Chapter 2: Each has his own scheming (1)
Huang Taiji sent away most of the ministers who came to discuss the matter, leaving behind a few confidants, Jiergalang, Yuetuo, Fan Wencheng and others.
"Khan, the Ming court obviously knew that we had secretly negotiated peace with Chahar Mongolia. Otherwise, we would not have acted so quickly and took the initiative to negotiate peace. This was probably the Ming court in the past that he would have been eager for this, but now, judging from the style of the Ming court, he has always forced the other party to take the initiative to negotiate peace, and he rarely took the initiative to propose peace." Fan Wencheng analyzed.
Jiergalang said, "Mr. Fan said that Benbeile deeply feels the same. I think that if the Khan had not been reluctant to propose peace talks, he would have been afraid that the Ming court would not have taken the initiative to truce."
"The Ming Dynasty four years ago was corrupt inside and outside and its political system was corrupt. Looking at the current Ming Dynasty, new buds actually grew on the rotten trees, the country was peaceful and the world was full of purity. It was really unimaginable that Emperor Chongzhen had the power to turn the tide and prevent the tide from falling over the building. It was really unimaginable." Fan Wencheng couldn't help but sigh.
"Master Fan is a sensational statement. Emperor Chongzheng corrupted the court's principles and abolished the etiquette. Although he won some users, this is just a reflection of the past. In less than five years, the country of Central Plains will be the world of our Jurchens!" Yue Tuo glanced at Fan Wencheng disdainfully and said boldly.
"Yue Tuan, I have said so many times that Mr. Fan is a great sage and must not be so rude to Mr. Fan in the future!" Huang Taiji shouted angrily.
Yue Tuo responded quickly and stood aside in disappointment, glared at Fan Wencheng fiercely, and turned his head away.
"What are Fan Aiqing's concerns about the three-party talks ten days later?" Huang Taiji asked Fan Wencheng.
Seeing Huang Taiji asking him, Fan Wencheng hurriedly bowed and said, "Report to the Khan, soldiers come to block the enemy, and water comes to flood the earth. Since the Ming court has taken the initiative to propose a tripartite talk, it will inevitably bear some responsibility. As long as the Khan makes some concessions in time, if Chahar Mongolia agrees, it will naturally be in good health. If Chahar Mongolia does not agree, then the Ming Dynasty will put pressure on Chahar Mongolia. At that time, the Khan only needs to sit and watch the show."
"Mingting and Chahar Mongolia were originally from the same group. He would speak for us so kindly, one-on-two, why should we be angry with this peace talk?" Yue Tuo said dissatisfied.
"General Yue Tuo, the Ming court does not want to fight now, and no matter what concessions the Khan makes, Chahar Mongolia will not be satisfied, unless we return all our gains to Lin Danhan. Once the three-party peace talks are signed, the Ming Dynasty will have an additional responsibility to maintain this treaty. The Ming Dynasty will inevitably try its best to restrain Chahar Mongolia. With Lin Danhan's vengeful personality, it will inevitably be unbearable to bear the constraints of the Ming court. Sooner or later, Chahar Mongolia and the Ming court will break up one day, and this is the opportunity for my Dajin to conquer Mongolia." Fan Wencheng said.
Huang Taiji knew Lin Dan's character that he would be revenged, so he wanted to solve this potential enemy once and for all. However, now he was being stumbled by the Ming Dynasty, and I don't know when it will take to achieve this goal.
After taking a few medicines from Doctor Lu Xiao’s, Lin Danhan gradually recovered and was able to get out of bed and walk around, and was in good spirits.
Man Gui informed Ezhe about the news that the Ming Dynasty was willing to come forward and summoned the Later Jin and Chahar to conduct peace talks. Ezhe did not dare to make decisions about such a big deal, so he came to meet his father Lin Dan to have an idea.
Lin Danhan was very annoyed. The Ming Dynasty was a bit too much. He decided to discuss the three-party talks ten days later without notifying him in advance. This was simply an extremely disrespectful attitude towards Chahar Mongolia. Chahar Mongolia was not a subordinate of the Ming Dynasty. Why should we listen to the Ming Dynasty? The Ming Dynasty was too domineering.
After learning about this, Namuzhong kept fanning the flames among the tribe and instigated many Taiji people from the Chahar Mongolian tribe to resist the Ming Dynasty's three-party armistice talks.
Lin Dan was still angry, but he knew in his heart that if he hadn't been secretly negotiating with the Later Jin Dynasty and kicking Daming away, Daming wouldn't have treated him like this.
After all, it was his fault first. Lin Danhan could only accept such an arrangement after getting angry. Moreover, this seemed to be the best way to solve the current stalemate between the three parties. Revenge must be done when you have the strength!
Ten days later, the first round of armistice negotiations between Ming, Meng and Jin began.
Two days ago, Huang Jin and a dozen others, who were in charge of the emperor's order, escorted the cavalry from a battalion to Mangui's army. After learning about the battle situation and the situation in which the three parties were in detail from Mangui, they immediately devoted themselves to the intense negotiation preparations.
In order to prevent unnecessary conflict accidents, Chahar Mongolia and the Later Jin parties are not allowed to bring weapons to the negotiation venue, and the guards they carry can only rest in the prescribed areas designated by the Ming Dynasty and not wait to move without authorization.
Huang Taiji sent a negotiation team of ten people, led by Jiergalang and Fan Wencheng. Yue Tuo was too impulsive and imprisoned Huang Taiji, and there was no part in the negotiations in negotiations. Chahar Mongolia was mainly composed of Dasang Zai Deyan Jiwang, and Tu Taiji was the deputy, and he was also a negotiation team of ten people. Huang Jin was the negotiation envoy on the Ming Dynasty, and Xiong Rulin and several young officials who came to study. There were almost ten people.
The Ming Dynasty was the master, occupying the central position in the negotiation tent, and the negotiating envoys of Chahar Mongolia and the Later Jin were placed on both sides, without any objection.
After Huang Jin said his brief opening remark, the negotiations entered the substantive stage.
Deyan Jiwang, on behalf of Chahar Mongolia, proposed a series of eighteen requirements to the Later Jin Dynasty, including land return, war compensation, return of traitors, and captives.
As soon as Deyan Jiwang finished speaking, the face of the Negotiator of the Later Jin Dynasty suddenly changed color. Some wished to have a knife in their hands and slash Deyan Jiwang. It was obvious that he was defeated, and he would have done his best to let you go. Instead, he turned around and asked for something from the winner. He was simply overestimating his ability.
"Deyan Jiwang, if it weren't for my Tiancong Khan's order to withdraw troops that day, would you still have the chance to sit in this negotiating table so arrogantly?" Jirhalang accused angrily.
I remembered that in order to be surrounded by Jirgalang's army, forty thousand troops were trapped. If Ezhe had not led his army to rescue him, he would have died for his country. He was furious and said in his heart: "I, Chahar Mongolia and you, Dajinjing, do not violate the rivers. Why do you repeatedly invade the land of Chahar Mongolia and kill and enslave our people? You are the enemies of our Chahar Mongolians. We just want to return our own things. Is there anything wrong with this?"
"The spoils belong to the winners. If you lose, you should have the awareness of the loser. We will not give you any points of the things!" Jirhalang sneered.
Huang Jin hurriedly stood up to smooth things over and said, "Don't argue, both of you, what is the meaning of me? You exchanged opinions from both sides first. If you have any common points, we can talk slowly one by one. It doesn't matter if there is any difference, and it doesn't matter if there is any opinion. There is always a solution."
During the first day of negotiations, the Ming Dynasty always had to give three face, so Jirgalang also proposed more than a dozen corresponding conditions, including a ceasefire and withdrawal of troops and a small part of the occupied land, Chahar Mongolia gave up the pursuit of Dorgon and assisted in retrieval.
The most difficult thing in the negotiation is to start. As long as you start a good start, the next step will be much easier. Although both parties are extremely dissatisfied with the conditions proposed by the other party, they still found one or two places to talk about.
The Later Jin agreed to retreat the camp thirty miles to show sincerity in negotiations, and Chahar Mongolia also agreed to restrain his subordinates and no longer harass the Later Jin Dynasty.
These were all written into the negotiation memorandum on the first day of the tripartite talks, where Jirgalang, Deyan Jiwang and Huang Jin all signed their names on the memorandum.
Although there was no substantial progress on the first day, at least an oral agreement was reached, that is, during the tripartite talks, the negotiations did not break down for a day and both sides were not allowed to take action.
The struggle between the Later Jin and Chahar Mongol was ultimately a struggle of power. To grow and grow, the Later Jin naturally needed more land and population. The Ming Dynasty had the Great Wall to protect the northern border. The Later Jin did not have the ability to invade the mainland of the Central Plains, so it could only make the decisions of its own neighbors. Through marriage, military conquest and other means, the Later Jin annexed many Mongolian tribes, and its strength increased greatly. The Chahar Mongol was annexed many tribes by the Later Jin, and its population and territory were constantly eroded by the Later Jin. How could Lin Danhan bear tolerate his own territory and people becoming other people's land and people? Naturally, the Chahar Mongol and the Later Jin began to get into evil, and there was a war. Both were men with strong ambitions, and they could not tolerate two tigers in one mountain, so they naturally hated hostility and fought.
For Lin Dan, Huang Taiji is a robber who constantly robs his own land and people. Huang Taiji looks at Lin Dan. Only those with virtue are in this world. Lin Dan, you are briberous and unkind to your subordinates. And I am the virtuous person who comes to rescue the subordinates who are oppressed by you. I am just. Since I am just, then it is time to beat you. Your people and land should also belong to me.
Lin Danhan called Huang Taiji a bitch and stood up as a archway. Huang Taiji called Lin Danhan a tyrant. In fact, neither of them was good. The big fist in this world was just.
The negotiations entered the second day, and the issues of the negotiations on this day focused on the ownership of the Chahar Mongolian territory occupied by the Huang Taiji army.
Chahar Mongolian negotiator Deyan Jiwang naturally asked the Later Jin to return all the occupied grasslands and cities belonging to Chahar Mongolia. How could the Later Jin agree? Especially Huang Taiji promised to reward several places to the former Chahar Mongolian tribes who surrendered to him as a place for herds. After saying a word, how could he regret it? Besides, this is already land captured by the Later Jin Dynasty, how could he be willing to return it? Of course, Jierharang refused.
