The Northern Song Dynasty and the Liao State, the Song Dynasty was a very prosperous and powerful country, but unfortunately their military strength was not strong, and they were forced to sign this alliance.

Between the Northern Song Dynasty and the Liao State, the two countries united to occupy some places, and the development of both countries was relatively stable.

The "Alliance of the Yuan" was an equal treaty signed between the Northern Song Dynasty and the Liao State. Under the constraints of this treaty, the perennial conquest ended, and they exchanged with each other.

The Northern Song Dynasty and the Liao Dynasty made a peace treaty at Lanyuan.

In 1004, the Liao army marched south to attack the Song Dynasty and forced the Song capital Bianjing (now Kaifeng, Henan). Kou Zhun, the prime minister of the Song Dynasty, resisted, and the army and civilians fought bravely to resist the enemy, shooting Liao Shuai to death in Lanzhou (now Puyang, Henan) and defeating the Liao army.

Liao proposed peace. Zhao Heng of Song Zhenzong was anxious to sue for peace, and under the pretext of "bending himself and reassuring the people", he signed a peace treaty with Liao in Lanzhou, giving Liao 100,000 taels of silver and 200,000 horses of silk every year. Because Lanzhou is also known as Lanyuan County, it is known as the League of Lanyuan in history.

Origin: The alliance between the Northern Song Dynasty and the Liao State was an alliance concluded after twenty-five years of war. In the autumn of 1004 AD, the Empress Dowager Xiao of Liao and Liao Shengzong personally led a large army south into the Song realm, Song Zhenzong wanted to flee south, because of the persuasion of the prime minister Kou Zhun, he went to Lanzhou to supervise the war.

The Song army held on to the town behind the Liao army, and shot the Liao general Xiao Tzulan with a crossbow from the eight tours under the city of Shanzhou. Later, the two sides negotiated peace and negotiated a peace treaty, which was known as the alliance of the abyss.

The positive impact of the Abyss Alliance:

1. The 25-year-long war between Song and Liao ended after that, and the Song-Liao border was in a state of relative peace for a long time.

2. The Song Dynasty saved huge war expenses, avoided the excessive conscription and tax pressure caused by the heavy army fighting the border for many years, and exchanged the effect of war for a very small price.

3. It promoted the economic and cultural exchanges between Song and Liao, and was conducive to the economic development, cultural prosperity and ethnic integration of the Chinese nation.

Evaluation of the Abyss Alliance:

The alliance brought economic and cultural benefits and the peace and stability of the people's lives, as well as the favorable support for the internal construction of the entire country and the exchange and expansion of foreign countries. And its flaw is that the 300,000-year-old coin of the divine argument has created economic benefits for Song that far exceed 300,000. In general, the evaluation of the alliance itself is more beneficial than disadvantageous.

The Abyss Alliance is a controversial proposition. How to evaluate it correctly and objectively, it is necessary to conduct an all-round analysis of the Song and Liao sides of the Lanyuan Alliance. In fact, the alliance was a manifestation of the balance of power between the Song and Liao sides, and it had a positive impact on both Song and Liao countries.

Whether we look at it from the perspective of big history or the big nation, there is something worth affirming. The alliance is a controversial proposition in Chinese history. There have long been two diametrically opposed views.

Affirmers believe that although it was a humiliating treaty, after its signing, a relatively stable and peaceful environment emerged in the northern region, which communicated the political, economic, and cultural exchanges between the Song and Liao dynasties, and brought closer friendly exchanges between the people of all nationalities. Those who deny it believe that the signing of the alliance not only recognized the existence of the Liao regime, but also opened up the "year coin" indiscriminately, and the weakness of the two Song Dynasty in the future made the situation of the Song Dynasty deteriorate day by day. In order to objectively and correctly evaluate the alliance between Song and Liao, it is necessary to examine the historical situation and development trend of the Song and Liao sides before the signing of the alliance, as well as the impact on the Song and Liao countries after the signing of the alliance.
