Where is the territory ruled by the former Tian Khan and where are the people? Those Shanyu and Khan who once honored the emperor of the Central Plains as Tian Khan, once the Central Plains weakened, immediately turned into tigers and wolves and bit them hard. This title might be tempting to someone else, but to Duan Mingyu, it is worthless.
Just imagine, if this is really done, then the future emperors of Khitan, as well as their civil, military, and people, will always regard the title of "child emperor" as a great shame, and they will provoke war again whenever they have the opportunity , every Khitan crown prince, from the day he was established as the crown prince, his greatest wish in life is probably to defeat the Tang Kingdom and lose his humiliating title.
The generation of heroes, who is not a person who can bend and stretch, they can endure all the unbearable humiliation of ordinary people, wait for all the opportunities to make a comeback, Gou Jian can even send his wife to the enemy to warm the bed, and eat the feces of the enemy by himself. Whatever the result, agreeing to this meaningless item is just to help Khitan establish the goal of always making the Tang people their enemies.
Duan Mingyu sees it very clearly, agreeing to this condition is tantamount to establishing that the two countries will become feuds if they exist for a day.
If you don’t have the ability to get back the land lost by your ancestors, the descendants of future generations can put it aside and pretend to be deaf and dumb, but the title of "Emperor Son" directly imposed on him, no matter how you tell him to escape and endure Only Shi Jingtang in his previous life could be shameless to this level.
Negotiations between the two parties became more and more frequent, but Yelu Deguang refused to make any more concessions. Duan Mingyu felt that it was necessary to use force to beat and beat Khitan, who was still delusional. The camp launched an attack, and at the same time launched an attack on Youzhou City. Li Cunxu personally commanded and pulled out a larger camp in Yelu Deguang's camp. : Ceded land.
For the Khitan, the significance of the Yanyun Sixteen States is not limited to the military. The Yanyun Sixteen States are the main farming areas of the Khitan, and the use of wells for the Khitan Kingdom is roughly the same as that of Jiangnan for the Tang Kingdom. , The sixteen prefectures of Yanyun are bordering the Tang Kingdom. This is an important channel for the Khitan to absorb the culture of the Central Plains and integrate into the economy of the Central Plains. If the sixteen prefectures of Yanyun change hands, the Khitan people will return to the nomadic life of living by water and grass. , the political system of the feudal empire will also be difficult to maintain. After several years of establishment, Khitan, which has just flourished economically and culturally, will go downhill from then on.
The sixteen prefectures of Yanyun are equal to the economic lifeline and political foundation of Khitan. Now Duan Mingyu is taking advantage of the death of the Khitan emperor, and the Khitan political arena urgently needs to be reshuffled. The military failed, and the most promising second prince was trapped. Guang ceded the seven states in front of the mountain, how could he not hate it.
All negotiations are pending, Yelu Deguang will sign a letter of credence with Duan Mingyu, Tang Zhaozong Li Ye gave Duan Mingyu a lot of power, so he is naturally qualified to sign the letter of credence, and Yelu Abaoji is dead, Yelu Deguang will definitely be able to return to Shangjing He overthrew the eldest prince Yelubei and became the new king. Moreover, Yelu Deguang now holds military power in his hands, and his mother-in-law Queen Luping must support him, so this letter of credence is legally effective.
Yelu Deguang already knew that the cession of the land was a fact, and the reason why he kept procrastinating with excuses was just to delay it until the cold winter. Youzhou, the center of the seven prefectures in front of the mountain, is still in the hands of Khitan. This point is worth scrutinizing. You can withdraw the troops and stop meddling, but Youzhou can't be cheap for Duan Mingyu. If Duan Mingyu conquers Youzhou before the spring of next year, then Youzhou can be ceded to Tang. Only six states can be obtained at one time, and Youzhou can only be in the hands of the Khitan people, and Duan Mingyu has to withdraw his troops, so this time the Northern Expedition will not be considered complete.
Duan Mingyu smiled faintly at Yelu Deguang, cupped his hands and said, "Please sit down."
Everything has already been agreed, even the content of the credential has been deliberated word by word by both parties, there is no need to discuss it again, it is just brought over and signed by the temporary top representatives of both parties on the spot, and that's all.
What Duan Mingyu wants is the seven prefectures in front of the mountain, the sixteen prefectures in Youyun, the seven prefectures in front of the mountain, the nine states behind the mountain, and the sixteen prefectures totaling about 12 square kilometers. The line of the Great Wall, with fertile fields and thousands of miles, is bounded by mountains in the north, and there are dangerous passes in the mountains and mountains. It is a natural barrier that separates the Han nationality area in the Central Plains from the nomadic area in the north. The strategic location is the most important. It is the northern gate of the Central Plains. Command troops to garrison , Caress about its dangers, soldiers and horses dare not herd south. If you lose the remote Jizhou states, you will have to deal with the enemy for thousands of miles. If there are plains for thousands of miles, the Central Plains will always be uneasy. Duan Mingyu believes that with 40 tigers, he will definitely be able to win before the beginning of spring. In Youzhou, he breathed a long sigh of relief, and now, his merits and virtues have finally come to an end.
But Yelu Deguang firmly believed that Yelufeng would definitely guard the city of Yanjing until the beginning of spring, Yelufeng's ability was not inferior to his own, he had this confidence.
At this time, winter has arrived, and there are less than two months left. The two sides have tentatively finalized this way. The war will be dominated by the Tang Dynasty, so the peace treaty will be based on the year name of the Tang Dynasty. Holding the peace treaty in each hand, Yelu Deguang slowly climbed up the earth-built high platform, which was a head higher than the eaves of the Xiongbao Hall. On the first step on the left stood the guards of the Khitan leather army, while on the left step stood the guards of the Tang Dynasty. The guards of the Shence army, on the high platform, lay incense tables, and the red carpet filled the floor. Except for two people, there was no one else. The ministers of civil and military affairs of the two countries stood respectfully under the stage, and only the living roomers of the two countries were lowered to serve.
Yelude held the peace treaty in his hands, his face was pale, and he stared at everything in front of him. Soon, the surname of Tang would be here. He had to die down and lead his subjects to leave here, maybe... never come back again.
Duan Mingyu coughed lightly, and said, "Second Prince...don't you read the oath?"
Yelu Deguang sneered, and said: "Duan Mingyu, you have made your wish today, and a certain family will definitely ask you to repay it twice."
Holding the peace treaty in both hands, the two stood in front of the incense table, with calm expressions and fixed eyes. In the eyes of the civil and military officials of the two countries, they seemed to be solemnly praying to the heaven and the earth.
Duan Mingyu was silent for a while, and sighed: "If the two countries change places, what will the second prince do?"
Yelu Deguang is finally an outstanding man of his generation, after thinking about it, the indignation in his heart eased a lot, he said: "You take the pong into danger and force me to cede the land, the Central Plains people should have a good life, my son, you deserve it Eat in the wind, sleep in the open, live in the water and grass, will the generations, grandchildren and grandchildren be miserable and poor?"
Duan Mingyu stared at the majestic hall of the Great Hero Hall, and said disappointedly: "What can I say, is all living beings equal? In the eyes of the Buddha who keeps saying that all living beings are equal, there are also three good ways of heaven, man, and Asura; animals, hungry ghosts, and three evils of hell." Dao, the way of good and evil has three grades of upper, middle and lower, not to mention you and I are just mortals, whoever has great supernatural powers and cares about everyone is my Tang country, the people of the north and south, the people of the west and the east, and the people of Chengzhuo mountain village , who are also citizens of the Tang Dynasty, how can they live in a splendid land and enjoy a prosperous life to the fullest?"
Duan Mingyu said again: "If I don't take You Yan today, the Khitan will never be satisfied with having You Yan in the future. If there is no You Yan, the Tang Kingdom will have a flat land, and there is no danger to rely on. Even if the poor have a lot of troops and consume ten times their strength, it will not be enough. by self-preservation,"
Yelu Deguang sneered: "That's a good reason, it's justified for you to take my food and give it to you. Well, I want to see if you can really capture Youzhou City within two months. "
Just imagine, if this is really done, then the future emperors of Khitan, as well as their civil, military, and people, will always regard the title of "child emperor" as a great shame, and they will provoke war again whenever they have the opportunity , every Khitan crown prince, from the day he was established as the crown prince, his greatest wish in life is probably to defeat the Tang Kingdom and lose his humiliating title.
