Wanyan Wu Qimai looked at Lazy Agu's anxious look, and suddenly a plan came to his mind.

After a while, he happily left, went to the third camp, and ordered the undercover agents to prepare for the Tangkuo Central Plains in Guo Yaoshi's camp.

On the endless grassland on the Liaodong border, rows of military tents stand among them. Without sufficient food and grass, without cotton-padded clothes to keep out the cold, and with the continuous drizzle in recent days, the resentful soldiers suffered from the cold for days and had to set up stoves in their tents and light fires to keep warm.

Therefore, even in the drizzle and dark night, the lights appear brightly lit. Yelu Chun and Xiao Pu Xianhui ate and lived with the resentful soldiers, and also wore thin clothes to keep warm in the camp.

After a while, arrows fell from the sky like heavy rain. Dozens of guards in the Chinese army tent where Yelu Chun and Xiao Pu Xianhui were were hit by arrows and fell to the ground. Yelu Chun suddenly stood up and said loudly:

"No, there is a riot. Protect the princess quickly."

After saying that, dozens of guards surrounded Yelv Chun and Xiao Pu Xianhui to protect them. Wanyan Wu Qimai, who was disguised as Xiao Pu Xianhui's personal guard, followed Xiao Pu Xianhui closely, not daring to slack off at all. .

After a while, thousands of resentful soldiers rushed into the Chinese army's tent and started a fight with the guards in the Chinese army camp. One by one, the tents fell to the ground, piles of firewood caught fire, and the resentful soldiers died one by one. Tens of thousands of resentful soldiers gathered in the Chinese army's tent, trampling on each other, and suddenly flames shot into the sky.

The resentful soldiers in the other big tents were also on the alert. Once Wu Chaoyan of the fifth battalion succeeded, they immediately led their troops in and killed Yelu Chun and Xiao Pu Xianhui.

However, Guo Yaoshi, who got the news in time, stepped up his precautions. He rushed into the Chinese army camp with thousands of elite soldiers, bravely moved forward, and went straight to Yelv Chun and Xiao Pu Xianhui's camp to rescue them.

After learning that Guo Yaoshi had taken precautions, the other battalions had to respond and led their troops to support the Chinese camp and attack the fifth camp.

For a time, more than 100,000 resentful troops killed each other and blood flowed into rivers. Seeing that the incident was leaked, Wu Chaoyan wanted to die together with Yelu Chun, so he lit a torch, causing a fire in the Chinese army's camp.

Driven by the resentful soldiers who lit fires to keep warm, the fire grew bigger and bigger and gradually burned to other camps. After Wu Chaoyan and other rebels subsided, tens of thousands of resentful troops began to put out the fire. However, the fire was too strong and it was too late to put out the fire in the camp. They had to transfer food, grass and ordnance to reduce losses.

This mutual killing lasted for one day and one night, and the fire burned for three days and three nights.

After the fire was extinguished, Yelu Chun, who looked tired and angry, was indignant. The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. If Wu Chaoyan's body had not been burned to ashes by the fire, he would have whipped Wu Chaoyan's body three hundred times.

Xiao Pu Xianhui grabbed Yelu Chun's arm and kept beating his chest. If it weren't for Xiao Pu Xianhui's comfort and encouragement, he would have died in a fit of rage.

Wanyan Wu Qimai, who had disguised himself as Xiao Pu's virtuous bodyguard, looked at Yelu Chun's decadent face. Although he wanted to laugh, he naturally did not dare to laugh out loud in the camp of the Liao resentful army.

However, seeing Xiao Pu Xianhui's anxious and tired body, he felt heartbroken. He couldn't step forward to rub his shoulders and back for him, so he could only stand from a distance and watch him worry.

Half a day later, Pharmacist Guo led his guards to come forward to report, kneeling and said to the two of them:

"Your Majesty and Princess, after this internal strife, our Great Liao Resentment Army has lost more than half, and only has 150,000 combatable troops to dispatch. Fortunately, my subordinates responded in time, and the loss of food, grass and weapons is relatively small, and we can still supply it for the time being." .

"Hahaha, what a sin. I, Yelu Chun, had an army of 200,000 men who went into chaos before fighting and lost troops and generals. It is really a shame and a great humiliation."

After saying that, Yelu Chun became furious and vomited blood. Xiao Pu Xianhui, who was standing by him, immediately ordered the guards to help him back to the tent to rest.

Afterwards, Xiao Pu Xianhui said loudly to the soldiers:

"Soldiers, before Marshal Yelv Chun arrived in Liaodong, you were all resentful people who had no fixed place to live, no food to eat, and no clothes to wear. It was Grand Marshal Yelv Chun, and it was General Guo Yaoshi who asked you to join the Liao Dynasty. The army can solve your crisis."

"Now, Wu Chaoyan, the general of the fifth battalion, does not appreciate the kindness of the generalissimo, and is provoked by traitors. He wants to kill the generalissimo and me, Xiao Pu Xianhui, and let my two hundred thousand troops kill each other. They should be cut into pieces by a thousand cuts."

"Fortunately, General Guo Yaoshi arrived in time to stop the rebellion and quell the fire in the army, allowing us to regain our strength."

"Everyone, please rest assured. I have asked Xiao Qian, who is left behind in Nanjing, and my sister Xiao Puxiannu to collect food, grass and clothing in the city. They will be distributed to you soon to keep out the cold."

"However, after this rebellion, our great benefactor, the Living Bodhisattva, General Yelu, has been controversial and his reputation has been greatly damaged. To be honest, if you continue to be so slack and deceived by traitors, we will die without a burial The land is there."

After Xiao Pu finished speaking virtuously, Medicine Master Guo echoed:

"Brothers, it was Generalissimo Yelv Chun and Princess Xiao Pu who virtuously gave us a way to survive. We only follow their lead and the Generalissimo is mighty."

After Pharmacist Guo finished speaking, tens of thousands of resentful soldiers knelt down and shouted about the authority of the Generalissimo.

Wanyan Wu Qimai stood among thousands of people, looking at Xiao Pu, who was aloof and virtuous, as if she were seeing an arrogant empress, she felt the admiration of thousands of people.

Guo Yaoshi and other generals were also impressed by Xiao Pu's virtuous ability. After she finished speaking, everyone immediately knelt down and watched her leave in a high profile.

After this change, Yelv Chun suddenly looked much older and no longer had the same air as before. He was alone in his tent meditating, and even his beloved concubine Xiao Pu Xianhui was not allowed to disturb him. Suddenly, his guards came to report.

"Your Majesty, Sir Zhang Lin is here and waiting in the main tent."

"I understand. You go and call the princess and General Guo Yaoshi, and we will meet Zhang Xiangguo together."

After a while, Yelu Chun, Xiao Pu Xianhui, and Guo Yaoshi went to the main tent to pay homage to Left Prime Minister Zhang Lin. After seeing Zhang Lin, Yelu Chun regained his spirit and said with a laugh:

"Zhang Xiangguo has come all the way, and Xiao Wang is not welcome from afar. Please forgive me."

After Yelu Chun finished speaking, Xiao Pu Xianhui continued:

"My concubine, Xiao Pu, is a virtuous person and pays homage to Mr. Zuo Xiang. May you be blessed."

Pharmacist Guo also knelt down quickly and said:

"The last general, Pharmacist Guo, will meet the Prime Minister of the Left, and I will be blessed to the Prime Minister of the Left."

"Hahaha, you don't have to be polite. It's just that your Majesty, the court heard that the 280,000 resentful troops in your Majesty's camp were in chaos before fighting, and they lost their troops and generals, which was detrimental to the state of the Liao Dynasty. Therefore, the civil and military ministers accused the King one after another, saying that you have no control over the army. Fang, there are so many complaints.”

"Alas, Sir Zuo Xiang, after this incident, my reputation, Yelu Chun, has indeed been discredited. But there is no ever-victorious general in the world. Otherwise, how could half of my country in Daliao fall into the hands of the Jurchens?"

"Yes, Mr. Zuo Xiang, haven't you also been defeated by the Jin army twice? As the saying goes, victory or defeat is a matter of military strategism. What's more, my king stopped the civil strife in time. Now the morale of the 150,000-strong resentful army has been stabilized and can be ready at any time. Respond to the challenge. Therefore, this chaos is just a minor chaos and does not harm the overall situation."

"Yes, yes, Princess Side is right. The emperor is worried about the impact on the frontline soldiers and the king, so he sent me to comfort him. One hundred thousand loads of grain and grass have been delivered. Please check it."

Seeing that Yelu Chun and everyone around him no longer looked down upon him, Zhang Lin pondered for a moment and then continued:

"Your Majesty, Princess, although the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty have criticized you, and your reputation has been affected, your Majesty still believes in your Majesty and believes that your Majesty can assist you in supporting the country. You can prepare for war with peace of mind. I, Zhang Lin, will also mediate and assist you. The king’s”.

"Hahaha, Mr. Zuo Xiang is interested, then I, Yelu Chun, will thank Mr. Zuo Xiang on behalf of the 150,000 resentful troops."

After Yelu Chun finished speaking, he glanced at Xiao Pu Xianhui and Yaoshi Guo, and then continued:

"General Guo, I think the inspection is unnecessary. Please send someone quickly to take over the food and grass brought by Mr. Zuo."

After saying that, Medicine Master Guo took the order and went forward. After chatting for a while, Zhang Lin and others left.

After Zhang Lin left, Yelu Chun continued to vomit blood in the tent. He cursed the Liao Dynasty for adding insult to injury, and vowed to attack Huining, capture Wanyan Aguda alive, and destroy his Kingdom of Jin.
