The Gaochang Uighurs are also a nomadic people. Although they are also influenced by Chinese culture, their customs are still biased toward the Western Regions. The Uighurs are different from the Song Dynasty, especially the Song Dynasty during the period of Song Huizong. I remember that when the Jin soldiers went south, Song Huizong just wanted to escape.
, there was no thought of any resistance at all, and now, although the Jin soldiers are pressing down on the border, and the people in the country are panicking, the government and the public have not even the slightest thought of escaping.
Their soldiers are also very powerful and are not afraid of the Jin soldiers. If it were Song Huizong, he would have surrendered long ago. But the question is whether it is really the point of no return.
As King Bileg of the Uighurs, he was also very entangled in his heart and asked: "Everyone, it has been more than half a month now, and the patience of the three parties is almost exhausted. If it drags on any longer, I am afraid it will be very detrimental to us."
A minister said: "The elite of the Jin army came all the way here, not just to see the scenery. They asked to station troops in our country. Although they promised a lot, if they don't keep their word, we will lead the wolf into the house, and the consequences will be
It is immeasurable, but I hope you will think twice before taking action."
This man's name was Tutuhan, and he was an official in Dabek, which was a very important official in the Uighurs.
Another person said: "I agree with Tutuhan's words. Although the Jin army is an elite, it only has 60,000 or 70,000 troops. It has traveled a long distance to get here. It is already depleted of men and horses. If we unite with Yelu Dashi and Xixia, we can fight against them."
This man's name was Tiebol, and he was a judge, that is, the supreme chief justice of the Uighurs.
After hearing what the two said, Bilge nodded slightly, but that was all. He turned to the old man on the left and asked: "Prime Minister, why don't you speak?"
The old man's name was Balta, and he was the prime minister of the Uighurs. He was highly respected, and his status in the Uighurs was second only to that of Belgo. When they were discussing just now, he had closed his eyes to rest, and he didn't open his eyes until Belgo asked.
At the moment, he asked instead of answering: "Yi Duhu is hesitant because he doesn't know which side to trust. In fact, no matter what, we must unite with one party. If all three parties refuse, it may lead to the attacks of the three parties. Then I don't know Yi Du."
Which one of the three parties is more trustworthy?"
Bilego said truthfully: "Comparing these three parties, the one I trust most is the Yelu Dashi. As for the Jin Kingdom and Xixia---." At this point, he shook his head and said: "We have never had any dealings with the Jin Kingdom.
I don’t know their intentions, so I dare not fully believe them, and what Xixia said, huh, they have been coveting our territory, this is no longer a secret, and it cannot be trusted."
Balta smiled slightly and said: "Yi Duhu trusts Yelu Dashi the most. This is because Yelu Dashi is the weakest among the three parties, but similarly, it is difficult for the weaker Yelu Dashi to help us."
Bilge nodded and said: "What the Prime Minister said is true, that's exactly what I think. Then I wonder who the Prime Minister thinks is more trustworthy, the Kingdom of Jin or the Kingdom of Xixia?"
"Golden State."
Balta said it without any hesitation.
After hearing this, the others smacked their lips secretly, whispered to each other.
Big Brother frowned and said, "How do you say this?"
Balta smiled and said: "My Gaochang Uighurs border the Western Regions, far away from the Jin Kingdom and go to Beijing. If a war breaks out, even if the Jin Kingdom wins, it may not be easy for them to rule here. When we surrendered to the Liao Kingdom,
The Liao Kingdom has given us enough courtesy. In fact, we still do. In my opinion, it is not that the Liao Kingdom does not want to rule here, but that it is beyond their reach. But Xixia is different. Xixia is right next to us. If Xixia takes advantage of it, they will
You can rule this place quickly."
Bilego said: "You mean, if we surrender to the Jin Kingdom, they will treat us as favorably as the Liao Kingdom."
Balta nodded and said: "Maybe there will be some differences. Tutuhan also said before that the elites of the Jin Kingdom came here all the way, and their purpose must not be simple. If they just came to deal with us Gaochang Uighurs, they might have started a war long ago, but
They didn't. We kept their envoys under house arrest for more than half a month, but they still didn't move. But at the border, we can see that they are sincere and want to appease us.
But its purpose is not here. I think our Gaochang Uighurs are far more important to the Jin Kingdom than to the original Liao Kingdom. If this is the case, the Jin Kingdom will treat us more courteously. And as far as I know, the second prince of the Jin Kingdom has traveled all the way.
Come, not a single soldier was used, and no one was injured, which shows that this man is by no means a reckless person and can be trusted."
"The prime minister's words make sense." Bilge nodded a few times and said, "Then you mean to choose the Kingdom of Jin?"
Balta said: "Compared to the other two methods, this is the superior strategy."
Big Brother asked the others: "What do you think?"
The rest of the people looked at me and I looked at him, thinking in their hearts that Yelu Dashi is too weak, Xixia is too ambitious, and this country is capricious and untrustworthy. Although the Jin Kingdom is a newly emerging big country, they are not even strong.
The Liao Kingdom was all wiped out, which showed its strength. More importantly, Balta was right. The Jin Kingdom was too far away from Beijing. Even if they surrendered to the Jin Kingdom, they would definitely still be the rulers of this land in the future, so they all
They nodded and said in unison: "We agree with Balta's words."
Seeing that all the ministers agreed, Bilge weighed it again, nodded and said: "Okay, let's do it this way."
Balta said: "Yiduhu, we still don't trust the Jin Kingdom, and the Jin Kingdom probably doesn't trust us very much. Since Yiduhu has decided to submit to the Jin Kingdom, we should show our determination to submit."
Bi Lege didn't quite understand what he heard, and said: "The prime minister means to send some cattle, sheep and horses to the Jin army?"
Balta shook his head and said: "The Jin army's western expedition is under the banner of capturing Yelu Dashi, and we have helped Yelu Dashi. Since we want to submit to the Jin Kingdom, we must sever ties with Yelu Dashi. According to Xixia,
There have been a lot of conflicts with the Jin Kingdom recently, so we should also cut off contact with Xixia. Since we are all enemies, we don't need to worry too much. Why not behead Yelu Dashi and Xixia's envoys, and send their heads to Wanyan Zongwang
Going to express our determination to surrender, I believe this is far better than sending sheep and horses."
Tutuhan said: "There is a war between the two countries and the envoys will not be killed. If we do this, wouldn't it be a bit immoral?"
Balta smiled and said: "If we submit to the Kingdom of Jin, then on the surface, we are just a vassal state of the Kingdom of Jin, and we are only following the wishes of the Kingdom of Jin. It has nothing to do with morality. If we follow your calculation, then in the end it will only be
The blame can only be placed on the executioner."
Tutuhan said: "But the Kingdom of Jin didn't ask us to do this?"
Balta said: "But I can guarantee that the Kingdom of Jin will definitely want us to do this, and they will be happy to take over this matter."
Bi Lege thought to himself that since we have decided to submit to the Jin Kingdom, we still care about these two heads. Using these two heads to exchange for the Jin Kingdom's trust will not be a loss no matter what, he made a decision: "Okay. Let's do this.
"Come here, please invite the envoys from the Kingdom of Jin. Remember to entertain them well. In addition, push out the envoys from Xixia and Yelu Dashi and kill them."
"As commanded."
...
...
Jinjun military camp.
Although Wanyan Zongwang persuaded all the soldiers, the Jin soldiers were still in a state of agitation. The little Uighurs dared to let us big Jin men blow the northwest wind in this place where birds don't shit. This is simply unreasonable.
As the days passed, they began to doubt Wanyan Zongwang's words. Will the falcons surrender to us this time?
Just about a month later, a letter finally came from the Uighurs, handing over a letter expressing their willingness to join Daikin.
After Wanyan Zongwang saw it, he couldn't help but be overjoyed. He managed to pacify the Uighurs without spending a single soldier. This was the most ideal result for the Jin Kingdom. When the Uighur Prime Minister Balta arrived with his credentials, Wanyan Zongwang led all the soldiers to personally
He came out of the big tent to greet him, showed great enthusiasm, and entered the big tent hand in hand with Batal.
In the military camp, Nabalta saw that the Jin army had strong soldiers and horses, and their swords and spears were sharp. He was secretly glad that he had made the right choice. Xixia and Yelu Dashi were no match for the Jin Kingdom.
When they came to the tent, Wanyan Zongwang took Balta to sit beside him and gave him the most noble courtesy. This made Balta a little flattered, and he hurriedly presented the credentials and the heads of the envoys of Xixia and Yelu Dashi as a token of appreciation.
The determination to surrender.
As expected, when Wanyan Zongwang saw the two heads, he was overjoyed. He was full of praise for Bilugo's move. He drank several large bowls of wine with Bartalian and said with great interest: "I and Duhu Yi
Although we have never met each other, we have been friends with each other for a long time and respect Yi Duhu very much. We are willing to become brothers of different surnames with him. Our Majesty is also willing to betroth his third daughter to Yi Duhu and we will be married together."
This is the favorite political marriage of the nomads. If this is the case, Bilege is Wanyan Sheng's son-in-law and Wanyan Zongwang's brother. His status has really jumped to the third level. This is an extremely high treatment. Back then, Liao
The capital of the country has not given them such generous courtesy.
From the beginning, both parties entered into a very pleasant atmosphere, and what happened next was really negotiable!
Wanyan Zongwang made it very clear that not only would he not weaken Bilego's dominance, it will still be the same as how you managed it in the past, but he would also put all the surrounding tribes under your Uighur management. Not only that, Wanyan Zongwang also said
They will not station troops in Gaochang, nor will they disturb the Uighur people.
All in all, it is full of sincerity.
Of course, Balta would reciprocate the favor and expressed his willingness to provide the important town of Beiting for the Jin army to garrison. He would also send a large number of horses, camels, and sheep. He was willing to support your great cause with the whole country. Bilego even hoped that Wanyan Zongwang would accept it.
His second son is his adopted son.
There is no reason for Wanyan Zongwang not to agree. Although Gaochang is the capital, it is not as good as Beiting from a military perspective. Beiting is an important place leading to the northwest. As for the adoption of an adopted son, there is no need to marry him.
Having said that, he said on the spot that he would elevate Beiting to the title of Beiting Prefecture to protect the capital. He also set up a Uighur camp in Kedun City, Zhenzhou, and also built a large-scale market for Uighur merchants to come to the Kingdom of Jin to do business. This place in the north of Zhenzhou
You can go to Mongolia, to Shangjing in the east, to Xixia and Song Dynasty in the south, and the geographical location is also excellent.
This time Falcon Camp means embassy.
Both parties in this negotiation were sincere, so it was very enjoyable from beginning to end.
