Hua Rong sent a team of men and horses to escort the Zhao'an delegation to Yunzhou, the road was also smooth, and when they arrived in Yunzhou City, Hu Sanniang, Wu Yong, and Pang Wanchun greeted them on behalf of Zheng Fei, and said that the commander was inspecting the Quartet, and would return in a few days, so please wait patiently.

Then the Zhao'an delegation was led to live in the mansion that had already been cleaned up, and was told that everyone in Yunzhou City can visit at will, but don't tell the people that you are from the imperial court, otherwise it will be bad if there is an accident.

Zhao Liangsi and Zhang Shuye were not surprised by this result at all, both of them were anxious in front of outsiders, but they were extremely leisurely when they were alone, but the Daimyo's Mansion couldn't wait, half a day was a letter, and Hua Rong sent someone to escort the person who sent the letter to and from the border and Yunzhou City, and the letter was not Liang Shijie urging him to see Zheng Linfeng quickly,

Although Liang Shijie did not elaborate on the current battle situation in the letter, judging from their anxious reaction, the situation on Jingdong Road must be very bad.

On the third day, Liang Shijie wrote another letter, in which he told the mission that the imperial court had ordered the Daimyofu, Hebei Dong, Yingtianfu and other places to garrison the border with troops that could be dispatched, and put on the appearance of attacking the Liangshan bandits, intending to coerce the Liangshan bandits to stop attacking Jingdong Road.

This news caused a commotion in the Zhao'an Mission, and as soon as the Zhao'an Mission entered the other party's territory, the imperial court had this reaction, which was actually very unfavorable to the Zhao'an Mission, because once the war really started again, the mission was likely to become a deflating bucket for the Liangshan bandits, and the consequences would be unimaginable.

Zhao Liangsi couldn't help but be a little worried, he wasn't worried about his safety, he believed that with his relationship with Zheng Linfeng, he was absolutely fine, and he knew very well that the imperial court currently only had 100,000 troops left around Jingxi Road at most, and more than 200,000 people had never fought anyone at the beginning, and now with these 100,000 people, can they scare people? He was just worried that Zhao'an would have an accident, because he smelled a little bad smell from this move of the imperial court, that is, the emperor seemed to be in a hurry, and he would rather make this move regardless of the safety of himself and the mission, which also shows that the imperial court is currently pessimistic about the peace, if Zheng Linfeng does not make a little sincerity, this time Zhao'an may be out of play.

Sure enough, early in the morning of the fourth day, the mission received news that the commander of the Heavenly Dao Army had returned and was going to meet them at the commander's mansion!

Zhao Liangsi finally breathed a long sigh of relief after receiving the news, and secretly said in his heart that this Zheng Linfeng was really calm, and it took another night to show up, but I'm afraid that in this night, Jingdong East Road lost another piece of the boss's territory, right?

Zhao Liangsi immediately wrote a letter to Liang Shijie, telling him the news, asking him to wait patiently, saying that he could go to see that Zheng Linfeng now, and there should be definite news in half a day.

Subsequently, Zhao Liangsi and his entourage walked towards the commander's mansion under the escort of the Heavenly Dao Army, and on the way, the people of the mission saw that the city of Yunzhou was full of lights, and the people were also pulling firecrackers and setting off firecrackers.

Zhao Liangsi asked a member of the Heavenly Dao Army, "Excuse me, is today a special day?" ”

The guard replied with a happy face, "Of course, last night, the eldest lady and the second lady of our commander gave birth to a son at the same time, and the people are spontaneously celebrating this happy day when they hear it. ”

Zhao Liangsi was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he smiled bitterly in his heart, and secretly said that Zheng Linfeng's kid is only afraid that there will be an excuse again.

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

As soon as they arrived at the Commander's Mansion, they were told that the Commander was happy to have two sons, but the two ladies were in poor health after giving birth and needed to cultivate quietly.

However, they were also told that the commander was very sincere about the peace talks, but now that the imperial army was pressing, they were deeply disturbed by this, and hoped that Zhao Liangsi could tell the imperial court to let the imperial court withdraw its troops, as long as the imperial court withdrew its troops, they would immediately stop attacking Jingdong East Road, and everyone would sit down and talk about it at that time.

Zhao Liangsi almost laughed on the spot when he heard this, and shouted in his heart, Are you still afraid of the "army" of the imperial court? The so-called "pressing" imperial army is not afraid of you, it is good enough.

But I have to say that Zheng Linfeng played really beautifully, and the court originally intended to send troops to threaten them, but Zheng Linfeng found an excuse again.

"Didn't your court send troops? I'm so scared, of course I can't negotiate peace, and I have to find a way to protect myself, how to protect myself? Of course, I laid Jingdong East Road, and the territory was larger. Therefore, if you want to negotiate peace, you can do it, but you must first show your sincerity, that is, you must withdraw first, and I will withdraw if you withdraw from the army, isn't it fair? However, does it take time for the news of your withdrawal to reach the imperial court? Will it take time for the imperial court to really send the news of the withdrawal to the front line? I didn't say that I would stop attacking Jingdong East Road during this time! ”

Bummer! It's a bummer! Zhao Liangsi couldn't help but scold Zheng Fei in his heart, but in the current context of the imperial court not daring to really fight, but also really wanting to use Zhao'an to solve the crisis, this almost scoundrel method is indeed the most effective way to maintain a continuous offensive and give the court a glimmer of hope for peace talks, so as not to let the peace talks end in vain. In short, the imperial court really lifted a stone and shot itself in the foot this time.

Next, Zhao Liangsi and his entourage returned to the mansion again, and Zhao Liangsi immediately wrote another letter to Liang Shijie, promising the Liangshan thieves to negotiate peace, but the conditions for the imperial court to withdraw the troops must be fully detailed. After writing it, the letter was immediately handed over to a special person and sent to the daimyo's mansion urgently.

Zhao Liangsi looked at the back of the messenger who was quickly moving away, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, Brother Zheng, Brother Zheng, why is it so difficult for me to see you?

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

In the evening, Liang Shijie received Zhao Liangsi's first letter, he was relieved when he saw the content, Zhao Liangsi said in the letter that there should be results in half a day, Liang Shijie didn't dare to sleep, so he waited patiently, waited,

Unexpectedly, he received Zhao Liangsi's second letter in less than half a day, Liang Shijie was checking the offset printing of the envelope to ensure that the envelope had not been opened, and the nervousness in the process of unpacking the envelope was even more nervous than the waiting process of asking someone to go to Cai Jing's house to ask for relatives, and when he opened the envelope, Liang Shijie was immediately dumbfounded, but he reacted after a while, and immediately wrote a recital, and together with this letter, he passed it to Tokyo with the fastest horse,

Two days later, the song and the letter were sent to Tokyo, and the emperor and the ministers saw that their noses were crooked, and they all scolded the Liangshan thieves for being shameless and scoundrels, you first attacked Jingdong Road, but you only retreated if you wanted us to withdraw the army?

But scolding Gui and scolding, the promise that the thief said "I am willing to negotiate peace, as long as you withdraw from the army, I will withdraw the army" still made the emperor and the ministers see a glimmer of hope, because ...... War is on the Northwest!

Six days ago, the 300,000 Western Xia army crossed the border and invaded Yongxing Military Road and Qinfeng Road in two ways.

This time, the attack of the Tanguts was obviously premeditated and fierce, and the generals of the Western army resisted vigorously, and the two sides had been fighting on the long border for five days, showing a state of anxiety.

The imperial court was extremely shocked when it got the news, and wanted to transfer Tong Guan back to the northwest to command the western army to fight, but the southeast counterinsurgency was also at a critical moment, and the change of commander was afraid of regeneration. Here, the Liangshan bandits began to attack Jingdong East Road again, and the battle was urgent.

For a time, the three locations of the Great Song Dynasty faced a big war at the same time, and one was more dangerous than the other, which was an unprecedented dangerous situation encountered by the Great Song Dynasty since the pacification of the countries, which made the emperor and the ministers worried about the outside and the inside, so that the emperor was sick and went to the hospital, and the emperor ordered the army to invade the Jingdong and West Roads, intending to force the Liangshan thieves to accept Zhao'an as soon as possible, and at least stop attacking the Jingdong East Road first.

For this result, although the emperor and the ministers felt very humiliated, but they could only choose to accept it, on the same day, the emperor urgently ordered the Daimyo's Mansion and other troops to immediately withdraw from the vicinity of Jingxi Road.

It has been two or three days since the news reached the Daimyo's Mansion and Hebei East Road, and six or seven days have passed back and forth, but the Liangshan thieves have kept their promises, and stopped attacking Jingdong East Road on the day the imperial army withdrew, because ...... Jingdong East Road, except for Dengzhou, has all fallen into the hands of the Eastern Expeditionary Army!
