Chapter 637 Messenger

Xiao Mo is waiting for the soldiers to recover further, even if they are not [-]% recovered, at least they must be recovered enough to continue marching, right?

Fortunately, this time Xiao Mo was afraid that crossing the Gobi would encounter great difficulties, so he agreed with Zhong Shiheng to launch a general attack on Xiping Mansion and Xingqing Mansion in mid-September!

There was not enough time, so after staying in Duolan for a few days, and the soldiers were almost fully trained, Xiao Mo led the army to bypass Dulan, enter the Gobi again, and then head towards Haixi!
The time has entered the end of August, and the Mid-Autumn Festival in An Dynasty this year has become somewhat dull due to the war between Xiazhou and Liao.

Fortunately, the good news from Taiyuan finally arrived in the capital. At that time, the Mid-Autumn Festival had just passed, but as soon as the news came out, people flocked to the streets to revel, which was even more festive than the Mid-Autumn Festival!
This time, Zhao Quan was also very happy, and finally he was elated, and then Zhao Quan issued a decree to amnesty the world!And announced the cancellation of the attack on the Liao Dynasty, and announced the attitude of defeating the Liao army and the imperial court to the world.

For a while, the people and soldiers of the An Dynasty were greatly encouraged, and there was a burst of opposition to the Liao Kingdom in the hall, and even ministers suggested that Zhao Quan issue an edict to the Liao Kingdom, ordering the Liao Kingdom to surrender to the An Dynasty!
If Xiao Mo was here, he would definitely yell at the minister who spoke up.

Who wants the Liao Kingdom to become a vassal?Isn't this a bad thing?

Moreover, although the Liao Kingdom lost to Anchao several times in a row, the main force of the Liao Kingdom's army is still there and has not been affected. Is it possible for you to make the Liao Kingdom a vassal at this time?
But Zhao Quan was also dazzled by the victory, and actually listened to the minister's suggestion, and then asked Ji Ping to draft the edict.

In the imperial edict, Zhao Quan claimed to be the Son of Heaven, ordered Yelu Hongji to surrender, made the Liao Kingdom a vassal, and paid a certain amount of horses and money every year.

When the envoy arrived in Liao, Yelu Hongji thought it was An Chao who had won the battle but was afraid of war and came to seek peace, because An Chao had done such a thing a few years ago.

At that time, Zhao Quanyu drove in person, and then the morale of the An Dynasty army was greatly shaken. The Liao Kingdom strategically chose to retreat.

So this time Yelu Hongji thought that An Chao was afraid again, so he specially arranged for An Chao's envoy to come to see him in the early court!

The envoys came to the morning court, at this time Zhang Xiaojie, Zhang Yuanzhi, Xiao Tianzuo and Yelu Aluhan were all in Xijing.After the Liao army was defeated last time, Zhang Yuanzhi vomited blood again, and was recalled to Xijing by Yelu Hongji's edict, and only general Meng Gong was sent to guard Daizhou.

Yelu Hongji said to the envoy: "This time, we in Daliao have temporarily withdrawn our troops because the troubles in Liaodong have not been eliminated..."

The envoy raised his head when he heard this, and said to Yelu Hongji, "Your Majesty, as far as your foreign ministers know, the chaos in Liaodong was nothing more than a minor disturbance. If your majesty says so, why not rectify the troops and come to Taiyuan to fight again?" Pass?"

This time, the envoys of the An Dynasty not only raised their heads in the Liao Kingdom, but also changed their address. They used to call Yelu Hongji the Liao Emperor, but now they call Yelu Hongji the Great King!

So Zhang Yuanzhi stood up and shouted to An Chao's envoy: "Bold, my Daliao and An Chao are equal, and the envoy actually dares to bully my Daliao Emperor?"

The envoy didn't even look at Zhang Yuanzhi, but said, "A defeated general, how dare you speak?"

In a word, it hit Zhang Yuanzhi's sore spot, and made Zhang Yuanzhi gnash his teeth in anger!

This time, the attitude of An Chao's envoy was seen by everyone. Naturally, Zhang Yuanzhi and Yelu Aluhan would not be happy. They had just lost a battle, and they were in a depressed mood. At this time, An Chao sent an envoy to come. Of course they were furious about the Liao Kingdom showing off their might!

But Zhang Xiaojie and Xiao Tianzuo looked at each other, in front of the courtiers of the Liao Kingdom, they couldn't tell what kind of expressions they had.

And Yelu Hongji also frowned, he had a bad feeling!I feel like I guessed wrong this time, the envoy from An Chao seems to have come with bad intentions!
So Yelu Hongji ordered someone to pass on the letter of credence presented by the envoy, and then read it with a frown. After that, Yelu Hongji looked at the envoy, laughed, and said coldly to the eunuch beside him, "Read it!"

The eunuch hesitated for a moment and looked at Yelu Hongji.

Yelu Hongji was annoyed, and shouted sharply again: "Read!"

Hearing Yelu Hongji's bad tone, the eunuch knew that Yelu Hongji was angry, so he read An Chao's edict loudly.

In the imperial edict, Zhao Quan did not treat Yelu Hongji politely, he acted like a monarch of the previous kingdom, and his words were very affirmative, requiring Yelu Hongji to lead the ministers of the Liao Kingdom to profess his ministers to the An Dynasty, and also stipulated that the Liao Kingdom should return the An Dynasty. Not only the yearly coins of the dynasty, but also to pay tribute to An Dynasty with horses, gold and silver!

As for the amount of gold, silver and money, Zhao Quan's edict did not specify, but asked Yelu Hongji to discuss with the envoys he sent.

After hearing this edict, the court hall of the Liao Kingdom exploded, and then they all looked at the envoy of An Dynasty angrily.

This time, An Chao's envoy was a new young man, and An Chao sent him to Liao Kingdom because he liked the young man's aura of not being afraid of tigers.

Since newborn calves are not afraid of tigers, naturally they will not be afraid of the cold eyes of Liao ministers.

As a political advisor, Zhang Xiaojie naturally had to show his anger. He stood up and said to Yelu Hongji: "Your Majesty, An Chao is too deceitful. I think the Emperor should not be summoned!"

After all, Zhang Xiaojie took a look at Zhang Yuanzhi.

Yelu Hongji also asked Zhang Yuanzhi, "What do the Privy Envoys think?"

Zhang Yuanzhi bowed to Yelu Hongji and said: "Your Majesty, according to my opinion, An Chao is too deceitful and despises our Daliao, and the envoy is even more rebellious and disturbs the hearts of our army. You should kill this man to shake our army's morale!"

"The two countries have mutual relations, don't kill the envoy..." Yelu Hongji hesitated for a while, but he couldn't help being annoyed when he saw An Chao's envoy not only not afraid, but rather complacent.

The envoy of An Chao said: "Sure enough, they are a group of barbarians who have not yet learned from the past. If you want to kill them, you will kill them. In my majestic dynasty, there are only courtiers who stand dead, and there are no villains who steal life!"

"You!" Yelu Hongji couldn't help being annoyed seeing the other party's upright look, and turned to Zhang Xiaojie and asked: "Zhang Aiqing thinks how I should deal with it?"

Seeing that Yelu Hongji asked him, Zhang Xiaojie was overjoyed, and said: "I also think that the privy envoy is right. This person offends the emperor's prestige, he should be punished!"

After finishing speaking, Zhang Xiaojie glanced at Xiao Tianzuo, Xiao Tianzuo nodded to Zhang Xiaojie, then stood up and said: "Your Majesty, I also agree with the proposal of Privy Councilor Zhang Yuanzhi, Master Zhang!"
