The Emperor announced a decision that shocked Yeluchun and the ministers of the main battle faction, and he decided to accept the request of the Jin State for peace, and immediately sent envoys to discuss peace matters with the Jin State. As for the letter from the emperor of the Song State, it should be better not to know, because since the Song State is a secret gold thief, it means that they do not dare to turn their faces with Da Liao now, if Da Liao goes to question them face to face, it is equivalent to tearing up the face with Song State, and he will take the initiative to push Song Guo to the side of the gold thief, so he can only pretend not to know and maintain the status quo for the time being.

The Emperor's decision came as a surprise to everyone, and the ministers of the main battle faction were furious, they did not understand why the Emperor had resorted to such a humiliating capitulation strategy when the situation was so clear and imminent.

For the sake of the safety and dignity of Da Liao, they fought with the emperor and wanted to change the emperor's decision, but the emperor was furious, and he roared, "Fight, you only let me fight, but what will I do to fight?" Even our Khitan children know that 'Jurchen soldiers are invincible if they have more than 10,000 soldiers', a year ago, there were only 20,000 people in Aguta's hands, and they defeated 300,000 of us, and now, Aguta has occupied Liaodong, and the army in his hands has soared to 200,000, which of you dares to risk the lives of your whole family to promise me that this battle will be won? If I can't win, what army will I have in my hands to resist the Jin soldiers? What kind of army will be used to quell the rebellion? What kind of army will you take to defend the Song Kingdom?! ”

Unexpectedly, there were really ministers of the main war faction who dared to risk the lives of their whole families to admonish, and the emperor was even more furious, and the ministers who dared to persuade were expelled and dismissed, except for Ye Luchun, who had been silent since the emperor expressed his position, the ministers of the main war faction in the DPRK and China were almost uprooted!

At this point, the emperor issued a final order, "to agree to all the requests of the Jin State, that is, to recognize the status of the Jin State, canonize Aguda as the Great Sage Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, the country name Dajin, and enjoy the treasure of the jade chariot and the jade crown engraved in front of the emperor; Recognize Jin as the brother of Liao, and every time the gold lord is born and on the New Year's Day, Liao must send an envoy to condole; Liao distributed one and a half of the two hundred and fifty thousand taels of silver silk that Song had lost per year to Jin, and ceded Liaodong and Jin. ”

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Ten days later, Ye Luchun returned to the palace of Nanjing, this trip to Beijing did not achieve the expected goal, but caused a great loss of vitality to the main battle faction, and the main battle faction was mainly army generals, which also directly led to many of his cronies in the army were implicated, and many people were dismissed from their posts or even demoted and convicted.

Ye Luchun was in a very bad mood, not just because of his vitality, but more importantly, he felt deep worries about the future of Liao, and the emperor's reaction fully exposed his character of being fierce and inward-looking, mediocre and weak, greedy for life and afraid of death, if the decision-maker of a country is such a person, it will be a disaster for a country!

Of course, although his loss was caused by this handwritten letter from Emperor Song, Yeluchun did not get angry with Wu Yong, because he also knew that things would be like this, and he could only blame himself for not meeting a good emperor, otherwise it would not have been possible to cause domestic rebellions under his rule, let alone be forced by the gold thieves to such an extent that he actually wanted to give up a huge Liaodong to negotiate peace with the gold thieves.

However, Ye Lu Chun's trip was not all without gain, although the emperor in order to clear the obstacles hit the main war faction minister, but Ye Lu Chun is his hero after all, plus Ye Lu Chun's timely Ming Zhe did not contradict the emperor in the court, the emperor appreciated him more, so, in order to appease Ye Lu Chun, the emperor specially set up a banquet in the palace to entertain him, the two monarchs and ministers naturally talked about the Song Emperor's handwritten letter in the banquet, Ye Lu Chun introduced the origin of the letter to the emperor in detail, as well as the current situation in the Song State,

Only then did the emperor know that the emperor of the Song State was not having a good time now, and the rebellion in the Song State was even more serious than that of the Liao State, at least he was not forced to establish a vassal by the rebellious thieves, nor was he occupied by the thieves to form a base.

Only then did Yeluchun timely put forward to the emperor his opinion that the Song State feudal town wanted to buy horses from Da Liao, and he said, "After Your Majesty and Jin negotiate peace, no matter whether the gold thieves stop or not, you must not relax your vigilance against the Song State." The minister has already understood that the Jingdong Domain of the Song State was originally a group of grass bandits, but they repeatedly defeated the encirclement and suppression army of the Song State, and last year they defeated more than 200,000 Song troops of the Song State, forcing the Song State to change the foundation of the country and recruit them into a feudal town. Obviously, Song State's move is just an expedient measure, and when Song State quells their southeast rebellion, they will take action against those Jingdong Domain Towns, and those Jingdong Domain Towns also understand this, so they will take the risk to send Song Emperor's handwritten letter to us, wanting to rely on our strength to grow stronger, so that they can have enough strength to protect themselves. In this case, we might as well promise those Jingdong Domain Towns, the stronger they are, the greater the threat to the Song State, and the less the Song State will be able to deal with us. Anyway, we won't suffer a loss, just selling them some horses at the original price, or even at a high price, can cultivate an enemy for the Song Kingdom that will make them sleep, why not? ”

The emperor also felt very reasonable when he heard this, but he asked with some concern, "If we cultivate them, will we be cultivating a future enemy?" ”

Ye Luchun smiled and shook his head, "Absolutely not, why did they join us?" Because they were afraid of the Song Kingdom. The minister said that the Song State has an annual income of 10,000,000 and a million troops, and it is a very powerful behemoth, maybe the Jingdong Domain can win a partial war victory against the Song State, but as long as the Song State is determined to do its best to deal with them, they can only wait for death. And the effect of the war horses we sold them is not so much to strengthen them, but to tie them to us, with our help, they can resist the Song State, and we only need to control this 'help' to a just right degree, so that they can not only threaten the Song State, but also cannot really become strong." To put it bluntly, they are just a chess piece in our hands to contain the Song Kingdom. When we get through the current difficult period, even if Jin and Song really join forces, there is no need to be afraid, just a little trick can lead them to fight with Song Guo and break the bloodstream, and both will lose, and then we will ...... again! ”

The emperor was overjoyed when he heard this, and he finally made up his mind, "Okay, just do what Uncle Huang wants, since the hateful Song State betrayed the covenant first, don't blame us for betraying the covenant too!" This matter will be specifically handed over to the imperial uncle, except for the war horse, if they have other requests that can be satisfied, they will be satisfied, as long as they can contain the Song Kingdom, so that the Song Kingdom can also taste the taste of being betrayed, I will agree! ”

In this way, Ye Luchun returned to Nanjing with this only gain and immediately summoned Wu Yong,

Such a big thing happened in the Great Liao Imperial Court, the news had already been transmitted back to Nanjing, and Wu Yong also learned from Huang Xing's mouth about the great changes that had taken place in the Great Liao Imperial Court, and he was also extremely shocked by such a result, he never expected that the Emperor of Liao would make such a decision to cede land and pay compensation, lose power and humiliate the country, that letter not only did not make the Emperor of Liao recognize the grim situation in front of him, but frightened him!

At the same time, Wu Yong also felt deeply worried, he was worried that Yeluchun would be angry with him because of this, or refuse his request to buy a horse, but the result was again beyond his expectations, Yeluchun told him that the Emperor of Daliao had agreed to sell you the war horse,

Wu Yong was overjoyed when he heard this, although he did not achieve one of the two major tasks ordered by the commander, to lead the Liao State to attack the Jin State, but at least the purpose of buying horses was finally achieved.

Wu Yong was about to thank him, but Yeluchun stopped him and continued, "But if you want to buy a horse, you must also agree to our three conditions, first, you will be a vassal to us. Second, you obey our orders, and when we order you to attack the Song Kingdom, you must obey unconditionally. Third, we will send you an overseer. ”

The harsh conditions put forward by the Liao State were also expected by Zheng Fei and Wu Yong, and Wu Yong immediately replied, "I can't be the master of the three things that the prince said, I want to go back and ask our commander." ”

Ye Luchun nodded, "Yes, then Huang Xing will go with you, and he will represent this king." ”
