Chapter 275: Meeting Ma Zhi
Tong Xiang accompanied Ma Zhi towards Dengzhou Customs, along the way saw Dengzhou's developed commerce and a prosperous scene, Ma Zhi's attitude towards Tong Xiang changed, and said, "Master Tong, Dengzhou is so prosperous and orderly, it is all your credit, after I go back this time, I will definitely recommend you to Your Majesty." Whole\Ben\Small\Say\Net"
Tong Xiang sneered, thinking that he would wait for you to go back. fell into the hands of Liang Shan, and you, the minister, are also a dead end.
Tong Xiang, Ma Zhi and others had just come to Dengzhou Wharf, when suddenly hundreds of soldiers rushed out of front and came towards this side.
These soldiers all held spears in their hands and directly surrounded Ma Zhi, Tong Xiang and others, and Ma Zhi couldn't help but be stunned.
"Lady Tong, what's going on?" Ma Zhi hurriedly asked.
"I don't know! Could it be that these soldiers could not rebel? Tong Xiang pretended to be stupid.
At this time, a man walked out and said, "Which one is Lord Zhao from the capital?" β
Ma Zhi stood up and said, "It's me, what's wrong?" β
The man laughed and said, "That's right, come with us!" β
Ma Zhi frowned and said, "Let's go?" Where to go? β
The man said, "Of course it's by boat!" β
At that moment, the man waved his hand, and countless soldiers rushed forward and tied Ma Zhi and a group of people with ropes. Ma Zhi didn't know the current situation, the number of soldiers in front of him was too much, and it was difficult to resist, so he let these people tie him up at the moment. And he thought that these people were officers and soldiers, so he was not very afraid.
Along the way, Ma Zhi repeatedly identified himself as a "minister" to the soldiers, but no one paid any attention to him, and the soldiers took him to a large ship, then pushed him to a large house, and then closed his hands and left.
"Where the hell is this? Who are those people? It was pitch black all around, and Ma Zhi's heart was extremely depressed.
He was ordered by the emperor to envoy to the Jin Kingdom, and now he has not left the land of the Song Dynasty, but he was tied up by "his own people". There was still a trace of luck in his heart now, and he hoped that those people would be able to release him immediately after seeing the holy decree.
In the cabin of the big ship, Wu Dong was sitting there, Han Shizhong was beside him, and said, "Governor, why do you want to arrest this person?" β
Wu Dong said: "Let me first see what this so-called holy decree and national letter is. β
After speaking, Wu Dong directly opened the holy decree and the letter of state, and began to browse. In fact, things like the Holy Decree and the National Letter are highly secret, and even Ma Zhi didn't know the true contents of them until JiΔo was given to the Jin people. It is a great sin to open the holy decree and the national letter.
Han Shizhong sweated on his forehead, thinking that Wu Dong was too bold. Although he took refuge in Liangshan, his thinking has not completely changed. For this kind of "domineering" behavior, he disagrees very much in his heart.
"It turned out to be the national letter of Lianjin to destroy Liao!" Wu Dong was stunned for a moment, remembered the famous figure in history, and said, "It turns out that the so-called minister of the Qin Mission is actually Ma Zhi?" β
"Ma Zhi?" Han Shizhong had also heard of this person, who was said to be a righteous man of Yanyun who returned to his homeland thousands of miles away. Of course, Han Shizhong didn't know that Ma Zhi was the chief architect of Lianjin's destruction of Liao, and he was also the biggest sinner in the fall of the Northern Song Dynasty.
"Yanjing and the state city under its jurisdiction, it was originally a Han land, if you want to restore the old, you will turn the Zilai and Khitan silver silk into jiΔo......" Wu Dong suddenly saw this paragraph in the national letter, and couldn't help but read it aloud.
"This is ......," Han Shizhong said in surprise.
"This is the content of the national book, which is really surprising." Wu Dong said with a smile.
"How so?" Han Shizhong is a martial artist, but he is also quite familiar with literature and history, and he also understands the content of these national letters of Wen Zou Zou. It turned out that the letter of state actually said that if the Jin people promised to give Yanyun to the Han people, then the Song Dynasty was willing to give the New Year's coins and silk cloth to the Khitan people.
The so-called New Year's coin is the silver money that the Song Dynasty people gave to the Khitan and Western Xia people every year. After receiving these silver coins, the Khitans and Western Xia people promised not to invade the Central Plains, which was regarded as exchanging silver money for peace.
Originally, the year coin was a symbol of humiliation, and there was absolutely no such thing in the Han and Tang dynasties. Even in the last years of the Tang Dynasty, the world has been moved, but the festival of any strong town can be outside, and the territory of foreign tribes is like entering a no-man's land. The Great Song Dynasty couldn't defeat the Khitans and the Western Xia people, so they had to hand over the New Year's coins.
And now there is no contact with the Jin people, and now just send an envoy, the emperor of the Great Song Dynasty promised to give the Jin people New Year's coins.
The more Han Shizhong thought about it, the more angry he became, and he couldn't help but say, "How can this be reasonable?" β
And Wu Dong was thinking about the holy decree and the letter of state, and secretly said, "Is it time to join forces to destroy Liao?" β
Wu Dong came from the later generations, so he naturally knew what the ending of Lianjin and Liao would be. For the Jin people, they were not very confident at first, and they thought that their strength was not enough to completely destroy the Liao State, so they wanted to unite with the Song people. Song Huizong's "national letter" can be said to have given the Jin people a dose of strengthening, and the Jin people destroyed Liao in a big way. In the process of destroying the Liao, the Jin people found that they didn't need to unite with the Song people at all, and only then did they know how strong their strength was.
"If the Jin people don't form an alliance with the Great Song Dynasty, then their battle to destroy Liao will definitely be postponed, right?" Wu Dong was secretly pondering this matter.
"Ma Zhi, this is also an interesting person." Thinking of Ma Zhi again, Wu Dong couldn't help laughing.
He had no prejudice against Ma Zhi, although this person was a "jiΔn minister" in the history of the Song Dynasty, but Wu Dong felt that this person was worthy of admiration. This person is in the Khitan, but he does not forget his homeland, in order to be able to let Yan Yun return to the embrace of the motherland, he took many risks, went to the territory of the Jin people seven times, and negotiated with the Jin people. In the process of negotiation, he also continued to fight for the benefits of the Song people, originally Song Huizong promised to give all the coins to the Liao people to the Jin people, but Ma Zhi was stunned to cut down 200,000 coins, the original letter of state as long as the place near Yanjing, and Ma Zhi and Wanyan Agu when they negotiated, Datong was also won over.
If you want to say that this person is wrong, it is only that he has limited knowledge, and he does not have a deep enough understanding of the weakness of the Great Song Dynasty. The personality of this famous "jiΔn minister" is still admirable.

"Governor, the minister of the imperial court is shouting to see you." At this time, Dai Zong ran in and said.
"Bring him here." Wu Dong Road.
At that moment, someone brought Ma Zhi in, this person was full of beard, giving people a very vicious feeling, but his eyes were very bright, and if he only looked at his eyes, he gave people a sense of integrity.
"Lord Ma, please be seated." Wu Dong Road.
Ma Zhi was stunned, after he changed his name to "Zhao Liangsi" over the years, others called him "Lord Zhao", and few people called him "Lord Ma", so he was a little unaccustomed. In fact, Wu Dong is a person from later generations, in later generations, people often call Ma Zhi, and few people mention the name "Zhao Liangsi", so he naturally calls "Master Ma".
"Who the hell are you? Why did you arrest me? Ma Zhi didn't sit down, but asked with fire in his eyes.
"I am Wu Dong, the governor of Liangshan, and the people in the rivers and lakes are called timely rain." Wu Dong Road.
"The Governor of Liangshan? Is there still such an official in the imperial court? Ma Zhi was stunned.
He is a Han of Liao, although he has been in Bianliang for a long time, but he has a limited understanding of the Great Song Dynasty, and he does not know that there is a Liangshanbo in Shandong, and he does not know that this so-called Dadu Governor is self-appointed by Wu Dong.
Wu Dong didn't care if he recognized him or not, and immediately said, "Master Ma, I heard that you first proposed to the emperor to join forces to destroy Liao, but is there such a thing?" β
Ma Zhi said, "Yes, what's wrong?" β
Wu Dong smiled and said, "We can't deal with the Liao people, now that the Liao country is our neighbor, they are also very corrupt in the country, and we and the Liao people are still at peace." Have you ever thought that if we unite with the Jin people and destroy the Liao State, the Jin people will be our neighbors, and they will be more brave and powerful than the Liao people, and if the Jin people invade us at that time, what will we do? β
Ma Zhi was stunned for a moment, and said, "As long as we guard the city, we shouldn't be afraid of the Jin people attacking!" Besides, this time I went to the Jin country to make an alliance with the Jin people, and with the alliance, neither side will break it. β
Wu Dong looked at Ma Zhi like a fool, this Ma Zhi is really too naΓ―ve, right? Will there be peace between nations because of a covenant?
Ma Zhi saw that Wu Dong was stunned, and thought that he had persuaded Wu Dong, and hurriedly said, "This ...... Governor Dadu, I am the minister of the imperial court, and I am burdened with a heavy responsibility, you should let me go quickly, otherwise you will miss the major affairs of the imperial court, and you will not be able to afford it. β
Wu Dong laughed out loud and said, "If I want to let you go, it's impossible now." In the future, maybe I will join forces with Liao to resist Jin, and then I need you to hand me a credential. β
"What? Lianliao anti-gold? You jiΔn thief! Ma Zhi shouted.
Wu Dong waved his hand, and several Shi guards rushed in, pulled Ma Zhi away, and locked him up again.
Han Shizhong is pondering which is right or wrong between "Lianjin and Liao" and "Lianliao and Jin", the more he thinks about it, the more he is big, he is a famous general, but a famous general does not necessarily understand politics.
Wu Dong saw Han Shizhong's sad face, and said, "General Han, when you have the opportunity, you will personally go to the north to see how the Jin people's soldiers are, and then think about whether to join Jin to attack Liao or Lianliao to resist Jin, don't you say?" β
Han Shizhong nodded and said, "What the Metropolitan Governor said is good. β
Whether to unite the Jin people against the Liao people, or to unite the Liao people against the Jin people, this is actually a very simple question, mainly depending on the strength of the two. If the Liao people are strong, then unite the Jin people. If the Jin people are strong, then unite the Liao people. Many people in this era can't see through this problem, but Wu Dong comes from later generations and can't see this problem more thoroughly.

Li Jun, Li Li, Zhang Heng, Tong Wei, and Tong Meng stood on the bow of the boat, and their hearts were extremely excited. Their mood now is the same as the mood of Ruan Xiaoqi, Zhang Shun and others when they saw the sea for the first time.
"What a big lΓ ng head, Xunyang River can't be compared at all!" A big lΓ ng hit, Li Jun laughed.
"Brothers, how about we go down and have fun?" Zhang Heng said with a smile.
"Good! I'll go down and test the water first! Tong Wei took off his shirt, and a fierce man jumped off the boat, and Li Jun, Zhang Heng and others also jumped down with him.
Everyone rushed and dived in the sea to show their kung fu, and Wu Dong, Han Shizhong, Dai Zong and others were attracted and ran out one after another.
"What a bunch of heroes!" Han Shizhong exclaimed.
"When they arrive in Goryeo, they are part of the navy." Wu Dong said with a smile.
"Goryeo, I really want to see that place." Han Shizhong said with some longing.
"It will be over soon, a day or two at most." Wu Dong Road.
The distance between Goryeo and Dengju was very close, and sure enough, three days later, when they saw the land ahead, everyone cheered loudly.
"Goryeo, it's finally here again! Before the fall of the Liao State, I must conquer Goryeo, and then unite the Liao people to flank the Jin people. Wu Dong said secretly.
