The negotiation tug-of-war, Mo Xiaobai did not expect to be able to do it in one day.

Because not only the peace talks between the Han side and Baekje, but also the negotiations between the Great Song and Silla were almost all carried out simultaneously.

The negotiations on the second day broke up unhappily, and that night Mo Xiaobai received a message from Cao Yi and Pu Chang through the black-clothed guard.

Unlike the Dahan side, which initially demanded that Gwangju be redeemed directly with money and silver, the conditions offered by Baekje on Pak Chang's side were very tempting.

As long as Pak Chang promised not to garrison more than 50,000 troops in Cheongju, Baekje would immediately hand over everything related to Cheongju, the most important thing being the population of the entire city and the backup of all the building facilities, and the way to open some special buildings.

And the negotiation envoys that Cao Yi encountered were the same as Mo Xiaobai's side, not so much to redeem the city, but to delay time.

"Want to persuade Silla to retreat first and relieve the pressure on the flanks and behind you?" Mo Xiaobai smiled and handed the two letters to Guo Jia beside him: "Feng Xiao thinks, how will Silla deal with himself?" ”

Guo Jia read the book and showed some deep thought: "My lord, Jia thinks that if there is no pressure from the lord, Silla is very likely to be persuaded by Baekje. ”

"Yes, of course Silla expects to accept it when it is good."

Mo Xiaobai sighed, no matter how he painted cakes for Silla, one thing would never change.

No matter how fierce Silla and Baekje are, it is also a family affair of Samhan.

Baekje really had to play the emotional card and at the same time recognize Silla's rule over Cheongju, so there would be no need for Silla to stalemate any longer. Not to mention anything else, the cost of an expedition of 100,000 troops is not a small amount.

However, as soon as Silla retreats, it will immediately have a different stimulating change in the whole of Baekje.

The first to be affected must be Goryeo, even Silla itself has retreated, where does Goryeo find an excuse to send troops?

As long as Baekje is willing to pay another price, he can get Goryeo to withdraw its troops from the border.

At that time, Baekje will be able to devote all his energy to the confrontation with the Han and the Great Song Dynasty, and even if he can't recover the lost ground for a while, he can drag Mo Xiaobai here.

It's really dragged on for a year and a half, and it's better for Mo Xiaobai not to fight Baekje's idea.

"How can I put pressure on Silla with one hair and moving my whole body?"

"The lord might as well tell Silla that once they sign a contract first, we and General Cho will immediately withdraw our troops and return Naju and Gwangju to Baekje unconditionally."

Guo Jia opened his mouth, which was to draw salary from the bottom of the kettle.

Without the support of the Great Han and the Great Song in the rear, Silla would not be an opponent of Baekje even if it was taken by surprise.

Once the Huaxia coalition forces directly withdraw their troops, who will Baekje, which is no longer in danger of destroying the country, vent its anger to?

The answer is obvious.

Thinking of this, Mo Xiaobai laughed and said, "Feng Xiao's words are to force Silla and Baekje to completely turn their faces." ”

"If the three Han lotus roots are allowed to break the thread, won't it harm the interests of the lord?"

"Haha, according to what Fengxiao said, take a pen and paper, and I will personally write a letter to General Cao and Master Park."

………

A quarter of an hour later, the two wild geese flew to their respective destinations with Mo Xiaobai's handwritten letter.

In the middle of the night, Cao Yi and Pu Chang received a reply.

The letter to Cao Yi naturally analyzed the current situation in detail, and bluntly said that the Han and Song families must advance and retreat together. As for the one given to Park Chang, it is not so complicated, first congratulate Silla on getting his wish to expand the territory, and then attach the sentence 'threat'.

Mo Xiaobai believes that Pu Chang can understand it, because this truth is not very deep, but it is easy to be deceived by the immediate interests.

"Tell your father-in-law, we will definitely advance and retreat with him."

The same reply, from two different mouths, both Cao Yi and Pu Chang all maintained the same attitude as when they planned the battle situation, and did not have more thoughts because of the momentary victory.

This also led to the next few negotiations between the four parties, and the faces of the ministers in the Baekje negotiations became more and more solemn.

The division plan was declared a failure.

When Mo Xiaobai ended the negotiations on the grounds of a call for a war, the Baekje envoy to Gwangju finally relented: "Since the earl covets the southern islands, he should know that Baekje has at least 200 large and small islands, how can he hand them all over to the earl?" If the earl really liked one or two islands, the envoy could return to the prime minister on his behalf, and leave it to the prime minister and the king to decide. ”

Mo Xiaobai raised his eyebrows: "One or two? ”

"Yes, it can only be one or two small islands."

Mo Xiaobai nodded first, then spread out a map of Baekje and drew two circles in the archipelago: "Just these two." ”

The Baekje envoy took a look, and a black line appeared on his forehead again.

Jindo, Wando.

Two of the largest islands off the southwest coast of Baekje!

"Do you know that the area of these two islands is no less than that of the completed state?"

"What's the problem? I just see that they are not small in size and close to each other, otherwise what do you think I should choose? Why not choose a desert island that can't even cover the village? ”

"It's really difficult for a strong man to do this."

"Then I don't care, there are my subordinate garrisons on the two islands right now, you can take it, and I naturally won't ask for it again if you can take it back."

Mo Xiaobai still didn't let go, but his voice changed as soon as he changed his voice: "Of course, if you Baekje are really reluctant to cede it, it is not impossible to lease it to me as a leased land." ”

Rent land?

Mo Xiaobai's words made the envoy's expression change slightly.

Houses can be rented, fields can be rented, and can Dynasty Islands also be rented?

In any case, it is much better to lease in name than to divide a large piece of land outright.

In his heart, he secretly said that the chief manager of the Earl of the Han Dynasty was reasonable, and the envoy couldn't help asking: "The Earl said that the lease, can there be a charter?" ”

"But if you rent two islands, what more charter do you want? Lease these two islands to me for one gold a year, and the term is a hundred years. ”

Mo Xiaobai gave a very simple plan, and did not forget to add: "But if you want to recover these two islands in a hundred years, all the facilities on the islands will have to be compensated according to the price, and then a certain amount of compensation will be given according to the prosperity at that time." ”

"The Earl is saying, a gold a year?"

"Too little? Looks like you really don't want these two islands? ”

"The petty ministers are humble and light, and this matter has to be clarified with the prime minister."

"Then go and get back to me in two days, otherwise instead of seeing the contract, you'll receive another letter."

Saying what he really wanted, Mo Xiaobai was also relieved in his heart.

Directly let Baekje cede the island, even if Baekje is Ken, there is a high probability that it will be ceded to Dahan in the end. The lease is different, Mo Xiaobai can sign a lease contract with Baekje as the lord of Big Dream City.

As long as the contract is reached, Zhendao and Wando will also officially belong to Mo Xiaobai.

This is another form of geographical division after the lord's domain, the dynastic fiefdom, and the alliance station.

Other countries lease land, that is, concessions.

Once the second island starts, the biggest shortcoming of Big Dream City will also be made up at this moment. Whether it is the naval construction that Mo Xiaobai wants, or the marine aquatic products, they will be carried out around the two islands.
