I'm a marquis in Datang

Yan Jiu made a salute, then turned around and retreated, and after Yan Jiu retreated, Fu Yuzhang said the rest, and told everyone to perform their duties, and then let everyone retreat.

Chapter 1396 Yan Jiu Thoughts

Yan Jiu thought

The army led by Du Qi had already approached Sibi City at the end of November, only more than sixty miles away from Sibi City.Although the weather is getting colder day by day, it doesn't have much impact on Xia Guo's army.A group of soldiers, wearing thick clothes, even in the cold weather, they still have high fighting spirit.

When it was almost noon, the army found an open place to stop and bury pots for cooking.

Du Qi also stopped to rest.

Shangguanyi, Ma Zhou and Guan Zhilan were all beside Du Qi, and the expressions of the three looked quite relaxed.Because this way, they were invincible, and there was nothing they could resist. Even the cities of Baekje did not resist at all, and they all gave up and surrendered directly.

"Report!"

At this moment, soldiers came to Du Qi's side.

The soldier said, "Your Majesty, Yan Jiu, the envoy of Silla Kingdom, has come to see you."

Du Qi ordered: "Bring it here."

The soldier responded and turned around to inform.

Not long after, Yan Jiu came to Du Qi's side. When Yan Jiu saw Du Qi and saw Du Qi's appearance, he was filled with admiration. It is a miracle to build such a huge empire.

Yan Jiu clasped his hands together, bowed at [-] degrees and saluted, solemnly said: "Yan Jiu, envoy of Baekje Kingdom, pays homage to His Majesty the Emperor of Xia."

When Yan Jiu was young, he stayed in the Sui Dynasty.

So I can speak Chinese.

Du Qi heard Yan Jiu's words, looked at Yan Jiu, and said, "Why are you here?"

Yan Jiu said in a deep voice: "Reporting to Emperor Xia, this old man came here this time for the purpose of Baekje's vassalization to the Xia Kingdom. As for the Xia Kingdom, I am willing to be a vassal to the Xia Kingdom and pay tribute every year."

Du Qi said directly: "Do I need your Baekje to be a minister? If it is a minister, I don't have to destroy Goguryeo, let alone destroy Silla. As for Baekje, I won't launch an army crusade. The Xia under my rule The country does not need to be a dependent country, it only needs to belong to the area belonging to the Xia country."

Yan Jiu frowned immediately when he heard the words, with a serious expression on his face.

Because Du Qi directly refused.

Fortunately, Yan Jiu was already prepared in his heart, so he took advantage of the situation and said, "Emperor Xia, if you don't want my Baekje Kingdom to submit to you, that's okay. All of my Baekje Kingdom are willing to submit to Emperor Xia. Willing to drive for Emperor Xia."

Anyway, Baekje couldn't stop it.

Therefore, he directly expressed his willingness to surrender.

Yan Jiu said: "Please don't worry, Emperor Xia, I will return soon, and tell me about Emperor Xia's next time, the Lord of Baekje. At the same time, this old man will facilitate the surrender of Baekje. When Emperor Xia arrives in Sibi City , is the day when Baekje Kingdom surrenders."

Du Qi smiled and said: "This is the best. If you can defeat others without fighting, take Sibi City without a single soldier, and make Fu Yuzhang surrender, I will remember your great contribution."

Yan Jiu suddenly became excited.

He was arranged by Fu Yuzhang at the beginning, and he was extremely worried when he learned that he was coming to sue for peace.But after thinking about it, it's almost

The distance from meeting Du Qi is his opportunity.

Now is the opportunity.

Yan Jiu said again: "Old man, I will definitely live up to Emperor Xia's high hopes."

After speaking, Yan Jiu bid farewell and left.

Shangguanyi said: "Congratulations, Your Majesty, congratulations to Your Majesty, now that we have the internal support of the Baekje Kingdom, it will be easier to break the Baekje Kingdom. This battle is not too difficult for us."

Du Qi said with a smile: "In fact, there is no difficulty in the first place. Even if Fu Yuzhang wants to resist the mere Baekje country, it will be a stubborn resistance. At the current situation, Fu Yuzhang can't hold it."

Shangguanyi nodded.

After the team had lunch, the army set off again, heading towards Sibi City.

When Du Qi's army was getting closer and closer to Sibi City, Yan Jiu had rushed back first.As soon as Yan Jiu returned to Sibi City, he did not go to the palace to have an audience immediately, but arranged for people to summon all the main officials of the court to his residence.

Sha Qianqiu is also impressively listed.

Sha Qianqiu is the leader of Qingliu, but his temperament is quite eager. Seeing that Yan Jiu has been silent for a long time, he said urgently: "Master Yan Jiu, if you have any news, just tell me directly, don't dawdle. We are all waiting now. waiting for your news."

The rest of the people spoke one after another.

One by one kept talking, looking forward to it.

Yan Jiu said in a deep voice: "After seeing Du Qi, the emperor of the Xia Kingdom, the old man expressed the attitude of the king, saying that the Baekje Kingdom is willing to be a vassal to the Xia Kingdom and pay tribute every year. Even, he is willing to make further concessions and give more Many benefits. But the emperor of the state of Xia didn't bother with him at all.

Rejected.Du Qi said that he had already destroyed Goguryeo and Silla, and it was impossible to leave Baekje alone.If you want to accept being a vassal, you don't have to destroy Silla and Goguryeo. "

Sha Qianqiu took advantage of the situation and said, "After Du Qi refused, how did you answer? Did Du Qi propose any plans later?"

Yan Jiu said: "At that time, I directly argued with reason. He said that if Du Qi did not agree with our Baekje Kingdom's surrender, then the entire Baekje Kingdom would definitely fight to the death. Huge damage. I said so, but Du Qi still didn't let go of the slightest bit, and he still insisted on destroying Baekje. Du Qi said that he will never give up if he does not destroy Baekje."

He did it on purpose.

Add drama to yourself.

Originally, he never said these words, but it is impossible for Du Qi to expose his words, so now he is facing Sha Qianqiu and the officials in the court, what he wants to say, he should say, after all, his mouth grows on his body .

When Sha Qianqiu and the others heard this, they sighed.

Everyone is quite nervous.

Sha Qianqiu stroked the gray beard under his chin, and said again: "Lord Yan Jiu, don't make excuses, just tell me the result. Here, how did Du Qi think about it? In the end, how did you think about it."

Everyone agreed again.

Everyone agreed with Sha Qianqiu's words, after all, they were all worried about the destruction of Baekje in this battle.To be precise, what they are worried about is not the destruction of Baekje, but their own safety and future.

The Baekje Kingdom is destroyed, if they can follow the Xia Kingdom, that's the same, anyway, their rights and interests will not be weakened much.But if Baekje is destroyed and they have to die with them, it won't be worth it.

Yan Jiu said in a deep voice: "Facing Du Qi's strength, it is useless for me to argue with reason. So in the end, I agreed with Du Qi's words and said that I am willing to persuade the king to surrender. When Du Qi's army arrives, it will be me The day Baekje surrendered. Du Qi immediately agreed, and said that as long as he can complete the task, he will not hesitate to reward him. So as soon as the old man comes back, I will invite you to discuss the matter and discuss how to deal with this matter."

After hearing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

The focus of their attention is that Du Qi does not hesitate to reward, which means that Du Qi will not kill them all.

This is their chance.

You must know that when Du Qi destroyed Silla and Goguryeo, he killed all the dignitaries of the two countries. Even if there were some people left in Silla and Goguryeo, these people were not considered the real dignitaries of the past.

Now that they have a way out, they feel at ease.
