Chapter 1481 Gentleman's Agreement

When Yun Zheng arrived in Ganci, he brought a lot of war horses to Xiao Jian'an.

Xiao Jian was naturally very happy about this.

However, when Xiao Jianan learned that the enemy was gathering heavy troops in Gongbu, he immediately became worried.

He originally wanted to ask Yun Zheng for permission to fight and lead his troops to support Gongbu, but Yun Zheng gave him a severe scolding and he had no choice but to go back and continue training.

Although Yun Zheng returned to Ganci, he also sent out a large number of scouts to find out what was happening in Gongbu.

Once the enemy launches a large-scale attack on Gongbu, he can lead his troops to attack again.

A bite here, a bite there!

The enemy was unable to concentrate its forces to attack Gongbu.

By the time the other armies gather around, the war should be coming to an end.

In other words, at this moment, the war is nearing its end.

Let's see how long the enemy can hold out!

Before I knew it, three days had passed.

On this day, when Yun Zheng was lying there thinking about the future development plan of Xiqu, the scout he sent out came to report.

They encountered the Xiqu delegation.

"The Western Canal Mission?"

Miaoyin was surprised, "Did they tell me what they were here for?"

"said."

The scout replied: "The Xiqu delegation is led by Danqu, the new prime minister of Xiqu. However, there are only a dozen people! They said that they were sent by Qinpu to deliver a letter to His Highness, and that Qinpu had decided to surrender..."

surrender?

Miaoyin’s eyes suddenly widened and she looked at Yun Zheng in surprise.

Just like that, they did this and Xiqu surrendered?

This... is a bit unbelievable, right?

She always thought that they and Xiqu would have to fight for a long time over Gongbu!

"Okay, I understand."

Yun Zheng smiled and instructed the scout: "Since they are an envoy, there is no need to make things difficult for them. Let them come!"

The scout received the order and withdrew quickly.

"Do you think Xiqu really surrendered or was he just cheating?"

Miaoyin tilted her head and asked.

"It should be a true surrender!"

Yun Zheng smiled and said, "They besieged Gongbu before just to catch me. Now I am not in Gongbu anymore. What is the point of them going to so much trouble to besiege Gongbu?"

It goes without saying that Xiqu must have paid a huge price to besiege Gongbu.

As they left Gongbu and returned to Ganci, all their previous efforts seemed to be meaningless.

If Chinpu did not want to incur more unnecessary casualties, he should have surrendered.

"If only Chimpu really decided to surrender."

Miaoyin had a bright smile on her face.

"really."

Yun Zheng nodded in agreement, "If Xiqu surrenders earlier, we can go to Xindu earlier to take a look. I don't know how the construction of Xindu is going."

At this point in the war, there really isn't much point in doing so.

The two sides sat down to negotiate, and Chimptiti proposed the conditions for surrender, and he decided which ones he could agree to and which ones he could not.

As long as both parties reach an agreement, we are all one family.

I hope Chinpu has really decided to surrender and is not just pretending to surrender!

The next day, the Xiqu delegation led by Danqu arrived in Ganci.

They called it an diplomatic mission, but in fact it was just Danqu with a dozen guards.

Yun Zheng and Dan Qu had met in Shuobei before.

When they met again this time, the two of them felt different.

"Danqu greets His Majesty!"

Danqu bowed, but his heart was filled with bitterness.

Yun Zheng really ran to Ganci!

He even suspected that Yun Zheng wanted to lure the Xiqu army to attack Ganci.

"No need to be polite."

Yun Zheng smiled, "I heard that King Qinpu has decided to surrender. Is this true?"

"Yes!"

Danqu replied, holding out the letter written by Qinpu, "This is the King's handwritten letter, please have a look, Your Majesty."

Without Yun Zheng's instructions, Lin Ji took the letter and handed it over.

Yun Zheng calmed his mind and quickly opened the letter.

Looking at the contents of the letter, Yun Zheng couldn't help but shake his head and smile.

A gentleman's agreement?

It seems that Qinpu is still unwilling to give in!

That's it!

In that case, I'll make a gentleman's appointment with him!

Yun Zheng raised his head and asked again: "Did King Qinpu ask you to convey other words?"

"No."

Danqu shook his head, "The king said that the prince would only speak to me after reading the letter."

Yunzheng was speechless.

Qinpu really believes in himself!

This makes me feel a little embarrassed.

Yun Zheng thought for a moment and said seriously, "Go back and tell King Chinpu that I will leave for Gongbu tomorrow!"

"I also want to have a gentleman's appointment with King Chimpu!"

"If I lose, all the forces of Daqian will withdraw from Xiqu, and I promise not to march into Xiqu within 20 years!"

Listening to Yun Zheng's words, Danqu couldn't help but feel a little confused.

Gentleman's agreement?

Hasn’t the king decided to surrender?

What is this gentleman's agreement about?

Confused, Danqu asked again: "I wonder what the gentleman's agreement between the king and the prince is about?"

"You haven't read the letter?"

Yun Zheng was surprised.

This letter doesn’t even have a lacquer seal!

Danqu didn’t even watch it?

"No."

Danqu shook his head gently. "This is a letter from King Qinpu to the prince. How can I read it without permission?"

"I see."

Yun Zheng looked at Danqu approvingly and replied, "King Qinpu wants to have a war game with me outside Gongbu City. If he loses, Xiqu will surrender unconditionally! If I lose, I will lead my army to withdraw from Xiqu."

"This……"

Listening to Yun Zheng's words, Dan Qu was a little unresponsive for a moment.

Is this what is called a gentleman's agreement?

Seeing that Danqu didn't seem to understand, Yun Zheng spoke again: "Forget it, you guys take a rest first. I will write a letter to King Qinpu. When you go back, just help me bring it to King Qinpu!"

Yun Zheng said this, and asked Lin Ji to take Dan Qu and the others downstairs to rest and prepare some food for them.

As soon as Danqu and the others left, Miaoyin asked hurriedly: "Are you really going? Aren't you afraid that Qinpu just wants to trick you into going to Gongbu?"

"He can't lie, and there's no need to lie."

Yun Zheng smiled and handed the letter to Miaoyin.

Miaoyin immediately took the letter and read it.

After looking at it for a while, Miaoyin suddenly understood.

Before that, Qinpu would order all troops that had engaged or were about to engage in battle with Daqian to surrender to Daqian.

Qinpu's move has dispelled their worries.

"Isn't Qinpu a bit too bold?"

Miaoyin put down the letter, a little incredulous, "He has asked Xiqu's troops to surrender to us. Even if you lose the war game, doesn't he worry that you won't keep your word?"

"So, this is called a gentleman's agreement!"

Yunzheng smiled.

Qinpu gave him the greatest trust.

Of course, at this time, Qinpu had to trust him.

"If you lose, will you keep your promise?"

Miaoyin asked with interest.

"I won't lose!"

Yun Zheng answered confidently.

Miaoyin was surprised, then she hugged Yun Zheng's neck and said with a smile: "I also believe that my man will not lose!"
