I became the son of Renzong

The army is advancing northward every day, and continues to implement the strategy of steady advancement. It only needs to wait for an opportunity to complete the established strategic goal...to wipe out the vital forces of the Northern Liao Dynasty.

What are you talking about with Beiliao at this time?Yan Yun?It's almost certain to be taken down.

Tell Beiliao that our purpose is to cross Yanshan Mountain and point directly to the grassland?Let Beiliao surrender?If Beiliao can agree, there will be no continuous fighting.

"Let's see...~ If the officials feel that there is no need for an interview, the old minister can just send him away."

Seeing that no one answered, Wang Anshi probably understood what you mean.

Even the official family probably didn't see any envoys.

"and many more……"

Wang Anshi was really going to let an official send the envoy away.Zhao Xi stopped it.

"Since Beiliao has sent envoys, I will meet them. See what the intention is, so we can deal with it."

"You may hear a lot of information during the negotiations on the battlefield. I'd better see you."

At this time, the envoys sent by the Northern Liao Dynasty were really weird.

Judging from the number and scale of the imperial army, as well as his own conquests, the ambition of Song Dynasty is already obvious, and it is impossible to stop at Yanyun.

At this time, the Northern Liao sent envoys to mediate...

"His Majesty the Emperor of the Song Dynasty, His Majesty the Daliao sent foreign ministers to meet His Majesty the Emperor of the Song Dynasty, and entrusted the foreign ministers to come with sincerity."

"This is the end of the matter. For the purpose of friendship between the two countries, my Emperor Daliao is going to return all the remaining twelve prefectures of Yanyun to Song."

"My Daliao army withdrew to the north of Yanshan Mountain on the day Song State agreed, and re-determined the border with Song State, and signed a new contract on an auspicious day."

Not surprised, nobody surprised.Before meeting the envoys, everyone had already discussed the bottom line of the Beiliao negotiations at this time.

Now the strengths and weaknesses of both sides are doomed to be compromised by Beiliao.

The focus of the Song and Liao countries is Yan Yun. At this time, the Beiliao can only come up with a bargaining chip to let the Song Dynasty withdraw its troops, and only Yan Yun.

"The twelve prefectures of Yanyun are not enough. Since Beiliao has sincerity, I, Da Song, will also talk about our sincerity."

"Three hundred miles to the northwest of Yanshan Mountain, at the same time, the Liaodong area also belongs to Song Dynasty. Is it possible?"

This was also discussed and used to test the bottom line of Beiliao.

"We can talk about the Liaodong area, three hundred miles to the northwest of Yanshan Mountain... that will include the ancestral land of our Khitan people, that's impossible!"

The envoy left with the question.

However, in Da Song's front-line palace tent, there was some unrest.

"I thought that Beiliao was going to have a decisive battle!"

Chapter 943

Beiliao is going to take the initiative to attack?This is so possible?

What Zhao Xi said made all the important officials a little confused and confused.

This is simply impossible!

Since the start of the war, although it wasn't Song Dynasty who was suppressing Beiliao, he definitely had the upper hand.It would not be said to be crushing, but it can be said to be invincible.

Otherwise, it would not cause Beiliao to send envoys to negotiate at this time and return Yanyun Sixteen Prefectures unconditionally.

Under such circumstances, the Northern Liao Dynasty will launch an attack on the Song Dynasty?No matter how you think about it, it is impossible.

"Officials, the theory of gods and ghosts is pure nonsense! The saint doesn't talk about strange powers..."

The army was already approaching the Gaoliang River, and Wang Anshi thought that Zhao Xi was reminded of the previous defeat of the Gaoliang River.

The defeat of Gaoliang River is different from that of Haoshuichuan.Hao Shuichuan is dominated by Han Qi and Han Zhigui, and victory or defeat has no effect on the officials, and there will be no shadow.

But the Gaoliang River is different. It is the ancestor of the official family. Once again leading an army to the Gaoliang River, it is inevitable that the official family will be a little uneasy...~

Therefore, the officials commanded the Shuichuan to win a big victory, but the command of the Gaoliang River was uncertain...

If I had known this earlier, it would be better to dissuade the officials from conscripting themselves!

Wang Anshi was really worried about the impact of Taizong's defeat on the officials, and even raised the theory of ghosts and gods.

"Gaoliang River? Could it be that we are almost at the Gaoliang River?"

"I think back then, Taizong's personal conquest was defeated at the Gaoliang River. At that time, the strength of the Great Song Dynasty was really no worse than that of the Northern Liao Dynasty. It was also invincible at the beginning, but it was defeated in the end."

"The officials thought of the Gaoliang River, right? Otherwise, they wouldn't have mentioned that the Beiliao would launch an attack."

"Officials can't have messy thoughts!"

For a while, everyone's eyes were on the sand table... It was obvious that the army was really not far from the Gaoliang River.

"What does the king mean? What do you mean by the theory of gods and ghosts? What does it have to do with ghosts and gods when I say that Beiliao will launch an attack?"

Zhao Xi was confused by Wang Anshi's words.Where is it?

"Didn't the housekeeper think about the Battle of Gaoliang River during Taizong's personal conquest?"

Seeing that the officials didn't want to evade, they were really confused, so Wang Anshi asked.

"Taizong's personal conquest?"

Zhao Xi froze for a moment before remembering this.

Later generations called his so-called ancestor the God of Sorghum River Chariot.

How should I put it, there have been analyzes and comments on the defeat at the Gaoliang River, both today and in later generations.

The conclusion is unified, that is, that battle directly shattered Da Song's combat power. Since then, Da Song has become more cowardly, and it has completely wiped out the bravery that Da Song brought from the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms.

There should be three reasons.The first to underestimate the enemy.Before Taizong raided Khitan, he mainly attacked the small country of Northern Han.At that time, the Northern Han Dynasty was backed by Khitan.

Song Taizong attacked the Northern Han Dynasty, the Northern Han Dynasty was defeated, and Khitan came to rescue.As a result, Song Taizong defeated Khitan, and the Khitan reinforcements fled.Song Taizong, who won the victory, soon became proud and complacent, thinking that he was number one in the world, and felt that the Khitan was vulnerable, and it was easy to defeat the Khitan.To underestimate the enemy in war is basically doomed to failure.

The second logistics support is insufficient.Not to mention the rewards of the soldiers, starting from Taiyuan Mansion, crossing Niangziguan, Bauhinia Ridge, and expedition to Youzhou.

In addition, Yizhou and Zhuozhou gave up resistance.As a result, the army advanced too fast in the early stage, and the transfer of food and grass failed to keep up.

The 30 army was far away from the supply, the supply could not keep up, and the veterans of the division were tired, and they were defeated by the Northern Liao Dynasty who waited for work...

Third, the court at that time underestimated the combat power of the Northern Liao Dynasty.At that time, the Northern Liao Dynasty was in the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China, and they were all generals who had experienced great battles...~
