But Kang Wang's words left Zhang Bangchang with some lingering fear. He never thought that Kang Wang, Zhao Zhuang, who had been in Da Jin Kingdom for four years, would be able to say such impassioned words, especially about the hostages mentioned by Zhao Zhuang, which made Zhang Bangchang stand in the cold water, thinking, "It's over, even if I succeed in negotiating with the Golden Man, I probably won't be able to get away from it. Kang Wang will definitely bring it up again when he returns to the imperial court."

While Zhang was talking to Zhao, Yeruma V came to inform Zhang that he was going to the Golden Head Commander's tent in Golden Ark, and that Golden Ark was going to discuss the peace talks with him. Zhang Bangchang straightened his clothes and said, "This general, the peace talks is about the general situation in the country, how can you let me go alone. With Duke Kang here, I must go with him.

"If the Fourth Wolf tells you to go, you must go!" Kang Wang looked at it and said indignantly, "How dare you!" The Prime Minister of one of the Great Song, how can you be so long-winded? "

When Jeluma saw that Zhao was getting angry, he said gently," Oh! Fourth Wolf Master has invited Master Zhang! " Everyone, why did Yelu Ma Wu's tone soften, because he had seen the power of Zhao Zhuzhe. Back then, he had denounced the competition from above the throne room of the Golden Kingdom, with his head held high and chest puffed up, righteously and righteously.

Seeing Yelu and Ma Wu's change in attitude, Zhao Zhuzhe took the opportunity to say, "Zhang Taizai, go and negotiate with His Royal Highness the 4th Prince. If this King comes forward, this King will definitely be there." Upon hearing King Kang's orders, Zhang Bangchang had to follow Yerushan Ma Wu to the Commander's Tent.

Upon entering the Commander's Lodge, Jin Jiuzhen said to Zhang Bangchang, "Zhang Bangchang, you can ask my Great Jin Nation to withdraw, but you must accept four conditions from me." "Your Highness, if you have come to negotiate the time for the peace talks, then this old man can come. If you are going to discuss the peace talks at this time, please forgive this old man for having a hard time listening to you!" Zhang Bangchang courageously said.

"Duo!" Zhang Bangchang, this king's two hundred and fifty thousand troops have already besieged the capital. You still dare to make any preconditions in this king's presence? "The Golden Vulture asked. Fourth Prince, please calm your anger! The peace talks are a big deal, how can Zhang Bangchang waste his power in private? " Zhang Bangchang explained.

The golden vulture glared at him and said, "Hmph!" This king wants you to tell Huizong and Qinzong that they want us to retreat, if they want us to do so, they can, but they must agree to four conditions of this king: Firstly, they must personally write a decree of surrender, take out the proper form, and bow down before them; secondly, we must move the capital five hundred miles north of the Yellow River, and the land north of the Yellow River must belong to my Great Golden Kingdom; thirdly, we must pay tribute of one hundred and twenty thousand taels of silver, fifty thousand kilograms of fine iron, two million silks, two thousand beauties, two hundred thousand silks, and two hundred thousand silks; fourthly, we must take five hundred thousand silver taels as compensation for the release of my Great Golden Kingdom. "

As soon as the golden vulture was done, Zhang Bangchang's forehead was covered in sweat and his heart was dripping with blood. How infuriating! "How is this a negotiation, this is simply trampling on people and even trampling on them four times, this is bullying me too much." Zhang Bangchang gritted his teeth and summoned up his courage, "Fourth Prince, please forgive this old man for not agreeing, but are these conditions any different from selling our country?" Hm! Zhang Bangchang, you still dare to say no in front of this duke. Take Zhang Bangchang and chop him off! " Jin Xu shouted in anger.

The Golden Soldier General replied. Without a second word, he tied up Zhang Bangchang and dragged him outside, causing him to struggle as he shouted, "Fourth Prince, I am the Great Sage of the Song Dynasty. I am the envoy of the Song Empire. Kang Wang … Kang Wang … Duke Kang, save me! "

Yeruma Wu led two soldiers to drag Zhang Bangchang onto the execution platform outside the tent. The sabre and axe hands came over and slowly tore off the red cloth on the ghost head blade. The big shiny blade swung in front of Zhang Bangchang's eyes, and at this moment, Zhang Bangchang's soul was in danger of not being able to turn into a fierce ghost and break out of the rope, tearing the sabre and axe hands into pieces.

But it was useless to hate him. Two soldiers came over and pinned him down in the wooden flail, the sabre and axe bearers spat on their hands and raised the sabre. Zhang Bangchang fainted and fainted, and when he woke up again, he was back at the Golden Head Supervisor's tent, his clothes were soaked from top to bottom, it was unknown whether it was sweat or urine, sweat or urine. He was sitting there like a puddle of snot when he heard Golden Vulture's voice asking, "Zhang Bangchang! Are you going to agree or not? If it was not for you just now, this king will definitely not forgive you! " Zhang Bangchang trembled, looked up at the Golden Vulture, and said with a sad face, "Thank you, Your Highness, for not killing me. Thank you, Military Advisor Ha. But, even if this old man said so, it doesn't count!"

The golden vulture said, "This King knows that what you say does not count! This king is asking you, can you tell these conditions to the two emperors when you go back? " Zhang Bangchang said helplessly, "I'll give it a try when I get back!" If we fail to succeed, this old man is powerless. "

"Alright! Go back together with King Kang, Zhao Zhuang, and tell the two emperors of Huiqin that if they do not agree with this king's conditions, the King of Japan will attack the city in the future. " The Golden Vulture threatened again.

When Zhang Bangchang returned to his room, Kang Wang and Zhao Zhuang were still there waiting for him. Seeing that Zhang Bangchang's body was soaked through, as well as the smell of pustules, they covered their noses and asked, "Master Zhang, how did you get into such a state by going to the Commander's Lodge?"

Zhang Bangchang said pitifully, "Kang Wang is a thousand years old, and this old official is less than a thousand years old. This old official does not dare to make decisions on his own regarding the negotiation terms set by the Golden Vulture Art. He wants to kill this old official and even drag him to the stables to humiliate himself, so …" "That's why …"

Zhang Bangchang was so scared that he peed his pants. He had to admit that it was the golden soldiers who had brought him to the stables to humiliate him, which was the only reason why he smelled so bad. Hearing that, Zhao Zhuzhe's Qi and blood began to boil. This King wants to find him for a reason! "

"Forget it!" For the sake of my safety in the Song Dynasty, it is alright for me to suffer a little humiliation. If I were to go a thousand years later and suffer such humiliation, this old official will die a thousand times! Now that the Golden Vulture has promised us to return to Bianjing, let's leave early! " He was afraid that if Zhao Zhuzhe went, he would anger the golden vulture and not only would he humiliate the King, but he would also vent his anger on himself. Therefore, he would not allow Zhao Zhuzhe to go no matter what.

Zhao Zhuzhe was deeply moved by the fact that Zhang Bangchang was still trying to protect him even under such circumstances, and when he heard that he could return to the capital, he finally fulfilled his long-awaited wish and half-heartedly followed Zhang Bangchang.

He knew that the Emperor would definitely return to the Diaoyu Palace, so he led Zhao Zhuang to the Diaoyu Palace to meet him. Zhao Zhuang then went to the Diaoyu Palace to meet the Emperor, and when Zhang Bangchang told him about the conditions set by the Golden Eel, the Old Emperor Zhao Qiyan almost fainted. Zhang Bangchang and Eunuch Feng hurriedly patted his chest, touched his back, and the Old Emperor finally woke up from his slumber and shouted, "Song is in danger! The Great Song passed away as well! "

The new emperor, Zhao Huan, was also scratching his head anxiously, unable to come up with any countermeasures. The humiliation he had suffered in the Golden Kingdom all these years was soon to come out, and it left the two emperors flabbergasted. In the end, Zhao Chengyan said, "Father, royal brother, in my opinion, we cannot agree to Golden Vulture's request, so we should send someone to request for reinforcements. Royal brother should immediately give the order and send Old Marshal Zongze back to the capital to take charge of the defense, risking his life to fight Golden Man. Only then can the Song Dynasty have a chance of survival!"

Zhao Ji did not expect his son to be so courageous and assertive. He looked at Zhao Huan and said, "My son, the King of Kang is sincere in defending the Great Song, and he has his own opinions. Just leave the imperial edict and return to the capital. How about you take charge of the capital's defense?" This son will announce the decree right now! " The new emperor, Zhao Huan, said.

Zhang Bangchang saw that Zhao Ji valued the kang kang very much, so he quickly said, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, although Kang Wang has been living in the Golden Kingdom for many years, he has never humiliated anyone. Long live, long live, long live, long live! "

While speaking, Zhao Huan had already drawn up an imperial edict, ordering the eunuchs to send someone to Zhang Xun's residence to request Zong Ze's help. After Zhang Xun received the imperial edict, he said to the eunuch, "Please report to His Majesty. This official has sent someone to ask Old Marshal Zong. If there is no mistake, Old Marshal Zong will arrive in the capital in a few days." When the eunuch returned, Zhao Ji, Zhao Huan, and Zhao Zhuzhe felt slightly more at ease.

Sure enough, before dawn the next day, the soldiers on the city wall heard the sound of drums and horns ringing in the Golden Soldier Battalion. From the east came a veteran general with a golden helmet and armor, holding a seven-star rigging (a type of spear and spear), followed by thousands of soldiers. The old general's seven star lifeline flashed with a cold light as he drew back the cold air. Killing the golden general, raising the fence, it was as if he had entered a land of no-man's. The golden general came forward to stop him, touching him with his hands, killing him instantly, he did not have much time left before the old general arrived at the east gate and shouted loudly, "This old man, Zongze, has come too! Quick, open the gates for me! "

The sharp-eyed general on the top of the city wall had already recognized the old marshal, so he quickly ordered his men to put down the suspension bridge and open the city gate. The three thousand men of the Zongze territory rushed into the city, and by the time Jin Jianli, who was guarding the east gate, had arrived, the suspension bridge was already raised high in the air.

The emperor, Zhao Ji, and the new emperor, Zhao Huan, saw Zong Ze as if he had seen his life saved. Before Zhao Huan could say anything, Zhao Shu said, "Aiya! "Honorable clan elder, you have finally returned to the capital. It seems like there is hope for you and the Gu Clan is safe!"

Zong Ze lifted his armor and kowtowed as he said, "It was too late for me to save you, Your Majesty. I request the Emperor and the Emperor to punish this old official for his crimes!" In fact, Zong Ze's words were meant for the new emperor, Zhao Huan, to say, "No matter what, your father didn't tell me to return to my homeland. How is it now?" Golden men besieged the capital, and it was me, Zongze, who came back to save you. Old and honest, can you still eat? I, Zong Ze, am the same. Even though I'm almost dilapidated, I can still draw my hundred and fifty stone bow.

When Zhao Ji saw that Zong Ze was wearing armor, he greeted him courteously and said to Zhao Huan, "My son, the Old Marshal is wearing armor. Help the Old Marshal up!" At this time, Zhao Ji really had the feeling that Liu Bei was throwing a kid away — buying a person's heart. Although Zhao Huan didn't agree, he still stood up from the dragon throne. Eunuch Feng, who was very tactful, quickly walked over in a hurry to help Fu Zongze.

How could Zong Ze allow the emperor to help him? He didn't even manage to touch Eunuch Feng's clothes as he swiftly stood up, bowed and said, "Thank you for your kindness, Emperor. How could I dare to be supported by the Emperor? Sigh! There are many close relations between the monarchs and officials, the ancient Zhou Wen Wang invited Jiang Shang to the Weihe River, Zhou Wu Wang helped Jiang Shang to tie the stirrups, so what's wrong with your son helping you? If it wasn't because of the age of the Gu family, I would definitely personally cheer for you. "

After hearing Zhao Ji's words, Zong Ze once again knelt down on the ground and kowtowed, "Your Majesty, your Majesty, please be at ease. As long as this old subject, Zong Ze, has three inches of Qi, I will not allow even half a step into the capital!" Aiyee! With the Sect's beloved daughter's words, the Gu family was relieved. May I ask what is your beloved daughter's plan? " Zhao Ji asked.

Zong Ze replied, "Your Majesty, Emperor, this time the metal soldiers are coming in aggressively and arrogantly. I ask Your Majesty to pass down an order for the city to stay behind and guard Zhang Xun to recruit the young and strong citizens to fill up the army. Some of the citizens who still have labor will carry weapons for the soldiers guarding the city and strengthen the city. "Tomorrow, when this old official goes to battle, he must kill all the golden soldiers, increase the morale of the Great Song Empire, and let the enemies know how hard it is to win, so as to not underestimate my Great Song, if we can hold on for one month in the capital, the golden soldiers will retreat, because after besieging our capital for one month, their food supplies will be very hard to sustain, and at that time, when the reinforcements from other places in the Great Song Empire arrive, we will definitely defeat the golden soldiers, and the imperial city will have no worries!"

Hearing Zong Ze's words, Zhao Ji and Zhao Huan laughed out loud, "Old Zong, as expected of the Great Song Dynasty's white jade pillar, you have defeated the Golden Soldiers, defeated the Golden Soldiers, and saved the lives of the capital. When the Golden Soldiers are defeated, the Lone Family will definitely bestow a seal on you!"

"Thank you, my lord!" However, Viva, Supreme Emperor, I heard that the Golden General Golden Vulture is a powerful martial artist and has great skills in governing armies, the only person that my Great Song Dynasty can match up to is probably Yue Fei, Yue Pengju. If the Emperor were to issue a decree or a decree for Yue Fei to enter the capital, he would be a resourceful and resourceful person who can assume the role of marshal in the defense against gold. Zong Ze kowtowed.

"This... Sigh! "My dear sir, after the golden soldiers have retreated, how about you and I start to come up with a plan for the future?" Zhao Ji said. Seeing that Zhao Ji still harbored a grudge against him, Zong Ze didn't say anything else. Fortunately, Zhao Ji had already relented, and seeing Yue Fei was only a matter of time, he thought that he had nothing else to say.
