Back to the Song Dynasty as a tyrant

Page 78



Sun Fu said, "Is this how you treat guests?"

What he said in Chinese, few party members around him could understand.

Zhang Chunming translated for Brother Li Cha.

The bearded man said: "A defeated general dares to act presumptuously here and kill you, so what!"

Zhang Chunming translated this sentence for Sun Fu.

Not only was Sun Fu not nervous, but he laughed out loud.

People around didn't understand why he was laughing, they were both curious and angry.

With the knife on his neck, this fellow can still laugh?

After Sun Fu finished laughing, he looked solemn and said, "The words of the defeated general are not true. You should count them carefully. In the battle between Song and Xia, who will win and who will lose?"

"If the general of the Jin army is here and says that I am the general of the defeated army, I have nothing to say, you?"

Sun Fu gave him a "fool" look.

The bearded man was so angry that he almost hacked Sun Fu to death.

After hearing Zhang Chunming's translation, the people around pulled out their knives one by one, eager to try.

Sun Fu glanced at the seats present, and almost said: Everyone present is hot chicken!

"Kill this Song man!"

"My lord, this Song man dared to insult us, so kill him!"

A group of party generals yelled in party language.

Zhang Chunming looked at Sun Fu with a smile on his face, and said, "Emissary Song, you have angered everyone."

Sun Fu was even more eager to raise his head to the sky, and with a look of disdain, he said: "I heard that everyone present here claims to be a real hero, and a certain one is a scholar. Don’t dare to make noise to the Jinren, but vent your anger on me, a powerless scholar, worthy of calling myself a hero?”

Zhang Chunming translated Sun Fu's words truthfully, and a group of party generals were like cats whose tails were stepped on. They wanted to chop Sun Fu into pieces and throw them out to the dogs.

Party generals: Believe it or not, I'll hack you to death!

Sun Fu: Come here!

Party generals: I will hack you to death!

At this time, brother Li Cha said: "Sit back!"

"Your Majesty!"

"quiet!"

As soon as Brother Li Cha spoke, everyone retreated.

Brother Li Cha said in unproficient Chinese: "Emissary Song, there was a little misunderstanding just now, please sit down."

Only then did Sun Fu sit down, and several people who came with Sun Fu were all drenched in cold sweat.

Damn it, Sun Guanren, you are too fierce, ah!

Sun Fu picked up the knife on the table, and the people around him immediately pulled out their knives.

Sun Fu picked up the knife and started cutting the mutton, with a vague smile on his lips.

My old grandson is the last one in the war, but that head is definitely made of steel.

In a word: just not afraid of death!

Brother Li Cha was also taken aback by Sun Fu's aura.

Everyone stopped talking and sat there eating meat and drinking.

Not long after, a group of thin-waisted girls in very thin and transparent clothes came in and performed dances for everyone.

After drinking for three rounds, all the generals left one after another.

Brother Li Cha also retreated to the left and right, leaving Zhang Chunming, Sun Fu and his party here.

Brother Li Cha had a smile on his face, and his tone became gentle: "Emissary Song, there is no one else here, so tell me, come to my Great Summer, what's your business?"

He belongs to the royal family of the party and has read Han family classics since he was a child. He is naturally different from those generals.

"Naturally, I came to Lianxia to fight against gold."

Brother Li Cha said: "Is it true that the Song envoy is not very clear about the current situation?"

Sun Fu thought in his heart that His Majesty the Emperor had guessed correctly, and the other party would definitely ask about the current situation.

Sun Fu said: "Dare to ask Your Majesty, what is the current situation?"

"The three towns of the Song Dynasty were lost, the capital was besieged for nearly half a year, and the army of millions was defeated by the Jin army. The country is about to perish. Why do we want to form an alliance with the Song Dynasty at this time?"

Sun Fu said, "Then why did the Jin people retreat?"

Brother Li Cha thought for a while, and said: "The Jin people go deep into the Song Dynasty, they can't fight for a long time, and they will naturally retreat."

"Your Majesty is right. Jin people go deep into the Song Dynasty and cannot fight for a long time. Why is the country dying soon?"

"Three towns are lost, the Zhe family surrendered, the Chong family and the Yao family all withered, what else does the Song Dynasty have to fight against the Jin army?"

"First, I first stationed 30 troops in various towns in Shaanxi, and the soldiers were more advanced than before; second, the emperor fought the main battle, and the whole country resisted the gold."

Brother Li Cha said again: "Even so, can you win?"

Chapter 104 The game between countries

Although Sun Fu's brain is full of rumors that Guo Jingdiao is a great master, don't forget that he is a firm main fighter!

This guy's attitude towards Jinren is definitely very tough.

He said in a strong tone: "There are tens of thousands of people in the sky, and the power of the whole country. If I die, there will be successors. The defeat of one dynasty is better than a hundred years of effort!"

What this means is that there were tens of millions of people in the Great Song Dynasty who exhausted all the strength of the whole country to fight against the gold. Even if I die, there will be newcomers. Failure is temporary. Even if it takes a hundred years, I will defeat the gold people.

Sun Fu's imposing manner made Brother Li Cha look at him with admiration.

Brother Li Cha said calmly: "The alliance with Song Dynasty, what good is it for us? At least now the Jin envoy promises that as long as Shaanxi is captured, the land of Shaanxi will belong to us."

What the hell!

Sun Fu couldn't help but be surprised that the Jin envoy's promise to Xixia was exactly the same as what the emperor told him.

Your Majesty knows things like a god!

In fact, in the orthodox history, in March of the second year of Jingkang, after Wanyan Loushi defeated Fan Zhixu's Shaanxi King Qin's army, he ceded thousands of miles of northern Shaanxi to Xixia.

This is real.

The purpose of this is to win over Xixia and prevent the Song Xia alliance.

However, Zhao Ning crossed over, defended Tokyo, and stalled the overall situation, causing Wanyan Loushi's army in Tongguan to appear and be forced to retreat.

Shaanxi is still there, and Zhang Jun was thrown there in advance to rectify the defense, and money was desperately stuffed there.

The situation has changed.

At this time, the Jin envoy came to Xixia and said that the Jin army was going to send troops here. Don't get me wrong, they were here to attack Shaanxi in the Song Dynasty.

Why hit Shaanxi?

We hit Shaanxi to give it to you Xixia.

That's right, our Kingdom of Jin is so impartial and selfless.

If you were Li Ganshun, the lord of Xixia, would you believe it?

Not only do you not believe it, but you will probably curse in your heart, "I have no grievances with you, why do you think I am a fool"!

Sun Fu said, "Do you believe the gold thief?"

Brother Li Cha chuckled, and said: "Your Excellency has not answered the king, what are the benefits of alliance with Song State?"

"My court can promise your green and white salt to enter my court, buy and sell freely, and my court will protect your king."

When Brother Li Cha heard this condition, he was a little unconcealably excited.

Qingbai salt is a special product of Xixia. After Li Yuanhao defeated the Song army, he made progress and asked Da Song to import [-] hu of Qingbai salt from Xixia every year.

If so, it is like an enemy.

The Great Song Dynasty has been arguing endlessly about the issue of green and white salt. Some people in the court said that designated trading points should be opened to prevent smuggling.

There are also people who say that green and white salt is strictly prohibited, such as the famous minister Han Qi and Bao Zheng, who are all hard-line prohibitionists.

How did Qingbaiyan threaten Da Song?

The main salt production area in the Song Dynasty was Jie (hai) Prefecture in Hedong (Shanxi Province), and the price was about 44 renminbi a catty.

And how much is the most delicious green salt among the green and white salts?

4 pennies!

This is the price butcher!

It can be said that the main reason for the nearly hundred years of war between Song and Xia was because of salt.

So, the war between countries is not about promoting the country's prestige as the passionate young people say, but about the economy.

Making money and eating is the underlying logic of human society.

War is also a business. The imperial court spends so much money to support the army and fight wars. If the war results in a cost that cannot be recovered, let alone the main combat faction will step down, I am afraid that the domestic economy will also be greatly shaken.

After all, where there is a deficit, the officials will find a way to get it back and fill it.

Where did you get it back from?

Of course it is to plunder the common people.

The Europeans started their great voyages for the same reason as spices.

Therefore, human history is a dry history.

Having said that, Brother Li Cha was very excited, but he still had some fears in his heart.

After all, in the past, Song Xia had a short-term mutual market for green salt, and then the Song Dynasty closed the mutual market.

Brother Li Cha said: "Of course the mutual market is good, but if you go back on your word and close the mutual market, there is nothing we can do."

Sun Fu said again: "Your Majesty, I am still willing to sell silk to you personally at a low price."

Brother Li Cha immediately came to his senses: "Is this really true?"

"Exactly!"

When the silk from the Song Dynasty was sold to Xixia, the price immediately doubled by 10 times.

And it's not just about making money, it's about political influence.

There are also factions in the Xixia Dynasty Hall, and the people named An Hui are all political rivals of Brother Li Cha.

"Emissary Song, let's stop here for today, it's getting late, please come back."

Sun Fu asked: "My lord, how is it?"

Zhang Chunming on the side said, "Officer Sun, please go back."

Sun Fu stood up and led the people away.

At this time, Li Ganshun, the lord of the Xixia Kingdom, was hosting a banquet for Gao Qingyi, the envoy of the Kingdom of Jin.

Gao Qingyi raised his wine glass and said, "Your Majesty, the marshal will attack Song in November this year. At that time, the Xia-Jin alliance will destroy Song!"

Li Qianshun said: "To tell you the truth, I just received news not long ago that the Song army has rectified an army of 50 in Shaanxi, and its momentum is stronger than before. If your country wants to destroy Song, I am afraid it will not be so easy."

"50?"

"That's right, 50!" Li Qianshun said seriously, "I sent spies over to inquire about it. The Song court sent a commander-in-chief named Zhang Jun to Shaanxi to rectify military affairs, and raised 50 troops to publicize important points in Shaanxi. Go eastward to recover Taiyuan and crusade against the Kingdom of Jin."

Gao Qingyi burst out laughing immediately: "Song Jun is no more than a rotten tree, how dare he speak wild words. Once our Great Gold Heavenly Army arrives, those rats will definitely jump up and down and run away."

Even though he said that, he kept a thought in his heart.

Shaanxi was an important military town in the Song Dynasty, and all the elite troops were located in Shaanxi.

Moreover, Shaanxi people are martial and warlike, so they must never underestimate the enemy.

This matter must be reported to the marshal immediately.

Sun Fu did not see Li Qianshun in the end, but before leaving, he met Zhang Chunming.
