Chapter 1403 The other person has internal and external troubles, and it is not enough to worry abou
The reason why Sotang's words shocked Kim Boushi was because the folk song "Twelve dragons and grandsons, and eighteen sons" has indeed been circulated in Goryeo over the years. Twelve is the character for king, which represents the royal family of Goryeo.
The eighteenth son is named Li, which naturally represents the powerful minister Li Ziqian who was married to the Goryeo royal family for three generations and held great power in the court.
Now the king of Goryeo is ill. If he dies, Li Ziqian, who was already in power, will become more powerful in controlling the country's destiny as the grandfather of the crown prince Wang Kai. Based on the current situation, Li Ziqian's gang members and relatives will fight.
The house is connected to the street, and the flames are getting stronger and stronger. At the same time, bribes are being paid to the public, and donations from all directions are coming together to seize people's land and fields, and let their servants plunder their cars and horses and lose their own property. The common people destroy their cars and sell their cattle and horses, and the roads are noisy.
However... this has become the norm. With the spread of such folk songs, it is not surprising that Kim Boushi could realize that the Lee family may not be truly loyal to the Goryeo royal family, and had the evil idea of replacing the Wang family.
.
Jin Fushi was just surprised that the leaders of the rebellion, such as Yi Lacheng and the "Ke Yin" in front of him, knew very well about the current national conditions of Goryeo. As the other party said, if there were national thieves in the court doing evil, Goryeo would have no time to worry about occupying the country.
The various rebel armies in Baozhou. If the situation gets serious, if the other party knows that a storm is coming in Korea, they will turn around and take the opportunity to invade and plunder the territory... This will not be good for the entire Korea.
Is it also a huge catastrophe?
The leader of the rebel army named "Ke Yin" had an insight into the situation. When Jin Fushi saw the confident smile on his face again, he was shocked to realize that he had lost his composure.
Falling into the hands of others, can't we just be led by the other party during negotiations? But at this time, Xiao Tang changed the subject and said: "Now your country is also facing internal and external troubles. We and other tribes and tribes have gathered together.
The real mortal enemy is only in the north. I had no intention of using your country, Korea, to the point where both sides would suffer, and everything would be destroyed. Academician Jin has his own concerns for your country. There are some things, unless your country insists on not doing so.
To know good from bad, there is no need to make a clear distinction...
If both you and I are willing to give in and negotiate, there will be room for compromise. If your country understands the truth, since Goryeo has its own "internal worries", it is very likely that it will be a national disaster. After all, our army is elsewhere.
I have a plan, and I have no intention of always being a "foreign invasion" of your country. Of course, this also depends on the thoughts of Bachelor Jin and the leader of your country. Do you really want to force us to fight against you, Korea, to the end, or should we call it a truce for the time being?
The two sides are at peace with each other, and each only thinks about how to resolve the real disaster on his side..."
After hearing what "Ke Yin" said, Jin Fushi secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He smiled a little embarrassed and embarrassed. Now he knew that he wanted to use his country's power to suppress others, and the other party obviously didn't accept this trick.
Originally, in order to prepare for the invasion of the Liao Kingdom, the Goryeo Kingdom reorganized the country's conventional military and the number of soldiers reached 300,000. However, as it surrendered to the Liao Dynasty and paid tribute, the country's strength was greatly reduced due to the successive killings of the Jurchen tribes. Now,
It can be maintained at more than 100,000 or 200,000 regular military personnel. If we also count the second-grade army such as Song Tingxiang soldiers, regiment training and other reserve units, the third-grade army can still maintain the number of 500,000 to 600,000 soldiers, but the Baozhou battle will
The loss of more than 70,000 navy, army and horse has seriously damaged the vitality of Goryeo. The soldiers and horses occupying Baozhou are obviously not afraid of Goryeo raising troops to fight against it. Not only are they aware of the suffering, but the other side is also well aware of the hidden dangers of Goryeo's national conditions.
, if he really wants to break up and cause a fight to the death, it will only be his country, Goryeo, that suffers the consequences.
Nowadays, the other party no longer has any leverage to gain the upper hand in negotiations. There is no room for quarrels. Kim Bo-sik cannot argue with every dollar. There is no negotiation scene in which each other is blowing their beards and glaring, trying to get the maximum benefit for their own side. As a diplomatic envoy, Kim Bo-sik has been assigned to many tasks, and he prides himself on being a good dancer. However, now that the other party has already figured out the trump card and hidden dangers of his country, it is just a rebel army occupying three states and dealing with one country. , it turned out that he was completely in the posture of negotiation between the strong and the weak. However, he did not have much confidence in bargaining, which made Jin Fushi feel very tired. This diplomatic mission was the most aggrieved and useless for him, but he also A helpless time...
Having completely gained the upper hand in the negotiations, Yilancheng and Xiao Tang followed suit and quickly set out their own conditions: if the Kingdom of Korea redeemed it with money and grain, and would no longer look north to covet Bao, Ding, and Xuanzhou, They agreed to return Prime Minister Jin Yuan, Tongzhi Privy Councilor Cui Hongzai, and other important officials of the Goryeo Dynasty, as well as more than 10,000 captured Goryeo army prisoners. The east bank of the Yalu River was still divided according to the time when the Liao Dynasty stationed troops to frighten Goryeo. They have been fighting each other for hundreds of miles, and they will no longer send troops and horses to plunder large areas of counties and towns in northern Goryeo.
A temporary truce with the Yisheng rebels, and at the same time being able to rescue the captured imperial ministers and more than 10,000 officers and soldiers, was a negotiation that was acceptable to Kim Fu-sik and even the Chinese military ministers of the Goryeo Dynasty. As a result, the original idea of taking advantage of the Jin Dynasty to annex the Liao Kingdom and push the country's territorial boundaries to the middle and upper reaches of the Qingchuan River to the lower reaches of the Yalu River completely failed. Jin Fushi could only redeem the number of captured important officials and officers and soldiers. They tried their best to bargain, but when the transfer was successful, Xiao Tang also insisted on the conditions for returning the prisoners of war: Goryeo's silver bottle, Haedong Chongbao, Samhan Chongbao and other copper coins would not be accepted, but fifty thousand bolts of silk would be taken. , the food and grass are ten million dan, even if one pound or one tael is missing, there is no need to talk about it.
Jin Fushi had no choice but to report to Yichen. Xiao Tang reported that this matter must be reported to the king, Wang Ma, and his approval can be achieved. In fact, Jin Fushi secretly planned in his heart that he would have to return to Goryeo to open the capital. To persuade the country's leader, Xiao pointed out the current situation with interests, and temporarily resolved the dispute with the rebels in Baozhou. Although the two sides were still trying to show off their opposition, it would be safer for the country to stop fighting... ..
Everything is not under our control. Kim Fu-sik, the special envoy sent by the Goryeo Dynasty to negotiate with Yisheng, Xiaotang and others, now has no choice but to serve as a messenger, but he can avoid such disasters as foreign enemies invading the country. , which was also the result of the negotiation that Jin Fushi could accept. When he resigned from Yilancheng and planned to return to the court to report to the king, he looked meaningfully at Xiao Tang and vaguely realized in his heart that this man named "Ke Yin" There was something strange about the leader, and his words and deeds had some unfathomable meanings. But now it was too late to think about it. After Jin Fushi and Xiao Tang greeted each other, they left the Baozhou government office, and with their entourage, they were captured by the soldiers in the city. The horse was sent out of the city, and he surrendered to Goryeo and left for the capital.
"This is in line with the Wolf Lord's plan, so that he will not be trapped in this situation and be attacked from both sides. However, most of the birds in the Koryo Kingdom are dishonest. What will happen if they break the contract?"
In the post house, Yi Lacheng, who had taken a back seat, was obviously still very disgusted with the Goryeo Kingdom, so he still asked Xiao Tang worriedly.
"Even if there are evil thoughts of treachery on the part of Goryeo, at any rate, those guys are now forced by the situation and have no choice but to swallow their anger and surrender to the Jin Kingdom. In the future, they will inevitably sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight, and watch our army and the Jin Kingdom attack with fake hands.
He planned to fight against each other, and if it was only for the three military states in this area, he would have to fight to the death with us. In terms of his national conditions, the ones who suffered the most would be those guys after all. Even if Goryeo coveted the Baozhou Zhuge Liang
The thieves are determined to seize the land by force, and if they continue to be wasted, it will only be harmful rather than beneficial. Even ministers like Kim Fu-sik will not consider these things clearly..."
Xiao Tang said leisurely, and then added: "If everything goes as I expected, there will be no trouble in Goryeo now, and there is only a group of people who need to be eliminated in Baozhou, Liao Dynasty. After avoiding future troubles, I think I can concentrate on it, and
I just want to plan how to fight the Jin Kingdom..."
