuan, and Hanoi?" Fan Ju asked.
"We defeated that." Zhao Kuo said.
"Don't push yourself too far." Bai Qi said in a deep voice, and a terrifying chill instantly hit everyone.
"Believe it or not, we can conquer the three lands east of Hedong, and we can conquer the three lands west of Hexi." Zhao Kuo faced Mai Mang tit-for-tat, not giving in at all.
"If this is the case, then there is no need to talk. Let's see you on the battlefield." Bai Qi stood up and walked forward, and Fan Ju quickly pulled him back.
"Wu An, please calm down. Commander, let's take a step back..." Wei Wuji said with a smile, acting as a peacemaker.
...The four parties kept arguing until noon, and finally agreed on the result:
Shangdang belonged to Zhao State, Sanchuan belonged to South Korea, and Qin State returned the Nanyang land occupied by South Korea to South Korea.
Hanoi and Hedong belonged to the Wei State, and the Qin State returned the Nanyang land captured from the Wei State to the Wei State.
Because Zhao State contributed the most and gained the least in this war, in order to make up for Zhao State's losses, Wei State ceded Yecheng and its surrounding nineteen large cities and all small cities to Zhao State.
After the first battle, Zhao, Wei and Han each gained something. Qin lost Hedong, Hanoi, Sanchuan, and most of Nanyang, and its national power was greatly damaged.
History calls this peace treaty the Weinan Peace Treaty, which marked the turn of Qin's prosperity into decline.
After the four countries signed the peace treaty, Fan Ju put away the peace treaty and said: "Now we can release the captured generals of our country."
"I will release General Si Li when I return." Wei Wuji said readily, without embarrassing Qin in this regard.
Fan Ju looked at Zhao Kuo.
"Our army captured three generals of the Qin army: Zheng Anping, Sima Jin and Hu Yang. Each of them was given 200,000 stones of grain and grass in exchange." Zhao Kuo said.
Zhao Jun had been eating food and grass from Wei and South Korea before. After retreating, it was obviously impossible to continue to have sex with Wei and South Korea for free, and it was even less possible for Zhao. Zhao Kuo had to find a way on his own.
"You..." Bai Qi stood up violently, drew out the Long Yuan Sword from his waist, and glared at Zhao Kuo.
Upon seeing this, Le Yi and others also drew their weapons.
Wei Wuji looked at Zhao Kuo in surprise. He didn't expect that the captive could be used like this. He had known that he would be like this. Wei Wuji wanted to take back what he just said, but after thinking about it, he gave up.
I really can’t afford to lose that person!
"The general should know that our Qin country...has no food and grass." Fan Ju sighed, and the wrinkles on his face twisted into a ball.
"The three generals have 500,000 stones of food and grass. If there is no food and grass, you will find a way on your own." Zhao Kuo said very firmly.
Zhao Kuo believed that Qin State was not rich in food and grass.
But if you say there is no food, even if you beat Zhao Kuo to death, you won't believe it.
Historically, the Qin State fought the Battle of Changping and then fought the Battle of Handan for more than two years. After fighting the Battle of Handan for more than two years, it defeated the three Jin Dynasties again, and also destroyed the Western Zhou Dynasty without running out of food and grass.
Are you saying there is no food now?
"I will send a message to the king." Fan Ju said.
"Okay. If the Qin State provides all the food and grass, I will release you when. In addition, I will give you at most one month." Zhao Kuo said.
"let's go."
Fan Ju flicked his sleeves, stood up and left. On the other side, Bai Qi had already walked to the door.
"Bao Yuan, thank you, Marshal." Bao Yuan leaned towards Zhao Kuo and said.
If Zhao Kuo hadn't argued hard and refused to give in, South Korea would have never had a chance to win the land of Nanyang.
Although South Korea has lost Shangdang now, it has gained Sanchuan and part of Nanyang. The area is larger than before, and the wealth of Sanchuan and Nanyang is not comparable to that of Shangdang.
"We, the Three Jin Dynasties, are one family, and we should help each other. Without the help of the Han family, we, the Zhao family, would not be where we are today. A drop of kindness should be repaid by a spring." Zhao Kuo said righteously.
"The commander-in-chief is truly a gentleman. If there is any need for Bao Yuan, please speak up as soon as possible." Bao Yuan said, patting his chest.
"The general said that, Zhao Kuo really wants to trouble the general with something." Zhao Kuo said.
"Commander, please tell me."
Le Yi and Tian Dan watched silently from the sidelines as Zhao Kuo tricked Bao Yuan, wanting to laugh but not daring to.
"Now that the war is over, logically speaking, we should no longer rely on the food and grass from South Korea and Wei. But the general also knows that our army has always been short of food and grass, otherwise we would not have let Qin exchange food for prisoners just now. Now Qin Although the country has agreed, we don’t know when the food will be delivered. Moreover, it will take half a month for the army to return..." Zhao Kuo said hesitantly.
Bao Yuan thought for a moment and said: "Excluding the losses on the road, our army probably has about 100,000 shi left. I can order all this food and grass to be handed over to Zhao Jun."
"Thank you so much, General." Zhao Kuo said excitedly.
"Our army can also give Zhao Jun 150,000 stones of food and grass." Wei Wuji said.
"Thank you, Lord Xinling."
…
"Farewell."
Outside Weinan City, Wu Anjun and Wang Lu cupped their hands and said, then they got up and flew towards Hexi.
"Iren, it's time to get on the chariot." Taizi Zhu called while sitting on the chariot.
The stranger looked back at Weinan City and said loudly: "Today's humiliation will be repaid in the future."
Turn around and board the chariot.
…
"We say goodbye today, I don't know when we will see each other again."
On the bank of the river, on a high platform, Wei Wuji held his wine glass high, his robes blown up by the breeze, his long hair fluttering, looking like an immortal.
"Today's farewell is for a better reunion in the future." Zhao Kuo raised his wine glass and drank it in one gulp.
"Well said." Le Yi, Bao Yuan and others responded loudly, and they all drank.
Everyone's face was full of smiles.
"In the past, I left, and the willows clung to me. Now I come to think about it, and the rain and snow are flying." Feng Ting stood up, poured the wine in his glass into the Yellow River, and sang loudly.
In this battle of Changping, only he and Jin Mao fought from the beginning to the end, from the spring two years ago to the winter of this year.
How many families are torn apart.
How many men died on the battlefield.
Thank you woman for being so humiliated.
How many children will never see their parents.
"Beat the drums and boring them, and use the troops enthusiastically. I am marching south alone in the city of the earth country... The life and death agreement is broad, and I have said it to my son. I will hold my hand and grow old together..." Jin Mao also stood up and sang "The Book of Songs· "Drumming" in "Bei Feng".
Even Feng Ting and Jin Mao walked into the middle and danced, and everyone beat the beat for them, or beat the wine strings and vegetable basins as musical instruments.
After the two of them got tired of dancing, they went down and someone else came on stage.
Finally, Bao Yuan also walked up, dancing and singing with a broken gong voice: "What kind of grass is not yellow? When is it not possible? Who is not a general? Manage the four directions. What kind of grass is not mysterious? Who is not jealous? I am sorry for my husband, I am alone. Bandits..."
Maybe he was infected by the atmosphere, and his love was so deep that he couldn't control himself.
Zhao Kuo also walked to the bank of the Yellow River and sang loudly: "Life is only a few autumns, don't give up until you are drunk, my beauty in the east, the river flows in the west, come and have a drink, don't give up until you are drunk, melancholy Don’t worry about troubles.”
"Although I have never heard the song sung by the Marshal, it is quite novel." Wei Wuji said with a smile.
"I just don't know who the beauty to the east is. Could it be General Baoyuan sitting to the east of the commander?" Li Mu said suddenly.
Everyone was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter. Bao Yuan even picked up the bench and chased after Li Mu.
"Don't tell me, General Baoyuan was really a first-class beauty when he was young." Le Yi said with a smile.
"Go, go, don't talk nonsense." Bao Yuan said quickly.
He never thought that he would still be teased by others in his seventies and eighties.
ps: The Battle of Changping is completely over. By the way, have you seen people who traveled to ancient times and copied poems? Have you ever seen people who copied lyrics?
