…

More than a month later, the golden envoy came again.

During this period, Zhao Haiping was not idle either. He sent out the elite Zhaoyi Army from Daliang, Damingfu and other places that were originally the capital of the Qi Dynasty, and attacked Xiangzhou, Xingzhou, Hejian and other places.

A few more moderate victories were achieved.

This is called using war to promote peace and putting pressure on the Jin people.

This great victory did not even use the main force of the Zhaoyi Army. It only relied on a partial division of 30,000 to 40,000 people plus tens of thousands of rebels in these places to achieve quite impressive results.

As a result, the Jin people finally recognized the reality and no longer had illusions.

The Jin envoy came again and made major concessions. All areas south of Taiyuan were ceded to Zhaoyi's army.

At this time, only a few areas such as Taiyuan Prefecture and Zhending Prefecture were left compared to the largest territory when the Qi Dynasty was restored.

Regarding this result, although Zhao Haiping is still tough on the surface, he has actually achieved the expected result in his heart.

After all, the Jin people are not cowards of the Qi Dynasty. It is almost impossible for them to spit out Taiyuan City so willingly.

Taiyuan is a fortified city with a dangerous terrain. The Jin army besieged it for several months before conquering it.

The Jin people did not have large siege equipment, and neither did the Zhaoyi army.

Therefore, this is exactly the opposite of the situation during the Jingping period: the Jin people could not capture the fortified city, but they would win every battle in the field. At this time, the Zhaoyi Army also won every battle in the field, but if they wanted to conquer a city like Taiyuan

, but it is also difficult.

The top brass of the Jin people are basically generals who know military skills. It is really unrealistic for them to cede Taiyuan City just like this.

Do you want to continue the fight? It is unlikely that the Zhaoyi Army will really capture Taiyuan in the short term. At most, it will capture the surrounding areas of Taiyuan. But this will not only take a long time, but also affect the rest and recuperation of the Zhaoyi Army.

Therefore, Zhao Haiping decided to give it up as soon as possible.

Although Taiyuan could not be obtained in this peace negotiation, the places he originally proposed have basically been obtained.

The area actually controlled by the Zhaoyi Army was bounded by the Huaihe River and Dashan Pass in the south and Taiyuan in the north. It basically included more than one-third of the original territory of the Qi Dynasty.

After a year or two, after digesting the Northland, the Zhaoyi Army's strength has greatly improved, and then they will take back Taiyuan, Zhending Mansion and Yanyun together.

After all, aren't things like peace talks meant to be torn up?

Zhao Haiping had a gloomy face and finally nodded: "Hmph, you Jin people are really good at planning. You must hold the important town of Taiyuan in your hands no matter what...

"Okay, I can leave Taiyuan for the time being, but I have to add additional conditions."

Ambassador Jin hurriedly said: "General Han, please speak."

Zhao Haiping gave him a cold look: "I want... the Second Saint!"

As soon as these words came out, Jin Shi was startled.

Two Saints?

Aren't those the two emperors Qi Huizong and Qi Yingzong?

This request was indeed something Jin Shi did not expect.

Because in the eyes of the Jin people, although General Han Fuyue has been shouting "Go straight to Huanglong and welcome back the Second Saint", this is just a political slogan at most. Compared with actually regaining the Qi Dynasty's territory and welcoming back the Second Saint,

Saint's priority is relatively low.

As for Qi Gaozong, he even shouted to welcome back the Second Saint, but in fact he wished that the Second Saint would die in Huanglong Mansion as soon as possible.

But now, General Han no longer insists on his proposition for Taiyuan, but wants the Second Saint?

What use does he need from these two stupid emperors?

The Jin envoy did not dare to ask any more questions, so he hurriedly resigned and went back to report to the senior officials of the Jin Dynasty.
