56 Meetings and Meetings (3)

For the Song Dynasty, Ying, Shou, Su, Pi, and Xu Wuzhou were originally recaptured by the Northern Expedition of the Trunk Road, and now they have been taken away by the Jin Army, but they have basically returned to the situation before the Northern Expedition of the Trunk Road, and after the five prefectures of Ying, Shou, Su, Pi, and Xu were recovered by the Jin State, Haizhou was separated from the Great Song Dynasty, and it was difficult to hold, and the three prefectures of Deng, Tang, and Cai were originally located at the junction of Song and Jin, and they had changed hands several times between the two sides, and it was nothing to lose. And after all, forced the Jin army to withdraw from Huaidong. In addition, it retained Xinhui Prefecture in the west, expanded the territory of the Western Xia Liangu, and maintained a semi-encirclement of the Jin army to the west, which is not unacceptable.

This is how the second point of peace between the two sides was settled.

And the most difficult one is the problem of the New Year's coin. Zhao Chen resolutely disagreed with the payment of the New Year's coins to the gold side, and for Wan Yanyong, this time the southern expedition was a huge waste of money, and most of the places occupied were taken away by the Northern Expedition of the Song Dynasty, and it is not worth boasting about now that it is recovered, so it must not end without such a gain. If you can't get the New Year's coins and withdraw your troops like this, then this southern expedition can be regarded as nothing, and your prestige in the country will be greatly reduced, and I am afraid that the situation will not be suppressed. Therefore, Wan Yan Yong also decided that he must obtain the New Year's coin, otherwise he would rather break the cauldron and fight to the death with the Song army, rather than return to the country in such a disgraced manner.

So the two sides discussed the issue of whether to pay the New Year's currency for four days, but they were unwilling to give in, so a stalemate ensued.

However, at this time, news came that Zhao Kai had captured Huzhou and Jiaxing Mansion in succession. and ordered Li Quan to attack the Guangde army. Huzhou and Jiaxing Mansion are now occupied by the Jin army, of course, they will not really be taken away by Zhao Kai, obviously deliberately ceded to Zhao Kai, the purpose is naturally to expand Zhao Kai's sphere of influence, put pressure on the Jiankang court, and force the Jiankang court to accept the conditions of the year's coin. During the peace talks, the boycott of the two sides was limited to Zhao Chen and Jin Jun, so this practice of Jin Jun was not a breach of contract.

The Jiankang court naturally knew the purpose of the Jin army, and it had already prepared, Yang Yan immediately ordered Zhang Shiyan to lead 10,000 horses to block Li Quan's men and horses in Jianping, and ordered Liu Fuwu to lead the cavalry army to attack from the flank. Li Quan's 20,000 horses were defeated, and Li Quan had no choice but to retreat to the Guangde army. Zhang Shiyan marched to the city of Guangde, and Li Quanju defended the city and asked Lin'an for help. Two days later, Shao Hongyuan, who had captured Huzhou, led an army of 30,000 to rescue the Guangde army.

Although Jiankang Mansion and the Jin army ceased fighting, they did not dare to be careless, and the army still focused on guarding against the Jin army, and there were not many men and horses who could be dispatched to fight with the Lin'an army. Zhang Shiyan saw that there were many soldiers in Lin'an, so he withdrew his men and horses to Jianping. And Shao Hongyuan did not dare to pursue, so he was stationed in the Guangde Army. And Zhao Kai was also mobilizing troops, planning to concentrate the army and attack Jiankang, and the momentum was quite huge for a while.

However, this situation made the ministers of the Jiankang court worried, and even Chen Junqing was a little uncontrollable, and entered the palace with Liang Kejia, Hong Shi, and Liu Heng to persuade Zhao Chen: "Although Your Majesty has the will to recover, but now the internal and external disturbances are incomprehensible, and the only way to do this is not to visit Xu Xu to give Jin Guo some coins, and first pass the current crisis." After the civil strife in the Great Song Dynasty is pacified, it will not be too late to recover the coins. ”

Liang Kejia and Hong Shi originally thought that the current peace agreement was very good, neither need to be called a minister, nor cut the land, compared to Shaoxing to negotiate peace, Yijing is much better, just pay some coins, what is the point? Since the "Alliance of the League", hasn't the Great Song Dynasty always paid New Year's coins to neighboring countries? However, because Zhao Chen said resolutely, he did not dare to persuade him. Seeing that Chen Junqing was relieved, he also made comments, thinking that if he saw it, he would accept it, and it would be nothing to give some old coins to Jin Guo? Even Liu Heng felt that it was not a way to drag on like this day by day, and persuaded Zhao Chen to agree.

Zhao Chen also knew that he was now fighting on two fronts, although it was not a critical situation, but it was definitely not optimistic. But to agree to pay the New Year's coin like this, Zhao Chen felt unwilling, and relieved himself for a while before saying: "Qing and the others, let me think twice." ”

Chen Junqing and the others did not dare to go over to persecute the emperor and retired together.

Zhao Chen was worried, and suddenly the waiter came to report: Yang Yan, Xin Qiji, and Chen Liang asked to see each other. Zhao Chen listened to it and thought that they were also here for the New Year's coin? I didn't know what my brother-in-law could do, so he immediately said, "Xuan." ”

As Yang Yan said, although Xin Qiji and Chen Liang both advocated recovery, they were also reasonable people and knew the current situation, so under Yang Yan's persuasion, they also thought that they could temporarily negotiate peace with Jin Guo. This also reassured Zhao Chen a lot, because Xin Qiji and Chen Liang were both people that Zhao Chen valued very much, and they planned to focus on it in the future, and Zhao Chen didn't want them to be disappointed in the imperial court.

After a short time, the chamberlain led the three people into the meeting, and after giving the salute, Yang Yan immediately said: "Is Your Majesty worried about the matter of asking for the New Year's coin?" ”

Zhao Chen nodded and said: "Exactly, the Jin people must ask for the New Year's coins before they can negotiate peace, but I am not reconciled, but it is also unfavorable for the peace to drag on for a long time." Is there any good way to do it? ”

Yang Yan smiled slightly and said, "Just now Chen has come up with a plan, Your Majesty might as well listen to it." ”

When Zhao Chen heard this, he couldn't help but perk up, and hurriedly said: "Chen Shengxian has any good plans, quickly talk to me and listen to it, even if there is something inconsiderate, everyone can discuss it together." ”

Chen Liang said: "Your Majesty may wish to change the 'New Year's coin' to 'mutual gift', then it will naturally be solved." ”

Zhao Chen was stunned, "mutual gift" refers to the gift of something of equal value between countries, but this is obviously impossible to meet the requirements of the Jin country. If Jin Guo just symbolically gave something to the Great Song Dynasty, then what is the difference between it and the New Year's coin, it's just a nice way to put it. Therefore, I couldn't help but feel a little disappointed in my heart, and said: "How can the people who change the 'New Year's coin' to 'mutual gift' gold agree." ”

Chen Liang smiled slightly and said, "Your Majesty is in a hurry, please listen to the minister's slow words." The people in the township are quite good at doing business, and the ministers have lived in the township for a long time, and they often go to the north and the south to sell goods, and the north and south of the country, the goods are different, and the price is naturally different, and after the things from the south are trafficked to the north, the value can often be increased several times, and vice versa. ”

When Zhao Chen heard this, he suddenly realized and said excitedly: "I understand, it's really a good way." 'New Year's coins' are 'mutual gifts', and I think it will definitely work this time. ”

In fact, Chen Liang's method is not complicated, that is, to use the price difference between the north and the south to achieve the goal of making the Jin Kingdom profitable, and the Song Dynasty has no loss, and the two sides are equal in name. However, this method can only be imagined by Chen Liang, who was born in a business place, and it is impossible to think of Chen Junqing, who prides himself on science. Zhao Chen paused, and then said: "But what the Jin Kingdom can have, we have in the Great Song Dynasty, and what can we exchange with the Jin people?" ”

Yang Yan smiled slightly and said, "Horses, cows, and sheep! ”

Zhao Chen also smiled, if you want to talk about exchanging with the Great Song Dynasty, only horses, cattle, and sheep can handle the animals in the Jin Kingdom.

After the discussion of the ministers, everyone felt that they could give it a try, so Zhao Chen immediately sent someone to inform Han Yanzhi of this idea.

Sure enough, when the Song side proposed to change the "New Year's coin" to "mutual gift", the Jin side immediately agreed after a short discussion. After some bargaining, the two sides finally determined that every year Song Fang would give 200,000 taels of silver and 200,000 pieces of silk, while Jin Fang would give Song 1,000 horses, 3,000 cattle, and 3,000 sheep. And in addition, some regulations are made in terms of the weight and teeth of each animal.

If these cattle were in the Jin Kingdom, the total value was less than 100,000 taels of silver, but on the side of the Great Song Dynasty, they could reach more than 300,000 taels of silver. Therefore, in the eyes of the gold side, the profit is very large, and it is undoubtedly to achieve its own goal; And the Song side also had gains, because the Great Song Dynasty has always lacked cattle, horses and livestock, and after the Jin army withdrew, the two Huai, Zhejiang, Lianghu, Jiangnan and other places had to resume agricultural production, which required a large amount of cattle, so it was not a loss. And compared with the previous payment of New Year's coins to the country, after changing to mutual gifts, it is obviously a big step forward, and both sides are happy.

Once the most difficult issues are solved, the rest of the terms are negotiable.

After several days of discussions, the two sides quickly worked out the remaining terms. Every year, on the birthday of the emperors of the two countries, or the wedding of the emperor, the succession of the new monarch and other important times, the two countries should send envoys to each other to greet each other.

The Song side proposed that the two countries exchange envoys and open trade routes, so that merchants can do business freely.

This requirement was also suggested by Chen Liang, because handicrafts such as silk, silk, silk, tea, porcelain, and embroidery in the south are extremely popular in the north, not only in high demand, but also extremely expensive. In the north, only livestock, furs and other items can be sold and bought in the south, in contrast, if the two countries trade, the profit of the Great Song Dynasty will be greater than that of the Jin State. On the other hand, Yang Yan also wanted to take advantage of the trade between the two countries to set up a detailed work in the north, explore the reality of the gold, and prepare for the Northern Expedition in the future. Therefore, I also agree with Chen Liang's suggestion.

However, Wan Yan Yong also had a heart that the Song side took advantage of the trade between the two countries to send a wide range of fine works, so he refused to open a trade route. However, the Golden side also needed these goods from the south, so it agreed to open a trade fair between the two countries. In this regard, Song Fang did not force it and agreed.

In this way, after more than half a month of arduous negotiations, the two sides finally reached peace again.

And this time the peace negotiation, both sides are basically in an equal position, no one has suffered, compared with the Shaoxing peace negotiation back then, it is much stronger. Not only Liang Kejia and Hong Shi thought it was good, but even Chen Junqing and Han Yanzhi felt very satisfied. And achieving such a result has nothing to do with the emperor's toughness, and it also makes the officials look at this little emperor with admiration.

Chen Junqing also felt quite pleased, although Zhao Chen was appointed as the king at the beginning, some of them were forced by Yang Yan's pressure, but now it seems that this choice may not be wrong, maybe it is really the endless Song Dynasty in the sky, and there is a wise and promising king?
