Chapter 445 Conditions
"Sincerity?"
Daluo, who had been dealing with people from the Central Plains several times, instinctively grasped the strangeness, stopped the wine glass, and couldn't help but hesitate: "Well, I don't know what sincerity Xiao Shilang Pei wants to refer to? I'm all Turkic men from Luzhi, and I'm not used to the twists and turns of you Confucian scholars in the stomachs of you Central Plains. Just ask me directly if you have something to do."
Some of the Hu chiefs who were flushed and red in their faces turned their heads and the atmosphere became strange for a moment.
Pei Shiju tapped the table with his index finger gently, thinking that he really knew it with admiration for three days. After several wastes, the big logic of Ashi, who had always been unfaithful, has now developed a little bit of cunning, but all of this is still under his control. So Pei Shiju smiled slightly and said, "Da Khan, don't be nervous. We are here to fight against rebellion for the Khan, not to force it to ask for anything. We just want to explain some things to the Khan so that it will not be troublesome to argue in the future, and... it is quite a tragic."
Daluo looked at him calmly for a while, then suddenly grinned:
"Brother Pei underestimated me. With the friendship between you and me, some trivial matters cannot hurt the mercy. You just want to say it! To be honest, I was going to take a desperate bet and take pictures to burn my jades. As a result, you came. You saved my life and the lives of these warriors under my tent. As long as you don't want too much, I can agree to everything!"
After speaking, Daluo narrowed his eyes and glanced at the Hu chiefs. The chiefs also saw the meaning clearly and bowed their heads and pondered without saying a word.
He said generously, but some of the meanings are worth pondering.
First, he said, "small things do not hurt the feelings", does that mean that small things can be agreed upon, and if it is a big thing, he must "consider" it carefully? Second, he clearly tied his life with the lives of other chiefs under his command, which means warning them that it is not only him who sent troops to protect. Everyone here, one counts one, and they are all protected because of the Qi people's interference in the war situation? If you offend Qi people at this critical moment? The consequences are that everyone cannot afford... The core point is to focus on his great logic as the center? Advance and retreat together!
Pei Shiju also put down the wine cup? He wiped off the wine stains on his lips with his sleeves and said solemnly:
"Foreign ministers do not need the Khan to cede much benefit? No Khan signs any treaty that is powerless and humiliating, such as cede land compensation, and pay tribute to the world? None of these things is needed... If we really do this, wouldn't it mean to coerce the Khan? In this way, even if the division is famous, it will become unknown in the eyes of the Turkic people. The most important thing is that the Khan's reputation will be damaged. There will inevitably be tribes who will be disappointed with the Khan because of this? They choose to turn to the photo, and then this chaos will not be pacified. Our king's army raises troops to help the Khan to seek rebellion, but comes to seek peace, not to seek scolding on the grassland or bring hatred."
Daluo was so dizzy that he was surrounded by it and choked for a while? Asked:
"So, what exactly does your emperor want to do?"
"Our Majesty wants to make three rules with the Khan."
Pei Shiju looked calm.
After all, Daluo was one of the few Turks who had been exposed to Central Plains culture? Although his knowledge was not as good as his uncle Tuobo Khan, he still knew the source of the three chapters of the law. He was surprised when he heard Pei Shiju wanted him to cede the land? Later, when he heard him say that they didn’t want anything but just seeking peace, he felt even more incredible!
Is Master Qi confused?
Anyway, big logic is not a single word.
"How to make three rules?"
He asked carefully? His eyes were like a knife? He stared straight at the face of the little Minister Pei? He seemed to see some flaws in his face... Pei Shiju seemed to have not noticed the nervousness of the Turkic Khan at all, and still talked happily: "So, for the sake of good neighborliness and friendship between the two countries, my emperor only needs the Khan to make some promises in front of everyone."
"Speaking."
"First, the eight Khitans and Kumoxi in western Liaoning and southern Liaoning had already been called vassals to the Great Qi since the second year of Wuping of the Great Qi. Sumo Mai, near the Songhua River, also sent envoys to submit to the Great Qi. However, all the Turkic Khans had regarded these tribes as private property of slaves, and Tuobo Khan even used this as an excuse to declare war on the Great Qi. We do not want this misunderstanding to continue. Those subordinates on the grassland, those from the Turks, those from my Great Qi, must be completely handed over... In addition, after the victory, we also hope that the Great Khan would hand over several captive chiefs who rebeled against the Great Qi."
Daluo's pupils shrank, and then said:
"Can."
"Secondly, my emperor will send people to various countries in the Western Regions. I hope the Khan will provide convenience at that time... Of course, as a reward, our dynasty will expand the border market exported to the Turks." Pei Shiju paused and said, "Although the Turks' territory is large, the Turks are nomadic in all directions, one does not cultivate or smelte. If our dynasty does not open the border market, once the Turks are robbed, the Turkic people will fall into the dilemma of having no clothes to wear and no pot to cook. Once the black disaster or white disaster occurs, a large number of tribes will suffer a sharp decline in population or even extinction. The Great Qi court expanded the border market. This is a good thing for the two countries to promote peace and mutual benefit. What does the Khan think?"
"You have already put two things together into one thing." Daluo smiled bitterly, and his tone was quite dissatisfied: "Your merchants are very smart. Although they can sell things we need, their hearts are also very dark. They dare to ask for a good horse if they have less than ten kilograms of iron pot, and they dare to ask for a sheep if they have two silk. Every time our tribes drive away a large number of cattle and sheep, they finally only change less than half a cart of things."
Pei Shiju nodded and said:
“We will formulate standard prices for all essential materials based on the season.
"So Dahan agreed?"
"Of course, why don't you agree?" Daluo felt a little frustrated and said in a muffled voice: "If you have any conditions, please tell me together."
"Sweat is refreshing," Pei Shiju squinted his eyes and smiled a little cunning, "There is the last thing, which is the most important thing... I have invested a lot in order to help the Sweat. Including the Yan North Army, we dispatched about 30,000 soldiers, including the military and auxiliary soldiers, and can be claimed to be 100,000 soldiers to the outside world. As an ally, the Sweat here is slightly weak..."
He paused on purpose:
"Isn't Pei underestimating Dahan? Only a thousand people can fight under Dahan's tent, right?"
Daluo knew that Pei Shiju was bargaining with him clearly, so he still had to bite the bullet and deal with it:
"Yes, the photograph and the Duluo Hou besieged me. Many tribes were afraid of them and abandoned me. Those who did not leave were almost killed in battle, and the number of people who lost their troops was severely reduced." He opened his arms and looked at the Hu chiefs who were surrounding him on both sides and said, "All tribes have suffered heavy losses and need to have a good rest. I can recruit some young tribes in the name of the Turkic Khan to fight for me, but the force they dispatched would not be much."
Daluo thought he had seen through Pei Shiju's intentions.
I think what Pei Shiju wants is nothing more than the dominance of this war. At worst, he can give it to him all!
Unexpectedly, Pei Shiju shook his head and said:
"No, Khan still has 100,000 tigers and wolves to summon."
"100,000?" Daluo was surprised and then laughed: "Don't laugh at me when Mr. Pei. If I could easily summon 100,000 tribes, how could I end up in this miserable situation today?"
"Did the Khan forget the place where the Datou Khan Ashina Seijue? Didn't he swear to support the Khan? He is the strongest Khan in the west of the Turks. With his efforts, is it still difficult for the Khan to summon 100,000 tribes?" Pei Shiju said for granted.
This time, not only Hu chiefs shook their heads, but even Daluo couldn't help but sigh and said, "Although Xiao Shishang, although he doesn't understand my current situation, this Datou Khan supports me on the surface, but actually has ulterior motives... To be honest, he has actually planned to split the Turks for a long time and has always wanted to compete with the royal court with the power left by his father Mo Hedu Yehu, with ulterior motives. He supports me just to use me as an excuse to find a reason to split the family openly, not to truly support him."
"—It doesn't matter whether he really supports Da Khan. What's important is that he is indeed capable of summoning 100,000 troops." Pei Shiju interrupted Da Luobian's words and cut the deadline: "No matter how strong he has or how powerful he has, no matter how powerful he has, he has not yet separated, so he is still a minister of Da Khan and he has to listen to Da Khan. Da Khan only needs to raise his arms and shout, and he must follow him, and he can't help!"
Daluo was stunned and then said:
"I'm afraid... he won't listen."
"Then just destroy him!" Pei Shiju stood up, walked straight to Daluo, grabbed his arm, and the scholar's eyebrows were filled with murderous aura: "If he doesn't listen to Dahan, Dahan can give it to us. We will help Dahan destroy him. I heard that this person is on the other side of the river now? We sent troops across the river overnight and surrounded him directly. He said the rest and he would never forget it."
Daluo's expression on his face became even more shocked. He wanted to leave directly, but Pei Shiju grabbed his arm.
Both of them were in the same place and could not stand stalemate.
...
In the end, Pei Shiju won, so Dalu weighed the pros and cons, but finally chose to work with Qi Jun to find a headache.
A circle of people in the tent discussed countermeasures, and after a while, they announced that they would go down and prepare.
Pei Shiju vomited for a long time, and found another basin of cold water to wash his face, and then he recovered from a little sober. He put on his fur and left the tent. A lonely moon hung in the sky, dark clouds half-covered, and the bitter wind rolled from the side, making his cheeks hurt, but Pei Shiju wanted to laugh to the sky, but this desire was held down by him. After a long time, Chi Luorong, who was covered in clothes, said without comment:
"Why did Mr. Pei promise to go out with these conditions? Tell him directly, wouldn't it be enough to ask him to do his best? We should help him regain the Khan throne to fight against the rebels, and he should give us benefits!"
"Hahaha, you don't understand!" Pei Shiju raised his eyebrows, and he had a rare look of joking: "It is absolutely impossible for the Turks to be unified again. Daluo would just occupy the southern part of the desert and form a three-legged tripod... As for the benefits I promised, the court would win them over sooner or later, and there would be no difference between making a promise and making a promise and making a promise and making a promise and making a promise!"
Chi Luorong was still puzzled. Pei Shiju stretched out a finger and said, "The Turks will be divided into pieces in the future. Sooner or later, we will fight for one of them to surrender. To eliminate the threats from the Turks to the frontier, either destroy them or assimilate them. We do not allow benefits, how could they be willing to work for us? Should we push them back to the arms of our enemies?"
"A unified grassland country has too much destructive power. They must not be allowed to show such signs again!" Pei Shiju looked at the army gradually gathering at the ridge, and his eyes became firm, "Not allowed at all!"
PS: I recommend a book by a friend, "Fu Yanhan", I won't praise it here. The main reason is that I asked him why he wanted me to push it, and he said that he was using waste.
So, I'll just go through the form here...
