With the sound of gentle footsteps, on the hillside, two figures appeared in front of them with a few personal guards. One of them was Song Jiang in gold armor and red clothes, while the other looked to be in his fifties. , but still burly and strong, wearing a velvet king's hat on his head, and holding a hip flask casually in his left hand. If Song Jiang is restrained and domineering, then this man is like a prairie wolf king. Even though he has entered middle age, he is full of majesty. The sharpness was still clearly visible, and a hint of curiosity shone in his resolute and domineering eyes.
It was Wanyan Aguda, the founding king of the Jin Kingdom, the man who single-handedly defeated millions of elites of the Liao Kingdom.
When the distance between the two was only three steps, the guards of both sides stood in front of them.
"What are you doing??" Wanyan Aguda took a look, pushed the bodyguard away carelessly, looked at Song Jiang and said with a smile: "I heard that during the battle in Jinan Mansion, King Qi's martial arts were unparalleled, and you just couldn't protect him even if you wanted to. Step aside"
When Song Jiang heard this, he also told Hua Rong to step away, "Your Majesty Wanyan is so grateful. I heard that your Majesty was able to carry the cauldron with his strength when he was young, and even several strong men were no match for him!!"
Wanyan Aguda took a closer look and said with a smile: "Ever since the Jin-Song Dynasty made an alliance at sea, I have found that Song Ting is cowardly and weak in combat, and values civility over military affairs. But I didn't expect that there would be a hero like you, Your Highness, King Qi. !!”
"Your Majesty Wanyan has given me the award. My achievements are nothing compared to your Majesty's."
"Really??" After Wanyan Aguda said, he sat casually on the ground and pointed to the opposite side.
After seeing Song Jiang also sit down, Wanyan Aguda said seriously: "King Qi was born among the rogue bandits in Caomang, and he was able to unify the land east of Jingdong, defeat hundreds of thousands of Song Dynasty elites, go north to conquer Liao, capture Nanjing, and take over the lands of Yanyun and Wuzhou. , Seize Xiongguan, live in mediocrity and stand on my own, if you have achieved this, if you still fall short, our country of Jin will be incompetent."
When Song Jiang heard this, he sighed: "It's just the current situation."
"Haha, that's right. It's the current situation. If the Liao Dynasty had not been fatuous, my Jurchen warriors, even if they were ten times braver, would not be strong. If it were not for the decay of the Song court, you, Song Jiang, with your great talents and indiscriminate strategies, would not be able to reach today. To tell you the truth, if it were not for your existence, even if I am old, my descendants will definitely seize the world of the Song Dynasty." Wanyan Aguda said coldly,
When Song Jiang heard this, he shook his head and said: "Even if I have this king, the future kings of the Jin Kingdom may not give up. However, there are talents in the country. I cannot see what happens in the future. But as long as I am still here, the Jin Kingdom will not give up." I can’t cross it!!”
"Really??" Wanyan Agu's eyes turned cold.
"Your Majesty, do you want to give it a try??"
After the two looked at each other for a moment, they suddenly burst into laughter. Then Wanyan Agu shook his head and said: "Although the Kingdom of Jin has reached today, it has reached its limit. If we continue to fight, there will be no big gains. On the contrary, There will be problems, but in order to appease the soldiers below, the State of Qi really needs to obey our Kingdom of Jin as the master, and send another princess to make the marriage!!"
Upon hearing this, Song Jiang said seriously: "Then let's fight!!"
Wanyan Aguda was stunned, "The land of the Song Dynasty is extremely rich. Wouldn't King Qi be reluctant to give him some gold and silver?? As for the princess' arrival, it is also to stabilize the alliance."
"Gold and silver are collected from the taxes of the common people. They are taken from the people and will be used for the people. As for the marriage of a princess, in the eyes of the descendants of the Yan and Huang Dynasties, it has always been the most shameful. If a man is heroic, he will be beaten. Fighting, relying on a woman for stability, is not a hero, Qin Huang can't do it, Han Wu can't do it, Tang Zong can't do it, and neither can I!!"
"Don't say that I haven't lost yet. Even if I lose, I won't give it. I, Da Qi, are not Da Song. Of course, we can live in peace, but I, Song Jiang, can't do it with grievances and seek peace. Even hundreds of thousands of troops won't allow it. If Your Majesty, Wanyan, has no objection to this kind of marriage. In order to ensure the alliance, the Kingdom of Jin can send a princess over every year, how about it??"
Wanyan Aguda's face darkened, "It seems that King Qi doesn't know my temper??"
Song Jiang took a look and said coldly: "No, it should be that Your Majesty Wanyan doesn't know my temperament."
The guards next to them looked at the two people who had looked harmonious just now, chatting and laughing, and suddenly started to argue.
"Since that's the case, what are we talking about?" Wanyan Aguda suddenly stood up, and a strong murderous intention immediately spread.
Song Jiang took a look, stood up slowly, and suddenly said with a arrogant look: "Your Majesty Wanyan, it is best to understand that it is you who wrote the letter to discuss with me. Don't do this to me. I am not from the Song Dynasty." Official, I once killed a concubine and was imprisoned. Along the way, I was almost beheaded several times. Let me tell you, I don’t even have a single copper coin, let alone a princess. If you don’t collect the dowry, I will do it. Even your Jin country can’t marry an ordinary woman!!”
Seeing this scene, the guards on both sides drew their weapons and glared angrily.
After Wanyan Aguda took a look, he threatened with a cold expression: "I originally thought that King Qi had a great talent, but I didn't expect to be so impulsive. It seems that you don't want the Central Plains anymore?"
"Yes, I don't want it anymore!!" Song Jiang responded directly, causing Wanyan Agu's pupils to shrink.
"Not only the Central Plains, but also Jingdong, I can give up. I will stay in Nanjing and fight with you to the end of the Jin Kingdom. Do you believe it or not, I will make you unable to leave here?" After Song Jiang said sternly, there was a fierce murderous aura. , Wanyan Aguda's face suddenly changed.
Seeing Song Jiang's elegance completely disappearing and suddenly turning into a gangster, Wanyan Aguda was stunned for a moment, then suddenly smiled bitterly and threw the wine bottle in his hand, "Interesting, it seems that I will never be able to go to the big house in this life." Song took a look, people like you should be born in our country of Jin, with interests first and glory as the basis!!"
"Your Majesty, if you want, you can come at any time." Song Jiang looked at the wine bottle and threw it back.
"Are you afraid?" Wanyan Aguda said in surprise.
"Yes, I'm afraid you'll poison me," Song Jiang replied honestly.
"Hahaha" Wanyan Aguda laughed loudly and said with appreciation: "Okay, this is the caution an emperor should have. It is not about the righteousness of the country. Personal honor and disgrace are nothing. I have gone through the battlefield and finally came to a conclusion. That is, as long as people are alive, they still have a chance. If they die, everything will be meaningless."
Song Jiang took a look and sighed: "Actually, I am not without sincerity. The two parties can reach a trade through purchase, and our country, Qi, will not block the opening of the market. There is another thing that your majesty may want to consider!"
"you say??"
"Why does the Kingdom of Jin have to keep an eye on me, the Song Dynasty? This world is not as big as your Majesty Wanyan thinks. In addition, the cavalry of the Kingdom of Jin are good at fighting but not good at farming. Even if they capture the Song Dynasty, they will not gain much. On the contrary, they will Therefore, gradually losing their original wildness, this world-wide cavalry will easily decay."
"Then you mean there is still a place in the Jin Kingdom where we can fight?" Wanyan Aguda asked curiously.
“Of course, please!!”
After the two people sat down again, Hua Rong and others immediately breathed a sigh of relief. If these two people really faced each other, the hundreds of thousands of troops below would start fighting directly.
