Wu Sangui stared at Cheng Xiaolian tightly, his eyes seemed to be on fire: "You are taking advantage of the fire to rob, if you don't give you money and food, you won't dare to deal with Da Zhou, right?" If the two of us really fight each other, the most beneficial thing is the Manchu court, whether it is the Ming Dynasty or the Great Zhou, it will be defeated in their hands. ”

Cheng Xiaolian smiled: "I naturally don't have the idea of doing anything to Da Zhou, but if I withdraw like this, my soldiers will lose morale, what I know is that I take care of the overall situation, and those who don't know think that Da Ming is afraid of Da Zhou, and the land they fought hard for was given to you in vain, who will be willing to fight to the death for Da Ming in the future?" ”

"I can only give you 200,000 stone 100 meters, you don't have to think about the silver, if you agree, you will withdraw immediately, if you don't agree, let's stop the peace talks, our soldiers of the Great Zhou, the lost land has no rules for exchanging silver back, and the knives and guns in their hands can snatch the land back."

"General Wu, it's still the same sentence, now the main target of the Manchu Qing is you, you have the richest Jiangsu and Zhejiang in your hands, if you really want to fight separately, I don't care, as long as the Manchu Qing is caught in the quagmire of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, it will be easier for me to attack Henan."

Wu Sangui snorted coldly: "200,000 stone white rice can't be exchanged for the sincerity of the two families, your appetite is inevitably too big." ”

"If it weren't for General Wu, you deliberately let Geng Shang's coalition army come over to fight with us, Daming would not have suffered such a big damage, let alone 100,000 taels of silver now, my Daming has already lost no less than 500,000 taels of silver for this, it's not too much to ask General Wu for compensation."

"Geng Jingzhong's letter of the monk has fallen into your hands, you can find them if you have any account, I heard that they scraped the ground in Hubei, and it is still easy to gather 100,000 taels of silver."

"General Wu, what I want is a stable Hubei to be the rear of the Ming army, but not the boiling Hubei, how much silver they take, I will pay it back a lot, so I have to rebuild the houses burned by them for the people to live in peace, if you don't let them in, how can there be such a thing? Now that you have occupied the provinces of Guangdong and Fujian, you won't be able to get even this bit of silver. ”

Wu Sangui sighed: "That's it, just do as you say, but I can warn you, I'm old, it's not a big deal if you lie to me, those people under me are all hot-tempered, in case you break today's oath, they will directly find you desperately regardless of the overall situation, and you will be the one who suffers at that time." ”

Cheng Xiaolian laughed: "Although General Wu can rest assured, although I don't agree with you very much, I still agree with what you just said, this world is still the world of the Han people, and the brothers are outside the wall to resist their insults, and when the Manchus are driven out, it is not too late to talk about the grievances between our two families." ”

"I never imagined that someone like Zhu Yulang would raise a grandson like you, if I had known that this was the case, I would have taken the risk of stealing the day, and I would have saved his life."

"General Wu has won the award, if he had known that this was the case, maybe General Wu would have gone to Beijing City Qinwang as soon as possible, and it is impossible to say whether the Ming Dynasty would last for three or five years."

Wu Sangui laughed: "I'm old, and after a hundred years, people will be terrible, but who in the world dares to stand in front of me and say a word about me?" As he spoke, he glanced at Cheng Xiaolian: "You have to remember that as long as you can climb high enough, even if what you do is wrong, there are countless people who stand up to prove that you are right." ”

Cheng Xiaolian smiled: "This sentence General Wu should say to your grandson, I don't want General Wu's bones to be crushed and scattered before his bones are cold." ”

"I, Wu Sangui, joined the army before I was twenty years old, and I have been resisting the Manchu Qing Dynasty, who knows that at the age of thirty-two, I personally led the Manchu Qing into the customs, and how will the people of the world comment after a hundred years." As he spoke, he turned around and slowly walked towards his camp.

Cheng Xiaolian sighed in his heart, Wu Sangui was saying that he had also guarded the border for the Ming Dynasty for more than ten years, and he was forced to lead the Qing soldiers into the customs at the beginning. At this time, a very strange feeling suddenly rose in his heart, like the person you have always regarded as the greatest enemy, and suddenly one day, he gave in to you.

But Cheng Xiaolian knew that Wu Sangui was not for himself, if it was really himself, he would not even see Cheng Xiaolian's face, but his most valued son died in Beijing, and his grandson could not see a trace of potential to become the founding king, so he could only let Cheng Xiaolian remember the love of the year and not be ruthless to deal with his grandson.

It's just that things in this world, which can be decided by human subjectivity, everyone can't escape the tide of history, really come to the day when the two families face off, can Cheng Xiaolian really be soft?

But it's still too early to think about this, after all, there is still a behemoth standing in front of them, the Manchu Qing.

Cheng Xiaolian returned to his army and said the conditions for negotiation, and Qin Yue's eyes widened: "Wu Sangui agreed?" ”

"Naturally, I agreed, otherwise how would I come back."

Qin Yue swallowed his saliva: "Your Majesty, forgive the old minister for being rude, should we grab grain for Wu Sangui or Wu Sangui give us money and grain?" The old minister didn't seem to hear clearly. ”

"Wu Sangui promised to give us 100,000 taels of silver and 200,000 stones of white rice."

"We robbed him of his territory, not only did he not want the territory, but he also didn't want us to give him money and food, but also gave us money and food?"

Cheng Xiaolian smiled: "Wu Sangui is holding Jiangsu and Zhejiang in his hand, it is a cornucopia, the Manchu Qing Dynasty has been red for a long time, if we cut the meat on him again, he doesn't have much energy to care about us." It's just that we can't deal with them anymore, Da Zhou is already at a disadvantage, and we can't help the Manchus, so I asked for these money and food, and I should use it as the capital for us to attack Henan Mansion. ”

Qin Yue clapped his hands: "The emperor is heroic, we are coarse, we just don't see far from the emperor." ”

"Lord Qin, you are so old, don't learn from those juniors to say these polite words, how can you have a plan in your heart to capture Henan?"

"The emperor can rest assured, marching and fighting is the minister's business, even if the minister forgets how to eat, he will not forget how to fight, these days have also studied a lot of methods, now please also ask the emperor to take a look at our method, maybe the emperor has a better way to say."

Cheng Xiaolian waved his hand: "I won't look at it, I'm busy with other things these days, and I haven't studied much of the information here, even if I do, I will only command blindly, so it's better to follow your deployment, and I just listen to your deployment." In addition, our other side will make a move on Yunnan soon, so we must solve the matter in Henan as soon as possible, otherwise Wu Sangui will be in big trouble if he turns his face. ”

Thank you for your tips and support.
