Chapter 956

However, what Xiao Wuna did not expect was that after waiting in Xiazhou for two days, the imperial edict of the Emperor Yelu Hongji of the Great Liao Dynasty was late.

Xiao Wuna, who was full of expectations and returned the order, listened to the order of the Emperor of the Liao Dynasty, turned dark. The imperial edict did not mention the plans he mentioned before. He just praised himself and encouraged his previous achievements. Then he hoped that he would rush back to Shangjing as soon as possible and return to his job as soon as possible.

"Mr. Han, your Majesty has no other explanation except for asking you to come and announce the edict?" After receiving the edict, Xiao Wuna did not care about losing his composure and pulled the edict to a secluded place and asked.

"Mr. Your Majesty has indeed given you an oral order. You are loyal to the Great Liao. I am very pleased. However, I, Great Liao, have now lost too much to Xixia, and cannot be too intimate." Lord Han said in a low voice.

"That's what Your Majesty said?" Xiao Wuna's face looked even more ugly, but he asked without giving up. Lord Han sighed lightly, nodded, and said no more.

"Your Majesty is simply...ah!" Xiao Wuna stamped his feet angrily, but he was helpless.

Lord Han bowed to Xiao Wu, and then he went to convey His Majesty's other will to Yelu Dadun.

That night, when Xiao Wuna, who was unwilling to give up, found Yelu Dadun, could only spread his hands helplessly. "It's not that the lower official does not want to help you, Master, but Your Majesty has an order. Our Daliao and Xixia are the country of father-in-law and son-in-law. We should not initiate border quarrels lightly. If the lower official violates it, it will be that he will not obey the order."

After hitting a wall everywhere, Xiao Wuna finally died of this heart and left Xiazhou that night. However, Xiao Wuna also took a walk along the Wuding River.

Looking at the Shizhou City on the other side of the Wuding River, although there were sparks, he finally sighed and stopped his horse and never looked back.

"As expected, the Song people were indeed thinking about going to Shizhou..." In Shizhou City, a general in Shizhou could not help but feel bitter and said in his face after seeing the letter sent by Pochao Xinde from Hongzhou.

"Sir, isn't Shizhou really unable to defend it?"

"How can we defend? Our military rations can only last for a month at most. Now, on the Wuding River, there are all the navy of the Song people. Whether we are Daxia or Liao, we have always been good at water battles. We are invincible in the battles in the field, but when we reach the water, how can you fight with the navy of the Song Kingdom?"

"As long as the other party guards Wuding River, we can starve more than 100,000 soldiers and civilians to death in this Shizhou city."

Renduozong waved his hand weakly and said.

"Enough, let you come here today, not to let you argue about whether Shizhou should be defended. There is no need to discuss this issue anymore. I hope that you will appease the military and civilians of Shizhou in the coming days. When the time comes, I will be able to withdraw from Shizhou and move to Xingqing Prefecture."

"Sir, do we really have no way to think about it? If even Shizhou is lost, then my Daxia will be in this Hedong land, and there will be no more place to stand in the cone."

"I don't know that it's just that things have come to this point, and no matter how much you say, it's useless. After all, just relying on the troops in Shizhou, in this isolated situation, do you think you can still recover the already-fallen Longzhou and Yinzhou?"

"What's more, Longzhou and Yinzhou have become the spoils of the Song people. On the south bank of Wuding River, only this Shizhou is still in my hands in Daxia. Do you think the Song people will be stupid enough to sleep on the side of the bed, so that people can sleep soundly?"

"...Yes, Your Majesty, so the old minister thinks that the proposal of Lord Zhongshu Ling is the most appropriate plan at present. Shizhou is the most bargaining chip in my Daxia at present. As for other conditions, there is actually room for discussion, only Shizhou..."

"If Shizhou is not in the hands of the Song people, the Song people will not reach peace with me, Daxia."

Listening to Wei Ming Awu's analysis, Li Ganshun's haggard face had no expression at all. Only the flashing eyes from time to time seemed to bring a hint of vitality to the king of Xixia.

"...Your Majesty, Your Majesty! The old minister thinks that if my Daxia wants to calm Song Ting's anger, he can only offer Shizhou to go." Seeing this Majesty who is obviously already wandering around the sky, Wei Shi Awu was helpless, but these things need to be the highest decision-maker of the Daxia Kingdom to make an idea.

"Can you really protect the western part of Daxia by giving Shizhou?" Li Ganshun's eyes, who gradually returned to his soul, finally fell on Wei Ming Awu.

"Your Majesty, the old minister thinks that only in this way can the Song Kingdom, whose fangs are now exposed, stop the war. Let my Daxia win a breathing opportunity. What is important is that Shizhou is alone. Even if we do not agree, with the strength of Song Ting now, it can still be defeated by force."

"It would be better to regard Shizhou as a trump card for peace talks and ask Your Majesty for your kindness." Wei Ming Awu replied deeply and bowed to the ground.

"Since both you and Ren Duoqing think it is feasible, then do this, I am tired..." Li Ganshun nodded numbly and waved his hand weakly.

Wei Ming Awu slowly stepped out of the hall, while Li Ganshun was still sitting in the hall, like a mud carved wooden body, hidden deep in the shadow of the lamp.

Wei Ming Awu took a deep breath, raised his head, and looked at the clear night sky. The bright starry sky was still as bright as it was. However, the people of Daxia still have much safe time to enjoy such a beautiful night.

"It's just a drink to quench your thirst, but if you don't drink this glass of wine, Daxia, I'm afraid it'll fall down soon. If you can hold on for a while, maybe you will have a chance to recover..." Wei Ming Awu murmured to himself.

Zhu Guangting, who was at home, was keeping a low profile in the name of recuperation, never expected that he had just rested for only two or three days, and that guy Wang Yang actually came to provoke him again.

"Wang Wushan asked the deputy envoy of Xixia Gu Leguang to collect evidence of bribing me?!" Zhu Guangting felt that his heart almost stopped beating, and looked at the confidant entourage standing in front of him with a confused look on his face.

"Yes, I heard that this is the conditions for the negotiation he proposed... This was something that the villain had tried his best to find out, and he had already found several people to confirm, so there should be no mistake." The entourage wiped the sweat from his forehead and carefully observed Master Zhu in front of him.

"Why is Wang Yang and Wang Wushan doing? He wants to kill me?!" Zhu Guangting's eyes twitched, and he slapped the table hard, shouted sternly.
