Chapter 142: Reconciliation reached, Liao Kingdom withdraws its troops(1/2)
Ke Yufeng fell silent. No matter which of the conditions proposed by Fan Qianfeng, it was a very difficult choice for the Liao Kingdom.
The Liao Kingdom is a large human country and must not surrender to the Yun Kingdom. Otherwise, it will be a great shame and humiliation for the Liao Kingdom. In the future, the people of the Liao Kingdom will be inferior to the people of the Yun Kingdom.
But if you don't surrender, you will be in danger of being annihilated, which is even more humiliating.
Isn’t it a joke that the troops of a great country were completely wiped out?
If 30 million taels of silver are used as a condition for reconciliation, then the battle will end in a draw. The Liao Kingdom can retain more than 100,000 troops, but in the eyes of other countries, it is a public apology to the Yun Kingdom and an admission of guilt.
My own mistake.
Thirty million taels of silver is not a small amount.
The most important thing is that the Liao Kingdom did not get any benefits at all. It lost troops and generals in vain, and even lost a great scholar.
This is so ridiculous!
However, Ke Yufeng thought about it and found that there was only one option that was barely acceptable.
That is to compensate the Yun State for 30 million taels of silver in order to reach a reconciliation between the two parties. The Liao Army will not have to surrender to the Yun State and can preserve the Liao State's face to a large extent.
Ke Yufeng knew that Fan Qianfeng did this intentionally and wanted Ke Yufeng to choose the compensation situation to increase some military pay for the Yun Kingdom.
With military pay, the army can obtain a lot of supplies, and the great cause of pacifying the grassland tribes is just around the corner.
"Okay! Since Brother Fan has given the option, then Ke can only choose to reconcile. I will order the Liao court to provide 30 million taels of silver to support the Yun Kingdom."
"That sage represents the Yun Kingdom to express gratitude to the Liao Kingdom for its kindness."
Ke Yufeng changed the word "compensation" to "subsidy", and Fan Qianfeng did not correct him, because it was all paid by the Liao State, so there was not much difference, and it was considered as saving the last bit of face for the Liao State.
Qin Wentai, Ke Changyuan and others were extremely regretful and even blamed themselves.
Stealing the chicken will result in losing the rice. This is the biggest insult to military scholars like them!
"Kacha..."
"Kacha..."
The literary palace of Qin Wentai and Ke Changyuan sounded like cracks, and their literary courage was damaged.
Ke Changyuan couldn't bear the fact that his literary courage was broken. In addition, Ke Changyi was killed by the Holy Punishment. He couldn't help but feel sad. He rolled his eyes and fainted on the ground, with bleeding from the corner of his mouth.
"Let's retreat!" Ke Yufeng said.
"Student Qin Wentai, please obey the imperial edict."
Qin Wentai bowed in the direction of the Liao Kingdom and did not dare to violate the imperial edict. The sage's oral edict was more inviolable than the emperor's edict.
"We will obey the Holy Order!"
The generals of the Liao Kingdom also saluted together, and almost everyone looked very sad and angry.
This was a meaningless battle. The Liao Kingdom sacrificed so many people in vain, and they still had to give the Yun Kingdom 30 million taels of silver.
Ridiculous!
Shame!
But the mysterious cannon of the Yun State was so powerful that even if the two armies faced each other head-on, the Liao State could not defeat the Yun State's soldiers and horses, and was even in danger of being completely wiped out by the Yun State.
If the Liao Kingdom had weapons like the Mysterious Cannon, it would have been impossible for them to lose so miserably today.
Therefore, the people of Liao also hated their own court for being incompetent and failing to create weapons comparable to the Xuanji Cannon.
Today's humiliation will be unforgettable for every Liao person who participated in this battle.
Fan Qianfeng suddenly said again: "Your Liao Kingdom's horses and chariots are also very good. Let's give them to Yun Kingdom today!"
Many people in the Liao army were immediately furious. The dignified Half-Saint of the Yun Kingdom actually asked them for war horses and chariots.
The people of the Yun Kingdom were overjoyed. With these resources, it was enough to double the overall strength of the Yun Kingdom army.
This is something more valuable than thirty million taels of silver!
"Brother Fan, you..."
Ke Yufeng was a little annoyed. He agreed to Fan Qianfeng's conditions, but Fan Qianfeng actually kicked his nose in the face.
"Mr. Ke, don't forget, I tolerated your overstepping twice, don't bargain with me at this time." Fan Qianfeng's tone was serious.
Ke Yufeng suddenly lost his temper and could only blame himself for taking action for his own selfish purposes.
"What's more, we are all humans, what's wrong with you giving us some war horses and chariots? Isn't this a disgrace to your Liao army?"
Fan Qianfeng's words actually made some people in Liao feel a little bit reasonable.
There is nothing wrong with the human race helping the human race!
"Okay! Then let's go to the end and give these horses and chariots to the Yun Kingdom, but we can only give you half at most. Ke asked the Liao court to give you an extra one million taels of military pay."
p>
"Brother Ke is so happy that Fan won't be polite to you anymore." Fan Qianfeng's tone was very satisfied.
Qin Wentai's heart was bleeding. Half of the horses and chariots of the more than 100,000 troops were given to the Yun Kingdom.
"Shame!"
Qin Wentai wished he could hit him to death, his tears could not stop flowing, and he felt extremely regretful.
"Brother Fan, I wish your country of Yun will clear up the grassland as soon as possible. Ke took his leave."
Ke Yu withdrew his holy thoughts, and the golden dragon transformed into Ye Jinghong's ancient sword also regained its freedom, returned to his talent and returned to his literary palace.
"Huh..." Ye Jinghong breathed a sigh of relief.
"Congratulations to Ke Sheng!"
"Congratulations Mr. Ke!"
At this time, both the Yun and Liao people bowed in the direction of Liao.
"You can take care of yourself."
After Fan Qianfeng said these words, he also withdrew his holy thoughts.
"Congratulations to Fan Sheng!"
"Farewell to Mr. Fan!"
The two countries bowed together in the direction of Yun Guo.
The Yun people showed joy of victory, while the Liao people had sad faces.
King Yan stepped forward and said: "Qin Wentai, this is the territory of our Yun Kingdom after all. Now the two saints have reached an agreement and ordered you to retreat and leave the Yun Kingdom. Now please leave half of your chariots and horses, and then get out of the Yun Kingdom!"
”
"You..."
Qin Wentai was trembling with anger, the Liao generals were trembling with anger, and countless Liao soldiers were also trembling with anger.
The King of Yan actually told them to get out of the Yun Kingdom. This was an unbearable insult for everyone in the Liao army, but they had nothing to do with the King of Yan because they could not disobey Ke Yufeng's edict.
"His Royal Highness King Yan, we will meet again later."
Qin Wentai did not want to engage in meaningless verbal disputes, so he immediately issued a military order and led his troops to leave the Fourth City.
At the same time, he also sent people to notify the generals of the Liao army defending the third city, ordering them to leave half of their chariots and horses and retreat with the army.
After receiving the military order, the senior scholar guarding the third city was in disbelief and did not understand why Qin Wentai would issue such a ridiculous military order.
But since it is a military order, the city guarding bachelor can only obey it.
With the withdrawal of the Liao troops from the fourth and third cities, the Yun State army successfully took over and took back the territory that originally belonged to the Yun State.
After acquiring half of the chariots and horses left by the Liao Kingdom, the Yun Kingdom's cavalry and chariot troops were expanded and their overall strength became stronger.
Now that the border cities in the Western Region have been basically recovered, only the Second City and the First City are still in the hands of the grassland people. However, in the eyes of the Yun Kingdom, recovering the Second City and the First City is like picking up something from a bag.
The morale of the soldiers of the Yun Kingdom has greatly increased, and they have absolute confidence and strength to drive the grassland tribe out of the Western Region. Next, the grassland tribe will have to withstand the strong counterattack of the Yun Kingdom.
August 20th.
The second city in the Western Region.
After receiving the news that the Liao army had retreated, the expressions of many prairie princes became ugly.
Because according to the reports from the spies, the Yun Kingdom won the victory with basically no casualties, and it also received many chariots and horses from the Liao Kingdom.
On the other hand, the Liao Kingdom not only lost a great scholar, but also sacrificed many soldiers and horses. It became a joke to steal chicken but lose rice.
The grassland people's plan to reap the benefits was ruined.
Moreover, they also received news that Ye Jinghong, a great scholar from the Yun Kingdom, also came to the Western Regions.
Even the grassland people have heard of Ye Jinghong, who was an extremely powerful scholar.
Under the semi-saint, there are few opponents.
Now the morale of the Yun Kingdom is booming, but the grassland tribe has just suffered a setback and is in the stage of consolidation, so it is not suitable for a head-on conflict.
A prince said solemnly: "Brother, now the Yun army has powerful mysterious cannons, and has also obtained war horses and chariots from the Liao army. Its fighting capacity has been ten times that of before. If we continue to fight, our grassland people will
