"It's fine." Dahn nodded, as it should be.

This scene made Ding Ding very angry. In the past, when there was a war, it was the military generals who fought the war, and the civilian officials who fought the peace. But now as soon as he heard that he wanted to negotiate peace, Dahn agreed so happily, and from this point of view, I am afraid that they are really inferior to too many mercenaries, so doesn't it mean that this peace talks will not go too smoothly? Now I just hope that the other party doesn't open his mouth.

The truth doomed Dindingway to be disappointed. Although the mercenaries quickly replied and welcomed them to the peace talks, when Ding Dingwei went to the mercenary barracks the next day with the dress and etiquette of the envoys, what he saw was not the famous Ming loyal and courageous duke, but only the two regimental political commissars, he knew that this time the peace talks would not be so smooth, and he would not even be able to see the main master, which was a bad signal.

The people who met Ding Dingwei were Kong Jie, the political commissar of the Second Regiment, and Chen Bo, the political commissar of the Third Regiment. This is also Yang Chendong's intention to exercise the political work ability of these people. Of course, the two of them were also prepared when they came on order, that is, Chen Bo sang with a red face, and Kong Jie sang with a white face.

When the two of them, one red and one white, had their first contact with Ding Dingwei, a lion opened his mouth and put forward conditions that were unacceptable to Ding Dingwei.

According to the meaning of the two political commissars, it is okay not to fight, but the Phnom Penh dynasty must be a vassal to the loyal and courageous princes, and at the same time, the entire Phnom Penh dynasty must become a province like Vietnam and Laos. King Polamo had to leave the royal palace and take him to a mysterious place where he would be placed under house arrest for the rest of his life, and the other ministers had to hand over half of their property to save themselves, and so on.

This is completely the overlord clause, you can imagine what Ding Dingwei's face would be black when he heard this, and then he laughed angrily: "Is there any difference between your demand and the occupation of the Phnom Penh dynasty by force?" ”

"Of course there is, if we take it, a minister like you can't save his life by handing over half of the money." Chen Bo, who was in charge of singing blackface, said unyieldingly.

"You... Are you so confident that you can conquer our Phnom Penh dynasty? I know if the rabbit is in a hurry and bites, and when we lose both sides, if Siam and Ava join forces to attack, you are afraid that you will have to pay a heavy price. Ding Dingwei said in a somewhat threatening language, he did not believe that mercenaries could be so bold as not to scruple other countries, if so, they would not besiege the city of Suon, but directly attack it.

At this point, Chen Bo said as if he had suddenly thought of something, "Oh yes, the reason why you are here must have heard the news that we have repelled the combined forces of Siam and Ava." Well, if you are willing to come to peace talks before then, then we all have to talk, but for now, either the whole country will surrender, or we will wait for the guns of my mercenaries to enter your hearts. ”

"Is this your loyal opinion?" After feeling Chen Bo's tough attitude, Ding Dingwei knew that there would be no result if he continued to talk to this person, so he thought about meeting someone at a higher level. This may be the good opinion of Hades, the little ghost is difficult.

"It's not the opinion of our loyal fathers, but the opinion of most of our military generals." Chen Bo twisted his head and said with a very arrogant look.

The first meeting ended in vain. And just when Ding Dingwei, who was full of anger, just returned to Su Weng City, several shells suddenly swept over his head, and one of them landed not far from his team, and I don't know if it was randomly or deliberately, in order to give him a dismount.

The shelling continues, at no fixed time, without a fixed place, and without a fixed quantity. It seems that everything is in the mood of mercenaries. When the mood is good, it will only come in half a day, and when the mood is bad, a few shots will suddenly fall, making the people in the city panic, and the morale in the barracks is also declining day by day, if it weren't for the fact that General Dahn sent an inspection team to guard the rear early, I am afraid that I don't know how many deserters have appeared.

The atmosphere in the city is becoming more and more severe, and the pressure on the left minister Ding Dingwei is also increasing. He went to the mercenary barracks for three days in a row, and Chen Bo, one of the negotiators opposite, never gave him a good look, although it was said that because there was another negotiator, Kong Jie, who was constantly adjusting the atmosphere in the middle, it was only that the negotiations did not break down, and the content did not change much. Unable to do so, Ding Dingwei had no choice but to write down the situation and send the people back to Phnom Penh, the royal capital, for 800 miles.

As soon as the news entered the royal capital, King Parama was a little overwhelmed. If this time the mercenaries are determined to capture Phnom Penh like they captured Cochin and Lancang, then what will they do to stop it. Yes, they still have an army of more than 300,000 people, and if they fight, they can also cause some damage or even heavy damage to the mercenaries. This gave the two allies a chance to fight back. But in this way, the Phnom Penh dynasty is destined to be turned into a sieve, or even destroyed, so what are the benefits and what does it have to do with them?

What to do?

Cursing in his heart, Siam and Ava were watching the excitement from the sidelines, and Boramo could only figure out his own way. Fortunately, at this time, there was good news, the old eunuch next to him said that the right minister Duon's illness had been cured, although he was not as healthy as before, but as long as it was not a huge exercise, there would be no problem in doing ordinary work.

"Quick, pass the right phase into the hall." As soon as he heard the news, Poramo shouted excitedly as if he had seen the dawn and the light of dawn as a man walking in the darkness.

Doon's illness is indeed cured, it was originally just a homemade cold, because it was dealt with in a timely manner, it just looked more serious two days ago, but now it has been recuperating for more than a week, so it is naturally fine.

Of course, Doon got better so quickly thanks to the help of the lark. This Mr. Yun said that it was time to make a comeback, and it was also time for him to make a contribution. With Zuo Prime Minister Ding Dingwei to play the front station, the next negotiations Doon will be very advantageous if he takes over, especially in terms of conditions.

The facts have proven that the lark's words can be believed, and of course Doon is about to stand up. At this time, he can be said to be in good spirits, even when he followed the eunuch into the palace, he was also arrogant, and his confident demeanor was exposed.

As the lark said, the left prime minister really hit a wall on the Su Weng front, and the king didn't want to really fight with the mercenaries, and the negotiating force would become the mainstream, so his opportunity to perform would naturally come. Because the lark said that he is the only one in the entire Phnom Penh dynasty who can handle the negotiation well. Of course, in return, this time he must also fight for certain rights and interests for the mercenaries.

For this reason, Doon basically agreed without hesitation. Perhaps others may see that he is betraying the rights and interests of his country, but only he knows that if he does not have himself, there will be someone else to take his place. Not to mention that it is a great achievement for him to be able to keep the Phnom Penh Dynasty at this moment, not to mention that he can also strike a strong blow to the left minister Ding Dingwei, which is his long-standing wish.

It can make His Majesty happy, and the mercenaries can be happy, and you can also make yourself happy, so why not do such a thing?

Dunn walked into the side hall and saw King Polamo sitting high on the throne, and saw that the other party's eyes lit up, and then a smile was on his face, "Haha, the right minister is here, this king is very determined, come here, give the prime minister a seat." ”

Giving a seat is a very high courtesy, and something like this kind of solo seat has never happened, just this action can prove a lot of things, and at this time, Dune's heart is even more determined.

After more than an hour, Doon walked out of the palace with a satisfied face. Poramo had given his go, and he would go to Suon to negotiate with the mercenaries instead of the Left Prime Minister Ding Dingwei. Not only that, but the king even told Doon the bottom line that as long as he kept the bottom line, he would have more space to play freely.

Just the next morning, Doon set off from Phnom Penh and headed straight for Suong, accompanied by the head of foreign affairs of the Security Bureau. As Doon headed to the front, his task was more than eighty percent complete, and the next step was to finalize some details of the negotiations.

In fact, after Doon returned to his mansion yesterday, he had an in-depth communication with the lark about the negotiations. In this regard, Skylark has long been authorized by Yang Chendong, and the decision he made is the decision made by the mercenaries.

Finally, after sincere communication between the two, the final plan of the negotiation was finalized, that is, the Phnom Penh dynasty made the following concessions:

First, General Hun Sen publicly apologized to the Lao Solangon family and compensated the other party for direct losses and mental losses totaling 300,000 taels of silver. (The actual loss of the Solangon family was only 170,000 taels of silver.) ）

Second, the Phnom Penh dynasty paid 1.5 million taels of silver to the mercenaries, which was used as military expenses for the mercenaries' war, and 500,000 tons of copper and iron each.

3. Cedion the city of Stung Treng and all the territory north of the city to the province of Laos. The mercenaries were to retreat to the area north of the city of Shangding, and were not allowed to invade the interests of the Phnom Penh dynasty without reason and enter the country without order.

Fourth, the two sides exchange commerce, each has its own independent sovereignty, and can be stationed in each other's diplomatic missions to ensure friendly relations for generations. And once one side is attacked by others for no reason, the other side is obliged to send troops to help, that is to say, the Phnom Penh dynasty and Lao Province have formed a military alliance after these events.

Of course, it is written in the agreement that once a war really breaks out, it is certain to send troops, but how much to send depends on the mood. There is no specific amount specified above, and in some respects, it is not a breach of contract to send only one person.
