Early the next morning, Zhang Jian sent people into Wuqing City and informed Li Kesheng that they could meet for a second time to talk about cooperation. However, in order to show Zhou Jun's sincerity, this meeting should be held in Liaoning outside the city.
In the military camp.
And in order to express the sincerity of the other party, the young master Lu Siqiao should come in person. When the time comes, their Liao Kingdom's Tiyin will also come out in person to receive him.
Even if he decided to cooperate with the Liao and counterattack the Song Dynasty, it would be reasonable to enter the Liao camp and meet people.
Besides, there were only a few hundred Liao troops outside the city. If they dared to play any tricks, with just one order, 20,000 Zhou troops could crush their camp.
Being a brave man, Lu Siqiao took Li Kesheng and the master master Qiao Yunyi out of the city to the Liao army camp.
Second Master Qiu Da, Feng Chunxue and others stayed in Wuqing City, ready to send troops at any time.
In the Liao army camp, Brother Yelu Angkor met Lu Siqiao as he wished, and was stunned by her beauty. He opened his mouth wide and froze on the spot in an incomprehensible manner.
Out of respect for her collaborators, Lu Siqiao did not wear a white gauze when she appeared. But looking at Yelu Angkor's pig-like performance, Lu Siqiao felt disgusted for no reason.
It was Zhang Jian who stepped forward to smooth things over and introduced the two parties. Only then did Yelu Angkor stop his lustful look and changed it to a serious expression.
In ancient times, there was no such thing as a handshake ceremony. The two parties clasped their fists, which was regarded as a greeting. Then Li Kesheng took the initiative to ask about the matters that the Liao Kingdom was willing to assist.
According to what the two people had discussed before, Zhang Jian said: "For the sake of the friendship between Liao and Zhou, we can support Zhou at one time.
Half a year's worth of food, fodder, and knives for an army of 50,000 troops."
For half a year's worth of supplies for an army of 50,000, the Liao Kingdom paid a certain price.
But obviously, the Song Dynasty is not that easy to defeat, at least it cannot be defeated in half a year. This result makes Li Kesheng a little dissatisfied.
"Master Yelu, Master Zhang, just for these sacrifices, our Zhou army changed its march from north to south. Isn't it sincerity enough?" Li Kesheng spoke.
He was reminding the two people in front of him that the Zhou army had not really gone south yet, which meant that they still had room for choice.
"Haha, General Li, this is the most we can do within our authority. Of course, if you want more support, it is not impossible. Why don't you send someone to accompany us to the capital to meet our emperor in person?
Make a request. I think for the sake of the friendship between Liao and Zhou, the emperor can still make more concessions."
As Zhang Jian spoke, his eyes naturally fell on Lu Siqiao.
In the final analysis, this plan is just to help Yelu Angkor get Lu Siqiao.
Zhang Jian even thought further, didn't your Zhou army have a male master? Well, as long as Lu Siqiao is willing to marry Yelu Angkor and give birth to a child for him, the new master of the Zhou Dynasty will be the Liao Kingdom.
's descendants.
If this is the case, it would be logical for the Liao Kingdom to support the Zhou Dynasty.
Zhang Jian opened his mouth, but Li Kesheng frowned. It was difficult for him to speak when the matter involved Lu Siqiao.
Li Kesheng shut his mouth, and Lu Siqiao knew that she had to say something. Otherwise, once the news came back, it was said that the Liao Kingdom could support them more.
If she messed up this matter because of her timidity, she might be ashamed to meet others, let alone lead the Zhou army.
"Master Zhang, if I am willing to go to the capital in person, can you guarantee that your emperor will definitely provide more support?"
"This..." Zhang Jian couldn't answer immediately.
If Lu Siqiao is unwilling to marry Yelu Angkor, then all the guarantees will be meaningless.
When Zhang Jian hesitated, Lu Siqiao came up with a sarcastic comment.
This is something that the Liao Kingdom cannot give an answer to. In this way, it will not be afraid that the people below will make excuses for itself.
But before Lu Siqiao could speak, Yelu Angkor suddenly said: "Of course we will support more. In this way, Ben Tiyin swore as a member of the Yelu royal family that as long as Young Master Lu is willing to follow us to the capital, he has shown enough
If you show your sincerity, our Liao Kingdom will definitely support you more. Even if necessary, it is not impossible to send troops to help you deal with the Song Dynasty."
"Furthermore, as long as Young Master Lu agrees to go to Shangjing with us, Ben Tiyin can now make the decision and allocate all of Master Zhang's promises to you within five days."
Yelu Angkor looked confident. After speaking, he glanced at Lu Siqiao provocatively, as if to say, if you want to benefit, it depends on whether you have the courage.
If you don't have the courage yourself, then it's no one else's fault.
"Hello..." Lu Siqiao was momentarily irritated and wanted to agree.
But at this moment, her master Qiao Yuntian spoke first and said: "Okay, we understand what you mean. Let us think about it and give you an answer."
After all it is
Lao Jianghu, Qiao Yuntian didn't want his apprentice to make any impulsive decision. What he needed was for Lu Siqiao to really think through the decision she would make in the future.
This time it was Lu Siqiao and others who were considering it. As soon as they returned to Wuqing City, Qiu Da, Feng Chunxue and others gathered around and asked about the negotiations.
Lu Siqiao didn't speak. Li Kesheng stood there and talked to everyone about the peace talks, but she went straight to her mansion in the city. She needed time to think about it carefully.
With her intelligence, she could naturally see that the eyes Yelu Angkor looked at her were full of other meanings.
But people of faith are scary.
Such people are often not even afraid of death. What they want is to be able to achieve their ideals and goals.
The Zhou Dynasty passed into her hands, but its strength is no longer what it used to be, especially with the death of more and more old people and the propaganda of the Song Dynasty. Now I am afraid that not many people know about the Zhou Dynasty.
If I keep waiting, I'm afraid I won't even have the chance to strike out.
In other words, this time Lu Siqiao took up the banner of the Zhou Dynasty, which was her last ditch effort.
Once she fails, she will have no chance to restore her ancestral glory.
This is an uprising that can only move forward, not retreat.
Before the uprising, Lu Siqiao also saw the power of the Song Dynasty. Although this was a country that did not pay attention to military development, over the past hundred years, its power was not something that could be observed with just 20,000 people. It was even more alarming.
To overthrow.
That's why she chose to enter Liao land first and make a name for herself here, because she also knew that the people of Liao Dynasty did not treat the Zhou Dynasty like the Song Dynasty.
In the same way, the act of extermination is carried out.
The enemy of my enemy is my friend, this saying still has some truth in many cases.
Using Zhou's name, Lu Siqiao wanted more people to know their existence and join in. It's just a pity that it can't be said to be ineffective, but it's not very good. Several months have passed since the incident.
, only about a thousand people have joined.
The progress of the matter was much worse than expected, which made Lu Siqiao a little disappointed. Fortunately, at this time, the Liao people really made some movement, and they were willing to help her, and all she had to pay was to risk going to the capital city of Liao to go to Beijing.
.
Perhaps, this time I will lose my personal freedom.
If it's serious, I'm afraid her health will not be saved.
But this is definitely an opportunity.
Lu Siqiao also believed that her existence was useful to the Liao Kingdom.
In other words, the Liao Kingdom would not really kill itself, at most it would just use coercion and inducement.
Knowing this, Lu Siqiao could not refuse, because if she refused and angered the Liao and Song countries, the world would be so big that there would really be no place for her.
At that time, regardless of whether she would die or not, the 20,000 brothers who followed her on Hutou Mountain would definitely not get any benefits. Maybe they would really die here.
If she were alone, Lu Siqiao would never stay for a moment longer, nor would she give Yelv Angkor a chance to look at her. But now, she has a heavy responsibility, and there are some things she clearly doesn't want to do, but in order to have more trust and support
As a person of her own, she can only make decisions that go against her own will.
squeak.
The originally closed door was pushed from the outside
Open it, and then Qiao Yuntian strode in.
When "Master" saw the person coming, Lu Siqiao immediately stood up and showed a strong look.
"Hey." Seeing that Lu Siqiao was still pretending to be calm at this time, Qiao Yuntian sighed and said: "There is no need to hold on in front of my master. If you want to cry, just cry."
"Master." Looking at the only person who understood her in the mountain, tears began to well up in Lu Siqiao's eyes.
Seeing that Lu Siqiao no longer pretended to be strong and could not stop her tears from flowing out, Qiao Yuntian took a step forward, held his apprentice in his arms and said, "Cry if you feel wronged. It will make you feel better if you cry."
In the master's broad chest, Lu Siqiao returned to what a girl should be like, sobbing for a long time.
Feeling the sobs of his apprentice in his arms, Qiao Yuntian could understand her mood better than anyone else. After all, why wasn't he the one with the burden?
Do you really think that Qiao Yuntian settled down on Hutou Mountain just now because he had nowhere to go?
Don't forget, he has a very resounding sentence, called Desert Sword Madness.
Even in the desert, Qiao Yuntian can live a very good life and make a big name, so what place is there that he can't go to and survive?
But after he came to Hutou Mountain and learned the details of the people living here, he still decided to stay. Isn't it because his ancestors had received favors from the Chai family?
Our ancestors have taught us that if future generations encounter descendants of the Chai family, they must do their best to help, otherwise they will not be able to see their ancestors in shame after death.
This is the real reason why Qiao Yuntian stayed. It’s just that he has never told the outside world. That’s
Because he thinks it is unnecessary. There is no use in telling others some things. It is better to carry them by yourself. In this way, even if you are tired, you will only be tired of yourself.
