Chapter 126: Two Factions

Although Yelu Jing is a good drinker and sleepy, and he usually doesn't care about national politics, he has heard of Yang Gon's name. Pro, Baidu search eye & fast, a large number of free looks. Especially in the recent days, the stingers and others have kept mentioning this person's name in front of him, as for the reason, it is very simple that they feel that Yang Gon's actions in the Central Plains a few days ago have merit!

It is also strange to say that although the Khitan has become a Confucian faction and a diehard, it is indeed a Confucian faction who likes to shout for a large-scale southward movement, perhaps this is also an alternative portrayal of "deep love and deep hate". Those old diehards were not very much in favor of a large-scale southward movement, but in order to maintain the deterrent effect of the Khitans, every winter, they would send some small groups of cavalry to disturb the south.

No matter what Yelu Jing's attitude was towards Yang Gon, he was still very happy when he suddenly heard another big country praise his general, especially in the mouth of the other emperor. Ma Yun is remote from the territory of more than 20 states in the Chu State, swallowing the south of the Yangtze River, how to say that he is also a respectable emperor.

Seeing Yelu Jing's joy, Yelu Tartlie, the king of the Southern Courtyard who had just returned to the New Year's Festival, also showed a smile in his eyes, and he said: "General Yang is just a general of my dynasty, but he is really good at fighting!" ”

As soon as his voice fell, he didn't expect that the Tai Lieutenant Gao Mohan beside him also spoke: "Although General Yang has military merits, he is just an ordinary general of our dynasty. ”

The content of what Yelu Tzulie and Gao Mohan said was similar, but the meaning of it was something that even the not very shrewd Ma Xixu felt was a little wrong. If these two people were to speak separately, Ma Xixu might not be able to detect the hidden meaning. The point is, the two men spoke too close to each other. Generally speaking, when talking, only someone is talking, out of politeness, other people will not interject rashly, if you insist on interjecting, there are only three possibilities, excited or the relationship is too good, I didn't hold back for a while; the second is to interject that this person has a relatively high status and is a leader; In the end, the two people who interjected and the two people who spoke did not deal with each other, which belonged to turning a blind eye and ignoring each other.

One is the Tai Lieutenant, the other is the King of the Southern Courtyard, the two of them have high and low positions, but the gap is very small, one is the counselor of the whole ** team, and the other is the real power of the Governor of Yanyun Sixteen Prefectures; In terms of the relationship with the emperor, the king of the Southern Courtyard must be a cronie in the imperial family, of course, he can be a lieutenant, and the relationship between this person and the emperor will not be too far. From this point of view, the status of these two people is basically equal, one speaks, the other interjects, obviously belongs to not buying each other. Ma Xicao's meaning of the two speaks, because Ma Xicao first said "Our boss thinks Yang Gon this guy is good", based on the good relationship between Chu and Khitan now, Yelu Tart Lie and Gao Mohan will definitely not refute it face-to-face and make a mistake in the line, but on the other hand, it can't be because of the praise of Chu State, our Khitan has to be impressed with Yang Gon, even if Yang Gon really has the ability, he can't be promoted now, and he will be promoted after the envoy of Chu State leaves, and then he will be promoted after this matter calms down, otherwise, The effect is broken. Whether you are promoted or not is not up to you Chu people to decide, this matter belongs to our Khitan internal affairs.

However, the focus of the two people's words is different, Yelu Tart Lie first said that Yang Gon is an ordinary person, and then said that he has made great contributions, which is obviously praising Yang Gon, while Gao Mohan first said that Yang Gon has merit, which seems to be a compliment, but then it was immediately classified as an ordinary category, which should be praise and derogation.

Even Ma Xixu, a newcomer, noticed that the two people talking on the other side did not deal with each other, let alone Tian Yu, who had been in the Khitan for a long time. Tian Yu was accustomed to such disputes, and he turned to Yelu Jing and said, "Hehe, my Imperial Majesty is sincerely pleased that His Majesty has such a good general under his command. The strength of the Khitan is not a curse for Da Chu, but a blessing. Only when our two countries unite can we completely solve our common adversary. ”

Gao Mohan seemed to have a lot of opinions about Tian Yu, he snorted coldly and said, "Great Zhou is just a threat to your country. For us Khitan, Da Zhou is not a disaster! ”

Tian Yu smiled and said: "People who have no long-term concerns must have near-term worries. The Khitan controls the sixteen states of Yanyun, which is equivalent to controlling the gate of the pseudo-Zhou. The door of the house, the door of the house, even the people in the house who have lost the door, can they still sleep comfortably? ”

"Hmph. After the Great Zhou is broken, the sixteen states of Yanyun are still in the hands of our Khitan, according to Your Excellency's theory, by that time, your country and our Khitan will not be enemies? Since the Great Zhou has been destroyed and there is the Great Chu, why should we Khitan do these useless things? Gao Mohan said.

Tian Yu has been in the Khitan for two or three years, why has he not been able to persuade the Khitan army to go south? Gao Mohan's words reveal the real reason. The Khitan's attitude towards the Central Plains made a big reversal during the Kaiyun period of the Later Jin Dynasty. Since the end of the Tang Dynasty, the Central Plains was weak, and the Khitan gradually went southward ambitions, which reached its peak in the Kaiyun years, and at the end of the third year of the Kaiyun, the Khitan lord Yelu Deguang finally entered Bianjing, and arrived at the emperor of China in a few days, but, only three months later, the Central Plains reversed, and the Khitan people retreated in a hurry. Since then, the attitude of the Khitan people towards the Central Plains has taken a 10-degree turn, and when Yelu Deguang's mother heard the news of Yelu Deguang's death, her first reaction was not sadness, but angry scolding Yelu Deguang, you kid don't listen to the old man, let you not go to the Central Plains, you just want to go, what is the result? Hung up! From then on, the Khitans agreed with going south to fight the grass valley, but not many people agreed with the large-scale southward movement like Yelu Deguang.

Think about how Yelu Wuxu died, he just wanted to follow Yelu Deguang, in the name of the restoration of the Han State to recruit troops to the south, but the army has not been sorted out, was killed by the Khitan nobles, of course, Wu Desire is not normal to the throne, he is Yelu Deguang's nephew, Yelu Deguang died in the Central Plains, the old queen wanted to set up Yelu Deguang's son Yelu Jing, but he didn't expect that the Wu Desire who served by Yelu Deguang's side integrated the army and established himself as the king, the two sides fought a battle in Yanshan, Wu wanted to win, he locked up his own grandmother. Since the death of Yelu Deguang, there has been no conflict between the Khitan and the Central Plains with even a thousand people, which shows the Khitan's attitude towards going south.

However, as time went on, the young people gradually grew up. The old generals naturally had scruples about going south, but young men like Yelu Tartlie were eager to go south, and they wanted to rob wealth and establish merit by going south. As a result, there was a murmur within the Khitan.

But the power is still in the hands of the old guys, what Tian Yu has to do is to provide Yelu Tart Lie and them with a better excuse and create better public opinion. Tian Yu said with a smile: "For my Great Chu, the battle to destroy the Zhou is to avenge the country, as for the land, we are still willing to share it with the Great Han, don't say Yanyun, even if it is Xiongzhou and other places, my Great Chu will never set foot in it!" ”

Yelu Tzulie's eyes lit up, but Gao Mohan was indifferent.
