One Hundred and Eighty-Eight The Countdown to the Beginning of the Life of the Great Song Dynasty (3)
Ah Guta's speech was not made up, and Zhao Liangsi, who knew all the ins and outs of it, echoed: "What Your Majesty said is very true, Your Majesty only used 20 years to destroy the Liao that used to dominate the universe. ”
Ah Gu laughed, and the generals of the Jin army were also a little proud, after all, this was said by the envoy of the famous civilized country Song, and they patted their ass big, they were all quite proud, and they looked at Zhao Liangsi a lot by the way.
After laughing, Ah Gu opened his mouth and said: "Lianghei, sit, sit, you all sit, don't stand all the time, don't stare so big with your eyes, don't put your hands on the sword, Liangji is my friend, be polite, don't be rude!" ”
The generals of the Jin army promised one after another, and then sat down, Zhao Liangsi also sat down under the guidance of his entourage, after sitting down, Ah Guda instructed his entourage to serve some wine and food, to ask for some singing and dancing, and the banquet for Zhao Liangsi's reception and dust washing began, everyone, you have a cup and I have a cup, I am very happy, Wanyan Zongwang saw Zhao Liangsi has been looking at himself, he couldn't help but smile slightly, and raised the wine glass quite politely, and saluted Zhao Liangsi, Zhao Liangsi was flattered, and hurriedly raised his glass, and drank it in one gulp, and the two looked at each other and smiled.
Wanyan Wu Qimai also raised a glass to Zhao Liangsi, Zhao Liangsi also hurriedly raised his glass, and it was a clean mouthful, Wu Qimai laughed, Zong Wang looked at Wu Qimai, his brows furrowed slightly, this scene fell in Zhao Liangsi's eyes, but he didn't care at this time.
After three rounds of drinking, everyone was slightly drunk, but Ah Guda kept sober, seeing that Zhao Liangsi was a little restless, his eyes flickered, he knew Zhao Liangsi's idea, and his mind was turning, so he waved his hand to let the song and dance Ji retreat, and said by himself: "Liangsi, you are here this time for the affairs of Yanyun Sixteen Prefectures, right?" ”
The term Yanyun Sixteen Prefectures is the most famous sensitive word now, as soon as these words came out, the laughter and laughter in the audience came to an abrupt end, and the smile on the face of every Jin Bing general disappeared, replaced by solemnity and dissatisfaction, Fang Cai was obviously drunk, but now he was instantly sober, more sober than when he didn't drink.
Seeing this, Zhao Liangsi knew that he would not be able to do it if he didn't harden his head, so Zhao Liangsi stood up and bowed to Ah Gu: "That's true, I learned to Your Majesty that Dajin captured Yanjing and won a complete victory, I am very happy, and I am envious of Dajin's martial arts, and at the same time, I have also prepared materials to reward the soldiers of the army, and I am ready to reward the soldiers of the army and celebrate the achievements of the army. ”
As soon as these words came out, the temperature in the hall suddenly plummeted, and Zhao Liangsi felt that the clothes on his body could not resist the swishing cold, and then he heard a sneer: "Hehehehehe, the Northern Expedition was defeated twice in a row, and then when I saw that we defeated the Liao, I came to ask us for the sixteen states of Yanyun, your country is really good at faith!" I read Han books, I have seen an idiom, called Tian shameless, I don't know if it can summarize the current situation? ”
The speaker was naturally the famous hawk Wanyan Zonghan, and most of the golden generals in the hall sneered along with his words, and the deep killing intent made Zhao Liangsi feel that he had fallen into a wolf's den, so he could only turn his gaze for help to Wanyan Aguda, who was sitting at the top.
Ah Guda frowned and said, "Sticky Han, did I let you speak?" This is Yanjing, not Huanglong Mansion! Liangji is an envoy of the Great Song Dynasty, not a Liao, but a friend of ours, shut up for me! ”
Ah Guta took out the majesty of the emperor, scared Zong Han so much that he didn't dare to make a sound, and hurriedly bowed his head to admit his mistake, for fear that Ah Guda would do something in anger, Ah Guta's prestige and power are supreme, even if it is his own father, the Prime Minister must obey any decision of Ah Guta, there is no doubt about it.
Seeing Zong Han's confession, Ah Guda nodded, and said to Zhao Liangsi with a slight apology: "Lianghei, I'm really sorry, these young people have won a lot of battles, so they feel that they are so great, they are invincible in the world, you have read so many books, haven't you read the allusion that the arrogant army will be defeated?!" ”
Zhao Liangsi breathed a sigh of relief, at least Ah Guta is still reasonable, then that's fine, he hasn't looked away from Ah Guda for more than ten years, Ah Guda doesn't want to be an enemy of Song, that's enough.
But......
Zhao Liangsi is not incompetent, he can see that the entire Jurchen ruling class wants to live in peace with Song is only a few, the vast majority of generals and soldiers with bandit blood just want to plunder, they are poor and crazy, poor and afraid, and suddenly see another world, the huge psychological gap makes their already tyrannical heart even more tyrannical - my things are mine! Your stuff is mine too! I'm going to! I'm going to! I want them all!
Aguta has a strong ruling power and prestige, as long as Aguta will not order the Song to be cut down in the era of Aguta's rule, then, the Song is safe, what about after Aguta?
Zhao Liangsi cared about two points that were completely incompatible with the atmosphere in the entire hall - Wanyan Zongwang and Wanyan Wu begging.
Having dealt with the Jurchens for so long, Zhao Liangsi knows the internal relationship of the Jurchens very well, Wanyan Zongwang is Wanyan Aguta's favorite son, Wanyan Wu Qimai is the next emperor of the Jin State according to the Jurchen rules, Wanyan Zongwang has a very strong military power in his hands, and Wanyan Wu Qimai is destined to be the representative of the Jin State regime, and will also be the leader, and the internal and foreign affairs of the next generation of the Jin State are under the leadership of these two people.
Ah Gu Da will not cut down the Song Dynasty, that is the practice of the ruling class of this generation of the Jin State, or the personal will of A Gu Da, but A Gu Da is very old, I don't know how long he has to live, after A Gu Da, Wanyan Wu begging to buy his position and Wanyan Zongwang, who controls the huge power to speak, is the greatest hope of Song.
You must let Wu beg to be the emperor! Zong Wang must be allowed to hold military power!
Zhao Liangsi begged like this.
In the hall, the controversy over the sixteen states of Yanyun is still going on......
"Our army is fighting a bloody battle with the Liao army, and we have paid the price of tens of thousands of soldiers and horses for the sixteen states of Yanyun! And now you are only relying on a treaty to take away the land we bought with our lives, even if Your Majesty agrees, the Dajin soldiers will definitely not agree! Wanyan Zongpan, the eldest son of the famous hawk and Wanyan Wu begging to buy his grandson, stood up and shouted angrily.
There is still a gap between Wu Qimai and Zong Pan, Lao Tzu does not support the Song Dynasty, but his son is the main hawk.
In this era, the Jin army, the hawkish generals occupy an absolute advantage, and a small number of moderate generals do not have an advantage, although Wanyan Zongwang does not support the Song Dynasty at this time, but he is also dissatisfied with the attitude and way of the Song Dynasty wanting to obtain the sixteen states of Yanyun, so he raised an objection: "Puluhu (Zongpan Nu's real name), although it is said so, but we men must be faithful, and after the founding of the country, the country must emphasize faithfulness, since it is a covenant made, then it must be observed, otherwise, what face stands between heaven and earth?" ”
Zong Pan did not refute: "I don't object to this, men have to talk about faithfulness, but Da Song did not abide by our agreement!" There is no need for us to abide by this protocol either! ”
Zong Wang nodded and said to Zhao Liangsi: "Mr. Zhao, you shouldn't have any objection to the dishonesty of the Great Song Dynasty, right?" ”
Zhao Liangsi said in a cold sweat: "The failure of the Northern Expedition, the main reason is the improper use of personnel, a Northern Expedition, the commander committed suicide before the battle, which made the whole army collapse, before the Second Northern Expedition, the main army just defeated the 500,000 troops of the party members, very tired, otherwise, we would definitely not encounter such an end, but we did not do what was stipulated in the treaty, this is a fact, so after considering it, His Majesty decided to make up for our country's mistakes with money, and also asked Dajin to fulfill the agreement and sell the sixteen states of Yanyun to our country in the form of redemption!" ”
"Ransom?" Ah Gu began to calculate in his heart, the 300,000 army behind him, the millions of money in front of him, the trick of a big stick in one hand and a radish in the other hand is really good, I am really not afraid that we will not agree, but the more domineering statement should be the 300,000 army behind the back, and the million money in front of you, which one do you want?
The only thing that Aguta is a little puzzled about is why these 300,000 troops didn't come to the Northern Expedition once and three times? Pick it up yourself, but buy it instead? Could it be that you don't want to fight?
Zhao Liangsi opened his mouth and said: "The emperor of this dynasty considers that the soldiers of your country have been in battle for a long time, the veteran soldiers are tired, lack of supplies and military funds, and naturally lack money and goods, so he is willing to use money to buy the cities and mouths that have been attacked and defeated by the Dajin Kingdom, and we only need the Han people in the city, not others, except for the Han people and their family property, the rest of the things can be taken by the Dajin Kingdom as war trophies." ”
Zong Han said coldly: "The Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun used to be Han land, naturally there were Han people, you want to take so many things, how much money do you have to take to redeem them?" The Dajin army and the Liao people are competing, you don't do anything in the back, don't pay a little more price, no matter how you think about it, it won't work! ”
Zong Wang also echoed: "I also support this, Mr. Zhao, what did His Majesty the Great Song Emperor say?" ”
Zhao Liangsi opened his mouth and said: "This point is naturally discussed by someone, but please rest assured, the redemption price we paid is absolutely satisfactory to you, and you should also agree that if you can solve the problem with money and goods, why bother with human lives?" ”
Zong Han snorted, sat down and stopped talking, Zong Wang looked at Ah Guta, nodded slightly, and stopped talking, Wu Qimai looked at everything coldly, and didn't know how to think in his heart, Ah Guda breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Since everyone has no opinion on this matter, then it is decided, the Great Song Dynasty will redeem the sixteen states of Yanyun with money and goods, and we will continue to go west and recover the remnants of the Khitan!" ”
