Wangyue Dagong shouted: "Master Jin, if you agree to such a thing privately, the king will definitely not allow it!"
"Lord Mochizuki...it seems you really don't understand the critical nature of the situation."
Why did the King of Goguryeo suddenly send Jin Fei to negotiate peace? It was because of changes in the border territory of Goguryeo!
Just ten days ago, the soldiers stationed on the border of the Tang Dynasty suddenly attacked, marched to the city, and used a terrifying weapon to bombard the city of Goguryeo.
Those weapons were made of black metal, were huge in size, and emitted black mist. Along with the sound of their openings, a large hole was blown out of the city wall. The power was astonishing and shocking.
Nearly ten cities along the Goguryeo border were all broken, and the stationed Goguryeo generals surrendered without even resisting.
Jin Fei looked frightened when he talked about it now. He didn't know what kind of weapons the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty used, but the weapons were so powerful that if things continued like this, the entire country of Goguryeo would be destroyed.
It is precisely based on this that the King of Goguryeo weighed in and quickly sent Jin Fei to negotiate peace. No matter what conditions the other party offered, he had to agree, as long as the foundation of Goguryeo could be preserved!
After all, it is better to become a vassal state than to subjugate the country. At least you can survive as a vassal state.
Wangyue Dagong fell to the ground like a maggot. After hearing what Jin Fei said, he was furious.
How stupid! How stupid!
Wangyue Dagong naturally knew about the "powerful weapons" used by the Tang Dynasty, which were called "cannons" by the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty.
This thing is so powerful and lethal that the current Goguryeo Kingdom really cannot resist it. However, the number of "cannons" owned by the Tang Dynasty is very rare, and the "shells" used by the cannons are difficult to make. Even if the Tang Dynasty wanted to rely on "cannons"
Even with the power of "cannons", Goguryeo could not be attacked.
"Master Jin, you have been fooled! This is a bluff!"
When Mochizuki Dagong spoke, he glared at Muchuan fiercely. He knew that Muchuan must have used a conspiracy to induce Goguryeo to surrender.
However, this strategy will not work, and the reason is simple. Muchuan had used the "big robe" when he led the army to attack Goguryeo a few months ago. This weapon was so powerful that it made people panic, and naturally it made Mochizuki Dagong pay attention.
Very good.
For this reason, Mochizuki Dagong specially sent scouts to investigate, and it took a lot of money to figure out the number of cannons.
But Jin Fei didn't believe what Wang Yue Dagong said. Datang didn't have enough "cannons". This was impossible!
"Lord Wangyue, according to the news from the front line, the Tang army has at least fifty cannons, which is enough to destroy the Goguryeo kingdom!"
"Fifty?
This is impossible!"
Mochizuki Dagong said with a firm voice. Although he didn't know how to make the cannon, according to the scouts, it was complicated to make and was transported long distances from Chang'an City.
Not to mention whether the Tang Dynasty had the power to produce so many cannons. Even if it could be produced, it would not be so easy to transport such bulky weapons to the northeastern border! And even if it was transported, it would definitely be very powerful.
People noticed, how could the Goguryeo country not receive the news?
For this reason, Wangyue Dagong is certain that there must be something wrong with these fifty robes!
"Master Jin, if you think about it carefully, if the Tang Dynasty really has the power to destroy us, why does it want to negotiate with us?
Those with great strength will not pity the weak!"
Jin Fei has a cowardly and indecisive character. Now after listening to what Wang Yue Dagong said, he feels that what he said makes sense. Is this really a trick of the Tang Dynasty?
While Jin Fei was thinking about it, Muchuan deliberately made an impatient expression: "What's wrong, can we still talk about peace?
If we don’t want to talk about it, then that’s it, just keep fighting.”
"Wait a minute! Lord Muchuan... let us discuss this matter in the long term."
"Long term plan?
Do you think this peace negotiation can be decided by your defeated country?
It’s up to me!”
Muchuan stood up abruptly, flicked the black cloud sleeves, and said in a cold voice, "Now your country of Goguryeo has only two choices, either accept the conditions and choose peace, or accept the destruction of the country!"
"This, this..." Jin Fei panicked, because he couldn't tell whether the news about the fifty cannons was true or false.
But at this time, Huaihua General Lin Qihe, who was standing aside, spoke: "Sir, why are we in such trouble?
Dozens of large robes are aiming at the Goguryeo Kingdom and directly capture its territory! All the remaining Goguryeo people can be taken as prisoners!"
Muchuan shook his head slightly and showed pity: "This is absolutely impossible. Your Majesty is kind and has the world in mind. The people living in Goguryeo are also ordinary people. You must not hurt them."
Little did he know that the conversation between Muchuan and Lin Qihe was like a heavy hammer hitting Jin Fei's heart. Yes, how could fifty cannons be fake!
According to the news from the frontline sergeants, many people in Goguryeo saw the Tang Dynasty offering fifty "powerful weapons". It's impossible for hundreds of people to see it wrong, right?
As for the information Mochizuki Dagong said, it is probably not false, but there may be a time difference! That is to say, the Tang Dynasty did not have so many weapons when Mochizuki Dagong inquired about the information, but after January, the cannon weapons were transported from Chang'an City to the border
bingo!
If a fight breaks out, Goguryeo will definitely be destroyed!
Jin Fei has the emperor's mandate. If the failure of the peace negotiation leads to the destruction of Goguryeo, then he will truly become a sinner through the ages.
Therefore, even if Wangyue Dagong tried to dissuade him, Jin Fei agreed to negotiate peace.
"As the ambassador of Goguryeo, I am willing to accept the invitation and surrender!"
"good!"
Muchuan laughed heartily and ordered people to prepare pens, inks, paper and inkstones. Then he and Jin Fei began to sign the peace documents on the round table in the center and put their seals on them to confirm the peace between the two countries.
As time goes by, the moon and stars are dimming, and the outer walls of the palace in Chang'an City reflect a different kind of golden light, which is exceptionally transparent and beautiful.
After the peace negotiation was over, many of the peace negotiation ministers of the Tang Dynasty were summoned by the emperor to the imperial study.
Emperor Li Shimin was sitting on the dragon throne, wearing a golden robe and a majestic face. He looked very happy after hearing Wei Zheng's report on the peace talks.
"The peace negotiation was actually successful. I really didn't expect it..." As he spoke, Li Shimin turned his eyes to Muchuan and said in a majestic voice, "Minister of the Ministry of Finance."
"I'm here."
"You have made the greatest contribution to this negotiation and won the award! Can you think of any reward?"
award?
Although Muchuan already holds a high position as the Minister of Household Affairs and has enough money, human nature is greedy, and Muchuan is no exception. If he really wants a reward, he will naturally have to continue to be promoted to a higher position.
