Su Chen and Li Chengqian had already told the Dashi nobles about the withdrawal conditions of the Tang Dynasty.
Osman and Muwesa knew it.
Before Muvisa came to see Su Chen, he had a careful discussion with Osman and was mentally prepared.
But when Su Chen told him that some specific matters could not be discussed in detail until Li Chengqian sent someone to the camp, Mu Weiye couldn't help but get angry!
He had just come back from Basra. Since there were some things that Li Chengqian needed to decide, why didn't he say it when he was in Basra?
I ran back after all the hard work and said that I needed to wait for someone from Basra.
Isn't this just kidding yourself?
In fact, Su Chen really didn't mean this. Who knew that Li Chengqian hated Osman so much that he directly drove Mu Weiye back.
Mu Weiye was angry, but he still had to confirm some other terms with Su Chen first.
Regarding Su Chen's request for Osman to submit credentials to the Tang Dynasty to plead guilty, Mu Weiye gritted his teeth and said nothing.
When it came to Mutharif, Muweiya pleaded: "Commander, Mutharif is old and seriously ill. Can Marshal..."
"cannot!"
Su Chen directly interrupted Muwesa: "He asked people to create a locust plague in our Tang Dynasty, causing our Tang Dynasty to starve to death thousands of miles away, and millions of people in the Tang Dynasty to be displaced!"
"To tell you the truth, before I led my army here, I was the governor of the three states that were hardest hit. I can still vividly remember the tragedy of the people affected by the disaster. Do you think I will spare him?"
Muwesa sighed and said nothing.
Su Chenxin said: I must meet that talkative Mutarif. This guy is so strange. As a big cannibal, he knows too much about the Tang Dynasty.
Su Chen then made some requests to Muwisa. When it came to the artillery designed and manufactured by the Big Eater himself, Su Chen said that he wanted to meet the genius who designed the artillery.
Regarding Su Chen's request, Mu Weiye's face changed slightly, and he said that he did not know about it and needed to go back and ask Osman.
Su Chen frowned, feeling that Mu Weiye was lying to him.
As a close confidant of Osman and one of the leaders of the Dashi army, he actually claimed that he was not familiar with artillery. This excuse was too low-level!
But Su Chen didn't say anything, he just asked Muvisa to bring the person who designed the artillery next time so that he could see it.
Finally, Muwesa asked Su Chen: "Commander, when will officials from your country arrive here in Basra?"
Su Chen smiled: "I don't know if this Commander-in-Chief has any specific instructions in the letter from the Crown Prince."
"how?
Your Ottoman Majesty can’t wait any longer?”
Muwesa said helplessly: "I'm just asking casually."
"But our two sides have been facing each other across the river here for quite some time. Now that peace talks have begun, how about we each start slowly withdrawing our troops?"
Su Chen glared at Muvisa: "If His Majesty Osman can't wait any longer, he can lead his army back to Ctesiphon first. I will be waiting here to sign the final armistice contract with your envoy!"
Su Chenxin said: Do you think I am a fool?
It took a lot of effort to get here, but you just want me to withdraw my troops with empty words?
If Osman suddenly repented, wouldn't my hard work for several months have been in vain?
Besides, once I withdraw my troops here, Osman can free up his hands and feet to take care of the others, right?
With the current situation of food, Osman should be as anxious as an ant on a hot pot!
Su Chen guessed right, Osman was indeed very anxious:
The battle between him and Su Chen was closely watched by all forces. Now everyone knows that they should withdraw their troops soon.
So others are taking advantage of Su Chen's last chance to drag Osman away for the time being, and are frantically attacking Dashi!
Heraclius, who has been paddling for half a year, is currently commanding the Byzantine army, braving cannibalistic artillery fire and attacking Damascus day and night;
Yisiqi, who had just suffered a defeat, regrouped and attacked Ctesiphon with the Khazars.
Khosrow, the leader of the Persian rebels, has stopped moving northward and is frantically expanding his territory. Basically, everything east of the Karon River belongs to Khosrow.
What worries Osman the most is the big-eating nobles, who have been trying to overthrow Osman's throne and make Zubair the king!
In the past, although these nobles were large in number, they were weak in strength. Osman was not afraid of them.
But recently Osman discovered that these nobles had attracted his general Talha, which made Osman anxious.
This Teleha was one of the two generals fighting against Byzantium on the Western Front, and he controlled half of the elites on the Western Front!
Therefore, Osman's current situation is very critical, and he urgently needs to lead his troops back to quell the unrest on all sides.
But Osman was dragged by Su Chen to the river again, unable to move.
Once Osman leaves with his army, who knows whether Su Chen will suddenly cross the river to Ctesiphon.
Su Chen didn't care about Osman's anxiety, and was leisurely waiting for the officials from Honglu Temple to come to the camp by the river.
As a result, after waiting for four or five days, no one was seen.
Su Chen was wondering. Normally, Li Chengqian would send someone to receive his letter, and they should have arrived by now.
After waiting patiently for two days, Su Chen did not wait for the officials from Honglu Temple, but instead waited for Li Chengqian!
"Your Highness, why are you here in person?"
Su Chen was very surprised about Li Chengqian's arrival.
The last time Li Chengqian wrote a letter, he told Su Chen that he was not planning to go north.
Just let Su Chen negotiate the terms with Osman and then take the documents back to Basra for him to sign.
Li Chengqian was going to punish those big food aristocrats in Basra.
"Haha! I kept the teacher waiting for a long time!"
"But to sign a contract with Osman, I think it's better to come in person,"
"And when students come this time, they still have important things to discuss with the teacher!"
Su Chen wondered if Li Chengqian had anything important to discuss with him now.
The war is basically over. As long as the contract with Osman is signed, everyone can happily sail home!
Is there anything else that Li Chengqian should make a trip to discuss with him at this time?
"Teacher, I would like to ask you to cancel the order to bomb the coastal cities of Dashi."
When Su Chen heard what Li Chengqian said, he couldn't help but frown: "Your Highness, you were also involved when this plan was formulated."
"The purpose of our doing this is to destroy Dashi's shipyard..."
Li Chengqian nodded: "Teacher, students know."
"Our ultimate goal in doing this is to control the Maritime Silk Road!"
Su Chen smiled: "Your Highness, since you understand, why do you still stop it?"
"The current ships of the Great Eaters are still relatively crude, but I guess they have already acquired our shipbuilding technology."
"After all, the remnants of the domestic elites were able to imitate our eight-thousand-stone ship two years ago. These technologies and the remnants of the elites will definitely spread to the outside world."
