Jindai Mountain is located in the northeast of Songfeng Gang, and the distance between the two places is only seven or eight miles. Standing on the top of the mountain and looking down, on the endless plain, the lonely Songfeng Gang is like a small steamed bun, highlighting in the field of vision.

At this time, Shangguan Xueming was staring at Songfeng Gang silently, not knowing what he was planning. Wu Chang, the former commander of the special combat team standing behind him, opened his mouth and said in a deep voice: "Hmph, speaking of which, this Khitan people are really not powerful, and they can smash such a good situation yesterday, and let the anti-penetrating people escape." ”

The corners of Shangguan Xueming's mouth moved, but he didn't answer, and Fang Jianjun, a special combat team member standing on the other side, continued: "Yes, who would have expected that there were people on the Song Dynasty's side who wanted to sabotage the negotiations. Alas, God is really joking. In fact, as long as neither side sent troops last night, I am afraid that the other side will have a chance to succeed. ”

Wu Chang nodded and looked at Shangguan Xueming: "Boss, what do you want?" ”

Shangguan Xueming pondered for a moment and said lightly: "It seems that this history will continue to advance according to its original appearance after all." Guess what's the people talking about at this point? ”

"What else can we talk about? The Alliance of the Abyss. Fang Jianjun replied.

Wu Chang smiled and teased: "Do you know what the terms of the Lanyuan Alliance are talking about? ”

Fang Jianjun was a little embarrassed: "It seems to be a land reparation or something, it should be another unequal treaty." Captain, when I was in school, the worst grades were history and politics, and I couldn't do rote memorization. ”

Shangguan Xueming smiled slightly when he heard this, turned his head and patiently explained to Fang Jianjun: "Xiaofang, the alliance of the Yuanyuan is really not an unequal treaty. On the contrary, the Song Dynasty exchanged a small price for a huge strategic return, which was a period of peace that lasted for more than 100 years. In history, it was a rare victory for the Han nation. ”

Wu Chang shook his head and said, "I don't care if the Han nation wins or not, the question is whether we can win now?" Boss, are you going to them next? ”

"Of course!" Shangguan Xueming replied: "The task given to us by the teacher is to find out how the female agent named Zheng Luya in the pre-Qin department escaped in a desperate situation. So no matter what, we're going to have to get our hands on that chick. ”

Wu Changdao: "What do you say, how do we do it, no problem." However, at the moment, we have cut off contact with the organization, and we have tried to use the people here to deal with Zhao Liang and Zheng Luya several times, but we have not succeeded, so ...... next."

Shangguan Xueming raised his hand to interrupt Wu Chang's words, thought for a while, and said, "Actually, there is another way, I haven't used it all along. If it really doesn't work, I'll have to ask for support through her. ”

"She? Who is she? Fang Jianjun asked curiously: "What do you mean by the way?" ”

Shangguan Xueming sighed helplessly: "Who else can there be?" Isn't that my self-righteous wife? ”

"You mean Hu Ying?" Wu Chang was taken aback: "Her people are also here?" ”

"Yes. Before I came here, I already knew that her bullshit travel agency had arranged for someone to travel back in time. Shangguan Xueming said: "Originally, I was raided by the Anti-Penetration Bureau and lost three brothers because of the villa, so I thought that I had to rely on my own ability to complete the task against Zheng Luya, so that I could have an explanation for the teacher and the organization." But ......"

He paused for a few seconds, then continued, "But for now, we must get in touch with the organization through Hu Ying, and then we can use the power of the Blocking Dao to carry out further actions. Otherwise, if it drags on like this, let alone arresting Zheng Luya, it will be a question whether the three of us can escape from Zhao Liang's palm. ”

"Not that exaggerated, right?" Fang Jianjun was a little puzzled: "We are currently staying on the side of Liao, no matter how long his hand is, there is nothing to be done." ”

Hearing this, Shangguan Xueming turned his gaze to Songfeng Gang in the distance, and muttered, "I asked you just now, do you know what is being talked about there."

Guess what I think? ”

Wu Chang and Fang Jianjun looked at each other and shook their heads at the same time.

Shangguan Xueming showed an expression of "I knew you would be like this", and said with a smile: "They talked a lot, but there must be one of them, that is, to use the three of us as bargaining chips to conclude the contract, and send them back to Zhao Liang with all kinds of flowers." ”

"Holy! That's very possible! Wu Chang couldn't help but snort softly: "These turtle grandsons of the Liao Kingdom don't treat us as human beings at all, and they can betray Zhao Liang and them at any time!" ”

"That's why I decided to go to Hu Ying's people." Shangguan Xueming showed a helpless and distressed expression for the second time today: "You all know that I have never gotten along with this senior lady, and we have been fighting openly and secretly for many years. But the current situation is stronger than people, if we don't get support from her, although the world is big, there is no place for us to stand. ”

Wu Chang nodded, and then asked, "Is the person arranged by Hu Ying a member of the organization?" Or tourists in general? ”

"It's a tourist. However, Hu Ying will regularly send someone to contact her and take care of her situation here, and as long as we can wait for that special liaison officer, the problem can be solved. ”

Fang Jianjun asked curiously, "When will the liaison come?" ”

Shangguan Xueming shook his head: "I don't know. It's just a matter of chance. Lao Wu, Xiao Fang, we can't go back to the Liao Army Barracks, from now on, you follow me to find the crossing tourist arranged by the travel agency, and secretly lurk beside her. I think half a month at most, at least a day or two, I can wait for a liaison. At that time, we can ask the organization to send reinforcements and equipment through him, and then go back to deal with the anti-penetration bureau. ”

It took less than two days for a major negotiation related to the 100-year national fortunes of the Song and Liao families to begin to bear fruit, which was really something that everyone involved in the discussion and negotiation could not have expected in advance.

After some negotiation between Cao and Yeluning, the scribes of both sides wrote the details of the covenant between the two envoys in Chinese characters and Khitan respectively:

1. The Song Dynasty gave Liao 200,000 horses of silk and 100,000 taels of silver every year, which was called "the capital of the army" and called the "year coin".

2. The Liao army immediately withdrew northward and all withdrew from the borders of the Song Dynasty. Military discipline must be rectified along the way, and no attacks and looting of the local people are allowed, and the Song army must not have any obstruction and interception everywhere.

3. The two sides shall guard their borders along the border prefectures and counties and strictly stop illegal incursions into the borders of the other countries.

4. Neither side shall accept the fugitive from the other side, and the offender who has fled into its territory must be repatriated.

5. The cities and border facilities at the junction of the two sides may be preserved and repaired regularly, but no additional military installations directed at the other side may be added.

6. The two sides shall set up a field at the border to carry out mutual trade, which shall be exempted from taxation on a regular basis.

7. Since then, the two countries of Song and Liao have forever formed a "state of brothers", with Song Zhenzong as a brother and Liao Shengzong as a brother, inheriting from generation to generation, cherishing and supporting, and helping each other.

Cao Yong and Yelu Ning held the manuscript of the covenant in their hands, checked it back and forth several times, and after confirming that it was correct, they each put it away and prepared to go back and submit it to the two monarchs of Song and Liao for review and decision.

Once Song Zhenzong and Empress Dowager Xiao also nodded and agreed, then the two sides could agree on a time to hold a formal covenant ceremony and make a blood alliance.

After all the affairs were put to a halt, the representatives of the two sides once again turned on the mode of politeness, and did not stop praising each other for their wisdom and generosity, and made outstanding and indelible contributions to the peace between the two countries.

After an enthusiastic speech, Cao Yu bid farewell to Yelu Ning, led the Song Dynasty delegation, and set off to return to the city of Lanzhou. Before leaving, Zhao Liang did not forget to tell Prince An again that as soon as he returned, he would detain Shangguan Xueming as soon as possible, and send him back.

Yelu Ning hurriedly agreed, thanked Zhao Liang again, and then also stepped on the horse and returned to the Liao army camp with his subordinates.

Zhao Liang and Xiaoya followed the peace negotiation delegation of the Great Song Dynasty and walked for more than half a day

Kung Fu arrived in the southern city of Lanzhou in the evening. As soon as he arrived at the place, Cao Yu impatiently pulled Zhao Liang to the royal car and ran away, wanting to quickly report the good news to Song Zhenzong.

When the two arrived outside the imperial tent, they were stopped by the attendant at the door. One of the chief eunuchs told them that His Majesty had only begun to eat dinner after a long day, so he asked them to wait outside for a while.

Cao Yu felt quite helpless, so he had to stop stupidly and wait for His Majesty to finish eating.

The old official was also a ghost, and he thought about reporting to the emperor first, maybe he could also get a touch of color, so he didn't have a few idle words, and asked Cao Yu about the results of the negotiations, how much money was promised to the Khitans.

Who is Cao Yong? He is better than a monkey, and when he heard the old eunuch's delicious question, he guessed the little Jiujiu in the other party's heart. Cao used his eyes to roll, neither wanting to offend the other party, nor wanting to let the other party take advantage, so he didn't speak, just stretched out three fingers and gestured in front of the old officer.

Seeing this, the old chamberlain nodded, quietly made an excuse, turned around and walked into the tent.

At this time, Song Zhenzong was holding a bowl and pulling rice into his mouth, and when he saw the personal servant coming in, he looked like he wanted to speak and stopped, and couldn't help but ask curiously: "Hey, what are you doing with this turtle grandson?" ”

The chamberlain was overjoyed when he heard this, and whispered: "Say hello to Long live, Cao Yong, who went to negotiate with the Khitans, has come back, and the negotiation is complete!" ”

Song Zhenzong was stunned when he heard this: "Really? How's it going? How much money did you give to the other party in the end? ”

When he sent a special envoy to the peace talks before, Song Zhenzong had set a bottom line of one million per year for Cao Yu in front of hundreds of civil and military officials, which was also a reasonable range that the current Great Song State Treasury could bear.

However, as soon as Cao Yu went out, he was stopped by Prime Minister Kou Zhun again. Kou Zhun solemnly warned him that although the emperor promised one million, if Cao Yu dared to talk about more than 300,000, he would definitely kill him when he came back!

Therefore, when Cao Yong negotiated with Yelu Ning, he was biting the bottom line of 300,000 yuan, and completely ignored the one million stubble that Song Zhenzong said.

At this time, the chamberlain said that the peace talks had ended, and Song Zhenzong was most worried about the price, so he hurriedly inquired about how much he had promised.

The old officer leaned his head closer and replied mysteriously, "Three million!" ”

Poof——, hearing this number, Song Zhenzong directly sprayed a mouthful of rice on the face of the waiter, and said hurriedly: "No!" No way! It's too expensive! Stand. ”

He picked up the towel on the table, and didn't know whether to wipe his sweat or his mouth, so he ordered repeatedly: "Quick, go and call Cao Yu and Zhao Liang in!" I have something to ask them! ”

The old official in the chamberlain had a face on his face, and he didn't wipe it, and he didn't wipe it, so he was extremely embarrassed and panicked, and hurriedly ran out when he heard the words.

As soon as he saw Cao Yu, the waiter stomped his feet angrily: "This time I can be miserable by you!" Come in, Your Majesty Long Yan is furious, I want you two to look good! ”

Cao Yu didn't know what to do, and couldn't help but look at Zhao Liang curiously, and Zhao Liang said calmly: "It's not a big deal, let's go in and talk about it." ”

Under the guidance of the chamberlain, the two turned the splendid screen, stepped into the tent, and knelt down together to salute Song Zhenzong.

At this time, Song Zhenzong Zhao Heng had already recovered from the shock just now, and was sitting in place stunned.

Seeing Zhao Liang and Cao Yu coming, he pondered for a moment and sighed: "Alas, three million is three million, although it hurts a little, but as long as you can stop the army and stop fighting, it is worth it." ”

"Three million?" Cao Yu couldn't help but be stunned, and asked curiously: "Your Majesty, what three million?" ”

"You still have the face to ask me? Didn't you promise the Khitan three million a year? ”

Cao Liang was puzzled by the emperor's confusion, and he didn't know how to reply for a while, but Zhao Liang already knew it in his heart, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, what Lord Cao has negotiated is not three million, but three hundred thousand." ”
