The morning wind was chilly, and it made people feel excited. A red sun rose in the east, emitting thousands of rays of light swept under the Yinshan Mountains and on the vast grassland.

There are wild beasts running in the distance, and occasionally there are shadows of wild horses. The grass has already withered yellow, and it makes a creaking sound when stepped on it. A geese chirping pierces the sky, shattering the tranquility on the grassland at the foot of the mountain.

Xu Ping faced the rising sun in the east and said to Fan Zhongyan who was walking over: "How can you rest? It's clear, so we'll go to meet the two envoys of the Khitan for a while. The time has arrived, and the army cannot wait here."

Fan Zhong looked around and nodded: "The Dangxiang grain storage that I had already eaten almost the same food and grass as the food behind needed to be transported thousands of miles. It is indeed not a solution to wait here. It is September now, and the war before the New Year is about to end."

"Yes, how can I wait like this? Is it a fight or a good match, and I'll have a good fight!"

Xu Ping said as he turned over and went straight east with Fan Zhongyan.

A new military tent was set up under the Qingzhong, which was the place for negotiation between the two sides. It was in the middle of Fengzhou and Yunneizhou. In fact, according to the previous rules, this was not necessary. This was the one who sent envoys to the opposite side. After the talks, the opposite side sent envoys to come over. They relayed the messages many times by the middlemen. The real leaders rarely met. This time, Xu Ping proposed that the two sides brought the same troops, and the two sides faced each other and set up accounts to negotiate. If you have any questions, you should be beaten and withdraw.

Before the tent, Xu Ping and Fan Zhongyan dismounted together, and after celebrating with Yelu Renxian and Liu Liufu on the opposite side, they entered the tent together.

After entering the military tent, according to their respective garrison positions, Xu Ping and Fan Zhongyan were in the west, Yelu Renxian and Liu Liufu were in the east, and both sides took seats. The Khitans were respected on the east, and the Han people's rule was respected on the south, and the guest seat was higher than the west. After Yelu Renxian and Liu Liufu sat down, they were very satisfied with this arrangement and had already overwhelmed the Song Dynasty in their seats.

Five followers were brought on each side. After drinking and meat, they were separated from the account and could not be recorded without summoning. The four people in the account did not bring swords, so as not to quarrel for a while and could not be dealt with inadvertently.

Yelu Renxian was deployed by the Khitan palace capital at this time, and Liu Liufu was a Hanlin bachelor, and his identity was about the same as Xu Ping and Fan Zhongyan. The negotiation at least showed negotiations between equal forces.

After the follower went out, Yelu Ren first grabbed the wine glass on the table and said, "This place is originally a Khitan land. Someone is the master, the guardian is the guest, and let's drink a drink!"

Xu Ping smiled and said, "This is the middle place, and it doesn't matter to the host and the guest. Today's wine is brought by me, and the meat is brought by the king, and no one invites anyone. Okay, after drinking this glass of wine, we will discuss the main business. We have finished the talk a long time ago, so everyone will have another two drinks!"

After saying that, he raised his glass with Fan Zhong and drank it all in one go.

Yelu Renxian drank the wine like Liu Liufu, put down the wine glass, and felt a little disappointed.

Liu Liufu said: "Protector, we all come here on the orders of the court and should be loyal to the king's affairs, so we will discuss matters!"

Xu Ping nodded and pushed the wine glass aside and said, "To be honest, this dynasty believes that it is very appropriate to divide the territory according to the occupation of each army. The place where we sit is the border. A thousand years ago, Mingfei married far away, was originally a Han Chinese, but went to the desert to bear the burden of the two countries. The border is here, and I think about the achievements of Mingfei's marriage a thousand years ago to show the good of the two countries. Isn't that good?"

After hearing this, Yelu Ren blushed and stood up to argue. Liu Liufu gently pulled his sleeves down and asked him to sit back again. He said to Xu Ping: "Protector, this is originally Fengzhou, and naturally it is the Khitan territory. Forty years ago, the two countries had a vow to guard the border troops along the border, and the people and households of the two places were not allowed to invade each other. Protector wanted to set up the border here, which was obviously to invade our territory. This was a breach of the alliance! With this alliance of Yu, it would not be possible to enjoy the country. Zhao Zhaotianjian should be punished by it! This vow had told the gods of heaven and earth that year, and the violators were unknown! The Protector was greedy for merit, so he wanted the State of Song to be punished by heaven?!"

"Does your territory invade your territory? The bachelor said this and it is a prudent. Since I led the army to attack Dangxiang deprived people from Qinzhou to this place, I have never fought with the Khitan people, nor have I seized an inch of Khitan land. After Dangxiang's defeat, I heard that our clan was oppressed under the Khitan government and it was difficult to survive the sun. Especially when Qu Lie took his headquarters out of the Khitan government, the southwest Zhaodan Department sent troops to intercept and kill them, and brazenly entered the previous Dangxiang land. The Dangxiang people were not angry that their clan was regarded as pigs and dogs, and they were instantly aroused, killing Xiao Puda and others in the southwest Zhaodan. This matter was first when Xiao Puda invaded Dangxiang, and the Dangxiang people fought back later. The reason why they occupied these state troops was that the Dangxiang people did not want their tribe to be poisoned by you again, it had nothing to do with me."

When Xu Ping said this, Yelu Ren was stunned for a moment and couldn't figure out what he was saying. It was originally a conversation between Song and Khitan, but why did he get involved in the destruction of Dangxiang? He couldn't help but turn to look at Liu Liufu.

Liu Liufu said in a deep voice: "Xiao Puda did not enter the Dangxiang land. The place where he died was originally the land of Dongshengzhou!"

Xu Ping shook his head: "No, I asked clearly, it was the place of Dangxiang. Shengzhou was originally the territory of Dangxiang, and it was stolen from the Dangxiang people after the Khitan conquest. After the war, the old city on the left bank of the river was abandoned and the new east Shengzhou was established. The old land of Shengzhou was naturally Dangxiang. This is clear, and it is clear that the scholars cannot rely on it!"

Liu Liufu said: "It's really unclear where. Even if the Dangxiang people think it's their old land, it's Dangxiang's business. But now the guardians who occupy Dongshengzhou and Yunneizhou are the guardians! Those who come to demarcate the boundaries are also the guardians!"

"This is natural! Dangxiang is unofficial and has been destroyed. His people will naturally become the people of the court, and his land will naturally be the territory of the court."

Yelu Renxian couldn't help it, pressed his hand on the desk and said in a deep voice: "But this was the territory of our country before, but now the troops of your Song State are stationed! You said that you did not invade my territory, how could there be troops of the Song State on your territory!"

Xu Ping looked at Fan Zhongyan, then Liu Liufu, and finally said to Yelu Renxian: "How strange, because your land was occupied by Dangxiang, and Dangxiang was destroyed by me, the land will naturally be the land of this dynasty. You should thank me. Dangxiang's army was going to go straight to Yunzhou, but I persuaded them to stop in front of Fengzhou City. Otherwise, we would not talk here, but to go to Dezhou to talk!"

Liu Liufu reached out to hold Yelu Renxian and said to Xu Ping: "The two countries have good friendship and protect themselves. Even if you occupy the Dangxiang people invade our land, you should return it to show your brotherhood."

Xu Ping shook his head: "The oath was not written like this, so naturally he shouldn't do this. When you encounter such a thing, the Khitan occupied our prefectures and counties, don't you do to others, right? Bachelor, don't do to others what you don't want!"

"If this dynasty quells the rebellion and occupy the prefectures and counties of Song State, it must be returned! Brotherly countries should do this!" As long as Xu Ping still wants to reason, Liu Liufu felt that it was possible to talk about it, and maybe he could bring the two states back in this tent.

Xu Ping looked at Liu Liufu, shook his head slowly, and asked, "Jingluo Fan, you will lead your troops into Tanglong Town and kill the traitors of the Song Dynasty to Shoushun. Are there any Khitan soldiers and horses?"

Fan Zhongyan bowed: "Go back to the vassal of the Protector, there are about a thousand Khitan soldiers and horses!"

"Have they helped you kill Lai Shushun!"

Fan Zhongyan said loudly: "No! Khitan soldiers and horses came to guard Shun to cause chaos, saying that it was already a Khitan prefecture. I once persuaded the Khitan guards in every possible way, saying that the place occupied by the Khitan people was Khitan land! I brought all the evidence and confessions of these people at that time!"

Xu Ping looked at Liu Liufu's eyes and asked word by word: "Bachelor, don't you say that Tang Long Town is not the territory of the Song Dynasty, right?"

Liu Liufu sweated on his forehead. After the incident in Tanglong Town, the Song Dynasty had only negotiated once or twice, and he never mentioned it again. Until Fan Zhongyan led the army of Fuyan Road to capture it again, he never negotiated with the Khitan again. The Khitan soldiers captured at that time were not followed or sent back to the Khitan. The Khitans did not ask again because of guilt. Liu Liufu always felt that this was a hidden danger. He had been lucky before, but now he knew that the Song Dynasty had already put this handle here.

Sighing, Liu Liufu said, "Speaking from the heart, I can't lie. Tang Long Town is indeed Song Tu."

"According to the brotherhood, should the Khitan soldiers be there? Should we kill Lai Shoushun and return the land to us?"

Yelu Renxian said angrily: "Why? It is the land of Lai Family. They are willing to dedicate their land to their own country. We will collect it! What did you do wrong? "

Xu Ping nodded: "You think it's right. Yes, now my army occupied these two states, what do you think?"

Liu Liufu hurriedly said, "Protector, we made a mistake in Tanglong Town, and we should be punished. More than a thousand soldiers were not under the hands of Zhengluo Fan, so you can let you deal with it. We were wrong once, why should your country make mistakes again?"

Xu Ping said: "Bachelor, the country of brothers is not a country of father and son. There is no good reason why you are wrong. You are wrong once, we are wrong once, and this will reveal the truth. Of course, if you think it is not wrong in Tanglong Town, then it is not wrong for my army to occupy Dongshengzhou and Yunneizhou. The reason is your reason. Da Song is my brother, let you do it once!"

Liu Liufu said: "What does this mean by protector?"

"If you think it's right, you occupy Tanglong Town, I occupy Dongsheng, and Yunnei Prefectures, and do not violate the oath, then if this happens again, no one will say that anyone will break the alliance. If you think it's wrong, then you will make mistakes once. The Song Dynasty is wrong once, and everyone will not suffer losses at each other at once. This is what I'm going to say. My Song Dynasty is my brother, right or wrong, let you tell me!"

Yelu Renxian said: "But now Tanglong Town is still guarded by the Song army. You can give up the two states of Yunnei!"

Xu Ping sneered and pointed at Fan Zhongyan and said, "Tanglong Town was captured by Zhengliu, whom you gave it up?"

"Okay, we will lead our troops to capture the two states of Dongsheng and Yunnei, and then we will expose it!"

Xu Ping spread his hands: "Since that's the case, let's fight!"
Chapter completed!
