Ever since Wanyan Aguda angrily denounced Daliao envoys Yelu Ge and Yelu Xi Nilie, the Jin Empire and Daliao Kingdom declared an armistice and ended the peace talks.
Yelu Nuge, Yelu Xinilie and other envoys from the Liao Kingdom left in despair.
Yelu Yanxi was furious when he heard that the peace talks had failed. He immediately fell to the ground and vomited blood. He rested for several days before calming down.
It is true to say that the Liao Kingdom pinned the hope of the survival of the country and the nation on the peace talks. It not only donated one-tenth of the country's taxes, but also donated 18 important towns such as Shangjing and Zhongjing. It can be said that it took great pains to squeeze out everything. After all the hard work, I didn’t expect that not only would the peace talks fail, but a large area of territory would be lost.
More importantly, since they heard that Wanyan Aguda of the Jin Empire had agreed to peace talks and a truce, Yelu Yanxi and his Liao Dynasty had relaxed their vigilance and only knew about hunting, drinking and having fun with their concubines.
It's better now. Wanyan Aguda of the Jin Empire tore up Daliao's credential and vowed to destroy Daliao. How should the Liao Dynasty, with its armaments depleted, lack of food and grass, and destroyed cities, deal with the victorious Dajin Iron Cavalry? People throughout the Liao Kingdom were in panic.
On the contrary, after Wanyan Aguda uttered arrogant words, he ordered Wanyan Lianggai, Wanyan Zonghan, Wanyan Xiyin and others to prepare to cut down Liao's grain and grass.
Order Wanyan Zongwang, Wanyan Loushi, Wanyan Hanlu, Wanyan Yinshuke and other officers to train and be ready for battle at all times.
He ordered Wanyan Wu to beg for purchases, Lalan Aqiang, Tang Kuo and others to travel around the country, make friends at a distance and attack close by, and form a maritime alliance with the Song Dynasty to win over all countries to send troops to destroy the Liao Dynasty.
However, no matter how strong a person's strength is, he will eventually be unable to withstand the ravages of time. Wanyan Aguda, who is over fifty, still cannot escape the entanglement of illness. The government and military affairs in the past few days made him ill, and he got better after resting for more than a month.
This day was the first time he dealt with government affairs after he recovered from his illness. The pile of memorials made him overwhelmed. After the dispersion of the dynasty, he quickly summoned Wanyan Sagai, Wanyan Xiyin, Wanyan Handai and Wanyan Wu Qingmai to discuss state affairs together.
Wanyan Aguda, who coughed a few times, suddenly said:
"Dear dear friends, in today's world, it seems that Jin is strong and Liao is weak, but this is just because the courtiers of the Liao Dynasty are timid. If the two countries fight, with the two hundred years of foundation of the Liao Dynasty, there is at least a 60% chance of winning. . Therefore, if the Jin Dynasty destroyed the Liao Dynasty, it would rely on force, but its strength would be insufficient."
"Yes, Your Majesty, the Daliao Dynasty is a centipede, dead but not stiff. I, Dajin, destroyed the Liao, not in one day, but in the efforts of several generations. But don't worry, I, Wanyan Sagai, have made sufficient preparations." The food and fodder can meet the needs of hundreds of thousands of troops, and His Majesty can go to war at any time."
"Hahaha, Brother Sa Gai, thank you for your help."
After finishing speaking, Wanyan Aguda continued:
"Brother Sa Gai, we are all old."
After Wanyan Aguda finished speaking, Wanyan Wu Qimai glanced affectionately at Wanyan Sagai next to him, and saw that his back was getting more and more hunched, his hair was getting more and more white, and his teeth were almost gone.
He looked at his brother Wanyan Aguda again, and he was reminded of the appearance of his father Wanyan Hailibao and his adopted father Wanyan Yingge for more than ten years. They looked so similar.
This also shows that his second emperor brother and cousin Wanyan Sa Gai are really old.
After a while, Wanyan Aguda continued:
"I have recovered from a serious illness this time, and I understand a lot. Fourth brother, I was wrong, and I am sorry for you."
When Wanyan Aguda said this, Wanyan Wu Qimai was so frightened that he immediately knelt down, thinking that he had made a mistake again and caused trouble for the emperor's second brother.
Wanyan Sagai, Wanyan Yinshuke, Wanyan Loushi, and Wanyan Handai looked at each other. No one knew what Wanyan Aguda was thinking about. After a moment of silence, Wanyan Aguda helped Wanyan Wu, who could not kneel down, to beg for money, and then the two hugged each other tightly.
Although Wanyan Wu Qimai didn't speak, he burst into tears. Over the years, their brotherhood has long ceased to exist, but now it has been restored again. How can one not be moved? Wanyan Sagai looked at everyone and nodded slightly.
After a while, Wanyan Aguda regained his authority as king of the world, sat upright in the high Jinluan Palace, and said loudly to everyone:
"According to my decree, according to the ancestral system of our Jurchens, the inheritance of the throne is from elder brother to younger brother. Therefore, after my death, my fourth brother Wanyan Wuwu begged to inherit the throne of the Kingdom of Jin. After today, Wanyan Wu will be restored to the throne. The beggar is well versed in Ban Bo’s extremely powerful position. I appreciate this.”
After Wanyan Aguda finished speaking, Wanyan Wu's feet went weak and he couldn't kneel down again.
At this moment, Wanyan Sagai, Wanyan Yinshuke, Wanyan Xiyin, Wanyan Loushi, Wanyan Hanlu and others immediately knelt down and said loudly:
"Long live the emperor, long live the emperor, I know that Banbo is a thousand years old, a thousand years old, a thousand years old."
Everyone knelt in front of Wanyan Aguda. Wanyan Wu Qimai had not yet recovered, so he could only say hesitantly:
"Your Majesty, my brother's prestige is not as good as Sa Gai's, and my military achievements are not as good as those of the Lou family. Why did I let my brother steal the position of Banbo Jilie, the most knowledgeable person in the Kingdom of Jin Dynasty?"
"Hahaha, fourth brother. Brother Sa Gai, Lou Shi, or even me and the Jurchen Kingdom of Jin, without your whimsical ideas and your strategies, where would the Kingdom of Jin be today? So, this You are well-versed in the position of Banbo, and you deserve it."
After Wanyan Aguda finished speaking, Wanyan Sagai also said pleasantly:
"Fourth brother, thank you quickly."
After finishing speaking, Wanyan Wu Qimai stood up slowly and said softly:
"My dear brother, thank you for your kindness. Long live your Majesty."
Everyone agreed and praised him one after another. After a while, Wanyan Aguda continued:
"Dear dear friends, I have spoken wildly and vowed not to give up until I destroy the Liao Dynasty. What do you think? Fourth brother, you are well versed in Banbo Jilie, so please speak first."
"Go back to the emperor. My younger brother believes that if we, the Kingdom of Jin, want to destroy the century-old dynasty of Liao, we can do it in three steps, all at the same time. It is also called walking on three legs."
"Ah ah ah, fourth brother, what does walking on three legs mean? I, Wanyan Sa, am old and don't understand. You'd better be more specific."
"Your Majesty, Brother Sagai. I think that the first leg is Brother Sagai. Because there is no supply of food, grass and horses, it is not enough to support tens of thousands of troops to attack Liao. Therefore, no matter what happens in the frontline war, Brother Sagai only needs to be responsible. The grain, grass and horses provide a steady stream of grain, grass and soldiers for our Dajin Iron Army."
"Well, this is natural. Brother Sagai, please worry more. Xiyin, from now on, you will be the deputy prime minister of our country. Come and help brother Sagai."
After Wanyan Aguda finished his peace talks, Wanyan Sagai and Wanyan Xiyin happily accepted the order. Wanyan Wu Qimai continued:
"The second leg is my cavalry of the Kingdom of Jin. They drive straight in and attack the five capitals of the Liao Dynasty. With the power of thunder, they take advantage of the fact that Yelu Yanxi is not fully prepared and hit him by surprise until the Liao Dynasty is destroyed."
"As for the third leg, it is to unite with the Song Dynasty to destroy the Liao Dynasty. I am willing to go to the Central Plains, unite the Song Dynasty court, Xixia, Dali and other countries, contact the world's martial arts heroes, and bring the end of the Liao Dynasty."
"Hahaha, good, good, good, walking on three legs, it's really wonderful. Fourth brother's words are exactly what I want."
"According to my decree, brother Sa Gai and Wanyan Xiyin will sit in Huining and take charge of the government affairs."
"My imperial commander personally marched, and Wanyan Zongbi, Wanyan Zongwang, Wanyan Zongxiong, Wanyan Loushi, Wanyan Yinshuke, Wanyan Shigunai and others accompanied him. One month later, we will attack Shangjing."
"Wanyan Wu Qimai, Nalan Aqiang, Tang Kuo Zhongyuan, Tang Kuo Hui'er, Nalan Agu, A Xina, Wang Ping and others went to the Song Dynasty as envoys to form a maritime alliance, and the Song Dynasty destroyed the Liao Dynasty."
After Wanyan Aguda finished speaking, everyone immediately knelt down and shouted long live the emperor.
