Datang New Order

Li Shumo completely entered the role, and he entered the state so fast that even he couldn't think of it. Before [.guanm.] came, he still felt a little embarrassed, but under Gao Mingbo's unceremonious rhetoric, he was soon encouraged and stood his ground.The barbarian in the grassland has always followed the custom of respecting the strong. As the strong side, he feels very good about himself.

Seeing that An Duanquan and others were talking nonsense, and Gao Mingbo was speaking righteously, and the two sides were in a stalemate all afternoon, Li Shumo began to despise his former compatriots from the bottom of his heart.However, as an envoy, he had been instructed before coming to play the red-faced role, so he didn't intervene during the argument, but just smiled, and when the conversation was stiff, he intervened at the right time to ease the atmosphere between the two parties.

"Everyone take a break and feel a little tired. Let me treat Brother An Duanquan and the elders to drink two bowls." Li Shaomo suggested.He was the envoy, and his proposal was an order to suspend the negotiation, so the wine, water and cooked meat were put on the table, An Duanquan and several elders of Wu Kai immediately raised their eyebrows with joy, and surrounded them in a hurry.Gao Mingbo went out of the camp with several officers from Yingzhou, leaving only Li Shaomo to drink with him.

After drinking a few glasses of wine and eating a few pieces of cooked meat, the atmosphere immediately eased a lot. Li Shumo persuaded him graciously, and immediately won the extreme favor of An Duanquan and others. Compared with the aggressive Deputy Ambassador Gao, this Li Zhengshi couldn't be more amiable.Because they are both Khitan people and they knew each other well in the past, An Duanquan couldn't help getting closer to Li Shaomo.

"That senior deputy envoy is really deceiving people too much, and his words are too arrogant. How can there be a trace of sincerity in peace talks?" An Duanquan stuffed a piece of meat into his mouth, and complained angrily while chewing. He immediately had an idea, and adjusted a sentence: "I don't even give brother Wuli face, I really don't know who is the right one."

An Duan is not an idiot at all, he understands that the other party is in an absolute advantage at the moment, and it is impossible to have a good result if the talks continue like this, so he wants to use this to stir up the discord between the other party's envoy and deputy envoy, and see if he can take advantage of it. Some cheap.

An Duanquan didn't expect his provocative effect to be so good. Seeing Li Shaomo drink a few bowls of wine, his mind seemed to be a little confused, and he was really tricked: "Oh, I am a surrender, how dare I compare with Gao Fushi? , I just want to be able to protect myself, and I can’t compare with others. I have a bright future. By the way, I will be called Slack Mo in the future. Well, General Li chose a nickname for me. Brother An Duanquan can also call me 'Yu Chun' in the future .”

An Duanquan hurriedly said: "If you don't dislike it, I will call you Brother Yuchun from now on. By the way, Brother Yuchun can't belittle yourself. You are General Li's adoptive son, and you are a hundred times closer than that Deputy Senior Envoy. You should be here. The caller is the one, what is that surnamed Gao!"

Li Shumo smiled wryly, looked out of the camp, and whispered: "Vice Envoy Gao is a member of Commander Zhou. I'm afraid you don't know that Commander Zhou doesn't want to engage in such troublesome peace talks. He wants to fight and gain more military merits." .For the sake of everyone being from Khitan, let me reveal a little secret, but don’t let it out.”

An Duanquan was overjoyed, and quickly put his head in the past, only to hear Li Shumo whisper: "Commander Zhou is making a plan to destroy the reinforcements you sent under the Huaiyuan Army City... You can do it yourself. By the way, don't say I said it, or I would have been killed by you!"

An Duanquan saw that the other party even disclosed such an important matter to himself, he couldn't help but secretly rejoiced, and quickly swore that he would never betray his "good brother".

Li Shumo said: "So, your reinforcements should be steady quickly, and don't bump into them rashly. I am not a brother, I will increase the prestige of the Yingzhou Army and destroy my own spirit. Today's Yingzhou Army is not easy to deal with. , hard to chew!"

How could An Duanquan have any reinforcements? It was all just verbal yelling. Hearing Li Shumo talking about this matter, he couldn't help but look a little unnatural, but Li Shumo saw it and asked: "Brother An Duanquan seems to have What's so embarrassing? Let me hear it. They are all Khitan blood, and they are all descendants of the ancestor god of Qingniu Baima. If there is anything I can take care of, I will definitely not refuse. Although I have a special status, I am still a mission As an envoy, you must take care of one or two as much as you can.” <…,

An Duanquan's heart moved, he stared into Li Shumo's eyes, thought about it several times in his heart, and finally decided to give it a go.Although Wuli is now from Yingzhou, judging from the performance of contact today, he is more biased towards Khitan people. He decided to make good use of this Khitan who has entered the high-level camp of Yingzhou, maybe he can really be his own The brothers compete for the position and get unexpected help.

At that moment, An Duanquan pulled Li Shumo aside, told the story of his brother, A Baoji and others in a low voice, and finally said: "Brother Yuchun, in this way, Huaiyuan Army City can't come for reinforcements, but Wu We have to keep the Kuibu, otherwise no tribe on the grassland will support our brothers anymore. If Brother Yuchun can try to save as much energy as possible for the Wukaibu, we brothers will not dare to forget each other, Yuchun It’s all right for you brother to live well in the Yingzhou Army. If... If you plan to stand on your own in the future, my brothers will definitely divide the tribe and property for you, so that your product department can be restored! If Brother Yuchun can trust me, I will Willing to form an alliance with you! I wonder what Brother Yuchun wants?"

Li Shumo secretly said: "I believe you have seen a ghost." He has experienced huge setbacks for more than a year, and he has long understood the truth that it is better to ask for others than to ask for himself. If he really ran out from the Yingzhou Army and defected to the opponent, the opponent might not give him a cow or a sheep.But at this moment, he has obtained the insider information he wants to inquire about. He has completed the task assigned by Li Chengzhong. I understand in my heart that as long as Brother An Duanquan does not fail me in the future, I will not fail Brother An Duanquan either."

An Duanquan was a little disappointed, but said in his mouth: "Brother, I didn't think carefully, it's really my fault. Brother Yuchun, don't worry, brother, I will definitely not let you down in the future."

Li Shumo nodded, and immediately promised: "In this case, I will find a way, not only to save Wu Kui for you, but also to help your brothers. Well, I will try my best to discuss with my father and see if I can do it." Help Brother Hua ascend to the throne of Jin."

An Duanquan didn't expect Li Shumo to be so righteous, his face froze, and then he was ecstatic: "What brother Yuchun said...is it true? If you can persuade General Li to help my brother ascend the throne, I will repay you a great favor in the future!"

In fact, the reason why Yingzhou set up a separate camp, sent people to talk face to face, and entertained An Duanquan and others with good wine and meat, was to find out the news inside Khitan. After he figured it out, he didn't have the heart to spend any more time with An Duanquan.He politely sent the other party back to Huaiyuan Military City, and agreed to continue the negotiation five days later. The matter was too serious, and he had to report to Liucheng immediately that all the terms of the peace talks needed to be readjusted by Li Chengzhong.

Regarding the five-day appointment, An Duanquan implored Li Shumo to think of a way to shorten it: "Brother Yuchun, we have already talked about it. To be honest, there is very little food in the city. Can you please?" Hurry up. Five days is too long, can you come up with the regulations tomorrow?"

Li Shumo shook his head: "There are a lot of things that need to be reported to Liucheng. I also need to spend time convincing General Li to fight for better conditions for you brothers. Brother An Duanquan can figure out the distance. Not less. As for the lack of food in the city, it’s easy to deal with, I’ll figure out a way.”

That night, Li Shumo fulfilled his promise with [-] fat sheep, which made An Duanquan and others in the city feel a lot of emotion. They never expected that this young man from the Pinbu, whom no one looked up to in the past, would be so righteous. This timely delivery of charcoal can be said to have come in a timely manner, so that the elders of Pinchang and the nobles finally had a full meal.Li Shumo also won high praise among the elders and nobles of Wu Kai. <…,

After the fifth day, the negotiation restarted, and it was still in the tent that had been negotiated before. This time, the Yingzhou side did not talk nonsense, and directly announced the terms of the peace talks on the Yingzhou side to An Duanquan and others.

In the terms of the peace talks named "Huaiyuan Treaty", the Yingzhou side determined the negotiating parties to be the Yingzhou Army and the Diela Department, and the specific negotiating subjects were Li Chengzhong and the Diela Department Da Yue Shilu.Such a main body can ensure that there will be no other interference in the negotiation. From the perspective of Yingzhou, it can bypass the constraints of Lulong Jiedu Mansion and the possible transformation of the camp behind the mountain. Jin Dejin Khan, who was kidnapped by others, was thrown aside.

The first clause of the condition is to recognize the suzerain status of the Tang Dynasty to the outside of the customs, that is, no matter which tribe of the Khitan belongs to the people of the Tang Dynasty, and recognize the suzerain status of the emperor of the Tang Dynasty.For this clause, Li Chengzhong was the most concerned. He predicted that there might be disputes in the negotiations, and prepared various plans for it, but in the end, the Yingzhou side punched nothing.The Khitan people thought this was a normal thing. As early as they accepted the "Khitan Military Seal" bestowed by the Tang Dynasty, they recognized the suzerain status of the Tang Dynasty and accepted the nominal rule of the Tang Dynasty.

Next is the establishment of brotherhood between Yingzhou and Diela. With Yingzhou as the elder brother and Diela as the younger brother, they have been friendly and coexisted peacefully for generations.In terms of specific implementation, there are three detailed rules, namely business, politics and military.

In terms of commerce and trade, a mutual market is opened in Yan County to exchange their needs. At the same time, Yingzhou can send caravans to freely trade in the area controlled by the Diela Department. In trading activities, if Yingzhou merchants violate the rules and customs of Diela, they must be dealt with by Yingzhou according to law.

Politically, Yingzhou and Diela could set up offices in the core areas where the government of the other party is located, with Liucheng on the side of Yingzhou and Fuyu City on the side of Diela, to communicate and communicate with each other.

In terms of military affairs, the two sides have concluded a "Mutual Defense Treaty." When one of the parties encounters foreign invasion or internal rebellion, it can appeal to the other party for help. When necessary, the other party can intervene and support by force.In order to achieve this goal, a coalition headquarters was established in Huaiyuan Military City, officially named "Huaiyuan Treaty and Yuhou Joint Headquarters". The post of Marquis of Duyu was filled by candidates from Yingzhou.

The above is the original version of the "Treaty of Huaiyuan". Regarding the current issue of the Wukai tribe, it is based on the "Secret Agreement on the Disposal of the Khitan Wukai tribe and the Huaiyuan Military City".The secret agreement stipulates:

About Huaiyuan Military City: The Wukai tribe withdrew from Huaiyuan Military City, and Huaiyuan Military City was placed under the jurisdiction of Yingzhou.

Regarding the Wukai tribe: When the Wukai tribe evacuated, tribal elders, nobles, some clan members and their families were allowed to leave the city, the number of people was limited to [-], and the rest were handed over to Yingzhou as prisoners of war.When evacuating, do not bring property or damage the facilities in the city. All items and facilities in the Huaiyuan Army City belong to the Yingzhou Army's spoils of war.

Compensation: The Diela tribe needs to pay the ransom fee for the evacuated Wukai tribe, regardless of gender, age, fifty guan, totaling 15 guan, paid in one lump sum.After the Wukai tribe withdrew, they needed to raise property to pay for the war death pension and property loss of the Yingzhou Army caused by the invasion of Yingzhou, totaling [-] guan.It can be paid in gold, silver and copper coins, or it can be offset by cattle, sheep, war horses or other goods of the same value.

About the prisoners of war: Yingzhou will unconditionally release the Wukaibu prisoners of war, and select [-] soldiers from among the prisoners to join the "Huaiyuan Treaty and Yuhou Joint Headquarters" and become the first batch of allied troops of the Huaiyuan Treaty. Responsible for the implementation, and the relevant expenses shall be borne by the Joint Headquarters.The Yingzhou and Diela departments need to jointly contribute to meet the capital consumption of the joint headquarters, and the specific contribution ratio is [-]:[-].The remaining prisoners of war will be requisitioned unconditionally for two years, and after two years, they will be properly resettled and treated as ordinary people in Yingzhou.

When Gao Mingbo read the secret agreement, An Duanquan and the others had bitter expressions on their faces.To be continued. (..), your support is my biggest motivation. )
