Chapter 218 Withdrawal as promised
In addition to the speed of Yan Guo's reply, it was also a little unexpected by Gao Yuan, because he only talked to Prince Dan yesterday, and set his own conditions, giving Yan Guo's monarchs and ministers a day to consider, it is said that today is the time for Yan Guo's monarchs and ministers to consider and discuss, but Prince Dan has already come to the camp of the Wu'an Army and told the plateau, and Yan Guo decided to accept the plateau's conditions in its entirety.
In fact, Gao Yuan was not very sure whether Yan Guo would accept the conditions he proposed, but Yan Guo actually replied faster than the time he gave, and accepted his own conditions in full, which of course made Gao Yuan surprised and delighted.
However, although Yan Guo accepted the conditions in its entirety, it would take a certain amount of time for these conditions to be fulfilled, and it would take time for them to gather them, not only would it take time to gather them, but also Gao Yuan would first submit the list of captured soldiers and family members, so that Yan Guo could deliver the family members according to the list, and the delivery of gold and grain could not be completed in a short period of time.
In the end, Gao Yuan and Tai Zidan discussed and decided that within three days, Yan Guo would first deliver all 6,000 Yi gold and the first batch of 200,000 stone grain to the Wu'an Army, and in the name of Yan State, issue an edict to the captured Yan soldiers, indicating that the Yan State Office had decided to move these soldiers and their families to settle in Daijun and be ruled by Gao Yuan. Because it turned out that Gao Yuan had announced to the captives of the Yan army that as long as they succeeded in making peace with the Yan country, they would all be released and let them go home, and it was with this hope that the captives were all trapped with peace of mind and did not resist. And now they have to move to Daijun, it is difficult to ensure that the captives will not make any trouble, so Yan Guo will be the villain, and tell the captives that Yan Guo has given up on them, and Gao Yuan can also take the opportunity to be good people to appease the hearts of these captives, and at the same time, these Yan soldiers can settle in Daijun with peace of mind.
After receiving the delivered gold grain, the Wu'an army retreated to Juyongsai and submitted a list of captured soldiers to Yan State; Yan continued to deliver golden grain to the Wu'an army and recruited the families of the soldiers according to the list. It was not until all the gold grain personnel were delivered that the Wu'an army returned Juyongsai to the Yan army and retreated to the territory of Shanggu County.
At the same time, Gao Yuan also warned Prince Dan that if there was a recurrence of Yan during this period, then the next time the Wu'an army would never reconcile with Yan again, but would directly capture Jijing.
After the two discussed and determined the delivery method and procedure, Prince Dan turned back to Jijing to hand over the order. Yan Wangxi was also quite satisfied with Tai Xiaodan's negotiations, because the plateau still gave Yan Guo a certain amount of time to prepare, and did not press Yan Guo too hard. It also made Yan Wangxi breathe a sigh of relief. As for Gao Yuan's request for Yan Guo to issue an edict to the captives, in Yan Wangxi's opinion, it is not a difficult thing at all, but it is just to do it yourself.
Of course, Yan Wangxi also knew that if the people of Yan Guo knew that they had issued this edict, they would definitely be criticized a lot, but this edict was sent to the Wu'an army and listened to by the captives, and Yan Guo would not know about it, and these captives would be the people of Daijun in the future, no matter what they thought of themselves. Therefore, Yan Wangxi didn't say a word, took a bamboo tube, brushed a few brushes, wrote an edict, and handed it to Tai Xiaodan. Then Yan Wangxi ordered to immediately take out 2,000 eridium gold and 200,000 stone grain from the treasury, and at the same time ordered Honggao, Qijiao, and Liaoyangjun to hand over the gold first.
And the shape shì has developed to this point, Honggao, Qijiao, and Liaoyang Jun have no other way, so they have to honestly gather 4,000 Yi gold and hand it over to Yan Wangxi, and at the same time start to raise food.
So three days later, Tai Xiao Dan escorted the first batch of gold, grain and edicts to the camp of the Wu'an army for delivery.
After receiving the first batch of supplies, Gao Yuan was also very happy, and withdrew his troops as promised and retreated to Juyongsai to garrison. In fact, Juyongsai is the gateway to the northwest of Jijing, starting from Juyongsai, you can reach Jijing in one day, and there is basically no danger to defend along the road, so Jijing is still under the threat of the Wu'an army, but the Wu'an army retreats to Juyongsai and is not stationed in front of Jijing City.
Subsequently, the plateau recruited all the Yan army prisoners, and Prince Dan read out the edict of Yan Wangxi in public. The general content is that because the Yan soldiers did not work hard to fight, they were defeated and captured by the Wu'an army, and they were to blame, and Yan Wangxi decided to expel these Yan soldiers from Yan and not be the people of Yan State, and all the family property and fields were all owned by the office.
After Tai Xiao Dan finished reading the edict, the captives immediately burst into the shed, originally these soldiers were full of hope, only Gao Yuan and Yan Guo talked about peace, then they could be released home, no one thought that Yan Guo would actually expel all of his own people out of the country, and his own family property, all the fields were state-owned, so some people cried to the sky, and some people angrily questioned Prince Dan, and a few people even rushed up to fight Prince Dan, but fortunately they were stopped by the soldiers of the Wu'an Army.
At this time, Gao Yuan came forward to pretend to be a good man, and announced to the captives that he was willing to take them in and settle down in Daijun, and that he could bring his family with him, and assured them that after arriving in Daijun, he could enjoy the same treatment as the people of Daijun, and he could cultivate the land by himself, and he would not become slaves.
After listening to Gao Yuan's words, the feelings of the captives also calmed down a lot, because the prisoners in the first battle had been in the Wu'an Army for a period of time and had not been mistreated, and the daily rations were basically guaranteed, so the prisoners also had a certain sense of trust in the Wu'an Army, and some of the captives even thanked Gao Yuan on the spot, expressing their gratitude to him for being able to take him in. Although the prisoners of the second war did not have a bottom in their hearts, their numbers were small, and when they saw that the other prisoners had settled down, they did not make a fuss and waited to see what happened.
Gao Yuan also comforted the captives with kind words, and then ordered to start counting the list of captives, so that he could negotiate with Yan Guo and bring their families back to Daijun to live in peace. After hearing this, the captives also rushed to sign up, and most of them even reported the list of their parents, wives and children, and asked the personnel of the Wu'an Army to write them down one by one.
Prince Dan didn't have a taste on the side, it was obvious that Gao Yuan wanted to move these captives to Dai County to settle, but now he has become a good person, and Yan Guo has become a villain, but Tai Xiao Dan also has to admit that Gao Yuan's methods are indeed very clever, so these captives will follow Gao Yuan together and settle in Dai County, but it is much better than forcing them to relocate. It is conceivable that after two or three years, this group of soldiers will settle down in Daijun and buy a home, and they will completely abandon Yan State.
Because Prince Dan has lived in the Wu'an Army for a few days, and he also knows that the implementation of the new decree by Gao Yuan in Dai County is actually a change of law, so it can also be imagined that under the governance of Gao Yuan, as long as there is a certain amount of time, Dai County will slowly become stronger, and it is not impossible to restore the Zhao State in the future. And even if the plan to assassinate Qin planned by himself succeeded, the threat of Qin State could certainly be lifted, but by Yan State's side, there was still a strong neighbor, and it was still difficult for Yan State to get peace. In the final analysis, it is still necessary for Yan Guo itself to become strong, otherwise it is useless.
And Prince Dan thought that he had been returning to the country for four or five years, and when he first returned to the country, he still had the ambition to make Yan Kingdom stronger, but he had just proposed it to Yan Wangxi, and he didn't even have a detailed plan, and he was strongly opposed by the Yan family and the family, and even Yan Wangxi strictly forbade Prince Dan to mention the reform of the law again, so Prince Dan's ambition was also half discouraged, and only the last point was left, which was the planned plan to assassinate Qin. But the example of Daijun is in front of us, and the enemy of Yan is not just Qin.
But it was too difficult to implement the law change in Yan State, and the resistance was too great, so Prince Dan couldn't help but think that Gao Yuan had persuaded him to launch a coup d'état and take control of the government of Yan, but he was rejected by himself at that time, but at this time, Prince Dan couldn't help but wonder if his decision was a mistake.
Prince Dan stayed in Juyong all night, and he didn't sleep well after thinking about it all night, and the next morning, Gao Yuan had handed over the list of prisoners and family members to Prince Dan. After a night's count, the Wu'an Army captured a total of 84,527 Yan soldiers in the two battles, and if you count the list of family members they reported, there are a total of 457,351 people. Because they are all recorded in wooden tablets, they are also full of two large carts.
But when he saw Prince Dan, he saw that his eyes were black and his face was haggard, and Gao Yuan was also a little surprised, and said, "Why is Taixiao's face so ugly?" ”
Tai Xiaodan smiled bitterly and said, "There is Lao Wu Anjun who asked, Ji Dan thought about it all night last night, so he didn't sleep well. "In fact, although I didn't sleep well last night, Prince Dan didn't come up with a clear plan that could make Yan Kingdom strong, and now he can only take one step at a time, first complete the plan to assassinate Qin, and then slowly find a way to make the clan and clan of Yan Kingdom accept the idea of changing the law and innovating the law. At least in the short term, the plateau will not have any intention of destroying the Yan Kingdom.
And Gao Yuan thought that Tai Xiao Dan was because the conditions he proposed were too harsh, so he didn't sleep well all night, so he was a little reluctant in his heart, but Gao Yuan couldn't make concessions to Yan Guo, after all, this is a fight between the two countries, and he can't talk about personal feelings, so he had to say: "Please also ask the prince to take care of his health, Yan Yan will still need the prince in the future." ”
Prince Dan gave a salute to Gao Yuan and said, "Thank you Wu Anjun for your concern, Ji Dan will leave first." After finishing speaking, Tai Xiaodan left Ju Yu Sai with the list and returned to Jijing to restore his life.
