Chapter 176 The Great Liao Palace Changes (5)

This is something they can't make, after all, they really attacked the palace of the Liao Emperor, even if the Liao Emperor is captured, then the Song and Liao countries will start a full-scale war, and both sides will not die; Now the combat power of the Song army is still inferior to the Liao army; Now the new army has only more than 10,000 people, which cannot change the military strength of Song Liao.

Moreover, Zhang Wanxiang is also strongly opposed, if the Song army launches an attack on the Liao Emperor's Palace at this time, the feasibility of this military operation will do more harm than good, after all, it involves too wide and too large all aspects;

Now the Great Liao State is still thriving, a prosperous scene, and the military and people of the Liao State are still united; Unless there is civil strife in the Great Liao, it is quite unwise to start a war with the Great Liao at this time, and with the current military strength of the Great Song Dynasty, it is undoubtedly an egg to hit the stone;

Moreover, at this time, most of the people in the Great Song Dynasty were afraid of Liao like a tiger and just wanted to be content with the status quo, so the war-weariness was high, and the enterprising spirit of the border army was forcefully stopped.

At this time, the scout came to report, and saw Zhang Yuning saluting forward, and then said; "Report to the division commander and political commissar, and report on the existing major emergency military situation under his subordinates."

Yang Wenguang suddenly came to his senses, and he said to Yang Yuning: "You have worked hard, what is the major and urgent military situation?" ”

Zhang Yuning said loudly: "Division commander, political commissar, now that there has been a palace change in the Liao Emperor's palace, I sneaked into the Liao Emperor's camp under the leadership of Yang Yunliang's squad leader, and found that the palace was full of fire, thick smoke was billowing out, and there were two brigades of men and horses fighting. ”

When Yang Wenguang heard this, he was immediately overjoyed, he quickly stood up, walked straight to Zhang Yuning, and then grabbed his shoulder, with a half-believing look on his face;

Then he asked with a short breath: "The military information you said, there is no lie in it, but everything is true?" ”

After getting Zhang Yuning's affirmative answer, he saw that Yang Wenguang was sitting still, and then he looked at Meng Ming eagerly, with a thirsty expression.

He asked eagerly, "Brother Zhengsheng, tell me what you think." Let's take a closer look at it and come up with a charter. ”

Meng Ming said at this time: "It is a great thing that there is civil strife in the Liao Emperor's Palace, and the heavens are favoring the Great Song Dynasty; I heard that the prince of Da Liao is also in the palace, it must be that the Liao emperor had an accident, and there are a large group of people from the prince's gang who instigated the prince to supervise the country or support the crown prince to ascend the throne.

Let's wait and see what happens, no matter what, the palace of the Liao Emperor will definitely return, and there will be no military action against our army for a while, I suggest that it is to occupy the Bauhinia Pass in advance, and occupy the Juyong Pass by the trend, and it is best to capture Youzhou. ”

He also said: "General intelligence to the commander, Brother Ping Zhong asked our scouts to make every effort to survey the detailed topography and traffic of Bauhinia Pass, Juyong Pass and Youzhou, and draw relevant topographic maps by the way; has been used in the future. ”

At this time, it was getting late, the war in the camp of the Liao Emperor had subsided, and Xiao Yunjin fled to Juyong Pass in a hurry under the support of Yang Youxuan and others, with only a thousand troops;

The Liao Emperor's royalist army also suffered heavy losses, and it was unable to pursue the rebel troops, and the strength was less than a thousand.

Yelu Longxu looked at the broken camp in the firelight, the tents were burning everywhere, and the ground was full of the corpses of soldiers killed in battle on both sides, and the blood was flowing like a river, and he couldn't help but feel a sense of grief and indignation in his heart.

At this time, Prime Minister Zhang Jian came and said: "Your Majesty, we have found that the Song army in the direction of Zhuozhou has signs of moving here, and we hope that the emperor will immediately return to Shangjing and preside over the overall situation in case the back wall catches fire." ”

At this time, Yelu Longxu came back to his senses, and he knew that the most important thing at this time was to appease the hearts of the army and the people, not to feel sad and self-pity here.

He was originally a hero, and he immediately settled down, and he said to Zhang Jian: "The prime minister is very right, we can return to Beijing, and we will not stop in Nanjing in the middle."

I wrote a royal decree to announce the rebellion of the concubine's henchmen to the king of the North and South Courtyard, the Xuanhui Yuan, the enemy martyr Madu Division, the Yili Biyuan, the king of a certain ministry (whose real name is Yili Jin), and the envoy of a certain department; and emphatically informed the national uncle Bali and the second room and the national uncle's other departments, so that especially the descendants of the Xiao family of the Shu Luping family, let them expel Xiao Yunjin's clan and take it as a warning; Left behind in Xijing to arrest Xiao Liu's first-class rebel and rescue the kidtapped prince. ”

After he finished writing the holy decree, he asked people to use Hai Dongqing to deliver the message, and he saw a falcon eagle soaring into the sky and soon disappeared into the vast night.

Zhang Jian also hurriedly received the order and let the soldiers and horses of the palace pull out the camp, they dropped a large amount of baggage, and there was no time to burn, so they galloped to the north all night without stopping.

At this time, the scouts of the 1st Army Division also captured a Liao army general from the camp, tortured one side, and also found out the news that the Liao Emperor had fled in a hurry, and they hurriedly reported the military situation to the division commander Yang Wenguang.

There was also a team of scouts who captured an official from Xiao Yunjin's team, and also learned that Xiao Yunjin and others wanted to wander to Xijing Road, wanting to take the opportunity to support the prince to stand on his own feet, and put on a posture of fighting against the Liao Emperor.

Let's talk about the descendants of the Great Liao, there is a Liao generation that is enough to compete with the imperial family, stable, continuous existence and continuous development of the descendant group. The Hou clan group includes five major ethnic groups, including the Second Trial Secret, Shu Luping Family Xiao, Xiao Siwen Family Xiao, and Uncle Guo Beibu Xiao, who co-govern the country with the emperor through the selection of concubines and important high-ranking officials, and participate in national decision-making, forming the unique custom of "co-governance of the emperor and queen" in the Liao Dynasty.

Because first of all, the Empress Dowager Xiao does not refer to a specific person, because in the Liao State, the queens of all dynasties are surnamed Xiao, which is an indisputable fact, and the Liao State has also had a time when the Empress Dowager was in power, and there have been two generations of Empress Dowager Xiao who have had a significant impact on the country.

In the official history of the Liao Kingdom in the previous life, the first one was Xiao Xuan, the queen of Liao Jingzong, the small character Yanyan, whose original surname was Bali, the queen of Yeluxian of Liao Jingzong. is known as Empress Dowager Xiao in folk opera, and it is also often mentioned and smeared in the Yang family; This person had a significant influence in the history of the development of the Liao State, and even cultivated a generation of Shengming monarchs, the Liao Shengzong.

And the other is Xiao Yunjin, the queen of Liao Shengzong, who later gave birth to Emperor Yelu Zongzhen of Liao Xingzong, but this person played with power, which once made the national situation very tense.

Of course, in the life that Meng Ming traveled through, Meng Ming was like a butterfly flapping its wings, triggering a series of effects, and history deviated from its original trajectory because of this butterfly effect.

Therefore, Meng Ming decided to immediately send people to capture Bauhinia Pass and Juyong Pass, among which Di Qing's brigade chased Xiao Yunjin's team, wanting to take advantage of the chaos to detain the pass.

Later, Guo Zun's brigade was sent to march to Zijing Pass, at this time, Zijing Pass has been in the territory of Daliao for a long time, and there has been no war for nearly 30 years, so there are not many troops, and the defense is slack, so there is a great opportunity to take advantage of it.

At this time, the military intelligence report about the rebellion in the camp of the Liao Emperor had already been submitted to Chong Shiheng's case, and he summoned the generals at this time, told the news to the generals who joined the meeting, and then discussed the next military action plan.

He said at this time: "Everyone, we have a God-given opportunity, we must seize the warplane, follow the Liao Emperor's camp, and attack Youzhou, now Youzhou's troops are empty, the door is wide open, and we will be able to go down with a drum; One of the first to attack Shanhaiguan and Gubeikou, occupy the passes along the Great Wall, and then the seven states east of Taihang Mountain in the thirteen states of Youyun will be recovered, and everyone here will go down in history. ”
