Chapter 409: Yan Kingdom Seeks Peace

After the Yan army retreated to Juyongsai, the Yan State was shocked, originally thinking that the plateau was in Daliang at this time to help the Wei State resist the Qin army, and now the Daijun is empty, and the dragons are leaderless, which is a great opportunity for the Yan State, and the 100,000 troops are dispatched and do not sweep the entire Daijun area.

I knew that although the plateau was not in Daijun, the wife of the plateau personally led the army to meet the battle, and I heard that she also took a female army to fight against the Yan army, and the Yan army was defeated, and the 100,000 army was almost wiped out, and retreated to Juyong Pass, although some remnants of the army were collected later, but there were only 16,700 people.

And the news spread to Jijing, which also caused panic among the Yan people, saying that the Dai Jun was going to enter Jijing this time and destroy the Yan Kingdom, and someone actually turned out Li Yinghong's life experience, it turned out that she was Li Mu's daughter, the tiger father has no dog daughter, Li Mu is a generation of famous generals, can his daughter be bad? There are also rumors that Li Yinghong's art of war is the true biography of Li Mu, and she is by no means under the plateau, just because she is a woman and can't show her face, so she doesn't show her name. In fact, after Gao Yuan became the master of Dai County, the reason why he waited enough to win many battles was the result of Li Yinghong's guidance behind his back, and this time Gao Yuan was not in Dai County, so she personally came forward, and the result was that the Yan army was defeated at once, it seems that this time Yan Guo is dangerous.

These rumors have noses and eyes, so they also make people panic in Jijing City, rumors are spreading, many people are in a hurry to move away from Jijing, and many people take the opportunity to rob and make trouble in Jijing City.

Although the Yan court did not believe these rumors, the fiasco of the Yan army was a fact, and Yan Wangxi was angry and dismissed all the ministers who fooled him into sending troops to attack the dynasty and imprisoned them, and their family property was confiscated. These officials also have suffering, because they all received bribes from the Qin State, so they persuaded Yan Wangxi to send troops to attack the Dynasty, who knew that the Dai Army was really not easy to mess with, and the Yan Army was too bad, and the result was defeated miserably, and now they can't even argue for themselves.

However, although Yan Wangxi can take the ministers of Yan State to be angry, but there is no way to take the Dai army, and now that the Dai army has come to the city, Yan Wangxi can only gather all the ministers to discuss countermeasures. But what countermeasures can Yan Guo come up with now? We can only ask for peace with the substitute army and ask the substitute army to retreat early. And the only one who can serve as a peace envoy is Prince Dan.

But King Yan was happy to issue an edict and asked Tai Xiao Dan to go to the rescue of the army on behalf of the army, but he knew that Tai Xiao Dan excused himself from illness. When Yan Wangxi decided to take advantage of the situation to attack Daijun, Tai Xiao Dan persuaded Yan Wangxi bitterly, and repeatedly stated the interests and disadvantages, indicating that Yan Guo must not betray the alliance and send troops, but Yan Wangxi just didn't listen, insisted on going his own way, and complained about himself. Now that the situation has reached such a point, he has to come out and clean up this mess by himself, and no one will do such a thankless thing, and now Tai Xiaodan also feels that he has no face to go to the plateau, so he is unwilling to serve as this envoy for peace.

And at this time, the news came, it turned out that the plateau had rushed to the army, and the army launched a fierce attack on Juyongsai, and there was a great chance to capture Juyongsai in one fell swoop, and it was close to Jijing, and Qi also increased the border of Qi and Yan, accusing Yan of cutting off the trade route between Yan and Qi, and then Yan was even more panicked, and Yan Wangxi could only go to ask for his son in person, and Tai Xiaodan was the prince of Yan after all, and he couldn't stand his father's repeated begging, and he couldn't watch Yan perish. So I finally agreed.

So Yan Wangxi hurriedly ordered that Prince Dan should take full responsibility for the things that would make peace with the Dai Army, so Tai Xiao Dan also led the servants to Juyongsai and came to the camp of the Dai Army to see the plateau.

As soon as he heard Tai Xiaodan ask to see him, Gao Yuan knew that he must have come to ask for peace, which was also in line with Gao Yuan's intentions, because now the Dai army has no ability to completely destroy Yan Guo, as long as the road between Dai County and Qi State is opened, so Yan Guo came to seek peace, just to borrow a ladder to go down the wall, otherwise Gao Yuan still doesn't know what to do.

However, Gao Yuan also knew the truth of wanting to capture the old man, so when he met with Prince Dan, he deliberately kept his face calm and put on an ugly face to show Tai Dan, expressing that he was very dissatisfied with Yan Guo's attitude.

Seeing Gao Yuan's calm face, Tai Xiao Dan could only bite the bullet and salute Gao Yuan, saying, "Ji Dan has seen Wu Anjun. ”

Gao Yuan said: "At this time, what is the use of the Tai Xiao coming to see me again?" Needless to say. ”

Tai Xiaodan smiled bitterly and said: "Wu Anjun, this time my father mistakenly believed the instigation of some villains, and he was confused for a while, so he made this decision, and he had persuaded his father before, not to break the alliance and abandon the covenant, but unfortunately his father did not listen, so he sent troops, and now his father regrets it too late, and has dismissed all these ministers and sent them to prison, specially sent Ji Dan to ask for peace, and asked Wu Anjun to forgive and agree to sue for peace. ”

Gao Yuan snorted and said: "Our Daijun and Yan have never had hatred, but Yan has attacked Daijun twice for no reason, and this time, we have already formed an alliance, so we should work together to fight against Qin, so I am not far away, leading the army to Wei to resist the Qin army, which is also to fulfill the covenant." And King Yan only listened to the instigation of a few ministers, and then categorically reneged on the alliance and renounced the contract, not only suppressed the caravan of my Daijun, but also attacked Daijun while I was not in Daijun, such a trustworthy move, how can the prince let me believe in King Yan and believe in Yan Kingdom? Please go back, tell King SΓΉ Yan, let him prepare for battle, and prepare to fight to the death with me. ”

Tai Xiao Dan was also in a hurry, and saluted the plateau again and again, and said: "Wu Anjun, this time it is indeed my Yan country that is wrong, but the Yan Dynasty is evil, I am afraid that the Qin State will benefit, so I also ask Wu Anjun to take into account the overall situation and accept Yan Guo's request for peace, as long as Wu Anjun can withdraw the army, my Yan Kingdom will not only release the caravan, return the goods and property to Dai County, but also be willing to cede five cities to Wu Anjun, if Wu Anjun has any other conditions, my Yan Kingdom will agree." ”

Gao Yuan looked at Tai Xiao Dan for a long time, then nodded, and said: "Okay, since Tai Xiao said so, I will also take a step back, and let me withdraw the army on behalf of the county, but in addition to releasing the caravan, returning the goods and property, and ceding to us five cities, I also have three conditions, one is that Daijun and Yan will cancel the alliance, and in the future, if Yan Guo encounters attacks from other countries, my Daijun will not send troops to rescue; the second is to ask Yan Guo to compensate me for 3,000 gold and 500,000 stone of grain; The third is that in the future, the caravans of our Daijun can pass through the territory of Yan Country at will, and Yan Country shall no longer be blocked or detained for no reason. If it happens again, then don't blame me for being unkind, it's these three conditions, I give Yan Guo two days to think about it, two days later, if there is no reply, I will immediately capture Juyongsai, and then take Jijing directly, so where to go, please Yan Guo do it yourself. ”

Although Gao Yuan has added a lot of conditions, no matter what, Gao Yuan has already accepted Yan Guo's peace, so Prince Dan is also relieved, at least the current crisis has been lifted, as for other things, let's talk about it later. So Tai Xiaodan complained to Gao and hurried back to Jijing. Because the plateau only gave Yan Guo two days, and it would take at least half a day to return to Jijing from Juyong Pass, if it wasn't faster, it would be too late at all.

When Prince Dan returned to Jijing, it was already close to dusk in the afternoon, and Prince Dan did not care about resting, and immediately gathered the ministers of Yan with Yan Wangxi, and informed the ministers of the conditions proposed by the plateau to discuss countermeasures.

At this point, what bargaining capital does Yan Guo have, he can only agree to it in full, and Yan Wangxi has just the homes of those ministers, and he can just use their family wealth to compensate for the plateau, and he doesn't need to withdraw it from the treasury, and Yan Wangxi has no reason not to agree. And the alliance of the Yan Dynasty has long been broken, and Yan Wangxi has no face to talk about the alliance with Daijun again, as for the Daijun caravan through the Yan Kingdom, this is not a problem.

Although there are still a few ministers on the plateau's conditions quite a few criticisms, thinking that it is too harsh, can not be accepted completely, but should bargain with the plateau again, because it is Yan Wangxi only said one sentence, the plateau has said, Yan does not agree to these conditions, will attack Juyongsai again, so if anyone opposes accepting the conditions of the plateau, who will go to Juyongsai to garrison the army, and negotiate with the plateau. Naturally, no minister dared to object, and the result was very smooth to complete the discussion and accept the conditions of the plateau in its entirety.

Early the next morning, Prince Dan hurried to Juyongsai with several members of the caravan's supervisor and replied to the plateau. Fortunately, it was Yan Guo who seized the caravan in Daijun at the beginning, but he only imprisoned the personnel of the caravan and did not harm him, otherwise it would be really difficult to do.

The next thing is simple, because Yan Yan fully agreed to the conditions of the plateau, but it was only the time to fulfill, Tai Xiao Dan first handed over the atlas of the ceded city to the Dai army, and the caravan's personnel and goods were returned to the Dai army after three days, and the gold and grain of the compensation would also be delivered to the Dai army within ten days.

Gao Yuan then ordered Huang Chong to take over the five cities ceded by the Yan State.

These five cities are all outside Juyongsai, and the nearest is less than fifty miles away from Juyongsai, so after Daijun takes over these five cities, he can send troops to attack Juyongsai at any time. In addition, these five cities have a total population of more than 80,000 people, and if you add the grain and gold compensated by the Yan Kingdom, it can be regarded as a big harvest.

So Gao Yuan ordered to temporarily retreat fifty miles, and wait for the Yan State to deliver the grain and gold before withdrawing and returning to Daijun.

After such a toss, more than ten days passed, so by the time Gao Yuan and Li Yinghong led the army back to Daijun, it was already the end of the year, and the New Year was coming.
