Chapter 239 Calculation

PreviousBack to directoryNext
 Fei Yi finally relaxed his tone, which made Wei Zhen and others relax immediately. At least today, Fei Yi is no longer clinging to the original conditions like before.

Reduce the cession of Shanggu County.

"Mr. Fei!" Wei Zhen said: "Let's reduce the Dai counties as well. This time we, the Wei Dynasty, have lost six counties. Our Wei Dynasty has suffered a great loss."

Wei Zhen speaks very politely, like the kind between friends.

"No, no, no..." Fei Yi shook his head and said, "I, a big man, have already made a lot of concessions, minus Shanggu County. If Fei goes back this time, he will definitely be punished by the emperor. Dai County will never do it."

Reduce it again."

Wei Zhen wanted to get one less county, and Fei Yi naturally wanted to get one more county. The two of them went back and forth like hawkers discussing business in the market.

"Leave off Daijun."

"No, Daijun cannot be reduced."

"Six counties are enough."

"That's not an extra Daijun."

"We, Wei, have suffered too much loss."

"My big man's losses are not small."

"..."

When the two were arguing, the Wei ministers next to them also followed Wei Zhen's tone, and their tone of voice became surprisingly good, and they spoke like Mr. Fei.

Just——

Even if one person faces the ministers of the Wei Dynasty, one mouth faces dozens of mouths.

Fei Yi still chose to persist.

Daijun——must be ceded.

The reason is very simple. Although the ministers of Wei State have said so much, it can be heard from their tone that they really want to succeed in the negotiation today.

This is very simple.

The people of Wei hope to exchange for Cao Rui, and six counties have already agreed, and there is no need for one more county.

Of course,

The most important thing is that Fei Yi is very optimistic about Daijun.

Because Daijun belongs to Youzhou,

In the northeastern part of Yanmen County,

Shanggu County is adjacent to the Yanshan line,

If you go south from Daijun, you can directly enter Zhuozhou after passing the Great Wall.

Although Han and Wei are currently in peace talks,

But sooner or later, war will break out between Han and Wei, and sooner or later the Han Dynasty will unify the Central Plains.

If you occupy Daijun, if you want to send troops to attack Wei in the future,

The Han Dynasty will have one more option to send troops to Cao Wei.

So——

Daijun must be won.

"Mr. Fei!" Wei Zhen said, "Daijun really can't be removed?"

"It's really not possible!" Fei Yi pretended to be embarrassed and said: "What I, the Emperor of Han Dynasty, proposed was to cede eight counties. Now Fei has made the decision without authorization, minus Shanggu County.

It is really difficult to reduce Daijun."

"Alas!" Wei Zhen pretended to sigh.

Although Fei Yi looked calm, he still couldn't help but feel nervous when he heard Wei Zhen's long sigh.

‘Can’t we discuss it today?’

Fei Yi was naturally a little worried.

Because the state of Wei had already agreed to the conditions proposed by the prime minister,

And they also gave me an extra three hundred carts of refined iron.

Fei Yi could have pushed the boat along.

He agreed easily to complete the task assigned to him by the Prime Minister.

But now,

He also wants to fight for the big man again.

But Wei Zhen's expression made Fei Yi a little worried.

Worrying that he insists on not letting Dai Jun,

Will it cause Wei to stop negotiations?

Just——

After Wei Zhen let out a long sigh,

But he also said with some embarrassment: "Mr. Fei,

In this case, we will not embarrass Mr. Fei."

...Fei Yi suddenly became nervous and looked forward to Wei Zhen's next words.

It's just that Wei Zhen deliberately spoke slowly.

This actually made Fei Yi a little anxious.

‘Say it quickly!’

‘Say that your Wei State agrees to cede Daijun.’

‘Say it quickly.’

Fei Yi was secretly looking forward to it, but Wei Zhen paused for a long time after finishing speaking.

Then he said helplessly: "It doesn't matter.

For the sake of the eternal alliance between Han and Wei,

I, the great Wei Dynasty, agree to your country’s release conditions, together with Daijun,

A total of seven counties will be ceded to your country."

Wei Zhen finished speaking,

His face was full of loss and grievance.

It felt like this generation of county was just a piece of meat on his body, but Fei Yi could finally be satisfied.

I breathed a long sigh of relief.

‘Seven Counties,

Plus three hundred cartloads of refined iron.’

‘This time after entering Wei, Fei finally completed the task assigned by the Prime Minister.’

Just when Fei Yi was secretly happy,

But Wei Zhen said again: "Mr. Fei, I, the Wei Dynasty, have agreed to cede the county to your country. I wonder if your country can make any more concessions..."

"???"

When Fei Yi heard this, he couldn't help but be stunned.

‘Wei Zhen, what are you going to do?’

But before Fei Yi could speak, Wei Zhen murmured: "We, the Wei Dynasty, have agreed to cede Daijun to your country, and I also ask your country to release the emperor of Wei Dynasty first." Wei Zhen's tone was very polite. And there is also a hint of pleading: "As long as I, the Emperor of Wei, return to Wei, I, Wei, will immediately withdraw all the garrison troops from Dai County in accordance with your country's requirements."

‘???’

‘What are you thinking about?’

Fei Yi was speechless. He naturally knew what Wei Zhen was planning. Let Cao Rui go first and then withdraw his troops from Dai County?

How is this possible?

If Cao Rui returns to Wei, will Wei still be able to fulfill the peace agreement?

Haha——

"No..." Fei Yi answered firmly: "The Wei Dynasty must first withdraw its garrison from Dai County. Later, Fei will send a message back to Chang'an and ask the emperor to send troops to take over Dai County;" Fei Yi said After a pause, he continued: "When will your country withdraw its troops from Daijun, and when will I, the great Han, release your king and ministers?"

"Mr. Fei..."

"This matter will never change."

Wei Zhen thought very simply, and thought of agreeing first, but as long as the emperor returns to Wei, who will care about your peace proposal, let alone Daijun, I am afraid that even the other six counties, and the Wei Dynasty may not really be able to do so. Give up.

At that time, all decisions had to be made according to the wishes of Emperor Cao Rui.

But——

He also didn't expect that Fei Yi would reject it so firmly.

"And..." Fei Yi said again: "Your country can only withdraw its garrison in Dai County, but not a single citizen, otherwise..." At this point,

Fei Yi's tone obviously increased his volume.

The meaning is very clear.

Wei can only withdraw your troops.

But you have to leave them all to me, common people, and don’t even think about leaving empty cities for me.

Siege the city and capture the territory,

What's the point of only occupying some empty cities?

Wei Zhen and others were suddenly in a dilemma.

Because they agreed to cede these counties, this was unanimously agreed by Sima Yi and others, but they meant to agree first, but they wanted the Han Dynasty to release Cao Rui.

If the Han Dynasty does not agree, and it is not possible, he can also choose to withdraw his troops and move the people away at will.

"Mr. Fei..." Wei Zhen was about to speak, but Fei Yi interrupted him and said, "This is my bottom line. If your country can accept it, the peace talks can continue. If your country cannot, Accept it;" Fei Yi said, pretending to be helpless: "Then Fei will be helpless."

Now Fei Yi knew very well that there must be no compromise at this time.

Since the Wei State has agreed to cede Daijun, it means that they are willing to cede prefectures and counties in exchange for their monarchs and ministers captured by the Han Dynasty.

You already know the other party’s bottom line, so just hold on and don’t let go.

What's more, Fei Yi is not a fool.

He naturally knew that once he agreed to release the people first and then withdraw the troops from the Wei State, it would leave a lot of trouble, and it would most likely allow the Han to continue fighting with the Wei State.

No——

This is absolutely not possible.

The Han Dynasty chose to negotiate this time because he wanted to end the war as soon as possible, but he did not want to let the war continue for the sake of Daijun.
