Chapter 721 Are the conditions we offered not generous enough?
Chapter 721
Xiao Wuna smiled and signaled that Pochao Xinde, who looked tired, sat down and asked someone to give him tea. "Forget it, I will naturally know at that time. I am too lazy to spend more brainpower. On the contrary, with the wisdom of Wang Wushan, he would definitely not do this..."
"Why?" Pochao Xinde looked at Xiao Wuna in amazement.
"I don't know, this is just my intuition, I think he won't do this." Xiao Wuna hadn't said anything yet. Since Wang Yang and Wang Wushan considered that the other party would do this, he might put his heart in favor. With this person's scheming, he would probably not do such a thing that would not be worthy of gains or losses.
In contrast, the current practice of Xixia is somewhat like seeking medical treatment when she is in a hurry to get sick.
Xiao Wunachong Pochao Xinde asked with a chirp. "By the way, brother Xinde, those young and strong people who live in separate camps must not be the real people of the Song Dynasty, right?"
"The ministers are not sure about this matter, but their clothes must be Han people." Pochao Xinde said a little stiffly.
"Hey, you really underestimate the heroes in the world." Xiao Wuna shook his head helplessly.
"My elder, I don't know when the Liao Shangguo will send troops. The longer the Song people stayed in these three states, the more difficult it will be for us to regain these lands." Pochao Xinde simply changed the topic.
"Don't worry, it won't take long. Your country and our Daliao have now become a country of father-in-law and son-in-law. Now the Western Xia is in a critical life and death, and our Daliao will definitely not ignore it. However, war is a major matter for the country. Once our Daliao elites move south, the world will inevitably be turbulent and life will be devastated..."
"I hope the elders can urge more so that the Liao Kingdom can send troops faster, I am Xixia..."
The two of them were still having a secret conversation, but on the other side, Zhe Keshi was listening to Gao Shi, who was about to become tired and exhausted, reported.
"According to the regulations that Wang Jingluo gave us, we have conducted repeated inspections. Among them, there are more than 500 households whose identities are difficult to clarify, and more than 800 young and strong people claim to be plundered craftsmen..."
"According to the craftsmen we brought to conduct a check, they are quite good at the workshop's farm tools and even weapons production."
"Craftsmen? Haha, maybe they are really craftsmen, but since their identities are difficult to clarify, it is very likely that they are Han craftsmen from Xixia, not craftsmen from my Song Dynasty." Zhe Keshi had a gloomy face and sneered coldly.
"Then what should these people do? Is it necessary..." Gao Shize couldn't help but look at Zhe Keshi with a puzzled look on his face and asked.
"Of course not, nor do you need it. Since they are Han people, they are not Dangxiang people, just let them stay. As for how to deal with it, it is better to leave it to Wang Jinglei. I believe he will have a better way to deal with this matter."
"By the way, the general, those who are difficult to clarify have their identities checked by doctors. There are few calluses on the left palm and thick calluses on the right palm; there are nearly 700 people with thick index fingers in their right hand, but about 300 of these 700 people are from families, and there are more than 400, and they also call themselves craftsmen. However, after checking by our craftsmen, they have rough answers, and there is obviously something wrong with them."
Hearing this, Zhe Keshi's eyes turned and fell on a general standing beside him. "General Wu..."
"The last one will be here!"
"The more than 500 households whose identities are difficult to clarify are placed separately in camps. As for those young and strong, remember to send additional personnel to monitor them and pay attention to their movements at any time, but do not make any moves for the time being to avoid alarming the enemy. Now, we don't have to do too much, everything is based on stability."
"Don't worry, General, I will do it." General Wu respectfully responded to the promise and took the order. After Zhe Keshi discussed with Gao Shize, he wrote a letter himself and handed it to his personal guards, asking him to pass the letter immediately and rush to Yanzhou to hand it over to Wang Yang, the governor of the Three Prefectures.
"Wei Mingqing, will our plan work?" Li Ganshun walked around the palace a little restlessly. His young and handsome face seemed so tired and haggard at this moment.
Wei Ming Awu replied respectfully. "Your Majesty, no matter whether it works or not, at least we have done our part. As long as we have a little chance, we need to continue."
Renda Zongbao next to him couldn't help but nod. "This is true, why can the Song people always appear all kinds of strange but extremely terrifying weapons? In front of these weapons, the personal bravery of my Daxia warriors seems so insignificant."
These words made many important officials of Xixia in the Xixia Palace bow their heads and feel sad. Especially Fei Tingdarong, who returned to Xingqing Mansion under the title of defeated general, looked extremely sad at this moment.
As for Sa Chen, the chief general of the first army, he was deaf in both ears, and was severely damaged by the strategy he offered, which led to the loss of troops and generals in Daxia and suffered heavy losses. Now, he has been demoted to serve as a civilian. Maybe he is squatting on his couch and crying.
His niece-in-law became a trash. Although he was lucky enough to survive, although he was not the main general, he was under considerable pressure and was downgraded to three levels in a row.
Fei Tingdarong believed that if it weren't for the current loss of troops and generals in the Western Xia Dynasty, his talents were withered, and he was also a party involved who had personally experienced the power of the new weapons of the Song State, he knew more comprehensively, and he probably wouldn't even have the opportunity to sit here to discuss military and national affairs.
"Our envoy has been sent for nearly a month, but why hasn't the news been heard yet? Does the Emperor of the Great Liao feel that the conditions we offered are not generous enough?" Li Ganshun slowly sat back to his position and glanced at the important civil and military officials in front of him.
Since Xiao Liang was captured, the powerful ministers in the court were dismissed because they belonged to the Liang clan. Among the important officials, most of the eight tribes of the Dangxiang clans were the Dangxiang clans, and some had already surrendered to Li Ganshun in private, and many were recommended by the Dangxiang clans.
Fortunately, although Renduo Zhongbao and Wei Ming Awu, two important officials who hold military power, have their own selfish intentions, they are still loyal to themselves, the emperor of the Western Xia.
Especially since I agreed to the suggestion of the envoy of the Great Liao Dynasty and decided to ask for marriage from the Great Liao Dynasty, all the turbulent tides in the Great Xia country almost stopped as soon as possible.
This made Li Ganshun finally have a breath of magnanimity. At least his status as the king of Daxia is unshakable, but Daxia suffered too heavy losses due to the previous battles with the Song Dynasty.
And within the scope controlled by Daxia, many local forces were already ready to move. Even in the farther Western Regions, some people have already publicly promoted the abolition of the alliance with Daxia and to pay tribute to the Song Dynasty.
