C2305 Prepare for Peace Talks Let's Do It

3"Your Majesty, please calm down." Wu Yan waited for the king to vent his anger before he said loudly, "Now, the matter has already happened. Minister Lee has also died in battle. The most important thing for us now is to discuss how to quell the fury of the Fengjue Country. "

Among the important ministers, Wu Yan had the highest status. Therefore, it was best for him to speak at this moment.

" What Minister Li?! He was just a piece of trash. Did he die in battle? He was killed by the rebels when he was fleeing for his life! Zhen ordered that Li Yuangu and Minister of War be removed from his position because he was not able to command. Fleeing at the last minute, we will now take his home!" After hearing Wu Yan's words, the emperor of Great Lu Dynasty roared once more. Obviously, he hated Li Yuangu very much in his heart. Even if Li Yuangu was already dead, he couldn't let him die as Minister of War.

"Humph! He just died there. If he comes back, Zhen will cut him into a thousand pieces!" The king said angrily.

Li Yuangu was still thinking of escaping. At most, he would be reprimanded. Soon, he would become the mighty Minister of War. However, he had clearly underestimated the importance of this war in the king's heart.

It could be said that the king of Great Lu Dynasty attached great importance to this war. Therefore, before Li Yuangu left, that was why he had all kinds of requests from Li Yuangu. He had fulfilled all of them, and had even promised Li Yuangu that if Li Yuangu won, he would return. There must be a reward!

After the disappointment, they had high expectations. And there would be great disappointment because the Emperor had been looking forward to Li Yuangu too much. He was looking forward to ___'s return with a great victory. So... Now that he knew that his opponent had been defeated, that was why he was so furious. Luckily, Li Yuangu didn't escape. Otherwise, he might have died even more tragically. It wasn't like what he thought, it was just a few words of scolding.

The reason why the Great Lu Dynasty Emperor attached so much importance to this war... When he first met these emissaries, he had been put in a difficult position by them. Therefore... He really wanted to teach the other party a lesson, and the best way to teach the other party a lesson... He would naturally defeat his opponent on the battlefield. If that was the case... The next time he saw those people, he would be able to speak tough. He would regain the face he had lost earlier.

At the same time, the other party also wanted to marry their Great Lu Dynasty's princess. This was also something that the Emperor was unwilling to do. After all, currently, Princess Qi was the only one who fulfilled this condition in the Great Lu Dynasty. And the Emperor's love for Princess Qi had even exceeded his love for his sons and daughters. Naturally, he was unwilling to see Princess Qi marry into that kind of place.

So, he urgently needed a victory right now. There was only this way. They had to win the initiative at the negotiation table to avoid marrying Princess Qi. Even in the later battles, they would still lose more and win less. That was fine as long as they could win this time. It would allow the negotiations to develop in a direction that was beneficial to them, allowing them to avoid agreeing to too many humiliating terms. They would win a few years of peaceful development time.

And now, all of this had been messed up by Li Yuangu. It was imaginable how much the Emperor hated him now.

"Your Majesty, please calm down!" All the officials said in unison.

"Calm down, how can I not be angry? This damn trash, I shouldn't have trusted him before!" The emperor said.

Although he said so, the king still forced himself to calm down. He knew that what Wu Yan said was right. The matter had already happened. Li Yuangu had already lost the war at the front line. No matter how angry he was, the most important thing right now was... * Hong Long...... *

The people of the Fengjue Country didn't choose to plunder this time. Instead, they chose to attack the city. Clearly, it was different from the usual. This was even worse news for the Great Lu Dynasty.

Although they had fought with the people of the Fengjue Country in the past few years... They had always lost more than they won. However, they had only lost some resources and population. However, their territory hadn't been lost at all. This was mainly because... The people of the Fengjue Country had no intention of attacking the city. At the same time, ， the people of the Great Lu Dynasty were even better at defending the city.

However, all of this had changed this time. The people of the Fengjue Country had actually chosen to attack the city. Furthermore, it had happened overnight. They had taken down a strong city. To the Great Lu Dynasty... It was definitely not an exaggeration to say that it was a bolt out of the blue.

Losing a city was a huge matter. Furthermore, it was also an embarrassing matter. If he could not take it back, he would be nailed to the pillar of shame. In addition, through this incident, it also meant that... It wasn't that the people of the Fengjue Country couldn't attack the city, even though they didn't know how they managed to enter the city. However, it also showed that the people of the Fengjue Country had the ability to attack cities.

This was also the goal of the people of the Fengjue Country. The reason why they chose to attack the city this time was... The reason why they chose to attack the city was because they wanted to tell the people of the Great Lu Dynasty not to attack the city before. It was just that they didn't want to attack, and not because they couldn't attack. If they were angered, they wouldn't mind. The cities of the Great Lu Dynasty were taken down one by one.

This was the most deadly thing. In the past, the people of the Fengjue Country would leave after looting. If they were to occupy the cities now, they would have their own base of development. If the people of the Great Lu Dynasty wanted to chase them away, it would undoubtedly be much more difficult.

This was also the reason why the Emperor of the Great Lu Dynasty was so angry and afraid of Li Yuangu. That was why he was so angry at Li Yuangu that he wished he could shred Li Yuangu into a thousand pieces.

"Wu Aiqing, what do you think? Tell me." The Emperor said to Wu Yan.

At this time, the army of the Fengjue Country had not left yet. They were in the midst of reorganizing and seemed to have the intention of continuing to attack the mainland at any time. This was naturally not what the Emperor wanted to see. Most of their army was at the border. On the contrary, there were fewer in the mainland. Now... The people of the Fengjue Country had broken through the border cities of the 300,000 defending troops. If they continued to attack the mainland... It would be much easier. Wherever the people of the Fengjue Country went, it would mean destruction. Even if they left in the end, the impact would definitely not be small.

Furthermore, they did not have the confidence to drive them back. Even with the three hundred thousand soldiers defending the city, they could not defeat the other party. Furthermore, the number of soldiers in the mainland was very small. That would be even more difficult.

"Your Majesty, this official feels that we need to summon the emissaries of the Fengjue Country now. Show our sincerity in our negotiations. As for the conflict at the border... It was an accident. It was Minister of War, Li Yuangu, who made the decision on his own accord. Although the other party probably wouldn't believe it, at least there was a way out. The reason why they started this war was because they wanted to negotiate with us. However, their conditions weren't met before. So... That was why the war had begun. It was for the sake of being able to be discussed at the negotiation table. Fight for it! More benefits." Wu Yan said.

"That's right." The Emperor also said.

In fact, the Emperor also understood why the people of the Fengjue Country would start this battle. They wanted to show off their strength. They wanted to fight for more benefits. As for the complete defeat of the Great Lu Dynasty... Thinking about it, they hadn't made such preparations yet, and they didn't have the strength to do so either. After all, the Great Lu Dynasty was too big, and there were too few people in the Fengjue Country. If they wanted to take down the Great Lu Dynasty completely, at least for now... That was not realistic.

However, even if he knew what the other party was thinking, the Emperor did not dare to ignore that army. What if they really attacked the mainland like crazy? Even if there was a slight possibility, he did not dare to take the risk.

"It's just that we lost this time, and we lost miserably. I'm afraid we need to give up more benefits during the negotiations. Only then can we quell their anger and make them retreat willingly. " Wu Yan added.

The king frowned. He also understood this point. This was also the reason why he was so angry. This failure... It was not the right time. Besides, he had failed in such a way. Wasn't this telling the people of the Fengjue Country that the Great Lu Dynasty's army was not bearable? If this was the case, how could he be so unyielding at the negotiation table? Such an outcome would only make the people of the Fengjue Country even tougher and more arrogant.

"It's fine to give up some benefits. As long as they withdraw their troops, it will be easy to negotiate. Regarding this negotiation, Wu Aiqing still needs to continue taking responsibility. You are the official that Zhen relies on the most. Don't disappoint Zhen." The emperor said.<ins id="1067137" data-width="308" data-height="298"

At this time, the king had already made concessions in his heart. He also knew that the enemy's army had arrived. Moreover, they had won a great battle. At this moment, without a little blood, the enemy would not be able to retreat at all. Therefore, the price they had to pay this time would not be small.

And the more it was like this, the more hatred the Emperor had for Li Yuangu in his heart. If they hadn't lost the battle and failed to live up to his trust... How could he have fallen into such a dilemma?

"This official receives the decree." Wu Yan cupped his hands and said, "It is my duty to share the burden of His Majesty."

"Yes." The king nodded and said, "If everyone is like Minister Wu and share the burden of me, why would I need to look at the expressions of those Fengjue Countries people?"

"This lowly subject is guilty!" The other officials in the Imperial Reading Room all bowed their heads and pleaded guilty.

Wu Yan was slightly proud. Of course, at this moment, he did not dare to show it. That was asking for trouble, so he put on a straight face. He frowned and said, "Your majesty, the messenger of the Fengjue Country insisted on marriage. If we don't agree... I'm afraid that this negotiation cannot continue. "
