Chapter 796 With such an emperor of the Southern Dynasties, there must be no one less in the negotiation of peace coins!
"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!!"

In Luoyang Imperial City, in the magnificent palace, there were shattering porcelain and hysterical cries.

Xiao Fengxian, who had fallen out of favor more and more recently, fled in panic. Looking at Xiao Wuna who was walking quickly, it was like a drowning man seeing a life-saving straw: "King Lanling, you must persuade Your Majesty!"

Xiao Wuna's face was also ashen, and he immediately scolded loudly: "If you hadn't slandered His Majesty at that time, how could today's disaster... Get lost!!"

Xiao Fengxian's cheek muscles twitched, and he retreated lazily. Before he could leave completely, he heard hurried footsteps from behind, and Emperor Tianzuo actually rushed out: "Teacher save me! Taifu save me!" what!"

Xiao Wuna looked at the terrified Emperor Tianzuo in front of him, his face became even uglier.

He scolded Xiao Fengxian just now, and he was speaking to Yelu Yanxi, who is self-willed. In fact, it was Yelu Yanxi who showed great interest in attacking the Southern Dynasty, and those slanderous officials flocked to agree. Wuna was going to coax Emperor Tianzuo well, so that he would listen to his next rescue method, so that the main force of the Liao army could return home safely.

Unexpectedly, the other party panicked directly, and he was completely different from the self-confident and single-minded husband before.

"You can achieve great things only if you are not arrogant in victory and not discouraged in defeat. This one is just the opposite, but he still wants to conquer in person!"

"If the main force of our army does not continue to go south, but turns back to Yanyun after failing to attack the Daming Mansion, then no matter how brave and invincible Lin Chong is, he can only protect Hebei..."

"Great situation, ruined once!!"

Xiao Wuna sighed in his heart, took a deep breath, helped Yelu Yanxi back into the palace, shouted away the left and right guards, and prevented others from seeing the embarrassment of the Liao Emperor, and then slowly said: "Your Majesty, what is the plan for the present?" , Only by negotiating peace with the Southern Dynasty can we have a chance to turn around!"

Yelu Yanxi's eyes widened: "Negotiate a peace? How to negotiate a peace? Yanyun was captured, whether they sealed the three gates or guarded the Yanmen, our army's retreat has been blocked! Those ships built today, and There is no way to cross the natural danger of the Yangtze River...then no matter how cowardly Zhao Ji is, he will not negotiate peace with us!"

Xiao Wuna said solemnly: "If you only look at the military, although our Liao Kingdom is at a disadvantage, the strength of the army is still complete, and we have captured Luoyang, with sufficient food and grass supplies. Although the Song people captured Yanyun, it was only the first occupation. It's not that there is no possibility of changing hands again..."

"And our army captured Yangzhou yesterday, and now all the craftsmen have entered the shipyard, and Yangzhou and Jinling are only separated by a river, and we can use another strategy of persecution against the Southern Dynasty!"

Yelu Yanxi frowned: "Although that's the case, before I wrote to Zhao Ji, he also promised to bring back the army going north, the two countries stopped the war and returned to peace, but Yanyun was still captured. It can be seen that the people of Song Dynasty were despicable and did not keep their promises. This It's time to beg Xu Tonghe again, there is no hope!"

The two countries fought during the day, and the lives of the people were miserable. At night, the kings of the two countries sent envoys to exchange letters, "begging for peace", what kind of operation is this?
Yes, this was an operation between Zhenzong of the Great Song Dynasty, Empress Dowager Xiao of the Liao Kingdom, and Shengzong of the Liao Kingdom.

For the Liao side, Empress Dowager Xiao and Liao Shengzong went deep alone at that time, taking great dangers, so whenever the battle went wrong, they sent envoys to the Song camp for negotiation.

For Song Ting’s side, they were worried about losing to the Liao people after all, and wanted to leave a way out for themselves. Even if the opponent’s army burned, killed and looted in their own country, they would start a mutual licking mode, and finally it was logical to promote Chanyuan alliance, the two countries became brothers.

Because of the lessons learned from the past, under Xiao Wuna's auspices, the Liao army attacked Bianliang, destroyed Luoyang, burned, killed and looted, and at the same time sent envoys to Jinling for peace talks.

Unsurprisingly, like Zhenzong in the past, Zhao Ji accepted the envoys without hesitation, and also sent envoys to the Liao army camp for negotiations.

And Xiao Wuna's first request was to let Zhao Ji order the township army going north to retreat, and never allow such an act of destroying the friendship between the two countries.

But now and then, let alone the Liao army at that time, no one even Song Ting believed that the township army could really recover Yanyun. In their view, it was more like a strategy to encircle Wei and save Zhao.

Since Emperor Liao was willing to negotiate a peace, it showed that the strategy worked, and there was no need to make a fuss, so most of the officials agreed with Gao Qiu's withdrawal from the army.

As a result, "Wei" was really captured...

Now that the township army has captured Yanyun, even Yelu Yanxi knows that unless Song Ting is really stupid to the extreme, it is impossible to negotiate peace with the Liao army!

Xiao Wuna didn't think so, he analyzed: "Your Majesty, the spies I sent to Jinling came back with a key piece of news. The situation in the Southern Dynasty was in turmoil. Many officials suggested that the former Prime Minister Zhang Dun should return. Preside over the overall situation!"

Compared with the Imperial City Division of the Song Dynasty, which became a decoration, the Liao State attached great importance to espionage work. In order to find out the situation in Jinling, it also sent a large number of spies, but Yelu Yanxi didn't quite understand: "I have heard of this person too. , is indeed a capable minister, but what is the use of the Taifu mentioning Zhang Dun now?"

Xiao Wuna said: "The current emperor of the Southern Dynasty is not a prince, but because the previous official died suddenly and did not leave a will. The queen mother appointed the successor. When this king Duan was selected, the prime minister Zhang Dun said, 'A frivolous king cannot rule the world'!"

Yelu Yanxi said coldly: "The courtiers of the Southern Dynasty are really bold. If it were my Daliao, how could such a courtier allow him to live?"

Xiao Wuna looked at Yelu Yanxi, and continued: "Zhang Dun is a man who knows how to fight, and he even defeated the Xixia army. He has great prestige in the Western Xia army. Those who want him to return to the court are obviously the main battle faction. I hope that the main force of our Liao army will be completely left in Song Dynasty!"

"But once Zhang Dun takes over the military power and defeats our Liao army, the next step will be the turn of the emperor who killed his mother and brother and moved his capital to the south..."

Yelu Yanxi was very clever, and he said it clearly: "The Taifu's meaning is that if Zhang Dun returns to the court and defeats our army, the next step is to abolish Zhao Ji of the Southern Dynasty and choose another Mingjun, so even if Zhao Ji knows that Yan Yun was killed Duo, in order to curb the power of the courtiers, will you be willing to negotiate a peace?"

Xiao Wuna nodded: "That's right, the emperor of the Southern Dynasty would never give a chance to a courtier who clearly opposed him when he made a big mistake. Although he is the king of a country at this time, he will , and betray the interests of the country, not to mention that His Majesty will give the other party a reason that cannot be refused!"

Yelu Yanxi showed a respectful look, and saluted like the former students: "Please give me your advice!"

Xiao Wuna narrowed his eyes slightly when he saw it, he was not happy but surprised, took a deep breath and said: "Your Majesty declared war this time on the grounds that the emperor of the Southern Dynasty killed his mother, and now I have to admit that this matter was spread by spies from the Liao people." The false news that the Empress Dowager of the Southern Dynasties died of natural illness, not the emperor's fault!"

Yelu Yanxi's expression changed dramatically, he had spoken so much before, if he really did that, wouldn't he be slapping himself in the face?
But facing Xiao Wuna's stare, and thinking about the current situation, the anger just appeared between his brows, and then dissipated, he could only grit his teeth and say: "Okay, let's do this, let Zhao Ji be proud!"

Xiao Wuna went on to say: "Let Da Song be the elder brother and Daliao be the younger brother, and the old coins will remain the same..."

Yelu Yanxi continued to frown when she heard the first half of the sentence, but she felt inconceivable when she heard the latter part: "Such peace talks can still have old coins?"

Xiao Wuna said: "It must be there. If we omit the old coins directly, it will only reveal our timidity of longing for peace talks, but we can't be too forceful. The name has to be changed."

"The Chanyuan alliance is a 'helping the army'. It was the younger brother of the Southern Dynasty who honored our elder brother Daliao. Now my Daliao has to suffer in name. Like Xixia, let Song use the 'year gift' In the name of the old coin, the amount of money is still [-] taels per year, and [-] pieces of silk..."

"With such an emperor of the Southern Dynasties, there must be no less than one of the New Year's Coins!"

Yelu Yanxi clicked his tongue, didn't know what to say for a while, and then suddenly thought of the most important thing: "What about the land of Yanyun? It's nothing more than the old coins, we must let Song Ting return them, and return them with white coins." The ditch and the river are the boundaries!"

Xiao Wuna hurriedly said: "No! You must not directly propose to return Yanyun, that will definitely stir up the court and the people, and the emperor of the Southern Dynasty will not be able to subdue the ministers, but it will be detrimental to the peace talks!"

Yelu Yanxi turned pale: "Could it be that the Grand Tutor intends to assign Yanyun to the Southern Dynasty?"

Xiao Wuna said: "Your Majesty is in the covenant, you can request to set up a forum on the border to carry out mutual market trade. If there are thieves and fugitives who cross the border, they must not stay with each other. The cities along the borders of the two dynasties will be as usual, and no city gods will be built..."

"These covenants are all to reduce the vigilance of the Song court. When it comes to the land of Yanyun, it might as well make the officials of the Southern Dynasty think that we want to give up Yanyun, so the other party will be willing to agree..."

"The most critical one is to open Yanmen and let our army return!"

Yelu Yanxi's face immediately showed a ferocious expression: "This plan is very clever. When our army enters Yanmen, are you afraid that we won't be able to take back Yanyun?"

Xiao Wuna nodded: "After the Chanyuan alliance, Song and Liao have a hundred years of peace, but they can also paralyze the Song court and make them think that our Liao country will still abide by the covenant..."

"However, the land of Yanyun is related to the rise and fall of our Daliao, and we must take it back at all costs and by all means! Once our army enters Yanyun, we will immediately tear up the alliance, send troops to seize the city, and wipe out the rural army!"

"Even if they can't be wiped out and let them flee back to Hebei, Song Ting will definitely announce that the township army was defeated and retreated afterwards in order to cover up. The fierce general Lin Chong and the remaining township troops are naturally very resentful, and the lands of Hebei and Shandong are also against Song Ting The resentment is very high, the hearts of the people are against each other, and chaos arises..."

"If Lin Chong rebels, I, Daliao, can help him to separate the Hebei and Shandong provinces, and fight each other with the Song court. If we can arouse more people's indignation, and make the southern dynasty full of wars, we will be unable to take care of ourselves, and we will be even more powerless to go north!"

The King of Lanling finally concluded: "So far, not only can the main force of the Daliao Dynasty retreat, but also stabilize the border without compromising the country's prestige. It is only necessary to wrong your Majesty, and make peace talks with the Southern Dynasty mother-killers. . . . "

"Don't be wronged, don't be wronged! I still have the tolerance to endure humiliation, so what can I do if I let Nanchao think that I have surrendered to Daliao? Wait for another day to repay the humiliation!"

Yelu Yanxi laughed, and once again performed the student's ceremony, and praised sincerely: "Teacher is worthy of being the pillar of our Daliao country. Under such a disadvantage, I can still have such a good national policy. I am so impressed!"

Xiao Wuna was shocked when he saw it, he hurriedly bowed down, kowtowed and said: "Don't dare to do it, this time the peace talks are very difficult, the old minister will go to prepare now, I will ensure that His Majesty will have no worries, and Daliao will have no problems!"

"Teacher should also take care of his body, Zhen and Daliao depend on you!"

Yelu Yanxi hurriedly helped Xiao Wuna up, and watched the teacher retreat all the way with a sincere face, until his body disappeared into the palace.

The smile and admiration on the Emperor Tianzuo's face disappeared little by little, replaced by gnashing of teeth in humiliation and harshness, and then murmured: "This old man, doesn't he want to be the chapter of my Daliao?" Don't you?"

Compared to the chilling voice in the palace, Xiao Wuna walked outside the palace, but also stopped, looked up at the clouds in the sky, and murmured: "After this battle, I am afraid that the old man will die a good death. I hope the gods bless you, the peace talks can proceed smoothly, and my Daliao will not go into decline because of this southward invasion..."
