Chapter 282 Cheering Negotiation

Yan Zhengqing looked at Kong Donglai who was blocking the way, and smiled coldly and calmly, "Inspector Kong, the Kingdom of Jin has already surrendered, and the King Xian also accepted the surrender of the Kingdom of Jin, and with the order signed by King Xian himself, we can only withdraw our troops .”

Kong Donglai looked at Yan Zhengqing, and said almost word for word: "Then you abandon your comrades in arms like this?"

It's not easy to take the blame for abandoning your comrades-in-arms.

But Yan Zhengqing said indifferently: "Sorry, we have never been comrades-in-arms. The agreement signed in Xiandaihe earlier, the technology and items given to you are all given to you. I, Anyang, don't owe you anything."

"We still had a plan to attack Jin in the south!"

Yan Zhengqing shrugged suddenly, with a strange smile on his face: "Master Kong also said that this is a plan, not an agreement. Nowadays, plans are not as fast as changes, and we can only compromise with reality. Of course, now Jin These people in China are already very weak, you can continue to attack, we will not care.

In addition, the virtuous king is kind, and all the prisoners of Jin are left to you, which can be regarded as compensation for you. "

After finishing speaking, Yan Zhengqing ordered Qi Anyang's army to retreat quickly, and then retreated all the way back to Anyang without any pause. As for the captives, this is a hot potato. The letter clearly told Yan Zhengqing that he could not take a prisoner from Jin.

The people left at the scene were dumbfounded. But things are not too bad, just like what Yan Zhengqing said, the people from Kong Donglai can continue to fight, because the Jin army is already very tired, and now they are even more tired after hearing the message of "surrender Anyang". A blow - the mighty state of Jin surrendered to Anyang!

Kong Dong came to see Yan Zhengqing, and he really left, and all the captives stayed behind. His eyes flickered and he made a decision, "We still have 400,000 troops here, and Jin has only a little over 80,000, kill!"

This battle lasted until dawn; without the containment of Anyang and the command of the commander-in-chief Yan Zhengqing, Nan Gongzhi was slightly inferior after all, and Li Lisong finally began to turn defeat into victory; especially without the interference of a large number of planes, The Wanjian formation was activated three times, completely tearing apart the border defenses of Nanyang County.

It's just that after all, it was a long-term and exhausted army, and Li Lisong only took away less than 70,000 soldiers in the end; while the 100,000 border troops of the Jin State who supported Li Lisong on the periphery also suffered more than 10,000 casualties-almost all caused by arms.

Li Lisong didn't turn his head to look north until the army retreated to his checkpoint, his mood was extremely complicated.

…………

Anyang, it's dawn, and the new issue of the newspaper is selling like crazy. Last night, the newspapers worked overtime to add new content - Jin surrendered.

Sima Xuan, Prime Minister of the Jin Kingdom, came to Anyang and surrendered with the confession letter of His Majesty the Emperor of the Jin Kingdom. This means that this unprecedented war involving a lot of involvement, a large scale, and heavy casualties has finally come to an end.

During the day today, the high-level officials in Anyang will formally come forward to start negotiations with Sima Xuan.

Of course, before this, Li Xian had already had a long discussion overnight with Xu Ren, Li Yuanming, Yan Ze'an and others. Among them, Li Xian determined a very clear negotiation direction - we don't need too many things in name, we want practical benefits; in addition, Jin is a big country after all, we have to be careful.

Early in the morning, the news spread, spread all over the streets and alleys, and the newspapers were sold out in just half an hour. Anyang, Anyang, which is only a county, has defeated Jin! The state of Jin is almost two to three times the size of the Great Xia!

Shocked, unbelievable, cheering, overjoyed... People no longer know what kind of mood to use to express their feelings.

Dong Guanwu, a reporter for Anyang Daily, sat in the shadow of a viaduct, staring at the railway ahead in a trance. I rushed all night yesterday, and today I finally have a day off.

Every time he rests, Dong Guanwu likes to sit here and look at the viaduct above his head, the trains passing by, and the many people who come to see the excitement around him; and then he can overlook the city of Anyang, which changes every day. ——Yes, the city, Anyang has abolished the old name of "City", and replaced it with the word "City".

I remember three years ago, there was still an earthen house;

I remember three years ago, there was still a swamp;

I remember three years ago, there was a small pond there, and I touched small fish and shrimps after hours;

I remember that three years ago, the seventh and eighth floors of the Qi Refining Stage were masters in Anyang, and now the streets are full of Foundation Establishment Stages, and occasionally you can see the ancestors of the Nascent Soul Stage...

What caused the change now? What made the little Anyang win the "Jin State, which has always been the most powerful country in the East"?

The train roars, the newest train, faster. In the beginning, it was about 100 kilometers from Anyang to Dingshan City, which took two hours; the latest train only takes one hour.

"It was industry that defeated Jin! Yes, it was industry and commerce that defeated Jin, and it was the power of machines that defeated the power of people." Dong Guanwu jumped up suddenly, and accidentally bumped into the concrete pillar of the viaduct, making him dizzy Dazzling; but Dong Guanwu has already ignored these, ran home and immediately began to draft an article on "Machine Age".

…………

Anyang City Lord's Mansion is still the same as before, simple and solemn. The surrounding people have pulled down their old houses one after another, and built spacious and bright concrete buildings, but the City Lord's Mansion remains unchanged.

In the City Lord's Mansion and the main meeting hall, Li Xian, Xu Ren, Li Yuanming, Yan Ze'an, Ling Zhifeng, Fang Shijing, Gongsun Wushang and related personnel, a total of more than thirty people, sat in a row in the east.

On the other side, on the west side of the main hall, there is only one person, that is Sima Xuan, Prime Minister of the Jin Kingdom.

The situation is a bit weird, and it looks like a bit of a bully. Li Xian sat in the center, facing Sima Xuan.

Sima Xuan frowned a little, and was a little puzzled. It turned out to be something sitting in a row? According to the general negotiation rules for victory and defeat, isn't the winner sitting in the north, and the loser sitting in the south? Anyang, what is causing this trouble?

In fact, not to mention Sima Xuan, even many officials involved in the negotiations in Anyang today are a little confused; only Xu Ren and a few people have complacency, but also a hint of helplessness and wry smiles.

In fact, this arrangement of seats puts both parties on an equal footing—there are no winners and losers. Of course, this is only on the surface, and it can be regarded as saving a little face for Jin. The reason for sitting like this is another profound consideration: Anyang is going to follow the industrial and commercial development route.

If it is the route of national hegemony, it is simple, as long as the surrounding countries are conquered, it is enough. But if you want to take the industrial and commercial route, you have to "trade the world". All kinds of negotiations are unavoidable in the world of business; in order to prevent troubles in the future, the seats of the negotiating parties are simply arranged in this way.

After a long time, this kind of negotiation method has become a standard method of business negotiation - to symbolize that the two parties are equal transactions, mutually beneficial and win-win business exchanges. Of course, it's just a symbol.

But right now, the first implementation has left many people confused. Especially now, there is only one person on the Jin side, and only Prime Minister Sima Xuan.

Sima Xuan sat there, always feeling uncomfortable, wondering what Anyang was doing.

Li Xian spoke first, "Prime Minister Sima, before the negotiation, I would like to say something. I believe that everyone has the right to start a war, but the right to end a war is in the hands of the victor. What do you think?"

When Sima Xuan heard these words, his whole body was in shock - the threat in these words could no longer be more obvious. If the conditions you give us from Jin cannot satisfy us, we will continue to fight.

Facing Li Xian's bright eyes with a hint of coercion, Sima Xuan had no choice but to nod in agreement with the young man in front of him. "What King Xian said is too profound. One sentence points out the core of the war."

Seeing that Sima Xuan agreed, Li Xiancai continued: "Today, we are just negotiating with a general intention; for more specific negotiations, we will ask Prime Minister Sima to form a real negotiating team after returning home.

Next, I, Anyang, will talk about our negotiation conditions. "

Of course, there is no need for Li Xian to interpret the specific negotiation conditions. Naturally, the servant (secretary) is in charge. A servant put a piece of paper full of conditions in front of Sima Xuan. Sima Xuan accepted the conditions, and was suddenly... dumbfounded, as if he was different from before.

Here, seeing Sima Xuan in a daze, Li Xian nodded to the servant next to him. The waiter immediately began to read aloud.
