Huanglong Mansion will be the first prefecture established by the Jurchens in the future. They will establish their regime here, use it as their nest, and then rely on this white mountain and black water to send the Liao Kingdom and the Northern Song Dynasty into the memory of history.

But now Huanglong Mansion is just a dilapidated small market town, and there is not even a city wall. After Chen Yuan arrived here, he immediately suggested that Yelu Hongji take soil to build a wall.

His purpose has always been to ensure his own safety whether he can defeat others or not. Is it useful to build a wall in a short time? I don’t know that even if the wall does not resist the enemy, it can at least give Chen Yuan a sense of security in his eyes.

In that dilapidated government office, the table was just set up, and Yelu Hongji immediately asked, "Where is the main force of the Jurchens?"

Liu Fang shook her head and pressed her palm against the Huanglong Mansion: "It's right in front of us, we don't know the specific location."

Chen Yuan frowned: "That's a little trouble."

Liu Fang said: "I mean, I will take three thousand elite soldiers first, and the prince will be stationed in Huanglong Mansion with seven thousand troops. Once I find the trace of the Jurchens, I will immediately notify the prince to lead the troops to encircle and suppress the enemy."

Yelu Hongji had no objection. He had also made plans for the entire battle, but before the expedition, Liao Xingzong had already made it clear. Will the idea of ​​Yelu Hongji believe that he is a waste, and will the idea of ​​a waste be useful?

Although Chen Yuan's encouragement gave him a little confidence, this confidence was not enough to make him oppose a general's opinion on such a military event.

Chen Yuan glanced at Liu Fang, and felt a little suspicious. Leading three thousand elite soldiers first? Can you choose elite soldiers among these ten thousand people? But it would be best if he was willing to die on the battlefield by himself, so he could save himself from causing trouble in the future.

There was nothing to say at the moment, but Guard Xiao asked, "What if we didn't find those Jurchens around us?"

Liu Fang's plan was obviously brewing in his mind: "If there is no movement from the Jurchens around me, I will lead three thousand people to fight to Changbai Mountain and approach their nests, forcing these Jurchens to fight with us. The prince leads the troops to keep me a distance of 100 miles. This will ensure that there is no accident. The only thing I worry about is that the prince has no future to lead the army. If there is an emergency, I am afraid that you will not be able to deal with it."

After hearing him, Chen Yuan turned his eyes and said, "The general's plan is great. Those Jurchens heard that their lair was attacked and would definitely go back. We don't have to do anything else at that time. When they fight with the general, they will just surround them from the side. I think these things can be done by Xiao Guard and others."

Seeing that Chen Yuan understood his intention, Liu Fang immediately smiled: "Brother Chen doesn't have to praise me. After all, we don't know the trends of those Jurchens now. Everything is just my preliminary idea. Let's do this. When I go back, I think about what is not detailed. I will give the prince a safer plan tomorrow."

Yelu Hongji nodded: "Okay, we can't fight, so we'll have to work hard for General Liu."

After Liu Fang left, Yelu Hongji asked Chen Yuan: "Chen Shimei, do you think we can win? If General Liu's plan goes well, we can attack forward and backward, so I think there is still hope."

Chen Yuan smiled, looked at the four guards, and then looked at Yelu Hongji: "Prince, please forgive me for your fault. General Liu thought he was used to fighting the Song Dynasty in the south. This method was useful to deal with the Song army, but it would not work against those Jurchens."

Yelu Hongji immediately asked, "What do you mean?"

The four guards next to them also pricked up their ears and looked at Chen Yuan, waiting for him to continue talking.

Chen Yuan said: "I can't fight, but I know what the Jurchens' homes in Changbai Mountain look like. I heard that most of them live in caves and bushes. If they have a slightly better condition, they can build a few straw huts. The prince thinks, what is worth coming back to maintain such a home?"

After hearing this, Guard Xiao felt quite reasonable and immediately received: "General Liu must have regarded Changbai Mountain as the city of the Song Dynasty. But why didn't you remind him just now?"

Chen Yuan has been in close contact with them these days. He thought it was time to tell the truth. He looked at the eyes of the five people, especially the four guards, and said slowly: "Because the emperor promised to let me be an official in the future, so I want to go back alive."

Guard Xiao looked at his companions, as if he understood something, and slowly came over: "There are still a family waiting for us in the four of us. I also want to go back alive, Brother Chen might as well say bluntly."

Chen Yuan looked at Yelu Hongji and showed a friendly smile: "Prince, I have a letter from the princess here, please check it out."

Yelu Luling explained Chen Yuan’s plan clearly in the letter and told Yelu Hongji clearly that this was the best way for him to survive. It was also the best arrangement for the ten thousand Liao soldiers who had no ability to fight against the Jurchens again.

After reading the letter, Yelu Hongji looked a little ugly. He had known for a long time that he was just a bait, but he didn't expect that he would even lose the qualification to be a bait in the end.

Yelu Hongji's mouth trembled twice, looked at Chen Yuan and Xiao Guard, and asked softly: "Am I really useless?"

Before Chen Yuan said anything, Guard Xiao immediately said: "Prince, if you can survive with these unmovable soldiers outside, no matter what method you use, you will be the supreme god in their minds. On the contrary, if you let them die, even if you win, their relatives will curse you when you pass by triumph."

Chen Yuan nodded: "Well, let alone, prince, you know that you can't win at all."

Yelu Hongji nodded: "Okay, let's do it like this. But what should General Liu Fang do? I don't think he will agree with our plan."

Chen Yuan and Xiao Guard looked at each other and found that the other party's eyes were full of treason. Yelu Hongji was carrying the crime of deception, but it was unreasonable to let Yelu Hongji take it alone.

Since Liu Fang wants to go, let him go. As long as these 7,000 people don’t leave the city, Liu Fang will definitely lose. When he comes back alive, he will make a mistake in command. It’s better if he dies, everything can be pushed onto him.

Liu Fang has been fighting in the south, and he is a Han Chinese. He usually has to be a human being with his tail between his legs in the Liao Kingdom, and he can't see through these tricks of deceit.

When Chen Yuan and the others had already shown their swords, he was still unaware of it. While drawing out the three thousand soldiers who followed him to fight, he was still thinking about how to complete the plan that Chen Yuan and the others had no plans to cooperate.

Two days later, Liu Fang's finally left here and went straight to Changbai Mountain. Yelu Hongji was unwilling to come out to see him off because Yelu Hongji always felt that he could not face Liu Fang's innocent eyes. So Chen Yuan replaced Yelu Hongji and saw off for Liu Fang's three thousand soldiers.

To be honest, Chen Yuan also felt that it was a bit immoral to deceive a person like Liu Fang, but this is the case in this world. It is like this in the officialdom. If you are too pure, you can only be a stepping stone for others.

When the three thousand soldiers walked out of the newly built earthen wall of Huanglong Mansion, Chen Yuan knew that they might never come back.

There was a sense of guilt in his heart that suppressed Chen Yuan's heart, and he let out a long sigh. Guard Xiao, who was standing next to him, was indeed full of spring breeze: "Brother Chen, what should we do next? Could it be that we are just staying in this Huanglong Mansion?"

Chen Yuan put aside his distracting thoughts and squeezed out a smile and said, "We immediately ask for help from the rear, and let the Ninth Prince and the Princess lead troops to suppress the bandits. We brothers stay here, and there is no need to blow the air. What's wrong with this? If Guard Xiao feels bored, we might as well push our hands. What?"

Guard Xiao laughed: "Okay! I heard that Brother Chen is doing a good business. You will be the banker tonight so that your brothers can win some fun money."

Chen Yuan was not polite either: "Okay, let's put the table on now, bet early and win money soon!"

Chen Yuan dared to gamble on this occasion because these gamblings from soldiers were different from those in casinos. Most of them were not fake, and they all depended on their luck.

So Chen Yuan pulled Yelu Hongji to sit in the banker together, and placed two large tables in the dilapidated yamen, and everyone began to shout.

Most of the soldiers were good at gambling. After two dices were scattered, the whole house was already full of people, and the table was crowded with people, and the bets began to varied, including those who had deposited gold and silver, and those who had deposited copper coins.

From time to time, some people lost all and went out dejectedly, but more people squeezed in from outside.

In less than a cup of tea, a small hill had already piled up in front of Yelu Hongji, and blood filled Yelu Hongji's face, making him feel a little hot on his cheeks, and even his voice began to roar, but his interest was getting higher and higher.

Chen Yuan did not forget the most important thing, and looked at a person who looked like an officer and asked, "Have you arranged the post?"

The officer nodded: "Don't worry, the arrangement is done, it won't be a mistake."

Chen Yuan was no longer worried about anything else. Anyway, the letters asking for help had been sent out, so he stayed in this safe place. Wait until Yelu Niegulu and Yelu Luling and others brought troops to suppress the bandits, and said with confidence: "Okay, keep betting!"

The Huanglong Mansion was full of gambling in the whole night, but Liu Fang outside couldn't even get through the first night.

In the evening, he found a small group of Jurchens appearing in his sight and immediately went to strangle them.

The dozens of women immediately fled into the woods. Liu Fang didn't think much about it, just wanted to catch a living person and ask where the Jurchen brigade was.

So he sent hundreds of soldiers to chase them into the dense forest and ordered them to catch a living person.
