In fact, Cai Jing is deceiving people.

He is also as afraid of Liao as Su Zhe!

The Great Song Dynasty has bullied the Khitan for more than 100 years, how many officials are not afraid of Liao? They all grew up listening to stories about "how the Khitan was murderous". The fear of Liao has long been deeply rooted in the bone marrow!

If there is anyone in the Great Song Dynasty who is really not afraid of Liao, it is most likely the guy from the Boundary River Knight Academy under the command of Wu Haogu. Because they are all Liao scholars, and some are simply Han Chinese or Jurchens of the Liao State. If you know Liao too well, you are naturally not afraid of them.

Of course, the current Liao army is a little more powerful than the Song army, and even those so-called new armies that have completed military reform may not be able to defeat the Liao army in field battles, but they will not suffer too much loss. The advantage of the new army is that it has strong combat effectiveness and can inflict huge casualties on the Liao army. The advantage of the Liao army is that it is super mobile, and it can form an absolute local superiority in forces through rapid maneuvering, and it can also rely on its excellent maneuverability to strike at the logistics line of the Song army.

In short, the advantage of the new army of the Song army was tactical, while the advantage of the Liao army was strategic. However, as long as the Jurchens and Bu rebelled in the rear of the Liao State, the strategic advantage of the Liao army would be lost. Because the Liao State had to divide a considerable number of elite cavalry for the Divination and Jurchen.

In this case, it was not very difficult for the Hebei Xuanfu Division to seize the city of Xijin Prefecture.

And the fleet controlled by the Xuanfu Division of Hebei is also a powerful strategic strike force. You can throw troops at will on the long coastline of Liao, and you can also contain a large number of Liao soldiers.

In addition, the distance between Jiehe Shang City and Xijin Prefecture City is not too far. It is also possible to ensure the connection between the Jiehe merchant city and the province of Sijin by building an inland river fleet that can move on the Sangan and Gaoliang rivers.

Therefore, the general army engine room of the Hebei Xuanfu Division is the real main battle faction - even if there is no obstruction and Jurchen help, they have a way to break through and hold the city of Xijin Mansion!

However, what the general army engine room of the Xuanfu Division of Hebei is really sure of is only the areas along the Jiehe River, the north-flowing Yellow River, and the Sanggan River-Gaoliang River.

Elsewhere, I'm not sure.

In addition to these "Liao-knowing factions" of the Xuanfu Division in Hebei, the Song people who can really be said to be not afraid of Liao are probably only Ji Yi, who has now swaggered back to Baghdad City.

He can't be said to be the Zhiliao faction, he is the one who opens his eyes to see the world.

In front of him was a world, an era that belonged to the ocean. And his country is now precisely the master of the world's oceans. As the master of the sea, the Great Song Empire had the capital to carry out a protracted struggle with land powers such as the Khitan and Jurchen.

From this point of view, even if the Great Song Dynasty paid protection money to the Khitans, it would not change the fact that Zhao Ji owned the four seas.

Zhao Ji is the most veritable emperor with the four seas, that is, Genghis Khan!

Whether it's the Khitans or the Jurchens, they are very powerful on land. But when it comes to the sea, who of them can challenge the fleet of the Sea Route City Ship Control Division?

This possibility simply does not exist!

As for the Great Food Nation (Seljuk Turks), it was quite tough before. At one time, he detained the fleet of the Great Song Mission that stayed in Basra, and refused to allow Ji Yi and the Roman Song Mission to pass through. But don't you know how powerful it is now? Because the news of Sanjar's defeat at Green Ridge has reached Baghdad!

Even Sanjar is so capable of fighting, he has lost ugly, and if he is not convinced, the heavenly soldiers of the Great Song Dynasty will have to come to Baghdad to convince people.

Therefore, Caliph Mustazir and the Seljuk Sultan Mehmet I are now holding a banquet in the Tuancheng Palace in Baghdad to apologize to Ji Yi, Li Gang and the entire Great Song Dynasty.

He was accompanied by Cardinal Virgil, the emissary of the Pope, and Michel, the representative of the Republic of Venice. Domenico, as well as the representative of the Eastern Roman Empire, John Brown. Komnenos (he was the nephew of Alexios I).

"Your Excellency the Ambassador, His Majesty and I feel deeply guilty for the previous offense, so we have prepared a generous gift for you and the entire members of the Mission to express our apologies......"

The one who was apologizing to Ji Yi, Li Gang and others in an extremely diligent tone was none other than the Seljuk Turkic Sultan Mehmed I. And the "sincerity" of him and the caliph was now stacked in the center of the hall, and a whole thirty large suitcases, the lids were opened, and they were all full of golden pieces, all full of gold coins.

Full of sincerity!

However, Ji Yi seemed to have little interest.

Muhammad I slapped his hands again, and dozens of able-bodied black slaves walked in, and they worked in pairs to carry a leather suitcase, and twenty leather suitcases were placed in the hall, and when the lid was opened, it was also a piece of gold......

"Hmm." Ji Yi nodded and gave the Mo lady beside him a look.

Mo Niangzi is wearing a white gown, a red bandeau today, a cyan skirt, and her hair is scattered over her shoulders, which is very angry. Appearing in the Caliph's palace in such a way is really disrespectful to the customs of the Heavenly Sect.

However, as long as the prince of Tian Khan and his old man (referring to Zhao Zhongshun) does not come to Baghdad with a large army, customs and other things are easy to discuss.

"Your Excellency the Ambassador has accepted your gift!" Mo Niangzi's tone was cold.

That's great!

Mustazr and Muhammad I were so happy!

Ambassador Ji is willing to accept the gift, which means that there is still room for clear explanation of the misunderstanding between Peach Blossom Stone and Da Shiguo.

"His Majesty the Caliph and I have also prepared several boatloads of gold coins, all of which are for His Majesty the Heavenly Khan of the Peach Blossom Stone Country."

A few boatloads of gold coins...... As long as the rules of thin and thick exchanges are thrown aside, these are enough for Zhao Ji to hold a celebration of the coming of all countries and a Mount Tai Feng Zen.

If it's not enough, there are also Zhuyuan countries, Baltic countries, and Srivijaya countries waiting to line up to send money!

That's the benefit of having the ocean, you can use the world's resources at your disposal, and money and food are not a problem at all.

"Really?" Ji Yi smiled, "Are you also going to send an embassy to Kaifeng Mansion?" ”

"yes." Harry laughed, "The Prophet taught us to seek knowledge, even if it is far away. Therefore, we have to send a huge mission to China, not only to seek knowledge, but also to present to the greatest emperor of the world the unique title of 'Great Khan of the Four Seas'." From now on, we will recognize his empire as ruling over the four seas. ”

Ji Yi smiled and looked at the cardinal archbishop present, "I really didn't expect that His Majesty the Caliph and the Roman Grand Dharma King reached a consensus on the issue of recognizing that my Son of Heaven owns the sea. ”

It turned out that the Holy See and the Eastern Roman Empire were also hinted at by Ji Yi and presented Zhao Ji with a similar honorific title - the master of the world's oceans.

His words were translated into Arabic and Latin by Murly.

Cardinal Virgil of the Holy See was an excellent diplomat, and when he heard the words of the Mo Lady, he immediately smiled and said: "Mr. Ambassador, there is actually a lot of consensus between us and the caliph...... In fact, the Creator worshipped by Christianity and Celestial Christianity is the same. ”

Christianity, Celestialism and Judaism are actually of the same origin, they are all so-called apocalyptic religions, and their beliefs are all derived from the so-called "revelation of God". Different "revelations" lead to different beliefs. But in the final analysis, the source of faith is the same, that is, the worship of the Creator.

"The Mahogany also believe in the Creator," Murly said to Virgil in Latin, "but the Mahogany people's belief in the Lord does not come from the Lord's revelation, but from their more than a thousand years of painstaking searching." This is what makes Taohuashi people different from us! ”

The "Lord" of the Chinese mentioned by Mo Li is actually "Tianli", that is, "Tao". It's the same as the source of everything, the difference is just the way to find the source. The "Apocalypse" gave rise to two of the world's three major religions, while China, which took the route of "seeking", was stuck by the lack of tools for more than 2,000 years......

But on this plane, things are very different. Ten years after Wu Haogu proposed the Positivist Theory, Ji Yi's mission had already found the full essence of Greek philosophy from Baghdad, Constantinople, and Rome.

……

"It's been a long time! Who is this? Is he also a good man in the Wanyan Department? ”

"Xuan Shuai, a certain family also misses you...... This is the uncle of a certain family, Ah Lihe, whose Han name is Wang Yi. ”

"Ahh Is that the first wise man of your Wanyan Division? ”

"Don't dare to be, don't dare to be ......"

Just when Ji Yi was about to finish his first trip to the West and return to the Central Plains. Wu Haogu greeted the female envoy Wanyan Xian who came from afar in Jiehe Shang City, and Wanyan was also clutched with Wanyan.

They came for the Third Lazy War. The endless wars of the Goryeo people did cause a lot of trouble to the Jurchen tribal alliance. In particular, the third war, which began last winter, was stronger than the previous Goryeo army because the Bebu Ban trained by Yoon was stronger than the previous Goryeo army, and it also used trickery to gain the first hand and occupy favorable terrain. In addition, after obtaining favorable terrain, Yoon also built nine castles based on the terrain as a stronghold of Goryeo in the Holadian area.

This is a bit poking at the weakness of the Jurchens. Although they were not afraid of field battles, they had little to do about the siege. The nine castles are like nine sharp knives stuck in the land of Lazy Dian, which cannot be pulled out, and they continue to cause blood loss to the nascent Jurchen Alliance.

Some helpless Wu Yashu even wanted to give up Lazy Dian for a while, although he was stopped by Ah Guta, but how to regain the lost territory of Lazy Dian was a big problem. In the end, Wan Yan Xian also mentioned Wu Haogu's ability to attack the city and pull out the village, so there was this trip between Wan Yan Xian and Wan Yan A.
