One day after the break, on the third day, with the mediation of the Western Xia envoys, the three envoys sat together again, but the protagonist of the negotiation was changed to Song Xia, and the Liao Kingdom lost its position as a referee and became a witness and an audience.

Get a place in a corner of the big tent.([] )

The three guards were all ten steps away from the big tent and could only hear the debates coming from time to time in the tent, but could not hear them in detail. This kind of work is boring, annoying and helpless, Zhao Xin paced back and forth

Take steps to drive away the severe cold of winter.

At this time, a whisper came from nearby. Zhao Xin looked over there and saw a team of guards following Yeluding. The number was about 500, but the number was obviously divided into two parts, one was brightly dressed and the battle robe was gorgeous.

, the weapons are exquisite and gorgeously decorated. Although the other part has a large number of people, they are much worse in terms of armor and weapons. And the people shouted like mailbaby, and the errands of the guards of the big tent fell on these people.

On his body, more than a dozen people on the turn gathered together to chat with nothing. Zhao Xin was a little lost when he listened to these people's familiar and unfamiliar voices, as if he had returned to his childhood at home in a dream.

"Captain, take a little wine to get rid of the cold air!" Just as Zhao Xin was listening to the gossip of the Liao soldiers, Sha Dui walked over and handed her a wine bag.

"Thank you, I have the responsibility, I told you not to drink too much!" Although the army banned alcohol on weekdays, the prince was still very considerate and allowed people who were performing missions in the wild to drink less and drive away the cold. Zhao Xin waved his hand, but she looked back.

I found that the Liao soldiers suddenly silenced, and their eyes were staring at the wine bag in Shadui's hand and changed their minds again. "Shadui. Get me the grain bag and wine again!"

Although Sha Dui didn't understand the meaning, he still obeyed the order and brought two bags of wine quickly. "Brothers, let's have a drink together!" Zhao Xin shouted to the Liao envoy guards over there.

"This..." The Liao army looked at one person. The man was obviously their leader. He pondered for a moment, "thank you, everyone lighted the fire and brought the jerky we brought to drink!"

The Khitans are as good as Dangxiang people, which may be due to their living environment. When they see wine, they are more close to everything. Seeing the leader agreeing, they cheered and gathered around, set up a bonfire, and took out some cold dryness from their luggage.

The meat was roasted on the fire, and before the meat was roasted, I couldn't wait to take the wine bag and drink it.

"General, what a good wine!" The leader took a big mouthful and praised, handing the wine bag to Zhao Xin.

"General, please drink less. This is sour wine, and it has a lot of energy!" Zhao Xin took the wine bag and dipped it in his lips, and passed it to the next person.

"The general is from Liao, and he speaks Khitan so well!" The leader said in surprise when he saw Zhao Xin answering in Khitan.

"Haha, this is Commander Zhao, the guard of Prince Yan of our Song Dynasty. How could it be a Liao person!" Sha Dui answered on the side for Zhao Xin.

"Oh, brothers are very promising at such a young age!" The leader of the Liao army also felt absurd. How could a guard of a prince of the Song Dynasty choose a Liao people?

"Since everyone is a brother after drinking together, don't call him a general. Don't know the name of a brother?" Zhao Xin asked.

"Our leader is Xiao Chongde, the young lord of Yuanzhou City. This time he led the tribal army to escort His Highness the King of Qin to discuss peace!" said a Liao army soldier.

"Yuanzhou Xiao Chongde..." After hearing this, Zhao Xin trembled in his hand and almost landed on the ground.

"Oh, has Commander Zhao been to Yuanzhou?" Xiao Chongde cut off a piece of roasted meat with a knife and handed it to Zhao Xindao.

"No. I just heard of it!" Zhao Xin also realized that he had lost his composure and immediately calmed down. "Brother Xiao's short knife is so beautiful, can you lend me a look?" She felt a trembling heart when she saw Xiao Chongde's short knife cutting meat.

Said calmly.

"What's wrong with this?" Xiao Chongde rubbed the knife against his clothes and handed it to Zhao Xin inverted the handle.

"This knife is really exquisite. Is it very common for Brother Xiao to have a knife in the Great Liao Dynasty?" Zhao Xin played with it and handed it back.

"Brother Zhao, you are wrong. This knife was made by my father who specially invited craftsmen to Beijing. A total of five were made and distributed to our brothers and sisters. Look at our clan emblem on it!" Xiao Chongde

He waved his hand and pointed to the carved pattern on the hilt of the knife to show Zhao Xin.

"I am bullied in the tent, but you slaves are drinking with the Song people..." Just as everyone was happy, Yelu Ding suddenly came out of the tent, cursing and whipping at Xiao Chongde and beating him

.

"Your Majesty calms down, we just drink to drive away the cold, and there is no other intention!" Xiao Chongde almost fell down after being whipped to the face, but he did not dare to resist, turned over and knelt down and explained.

"There is no good thing for the Song people, get out!" Yelu Ding glared at Zhao Xin and others with hatred and turned around and left. It was obvious that he was being frustrated in front of Zhao Qi again and exhaled his anger on his subordinates.

"Brother Zhao, I'm sorry, see you next day!" Xiao Chongde had some reason to have a good impression of the Song general he had just met, and covered his face and smiled apologetically at him.

"Brother Xiao, don't say it anymore, come back quickly!" Zhao Xin took out a bottle of golden sore medicine from his pocket and stuffed it into Xiao Chongde's hand. He sat down sadly until he got on his horse, picked up the wine bag and drank deeply...

.

.........

"Zhao Xin, are you worried?" Zhao Qiong said, "The knife in his hand. These days he is teaching Zhao Xin's sword techniques every day to let her master the newly obtained Miao knife as soon as possible. He has been holding the knife.

The key points are to use the knife to the use of fighting, and to teach chopping little by little, but today I found that Zhao Xin was not very interested.

"Second Master, no, I'm just a little irritable!" Zhao Xin also withdrew his knife and lowered his head and said.

"Don't feel well?" Zhao Qiong reached out to touch Zhao Xin's forehead and asked with concern.

"No, I'm fine!" Zhao Xin shook his head and said with his head down.

"Then let's get to practice here today!" Zhao Qi said to Zhao Xin's absent-minded look.

"Zhao Xin, did you meet someone today?" The two returned to the house. Zhao Xin served the prince to change his clothes and bring tea. He sat down next to him and carefully wiped the knife the prince gave her. Zhao Zhen thought.

This morning, Zhao Xin escorted him to negotiate. There was nothing wrong, but when he came back, he became like this. He drank a sip of water and asked.

"Second Master, today I saw the people of Liao, and suddenly... I remembered some old things." Zhao Xin said with his head down.

"Oh, seeing them, do you think of your family?" Zhao Qiong said.

"Well, I remembered when I was a child, whenever my father went out, there were many soldiers and generals who were just like them, and he wondered if the people at home were still alive." Zhao Xin said, with tears in his eyes.

"You can escape, and the people in your family can do it. They will definitely be alive and will definitely be reunited one day!" Zhao Qi took Zhao Xin and comforted him.

"Second Master, is the Song Dynasty going to go to war with the Liao Kingdom? Should we conquer the Liao Kingdom after the peace talks are over?" Zhao Xin asked on the prince's shoulder.

"Song and Liao are old enemies. The two sides have been in conflict for a hundred years. Now that the Jurchens are rising, the Liao Kingdom is invincible. For their own purposes, some people in the court instigated the emperor to take the opportunity to send troops and take the opportunity to get a share of the pie!" Zhao Qi did not answer directly, and patted him gently.

Zhao Xindao, "Tactically speaking, the Jin Dynasty attacked Liao Dynasty. After the Song Dynasty seized the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun, it could change the situation where the Central Plains region had no danger to defend for a hundred years and had to rely on an army with a large number of troops to defend passively.

But from a strategic perspective, this is a stupid move. The Khitan was influenced by the Han rites and was no longer a nomadic people who ate raw meat and drank blood. It has achieved the co-governance of the North and South hospitals. It has basically been Chineseized. The old neighbors who have been fighting for more than a hundred years have basically fought for many years, but they are basically

The Jin Kingdom has just been in a state of enlightenment, so I don’t know any etiquette. It is impossible for a wolf who has eaten meat to become a vegetarian sheep. The powerful force, coupled with the increasingly cruel and violent nature, is really too dangerous

"

"The Song and Jin countries are thousands of miles apart and do not have hatred. Can't they live in peace?" Zhao Xin asked.

"No, what is coming will be an era of prey on the weak, and there are only annexation and anti-annexation, suppression and anti-suppression between countries. Even the Song and Liao dynasties formed friendship after the Battle of Chanyuan.

Alliance. I want the Jin Kingdom to let go of such a delicious piece of fat meat just because the Song Dynasty has no old grudge with it. That is a fool. As long as the Liao Kingdom perishes, the Song and Jin Kingdom will turn to confrontation, and now they are waving their tails and begging for mercy.

Xixia would also wait for an opportunity to get a share of the pie. At that time, it was the time when there was no righteous battle in the Spring and Autumn Period, the princes fought in chaos, and the heroes were competing for the Central Plains again!" Zhao Qi said, stroking Zhao Xin's beautiful hair.

"So now that Liao cannot defeat Jin and the Song Dynasty does not want to be neighbors with Jin, what should we do?" Zhao Xin curled up in the prince's arms and asked with his face up.

"There is only one way to help Liao destroy Jin, and concentrate the elites of the two countries to strangle the Jin Kingdom, the world-destroying danger, to death in the cradle!" Zhao Qi said.

"So, the Second Master wants to send troops to help Liao?" Zhao Xin asked again with a refreshed spirit.

"If it were possible five years ago, the Jurchens have now established a country and captured half of the Liao Kingdom, and it was as if the Liao Kingdom was at its peak. At this time, even if the Song Dynasty was willing to join forces with Liao to resist Jin, it would be too late, and the Liao Kingdom was just destruction.

The question of time. And all I can mobilize and be loyal to me is the loyal army of the Loyal and Brave Army, which is less than 20,000. Now, in terms of quantity, quality, spirit, and material preparation, we cannot complete such a arduous task. Besides, the father is now

Prepare to promote the whole country to attack Liao. If I help Liao, wouldn’t it be a rebellious minister and traitor who can be punished? All I can do is to get Yanyun at all costs, build a northern defense line, and do a good job in the future war.

Preparation!" Zhao Qiong said in a heavy mood.

"Then the Second Master's Western Expedition was to destroy the living power of Xixia and prevent him from taking the opportunity to harass the Song Dynasty in the next battle. Recently, he deliberately angered the Xia envoy of Liao's country in peace talks, and also to find an excuse to start a war with Liao in the future.

Now?" Zhao Xin asked again. (To be continued...)
