Ding Kui greeted Huasong in the water village, and the Nanmara Prefecture Navy returned to Chunlu Bay.

"So the battle plan started with General Ding, and I thank you on behalf of the state navy!" Hua Song finally had the last laugh.

"If you hadn't contained the enemy's naval army, and there were no naval soldiers to fight the enemy, how could the last general have taken down this village, and Huada people don't have to be polite. Ding Kui didn't dare to take credit.

"Speaking of which, in order to defeat Jikou this time, the casualties of the naval army are indeed not small, I hope that your army can help defend the Chunluwan Water Village, and I will do my best to clear the enemy troops on the Tongyuan River. ”

The number of troops that the state navy can mobilize is limited, and the recruits are managed by the base camp of the theater, and basically give priority to replenishing the army, so Hua Song had to turn to Ding Kui for help.

"This is no problem at all, is it okay for me to leave the 75th Division to garrison for a while?" Ding Kui knew the importance of the water village and did not refuse.

The 75th Division was led by Yu Zhong for a period of time, not to mention defending on the shore, even if it was not a problem to board the ship to fight, Hua Song was very satisfied with Ding Kui's decision.

With the formation of the 114th, 115th, and 116th Divisions, the 111th, 112th, and 113th Divisions joined the siege, built a camp in the west of the city, and sent new recruits to conduct siege drills.

There are Kongjia Army and the 21st Army in the north, the main force of the Eighth Army in the east, Ding Kui and Chunlu River in the south, and the 12th Army and the hinterland of Nannuma Prefecture in the west.

Hao Dong came to negotiate with Ding Kui, hoping to open up a road for his army, let them board the ship and evacuate at the Lengshui Slope of Juyang City, and the condition they gave was to leave all their belongings and weapons and equipment.

"Your only way out is to surrender, all the property and weapons and equipment are not enough to compensate the people of Nanqiu County, if you want to return home safely, ask your court to take money to ransom it. ”

Ding Kui refused very dryly.

No one expected that the battle situation in Nanqiu County would change so dramatically in just one day, and before the end of the armistice, Yudi was still planning to attack, intending to eliminate several Shaodian troops.

However, because he ignored a small sneak attack, Ding Kui boldly interspersed the occupied areas of his own army, directly attacked the places where his army must save, disrupted all his strategic and tactical plans, and finally lost all his mistakes.

There are also negotiations in Zhenjing City, and this time Ji Yu found Shao Dianxiao's Prince's Mansion.

"Brother Xiao," (Shaodian Xiao's older age) Ji Yu's attitude has changed significantly, "The king of my country is reasonable, and agrees that the matter of Prince Man needs to be investigated clearly, so as to give an explanation to the people of the world, as for the matter of compensation, we can wait for the results of the investigation to come out." ”

"Well, well, my king understands the righteousness, is just, and has always been friendly with my country, and this decision is beneficial to the people of both countries. ”

Shao Dianxiao secretly complained in his heart: If you lose the battle, you will be reasonable, and tens of thousands of soldiers and horses will hold our hands and want to talk about it later, and you will take advantage of all the good things.

"That's right, our country of in-laws, it's too hurtful and angry for everyone to fight each other, so let's take the initiative to withdraw the troops in Nanqiu County and stop the armed confrontation from now on. "I never ask for it, but blindly promise.

"Hehe, Brother Yu Xian seems to have forgotten one thing. ”

"Hmm, what's the matter?"

"On the border between the two countries, your country's Northern Route Army is attacking our border county, which has caused many casualties in our country and dozens of villages and towns have been burned down, what should be done over there?

As for the troops of your country in Nanqiu County, they have done a lot of burning, killing and looting, and our soldiers and civilians have suffered greatly, and they need to be punished according to our laws. ”

Now Shaodian is stiff, and since his army has trapped the enemy, he can't let them go back if he says anything.

"His Royal Highness Prince Xiaoyao, we will handle our troops by ourselves, so we won't worry about your country's expense; the Northern Route Army doesn't know the situation yet, and I'll tell them when I go back, I shouldn't continue to attack." ”

Ji Yu found that the other party was not very face-saving, and the expression on his face began to stiffen.

Clucking, Shaodian Xiao bent his fingers and tapped on the tabletop, and the servants who were waiting on the side left the living room one after another.

"His Royal Highness Prince Haichao, the Ming people don't say dark words, you should know what the situation of your army is, the Eighth Army is guarding outside the city, and your army can only fight to the death except surrender.

At this point in the war, it is almost impossible to change the will of the soldiers on the front line, and even if you convince the Prince Regent, you will not be able to save the troops of Nanqiu County.

Surrender reduces casualties. He focused on reminding the last sentence, he didn't want to go around the bend with himself.

"Your country is very unfriendly like this, when no one cares about my country? If you don't want to talk about it, it's okay, I can talk to Shaodian Yong. "I don't hide my bottom line.

"You are threatening us like this, I advise you not to use the rebels as bargaining chips, the people of the Shaodian family will not lack backbone, if you dare to stand on the side of the rebels, it will be tantamount to declaring war on our country! I have heard that the Mongol country does not seem to be idle, and they will be very happy to see our two countries start a full-scale war. ”

Shaodian Xiao knew that he had this hand, and he had already thought of a countermeasure.

"Is Shaodian so depraved that he wants to join forces with the enemy?"

"Meng Guo attacked the in-laws and allies, is this a good look? There are some things I don't want to say clearly, no matter how weak the Shaodian Kingdom is, it is not allowed to bully people than others, and your country does not have a correct attitude, and in the end it will only eat bitter fruits. Shao Dianxiao didn't give a good face.

The two broke up in private negotiations.

Zhongwang Governor Changle County, Shaodianzhi here urged Wanjia to organize soldiers and horses to support Dingguo County, and suddenly received a secret letter at noon, which was the new king of Shaodian asking him to rush to the border of his country immediately.

"Hello, cousin, I didn't expect my little nephew to see you again so soon. It turned out that it was Ji Man who asked him to meet.

"Hehe, you and I are two families, you don't have to be so clear in terms of generation, you can call me a big brother in private. "Jiman's attitude is very different from the last time.

One of them belongs to the Shaodian family, and the other is from their own family, according to their respective families, regardless of the elders and juniors, normally speaking, they are based on age.

"Oh, since the eldest brother has this kind intention, the younger brother is not welcome. "Shao Dianzhi just arrived a little unexpectedly.

But he is also a prince, and he doesn't like to call Jiman, who is also a prince and of the same age, his cousin, and he is happy to see the changes in the other party.

"I heard that Zhenjing City is now in charge of the government when he was a young man, and he also stuffed his son into the commander's mansion, which seems to be chaotic, which has caused the whole country to complain. ”

Shao Dianzhi's eyes lit up.

There's a play!

The other party's words are rich in information, and his country's attitude towards the orthodox battle for the throne of Shaodian has changed.

"Yes, no!," he said, in his own words.

"That's right, because the former president of the Knights' General Assembly did cause a lot of resentment throughout the country, and it turned out that he was deliberately causing trouble for his own selfishness. ”

"It's not right because the government of the Shaodian Kingdom has always been taken care of by the father, and it is not the turn of the rebel Shaodian to get involved, but it is a pity that the important ministers of the original dynasty were deceived and coerced by it, and had to confront the orthodoxy of our country. ”

He is really not polite at all, Shaodian said that Shaodian Yong's vein is rebellious, and he also said that Shaodian is rebellious, and his foothold is to emphasize that Shaodian Yong is an orthodox king.

"Hehe," Ji Man smiled slightly, "The heir to the throne should at least have the ability to distinguish between right and wrong, and ignorant children can only be deceived into becoming puppets, how can they have the posture of a king? ”

That's right! Shao Dianzhi waited for this sentence, he was called rebellious for more than half a year, and there were few people in the outside world who agreed with him, and his statement was very important to him.

"The eldest brother's insight is worthy of being the prince of a country. ”

"Eh, don't say that, my brother is not the prince of my own country, which makes it easy to misunderstand. Although Ji Man knew that the other party didn't have much sincerity, he still smiled.

"Oh, the little brother really didn't expect it!" Shao Dianzhi pretended to be surprised, "In my opinion, you should be the prince of your own country, but it's nothing, sooner or later, the crown prince will be the eldest brother." ”

Of course, I didn't come to you this time to talk about the prince of our country. ”

Shao Dianzhi pricked up his ears.

"Do you know about my humiliation?"

"Well, my little brother has heard of it. Shao Dianzhi suddenly understood.

"Actually, I just want to get justice, as for compensation or anything, I don't pay attention to it, just rely on the relationship between you and me, just give me justice, I don't need compensation. ”

"The younger brother believes in the eldest brother. Shao Dianzhi found that he couldn't say anything.

After all, it came too suddenly, Shaodian Yong didn't have a specific explanation with him, on the surface, it seems that it is very cost-effective to admit that he was humiliated in exchange for his own country's recognition of Shaodian Yong as orthodoxy, and the meaning of the two is several grades apart.

Moreover, Ji Man made it clear that he could not compensate, which meant that he could talk about it, and the bottom line was very low, but he had to be cautious about the face of the country.

"I know that this matter has nothing to do with you, and I am not using it as a bargaining chip, but I just want to get your condolences. ”

Ji Man stopped and stared straight at Shao Dianzhi.

"Ah, I'll report to my father as soon as I go back, and I'm sure my father will care about my eldest brother. ”

Shao Dianzhi said it beautifully, but in fact, it means that he didn't say anything.

"Alas, it's still the virtuous brother who is enthusiastic. As for the brother, you can talk to your father that tax cuts and deregulation can bring great benefits to your own country, at least much better than the one who does not know how to respect people. Ji Man deliberately said a little vaguely.

"Don't worry, eldest brother, your experience is well known, who doesn't sympathize with it? If you can, younger brother is willing to vent his evil anger for you. ”

Shaodianzhi is not a rookie in the first negotiation, she knows how to take measure, she can understand what others mean, but she does not leave a handle on the other party, and she grows rapidly far away from Shaodianyong.

"Very good, I think the next opportunity to meet will come soon. Ji Man expressed satisfaction with the talks.

"By the way, if you really want to help me vent my bad anger, it's not difficult to say, as long as you want to, you can do it. ”

Shao Dianzhi asked curiously, "Oh, what does the eldest brother need the younger brother to do?"
