Summoning the world to be one

Chapter 22
Chapter 22: Han Summation
After summoning five talents, Deng Sheng stopped summoning again, and then went to Qilin Pavilion, met Zhang Bin, and after talking with him, he appointed him as a participant, accompanied by the king, and went to Zhang Bin at the same time. On a trip to Jiang Wan's office, he met Fan Zhongyan and promoted him to be Jiang Wan's deputy.

At the same time, Chang'an, the capital of the Han Dynasty, was engaged in a fierce debate.

After the fall of Wuguan, Chang'an immediately organized troops to recover the lost ground, but just as the army was about to set off, the news of Fan Yi's defeat and death came, and the whole country was shocked. , is also a descendant of Fan Kuai, the founding general of the Han Dynasty. The Fan family was also a very prominent general in the Han Dynasty. When Fan Yi died, the entire army of 20 troops was wiped out. Deng Guo.

However, civil servants strongly opposed it. In the first battle of Deng Guo, Han Guo lost its soldiers and generals, and more than one-third of its soldiers and horses were all lost in Deng Guo. Most of the soldiers and horses in the army came from Chang'an, Xianyang and other important towns in Guanzhong. This time, the 20 troops were wiped out, leaving Guanzhong empty. What's more terrible is that Wuguan, the southeast gateway of Guandong, fell into the hands of Deng Guo. Deng Guo can cross Wuguan at any time and attack Guanzhong. Guanzhong is the core of Han. If there is any loss in Guanzhong, it will be worse for Han.

Therefore, in the eyes of civil servants, the most important thing at present is to negotiate peace with Deng Guo and take back Wuguan. As for directly sending troops to take back Wuguan, they dare not think about it. Everyone knows the danger of Wuguan, and it is not so easy to win. What's more, the strength of the Han State is greatly weakened now, and the surrounding countries will not let go of such a good opportunity. If they continue to fight against the State of Deng, the State of Han will fall into the situation of being attacked from both sides.

"Your Majesty, General Fan's entire army was annihilated and died for the country. This is a great shame and humiliation for my great man. My minister Zhou Shen begs for orders to lead the army to fight Deng Guo again." Han Zhou Shen hurried back to Chang'an after receiving the news , Ask the King of Han for orders, and plan to fight Deng Guo again.

"Your Majesty must not." Cao Qun, Sinonong of the Han Dynasty, quickly objected, saying: "My Majesty, now our country has suffered heavy losses, and with Qin, Zhao, Wei, and Shu staring at each other, soldiers and horses from all over the country cannot be mobilized, and the Guanzhong is empty and powerless. To fight again, the only plan now is to make peace with Deng Guo, take back Wuguan, and recuperate.” Cao Qun believes that the most important thing for Han is to make peace with Deng Guo, take Wuguan back, and recuperate. It's not going to go to war again to crusade against the Deng country. Fan Yi's defeat this time shows that the Deng country is not easy, and it can't be won in a short time. The country is really in danger of subjugation. Besides, Fan Yi has lost, so how can you guarantee that you, Zhou Shen, will win? If you lose again, the Han Kingdom will really be cool.

"Does Situ want me to swallow my words? Even if Situ is willing, my hundreds of thousands of soldiers will not be willing. I agree with General Zhou's opinion and send troops to fight Deng Guo again." Han Guo Pingdong General Xu Jie was obsequious to these civil servants He couldn't understand it all the time, not to mention that his younger brother Xu Kang died in the battle in Deng Guo, which made him even more angry.

"What do you think of Xiao Xiang?" Liu Xie, king of Han, is sitting on the throne. He is 36 years old this year and has been in power for 18 years. But he slapped him hard, woke him up, and hurt him. At this time, he no longer had the calmness of the past, but was a little flustered.

The prime minister Xiao Qi is an important minister of the two dynasties. He became the prime minister of the Han Dynasty during the reign of the previous Han king. This time, it lasted for 30 years. He has a high prestige in the country. He is also the descendant of Xiao He, the founding prime minister of the Han Dynasty. The family has been prominent in the Han Dynasty for more than 200 years, and the Megatron Shilin, under normal circumstances, as long as it is Xiao Qi's opinion, Liu Xie will adopt it.

Xiao Qinian was almost ancient, with white hair all over his head. He was squinting his eyes to watch the crowd quarrel. After hearing Liu Xie's words, he slowly opened his eyes and said, "Your Majesty, this battle is too much for a big man like me. When you are old, you don't have a few years of hard work, and it is difficult to recover your vitality. It is really inappropriate to fight again, and the old minister agrees with Cao Sinong's opinion, let's make peace."

"Xiao Xiang, this..." Xu Jie was a little surprised, how could Xiao Qi advocate a peace negotiation?He was the most staunch in the past, and he always advocated fighting to the end against the enemy country. What happened today.

"General Xu, I know that General Xu Kang died in battle, you are extremely sad, and I don't feel any better than you, but with the current situation of my big man, I really can't fight anymore. We will avenge all the soldiers who died in the battle against Deng, but not now, I hope you can understand." Xiao Qi's attitude is very firm, but he can't fight anymore. In the past, his attitude towards the enemy was tough because Han suffered a loss. It’s not big, but this time it’s really hurting. It’s not as simple as losing a few thousand people in the past, 2 or 20 people, but a total of [-] people, which is more than one-third of the soldiers and horses of the Han Dynasty. Since the founding of the country, except for the battle of Gao Wang Liu Bang and Pengcheng, it has never been defeated so badly.

Xu Jie wanted to say something else, but was held back by Zhou Shen. Zhou Shen knew that if Xiao Qi did not agree to fight again, it would be useless to say anything else. Xiao Qi's position in Liu Xie's heart was unmatched by anyone.

"Okay, since that's the case, let's send someone to Deng Guo to negotiate a peace, Zhao Xin, I have ordered you to go to Deng Guo to discuss the peace talks. You will be fully responsible for this peace talk." Now that Xiao Qi agreed to negotiate a peace, Liu Xie It was settled.

"Here!" Dahonglu Zhao Xin came out and said.

Wancheng
It has been a month since the war ended. Deng Sheng thought that Han would send troops to fight for Wuguan. Deng Sheng even planned to increase troops to Wuguan. Unexpectedly, a whole month passed, and there was no movement from Han. Deng Sheng was puzzled by the news that Han sent envoys to Wancheng.

"Cui Qing, Yao Qing, Zhang Qing, what do you think is the purpose of Han Guo sending people here?" Deng Sheng called several think tanks under his command to analyze Han Guo's intentions.

Zhang Bin smiled and said, "Your Majesty, I thought that the Han Kingdom sent people here for peace talks."

"Peace talks? With the character of Han Guo?" Deng Sheng was very puzzled. In his impression, Han Guo's attitude has always been very tough. No matter who he is fighting with, he will not admit defeat. Even the old chasm alliance was for the sake of Yin Xiangyu, not sincere, but this time Zhang Bin actually said that the Han Kingdom came for peace talks, which made him unbelievable.

Zhang Bindao: "Your Majesty, in the past, the Han State was tough because the losses were small and innocuous, but this time it was different. The 20 army was wiped out, and a large number of top talents died. No matter how strong the Han State is, it cannot stand it." With such a toss, as long as there is a sensible person in Han, they will know that now they can only negotiate a peace."

When Zhang Bin said this, Deng Sheng understood that although the Han Kingdom was strong, it was limited, and it lost 20 yuan at one time. The current territory of the Han Dynasty is only Guanzhong, Sili, and Hanzhong?If the Han Kingdom still chooses to fight again under such circumstances, I am afraid that next time his opponent will no longer have only one Deng Kingdom, so peace talks are imperative. Even if the Han Kingdom does not send people, it will not be long. I will also send people to Chang'an. Since Han Guo took the initiative to send people, then Deng Guo took the initiative.
