Chapter 401: Bad News (Part II)


The Song-Liao coalition army attacked the Great Xia Kingdom for Li Liangzuo was completely a bolt from the blue, Li Liangzuo did not expect that the Song and Liao countries would dare to renounce the Three Emperors Covenant, with the Song-Liao coalition army six ways to attack Xia, the Great Xia State has been facing the danger of extinction, and now the main army of the Great Xia Kingdom has been transferred to the Western Regions battlefield by Li Liangzuo, and there are basically no soldiers available in the Great Xia, and the Xia-Song and Xia-Liao border defense lines are useless.

Li Liangzuo was helped back to the sleeping tent by Xiao Zhuozi and others, and Li Liangzuo said to a few people on the edge of the bed: "Don't tell anyone about today's events, and you must remember what I say below; First of all, the first priority must be to resolve the battle in Samad as soon as possible, or to negotiate, or to take the city; The second thing is to keep a close eye on the various ministries of the Western Regions to prevent them from causing trouble; The third thing is that the army will return to help, and the army will not have to go back to Xingqing Mansion, but will go directly to the front lines, and the specific matters will be arranged separately. ” "Ministers obey Your Majesty's Shengyu" After the generals left, Li Liangzuo said to Xiao Zhuozi: "Go and take down the border map of Xia Song and Xia Liao." ” Soon Xiao Zhuozi took a huge map and spread it on the ground, Li Liangzuo sat on the map with the support of Xiao Zhuozi, Li Liangzuo looked at the map for a while and said: "According to the time from Xingqing Mansion to here, this war has been going on for almost a month, and the first line of defense of our army may have been lost, and it will take at least more than a month for the army to return to help, and the situation is critical."

"Your Majesty, the two armies of Song and Liao are not worried, as long as our reinforcements arrive, they can be disintegrated at any time."

Xiao Zhuozi is safe, Li Liangzuo said.

"Little Zhuozi, write a secret letter to the queen for me."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

"I have received a secret letter from the Empress, and I have led my army back to help; During this period, the queen can take the strategy of clearing the wilderness and scorched earth to resist the war, move the people to the hinterland of our Great Xia Kingdom, and concentrate her forces on defense; Its southern front needs to hold Lanzhou and Xipingfu, and the northern front can hold the Datong line; If these two places could not be defended, the queen could continue to move the battle line westward, the southern front to hold Liangzhou, the northern front to hold the city of Luoluo, and send the royal children and people to the grassland or west of Helan Mountain; After a month, I will lead the reinforcements to arrive, and the empress can consult with the king of Chu and Li Xiaoren on military and political affairs."

After the secret letter was written, Li Liangzuo said to Xiao Zhuozi; "Send someone immediately, eight hundred miles to expedite, to deliver this secret letter to the queen's hands."

"Yes, the minion will do it."

Before Xiao Zhuozi left, Liang Gewei hurriedly ran in and said: "Your Majesty, the big thing is not good, the city of Ter'er has been lost" Liang Gewei told Li Liangzuo that he knew about the battle Hearing the news, another atomic bomb exploded in Li Liangzuo's mind, and then Li Liangzuo said impatiently: "What a mess, how many people have been broken, tell the truth."

"About twenty or thirty thousand."

"That's 30,000."

"Your Majesty, after There was lost, the Seljuk Empire sent an envoy to our army, asking to see Your Majesty."

"That's what you should say, send someone to inform the acting king, no matter what, you must guard the iron gate for me, if you can't keep him, Li Bingchang will hang himself and apologize."

Liang Gewei said with some horror: "Yes, the last general will send someone to pass the order." ” Two days later, the envoys of the Seljuk Empire arrived, and Li Liangzuo received him in his own Chinese army tent, and after the envoys entered the tent, they said to Li Liangzuo: "In Lower Orel, I have been entrusted by the Seljuk Empire's prime minister Nizam Mullek to negotiate peace. ” "There are conditions for negotiating peace, I don't know what the conditions of your country are," Li Liangzuo asked Orel.

Orel said to Li Liangzuo: "It's not convenient to say this for the time being, you need to ask my majesty to make a choice after seeing my majesty in the next place." ” Li Liangzuo sneered: "The emperor of your country has been placed under house arrest by me in the city of Samama, and I am not afraid of any tricks you will play, as long as I give an order, the inner city can be broken." ” Orel's face was very ugly, and Li Liangzuo was silent for a long time before saying, "Little Zhuozi, pass on my military order and make way for the envoy to enter the city." ” "Yes, the minion commands."

"Your Excellency, I will give you an hour, and if you don't come out after an hour, you will never have to come out again."

Li Liangzuo sneered and said to Orel.

"I understand, thank you Your Majesty the Emperor."

After Orel left, Li Liangzuo said with a sigh of relief; "It's really time for this Oryol to come, I really hope he can convince Maliksha to agree to peace talks."

"Your Majesty, rest assured, this time Maliksha has already appreciated the strength of our army, and will naturally agree to peace talks."

Xiao Zhuozi said.

"Let's hope so" In the city of Sammad, compared to Li Liangzuo outside the city, Malikshah's life is not easy, the tragic siege battle has caused heavy losses to the Serbian army, and now the Serbian army defending the city is less than 100,000 soldiers and horses, and with the loss of the outer city, Maliksha is facing a serious problem, that is, the strategic space is gradually compressed, and now the entire inner city is basically within the range of the Serbian army's long-range catapults.

"Wechen Orel see Your Majesty."

Maliksha was covered with dust at this time, and he didn't know how long it had been since he had taken a bath, and after seeing Orel, he said excitedly: "Aiqing, have you arrived with my reinforcements, and the siege of Samad has been lifted, right?"

” "Your Majesty, Weichen did not bring reinforcements to come, Weichen came to meet Your Majesty with the Prime Minister's fatality, and now the Prime Minister has led the army to arrive outside the Iron Gate Pass" "Okay, great, as long as the iron gate is opened, our army will still have a chance to turn defeat into victory."

Maliksha said happily.

"Your Majesty."

Orel knelt down in front of Maliksha and said: "The prime minister has brought less than 50,000 new troops, and its combat strength is weak, and it is impossible to capture the Iron Gate Pass, and the Byzantine Empire has been ready to move in the last six months, and it seems that it has the intention of raising troops in Asia Minor; Your Majesty, wake up, the main force of our Serbian army in the Northern Expedition has been exhausted, and the empire's vitality has been greatly injured and it is no longer able to fight again. ” Hearing Orel's words, Maliksha made his butt on the chair, and after a long time, Maliksha's voice trembled and said, "Is it possible for me to end the war now?"

"Your Majesty rest assured, as long as Your Majesty agrees, Weichen has his own way to persuade Emperor Xia to withdraw from the army."

Orel said to Malikshah; "Your Majesty doesn't have to be discouraged, Your Majesty will work hard after returning to China, and you will definitely be able to avenge this country in ten years."

"Okay, I have full authority for you to negotiate with Xia Jun and try to protect the interests of our army."

Maliksha said to Orel.

After Orel left, he was able to start negotiations with Li Yanzong and others, because both sides wanted to end the war as soon as possible, so the negotiations went very smoothly, and it only took more than a day for both sides to reach an agreement, and the rest was waiting for Li Liangzuo and Maliksha to agree to sign the alliance.

In the early morning of the next day, Li Liangzuo and Maliksha signed an alliance at the junction of the inner city and the outer city of Samaji, which is known as the Samada Covenant: the covenant stipulates, first, that the state of war between the Bactria Empire and the Seljuk Empire will end immediately; Second: the Serbian army withdrew to the area south of the Tiemen Pass, and did not take any supplies and treasures with them; Third: the Great Xia Empire and the Seljuk Empire demarcate the national border, the north of the Iron Gate Pass contains the Iron Gate Pass is owned by the Great Xia Empire, and the south of the Iron Gate Pass is owned by the Seljuk Empire; Fourth: Restore the Silk Road from the Bactria Empire to the Seljuk Empire, and the two countries set up a field in the cities of Telmi and Samad to resume trade.
