Chapter 169 The Double Reed of Two Foxes

When talking about this letter, Yang Ye was very excited. He told Ye Hua that whenever the battle reached the most difficult time, he would tell his soldiers that the letter from the champion Hou was there, and the trick to save everyone was there.

Champion Hou said that it will take the most critical moment to read the contents of the letter.

His Majesty's army didn't know when it would be back, and he rashly used his life-saving trick. What should he do in the future?

Can you still hold on? If you really can't hold on, then open the secret letter... The soldiers were thinking, since it was a life-saving trick, of course they had to use it at the last moment.

Anyway, you can still persist, so why waste it?

As for whether the trick works or not, everyone has never doubted it.

After all, too many of Yang Ye's subordinates came from Linzhou. They have regarded the champion Hou as a figure like Jiang Ziya and Zhuge Liang. They have a clever idea and can do anything.

The method left by the Marquis will definitely work!

One day, one day, they lasted for 5 days!

Blood stained the city red, and the bodies were piled up in the trenches. The three thousand soldiers were mostly damaged. Yang Ye was seriously injured. When he was really at the end of his life, Yang Ye grinned bitterly. He trembledly, grabbed the secret letter and wanted to tear it apart in front of everyone... But at this moment, the Southern Tang soldiers retreated, the Great Zhou troops returned to the rescue, Chuzhou turned danger into safety, and everyone survived.

Yang Ye fainted. The doctor treated him with his injuries, but found that his hands were tightly clenched and could not be broken anyway.

Now the letter has finally returned to Ye Hua's hands.

Ye Hua looked carefully, then suddenly whispered: "Brother Yang, have you seen it secretly?"

Yang Ye took a breath, and the flesh on his face twitched twice, which was very unnatural. He was silent for a while before he said blankly: "Marty, the last general has indeed seen it... With the Martyr's talent, can't he think of the wonderful way to resurrect the dead?"

Ye Hua nodded, "Manpower is limited, but man can conquer nature! Ye Hua has no magic tricks and cannot create miracles, but... Brother Yang, you did it, you and the three thousand soldiers did it!"

Yang Ye was very moved. Indeed, they did it. Faced with a strong soldier that was ten times more than him, they fought to the death, and would rather die in blood than retreat. They suffered heavy casualties and were almost wiped out!

But in the end they won. There are no gods in the world, but as long as everyone put their hearts together and tied them together, they can do things that even gods cannot do!

But the price paid was too high... Yang Ye was lonely.

"I, I want to fight back to Linzhou and return to my hometown. I'm afraid not many of the tribesmen who follow me will see them. They will die of battle, will die of illness, will be injured, and will be disabled..." Yang Ye's throat seemed to be blocked, and he couldn't continue.

Silence, terrible silence.

Tears shed in the corner of Yang Ye's eyes, "I, I want to kill back, no matter how many people die, it's worth it!" He raised his head and looked at Ye Hua, a little like a student looking at the teacher, eager to get an answer.

"Marty, right?"

Ye Hua was also very uncomfortable, he paused, "Brother Yang, I don't know how to die worthwhile. I can only say that if I had made a choice, I would rather use tens of millions of lives to restore Yan Yun. Even if the corpse accumulates like mountains and blood flows into a river, I will do whatever I want! Because of the loss of Yan Yun's protection, the barbarian cavalry may trample on the Central Plains at any time. At that time, not only tens of millions of people died, perhaps more than tens of millions!"

"Historists of all generations have criticized Emperor Wu of Han for his military and military power. However, they did not know that without the decisive counterattack of Emperor Wu, the continuous war for decades, and the sacrifice of millions of people, the Chinese Taoist tradition might have long been lost! Those people benefited from Emperor Wu's talent and strategy, but instead scolded Emperor Wu, picked up a bowl of meat and put down their chopsticks to curse her. They were a group of pitiful parasites!"

In order to achieve great goals, sacrifice is always inevitable. The greater the goal, the more sacrifices it will be... Just like a blast furnace for smelting iron, if you want to produce more good iron, you have to invest more raw materials and spend more effort. This is a law that cannot be changed... Yang Ye tried hard to understand, but he did not have a heart of iron after all.

Not only him, but even Ye Hua didn't, so he focused all his attention on being a good champion. His tender shoulders could not bear more responsibilities.

After coming out of Yang Ye's ward, Ye Hua burned the secret letter. Except for him and Yang Ye, no one knew what was really written on it... The jokes about champion Hou Suanwu's plan are still circulating in the army, and there is even a trend of becoming more and more magical.

There is no longer the word "sham" in Ye Hua's dictionary.

As long as he works hard to play his role well, for example, now, Xu Xuan comes to the peace talks, and after Guo Wei and Wei Renpu discuss, he handed over the glorious task to Ye Hua.

"That Xu Xuan is eloquent, but I am not capable of resisting it, so I asked the champion Hou to take the opportunity. I wish the champion Hou in advance, and the horse will be successful!"

Ye Hua despised Wei Renpu very much.

What can you say about old guy? Nan Tang has become a defeated general. No matter how powerful Xu Xuan is, he is just a stubborn duck. What else can he do?

I just don't want to do dirty work!

If you don’t want to, I will force you to do it!

Ye Hua went to Xu Xuan without saying a word.

Lao Xu was left for a long time, and finally someone came. Even if the unreasonable Ye Hua came, he was ecstatic and danced.

"I have seen the champion Hou!"

Ye Hua ignored him, went around him, found a seat, and sat down.

Xu Xuan was a little embarrassed and laughed twice.

"Since I saw the Marquis' alcohol last time, I have learned to drink more. This time, I sacrificed my life to accompany the gentleman. As much as the Marquis drinks, I will drink as much as I want! Never frown!"

Want to drink?

Still sacrifice your life to accompany a gentleman?

Sorry, no interest!

Ye Hua crossed his legs and smiled: "I heard that Xu Xueshi was a man who was aware of his knowledge and never remembered it. Is he the number one talented man in Jiangnan?"

Xu Xuan smiled humbly, "The Marquis is too famous, and the Jiangnan people are outstanding and powerful. There are indeed many talented men, and I am not a big deal!"

Bang!

Ye Hua slapped the table suddenly and was furious! The speed of turning against each other was faster than turning on the book, and the face-changing drama was perfectly staged.

"You are nothing, and you sent you here? Does Li Jing look down on Da Zhou?"

Faced with such unreasonable questions, Xu Xuan was stunned. I was just being modest and earning some face for the country. Will you not understand?

You are deliberately looking for awkwardness!

Ye Hua sneered in his heart, yes, he just wanted to find awkwardness!

"Sir Xu, I mentioned six items last time. You should still remember that if you want to have a peace talk, just talk about those six items, and no less than one!" Ye Hua said that, and shook his sleeves, turned around and left, without giving Xu Xuan any room to bargain.

Xu Xuan was stunned. He finally hoped for a mountain king. What should I do?

Ye Hua's six are too arrogant and unreasonable, and Xu Xuan still remembers them clearly.

The first one is to go to the imperial title and submit to the Great Zhou. This alone made the Southern Tang unacceptable. They established their country earlier than the Great Zhou, and they continued to regard themselves as the orthodox Tang Dynasty. How could they go to the imperial title and submit to the Supreme Court?

No, absolutely not!

As for the second article, it is to cede the land in Jiangbei, which is even worse. Who doesn’t want the country to grow stronger and stronger? How can you give up the land?

What else is there to pay compensation? Send an imperial envoy, cut off troops, and even let the sixth prince act as a actor!

Too much bullying!

No one can be agreed!

But what can I do if I don’t agree?

Keep fighting? Even the best-killing Your Highness retreated. Can the others be stronger than the Your Highness? They can't fight and can't be able to make peace!

A talented man like Xu Xuan, his mouth was covered with blisters overnight, and his lips were like toad skin, terrifying and pitiful.

"Oh, it's such a sin!"

Wei Renpu came to visit him in person and brought Xu Xuan the medicine to remove the fire.

Xu Xuan looked at the dark medicine soup and had no idea about drinking it.

"Mr. Wei, if you have arsenic, give me a bottle, I will not be alive!"

Wei Renpu hurriedly persuaded, "Sir Xu is a famous scholar in Jiangnan. Everyone knows that if you don't give others face, how can you not give face to Xue Shi! Everything is easy to say, it's easy to say!"

Xu Xuan rolled his eyelids and said, "Take it serious?"

"Really!" Wei Renpu swallowed and replied seriously.

"Do you want to go to the imperial title?"

"It's okay, we are called the Southern and Northern Dynasties!"

After hearing this, Xu Xuan seemed to have been given a cardiotonic agent.

"Where are the cedes of land?"

"Is this... The court means that there is blood in the Great Zhou soldiers, and we will never give in!"

Xu Xuan thought about it, that is to say, Haizhou, Chuzhou, and Yancheng should be given up, while other places are still owned by the Tang Dynasty.

It seems acceptable.

"What about something else?"

"This...the key place, Dazhou, has given up, you should also give in and out, so that you can negotiate business."

"May I ask what should I give?"

"Grain!" Wei Renpu simply said: "Every year, Jiangnan must provide 3 million stones of grain, restore the canal, allow merchants to communicate, and pay tribute to 1 million pieces of silk, 500,000 taels of gold, and 500,000 taels of silver - this is the bottom limit of the Great Zhou Dynasty, how about it?"

Xu Xuan's face was solemn. When he came, Li Jing had told him that he could give some money and food, but it could not exceed 1 million. After all, Nan Tang's family was not rich.

Facing Wei Renpu's lion's mouth wide open, Xu Xuan was in a dilemma.

"Grandpa Wei, the emperor has the heart to love the people. No matter north and south, they are all descendants of Yan and Huang. Such exploitation and extortion are like sucking bones and marrow, which will only hurt the hearts of the people in Jiangnan. If the Great Zhou is regarded as a barbarian, this matter is probably not something the Holy Emperor likes to see?"

Wei Renpu thought carefully for a while, "That Master Xu, I will go to discuss with His Majesty again. See if it can be reduced by one or two?"

"Then please!"

Xu Xuan sent Wei Renpu out of the inn, but when he came out, a group of soldiers rushed over from a distance and cursed! I worked hard to defeat the Southern Tang Dynasty, and the Wei surnamed ran to the peace talks, which was completely lost to the people of the Great Zhou!

"Shameless old man, go to die!"
