————The following text————
After the first peace negotiation that day, Yan Yu stayed in Handan, while Shen Fei, after asking Zhao Hongrun for instructions, rushed back to Wu'an with two guards and conveyed the request made by Zhao Hongrun at today's peace meeting to Lihou Hanwu.
Probably around Xu Shi, Shen Fei returned to Wu'an in a hurry. After paying a visit to Lihou Hanwu, he told the latter everything about today's meeting, which made Lihou Hanwu frown deeply.
As Zhao Hongrun guessed, Lihou Hanwu instructed Yan Yu and Shen Fei to cede "Zhongyang", "Pingzhou", "Lishi", "Lin" and "Gaolang" to Wei as compensation for the defeat. The fundamental purpose was to pass the threat of the Hu people onto the Wei State.
As the saying goes, the lesser of two powers harm each other. Although the cession of five cities certainly made Lihou Hanwu feel sad, if part of the "Hu disaster" can be transferred to Wei, this would not be a bad thing in Lihou Hanwu's view. Good thing.
You must know that among those five cities, "Lin County" is located near the Xihe River and has always been the county most severely affected by "Hu disasters". Therefore, nine out of ten people in the county have fled to "Lishi City". As a result, "Lin County" except for hundreds of Korean soldiers stationed there, has almost no residents, maybe not even 100 households.
Therefore, Han Wu, the Marquis of this county, did not feel any distress at all.
Let's talk about "Zhongyang" and "Pingzhou". These two counties are sandwiched between the Hu people and the Wei people. Although the Wei people in Hedong County have not invaded in recent years, they cannot withstand the threat posed by the Hu disasters. Because of this The reason is that the Han royal family has never had the intention to develop these two cities. They only used these two cities to suppress Wei's "Beiqu City". Even if it is ceded to Wei today, the impact will not be very great.
In this way, only the two cities of "Lishi" and "Gaolang" are left.
Needless to say, Gaolang is a typical military town county. It can be regarded as a companion city to Lishi City, serving as a garrison and protection for the latter.
Therefore, after the five cities of "Zhongyang", "Pingzhou", "Lishi", "Lin", and "Gaolang", only Lihou Han Wu felt sad about the cession of "Lishi". After all, Lishi City was being housed in After the residents of the surrounding counties, there are more than a thousand households in the county, making it one of the few large cities in the Xihe area.
But compared with the benefits brought by "passing the Hu disaster to Wei", Lihou Hanwu believed that this loss was nothing at all.
It has to be said that although Lihou Hanwu was extremely hesitant in dealing with his younger brother Han Wangran, he was nevertheless a far-sighted and powerful minister. This may be because of the careful cultivation of Hanwangqi, which made Lihou Hanwu in In terms of the overall situation, he is not inferior to veterans like Kang Gong and Han Hu.
It is precisely for this reason that his decision to cede the five cities to Wei this time, even Kang Gong and Han Hu, who had no dealings with him, had to admit that it was a clever move.
Unexpectedly, Wei Gongzi Run saw through the trap set by Lihou Han Wu at a glance, rebelled against him, and actually demanded "Hexi".
"Wei Gongzi Run...asks for Hexi?" Han Wu, the Marquis of Li, frowned and asked Shen Fei.
"Yes." Shen Fei lowered his head and said with a wry smile: "Wei Gongzi Runyan said, 'Since the two countries have shaken hands and made peace, how can we invade your country's territory? Isn't this contrary to the peace talks? ""
"..." Lihou Han Wu was speechless.
At this time, Kang Gong Han Hu also received a letter from his nephew Han Yang, the Marquis of Dangyin, sent to the former, and fell into deep thought.
That night, Li Hou Han Wu and Kang Gong Han Hu met secretly and discussed it. They believed that Yan Yu, the two scholar-bureaucrats who judged Fei, could not suppress the Wei Gongzi Run before the Ming Dynasty, and even their lobbying skills were not as good as those of Yan Yu. Han Chao and Zhao Zhuo.
Therefore, Li Hou Han Wu and Kang Gong Han Hu decided to go to Handan in person to meet Wei Gongzi Run. After all, Wei Gongzi Run's request had a great impact on South Korea.
The next day, when Zhao Hongrun entertained Han Wangran at a banquet, he learned that Li Hou Han Wu and Kang Gong Han Hu were coming hand in hand.
However, neither Zhao Hongrun nor Han Wangran were surprised by this. After all, the two scholar-bureaucrats Yan Yu and Shen Fei were obviously just mouthpieces. The only ones who could really make the final decision on this matter were Li Hou Han Wu and Kang Gong Han Hu. After all, they were both three The powerful minister Zhuang Gong and Han Geng were not as powerful as the first two.
At that time, Zhao Hongrun laughed and accepted the request from Lihou Hanwu and Kanggong Han Hu: they hoped to meet outside the city of Handan.
Therefore, Zhao Hongrun chose the meeting place on the bank of a river about three miles outside the high wall, and proposed that for the safety of both parties, only no more than twenty guards were allowed.
In this regard, Li Hou Han Wu and Kang Gong Han Hu readily accepted it.
On the sixth day of August, Zhao Hongrun and General Shaohu, together with the Zongwei, Han Wangran, Dangyinhou Hanyang, and Han Envoy Yan Yu, set up tents at the agreed place early and waited for the arrival of Lihou Hanwu and Kanggong Han Hu. .
While waiting for the arrival of Li Hou Han Wu and Kang Gong Han Hu, Han Wangran's heart was pounding.
At this moment, a very tempting thought suddenly appeared in his heart: The Wei army was only three miles away from the high wall. If Wei Gongzi Run ordered the capture of Lihou Han Wu and Kang Gong Han Hu, wouldn't he be able to regain the kingship immediately?
Because of this, he looked at Zhao Hongrun with burning eyes uncontrollably.
But after taking a few deep breaths, Han Wangran gave up the idea.
There are three reasons.
First, Han Wangran knew in his heart that although Lihou Han Wu and Kang Gong Han Hu were both generals, in fact they were extremely cautious people. They would definitely be on guard when meeting Wei Gongzi Run this time.
Secondly, even if Lihou Hanwu and Kanggong Hanhu were captured here, he would not be able to truly take charge of Korea. Instead, he would be stigmatized as having "liaisons with outsiders to frame important ministers of the country".
Thirdly, is Wei Gongzi Run willing to bear the stigma of "treachery" for him? After all, this time Li Hou Han Wu and Kang Gong came, Wei Gongzi Run admitted it. If he set an ambush to capture the two of them, wouldn't it be wrong? His reputation was ruined.
Thinking of this, the heat in Han Wangran's eyes gradually faded away.
However, his demeanor fell in Zhao Hongrun's eyes.
In fact, Zhao Hongrun also thought about this: whether it would be possible to take this opportunity to capture Li Hou Han Wu and Kang Gong Han Hu, and support Han Wangran to regain the kingship.
But thinking about it carefully, he felt that this matter would do him more harm than good.
Not to mention that he had to bear the stigma of "treachery" for this, and furthermore, he did not think that helping Han Wangran regain the royal power so quickly was a good thing for Wei.
The reason is simple, because Wei State is not yet ready to intervene in South Korea's internal affairs.
But having said that, Zhao Hongrun was still a little surprised that Han Wangran corrected his attitude so quickly.
I don't know how much time passed, but Zongwei Lu Mu raised the tent and walked in. He cupped his fists and said to Zhao Hongrun, "Sir, Marquis Li and Duke Kang of South Korea have arrived."
Seeing this, Zhao Hongrun and Han Wangran stood up and went out of the tent to greet them.
As Han Wangran guessed, Li Hou Han Wu and Kang Gong Han Hu were very cautious about this peace negotiation and actually brought about two to three thousand infantry.
However, the two to three thousand Korean infantrymen were placed about two or three miles away from the conference tent. Only more than 300 soldiers followed Lihou Hanwu and Kanggong Hanhu to the conference tent.
Under the introduction of Dangyin Hou Han Yang, Zhao Hongrun finally saw the true faces of the two powerful Korean officials in Lushan, Li Hou Han Wu and Kang Gong Han Hu.
After some pleasantries, Zhao Hongrun said with a smile: "How about you and I retire the soldiers and go into the tent to talk in detail?"
Li Hou Han Wu and Kang Gong Han Hu nodded in praise.
As a result, the more than 300 guards who followed Han Wu, Duke of Li, and Kang Gong, Han Hu, slowly retreated to the position of about two to three thousand Korean infantry; and the 500 merchant navy and Wei soldiers who were originally guarding around the tent also At the same time, retreat toward the high wall.
At this time, there were only ten guards from the Korean side and the Wei side staying outside the meeting tent. They saw these soldiers staring at each other with wide eyes, and their right hands did not dare to leave the scabbard. It was not so much that they were at war with each other, but rather that they were at war with each other. I was very nervous, afraid that the other party would suddenly attack me.
Compared with the tense atmosphere outside the tent, the atmosphere inside the tent was much more harmonious.
For example, after meeting Zhao Hongrun, Li Hou Han Wu asked Han Wangran in a low voice whether he had suffered in the past few days.
Even Zhao Hongrun, an outsider, could see that Li Hou Han Wu had a very conflicted attitude towards Han Wangran. He wanted Han Wangran to die but did not want Han Wangran to die.
In contrast, Kang Gong and Han Hu's attitude was much more straightforward. When he found out that the Wei people actually treated Han Wangran as a guest, a trace of pity flashed in his eyes, as if he was thinking that Han Wangran had not died in the Wei Dynasty. Feeling sorry for the hand.
While the brothers Lihou Hanwu and Han Wangran were whispering about their brotherly feelings, Zhao Hongrun secretly looked at the people dressed as generals who followed Lihou Hanwu and Kang Gong Han Hu.
According to the introduction of Han Yang, the Marquis of Dangyin, Zhao Hongrun knew that those generals were extraordinary. They were actually "Li Mu, the guardian of Yanmen", "Ma She, the guardian of Shanggu", and "Lian Pi, the guardian of Taiyuan" among the "Top Ten Heroes of Beiyuan". .
Among them, Taiyuan Shou Lian Pi was recognized by Zhao Hongrun even without introduction. After all, Lian Pi had personally gone into battle in the previous confrontation, and with his terrifying force, he had caused huge casualties to the Wei army.
It is precisely because of this that the arrival of Taiyuan Shou Lian Pi made Wei Jiao, Lu Mu and other clan guards sit on pins and needles, staring at Lian Pi.
It's a pity that Lian Pi didn't seem to take Wei Jiao and others seriously. After sitting down, before Zhao Hongrun, Lihou Hanwu, Kang Gong, Han Hu and others could speak, he patted the table and shouted: "Where's the wine? …How can a discussion be conducted without wine?”
Seeing this man being so arrogant, Wei Jiao, Lu Mu and other clan guards were secretly angry.
But at this moment, General Shao Hu said with a smile: "What General Lian Pi said is absolutely true. How can we discuss matters without wine? Come on, serve the wine."
After hearing this, the Wei soldiers serving in the tent served the drinks that had been prepared.
At this moment, Lian Piu noticed that the Wei general opposite him was actually Shao Hu, who had fought against him a few days ago.
What made Lian Pi feel a little awkward was that maybe it was because he had clarified his relationship with Shao Hu a few days ago, and Shao Hu respected him so much that Lian Pi couldn't get angry.
Yes, this time Li Hou Han Wu and Kang Gong Han Hu brought Lian Pi, a general who even gave them a headache, in order to wait for an opportunity to give the Wei people a disgrace. However, they did not expect that Shao Hu tried his best to protect Lian Pi, so that Lian Pi There is no chance of an attack at all.
