Chapter Ninety-Four: Weak Countries Have No Diplomacy

At the end of the song, the banquet began and ended in the wind and rain, and after sending off the other students, Zhao Liangsi deliberately left Qin Hao behind. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

This reception banquet, although it was said to be for Zhao Liangsi to receive the wind and wash the dust, but from beginning to end, Zhao Liangsi's expression did not stretch, and it can be seen that he did not make Jin as smooth as he imagined this time.

Qin Hao did not forget Zhao Liangsi's instructions before leaving, not only went to Liangshan to arrest Lai Ba back, but also destroyed the entire Liangshan, and did not forget the agreement with Hu Yanqing.

After listening to Qin Hao's report, Zhao Liangsi suddenly came to the spirit and body

Leaning, looking at Qin Hao, he said with a smile: "What did you just say?" Is that fire in Liangshan really a heavenly fire? ”

"It's really a heavenly fire!" Qin Hao answered seriously, and after answering, he didn't care whether Zhao Liangsi believed it or not, but changed the topic and asked Hu Yanqing: "General Hu Yan still remembers our agreement three months ago?" ”

"Of course I do!" Hu Yanqing replied simply, turned his head and asked Ma Zhengdao, "Three months ago, this kid said that he would take two small teams of men and horses to capture you and me alive, should we fight or not?" ”

Ma Zheng smiled and said disapprovingly: "It's okay to fight, but this June day, God is moody, a moment of heavy rain, a moment of fire, Ma Zheng's old bones may not be able to withstand the toss!" ”

When Liangshan was burned, Ma Kuo witnessed it with his own eyes, and Ma Zheng was Ma Kuo's father, so he naturally knew the truth, tens of thousands of soldiers and horses in Liangshan were defeated under Qin Hao's fire, so why not admit defeat directly in this battle?

Hu Yanqing is also a general of a hundred battles, and he is also quite impressed by Qin Hao's ability to destroy Liangshan, and when he saw Ma Zheng admitting defeat, he also said with a smile: "This general also wants to live for two more years, and he doesn't want to become a human barbecue so soon, so if he doesn't fight this battle!" ”

Forget about this matter, Zhao Liangsi changed the topic and said slowly: "Shibei three days, when you look at it, the old man really didn't expect that you could get rid of the court's henchmen in just a few months." ”

In the face of Zhao Liangsi, Qin Hao has always behaved modestly, "General Huyan once said that day that Liangshan is just a rabble, and it is really incapable of exterminating Liangshan. ”

"Of course!" Hu Yanqing took Qin Hao's words and said, "General Ben did say that the reason why Liangshan is vertical and horizontal is because he has not encountered our Western Army, but your kid can wipe out Liangshan, and it does make General Ben admire him to the ground." ”

Hu Yanqing has been on the battlefield for decades, experienced in a hundred battles, and it is not easy to spit out the word "convincing" from his mouth.

Zhao Liangsi nodded, his face suddenly became solemn, and he said slowly: "This time, the old man and General Huyan went to the Jin Kingdom, just when the gold lord broke the face and took the capital, that guy, with the sound of war drums, the iron cavalry of the Jin army roared away, its sound was like thunder, its momentum was like a mountain, such an iron horse, it really opened my eyes with General Huyan!" ”

Hu Yanqing nodded, and said with emotion: "Lord Zhao is right, this general has also fought on the battlefield for many years, but it is really rare to see a tiger and wolf army like this, they began to attack the city in the morning, and before noon, the general Yan Mu broke through the outer city, and the Liao general Da Buye led the remnants of the army to surrender, that is to say, the gold lord Wanyan Aguta received us in Shangjing." ”

Thinking of the scene that day, Zhao Liangsi's expression was both excited and frightened, and it took a long time before he sighed and said: "Old man remembers, you asked at the beginning, after Lianjin destroyed Liao, how would the Great Song Dynasty face the Jin State, which was more powerful than the Liao State. ”

Qin Hao did ask this question, and Zhao Liangsi didn't care about it at that time, but seeing his expression today, he was quite touched, thinking that the shock of this battle on him was huge, and the impact was absolute.

Sure enough, Zhao Liangsi picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea, "It is precisely because of the strength of the Jin State that in the next negotiations, our side will be passive everywhere, although we will fight on the basis of reason, we still cannot achieve our expected results!" ”

Weak countries have no diplomacy, and so are the ages, the Great Song Dynasty has a developed economy and weak force, in the eyes of these nomads, it is a fat pig, the fatter and stronger, the happier it is.

Since it is not possible to change the national policy, it is only to retreat to the second best thing and strive to achieve greater benefits in the process of the alliance.

Seeing that Zhao Liangsi's expression looked a little lonely, Qin Hao, who had a vague understanding of history, suddenly asked tentatively: "Listening to the tone of the old gentleman, could it be that after this negotiation, Yan Aguda is only willing to give Yanyun Sixteen Prefectures, not including Pingzhou, Yingzhou and other places?" ”

Zhao Liangsi's expression changed a little, and he didn't answer Qin Hao's question directly, because he really couldn't answer this question, and he also raised this question during the negotiation with Yan Aguta.

However, Wanyan Aguta ruthlessly refused on the grounds that Zhao Ji's imperial pen only mentioned the land under Yanyun's jurisdiction, and believed that these two states did not belong to it.

When Qin Hao saw his expression, he knew the result, and said with a sigh: "The Jin Kingdom is dominated by cavalry, coming and going like the wind, while the soldiers of the Great Song Dynasty are mainly engaged in foot combat and are in a defensive position. If we can't recover all the old places south of the Great Wall such as Pingzhou and Yingzhou, and lose the barrier of the Great Wall, when facing the fast Jin Army Iron Cavalry, can we have a way to resist? ”

"Not really!"

Hu Yanqing also sighed, and his worries about Qin Hao can be said to be related, "Your concerns are also our concerns, if the Jin State does not abide by the covenant, raises troops from Xijing, and waves its army to the south, as long as it spreads an opening, it can go directly to Kaifeng, and it is bound to be dangerous!" ”

Zhao Liangsi also knew the importance of the two states of Pingying, and sighed slightly when he heard this, and said helplessly: "It's not that Zhao is unwilling to fight, but when the emperor came out with the imperial pen, he only mentioned the land of Yanyun, but not the two states of Pingying, so that the negotiations were blocked everywhere." ”

"It's not too late to make amends!" Qin Hao said in a deep voice, "If Qin Hao's guess is right, Mr. Jin's envoy this time is just a rough discussion of the covenant, and he has not signed an official credential, and I hope that after Mr. returns to the court, he will present it to the emperor." ”

When Qin Hao said this, he paused slightly, and then said loudly, "If you can't include all the areas south of the Great Wall, the covenant won't be discussed!" ”

Zhao Liangsi looked at Qin Hao, and was very satisfied that he could have this opinion, in his heart, Qin Hao and him should be the same kind of people, the same wisdom, the same self-recommendation.

Of course, everyone who made him more satisfied was trying their best to do the same thing, although everyone's views were a little different, but the goal was the same, that is, to recover Youzhou.

People with the same purpose or belief are always very speculative and cordial when they talk, and now Zhao Liangsi has this feeling for Qin Hao, and he does not look down on Qin Hao because of his youth.

nodded immediately, and said with affection: "Although the old man is the initiator of Ping Yance, it is the current saint who finally decides the case. ”

Speaking of this, he looked at Qin Hao and said approvingly, "You are talented and intelligent, and you have great courage, after the old man returns to the court, he will also make suggestions to the emperor, and the next time you make money, I will ask you to go with you!" ”
