The news was transmitted back to Tokyo by messenger, and it was impossible to agree to this first row of the river, even if the Empress Dowager Zheng wanted to agree, it was impossible for the ministers to agree. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

After all, although the big guys know that this world belongs to the Zhao family, but this land is from the Great Song Dynasty, and it was already the bottom line of the bottom line to reluctantly say that it was agreed to cede the three towns, and now they actually want to come to row the river and rule, and now it is most of the land of the Great Song Dynasty, how can they agree?

Besides, this has reached "100,000,000" (there was no '100 million' unit of measurement in the Song Dynasty), although there was a different use of "10 trillion when 100 million" at this time ("Yi Zhen" said: 100,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,00

Calculated in this way, the total price of Zhao Ji's father and son and the seventeen princes alone has reached 370,000,000 taels of silver, which is not an exaggeration!

Needless to say, after this news was made public in the court in Tokyo, it only took half a day to be known all over the city, and for a while, the discussion about whether Zhao Ji's father and son and the prince were worth this price became the mainstream topic of heated discussion after tea and dinner in the streets and alleys.

It's just that Huang Jie was not interested in the slightest when he got the news, but he was amused by another text on the intelligence, pointing to this place and watching the seed master and said: "Han Yu is in "The Original Dao", he once said: Sitting in the well and watching the sky, it is said that the sky is small, not the sky is small. I can't imagine that this Wu begging to buy, but he also knows Han Yu? ”

The origin of the idiom "sitting on a well and watching the sky" is Han Yu's "Yuan Dao", and the source of the idiom "sitting on a well and watching the sky" is also the "frog at the bottom of the well" in "Zhuangzi, Outer Chapters, Autumn Water". And Han Yu is a figure in the Tang Dynasty, and it has only been more than 400 years so far, it stands to reason that the Jin Jurchen is such a wilderness, and it is already awesome for someone to read the Analects, but I can't imagine that even Han Yu's "Original Dao" knows.

Having said that, the reason why Huang Jie was so hilarious was that when he saw Zhao Ji's father and son in the intelligence, the two of them "were both wearing furs, no different from savages", and they also heard that "the gold lord made people dig the ground and live in the second emperor, which is called sitting in a well and watching the sky".

Compared with Huang Jie, the planter couldn't cry or laugh, so he had to stare and say: "The monarch is humiliated, and the father-in-law is suffering, only you, an unfilial person, can laugh!" ”

Huang Jie laughed to himself: "At the beginning, Ziying said to the Grand Duke that he had seen the Second Emperor suffer such a humiliation in the Jin Kingdom in a strange dream, but the Grand Duke didn't believe it, but now what is it?" ”

The seed master said with a wry smile on his face, he had indeed heard Huang Jieyan talk about strange dreams, but he didn't want to see it in front of him, he really didn't know if this was a dream come true or a prophecy.

Not to mention how Huang Jie and Seed Master Dao laughed in Xiongzhou, there are things about how to redeem Zhao Ji's father and son, and how to bargain with Jin Guo, which is naturally a big deal in Tokyo.

Finally, after half a month of negotiations, the counteroffer given by the court of the Great Song Dynasty was: Zhao Ji and his son counteroffered a maximum of 20 million taels of silver, which had to be paid in installments for five years, and no one counteroffered 1 million taels as for the kings, but it was not all redeemed in one go, and at most five were redeemed this year, and finally the emperor, the concubine and a cadre of clan relatives, the price given was 100,000 yuan for the emperor and 10,000 for the concubine, and the clan relatives ranged from 10,000 to 1,000.

As for rowing the river and ruling the country, it is absolutely possible, and even if it is to be discussed, it can only be negotiated after the monarch returns to the court.

However, the Song court also put forward a "small" request, that is: if the Jin State does not agree to this price, it can continue to negotiate, but the Great Song Dynasty is willing to immediately pay two million taels of silver in exchange for the Jin State to release back a prince.

When this reply was sent to Huining Mansion by messenger, Wu Qimai was furious when he learned about it, and demanded that everyone must be packaged and redeemed, and not split to buy. And because the price returned by Song Ting was too disgusting, he immediately pulled out ten Zhao clan relatives and killed them in front of Zhang and Li on the spot, to show that Jin Guo was not bad for money.

Immediately, the ransom negotiations reached an impasse, and the only way to send messengers to run between the two countries was dead, and I don't know how many horses died in the process.

In Xiongzhou, Hebei, Huang Jie and Seed Master Dao, who looked at Di Bao, were all smiling, so they heard the seed master say with a smile: "It seems that Ziying's speculation is good, and the gold lord's move must be intended to delay time and use the second emperor to control the Great Song Dynasty, so as to concentrate on dealing with the disturbance of Tianzhen." ”

Seeing Huang Jie nodding, the seed master asked, "It's just ...... I heard that the Jin people were not tolerant of hot war, so I don't know why Ziying was unwilling to start a war in August? ”

Huang Jie sounded funny, so he also asked: "Grand Duke, let's do the math, if our army starts a war in August, how long will it take to fight from Xiongzhou to Pingzhou?" ”

The planter Dao was stunned when he heard this, and immediately understood, so he also patted his thigh and said, "Oops! Old! Old! The old man had forgotten all such an obvious thing, alas! ”

This Xiongzhou is not far from Pingzhou, if you go straight to the official road, it is only 500 miles is not enough, with the normal army's marching speed is only half a month, and then spend half a month camping under the city of Pingzhou, and the siege battle will be fought for another ten days and half a month...... If you're lucky, it's good to be able to conquer Pingzhou before the Chinese New Year!

That is to say, although the war starts at this time, although it seems to be polite to the Great Song Dynasty, it will soon evolve into a long winter war after winter, but it will give the reasonable conditions to the Jurchens who are good at fighting in winter, which is a big mistake.

The so-called hot war, that is, the summer war, and the Jurchen are not tolerant to the problem of hot war, Huang Jie also found the problem after in-depth research, that is, the Jurchen physique because of the need to adapt to the cold and harsh climate in the northeast, blood pressure is generally high, and the body is in a low temperature state, because the blood vessels on the body surface will constrict, resulting in vascular resistance and blood pressure rise, although this increases the load of the heart, and is particularly easy to induce cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, but also makes the Jurchens particularly active and excited in winter.

In the absence of effective antihypertensive drugs, symptoms such as dizziness, fatigue, irritability, fatigue and palpitations caused by high blood pressure are the specific manifestations of Jurchen intolerance to heat warfare.

Even in modern times, the high incidence of regional hypertension in Northeast China is one of the regional diseases that are difficult to cure, and at present, regional ills such as gout, rheumatism, hyperthyroidism, and schistosomiasis caused by the geographical environment are all group health problems that need to be solved urgently in today's society.

Having said that, after determining that the real cause of the Jurchens' intolerance to heat war was mass hypertension, Huang Jie's date for the Northern Expedition naturally had to be spring.
