Chapter 60: Women Disguising Men
"Finally General Wen Xin will meet the Lord of the City."
Qin Hu saw the city lord named Suna in a residential house under the city, and quickly saluted him with his hands in hand.
What is surprising is the appearance of the city lord. Qin Hu originally thought that this warrior who was determined to defend Liaodong was a big man with big muscles and a round waist, with a ferocious appearance.
But what appeared in front of him was a handsome young man with sharp eyebrows and sharp eyebrows. Judging from his fair skin and thin figure, he actually had a bit of a hypocritical temperament.
By the time he spoke, Qin Hu was already sure that this person was a woman.
"Wen Xin, who are you from Wende?"
Qin Hu hurriedly said: "The general is a distant relative of Wen De. He has not been with him for a long time. Now he is just a centurion, so you don't recognize me."
"okay."
Su Na held the letter in his hand, looked at the ring again, paced back and forth in the room, then frowned and said, "What do you mean you came to see me? Is there anything wrong with my elder brother?"
Qin Hu quickly took out the letter of surrender from his arms and said: "Not only am I here, Prime Minister Wende is also here in person. He is now in the military camp of the Yu Dynasty and can meet you tomorrow."
"What, what happened in the Dayu Dynasty military camp?"
Qin Hu handed over the letter of surrender: "The emperor has proposed peace to the Yu Dynasty and professed vassalage to the emperor of the Yu Dynasty. This is also a tradition that has been going on for hundreds of years. We are a small country after all. Please take a look at it."
Su Na was not particularly surprised by this, because the Liaodong Kingdom had always professed its vassalage to the Yu Dynasty, and sometimes even to the Tuque Khan, so there was nothing surprising.
Qin Hu sighed: "The front line was defeated, and the Yu Dynasty besieged Pingjian City, so the emperor decided to abandon the four counties of Liaodong, Nansu, Xincheng, Xuantu and Jian'an, and ordered the withdrawal of troops."
"Because the Yu Dynasty was besieged by millions of troops and there was no news, the emperor and the general were afraid that you would not believe it, so they sent Prime Minister Wende to come in person to discuss peace and read the imperial edict to you."
Su Na looked at the order of surrender, then at the letter and the ring, the doubts on his face getting thicker and thicker.
However, she did not object to Qin Hu's proposal for peace, because the people of Liaodong Kingdom had been living in dire straits during these years of war with powerful countries like the Yu Dynasty.
Even though they captured a large amount of supplies from the Yu Dynasty, it was only because the upper class was getting rich and the country's armaments were unprecedentedly powerful.
But as for the common people, the land is so vast, the people are in dire straits, and their household registration has plummeted by half. This battle is really not suitable to continue.
But the eldest brother Su Wen is a ruthless person. Even if it reaches this point, he will not make the decision to cede land and pay compensation, right? Is there really a disastrous defeat ahead?
"Things have really come to this point. I think as long as we persist for a few months, when the rains flood in the autumn and the grain roads are muddy, the Yu Dynasty will definitely fall into a more painful situation. Maybe they will withdraw their troops themselves. Why do they need to cede the land like this?
Is it serious?"
Qin Hu coughed: "I heard that this is just a temporary measure. The Yu Dynasty is too far away from the bitter cold land like Liaodong. I didn't want to occupy it for a long time. We gave it to them today and waited until the Yu Dynasty's millions of troops evacuated.
, we can still take it back. There is no need to be reckless in fighting."
"Yes, there is no need to be reckless in fighting."
Su Na took a deep breath, turned around and said to Qin Hu: "You have worked hard all the way. Go down and have a rest. Let's wait until I see Prime Minister Wende tomorrow."
"As commanded."
After Qin Hu left, Su Na was silent for a long time. This matter was too big and too sudden, and she did not dare to act hastily.
Although she was a woman, she was trained to be a general since childhood and had a very resolute personality. She guarded Liaodong for several years, but the Yu Dynasty did not take any advantage of her.
It shows what kind of person she is.
And her name is not Suna at all, but Suna.
"Come here, send scouts to Pingyuan City quickly to find out the news. Even if you can't reach Pingyuan City, you still need to do more inspections."
"yes."
Liaodong City had long been isolated by the Yu Dynasty.
The millions of troops of the Yu Dynasty were cutting across the area to the west of the Yalu River. Although they did not capture any city, the traffic arteries were so tightly sealed that even flies could not escape.
If you send scouts to inquire about information, there is a high probability that nothing will be found.
If there wasn't enough food and grass in the city, she wouldn't have been able to hold on long ago.
Sure enough, one night passed and no news came back from the scouts. Su Na knew in her heart that she must have been captured by the Yu Dynasty again.
Early the next morning, she found Qin Hu again.
"Wen Xin, is Prime Minister Wen De really in the military camp of the Yu Dynasty?"
Qin Hu's expression changed: "Could it be that the Lord of the City is suspicious of the villain? Even if the villain has great courage, he would not dare to deceive you."
"Lord Wende and I have agreed that in half an hour, he will come to the city to meet you in person."
It was impossible for Suna to think that Wende could be captured alive, so her heart began to waver. As soon as Wende showed up, she felt that this matter was almost likely to be true.
"Okay, let's go to the tower immediately."
Qin Hu walked beside the female city lord and felt the valiant and heroic appearance coming from her body. He was a little fascinated. He thought that this Liaodong country was outside the Great Wall after all, and women were different from those in the Central Plains.
"Why are you always looking at me?" Su Na suddenly turned around and asked displeasedly.
"Oh, no, Lord City Lord, I am a daughter, I don't want to be a man, and my temperament is very different. I was distracted for a moment. Please forgive me."
"Ah, you..." Su Na blushed and rolled her eyes angrily: "He is indeed a brother of the Wende family. He is as sweet-tongued and has evil intentions. He should be beaten."
"Yes Yes Yes."
Su Na smiled indifferently and went up to the tower. Looking from a distance, she saw that there was indeed some movement in the military camp of Dayu Dynasty. A group of cavalry was slowly approaching here.
Soon after, the cavalry arrived at the top of the city. Su Na saw Wen De with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks, and her heart suddenly felt at ease.
"It seems that my eldest brother really doesn't want to fight anymore." She glanced back at Qin Hu, her beautiful big eyes full of loneliness.
Qin Hu thought to himself, it seems that she is tired of fighting!
