Water Margin farming to become powerful

Sun Xin knew that no matter how the Song Dynasty court dealt with it, the consequences of this defeat would be far more than that.

The most important significance of this defeat is that the whole world understands the nature of the Song army's inability to fight. Even the Northern Liao army that defeated Liu Yanqing could not imagine that Liu Yanqing retreated so quickly, and the people of Yanland composed songs to ridicule him.

What's more important is that the Jin people also knew the strength of the Song Army after this battle, and they no longer took the Song Army seriously. If the first time they sent troops to attack Bei Liao and they were defeated, it could still be said that they were not well prepared, then The second time I couldn't explain it.

The ruling group was able to lose a hundred thousand troops twice in less than a month, which was enough to show their weakness.

The attitude of the Jin people towards the Song Dynasty changed almost instantly.

As a bystander, Sun Xin saw very clearly that the Jin people had been planning to invade the Song Dynasty since then.

The apparent change was that they directly abandoned the maritime alliance with the Song Dynasty.

The maritime alliance originally agreed between the Jin and Song states was for Song and Jin to attack the Liao state together and weaken the Liao state at the same time. After that, the Song people wanted to take back the sixteen states of Yanyun that originally belonged to the Han.

And so far, the Song Dynasty has lost 20 troops and has not even taken back a single state capital of Yanyun Sixteen Prefectures. This means that the prefectures and counties that the Song Dynasty originally wanted to attack on its own now have to rely on the Jin people's army to take them. Next, the Jin people sat on the ground and raised the price.

There has been a lot of discussion in the Song Dynasty because of Tong Guan's defeat. Zhao Ji is now eager to interpret the dispatch of troops to Northern Liao into a great victory in order to consolidate his authority. Therefore, even if Tong Guan's defeat was extremely embarrassing, he would have to fight for this. Play every game to find the best results.

So Wang Fu took action, and he begged the Kingdom of Jin to give the land they captured belonging to the Sixteenth Prefecture of Yanyun to the Song Dynasty as previously agreed.

There, the Kingdom of Jin changed its previous rhetoric and began to make various prevarications, demanding that the Song Dynasty pay money before it would give land.

Zhao Ji did not give up, and tried to incite the Han people in Shanxi and other places to revolt. As a result, this guy's influence on the Han people in Shanxi was not as great as that of the Supervisory Committee. Sporadic uprisings occurred near Datong Prefecture in Shanxi, and in the blink of an eye they were overthrown by the Jin people. put out.

The Song Dynasty made this underhanded move not only fail to achieve positive results, but also gave the Jin people an excuse to use it as a threat to demand a higher price from the Song Dynasty.

Wang Fu had no choice but to continue bargaining with Jin Guoren at the negotiation table.

In the end, the Jin Kingdom reluctantly agreed and gave the Song Dynasty fourteen of the sixteen states of Yanyun, Nanjing Road and Xijing Road. Each state required a large amount of silver, and the strategically important Luanzhou Pingzhou and Yingzhou All refused to be returned.

The North China Supervisory Committee was watching this situation nervously, because Zhuozhou, Yizhou and Youzhou on the Nanjing Road were still under the control of the North China base area, but the negotiations between Song and Jin Dynasties were already dividing the sphere of influence here, and the Supervisory Committee base area was not released at all. The way it looks in the eyes.

In the eyes of the Jin Kingdom, it seems that this is really the case. They are just waiting to negotiate a good price with the Song people, and then it seems that they can easily take over the three states.

The price proposed by the Jin people was a sky-high asking price, and it was a city redemption fee of millions of dollars. However, after some hesitation, Zhao Ji actually said that they could negotiate slowly.

Sun Xin asked the North China Supervisory Committee to make full preparations for war, and Deng Fei and others finally understood the danger of the situation here.In August, as the negotiations between the Song and Jin Dynasties came to an end, the Jin people finally decided to attack the North China base of the Supervisory Committee, so they went south from Juyongguan.

At this time, Xiao Qian's troops had less than 1 people left, and he had no intention of fighting with the Jin people anymore. Since he did not trust the Han and Khitan people, he simply fled Dazhou Prefecture with all his troops and returned to The hometown of the Xi tribe, Xiao Qian later proclaimed himself emperor directly in the hometown of the Xi tribe, established a great Xi kingdom, and named himself the Holy Emperor.

As an emperor with only tens of thousands of troops under his command, no one paid attention to him for the time being. Now the conflict has shifted to the Supervisory Council and the Kingdom of Jin.

The Song Dynasty kept an eye on the situation in Xiongzhou and did not dare to take a single step beyond the frontier.

In this regard, the superiors in the entire North China base finally gave up. The Song State had no ability to make progress at all. After two major defeats, the morale of the army from top to bottom had dropped to the bottom. Even the Song Army itself did not believe that it could have a chance to defeat it. For any opponent, this kind of loss of military morale is the most terrifying thing. What is the difference between an army that dares not fight and a waste?
Even Sun Xin, who was far away in Shandong, saw this. The Song Dynasty was completely hopeless.

The Jin people sent troops this time just for the purpose of making money. They fought like a business. Therefore, although they had already arrived in Youzhou, they did not launch an attack for a while. Instead, they sent [-] troops to guard the borders of Youzhou and Supervisory board confrontation.

At the same time, the Jin people's envoy had arrived in Shandong.

The person who came to Shandong was of high status. He was Wanyan Zongjie, the son of Wanyan Aguda.

Sun Xin searched his memory for a long time and found no information about this person. He probably knew that this guy probably didn't make much contribution in history, but he still treated him with courtesy.

The day after Wanyan Zongjie arrived, Sun Xin received him.After Wanyan Zongjie entered Jinan, he seemed quite shocked by the prosperity and enjoyment of Jinan. However, when he saw Sun Xin, his face still showed the same arrogant look he had when seeing Han people.

This guy couldn't speak Chinese, and there was a translator standing next to him who was bending over. As Wanyan Zongjie spoke, the man helped Wanyan Zongjie translate in Chinese with a Liaodong accent.

"Our heavenly soldiers will take back Xijin Mansion and Zhuoyi Prefecture soon. You should give up early to avoid casualties. If we can abandon the three prefectures and return, we will not harass you on the way."

After he said this, Sun Xin had no reaction. Instead, he looked at a young man standing next to him. When Wanyan Zongjie was outstanding, he didn't understand what Sun Xin meant. After a while, he heard the young man coming together. Sun Xin translated Wanyan Zongjie's words in his ear again, and then the two of them realized that Sun Xin had also prepared a Jurchen translation.

Sun Xin simply ignored the words of the translator Wanyan Zongjie brought with him to talk to the leader. If he was misinterpreted, wouldn't he be completely in the dark?He himself has cadres who understand Jurchen dialect, who were specially obtained from the Liao Supervisory Committee.

After hearing that the meanings of the two translations were similar, Sun Xin nodded, then frowned and said to Wanyan Zongjie: "You want to use Yanjing City in exchange for money. I wonder if this money will be divided among our Supervisory Committee?"

Wanyan Zongjie heard this and sneered, "Of course not."

Sun Xin nodded, then spread his hands: "Then why do we retreat without a fight? If we don't fight, everything will be lost. If we fight, we can still defend. If we retreat without a fight, you will get all the benefits, but we will We have not gained anything, but have lost three major state capitals in vain. Doesn’t it mean that we, the Supervisory Committee, are being treated as fools?”

Wanyan Zongjie and his translator were confused by Sun Xin's words. The Jurchen nobles next to Wanyan Zongjie thought about it, and suddenly felt that what Sun Xin said made sense, and they didn't know how to refute it. . (End of chapter)
