The Struggle of the Reborn Prince

Zhang Hao was patient in the Song camp and Ma Kuo, the Minister of Rites of the Song Dynasty, citing classics and reasoning, hoping to reduce the conditions. But how could this guy who had been bullied by Jurchens forget the humiliation he had back then and never give in.

The words were very intense, and the serfs sang happily. The only thing they replied was that "It's okay to agree, but if you don't agree, just wait for the city to break out!" Zhang Hao was helpless about this. This sentence was once

The Jurchens said the most in the past, but today it was my turn to listen to it, which was particularly harsh.

After talking for several days, Zhang Hao was worn out and the Song Dynasty still refused to lower the conditions. He was angry and said a harsh word to kill the Song Dynasty. Unexpectedly, the Song people caught him and told him.

The mission led by the leader drove out of the palace, even confiscated the horses. They asked them to go back for more than ten miles, and told the Jin Kingdom to replace them, otherwise they would be exempted from a negotiation. On that day, they also sent troops to demonstrate under the city and defended the city.

Shooting, killing and injuring many people.

Wanyan Tan also felt it was acceptable to pay annual monies, and he also had this kind of mental preparation. Whoever could not beat others would have to pay some price for failure. Although he felt that the Song Rendao was ceased.

It was a bit fast. If the loss of Huanglong Mansion, the Song army could cross the river and force the capital at any time. However, he thought that as long as he gave more money to redeem Jeju, this idea was similar to Zhao Huan back then.

But Wanyan Dan couldn't accept the idea of ​​cutting off the imperial title and claiming to be a minister to Song. The Great Jin Kingdom was once very imposing. It took only ten years to defeat the Liao Kingdom and abolish its king.

The Song Dynasty was once a defeated general under his command. Although he failed in the end, he also fought in the capital and captured two of his emperors. Even if he was now a phoenix, he could not kneel down to the chicken. If that were the case, it would be better to commit suicide.

"Your Majesty, the Song people are too rude. I think these requests cannot be accepted. We should stop the peace and prepare for the war with all our might." Zhang Hao said angrily at the court.

"Your Majesty. I think the peace talks cannot be terminated. At this moment, the Song army besieged 200,000 people, and news from various places is cut off, and food and grass are difficult to last. Once the peace talks stop, the Song army will attack the city in large numbers, which will lead to a catastrophe!" Wanyan Zongxiong said, "

.

"Hmph, is the Taifu's words too much?" Cai Songnian, Minister of Rites, stepped out and said, "Although the Song army is heavy, Zhao Er is good at the countryside, is infected with the habits of merchants, and he is greedy and loves money. It is his nature to put forward such harsh conditions.

For this reason, using troops is just to intimidate our court. It is true that it is to squeeze money, and you must not hit the trick."

"The ministers who are not willing to agree with what the Grand Tutor said. They must not agree with their conditions easily, but should return them to their colors so that they can understand that our Great Jin Kingdom is definitely not easy to bully." Cao Wangzhi, the Minister of Personnel, said. He was a surrendered minister of the Song Dynasty.

, also the survivor of the assassination of the Song Dynasty, "Eliminating the Traitor and Punishing the Rebellion". Naturally, he knew what would happen if he asked to surrender himself. Naturally, he tried his best to stop the peace talks.

"Your Majesty, today the Song army was in the northern city and shot and killed more than a dozen soldiers guarding the city one after another, but the Taifu did not allow the soldiers to shoot a arrow, so that they could retreat safely, causing the troops to be uproar."

Zhongyi made a name for himself, and his words were angry, and he was obviously dissatisfied with Wanyan Zongxiong's actions.

"Your Majesty, I think that this is the critical moment of peace talks. I will not let the soldiers do nothing, for fear of ruining the peace. There is no intention of being afraid of fighting." Wanyan Zongxiong saw everyone accusing him, and he knew that the emperor is now.

Although it seems normal, it may also occur at any time. Seeing the emperor's bad expression, he quickly defended himself.

"Well, I also think that now is a critical period of peace talks and cannot be easily abandoned." Wanyan Tan understood that the king-stricken army might be coming now, and it is not good for him to start a war now, so he should use peace talks to delay time.

"I think what Your Majesty said is so much that we should continue to deal with the people of Song to wait for the opportunity." Seeing that the two factions were arguing, Taishi Wushu expressed his understanding of Zong Xiong's approach and also appeased the impatience of the warriors.

"What the Grand Master said is exactly my original intention. The Song people Yaowu intention was to force us to submit. As the Mid-Autumn Festival is approaching, I have prepared some gifts to the Song people in order to restart the peace talks!" Wanyan Tan made a statement to close the case.

Order to continue the peace talks...

The next day, a team came out of Huining City, led by the Taifu Wanyan Zongxiong, and more than 20 large carts loaded with gold, silver, treasures and wine were accompanied by them to the place where the Emperor of the Song Dynasty was driving, and went to reward the army.

.Zongxiong joined the army like an early Jurchen man since childhood. He participated in the entire battle against Liao and made great contributions. He was awarded the title of the hereditary household by Taizu, so he was naturally no stranger to the military.

After entering the Song army camp, he saw that there were neat rules everywhere, and even horse manure was hard to see on the way. The morale of the soldiers he encountered was high, his clothes and armor were fresh, and his face was red. The war horses under him were also fat and strong.

People were even more shocked when passing through the baggage camp. All they saw were as many as one million stones, and there were also wails of cattle and sheep when they were slaughtered. Obviously, they were not afraid of food and supplies were normal.

, and very rich.

Zongxiong also discovered that many low soil nests were built in the Song camp. Wanyan Zongxiong was not unfamiliar with it. It looked so ugly outside, but it was actually spacious inside. In the early years, the Jurchens lived here to shelter from the wind and snow and survive the long winter.

.This shows that the Song army is ready for winter, and it is not like they imagined that they will withdraw their troops when the cold winter comes, which means that they will never leave until they achieve their goal.

What happened next embarrassed Zong Xiong even more. They wanted to give gifts, but they were dispatched to the Grand Jin Kingdom's Taifu, the left prime minister, and also the Shangtai Shangshu. Their status was comparable to that of the Grand Song Dynasty. Why did Zhao Er also do it?

He had to meet him, and he also wanted to take the opportunity to talk about peace talks with him, even if he met him, he would be good to give him face. But when the gift list and congratulations were sent in, let alone Zhao Er summoned him, even the Minister of the Shangshu and the Minister of the Secretariat

There was no one with him, and only an eunuch was sent to receive gifts.

The eunuch was picky about the gifts sent by the Jin Kingdom, and sarcastically said that he had sarcasticated the best silver rat leather robe they gave to Zhao Er. He only glanced at the top, pinched his nose and threw it aside.

There was a smell on it, and the emperor would never wear it. He even sneered at the dozen cars of gold and silver he sent, saying that the Jin Kingdom was a great country, and even the small countries in Persia were not as good as those sent by others.

According to the boat, the gold sent by Seljuk alone last year was 2 million taels, but they only made them pay millions of monies of annual monies and were still whining, and they didn't have the pleasure of having fun.

The man had to bow his head under the eaves. The grand tutor of a country was scolded by an eunuch in the Southern Dynasty and blushed and white, but he still had to laugh and put silver in a silence and beg him to pass the message to the emperor. Only Zong Xiong could understand the taste.

Maybe it was the money that played a role, maybe Zhao Er felt that it was necessary to continue the negotiation and agreed to continue the peace talks, but he wanted to send important officials or princes to the Song camp as a magistrate, and he had to protect the safety of the Song envoy who entered the city. At this point, Zong Xiong finally breathed a sigh of relief.

At least he fulfilled his mission and sought the opportunity to continue peace talks. He said that after receiving the emperor's approval, he immediately sent hostages out of the city...

Huining City had a Mid-Autumn Festival with a bleak chiffon. Everyone thought that negotiations would continue at this time, so that the prince would be the subject. This was the first time since the Jin Dynasty founded, and it made everyone feel extremely humiliated. In the past, they were all

Those who show off their power and demand that other people be hostages have now come to this point.

The emperor's brothers who were named princes have been killed, and the princes of Taizong and his ranks have been killed in previous civil strife. They can only choose from the people who are still alive in Taizu. Finally, they decided to send King Ji.

Wanyan is a genius. He is the eleven sons of Aguda. He has no choice but to be idle at home, just because he is still young and in good health among all the living princes. He can withstand the troubles.

On August 16, Wanyan Dan decided to send King Ji Wanyan Xi Nilie out of the city as a charity. As soon as their car drove out of the imperial city, they found that the streets were filled with soldiers and civilians. Now the Song people are about to enter the city.

The court was still having a stupid dream of peace talks. The soldiers and the people were in a state of excitement. The whole city was noisy and chaotic. Seeing the carriage appear, the soldiers and civilians knelt on the side of the road and looked at them.

Wanyan Tan was deeply moved by this scene. The country was ruined so much, and he made the country a mess. But the soldiers and the people still respected and loved him. He felt more ashamed and guilty. He hurriedly got out of the car and asked all the soldiers and the people not to kneel down.

All the officials and guards were preparing to cover the emperor with their heads. He flatly refused to say, "Why am I using this when the army is exposed?"

The people who care for themselves are not just talking, but they must take practical actions at critical moments. Everyone has been to Wanyan Tan, and some comrades even accidentally touch his clothes, but they don’t care at all.

The people of Dousheng are not very demanding. As long as they eat three meals a day, they will feel very happy when the family and country are safe. Seeing the emperor so naturally, they are extremely moved. Wherever they pass, the soldiers and the people cheered long live, and they wished to die in battle without anything.

hatred!

Wanyan Tan expressed his understanding of the soldiers' strong desire for war*, saying that the Song people are double-faced, and he would not be so stupid that he believed the Song people's lies in naiveness. He only hoped that the vast number of soldiers and civilians in the city would continue to be vigilant and strengthen defense. But the matter of peace talks is discussed

We can't be beaten to death with one stick. I hope to wait until King Ji leaves the city and see the reaction of the Song people. If they still refuse to withdraw their troops, then they will fight to the end with everyone and live and die with the city!

Wanyan Tan performed well at this moment. Not only did he personally come to the scene to calm down the possible internal cowards and riots, but he also greatly encouraged the morale of the military and civilians. He climbed the city tower with the army and stared at the Song Dynasty outside the city.

The army watched King Ji leave the city. King Ji Wanyan and Xi Nilie performed well. They bid farewell to the emperor and the people who saw him off, and sang a song and went out of the city to the Song camp without hesitation. However, the Song army did not retreat and was still mobilizing troops.

Send generals… (To be continued)
