Chapter 187 speaks of peace

Shangjing was burned to the ground, and the princes and ministers were killed and injured countless times. ?? ? When this terrible news reached Yanshan, Yelu Jing, who was hunting, was furious, and he personally took action at that time and chopped an elk that had just been captured into meat sauce. There are two palace deer keepers who see this elk's posture and size are the best choice for captivity. As soon as they had spoken out to refute the elk, they were ordered to be killed by the furious Jelujing, and they became fools for unknown reasons.

The killing of the deer keeper made the guards around Yelujing silent, and they just followed Yelujing in a daze, not daring to say a word, and watched Yelujing walk around irritably beside the beheaded elk. Everyone is scared and uneasy, but they don't dare to do anything!

At this moment, two fast horses galloped in the distance. Yelu Jing subconsciously glanced at it, it was actually Gao Mohan and Gao Xun. Yelu Jing went south to hunt, and naturally he had to be followed by some ministers of personal defense. Gao Mohan originally wanted to recommend Yelu Wuqian, the king of the North Courtyard, to accompany the king, while he stayed in Beijing. And Yelu Wu took into account that Yanshan was very close to the front line, and the emperor was called hunting, in fact, once the war was unfavorable, it would definitely be to stay in the army to boost morale. Yelu Wu is not particularly proficient in military affairs, and if he goes with him, he may not be able to mention the emperor to come up with any countermeasures, but Gao Mohan is different, that is, during the Taizong period, Gao Mohan is also a first-class famous general, and it is much more suitable for him to be by the emperor's side.

Yelu Jing saw that Gao Mohan was coming, and paused. Gao Mohan rolled the saddle and dismounted, and said, "Weichen see Your Majesty!" Gao Mohan peeked at Yelu Jing, and saw that the emperor who loved to drink had a gloomy face, and he was still carrying a sword with blood in his hand, and there was a bloody thing at his feet. He was shocked in his heart, obviously realizing that His Majesty the Emperor was already very angry, and even Gao Mohan had to be cautious, lest His Majesty the Emperor be angry with him.

"Gao Aiqing, have you heard about the tragedy in Shangjing?" Yelu Jing said angrily. Obviously, His Majesty the Emperor still hasn't woken up from his astonishment and rage.

"Yes, the minister has heard of it! The Zhou army actually attacked our royal capital and sat down to do such a heinous deed, Weichen thought that my Khitan must react immediately and retaliate against the Zhou army! Gao Mohan said unequivocally. He was dealing with the matter as soon as he got the news. Regardless of the safety of the queen, King Yan, etc., the burning of the capital is actually a great shame for the Khitan state. This matter must not be left unattended.

"Report!" A fast horse galloped again, and the rider didn't have time to hold the reins, so he jumped off the horse, walked in front of Yelu Jing in three steps and two steps, knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, His Royal Highness King Yan has an urgent recital!" ”

Hearing the news of King Yan, Yelujing's angry expression was actually calmer, he hurriedly stepped forward, dragged Yeluxian's recital and opened it, and said, "Hey! Fortunately, King Yan is fine! "Although this guy is a drunkard, there must always be an heir to the throne of the Khitan Emperor, since he has taken a fancy to Yeluxian and raised Yeluxian since he was a child, this feeling is still quite deep. It's just that in Ye Luxian's opinion, his uncle is far less important than the queen.

Gao Mohan and Gao Xun were also relieved. The emperor had no heirs, which caused King Song and others to be enthusiastic about the throne, and there was a rebellion within the royal family a few years ago. Now that King Yan has escaped from Shangjing, it is simply a great luck in misfortune.

"What do you think we should do now?" Jerejin asked.

Gao Xun glanced at Gao Mohan, but Gao Mohan lowered his eyelids as if he was thinking about a way. So, Gao Xu said: "Your Majesty, our main forces are concentrated in Shannan, and some of them are controlled by Murowei in Tokyo Province after all, and the area around Shangjing is already empty. And the Zhou army that attacked me in Beijing must be a cavalry unit, and now there is a lot of grass and water on the grassland, and if you use the method of sleepiness, if you have a small army, you will not be able to trap the enemy at all. If we have a lot of troops, we don't have that many troops. ”

Seeing that Yelujing nodded, Gao Xun continued: "However, the Zhou army is not early or late, but they came to Shangjing at this time, presumably they want our army in Shannan to divide their troops to the north and give the Zhou army an opportunity. In Weichen's opinion, we might as well take the plan. Let Marshal Tartlie lead the army north. As soon as our Shannan army moves, the enemy will inevitably think that the sneak attack on Shangjing has been successful, and our army will be uneasy, he will definitely take this opportunity to fight a decisive battle with our army, and we will fight to the death with them under the city of Nanjing! ”

Gao Xun's method is not unusual. To put it mildly, it is a typical broken jar and broken, anyway, my Khitan is a tribal type in the north, and I follow the water and grass. There are only a few small cities such as Shangjing. I don't want these cities, I will deal with the main force of the Zhou army first, and defeat the main force of the Zhou army, then the Zhou army near Shangjing will become a rootless wanderer, and sooner or later it will have to fall into my own hands.

Gao Xun had a good idea, but unfortunately it was obviously not in line with Yelu Jing's intentions. Yelu Jing frowned and turned to look at Gao Mohan. Why doesn't Jeregen agree? Gao Xun is purely from the perspective of war to interpret how this battle should be fought, but Yelu Jing can't help but consider the reaction of the Khitan people, especially the Khitan nobles to the Shangjing tragedy. I am afraid that the military spirit of Shannan will not be stable at all, and the Khitan army must have asked to go north to save their families. Besides, there is one biggest difference between Gao Xun's thoughts and Yelu Jing's thoughts, the two people have different understandings of Shannan. Gao Xun thought that Shannan could not be lost, while Yelu Jing felt that Shannan was not the land of the Khitan, and the area around Shangjing was the place of the Khitan's henchmen. I was stabbed in the heart a few times, who can bear it!

"Right Minister, what do you think?" Seeing that Gao Mohan was silent and didn't speak, Yelu Jing couldn't help but ask. He has never been a person with a particularly city government, and when he encounters such a major event, the Khitan army is a little careless, and he also wants to listen to the advice of his courtiers.

Gao Mohan is much more mature than Gao Xun. Gao Xun's analysis seems to be right, the Zhou army is deliberately sneaking up on us, wanting us to divide our troops, and then he will take advantage of the chaos to attack. However, just like playing chess, the Zhou army sneaked into Shangjing and had already won the first move. You are now mobilizing the Khitan army to make the illusion of going north, but the Zhou army has such a big appetite this time, and it is unusually meticulous in its actions, once he sees through the fact that our army is going north is fake, and his army does not move, then our plan to mobilize the Zhou army and our decisive battle will be completely frustrated. At that point, what are we going to do? Or do you not divide the army? You let the Khitan soldiers die and come back to life, forgetting the fact that their backyard is on fire, it's okay for a day or two, but if the Zhou army drags on for ten days and half a month, what will you do? When the time comes, the military situation will be turbulent, and if you can't get it, there will be a military mutiny.

In Gao Mohan's view, there are only two things to do now: how to reassure the Khitan up and down, and how to mobilize the main force of the Zhou army in Shannan for a decisive battle. Urging Tart Lie to attack Zhuozhou and fight siege warfare with the enemy is obviously not in the interests of the Khitan. If the troops are divided, the Zhou army is not easy to mess with, what if after the division of troops, the Khitan army in Shannan is defeated? Keep the Shannan army still, but the Zhou army in Shangjing is like a no-man's land, killing people everywhere and setting fires, and it is impossible for him to sit idly by.

Gao Mohan had a headache, he thought for a long time, the best way was to transfer the army that had conquered Murowei back to Shangjing from Tokyo Road. Then from the northwest of the extreme west, the Recruiting Division will mobilize the tribal army from there. But these two methods will drag on for a long time, and they can't be done without ten days and half a month. For such a long period of time, it was enough for the Zhou army to completely destroy the Khitan's henchmen. When the time comes, the crowd will be in turmoil, whether it is Yelu Tart Lie or himself, he will not be able to eat and walk away.

Gao Mohan was fascinated, and Gao Xun on the side secretly touched himself, Gao Mohan was excited, and raised his eyes to see Yelujing looking at him with an earnest face, Gao Mohan hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, Weichen has given a gift." ”

Yelu Jing rarely had no temper, and he asked, "Right Minister, have you ever come up with any clever plan?" When Yelu Jing said this, Gao Xun's face became a little unnatural, and the emperor obviously meant that what he had just done was not a clever plan.

Gao Mohan shook his head and said, "Your Majesty, the biggest problem at the moment is that the far water is not close to thirst, and there are too few troops that we can use immediately. ”

"yes!" Jeregen sighed.

"Your Majesty, since there is no army, we can't watch the activities of the Zhou army in the area of Shangjing this week. If the division of troops is not appropriate, then it is better to transfer our army back from Nanjing, once our main force returns to the army, the Zhou army in Shangjing can only escape! At that point, let's go south again. ”

"It's definitely not a good idea!" Gao Mohan denied: "If our army goes north, the people and officials in Shannan will inevitably think that our army is defeated, and in this way, those Han generals will probably turn against the water, and the land in Shannan will no longer belong to our Khitan." ”

"That... So what does Gao Xiang think should be handled? Seeing that he had an idea, Gao Mohan denied one, and Gao Xun was also a little angry.

"I... I think you can also ask the opinions of the front-line generals on this matter, after all, they are on the Shannan front and know more about the situation of the main force of the Zhou army. If you can fight, you will fight, and if you can't fight, you can only make peace for the time being. ”

"Peace?" Yelu Jing was stunned, this word has always been used by the Central Plains Dynasty, how could it be used on the heads of the Khitans? Yelu Jing glanced at Gao Mohan, but saw a smile suddenly appear on the corner of Gao Mohan's mouth. He asked, "Right Prime Minister, have you come up with any solution?" ”
