I became the son of Renzong

Chapter 550 The purpose is never single
Armistice negotiations, border negotiations, re-signing of the alliance... things finally came as expected by Guochao.

This time, Xiao Zhuoer didn't hide any more. After receiving the edict from the Daliao court, he quickly submitted the letter of credence to the Song court... He really didn't want to stay in Bianliang anymore.

This is no longer the matter of an official like Xiao Zhuoer. As long as Song Guo agrees, he can leave Bianliang, and there is no need to worry about it every day.As for going back to Daliao... Let's talk about it when we go back, Daliao's chess pieces in the court of the Song Dynasty were wiped out, and Xiao Zhuoer couldn't blame him.

It can't be said that it is a chess piece of Daliao. It should be said that it is certain that it is close to Daliao.From then on, it's gone. In the court hall of the Song Dynasty, no one favored Daliao anymore. Bianliang's chants will be circulated in Shangjing in a short time, not to mention the gunpowder that His Majesty the Daliao Emperor never forgets.

This is the rhythm of a complete break!The friendly neighborly relations that have lasted for decades and nearly a hundred years have completely dropped to freezing point because of the Battle of Hedong.

In the past, there would have been no war at all, because as long as Daliao sent envoys, Song would compromise... They were afraid of Daliao and war.

The current state of Song is not what it used to be. It is no longer that benevolent king, and the princes are all hardliners like Fu Bi and Han Qi.

It has changed, completely changed, the situation of Song Liao has changed.

In fact, over the years, there have been clues.It became more and more difficult to fight Caogu, and often encountered the Song army patrolling the border, and the victory and defeat also changed.

It's a pity that the emperor of Daliao couldn't see it, and no one in the Daliao court said anything.Yelu Yixin only considers whether he is loyal to him personally, and whether it is beneficial to Yelu Yixin...

It's time to go back, maybe after he goes back, Xiao Zhuoer will no longer have the opportunity to speak out in the court, and he will be beaten to the end... After all, as an envoy, he didn't fight for any benefit for Daliao, but just let Daliao blindly back down.

Everything this time needs to be explained to His Majesty the Daliao Emperor.Yeluqi was captured, all the damned generals died in battle, and Xiao Zhuoer was the only one who was responsible for resisting thunder.He was sure that his own crime had been agreed upon before he went back.

Whether it is Yelu Yixin or the emperor of Daliao, they all need to find an excuse for this defeat.Xixia should be able to share a large part of the responsibility, and the rest belongs to Xiao Zhuoer...~Because, His Majesty the Daliao Emperor was right, and the Prime Minister Yelu Yixin could not be wrong either.

Go back, go back completely.

Xiao Zhuoer set off with Song Guo's letter of credence.

Song Guo promised to negotiate a truce...

"An inch of land must be fought for, and an inch of land must not be surrendered!" This is the principle Zhao Xi gave to the negotiating team.

"Every inch of land was laid down by soldiers with their blood and lives. Now that it has been recovered, there is no reason to return it. Nothing is more important than keeping the land intact!"

"The soldiers use force to bully them, and the negotiators should be aware of the reason. How to rectify the names of the regions established by the soldiers is the task of the negotiating team."

Da Song's negotiating team is led by Han Qi... Strictly speaking, this is the first so-called boundary line division.The Chanyuan Alliance did not have a specific boundary line at the beginning.

"Officials, how do you care about the captive?"

The abolition of the old coin is certain, and the principle of the boundary line has also been set, but there are still nearly [-] captives.

We never encountered this situation in the early years. Even if there were, they were also prisoners of Beiliao, but we never returned them.

Han people, in a certain sense, are very popular in Beiliao... The nobles in Beiliao are proud of enslaving Han people.

"To the north of Yanmen Pass on Hedong Road, the track needs to be laid. The coolies who broke the rocks can use the captives... However, if the Beiliao is willing to exchange it, it can be considered."

"As for how to exchange it, you can make up your mind. It seems that there is nothing we want in Beiliao except war horses. You can open your mind. It's nearly [-]. It can't win the battle, and the court will still lose money, right?"

"Yanmenguan was destroyed, Daizhou was destroyed, and Dingxiang and Xin counties were also turned into ruins. These are all caused by the war. The fault is on the other side...or there is no right or wrong in war, there is only victory or defeat. If you lose the war, you should be right. bear all the losses of the war."

"In addition, Minister Wen, in order to cooperate with Minister Han's negotiations, let's slowly transfer the 50 useless people in Gyeonggi Province to the north, and mobilize them with great fanfare!"

It is indeed easy to defeat, Zhao Xi doesn't speak like a king, he is a bit shameless...

"Your Majesty, since the letter of going abroad has agreed to the truce negotiations, it may be inappropriate for the country to transfer troops again. With the current situation, there will be no more wars. It is a waste of money and food to mobilize these forbidden troops to and fro."

The way of sages and sages is deeply rooted in the hearts of literati, especially this kind of big event that is put on the table and must be recorded in the annals of history.Fu Bi didn't want the court to backtrack, which would be detrimental to the dynasty's good reputation in history books.

"Minister Fu, gentlemen, the premise of signing and abiding by the covenant is that the power is evenly matched. As far as the Tanyuan Covenant is concerned, it is not wrong to say that the country pays money and food for peace, and time for development. But it is reflected in the covenant itself. Not equal, because Beiliao was strong at that time."

"Similarly, the covenant is actually just a rhetoric, just because both sides need this rhetoric. If the 50 imperial troops in Song Dynasty are new troops, do we need the covenant at this time?"

"To put it bluntly, signing the covenant is just a temporary practice. After signing the Tanyuan Covenant, didn't Beiliao raise the old coin later? Isn't it the same to attack Hedong now?"

"If our Great Song Dynasty is defeated this time, is it possible that the imperial court can use the Tanyuan Alliance to negotiate with Beiliao? Not to mention Xixia. While signing the alliance agreement, it will continue to harass."

"The degree of their education is different from that of the state. When communicating with scholars, they should talk about poetry and prose. When having a banquet with a charming lady, they should talk about wind and snow. Chatting with old farmers is only about farming. Therefore, when dealing with Liao and Xia people, Guo Dynasty Don't stick to sages, don't tie your hands and feet."

"It's still before the armistice, and the Northern Liao Dynasty has decided to negotiate. Isn't it the same as sending [-] troops at the border of Hebei Province? What's the matter with the increase of troops?"

"As for spending money and food... on this point, the victorious country should have the initiative. It depends on the outcome of the negotiations between Prime Minister Han."

"However, I estimate that in order to appease the palace guards and Oruduo of various families in Beiliao, the captives should be exchanged back... But the East Road needs labor and Dingkou..."

"Your Majesty, but 50 forbidden troops have been transferred to civilians?"

The purpose of officials has never been single.Perhaps the abolition of the 50 banned troops is the ultimate goal of the officials.Fu Bi thought so.

"Officials, filling the East Road with 50 imperial troops at one time is a serious matter, and it cannot be done without careful planning. Please think twice, Your Majesty!"

Whether it is Yanmenguan Daizhou area, or Yunzhou, Shuozhou, Huanzhou, and Yingzhou, these are all places of bitter cold. How can the imperial army, who was raised and abandoned by Bianliang's drunken money fans, endure the life of that bitter cold place.

50!If you are not careful, it is likely to be a military disaster or civil strife that is more terrifying than war.

Not only Fu Bi and Han Qi, but also Han Jiang and Lu Gongbi also felt that the official's matter was abrupt.

"Transferring to civilians is a matter for the future. Slowly mobilize and use prestige is conducive to negotiations."
