In the second year of Tianqing (1112), Yelu Yanxi, who was still Emperor Tianzuo at the time, went to "Chun Na Bo" to hook fish, held a fish feast, and met with the leaders of various ethnic groups.
During this period, Emperor Tianzuo's frivolous habit broke out and he sent an order to the leaders to perform dances. Aguda refused to obey and was almost killed, so he rebelled.
Two years later, Aguda officially launched his army. After eight years of fierce fighting, he was invincible and invincible. He carved a bloody word "fear" into the hearts of the Liao people.
Even the Jurchens themselves may not know how deep and painful the word "fear" is.
But King Yelu Yanxi of Yunzhou knew it!
He knows best!
What about Yelu Chun, what Xiao Qian, what Yelu Dashi, among all the famous kings and generals, who among them is not a wandering ghost who was lucky enough to survive under the sword of the Jurchens?
Therefore, Yelu Yanxi proposed a plan, and the name of the plan was: Frighten me!
First, they used a group of bandits to feign an attack to show their arrogance, and then the Jurchens suddenly burst out, awakening the profound word "fear" in one fell swoop. Sure enough, they succeeded in one fell swoop and defeated the fortified city in an instant.
Not long after, the city gate opened.
Yelu Yanxi's eyes were filled with gleaming eyes, and she clasped her fist at Lou Shi: "Marshal, wait until the little king captures the traitor and presents it in front of the tent!"
This guy only loves hunting all his life. It may be difficult for him to govern the country. But when it comes to military force, he actually has something to boast about.
But I saw him, wearing gold chainmail, carrying a steel gun with red tassels, and a cloak made of pure white fox fur, fluttering in the wind. Under his crotch was a yellow dragon horse that traveled thousands of miles a day, with a sun-shooting bow on the left and a phoenix feather on the right. The arrow carries majesty!
They rushed into Zhengzhou first, shouting loudly: "Yelu Chun, the dog thief, come and die quickly!"
Lou Shi laughed when he saw it, pointed at his back, and said with a smile to those around him: "This person, King Yunzhou, is quite similar to the empress of the Shu Han Dynasty. If your majesty has murderous intentions in the future, I will intercede for him."
But it was said that Xicheng was destroyed in an instant, and Xu Wei, the "Void Sun Rat", escaped in a hurry and reported to Yelu Dashi.
Yelu Dashi was a man who made quick decisions. As soon as he heard the word "Jurchen", he knew that the situation was unstoppable and was not willing to fight. He immediately went to pick up Yelu Chun, opened the east gate and ran out, and met the surrendered general Yelu Foding.
This person, Yelu Foding, once served in the Dalin Yayuan with Yelu Dashi, and also had the title of Linya. He also served under Yelu Chun. The two were old colleagues, and both were known for their civil and military skills.
When the two met, Yelv Buddha raised his gun and said, "Where do you want to go in the big stone forest?"
Yelu Dashi said angrily: "Buddha Lin Ya, you are also a son of the Yelu family. It is a shame to pay gold. Are you still trying to embarrass an old friend?"
Yelv Buddha's face suddenly turned red and he shouted: "Your Majesty, please surrender, what can I do?"
Yelu Dashi pointed back and said sternly: "Your Majesty is here!"
Yelu Chun stepped out of his horse and said with a wry smile: "Buddha Ding, do you want to exchange my head for wealth?"
Yelv Buddha felt the war between heaven and man in his heart, and finally gritted his teeth and led the horse away: "That's it, you go quickly..."
Yelu Chun and Dashi looked at each other, but did not move. Yelu Chun pointed to the surroundings and smiled: "Countless people have seen you let me go, how can the golden dog let you live? Just follow me, even if you are no longer able to defeat the golden dog, We all died in a fierce battle without losing our heroism, and under the Nine Springs, we can also see the faces of the late emperors of the Liao Dynasty."
The Buddha's Ding of Yelu let out a long sigh, looked back and shouted: "Brothers, the Buddha's Ding is still alive today! If you are willing to go, please follow me. If you don't want to go, don't make it difficult."
After saying that, he came to Yelu Dashi's side and ran with them towards Bianjing. The soldiers and horses under his command looked at me and I looked at you. Most of them stood still, only hundreds of people followed and fled.
Yelu Yanxi City searched for Yelu Chun but could not find him. When he learned that Foding had released him, he was very angry and ordered Yelu Xinilie and Yelu Mawu to lead troops and tie up more than 2,000 people under Foding's command who did not follow him. I want to ask Lou Shi to order his beheading.
Lou Shi came over and learned about this. He saw the bound soldiers crying loudly and sighed: "Why is this happening?"
Then he ordered them to be released.
When the news spread, tens of thousands of surrendered troops felt chilled and became more and more willing to surrender to the Jin people.
The Liao army fled in a hurry, and all the grain, grass and ordnance in Zhengzhou City were obtained by the Jin soldiers.
The Lou family ordered a large reward to the three armies, rested for a day, and headed to Bianjing for a decisive battle with the Liao army.
Kui Xiangyang and Li Zhu gave instructions, said goodbye to Lou Shi, and rushed to Bianjing alone.
The city of Bianjing was vast and there were tens of thousands of Liao soldiers and horses, so naturally they could not be surrounded. Kui Xiangyang easily entered the city and rushed to the navy ship to meet the officials.
In the days since he left, Liao soldiers attacked the city several times. Although they never broke through, the officials were inevitably shocked three times a day.
Now that I saw Kui Xiangyang returning, I couldn't help but be overjoyed, and regardless of my dignity, I rushed over and grabbed Kui Xiangyang's hands: "My dear, will the golden soldiers come to save me?"
Kui Xiangyang said: "Fortunately, I have fulfilled my mission. I said that the Jin people came to help. Today, Zhengzhou has been conquered. If Yelu Chun hadn't walked quickly, he would have been captured. We will send troops to relieve the siege in the future."
The official said happily: "Are the soldiers and horses of the Jin Kingdom really so good at fighting?"
Kui Xiangyang frowned and nodded first: "I dare not lie to Your Majesty. More than 100,000 soldiers and horses have arrived. More than 60,000 are strong men recruited from the Taihang Mountains. There are only 40,000 Jin soldiers, and 30,000 of them are surrendered by the Liao Kingdom." Army. Judging from his fighting ability, he is just like Yelu Chun and other Liao soldiers."
The official was stunned for a moment, then he forced a smile and said: "Ten thousand is enough for me, why don't you hear: Jurchens are absolutely invincible!"
Kui Xiangyang smiled bitterly and said: "Of those ten thousand, most of them are Han'er, Bohai and other ethnic groups in the North. There are only three thousand real Jurchens."
The official's face turned pale: "Only three thousand? How, how come it's so little?"
Kui Xiangyang sighed: "If I had never gone through this experience, I would never have imagined that this situation would be like this - Your Majesty, do you remember Wu Zhi, the governor of Qingzhou? This man was so ambitious that he sent troops without authorization and occupied the Sixteenth Prefecture of Youyun. , Marshal Loushi of Jin Kingdom, but he blocked the way back..."
Saying one, five and ten, he told Lou Shi and others what they had told him.
The officials were all dumbfounded, and after a while they said: "How can this person... be so powerful? The golden soldiers killed tens of thousands of people in one battle against him?"
Kui Xiangyang nodded: "Wanyan Lou's son, Wanyan Huonv, and Wanyan Zongxiong, the nephew of the Emperor of Jin Kingdom, all died in this battle!"
"Ouch!" Zhao Guanjia suddenly slapped his thigh: "Xiang Yang, you, you are confused!"
Kui Xiangyang showed a confused expression: "?"
Zhao Guanjia shook his head repeatedly and whispered: "The Western Army led by Tong Guan cannot defeat the Liao Army, can it?"
"The Liao army was beaten so hard by the Jin soldiers, wasn't it?"
"The Jin soldiers are so powerful that they can kill tens of thousands in one battle and hide in an isolated city unable to move, right?"
Kui Xiangyang vaguely guessed what this official meant.
As expected, the official slapped his thigh again: "You are confused! Since you know that Wu Zhi is good at fighting, you should lead the soldiers of Yanmen Pass and join forces with Wu Zhi to kill this Ganjin man, and then ask Wu Zhi to come back for reinforcements. This is a big deal It is certain that the sixteen states of Yanyun will return to our Song Dynasty!"
At the end of the speech, I was ecstatic and dancing.
Kui Xiangyang said in surprise: "Your Majesty, the Kingdom of Jin is an ally..."
"What an ally!" Zhao Guanjia clapped his legs, straightened his back, and showed a wise and mighty attitude, with a stern look on his face: "Huh, don't you think I have something in mind? The old gentleman wants to defeat the Liao Kingdom, it's the Jin soldiers. Come and kill, ruining a good thing! By acting like this, does he think that I am an ally in his heart?"
"You must know!" The official looked at Kui Xiangyang with eyes full of hatred: "My move is called driving the tiger to swallow the wolf! Do you know what it means to drive the tiger to swallow the wolf? Tiger! Wolf! These are all cannibals. !”
"Tong Guan was defeated in Hebei, Laozhong was defeated in Yanmen, and Xixia is eyeing the enemy. If I have good generals available, why would I ask the Jin people to rule the Liao Dynasty? Xiangyang, you have missed me!"
Zhao Guanjia shook his head repeatedly and sighed.
Kui Xiangyang blinked and looked dumbfounded: "Your Majesty, haven't you noticed yet? This Wu Zhi has rebellious intentions! The foundation of the Jin people is the Northern Kingdom. Now that the Liao Kingdom has not been completely destroyed, how can you look at my country? Your Majesty, If Wu Zhi wants to take action, he will send troops from Shandong and reach Bianliang in a few days!"
Zhao Guanjia was shocked and waved his hands: "Nonsense, how could it be possible? Xiangyang, you don't know something. Wu Zhi is Tong Guan's favorite general. In the past, he was able to defeat Wang Qing and destroy Tian Hu. , He is a loyal minister and good general."
Kui Xiangyang said helplessly: "Your Majesty, you might as well call the Tong Xiang here and you will know after asking."
Seeing that he was sure, Zhao Guan's family couldn't help but be confused, and quickly sent someone to summon Tong Guan to see him.
Not long after, Tong Guan arrived. After listening to Kui Xiangyang's story about his past relationship, he fell to his knees and cried loudly: "Your Majesty! Your Majesty! I am guilty. I misunderstood the traitor!"
The official was shocked and asked quickly: "I love you, don't be sad. Tell me in detail the cause and effect."
Tong Guan said: "Your Majesty, I have never suffered a major defeat in my entire life. How could I be defeated in Hebei?"
The official blinked in confusion: "Isn't it because Wang Huan and Zhang Kai were incompetent in leading the army, and the Hebei Forbidden Army was unable to fight, and counterattacked and defeated the Western Army, leading to a great rout?"
Tong Guan was slightly startled: Oops! After all, I am old. How could I forget the lies I told back then?
Fortunately, he reacted quickly and said quickly: "Wang Huan and Zhang Kai are inherently wrong. In fact, the real connection is not between the two of them. But now that the situation has deteriorated, the veteran is too embarrassed to say anything lightly, lest the guy knows about it. , without fear, will truly bring chaos to the world."
The official said anxiously: "How can you bring trouble to the world? Tong Daofu, how much are you hiding from me? Tell me quickly!"
Tong Guan covered his face and pretended to cry, rolled his eyes behind his sleeves a few times, and after repairing his abdominal manuscript, he said sadly: "Your Majesty, Wu Zhi has a younger brother named Wu Song Wu Erlang. This person is credited with killing Tian Hu. He is a military commander in Gaotang Province..."
He cried and explained in detail how Wu Song rescued Chai Jin, how he beat him, and how he caused the Shandong generals to run away with their troops——
"Chai Jin is a remnant of the previous dynasty. He was blessed by heaven and blessed his family with eternal wealth. However, he secretly harbored ambitions and plotted to kill soldiers. He used the Liao people to invade and wanted to win over the people. In Cangzhou, only Chai Jin was known. A high-ranking official doesn’t know the Emperor of Song Dynasty!”
"This man is more harmful than the Liao Dynasty. I wanted to deal with him, but he was rescued by Wu Song. In the states of Shandong, Chen Bing followed, and his intentions were unpredictable. Your Majesty, I was in a situation where I was facing enemies on both sides. The morale and morale of the army were all at a loss. Affected, otherwise, relying on the veteran's ability, the Hebei Forbidden Army would be unable to fight, how could it be defeated by the Liao people?"
"However, the Liao people came to kill fiercely. Although the old minister knew that Wu Zhi had colluded with the Chai family and had evil intentions, he did not dare to mention it easily. Otherwise, he would find out his mind and start a rebellion. The whole area of Huaibei, Shandong, would immediately be no longer owned by the state. !”
"Your Majesty, I am dedicated to serving the country. Who can see this grievance?"
After that, he fell to the ground and cried loudly.
The official's mind was buzzing: "Are you saying that after Wu Zhi gained military power, he became ambitious, colluded with the descendants of the previous dynasty, and had evil intentions?"
"Exactly!"
"Then..." The official shook his head and asked in confusion: "How did he escape to Jiuzhou behind the mountain?"
"This..." Tong Guan hesitated. He only found out today that Lao Cao had gone to the Liao Kingdom. How could he organize it all at once?
"Your Majesty!" Kui Xiangyang's eyes lit up: "I know this, Wu Zhi, colluded with Chai Jin, I'm afraid he wants more than just obeying the dragon, but wants to divide the world equally! Chai Jin, take the title of Song Dynasty from me We will restore the Zhou Kingdom, and Wu Zhi will take the land of the Liao Kingdom and establish our own country!"
"Yes, yes, yes!" Tong Guanyi stood up and nodded repeatedly: "What Commander Kui said is so shocking! Your Majesty, it is really a big game of chess. Even the old minister only said that he wanted to help the Chai family establish the country in Shandong. It turns out that he I am not willing to be alone! Now we understand that he took advantage of the melee between Song and Liao to gather the Chai family, divide the territories of the two countries equally, and then deal with the Jin Kingdom together - no wonder, no wonder he became the envoy and dared to offend the Jin Emperor like that!"
bright! white! Got it!
In an instant, Zhao Guanjia thought everything through and slapped his already red thigh again -
"Oh, my three kingdoms have been fighting endlessly for a long time, and the common enemy turned out to be him, Wu Zhiwu Dalang!"
Tong Guan and Kui Xiangyang slapped their thighs together: "Your Majesty is wise!"
Zhao Guanjia felt refreshed, and he just said to himself, I am indeed wise, powerful and ambitious, and have planned such a big situation. If I hadn't seen through his vicious plan, wouldn't it be that all the three countries would have made wedding clothes for him!
It was okay not to know before, but now that I know, countless clever ideas suddenly come up.
He immediately said: "In that case, Xiangyang, go and send an envoy to the Liao camp for me and tell Yelu Chun that I will cede Shandong and Hebei to him and let him rebuild the Liao Kingdom. The two countries will still form an alliance! Hum, Wu Could it be that I don’t know how to lay out the plans of the Zhihui? I will leave this place and let the Liao people destroy Wuzhi until the two families are exhausted, Tong Aiqing!”
Tong Guan was full of energy: "Old minister is here!"
"You then take command to turn the tide, wipe out the remaining gangs of his two families for me, and take over Shandong and Hebei as they are."
"Your Majesty is brilliant!"
The official smiled proudly. After being the emperor for so many years, he finally understood the joy of the hero's guidance: "Xiang Yang will go to inform the Kingdom of Jin again, and I will tell you about the Liao people. I have an idea. Let them go back quickly. Behind the mountain I don’t want it from Jiuzhou, as long as they have captured Wu Zhi, let them take it.”
Kui Xiangyang nodded repeatedly: "At that time, both of them will suffer losses, and we will benefit."
The official laughed, pointed his finger at Kui Xiangyang, and said happily: "Look, Xiangyang is also enlightened!"
Tong Guan raised his thumb and said: "Sure enough, the capable can do anything. The old minister only cares about his own military and strategic skills. He should be regarded as the best in the court. Today I know that the strongest among the strongest is the strongest! We have really reached a critical moment. Only a sage like your majesty, Qian Gang, and his arbitrariness can save the people of the world from fire and water."
Zhao Guanjia nodded reservedly: "I want to take charge of many undertakings in the world, and small military affairs, so I will naturally entrust you to me. But, haha, if you are unable to take up this important role, I will have no choice but to -"
He raised a hand, looked at it confidently, and said calmly: "With one hand, I can hold the sky!"
At the bottom of the cabin, next to a copper pipe, Wen Renshichong smiled silently and stood up to leave, but was held back by two lieutenants: "Brother, the emperor wants to plot against Brother Wu. Do we need to inform Qingzhou?"
Wen Renshi Chong laughed and said: "He talks to himself in his sleep, what's the use of passing it on?"
There is a saying: Wu Da's poisonous plot scares the gods and ghosts, and the officials only hold the sky with their hands. The heroic spirit spreads across thousands of miles, and the world is shocked by the roar.
