I am not Song Qinzong

At this moment, the Khitan people knew that the Liao Kingdom was about to perish.

However, in the process, the Jurchens let go of Youzhou, which is close at hand.

In the original trajectory, the Song and Jin alliances, and Youzhou belonged to the goals of the Song State, so the Jurchens did not move.

Now, the same is true.

The reason for this period was definitely not that the Jurchens didn't want to devour this piece of fat.

Youzhou belonged to the Han area in ancient times, and there are many Han people, so there are many cities and a developed economy. It is a fertile place for any country.

If the Jurchens didn't come to fight here, although they had plans to capture the thief first, they were afraid that they would not be able to take it down.

Yelu Yanxi fled to the west, but Yelu Chun and Yelu Dashi stayed behind in Nanjing and stationed in Youzhou.

These two are both capable and famous, even the Jurchens dare not underestimate them.

In addition, the Jurchens' ability to attack the city is worrying, and they dare not move lightly.

Of course, the most important thing is Yelu Dashi's ability.

In order to resist the Jurchens, Yelu Dashi consolidated his defenses while befriending Zongze, and at the same time publicized that Song and Liao had formed an alliance to deter the Jurchens.

Facts have proved that this series of measures is very effective.

Now, for the sake of the country, Yelu Dashi did not hesitate to sacrifice his knees, but he deserves a hero's praise.

After talking about Ping, Zhao Huan said: "Why is the unknown big stone coming?"

Yelu Dashi said: "One is to congratulate Your Majesty on his succession, the other is to pay tribute to the late emperor, and the third is to ask for help."

Zhao Huan's accession to the throne and Zhao Ji's death are two extremely important news, big enough to affect the surrounding situation.

Therefore, the court notices are also sent to various countries.

Not only the Liao Kingdom, but also the Jin Kingdom, Xixia, Goryeo, Dali, Li Dynasty, Champa and other countries all sent envoys.

This Yelu Dashi was the first to receive an imperial edict.

Hearing his blunt request for support, Zhao Huan smiled and said: "Right now, the Jurchens are in dire straits. Even if our country gives support, I am afraid that your country will not be able to recover. You can switch to our country, and I will grant you a country male!"

This Yelu Dashi is indeed worth recruiting.

Not to mention anything else, just saying that after the Liao Kingdom was completely destroyed, he went on an expedition with more than [-] entourages and rebuilt the Western Liao Dynasty, which is not something ordinary people can do.

"Thank you for your love, Your Majesty, but as a Liao minister, I shall live and die with the country." Yelu Dashi bowed.

"Since that's the case, what's the benefit of supporting?" Zhao Huan asked rhetorically.

"Your Majesty, there are still soldiers and horses in Youzhou, and a large area of ​​land in the west has not been lost. If the upper kingdom supports money and food, I can lead troops to the west to rectify the soldiers and horses in various places to resist the Jurchens.

At the same time, if I return to the country and make a gesture of sending troops, it will also make the Kingdom of Jin afraid, and dare not go west with all its strength, so as to gain a breathing space for me.

In this way, Guozuo of the Liao Kingdom must be preserved. " Yelu Dashi said.

Zhao Huan shook his head and said: "Yelu Yanxi is in power, he will not let you do anything!"

"His Majesty Haojiao learned that when he came, I had already negotiated with the King of Jin and planned to abolish Yelu Yanxi Palace and let the King of Jin preside over the overall situation." Yelu Dashi said.

After hearing this, Zhao Huan fell into thinking.

It turned out that in order to save the nation and survive, Yelu Dashi supported Jin Wang Yeluchun as emperor, and indeed stabilized the situation for a short time.

It's a pity that Yelu Yanxi kept dragging its feet, Yelu Chun died in half a year, Song and Jin attacked at the same time, and Yelu Dashi's painstaking management turned into running water.

However, even if Song Guo gave him support, he might still have to follow the old path.

In the grassland and desert in the west, there is no danger to defend. Yelu Dashi led the remnants of the defeated generals, and they could not stop the arrogant soldiers of the Kingdom of Jin.

However, Zhao Huan still planned to give him some support.

One is to consume some Jin Guo's strength, and the other is to let Yelu Dashi continue his future journey and explore the road first.

"Okay, since you are sure, how much money and food do you need?" Zhao Huan asked.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, Long En!" Yelu Dashi was overjoyed, and bowed: "The more support the better, only then can we be sure to resist the Jurchens."

"How many soldiers and horses can you organize in Youzhou?" Zhao Huan asked.

"Don't dare to lie to Your Majesty, but we can organize an army of [-] horse infantry, but the weapons and armor are all lacking, and the food and grass are not enough." Yelu Dashi replied.

Zhao Huan pondered for a moment, and said: "In this case, I will give you 50 sets of armor, [-] arrows, and [-] weapons. As for food and grass, I will give you [-] shi in Youzhou. How about giving you one hundred thousand stones?"

Yelu Dashi paid homage again: "Thank you, Your Majesty. After I return, I will immediately hand over Youzhou and rectify the troops and march westward."

The support promised by Zhao Huan was carefully discussed by the Privy Council.

It can be guaranteed that the Liao army is armed, but it will not become the captain of the transportation brigade.

At the same time, control the grain and grass to ensure that Yelu Dashi will not stay in Youzhou and can only go to confront the Jurchens.

Of course, the cost is not small, but it is also affordable.

The armor and weapons are all obsolete and inferior products from the previous inventory, which saves the Liao Kingdom from returning to the furnace.

As for food and grass, there is no way to do this, it is a real consumption.

"That's right." Zhao Huan added: "After you go back, ask Yeluchun to present himself as a minister and determine the title of master and servant."

"Your Majesty, don't worry, when I replace Yelu Yanxi, I will immediately proclaim myself a minister!" Yelu Dashi said.

"Well, only Khitan has become a vassal state, so I can question Jurchen to buy time for you." Zhao Huan nodded.

With the title of master and slave, Song Guo can embarrass Jin Guo in an open and honest manner.

After all, the boss can't just watch his younger brother being bullied and remain indifferent, he has to show something anyway.

320 Eight Hongwu first year

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, the weather was fine, Zhao Huan was walking casually on the street with his son in his arms, Zhu Lian and Liang Hongyu were accompanying him, and Zhu Fengying was bouncing forward and back.

During the New Year's Eve, it's normal to drag the family out for a stroll, so no one cares.
