Chapter 1383: Betrayal must first be peaceful

"It's not okay to just cede Hebei!" Zhao Huan shook his head repeatedly, "It's all the country passed down by our ancestors. How can I cede to the Eastern Bid?"

"Your Majesty..." Geng Nanzhong did not expect that Zhao Huan would still oppose the cemetery when he arrived at the city. He didn't know what to say for a moment.

Zhao Huan seemed to be talking in a low voice, saying in an inauspicious voice: "The Song Dynasty is not my own. There is a Supreme Emperor in Xiangyang, a King of East China Sea in Haizhou, and a King of Jiaozhi in the south... They are all waiting to see my jokes and wait for me to defeat my ancestors' foundation, so they can stand up and turn the tide!

So I am not willing to cede land, Hebei, Hedong, Jingdong East Road, even if I cut Kaifeng Prefecture! But now it is not possible. I have to wait until I take over the King of East China Sea, take over the gold and silver mountains of Xuzhou, and hold the Supreme Emperor of Xiangyang completely in my hand, so that I can cede land and sell the country down-to-earth!

In addition, there are also a group of uneasy soldiers and civilians in Kaifeng Prefecture... They have changed to an emperor!

So, traitors... I must first settle down!"

Not only will the country be settled first when fighting against foreign countries, but the country must be treasoned, the country must be integrated. Otherwise, the Song Dynasty will be divided into three, and Zhao Huan will be a real traitor... There is no need for the Emperor and the King of Donghai to stand up to fight against the traitors, the new army and the people in Kaifeng Prefecture could overthrow the traitor emperor.

Geng Nanzhong already understood what Zhao Huan meant. It was not that the country could not be sold, nor that it could not be sold out, but Zhao Huan had time to settle. It was a prerequisite for selling the country!

In addition, stolen negotiations must be conducted without complete confidentiality!

Otherwise, I would be afraid that Zhao Huan would not be able to handle Zhao Kai and Zhao Ji, and he would become the Supreme Emperor.

He had already felt that Kaifeng Mansion was a little unfavorable...

It is no longer the most virtuous area in the world that supports the rule of the Song Dynasty, but a bottomless abyss that will devour the kings of the Song Dynasty.

Because the city now has a new military academies similar to the Knights Academy, a new university similar to the Hontai Academy, a difficult business class, and a hundred thousand unemployed citizens.

If Zhao Huan knew the history of later generations, he would have found many similar cities in Europe in the 17th, 18th and 19th centuries!

However, even if Zhao Huan did not know the revolutionary storm in later European countries, he could still smell the smell of revolution.

The treacherous prime minister Ji Yi was punished in the street!

The Supreme Emperor Zhao Ji was driven out of Kaifeng Prefecture by the revolutionary masses...

Zhao Huan was quite proud when he ascended the throne at first, but the more he thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong.

Kaifeng Prefecture can overthrow his father, can't he be overthrowed?

"Your Majesty," Geng Nanzhong whispered, "I can act in secret for peace talks. First, how about the Hejian Prefecture Road, Cangzhou Road, and the Zhending Prefecture and Dingzhou of Zhaoyi Army?"

Zhao Huan frowned and said, "They are willing to agree?"

"Or you can add another 3 million yuan..."

Zhao Huan sighed: "Give it 5 million! It's easy to say that money, as long as you get the gold and silver mountains of Xuzhou, you can always deal with it."

"I received the order."

Geng Nanzhong bowed and was about to leave the hall, but Zhao Huan called him.

"Geng Qing, do you think the retro party members are reliable?"

"Your Majesty..." Geng Nanzhong took a breath and shook his head and said, "I only know that gentlemen are not a party!"

Zhao Huan nodded, "The proposition of the retro party is really worthy, but their behavior is no different from that of the Eastern Thieves!"

"I understand."

Zhao Huan also said: "The ancestral system of our dynasty has always been a disturbance of different theories... In the past, it was a reform, and the two retro parties were disrupting each other. Now the reform party has collapsed, who should we restrain the retro party?"

In fact, the Restoration Party did not collapse! Geng Nanzhong thought: The Restoration Party’s strength in the court has collapsed, but their local strength is still very strong, especially in the eight southeastern states...

I thought about it in my heart, but I didn't dare to say it again.

Otherwise, the split of the Song Dynasty would be even more powerful! Not only the officials, the Taishang, the Donghai family, and the Retro and Reform Party were almost in chaos.

"Your Majesty, the only party that can restrain the retro party is the former Taishi Cai." Geng Nanzhong said, "Cai You, Li Bangyan, and Bai Shizhong can be used. In addition, Zhang Bangchang, who is from Tong Guan and Wang Fu's faction, is also available."

There are roughly three forces in the court of Kaifeng Prefecture, including the Retro Party, the Cai Party and the Eunuch Party.

The Retro Party is a group of young and strong civil servants with the six retro gentlemen as the core, and there is also a group of new-style officers on the periphery. The Cai Party is Cai You, Li Bangyan, Bai Shizhong, and either Cai Jing's nephew or officials who once depended on Cai Jing. The Eunuch Party is a group of people led by Tong Guan and Wang Fu. Among them, Tong Guan is an eunuch, Wang Fu and Zhang Bangchang are just closer to Tong Guan and quote each other.

Zhao Huan thoughtfully and said, "Wang Fu, Tong Guan can't be used anymore... Then let Li Bangyan and Bai Shizhong stay in office, and Zhang Bangchang will join the two palaces."

Since the "February Coup", the central personnel changes in the Song Dynasty have been frequent. In addition to Ji Yi's murder, Su Chi, Wang Fu and Yu Shen have been out of Beijing one after another, either expelling or demoting. Four of the six prime ministers have been missing, and now only Li Bangyan is left, and Bai Shizhong is still in charge.

In addition, Cai You changed from the Shuxian to the Taizai because of his merit of establishing the strategy, which made him a big move. He Li also entered the East Prefecture for his merit of supporting him and was ranked as the Prime Minister. After adding Zhang Bangchang, the number of Prime Ministers increased to five, and one person was missing.

"Geng Qing," Zhao Huan said again, "You are my humerus, and the East Mansion should have you. But if there is a great chaos today, the West Mansion needs more people than the East Mansion. So you should continue to serve as the Chief Secretary, and the East Mansion will let you... Geng Qing, please recommend another person."

"Your Majesty, I recommend Yuwen Xuzhong."

"Yuwen Xuzhong?" Zhao Huan thought for a while, "Isn't he a retro gentleman?"

"Your Majesty, there are now two factions in the retro party, and they are in charge of war." Geng Nanzhong said, "He Li, Zhang Jun, Zhao Ding, Chen Dong and Li Guang are all in charge of war, and Yuwen Xuzhong is in charge of peace."

"Okay, let him become the right chief and serve as the Minister of War."

Zhao Huan paused, "The matter of peace talks will be fine for Geng Qing. First, it must be kept confidential and must not let the people of the retro party know about it!

In addition, I will turn around and ask someone to take some money from the palace, and you will ask Zheng Yinian to bring it to Wu Yiyong. That is to say, it is the private property left by Emperor Jiafu (Zhao Yupan) in Kaifeng Prefecture."

...

When Zhao Huan and Geng Nanzhong discussed traitoring the country, Wu Yiyong, as the buyer, had already entered Chenliu County.

The battle to attack Chenliu County was not considered a battle at all. Because there was no decent army in Chenliu County, only a group of wing soldiers were stationed. The wing soldiers of the Song Dynasty were not real troops, but just security police and other forces that maintained local public security. They were not the opponents of Wu Yiyong's 27,000 elite troops.

So as soon as the army arrived, it dispersed. When Wuyi's brave soldiers arrived, Chenliu County had long been an unguarded city. Wuyi's brave army still swaggered into the city under the welcome of Chenliu gentry and people.

The day after arriving in Chenliu, Zheng Yinian arrived with Geng Nanzhong's handwritten letter and a large amount of property.

"Are these the personal property of the Emperor's sister?" Wu Yiyong looked at the list of property and just shook his head, "My brother-in-law is bribing me... Our Republican Army has its own military discipline!"

The Republican Army had very strict regulations on the distribution of seized materials.

Among them, food, artillery, vehicles, military consumables (such as gunpowder, arrowheads), ships, etc. are all subject to public orders. Weapons, armor and horses are disposed of as appropriate. If they are not required to be used in military operations, they can be auctioned publicly in the army, and the proceeds will be divided by the entire army.

The seized currencies and monetary property such as gold, silver, copper coins, bank vouchers, silk and other currencies will be divided by the soldiers in the army according to a certain level and size of the merit.

Antiques, calligraphy, paintings, artworks, large bronze ware and other property will be auctioned in the army, and the proceeds will be divided by the soldiers.

If the gifts given by enemy personnel (occupied areas) are not given to the Republican government, if they exceed a certain amount, they must be disposed of as spoils.

If given to someone explicitly, someone can take up 20% of his value...

In short, the various regulations and military laws of the Republic of China were formulated very carefully and meticulously. There were judges in the army who could provide legal consultation at any time. Now the head of the Great Zhou Republic was originally a legal officer, and various laws and regulations were naturally very complete.

"The Governor was joking," Zheng Yinian smiled all over his face, "The official family and you are a family. In the future, the Northern Zhou and Southern Song Dynasty will be brothers of each other, how great it is!"

"Good, okay," Wu Yiyong smiled, "But what is the division method of the Northern Zhou and Southern Song dynasties? The Huai River is the boundary?"

"This is not possible," Zheng Yinian smiled. "Now the official family is also being baked on the fire. If you really want to divide the world equally, I am afraid that Kaifeng Prefecture will not be able to leave."

"What?" Wu Yiyong asked, "Who dares to rebel?"

"Why didn't there?" Zheng Yinian smiled bitterly, "Didn't the retro party just rebelled? The Dazai of the dynasty was killed, so what else can't be done?"

"What do the retro party want to do?" Wu Yiyong asked again.

"Of course it's retro!" Zheng Yinian said, "It's said it was the Shizhou, but in fact, the way it was still to develop the government system of the Sui and Tang dynasties. I heard that Guanlong should be based on Guanlong and grant all the land of Guanlong to the government."

"Oh." Wu Yiyong nodded, "Where is Kaifeng Mansion?"

What he cares most about now is Kaifeng Prefecture!

Other territory has nothing to do with him. As long as he can get the Kaifeng Prefecture, he will have enough political capital to choose the head of state in the future.

"Of course I have to give up!" Zheng Yinian said, "No matter whether the retro party or the official family dares to stay in Kaifeng Prefecture. But they are not willing to bear the charge of abandoning the city!"

"So that's it." Wu Yiyong nodded, "Where does the official family want to cede?"

"Additional 5 million yuan in annual monies are added to Hejianfu Road, Cangzhou Road and Zhaoyi Army Zhendingfu and Dingzhou."

Hearing this number, Wu Yiyong smiled, "Does my brother-in-law want to have a peace talk? Changqing, go back and tell him that now you have cedeed Hebei, Jingdong East Road, Bingdai Road and Taiyuan Prefecture in Hedong, and then hand over Jingji Road to me, maybe you can still make peace. When millions of soldiers gather in the vast circumference, there is nothing to talk about.

My third brother wants to be in harmony with the world!”
