At the end of Song Dynasty: I want to be the master of ZTE

Chapter 226 No basis for trust
In Majiaji, Meng Qi looked at the familiar scenery and was filled with emotion.

I thought about how I was captured and exchanged and left here, and now I was ordered to come to negotiate peace. I felt so complicated that I really didn’t know where to start.

I remember when Xiangyang surrendered, the army was overwhelming. Although the two kings of the Song Dynasty fled south, the Yuan army did not take it seriously.

How can you two children defy heaven?

But I didn't expect that the Song Dynasty had thunder first and artillery second. It would win every time. If it weren't for the geographical advantage of Hanzhong, Sichuan, I'm afraid all the 40 years of hard work in conquering the Song Dynasty would be in vain.

Now, they have crossed the sea and occupied two states in Shandong, forcing Yuanting to take the initiative to negotiate peace.

The world is changing so fast that it is dizzying to see.

It can only be said that the young emperor of the Song Dynasty is indeed a monster. Not only a monster, but his hostility is even more obvious.

He originally planned to go to Chengtian Mansion, but the Song Dynasty asked Kublai Khan to call himself king on the grounds that there was no day in the sky.

This is naturally impossible.

Although taking the initiative to seek peace is an expedient measure, it is already a loss of face, and it is impossible to take the imperial title. Besides, the current situation has not reached that point.

After the envoys from both sides communicated for a while, they finally decided to hold a meeting at Ma's house.

This place is between the two armies, and there are occasional small-scale conflicts. The people have long since fled, so there is no need to worry about outside interference.

Not a moment later, Hu Sansheng, the minister of the Ministry of Rites of the Song Dynasty and the son of the emperor, arrived.

The two sides did not hesitate, Meng Qi directly stated the conditions: "The Yuan army will withdraw from Guangxi and Yunnan, and the Song army will withdraw from Shandong. The two sides will use the current actual control area as the boundary, and they will always be friends and not betray their alliance."

"Shaoxing peace negotiation can be the boundary, otherwise we will stop talking!" Hu Sansheng was equally open and honest.

If Yuan Ting is really willing to withdraw from Sichuan and Hanzhong, the Song army is also willing to really withdraw from Shandong.

The geographical advantages of Sichuan and Shu are too great, and it is absolutely impossible to attack in the short term. If they can accept it peacefully, to be honest, Song Ting can wake up from his dreams with laughter.

"Impossible." Meng Qi flatly refused and said: "You are currently only in the land of two states. Dayuan's exchange for Yunnan is already a great sincerity. Why are you greedy?"

Hu Sansheng was not surprised and said: "It is already the end of the year. When spring comes next year, it will not only cover the two states?"

Meng Qi said: "It's just a matter of surprise, now the elite soldiers and strong generals of the Yuan Dynasty have gathered, so what if you have guns and cannons?"

"In this case, there is no use in talking more. We will see the real results on the battlefield after the spring." Hu Sansheng did not give in even a step, and he was full of confidence.

At this time, there is no saying that what is not available on the battlefield is also not available at the negotiating table, but the concept is there. The Song army has won consecutive battles. As long as the emperor can hold on, what are the ministers afraid of?
Master of high power?

The feudal states have all been sealed, and there is no such thing as a great achievement that shakes the master.

If Zhao Paopao had had the foresight to take back the two emperors and send them overseas to establish the country, and the heroes who should be honored were also granted overseas status, I am afraid that the Jin Kingdom would have been overthrown.

Meng Qi didn't say much, stood up and left.

Of course, the negotiations between the two parties have not been terminated, and the emperor's decision needs to be reported.

Such a major matter cannot be completely decided by the ministers who hold the Emperor's Day.

Half a month later, with the Chinese New Year approaching in two days, the two parties gathered again at Majiaji.

"Dayuan is willing to hand over Sichuan and Guangxi, and there is no possibility of Hanzhong being ceded!" Meng Qi set out the conditions again.

Hu San was slightly surprised.

Yuanting's conditions are really generous.

Although Sichuan is in ruins, given its geographical location, if it really returns to Song Ting's hands, the Yangtze River defense line will be stable.

As for Hanzhong not being divided, that's understandable.When the Yuan army repeatedly attacked Sichuan, they took many people captive to Hanzhong. Now that Hanzhong has recovered its vitality, Yuan Ting is reluctant to cede it.

Moreover, without the shield of Hanzhong, Guanzhong was unstable. From a defensive perspective, Hanzhong could not be ceded, so the Song court did not count on Hanzhong and only killed Sichuan.

"I need to report to the central government for its decision." Hu Sansheng replied.

Meng Qi said: "The Yuan Dynasty is full of sincerity. I hope the Song Dynasty will make an early decision in consideration of all the people in the world."

"Inevitable." Hu Sansheng turned around and quickly reported the news and got the word "talk".

Sichuan's geographical advantage is too great. If it can be recovered without bloodshed, the Yangtze River will be safe, and you can concentrate on conquering the Han River and Huai River.

The general principles were set, but the details became controversial.

According to the administrative divisions of the Song Dynasty, Jiangyou, Jiange, and Langzhong belonged to Lizhou East Road (Hanzhong Basin), and Yuan Ting was unwilling to hand over. However, these places were the gateway to Sichuan, and Song Ting also wanted to take them, so they refused.

So, the first month passed, and the two sides were still in a stalemate.

"The Song Dynasty has no sincerity!" Meng Qi accused: "The geographical division is what you did, and now you use it to talk about things. If you were sincere, why did you do this?"

"How can we control the territory of the gateway?" Hu Sansheng said: "The Tartars have no faith, how can the country not guard against them?"

"It's true that you and others started a provocation!" Meng Qi said: "According to the agreement, after the fall of the Jin Kingdom, everyone returned to their country, but you and others raised troops to invade, which is actually a breach of contract!"

Hu Sansheng sneered and said: "When the Jin Kingdom was in great power, you and others raised troops to invade. The alliance was established and the two sides did not agree on the ownership of the Central Plains. Why shouldn't the country send troops to take it? On the contrary, you and others used this as an excuse to raise troops again. In fact, it was No faith!"

This kind of thing is just what the public says, and the mother-in-law says the mother-in-law is right. There is no way to talk about it. It’s just that we can’t talk about it at the moment, so it’s better to kill some time.

The two of them were each using words and tit-for-tat, but neither could do anything to the other.

However, the two of them probably can't talk anymore.

There is no basis for trust.

Even if the contract is signed, how to implement it is another problem.

Even if both parties really perform the contract, how can they ensure that the other party does not break the contract?

No one can guarantee.

The full-scale war between Song and Meng began after Duanping failed to enter Luo, but the first confrontation was in the third year of Baoqing (1227).

At that time, when Genghis Khan was attacking Xixia, he sent two gold medals to the Sichuan Production Department of the Southern Song Dynasty to coerce the Southern Song Dynasty to surrender to Mongolia. At the same time, he sent a cavalry into the Song Dynasty to show off his force. This was the first conflict between Song Dynasty and Mongolia. World War I.

As a result, the Mongols did show off their force and saw the Lesong Kingdom pull their hips, which led to the subsequent all-out southern invasion.

In the past few years, the Song army has won consecutive battles, which has indeed subverted the impression of weak chickens, but strong enemies are even more fearful.

The two sides broke up unhappy. After Meng Qi returned to Linhuai, he was about to report today's negotiation process and suggested canceling the negotiations and preparing for war with all his strength. However, before the memorial was sent out, Yuan Ting came to envoy.

"Your Majesty has issued an order. The southerners are unfaithful and are taking advantage of the peace talks to start war again. Order the mission to turn back."

Meng Qi was startled and quickly asked for details.

At the same time, Hu Sansheng also received the news, and immediately packed his luggage and went back to Chengtian Mansion.

There is no need to talk about it anymore, because just before the Lantern Festival, the Song Navy’s navy wiped out the Yuan Army’s navy in the Bohai Bay and bombarded Zhigukou.

In this case, if Kublai Khan can still be conceited, he will not be a hero, but a bear.

The most important reason is that the Yuan army was not beaten unilaterally, but fought back and achieved some results, which made everyone in Yuan Ting see the possibility of counterattack.
