The silk scroll that Di Lie gave to Cao Ji was a peace agreement.

In this era, it is no surprise that the winner submits a letter of peace to the loser.

In the first year of Yuande (1119), the Song Xihe ruled Liu Fa's army into Xingzhou, the capital of Xia, and the heart of Lingzhou. The king of Xia, Li Ganshun, ordered King Chage of Jin to lead more than 10,000 infantry and cavalry to fight. The Xia army fought bravely and wiped out Liu Fa's entirely. In his army, the Song army suffered tens of thousands of casualties. The Xia army took advantage of the victory to capture the Song Tong'an City and marched into the Wucheng. In June of the first year of Yuande, Li Ganshun won a great victory in the battle against Song, in the name of the Liao Kingdom. When I asked for peace from the Song Dynasty, the Song Dynasty was forced to accept peace talks with Xia. Of course, the price of increasing the annual monies is indispensable.

Not to mention the Jin Kingdom. When the first southern part of the first year of Jingkang, Wanyan Zongwang's Eastern Army rushed to the city of Tokyo and failed to break through the city. The reinforcements of Song had arrived, and the Jin army was alone and could not stop it. So he proposed peace talks. .When the army was at the despair of the city, the king and minister of the Song Dynasty learned that the Jin people agreed to the peace agreement, as if they heard the sound of immortals. The gold, silver, wealth, horse materials, rice, grain, and water were sent to the Jin camp, for fear that the invaders would be hungry and thin, and they would have no strength. Withdrawal of troops. In the end, he was forced to cede Taiyuan, Zhongshan and Zhending. As for the poor kid of Qinzong, who later repented and refused to do it, that was another matter.

The peace agreement is submitted by the loser, which is a helpless begging, just as Song did to Jin before; but if the winner requests it, it is a condescending attitude. I don't want to beat you up for the time being, I pay enough price , spend money to eliminate disasters.

Di Lie's peace agreement is completely full of this kind of persuasion of "spend money to eliminate disasters".

The content of the peace agreement is roughly as follows:

First, the two armies dismissed their troops, and the Tianzhu army retreated to the Song territory; second, the Tianzhu army handed over Yinzhou to the Xia Kingdom to show sincerity of reconciliation; third, the Xia Kingdom "gives" the Tianzhu army a million qian, and Hequ Jianma Thousands of horses, yaks (the Dangxiang people raise most of them) 2,000 heads, 50,000 hu of rice, and 200 peaks of camels; 4, Tianzhu Army and Xia Kingdom set up courts outside Yinzhou City, and traded with each other; 5, Xia Army More than 4,000 prisoners were captured, and they could enter the Song Dynasty or repatriate them... and they were listed more than ten.

Cao Ji was surprised when he saw it. These conditions were not too much. In one aspect, they could even be considered discounts.

The purpose of Di Lie's battle was to shock the Xia Kingdom. Let this country that is easy to expand and take advantage of. The new neighbors that rose in the southeast of it are as difficult as the Jin Kingdom. Don't be terrified of it if you have nothing to do. , before you want to make some small moves, think about it first and see if you can withstand the anger of revenge.

The goal of the Tianzhu Army is always the Jin Kingdom. Just hit the Western Xia. There is no need to burn the war. Therefore, the Tianzhu Army retreated to the Song realm. It is an inevitable choice.

As for returning to Yinzhou, Di Lie was due to multiple considerations.

What are the benefits of the Tianzhu Army occupying Yinzhou? Occupy a salt mine? Obtain an additional stronghold for the Jinning Army? The Tianzhu Army has an optional city?

What's the disadvantage? The Jinning Army alone will definitely not be able to defend Yinzhou. For such a major border area, the Tianzhu Army will at least release a ** brigade and take away a large piece of troops. This is not over yet, and the Xia Kingdom will definitely not give up. The place where he started his family. Not to mention a monarch like Li Ganshun, even any king in the history of the Xia Kingdom could not bear the pressure of giving up the land of his ancestors' Longxing. The Tianzhu Army occupied Yinzhou in one day and went with Xia Kingdom The disputes between the two will last forever, and then maybe they will have to replenish their troops continuously. How can we concentrate on confronting the Jin Kingdom?

This is not Di Lie's speculation, there were precedents before.

In March of the eighth year of Yuande (1126), Li Ganshun took advantage of the opportunity of Jin soldiers to attack the Song Dynasty and sent troops to capture the castles built by the Song Dynasty on the Xia border. According to the Jin Dynasty's promise to Xia, he occupied Tiande, Yunnei, and Wu. The county and Baguan area in Hedong, as well as the border between the Song Dynasty, Zhenwucheng (now Yulin, Shaanxi). It also captured Xi'an Prefecture, Linzhou Jianning Village, and Huaide's army in the Song Dynasty. It took advantage of the victory to conquer Tiandu Village, besiege Lanzhou, and then plundered the troops. return.

But not long after, the Jin general Wushu sent troops to occupy Tiande, Yunnei and other states, forcing Xia State to vomit all the food they had eaten. Li Ganshun asked the Jin Dynasty. In March of the first year of Zhengde (1127), the Jin State was the first country. Demarcating the border with Xia, the Jin Kingdom assigned about thousands of miles of northern Shaanxi to Xia, as a compensation for Tiande, Yunnei and other places.

Look! The Jin Kingdom in Japan occupied the territory of Xia Kingdom, and had to find another area of ​​equal value to replace it, so as to avoid the Xia Kingdom making small moves behind the scenes when the Jin Kingdom and Jianyan Dynasty were in a terrible battle. It's conceivable how strong Li Ganshun's desire for boundaries and territory is. He can take advantage of you, but you can't take his own, otherwise he will never be with you.

Yinzhou is a hot mountain jiu in the hands of the Tianzhu Army. The disadvantages are far greater than the benefits. It is better to use them in exchange for benefits. What benefits? It is mentioned in Article 3, and the pile of real supplies. It is said to be " Gift, that's a saying of giving face. To put it bluntly, it's a redemption of money! And the price is very fair. A piece of the ancestors of the Dangxiang people and a treasure land that produces rock and salt are indeed worth so much.

So will Li Ganshun buy it? Di Lie believes that it will probably be, at most, bargaining, because Xia Kingdom has no choice unless they want to fight another game. This is also because Di Lie has little knowledge of history. In official history, Li Ganshun Nine years later, in September of the third year of Dade of Xia (1137), Li Ganshun sent an envoy to the Jin Kingdom with a lot of money, requesting the return of the former territory of Song Kingdom, Xi and other states outside the Qin River to Xia. The Jin Kingdom finally returned to the Jin Kingdom. Yun ceded the three states including Lezhou (now Ledu, Qinghai), Jishizhou (now Guide, Qinghai), Guzhou (now Hualong, Qinghai) and other states to Xia State.

If Di Lie knew this historical fact, he would be sure that Li Ganshun would pay the accounts. Whether it is Xia State or Li Ganshun, they are all people who know how to settle accounts. Money is nothing, and territory is the most important.

As for Article 4, the Tianzhu Army and the Xia Kingdom set up a market-to-market trade mainly to obtain the raw materials of sulfur, saltpeter and other gunpowder that the Tianzhu Army was short of. These raw materials were mostly in the Xia Kingdom and were cheaper. Di Lie was planning to take advantage of this. The momentum of the second great victory threatened the Xia people and purchased a large amount of money to ensure that the Tianzhu Army would not be troubled by insufficient gunpowder within the next one or two years.

Of course, the Xia people are not stupid either. They may see the clues of ignition powder from this battle of Shenduiyi. If sulfur and saltpeter are purchased on a large scale, it may cause the other party to be alert and thus take export restrictions.

Di Lie also had a backup plan for this. In addition to a silver state, there were also a group of prisoners...

Among the more than 4,000 Xia army prisoners captured by the Tianzhu Army, most of them were auxiliary soldiers, servants, military craftsmen, etc. Once they were defeated, they would inevitably be unlucky. But there were also a few powerful prisoners, such as It is said that more than 300 Bu Bazi were captured because of his power loss; for example, the more than 500 cavalry and infantry of the Shenhua Army and the Xiangyou Army... If the above are not enough, then the twenty-two prodigal army is heavy The cavalry and thirty-seven Iron Harriers, such prisoners must be of great importance.

The two treasures of the Xia army, the Proton Army and the Iron Harrier, were completely a tragedy in the Battle of Shenduiyi. If they were dressed neatly and equipped with men and horses, they would be tired if they couldn't run a thousand steps; if they gave up wearing armor,

Their protection was not even as good as the light cavalry of the Capture of the Life Army. As a result, under such an extremely embarrassing situation, the cavalry of the Tianzhu Army intercepted a section of their tails, and they all captured nearly 10% of the treasures of the Xia army.

.

The Xia Kingdom could ignore the captured auxiliary soldiers, servants, craftsmen, or even the elite Bobazi, or the captive cavalry and infantry of the two major military supervisors, but it could never ignore the Proton Army and the Iron Harrier.

The two heavy cavalry troops are all composed of children of the Dangxiang nobles. Any cavalry inside, their father, brother and uncle may be elders in the army or officials in the court. How could they ignore it? Even if they don’t have such a backstage.

Just because the Proton Army and Iron Harrier were guards of the Xia Kingdom's imperial palace, representing the face of a dynasty, the Xia Kingdom must not ignore it.

Article 5 of the peace agreement says that "you can enter the Song Dynasty or repatriate you" is not so much a condition, but rather a naked threat.

Cao Ji obviously noticed this. He saw many proton troops in the prison camp, and Iron Harrier prisoners of war, so he could naturally understand the meaning behind this. He said anxiously: "I don't know what conditions the military leader needs,

Only then can we repatriate our captured people?”

"It's very simple." Di Lie said calmly, "I will take some of the prisoners to Taiyuan as a tax, and then our army will have a big deal with your country. This transaction may take a long time and will take dozens of times to score.

Complete. Every time the transaction is successfully completed, I will release some of the prisoners until the number of transactions satisfyes me. When the last transaction is completed, I will release the remaining prisoners.”

"So what deal does the military leader want to make with our dynasty?"

"Rice, grain, soldiers, horses...of course, there are some minerals."

Cao Ji nodded repeatedly with a look of "I understand". Needless to say, rice and grain, the most important thing among military funds, the Tianzhu Army will naturally have the better. The military armor, Xia Kingdom is famous all over the world with the Xia Kingdom sword and the Qing Party armor.

However, it is strictly forbidden to sell. The Tianzhu Army naturally wanted to use this to threaten to buy horses. Not to mention, is there any better horses than Hequ horses today?

Cao Ji thought he had seen Di Lie's intention, but he could not have expected that the rice, grain, weapons, and horses that Di Lie said were purely smoke bombs. The real purpose was the vague "minerals" that followed.

". I hope it's not just Cao Ji's thinking so, Li Liangfu, Ye Lirong, the ministers of the Xia Dynasty, including Li Qianshun, could think so, that's the best. Of course, it's not that Di Lie doesn't want rice, grain, and weapons

If you buy horses and other things, Tianshu City can't afford such a large amount of money. If you really need it, grab it directly, which will save you more trouble.

Cao Ji left with satisfaction. This peace talk was a life-saving talisman for him. Whether it was for himself or for the Xia Kingdom, the two armies must reach a peace talk as soon as possible.

...

Zhenwen stared at the back of the joyful and hurriedly leaving! It was Cao Ji, the commander of the Divine Warrior Army! Is that legend true? Cao Ji was indeed defeated and captured? But this person looked like he was smiling.

, how do you look like a prisoner?

Seeing that Zhenwen's expression was different, the envoy of the Jinning Army couldn't help but whisper: "Young Master, what's wrong?"

Jinwen said word by word: "That person is the commander of the Xia army's left-wing Shenwang Army, Cao Ji!"

"Ah!" The Jinning Army envoy looked at the distant figure, shocked for no reason, and could not speak for a moment.

At this time, a guard appeared in front of the stone steps in Huikuo of Guangtang and uttered loudly: "Jinning Army Envoy, Zhe Family Army Envoy, please come in and see you."

Zhenwen finally saw this man who used his courage to splash the sky to capture Taiyuan Prefecture, and then attacked Yinzhou with a side commander. He dared to solve the tiger beard of a country, and even ordered the Zhe family and Jinning Army to join forces.

The matter even made the Zhao royal family admire the leader of the Tianzhu Army: Di Lie.

Before this, Jinwen imagined that the leader of the army who could do such amazing feats was probably like his own father and commander: his long beard drooped, his face was solemn, his own power was imposing without anger, and his momentum was imposing... Who

I thought that it was a young man who was about the same age as me... The psychological gap was too big.

Of course, Di Lie could see the surprise and various emotions of these two people. He didn't say anything, but just looked down at Zhao Wei and the report jointly submitted by Zhao Yan, and roughly understood their mission.

After reading the report, the two of you have been digested almost the same, Di Lie said, "The army leader knows the intention of you who come to the army. You are now in charge of your life.

I am in Yinzhou, and I hear and see, and feel empathy. Do I still have any doubts?”

The Jinning Army envoy took out a scroll of silk book and said in fear: "I came to Yinzhou under the order of Fu Zheng. One was to witness the ownership of Yinzhou, and the other was to present this memorial to the Queen Yuansheng. I don't know..."

"The memorial is taken over for your family's coach. I will give you a date to the Queen. Your mission is completed and you can go back and report to you." Di Lie moved his finger gently, and the guard behind him stepped forward to take over the memorial.

Place it on the stand in front of the table.

The Jinning Army envoy moved his mouth and wanted to say something, but he still didn't dare to speak. He was right, what qualifications do you have to pay a visit to the queen? Strictly speaking, his mission is here,

It is to witness with your own eyes whether this Yinzhou really fell into the hands of the Tianzhu Army. As long as this matter is true, his mission will be completed.

After dealing with the affairs of the Jinning Army, Di Lie turned to Zhenwen and said, "How do you feel about this trip by the Zhe Family Army?"

Jinwen bent down on the seat and said, "Yanwen is not here to represent the Zhe family, but only to represent the individual. Therefore, please do not be commensurate with the Zhe family army."

Di Lie smiled and said, "Okay, then, what will you do if you see the advice of Master Zhe here this time?"

Zhenwen said solemnly: "Yanwen came here and just wanted to know two things. One, what is the real situation of the so-called Shenduiyi Battle? Two, what are the plans of the military leader for my Zhe family?"

Di Lie said with a serious expression: "The first thing is that you don't have to ask the leader of the army. You can go to the prisoner-of-war camp to find out the truth. The second thing is that the leader of the army can give you and your family a clear answer.

, I'm on the shore!"

"Looking back is the shore, I'm on the shore!" Zhenwen thought about it for a while, his eyes gradually brightened...

In the following days, Zhenwen and Jinning Army envoys, holding tokens issued by the Tianzhu Army leader, visited prisoners of war camps in Yinzhou City and the two major camps in the north and south, and even ran to the second twice.

The Shendui Station was inspected ten miles away. One of them also met the Xia army's corpse collection team. The opponent had a large number of people, but there were only five riders on their side. As a result, they ate at the same time and frightened them. You ran to the other side, I

Running here, a comic drama of "Horse Pole Fighting Wolfs on Both Sides"...

Three days later, Zhenwen and Jinning Army envoys said goodbye to Di Lie with full harvest and infinite shock, and rushed back to Jialu Village and Prefecture in a hurry, and wanted to spread the shocking news collected in the past few days as soon as possible.

Return to your coach.
Chapter completed!
