Chapter 287 Dividing the spoils, delusional peace talks
Mei Sanniang came out of Hangu Pass, but she still hadn't reacted.
"We can only go back first!"
Su Qingyun's conditions are too harsh.
All the fellow apprentices from the Armored Sect will join the Qin Dynasty. This is not something she can decide.
Mei Sanniang still had some confidence in persuading them not to serve the King of Wei anymore.
But let them join Qin and work for their former enemies, even betraying their former country.
Mei Sanniang can't do it.
Back at the military camp, the people at the armored gate saw Mei Sanniang's sad look and couldn't help but stepped forward and asked.
"Senior sister, don't be so discouraged. It's only been a day or two and it's normal that we couldn't find anyone who could heal Senior Brother Dianqing. We still have time."
"No, I have a solution, but..."
Mei Sanniang said and shook her head.
"Is there a way? Then why are you looking so sad, senior sister?"
A lot of people don't quite understand.
"I went to find Su Qingyun. He has a way to cure senior brother."
"What! Senior sister, you..."
Everyone looked at each other in shock. Unexpectedly, Mei Sanniang actually went to find Su Qingyun.
"Is he definitely going to save senior brother?"
Mei Sanniang shook her head: "He has conditions."
"What's the condition? If it's possible, I can agree to it."
"He wants to wear armor and enter the Qin Kingdom, and hand over the training methods of Wei soldiers."
Mei Sanniang planned to discuss the matter with them when she came back this time, so she didn't hide it.
"How is this possible!"
Some people immediately objected, betraying the country and betraying their comrades. How could they do such a thing?
Some people are hesitant.
"But we have no other way to save senior brother."
"If senior brother wakes up and knows our decision, he will definitely not agree!"
Because of this matter, everyone in the armored sect started a quarrel.
It took half a day to come up with a result.
"Quiet! Listen to me!"
At this time, Mei Sanniang signaled everyone to stop talking and listen to her.
"I know that many people don't know how Master died. They just stayed and continued to be loyal to King Wei because of Master's last wish."
"But I know that Master was killed by the villain Wei Yong! And the King of Wei is fatuous, so he believed in Wei Yong, the villain, so that he could take advantage of it."
"At that time, Wei Yong even planned to let our entire Armored Sect be buried on the frontline battlefield together with Wei Wuzu. If his conspiracy had not been discovered, the consequences would have been disastrous."
Mei Sanniang's words shocked everyone.
Jianqing never mentioned these things to them.
They always thought that their master was assassinated by people from the Qin State.
I didn't expect there was such a hidden secret in it.
It seems that it was because of the ceremony or because King Wei wanted to stabilize their emotions and let them continue to serve King Wei that they did not tell the truth.
"I know it will be difficult to get everyone to agree to join the Qin Dynasty, but I think King Wei is not worthy of our allegiance! Last time it was Master, this time it is Senior Brother Dianqing, who will it be next time?"
"Senior sister, we understand what you mean, but what will happen to our families if we betray Wei? And if we are asked to raise weapons against our former comrades, we really can't do it!"
Although everyone had some opinions on King Wei because of Mei Sanniang's words.
But most of them did not fight for King Wei, but for their families.
If you betray Wei, the price will be very high.
"I know this, so I won't force it on everyone. If anyone wants to... join... the Qin Kingdom with me, they can come to me later."
"Tomorrow, I will take Senior Brother Dianqing to Su Qingyun and ask him to treat Senior Brother Dianqing. No matter what, I will give it a try!"
Mei Sanniang did not force everyone.
She planned to take the ceremony to negotiate terms with Su Qingyun tomorrow.
She couldn't meet Su Qingyun's previous conditions.
Now she can only hope that Su Qingyun will let go.
At this time, a soldier came to deliver an order, asking the responsible general to go to the Chinese army camp to discuss matters.
The group discussed for a while, and finally pushed a man forward.
When he arrived, he found that all the generals from various countries were here.
"Everyone is here, can we start?"
Yan Dan glanced at the people sent by the Wei State and didn't pay attention, but said to Xiang Yan.
"Well, let me introduce to you first. These two are Tian Meng and Tian Hu. They have led people to transport the sacred rice here."
"Has the sacred rice been shipped out?"
Li Mu asked immediately.
"That's right, they can be distributed to everyone to take back at any time."
Xiang Yan nodded.
Just yesterday, Tian Meng and Tian Hu arrived at the military camp and informed him of the matter.
The divine rice is in hand.
What they are discussing now is the distribution of divine rice and how to withdraw their troops.
"How do you plan to distribute the sacred rice seeds?"
Bai Yifei asked a question that everyone was concerned about.
"The sacred rice seeds we got this time totaled 10,000 hu of dendrobium. The five countries should share them equally. How about 2,000 hu of dendrobium each?"
It is very fair for Xiang Yan to do this.
But others don't think so.
They all feel that they have contributed more and deserve more seeds.
Xiang Yan saw what they were thinking.
"We have more important things to do now, which is how to safely withdraw our troops."
"The appearance of Su Qingyun shows that the wolves are not enough to pose a threat to Qin. It is impossible for us to retreat safely, so we must think of a foolproof strategy."
After hearing Xiang Yan's words, they finally nodded.
Just because you get the divine rice, it doesn't mean you can take it back.
If the Qin State's affairs cannot be resolved, whether they can go back or not is one thing.
"What do you think General Xiang Yan has to say?"
Bai Yifei chuckled and asked.
"Recently, Wang Jian has sent people to harass various departments of our army. Although he had the opportunity, he did not make a large-scale attack. This means that he does not want to fight with us. Then we can send envoys to Hangu Pass."
"As long as we explain our intention to negotiate with them, presumably in order to reduce casualties, they will agree. We will take this opportunity to distract them and prolong the negotiation. We will then quietly withdraw our troops in batches and bring Shendao back at the same time.
"
"When the time comes, regardless of whether the negotiations are successful or not, we will be able to withdraw our troops safely."
After everyone heard it, they thought it made sense.
"When will we go to negotiate?"
"The sooner the better, I suggest tomorrow!"
Soon they discussed who to send to negotiate, how to retreat, etc.
The Wei generals returned to their tents, where the armored men were waiting.
"What did you talk about?"
"Regarding the matter of the sacred rice seeds, they said that the sacred rice seeds have been shipped out, and the coalition forces will send people to Hangu Pass to negotiate with Qin tomorrow."
"What? Negotiate! Are the coalition forces crazy?"
Mei Sanniang did not expect that the coalition forces actually planned to negotiate with Qin.
"The negotiations are just an excuse to distract them so we can withdraw our troops."
"They are not that easy to fool! Besides, we can withdraw our troops, but how can we guarantee that the other party will not come knocking on our door? Can we still resist them now?"
Mei Sanniang said angrily.
Everyone also fell silent.
Obviously they also knew that the coalition's decision was actually very dangerous, and there would always be someone who would bear Qin's wrath.
And at the beginning, they didn't know what the purpose of attacking Qin was.
How many brothers' lives did it cost to storm Hangu Pass?
In the end they are just bait.
At this time, many people are also thinking, is it really worth continuing to work for King Wei?
Can they enjoy the divine rice seeds that yield thousands of pounds per mu?
In addition, Mei Sanniang told them the truth about their master's death.
"Senior Sister, please take Senior Brother Dianqing and leave! After the war, we may be able to invite experts to help our Senior Brother. It is not safe to stay in the military camp!"
Although they were still hesitating whether to betray King Wei, they all really thought about the celebration.
After Master died, only Dianqing was still there to protect them.
"What about you?"
"Maybe we can really negotiate with the Qin army tomorrow, and we can go back safely!"
Mei Sanniang clenched her fists tightly, feeling a little suffocated.
At night, a convoy quietly left the Wei military camp.
It was Mei Sanniang, Dianqing, and several armored disciples who decided to follow them.
"Senior sister, this direction seems to be heading to Hangu Pass, right?"
"That's right! We still have a bargaining chip now that we can try!"
In the early morning, the convoy arrived at Hangu Pass and was discovered and detained by the Hangu Pass defenders.
"I am Mei Sanniang, and I want to meet your national master, Su Qingyun!"
After Mei Sanniang shouted this, a soldier immediately reported the matter.
Su Qingyun, who was practicing in his room, was finally approached by Wang Jian.
"Mei Sanniang is back and has brought a celebration."
“Go check it out!”
At this time, Mei Sanniang and others had their weapons removed and were guarding the ceremony.
Meng Wu, Meng Tian, Wang Ben and others were all here watching them.
Su Qingyun raised his eyebrows when he saw these people.
"what do you mean?"
"I cannot agree to your previous conditions."
Mei Sanniang shook her head first.
"Then if you bring the ceremony here, you won't be afraid of him dying here!"
Su Qingyun squinted his eyes and his tone was a little cold.
Is she entertaining him?
Why were there so many people making trouble with her in the middle of the night?
"I can't convince all the people from the Armored Sect to leave Wei and join Qin. Some of them have family members in Wei, so I want to use other conditions in exchange."
Mei Sanniang knew Su Qingyun would have such an expression and said immediately.
"Other conditions?"
"Yes, the coalition forces have obtained some magic rice. They are planning to send people to Hangu Pass tomorrow to negotiate with you. In fact, they are trying to distract you and then withdraw their troops."
Mei Sanniang betrayed the Five Nations Allied Forces without hesitation.
Anyway, she's not from the coalition.
Upon hearing the news, all the generals of Qin were furious.
"Damn it! They are really after Shendao!"
"Coveting my Great Qin's national treasure is a crime worthy of death! Negotiate? Don't even think about it!"
Seeing the excited expressions of these people, Mei Sanniang knew that her news should be very important, and she made the right bet.
"This news should be enough! Please take action to save my senior brother!"
Su Qingyun was amused by Mei Sanniang's blind confidence. This news actually did not have a great effect on them. Knowing it late would not affect the overall situation at all. After all, the other party's purpose had been figured out by Su Qingyun and others.
However, seeing that Mei Sanniang was so courageous and directly exposed the coalition's plan, he still agreed to rescue the ceremony.
"I can save him, but then you have to do things for me, and so do they! At the same time, you have to hand over the training methods of Armored Door."
Su Qingyun pointed at the people behind Mei Sanniang.
"Can!"
Mei Sanniang looked at her junior fellow apprentices behind her, made eye contact with them, and then agreed.
Su Qingyun casually took out a bottle of elixir.
"This is the soul-preserving pill. It can preserve the last consciousness of the ceremony. I don't have time now. I will not save him until after the war and verify your intelligence."
"no problem!"
Mei Sanniang nervously took the elixir and fed it to Jianqing.
"Well, if you can, please be merciful to the soldiers of Wei. If you can capture them, please don't hurt their lives."
Mei Sanniang made a small request at this time.
"We make our own decision!"
Su Qingyun did not promise her directly. Things on the battlefield were changing rapidly, so how could he make a promise at will?
Afterwards, Wang Jian had people prepare a place for them to live and sent people to watch over them.
"National Division, now we can completely attack them with a large army. They are only thinking about negotiations and withdrawal, and they will definitely not be able to react! There are cavalry watching them, so we are not afraid that they can run away!"
"General Wang Jian, feel free to do it. Their vain negotiation is just a whim!"
Su Qingyun nodded. Wang Jian was experienced in mobilizing troops and generals. He would definitely be able to make the most of this news and give the coalition forces a "surprise".
After being disturbed by Mei Sanniang, he decided to continue practicing.
So he went to call Concubine Yan and others and explained what would happen tomorrow.
"Execute the beheading plan against the opponent's generals, but first pay attention to your own safety!"
Su Qingyun said to everyone.
"Don't worry! We will definitely be cautious and cautious!"
Concubine Yan and others nodded.
They knew that this battle was not going to end with just one killing spree. They really planned to fight the coalition forces decisively.
So if there is no chance, they will not take action by force.
"Xuanjian, you should still find a way to find the whereabouts of the sacred rice. Since the sacred rice has been transported out, they must have been sent to the military camp. You take advantage of the chaos and lead people to target their logistics and grain and burn them!"
"I see!"
Xuan Jian came with Mo Yu a few days ago and reported to Su Qingyun about the divine rice.
He was already a little unhappy about this.
Now the task Su Qingyun gave him was in line with his wishes.
The next day, the coalition forces sent an envoy with a group of troops to Hangu Pass to send a signal to Qin for peace talks.
The leader is Yan Yi, the general of Yan State. As the general of Yan State, he has sufficient weight.
However, Yan Yi himself was reluctant and only agreed to the matter after Yan Dan repeatedly persuaded him.
He is loyal to Lord Yan Chun. If it were not for King Yan's order, he would not listen to Yan Dan.
In this attack on Qin, I don’t know what Yan Dan said to King Yan, but he actually made him the main general.
Along the way, he didn't see any Qin troops.
But Yan Yi didn't feel anything was wrong.
On the contrary, I was very happy.
It was very safe along the way, of course he was happy
If he met the Qin army and shot him without explanation, wouldn't he die unjustly?
When they arrived at Hangu Pass, Yan Yi and others were targeted by the defenders of Hangu Pass.
"Wang Jian! I am Yan Yi, the general of the Yan State, and I am here to negotiate with you on behalf of the coalition forces! We have been in confrontation for many days, and neither of us has benefited. How about sitting down for peace talks?"
Wang Jian listened to the shouts from the city with great disdain.
At this time, he is still thinking about peace talks!
"Peace talks? This general is only responsible for defeating you. I have never received an order to negotiate with you!"
Wang Jian didn't say much. Following his order, someone immediately targeted the group of people below.
Chapter completed!
