Chapter 501: Negotiating peace before the battle and grappling with old friendships
Zhai Bin's expression changed. His eyes, which had been squinting slightly, suddenly opened wide and he looked at the person. Under the interplay of moonlight and firelight, he saw an iron tower-like figure wearing a helmet and carrying a big bow.
, with a quiver tied on each side of his legs, he did not show off his face, a face with sharp edges and thick eyebrows stained with ink was displayed in front of everyone. Isn't it the magic archer Tan Pingzhi?
Zhai Bin gritted his teeth and rode out. Zhai Zhen quickly said: "Ah Da, don't go, let the child go."
Zhai Bin didn't look back, and the wrinkles on his face jumped up and down: "The entire Zhai clan has a population of tens of thousands, and can you decide the lives of the more than 10,000 soldiers on this beach?"
The corner of Zhai Zhen's mouth curled up, and he could not speak. He could only wave his hand, and with more than ten guards around him, followed Zhai Bin's horse and marched forward.
Fifty steps in front of the formation, Tan Pingzhi held a white tiger flag high. As if Yue Yuan was standing still, Zhai Bin galloped to the place about five steps in front of him and smiled slightly: "Brother Tan, long time no see."
Tan Pingzhi pressed his fist on his chest and saluted in the manner of a Ding Ling person: "Hello, Mr. Datou, Mr. Tan, on behalf of Liu Yu, our military commander, would like to say hello to you and wish you good health."
Zhai Bin's white eyebrows raised: "What, Liu Yu? Isn't he a soldier? How did he become a military leader?"
Tan Pingzhi raised his head and smiled slightly: "The big head man doesn't know something. Just now, Liu Yu, as a small soldier sergeant, commanded our three brothers to rush through Luojian and defeat Liangcheng. Therefore, my Yingyang General Liu Lao
He has been promoted to military commander immediately."
Zhai Bin sighed: "Sure enough, heroes emerge from youth. Maybe I am really old. This world will be the world of young warriors like Liu Yu and your brother Tan in the future."
Zhai Zhen said in a deep voice: "Tan Pingzhi, you used to go all the way south and were chased by the Qin army. When you were desperate, it was our Zhai tribe Ding Ling who saved you. Today you are here arrogant as a winner. Isn't it a bit
Too much?"
Tan Pingzhi said coldly: "When you joined the Qin army and went south, and the cities and villages you passed were burned, killed and looted, didn't you think that there would be the result today? You took me in at that time, but I also
I have handed over all the valuables on my body, and I have long been indebted to both of you. Today, we are all wearing military uniforms and armors, and we are each our own masters. We should fight for our lives. It is too much to talk about these old friendships!"
Zhai Zhen's expression changed, and when he was about to speak, Zhai Bin waved his hand and said with a smile: "Okay, okay, brother Tan, we haven't seen each other for many years, so there is no need to hurt our friendship like this. Now we are in front of the two armies. You represent the Jin Dynasty."
Army, and I am the Qin Army. You and I are inherently hostile. We have just rekindled our old friendship, and now we can talk about the current affairs."
Tan Pingzhi smiled slightly: "Zhai Datou, the outcome of the strong and weak is now clear at a glance. I think everyone knows it in their hearts. However, when the outcome is so clear, Brother Liu Yu still asked me to come for peace talks. That is
Thinking of the past, I want to save some energy for the big-headed man."
Zhai Zhen sneered and said: "The winner is clear? Not necessarily. We still have tens of thousands of soldiers here, seven or eight times as many as you. If we really fight, we still don't know who will win and who will lose!"
Tan Pingzhi sighed, raised his hand high, clenched his fist and waved it three times in the air. In an instant, seven streaks of smoke of different colors rose up from Liu Yu's military formation, almost at the same time.
, on the other side of Jianshui, drums were beating loudly, and the sound of killing was shaking the heaven and earth. In the dense forest, countless torches were shining, as if there were thousands of troops shouting and roaring. The sound was so loud that it shocked the sergeants of Ding Ling.
All his subordinates were shocked and trembling all over. Even Zhai Zhen had cold sweat breaking out on his forehead and did not dare to say another word.
Tan Pingzhi had a smile on his face, waved his hand again, and the smoke stopped the sound of the golden drum on the opposite side. He looked at Zhai Bin and said calmly: "Big head man, our army has been at Caiqiao Beach for a long time.
If it weren't for the fact that Liu Yu's progress was too smooth and Liang Cheng was defeated in one fell swoop, the army on the opposite side would have been ambush. The reason why we are holding back right now is because we remember our old relationship with you and want to give you a way out.
, if you are still like my nephew and think you can fight, then there is nothing to say."
Zhai Bin gritted his teeth: "You obviously have such a huge advantage that you can eliminate us. Even Liang Cheng's elite can't stop your assault, and it's even impossible for me here. Besides, you have troops to our north. We have two sides."
If you are under attack, it is no longer useful to stop you with Jianshui, so why do you still need to come to me to negotiate terms?"
Tan Pingzhi said sternly: "My eldest brother Liu said that in life, one should clearly distinguish between grudges and grudges, and repay kindness with kindness and revenge with hatred. Back then, Mr. Zhai Datou saved Brother Wei and me, as well as the whole clan of Brother Meng. This was a life-saving grace.
We also facilitated the connection between Brother Liu and the envoy from the north. This is a helping hand. We should repay these two kindnesses today so that we can be worthy of our hearts."
Zhai Zhen nodded quickly and said: "Brother Tan, what you said is good. We are old friends. Does Commander Liu mean to let us go? We must abandon our troops and return to the tribe. We will never serve the Qin State again."
I worked hard."
Tan Pingzhi sighed: "Zhai Datou, you must know that we came to destroy you under the order of General Yingyang. When we set off, General Yingyang said, your Dingling Zhai tribe, this time
Joining the Qin army in the expedition, he committed many sins and bad things along the way. He robbed Xuyi, plundered Pengcheng, burned San'a, massacred Yuzhou, killed and plundered countless Jin people, and robbed mountains of gold and silver treasures.
When Liu Yu was in Shouchun, he encountered many refugees fleeing from the north. When he arrived in Shouchun, he refused to go south again. He just wanted to kill a few Dingling people with his own hands for revenge. And the order our Beifu Army received was,
If I don’t accept your surrender, I will kill them all and leave no one behind!”
Zhai Bin gritted his teeth and looked at Zhai Zhen: "Are these things really happening?"
Zhai Zhen knew clearly that his father was acting with him, and he muttered in his heart: Ada, you taught us to steal money, food, and women! But he said, "These kids really don't know, maybe some black sheep are taking advantage of the situation."
Well, I have applied military discipline to them many times, and even killed dozens of rioters who committed murder and swindled goods!"
Having said this, Zhai Zhen gritted his teeth and looked at Tan Pingzhi: "Brother Tan, this must be a misunderstanding, a huge misunderstanding. We Dingling people have always sought wealth without harming our lives. You also know this.
The next time they go south, the Qin army has millions of people, and all the ferocious ethnic groups are accompanying them. Someone must have done those evil things under the banner of our Dingling tribe and wants to frame us, so don't be fooled!"
