Chapter 641: Bohai Alliance

At the beginning of July of the first year of Zhiping, Xiao Hui, the privy envoy of the Northern Mansion of Liao, went to Bianjing, the capital of the Song Empire, to meet the Great Demon King with the mentality of being cold and cold.

I thought I would be sneered at, but no, the demeanor of the big demon king in this period is still the same, but it is more restrained.

"Xiao Xiang, please take a seat." After Wang Yan ordered the tea, he came down and accompanied him to the guest seat.

Xiao Hui took a sip of tea and said with emotion, "Since we met in Beijing that year, after a few years, the demeanor of the Privy Council is still the same, and my old Xiao is not only a general of the defeated army, but also a lot older, and the more powerless I feel." ”

"Xiao Xiang is polite." Wang Yan said.

Xiao Hui stopped drinking tea, and said simply, "Mingren won't say dark words, it's not that I, Lao Xiao, am afraid of death, but you know that I also know that the war criminal trial can be carried out, but it must not be me." Because my Liao State has not yet been officially defeated. ”

Wang Yan nodded slightly, motioning for him to continue.

In this regard, Lao Xiao said, "Recycling their respective detours, the final bottom line is that the Liao State will not admit defeat, and there is no surrender." An armistice can only be signed, not a surrender. At the same time, we acquiesced in the results of the wars between Western Xia, Goryeo, and Cochin. They were the defeated country, and the Song country was the victorious country. But what they did about their turtle sons really has nothing to do with our Liao State, our Liao State sent troops in response to the attack on Suzhou Port that year, and there was a dispute between us, and those bad guys were the ones who invaded the Song State while they were taking advantage of the fire. So I think that they should be punished, but it is not my business. ”

The Great Demon King was powerless to complain, pinching the corners of his eyes and signaling him to continue.

Xiao Hui said, "In this regard, as a result of the partial defeat in the Battle of the North and South, the Liao State can hand over the area south of the Great Wall that has been actually occupied by you, and will also peacefully hand over Laizhou, Jinzhou, Chenzhou, Suzhou, Kaizhou and other areas. This is the final bottom line of the Liao State, if the Song State is not satisfied, you will hang me now, and then it will be a national decisive battle between the two sides. ”

Da Yan thought for a while and said, "Old Xiao, you are really obscene enough, you are tantamount to selling all the Western Xia Goryeo people." Let them become the defeated countries to bear the blame, let me judge their war criminals, and feel that you and I have become allies to harvest them together? ”

Xiao Hui's face was slightly red, but he shrugged his shoulders and said, "The landlord's family has no food, so I can't take care of it." Western Xia their strength is still there, and it is not so easy to surrender. If you are not afraid of pulling hatred, they are not my Da Liao, and they do not have the depth of Da Liao, you can enter the army and kill them until they surrender. But my guess is that you're going to have a lot of political pressure. Therefore, if you agree to my conditions and admit that the Liao State was not defeated, then our Liao State will cooperate with you and put pressure on the Western Xia to force it to surrender and bear the responsibility for the defeat. ”

"When I think about it, it's so obscene." The Great Demon King began to touch his chin and think about it.

Lao Xiao said again, "Gao Li is dizzy from being blown up by you, but they are not without the ability to fight back, and they also have to wait for the movement of our Great Liao Kingdom." If you don't let the Liao State go ashore, the Liao State will resist to the death, and you don't have a land entrance, landing in Goryeo will be a big price. If you accept the conditions, my Liao State will not ask, and after ceding Laizhou, Jinzhou, Chenzhou, Suzhou, Kaizhou and other places, it will undoubtedly accelerate the establishment of your Great Song Dynasty hegemony, and at that time they will see that our Liao State is strategically shrinking, you only need to drive the army to the Yalu River, and they will surrender at little cost. The situation is like this, whether to fight or to weigh the situation. ”

The conditions given by Lao Xiao are not the bottom line of the Great Demon King, but they are relatively close, except for the five states of appeal, including Nanjing Dao and Datong Mansion, which have been occupied by the Song army, they are basically most of Yanyun's land.

Moreover, if the Liao State gives up politically, after the peaceful settlement, it is equivalent to a tacit surrender, then the occupied area is rooted by the Han people, and there will be basically no major resistance, and effective occupation will be established soon.

At this point, the main body of the strategic purpose envisioned by the Great Demon King has basically been achieved.

On the surface, it is a bit unpleasant not to list Liao as a defeated country. This is because there are not enough dead people, and when he dies to a certain number, of course, he will be defeated, but unfortunately this may not be the interests of the Great Song Dynasty, once he decides to fight, he will not lose, but Yanyun's war is together, and it is difficult to control how many Han people are killed and injured.

After all, most of the Yanyun area was obtained, and there was an entrance from the army to the Yalu River, so there would be no more bloodshed, and Goryeo would be close to a state of rest.

The reason why the Goryeo people were slow to announce their surrender was because they were the first to declare war on the Song, and they felt that there was no way out. When the land entrance was still blocked by the Liao forces, they had a fluke mentality and thought that the Liao would counterattack.

If you really see the strategy of the Liao State shrink and sell your teammates, it is the last straw for the psychological collapse of the zombie army, and if Goryeo collapses, then you don't even need to fight, you can use negotiations to establish the defeat of the Western Xia, and let them disarm and accept the Song garrison and verification.

After hesitating for a long time, based on Wang Gongchen's old fox's rhetoric back then, Da Yan made the most important decision in this life and left something for future generations to do.

Now how much land you get in Yanyun is only on paper, there is no strategic difference between the thirteen states and the sixteen states, as long as there is the Great Wall, the mouth of the Yellow River, and the Yalu River, it is the strategic score of the main body.

All of them are symbols that prove that the Great Song Dynasty won the world war and established hegemony. Under these conditions, even if Lao Xiao gives sixteen states, Wang Yan will only accept fifteen states. The special thing is to avoid the "prince title" that has no gold content and pulls hatred.

In the Great Song Dynasty, for the group of scholars, the title of prince is meaningless, on the contrary, it is the existence of hatred. It is easy to be covered by the title of the prince to cover the aura of the grandmaster and champion of the school of the Great Bird. That's not worth the cost.

Based on these, the Great Demon King and Lao Xiao basically reached a consensus, but at the last moment, the Great Demon King added, "Those damned war criminals of the Jurchens, you Liao Guo personally tied them up and handed them over to Bianjing and handed them over to me, this is one of the conditions." It was also my promise to the people of Kyushu before the start of the World War. ”

Xiao Hui smiled and said, "I don't need you to say that I want to do this, I can't get used to those turtle sons for a long time, as long as I don't judge the descendants of the Great Liao Kingdom, I don't care who you judge." ”

Thus began a new page in world politics.

In the world war, with the contraction of Liao's strategy, the Allied forces were sold to collect the Jurchens and Western Xia war criminals, and the Liao State was responsible for arresting Bianjing, and in order to give the Liao State some superficial face, the war criminals had a place in the Liao State.

It's very helpless that this is politics, the boss and the second are fighting, and the worst is the little brother around.

There were a total of seven seats in the Yamen for the trial of war criminals, three in the Song State, two in the Liao State, one in Japan, one in Dali, and one in Qingtang. Returning to the partridge...... They are relatives of the Liao State, and they have a legion to participate in the Northeast War, and they were sold by the Liao State afterwards, so they must be the objects of trial. These are the initial intentions.

In addition, the Song-Liao agreement cannot be signed now, and it will be signed on the Song battleships in the Bohai Sea half a month later, with the participation of the few remaining warships of the Liao navy.

This is the bottom line of the Liao State, because they do not admit defeat, and it is impossible to be in the capital of the Song State just by signing a ceasefire agreement. Only the surrender agreement will be in the capital of the Song Kingdom.

The so-called ceasefire agreement politically means that no one is a good person and no one is a bad person, and the results have not yet been decided. Theoretically, it was necessary to sign on the front lines of both sides, but the frontline areas were more variable, and the big demon king who put safety first moved to the high seas to sign.

In this way, it can be regarded as the presence of the Liao Navy, which can be regarded as the "front line". But it was absolutely safe, and it was controlled by the Royal Navy of the Song Kingdom.

On July 29, the Song and Liao countries signed a document on the battleship "Han Qi" of the Great Song Dynasty Royal Navy in the Bohai Sea, announcing that after Shi Jingjiao, the land and people of Yanyun had once again returned to the embrace of the Han family in the Southern Dynasties.

The name of the battleship is not based on the name of the place, but after the person who was the prime minister of the Great Song Dynasty. Of course, the Great Demon King is an exception, and the "Demon King" is used to name strategic bombers.

The results obtained by the Great Demon King did not follow the wishes of many people. In addition to the lack of land, the development rights of the rich minerals of Liaoguo are not negotiated.

This is because the Great Demon King doesn't want to be delayed, and the sooner he hands over power, the better. Zhao Zongshi's health is not good, it is not a matter of letting him suffer from gains and losses, and his mood goes up and down, it is cruel to him.

In terms of mineral development in Liao, it was the Great Demon King who wanted to leave something for Zhao Zongshi to do, so that he could have a sense of existence.

This does not need to join the negotiation agreement, it must be a matter of course, not only did the hegemony of the Liao State lose, but it was also basically dismembered by the Great Demon King. At a certain time, if they don't want to be a resource exporter, then they can only eat people through civil strife, and without Yanyun and hegemonic dividends, the grasslands of Liao can no longer supply the materials they need for the size of their population, and selling resources to large industrial countries in exchange for survival materials is the only way out.

This is an inevitable law, and it is a matter of course, and Zhao Zongshi will do it within his limited term as emperor. There is no suspense.

After the Liao State was conquered, there was no suspense about the surrender of Goryeo and the surrender of Western Xia, and the disarming of the two defeated countries and the garrison, and these great demon kings were busy wrapping up......

In August of the first year of Zhiping, this is the accumulation of midsummer fruits.

The Great Liao State officially began the so-called strategic contraction, and its remaining troops, officials, etc., were fully evacuated from the Yanyun area listed in the agreement. At the same time, cooperate with the Song army and Song officials to transfer the jurisdiction of the Yanyun regime.

This is the Bohai Alliance!

In the spirit of the Bohai Alliance, the Song and Liao countries are still called the Northern and Southern Dynasties and are still allies. In the spirit of fairness and justice among allies, the agreement on the coins of the Yuan Yuan was abolished, and the territorial disputes during and after the Yuan period were abolished. The relevant areas listed in the peace settlement agreement of the Liao State were given to the Great Song Dynasty. And actively carry out comprehensive trade.

In addition to Laizhou, Jinzhou, Chenzhou, Suzhou, Kaizhou and other regions, the Song and Liao sides redrew the Great Wall as the national boundary based on the principles of friendship, justice, fairness, mutual benefit and frankness. Datong Prefecture, Fengshengzhou, Nanjing Dao and other areas were the territory of the Great Song Dynasty of the Southern Dynasties.

However, Dadingfu, an important town that had been occupied by the Song army, was still returned to the Liao State.
