"Surrender? Why recruit them?" After hearing Zhu Wu's words, Hu Yanting was stunned. www --
"If we don't surrender them, will we just watch Yanjing City stand here and be ruled by the Khitans?" Zhu Wu was also stunned.
"We can send troops to knock down Yanjing City!" Hu Yanting said angrily.
It turns out that Hu Yanting meant to fight with troops rather than to surrender! Militarism has been prevalent in Liangshan in recent years, and the army from top to bottom advocates force. Since Hu Yanting entered the Sixteenth Prefecture of Yanyun, he must be defeated in every battle. He never thought
I want to recruit the Khitans to surrender.
"Yanjing is a famous city in the north. The city walls are extremely thick and high. There are tens of thousands of troops stationed here. If we really fight, our losses will be considerable. If we can solve the problem with our words, why bother to solve it with our fists?"
Zhu Wu smiled.
Hu Yanting curled his lips, not agreeing with Zhu Wu's statement. It's just that Zhu Wu is the deputy commander of the Hedong War Zone, and their Third Army is just a legion under the Hedong War Zone. He is just a military commander, so he can't violate it.
Zhu Wu's idea.
In the afternoon of that day, the Liangshan army waved a banner under the city gate, saying that they wanted to negotiate peace with the Liao people! The Liao army above was in an uproar. Not long after, a general ran up and shouted loudly at the bottom, saying that he agreed to negotiate peace with Liangshan.
! Not long after, a huge cage was suddenly hung from the city wall. The Liao generals above asked Liangshan’s envoys to go up from the cage to Yanjing City.
"Mr. Zhu, I'm leaving now!" At this moment, a slightly short middle-aged man stood beside Zhu Wu and said with a smile.
"Well, remember our conditions and make them agree. Also, be careful about safety." Zhu Wu nodded.
"Don't worry, at this moment, surrender is their only choice! After I enter Yanjing City, I will not be in danger." The middle-aged man said.
It turned out that this middle-aged man was Lin Chong's apprentice Cao Zheng. He was originally affiliated with Liangshanbo and was responsible for the intelligence work in the Central Plains. However, the distance between Hedong and Liangshanbo has been extremely close over the years, and the two intelligence agencies have been merged into one, and he is
Lin Chong's disciple, so he can be considered a member of the Hedong War Zone. At this moment, he is going to Yanjing City to be responsible for the recruitment and surrender work.
I saw him striding forward, and after jumping into the cage, the rope above was pulled up, and his body slowly moved up.
Cao Zheng looked at the Yanjing city wall beside him and the Liangshan army in the distance, and his heart surged.
Thinking about how Lin Chong was wandering in the world after his disaster. He thought he would be wandering in the world for the rest of his life. How could he have thought that such a day would come? When Liangshanbo was first established, how could he have thought that he could serve as an envoy of the Han people and recruit the Liao Kingdom to surrender?
"At this point in my life, what more could I ask for?" At this moment, Cao Zheng actually had such an idea.
His current temperament is also very different from before. In the past, he was just an ordinary Jianghu, but now he is in charge of the intelligence work in the Central Plains. He has the temperament of a superior person all over his body. At first glance, he is different from ordinary people.
.
When Cao Zheng was pulled up to the city wall, he jumped down. He thought he could see important ministers of the Liao Kingdom here, but he didn't know that there were only a group of Liao soldiers around him, and there were also two Liao captains, who looked like six.
The appearance of the seventh grade.
"Your envoy has come a long way and has worked hard. Please come to Yanjing City quickly!" The two captains came over and said with a smile on their faces.
"Where are your Prime Minister, Privy Envoy, King Xi and others of the Liao Kingdom? I am here today on behalf of Liangshan. I have important matters to discuss!" Cao Zheng said flatly.
"Your envoy, please go to the Lifan Courtyard to rest first, and then go to see them." One of the older captains said.
"Okay! Here is a letter from Mr. Zhu Wu, our deputy commander in charge of Liangshan Hedong War Zone. Please help me deliver it to your important officials in the Liao Kingdom!" Cao Zheng saw the persistence of the two captains and felt a little confused at the moment, so he had to say this.
"Yes!" The two captains took the letter and looked respectful.
Cao Zheng originally entered Yanjing City to persuade the important ministers of the Liao Kingdom to surrender, but now the important ministers of the Liao Kingdom did not meet him at all. He could only walk down the city wall and entered the Yanjing City under the leadership of these two captains.
At this moment, Yanjing City no longer has the prosperity of the past.
, there are not many people on the street. In fact, since the war started, ordinary residents have been hiding at home and dare not come out at all on weekdays. There are only a few shops open on the street, and occasionally some businessmen are seen. Those businessmen saw Cao Zheng.
Also extremely surprised.
In the Liao Kingdom, it was normal for Han people to be officials, but if Han people were to be officials, they had to wear Khitan official uniforms. The person in front of me was dressed as a Han, but surrounded by so many soldiers and generals, he looked like he had an extraordinary status.
But he was not an official of the Liao Kingdom, which was surprising.
In a shop, two businessmen pointed at Cao Zheng and whispered at the same time.
"Who is this person? He is wearing Han clothes, surrounded by so many soldiers and generals, and it seems that the direction they are going is the Lifan Courtyard? Could it be that this person is actually an envoy of the Han people outside?" said a businessman.
"I think it's possible!" Another businessman said after observing for a long time.
"This... the envoys from the Han people outside have actually entered Yanjing City. Are the Han people going to negotiate peace with us in Daliao?" The businessman who spoke first said excitedly.
"It would be great if peace talks really happened! I've been so scared these days that I can't sleep well every day!" Another businessman couldn't help but get excited.
For the ordinary people in Yanjing City, what they want is peace and security, and they do not want a war to occur in Yanjing City. War in the cold weapon era was extremely cruel. Generally, after the city was broken, it was often looted by the army, and even more cruel things happened.
It was a massacre of the city. In front of the army, ordinary people had no ability to protect themselves, so they could imagine the horror of war.
At this moment, these two businessmen were excited, and several other businessmen in other places who had guessed the whole story were also very excited. There were also some people whose families were serving as soldiers on the city wall. When the news came out, the whole family was celebrating.
When Cao Zheng arrived at the Lifan Court, all the officials from the Lifan Court came out to greet him, the envoy from Liangshan. Even Wanyan Zongwang, the second prince of the Jin Kingdom, had never enjoyed such treatment when he arrived. National power is diplomatic.
Basically, the Liao Kingdom has basically perished at this moment. Facing their "new master", how can they not entertain them attentively?
******
The Imperial Palace of Yanjing City is located in the middle of Yanjing City. After more than 200 years of repairs by the Liao people, the palace here is extremely majestic and majestic. It is not much worse than the Song Dynasty Palace in Bianliang City. The number of eunuchs and maids in the palace is also the same.
There are many, but these eunuchs and palace ladies are all uneasy and have worried looks on their faces.
At this moment, in the most important meeting hall of the palace, Xiao Fengxian, Xiao Qian, Xiao Sixian, Yelu Chun, Li Chuwen and other important ministers have all arrived. Xiao Fengxian has Zhu Wu's letter in his hand and has read it several times. He handed the letter to Xiao.
Qian, Li Chuwen and others are also reading constantly.
It was already dark, and candles were lit in the palace. The quality of candles in this era was far inferior to that of later generations, and they kept making soft popping noises. Several important ministers in the palace frowned, and no one spoke for a long time.
"Except Yanjing City, all the sixteen states of Yanyun have been captured by the Han. Moreover, His Majesty has also been captured by the Han. We have no hope of staying in Yanjing City. I think it is better to surrender to the Han." After a long time, Xiao Fengxian
Sighed.
In fact, even if Liangshan did not send people to persuade him to surrender, he would send people outside to discuss surrender with Liangshan after a long time. It's just that the speed of the Han people's arrival was beyond imagination.
"Master Xiao, we still have hundreds of thousands of troops in the north!" Yelu Chun said coldly.
"According to what this letter says, our army of hundreds of thousands has been defeated. The Xixia people were almost completely wiped out, and less than 50,000 people were able to escape. As for our Khitan army, they were also completely wiped out, with 100,000 people able to escape.
They have become prisoners of the Han people, and the Jurchens have also gone north. Now, we can't count on them." Xiao Fengxian said with a bitter smile.
"That letter must be nonsense. Our army of hundreds of thousands is so powerful. How can we be defeated by them? I don't believe it!" Yelu Chun said angrily.
"We have all seen the strength of the Han people's military. I don't think it is possible for the Han people to make such a joke with us." Xiao Qian shook his head.
"I don't believe that our Liao Kingdom has perished like this! Yanjing is still there, and I am still the Jin King of Liao Kingdom. Now that the emperor is captured, I...I can even become the emperor of Liao Dynasty!" Yelu Chun said breathlessly.
At this moment, he could no longer suppress the desire in his heart, and even his expression became extremely ferocious.
"Surrender!" Xiao Qian also sighed and said.
"Are you really able to accept the conditions in this letter?" Xiao Sixian said at this moment. Please come and watch the first release without advertisements--
