The world of counterfeit magistrates competes in the world

Chapter 432 Delimiting the Buffer Zone
A few days later, Lin Yifan received a letter from Feige from the mall.

After reading the letter, Lin Yifan immediately summoned everyone to discuss, and finally decided to temporarily suspend the army and not continue to fight with the Donghu people.

Since there is no fight, it is necessary to negotiate and strive for the greatest benefit.Lin Yifan was going to send people to negotiate with the Donghu people to restore the peace on the northern border, so that Hengshan could set up a strategy for the Western Regions with peace of mind.

But how to talk about it, to what extent, and what benefits will be won for Hengshan?Everyone was at a loss for what to say, and made suggestions one after another.

The moderate faction headed by Han Song thinks that it is enough to stick to the [-]-mile buffer around the mall.During this period of the westward strategy, it is really inappropriate to entangle with the Donghu people for too long.

The radical faction headed by Guo Huaili believes that this battle seems to be a draw, but in fact, I, Hengshan, have stabilized the situation.Otherwise, the Donghu people would not take the initiative to request a truce.That being the case, there are articles to do in this.We, Hengshan, can build up momentum to the north of Xiayang Pass, constantly creating a posture of increasing troops and rushing to help, preparing for a big battle, and exerting heavy pressure on the Donghu people.Forcing the other party to give up the territory north of the mall, the former Youxian King's territory.In this way, the remnant soldiers of King Zuoxian can be settled, let them recuperate on this grassland, accumulate strength, and become our northern barrier.

To be honest, Lin Yifan was really moved by what Guo Huaili and others said.If it can be negotiated, the situation will be greatly beneficial to our side.If the Donghu people want to go west, they must enter the sphere of influence of the Golden Werewolf and fight the Golden Werewolf.At that time, Hengshan can calmly dispatch troops and generals to keep the enemy out of the country.Even in the future when they counterattack, they can use the Golden Werewolf forces as a bridgehead to reduce the required supply lines and directly attack Sirius City from the Golden Werewolf territory.

However, this idea was immediately extinguished by Ye Hongyu.He believed that the Donghu people would never agree to cede the territory of the former Youxian King.Such a strategically important place, no one can abandon it, otherwise, Sirius City will be within the scope of our surprise attack.If I forcefully ask for it from Hengshan, I will have to conquer the Donghu people again and again, which will definitely have a great impact on my westward strategy.Therefore, this negotiation should neither step on the bottom line of the other party, nor just stick to the three hundred miles.We need a piece of grassland that can accommodate Zuoxian King's family to recuperate and recuperate, as a barrier between us and the Donghu people.And this is the bottom line of our negotiation.

This strategy was immediately discussed by everyone, and everyone agreed that this strategy was safer and more feasible.

Seeing this, Lin Yifan immediately decided to send Jiang Yunchuan, who had just returned to Tongwan City a few days ago, to go to the grassland as an envoy again.Although he felt that Jiang Yunchuan was sorry for this move, there was nothing he could do. At this moment, the matter was of great importance, and he was the only one who could not do it.And this also exposes the worry that Hengshan is still lacking in talents and its background is not deep enough.

Far above the grassland, the original king's account of the headquarters of Youxian King.

Huerle led the army to come here, preparing to establish Xijing here, and bring this vast western grassland into the scope of his rule.However, when they came to this place, they saw from a distance that there were tombs everywhere, spreading for tens of miles.

Kuerle couldn't help being shocked, and quickly asked why this place is like this?Fortunately, there was a leader of the golden wolf who surrendered in the army, so he immediately came out and told him the story here.

When Ku'erle heard that this place had been breached by the Hengshan Army and slaughtered hundreds of thousands of people from Youxian King's headquarters, his face paled and he left the place silently.

Came to the site of the original Youxian King's tent, looking at the collapsed earth wall and the remaining rotten wood.Huerle had already thrown away the idea of ​​establishing Xijing here.

"Let's go!" After visiting this place, Kuerle was silent for a long time, and finally spoke.

On the way back, Taluhu asked puzzledly: "Your Majesty, aren't we planning to station an army here to build Xijing? Why did we give up again?"

Huerle rolled his eyes at him angrily, and said in a muffled voice, "This is an ominous place where hundreds of thousands of people have been massacred by the Hengshan Army. How can we build a capital and garrison here again? And this king's tent has already been destroyed. It was completely destroyed, and it would be better to rebuild it in another place than to build it here."

"I see." Tarouhu scratched his head, nodded half-understood.

Kuerle turned his head and looked forward, but in fact he still had something to say.The reason why the capital is not established here is that on the one hand it is indeed unknown, and on the other hand it is worried about the Hengshan Army's decisive attack.He didn't want that one day, this place would be breached and destroyed again by the Hengshan Army.

In just seven or eight days, the army came to the edge of the western grassland, which was about [-] miles away from the former Youxian King's tent, [-] miles away from Tianlang City, and a thousand miles away from Xiayang Pass.

Kuerle carefully inspected the surrounding terrain, nodded in satisfaction, and decided to build Xijing here.At the same time, he even stationed [-] troops here to deal with the pressure from Hengshan.Afterwards, he purposely left Taluhu and Zhou He behind, and ordered them to be responsible for guarding the western grassland.

After dealing with the matter here, Kuerle led the remaining [-] soldiers and horses, and headed towards Sirius City, where there was still a big battle waiting for him.

After nearly ten days of trekking, Jiang Yunchuan finally arrived at the location of the negotiation, the mall.At this time, as the envoys of the Donghu people, Fan Qi and others also arrived a day early.

Fan Qi, who is now one of the six phases of the Tianmeng Empire, did not need to surrender his identity to come here.But the situation in Sirius City at this time is turbulent, and conflicts are on the verge of breaking out.The previous opponents, even after Kurle took the lead in capturing the Skywolf City, categorically denied the previous promise and refused to join the Tianmeng Empire.He even took advantage of His Majesty's absence to do whatever he wanted in the city, arresting the Golden Werewolves as slaves, not paying attention to His Majesty's prohibition against disturbing the people.

For this reason, after returning to Sirius City, Huerle immediately summoned Fan Qi and appointed him as the envoy of the peace talks, and must reach an agreement with Hengshan.As long as there is no worry in the rear, he dispatched a large army from the Xijing garrison to suppress these opponents in one fell swoop.

Fan Qi naturally knew that this matter was of great importance. Now that the Mongolian Empire was newly established and people's hearts were unstable, His Majesty encountered setbacks here and was criticized by some tribes.Only by stabilizing Hengshan temporarily can we mobilize all our forces to deal with the counterattack of those opponents.So, he gladly accepted the order and rushed to Hengshan.

At this time, in the meeting room of the shopping mall, Jiang Yunchuan and Fan Qi sat at two ends, looking at each other.

After a long time, Jiang Yunchuan smiled lightly, "I'm going down to Jiang Yunchuan, and I'm the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Hengshan."

Fan Ying was taken aback for a moment, and immediately replied after seeing this: "I, Fan Qi, is the Minister of Courtesy of the Tianmeng Empire."

Jiang Yunchuan was also slightly taken aback, and immediately said with a smile: "Master Fan is here this time, but for the peace talks between you and me?"

Fan Qi took a deep look at him, secretly said that he knew the reason and asked.But he refused to show weakness, and smiled immediately: "Isn't Master Jiang also here for this?"

"Hmph, the former noble army invaded our Hengshan territory and killed countless soldiers of our army. How can we stop with this hatred?" Jiang Yunchuan's face changed suddenly, and he looked at him with cold eyes, and reprimanded in a deep voice.

Not to be outdone, Fan Qi said, "Hehe, it's ridiculous! Your army is protecting the remnants of the golden wolf, isn't it because you want to be my enemy? It's hostility, how can you be innocent?"

"The golden wolf has already surrendered to me, Hengshan, so he is my minister. If you want to question the crime, have you ever asked us?" Jiang Yunchuan looked at him coldly, "As the saying goes, you still need to look at the owner when you beat a dog. Your army's move is too much."

Fan Qi's complexion changed, and he thought to himself, with such a verbal argument, when will he be able to accomplish what His Majesty entrusted?Since Hengshan is interested in peace talks, why not let him get three points?

"Master Jiang, what is right and what is wrong, can't be explained in a few words." Fan Qi said solemnly, "Now you and I both have peace talks, so it's better to be open and honest, and make a decision as soon as possible, so as to avoid wars. I wonder if Master Jiang thinks so?"

"Haha, as Master Fan said, let's be honest and talk about it." Jiang Yunchuan stroked his short beard and said with a smile, "I don't know how Master Fan is here, how do you want to negotiate peace with me in Hengshan?"
