Because Xiliao is fighting again!

Khwarezm, which was divided by the Seljuqs, has been fighting a civil war. The troublemaker Ajisi could not win, so he asked Xiliao to send troops to help, and promised to pay an annual tribute of 40,000 gold coins afterwards, increasing the tribute on the original basis.

Ten thousand.

In view of the fact that the Seljuks were eyeing him, Xiaota Buyan hated Ajisi very much, but he still suppressed his nausea and sent troops to help, in order to win over Khwarezm to fight against the Seljuks.

At the same time, Xiaota Buyan also adopted an adopted daughter as a princess, and formed an alliance with the Gejining Dynasty by marriage - the Liao Kingdom had already been married to Gejining, and the royal families of the two countries were still relatives.

Nowadays, the situation in Central Asia has changed again. Xiliao, Gejinin, and Khwarezm have formed an offensive and defensive alliance to jointly deal with the Seljuq Empire, which is on the verge of collapse.

The Ming Dynasty must be stabilized so that Xiliao can safely fight against threats from the west.

In fact, the current confrontation between the four major forces of Xiliao, Seljuk, Gejinin, and Khwarezm is just like novices pecking each other. All of them are suffering from internal and external troubles, and they will fall apart if they are not careful.

You have to bite the bullet and keep fighting.

It is very possible that while defeating the enemy, one's own internal conflicts will also completely explode...

Therefore, no one dared to take the initiative to attack with all their strength, and only repeatedly rubbed against small countries in the middle area. For example, Bukhara and Ghor in history will grow into regional hegemons in Central Asia in the future, but now they have become the center of war and were once again

Ravaged again.

"Go back and tell Xiaota that if you don't want to cede Ili, there will be no discussion," Zhu Ming said with a strong attitude. "If she is willing to cede Ili, the remaining details can be discussed. I will accept the gifts you brought. Ming Dynasty will give you a reward."

As a national gift, you can take it away after spring begins."

The envoy from Xiliao hesitated to speak, but finally said nothing more.

Because Xiliao did not have any capital to negotiate, continuing to negotiate was almost like begging, and would only make the Ming emperors and ministers look down upon him even more.

Alas, it would be great if the late emperor (Yelü Dashi) was still alive!
