Traveling through Tianlong: Starting from the Zhenlong chess game

Chapter 363 Use the truth to lie and fool him into lameness

The "King of Zhennan" in front of him really came from his own point of view, rather than blindly believing in empty promises.

The credibility of this kind of negotiation is the greatest.

And this is also Zhao Mu's clever move.

The most difficult lie in the world to detect is the truth.

Using the truth to lie to the enemy is the most unpredictable conspiracy.

Now Zhao Mu is very "into the show". He plays the role of King Zhennan very well. He puts himself in Dali's shoes and puts Dali's interests first in every situation.

And Zhao Mu's "half-time popping of champagne" really deceived the Liao envoy. Not only did he not doubt Zhao Mu's sincerity in cooperation now, he was even full of confidence in destroying the Song Dynasty.

"Cun Song?" the Liao envoy murmured.

Zhao Mu said: "That's right! Just save the Song Dynasty! We believe that after the Song Dynasty destroys the Liao Dynasty, the next one will attack us in Dali. The same is true for your country. It is difficult for us not to doubt that after your country destroys the Song Dynasty, it will not regard us as The next goal. Therefore, the strength of Song and Liao will affect the position of Dali. At that time, Liao was strong and Song was weak, so Dali used the method of fraternal alliance with Song. "

After hearing this, the Liao envoy said: "I understand! Of course I understand. Your Majesty is the prince of Dali, and will still be the emperor of Dali in the future. Naturally, you must always put the interests of Dali first."

The Liao envoy was silent when he heard this. After all, there was really no way to guarantee this kind of thing.

Zhao Mu continued: "So, Xiao Wang wants to preserve the Song Dynasty. If the four countries attack the Song Dynasty to acquire land, then our country, Dali, will cooperate with the Liao Dynasty. Taking the land of Liangchuan and Lingnan will not only expand the territory of our Dali Kingdom Territory, you can also get a lot of real benefits, and secondly, you can avoid the humiliation of being a vassal."

"I believe the envoy knows very well that my uncle has no children. The future throne of Dali Kingdom will belong to my father. And my father is the only son like me. After he ascends the throne, I will be the prince. The throne of Dali Kingdom will still be in the future. My. I don’t want to be the king of Dali. What I want to do is the emperor of Dali. This is also my interest in cooperating with Daliao.”

Zhao Mu said: "Your Majesty, please understand. What I mean is that the Song Dynasty can be destroyed in the future, but it cannot be destroyed. After the Song Dynasty is destroyed in the future, the Liao Kingdom can take all the land north of the Yangtze River in the Song Kingdom. And I, Dali, want to Take the land of Bashu and Lingnan south of Jianmen Pass. Of course, Jianmen Pass is the gateway to Bashu, and Jianmen Pass will also belong to our country, Dali!"

"But after the Song Dynasty was destroyed, the Liao Dynasty was strong and the Song Dynasty was weak. If we don't find a way to preserve the Song Dynasty, your Majesty the Emperor might attack us. Even if we don't attack now, who can guarantee what will happen in a few decades or hundreds of years? Will the king of your country attack us?"

"But for the benefit of our country, Dali, and for the long-term peace and stability of the Duan clan of Dali, we need the 'shield' of the Song Dynasty to defend Xixia and Liao in the north. Therefore, I want to preserve the Song Dynasty. I hope that the envoy Adults can understand.”

"As for Guanzhong and Western Sichuan that your country promised to Xixia and Tubo, that is your business and has nothing to do with our country, Dali. However, in order to avoid disputes between us, Dali and Liao, I still suggest that your country honors its promise and cedes the land of Guanzhong to Xixia. In this way, we in Dali will be bordering the barbarians of Xixia Kingdom instead of the powerful Liao Kingdom, which is also safe for us."

"As for the Song Dynasty, they must retain the land east of Kuimen, the Huaihe River, and the land south of the Yangtze River. Just like the Jin Dynasty after Yiguan crossed south. With the 'shield' of the Song Dynasty, our Dali Kingdom will completely fight against your country. The country is at ease. In other words, everyone around us is at ease.”

After Zhao Mu looked at the expression of the Liao envoy, he continued: "That's what happened. If your country agrees with my king's suggestion, then we can sign an alliance now. We, the Dali Kingdom, are willing to participate in the division of the Song Dynasty among the four countries. But if your country doesn't agree, then I, Dali, can only sit on the mountain and watch the fight, and help whoever wins." Finally, Zhao Mu said with a smile, "Haha, Lord Messenger, I am such a practical person. "

Now it was not only the Liao envoy who admired the "King of Zhennan" in front of him. Even Gao Mei, who was sitting next to Zhao Mu, was the same.

Everything Zhao Mu said just now made sense, and Gao Mei also made some calculations in his mind. What he just said was truly for Dali Country. And there is no leakage between a rock and a hard place. There is no way to grasp anything.

Gao Mei really hopes now that Zhao Mu is her husband and that he is really the Zhennan King of Dali. If the Dali Kingdom could have a king like him who was able to move forward and retreat freely, why would the Dali Kingdom have to worry about achieving hegemony?
But looking at Zhao Mu's face, Gao Mei was also a little disappointed.

After all, what is fake is fake. The King of Zhennan of Dali Kingdom, his own husband is Duan Yu, that "coward". Instead of Zhao Mu, who showed his domineering spirit in front of him.

Seeing that the Liao envoy was still silent.

Zhao Mu planned to add fuel to the fire at the end, and continued: "Your Majesty, the envoy, you don't have to think about it for so long. My king's suggestion is also beneficial to your country."

The Liao envoy heard this and said, "Oh? Please give me some advice, Your Majesty!"

Zhao Mu continued: "It's very simple, that is, the Song Kingdom is too big. Even if the four countries join forces, it will be difficult to eat him in one bite. This time, I followed my father to the Song Dynasty, and I also gained a certain understanding of the customs and customs of the Song Kingdom along the way. First of all, the Song Dynasty is very rich, and their officials and gentry have a lot of wealth. Secondly, the Song Dynasty has a large population. Even if the four countries are combined, it is probably not as large as the Han people, so it will be difficult for us to fight. Swallow the Song Dynasty completely."

"And even if your country conquers the entire Song Dynasty, it must divide its troops to defend it. And if the Liao Kingdom uses all its troops and horses to suppress the local Han people, then can Xixia, this wolf cub, give up? I heard that Xixia Because of the surname given by Emperor Li Tang, they have always been coveting the Central Plains for a day or two. If your country sends all its troops to suppress the Han people, it will give them an opportunity. "

"But if your country uses all its troops and horses to defend us, then the Han people in Han Dynasty will not be so peaceful. By then, it is impossible to say how many people will be emperors and how many will be kings. When the Liao Kingdom was founded, Emperor Yelu Yaoguang learned from the past. He conquered Han territory but had no troops to defend it. In the end, he not only gave up the victory, but was also surrounded and killed by the Han people. "

"So the Liao took the land north of the Yangtze and Huaihe River and slowly digested it. I, Dali, took Bashu and assisted the Liao in containing Tubo and Xixia. After the Song Dynasty was weakened, it no longer posed a threat to the Liao, and the Liao could rest easy. We have the weakened Song Dynasty as a shield. This will be good for everyone. If your Majesty informs the emperor of your country, I believe that the emperor of your country will be very interested. "

This time the Liao envoy was completely deceived by Zhao Mu's conspiracy.

He stood up and bowed respectfully to Zhao Mu three times.

Zhao Mu also stood up and said, "Why is this, Lord Messenger?"

The eyes of the Liao envoy were full of admiration and admiration for Zhao Mu. He said: "What King Zhennan said really opened the door for the villain. This will not only benefit the four countries, but also check and balance each other and restrain each other." . It is indeed good for everyone! The prince's words have completely divided the world in a moment. In the eyes of the villain, they are not inferior to Zhuge Wuhou's "Longzhong pair".
