Chapter 53: Taking Hostages

After seeing Li Yan away, Hong Madam quietly observed outside.

There have been troops outside that have begun to move closer to their homes.

The Hongmao smiled contemptuously and told her sisters: "Pack up the weapons and clothing, and we will travel far in two hours."

Li Yan brought his subordinates to the Beijing Camp again.

This time, before Wang Xuejun continued to show his intimacy, Li Yan said coldly in the lobby: "Because Wu Sangui may seduce the Qing Dynasty to invade the Central Plains, the situation changes, please do not delay it anymore because of the same Han compatriots. Now our emperor gives you two conditions. First, go to the Prince and be a commoner. Second, your army will all move to Fengtai Camp in Xishan."

Wang Xuejun was surprised by his frankness.

Negotiation means hiding one's own disadvantages. What does Li Yan mean when he comes up and says this?

Regardless of Wang Xuejun's surprised expression, Li Yan simply said openly: "Wu Sangui colluded with the Qing Dynasty and rebelled. We, the King of Rebellion, must send troops to quell the rebellion for the country and block the Qing Dynasty's invasion for the country. But after sending troops, you must never allow the existence of your army in the capital. So, please accept this condition."

At this moment, the prince Zhang Zhiji and others here finally understood why, for so many days, everyone suggested that Infinitus lead the soldiers of the Beijing camp who had recovered their strength to fight out, and Wang Xuejun refused because it would cause unnecessary casualties to the soldiers.

I also understood why Wang Xuejun refused Li Zicheng's original negotiation conditions so resolutely and sat firmly on Diaoyutai with confidence.

In love, he had long foreseen such a result. When he met Li Zicheng, he was forced to give in and had to give in.

For the common enemy of everyone and to prevent the Qing Dynasty from trampling the Central Plains repeatedly and slaughtering the people in the Central Plains, all of them developed a sense of hatred for the enemy.

They all looked at the head of the family with anticipation, hoping that he would accept this mediation for the sake of national justice.

However, Wang Xuejun said: "What if I don't accept it?"

As soon as these words were said, Zhang Zhi, Zhang Ziyan and everyone else had the urge to rush up and strangle this bastard to death.

When Li Yan heard this, the disappointed expression on his face was beyond words, and his pupils suddenly shrank: "Then you can use the 200,000 troops inside and outside the capital to annihilate your troops at all costs."

Then he looked at Wang Xuejun and suddenly said earnestly: "It's really that way, you will be the sinner of this Han man for the ages."

This is a heavy blow. Although I know that history cannot be changed for the time being, I will be seduced by Wu Sangui and break into the Central Plains. But I was still shocked by Li Yan's words.

Comrade.

Wang Xuejun looked at Li Yan again, and then nodded firmly: "Okay, in order not to allow the Qing Dynasty to invade the Central Plains, I will give up all my greed and accept your conditions."

Li Yan breathed a sigh of relief.

"I will tell you again. If you go to the San Customs, you will definitely lose. But I will give you a final decision. If you fail, I will carry the banner of the Anti-Qing Dynasty and rebuild the Ming Dynasty. I will lead millions of heroes in the Central Plains and never be willing to be a righteous man who is a barbaric national slave. If I don't expel the Tartars from the Central Plains, I will never die."

Hearing this sentence, Li Yan's eyes lit up. He understood that Wang Xuejun's heart would not let go, and his understanding of Wang Xuejun had completely changed.

"Okay, both sides have made a decision. The food you need has been prepared for you in Fengtai."

Wang Xuejun was also readily: "Give me another two thousand mule and horse carts, remember that they are mule and horse, not cow and donkey carts. This is not a negotiation condition, this is a transaction. In exchange, I will teach you all the swords, guns and armor that exists in the Jingying camp, as well as bulky cannons and various bulky firearms. If you cannot meet my conditions, I will burn them all."

Such conditions are simply too generous.

In the three hundred years of Beijing, the strengthening of the emperors of all dynasties was not beneficial to them.

In their warehouse, the ordinary swords, guns and armor piled up can equip the army of 200,000.

There are a wide variety of firearms there, including those who are most familiar with firearms. Some of them cannot name or use them.

Not to mention anything else, there are thousands of cannons that turn the entire huge military city wall into hedgehog-like cannons.

And I don’t know how many of those small tiger cannons are.

Now Li Zhicheng's army, which is known as one million, is still a group of beggars.

An old sheepskin coat is their protection, and a jujube stick is their weapon.

And elm spray is a disposable so-called cannon that was illuminated by Laoshan elm, which is already a killer weapon of the peasant army.

If this huge arms equipment can be obtained, the combat effectiveness of the entire peasant army will rise sharply. We will have real confidence in dealing with Wu Sangui and the Qing Dynasty.

Li Yan walked up excitedly and saluted Wang Xuejun respectfully for the first time.

Wang Xuejun smiled and moved aside: "Don't thank me just because you took advantage."

Li Yan solemnly said to him: "I am not thanking you, but thanking you for your original intention of conscience, but thanking you for your responsibility for this people in the world of Han."

Wang Xuejun was a little flattered by being praised by one person, especially the last man behind the Ming Dynasty.

The two sides made a successful agreement, and Li Yan immediately ordered a subordinate to rush into the imperial city to inform Li Zhicheng of the results of the negotiation.

Li Zhicheng was relieved when he heard the result of this negotiation.

And he was even more excited by the fruitful results brought to him by Li Yan's unexpected deal.

Without hesitation, without delaying for a moment, he immediately dropped two thousand large trucks under his own troops, all of which were good mules and horses.

At this point, Li Zhicheng is also a kind and honest person.

During this period, in front of Li Yan, he ordered Jack to send his most capable confidant to inform Sun Chao, who was outside Chaoyang Gate, that he immediately led the fleet south, and after joining Li Yue, he took the opportunity to occupy Tianjin Guard and pick up his team of troops.

Then they rushed back to Shandong together.

Faced with such an arrangement, Li Yan just sneered.

"You can't escape if you want to run."

Wang Xuejun smiled mysteriously: "Just wait. I want to run away at that time, but you can't stop me even if you want to stop me."

"Hao Yaoqi's 50,000 troops are not vegetarians."

"He will be unable to make up for himself by then, and eating meat is useless."

"You are so confident that we will have a big defeat?"

"Not only will there be a big defeat, but I dare to assert that you can't even stand firm in Beijing and go back to your hometown."

Li Yan frowned, snorted, and stopped quarreling with him.

All the big carts entered the military camp, and Li Yan stood opposite Wang Xuejun: "I have met all the conditions you want, so please move to the camp now."

Wang Xuejun simply nodded: "That's it, but I have a condition."

Li Yan's pupils shrank: "What conditions?"

Wang Xuejun smiled and said, "In order to ensure your sincerity, I am going to detain you as my hostage."
