Zhang Hao patiently fought with the Great Song Dynasty Rite Department's Shangshu Ma to expand the scriptures and classics, hoping to lower the conditions. But how could this guy, who had been bullied by the Jurchens back then, forget the humiliation of the year, refused to back down a step, and his words were very intense, and he turned over and sang happily, and replied with only one sentence: 'Promise, if you don't agree, wait for the city to break!'" Zhang Hao was also helpless about this, this sentence was the most spoken by the Jurchens back then, but today it was his turn to listen but it was extremely harsh.

After talking for several days, Zhang Hao was worn out and the Great Song side still refused to lower the conditions, and he let go of the arrogance of wanting to kill the Great Song Dynasty in a fit of anger. Unexpectedly, he was caught by the Song people and drove the delegation he led out of the palace, and even the war horses were confiscated, and they walked back for more than ten miles, and said that the Jin Kingdom would be replaced, otherwise there would be no need to talk. On the same day, troops were also sent to demonstrate under the city, shooting at the defenders at the head of the city, killing and wounding many people.

Originally, things like paying New Year's coins were acceptable to Wan Yan Yan, and he also had this kind of psychological preparation, whoever let himself not be able to beat others, of course, had to pay some price for failure. Regarding the cession of land, although he felt that the Song people's sword was a little fast, and if the Huanglong Mansion was lost, the Song army could cross the river at any time to force the Beijing division, but he thought that as long as he gave more money, he would redeem Jeju back, which was similar to Zhao Huan back then.

But for the article of cutting off the emperor's title to Song Chengchen, Wan Yan really couldn't accept it. I think that the Dajin Kingdom was also as imposing as a rainbow, and it only took more than ten years to defeat the Liao State and abolish its monarch. And the Great Song Dynasty was also a defeated general under his own hands, although he fell short in the end, but he also showed off his Beijing division. Captured two of its emperors, even if now the fallen Phoenix. You can't bow down to the chicken, and if that happens, you might as well kill yourself.

"陛xià. The Song people were too rude, and these demands were unacceptable, so they should stop the peace talks and go all out to prepare for war. Zhang Hao said angrily.

At this moment, the Song army of 200,000 besieged the city, the news from all over the country was cut off, and the grain and grass were difficult to last, once the peace was stopped, the Song army would attack the city in a big way. It will be a catastrophe! Wanyan Zongxiong said.

"Hmph, it's too much, right?" Cai Songnian, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, said, "Although the Song army is heavy, Zhao Er is long in the countryside, contaminated with the habits of businessmen, and his people are greedy and love money. Don't fall for their tricks. ”

"The ministers of Taifu do not dare to agree, and they must not agree to his conditions lightly, but should return the color to make them understand that our Dajin Kingdom is by no means easy to bully." Cao Wangzhi, the servant of the ministry, said. He was a vassal of the Song Dynasty, and he was also a survivor of the assassination of the Great Song Dynasty's 'hoe rape and punishment', so he naturally knew what would happen to him once he surrendered. Naturally, it did its best to prevent peace talks.

"Your Majesty, today the Song army is showing off its martial arts under the northern city. He shot and killed more than a dozen of our defenders one after another, but Taifu did not allow the soldiers to shoot back an arrow. Let them retreat in peace, and cause an uproar among the armies. His words were angry, and he was obviously dissatisfied with what Wanyan Zongxiong had done.

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that this is the critical moment of the peace negotiation, so that the soldiers must not send a shot in vain, and they are afraid of the peace, and they really have no intention of cowardly war." Wanyan Zongxiong saw that everyone was accusing him, he knew that although the emperor looked normal now, he could also have a seizure at any time, and he quickly defended himself when he saw that the emperor's face was not good.

"Well, I also think that now is the critical period of peace talks, and I can't give up lightly." Wan Yan understood that now King Qin's army might be coming, and it was not good for him to start a war now, and he should use the peace negotiation to delay time.

"The minister thinks that what His Majesty said is extremely true, and he should continue to deal with the Song people to wait for the opportunity." Seeing that the two factions were arguing, Taishi Wushu expressed his understanding of Zongxiong's approach and appeased the impatience of the main battler.

"What the Taishi said is exactly what I intended, and the Song people Yaowu intended to force us to comply. Now that the Mid-Autumn Festival is approaching, I have prepared some gifts for the Song people to restart the peace talks! Wan Yan made a closing statement and ordered the peace talks to continue......

The next day, a team came out of the city of Huining, led by Taifu Wanyan Zongxiong, accompanied by more than 20 carts full of gold, silver, treasures, wine and meat, to the place where the Great Song Emperor was driving, and went to the army. Zongxiong joined the army since he was a child like the early Jurchen men, he participated in the entire battle of Liao, made great contributions, and was awarded the hereditary ten thousand households by Taizu, so he was naturally no stranger to the military.

After entering the camp of the Song army, he saw that everything was neat and orderly, and it was difficult to even see horse manure on the way. And the morale of the generals is high, the clothes and armor are new, all of them are full of red light, the war horses under the seat are also fat and strong, and the group is even more frightened when passing through the baggage camp, which is only as many as a million stones, and there is also a sad cry when the cattle and sheep are slaughtered, obviously they are not short of food, the supply of materials is normal, and very rich.

Zongxiong also found that many low earthen nests were built in the Song camp, this Wanyan Zongxiong is not a stranger, looking at the outside, in fact, it is spacious inside, and the Jurchens lived here in the early years, in order to avoid the wind and snow, and spend the long winter. This shows that the Song army is ready for the winter, and it is by no means as they imagined that they will withdraw when the cold winter comes, indicating that they will never leave until they reach their goal.

What happened next embarrassed Zongxiong even more, they wanted to come to give gifts, and it was the Taifu and Zuo Xiang of Dajin Kingdom who were dispatched, and they also led Taishang Shu to save trouble, and their status can be compared with the Zai of the Great Song Dynasty, so Zhao Er also has to meet him, and he also wants to take the opportunity to talk to him about peace talks, even if it is good to meet and give face. But when the gift list and congratulatory letter were sent in, not to mention Zhao Er's summons, he didn't even accompany a scholar or a waiter, and only sent an attendant to receive the gift.

And the chamberlain was still picky about the gifts sent by Jin Guo, sneered and didn't say anything, and only glanced at the superb silver rat skin robe they gave to Zhao Er, then pinched his nose and threw it aside, saying that there was a smell on it, and the emperor would never wear it; He sneered at the more than a dozen carts of gold and silver sent to them, saying that the gold country was also a big country, and even those small countries in Persia could not compare, and the gold and silver sent by people were all counted by ships, and the gold sent by Seljuk alone was 2 million taels last year.

People had to bow their heads under the eaves, and the grand master of a country was trained by an inner servant of the Southern Dynasty to blush for a while, but he still had to accompany the smile and beg him to pass on the message to the emperor, which may only be experienced by Zongxiong. In the end, maybe the silver played a role, maybe Zhao Er felt the need to talk about it and promised to continue the peace talks, but he had to send important ministers or princes to the Song camp as hostages, and he had to protect the safety of the Song envoys who entered the city. At this point, Zongxiong finally breathed a sigh of relief, and finally fulfilled his mission, and sought the opportunity to continue the peace talks, saying that he would send hostages out of the city immediately after receiving the emperor's favor......

Huining City had a bleak Mid-Autumn Festival, and everyone thought that they had to continue negotiations at this time, so they had to take the prince as a hostage. This kind of thing is the first time after Jin Jianguo, which makes everyone feel extremely humiliated, in the past, they all showed off their might and asked other people to be hostages, and now they have ended up in this situation.

The emperor's brothers who were named princes have all been killed, and the princes of the Taizong family have also been killed in the previous civil strife, and they can only be selected from the people who are still alive in the Taizu line. In the end, it was decided to send King Ji Wanyan Xi Nilie as a hostage, he was the eleventh son of Aguta, and he didn't do anything, and he was always idle at home, just because he was still young among the living princes, and his health was good, and he could withstand the toss.

On 16 August, Wan Yan decided to personally send King Ji Wan Yan Xi Nilie out of the city as a hostage, and as soon as they drove out of the imperial city, they found that both sides of the street were already full of soldiers and civilians. Now that the Song people are about to enter the city, the court is still dreaming of stupid peace and happiness, the soldiers and the people can't help but be excited, the whole city is noisy and chaotic, seeing the car car appear, the soldiers and civilians have knelt on the side of the road, looking at it.

Wan Yan was deeply moved by this scene, the country was broken like this, and he made a mess of the country again, but the soldiers and the people still respected and loved him, he felt more and more ashamed and guilty, and hurriedly got out of the car and asked all the soldiers and people not to kneel and worship, all stand up, and the officials and guards who accompanied the car were ready to put up a roof and shade for the emperor, he categorically refused to say, "The army is exposed, what use do I do?" ”

Caring for his subjects and the people is not just words, there must be practical actions at critical moments, everyone has flocked to Wan Yan's side, and even a few comrades inadvertently touched his clothes, and they didn't care. In fact, the requirements of the small people of Dousheng are not high, as long as they have three meals a day, the peace of the family and the country feels very happy, seeing the emperor so naturally moved, the soldiers and people everywhere they pass are cheering long live, willing to die in battle without hatred!

Regarding the strong desire of the soldiers to seek war, Wan Yan expressed his understanding, saying that the Song people were duplicitous, and he would not be stupid enough to naively believe the lies of the Song people, and only hoped that the vast number of soldiers and civilians in the city would continue to increase their vigilance and strengthen their defense. But the matter of peace cannot be killed with a stick, I hope to wait until King Ji goes out of the city to see the reaction of the Song people, if they still refuse to retreat, then they will fight to the death with everyone to the end, and live and die with the city!

Wan Yan Yan was really good at the moment, not only came to the scene to quell an internal commotion and riot that might have led to zhì, but also greatly boosted the morale of the army and the people. He climbed the city tower with the army, stared at the Song Dynasty army outside the city, and watched King Ji go out of the city. And King Ji finished his face and Xi Nilie's expression was not bad, bidding farewell to the emperor and the people who saw him off, singing a song and going out of the city to the Song camp without hesitation. But the Song army did not retreat, and was still deploying troops...... (To be continued......)
