(Thanks to Ning Tianse, the 65th new leader...)

Facing the new order of Bianliang, King Jing asked them how they would deal with it, and Xu Huai also smiled bitterly.

Zheng Huaizhong, Gao Chunnian and others were already afraid of fighting. They could still be called a certain combat power among the troops from Dayue. They delayed their head-on confrontation with the enemy in Gong County. Now the peace talks in the temple are surging again, Emperor Tianxuan is timid and incompetent, and even the surrender faction of Tianzi No. 1. How could such a general trend be able to be countered by such a small group of people?

Zhou He came with his order, but it was just a key and irreversible step that was the irreversible and destined to come.

Xu Huai could even imagine what would happen next:

Tens of thousands of Western troops with certain combat effectiveness were in Gongxian County, and Yanshi was in absent-minded manner. The peace talks had the upper hand in Bianliang. At the same time, under the coercion of tens of thousands of enemy soldiers, in order to reach a peace talk, they would do their best to satisfy the force extortion of the Chihu people.

The Chihu people were satisfied and further completely attacked the military potential of Dayue, fulfilled their established strategic intentions, and "withdrew" the peace talks and the noble but cowardly and incompetent Emperor Tianxuan not only could they understand it, but they deeply realized that Dayue had fallen into the abyss, but they would even indulge in this fragile and false "peace" and even take it as a merit.

The true generals and ministers of the war-first faction headed by Wang Bing will naturally be rejected and suppressed again.

When the Chihu people invaded the south again, the defensive forces near Bianliang and the capital of the capital were destined to become increasingly fragile, and the capital of Dayue, Bianliang, was destined to be unable to escape the fate of falling.

"It is hard to disobey the Holy Order. This time, it is no longer possible for me and Your Highness to rebel against the people of Chihu. However, considering that the people of Chihu are not prepared for this invasion of the south, the apparent 'peaceful discussion' is still expected to be reached, and the siege of Bianliang can be lifted before the end of April. After May, the flood season between the rivers and Huai Rivers will enter one after another, with heavy rain and floods. Chihu should retreat north before May."

Xu Huai pondered for a while and said,

"The government and the people may be able to reach a peace agreement, and the captives retreat northwards and lose their powers. We must not be vigilant about the ambitions of the Chihu people. After the Chihu people retreat northwards, it is likely to occupy Hedong and the northern part of Hebei will not go. As soon as October autumn dusk, we may invade the south again. We must do our best to make more preparations for this..."

"It is very likely that all the conditions raised by the Chihu people will be delayed for only five or six months?" Qian Shangduan asked in shock.

As a scholar, Qian Shangduan has never been a strong pro-war faction. Sometimes he is inevitably drifting with the flow. At this moment, he is inevitably illusory about "peace discussion".

Of course, he knew that he was consistent with King Jing Zhao Tuan in front of outsiders, and only when the inside people sat down to discuss, he would still ask some of the doubts in his heart.

"We don't want to say whether there are people in the court secretly accomplices the barbarians, but as long as the Western army is not moving forward and the court takes the initiative to send ministers to seek peace, does the Chihu people completely understand how urgent it is to seek peace in the court? In this case, what conditions will the Chihu people ask for before they pretend to agree to withdraw from the Hehuai army?" Xu Huai looked at Qian Shangduan and asked, "Mr. Qian Langjun, what conditions would you offer if you were the Khan of Chihu?"

"It is certain that you will give up a lot of money and silk," Qian Shangduan frowned and thought, "At this time, except for the Chihu soldiers entering the Hehuai River, there are still soldiers and horses surrounding Taiyuan, Dingzhou, and Xiongzhou. Most of the Chihu people would ask the court to cut off these three towns and give in to them..."

"What Qian Langjun said is very much. If I were a Chihu people, I would also ask for the seizure of Taiyuan, Dingzhou and Xiongzhou towns," Xu Huai said. "If the court urgently seeks peace and is willing to cut off these three towns, will it be possible to establish an effective resistance to the Chihu people in Taiyuan, south of Xiongding within half a year? If there is no resistance, Chihu troops and horses are still staying in Taiyuan, between Xiongding, why don't they go south again after the autumn? Do they taste the sweetness and don't know what the bitterness is, will they really be satisfied? Qian Langjun, don't forget that Chihu people still have tens of thousands of elite cavalry in Taiyuan at this time. Once Taiyuan does not fight, they fall into their hands. When the south invades again, these Chihu cavalry will also come together!"

Qian Shangduan remained silent, and King Jing Zhao Tuan was also frowning.

Xu Huai said: "It is inevitable that the Chihu people will invade the south again. What Your Highness can do should protect the generals and ministers in the court who are willing to fight and dare to fight as much as possible, and they are the last guard and reliance of the Great Yue!"

Many things were powerless to change at this time.

The peace talks were not allowed to be stopped by Xu Huai; after the Chihu people withdrew their troops, King Jing Zhao Tuan was recalled to Bianliang, and the Chihu people's re-invasion of the south was not allowed to be stopped by Xu Huai.

However, Xu Huai could also see that some subtle points had changed quietly.

The practice of the prince not interfering in the affairs of the court has actually been broken.

Even if Emperor Tianxuan is timid, foolish and incompetent, he would never really think that the threat was completely lifted after the peace agreement was reached, and he could rest assured again.

In fact, the complete bankruptcy of the coalition forces in the attack on Yan and the ravage of the Hehuai cavalry of Chihu will inevitably seriously weaken the trust of Emperor Tianxuan in ministers such as Wang Qiyong and Wang Boqian. Of course, Emperor Tianxuan eventually turned to the peace talks. In addition to his weakness and incompetence, it also proves that he has a serious lack of trust in those pro-war factions such as Wang Bing.

In this special period, princes interfering in politics will not only not become a taboo, but may even become a reliance that is not too much deep in the heart of Emperor Tianxuan.

Next, what Xu Huai hoped that King Jing, Zhao Tuan, did was to use Zhang Xin, Ling Jian, Yu Gong, Han Wende and others to control the tomb guarding army. Before the court issued a formal order to truce the war, as many enemies from the flanks were attacked west of Hulao Pass as much as possible - Deng Gui and Yang Qiye's troops could be directly incorporated into the tomb guarding army. I believe Hu Kai would also cause this.

The terrain between Hulao and Gong County was not conducive to the cavalry galloping and fighting, and the Chihu people also mainly used the surrendered army to build large camps to block the western army's way of advancing eastward.

The guarding army leans on favorable terrain such as the Yuhuangling, avoids the Red Hu cavalry and specializes in challenging the attacks of the under-fighting army with weak combat power. They can seize the last opportunity, constantly temper and strengthen their combat effectiveness.

After the peace agreement was reached and the Chihu people withdrew their troops, King Jing Zhao Tuan had no reason to stay in Bianliang. He could ask for an order to organize the tomb guards into the imperial guards of the capital and take them back to Bianliang. After returning to Bianliang, the chance of fighting out of the town in a short time may be slim, but the power of the pro-war faction should be preserved as much as possible, especially to try to win Wang Bian to stay in Bianliang as much as possible to avoid being excluded from the peace talks.

The Chihu people were inevitably invaded south again, but Xu Huai believed that Wang Bing could stay in Bianliang, more or less, should play some role; and Xu Huai also believed that when the situation was so bad that Wang Bing should be able to see that King Jing Zhao Tuan could leave the capital and retain the greatest hope for Da Yue.

Only with the support of Wang Bing, Xu Huai was confident that when the situation was extremely bad, he could still escort King Jing Zhao Tuan out of Bianliang.

Of course, this premise is that Wang Bing is in Bianliang by then.

Xu Huai himself had already broken up with Zheng Huaizhong, Gao Chunnian and others tonight, and they were left to embarrass each other. The enemy soldiers were already alert to them enough, and it would be difficult to play a big role in harassing them from the flanks.

He did not want to waste the elite Tongbai Mountain soldiers in a harassing battle that was of little significance. He was preparing to take the surrendered soldiers back to Tongbai Mountain when they gathered them from the north slope of Songshan Mountain. Tongbai Mountain is still too short of young and strong. Even if these surrendered soldiers brought them back to Tongbai Mountain to supplement their lack of green and strong labor, it would be better than handing over them as achievements.

He talked with King Jing and Qian Shangduan about the early morning when Xu Huaicai returned to the camp, but he still had no rest and left Lu Xiong to speak in the tent.

"The King of Kings is unwilling to intervene in the battle for the legitimate battle, so we have some little thoughts to hide from the Kings, but in just over ten days, who would have thought that the situation would change like this?" Xu Huai drank hot tea and said to Lu Xiong, "I believe that the bad situation at this time can already make Wang Xiang think about how ugly the worst situation will be. If it is difficult to win suddenly, if this is destined to be a protracted war, I believe that the King of Kings will no longer stick to the old opinions..."

"Do you want me to go back to Beijing immediately to meet Wang Xiang and persuade Wang Xiang to support King Jing?" Lu Xiong asked.

Xu Huai nodded and said:

"People who persuaded Wang Xiang to support King Jing was one aspect, and it was also to persuade Wang Xiang to temporarily endure it. At this time, the peace talks were made. Wang Qiyong, Wang Boqian and others were the culprits, but they were still unstable in the government. The peace talks were inevitable, especially after the Chihu people withdrew, Wang Wang must claim to be a master of great achievements. Wang Xiang was straightforward and quarreled with it, and it was difficult to win the support of the government. Why not leave the last strength when the Chihu people invaded the south again? If the Chihu people invaded the south again, Wang Xiang had been squeezed out of the capital by the king and Wang Wang, who would the generals and King Jing who would dare to fight in the world, who would they rely on?"

"Okay, I'll leave now." Lu Xiong said.
