Fanwaizhi 33 The Golden Thief listened, I still have 800,000 coins in the Song Dynasty! Ask for a monthly pass)

As soon as he heard "peacemaking" and "annual monies", Cao Li's eyes shone!

The current situation in Junzhou is very similar to that in Chanzhou (Zhenzhou is Kaide Prefecture, right next to Junzhou)!

The Liao army was alone in the past, and the Jin thieves were actually alone in the past. The Liao army was set at the city of Chanzhou, and the Jin thieves vanguards were also set at the time. The Emperor Zhenzong of the world crossed the river and now the officials crossed the river. The Liao army could not defeat Chanzhou, and there were many important places behind it. The Jin thieves are still in the hands of the Song army. Today, it is difficult for the Jin thieves to capture the Tiancheng Fort in Junzhou, and there are also a bunch of cities behind it. Of course, the biggest similarity is that the envoy of the Song State who was in charge of the peace talks was Cao (Cao Yong), and Cao Li was also in the hands of Cao!

Cao Yong was later appointed as the Minister of Shangshu Zuo Pushe and Shizhong, and became Prime Minister Cao!

When Cao Li thought that he had the opportunity to be Prime Minister Cao, his spirit suddenly came, but he would not let it go easily... He had to get Zhao Kai's correct words! He also had to get a bigger official.

"Your Majesty," Cao Li said, "I wonder what name should I go to the Jin camp under?"

In what name?

Zhao Kai was a little stunned when Cao Li asked. He didn't think so much. He wanted to send someone to write a war letter. Seeing Cao Li looking so proud, he sent his job. Seeing that Cao Li was so hesitant that he didn't dare to go, he used peace talks to deceive him... Unexpectedly, this guy took it seriously!

"Then what name do you want?" Zhao Kai didn't think about it, so he let Cao Li think about it himself.

Cao Li was born after Cao Bin. He had been a military officer for generations. He had long forgotten the ability to fight wars, but he was very proficient in the rules of the officialdom and immediately thought of a name for himself.

"Your Majesty, I think I should go to the Jin camp under the name of personally escorting the camp and visiting the envoys."

The envoy who was honest and visited was the original envoy who was responsible for official affairs. During the Zhenghe period, the official title was changed. As usual, this assignment should be served by an ambassador and above. The responsibility of the assignment was to supervise the generals, personnel, affairs, border defense and illegal affairs of the prefectures and counties. In fact, it was the lieutenant sent by the emperor to the local area.

Of course, Zhao Kai's army did not need to visit envoys or visit envoys in the inner court (usually, a double member, a military minister), but if Gao Qiu was the one who commanded the army here in Sanshan Fuqiao, then the Song Dynasty court would definitely send visit envoys or inspectors to watch it carefully.

"Then I will grant you a visit to the Independent," Zhao Kai paused and said, "The Independent Envoy must be at least an ambassador. Then I will transfer a few officials to be the eighth-rank Xiuwulang... Cao Li, this official position in the court cannot be granted casually, do you understand?"

When Cao Li heard this, he bowed and shouted: "Don't worry, your Majesty, I will fulfill my mission!"

Zhao Kai nodded and was about to say a few words of encouragement, Cao Li said again: "Your Majesty, if the Jin thief is really willing to withdraw his troops... this annual monies should be much suitable?"

Annual monies?

Zhao Kai's face turned gloomy when he heard this. How could he give annual monies? The Song Dynasty, it seems that he often gives annual monies! He gave Xixia to the Great Liao Dynasty, and in history, he also gave annual monies to the Great Jin Dynasty. I wonder if he gave annual monies to the Mongolians?

"Give it, how much is appropriate?" Zhao Kai looked around.

He Guan laughed and said, "Your Majesty, why don't you give me 800,000 guan! We don't have 800,000 imperial guards now, so we can only give 800,000 guan annual guan first..."

The 800,000 imperial guards cannot be obtained, but the 800,000-year-old monarch is a piece of cake for the Song Dynasty!

The Song Dynasty had money! But can this money be used to support the enemy? Zhao Kai frowned and turned his attention to Han Shizhong.

Han Shizhong smiled and said, "Your Majesty, as long as the Jin thieves are willing to withdraw their troops and restore their borders before the war, we will not give us 800,000!"

This is really not much! Han Shizhong proposed to restore the border before the war, that is, the Song Dynasty took back the Yanshan Prefecture Road.

But this is impossible!

Can you still expect the big bad wolf to let go when this big meat comes into the wolf's mouth?

Moreover, Yanshanfu Road is the original portal for the Jin thieves to rob money in the invasion of the Central Plains! Once it is taken back by the Song Dynasty, if it is taken back, spend some time to make a good defense, can the Jin thieves come back for the second time?

Thinking of this, Zhao Kai nodded and said sternly: "As long as the Jin thieves are willing to restore the border before the war, I will be willing to give 800,000 yuan in life! If the Jin thieves are unwilling to withdraw their troops, then I will personally lead 800,000 imperial guards to fight the thieves to the death in the north of the Yellow River!

Cao Li, go and tell the Jin thief Wushu that if they are unwilling to withdraw their troops and get annual tribute, hurry up and call Olibu and Jiemu to lead the troops to fight!

The 800,000 imperial guards or 800,000 yuan in their own monies, will be chosen by the Jin thief!”

Cao Li bowed and bowed, "I received the order!"

......

"A clean interview with the envoy? What official is this?"

Just one hour after Cao Li left Tiancheng Castle, Jin Wushu received a report from his subordinates, saying that he had visited the envoy of Lian, and also brought Taiwei Gao's letter of war and the words of the Song Dynasty officials.

Jin Wushu didn't know what a clean visit was, so he asked Guo Yaoshi.

"Report to the Fourth Prince," Guo Yaoshi smiled, "The so-called envoy to visit the Imperial College is a spy sent by the Southern officials to the local and military, specifically monitoring whether the generals and guards have acted unjustly..."

"Oh..." Jin Wushu nodded, "So, is this envoy who visited Lian from the Southern Officials?"

Guo Yaoshi said: "The envoy who visited Lian is not controlled by Lu Zheng, and only listens to the words of the Southern Emperor... So this envoy should have come with the emperor's order."

Jin Wushu asked thoughtfully: "So, the officials of the southerners do not trust Gao Qiu?"

Guo Yaoshi snorted and said, "The officials of the southerners only believe in civil officials and civil officials, not military officials, and also like to remotely control commands in the palace in the capital, and also called it: Generals are from the main command. Therefore, this visit to the integrity must have been ordered by the emperor!"

Jin Wushu knew it, but he still didn't forget to take the opportunity to hit Guo Yaoshi, and said with a smile: "Then when Guo Liushou was an official in the Southern Dynasty, did you also let the envoys visiting the integrity monitor?"

Pharmacist Guo smiled awkwardly, "Of course there are people around Xiaguan who are also visiting the integrity..."

Jin Wushu asked with a smile: "Then they didn't realize you have any ruthless acts?"

Guo Yaoshi's forehead was filled with cold sweat. It was hard to be a slave of the three surnames! It was even more difficult to be a slave of the three surnames for the Jin people! When he was a slave of the two surnames for Zhao Ji, although many civil officials suspected that he wanted to be a "Guo Lushan", Zhao Ji was still treating him well. Not only did he hand over the land and wealth of Yanshan Prefecture to him to raise soldiers, but he also allocated a lot of other property to him. Guo Yaoshi's ever-winning army could also expand from 8,000 to 50,000, and even trained 300,000 village troops.

He thought that after he defected to the Jin people, he could maintain his original treatment and not be suspicious. As a result... the treatment was directly zeroed! More than 80% of the military power was deprived, leaving only the original 8,000 permanently victorious troops, and the suspicion was increased several times!

Before, there were only a few Song Dynasty civil officials who did not have a knife in their hands to submit memorials, but now the second prince, Olibu and the fourth prince Wushu, who hold heavy troops, could not trust him!

This is just that there is no penny, and then I put the knife around my neck and asked if he was loyal or not!

Seeing Guo Yaoshi sweating in a cold sweat, Wu Shu laughed a few times and ordered his left and right to say, "Go and call the envoy from the southerners in to speak!"

......

Cao Li was a single horse and entered the Jin army camp with the flag stabbed by the word "military envoy". The reason for this was mainly because he was afraid that his entourage would let go of his words in the Jin army camp.

Of course, in the eyes of Jin Wushu, Guo Yaoshi, and Wanyan Alu, Cao Li came alone with a secret, and he needed to carry out a mission with Gao Qiu on his back.

Because Cao Li can't speak Jurchen or Khitan, Jin Wushu arranged for Guo Yaoshi to make a guest appearance in a temporary guest.

Cao Li first took out the "Gao Qiu" war letter, which was written by Zhao Kai for Gao Qiu! The content is very simple, it is to tell the Jin people that the Song Dynasty officials would lead the imperial army to personally fight and lead 800,000 imperial guards to the Sanshan Floating Bridge! If the Jin people were unwilling to withdraw their troops, then make an appointment to have a fight at the foot of Dali Mountain on the north bank of the Yellow River!

"Eight hundred thousand..." Before Guo Yaoshi translated Cao Li's words into Jurchen, he had already questioned them first. "Your Taiwei Gao is not afraid of the wind and his tongue! Where do you southerners have so many imperial guards?"

Cao Li smiled treacherously when he heard this, looking at Guo Yaoshi and said, "If Guo Du doesn't believe it, you can follow me to count the camp of Gao Taiwei's camp... The 800,000 imperial guards are still a little short of now, but the 400,000 have arrived! When more than 100,000 people from your second prince arrive, the troops and soldiers from all over the world led by the Song Dynasty official family should also arrive. At that time, the world's soldiers gathered, and the number of 800,000 is probably more than 800,000! Guo Du trusts or not, you can go and count them one by one!"

Seeing that Cao Li said it was like a real person, Guo Yaoshi was a little confused... Could it be that there was really an army of 800,000?

There are more than one translator present, and there are also a few Bohai people who understand Chinese, Khitan, and Jurchen. They have translated the contents of Cao Li and Guo Yaoshi into Jurchen.

Jin Wushu also frowned. There are really 800,000 imperial guards!

The Dajin East Road Army had only 150,000 yuan in full battle, and 800,000 yuan was more than 150,000 yuan in total... This battle seems not easy to fight! Even if it wins, Dajin will suffer heavy losses!

Thinking of this, Jin Wushu interrupted, "Master Guo, ask him, if we withdraw our troops, how many benefits will the Southern people give?"

Yaoshi Guo immediately translated this sentence into Chinese.

Cao Li touched his beard and smiled and said, "Guo Du, tell the fourth prince of the Jin people that my Song Dynasty has a good life and is unwilling to kill people! So in addition to the 800,000 soldiers, the official family also prepared 500,000 yuan in annual monies... As long as the Jin soldiers are willing to retreat and restore the borders of the two countries before the war begins, our dynasty can give the Jin people 500,000 yuan in annual monies every year!"

Guo Yaoshi turned around and said to Jin Wushu: "Fourth Prince, the Song people are willing to buy 500,000 yuan in their lives to withdraw our troops...but they demanded the resumption of the border before the war, that is, they wanted to return to Yanshan Mansion Road."
