Chapter 956

However, what Xiao Wuna didn't expect was that after waiting for another two full days in Xiazhou, the imperial decree from Emperor Yelu Hongji of the Daliao Dynasty came long overdue.

Xiao Wuna, who was full of expectations, bowed down and received the decree, after listening to the decree of the Daliao emperor, his face turned dark immediately. The entire imperial decree did not mention the plan he mentioned before, but only praised himself, and then praised himself. After some encouragement from the previous achievements, I just hope that I can rush back to Shangjing as soon as possible and return to work as soon as possible.

"Lord Han, apart from asking you to come here to announce the decree, His Majesty has no other excuses?" After receiving the decree, Xiao Wuna didn't care about losing his composure, and dragged the decree official to a secluded place to ask.

"Boss, Your Majesty has indeed given you an order. You are loyal to Daliao. I am very pleased. However, Daliao has already owed too much to Xixia, so we can't live too close." Lord Han lowered his voice. Said.

"Your Majesty, did he say that?" Xiao Wuna's face became more and more ugly, but he still did not give up and asked.Master Han sighed lightly, nodded, and said no more.

"Your Majesty's doing this is simply, simply... Alas!" Xiao Wuna stomped her feet angrily, but there was nothing she could do.

Master Han bowed to Xiao Wuna, and then went to convey His Majesty's other wishes to Yelu Da Dun.

It was night, when Xiao Wuna, who never gave up, found Yelu Datun, Yelu Datun could only helplessly spread his hands. "It's not that the lower officials don't want to help you, my lord, but your Majesty has an order. My Daliao and Xixia are the countries of the son-in-law, so we should not lightly provoke border disputes. If the lower officials violate it, then it is defiant and disobedient."

Facing obstacles everywhere, Xiao Wuna finally gave up his heart, and left Xiazhou that night, but Xiao Wuna deliberately took a detour along the Wuding River.

Looking at the other side of the Wuding River, the city of Shizhou, which was dotted with flames, finally left a long sigh, reined in and walked away without looking back.

"As my lord expected, the people of Song really wanted to go to Shizhou..." In Shizhou city, a military general couldn't help but bitterly said after reading the letter sent by the Pochao Xinde sent from Hongzhou.

"My lord, is there really no way to defend Shizhou?"

"How can we defend? Our current military rations can only last for a month at most, and now, on the Wuding River, there are Song navy sailors after all. Whether I am in Daxia or the Liao Kingdom, I have never been good at water warfare. We are invincible in foot battles." , but on the surface of the water, how do you fight against the navy of Song State?"

"As long as the other party guards the Wuding River, they can starve to death our more than [-] soldiers and civilians in Shizhou City."

Ren Duo Zongbao waved his hands weakly and stopped.

"That's enough. I'm not asking you to come here today to argue about whether Shizhou should be defended or not. There is no need to discuss this issue anymore. I hope you can comfort yourself in the coming days. The soldiers and civilians in Shizhou, when the time comes, I can withdraw from Shizhou and go to Xingqing Mansion."

"Sir, do we really have no solution at all? If we lose even Shizhou, then I, Daxia, will have no place to stand in this land east of the river."

"This commander doesn't know, it's just that the matter has come to this point, and it's useless to say more. After all, with the soldiers and horses in Shizhou alone, in this isolated and helpless situation, you think you can recover the fallen Longzhou. Can't make it with Yinzhou?"

"What's more, Longzhou and Yinzhou have already become the trophies of the Song people. On the south bank of the Wuding River, only Shizhou is still in my hands. Do you think the Song people will be so stupid as to lie on the side of the couch and let others Can't sleep soundly?"

"...Yes, Your Majesty, so I feel that Lord Zhongshu Ling's proposal is the most appropriate plan at present. Shizhou is the most powerful bargaining chip in my hands in Daxia. As for other conditions, , in fact, there is room for discussion, but Shizhou..."

"If Shizhou does not fall into the hands of the Song people, the Song people will not reach a peace agreement with me, Daxia."

Listening to the analysis of Wei Ming Wu, Li Qianshun's haggard face showed no expression at all, only the flickering eyes from time to time seemed to be able to bring a little vitality to the Xixia king.

"...Your Majesty, Your Majesty! The old minister thinks that if I, Daxia, want to appease Song Ting's anger, the only way to go is to sacrifice Shizhou." Seeing this His Majesty, who is obviously out of his mind, Wei Shi A Wu was also helpless, but these things required him, the top decision-maker of Daxia, to make decisions.

"Sacrificing Shizhou, can I really save the country in the west of Daxia?" Li Qianshun, who gradually came back to his senses, finally fell on Weiming Wu.

"Your Majesty, the old minister feels that this is the only way that the Song Kingdom, which is now showing its fangs, can stop fighting. Let Daxia win a respite. The important thing is that Shizhou is alone, even if we don't agree, With Song Ting's current strength, it can still be taken by force."

"It's better to take Shizhou as a hole card for peace talks, and ask your majesty for permission." A Wu, who was named Wu, replied with a deep obeisance to the ground.

"Since both you and Ren Duoqing think it's feasible, let's do it, I'm tired..." Li Qianshun nodded numbly, and waved his hands weakly.

Wu, whose name is Wei, stepped out of the hall slowly, while Li Qianshun was still sitting in the hall, like a wooden body carved in clay, hidden deep in the shadow of the lamp.

Weiming Awu took a deep breath, raised his head, and looked at the clear night sky. The bright starry sky was still as bright as ever, but how much peace and time did the people of Daxia have to enjoy such beauty? of night.

"Drink the dove to quench your thirst, but if you don't drink this cup of dove wine, Daxia, I'm afraid he will collapse at this moment. If he can hold on for a while longer, he might have a chance to recover..." Wei Ming Ah Wu muttered to himself.

Zhu Guangting, who was at ease in the residence and kept a low profile in the name of recuperating, never thought of it.He had just rested for two or three days, and that bastard Wang Yang came to provoke him again.

"Wang Wushan asked Gu Leguang, the deputy envoy of Xixia, to collect evidence of bribing the old man?!..." Zhu Guangting felt his heart almost stop beating, and looked at the confidant standing in front of him with a confused face.

"That's right, I heard that this is the condition of the negotiation he proposed... This villain only found out after exhausting all his efforts, and he has already found several people to confirm it, so there should be nothing wrong." The attendant wiped the sweat from his forehead, carefully observing the Elder Zhu in front of him.

"Wang Yang, Wang Wushan, what is he trying to do? He wants to kill this old man?!" Zhu Guangting's eyes twitched, and he slapped the desk hard, shouting sharply.

"Master, please calm down. His Majesty, King Wushan, has won your favor again. This is an innocuous matter. He will never be able to hurt you, master. What's more, all the adults in the court are united with you, master." ..."
