He Heilu died, but when he died, he told the Song Dynasty monarchs and ministers something, and a new round of Khitan rebellion began.
The eight Khitan tribes formed a tribal alliance in the early Tang Dynasty. In the early days, all the leaders of the alliance were elected among the Dahe nobles.
In the Tang Dynasty, the Dahe clan led the eight Khitan tribes to jump repeatedly between the Turks and the Tang Dynasty, constantly seeking death. In the end, Dahe succeeded in committing suicide.
In the eighteenth year of Kaiyuan, there was civil strife in the Dahe Alliance. The military leader Ke suddenly killed Li Shaogu, and the leader of the Yuanan clan, Yuanan Qulie, was listed as the leader of the alliance.
Hende Khan, the last leader of the Yaonian clan, felt that the Tang Dynasty was over, the vassals and towns were divided, and his Khitan tribal alliance was in ruins. So he began his journey of seeking death again. After annexing a group of small tribes around him, Hende Khan expanded.
He began to attack You, Ji and other places. As a result, he was attacked by Liu Rengong, the governor of Youzhou, and his pastureland was burned. He was forced to ask Tang Xianma for an alliance, and then returned to the Khitan Eight Tribes Alliance. Everyone felt that Hende The Khan was still pretty good, but he was just unlucky, and the Haruno clan had always been the Khan. Everyone was used to it, so there was no substitution.
After being sent back, Hende Khan felt that there was something wrong with the direction of his attack, so he immediately betrayed the alliance and went south, sending Abo (brother of Yelu Abaoji's wife) to attack Yuguan with ten thousand horses. Liu Rengong's son Liu Shouguang taught him how to behave in Pingzhou. After being captured alive, Hende Khan immediately gave up and spent a large sum of gold, silver and jewels to redeem himself.
Then, there was no more, Hende Khan died. In the first month of the second year, Yelu Abaoji proclaimed himself emperor, and the Yaonan clan's empire was gone.
When Yelu Abaoji established the Liao Kingdom, he felt that Han emperors all gave the throne to their sons. He thought this method was very good and hoped to copy this theory.
In fact, it doesn't matter if you explain it clearly. Is it the inheritance of father and son? The problem is that the Khitans originally had a political system, which was the world election system. The so-called World Selection is to select a khan of the whole clan from among the tribal leaders every three years. This is how the Oga clan plays it, and the same thing is done by the Haruka clan. Although only one clan can play it, it is still the same. Recommend it.
But if Yelu Abaoji wants to play the hereditary system inherited from father to son, it will not be fun. It means that autocracy is about to replace democracy. From now on, everyone has to listen to Yelu Abaoji and his descendants. So the leaders of the Khitan tribe disagree.
But before the other tribes took action, several younger brothers of Yelu Abaoji rebelled. The rebellion was quickly suppressed by Abaoji, and several younger brothers were forced to surrender. Abaoji forgave his brothers and hoped to live a happy life hand in hand with his brothers from now on.
A year later, the brothers rebelled again. Abaoji took great pains and this time sent his trusted brother Lage to quell the rebellion. La Ge performed well and successfully attacked Pingzhou. Then...he actually took his brothers and threatened to fight back, forcing Abaoji to change to the reincarnation selection system.
When Abaoji saw something was wrong, he said that he could re-elect, that was no problem, and then went directly back to hold the Khan re-election ceremony. However, none of his brothers were there at the time, and Abaoji was successfully elected as the only candidate. It seemed that his younger brothers could still play like this, but they had let the word out before. As long as the Khan was re-elected, no matter who was elected, they would accept it. This word had spread throughout the grassland. What else could they do? He spit on a nail, knocked out his teeth and swallowed blood. He had no choice but to grit his teeth and admit it.
Half a year later, the brothers rebelled again, this time directly electing La Ge as the new Khan.
This damn thing is not over yet. Yelu Abaoji couldn't bear it anymore and personally led his troops to quell the rebellion and attack Lage.
La Ge was not a vegetarian, and instead rushed to Abaoji's base camp. To say that the nomads are good, the two armies passed each other and were defeated like this, which was equivalent to a defense-changing military exercise. Fortunately, Abaoji's wife Shuluping was also good at fighting, and she even insisted on beating Abaoji and returned to the army for rescue.
Later, Abaoji gathered his troops and defeated La Ge. In the end, La Ge was captured alive by Abaoji, and the younger brothers finally finished their torment.
After the younger brothers finished their troubles, the tribal chiefs started to make troubles again. Yelu Abaoji got annoyed and said that I don't want to play anymore, I don't want my territory anymore, I want to move south.
Of course, he did not give in when he moved south, but he discovered a salt mine. This was amazing. Whoever had salt on the grassland could feed the grassland bags of salt. For this salt, the chiefs of each tribe brought The good wine and meat went to Abaoji's territory. Abaoji kept doing nothing, got all these people drunk and killed them, and finally he could sit back and relax.
It is a pity that there are still people in the entire Liao Kingdom who use the Shixuan system as an excuse to rebel. The Liao Kingdom can only continue to fight the Northern Song Dynasty by passing on conflicts.
Now the Tanyuan Alliance has been established. The war with the Northern Song Dynasty stopped, and the various princes and tribal chiefs of the Liao Kingdom decided that we should play another wave of world selection now.
So a new wave of rebellion began.
The four-season Nabo system, the so-called "spring water and autumn mountains, winter and summer Nabo", is one of the ways of stabilizing the political power of the Liao Dynasty. Before Yelu Longxu came to the throne, the location of the four-season Nabo was uncertain, but now the four-season Nabo system The fixed points of the bowl are all fixed, and Dongnabo is located in Guangpingdian, 30 miles southeast of Yongzhou, more than 20 miles from east to west, and more than 10 miles from north to south. The land is very flat, with sand in all directions and many elm and willow trees. This kind of terrain, It can avoid being ambushed, but it can also facilitate cavalry raids.
At the time of Nabo at four o'clock, the Lord of Liao was accompanied by the guards of the Pishi Army and the Prince of Marquis. The Pishi Army was the emperor's confidant bodyguard. Both of them were mainly descendants of the Khitan nobles, as well as the nobles of Xi, Han, Bohai, and Pingguan. . Guarding focuses on protecting safety, but also emphasizes guarding ability, which requires higher physical fitness and skills. The chief minister, the chief minister, was responsible for the daily life of the emperor's palace and the execution of relevant official duties. In a state of emergency, he naturally also assumes the responsibility of guarding.
The rebels this time were the Khitan nobles headed by the Yishibu. They contacted the Jurchen Shengfan and the tribes on the grassland, who made trouble every year, and prepared to make a big move.
The Yishi tribe, we and the Diela tribe come from the same clan as the Yaonan clan. Now the Yelv clan does not recognize us as the same clan, so we want to kill them. The Khitan nobles said that after the Tanyuan Alliance was established, they could not go south, and the tribe began to weaken. , All supplies must be taken from the hands of the Yelv family, which is uncomfortable. The Jurchensheng said, anyway, there will be trouble every year, so let's make trouble with you this year. The tribes on the grassland expressed that they can come to Daliao to grab a wave, and we are also very happy.
And these people became the main force of the rebellion. The Jurchen Shengfan started to make trouble as usual, transferred a large number of garrison troops from the north, and began to engage in a large-scale wild hide-and-seek with the Liao garrison for several years. The number of people on both sides was as high as hundreds of thousands.
The tribesmen in the grasslands plundered the Liao Kingdom and held back the Liao Kingdom's cavalry on the grasslands.
The Yishi tribe quietly stationed its troops and horses 20 miles away from Guangpingdian, ready to attack at any time, and the Khitan nobles also prepared their cronies and were ready to attack at any time.
Although He Heilu started to kill Yelu Angkor in Kaifeng, others still did not dare to do it, but they were all waiting.
When the woman who had served as regent for 27 years breathed her last, even though the woman had her last breath left, they were still afraid.
