Li Hu invited Xiao Delidi, Xiao Temo, and Xiao Monknu to Hulie Mansion, and Yelu Mingyue also sat on the side.
"Ma Liang wrote from Yanjing, saying that undercurrents in Yanjing were surging." Li Hu handed several letters from Empress Xiao to Xiao Delidi and the other two, "You have a good look and see what Empress Xiao wants to tell us?"
Xiao Delidi's mood was very low and he grew a lot. After reading the letter, he sighed sadly, "The emperor probably won't do it anymore, but Yanjing is still there, Yanjing's palace tent is still there, power fight is still there, and the emperor's descendants and Empress Xiao are in danger."
Yelu Mingyue's face turned pale immediately, and tears rolled down. She never dreamed that the letters from her mother had a deep meaning, and it turned out to be asking for help from Li Hu. Li Hu quietly held her hand and whispered: "You must be stronger than your mother, so that we can save her."
Yelu Chun actually usurped usurpation, and he set up a new court without the death of the Emperor of the Great Liao Dynasty. This is a role model. The power of role models is infinite. These days, there are turbulent times, and heroes come from troubled times, and ambitious people want to be heroes. Once Yelu Chun dies, or in terms of his current situation similar to his death, there are too many people coveting the throne.
What method can we get the throne now? It's very simple. Whoever controls the army can be the emperor, but Yelu Chun was prepared for a long time. He was afraid that his subordinates would make his rebellion, so he divided the army into four, Xiao Gan, Li Chuwen, Yelu Dashi, and Yelu Ning each led one. Xiao Gan is now the prime minister of the Northern Prefecture and the commander of the army. The army he actually controlled was the six Xi army. Li Chuwen is the prime minister of the Southern Prefecture, and the troops he actually controlled were Zhang Jue's Liaoxing army and Guo Yaoshi's always-win army, while Yelu Dashi is the commander of the Southern Prefecture, and both of them have the Han and Fan army.
It is clear at a glance that the ones who are truly capable of coveting the throne are Xiao Gan and Li Chuwen, one of Xi people and the other of Han people. From this, it can be inferred that if those who covet the throne cannot handle Yelu Dashi and Yelu Ning, they must find stronger allies. Obviously, Xiao Gan will look for Jurchens to help, while Li Chuwen will surrender to the Song Dynasty.
Well, the situation in Yanjing is basically clear. Now Yelu Chun is named the emperor. His affairs are represented by Queen Xiao, and the ones who really control the authority are Xiao Gan and Li Chuwen. As long as one of these two people wins, Yelu Chun, Queen Xiao and their descendants will have the end of their lives.
"The Song army is attacking, and the situation in Yanjing is extremely critical, but... but..." Xiao Temo covered his face with both hands and choked up and said unspeakable. However, Li Hu was trapped in Xijing, unable to save him even if he wanted to. He didn't care about the life or death of Yelu Chun's family, what he cared about was the loss of Yanjing. The Great Liao Dynasty lost another territory.
Li Hu was also anxious. He didn't care whether Yelu Chun and Empress Xiao were alive. He was worried that Xiao Gangou would jump over the wall and introduce the Jin army into Yanjing. Now the situation in Youyan is developing in the direction of his father's story. The Song army was defeated in the first battle, and he might lose one after another. Why was it defeated? Li Hu couldn't figure it out and couldn't figure it out. It was not important at the moment. The most important thing at the moment was to ensure the safety of Yanjing. How could the Jurchens not let the Jurchens seize Yanjing? Otherwise, they would be done by themselves.
"You go back to Yanjing immediately." Li Hu said, "After you go back, you will pass on a false news, saying that the Northwest Army led the troops of the desert to the south of Daibei. It turned out that the emperor had assembled more than 100,000 troops and was forming an alliance with Daxia and I, Li Hu, and planned to attack the Jurchens together. Once the Jurchens were defeated, he would go south to Yanjing and revive the Great Liao."
This is the only way to alleviate the tension in Yanjing. The people in Yanjing probably did not expect that the emperor would come back. They would temporarily give up the fight and join forces to the outside world. Otherwise, they would all accompany Yelu Chun to lose their heads.
"Tiger King. The army in the Song Dynasty is attacking..." Xiao Monk Nu thought that this method was not good. Yanjing probably had been in chaos and could not control it anymore.
"The Song army will definitely fail this Northern Expedition." Li Hu interrupted the monk Xiao and said in a very firm tone. "And it will fail soon."
The four people in the room looked at Li Hu and couldn't believe it. Although they didn't know that the Song army was defeated in the first battle, even if they knew, they would not believe that the Song army would be defeated. How could it be? The Liao army is now at the end of its strength and it will be overturned. How could such an army defeat the powerful Song army? "Yanjing also knew about the Dezhou war. But they didn't know that the Liao army was almost wiped out. So after you arrived in Yanjing, everyone would believe it after you all joined the three families to form an alliance to attack the Jurchens. Li Hu waved his hand. "Let's set off tomorrow morning. You must arrive in Yanjing as soon as possible."
"What should I do next?" Xiao Temo asked. "This lie can't be hidden for long. Take a step back and say that if the Song army really defeated, the situation in Yanjing may deteriorate at an accelerated pace."
"I said I would counterattack." Li Hu said. "If I don't counterattack and defeat the Jurchens, how can I help Empress Xiao? If I don't help Empress Xiao, the Song army failed again in the Northern Expedition. Yanjing would definitely fall into the hands of the Jurchens. Then I will be finished."
Xiao Temo and Xiao Monk Nu looked at each other and smiled bitterly. Li Hu, a Han thief, is not easy. If he wants to save Xijing, he has to save Yanjing. If he wants to save Yanjing, he has to defeat the Jurchens. However, if he defeated the Jurchens, in order to protect Yanjing and ensure a three-point pattern, he has to turn against the Song Dynasty and fight an arduous battle. Can he hold on?
"When will the counterattack?" Xiao Temo no longer opposed Li Hu's counterattack this time.
"Before the rainy season comes, this battle will definitely be fought."
The Jin envoy Gao Qingren arrived in Datong.
It is normal for the two countries to send envoys to each other, but Gao Qingyi came this time not to investigate Li Hu's reality or to anger Li Hu to force him to attack on the initiative, but to delay Li Hu's counterattack.
Wanyan Yu (Pu Family Nu) was defeated in Yunnei and was careless and underestimated the enemy. He ambushed Yelu Mage, the Burrowing Fan Army, and the 5,000 horse army of the Daxia people. He suffered heavy casualties and had to ask Wanyan Gao for help.
The Battle of Daibei was too unhappy for the Jin army. It was a long time since the local incident occurred. The last time the Jin army defeated the war was when Yelu Yuji counterattacked Shangjing. Several generals died in the Jin army. This time, they suffered consecutive defeats on the battlefield of the Texas. Although the Battle of Dezhou was finally won, they won the battle in front of the Liao army and won the battle without any force.
Wanyan Gao had an ominous premonition. The strong dragon could not defeat the local snake. This time, the Jin army rushed to Daibei in a fierce manner. There were too many opponents and were full of dangers. As for the emperor's strategy, it was very good and very correct, but the correct strategy must be implemented correctly by the right person, otherwise it would be wrong.
Wanyan Gao thought about it repeatedly and asked Wanyan Aguda to ask Wanyan Aguda to personally fight. The emperor was the emperor. The true dragon emperor. Since Wanyan Aguda became the leader of the tribe, he went from unifying the tribe alliance to conquering Goryeo, from attacking the French tribes from the desert to raising the flag to rebel, Wanyan Aguda was invincible in the battle, and even miraculously defeated the 700,000 army of the Liao Dynasty with a 20,000 horse army. As long as Wanyan Aguda came, Daibei would be the territory of the Great Jin Kingdom.
Wanyan Gao ordered Wanyan Loushi to bring another 50,000 troops to support Wanyan Yu, and be sure to take down Yunnei as soon as possible.
The first battle to Yunnei was encountered with the Daxia people, which shows that the Khitans were very fast. They had already negotiated with the Daxia people and invited them out. In this case, they wanted to sit down with the Daxia people and talk about the future. It is obviously a wishful thinking to form an alliance and divide the North. Only by fighting first, defeating the Daxia people and being afraid of fighting, can you sit down and talk.
Most of the troops taken away by Wanyan Yu and Wanyan Loushi were the main force of the Jin Dynasty, Meng'an Mouke, and the troops left on the Datong front were mainly surrendered by the Liao army. Meng'an Mouke was a local military organization implemented after the establishment of the Jin Dynasty, mainly composed of Jurchens. In recent years, the territory has become larger and larger, and the ethnic groups have become more and more mixed. There are also Khitans, Xi people, Bohai people, and even Han people from the Northeast Road have also been included in this system.
These Liao army surrendered troops have not had time to incorporate them into the Meng'an Mouke system for various reasons, especially the surrendered troops captured on the battlefield in Dezhou, and there is no basic trust. Therefore, although there are many troops, the hidden dangers are also very high. The main force Meng'an Mouke cannot come back, and Wanyan Gao really dared not fight in this battle.
So Gao Qingyi arrived in Datong and re-recommended the maritime alliance. He also proudly told Li Hu that Guo Lu Haobo Jilie Wanyan Yu led a 100,000 army into Yunnei, and the other half of Dai Beidi was already the treasure of the Jurchens.
Li Hu wanted to slap the Bohai people. The Bohai people are also a nation with a long history. They were founded in the Tang Dynasty and were later annexed by the Khitans. Gao Yongchang once tried to restore the country, but was shamelessly killed by the Jurchens, and his dream of restoring the country was shattered. As the best among the Bohai people, as a Bohai Confucian scholar who reads Han culture, it would be fine if you don’t want to restore the country. You even sell your ancestors to seek honor. If you help your enemies kill the Bohai people, are you still a human being?
Li Hu despised him extremely. He drove him away after a few perfunctory words, and then secretly told Wang Dazhong to find a few Bohai people, and while Gao Qingyi was wandering around Datong, he beat him up, "Beat him harder and vent my anger."
There was a group of Bohai people in the Lihu subway guard. These people almost beat Gao Qingyi to death. Fortunately, Wang Dazhong was quick-witted and carried Gao Qingyi on his shoulder and ran away.
Gao Qingyi was carried back to the Jin army camp by several subordinates. Zong Han was so angry that he asked carefully that Gao Qingyi's affairs had not been completed yet and he had to send someone to him. Zong Wang thought about it for a while and decided to ask Wuyan to go there.
When Wuyan arrived in Datong, Li Hu was surprised and happy, but Wuyan's entourage was afraid that he would be injured, so Li Hu would find it difficult to meet him alone. Li Hu remained silent and asked someone to tell Wanyan Xingxing. Wanyan Xingxing was very happy to hear that the teacher was coming and held a banquet at Hulie Mansion tonight.
In 1114, Wanyan Aguda transformed the original organization and broke through blood ties. It was stipulated that households were used as calculation units, 300 households were used as the Mouke, and centurion was appointed as the leader, ten Mouke was used as Meng'an, and thousands of men were appointed as the leader. Due to the implementation of the "strongest people are soldiers" that is, the system of unity of military and civilians, Meng'an Mouke was both a military organization and a local administrative organization (called Meng'an Moukehu), which is the basic social organization of the Jurchens.
The formal establishment was when Wanyan Aguda established the Jin regime. Historical records show that "in the second year of Taizu ascended the throne, he defeated Ye Xie Shi with 2,500, and ordered three hundred households to be the siege, and ten of them to be the siege." It can be seen that at this time, the so-called Meng'an Muji was not a temporary establishment within the tribe before the founding of the country, but a military and administrative position using the "house" under his jurisdiction as the measurement standard. This means that Meng'an Muji was divided based on the region.
