It's now clear that Xiao Gan and others no longer trust the Han people.
He was prepared to return home and then feign illness.
Not involved in politics,
When Empress Dowager Xiao asked, he said,
"I believe that the plan of building a large stone forest is a sound one."
Empress Dowager Xiao nodded and said, "Since the three senior officials have all said so,"
"Then send an envoy to Tokyo to reclaim the two provinces,"
Who can serve as envoy?
Xiao Gan said, "Didn't Da Shi Lin Ya go on a mission to Daliang some time ago?"
"Da Shi Lin Ya and Liang Wang of Daliang also have some connections,"
"Why not send Da Shilin again south?"
Upon hearing this, Yelü Dashi immediately replied,
"I haven't been feeling well lately,"
"I'm just afraid they won't adapt to the climate and water if they go south,"
"The condition worsened, causing serious complications."
Chapter 1846 Yelü Dashi
Xiao Gan was arrogant and domineering.
His army has once again become the most powerful.
He was afraid that Xiao Gan would cause trouble after he left.
This completely destroyed the Liao Dynasty.
Empress Dowager Xiao also felt that without Yelü Dashi,
She could no longer suppress Xiao Gan and nodded.
"Since Da Shilinya is unwell,"
"Then let's choose someone else."
Who would be willing to go south to Daliang?
The officials looked at each other.
Surprisingly, no one was willing to go on the mission.
Both the Khitans and the Xi felt they could not persuade the Liang dynasty.
Going south only means suffering humiliation.
Who would be willing to take on this job?
Han Chinese, on the other hand, all had to avoid suspicion.
To avoid being accused of having ulterior motives after leaving the country.
Empress Dowager Xiao waited for a while,
He glanced at the officials.
Staring at Yu Zhongwen, the Vice Minister of State Affairs,
"Yu Qing is well-versed in Han Chinese culture,"
"Would you be willing to go on a diplomatic mission?"
Yu Zhongwen, the Vice Chancellor, observed Empress Dowager Xiao calling out names.
They had no choice but to step out of the line.
"Your humble servant is clumsy with words,"
"And he has no experience as an envoy,"
"I'm afraid it might cause a major blunder."
Empress Dowager Xiao laughed and said, "If Minister Yu is clumsy with words,"
"Then the Liao Dynasty will have no one left who can speak eloquently."
"This journey is crucial to the fate of the Liao Dynasty,"
"Only someone as eloquent as Yu Qing can do it,"
"I hope you will not refuse, Lord Yu."
Yu Zhongwen, seeing Empress Dowager Xiao say this,
He had no choice but to cup his hands and say,
"Empress Dowager Meng values it,"
"Your subject is willing to serve you like a dog or a horse."
Empress Dowager Xiao dismissed all the officials.
They also ordered that generous gifts be prepared for Yu Zhongwen and his party.
You could say they adopted a very humble attitude.
After Zhao Yuan issued the order to send troops to Hebei,
He then dispatched Lin Chong with 30,000 men, including Shi Xiu, Liu Tang, and Suo Chao, to march north.
They have moved into Zhuozhou.
Lin Chong's campaign to wipe out Wang Qing,
Only Shi Xiu, the daredevil; Liu Tang, the red-haired devil; and Suo Chao, the vanguard, managed to claim the greatest credit.
He was promoted to general, and then Wang Qing led his troops to surrender.
Holy Water General Shan Tinggui and Divine Fire General Wei Dingguo
Nine-Tattooed Dragon Shi Jin and his group were a step too slow.
He was still a captain.
The veteran soldiers of Liangshan under Lin Chong and Lu Junyi,
Most of them have been assigned to the new army as officers.
Both were promoted to Vice Minister of War.
He then ceased to lead troops.
The army had only been on the march for a few days when
News then came from Hebei.
The Liao Kingdom will send an envoy to the capital to discuss this matter.
July 16th,
The Liao envoys had just entered Tokyo.
The Great Liang had already transferred civil officials from Hebei to the two prefectures of Zhuo and Yi.
To appease the people.
Zhao Yuan received Yu Zhongwen.
However, it reiterated that the Sixteen Prefectures of Yan and Yun were all Han Chinese territory.
There is no issue of ownership between Zhuo and Yi prefectures.
The Liao people had known for a long time that they would not be able to reclaim the two prefectures.
Yu Zhongwen spent several days arguing,
Then he requested that the Liang Dynasty agree to establish the King of Qin as the ruler of the Liao Kingdom.
The Liao Dynasty submitted to the Liang Dynasty.
Zhao Yuan agreed to make the Liao Kingdom a vassal state.
However, the Liao Kingdom must return the Sixteen Prefectures of Yan and Yun.
Several prefectures in the Xijing Circuit of the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun have already fallen into the hands of the Jurchens.
The remaining Nanjing Daozhou Prefecture was also the only fertile land left in the Liao Dynasty.
How could Yu Zhongwen dare to agree to this?
I spent more than ten days in Tokyo.
In the end, they returned empty-handed.
.....
In August, the Jin emperor Wanyan Aguda, whom Daliang had scouted, departed from Shangjing in June.
He personally pursued Yelü Yanxi.
On the fifth day of the eighth month, the Great Liang sent official letters to the Liao and Jin dynasties.
The demand was made for the Liao state to withdraw from nine provinces, including You (Liao's Nanjing) and Ji.
The Jin dynasty withdrew from its occupation of the four prefectures of Yun (present-day Datong Prefecture, the western capital of the Liao dynasty) and Shuo.
Chapter 1847 Submission of the Decline Table
Yingzhou (Hejian Prefecture) and Mozhou, two of the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun, have been recovered by the Song Dynasty.
Zhuozhou, on the other hand, had just been reclaimed by the Great Liang.
Yizhou was a prefecture established later.
It is not among the Sixteen Prefectures of Yan and Yun.
Empress Dowager Xiao of Liao, Xiao Gan, Yelü Dashi, and others discussed the matter.
They still dare not start a war.
A letter of appeal was presented to Da Liang.
Willing to submit and pay tribute
The nine provinces of You and Ji were leased.
The Liao envoy had just entered Hebei.
Daliang then rejected the Liao Dynasty's proposal to lease the land.
On August 10th, Zhao Yuan swore an oath to launch a northern expedition.
He led 20,000 troops under Hua Rong and Zhang Qing north to Zhuozhou. The army arrived on the day...
If the Liao Dynasty had not withdrawn from the nine provinces of You and Ji,
Daliang will send troops to seize it.
Meanwhile, troops from Hedong Road and Ningxia Road, which are close to Xijing Road, also gathered at the border to deter the Jin Kingdom.
Although it is already August,
However, we still encountered several autumn rains along the way.
More than a thousand miles away,
The army marched for a full month.
The second year of the Tianqi reign saw an unusually high amount of rainfall.
Summer grain harvests were successful across all regions.
It was only because the world had just been settled that
