Besides, after Li Liangzuo burned the 100,000 troops of the Liao State in Datong, he immediately led the army to retreat to Baidaoban, although the Xia army won the victory again, but the losses were also not small, losing more than 3,000 people before and after, which made Li Liangzuo feel distressed, the population of Western Xia was already small, and these were all elites in a hundred battles.
Hakudozaka, inside the summer army camp.
"Your Majesty, our army won a complete victory in the Great Tong War, and the last general doesn't understand why Your Majesty didn't take advantage of the victory to pursue and capture the Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun in one fell swoop."
Ji Lai asked Li Liangzuo puzzled.
"Although the Liao army was defeated, but the foundation was not injured, the national strength is still strong, if this battle continues to be fought again, it will be more and more unfavorable to us, it is better to take advantage of this to negotiate peace with the Liao State, and first get the benefits of blindness."
Li Liangzuo said with a smile.
"Yes, the last general understands," Ji Ra Siyi said.
"Is there any news about Xingqing Mansion recently?"
asked Li Yi.
Li Yi stood up and said, "There is no news. ” "Strategist, Yelu Chongyuan and his lieutenant have arrived," Li Liangzuo asked again.
"I've been taken in, and I'm in prison now."
Zhou Wentai said to Li Liangzuo.
Li Liangzuo said to the two guards standing in the tent, "Go and escort them both to the big tent." ” Soon Yale Chongyuan and his lieutenant were escorted into the big tent, and Li Liangzuo walked down from the dragon chair and said with a smile: "Why are you so ignorant that you dare to help the imperial uncle of Da Liao, and don't hurry up to untie the imperial uncle." ” "Quick, fast, fast, loosen" Li Liangzuo walked up to Yale Chongyuan and said: "Uncle Huang, I'm sorry, all the mistakes are my fault, you don't care about the villain, I already know that I am wrong and plan to negotiate peace with Da Liao, and if I continue to fight, my family will be gone." ” Yale Chongyuan thought that Li Liangzuo had been scared by the Liao army, so he took up the shelf and said: "Hmph, why bother with today?"
"Yes, yes, it's all me, it's not right, you sent someone to tell Ling Gongzi not to fight again, if you continue to fight, I'm afraid that even his own life will be lost, after all, a Datong plus 100,000 Liao troops are not worth Ling Gongzi's life."
Li Liangzuo said with a smile.
"As long as you are willing to agree to the conditions of this king, what you just did with the 100,000 Liao army, you tell this king what happened," Yelu Chongyuan was happy and then angry, grabbed Li Liangzuo's collar and said.
Li Liangzuo pushed Yelu Chongyuan away, tidied up his clothes and said: "It's nothing, I just set a big fire in Datong, not to mention that your son's life is really big, 100,000 Liao troops were burned by me, and he ran out in a daze." ” Yelu Chongyuan heard that his ass was on the ground, and his butt almost didn't fall into eight petals, but Yale Chongyuan didn't feel the slightest, because Yelu Chongyuan's heart was full of shock, and he had a deep fear of Li Liangzuo in his heart, since the founding of Yelu Abaoji, the Taizu of Liao, Liaoguo has never suffered such a big loss.
The news of the defeat of the Liao army soon spread to the Linhuang Mansion in Shangjing, and the great Liao monarchs and ministers were shocked by these news, and the people of the Liao State were panicked for a while, and Yelu Hongji immediately convened the ministers to discuss the matter.
"Ladies and gentlemen, what do you think of this matter?"
asked Yelu Hongji to the ministers.
The ministers looked at each other and didn't dare to speak, and Yelu Hongji said by name: "Yelu Yixin, what should I do now?"
"Your Majesty, now our army has been defeated in successive battles, Uncle Huang, Yale Renxian, Yeru Nerugu and Xiao Yuanshan are all famous generals of my Great Liao Hundred Battles, even they have been defeated one after another, even Xijing Datong has been burned by the Xia army, Weichen really can't think of anyone else who can stop the Xia army; If Your Majesty wants to let your ministers offer advice, Weichen can only ask Your Majesty to make peace with Xia Guo.
Yelu Yixin said stiffly.
"Negotiate peace, this is a solution, what do you think," Yelu Hongji asked the ministers.
The ministers saw that Yelu Hongji was not mad, so they all hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, Shengming, the ministers think that they should negotiate peace with Xia Guo." ” Yelu Hongji is a full straw bag, seeing that Xijing Datong was burned by the Xia army, Yelu Hongji was afraid that the Xia army would come to Linhuang Mansion, and he already had a plan to negotiate peace in his heart, so he sent a minister below to put it forward.
"Who do you think you should send to negotiate peace?"
asked Yelu Hongji in the spirit of democracy again.
Yelu Yixin stood up and continued: "The minister thought that Yelu Nerugu should be sent as a plenipotentiary peace ambassador to represent Da Liao to negotiate peace with the Xia State. ” Yelu Hongji thought about it, Yelu Chongyuan and Yelu Nerugu, father and son, were not good things, they lost this battle, and they should clean up this mess, so Yelu Hongji issued an order: "Chuan I will make Yelu Nerugu the minister of plenipotentiary peace, and negotiate peace with Xia Guo as soon as possible." ” At the same time, the Great Song Dynasty also received the news that the Xia army defeated the Liao army in Datong, and Song Renzong dared to be very happy for a while, fortunately he did not promise the Liao State to increase troops to the Xia border, otherwise it is impossible to say when the Xia army will hit the territory of the Great Song Dynasty, after all, Datong is very close to the northern border of the Great Song Dynasty.
Li Liangzuo also did not expect that the victory in the Battle of Datong would provide a significant impact on the resumption of border trade between Xia and Song in the future and the resumption of the policy of annual currency.
A few days later, Li Liangzuo received the letter of state from the Liao emperor Yelu Hongji, and Li Liangzuo was happy to see the letter of state, because Li Liangzuo did not expect that Yelu Hongji would propose peace first, so Li Liangzuo won the opportunity in the negotiations between the two countries.
"Your Majesty, I don't know what you are looking for Weichen to do" Zhou Wentai asked Li Liangzuo.
Li Liangzuo handed the letter of state to Zhou Wentai and said: "This is the letter of state from the emperor of the Liao State to me, Yelu Hongji wants to negotiate peace with me, and I plan to send you to represent me with the Minister of Plenipotentiary and negotiate peace with the Liao State on behalf of the Great Xia State." ” Zhou Wentai heard that Li Liangzuo handed over such a big burden to himself, so he hurriedly shirked and said: "Your Majesty, I am afraid that it will be difficult for the minister to take on this position, and I also ask Your Majesty to choose another meritorious." ” "I believe you will be able to complete this peace."
Li Liangzuo patted Zhou Wentai on the shoulder and said.
"Minister, you must live up to your mission."
Zhou Wentai said; "I don't know what the bottom line of His Majesty's peace negotiation is" Li Liangzuo thought for a while and said: "First: Liao must cede the land of Tiande, Yunnei, Dongsheng, and Fengzhou, second: Xia and Liao will rule the country as brothers, and I can respect the emperor of Liao as a brother, and third: Liao must compensate our army for military expenses of no less than 100,000 taels, as for the rest, you can watch and do it."
"Yes, Weichen received the order, long live my emperor, long live, long live" Zhou Wentai took the holy decree.
Xia and Liao negotiated in Fengyi, where was Yelu Nelugu Zhou Wentai's opponent, and Li Liangzuo continued to increase military pressure, Fengyi peace was quickly reached.
The terms and conditions are as follows: First: Liao must cede the lands of Tiande, Yunnei, Dongsheng, and Fengzhou; Second: After Xia and Liao, they will rule the country as brothers, and I can respect the emperor of Liao as a brother; Third: Liao needs to compensate the Xia army for 200,000 military expenses, including 50,000 taels of gold, 100,000 taels of silver, 20,000 horses, and 30,000 cattle and sheep; Fourth: The Liao State gives the Xia State 100,000 coins every year, including 5,000 taels of gold, 55,000 taels of silver, and 30,000 heads of cattle and sheep.
Fifth: The two countries opened a trade field on the border, and the Liao allowed the Xia to sell green and white salt to the Liao.
Sixth: From the date of signing the contract, the two countries boycotted the army, and the Xia State returned the Liao Emperor's uncle Yale Chongyuan and his subordinates.
Fengyi Yihe had a far-reaching impact on the Xia State, and after the opening of the Xia and Liao fields, a large amount of wealth of the Liao State poured into the Xia State, providing a large amount of materials for the westward expansion of the Xia State in the future
