Therefore, unlike his grandson who proclaimed himself emperor a year after launching his rebellion, he finally decided to proclaim himself emperor and establish a country six years after launching his rebellion.
Wugunai continued, "Furthermore, after the founding of the country, I will immediately send envoys to the Song Kingdom to pay tribute and explain to the Emperor of the Great Song why we resisted the Liao Dynasty and why we founded the country. I hope that the Emperor of the Great Song will confer titles on us. This way, everything will be safe."
"Your Majesty is truly wise and powerful, with extraordinary strategy. You have come up with a foolproof plan. Shi Xi admires you and is willing to support you in establishing a country and becoming emperor."
Wulindashi was happy to see that Ugunai had thought it through, so he stopped objecting.
"good."
Wugunai then said, "Liao named itself Bintie because of its strength. Although Bintie is strong, it will eventually deteriorate, but gold is indestructible. Gold is white, and the Wanyan tribe prefers white. We can name our country 'Dajin'!"
"Dajin!"
"Dajin!"
"Dajin!"
Many tribal leaders immediately raised their right hands and cheered.
At that moment, Ugunai did not hesitate.
A few days later, all the troops retreated back to Huanglongfu, established a country in Huanglong City and proclaimed themselves emperor, naming the country Dajin.
Then Ugunai rewarded each tribe and took nine women from the most powerful tribes as his concubines, calling them the Golden Nine Queens.
At the same time, he sent envoys to the State of Song to pay tribute, hoping to be enthroned by the Song Dynasty.

The Liao Dynasty was now in decline. The Mongols in the western Mongolian grasslands were constantly rebelling, and they were no longer able to control them.
The Jurchens in the east established their own country and proclaimed themselves emperors. The entire Liao Dynasty was left with only the territories of Xilinguole League, Chifeng, Tongliao and Baicheng in Inner Mongolia. It was on the verge of extinction.
Seeing that he might become the last emperor of Liao, Yelu Chongyuan, regardless of the long-standing feud between Liao and Song, immediately wrote a letter and sent his confidant to the Song Dynasty in the hope of getting help.
It was under such circumstances that in October of the 13th year of the Qingli period of the Song Dynasty, envoys from the Liao and Jin Kingdoms arrived in Bianliang. One asked for help from the Song Dynasty, while the other hoped that the Song Dynasty would accept them, become a vassal state of the Song Dynasty, and not interfere in the Liao-Jin War.
On October 6, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs met with the envoys of the two countries in the Constitutional Council and handed the issue over to the Constitutional Council.
After Zhao Jun finished reading the two envoys' requests, he tossed the documents onto the table and chuckled, "Let's proceed as planned. Once the Liao Kingdom is destroyed, we'll march north and destroy the Jin Kingdom as well. There's a saying about sitting on a mountain and watching tigers fight.
