Chapter 170 Procrastination will make you compromise
Dorgon's meaning is very obvious. We already have an emperor in Manchuria and will have no relationship with you in the Ming Dynasty in the future. It is politically true. Don't try to show off the prestige of the country.
Therefore, after saying this, Dorgon, who was unwilling to be at a disadvantage, calmed down: "For the sake of the two countries, I sent my king to discuss with you and others, but your country sent a useless assistant minister to come to you. Could it be that I don't want to have a peace talk? If so, I can go back now, and we will meet in wars at that time!"
"Prince Rui was so angry. Who did you say you have an emperor? Did Your Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty agree to the edict? You dare to be self-righteous if you are just a group of officials! I am also a third-rank minister after all, and this Doctor Yang also holds the title of fourth-rank. This specification is considered to be worthy of you. Could it be that you still want to have a Grand Secretary?"
Wen Tiren said arrogantly, and Yang Sichang also laughed: "However, Prince Rui is right. We are indeed useless, otherwise we would not have been sent here to reason with a group of people who do not understand education."
Although Dorgon has always been a person who takes weight easily, he was furious under the joint humiliation of Wen Tiren and Yang Sichang.
But just as Dorgon was about to attack, Huang Degong, the general of Jizhou, ran out with the two temporary battalions of imperial guards, and directly surrounded Dorgon and other Tartar envoys.
Huang Degong also pretended to be arrogant and shouted: "What are you doing? Since you come to our Jizhou City to negotiate, you must be in a peace talk. If you dare to cause trouble, don't blame me for being rude!"
As soon as Huang Degong said this, the Imperial Guard immediately raised his gun, as if he was about to attack these Tartars directly.
Seeing this, Dorgon and others were not good at saying anything except snorting, so they had to go into the city first.
Wen Tiren couldn't help but smile and bowed to Huang Degong, while Yang Sichang first came to the city.
Jizhou City is still prosperous, but today the streets are much quieter because of a peace talk.
When both sides arrived at the negotiating table, they didn't hide it. Dorgon first put forward his request that he formed a brotherly country with the Ming Dynasty, and that the Qing Dynasty was his brother and the Ming Dynasty was his younger brother;
Secondly, it should be compared with the previous Song Dynasty's policy towards the Jin Dynasty. The Ming Dynasty should also pay 5 million taels of annual monies to the Qing Dynasty. Trade must be opened. Part of the Liaodong land controlled by Mao Wenlong in Dongjiang Town should be returned to the Qing Dynasty, and the losses should be compensated. Mao Wenlong and Yuan Chonghuan must be removed.
Yang Sichang couldn't help but smile, thinking that Mao Wenlong and Yuan Chonghuan were not harmful to this Manchuria, otherwise Dorgon would not have made it specifically.
At this time, Wen Tiren also put forward his own opinions:
"My Ming Dynasty only recognizes the country of father and son, and does not recognize the country of brothers. If your country really refuses to submit to our Ming Dynasty, you can establish your own country name, but you cannot be called emperor, and you must call your emperor a father. The king of a country cannot be called emperor, but can only be the lord of the country, imitating Li Yu of the Southern Tang Dynasty to Zhao Kuangyin of the Song Dynasty;
And my Ming Dynasty is not the Song Dynasty, and your Qing Dynasty is not the Jin Dynasty, so how can I claim annual tribute? Since you are a son country, you must be filial to your father and continue to pay tribute every year, and it will be better if you have to increase it five times more than in previous years.
Regarding the land in Liaodong, the area controlled by Mao Wenlong and Yuan Chonghuan is the land of my Ming Dynasty, so how can I talk about returning it? When it comes to territory, my Ming Dynasty only promised that the land north of the Liao River would be a place for you to survive, but why did he not return to the peninsula south of Haizhouwei!”
Dorgon did not expect that the Ming court would actually have such a request, which was very different from what Huang Taiji asked.
So, without thinking, he slapped the table and shouted, "No! You are too bullying. More than thirty cities south of Haizhou Guard are the foundations we have built with great effort. If you want to, you will fight back!"
Yang Sichang did not wait for Wen Tiren to react at this time, and then slapped the table: "Don't think that I, Ming Dynasty, dare not, tell me the truth, now my Emperor of Ming Dynasty has recruited more than 200,000 troops, and they are all trained according to the specifications of the Imperial Guards. If you are stubborn and determined to oppose my Ming Dynasty, you must guarantee that within half a year, these more than 200,000 elite troops will not only recover more than 40 cities south of Haizhou Guard, but also recover Shen 0yang, Hetuala and other places!"
"you!"
Dorgon sat back on the chair in a furious manner: "You are so bullying!"
Seeing this, Wen Tiren had to stand up again and said, "Okay, okay, since it's a peace talk, don't be so tense. Since we have all made our own requests, we will start talking one by one. However, seeing this, everyone is not in a good mood today, so they will just wait until tomorrow to talk about the first item, that is, whether the two countries are a brotherly alliance or a father-son country."
After Wen Tiren said this, Yang Sichang left with his sleeves.
Dorgon and others also left the negotiation hall angrily.
A few days later, Zhu Youxiao, who was in the Forbidden City, also received a report from Wen Tiren sent someone to send back quickly. He couldn't help but smile and said, "Very good. This Yang Sichang is really brave and dares to yell directly with Dorgon. This is the prestige of my Ming minister. Wen Tiren is also a hidden needle in a cotton area. This peace talks are not worried about failure. He sent the two to continue to deal with the Tartars. The Tartars are now eager to reach a settlement, and then trade to solve the food shortage problem. We have been dragging it down and forcing him to compromise first."
After hearing this, Xu Xianchun responded and retreated.
On Jizhou, Wen Tiren and Dorgon and others refused to give in, so they really became a stalemate.
The Ming Dynasty was still in a hurry, and Wen Tiren simply sang a concert with the local gentry's poems, without taking the matter of peace talks to heart.
Yang Sichang and Huang Degong and others also went to the military camp for inspection, and seemed to have forgotten that he was here for peace talks this time, not to appease the border soldiers for the court.
Dorgon and the Tartars were also very calm at first. After finally entering the pass in a peaceful manner, they began to consume heavily in Jizhou City. They went to visit the 0th floor of Yaoziqing, and did not mention any of the peace talks.
But after half a month passed, Dorgon couldn't sit still because Huang Taiji had also sent him a letter asking him to reach a peace talk as soon as possible, otherwise the banner people in Manchuria would find it difficult to make a living.
Dorgon had no choice but to ask Huang Degong to call Wen Tiren and Yang Sichang as an intermediary, and prepare to start the peace talks again.
As soon as Wen Tiren came to the negotiating table, he did not sit down and said, "I still said the same thing. Your country's Khan can establish himself as the king of a country, but he must be a country of father and son with my Ming Dynasty. My Ming Dynasty is a father, and your country is the Qing Dynasty. If this cannot be satisfied, then don't talk about it."
Wen Tiren said that he was about to leave, and Yang Sichang also wanted to follow him. Seeing this, Dorgon had to shout: "Please stay, two, the country of father and son is really hard to accept. I, the Qing Dynasty, regards the Ming Dynasty as my brother."
Seeing this, Wen Tiren shook his head, looked at each other with Yang Sichang and smiled and continued to walk out.
Seeing this, Dorgon had to grit his teeth: "The father and son are just father and son, but it is really hard to accept later. Please give in. Otherwise, the Qing Dynasty would rather die with your country than compromise!"
"I can't say that I'm giving in, but we can continue talking, but today I can't. I have made an appointment with Yushi Luo from the previous dynasty to go to Cuiping Mountain. Sorry!"
Wen Tiren said and walked out, and Yang Sichang couldn't help but bow to Dorgon and said, "It's a coincidence that Yang made an appointment with Dr. Xu. I heard that he was the first doctor in Jizhou City. Now Yang is just a little cold and needs to find him."
