Ma Niu asked about Di Qing's origin, Di Qing looked at Ma Niu, thought for a while, and did not answer immediately.

Ma Niu was a little anxious, and asked again: "Isn't it convenient for Di Xiang to say?" ”

At this time, the scene suddenly changed a little, and Ma Niu, who was dressed in a dragon robe, seemed to have lost his majesty as an emperor in the past few days at this moment.

Di Qing responded with a smile and said, "Your Majesty really wants to know?" ”

Ma Niu was even more anxious: "Things have come to this point, I ...... Naturally, I want to know. ”

Di Qing nodded: "My father's name, Shang Di Qing." ”

"Di Qing?" Ma Niu repeated the words suspiciously, and his face changed greatly: "What? Are you the son of Di Qing of the Southern Dynasty? You are from the Southern Dynasty, and you are from the Great Song Dynasty? ”

"Your Majesty was surprised?"

“…… It's not unexpected, it's not unexpected, I've thought about it for a long time, but I don't believe it, decades later, the Great Song Dynasty court actually has such a large fleet at sea, I just didn't expect it...... "I don't know why, Ma Niu suddenly became a little messy at this moment, maybe his dragon robe suddenly looked too abrupt in front of Di Yong." The throne, which has only been sitting for a few years, does not seem to be convincing anymore.

Ma Niu was suspicious of his dragon robe, how could the Great Song Dynasty court, the Great Song Emperor, tolerate another emperor?

"Your Majesty still guessed a little wrong, I am a person from the Great Song Dynasty, and my father is also an official of the Great Song Dynasty, but unfortunately I am not an official, and I am not appointed by the Great Song Dynasty, I have a big brother, his name is Gan Qi, I just obey the orders of my eldest brother to do these things."

Di Yong's words immediately brought Ma Niu's thoughts back a little.

Ma Niu hurriedly asked, "Ganqi?" Who is Ganch? ”

He really doesn't know who Gan Qi is, a low-level figure in Yanjing City of Liao, how can he know who Gan Qi is? Even if he heard a sentence anywhere, he would not remember the name of a literati in the Southern Dynasty in his heart.

"It's normal for Your Majesty not to know my eldest brother's name, and in a few days, Your Majesty should know who he is." Di Yong said this, but he still had some reservations.

"Is the big ship on the sea all Ganchi's?" Ma Niu asked again, in fact, at this time, his heart was much more settled, Di Yong was not obedient to the orders of the Great Song Dynasty, so he was relieved. Listening to Di Yong say that he has a big brother, the word "big brother" has the atmosphere of the market as soon as he hears it, and Ma Niu's mind is much more stable.

"Yes, those ships belong to my eldest brother Ganchi."

Hearing Di Yong's sure words, Ma Niu was almost worried, and asked, "What is your eldest brother doing this for?" For money? For the sake of potential? ”

Di Yong shook his head and replied, "I don't know this, I just do what I am told." ”

Di Yong actually knew, but he understood that Ma Niu was just a chess piece in a big game of chess, and the chess pieces should not know too much, lest the chess pieces be uncontrolled. Di Yong said that his father was Di Qing, which was sincere enough for Ma Niu.

Ma Niu nodded: "Come to think of it, your eldest brother must be a great hero." ”

Di Yong replied with a proud face: "That's nature, my eldest brother, is a figure that no one can compare with in this world." ”

This sentence, in fact, made Ma Niu a little unhappy in his heart, but he did not show this unhappiness.

Why not be happy? After all, now in Luanzhou, among the 100,000 troops, in the newly established Dayan Kingdom, he Ma Niu is the emperor, and he Ma Niu is Di Yong's boss, but Di Yong, a subordinate, is facing another person in his heart, and this feeling is like a woman being jealous.

"Will the military advisor stay here as an official in the future, or will he ......," Ma Niu asked with a direct word.

Di Yong immediately understood Ma Niu's thoughts, and replied: "Your Majesty doesn't have to worry, now that the enemy army is besieging the city, I have no way to retreat, I can only fight to the death, how can I think so much?" Just wait for the enemy army to be defeated, this Yanyun countless cities, Your Majesty just send a large army to attack everywhere, to get what you want, at that time, the Great Yan is the real Great Yan, and Your Majesty at that time is the Ninety-Five Supreme who is truly destined for heaven. Just wait to win this battle, and when the time comes, what does it matter if I stay or not? ”

Ma Niu heard this, and thought about it in his heart. also has a plan, Di Yong is right, in this situation, no matter how much he Di Yong thinks, he can only retreat from the enemy.

When the enemy is defeated......

Wishing Di Yong to leave is the most beneficial thing for himself.

Ma Niu was still jealous just now, thinking about testing Di Yong's sincerity, hoping that Di Yong could help him wholeheartedly. Thinking about it at this time, I suddenly felt that I was wrong, Di Yong now has a very high prestige in the army, even higher than the prestige of him as an emperor. Although Ma Niu's own fame is outside, it has spread throughout the sixteen states of Yanyun. But it was really in this Luanzhou city that Di Yong was ordered by the 100,000 troops under his command.

If this battle is really won, Di Yong will be a threat to the emperor Ma Niu.

Yes, Di Yong has to go.

Ma Niu thought so, completely overturning his previous thoughts.

Only when Di Yong is gone, can he sit on the throne safely.

Ma Niu turned his head to look at Di Yong at this time, and asked again: "Doesn't Di Xiang like high-ranking officials?" ”

This is a real temptation, he was suddenly a little afraid that Di Yong would fall in love with the high-ranking official Houlu, once Di Yong really fell in love with the high-ranking official Houlu, maybe one day, this Dayan Emperor would change it.

Di Yong smiled lightly: "My eldest brother may need me more in the future." ”

Ma Niu is completely relaxed, so good, this is the best.

Ma Niu seems to have grown up, in the past, he was a man in the market, but today he has begun to play with the emperor's mind, and his vision is completely different.

"Then Di Xiang will inspect the city defenses well, and I will go back."

Di Yong sent Ma Niu away, watching Ma Niu's back disappear under the steps, Di Yong sighed deeply.

It's a pity, the world is like this, what can I do?

At this moment, Di Yong really admires his eldest brother Gan Qi, such a big game of chess has already been played to this point, and there are still people who really can't extricate themselves from the chessboard.

Just a few months ago, Gan Qi took Di Yong and a few people to Yanyun, calculating such a big game of chess, raising prices, forcing Liang to become a thief, and guiding the thief into a big thief, and making a big thief into an emperor with an army of 100,000 people, this emperor is just a plaything between applause, just to contain the army of Liao for Gan Qi.

Di Yong also felt a little sad, how could he really have no feelings when he got along with these people day and night in the past few months?

But what is this affection worth? The righteousness of the family and the country, the righteousness of brotherhood, which is not more important than this feeling?

This Great Yan Kingdom, this Luanzhou City, and this city full of civil and military officials, but it is just like a dream, but many people really can't get out in this dream.

What Liu Bang Xiang Yu, Gan Daxianggong, is the real turn of hands for clouds and hands for rain.

That's it, Di Yong didn't think much about it, turned his head and shouted left and right: "Continue to patrol, you must be careful, tomorrow the enemy army will attack the city, to ensure that nothing goes wrong." ”

The men who had just seen His Majesty Emperor Dayan on the left and right were still excited, and shouted loudly: "Obey!" ”

Obviously, these people know that as long as this battle is over, it is not difficult to say that there are no big officials, just a county magistrate or something. In the past, the Yamen Zhixian was high one by one, and between entering and leaving, everyone was surrounded and everyone bowed. What a face, how majestic?

Nowadays, everyone has the opportunity to be the prefect of the county, as long as they are willing to fight, the prefect is possible. How can we not seize this kind of opportunity? Look at that Zhudong, in the past, he was just a murderous master, wanted by the government and hid everywhere, but now the grandfather of the country is sealed, the fief is in Luanzhou, all the people in Luanzhou belong to their family, look back at this huge Luanzhou city, who can not envy?

At dawn, smoke rose from the outside of the city, and it didn't take long for the horn to camp.

The Liao army began to line up.

Above the city, preparations also began, and the men began to move all kinds of heavy objects to the city while chewing the bread that had just been handed down.

The long poles specially used to push the long ladder were placed under the battlements and prepared.

Light a bonfire, boil the grease in the iron pot thoroughly, and prepare to pour it at any time.

The drums outside the city sounded, and the Liao army began to attack the city.

At this time, everyone knows that they have to hide, behind the battlements, or cover themselves with door and bed boards, because the rain of arrows is coming. This is also what Di Junshi has repeatedly taught before, when you hear the sound of drums, you must hide.

The rain of arrows came as promised.

Not long after, the drums of the enemy army intensified and began to charge.

Don't be in a hurry, there are people everywhere shouting "don't be in a hurry". Wait for the enemy to approach, wait for the enemy to climb the wall. There were also sporadic arrows that began to fight back.

A big battle, a tragic start.

Di Yong sat in the city tower and watched quietly.

Now this anti-thief army has played a confident role in the defense of the city, and Di Yong has always praised these soldiers for their bravery that is unprecedented, making these men think that the war is nothing more than this, and the Liao people are nothing more than that.

This self-confidence, for the time being, is excellent.

However, one day, it may be severely beaten by reality.

Maybe Di Yong has this kind of thought, right?

Unknown.

Once again, the Liao army's attack was repulsed, and all the heavy objects on the city wall were almost tilted, and under the city wall, the heavy objects that poured down for several days almost raised the ground a few feet, making it difficult for the enemy to settle down when attacking.

Di Yong smiled and walked up and down the city wall, constantly praising every man he could meet, almost praising these men as invincible in the world.

For those who have made meritorious contributions, they will immediately start to be rewarded, and the prefect of the county will be sealed out a lot, but fortunately, Yanyun's territory is not small, and there are enough prefects of the county to seal it. There are many people who have added merit to merit, and Di Yong also has many official positions to be sealed. Three provinces and six departments, two governments and three divisions, Taiwan pavilions, lieutenant generals and colonels, and Di Yong are all at your fingertips.

Even Di Yong had to explain to these people what each official position was for.

Everyone still has to comment on which official position has more oil and water and can make a fortune, and which official position has less oil and water, whether it will work to change one.

There are also some who died in battle, and Di Yong did not hesitate to seal his official position, sealing his son, and no son sealing his father and brother. also gave a large amount of money for the bereavement, and the opening was hundreds of thousands. Let's not talk about this money first, all the big households in Luanzhou City have been confiscated, and the money that there is really no will be remembered first. The world is calling, and you are still worried about not having these hundreds of dollars?

Di Yong also specially organized the women such as Kabuki in the city to work everywhere, and this labor army was not the kind of physical, but psychological. Di Yong asked these women to tell stories to the men everywhere, what kind of stories did they tell?

The story of Liu Bang, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty, who fought the world, started from the unveiling of the rod and talked about the vassals. Of course, it is enough to talk about the great feudal ministers, and then there is no need to talk about the matter of killing the heroes with all the bows, anyway, these mud-legged people don't know.

After lunch, the Liao army began to attack the city again.

Yelu Renxian obviously didn't care about it, he just wanted to use his life to pile up, pile him up for ten days and half a month, pile up his tens of thousands of lives, and pile up this Luanzhou City.

Yelu Renxian also had some luck, and his luck was that he hoped that these rabble in Luanzhou City would be in a panic early under the daily casualties, and then scatter as birds and beasts, and flee for their lives.

In the afternoon, after the siege, Yeluren also transferred many craftsmen from various places to start building more advanced siege equipment, such as ladder trucks that could not be pushed down, but this could not be built in a day or two. But it still has to be made, it really can't be done, even if it takes a little longer, it can be used for the final blow.

Anyway, the thieves in Luanzhou City are bound to perish, and there is absolutely no way to survive. The great Liao, the armor of a million, the north according to the grassland desert, the eastern Liaodong city is innumerable, Yanyun has sixteen states, the Great Song Dynasty has been beaten year after year, and the Western Xia is scared to give gifts every year, how can there be an exception to suppress a bandit?

The drum beat again.

Yeluren first personally beat the horse to supervise the battle behind the battle, fought for a few days, the loss was not small, the army under his command began to be a little slack, Yeluren first had to personally supervise the battle, which one was slack, and the general of which part was killed.

The army rushed up like a tide, shouting to kill the heavens, and mourning all over the field. If Jeruren first turned a deaf ear, his life would have died on the battlefield.

Suddenly, another group of fast horsemen galloped forward, asked left and right a few times, and went straight to the high platform where Yeluren had first supervised the battle.

"The Divine Decree has arrived, the Holy Decree has arrived!"

Hearing this, Yeluren hurriedly got up and knelt on the ground to receive the order.

"The emperor has a saying: The Song army raided Yanyun, and the army was already under Yanjing, and I was in danger, so Yeluren, the privy envoy of the Northern Court, quickly led the army back to Yanjing, and defeated the Song army outside the city!"

"What?" Yelu Renxian couldn't believe that this holy decree was true, and his first reaction was to wonder if it was a conspiracy made up by the thieves in Luanzhou City.

So he got up directly, snatched the holy decree, and read it clearly up and down.

Looking up again, Yeluren first opened his mouth and asked urgently, "What's the matter?" How dare the Song people go to war? What about Jeruethin? Isn't he in Yanjing? Yanjing already had 20,000 troops left behind, plus 30,000 troops on the border. The Song people were in a hurry, and there were not many people who wanted to come, so why did they let the Song soldiers come to Yanjing City? ”

Obviously, Yeluren first overturned his suspicions, how could he not recognize the truth from the falsehood of such a thing as a holy decree? Even if you can't recognize the truth or falsehood, several of the people in front of you who sent the holy decree are people who often walk around the palace, and they look familiar with each other, how can this holy decree be fake? Yelu Renxian's suspicion was not really a suspicion that the decree was false, he just couldn't believe it.

"The privy envoy, the details of which are not known, only know that Xiao Yuma fought a defeated battle in the Juma River, nearly 30,000 horses, were beaten by the Song people to lose their armor, and all of them let the Song soldiers come to the city. His Majesty strictly ordered that the privy envoy hurry back to the rescue, otherwise His Majesty will be in danger. ”

"This Xiao Derang, there is more than enough success and more than failure, usually boasting, no one has him who can fight, and when the matter comes, he can still lose the battle by guarding the riverbank. Rubbish! As he spoke, Yelu Renxian turned his head to look at Luanzhou City, which was in a great battle, and he had piled up seven or eight thousand people under this city, and four or five thousand people had been killed in the battle, and thousands of wounded soldiers had been wounded. The casualties of the bandits in the city were apparently at least 3,000.

The battle has already reached this point, and if it holds on for a few more days, the city will inevitably be broken.

Such a great opportunity, once the troops are withdrawn, will inevitably rise up and ravage countless state capitals, and it will be even more difficult to crack down on them in the future.

Retreating from the army at this time is really a fool's doing.

"Privy envoy, the matter has come to this, or focus on the overall situation, how can some thieves compare to the Song people? At most, the thieves will occupy some more cities, and once the Song army gains power, it will be ...... Disastrous. ”

Yeluren turned his head first and asked, "How many people are in the Song army?" ”

"This, but there is no actual number, when I went out of the city, I didn't see the Song army, I think it was always as much as thirty or fifty thousand. However, if the Song people gain momentum, they will definitely send a steady stream of troops to help. "I can't blame this person who asked for help, when he came, it was when Xiao Derang had just returned to Beijing, and Gan Qi had not yet arrived in Yanjing. The specific number of Song troops, these people who asked for help really don't know.

The specific number of the real Song army was only really clear when Gan Qi was about to arrive in Yanjing, and the Liao court was really clear. Information in this era is so hard to obtain.

"Alas!" Yeluren was anxious first, then looked at the scene of the siege, and said, "How many days can you do it?" There are still more than 20,000 troops in Yanjing City, as well as hundreds of thousands of people. I want to be able to block it for a few days. ”

"This ...... Privy Envoy, Your Majesty's Holy Decree, let you receive the decree and return to the aid immediately. Alas...... You also know that there are not many troops in Yanjing City, Your Majesty, Your Majesty's safety is all tied to this, you ......"

"How could I not know that Your Majesty's safety is at stake? I am ......" Yeluren first looked at Luanzhou City, and then said: "Alas! ”

"The villain talks a lot, and then persuades, Your Majesty is in Yanjing City, and please ask the privy envoy to come back to help quickly......" The person who spoke was actually very anxious, because he still had a family in Yanjing City, if Ye Luren didn't save Yanjing first, once the city was really broken, the consequences would be unimaginable. This person even thought about it a little more, the privy envoy of the North Court, Yeluren dragged it out first, wasn't it because his family was in the North Court, so he was not in a hurry?

But no matter how anxious you are, you have to be anxious about the emperor.

"I know, I know!" Yelu Renxian was extremely impatient, turned his head and shouted: "Mingjin, Mingjin withdraws the troops." ”

No matter how reluctant he is, in addition to complaining in his mouth, Yeluren still has to do stupid things, and he still has to go back to Yanjing. At this time, if he drags it out, he will definitely not die well in the future.

This kind of thing, Yeluren knew it in advance, in the country of Daliao, if he could bear the slightest suspicion from the emperor, he would have an objection, and he would not die a good death.

If Yelu Ren was replaced by Yelu Yixin at this time, then maybe Yelu Yixin would really have to procrastinate. But Yelu Ren is not Yelu Yixin first, and he has never thought about it in his heart.

Hearing the words of the troops, several people who came to deliver the decree were relieved in their hearts, as long as they returned to help, they would be saved if they returned to Yanjing City.

The soldiers of the Liao State who had just gone up like a tide suddenly heard the sound of Mingjin, and hurriedly turned their heads and ran away, there was a feeling of amnesty, climbing the city wall is really not something that people do. It would be great if you didn't have to climb the walls.

And Di Yong, who heard such a sudden sound of gold, hurriedly ran out of the city tower, looking at the Liao army that was receding like a tide, his heart was immediately overjoyed, he knew that it must be Ganqi's side that succeeded, and the Liao army was leaving.

Di Yong suppressed the joy in his heart, staring at the Liao army in the distance, and sure enough, after the Liao army retreated, he began to pack up the camp tent and other things, and the carriage was full of food and other things.

Di Yong was overjoyed and shouted repeatedly: "Victory, we are victorious, Liaogou is going to pack up his things and run away." ”

Bursts of shouts erupted from the city walls, and everyone was happy that they had fought bravely and repelled the Liao army.

But no one thought about whether this battle was too simple, and everyone only felt that it was their own bravery that made the Liao army afraid and did not dare to attack the city.

But at this time, Di Yong suddenly became confused, what should I do next?

Just watching the Liao army retreat?

But if he led the troops to rush out, Di Yong looked at these men around him, if he really rushed out, the Liao army cavalry would be twenty or thirty thousand, and he would turn his head and charge, where would these men still be able to stop him?

What to do? Wait for the Liao army to retreat, and then go to occupy the surrounding cities?

And what about Big Brother Ganch?

Di Yong was entangled.

Fortunately, the person who helped him make the decision came.

"Di Xianggong, after the Liao army retreated, a team of knights suddenly rushed over from Dongcheng, saying that it was Di Xianggong's brother, and he was calling the door, and the brothers were afraid that they were spies, and they were hesitating to release the arrows, so go and take a look."

Someone came to Di Yong's side to report.

"Dongcheng? Go, go. Di Yong knew it in his heart and did not delay.

A few miles to the gate of the East City, Di Yong looked down, twenty or thirty rides, the style of the iron armor could not be more familiar.

"Who's coming?" Di Yong shouted.

"It's me, Zhou Tong, I came here after several big circles, open the door quickly."

It's not that the Liao army wants to leave, Zhou Tong still has to go around outside, and he can't get by.

"Open the door, open the door." Di Yong shouted.

Zhou Tong rushed into the city gate, and the city gate immediately closed again.

A letter was handed over to Di Yong himself, and Zhou Tong was fortunate not to be dishonored.

Di Yong quickly scanned the letter, and shouted: "Come on, come on, beat the drums, gather the generals, quick, summon all the generals to Xicheng." ”

This letter helped Di Yong make a decision, just wait for the Liao army to move, and immediately lead the army out of the city, take all the people who can be brought with them, and all go out of the city!
