Chapter 527

Originally thought that Yang Chendong would not let himself leave so easily, but he didn't want to allow himself to leave. Is this self-confidence? Or arrogant?

But anyway, it's always good to get out of here first. At that moment, Li Yuanlong got up and nodded, "please don't worry, I know what to do."

Li Yuanlong finally left. Until he left, Yang Chendong didn't stand up from his chair once. He just called Hu mang outside the tent and asked him to send the crown prince of Jiaozhi country away. If you don't, I'm afraid Li Yuanlong can't go back to the city safely.

The tiger awn soon returned. "Young master, I've sent them away."

It's not the main thing to come back for life. The main thing is to ask how a person is talking and what mercenaries are going to do next.

Yang Chendong, who was very clear about the idea in Hu Mang's heart, first nodded his head and then ordered: "inform all officers to attack the city at noon tomorrow."

Yang Chendong knew that Li Yuanlong and his father Li Li would never agree to their conditions. If the whole country surrendered without even fighting, it would be difficult for the faint king to make such a decision, not to mention the Li family father and son who boast that they still have some ability.

But he still let Li Yuanlong leave. I'm afraid only he would know the reason.

Yang Chendong intended to do so. He wanted to set an example for others. He could give anyone a chance, but the opportunity was only once. If you didn't grasp it, the consequences would be unimaginable. In this way, when using such means against other small countries in the future, they will seriously consider it. As long as a small country comes down without war, the work tonight will not be in vain.

This is Yang Chendong's intention. He cares about the future and future situation. But Li Yuanlong, who could not see it, came to the city in panic, returned to the tower with a hanging basket, and soon appeared in front of his father Li Li.

The prince came back. In the temporary palace, not only Li Li didn't rest, but all the civil servants and military generals didn't rest. They were waiting for the prince to return and wanted to see what kind of requirements the other party put forward, how they should respond, and even what kind of concessions they made.

As soon as he entered the temporary hall, Li Yuanlong could feel that hundreds of eyes were looking at him. If it had been in the past, he would have been secretly happy because of being noticed, but at this moment, he felt a little annoyed with being stared at.

"What's the matter, dragon?" this time, Li Li, as king, took the lead in opening his mouth without waiting for others to ask. From this point of view alone, we know that he has lost his former composure.

This is not to blame Riley, and it has nothing to do with his age. It's all because just after Prince Li Yuanlong left the city, after discussing with the generals, he was surprised to find that they had no way to face mercenaries and could not see a glimmer of hope of victory.

That's what surprised Li Li. Is there no other way to go except negotiation and concession?

It is precisely because of this that he put all his hopes on his son. He just hopes that Li Yuanlong can bring him a good result. Although he knew that the mercenaries at this moment would speak to the lion, he still hoped that the other party would be more polite. After all, the Han people are not used to learning Confucianism, talking about the golden mean and talking about the style of a big country. Do they have to forgive people and forgive people? As long as you are convinced, you will usually get their understanding. Perhaps it is this point that once the Han people are weak, so many people will stand up and bully them.

This is what the Han people are most willing to do. Often doing so can also bring them an excellent reputation. But they never thought about how to repay virtue?

Of course, it's a little further. When Li Yuanlong heard that his father asked in person, he didn't know how to answer for a moment. He stood there for a long time without making his own voice.

Li Yuanlong's silence, but he was worried about the old king Li Li, "Long'er, what's the matter? Haven't you seen the loyal and brave Duke of Daming?"

Shaking his head, Li Yuanlong said, "I see."

"See? What did he say?" Li Li was relieved, but after watching for a long time, Li Yuanlong stopped talking and said anxiously, "did he put forward any harsh conditions? What's the matter? You're talking."

Not only was the king anxious, but the other ministers also looked anxious, waiting for Li Yuanlong's answer.

First, he took a deep breath. Maybe he also knew that some things could not be avoided. Instead of hiding them and letting people suspect, he might as well say them openly. Perhaps before there is no way back, we can give full play to our physical potential and defeat mercenaries.

"The prince saw him, and he only made one request..." the next time, Li Yuanlong said in detail the process of meeting Yang Chendong. His memory is still good, almost nothing is missing, but therefore these words have a great impact on everyone. Perhaps no one can imagine that the other party's appetite is so big.

I don't know when King Riley had returned to the big chair, and his face was ugly and terrible.

Other ministers were not much better. In addition to some ministers with low official positions still whispering and expressing their views, some important ministers with city government and ability kept silent and just stood there with a dark face.

For them, negotiation was the only hope. As long as the other party can withdraw, Jiaozhi will have the opportunity to start over again. As for what they have to pay for this, there is no way. Who let their enemy be mercenaries, who let them send troops to Nanming first, and let the assassin named moto be Jiaozhi people?

With this, they should pay some price, or there is no way. But now, Yang Chendong wants the whole Jiaozhi, which is not what he wants to see. It's just that they don't kill too much, let alone that they have been killed all the time. Now they don't even give themselves a way back. How can they accept such conditions when they are already wronged.

"No, we can't just admit defeat. Our troops are more than ten times their strength and still have the strength of the first war." Chen Heijin, the famous general in the Jiaozhi army, was the first to make his own voice.

"Yes, we can't admit defeat. Even if we die in battle, we can't be scared to death." another famous general, fan Yuhai, who is known as a high IQ, also said, and still had the same meaning as Chen Heijin.

With these two men taking the lead, the meaning of the army side is basically very clear, which also brings hope to King Riley, "how much confidence do you have to defeat mercenaries?"

Facing the king's problem, the two famous generals first looked at each other, and then shook their heads together. After seeing the power of mercenary weapons today, where are they confident that they can defeat their opponents?

"Well, how much confidence do you have to keep the city intact?" although Li Li was disappointed, he knew it was not the fault of the two generals. It was really that mercenaries were too strong, which was completely beyond the power of this era. It looks like the Qing Dynasty against the Eight Power Allied forces. No matter how many soldiers you have, when cold weapons face hot weapons, there is no chance of winning.

"I don't know, but I always have to keep it. If I can't, I'll fill it in. If the will of the Nanming emperor can arrive earlier, maybe things will turn around." fan Yuhai shook his head first, but then gave everyone hope. That is, they still have foreign aid.

It's funny to say that this foreign aid is the Nanming regime that they have always regarded as the enemy and took advantage of.

This is also a matter of no way. If you don't point to Nanming, I'm afraid Jiaozhi won't exist. You know, this is different from the previous courtship to Daming. At that time, they were only superficial obedience. At most, others sent several officials to this town. They still had full autonomy. Even if the time is right, it is very easy to rise. However, once the mercenaries surrender, the future is really uncertain. Maybe there will be no possibility of turning over forever.

Fan Yuhai put his hope on Nanming, and King Li had some hope. But after thinking about it, it seems that there is only one way at present, so I have to say with a helpless tone: "Well, even so, then prepare for the war. Prepare the catapults in the city, whether they can't hit them, but at least they can play a deterrent role. In addition, when fighting, we must establish a powerful supervisor team in the rear. Today's scene of withdrawal after defeat can't happen again."

Before the crown prince came back, we talked about today's World War I with some pitiful elements. In their opinion, if today's soldiers can continue to rush without fear of life and death, they may be able to come to those mercenaries. In that case, they may see the hope of victory.

The king made a decision that he must fight. Then he delayed until the emperor of the Southern Ming Dynasty stopped mercenaries. In order to achieve this goal, Li Li first took out his own 30000 King's guards. Then the prince also took out his most elite 20000 Prince's soldiers.

Then there are the 25000 black soldiers of Chen Heijin and the 20000 elephant soldiers of fan Yuhai. Together, they are 100000 elite, plus more than 100000 other standing troops. If you insist on trust, you should be able to resist for a while.
