Chapter 502
Speaking of which, the Song Dynasty and Xixia belonged to the Tang Dynasty before.At the end of the Tang Dynasty, Li Sigong, the Tuoba leader of the Dangxiang clan, was conferred the title of envoy of the Dingnan Army and the land of Wuzhou by the Tang Emperor because of his meritorious service in pacifying Huangchao.
At that time, the Dangxiang clan submitted to the Tang Dynasty, the Five Dynasties regimes and the Northern Song Dynasty successively.
Later, after Song Taizu Zhao Kuangyin annexed the land of Wuzhou, Li Jiqian left to start a business, and the enmity between the two parties formed.
Later, the Liao Kingdom and the Song Dynasty fought, and the enemy's enemy was a friend, so the Liao Kingdom named the place occupied by the Dangxiang tribe as the Xia Kingdom, and their king was called the Xia King.
The name Xixia, because they were in the west of the Song Dynasty, was called Xixia by the Song people.
After the establishment of Xixia, they successively occupied the states in the Hexi Corridor.
Later, Li Yuanhao, the hero of Xixia, proclaimed himself emperor and founded the country.
Later, Xixia won the Song Xia War and the Liao Xia War, and gradually formed a situation of the three kingdoms.
The Xixia Kingdom in Li Yuanhao's time was indeed very powerful. Although it was poor and backward, it really had the spirit of Brother Pingtou who was not afraid of death and tiredness.
No matter how you fight, I will never shoot to death.
This kind of spirit even defeated the Daliao Kingdom at that time.
It's just that it's easy to fight the country, but it's difficult to do it.
When these ancestors started their businesses in the early stage, they were not afraid of difficulties, but after the real founding of the country, the younger generations no longer had the spirit of hard work that their ancestors had at that time.
After enjoying the comfort of prosperity and wealth, this group of people lost their fighting spirit. Facing the menacing Mongolian cavalry, at this time, it seemed that the only option was surrender.
"This is the situation now. If we don't bring back the army from the Eastern Front, we don't have to wait for the Song Dynasty to attack us. Even the Mongolian army can't resist it."
Liu Yuan said tit for tat.
"Your Majesty, this time the Song Dynasty actually took the initiative to reveal the news to us. I think they should have no malice towards us this time. Otherwise, they could have waited until the Mongolian army and us were both wounded, and another fisherman would benefit. But they didn't, this Time, we might as well ask them for help!"
Li Daoji interjected at this time.
After a pause, he continued:
"And Your Majesty, after all, we have been dealing with the Song Dynasty for a long time, but we have no experience with the Mongolian army. From what I can see, the Song Dynasty is still easier to deal with than the Mongolian army."
Speaking of this sentence, it should be reasonable, after all, it was the Song Dynasty who came to report the letter first.
"Your Majesty, Song people are treacherous, don't trust them..."
A minister stood up and said that the hatred between the two parties was already deep, and it might not be realistic to completely let go of this entanglement.
"At this time, we still have to let go of our personal grievances. If the Xingqing Mansion is really taken over by the Mongols, then everything will be too late..."
……
While the Xixia court was still arguing fiercely, the Mongol army was approaching the city at this time.
Temujin is a powerful khan, and he will never hesitate to decide on the target, so even though he only brought 3 horses, Temujin has already brought people to the front of Xingqing Mansion. The siege once.
Of course, this time the siege did not make any progress. After all, Temujin brought cavalry, which was not suitable for siege. They had been fighting for a long time, but the gates of Xingqing Mansion were closed, and no People dare to go out to meet the enemy.
Temujin was not in a hurry, he ordered the whole army to set up camp, and waited for Jamuka to come with a large army, and when he had powerful siege equipment, he would take down Xingqing Mansion in one go.
However, after such a period of time, after a period of quarrels in the Xixia Kingdom, they finally reached a consensus, which is to negotiate a peace.
Although the peace negotiation may not be really successful, but no matter whether it can be successful or not, you have to try it.
It would be best if it succeeds, and the crisis this time can be resolved, but I feel that this possibility is unlikely.
Even if the peace talks cannot be successfully negotiated, but if you think about it, you can delay the time and buy even half a day for the Xingqing Mansion, which will also make it possible for the Xingqing Mansion not to be breached.
In the evening, the school gate of Xingqing Mansion quietly opened a crack, and a person got out from the small crack. This person was an envoy representing the Xixia Kingdom, and he was going to negotiate with Temujin.
"Stop! Who!"
From a distance, he was discovered by soldiers of the Mongolian army, and a sharp arrow shot at his feet, warning him that if he continued to walk forward, he would be shot.
"Master, don't be nervous. I'm an envoy sent by the Xixia Kingdom. I want to meet our Khan." Xu Yinfeng, the envoy of the Xixia Kingdom, said to the guards in the Mongolian camp.
"An envoy from the Xixia Kingdom?"
The guard frowned and said:
"What are you doing here?"
At this moment, Xu Yinfeng hurriedly said with a smile on his face:
"This official, it's like this. I am here on the order of the king of Xixia Kingdom, and I want to come to negotiate peace with your country. I would like to ask you, little brother Lao, to help spread the word."
The guard guarding the city looked at Xu Yinfeng, snorted coldly, and said:
"You wait here."
Then go in and communicate.
In Temujin's camp, when he heard the report from the messenger, he glanced at Jamuka next to him, and said with a smile:
"Look, it was said that Cao Cao and Cao Cao would be here. I just said that the Xixia army would send envoys. I didn't expect that they would come here just now."
"The Western Xia army must have been frightened by us, so they came here in a hurry to ask for peace at this time."
Jamuhe said at this time.
"I have already called at their door, and I still want to ask for peace. It's a dream."
"Khan, in my opinion, you don't even need to meet this envoy, just rush back. If you want peace talks, there is no way!"
Temujin smiled and said to Jamuka:
"Let's call them over to see what kind of conditions the emperor of the Xixia Kingdom offered us... If we can really voluntarily relinquish the throne and become a commoner, I don't mind sparing the life of the Xixia monarch."
"Hahaha……"
Jamuka laughed loudly, nodded his head, and said to Temujin:
"What Khan said is very true, I will arrange it now!"
Zamuhe then said to the messenger:
"Let him in!"
Temujin suddenly waved his hand and said:
"Don't worry, let him wait outside for an hour before letting him in."
The messenger led the order to leave, and Jamuhe smiled. Naturally, Temujin deliberately left the envoy of the Xixia Kingdom in the air.
This is also understandable. After all, the initiative is now in the hands of the Mongols. When negotiating, the stronger party can always take the initiative.
