In the past 100 years, the Battle of Yishui was the largest war between Song and Liao, the Song army suffered nearly 4,000 casualties, while the Liao army suffered more than 9,000 casualties and was captured more than 10,000, including eight Liao generals such as Ayedeli.

Psychological warfare can be said to be the main component of this war, Yang Yi made full use of the Liao army's always arrogant nature, with a small number of troops suddenly bullied the door, completely angered the Liao army, and then with a really hard battle, let the Liao army believe that they were really defeated, which lured the Liao army into an ambush. The choice of ambush sites was also very particular to maximize the results of the battle.

Yang Yi did not continue to attack, it only took half a day from Ansu to Rongcheng, he didn't need to bring baggage, and he fought very easily, but if he went deeper into the Liao realm, he had to consider the problem of baggage supply; To put it bluntly, the Great Song Dynasty was also not ready for an all-out war with the Liao State.

Therefore, Yang Yi's original intention in the Battle of Rongcheng was still to promote peace.

If the Liao State is hurt and scared first, the next peace talks will be much easier.

Sure enough, after the Great Song Dynasty extended an olive branch again, the Liao State immediately responded, and the conditions put forward were not as arrogant as before: the Song and Liao exchanged prisoners of war, the Great Song returned the 6,000 war horses captured, and the Liao State agreed to reduce the annual currency, and the specific reduction amount, and asked the Great Song Dynasty to send envoys to Shangjing to discuss.

Prisoners of war can be exchanged, and there is no way to return the war horse, which Yang Yi directly pushed back, and the Liao State had no choice but to give up, but insisted on letting the Great Song Dynasty send envoys to Shangjing to negotiate, and to die to save a little face of the great power, which Yang Yi originally disagreed, as a defeated country, the Liao State should have sent someone to Tokyo to talk, why let the Great Song send someone to go?

But for some reason, Tokyo agreed, and asked Yang Yi to go to Beijing in person to negotiate, and the bottom line for Yang Yi to negotiate peace talks was to reduce at least 50,000 yuan of coins.

This made Yang Yi a little depressed, this cold day, Liaodong is not fun at all, damn it, we are the winners, why let us drive thousands of miles?

If you are unhappy, Zhao Xu's holy decree has been issued, and Yang Yi has no choice but to set off for Beijing.

As soon as he entered the Liao realm, the Liao State immediately sent five hundred elite soldiers to accompany him, saying that it was protection or surveillance, and he would never abandon Yang Yi's ninety-eight horsemen!

"Qing Niang, is it cold?" In the fur-covered carriage, Yang Yi helped Li Qing tighten the mink fur on her body, and the fire fox hat couldn't hide her pale face, which made Yang Yi feel a little heartbroken.

Qing Niang shook her head and didn't speak, stretched out her hand to move the stove closer to Yang Yi, looked at him silently for a while, and then lowered her head.

Li Gefei was posthumously presented as a doctor of Guanglu by the imperial court, but this could not make up for the lack of Qingniang's spirit, the little girl became silent, even Yang Yi rarely heard her speak for a while, and her bright eyes also lost their luster and became dull and godless, which is why Yang Yi insisted on taking her north, I hope that the vast world of Liaodong can give her some comfort to her soul.

The white snowflakes outside the window were flying obliquely, the world was vast, and the car was not going fast, at this time Li Qingzhao suddenly said: "Brother Yang, I want to ride a horse!" ”

Yang Yi looked at the guards in snowy uniforms, then looked at Qing Niang's pale cheeks, shook his head and said, "Qing Niang, now the wind and snow are too big, when the weather is clear, will the eldest brother take you on a horse again?" ”

She was silent again, her gloomy eyelids drooped, and Yang Yi's heart softened for a while, and she almost agreed to her.

"Qing Niang, let me tell you a story! One day, a fox came to a vineyard and found bunches of ripe grapes hanging from the branches, and the red and purple fruits exuded an attractive fragrance, and the fox was salivating, but the orchard was surrounded by a fence, leaving only a small drain;

The body of the fox is too big, tried several times, from the drain is almost to climb in, the drain is made of stones, and it can't be opened, this can make the greedy fox anxious, Qing Niang, guess what, what did this fox do in the end? Can it eat the grapes in the garden? ”

Although Li Qingzhao still didn't speak, her head was raised, and her eyes looked at him with a hint of expectation, obviously, Yang Yi's story aroused her curiosity.

So the fox went without food for several days, and starved himself to a great extent, so that at last he could crawl through the drain into the orchard, and enjoy the delicious grapes in it;

He ate in the orchard for several days, and then he got fat again, and when the owner of the orchard would come into the orchard at any time to harvest the grapes, the fox had to starve for several days before he managed to escape from the orchard.

When most people listen to this story, they will laugh at the fox for being smart but being clever and mistaken, when he leaves the park, he is thinner than before entering the park, and he is busy working in vain, Qing Niang, what about you? What do you think of this fox? ”

Qing Niang thought for a moment, raised her head and asked softly, "What does Brother Yang think?" ”

"Qing Niang, in fact, the ending of life is the same, the key is the process of life, the fox is hungry or not, after all, it has enjoyed the deliciousness of grapes, this is the most important thing, it is better than not knowing what the taste of grapes is for a lifetime.

Qing Niang, your father and mother sacrificed, but in the moment before the sacrifice, they exuded an infinitely gorgeous human brilliance, that admirable temperament, glorious for thousands of years, their lives may be short, but the depth and thickness of life are incomparable to people who have worked all their lives. The people of Ansu will not forget who would rather die than give in when the city was in danger; The court will not forget, who defended the dignity of the Great Song Dynasty with his life, Qing Niang, do you understand? ”

"Brother Yang!" After hearing this, Qing Niang threw herself into his arms and cried bitterly, her petite body trembled slightly, giving people the feeling of being weak, Yang Yi stroked her fragrant shoulder, let him cry to death, and finally fell asleep.

After arriving in Youzhou, Yang Yi stayed in Youzhou for half a day on the grounds that he was tired from the journey, and took Qing Niang all over the city to enjoy the fun, in addition to the Han people, there were also Khitan, Murwei, and Uighur people, mixed with exotic customs different from the Central Plains.

After Yang Yi's enlightenment and meticulous care these days, the little girl has become much more cheerful, and her eyes have regained some luster.

Perhaps the distant scenery itself is a good medicine for healing spiritual wounds.

Youzhou to Yang Yi feels that it is complicated but not flashy, there are a lot of people, shoulder to shoulder, but the people's livelihood is very difficult, the goods in the market are far less abundant than the Great Song Dynasty Tokyo and other big cities, the poor people who do not cover their bodies on the street abound, and those Khitan nobles of the fresh clothes and angry horses form a strong contrast, a bucket of rice is more expensive than Tokyo thirty Wen, which is caused by the famine of the Liao State over the years, knowing this, Yang Yi has more confidence in the negotiation.

When I came down from a teahouse, a Uighur on the side of the street held a birdcage with a red head and neck, an egg-yellow belly, and a wings that gradually deepened from light blue to emerald green. Sell the birds! ”

Yang Yi couldn't help but laugh when he heard it, this parrot is really beautiful, but it's a little stupid, it's you who sells it, and you keep screaming! really responded to that sentence: I was sold and I still helped to drink!

Yang Yi found that Qing Niang couldn't take her eyes off it, her eyes were shining, and a smile appeared on her face unconsciously, so she asked, "Qing Niang, do you like it?" ”

Qing Niang immediately nodded her little head, and her bright eyes were a little expectant.

"Qing Niang, it's yours!"

"Really? Thank you, Brother Yang! Thank you, Brother Yang! ”

Yang Yi smiled brightly, and spent seventy times to buy the parrot from the Uighurs, who also gave them some tips for training parrots.

Yang Yi talked to her, and the parrot kept calling 'Qing Niang Qing Niang', making the little girl giggle, the sun was shining for a while, the ice and snow melted, and the city was full of spring and brightness, these seventy times were too worth it!

"Qing Niang, in the future, I will take you on a trip to the south and the north, do you say okay?"

"Good! Brother Yang is not allowed to deceive people! ”

"Of course, but I have a request, you have to record what you see and hear in various places, including your own thoughts and thoughts, and compile a book, I will help you think of the title, it is called "Qing Niang Wandering"! Hahaha......"

The little girl thought about it for a moment, and then happily accepted the task.

The next day continued to the north, Qing Niang changed into a men's dress, dressed in pink carving, Yang Yi protected her in front of the saddle, galloped on the horse, the snow was covered in the mountains and fields, the war horse passed by, and the snowflakes were raised like poplar flowers......

"Qing Niang, if you want to fly, spread your wings!"

"But Brother Yang, I don't have wings!"

"You have! As long as you believe, you have! Open it, and it will take your mind to the sky! ”

"Brother Yang, I understand, thank you!" After Qing Niang finished speaking, she closed her eyes, opened her arms, and let the oncoming wind blow her clothes, and the war horse flew up the mountain, as if rushing straight to the clouds.

When she came to the Great Wall, Yang Yi took her to climb the Great Wall again, looking around, the snowy sky was high and vast, the wind was flying and the clouds were rolling, the horses were galloping, and the gloom in the corner of Qing Niang's eyes no longer existed, she asked Yang Yi to help her stand on the city plate, looking around at the top of the high, shouting to her heart's content, and Qingyue's voice echoed endlessly between the peaks and ravines.

Seeing that she really got rid of the shadow of her parents' departure, Yang Yi was sincerely happy, full of pride for a while, and recited loudly: "The scenery of the northern country, thousands of miles of ice, thousands of miles of snow." Looking at the inside and outside of the Great Wall, only the remaining recklessness, the big river up and down, suddenly lost surging, the mountain dance silver snake, the original Chi wax elephant, want to compare with the heavenly public test. It must be sunny, wrapped in red makeup, and it is extraordinarily enchanting. ”

"Brother Yang, it's really a rare masterpiece, go on!" Qingniang's face was flushed, and she was excited to hear it, urging continuously.

"Qing Niang! As usual, you will pick up the second half of the que! ”

"No, I want to listen to Brother Yang!"

"Uh, well! **, leading countless heroes to bend their waists and cherish Qin...... Ouch, my stomach hurts! No, no, eat something bad! ”

"Giggles! Brother Yang is cheating! Brother Yang is playing tricks on ......"
